Heritage Day Celebrates Plain City’s Amish Heritage on Saturday, May 17 from 10 am to 4 pm.
On Saturday, May 17, Der Dutchman Restaurant will present Plain City Heritage Day. The event, which will run from 10 am to 4 pm at 445 South Jefferson Avenue (next to Der Dutchman Restaurant), will feature displays and products commonly seen in our area in the past. An emphasis will be on the Amish culture in Plain City with demonstrations on broom making, woodcrafting, blacksmithing, and more. There will also be several cooking and food contests, as well as plenty of food and activities for children.
Additionally, beginning at 12:30 pm, you can get a feel for vintage baseball when The Ohio Village Muffins baseball team takes on a team representing Der Dutchman.
There will also be a musical concert by Clear Run and John Schmid, featuring gospel songs, oldies, and lots of other favorite tunes.
After the pharmacy closes at noon on Saturday, parking for Heritage Day will be available in our parking lot, which is just across the street from the event.

Dublin’s Bicentennial Celebration, Heritage Day, on Saturday, October 2.
I had an email about the Dublin Bicentennial Celebration from Bernie Vance at the Plain City Historical Society. The Heritage Day event, which is free, is being sponsored by the Dublin Historical Society and will feature educational, living history and family activities. This will appeal to all history lovers, but especially to history teachers and elementary students.
Here is the info on Heritage Day:

“In celebration of Dublin’s Bicentennial, the Dublin Historical Society will present ‘Heritage Day’ on Saturday, Oct. 2 from 12-6 p.m. at Coffman Park and Homestead, 5300 Emerald Pkwy. Admission is free. The event will open with bagpipers calling visitors to the city’s time capsule dedication ceremony. Visitors will experience village life from the 1800s and early 1900s through a variety of games and activities, including blacksmith shop; rag-doll making and hand-made ice cream. Dublin Chamber Ambassadors will oversee tug of war and sack races.
“Other features include horse-drawn buggy rides; performances by the newly revived Dublin Cornet Band; presentations about Wyandot Chief Leatherlips, Johnny Appleseed and native wildlife; re-enactment of a one-room school; farm equipment displays; vintage dancing; and tours of the historic Coffman House and Barn.
