Sweeper World

Strike out for a truly excellent time when you go bowling at Southwyck Lanes. This is the largest bowling recreation center in Toledo and offers an impressive 64 lane state-of-the-art facility. There are also sixteen regulation size pool tables, a pro shop and fully-stocked snack bar.

Both train enthusiasts as well as fans of travel and history will enjoy a visit to the Toledo and Lake Erie Western Railway and Museum. Located in Waterville, this experience is most definitely worth the extra travel time, as traveling is one of the site's main attractions. Get on board the Blue Bird for a 60-minute 15 mile ride around northwest Ohio. This is a unique train tour that will delight the entire family.

The Toledo Botanical Garden is a benchmark against which similar gardens are measured throughout the country, and with good reason. This is considered to be one of the pioneering gardens because of its dramatically beautiful visual and natural presentation. Fragrant meadows of sunflowers and wildflowers, rose gardens, herb gardens and sharply manicured walkways make spending time here something special for the entire family. Also, the kids will especially love visiting the recreated pioneer garden which many consider to be one of the site's main attractions.
