Open Letter to Hinckley Ohio Township:
I would like to introduce myself, Charles Gibson, your current President of the Hinckley Historical Society (HHS). This is my second tour of duty as President, following David Manley, who provided the HHS with several years of great leadership. Dave was instrumental in kicking off the initial planning for the 2025 Hinckley Ohio Bicentennial Celebration. This special event was a total success for our Hinckley community.
Our goal this year, in 2026, is to provide our membership with opportunities to participate in public meetings, where we will have some interesting historical topics discussed. This Spring, we will be hosting John Burke, who will reenact the history of Judge Hinckley, and his involvement with the establishment of Hinckley Township.
Our 2026 plans for the HHS building to be open to the public are as follows:
The 3rd Sunday, from March through October, from 1 pm to 4pm.
The 1st Tuesday, from April through October, from 6 pm to 8 pm.
Appointments available by request.
Sincerely,
Charles Gibson, President
