 Huntersville Traditions Day is a way to step back in time and enjoy the Appalachian Culture by taking part in demonstrations of some of the lst arts that have disappeared through the decades.
Visitors have the opportunity to tour the Huntersville School, Presbyterian and Methodist Church, Jail, Civil War Cemetery and enjoy the history throughout the Huntersville Community. Al Stone, who impersonates Robert E. Lee, will have a program at the Presbyterian Church on Friday evening, October 5th and he will be around on Saturday October 6th to visit the community and commemorate the Anniversary of the Civil War. You can also take a walking tour or catch a horse and buggy to enjoy making apple butter, make ice cream, spin wool, cane chairs, grind coffee, watch soap being made, listen to Beatrix Potter's story, start a hit and miss engine, take a pony ride, help make sorghum, keep in tune with the cloggers, practice muzzle leading, let the children play old time games, visit the old time post office, enjoy a cup of cider, tap your foot to mountain mussic and watch corn meal being ground.
You can stop at the jail and pick up a Pocahontas County history book, check out the old tool wagon and enjoy a wonderful meal at the Methodist Church. Make a visit to the lunch room at the school and step back in time with Laura Ingalls and enjoy the quilt display.
What a wonderful weekend in Huntersville WV of stepping back in time when life was simple and our traditions began.
