Great Western Walk-O-Wonders
Built in the late 50s, this site was visited by most on the westside, many from Columbus, and often tour groups from around the US.
It was closed in 1970 due to the cost to keep the site in proper shape.
After receiving Internet pictures of the display, we used one in the summer Alumni Occident newsletter. Others we have found in the Internet are shown here, along with a few details we also found on the Walk-O-Wonders!

OSU Basketball Captains from West High!
West High is the only high school to have more than one person captain an OSU Basketball Team, and West has had not two but THREE!
For the first time, on January 8, 2011, we got a picture of our three West guys together. They were all in town for the January 9 Captains Club Game.
Jim Remington '46 Jan. flew in from La Habra Heights, California where he has lived for many years. Jim was captain of the 1951 team.
Michael Redd '97 was captain of the 2000 OSU team. Michael still lives in the central Ohio area when not playing with the NBA Milwaukee Bucks. Injuries in both of the past two seasons have kept him from playing complete seasons with the Bucks, but he is optimistic his rehab work in Columbus will get him back playing before the 2010-2011 season is over.
Dick Furry '
56 Jan. captained the Buckeyes in 1962. Dick has made his home in Rocky River Ohio for several years.
