Walk in Wick Park tour set Saturday

YOUNGSTOWN — Join members of the Mahoning Valley Historical Society for a Walk in Wick Park from 4:30 to 6:30 p.m. Saturday.

Those participating are asked to meet at First Unitarian Universalist Church, 1105 Elm St., to begin the tour through and around the park.

Participants will hear tales about some of the most affluent families in the city during the era of industrialization, their estates, and the cultural institutions that surround the park.

Stay afterward for light refreshments and view the final design plans for the Wick Park Revitalization Project, a multimillion-dollar effort to update and improve the North Side park.

For more information, contact the historical society at (330) 743-2589. The event is co-sponsored by Youngstown CityScape.
