One of the Midwest's premier Revolutionary War reenactments occurs Memorial Day weekend at the site of the foremost American victory throughout the frontier. This reenactment, known as the Rendezvous, is sponsored annually by the Spirit of Vincennes, Inc. Since the late 1970s, the citizens of Vincennes, IN; the reenactors of the Northwest Territory Alliance (NWTA); and the employees of the George Rogers Clark National Historical Park (NHP) have collaborated to present this distinguished 18th century historical gathering. The event's popularity is such that it attracts 400 to 500 reenactors along with an estimated 35,000 visitors.
