THE JOURNEY: All weekend trips begin with prospective weekend pioneers meeting at 10:00 a.m. at the tennis courts-athletic field in the 300 block of South Neosho Street in Council Grove, Kansas, which is a block north of Custer Oak Park. After an introductory briefing, personal vehicles will join in an escorted caravan to the embarkation point. Vehicles will be parked at the ranch overnight. Camping gear and luggage will be transported to the overnight campsite independent of the wagon train. More detailed instructions and map will be sent with your confirmation after we receive back your application and deposit. All weekend trips begin with a "tenderfeet" meeting Saturday morning. Evening campfire entertainment begins around 8:30 to 9 p.m. After an overnight rest, the wagon train sets out again Sunday morning, returning "old hands" to their vehicles around noon Sunday. Scheduled trips will proceed in all but severe weather.
