The event begins on "Hessian Hill" at the top of the Park at 1pm; after the first part of the tour, visitors will caravan with their cars to the Barnett House on Caretaker's Road. There, beginning about 2 pm, the second phase of the tour will take place, followed by a visit to the Tory Fort on the other side of the Walloomsac River. Cider and donuts, the pit cooking demonstration, and the children's' crafts will take place at the Barnett House location. Guests can attend all or part of the tour.
