Philosopher George Santayana famously said, âThose who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.â
Of course, sometimes reliving the past can be kind of fun.
Thatâs the spirit behind the History Walk series presented by the Somerset Junior Womanâs Club. The eighth season of History Walk events begins this Thursday, May 20, with local actors portraying notable figures from Pulaski Countyâs past.
Two characters who have been performed before â one not since the first year of the History Walk â join two new characters, as well as several actors likely to participate this season who are fresh faces.
