As the Homeschool Day at Silver Dollar City approaches we want to make sure those of you that are planning or want to attend are able to enjoy everything. But please let me stress that the workshops that you have to pre-register for and pay for are filling up fast. Unknown to any of us, people started calling in on Monday and registering and one of the classes is all ready almost full! So, don’t want until the 24th to call in and pre-register DO IT NOW.
For those that wanted more information about the cooking class that cost $10 is as follows:
The Culinary & Craft School salutes the Great American Cowgirl with three great western recipes, perfect for Homeschool students ages 8 and up. We will jump in the saddle with a presentation on Southwestern Potato Salad made with red potatoes and a zesty seasoning. You’ll also learn to make a hearty meal with our Campfire Baked Beans, loaded with savory sausage. And for a sensational side, we’ll show you how to make crisp Corn Fritters, drizzled with Silver Dollar City’s own sauce. During the 4pm class, learn kid-friendly cooking tips as Debbie walks through each dish and then take the recipes home to recreate them yourself!

These classes are not recommended for children ages 8 and under; parents/guardians please use your discretion when making reservations.
