Bushy Run Battlefield sets reopening date

JEANNETTE, Pa. — A historical park in Westmoreland County that shut down after an EF-1 tornado tore through is about to reopen.

Bushy Run Battlefield on Facebook said it’s reopening on Sept. 10.

The battlefield has been closed since late June, when a tornado knocked down a “significant number of trees” across the 200-acre property, leading to massive clean-up efforts. The park had to cancel its annual Bushy Run Battle reenactment because of the damage.
