On Sunday, May 18 from 1:00pm to 4:00pm, the Historical Society presents their annual Cemetery Walk in Palatine's Hillside Cemetery, located on Smith Road in Palatine, just north of Colfax Street. This year's walk will feature costumed actors telling the stories of past heroes of Palatine. Tickets are $5 for adults, $4 for Palatine Historical Society Members, and $2 for children ages 7 to 15. Tickets can be purchased at the Cemetery on the day of the event. Tours will start every ten minutes, with the last tour beginning at 3:30pm.
