You can find why some towns in Carroll County no longer exist October 8th on the 2nd annual Carroll County Ghost Town Tour. President of the Carroll County Historical Society, Barbara Hackfort, advises you should arrive at the Carroll County Historical Museum early.
Departing from the Historical Society, the route heads south out of Carroll to Roselle and winds its way to Carrollton.
Kuemper High School is supplying the bus and there are only 49 seats. $20 tickets go fast. Hackfort explains how to get yours.
Hackfort points out why these towns began and why they no longer exist.
If you cannot make the tour, Hackfort shares a quaint tale she’ll be retelling on the tour as it passes Swan Lake.
If you think 3 hours on a bus is too long, rest stops to stretch your legs will be at the halfway mark and again in Carrollton.
