"Dillinger & the Eastside Notables" walking tour will take place on Sunday, April 16, at 2:00 p.m. The tour will depart from the Waiting Station, located just inside the 34th and Boulevard Place gate. The tour will last 1 ½ - 2 hours and will include the sections just north of the Waiting Station, which is a part of the cemetery not regularly covered on other walking tours. Bank robber John Dillinger's grave will of course be one of our destinations, but we will also stop at the graves of noted artists, businessmen, palm readers, public health pioneers, Indiana's first black attorney, and others, who, although unknown, have memorialized themselves with some rather unique monuments.
The cost of the tour is $5 for adults, $4 for seniors and $2 for children. All proceeds benefit the Crown Hill Heritage Foundation's educational and restoration programs.
This tour is part of our monthly tour series. Our next scheduled walking tour will be held on Sunday, May 21, at 2:00 p.m. and theme is "Civil War Personalities."
