Elementary-aged children (6 – 12 years old) can live life through a 1900’s child by learning in a one-room school, doing chores in the family home, dressing in old-fashioned clothes, practicing a trade and visiting village buildings.
The focus this year is immigration. Campers will experience life in 1900 as a new immigrant to the area. Whether recently or long ago, everyone’s family immigrated from somewhere. We will explore where ancestors came from and what it was like to leave the “old country” behind and start a new life in rural Dakota County in 1900. Each day is different but builds on knowledge and activities from the previous day.
Each camper must have transportation to and from Dakota City, located on the Dakota County Fairgrounds in Farmington, and bring a bag lunch and water bottle each day. All supplies for activities and an afternoon snack are provided by Dakota City.
Space is limited and the registration deadline is June 8 or when camp is full. See our website for registration information
