Travel back in time with park rangers!  Young historians will learn what some of the tools of the craft can teach us, including: books, timelines, artifacts and interviewing others. After learning some skills, Junior Rangers will travel back in time to see what can be learned from History House- a museum made-up to look like how an officer’s family home might look like in the 1940’s.

Program will start and end at the Fort Hancock Museum and will include a short walk to -and-from History House (weather permitting).
