A prairie schooner is a type of covered wagon used by pioneers in the 19th century. It consists of several key parts, including a wooden wagon box, canvas cover, wagon wheels, axles, and a wagon tongue for steering. The wagon box is typically made of wooden planks and serves as the main compartment for carrying cargo and passengers. The canvas cover provides protection from the elements, while the wagon wheels and axles allow for mobility and transportation on rough terrain. The wagon tongue is attached to the front of the wagon and is used to steer and guide the prairie schooner.
The fastest schooner named "America" was built in New York City in 1851.
Eden Prairie's Schooner Days is generally considered safe. It is a community event involving activities like parades, entertainment, and food vendors. However, it's always wise to be cautious in crowded areas and follow any safety guidelines provided by event organizers.
A schooner is not a standard measure. In the UK it can be a relatively large sherry glass or a bigger glass used for beer or cider (2/3 pint). In Newcastle, (England) though, it is a 1/2 pint glass used for serving brown ale. In Australia, a schooner could be a 10 oz or 15 oz glass. So take your pick!
The plural for prairie is prairies.
