2008 Events

 

      The Pipestone Civil War Days are a celebration of our past in a beautiful historic setting. We will have a number of exciting activities in 2008: battle skirmishes, educational programs, quilting bees, etiquette and ballroom dance lessons, camp tours, children's games, Sunday morning church services, a live Civil War band, the Grand Ball and much more!  Soldiers and civilians invite you to share some of the flavor of the 1860's with them. Plan to join us in historic Pipestone, Minnesota for all the activities. Please visit our website again for the latest information. We look forward to seeing you in 2008!
