This is a repeat of a January event that quickly sold out. DT is happy to provide this opportunity for members who missed the first opportunity. 

This is a tour of African American Heritage and Underground Railroad sites in Downtown Lancaster and the Historic Southeast Area on a small motor coach. Tour guides are Downtowner Sylvia Cavanaugh and well-known Lancaster resident, Nelson Polite Jr. The 2.5 hour tour begins and ends at Southern Market.

Senior citizen (65 and older) rate of $10 must be paid with your registration. Contact Sylvia Cavanaugh if you are under 65 and would like a regular adult ticket at $17. There are only thirteen seats available so register now if you plan to attend. 

Sponsored by the African American Historical Society of South Central Pennsylvania.
