Happy Summer Everyone! Fort Fetterman will be open from Memorial Day to Labor Day. Our hours of operation this year are Tuesday through Saturday 9:00am-5:00pm.

Fort Fetterman has a lot going on this summer. We have three major events out at the Fort. July 4th will be the annual “Fetterman Days” event. This event is held on July 4th and the Friends of Ft. Fetterman group serves up a free pancake breakfast. There will also be re-enactors, vendors and great time at the Fort this day. Come celebrate with us!

Also this year is the 150th Anniversary of Ft. Fetterman. The Fort will celebrate July 14, 15, 16 with events happening each day. Stay tuned for more details as they come available.

Ft. Fetterman will also be open on August 21st for the Eclipse. Ft. Fetterman is in the path of this great universal event. Come watch the Eclipse at the Fort. State Fees for entrance will apply. Also, watch our website for updates related to what we have planned out at the Fort during the day of the Eclipse.
