The bus tour was such a popular event that extra busses were added to accommodate all of the reservations. The event was organized by the Bethany Historical Society, and the bus route was designed by Will Brinton with his dad, Town Historian Bob Brinton, Sr.  Between the two of them, they managed to trim the route down to an hour and 45 minutes of Bethany's most interesting sites.  Bus tours were directed by Will Brinton, Timer Downs and Dave Forman with their respective co-pilots Kim McClure, Carol Cangiano and Carol Goldberg.
