The new, updated Palmyra village walking tour was in development for two years by the Palmyra Area Revitalization Committee (PARC.) In consultation with the Historical Society regarding facts and accuracy, PARC members researched, wrote, expanded, and edited the previous version of the walking tour. PARC received assistance from the County with formatting, design and color printing.
