There’s a good reason why Piqua, Ohio is known to be as comfortable as a worn pair of pajamas – it was once known as the Underwear Capital of the World. Today, Piqua entertains its visitors with beautiful recreational trails, unique small town shopping, living canal era history and original events. Piqua continues to blaze new trails, literally, adding to an already large network that connects park systems. Significant investments and resources have enabled extensive plans to take shape over recent years. New sections of trail have recently opened and more are coming soon. Eventually, Piqua’s trails will link to a system that extends to Dayton and as far as Cincinnati. “Word is traveling fast in Ohio’s recreational hiking circles,” said Diana Thompson, Director of the Miami County Visitors & Convention Bureau. “It definitely lends support to the cliché, build it and they will come.” Currently, the trail system ties into the Canal Run Trail, River’s Edge Trail and Piqua Activities Trail For Health (P.A.T.H.) Rail to Trail, which is a former railroad returned to Mother Nature. Together, the network of trails provides opportunities for walking, running and bicycling. Each trail has its own unique scenery. Once in Piqua, visitors are drawn to its heart – the Fort Piqua Plaza – where a massive $20 million restoration has just brought the Romanesque structure of the former hotel and its surroundings back to life. Dating back to the 1890’s, the hotel has played host to many famous guests including Teddy Roosevelt, Harry Houdini and the Cincinnati Red Legs. Today, the new Fort Piqua Plaza hosts a library, banquet & conference center, and Winans Coffee and Chocolates. More additions are being added, including a restaurant and other amenities. “As far as architectural gems go, this is just for starters,” said Lorna Swisher, Director of Mainstreet Piqua. “The entire downtown area has a variety of canal-era to high Victorian style buildings that have been beautifully restored.” Over several generations, once vibrant small town downtowns have been choked off all over the country due to a global economy, manufacturing leaving and the invasion of big-box stores. But when a success story like Piqua’s breathes new life into a charming town, authenticity blossoms again and unique mom and pop shops start to dot the landscape much like yesteryear. Piqua’s resurgence has given a new lease on leisure shopping adventures. Quaint storefronts offering clothing, books, glassware, hardware, furniture and jewelry abound. When a break is needed from shopping at the unique merchants, many find themselves at the original family-owned restaurants and cafes. Before the day is through, it’s difficult not to go home with homemade baked goods and fresh cut flowers from the florist. “Piqua is where the good life is,” said Rebecca Cox, enjoying an ice cream cone on the curb. “I love small towns with character.” Of course, there’s also a reminder of bygone days evident in the antique stores and specialty shops. But to get a true feel of the good ole days, one must not travel far from downtown. For just down the bicycle trail, or just north on State Route 66, is the Piqua Historical Area State Memorial. The 220 acre site is home to a Historic Indian Museum, Colonel John Johnston Farmhouse and a restored section of the Miami-Erie Canal. All aboard the General Harrison for a lazy afternoon ride on a replica 70-foot long 19th Century canal boat. Costumed guides direct the mule-drawn boat in an experience of a lifetime. Over at the Johnston Farm, visitors see the preserved and period furnished two-story Dutch Colonial and Georgian style farmhouse. In addition, there’s a cider house and two-story spring house. Farm tours are led by costumed interpreters and crafters revealing life in an era long past. There’s even a large double-penned log barn dating to 1808. It’s believed to be the oldest and largest of its kind in the state. Another pleasant surprise on the grounds is an Adena Indian mound dating back more than 2,000 years. A visit to the farm during Labor Day weekend coincides with one of the largest festivals in Ohio – the Piqua Heritage Festival. This event provides an interactive experience with a look at Ohio's link to the early frontier. Artisans will share their techniques for woodcarving, basket weaving, quilting, rag-rug making and pottery. The festival includes dozens of pre-1800's encampments and a large selection of home-made foods. Throughout the year, Piqua has fun-filled activities and events ranging from festivities where there’s dancing in the streets to art walks. Seasonal fun features horse-drawn carriage rides, an old-fashioned holiday parade and Victorian Christmas. Also, famous in the spring is the ever popular, “Taste of the Arts” that features great food and fun for all ages! For complete details to plan a visit to Piqua and the surrounding area any time of year, call the Miami County Visitors Bureau at 1-800-348-8993 or see their web site at www.visitmiamicounty.org.

