Twilight Tour of Graceland Cemetery

On June 17 at 7 p.m. our popular Twilight Tour of Graceland Cemetery will return.

Society President Rich Wallace and board secretary Linda DeVelvis will lead tour participants to the final resting places of some of Sidney’s most prominent or infamous citizens. Their lives and contributions will be discussed, as will the interesting gravestones along the way.

Last year we discussed the lives of Civil War veterans, an inventor, immigrants, a gold rush 49-er, and the symbolism of a tree tombstone. What will be discussed this year? What new histories of Shelby County will you learn? Join us to find out!

The tour is free and open to the public, although donations are appreciated. Hours of research and staff hours go into preparing a program of this size. Graceland Cemetery is located off of 25-A heading south out of downtown Sidney. We hope to see you there!
