Mr. Lincoln’s Birthday Celebration and Girl Scout Badge Opportunity - Feb. 9th - Free

Join us for a meet-and-greet with President Abraham Lincoln and help us celebrate his 210th birthday on Saturday, February 9th at David Davis Mansion State Historic Site! This free event starts at 9am with tours every half hour through 3:30pm. Children and their families will get to talk with Mr. Lincoln and take pictures with him at the home of one of Lincoln's closest friends and political allies, Judge David Davis. Through tall tales and amusing stories told by President Lincoln and mansion volunteers, visitors will learn about Lincoln's life and his relationship with U.S. Supreme Court Justice Davis. There will be birthday cake for everyone, and a chance to make an Abe Lincoln-themed craft to take home. 

** NEW THIS YEAR: Girl Scouts will have the opportunity to complete requirements to earn the Land of Lincoln badge from 9am to 11am during the Lincoln's Birthday event. NOTE:  Advance registration is required for the GS badge opportunity. Please contact the David Davis Mansion Visitor Center between 9am and 3:30pm Wednesdays-Saturdays through Wednesday, February 6th.
