Go back in time with these exhibits and more!
Tools of Days Gone By
Tools big and small...many that you
may not recognize. Hey Kids!
Find the secret tool and correctly identify its use and you'll get a free
ice cream cone!
Ride Back in Time
All types of early modes of transportation including a 1900 Horseless Carriage Automobile, a Railroad "Speeder Car," and an early sleigh "Sold in Hemlock, NY."
Grandma's Kitchen
A full kitchen with a porcelain stove and an original "ice box" which got its cooling
power from ice harvested from Conesus Lake. Can't you just smell the home-made bread and taste the ginger cookies?
