Palo Alton National Park in Brownsville holds a Mexican-American War re-enactment once a month.

The re-enactment for April is taking place Saturday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Re-enactors perform weapon demonstrations and give talks over the Mexican-American War.

They wear clothing from that era as well.

The park has dedicated one day out of each month since December 2011 for this event.

The last planned re-enactment will be held May 5.

This living history program is free to the public and everyone in the community is encouraged to attend.

For more information call the park at (956)541-2785.
