Peter Wentz Farmstead's Colonial Camp 2024
Have you ever dreamed of traveling into the past? Well, we may not have a time machine, but we’ve got the next best thing. Join us this summer for the Peter Wentz Farmstead’s Colonial Camp, where you can step back into the eighteenth century and live like a colonial farmer for a week!
This year’s Colonial Camp will run from July 8th to July 12th from 9:30 am to 2:30 pm. Each day, our living historians will lead campers through hands-on demonstrations of historical crafts. Learn how to grow, harvest, and process flax from a real farmer. Try your hand at sewing, basket-weaving, silhouette-cutting, and more. You don’t have to be a history buff to have a good time! We’ll be covering a wide range of topics like art, nature, agriculture, and technology.
Colonial Camp is for kids going into 4th-6th grade. The cost for the week is $100 per child. Registration is limited and ends June 14th, so sign up today!
Visit https://events.humanitix.com/peter-wentz-farmstead-s-colonial-camp-2024 to register.
Is your child going into 7th grade or older, but still interested in participating in Colonial Camp? Consider becoming a junior volunteer! Junior volunteers will have the opportunity to learn leadership skills and local history, earn volunteer hours, and enrich the lives of other kids.
