Throw-Back Thursday: History Programs for Children
Every Thursday Weekly from 06/01/2017 to 08/03/2017 10:00 AM to 11:30 AM
Ulysses S. Grant National Historic Site will offer free hands-on history programs for children and their families on Thursday mornings in the summer. Programs will be offered June 1 – August 3 from 10 – 11:30 am. Children will be engaged in a variety of activities related to the people who lived at White Haven in the 19th century or to the National Park Service. Program topics will vary each week. Activities are most appropriate for ages 6 and up, but younger siblings will certainly find something fun to do as well. Reservations are recommended and may be made by calling 314-842-1867 ext. 230.
