The event is scheduled for Feb. 11 at the Rancho Camulos National Historic Landmark, near Piru, at 2 p.m., according to a news release.
“This reenactment commemorates author Helen Hunt Jackson’s Jan. 23, 1882 visit that inspired her to make this California Rancho one of the settings for her novel ‘Ramona,” according to the news release.
Jackson’s novel, published in 1884, tells the story of the titular Ramona, a Scots-Native American orphan who falls in love with a Native American worker who lives on the ranch where she lives.
The story focuses on the mistreatment of Native Americans and has been adapted to film several times.
“Re-enactors will engage and delight you as they portray this event which forever changed the peaceful life at Rancho Camulos,” the news release said. “One of the
highlights of this year’s event will be the appearance of actress Kayla Contreras, who currently stars as Ramona in the Hemet Ramona Outdoor Pageant.”
The event will cost $5 for adults, and children 12 and under are free.

Rancho Camulos Museum is located on Highway 126, 10 miles west of the I-5 and one mile east of Piru.
