Starting in 1969, Fort Seward, Inc. hosted a family-oriented covered wagon train that has now become an annual event for adventurous kids and their families. Starting at the Fort Seward Infantry Post in Jamestown, the event, typically held in June, is a great way to promote the way people traveled during the time of covered wagons. Participants can bring their own saddled horse, ride in a wagon, or walk. No electronics or other modern conveniences are allowed. The wagon train includes camping, history talks, and nature lore. This adventurous journey comes complete with a chuck wagon.
