Downtown Tour



I enjoyed my experience as a group leader, and teaching younger students about our town's past. It is very important to teach our future generations about the past, because if you don't teach then it gets forgotten and seems like it never happened. By far the most interesting thing I learned about, while preparing for the tour was that there once were 85 businesses in downtown Roanoke. This is interesting to me because our population has increased since then and we can barely keep those businesses running. All  in all I think this class in a great, learning experience for anyone taking the class.
