The schedule of events include a "Treasure Sale", hay rides, dulcimer music, contest of best dressed historical character and demonstrations performed by MacGregor Ranch, Herb Thompson, Rocky Mountain Anglers, weavers and spinners. Light snacks and soft beverages will be sold in an effort to raise money for the museum. The Museum is in hopes of making the "History Fair" an annual event. There is a possibility that the use of the "mountain wagon", that was built by F. O. Stanley, presently in the area, could be included in the Fair.
