You can view video #2 August 18 at:
   • 2024 Canton Civil War Days: #2 August 18  

Both videos show the overall event setup – vendors, entertainment, food service, battlefield, and Union and Confederate camps. The year 2024 is the second year for this event in Canton, and the event is growing. The organizers obviously put a lot of effort into the organizing and preparations.

They have an excellent big (alfalfa) field on which to stage skirmishes and mock battles, with easy viewing by spectators. And the campsites for many of the reenactors were in a deep woods with a wonderful water course, Beaver Creek, running along the perimeter. What a great place to camp.
