This year we made some big leaps and jumped into our walking tour in the Oregon District before we felt truly ready. Kayla Simonton had compiled years worth of research and combed through the best parts to create our script. We set a kickoff date and I started learning the tour and route in what I thought was gonna be plenty of time...
Well, there's an old saying, If you wanna make God laugh, make a plan... we had a huge event planned at a location that sadly had to close their doors. It threw us into action mode because of the revenue lost and we expeditiously walked our path over and over and over in a matter of 2 days in thunderstorms. We were soaked to the bone, freezing and exhausted. But, we had it down, and that weekend of our cancelled event we ran our first District After Dark Tour.
It was a success! We have met so many wonderful business owners, new guests and many out of towners! I think the actual state of Oregon is the farthest distance so far! We have fallen in love with everything the Oregon District is, tree lined streets, brick lined streets... and all the wonderful people!! We are truly humbled by this entire experience. We have one night of this season left for this particular tour! Join us October 24th at 7pm to learn the history and possibly experience a few hauntings along the way!
I'm not gonna lie, this past weekend at ISS Ryan Humberger presented us with this thoughtful gift and Kayla and I's allergies started acting up.... haha we definitely didn't get teary eyed AT ALL. This thoughtful gift is not only beautiful, it encompasses the true Magic that we feel every time we step foot in the district. Thank you for this Ryan, this piece means more to us than you know.
We can't wait to see you all for our last night of the season! Grab your tickets on our website! Link in About Section in bio. We are also going to be starting our search for some walking tour guides for next season! Stay tuned!
