Lots of information and pictures of previous events at http://www.americanlibertyfestival.com/ (but turn down your speaker volume)  I attended a similar event by the same folks in Queen Creek last fall, and it was awesome!

Our 3rd American Liberty Festival will be held February 21st & 22nd in Phoenix, Arizona at the property of Northwest Christian School (16401 N. 43rd Ave., just south of Bell Rd.) This inspirational event will be a multi-dimensional immersion experience for all ages into the era of the American Revolution and the Founding Fathers as together we experienced the birth of the United States through military encampments and training (both American and British!), live period music, fashion show, civilian demonstrations as per circa 1776, battle reenactments, training with wooden muskets and meeting famous Americans such as General George Washington.

Friday, Feb. 21st is private and will be open ONLY for public, private and charter school groups with advance reservations.
