History in our own backyard

October Event
History Mystery Tour
Fairmount Cemetery
All cemeteries have a bit of mystery that goes along with their history. Join us to walk the grounds at Fairmont with our docent to learn the histories and some unique & quirky mysteries of the cemetery and its inhabitants. The goal of the 2 hour walking tour is to enlighten not frighten. Mobility assistance devices are welcome. Bring good walking shoes, hats, sunscreen and water.
