We had a mysterious guest in the Hardin Prairie!

Bigfoot is believed to follow rivers like the Platte and frequents salt licks like encrusted salt found in Lincoln’s local saline wetlands. It seems this saline sasquatch likes to wander and made it all the way to Hardin Hall. Could this really be him?!

A couple of weeks ago, the PBT crew teamed up with "Team Tiny Feet," a Destination Imagination team with students from Sheridan Elementary and Prairie Hill. This team has researched and crafted a story of the discovery of a Bigfoot tooth artifact found in the Platte River believed to have been lost by Meriwether Lewis. This discovery ultimately ties in characters like Daniel Boone, big-wig investigators, a school janitor, and a friendly beaver.
