SUMMARY:Women's History Walking Tour
DESCRIPTION:  \nExperience the Waterford National Historic Landmark on a guided historic walking tour!  In 1970 the Secretary of the Interior designated Waterford and its rural surround a National Historic Landmark. Well into the 20th century\, most Americans lived and worked on farms or in small towns like this one. Few of these places have remained much as they were. Waterford\, miraculously\, is one that has. Walk with us through time for clues to Waterford’s character and tenacity. It is a story of ordinary people who did extraordinary things. They built a thriving town from wilderness; they endured a long and bloody war that threatened to destroy their home; and in good times and bad they held tightly to their vision of a special place. Preserving the village and its setting as a national site for everyone is the principal mission of the Waterford Foundation. \nThis month’s walking tour theme is Women’s History. Come see the Village in which women owned businesses along Main Street and marketed their trade\, three Quaker women wrote the Waterford News calling for a Union victory in the midst of the Civil War\, and more! \nOn your tour\, you will see houses from the mid 18th century to the 21st. The tour begins at the Old School and covers the entire village in about 90 minutes. Tours will run rain or shine\, so come dressed for the weather and wear comfortable walking shoes. \nRegister Here
