Pioneer Day 2008


Pioneer Day has come and gone, and everyone had a wonderful time. More than 600 people joined us at Pioneer Day held at Old Settlers Park in Round Rock, where 72 volunteers worked to help make the event an educational and enjoyable day. From the spinner to the schoolmarm, the corn shellers to the cornhusk dolls, and the Buffalo Soldiers to the Confederate soldier, there was something for everyone to see and do. Throw in a Dutch oven lunch cooked over an open fire and a general store, and the day added up fun!

The Williamson Museum thanks everyone who attended, everyone who gave their time, and Humanities Texas for making the event a success. See you next year!
