A flavorful walk
For the second straight year, a walk through the Senator Walter Lowrie House, at 123 W. Diamond St. in Butler yielded tasty rewards.
A Christmas Cookie Walk was held to raise money for the Butler County Historical Society. For $10, participants were given a box that they carried to four different rooms inside the historic house, filling it up with choices from a variety of cookies handmade by volunteers.
“The fundraising is part of why we do this,” said Jennifer Ford, the society’s executive director. “But the other reason is community engagement. Some people decide to come back for tours and end up getting more involved.”
On Dec. 16 at 7 p.m., the Lowrie House will host two Butler County historians who will speak about Christmas in the past and how it was celebrated.
