Dear Coalition Friends:
Once again this Spring, WalkingTown DC offers more than 100 free walking and bike tours throughout Washington on Saturday and Sunday, May 22nd and 23rd. A number of tours include destinations on the National Mall and nearby neighborhoods.
Unfortunately, we have had to CANCEL the new tour sponsored by the National Coalition to Save Our Mall scheduled for Saturday from 1-2:30 p.m.: The Washington Monument Grounds: A Walk Through the Past, Present and Future. We will reschedule this tour for the Fall Edition of WalkingTownDC.
To see the full list of tours on Saturday and Sunday, visit Cultural Tourism DC website.
