It looks like that's this Saturday, the 24th, not Halloween. It's right down the road from me, I'll have to check it out! (After my yard sale, LOL!)

 

Oakwood Lantern Walk
Date: Saturday, October 31, 2009
Times: 6:00pm-10:00pm
Location: Oakwood Cemetery 701 Oakwood Avenue Raleigh
Cost: $6.00 per person over 11 years of age; $3.00 for ages 6-11; and free for
under 6 years of age.

Contact: oakwood_lantern_walk@hotmail.com

The annual Oakwood Lantern Walk is a family-oriented program of interesting historical vignettes of life (and death) during the War Between the States. The tour is held annually on the last Saturday in October in the Confederate section of Raleigh’s Oakwood Cemetery. You’ll follow a lantern-carrying guide (in period attire) down the luminary-lined path among the headstones of the 1400 Confederate veterans buried in Oakwood, to each of the skits portraying an event from the Confederate past.

The Lantern Walk is hosted by the Col. L. L. Polk camp (Sons of Confederate Veterans) of Garner, with help from local re-enactors and volunteers. All proceeds go towards the upkeep and continued restoration of Oakwood’s Confederate section. The tour takes about an hour to complete; with tour groups leaving approximately every 15 minutes. Refreshments are served at the end of the tour in the House of Memory.

 

Anything good in the yard sale?

 

I'll post it in the 4042 classifieds, probably tomorrow or Wednesday, with a list of the types of stuff once I get it figured out. From the huge pile of stuff in my living room & dining room, I hope there's good stuff! :lol:
