Walking Historical Oakmont - Friday
Special Event | FULL (Membership Required)
Oakmont is more than the U.S. Open Golf (10 times) and the well-known bakery. It is a very charming town after separating from Verona in 1889. It was developed by Michael Bright in 1816 with his wife and 16 kids. We will look at the beautiful old Victorian homes, old places of worship, an old cemetery, a delightful main retail drag on Allegheny River Boulevard with wonderful unique stores and restaurants and so much more.
Transportation and parking is on your own. The location to meet will be sent with confirmations.
