Come to the Ely Stage Stop and Country Museum for the first day of Summer! On June 22nd we’ll be having a “Picnic On The Porch” for the whole family to enjoy! The day will be filled with entertainment and living history. Begin the day listening to local musicians as they recreate the music of the Stage Coach Era. Barbara White will be all decked out in Victorian-era clothing plus you’ll see a display of what women were wearing throughout their daily life from a dressing gown to a beautiful ball gown. Check out the Ely’s Stage Coach, a replica of that used on the Highland Springs to Pieta line. Around noon we will gather for the “Picnic On The Porch” and enjoy a yummy box lunch from Rosey Cooks and refreshing beverages with a Trio of Tasty Treats for dessert – Sweet! Then we’ll all stretch our legs with games and basket raffles. Take a tour of the museum and then head down the hill to the Ely’s new Barn and see our progress.

The fun begins at 11 AM through 3 PM. Event cost is $30/per person. For tickets, call Pam Hendricks at 707-279-0427 or visit the museum and ask the docents during museum hours, Saturdays and Sundays, 11 AM to 3 PM.
