the fort!

Think about the last
trip you took.


Was it a family vacation
or a class field trip?


If you wrote down everything you saw, everything you heard, everything you ate?


That's called
keeping a Journal!


Follow me as I walk on
my journey to the Fort!

Remembering everything you do and see can be hard. If you write about your trip as you go, you will remember more easily. You can draw maps and pictures.

Journals can be great fun. Weeks later, your journal will help you remember all the fun you had. Journals can tell you about people and places long ago. Journals can tell us how places have changed.





The story at this bastion tells us about

people who lived long ago at the place we now call
Fort Stanwix National Monument.
