5 Features of the tours in this new series: One sheet tri-fold, 8 ½ " x 11 " Fewer stops on each tour/more overall A loop circuit of sites within a smaller walk area Liberally plagiarizes research of others; More details and illustrations Sites are more inclusive and representative of the town as a whole

6 Features of this first tour in the series: 17 stops instead of original 27 located along Main, from Broad to Third, then along Howard back to the beginning

7 although it has fewer stops, it includes some not on the original, such as the school, fire house, Cole Dairy (501 Main)

8 Another tour in the series will include: 14-16 stops in a loop from 503 Bank Ave. to 109 Bank, returning back by Carriage House Lane and Penn St.

9 The Walking Tour Series plans include for at least two or three more tours plus a separate Childrens Tour.

10 Think about… what can be included for a tour on the other side of the tracks. other themes, e.g. Churches, Things That Arent There Anymore what a newcomer would want to know that is not covered in the pamphlet.
