The Perry Historians are hosting their 2nd Annual "On the Trail of Perry County History" on Saturday, March 27, 2010. This time we'll be following the route of the Newport and Shermans Valley Railroad, a narrow gage line that ran through the heart of Perry County. We'll be navigating its path from Newport to its end near Big Spring State Park (aka The Hemlocks) in Toboyne Township. We'll be gathering at the Newport Plaza (Dollar General) Parking Lot by no later than 7:45 a.m.. Bus pulls out at 8:00 a.m. SHARP! All persons must be aboard the bus - NO cars! Lunch will be provided by the women of the Blain zion Lutheran Church and will consist of ham loaf, scalloped potatoes, green beans, pinapple-breadpudding, and beverages... and plenty of delicious homemade pies for desert. The all-inclusive cost is $30 per person. Deadline for reservations and payment is February 28th. Seating is limited and will be filled on a first-come first-served basis. Wear comfortable shoes as there may be some walking. For a reservation form or for questions concerning the trip, please address to Donna Heller Zinn at Donna@ThePerryHistorians.org.
