Ancient Ohio Survival

Dublin’s “250 for Your Heart” Challenge

Join us for Ancient Ohio Survival: America 250—an outdoor adventure blending hands-on fun with immersive learning. Discover the skills, tools, and traditions that shaped life in early Ohio, from the ancient Hopewell culture to pioneer families like the Wright-Holders. Set on land once home to the Hopewell people over 2,000 years ago, Ferris-Wright Park preserves remarkable earthworks and historic homestead sites, including Joseph Ferris’ early farmhouse. With its restored mounds and scenic creek, the park o—ers an authentic setting where young explorers can uncover the layers of Ohio’s past.
