About this Event
Amid the beauty of Meadville’s Greendale Cemetery are the stories of the community’s most prolific historical figures. Some played a part in our nation’s history, some brought the area to prominence, and some were just plain characters. Now you can hear their stories while also enjoying a walk amid the beauty of the cemetery’s blooming rhododendrons. Join the Crawford County Historical Society on January 4, 2025 for this one-day only winter walking tour as we give a guided tour of Greendale Cemetery.
Choose from 1 of 3 sessions* to learn about the cemetery’s origins and landmarks as well as how many of those interred there played a role in shaping Crawford County’s Legacy. We will be enjoying the winter weather and scenery as we walk through the cemetery - winter attire and boots/weather dependable shoes required.
