Confederate period, the re-building of the fort after the War Between the States, and the men and women who served or lived there. Weapons, tools, uniforms, amusements, household items and even toys show how the people worked, lived and played. There is a replica of a telegraph outpost with a working telegraph key. Children may try on a few uniforms and other clothing and crawl into a small pup tent in one of several hands- on exhibits. They can punch a button to hear an Apache tell about his people in his own language. To truly appreciate this carefully crafted new attraction, one must experi- ence it. Go see it for yourself!
