Come join us for a day of Family-Friendly fun, learning, and laughter!

 

Our day starts with a hilarious skit about the Gold Rush where you will meet outlandish characters like Kissin' Cassie and Vision Cloud!

 

Next, divide into groups for some hands-on skill training for Participants ages 6 and up! This includes Woodworking, Candle Dipping & Electromagnetism, Gold Panning and Gemstone Searching, Sewing, Handcart Trekking, Jelly-making and unplugging with some Historic Games and Toys! For our younger crowd (5 and under), there will be some art and coloring projects available.

 

Lunch is provided for paid participants, and available for purchase otherwise. During the hour long break, there will be a multitude of Carnival Games available to all! Try your luck and earn special Gold Gulch tokens that can be redeemed for prizes in the Souvenir Gift Shop! The Gift Shop will be open all day, but the Gold Gulch tokens are ONLY redeemable at Lunchtime.
