In addition, students can participate in history hunts at the Chester Inn State Historic Site and Museum, participate in train based activities in the Chuckey Depot Railroad Museum, and listen to a Storyteller. Archeological activities will be offered in the morning, and older students will have the opportunity to play history detective using primary sources. It will be a day full of history and fun!
