Lincoln’s Birthday Pizza Party and Museum Tour for Students

The Pike County Historical Society and Museum is excited to offer a special program geared for 11–14-year-olds who would like to learn more about the history of Pike County and explore the exhibits in The Columns Museum.  The program is open to 20 children between the ages of 11 and 14 and is free.

On Monday, February 19th from 10am-2pm, the museum will host a special program which will provide for a guided tour of the museum and a fun filled and educational scavenger hunt for history.  Participants will learn about the famed Lincoln Flag as well as the many other people, places and things which make up the history of Pike County.  A guided tour will be followed by a “scavenger hunt for history” for which the students will be divided into teams and challenged to search for the answers to questions about the many exhibits and artifacts housed in the museum.  The program concludes with a pizza party and birthday cake in honor of President Abraham Lincoln’s birthday.

To register for this fun filled day, please contact Liz Steen, President of PCHS at peacegrl62@gmail or call 570-296-8126.
