Tours and Food Sampling
The official welcome will start at 5:00 with a hearty array of food sampling and beverages, followed by the first wave of tours. (The last visitor would be welcomed no later than 6:30 and would go directly to tour, with food sampling afterwards.)
The evening is expected to conclude at 7:30. Unofficially, the hearty and available among us might consider heading to The Cove Restaurant, at 392 Davol St., Fall River, overlooking Battleship Cove on Narragansett Bay, for additional catching up!
