Entertaining The Troops
Saturday, January 18, 2014 10:00 till 3:00

There will be an interactive educational program showcasing the varied games and sundry items that the soldier stationed at Fort McKavett would have employed to keep himself entertained in his down time.

Learn the period games of Chuck-a-Luck, Mill (Nine Men's Morris), hearts, and marbles.

Try your hand at making clay marbles or read one of the dime novels available to the soldiers through the sutler's store.

Standard rates apply. For more information, please contact the site: cody.mobley@thc.state.tx.us
