is to preserve and interpret the western rural heritage and

Mile Historic Park we make history come to life with hands-on
activities for children ages pre-kindergarten through 6th grade

to address state education standards, enrich established curriculum,
and provide a memorable, engaging journey into the past. The
Park offers a variety of educational programs for Schools, students
and Seniors. Four Mile also offers summer day camps, birthday
party packages, rental space, and exciting special events.
