MMW hosted students from local schools for a series of field trips.   Schools may contact MMW to arrange field trips in the spring and fall.

Two-hour tours are divided into 15-minute segments, with students, accompanied by teachers and parent chaperones, stopping at “stations” manned by costumed docents, where they learn about life and practices in the old west.
