Battle of Island No. 10 - Civil War Re-enactment

On Friday, February 15 through Saturday the 17th, Lake County hosted the first re-enactment of the Battle of Island #10. The re-enactment took place at the Reelfoot Airpark Inn, north of Tiptonville. The 15th Tennessee Infantry, known as the Madrid Bend Guards, hosted the unit. The re-enactment was a prelude to a celebration and unique water-based re-enactment scheduled for 2012, the 150th Anniversary of the historic battle.
