Root Beer & Yesteryear

Join friends old and new at the Oberlin Heritage Center for this free, family-friendly event featuring live music by the Eerie Invaders, who play surf guitar noir instrumentals infused with tiki voodoo! Also get excited for vintage video games in the Little Red Schoolhouse, an information table for the Lorain County Beekeepers Association, demonstrations by the Lorain County Spinners and Weavers Guild, yard games, the Lorain County Bicentennial traveling exhibit and best of all -- root beer floats for everyone! Why root beer? Throughout most of its history Oberlin was a "dry" town, meaning you couldn't buy alcohol within city limits. Times have changed but a fondness for this summer treat hasn’t. The floats are generously provided by Oberlin IGA, and there will also be free popcorn.
