Welcome to Davidson's Fort!
The building of a
replica of Davidson's Fort has been underway since 2004
by a small dedicated group of visionaries. Grants have been received
and used to build what is now present on Lackey Town Road next to
Janesville Acoustics. No town or county funds have been received
during this building project. Help the fort project by

Sponsor.

We are so close to completing the actual fort but are in need of
funds to continue. Please consider donating whatever amount you feel
comfortable with, we also are in need of lumber, wood shingles,
Locust Logs and much more. Below you can see our schedule for 2011.
Our aim is to complete the palisades and chinking the block house
within the next few months. With your help we can do it!
