Details about upcoming history events at George Ranch
Home (School) on the Ranch
February 28th, 9 a.m. to 3 p.m.
The George Ranch Historical Park presents "Home [School] on the Ranch," a day program specifically designed for homeschoolers. You'll travel back in time through four different sites - the 1830s Jones Stock Farm, the 1860s Ryon Prairie Home, the 1890s Davis Victorian Mansion and the 1930s George Ranch Home - and focus on what home life was like in each of those time periods. Since public schools weren't widespread in the early days, the Jones and Ryon families were some of the first homeschoolers in the area! Bring the whole family for a day of fun and learning. And don't forget to wear your pioneer dresses and cowboy hats!
