ALL ABOUT TOURS by
Jay and Janet Harris
ANNOUNCING THE JULY TOUR Plans are being finalized for a fantastic look into the past as we visit the 109 year old Balboa Park Carousel. This will be a private tour, including a docent to give us the fascinating history of this very special machine. It was built in New York by the Herschell-Spillman Company in 1910 and spent three years in Los Angeles before being shipped to Coronado's Tent City, and finally to Balboa Park in 1922. Various owners operated it in the park, where it was permanently installed at it's current location in 1968. We will learn all about it's many owners through the years, and will complete our tour with a five minute ride on it's historic wooden horses. The Friends of Balboa Park now operate the carousel and charge a flat $200 for a private visit, no matter how few or how many people sign up. The likely date of our tour will be Friday, July 19th, but the final date is not yet confirmed. There will be a signup sheet at the July meeting, and the confirmed date will be announced. We are hoping for a strong turnout, keeping the per-person price low. Lunch at a local restaurant will follow. Stay tuned!! Jay and Janet
