Relaxing After the Walk
Description:
It was another beautiful summer evening for an educational walk through downtown Powell. A sold-out tour learned about some of the early schools and businesses and the evolution of Powell through the years.
This was the last tour of the year, but plan on joining us next year for a tour of the Powell Cemetery and/or the downtown tour.
