Event Start Date: July 31, 2024 | Event End Date: July 31, 2024 | Event Venue: Musem & Freeman Barn |
On Wednesday, July 31, 2024 at 6:30PM, any Twins that are in town for Twins Days can meet at the parking lot behind the Twinsburg Historical Society (8996 Darrow Rd.) for a tour of Locust Grove Cemetery. Behind the Freeman Barn (It is the only Barn in downtown Twinsburg)
The idea is that we can show some of our history with a “Mini Tales of Locust Grove” to the Twins that are in attendance for the annual Twins Days Festival but are not able to get to the “Tales of Locust Grove” in October.
Sally Nick and identical sons Skyler and Spencer Nick have come to Twins Days for over 30 years. When they get into town their first stop is at Locust Grove Cemetery to clean and decorate the graves of Aaron and Moses Wilcox, the namesake of Twinsburg. 2 years ago they came back in October to see our fundraiser “Tales of Locust Grove”. It was after a return trip with other twins, that the idea to share the Locust Grove history could be presented before the Twins Days Festival. After the tour, you are more than welcome to walk back to the Museum and Freeman Barn to see more of the history of Twinsburg.
We hope this event will show how rich our history is and that Aaron and Moses Wilcox are the twins that started it all for Twinsburg.
We will accept any monetary donations that you feel free to give to the Museum or at the Cemetery. This money goes toward the maintaining of our buildings, Locust Grove Cemetery and keeping the history of Twinsburg Alive.
