We are so excited to open up our beautiful campus to onsite tours again! Tours are available Mondays and Wednesdays 10:00 am, 11:00 am, 1:00 pm and 2:00 pm.
Given the safety protocols that are still in place, campus tours will be limited in scope but will still allow guests to visit facilities on our campus. All visitors (including any children over the age of 2) must wear a mask throughout the tour.
