And furthermore, encour- ages all residents and visitors of Dayton to take a hike on the Buckeye and North Country Trail.” Thus, Dayton became the second and largest city on the Buckeye and North Country Trail so designated. Brent Anslinger, Program Operations Manager for Five Rivers Brent Anslinger Metroparks, defined “trail town” for the audience. He said Recognition of Trail Town Status – Mayor Gary Leitzel, BTA Executive Director it is a community through which the Buckeye and North Andrew Bashaw, and NCTA Director of Trail Development Andrea Ketchmark Country Trail passes that supports hikers with services, promotes the trail to its citizens, and embraces the trail as a resource to be protected and celebrated. Dayton City Commissioner Nan Whaley said Dayton was grateful and excited for the designation saying, “It’s not every day that Dayton is the largest community that is part of something that reaches 4,600 miles.” She added that Dayton is proud to add an urban flavor to the trail and to use the opportu- nity to highlight one of the city’s greatest amenities, the Great Miami River.

  • Historic Context
    3.0 HISTORIC CONTEXT 3.1 Overview of Ohio, 1940–1950 During World War II, Ohio experienced significant industrial development and population growth. The state’s diversified industrial base and geographical proximity to transportation routes and other population centers made it well suited for wartime production needs. The industrial development and consequential economic prosperity generated during World War II shaped Ohio’s economic, cultural, and social history for decades thereafter. The United States resisted involvement in World War II from 1939 through much of 1941. Even as the Axis powers swept through Europe and eastern Asia, American isolationists insisted that the U.S. had no key interests at stake. At President Franklin D. Roosevelt’s urging, Congress enacted a “cash and carry” policy in 1939, allowing the U.S. to supply goods to any nation that could pay cash and carry the goods away (Knepper 2003:367). While providing great assistance to Great Britain and its allies, the program also offered economic benefits to the U.S., which remained enmeshed in the Great Depression. More importantly, it began the process of shifting American industries to a wartime footing. In September 1940, Congress established the first peacetime military draft in the nation’s history. The Ohio National Guard was activated and designated the 37th Division. Guard units traveled to Camp Shelby, Mississippi, for training. In Columbus, Fort Hayes served as a reception center for military draftees and recruits and was staffed by 2,000 troops in its own right (Fort Hayes Metropolitan Education Center 2010). Roosevelt, a Democrat, handily won Ohio in the November 1940 presidential election, but Republicans dominated the state government and the Congressional delegation.
