Backroads Tour a Success!

The 2011 Backroads Tour of the Milton-Belvidere-Waumandee area was a great success! A group of tourgoers were able to see some beautiful sites along the route while also being able to delight in some wonderful food from the women of St. Boniface Catholic Church. The tour ending point had to be changed from St. Boniface Catholic Church to Harmonia Hall because of a funeral, but the tour information was able to stay the same and a good time was had by all.

For those who were unable to attend, tour books can still be purchased at our office for $5.00, and the tour can be driven at any time, we just ask that you not try to go on any private property that had been allowed for the tour date without asking the property owners. If you have an idea for a tour location for 2012, or would like to have your historic home, building or site included in the 2012 tour, please let us know as we are already looking for a route for next fall!
