Founder's Wayside Details
The Founder's Wayside grove stands nearly in the shadow of the Everett Covered Bridge and pays homage to the individuals who fought the long and difficult battle to establish Cuyahoga Valley National Park -- a dream that once was opposed even by the National Park Service itself. Plaques tell the story of how advocate John F. Sieberling spent decades promoted the idea of creating the park, and how Rep. Ralph Regula successfully championed the plan in Congress.
