To answer your question...

We are part history museum, part science center.  I am
in charge of the history part!  I subscribe to this
list for ideas to pass along to our Science Director
and Planetarium Director.

I have written a book called "Canton's West Lawn
Cemetery," which is where President McKinley was
originally buried before his monument was finished. 
We own and operate the monument, which is on our
grounds, and we are adjacent to the cemetery.

I do cemetery walks 2-3 times a year, and every one
has a waiting list.  I hardly advertise it, outside of
our newsletter and posters and flyers in-house. 
Cemeteries are one of those things that lots of people
are interested in, but no one wants to admit it!  When
you do a program where they will find "others like
them," they show up in droves!!
