“The Feast was a special day. We ate food like turkey, peas, corn, cookies, pumpkin pie, apple pie and ice cream, juice and milk and water. Kids got to eat in the library!”

~Isabel,
NPCH Student

"I remember volunteering at my first Thanksgiving Feast. It was a blast! The kids wore their pilgrim and Native American hats. They were so excited and proud to be part of this wonderful tradition. My kids looked forward to this as much as Thanksgiving Day itself."~Jodi, Mother of three NPCH
Students/Graduates

"When I visit NPCH, I still like the
challenge of map tracings. You have to find the state you’re interested in, trace it, remember the name and replace it. It’s awesome.”
