The Nicollet County Historical Society is thrilled about the return of our annual event, Shadows at the Crossing: Spirits of Old Traverse des Sioux. This unique experience allows attendees to step back in time and interact with the pioneer citizens of Traverse des Sioux as they share their stories and experiences.
Unfortunately, we need three more volunteer actors to bring these historical figures to life. If you have a passion for history, enjoy storytelling, and are available on October 6th and 7th from 6:00 p.m. to 9:00 p.m., We would be delighted if you would join us as a volunteer actor.
