Education Day - Sept. 7, 2012

In an effort to give students a greater understanding of American Indian culture and heritage, the festival grounds are closed to the public during the day on Friday, September 7 to allow kindergarten through sixth grade students and teachers to spend the day as part of a special educational program. PLEASE NOTE: We welcome Home School students as well!
