ADDITIONAL INFO:
This is the second year for the Trail of History
Challenge. Last year got such great feedback that we opted to bring it back
with ALL NEW locations, clues, and fun!
This is a family-friendly, summer-long event that will
open your eyes to the enchantment that surrounds. Follow the clues to a variety
of locations throughout Warren County specifically chosen for their historic
impact and for your chance to win a Warren County-themed prize basket.
From the rolling hills and rippling waterways to the
notable structures and historic tales, Warren County history ranges from rich
local folklore to important worldwide significance. There’s no denying Warren
County is beautiful. When you live here, it’s easy to take that for granted.
You are invited to bask in its splendor as you take part in the Trail of
History Challenge: Exploring Warren County through Historic Sites.
Historical hints will lead you to panoramic views,
historic buildings, now-overgrown areas that were once integral businesses and
some businesses that have been continuous for over a century, all of which
played important roles in history. Can you find the settlement founded upon a
tragic story? The cemetery that gives final rest to the forgotten? An historic
oil boom? Warren County has many hidden treasures.
Donations for this event have been made by
Whirley-DrinkWorks and the Warren County Visitors Bureau.
