Pony Express Story class in Old Sac

I have been requested to do the Pony Express Story in old Sacramento. Class will be from 10:00 - 12::00 on October 1st. Cost is $35.00 per family. Here is the information:
      October 1st -The Adventures of the Pony Express  
 
Howdy partners. Come along with Ranger Bruce and
learn about the Pony Express. The mail was delivered to Sacramento from St.
Joseph, Mo. Believe it or not mail got through in 10 days. Men and boys risked
their lives to get the mail past the Indians, buffalo stampedes, and prairie
fires. I will teach you about one very famous 11 year old boy, from right here
in Sacramento, who rode for the Pony Express. He became a living legend. 
Many of the riders went on to become world famous. Some joined up with Buffalo
Bill and traveled the world. You will learn about the young girl named “Little
Miss Sure Shot” and some of her incredible marksmanship. Yes, you guessed it,
Annie Oakley. You young gals will want to learn about her. Ranger Bruce will
give every student a playing card, shot through the center heart, by Annie.
(reproduction)  She liked to shoot the middle heart, on the 5 of hearts.
Take a look at a playing card. Could you hit the card at all at 100 feet? 
Join me in old Sacramento for a fun lesson.  Time – 10:00 – 12:00 
Cost - $35.00 per family. Meet me in front of the RR museum. Parents &
grandparents are always free!         
It should be fun for all. After we will visit an old one room
 schoolhouse and Ranger Bruce will teach you all about school in the 1880's.
Contact Bruce if you want to attend. 916-725-3630
