Description
Learn about Kentucky’s hidden Underground Railroad. Participants will discover sites that relate to Oldham County, abolitionists in our area, and Henry Bibb, a slave-turned-abolitionist who escaped to freedom in Canada. Participants will also get to meet Aunt Hannah, a slave; Henry Bibb; and Conductor Delia Webster. They will learn about the History Center’s participation in the National Park Service as well. Lots of activities in a hands-on two day camp for those who like exploring new things and being outside. Led by Helen E. McKinney, Educator/Genealogist for the History Center.
