There are two 60-minute winter nature walks led by Jennings’ staff at 9 a.m. and 11 a.m.

Or sign up for one of six 30-minute history hikes, where visitors can witness a reenactment of the 1753 musket shot that almost killed Washington at age 21.

There will also be indoor presentations and displays, including reenactors with clothing and equipment from the time period. This event commemorates George Washington's birthday and his 1753 mission through western Pennsylvania that demanded French withdrawal from British territory; a mission led to the French and Indian War.
