Wear comfortable shoes, prepare for paved-incline walking and although backlit, bring a flashlight to navigate the paths. The tour path was originally designed for horse and buggy but is ADA compliant. There will be handicapped-only parking available at the cemetery.presented by the Globe Downtown Association in conjunction with the Copper Cities Community Players from the Cobre Valley Center for the Arts and the Globe-Miami Chamber of Commerce.
