Join us in honoring Muskingum’s earliest defenders and storytellers—and rediscover the roots of our shared heritage.
Step into the past with Muskingum 250’s Tour of Woodlawn Cemetery. This guided experience will spotlight the lives and legacies of Muskingum County pioneers, civic leaders, and veterans of the American Revolution and the War of 1812—men and women who helped shape a new nation and whose descendants carried their patriotic spirit forward.
In partnership with the Renner Theatre, costumed actors will portray these early patriots and their families, bringing to life tales of courage, sacrifice, and community-building. Through dramatic monologues and first-person interpretation, visitors will encounter voices from the founding generations and reflect on how their values echo through our county’s 250-year journey.
📚 Interpretive booklets and digital resources will be available.
🌳 Comfortable walking shoes recommended; tour includes gentle hills and shaded paths.
