Tanner Friedman, Community Contributor

Hear cannons roar and the echo of war cries as Confederate and Union

military re-enactors bring the history of the Civil War and tumultuous 1860s to

life. On Sunday, Oct. 6 from 10 a.m. – 3 p.m., at the Wolcott Mill Metropark

Historic Center, near Romeo, families will travel to the past to experience

life during the Civil War. Participants will watch re-enactors portray a

portion of the Battle of Missionary Ridge (at 2 p.m.), see military camps,

skirmishes and military drills, among others. This program is intended for ages

six years and older. This event is $3 for adults and $1 for children. For more
