Homeschool Day: The Smokey Hill Trail

You've heard of the Oregon Trail, but have you heard of the Smokey Hill Trail? The Smokey Hill Trail ran from Kansas to Denver and went right through present day Aurora! Join us for fun and games as we learn about this less famous but just as exciting wagon trail.
