Join us for this fun family event where WCT will teach participants about stream habitat, water quality, and why streams are so important to our environment.

George and Martha Washington: A Love Story

Join us on the road to the Semiquincentennial! Today, we often see America’s first “First Couple” as very old people, in stodgy portraits. However, at the start of the American Revolution, they were in their 40s, a vibrant couple in middle age. Featuring Curt Radabaugh as General Washington and Alisa Dupuy as Lady Washington, hear from them how they met, their marriage, their families, their responsibilities and, of course, their love. Discover George and Martha Washington as real people living in a very different time.


Special presentations at 11:30 AM and 2:00 PM.


Tickets*: $12 adults, $8 children; Members Free

Last admission at 3 PM. Farm open until 4 PM. *No advanced tickets required.
