Historic Preservation Board Looking For Guides

The town's Historic Preservation Board will conduct two training sessions for residents interested in serving as volunteer guides for the board's neighborhood block party tours.

The training sessions will be held from 9:30 to 11: 30 a.m. next Thursday and May 16 at Mt. Lebanon Public Library. Tours will take place on weekends between Memorial Day and Labor Day.

The free 40-minute tours, started last summer, are given by volunteers at the request of residents during summer block parties. The tour guide researches information about the history and architecture of homes on the street and provides residents with an overview of Mt. Lebanon history and the subdivision in which the street is located.

Volunteer guides are asked to lead at least two block party tours over the summer, if their schedules permit. For details, contact Susan Morgans at 412-343-3780 or smorgans@mtlebanon.org.
