Step back 250 years and experience life on the Indiana frontier!

Join us at The Pound Store in Oswego and discover how trappers and traders survived — and thrived — in the wilderness. Watch skilled historical interpreters demonstrate the tools of their trade and reveal the challenges of living on the edge of a developing nation.

You’ll even hear their thoughts on a bold new document stirring conversation across the colonies: “The Declaration of Independence.” What will they think of this daring idea?

This free, family-friendly event is a hands-on journey into history you won’t want to miss. Bring your curiosity — and the whole family — for an unforgettable step back in time!
