Re-enacters skirmish at Columbus Belmont Civil War Days.
Columbus Belmont Park at the far western end of Kentucky will once again echo to cannon and bugle blasts as the annual recreation of a battle fought across the Mississippi between the forces of U. S. Grant and General Leonidas Polk.
Beginning Friday evening with a sunset cannon salute over the Mississippi, the three day event will conclude with a final skirmish between Union and Confederate forces.
