The Missouri-Yellowstone Confluence Interpretive Center near Williston will host its March Confluence Learning Lab on Saturday, March 28, 2-3 p.m. Travel through time at "Transportation at the Confluence" to experience firsthand how transportation shaped communication, trade, survival, and daily life at the Confluence.

During this movement-based learning lab, use teamwork, problem-solving, and hands-on challenges to complete our transportation-themed obstacle course. Discover how people moved through the Missouri–Yellowstone Confluence from the time of Indigenous trails and river crossings to wagons and railroads.

 This event is part of the ND250 commemoration celebrating our country’s 250th birthday.
