Games Day at The Swetland Homestead
The Luzerne County Historical Society welcomes you to join us for Games Day at the Swetland Homestead. Try your hand at indoor and outdoor historical games. Travel back in time and enjoy leisure activities from the past such as “Shut the Box,” croquet, horseshoes, the Victorian favorite of hoop rolling, or play a game of marbles. Patrons will also be able to try out period baseball equipment and see how the game evolved. We look forward to seeing you for an afternoon of fun and games, including many favorites of the Swetland Family themselves. See how the Swetland family passed the time before video games, iPads and computers! Period dress is welcomed but not required. Games will be running continuously all afternoon, so drop in at your leisure!
