WALKIN' AROUND TOWNE

The Orange Community Historical Society has opened the 2009 season of downtown Orange walking tours, which will run through October. The tours lead visitors

through the heart of Old Towne Orange: the Plaza. Trained docents share the story of Orange’s founding, the significance of some of its downtown buildings

(like the old opera house and the theater), and the fascinating evolution of Orange, once a small town known as Richland. (NOTE: Tours do not include private homes.)
OCHS will offer walking tours the second Saturday of the month at 10 a.m. and the fourth Sunday of the month at 4 p.m. 

Following are the dates for the 2009 season:

4 p.m. on Sunday, June 28, July  26, August 23, September 27, October 25.
Each tour lasts approximately 90 minutes. It is recommended that walkers wear comfortable shoes. 
Tours start at the Orange Main Library and History Center, located at 407 E.. Chapman Ave.

preservation of historical photographs, and other history-related projects.
