Ever driven or walked around Salisbury and wanted to know more?
Come join me on August 10th at 6pm to get some exercise, learn some history, and maybe cap it off with a great locally made beverage. The tour will last approximately an hour and a half, beginning and ending at New Sarum Brewing Company located at 109 N Lee St, Salisbury, NC 28144. It is open to all ages, with the understanding that some topics discussed will include war, slavery, lynching, and other aspects of our history some people may be uncomfortable with. Expect to walk at least 2 miles, dress appropriately for the weather, and wear comfortable shoes.
The tour is entirely free of charge, but any gratuity given after the tour would be greatly appreciated.
About Aaron: I have 16 years of experience in public history, with lots of research time primarily focused on Rowan County. I am the director of the Rowan Museum, have started writing a county history, and love to talk to anyone who will listen about Salisbury, Rowan County, and North Carolina in general. I don't know it all, though, and I hope to find new avenues of research from talking with folks on the tour about things they have heard about our history.
