VANCOUVER – The Clark County Historical Museum will feature Vancouver’s Main Streets and the people who helped shape the community when it kicks off its 2024 Wander Clark County Summer Walking Tour Series on Sat., June 29 at 9 a.m.
This annual and popular series offers Clark County residents and visitors the opportunity to visit several of the area’s most fascinating neighborhoods and city centers. This year’s tours will highlight the following locations:
• Jun 29 Old City Cemetery
• Jul 13 Celebrate Main Street: Historic Ridgefield
• Jul 27 Celebrate Main Street: Old Town Battle Ground
• Aug 10 That’s Entertainment: Celebrating Downtown Vancouver
• Aug 24 (Her)Story: Remarkable Women of Clark County

“Summer is the right time to wander through and learn the stories of people who have lived, worked, and carved out their places in Clark County,” said Brad Richardson, CCHM executive director. “Our history tours are a fascinating glimpse through the windows of time, offering a mix of memories, research, and architectural details.”
Guides will lead up to 30 people for approximately a mile, making frequent stops along the way to view buildings, tell stories, and answer questions. Good walking shoes and balance aids are recommended; terrain varies and, except for Old City Cemetery, consists mostly of city sidewalks.
All are welcome on the tours, though they are best suited for those 13 years and older. Tours happen rain or shine. Please dress and hydrate appropriately. There are no restroom stops on the tours.
Tickets are $10 for non-members. CCHM members are free but RSVP is required. To make your tour reservation, visit https://cchmuseum.org/programs-events/wandercc/.
