The City of Gahanna is proudly celebrating its 175th anniversary in 2024, a momentous milestone in history. Join us in commemorating the City’s history and future together.
As we celebrate Gahanna’s 175th anniversary, hear about one of the City’s many inspiring stories – the story of the Big Walnut Country Club. Once one of the first Black country clubs in the United States, the Big Walnut Country Club was a social, political, and professional hub for the Black community. It is now honored by the City’s first historical marker on the land it once occupied at Friendship Park. Reita Smith will share her memories of visiting the Club on this very special evening.
