The modern Olympics didn't start up until 1896, but the Mahaffies would have heard of the ancient Olympic games. If we asked the Mahaffie children to plan some competetions on the farm, what would they have envisioned?
Throughout this regular living history day we will hold competetions for visitors and staff alike. Activities are subject to change. Regular admission applies.
