Two days of fun that you will ❤! And we will have a canal boat ride and visit the First Ladies museum in Canton & more. Plus optional concert!
All on the same grounds: Hartville Marketplace (indoor shops & farmers market), Hartville Hardware (the largest hardware store in the country), and the Hartville Kitchen (and yummy baked goods). We will stay at the Comfort Suites just across the lot. Our group will enjoy a delicious dinner at The Kitchen and prior to dining, we will have a short demonstration of oil & vinegars and tasting samples, of course. And in your free time, who doesn’t LOVE chocolate? Visit Chocolate World and create your own personalized candy bar.
There’s more! We will have a small picnic lunch and take a canal boat ride and hear the history of the Fulton Canalway. Then visit the National First Ladies Library in Canton. A great place to see the history of First Ladies and how they impacted their husbands, with a limited-time exhibit of Jackie Kennedy Onassis. (A film is available at the museum if you want to limit your walking.)
On Thursday evening we have tickets (a limited number) to see the sibling trip called “Girl Named Tom.” You will love their music! They won The Voice. I love this group and that’s what inspired this trip! You will ❤ them too! You can choose to attend the concert or spend the evening on your own. Registration for the concert ($only $55) is separate from the tour. REGISTRATION FOR THIS TOUR ENDS ON JULY 26, 2023 SO DON’T DELAY!
And of course, if we are in the area, we must spend a few hours in Holmes County, Amish country! A little bit of backroads and then we will make a stop at Walnut Creek Cheese so you can stock up on cheese, dip mixes, baked goods, and more. So, bring a cooler or lunchbox if you plan to buy a lot and the weather is warm.
Lunch & dinner on Thursday and breakfast on Friday included, all venues, along with deluxe motorcoach transportation, and other surprises, of course! I LOVE surprises. Plenty of things to see and do with the group and on your own.
