Fort Ticonderoga Presents Homeschool Day

Fort Ticonderoga Presents Homeschool Day

Fort Ticonderoga will host Homeschool Day on Friday, September 6, 2024, from 9:30am-5:00pm. Homeschool students and their parents will participate in immersive programs, visit museum exhibitions, and explore the historic site, including the King’s Garden, Carillon Battlefield Hiking Trail, and the Heroic Corn Maze.

Hands-on programming take place in the historic trades shops throughout the day, including a demonstration of the soldiers’ mid-day meal preparation. Make the most of your Homeschool Day with “In His Majesty’s Service,” an engaging Student Scavenger Hunt! Explore Fort Ticonderoga’s exhibits, watch weapons demonstrations, and talk with the engaging living history staff to find the answers to questions about Fort Ticonderoga’s defining history!

Beyond the epic military history and related programs, visitors will have the opportunity to roll up their sleeves and help dig into Fort Ticonderoga’s layered past in the garden as they tend to produce and flowers alongside soldiers from 3-4:30 pm.

A NEW 2024 corn maze design is a popular activity as guests navigate 6-acres of towering corn stalks, answering history clues related to Fort Ticonderoga to conquer the maze! Complete the mission to sign your name on the wall of fame!

Ignite your imagination on the archeologically rich and historic waters of Lake Champlain with a narrated boat cruise just for homeschool families at 10:30am. At 12:30pm and 1:15 pm, learn a new maritime craft as you row across Lake Champlain in our reproduction 18th-century bateau (flat-bottomed boat). Reservations are required and tickets are limited for the lake excursions. Visit the tent outside of the Log House Welcome Center between 9:30am-11:30am; additional fees required at a first-come, first-served basis.

The cost is $9/student, 1 free parent, $16/additional parent.
