Currently, four contingents of the Bicentennial Wagon Train Pilgrimage to Pennsylvania are on the road. The covered wagons are authentic replicas of the ones that carried pioneer families in an earlier time. Each train includes a Conestoga Wagon and a chuck wagon from the Com­ monwealth of Pennsylvania, sponsor of the official Bicen­ tennial project, Prairie Schooners representing the various states, plus a number of privately-owned wagons. The largest train on the road reached Truth or Con­ sequences, New Mexico on Feb. 24. It started rolling in Southern California on New Year's day with wagons from California and Hawaii and since then has been joined by Arizona and New Mexico wagons. The trains will all converge on Valley Forge on July 3 and remain in encampment there for three mdhths. The wagons are carrying scrolls on which thousands of citizens have repledged their commitment to the principles on which the nation was founded. Wagon Train outriders, volunteer horsemen from the North American Trail Ride Conference and many other riding groups, are branching out to communities not on the mail trails to receive additional scrolls. Encampments each evening along the trail give people in host communities a chance to meet the wagoneers, look over the wagons, watch the feeding and grooming of the horses, and see the Wagon Train show, which is produced by Penn­ sylvania State University's Departments of Theatre and Music. In most communities, local dance groups, bands and other entertainers augment the of­ ficial show. The wagons are rolling with the cooperation and support of a National Equine Advisory council, which represents the nation's organized horsemen. The American . Revolution Bicentennial Administration (ARBA) has designated the Wagon Train pilgrimage to Pennsylvania as a national Bicentennial event.
