Lawyers, witnesses, judge, and court clerks, re-created by costumed interpreters, will present real court cases from 1870s Iowa courts. Sit on the jury and find out if your verdicts match those of your 19th century predecessors! Cases begin at 12:00pm, 12:30pm, 1:00pm, 1:30pm, and 2:00pm in the schoolhouse.

Then catch the action at an 1870s-rules baseball game at 3:00pm.
