When was the last time you played croquet, jumped a potato sack race, or played marbles? Join the staff at Powhatan Historic State Park, located two miles south of Black Rock on Highway 25, to play these games and enjoy the day with us. In partnership with Take a Child Outside Week, the park will have booths featuring games played by all ages from the Victorian Era to today, as well as several races. Some of the games offered to play include old-fashioned sack races, croquet, graces, marbles, tag and freeze tag, apple dunking, jump rope, jacks, yo-yos, checkers, horseshoes, and more. So bring your family, a picnic lunch, some lawn chairs, and spend the day enjoying a little bit of Yesteryear! For more information, contact the park at 870-878-6765 or email powhatan@arkansas.com
