“Paddling Back on Lewis & Clark Path” was a headline in a recent Warren County Record article. “We are part of something on a national scale” said Al Puknat, one of three local re-enactors planning to come down the Missouri this September to arrive at La Charrette on September 20, just as did the Corps of Discovery 200 years ago. Puknat is joined by Darrell Dinger and Joe Tesson in this adventure. The three local men, as members of the St. Charles Corps of Discovery, have worked diligently for 10 years on plans and construction of a beautiful 20-foot, 41-inch cedar boat to be employed for the occassion.
Join in the excitement! Be at the La Charrette village site, near present day Marthasville, Missouri, for their arrival this September.
