All About Artillery (Self-Guided Program)
This program is perfect for those who are curious about cannons and want to learn more about them. "All About Artillery" is a worksheet-based program that encourages students to interact with historic cannons. The program is largely self-guided with some ranger interaction.
*This program takes place both indoors and outdoors immediately around the Visitor Center.
Please be mindful of the outdoor nature of this activity when planning your field trip.
