Coke Exhibit
There have been many exhibits at the Grove City Welcome Center and Museum over the years but one of the most popular and best attended featured Coca Cola products. The exhibit also included a special anniversary edition Coke train.

Model T Ford
They cost much more today. The Ford Model T touring car on display at the Grove City Welcome Center and Museum originally cost $690. Notice when you visit there is no door on the driver’s side of the vehicle. It has no electric ignition; you had to use a hand crank to start the engine. The 1912 Ford was donated to the city by Louis and Joan Eyerman. It was a regular attraction in the Arts in the Alley Parade for many years.

Chief White Hawk
Chief White Hawk, as he was locally known, was a native Cherokee medicine man who sold bottled herbs remedies in the Grove City area in the mid-1920s. He and his family lived near Miller’s Station where I-71 South intersects with Harrisburg Pike. He also served nine years as an Army scout during the Indian Wars in the late 1800s.