The captain knows what role to play no matter who is keeping him company. If a bunch of guys want to catch walleye, Captain Bill buddies along. If mom and dad want the kids to catch perch, Captain Bill is the grandpa that baits their hooks. If it’s a girlfriend getaway, Captain Bill is the father-figure. And for couples, he’s a chaperone. Whether setting out to sail to Put-in-Bay for lunch or fish the day away, Captain Bill’s crews share the common bond of laughter and good times. “I’m going fishing or sailing most days anyway, so anyone coming along makes it that much more fun,” said the captain. But what sets his “Fun Fish” boat and “Dreamin” sailboat apart from the competitive big outfits is the intimacy. Group sizes for either vessel limit six passengers. Fun Fishing casts off at 7:00 a.m. from Sandusky Bay Marina aboard a 30-foot Baha fishing boat that is 10-feet wide. Charters may be reserved from May 1 through October 30. Due to the marina’s close proximity to Cedar Point, charters make for a great 4 - 10 hour diversion. A unique photo opportunity puts the legendary island amusement park and its towering roller coasters in the background. Just sit back and enjoy the scenes and leave the fish finding to the captain and his high tech gizmos. Captain Bill makes everything easy for his guests. No fishing rod? No problem, the captain has plenty, rigged and ready to cast. He even has all the bait you’ll need. You just need to bring your fishing license and snacks. If nature calls out on the water, no worries, there’s a private head below deck. If your day is a success and you’ve filled the boat’s cooler with fish but don’t want to clean them yourself, Captain Bill will direct you to a nearby place, Lake Fish Company in Sandusky, that’ll do it for you, and it’s cheap. Plus it’s fun to watch the experts at work. First, fish are shot through a machine that scales them. Then, someone takes them to a station to clean. The precision and speed in which the knife work is done is remarkable. In the end, beautiful fillets are packed in ice in a cooler that you provide.
Fishing isn’t for everyone, not even the captain’s wife. You’ll find her aboard “Dreamin” ready to sail with her husband and whoever else wants to come. Sailing charters run from May 1 through October 10 aboard a 33.6 foot Hunter, which is 12-feet wide. Up to six people can take their turns at the helm or just kick-back and enjoy the open waters as the sailboat cuts through them en route to exceptional sites like Marblehead Lighthouse, Perry’s Monument and Cedar Point on an eight-hour leisure trip around the Bass Islands. A shorter excursion for four hours tools around Sandusky Bay. The captain provides drinks and munchies for the sailing charters. The only thing guests need to remember is the camera. Nothing feels more like a vacation than the sight of sails being hoisted while you’re day-dreamin on a sailboat. Sailing charters are $200/group up to six people for four hours, $300/group up to six people for 8-10 hours and $400/group up to four people for overnight/24-hour trips. In addition, week-long sailing charters are offered at reasonable rates as well. Captain Bill is retired and charters his boats for fun and extra money to help with upkeep. With more than 15 years of experience sailing and fishing on Lake Erie, he puts safety first and tries to make everyone’s experience a memorable one. He has a U.S.C.G. 50-ton Masters License with a sailing endorsement. The captain is an Ohio licensed fishing guide, a member of the Harbor Bay Yacht Club, Associate member of the Inter-Lakes Yachting Association and member of the Sandusky Charter Boat Association. To book a charter aboard Fun Fish or Dreamin at Fun Fishing and Sailing, L.L.C., call Captain Bill Weirauch at 419-592-0761 for fishing trips or 419-966-3817 for sailing trips.

The Governor’s Cup Regatta, hydroplane race began in 1958 when Ohio Governor C. William O’Neal presented the silver cup to Joe Allbee, driver of the “Sir Ron II. For the next 13 years The Governor’s Cup Regatta was conducted by the St. Mary’s Boat Club and the Celina Lions Club. Crowds packed the shoreline of Celina to watch the drivers duel it out. 1970 was the last year for the event. Due to changes in leadership of both clubs it was decided to discontinue the very expensive event. In 1995 Tom Saddler formed a group to restart the event. The new, not for profit corporation, was able to obtain the proper amount of sponsorship to bring the event back to the original race site located in the Northwest corner of Grand Lake St. Marys. Over 100 volunteers work to make this event a success. The start was slow because many people had never seen a hydroplane race. Some of the “old timers” talked about waking up to the sound of racing engines for two days each year. Many of the racers are the second, third or fourth generation of the original competitors. The original Governor’s Cup was located and restored to be used in the second round of hydroplane racing on the lake. Since 1995 the event has continued to attract more spectators and competitors each year. Crowds are estimated to be 30,000 spectators for the weekend. This prestigious event will attract 80 race teams, in 7 classes, from across the United States and Canada. Speeds will reach 150 MPH as the hydroplanes roar across the finish line on the one mile record course. Testing will take place on Saturday and Sunday Mornings with heat racing to begin at noon both days.
