Historic Homer Tours

While remaining in isolation, I see more residents strolling along Homer's streets. A good time to enjoy: several "blue" historical signs, architecture- the Octagon house, Cabbage house, Sunflower house , the Tower building that once stood above the Railroad tracks, grand Victorian homes and more.

Every time customers need to enter the bank or Homer History Center, they pull into a big parking lot. These buildings once stood there. As much as we need and use parking, they replace previous structures.

While the snow piles up and the wind is fiercely blowing, it is a good time to check out FB: You Know You Are From Homer and/or Memories of Cortland. Long time residents will recall fond memories and newbies to our area will learn about many fond places and activities of yesteryear I will be available for warm walks and tours soon, as the snow melts and spring time is welcomed 2020.

Update: The Little White Church on the Green is still undergoing renovations and is not "up to code" yet. Therefore, no events can be planned there until given approval. I continue to conduct tours at the History Center, Key Bank, and through out the historic village as requested. The volunteers at the Center welcome visitors Fridays and Saturdays 10-2 and by appointment for research, displays and program planning.

Most Fridays from 10 to 12, I volunteer at the Homer History Center @Key Bank, Homer, greeting visitors to the Center, sometimes offering a mini tour of the museum and exhibits or assisting in family researches. Recently, this unusual artifact was found in a village home and was donated to the HHC. Does anyone know what it was used for? Please send your info to me or stop in and lets talk!
