Historic Games Day

September 28 10 am – 2 pm

When was the last time you played croquet, jumped a potato sack race, or played marbles?  Join the staff at Powhatan Historic State Park to play these games and enjoy the day with us.  In partnership with Take a Child Outside Week, the park will have booths featuring games played by all ages from the Victorian Era to today.  Some of the games offered to play include old-fashioned sack races, croquet, graces, marbles, jump rope, jacks, yo-yos, checkers, horseshoes, and more.  So bring your family, a picnic lunch, some lawn chairs, and spend the day enjoying a little bit of Yesteryear!
