Summer Programs
Pioneer-to-the-Past Daycamp
Join us for this fun-filled week that allows campers to immerse themselves in antebellum Boone County history. Campers will approach nineteenth-century rural life through various themes and learn what drew people together and what separated them. They will experience the work and play activities that children their age engaged in and they will focus on nature, community, and family. Activities will include farming, sitting on a jury, caring for sick neighbors, attending a one-room schoolhouse, and, of course, a visit to Middle Creek. All this while enjoying the great outdoors without modern technology.
The first session of this day camp is scheduled for June 17th through June 21st, from 9:00 am to 1:00 pm. Session Two is scheduled for July 8th through July 12th. Dinsmore Homestead will provide lunch one day and snacks every day. The cost is $130 per child with deductions for siblings and museum members.
