Description

Join Eisenhower National Historic Site for its second family day of the summer! Youth (ages 6 to 12) can ride the shuttle bus to the Eisenhower farm for free. 

In conjunction with the 50th anniversary of the Apollo Moon landings, the theme for July 20 is “Space Day” at the Eisenhower farm. In recognition of President Eisenhower signing the act creating NASA, special family activities will focus on NASA and outer space. The Westminster Astronomical Society will be on site with astronomy and space displays, daytime solar viewing activities, and will offer a scale model solar system walk. A special junior ranger “Space Explorer” book developed by the National Park Service and NASA will be available to explore beyond Earth. The fun is sure to be out of this world!
