The Toledo Mud Hens are one of minor league baseball's oldest teams, dating all the way back to 1896. The team is an affiliate of the MLB Detroit Tigers. The sports team plays their home games at Fifth Third Field and won the International League Governor's Cup in 2006.
It is a rarity when a city's history is as well preserved as it is at Toledo's Old West End Historic District which is located just outside of downtown and uptown. The district encompasses the area from the Toledo Museum of Art at Monroe Street up to Collins and Central, and from Glenwood Avenue to Collingwood Boulevard. In that remarkable space, there are several historic homes and mansions that still echo the city's marvelous past. Tours of these houses are available Saturdays and Sundays between 10am and 5pm. Call ahead or check the website for more details.

Some of the area's most talented individuals bring their skills to this performing group both on stage and behind the scenes to create some magical entertainment. Everything from musicals to comedies to dramas are staged here throughout the year, as the tradition of fine performances continues for more generations of theater lovers to enjoy.
