First it was a blockbuster movie starring Whoopi Goldberg. Then it was a hit Broadway musical that took New York and London by storm!  Now, direct from a successful National Tour, SISTER ACT comes to our stage in a brand new production as only The Fireside can give you. This hilarious, tuneful, exciting show tells the tale of Deloris - a Las Vegas lounge singer who witnesses a murder and is forced to hide in a convent pretending to be a nun - Sister Mary Clarence.  What follows is a rollicking, fast-paced comedy filled with nuns, cops, gangsters, mistaken identities, comic chases, rapid fire jokes, and a terrific score by the Academy Award winning composer of BEAUTY AND THE BEAST, THE LITTLE MERMAID, LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS, and NEWSIES.

Take a step back in time with the early pioneers of the 1800s, as people reenact this historical time period.  Stroll through the park and view demonstrations and exhibits of how tasks were accomplished.  Demonstrations include black powder shooting and competition, pioneer demonstrations, interactive old-time chores, birch bark canoe demonstration, and blacksmithing. Sit back and relax on a horse-drawn wagon or sample fry bread, root beer, and kettle corn from our camp chefs.

Visitors will capture the lifestyle, from clothing worn by the pioneers to their housing.  Continue on to see the old "Fort", a replica for local militia units during the Black Hawk War of 1832.

Free parking is available.
