What a wonderful weekend we had at Stronghold Olde English Faire. This is one of the highlights of our year and it was the perfect way to close out our season. That said, just because our season has come to an end, doesn't mean we aren't still learning, creating and developing new ways to educate and entertain. Stay tuned...
