Geocache Description:

This cache is at the Lou Holtz/Upper Ohio Valley Hall of Fame
Building in East Liverpool OH

In 1996 Lou Holtz, legendary football coach and East Liverpool native, was approached about a museum that would celebrate his achievements. He declined stating he did not want a shrine to himself or a monument to the past. He finally agreed when the idea was expanded to include the “hall of fame” concept. Today, four to six residents or natives of the Upper Ohio Valley are recognized and inducted into the Hall of Fame each year. Inductees are those who have excelled in their fields of endeavor and have served as inspiration for the young people of the region. Some of the more notable people have been Jerome Bettis, Robert Urich, Regis Philbin; Dean Martin and Clark Gable posthumously. Amongst the many local inductees are; Joan Witt, Hans Hacker, Nick Trombetta, Rose Angelica, John C. Thompson, and Frank Dawson. Coach Holtz provides funding each year for trade school scholarships to local students so they might make positive improvements to their lives. The Hall of Fame also provides a grant program for area teachers that helps defray the costs of enabling students to reach their dreams of success.
The Hall of Fame is open from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. weekdays and 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. on Saturdays. There is no admission charge, but donations are welcome. Group tours are available by calling 330-386-5443.
