Due to the damage caused by Hurricane Helene, on-site field trips are canceled until further notice. But, please reach out to Brittany Bennett Joachim at brittany.bennett@dncr.nc.gov to discuss in-classroom programming.
From field trips to group outings, we want to share the history of Western N.C. with you! We welcome students of all ages. If you want to schedule a special visit for your group, contact our Historical Interpreter, Brittany B. Joachim at 828-668-9259 or at brittany.bennett@dncr.nc.gov.
Please let Brittany know the following:
- Roughly how many students and chaperones are coming.
- Age/Grade level.
- View our guide to field trips for grades K-5 by downloading the PDF below.
Self-guided tours of the museums and cabins are always free, but if your group is larger than 15 people, we would like to schedule a special time for you.
If you would like a special presentation, related to your groups educational goals, we need a four month notice to prepare.
Want to invite us to your educational event? Just email Brittany B. Joachim at brittany.bennett@ncdcr.gov with the date(s), theme, and any paper work required.
