BEATRICE, NEB. – Homestead National Historical Park’s Heritage and Education Centers will be closed on Thanksgiving Day, Thursday, November 24, 2022. The trails and other outdoor areas are open from dawn to dusk every day, including Thanksgiving Day.
On Friday, November 25 the Homestead Heritage and Education Centers will open at 8:30 a.m. You are encouraged to #OptOutdoors and come to Homestead to explore over three miles of trails while earning a Junior Ranger badge by completing the Junior Ranger Program or the Not So Junior Ranger Program.
