For the past year, many have been cooped up indoors and apart from others more than ever before, but the outdoors have always offered an escape! With this in mind, we decided to highlight Ohio's outdoor spaces. Do you have great images of local parks? People hiking? Picnicking? Enjoying the great outdoors? Ohio is filled with local, state, and federal parks to enjoy, outdoor attractions, and more. Do you have people represented in your archives instrumental to parks development? All of these are examples for wonderful submissions! </span><br style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"><br style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;"><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">If interested in participating, please submit your images to Connie Conner at </span><a href="mailto:cconner@ohiohistory.org" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto;">cconner@ohiohistory.org</a><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);"> by </span><a href="x-apple-data-detectors://1" dir="ltr" x-apple-data-detectors="true" x-apple-data-detectors-type="calendar-event" x-apple-data-detectors-result="1" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); text-decoration-color: rgba(128, 128, 128, 0.38);">Friday, April 2, 2021</a><span style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255);">.
