Jesse H. Jones Park invites you to their annual Pioneer Day!  Sat., Nov. 14, 10 a.m.-4 p.m.

Visitors can travel back in time by making corn husk dolls, bonnets, lye soap, beeswax candles, and much more. See how the early inhabitants of Texas made and used their tools and weapons. A skirmish provides a living-history look at the authentic weaponry, costumes, and significance of Civil War battles. Volunteers and staff show visitors how early settlers built and protected their homesteads. You might even get to taste some authentic pioneer cooking

!Take a "living history" look at the Texas settler and “Native American” lifestyles! Witness a skirmish for Texas independence, along with woodworking, blacksmithing, cooking and many other demonstrations. Folk music is featured and hayrides are provided.

Fun for the whole family. All ages.
