Here’s a closer look at our community at StoryPoint Pickerington and all of our favorite spots in and around Pickerington, Ohio.
Ohio Glass Museum
Did you know there’s an abundance of natural glass and sandstone in Ohio?
It’s true! For nearly 150 years, the glass industry has had a significant impact on Ohio’s economic growth. The Ohio Glass Museum celebrates and teaches more about that fact.
The museum has numerous classes, holds a variety of exhibits and even offers memberships for those who want to learn more about how Ohio’s natural recourses are used to create beautiful glass art.
All of us at StoryPoint Pickerington took a trip to the Ohio Glass Museum. Our friends at our sister community, StoryPoint Powell North, even met us there.
Together we had lunch and took a glass blowing class where the pros at the Ohio Glass Museum showed us just how they create glass art.
Buckeye Raceway
Buckeye Raceway has some of the newest, fastest, “clean-green” electric go-karts around. Their challenging course is a quarter mile long and filled with sharp turns and chances to hit daring speeds.
In addition to go-karting, the Buckeye Raceway offers axe throwing, tactical laser tag, footbowl and various arcade games, too.
When our residents headed to Buckeye Raceway, we had our sights set on go-karting. What an adventure!
The Pickerington Senior Center
For many seniors in Pickerington, the Pickerington Senior Center is one of their favorite places to be. The center hosts activities including, travel, social programs, monthly luncheons, bid euchre, duplicate bridge, bridge, euchre, strength classes, bingo, crafts, square dancing, watercolor classes and the summer music series.
Have you ever been line dancing? At StoryPoint Pickerington, many of our residents agreed this was something they wanted to try. We all headed over to the senior center for a line dancing class that they were hosting. We had a great time breaking out our dancing moves!
No matter what events or activities seniors are interested in, the senior center is a shared place to gather, enjoy meals and spend time getting to know one another.
Ohio Stadium
O-H! I-O!
For many residents of Ohio, Ohio Stadium is one of their favorite places in the state. We can all agree that there’s nothing like a day spent at the stadium, cheering on our favorite football team, the Buckeyes.
It had been years since some of our residents had attended a game — some hadn’t been since their 40s! When leaders at the community realized this, we knew exactly what we had to do.
We grabbed our favorite Ohio State gear and headed to the stadium to watch the Buckeyes play. While we were there, we had great weather, even greater, company and we even got to see a win. Go Bucks!
