Calling all members of the Troy Historical Society! We invite members to step back in time to when they were in second grade and experience what the Village does best- a field trip! Make a toy to learn about wants and needs, learn about and become a tinsmith, and attend the one room school as an 1880s student.
This program is FREE for all Members. Please RSVP to help us prepare!

- What happens if I’m running late? Should I still come? Yes! Please check-in at the Main Building when you arrive and we will get you placed into a group. You will miss part of the field trip experience but will have time to ask questions about it afterwards.
- I registered online, but I have friends/family that want to join. The more the merrier! Just be sure that you have a Household Membership level or higher, or that your friends/family have their own THS Membership.
- Will I be able to get around easily using my wheelchair or walker? Yes! The Village offers three accessible parking spaces in our west parking lot. All of our buildings have wheelchair-accessible entryways and are connected to the wide paved pathway. Wheelchair-accessible restrooms are available inside the Old Troy Church.
- Will food or drink be available? No, Troy Historic Village does not sell food, nor do we have water fountains. You are welcome to bring a bottle of water and snacks are allowed for medical reasons. Please note we are a peanut free facility.
- Will I be able to explore the rest of the Village? No, the rest of the Village will be closed as it always is after hours. But remember, you are a member and can visit them for free during our normal operating hours!
- Can I bring my dog? Only service animals are allowed at the Village. We strive to make sure everyone feels safe and comfortable, so please leave your pets at home.
- Should I still come if it is raining? Yes! While you will need to walk between a couple buildings, the majority of this program takes place indoors. We do monitor the weather and will adjust our programs as necessary.
