WHISKEY FLAT DAYS, Kernville, California, USA
The 2011 Whiskey Flat Days will be held February 18-21.
It is the 54th Annual and the theme is "Goin' To The Dogs".
This is a family event for everyone who is interested in the
history of the Wild West in the United States. The time period
is the 1850's to early 1860's. All parade entries feature the
annual theme. Much like other theme festivals, you are
encouraged to dress the part. There are gunfighters, Indians
and scruffy mountain men. Kids can explore the carnival,
watch the Rodeo or visit the Indian encampment and learn
to shoot a bow and arrow! The Whiskey Flat Encampment,
across from the Rodeo, takes you back in time, with period
correct living quarters, story telling and activities. Downtown
Kernville features an Epitaph Contest, Frog Jumpin' Contest,
Whiskerino Contest, vendors, music and more! For a schedule
of the Whiskey Flat Encampment reenactment activities go to
