Philadelphians have achieved a variety of notable accomplishments. We will learn about the knowns and the unknowns as we take a bus tours of Laurel Hill Cemetery. Minimal walking required – transportation is included, we will stay in the climate-controlled bus, with warm beverages.
2/12 – This Sporting Life at Laurel Hill West
“Laurel Hill West is the final resting place for many sports Hall of Fame members–two for baseball, two for tennis, two for skiing and snowboarding, plus hockey and college football and golf. You’ll meet the man who invented progressive resistance weightlifting, the first woman to drive a golf ball more than 300 yards, and a tennis player who was also a spy for the CIA. It’s a long walk around the cemetery, so wear good walking shoes.”
