You can stay all day in this excellent museum. There are lots of Remington's, O'Keefee's, and other surprises to be found. All the staff were so helpful answering my questions. The Hall of Fame Sports Museum is next door. Treat yourself to this American Treasure!! Try to go to the Indian Market at the museum held in June. more
