Begun in 2001, the Civil War Living History independent study class “Lobo Mess” at Rocky allows high school students to take an active role in and present Civil War era living history. In the time that it has existed, the RMHS students that have been involved with the program have presented to well over 10,000 persons. Venues have included elementary schools, civic organizations, home school groups, television, museums, national parks, Colorado state parks, parades and battle reenactments.
