Rome Township Bicentennial
August 5 - 6, 2006

ROME TOWNSHIP

Celebrate a once in a lifetime Birthday 1806 - 2006 at Rome Bicentennial Days. 

One of the many things that we will be doing that day is taking a 14.5-mile bike ride.

The ride will start off at 9:15 a.m. at the Rome Fire Hall.  The tour will include the Roaming Shores area.

The cost  is $15 person, and riders will receive a visor hat and a voucher for eating breakfast prior to the ride, then have lunch after the ride.

Guidelines for Bike Ride:
1. Minimum age requirement is 12 years old.
2. Pre-registration is required.  Contact Margie Darling (440) 563-5301.
3. Riders will be required to sign a disclaimer and release form and pay the $15.  (Look for the table that has the sign Rome Bicentennial Bike Ride.)

Bicentennial Breakfast 8 to 11 a.m. at the Rome Fire Hall.  The cost is $5 for adults and $3 for children.  Menu includes Pancakes, eggs, sausage, potatoes, toast and coffee, tea or milk.

"Games from the past" will be a part of the Bicentennial in Rome Twp. on Aug. 5th.  Learn marbles, croquet, hop-scotch, hula-hoops, and horseshoe pitching.  There will also be kickball and an inflatable jumping game.  Join the many fun activities while you learn of the township's 200 year history.

Enjoy the music by the Erie Heights Brass Ensemble and Marian Alderman, or try your hand at square dancing at the Rome Bicentennial on Aug. 5th.

Music will be provided throughout the day along with other "era displays", antique cars and tractors, lots of food, and township memorabilia from our 200 year history.

Join us Saturday and Sunday for the Bicentennial events at the Rome Fire Hall.

Sunday at the Rome Township Bicentennial includes breakfast at the Fire Hall from 8 to 11 a.m., the community church service at 11 a.m. at the Historic Presbyterian Church, and the burying of the time capsule at the township veteran's memorial.
