tmoning Report post Posted June 4, 2009 The National Park Service is offering free admission to all National Park Service sites on July 18 and 19, two days prior to the start of FMCA’s 82nd International Convention in Bowling Green, Ohio. So, while en route to the convention, consider taking a day trip to one of Ohio’s national parks or historic sites. The sites below are located within a three-hour drive of Bowling Green, and offer something of interest for every member of the family. Within one hour: Perry’s Victory and International Peace Memorial, located on South Bass Island on Lake Erie. Within two hours: Cuyahoga Valley National Park, Brecksville, Ohio. Dayton Aviation Heritage National Historical Park, Dayton, Ohio. Within three hours: James A. Garfield National Historic Site, Mentor, Ohio. First Ladies National Historic Site, Canton, Ohio. Hopewell Cultural National Historic Park, Chillicothe, Ohio. William Howard Taft National Historic Site, Cincinnati, Ohio. Register for the convention before June 29 and save $30 off gate registration. Attend FMCA’s annual membership meeting on Thursday, July 23, and you'll be eligible to win one of 10 $250 cash awards!
