The guided tours offer residents a ride on the Chillicothe Trolley as it visits areas of the city with connections to each of the United States’ involved wars, from the American Revolution to the modern conflicts in the Middle East.
Local historian Bob Leach will be guiding the hour-long tours which will depart from the Chillicothe Transit Hub at the corner of Watt and Seventh Streets at 10:00 a.m. and 11:00 a.m.
“This military history tour is to highlight the fact that Chillicothe and Ross County has military history connected to all of American history, much more than some people realize,” said Leach in a recent conversation with iHeartMedia Chillicothe Reporter, Kevin Coleman.
Reservations are required and can be made by calling the Chillicothe Transit Office at 740-773-1569.
