16th Annual Cemetery Walk: If Tombstones Could Talk
Step back in time as six fascinating figures from Oconto County’s past are brought to life by local actors. Presented by the Oconto County Historical Society, this annual event shares the stories of both well-known residents and lesser-known individuals who helped shape the community.
This year’s featured lineup includes Rose Brown, Elizabeth “Libby” Brazeau, Josephine “Josie” Cook, Milton “Squirrel” Carriveau, George Parker and the Honorable John Wiebusch.
The Cemetery Walk will begin at 6 p.m. on September 14 and 15 at the Oconto Catholic Cemetery, 3024 N. River Road. A special auditorium presentation will be held at 6 p.m. on September 16 at the Oconto High School Auditorium, 1717 Superior Avenue.
Tickets are $15 and go on sale August 1 at the Beyer Home Museum Carriage Office, 917 Park Avenue in Oconto. The office is open from noon to 4 p.m. Tickets are limited and traditionally sell quickly.
In case of rain, performances will be held at the Oconto High School Auditorium. For more information, contact Lynn at 920-835-4619 or lynnexferd@hotmail.com.
