Laurel Hill Cemetery Field Trip June 9, 2012


The field trip to Laurel Hill Cemetery is next Saturday, June 9th. The tour will start promptly at 10 AM. Please plan on arriving between 9:30/9:45 AM so we can get organized. Our tour guide will be Russ Dodge and he will concentrate on Civil War/Military sites.

This is a rain or shine event and is a walking tour so be prepared. It will last 1 1/2 to 2 hours. After the tour you are free to explore the cemetery on your own.

The cost of the tour is $15 per person ($10 for seniors age 65 or older). I will collect the money on the day of the event so you can pay me then. Please try to bring the exact change.

To date, 16 people have signed up so we have room for more. It is open to members of the Round Table and guest. If you have not signed up yet, please contact me to register.

Car pooling is strongly encouraged. Those interested in car pooling are to meet at the West Chester Borough and park closest to the Adams St side since there is a shredding event taking place on that same day. Those car pooling should be there by 8:15 AM and plan on leaving no later than 8:30 AM.

Lunch is on your own. Two suggested places are: (1) Epicure Cafe, 3401 Conrad St., Phila. Pa., or (2) Trolley Car Cafe, 3269 S. Ferry Rd, Phila, Pa.

The address of the Cemetery, for those using a GPS, is 3822 Ridge Ave., Philadelphia, PA 19132. Their telephone number is 215-228-8200.

Please contact me if you have any questions.
