Solon Springs Voyageur Daze

Voyageur Daze celebrates the re-enactment of the fur trading era from 1690-1840 by a number of campers in authentic, period-correct attire, representing voyageurs, fur traders, hunters and Native Americans. Learn about the men and women who came to this region to trade with the Native Americans and discover new territory. There will be demonstrations of a variety of early arts and games.
