DOCENT 2 DOCENT; A GREAT AND FUN OPPORTUNITY
For those of you not yet familiar with it, there is a group of docents for various cultural entities in WNY known as Docent 2 Docent, They offer various social and cultural opportunities for docents in the area. In the past 6 months since I have been associated with them I have enjoyed a walking tour of Lincoln Parkway mansions to include Larkland, the Larklin family compound, a tour of the Lafayette Hotel led my Rocco Termini himself, a tour of all the hidden nooks and crannies of the Electric Building by the building superintendent, an evening presentation about the history of Forest Lawn and the archaeological preservation of human remains found on the South UB campus from the old Buffalo Poor house. They also host a monthly book club and host a website. The link to that is: http://docent2docent.wordpress.com/ I am sure you will find their site informative.
If you wish to join the group; no cost, no obligation, only benefit and companionship of individuals of similar interest, you can email them and ask to added to their email list at;
docent2docent@gmail.com
The mainstays of this group are Paul and Cindy Gorski who docent with Buffalo Tours. They are great folks and the group comprises a mix of docents from various sites around the WNY area. I have definitely enjoyed my involvement with this group and I am sure you will too. George Struebel
