Wolcott Heritage Center
The Wolcott House will be open to the public free of charge, showcasing a detailed Battle of Lexington Green diorama built by Maumee Valley Historical Society Board Member, Historical Reenactor, and renowned Local and National Presenter, Dave Westrick. Visitors can also explore artifacts from the Maumee Valley Historical Society’s vast collection, dating back to the Revolutionary War, offering a rare opportunity to connect with our nation’s history.
Friday, April 18, 2025 – We invite the community to light two lights—one to honor those who built our nation and another to inspire the generations who will shape its future. Whether it’s a candle, a porch light, or re-hanging your holiday lights, your participation helps unite us in reflection and hope.
Join us as we honor the past and inspire the future!
