The Mormon Battalion Marches Again

 

... FFNHA Hyperportal ... Mormon Battalion - Trek 2008-2009

• By Paul D Lyman and Kristin Winterton

  MBT-2008 DGCO Willow Springs WOK

   

It all started when Kevin Henson’s 11-year-old Boy Scout patrol took part in a “living history event” in Bay City, Michigan, in 2002.

The Bay County Historical Society hosts an annual event along the Saginaw River called “The River of Time.”

Reenactors from all time periods are invited — from archaic Indians, French voyageurs, Revolutionary War, Civil War, all the way up to the Gulf War.

 

In 2002, Henson’s scouts reenacted the role of the Mormon Battalion, thereby representing the Mexican-American War.

Their participation has now become a staple of the “River of Time” and has grown in numbers and scope to include about 50-60 local members of the Church and community.