Admission is free with food vendors, rides for the kids and free entertainment on Saturday Night. The Country Mile Band will play without a cover charge. Enjoy a day or two of fun in the sun, August 22 & 23, 2009, Lakeshore Park, Celina Ohio is the place to bring the entire family for “Free Family Fun” and exciting racing action. The Major sponsors are: The City of Celina, Pepsi, Your Hometown Lima Stations & Time Warner Cable. Visit our website: www.celinaevents.com for complete details. Return to Top
IT ISN’T A PARTY UNLESS
The iconic Everything Rubbermaid Store in downtown Wooster has long attracted visitors from near and far, but the store also travels to where people gather for festivities throughout the year, or hosts its own festivities. Currently, Everything Rubbermaid is sponsoring the downtown Wooster Farmers Market in the public square every Saturday from 8am to Noon through October. Visitors will find seasonal produce, flowers, baked goods, and crafts for sale. Often times, there’s Music at the Market increasing the lure of this popular event. On August 14th, you can catch a Concert & Cruise In where Wooster rocks and street rods and classic cars roll just outside the Everything Rubbermaid Store. Car enthusiasts from all over jam in the streets to festive music as they make their rounds to see street machines of all makes and models every June and August. Rubbermaid is always there to greet them. A month later, the streets of Wooster are again serenaded with music, fun and Everything Rubbermaid! The Wooster Arts & Jazz Fest is from 11am to 5pm on September 20th. It features art, quality food, and traditional New Orleans-style parade and jazz music from the parking lot of the anchor Rubbermaid Store. Everything Rubbermaid participates in two major Wayne County events each year. One is the Uptown, Downtown, All-Around Town Yard Sale in Orrville, Ohio on October 3rd from 9am to 4pm. This city-wide garage sale event features more than 100 yard and sidewalk sales throughout the historic downtown shopping district and all around the town. One of the special attractions is the Everything Rubbermaid Store tent sale in the Orrville Market Place parking lot. This one-of-a-kind tent sale features overstocks and seconds at bargain prices. Also in October is Woosterfest! This traditional Oktoberfest celebration is put on just outside Rubbermaid’s doors in Public Square from October 2 to 3, 2009. The entertainment doesn’t get any better than the annual Woosterfest talent show, live music, bier stein contest, biergarten, Weingarten and lots of food. Throughout November, Everything Rubbermaid Store joins with Wooster’s downtown merchants for Window Wonderland just in time for the holidays. The nostalgic evening transcends the historic northeast Ohio town into Christmas scenes from yesteryear. It kicks off with the lighting of The Children’s Christmas tree amidst character walk-around figures strolling the streets. Hot cocoa fills the brisk evening air and is free along with coffee and cookies at several locations. The air fills with the sound of music from a children’s choir, caroling in the streets and strolling musicians. At the old Rubbermaid Store, the nostalgia is heightened to new levels. Throughout the December Christmas shopping season, signs of a storied history appear throughout the four floors of the store. This is no more evident than seeing the use of old air tubes to send the children’s Christmas lists to Santa at the North Pole and receive an instant reply and treat. The air tubes were originally used by sales clerks to send payments from customers to the fourth floor for processing. Then the tube would return the receipt and any change due. Rubbermaid’s presence at festivities and hosting of special events doesn’t stop there. A few more include the second major Wayne County Rubbermaid event of the year – the April Home and Garden Show at the county fairgrounds. A couple truckloads of merchandise are shipped from the store and sold at steep discounts. The show features 200 home and garden-related exhibits, RV and new car displays, concession and plenty of activities for the kids. In addition, Rubbermaid participates in the July Artfully Delicious Taste of Wooster. The Everything Rubbermaid Store features four floors of an assortment of merchandise you can’t see anywhere else. Bus tours are welcome. Everything Rubbermaid is open seven days per week from April through December; Monday through Friday 9:30-6:00, Saturday from 9:30-5:00, and Sunday from 12:00 to 5:00. The store is closed on major holidays. If a trip to the iconic anchor store at the corner of Market and Liberty Street in downtown Wooster, Ohio is not possible, then shop Everything Rubbermaid online at eBay.com or by mail-order. The eBay store is everythingrubbermaid01 and offers hundreds of items available immediately by auction. If you can’t find a particular item anymore, and it is still being manufactured, chances are pretty good you can have it sent by mail-order from the Everything Rubbermaid Store. The mail-order department handles all kinds of orders small or large. For more information, visit www. everythingrubbermaidstore.com, call 330-264-7119 or e-mail everythingrubbermaid@hotmail.com.

