We still have availability to our Fireside Chat on February 28th. Carol Jarboe will be presenting a first person presentation as Maggie Delaney. Maggie was an Irish indentured servant in early America. This is a heart wrenching tale of the harsh life of indentured servants. It is a story that needs to be heard.

Reservations are required and can be made by calling the Park at 859-527-3131 and selecting the Business Office option. If no answer, please leave your name and phone number and we will contact you.
