to the public for tours. Our participants are quite literally getting an exclusive and rare
experience to appreciate the historic charm and characteristics of each,” said Jennifer

to sell out fast. Laura Rager, Museum Director for the Center for History, and I can’t wait
to show you what all this tour has in store.”
