We are pleased that your group will visit the Benicia Historical Museum. The docent-led tours of the Museum, Powder Magazine, and the Early California Outdoor Activities take approximately 2 ½ hours.

There must be a minimum of one adult for every five students. The success of the Hands-On Program depends on the parent volunteers. A docent will be available to assist only. Please prepare your group prior to your arrival by reading the hands-on materials to both students and adults.

In the Outdoor Activities (c. 1837-1870s), students will learn about many items used during this time period. Students will then break into groups and rotate through the following stations depending upon your time schedule and the number of adults in your group.

♦ Water hauling and steer roping  ♦ Bucket brigade  ♦ Adobe brick making
♦ California Indian pictographs      ♦ Corn grinding     ♦ Laundry

Students should dress appropriately. Please avoid jewelry or clothing, which may become damaged by water or mud. Some activities may be substituted during rainy weather.

Please review the following information to ensure that it is correct and return it as soon as possible. We look forward to your visit, and hope it is a valuable learning experience. If you have any questions please call the museum at the number listed above.
