Underground Railroad Bus Tour – departs at 1 p.m., Thursday, Feb. 18, from Wade Hall – Back for the fourth consecutive year, the Underground Railroad Bus Tour will take participants on a journey to explore some of the various locations throughout the River Bend area where slaves sought refuge as they escaped the South.
