We invite your children to journey back in time to explore the daily pleasures and challenges of pioneer life. This unique, hands-on camp provides immersive experiences where learning is fun! Some of the activities include pioneer games and crafts, food gathering and preparation, cooking, candle-making, sewing, chores on the farm, and more.
