Field Trip To Smith's Castle- November 17, 2006

The senior class visited Smith's Castle, an authentic working Early Colonial American Home. The children were greeted by a costumed curator and brought into its small rooms, low ceilings, crooked floors and authentic 250 year old furniture to be shown how life was lived by the Pilgrims and early colonists here in America. They got to churn butter (and enjoy it on bread!), grind corn and carry water the old-fashioned way.
