2017 15th Annual Sebastopol Cemetery Walk
Join us for the 15th Annual Barbara Bull Memorial Sebastopol Cemetery Walk
presented by The Western Sonoma County Historical Society
Friday & Saturday night October 6 & 7, 2017
This is a Sell-Out event!
Colorful actors present six dramatic performances depicting snapshots in the lives of Sebastopol residents that made an impact on the community before they passed. Each person has a unique story and the vignettes are designed tell a little of their life and to deliver a bit of history on the local characters.
The evening begins with a Soup, salad, antipasto & bread supper, held at St. Stephen's Episcopal Church located at 500 Robinson Road (off Bodega Avenue) in Sebastopol. Plenty of event parking is available at the Church. Please arrive at least 15 minutes before your show time.
After your supper, your group will be lead to Sebastopol Memorial Lawn Cemetery by a tour guide and the music of the very popular Hubbub Club who describe themselves as "a cross between a New Orleans marching band and a Fellini movie".
At the Cemetery, your tour guide will lead you through the luminary-lit route to each of the six vignettes which include:
Jean Fisher: A fond memorial tribute to a longtime Western Sonoma County Historical Society volunteer and cemetery walk contributor.
Ira Troberidge Ward, 1844-1926: Ira's love for his wife, Amanda, lasted more than 50 years, while the store he built in Freestone has lasted to this day.
Mary Chandler DaVall, 1841-1913: The wife of a farmer and mother of four, Mary's love of family is reflected in letters to her beloved sister in Pennsylvania.
Grace Craig Ratzlaff Neumann, 1908-1990: In 1927, this Analy grad wrote poetically of roses and marigolds - and prophetically of her life to come.
Mary Orendorff Camron, 1794-1875, and Elizabeth Camron Berry, 1813-1891: Mother and daughter companion pieces about the Cameron family's overland journey from Iowa to California in 1849, and the Berry's subsequent journey three years later.
The evening ends with homemade Apple Crisp dessert, coffee and tea at the historic Burbank Gold Ridge Farm Cottage.
You tour guide will lead you back to the Church parking lot and your car.
