Falls of the Ohio Educational Experiences Fund

The Falls of the Ohio Foundation Educational Experiences Fund was originally established by Patty and Hugh Cress and supports the Foundation’s work to educate the community on the Falls of the Ohio’s natural, cultural, and historical significance. Annually, this fund ensures that area students have access to the Falls of the Ohio State Park’s Interpretive Center field trips, labs, guided tours, and educational programs, making the stories of the Falls of the Ohio accessible to EVERYONE. Click here to learn about Patty and Hugh’s story.
