You Died HOW? an Oakwood Cemetery walking tour (Troy)

August 22, 2017 @ 6:00 pm - 8:00 pm

When: Tuesday, Aug 22, 2017 – 6:00 PM to 8:00 PM
Where: Oakwood Cemetery, 50 101st Street Troy, NY 12180
Cost: $15.pp,

We will meet at the chapel flagpole and drive to a selected section of the cemetery. Then we will do a walking tour of that area with Rens Co Historian Kathy Sheehan who will share bizarre stories of how some of the ‘residents’ died. This is the first in a new series. Future “You Died How?” tours will visit a different section for each tour.

Call 1-800-556-6273 to register with your name and phone number. If weather conditions force a reschedule we will call you. $15. per person. Pay on arrival by cash or check. Children under 12 are free but this topic is probably not suitable for children under 8.

This tour is presented by the Friends of Oakwood Cemetery, an all volunteer organization dedicated to the preservation of this not-for-profit, non-sectarian 19th C cemetery and its National Historic Landmark Gardner Earl Chapel.
