Museum offers new

kid-oriented game

The Tread of Pioneers Museum now offers "Tread" treasure hunts for children. Whenever children visit the museum to tour with their parents, they will be given a map and clues to finding different interesting pieces of historical information contained in the museum. When they've answered all the questions on their treasure hunt, they can pick a prize.
