The Great American Travel Challenge:  Iconic Sights in the 50 States

Jan Whitaker

10:00 – noon, Thursday, Oct. 26

How well do you know the monuments, icons, and distinctive scenes of our country? This unique class will contain both friendly competition and lessons about the icons of each state in the Union! Everyone will be shown an unidentified but iconic sight and asked to write down the state in which it is located. Then the locations will be shared, along with the story of the site as well as other famous sights in each state. No grades, but there will be prizes for those who accurately identify the most states!

An inveterate traveler, willing to go anywhere anytime, Jan Whitaker is an Ohio native with a lifelong interest in the history of our area. Previously Jan spoke about the 1,200-mile Buckeye Trail and shared personal stories of her hike, as well as regional National Park Sites she has visited.
