Perry History Club

Come out this Saturday 10/3 to help support our friends at the Massillon Library. A great chance to tour and hear stories about the people buried in the Massillon Cemetery. We will be there. See if you can find us.

Just a note....Massillon Cemetery will have guides and speakers Saturday at 2.
Might be a fun October adventure after the Artstober event in downtown Massillon.

Join us today!
