The California Trail Interpretive Center is excited to host your next field trip! Our free education programs follow Nevada Education and Common Core Standards. Programs are offered year-round. Plan on a minimum of 1 1/2 hours for staff-led programs.
Program itinerary:
Introduction – 15 minutes
Staff-led hands-on stations – 1 hour total
Wrap-up 10 minutes
In addition to staff-led programs, classes may partake in self-guided tours of the exhibits, outside encampments, and the Donner Theater, either prior to or following staff-led programs. Allow 40 minutes for these activities.
Outdoor programs will be held during cold, non-rainy weather. Please make sure students are dressed appropriately -coat, hat, gloves, warm shoes.
In the event of rain, outdoor programs will be substituted with an indoor program.
All programs are subject to change without notice.
