Voyageur Canoe: Summer Time Traveler

  • North Berrien Historical Museum 300 Coloma Avenue Coloma, MI, 49038 United States (map)

Learn about the daily life and activities of the French fur traders in this fun and immersive program designed for children ages 6–12.

The program will begin at the North Berrien Historical Museum with a lesson and craft about the canoes used by the voyageurs. The program will then relocate to Paw Paw Lake where a Sarett naturalist will take the group on a trip in a 34-foot voyageur canoe replica!

Personal floatation devices will be required and provided. Due to limited seating, we ask that only one parent accompany the group of children they are overseeing. Children under age 8 may ride along without paddling.

Two times frames are available on August 10: 10:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. RSVP is required. Call (269) 468-3330 to reserve your child’s place today!
