Join us for a journey through Miller Park’s changing landscape and a discussion of the role of leisure in Lynchburg’s history. From reflecting pools and botanic gardens, to sports, music, and festivals, Miller Park, previously named “City Park,” has been a civic and cultural source of pride since its inception. This casual, 60-minute guided walking tour includes stops at the Aviary, Firemen’s Memorial Fountain, and Centennial Oak Tree.
