Sadly the extreme heat is forcing us to postpone the historical ghost tour scheduled for this Saturday to September. ☀️🥴 Surely the weather will be cooler in a few weeks! We will post on our page when we get the new date scheduled.

If you stop by the Visitor’s Center you will see this piece of history in the front yard!

The Fort Reno Visitors Center and Museum will be open Monday-Friday 10-4 this week. Come see us! The heat seems to be scaring off the historic ghost tour participants. Check back here at the end of the week to see if we have enough signed up for the tour. We pay for security so need enough to at least break even. :-)
