Fascinating Ohio: A Route 66 photographer, a local author and a 'Fairy Goodmother'

This year marks the centennial of Route 66, the iconic American highway stretching from Chicago to LA and celebrated in story, song and television.

It’s been over 30 years since the highway was decommissioned, but we will hear from one photographer who’s love of Route 66 has been memorialized in the form of stamps.

A local author is fusing history lessons with ghost stories to create a fun and interesting way to learn Ohio history. Having already written two books in his “Ohio Kids” series and coming out with a third, he is continuing his family tradition of finding new ways of teaching.

Cost should never prevent students from sharing experiences with their peers and having a good time. Fairy Goodmothers is a Worthington boutique that allows high school students to pick out prom dresses for free.
