Spring Grove Encampment

This Saturday the Friends of the Spring Grove Cemetery are hosting a first ever...

Spring Grove Civil War Encampment

This unique event is going to be packed with incredible activities for the whole family.

• Re-enactors will portray the 8th Ohio Volunteer Infantry. Many of the original members of this Civil War unit came from Medina County.
• An opportunity to tour the Miller House that was a stop on the Underground Railroad.
• Civil War Musicians, displays and artifacts.
• Tin-type photos taken in period costume.

AND

• The Medina Library's genealogy team will be on hand to help you find YOUR family history. Yep, that would be Lauren, Lisa and me!

The Medina Gazette had a nice article on the event in Tuesday's paper: Civil War Encampment.

The weather is forecast to be fine weather to enjoy and incredible day of fun and history!
