Lindbergh Fiddlers Perform at Feast of the Hunters’ Moon

The Sperreng Fiddlers group travelled to Northern Indiana last month to participate in the 18th century reenactment.

The Sperreng Fiddlers group, which includes Sperreng and Truman middle school students, and Lindbergh High School fiddler alums, travelled to Northern Indiana last month to participate in the 44th annual Feast of the Hunters’ Moon, as seen on the Lindbergh School District website.

Forty-seven students and their families made the trip to the feast, which is an 18th century reenactment that drew more than 25,000 people daily.

The Fiddlers performed for two days at the feast and explored the nearly 200 vendors spreads over 30 acres of the Fort Ouiatenon grounds. The group also played for residents at a nearby senior center.
