Day 1: We’ll travel today to Roscoe Village, a restored 1800’s canal town where we’ll learn how Roscoe was once a bustling center of commerce on the Ohio and Erie Canal. We’ll take a Living History tour where we’ll meet an 1800s working blacksmith, practice writing skills in a one-room schoolhouse and meet many other period craftsmen and artisans. Experience history firsthand as you listen to costumed interpreters as they portray life from an earlier era. Our lunch is included today at Roscoe Village and this afternoon you will experience a horse-drawn canal boat ride.

Here you will experience the history of glassmaking through exhibits with a mock furnace, tools, molds and other items involved in the manufacturing of fine handmade glassware. View over 9,000 pieces of elegant Cambridge Glassware as you tour the museum. Our second stop today will be one of the most interesting you have seen, The Wilds, a private non-profit conservation center located on nearly 10,000 acres of reclaimed mind land in rural southeastern Ohio. A guide will take us through open-range animal areas, where you’ll see rhinos, giraffes and many other rare and endangered animals roaming in large, natural settings.
