There are many theories, stories, knowledge, and unknowns with Serpent Mound. The Friends of Serpent Mound started this festival as a way for the public to share and learn about the many facets of Serpent Mound. Our speakers vary from locals, historians, Indigenous Americans, Scientists, Spiritualist, and more. The focus is Serpent Mound and the surrounding area. The local history, the uniqueness, the wildlife, and its ecology.
