Fur Trade: Homeschool Family Field Trip
Pinecrest Historical Village

Note: In order to give students hands-on experiences, we suggest families rotate in small groups. Thus the maximum capacity of this program is about 100 students.
The ideal age for this program is 4 to 17. Program activities take place from 10 am to 2 pm, unless otherwise noted. We suggest allowing at least 2 hours to enjoy the program activities. The Two Creeks Town Hall is available for families to take a snack or lunch break, or enjoy a quiet space to play.
Family field trip/homeschool program admission is $6 for students age 4 to 17. Children under 4 are admitted free. One adult educator per family is admitted free. Additional adults may join in the program at a cost of $13 each. Payment is due upon registration.
