Patriots’ Day is coming soon! Get in the spirit by taking a nice walk while learning about some important Acton history. Because of the popularity of these offerings last year, extra Acton Center tours have been scheduled with tour leader Amy Cole. Since its founding in 1735, Acton has shown courage in protecting its liberties, as demonstrated in leading the first engagement in the fight for independence.  Walking Acton’s historic civic center, you will learn about the people, places and practices that shaped the town’s history and our nation’s as well. Topics will include Native American history, the role of the church, the importance of Captain Isaac Davis and the Acton Minutemen, nearby historic buildings, memorials and more. The mile walk will take a little less than two hours.
