Dayton History is proud to introduce its newest assemblage of volunteers, the Carillon Belles and Beaus. This group consists of girls and boys ages 11 to 18 who share an interest in volunteering with Dayton History and participating in historic activities.
Belles and Beaus can participate in events around the Dayton area, and in the past have walked with Dayton History in the 2006 Kettering Holiday at Home Parade and demonstrated period games at the Patterson Memorial Homestead’s Traditional 19th Century Afternoon Tea.
The Carillon Belles and Beaus meet every Sunday from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. at Carillon Historical Park. For more information please contact Lisa Martin at 293-2841, ext. 130.
