Lowell Cemetery Tours – Save the Dates

Here are the dates for this fall’s tours of Lowell Cemetery:

Friday, September 21, 2012 at 1 pm

Saturday, September 22, 2012 at 10 am

All of these tours begin and end at the Knapp Avenue entrance which is just behind Shedd Park. The tours take approximately 90 minutes and involve walking through the cemetery. They take place rain or shine, are free, and require no advance registration.

Last spring’s tours all started at the Lawrence Street Gate and covered that half of the cemetery. In the fall we’ll begin at Knapp Avenue and cover that part. There will be some overlap with what was covered in prior years’ tours but there will also be much that is new. Please save the dates and join us if you can.

    The cemetery is beautiful all year long, but the Fall is so nice. I have been going in the cemetery my whole life. I also find something new on the tour.

    I’ve had the pleasure of taking this tour which is guided by Richard Howe. He is an outstanding guide and provides an interesting way to learn about some of Lowell’s history and famous people.
