Docent Tour

On August 5, the volunteer Old State Capitol docents were treated to a trip to Perryville battlefield and Shakertown. We had lunch at Shakertown.

Along for the trip were, among the docents,  Richard Reis, Carole Mahoney, Wayne Roberts, Steven Pace and me. Also present were Phyllis Gilman, Volunteer Coordinator, Leslie McWhorter, Education Coordinator, and Asley Chilton of the KHS statt. Phyllis drove the van.

Stuart Sanders of the Kentucky Historical Society met us at the battlefield and dircted our tour. Stuart is a former manager and historian at the battlefied.  He is now a historian with KHS.

Susan Hughes, also a former staff member at KHS, was our docent at Shakertown. She is the wife on Nickie Hughes who was with KHS at one time.
