Summer Camp: History Mystery

Step back in time and experience life in 1800s in Oregon! Campers will explore the challenges faced by trappers, settlers, and indigenous peoples as they traveled, traded, and adapted to life on the Oregon Trail. Through hands-on activities, storytelling, cooking, and interactive crafts, campers will encounter adventures in history!

Each day will feature a different History Mystery. Campers will brush up their detective skills as they learn about the tools that historians use to uncover the past!
