Storm Wolves are gearing up to tell us what life was back in the days when Vikings sailed the seas and rivers of Europe and Vinland. You'll see authentic weapons, hear detailed explanations of how they fought, and you can ask as many questions as you want. They'll showcase their talents at 1:30 and 3:30. Come as early as 11:30 to have your kids paint their own viking shield, participate in some kids activities, throw some axes with Bearded Ax Throwing (only $5), and enjoy some food from Top Hawg. This will be a day full of excitement and activities for the whole family!
