Each battle will last less than an hour. We will supply
water for both troops and horses. Hay, wood, port-a-poties
and ice. There will be period stores available.
Union troops will be camped in and by the old fort at
the Nature Center about 200 yards from the main
battlefield while the Confederates will be camped about
100 yards north of the battlefield. The area is right
along side the Missouri River. The city of St. Joseph
will spray for bugs.
Synopsis:
Saturday, Union supply train leaves Ft. Smith in St.
Joseph, heading north along the Missouri River.
Confederate troops attack the supply train. Union forces
repel the attack.
Sunday, Confederates attack again and take control of
the supply train.
