The Ohio Historical Markers Program: More Than Mere Signs presented by Denny Reiser

  • Independence Civic Center 6363 Selig Boulevard Independence, OH, 44131 United States (map)

The Ohio Historical Marker Program is more than just metal markers scattered along our roadways. It’s a means of telling community stories and it give the traveler a “sense of place.” Denny knows these markers well. He will share stories gathered from twenty years of research about some of the people, places, and events that have put a mark on our state history. He will also help you navigate Remarkable Ohio, a website where you can discover all the markers on your own.

Denny retired from the Bay Village and Aurora School Districts in 1998. An accomplished photographer, he has contributed 1,000 photos to the Ohio Historical Marker Program as part of his extensive research. Currently living in Stow, he is also a volunteer with Summit Metro Parks, Cascade Locks Park Association, Stan Hywet Hall and Gardens, and the Cuyahoga Valley National Park.
