How Did They Get There from Here? A Look at Transportation Over the Years.
This Year's History Camp
This year's camp will look at the means of travel used by primitive man to those used today. Transportation over land and sea, as well as through the air will all be covered.
In their quest for answers about methods of conveyance, campers will go on field trips, meet special guests and explore the exhibits at the Harmon Museum.
When?
Monday, July 7, 2025, to Thursday, July 10, 2025. 9 a.m. until noon except on field trip day (Wednesday), when the hours will be from 8:45 a.m. until 1:30 p.m. (A sack lunch will be needed on field trip days.)

Camp is a great opportunity for kids to make new friends and socialize with other children of different ages!
