      The Cone – Built in 1993, it is still a more recent addition than its counterparts, but still something that is valued all over West Chester, Ohio and much of Butler County. It is a mom and dad owned ice cream shop that makes ice cream right in their store. It was a father’s legacy carried out through his son. The cone offers a variety of ice creams and dessert but the thing that makes it most unique is that it is in the shape of a cone. With its friendly and community central service, the cone has definitely had to meet the challenges of corporate franchised ice cream developments like Cold Stone or Maggie Moo’s. However, no one in Butler County can beat the authenticity and genuineness of hand-made ice cream at the cone.

      If you’re visiting Guernsey County, you’ll find that it is a small-town, homey area that can still provide a lot of unique opportunities. I suggest visiting Salt Fork State Park, Ohio’s largest state park, during the summer for great places to relax and have fun by swimming, boating, fishing, camping, golfing, horse-back riding, visiting the historic Kennedy Stone House, or doing a variety of other activities. Also, if you’re interested in seeing amazing wildlife, go to the Deerassic Park Education Center and National Whitetail Center. The Living Word Outdoor Drama is one of America’s greatest outdoor dramas, presenting the events of the Christian Easter story. For some hometown history and experience, visit downtown Cambridge’s internationally famous glass museums, the Hopalong Cassidy Museum, the locally owned businesses, and the annual Dicken’s Victorian Village Christmas Activities and light show. The Cambridge City Park hosts several events for all kinds of interests, including the Gus Macker Basketball Tournament, the Salt Fork Arts and Crafts Festival, and various sport tournaments. If you’re hungry, stop by Kennedy’s Bakery in Downtown Cambridge for the best baked goods around and Theo’s Restaurant for a great meal. Also, Cambridge’s Wally’s has some of the best pizza ever and is must have meal while visiting Guernsey County. The Guernsey County Fair is home to many fun games, rides, activities, animal shows, and of course some of the best food ever, including elephant ears, sandwiches, lemon shake-ups, funnel cakes, ice cream, fries, and cotton candy.

      If ever you visit Lucas County, you MUST visit Tony Packo's, a wonderful Hungarian hot dog restaurant made famous by Jamie Farr, also known as Corporal Max Klinger from M*A*S*H. The chili dogs, chicken paprikas, and the macaroni and cheese are awesome. Another must see from Lucas County is the Toledo Zoo. Ranked one of the top 10 zoos in the country, the zoo has tons of fun stuff to do! One of my favorite things to do at the zoo is visit the Light Before Christmas. It is an amazing display of Christmas light decorating that is a must see during the Holiday Season.

My favorite week of the year is by far the Morgan County Fair. The fair is a place to socialize, enjoy fair food and watch animal exhibitions. The fair is run by the Morgan County Agricultural Society. This tradition, that is over 155 years old, is a celebration of the end of the harvest season. It also represents the role that agriculture has played in our county’s history and it is a part of training those that will carry the future of agriculture in Morgan County.

You could also stop at the friendly, neighborhood Taco Bell, along with a visit to Gary’s Discount Outlet. Gary’s deals are only the finest of wares.

      I grew up down the street from a railroad depot that has a rich history embedded in Tuscarawas County dating back to 1864. When visiting my county, no one should miss Christmastime at the Dennison Depot Railroad Museum. An annual “Polar Express” train ride (based off the book by Chris Van Allsburg) is held for children to ride to the North Pole to meet Santa Claus. Some of my best memories come from a snowy winter evening standing in front of the glowing lights of the railroad depot and watching the cheerful smiles of elves and children as they board the Polar Express train. I have been a hostess on this ride for six years, and have spoken with many WWII veterans who themselves have stopped at the “Dreamsville” canteen during the war. The depot holds many other train rides for passengers to enjoy at other times throughout the year, along with some of the craziest events. During the bicentennial, the depot hosted a festival that had the world’s largest chocolate Buckeye. There is also a restaurant, gift shop, and ice cream shop nearby for visitors to take their families to relax and have fun. To me, the Dennison Railroad Depot not only stands as the strongest asset of my county and community, but also holds one of the largest impacts on my character. Volunteering at the depot gave me a love for history, education, and my town, and I am sure that for anyone who loves the sound of a train whistle, this museum can do the same.

It is one of the absolute must-sees of the county.
