A group of fourth- through sixth-grade students played games while learning the history of Ridgefield during the Civil War at the Keeler Kids camp at the Keeler Tavern and Museum this week.

The program demonstrated life during the Civil War with a particular focus on the Ridgefield area. Children took part in engaging, historic-themed activities such as marching, quill pen letter writing, button making and cooking authentic food of the time.

From July 8 through 12, children in grades one through three also participated in camp with a Colonial theme.

Keeler Tavern holds the Keeler Kids camp annually with different themes each year.
