About this Event

Come along on a ghostly outdoor adventure!

As you walk along the winding paths of Lexington's oldest graveyard, hear from John Parker, leader of the Lexington militia on the fateful first day of the American Revolution, Sarah Childs, who lost six children during an epidemic in 1778, and more!
