SHARE -> how to get the most out of Arlington’s new historic walking trail: Use your camera to scan the QR code, which allows you to choose a narration for that spot that starts immediately describing the history of where you are standing. You can choose express or the longer form. (You can move through the website without the QR codes.) If you want to take a selfie, set your timer for 10 seconds and the selfie stands allow you to slip your camera in the Holder and pose with friends or family for your photograph. Feel free to share them here.

Enjoy getting your steps in while learning a little something from a lady that I swear sounds like she makes a mean skillet full of gravy. 😋

Hey Arlington, while you're out walking around downtown and Depot Square be sure and look for these signs around town. These are part of our 10K steps through Arlingtons History. Each sign will tell you about the history of each marker. Plus these will be on the selfie post. Just put your phone in and take a great selfie!
