DON'T MISS THIS IF YOU GO:
The Ames Schoolhouse is a classic example of the early 20th century one-room school. Now a part of the Heritage Village, the school building was originally located approximately 300 yards north of the current site. Today it provides local children with a glimpse into the world of education as experienced by their grandparents or great-grandparents.

Oct. 14, 2009 - This is a GREAT festival

Posted by Mississippi
An update: We took our first trip here last weekend. It was awesome. We saw everything imaginable to do with pioneer life, self-sufficency, and even an old one-room schoolhouse. We spent four hours and ate a lot of great old-timey food. I highly recommend this event.
