Fairhaven Village Militia


From June through September, a re-enactor from the Fairhaven Village Militia mans Fort Phoenix on Thursday afternoons from 1:00 to 4:00 p.m. On some Friday afternoons in July and August historical presentations may be given between 1:00 and 3:00 p.m

Portraying colonial men, women, and children, the members of the Fairhaven Village Militia talk to visitors about the history of the fort and about life during the Revolutionary War period. Flintlock musket firing demonstrations are given on the afternoons when the militia is on duty.

The Fairhaven Village Militia also holds Historical Encampments at Fort Phoenix.
