Bent's Fort Holiday Celebration
December 4th - 5th

"We take our scouts every winter to coincide with the re-inactment at Bent's Old Fort. This is a great planning event the first weekend of December."

Witness for yourself the joys, pleasures and pastimes of the 1840s at an isolated trading post. The spirit of the season comes alive with wagon rides, games, toy making and other holiday festivities. The event begins Friday evening December 4th with candlelight tours of the fort. For reservations for the evening tours, call Bent's Old Fort at (719) 383-5026 after October 16, 2009.
