Did you miss our Brown County History Day program? Don't worry, you have one more chance! Join us at the National Railroad Museum on Friday, May 16, from 1–2 p.m. as we explore the 40&8 Box Car! The 40&8 Box Car is a symbol of resilience, sacrifice, and international gratitude. Learn how it served in two World Wars and became a gift from the people of France to the United States after WWII. Admission is free! More details at: https://browncountywihistory.com/historydays/ (fb)

We had such a great time during the first week of A Day In A Life! During this program at the National Railroad Museum, students stepped back in time and explored life in 1860s America through hands-on activities. Each station brought to life a different aspect of living during this period, including laying railroad tracks, riding the rails, joining the Pony Express, and more! This immersive program combined history, science, and math, all aligned with the Wisconsin Model Academic Standards. It was education brought to life — and a day they won’t soon forget! Our Day In A Life programming is full this year, but you can learn about all our educational programs at https://nationalrrmuseum.org/educationhome/ (fb)
