bicentennial of Lewis-Clar- k ON THE MISSOURI RIVER (AP) — sunset light gleaming on his the young man in the military uniform pushes the canoe against a current as determined as the passing of time There’s a camp knife at his waist tucked into the red sash that is a sign of captain’s rank — and the captain is smiling as he launches into an old boat song It’s one Lewis and Clark’s oarsmen might have sung when they passed this point near St Louis “Haul away” he sings loudly to the rhythm of the stroke “Haul away boys " Bluffs thick ' with woods like the ones they saw swallow the sound Scott Mandrcll portraying Meriwether Lewis has his height and the same dark hair flecked withgray Most of all he has the bearing of a leader — even though he knows it’s going to be ' tricky to complete the job he and the other mem-bo- s of a living-histor- y group arc undertaking They plan to retrace the expedition of Meriwether Lewis and William Clark during its bicentennial which officially kicked off in Janu ary at Thomas Jefferson’s home Monticello in Virginia The things Lewis and Clark band — a few dozen did with their white men a black slave an American Indian woman and her infant and the rest — have long inspired admiration but on this 200th anniversary they’re getting extra attention Millions arc paying tribute to the Corps of Discovery and in remarkable ways Later this year for instance Mandrcll plans to start on horseback from the White House and with other members of his group continue aboard boats and on foot all the way to Oregon’s Pacific coast as the real Lewis and Clark did Even now it’s a long arduous trip — and yet AP photo Bruce Running Crane a member of the Blackfeet Nation from Browning Mont holds his hand over his heart during the Pledge of Allegiance at ceremonies

historian Stephen Ambrose called it How can we “remeifiber” something that is so much a part of our national identity? An incalculable part of what we are as a nation — of the size and strength we have and of the burdens we carry — followed and to some extent flowed from Lewis and Clark's long trip Before Lewis and Clark European nations See EXPLORE on C2 to Pacflc Ocean wtti many events rtFort v Clatsop National Memorial JUNE 7 2006 LAPWAI IDAHO Commemomlon sponsored ty tie Ns Events along the ? 14-1- ByTha Associated Press V-1 k Many events wfll mark lha 200th annlverv saiy of the Lewis and Clark expedition Below are8ignature events (tiiTnatod by tie National Council of the Biatotenniul JAN 18 2003 CHARLOTTESVILLE VA Inaugural ceremony at MontfceBa - OCT 14-2- 6 2003 LOUISVILLE KY AND CLARKSVILLE INDt ' MAY 3 Festival mat king expedition it I 2004 ST CHARI b MO as started west - JULY 3-- 4 meeting between expedfticn and Otoe and Missouria tribes AUG 2728 2004 OACOMA AND V T?ov ?
