For 17 years, HWF has partnered with New Hanover County Public Schools for Tar Heels Go Walking, an educational walking tour for third graders. Each year, HWF volunteers lead thousands of students through a tour of our city’s most renowned sites, instilling a love of history and a deep curiosity to explore the world around them. The time commitment for each Tar Heels Go Walking tour is approximately 9:15am to noon; tours are only conducted on weekdays. Guides must be comfortable walking approximately 1 mile, and experience working with children is a plus!
Please note that all guides are required to attend a THGW Guide Orientation. More information on Orientation dates and registration are available here: Tar Heels Go Walking - Historic Wilmington Foundation
