The Fremont Pathfinders are a non-profit fully insured group. Our members come from all walks of life teachers, health care professionals, law enforcement officers a mix of everything. The one trait we all share is a passion for history and the will to try and share our knowledge with others. We accomplish this in school presentations, public displays and battle reenactments.
Pathfinder members portray Artillery, Infantry and Cavalry impressions Union or Confederate as the event dictates.
