We have posted a revised and extensive article on the history of Beulah Park, starting with a community area created by a well-known name in Grove City, repurposed to a horse racing track for many decades—and now a community park again. Many thanks to member Jim Hale for his hard work on this effort! Check it out!

The Columbus Dispatch Sunday Magazine introduced Grove City’s two police dogs in 1963. Pictured is Glenn Stoll with his German Sheperd, Rusty. Lowell (Gene) Downey also had a trained dog named Prince. The dogs were mostly used in burglary investigations. The program was introduced by Police Chief E. L. Evans and were trained by the Air Force at Lockbourne AFB (Rickenbacker Port Authority).

We hope you had the chance to visit Century Village this past Saturday for our annual Heritage Celebration! We have additional opportunities for you to experience the Village, including newly added tours! Take a look at the Century Village page for more details, and keep an eye on our Events page.
