2nd Annual Historic Skills Day at Lyman Run State Park

On Saturday, September 27th from 10 AM to 3 PM, stop by the Daggett Day Use Area by the playground to learn about how Potter County residents went about their daily lives before the invention of modern conveniences.
This hands-on event is a fun family event to try your hand at a historic skill or simply watch and learn. Dive into spinning wool and learning about heritage fiber animals from local artist Linda Voss Plummer from 10 AM to 12 PM and learn about using natural dyes to color yarn and fabric with a park educator. Taste flavors of the past with a Dutch Oven cooking demonstration with John and Jan Halter at 11 AM and again at 1 PM. Throughout the event, learn about woodhicks and lumber heritage while trying a crosscut saw with Jennifer Haines with the PA Lumber Museum.
Drop in any time between 10 AM and 3 PM to press your own apple cider, make (and sample) homemade butter, and try a few fun historic crafts. All ages. Leashed dogs welcome. Rain or shine. Questions? Contact the Lyman Run State Park Office at 814-435-5010 or email lymanrunsp@pa.gov
