Learn the history of Centerville in Saturday Walking Tour

Timothy Swenson will answer questions about local buildings

Join local historian Timothy Swenson of the Washington Township Museum of Local History as he delves into the history of the Centerville area. The one and a half hour walking tour will take place on Saturday, August 17 beginning at 10am. The tour will begin in front of Holy Spirit Church, before heading down Fremont Boulevard to Thornton Avenue, and returning on the other side of Fremont Boulevard.

Participants will learn historical information on a number of buildings, (some of which are no longer standing), in the historic downtown/business area of Centerville. Join us on the walking tour to learn the answers to your questions about days gone by!

This event is free with donations gladly accepted, and is open to all interested citizens and visitors of Fremont. Children and students are welcome. Tour booklets will be available on the tour.
