Join the Town of Ballston’s Town Historian, Rick Reynolds, in a tour of Hillside Cemetery in Burnt Hills, NY to learn the role of cemeteries in preserving our history. What goes into the preservation of our past in a cemetery? What stories lurk within cemeteries? Rick will explain how the town of Ballston is preserving its past in Hillside Cemetery and tell the stories of those buried there.

After the program, visit the sanctuary of the 1820 Burnt Hills Baptist Church which owned the cemetery for over 75 years.

Please park in the lot adjacent to the Burnt Hills Baptist Church on Kingsley Road and walk to the cemetery on the other side of the church. Wear good walking shoes!
