Club Star: This Is The Place field trip

This weeks Club Star field trip was to This Is The Place Monument and Park. It is a simulated town that is run and operated like they did when the Pioneers were alive. They have original houses and cabins that have been moved to the site. There are people acting as tins smith, mothers, teachers, etc. for a very hands-on involved experience. Even in 100+ degree weather it was very enjoyable.
The kids enjoyed a lesson in the schoolhouse.
