Doc Watson's always seems to attract an interesting and attractive cross-section of patrons. There are young professionals, college kids and lovers of great live music. All of these patrons convene here regularly to enjoy a beer and live music nearly every night. The stage is always featuring performers who deliver everything from blues to acoustic rock, and when the band takes a break, there is an impressively-stocked jukebox that keeps the mood up in this highly appealing nightlife venue.
The Toledo Ballet has always had a good reason to dance. This entertainment group has been maintaining its impressive tradition of stunning, impressively choreographed performances for over 70 years and there is no sign of stopping. In addition to presenting works that are based on the classics, the ballet also incorporates modern touches to different presentations throughout their season. This includes elements of jazz, hip-hop, and musical theater that all work to not only challenge the dancers to new levels of performance, but also appeals to a wider audience who otherwise may not have ever thought of catching one of the ballet's mesmerizing performances.
Fans of nature and the great outdoors feel right at home at Toledo's Wildwood Preserve Metropark. This is one of the area's most visually stunning examples of a tall-grass prairie and all of the life and beauty that are associated with it. There are plenty of fun activities available here that include a boardwalk, a covered bridge, a 100-year-old schoolhouse and even a hiking trail that leads to the University Parks Trail.
