Ohio
:-
Ohio is a major producer of machines, tires and rubber products,
steel, processed foods, tools, and other manufactured goods. This
is not immediately obvious because Ohio specializes in capital goods
such as machine tools, automobile parts, industrial chemicals, and
plastic moldings.
There are also numerous automobile
plants in Ohio that manufacture cars, most notably the Jeep plant
in Toledo, where the vehicles have been made since their initial
release in World War II. Honda, Ford, and General Motors also have
or had automobile plants in Ohio; in the case of the latter, one
of their plants in Ohio is located right off the Ohio Turnpike with
its own exit.
Ohio is the site of the invention
of the airplane, resulting from the experiments of the Wright brothers
in Dayton. Production of aircraft in the USA is now centered elsewhere,
but a large experimental and design facility, Wright-Patterson Air
Force Base has been located near Dayton and serves in the co-ordination
of production of US military aircraft. On the base are located Wright
Hill and Huffman Prairie, where many of the earliest aerodynamic
experiments of the Wright brothers were performed. Ohio today also
has many aerospace, defense, and NASA parts and systems suppliers
scattered throughout the state.
The Worthington School District offers innovative instruction, along
with a solid foundation of lifelong learning. Links to some of the
programs that comprise this excellent school district are included
for your review.
A hotel is an establishment that provides paid lodging, usually
on a short-term basis. Hotels often provide a number of additional
guest services such as a restaurant, a swimming pool or childcare.
Some hotels have conference services and meeting rooms and encourage
groups to hold conventions and meetings at their location.
