Ohio's history and preservation advocates will gather at the Ohio Statehouse Wednesday, March 5 in recognition of Ohio's statehood and to promote the state's rich heritage. Gov. Ted Strickland will address the group at lunch.
The Statehood Day event, sponsored by the Ohio Historical Society and other statewide history organizations, is expected to attract more than 200 Ohioans.
"We're pleased that Gov. Strickland will be the keynote speaker this year," says William K. Laidlaw, Jr., executive director and CEO of the Ohio Historical Society. "As the first Ohio governor with a college degree in history, he has a unique perspective and is particularly well suited to make connections between state officials and members of the history and preservation community."
