The Overland Trail Museum in Sterling is offering a unique opportunity to
area school children when the Smithsonian exhibit, Journey Stories, is
exhibited. The exhibit examines how
transportation and migration helped build our nation, how it has changed us and
how our mobile world looked to travelers along the way.
The Museum staff will be offering tours with hands-on activities
FREE of charge to school children during the exhibit which will run October 14 -
November 23, 2013.
Unfortunately, transportation costs can often make it difficult
for school groups to visit our facility. We would like to offer
your group/business an opportunity to help assure that our kids can experience
this wonderful exhibit by helping to build a "scholarship" fund for
transportation costs. Transportation costs typically run about
$150 - $200. per bus. As we build this fund, we will be offering
free or lower cost transportation to school groups and will credit your group or
business as a partner with the Overland Trail Museum.
Thank you for considering a donation to this project.
