Texian Heritage Festival Oct. 18 to benefit MCEA

MONTGOMERY COUNTY, Texas -- Plans are underway to bring Texas history to life during the 2014 Texian Heritage Festival on October 18! And, this year's event is set to be bigger and better than ever before, so SAVE THE DATE and make plans now to bring lots of friends and neighbors with you.

You won't want to miss the dozens of reenactors converging on Fernland Historical Park in Montgomery, including the Texian Heritage Army and Encampment. Guests will be entertained with Texas Revolution era cannon fire, army camp live, equestrian (cavalry) demonstrations, and reenactments showing the significance of the flags of the Texas Revolution, along with the history of the Lone Star Flag.

At this year's festival, you'll be able to capture a glimpse of the living history of Texas, and there will be FUN for kids and adults of all ages, including Frontier-Style Children's Activities!

Admission is $3, and it's FREE for children 5 and under. Also FREE Parking!
