Description

Jim Barfield returns for another walking tour of historic Rose Hill. Jim Barfield will lead our fall Rose Hill Ramble. We will meet at the main gate at 2 p.m. The Ramble will focus on Central Avenue and the area to its left. Rose Hill Rambles are conducted in the historic Rose Hill Cemetery and require participants to cross uneven terrain at times and be able to walk and/or stand for about 1.5 hours. The tour is free for members of the Friends of Rose Hill and $5 for the general public. Historic Macon Foundation (HMF) is a national leader in preservation and a role model for revitalization efforts throughout the country. Our innovative real estate tactics, state and federal tax credit consulting services, advocacy efforts with our Fading Five list of endangered places, educational programing, and low interest loan programs allow Historic Macon to transform our community and demonstrate the powerful impact of saving historic places. We've completed nearly 150 houses and kept 25,000 tons of debris out of the landfill. Just since 2014 we've attracted $5.8M in investments in our target neighborhood, Beall's Hill. Our work allows citizens to take preservation into their own hands. With the help of our community, we are proving that Macon is Preservation.
