Added attractions and interactive events this year include: greased pig contest, tug of war competition, steam engine games, pie eating contest, Iowa Trolley Park Kid Steam Rides, plus so much more. Peek in the one room school house on Saturday to witness local children experiencing a typical school day as it was at the turn of the century.
