Homeschool: Buffalo Soldiers

Join us for another blast from the past as we host the Texas Buffalo Soldiers! Registration required.

Lockhart State Park’s homeschool program is a set of outdoor classes for homeschool kiddos grades 1-5. Classes are usually held on the first full week of the month (September through April), and you can choose between Tuesday at 10am, Wednesday at 2pm, or Thursday at 10am. We cover a different topic every month, so don’t miss out! 

Texas Buffalo Soldiers

December’s topic is frontier history with the Texas Buffalo Soldiers! The Buffalo Soldiers are TPWD’s very own living history interpreters. Join Lt. Dolifka as he shares his experiences from the frontier! 

Please Note: This class will only be offered on Wednesday and Thursday. There will be no Tuesday class this month.
