Fort Verde Experience life through the eyes of a frontier sol-dier at Fort Verde State Historic Park March 30th, 2019 from 11:30 a.m to 3 p.m. The fort was a base for General Crook’s U.S. Army scouts and sol-diers in the 1870s and 1880s. From 1865 – 1891, Camp Lincoln, Camp Verde and Fort Verde were home to officers, doctors, families, enlisted men, and scouts. The park is the best-preserved example of an Indian Wars period fort in Arizona. Sever-al of the original buildings still stand and living history programs are scheduled periodically, giv-

ing visitors a glimpse into Arizona’s history. Today visitors can experience three historic house museums, all furnished in the 1880s period, that are listed on the National and State Register of Historic Places. The former Administration building houses the Visitor Center with interpretive exhibits, period artifacts from military life, and history on the Indian Scouts and Indian Wars era. The park offers picnic tables, restrooms, RV and tour bus parking, and is ADA Accessible.Entry fees are $7.00 for Adults (14+), $4.00 for Youth (7-13), and FREE for Children (0-6).

April Fool’s DayAlthough a commonly celebrated occurrence all around the world, the exact origin of April Fool’s Day can only be speculated about. Many say Geoffrey Chaucer’s “The Canterbury Tales” was the first time April 1st was used in order to play pranks and tricks. Others say April 1st became a day of silliness after the Council of Trent occurred in 1563. France had been using the Julian calendar and decided to change to Gregorian. Seeing as news didn’t get around very easily in this time period, many people were unaware of the change. To them, January 1st was not yet the new year. People would celebrate the new year through the end of March and into April 1st which marked April fools as a day of foolishness and fun. Have a favor-ite April Fool’s Day Prank? We’d like to hear about it! Email it to us at rvnewspaper@elks.net.
