America's 400th Anniversary celebrations, taking place throughout the country in 2007, have just gained a major historical VIP, an important new event and a whole lot of fun! Gloucester, Virginia, near 1607 Jamestown, announced it is hosting America's first-ever "Pocahontas Family Festival," Saturday and Sunday, June 2 and 3, to celebrate the world's most famous Indian Princess, who was born in what is now Gloucester. The festival features a living Native American village, a replica of John Smith's boat, the unveiling of a giant mural honoring Pocahontas and a themed street chalk contest. It is free, takes place rain or shine, and is for all children and adults. (PRWeb May 14, 2007)
