Slocum Days features local history lesson BY BILL HARPER Post Staff * Settlers, who first came to the area over 200 years ago, will re- turn to Francis Slocum State Park on October 10 and 11 when the park sponsors its annual Francis Slocum Days. The 1992 event will cater to all ages according to Park Naturalist Jerry Kozlansky. Kozlansky is organizing the event which will feature the history of the park, as well as the settlers and Indians in the region. “Few people really know the history of the park, the legend of Frances Slocum and why the park is here today,” Kozlansky said. Kozlansky said that there is an interest in history, mainly because of the rich history in this area. He said that the historical events which the park offers have the biggest turnouts. “People really want to learn and educate themselves on the history of the area,” Kozlansky said. “Kozlansky said that Frances Slocum was five years old when she was abducted by the Delaware Indians in 1778. Years later, she was discovered living in Indiana with the Miami Indian tribe. Kozlansky said that Slocum was kidnapped to replace a brave who was lost in battle, something that was regularly done in many Indian tribes. Kozlansky said that the differ- ence between how Indians are portrayed in movies and books, and how they actually lived is always discussed in the programs which the park sponsors. ‘The two day event will feature demonstrations, Indian games for the children, and a hike to the rock shelter where Frances spent her first night with the Delaware Indi- ans. Indian culture will be fea- tured on the 11th with the settlers to the area being featured on the 10th. “The large area by the lake gives us enough room for the Indian games and the visitors center at the park is also a small museum which people love to visit,” Kozlan- sky said. Kozlansky said that members of the Dennison House will offering a colonial sing-a-long and story tell- ing. David Two Wolves Smith and Laughing Bear will speak about indian tradition and culture. Colonial face painting and crafts will be offered and Mary Baker will be leading the group in Colonial stories, : according to Dorothy Walker of the Dennison Advocates of the Dennison House. The Dennison Advocates are a group which interprets the history of the Dennison House, Walker said. “We have different programs and different groups participate every year because of the varied history of the area,” Kozlansky said. he Castle Jun Route 415, Memorial Highway, My husband aid I were recently married on September 26, Dallas, PA 18612 Call 675-0804 Decorate Every Room ).
