America 250 California Trail Day

Join us as we celebrate America’s 250th Anniversary with a day of hands-on history, family fun, and pioneer experiences!

Step back in time and discover what life was like for the emigrants who traveled west along the California Trail. Visitors can make cloth dolls and candles, play pioneer games, create animal tracks, enjoy musical activities, and learn how emigrants sent mail and prepared food during their journey.

Activities will take place at both the Visitor Center and along the California Trail Corridor within the reserve.

Bring the whole family and celebrate this historic milestone with us. We look forward to seeing you there!
