We were here for the Lewis and Clark Festival

Wonderful presentations by period dressed gentlemen on the times and travels of Lewis and Clark. There were also food vendors and arts and crafts of high quality.

Lewis and Clark Fans

We came from Washington state to see this Center and were not disappointed. It has offerings for all ages and lots of information on the Lewis and Clark expedition. The view of the Missouri River was awesome.
