Ida Cemetery, you can pull right into the cemetery and park along the roadways. Weather permitting, we will take a tour of the cemetery. We will then walk from the cemetery to the Mt. Ida Preservation Hall (Church of the Ascension). There we will have a talk on the building and the stain glassed windows. The owner of the former Farnham Institute (formerly a school connected to the Church of the Ascension) has invited us into the building which is located directly across the street from the Hall. The building has been converted into a private residence. The first floor retains its original floor plan and is used as an art space. > The walk from the cemetery to the Hall is a short distance but there is major construction all along the way. with little if any sidewalk. There is no closer parking available because of the construction. > Brant Caird and/or Ned Pratt will be hosting us. We should meet promptly at 6:45 as it gets dark early, hopefully it will not be raining. I assume if it is raining we will meet and walk directly to the Hall, everyone should be prepared to walk just short of a typical city block. >Please respond if you plan on attending so that we can get an idea of attendance. > > >Kristin Cooney-Ayotte > >Like > > > > > > >===NY-IRISH-GENSOC Mailing List=== >Time for Society Members to pay up their **2012 Dues**.
