The Finney County Historical Society and Museum’s Historic Walking Tours of Valley View Cemetery have returned. The tours are back after not being held in 2023. Steve Quakenbush, Executive Director of the Finney County Historical Society and Museum, said they weren’t held last year due to an employee health situation that made it impossible to do the tours. “We would have done them otherwise,” he said. “It wasn’t that we had planned to stop doing them, we just had a health situation that just didn’t allow us to guide and run the tours. So, we’re back.” Two tours will be held per night from Oct. 10-12, with one at 6 p.m. and one at 8 p.m. During the tours, attendees can learn about Garden City and Finney County history through reenactments of notable residents by volunteers and through the guidance of Johnetta Hebrlee, Finney County Museum Education Coordinator, and event organizer.
