The La Mesa Co-Op would love to invite you to join us on a field trip to Fort Cross for the “Colonial Life” experience, featuring the following activities (https://www.fortcross.com/colonial-life):
Blacksmith Demonstration: One of the most important trades of the Colonial era.
Surgeon Station: The tools of a field surgeon are put to use with explanations of why things were done the way they were.
Tinsmith: Create your own piece of tinsmith art, in the same fashion as the lantern used during Paul Revere's famous ride.
Dance Etiquette: Manners were important for gentleman and ladies during festive social gatherings of the time.