MUSKINGHAM RIVER
History books— somewhere back in grade school—stated that the Northwest Territory was wild, primitive, unpredictable, and inhabited by hostile Indians. I assumed they were referring to that broad space where the Canadian border meets the Pacific Ocean. What a surprise when I learned the authors were alluding to Ohio. Actually the frontier delegated by the Continental Congress in 1787 was all the land west of Pennsylvania between the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers, which now includes six states. However, Marietta was the first permanent settlement, and Ohio was the first state admitted (1803) from the Northwest Territory. Marietta, named in honor of Queen Marie Antoinette of France who assisted in our war of independence, was wisely sited for the first outpost. Located at the confluence of the Muskingum and Ohio Rivers, it proved to be key to the economic development of the area. What is known today as the Muskingum River Parkway was the super highway of the time connecting Ohio River traffic to the Ohio and Erie Canal which in turn led to Lake Erie and the all important markets back east. The Muskingum River formed by the joining of the Walhonding and Tuscarawas Rivers at Coshocton is the largest river lying solely within Ohio and flows 112 miles before merging at Marietta. The lure of the new territory brought entrepreneurs and adventurers of every stripe. One of them was Major Samuel Curtis, a graduate of West Point, who immediately saw the potential of the Muskingum River. The forces of nature had done a commendable job of designing the route, but altering the waterway to accommodate commercial barges and paddle wheelers of the day was man’s obligation. Curtis designed a system of ten dams and eleven locks, to make the Muskingum navigable from Marietta to Dresden, (about 100 miles) where it intersected the canal. The transformation to a major water route took years of hand labor and ingenuity, but by 1841 it was ready for the first boats to pass through the locks. It’s remarkable because unlike the short-lived canals that are a footnote in history, the hand-operated Muskingum River navigational system is in operation to this day, and recognized as one of America’s great engineering accomplishments. In 2001 the system was designated a National Historic Civil Engineering Landmark by the American Society of Engineers—accompanying projects such as the Hoover Dam and the Golden Gate Bridge. Probably the most exciting water excursion in the state is sailing on the Muskingum River and navigating the locks, which can be done in anything from a canoe to unlimited powerboats. This summer locks 11 and 10 at Zanesville are temporarily closed for repair, making it necessary to launch south of that point for any lengthy voyage up or downstream. Fish are abundant and anglers can dangle hooks from anywhere except the walls of the locks. At every lock below 9 at Philo you can fry your catch at picnic facilities and there are public boat ramps at most of them. For non-boaters, route 60 is an exceptionally scenic drive in summer and fall that mimics nearly ever turn of the river through southeastern Ohio hill country. The road takes you past numerous camping and picnic sites, and also allows you to witness the extraordinary function of the locks. By either mode of travel you’re dropped off at Marietta, rich in culture and history from the days of being the doorway to the Northwest Territory. The Campus Martius Museum, at the corner of Washington and Second Streets, stands on the site of the first fortification of the founders. The archives explore prehistoric Indian populations of the area and displays original pioneer artifacts. Primarily however, attention is placed on the history of migration into Ohio from the opening of the territory through later waves of movement from Appalachia to Ohio’s industrial centers as late as 1970. A walk one block east will take you to the Ohio River Museum, which consists of three exhibit buildings where you can explore the golden age of the steamboat and the significance of water travel in our nation’s early development. There is a video presentation of steamboats as well as tools and equipment of boat building, and the ecological history of the Ohio River system. Outside the museum you can take a tour of the W.P. Snyder JR.—the last intact steam-powered stern-wheeled boat in the United States. Other exhibits include a pilothouse from an actual steamboat and a full-scale reproduction of an early flatboat. For campers, day-trippers, or weeklong vacationers, a trip down the Muskingum River Parkway and a visit to Marietta offers recreation, relaxation, and history. Rejuvenating in every aspect, grasp as much as time and temperance will allow. You won’t be disappointed. For more information, contact Ohio River Museum at 740-373-3750 or 800-860-0145; Dillon State Park at 740-453-4377 or 866-644-6727 for camping reservations.
