About the event

Games of the 18th Century

Sunday, August 24 3:30 PM – 4:00 PM
Cost: Free

Unplug and join Ranger Jason Davis for a half hour of fun in the fort! Life on the frontier 250 years ago required plenty of hard work but there was also time for games. Enjoy learning how 18th century games evolved from ordinary objects around the farmstead including Hoop and Stick and the game of Graces. No cords or batteries necessary! This program is appropriate for all ages, both the young and the “young at heart.” Meet inside Fort Watauga.
