Have you ever wondered what it was like to be an outlaw gunner?
During the 55th Waterfowl Festival, step back in time to 1928 for a special reenactment at the Historical Society!

Join Easton Gazette reporter Hank Goldsborough as he interviews Ducky Marshall, an outlaw gunner navigating life on the Chesapeake Bay ten years after the passage of the Migratory Bird Treaty Act (1918). Learn about a time when attitudes toward waterfowl hunting and conservation were evolving, and discover the stories behind this fascinating chapter of our region’s history.

Historical Society reenactors Don Casson and Mike Mielke return to reprise their roles in this lively, historically inspired interview. Don’t miss this chance to experience the Chesapeake Bay’s past brought to life!

Our other exhibits will be open 10:00am to 3:00pm all weekend.
