About
Take advantage of the great outdoors before fall is over, and winter hits!
Get out and explore the leaf covered grounds of the historic site as you unleash your inner explorer! Navigate around the beautiful fall surroundings at the historic site in search of the objects needed to complete your list. This fun and inexpensive day is the perfect excuse to get out of the house – you’ll check in with a staff member, get your list, and work together to collect items, answer questions, and solve a couple of riddles! Once you finish, check in at the General Store to receive a prize for your efforts.
Keep yourself warm by roaming the site and enjoying a hot drink while you do. Pack a picnic, or purchase lunch from the BBQ, and spend a few hours working at your own pace to complete the challenge!
