SKUNK HOLLOW AND THE GREAT SWAMP
SOUTH - WALKING TOUR NO. 1 – 5:00 PM, TUESDAY, JUNE 17, 2025 – CREEKSIDE PARK
NORTH - WALKING TOUR NO. 2 – 1:00 PM, TUESDAY, JUNE 17, 2025 – PARK TAVERN
We inaugurated a series of walking tours last summer, and we’re at it again. Doing it in more closely timed pairs this year, Tuesdays and Sundays, to make better connections between Great Swamp stories, south and north.
As always with history, we learned new things by telling old stories and we’ve incorporated those into this summer’s tours. This year also learn how we are weaving Park history with the previous and most recent occupants of the land, the Dakota people.
Sign up for single tours or for a pair of them at Hennepin History Museum, and check back here for further details:
