The Museums of Historic Hopkinsville-Christian County and the Christian County Master Gardeners invite you to take an evening stroll in Riverside Cemetery on Friday, October 17 at 4pm. The tour will feature identification of trees, discussion of symbolism on historic tombstones, and stories of the lives of people laid to rest in the cemetery.
