Ridgewood Neighborhood Donation Day at the McKinley Presidential Library and Museum
2020-10-03 10:00 - 14:00 | McKinley Presidential Library and Museum, 800 McKinley Monument Dr NW, Canton, OH, 44708, United States
Preserving Our Past, Present and Future
There is a project underway to update the History of the Ridgewood Neighborhood through a partnership with The McKinley Presidential Library and Museum/Stark County Historical Society, The Plain
Township Historical Society and The Ridgewood Association. In order to help facilitate the collection of Ridgewood information, we are planning a Historic Ridgewood Day at the McKinley Museum on Saturday, October 3, 2020. On that day we plan to collect any information you may wish to share to update our History. Given the current state of health considerations, the information will be handled on a Drive-Thru basis from 10 am to 2 pm.
In order to best organize the day, save you time and adhere to COVID guidelines, simply
drive by the McKinley museum, we will come to your car to retrieve your information and provide
you with the proper paperwork. Once items are brought to the museum, they will be placed
in a Que to be recorded. Your original items will be returned to you later once recorded
or copied. You may also donate these items as appropriate to the Museum Archives. Past
Ridgewood residents and friends are welcome to participate as well. All information
gathered from this event will be shared by Historic Ridgewood, McKinley Presidential
Library and Museum and the Plain Township Historical Society to help preserve and share
the history of Ridgewood. The contributions shared by our Ridgewood friends will be used
in our updated History publication and become part of our on-line information archive
dedicated to Ridgewood’s History.
Thank you for your support on this project. Thomas Grove, Historic Ridgewood Historian
