The Trade Field Trip for Homeschool & Remote Learners
September 18, 2025 @ 12:30 pm - 2:00 pm

Step back in time to Illinois during the 1750s.
Students practice the barter system used by the French and American Indians to exchange goods. By participating in a trade, students learn and see the benefits of this economic process. This is an opportunity for homeschooled or remote-learning students to experience Isle a la Caches field trip programs that are normally only offered to school groups.
Registration required by Tuesday, Sept. 16: 815-722-9301.
Ages 7-12. Students must be accompanied by a chaperone.
