Please arrive 30 min before the scheduled time as we will be leaving exactly at the time of the scheduled trip . Parking will be available at the Carver branch Library. This is where we will meet to load onto the chartered bus.
From the Carver Library on 3350 E Commerce Street, we will take a ride to visit a host of monumental sites including:
The MLK Park
SA MLK March Route(the largest march in the nation)
Martin Luther King Plaza
The Carver Community Cultural Center... and more
As we tour the city, we will explain the history and cultural significance of the places we visit. As the city grows and changes, as the “Eastside” (historically considered the Black side of town) becomes more gentrified, as historical locations and landmarks are being demolished or forgotten- we are doing our best to help preserve our own history and tell our own story.
The tour will take place on a modern 56 passenger charter bus which includes the following amenities:
Unobstructed View of Scenery
Tinted Windows
Controlled Climate System
Reclining Seats and Footrest
