Location

This sign is located directly across the street from the Oakwood Cemetery on Highway E just east of Highway 31 (Green Bay Road).  The sign is on the north side of Highway E on University property near a hiking trail head.  The trail head begins on an old abandoned driveway of the Billy Smith Farm, a Somers pioneer, where remnants of the old farmhouse’s foundation can still be seen.  The short walk boasts beautiful old maple giants of the forest.
