Events and Activities : CENTER POINT HISTORICAL SOCIETY’S LOG CABIN FESTIVAL PLANNED FOR AUGUST 22

The Center Point Historical Society's Log Cabin Festival is back and basic for 2021, celebrating the 1850s Strait Log Cabin and old-fashioned handwork and play. The free family event is 2 to 4, Sunday, August 22, at 700 E. Washington, on the Cedar Valley Nature Trail.

Besides touring the log cabin, you can try your hand at rope making, corn shelling and washing on a washboard. There will be demonstrations of wood carving, hand piecing and quilting and other handiwork. Portrait-sketching, old kids' games and homemade toys will also be part of the fun.

In case of rain, activities will be moved inside the Depot Museum. Questions? 319-721-6948.
