We’re Renaming Windows…What’s Your Suggestion?
Windows has been Heritage Ohio's Preservation & Revitalization publication since 2001, keeping Ohioans updated about the latest news.
As you’ve probably seen, Heritage Ohio has a new look for 2012. However, it’s not just our new logo. While our member publication, Windows, has kept you updated about Ohio preservation & revitalization over the past 11 years, it’s time to freshen up the look of it (including the title) and that’s where we need your help. We’re renaming Windows and want your suggestions!
Either like our Facebook page and post your suggested magazine name on our wall, OR enter your suggested name in the comments section below. We will accept naming entries until Friday, January 20, 2012.
The winning suggestion will receive a complimentary one-night stay for two at the Georgian Manor Inn – B&B in Norwalk. If we receive multiple identical winning suggestions, one name will be chosen from random to receive the one-night stay at the Georgian Manor.
Good luck and send us your suggestions!
Update: the issue we’ve had with our comments section has been resolved, so you’re welcomed to post your suggestion below!
Seneca County Courthouse Webcam
Live Cam from Seneca County Courthouse demolition
A sad day for all of Ohio; the demolition of Seneca County Courthouse scheduled to begin today. A day that will be regretted by Ohioans for decades.
New Year. New Look.
And more than just the look! Heritage Ohio has worked to refine our message, focus our activities and rebuild our website to better serve Ohio communities. Our new look reflects improvements to help us carry out our mission:
As Ohio’s official historic preservation and Main Street organization, Heritage Ohio fosters economic development and sustainability through preservation of historic buildings, revitalization of downtowns and neighborhood commercial districts, and promotion of cultural tourism.
The new Heritage Ohio brand identity represents the vitality and individuality of Ohio communities and how, when united, they create a colorful and vibrant Ohio.
