Student/Jr. Rendevous

Our Jr. Rendezvous is an educational program that has come to be well-known and loved by upper elementary students across southern Idaho. We strive to create an atmosphere where the students of today could have a chance to see the forgotten heroes of the past.

Using accurate dress and lingo, our members volunteer their time and assets to demonstrate the skills needed in the everyday life of the 18th century frontiersman. Across eight different stations, we portray the trapper’s life and needs, including: blacksmithing, fire starting, fur trapping and black powder shooting, trading, food preparation and more. Storytelling is performed live in each session. All combined, schools enjoy two hours of fun-filled learning and a captivating outdoor atmosphere. 

The Jr. Rendezvous is put on near Rigby, Idaho at Krupp Scout Hallow. It's an ideal and inexpensive chance for 4th grade students to have a visual experience to go along with their studies of Idaho history. We provide four days of morning sessions and three days of afternoon sessions, Tuesday through Friday, intended to nicely coincide with school schedules. Morning sessions are from 9:00 AM to 11:30 PM. Afternoon sessions will be from 12:00 PM to 2:30 PM. We also invite all public, private, and home schooled children to come and observe our creation of the fur trapping era.
