• Make ropes in the Agriculture Building

• See wood carving and woodworking in the Woodwork Shop

• See blacksmithing at the Blacksmith Forge

• Watch classic printing at the Print Shop outside the Norwegian Room

• Enjoy Hungry Hollow demonstrations between the Pioneer Cabin and driveway

• Watch a Sheep to Shawl demonstration between the Joliet School and Building 14

• Get started or learn more about genealogy with the Blue Hills Genealogical Society in the Town Hall

​

The Pioneer Kitchen will be open from 10 AM - 4 PM both days for lunch and snacks, a tractor parade will be held on both days at 2 PM, and both days will feature live music (Kim Richie & Friends - Saturday, Gospel Notes - Sunday) in the Pavilion from 11 AM - 3 PM. On Sunday, Pastor Ron Krout will hold a church service in the Ebenezer Church at 10:30 AM.
