Old Fashioned Holiday at the Farmhouse is Dec. 15
The University of Akron Wayne College will have its annual community event, Old Fashioned Holiday at the Farmhouse.
The University of Akron Wayne College’s annual community event, Old Fashioned Holiday at the Farmhouse, is scheduled for Saturday, Dec. 15 from 3-6 p.m. in the Barnet-Hoover Farmhouse.
Free and open to the public, this family-friendly event will have activities for all ages including pictures with Santa, children's crafts, refreshments and horse-drawn wagon rides provided by Spring Mist Farms.
The Barnet-Hoover Farmhouse, located at 1901 Smucker Road, is the oldest two-story house in the Orrville area. Originally built in 1818, the college renovated the structure in 2005 with modern conveniences and technology to make it a usable part of the campus community while maintaining the historic feel and rustic charm.
"We're proud to be the stewards of such a historical building," said Dr. Jarrod Tudor, dean at Wayne College. "The Barnet-Hoover Farmhouse is the perfect backdrop for this event. We look forward to families coming out and making great holiday memories."
