It’s hard to believe that fall is upon us! The leaves are changing color at the Cottage and we’re in the mood for some fun fall programs!
Next week is Fall Break for DCPS, and we have some special offerings in honor of Tad Lincoln, who lived at the Cottage, explored the grounds, learned from the Bucktail soldiers, and played games with his famous father.
Fall Break Family Tours of the Cottage (October 9-13th daily at noon)
Rocknoceros Concert (Friday, October 10th at 11am)
