Will you survive the trail? Or die of dysentery? Test your luck at the 3rd Annual Live Action Oregon Trail game! Once again, the Jackson County Historical Society is partnering with the National Frontier Trails Museum to bring you Live Action Oregon Trail.

Teams of 4 will see if they have what it takes to survive the Oregon Trail. There are multiple stops along the way with games, trivia, and relay races. Teams will pack their wagon, "hunt" wild game, and much more! Each team has the chance to win points at each stop.

From 10am-1pm, the trail is reserved for the "slow and steady pace." This is perfect for families! 1pm-4pm is reserved for the "grueling pace." Perfect for the more competitive Oregon Trail player.
