Wick Park Walking Tour

[MVHS]

The Mahoning Valley Historical Society will be hosting a free walking tour of Wick Park on Saturday, June 6th from 4:30 to 7:30 p.m.  Meet at the First Unitarian Universalist Church, 1105 Elm Street.  The approximately 1 mile walk will include tales about some of the most affluent families in Youngstown during the era of industrialization, their estates, and the cultural institutions that surround the park. Stay afterward for light refreshments and view the final design plans for the Wick Park Revitalization Project, a multi-million dollar effort to update and improve the park. This free event is sponsored in part by CityScape, and will be held rain or shine.  For more information about the tour contact the Mahoning Valley Historical Society at 330.743.2589 or visit www.mahoninghistory.org
