Community Happenings
EDITOR'S NOTE: This first item has been corrected to reflect that the first two events below will take place at the Twinsburg Historical Society Museum.
Twinsburg Historical Society Museum
History of Geauga Lake Park. Geauga Lake has a special place in our hearts. It was right in our backyard, but many came from far away to enjoy an old-fashioned amusement park with a midway, a dance pavilion and kiddie rides galore. John Kudley of the Aurora Historical Society will give a presentation and share memorabilia from the park at 7 p.m. Jan. 18. Snacks will be provided at the free event.
Valentine's Day cards open house. The Historical Society will host an open house will Jan. 29 about Valentine's Day cards. Adults and children can make their own Valentine’s cards, with a large collection of vintage cards to inspire them. Enjoy the regular exhibits too and chat with trustees.
