This morning and afternoon, residents and business people from Crawford, Richland and Marion Counties came to Galion for the first-ever "Your Old House Day," co-sponsored by the Galion Historical Society and Preservation Ohio.

Below are a handful of photos from today's workshops.  In addition to these speakers, Thomas Palmer of Preservation Ohio spoke on researching house and building histories, as well as financial incentives for historic preservation.

Preservation Ohio will be holding more of these workshops in 2009 in locations across Ohio.
