Please be informed that a Civil War-era cannon will be fired from the West Plaza of the Ohio Statehouse Wednesday, May 22, 2024. This will be done as part of the vintage base ball game. The event is free and open to the public. The Feed Your Soul Kitchen food truck will be at the corner of High Street and State Street at 5:30 p.m.

Civil War cannon firing demonstrations are scheduled to take place in the evening between 5:25 and 8 p.m. The Statehouse cannon may fire a maximum of three times during the event.

As these sounds can be startling, we wish to give advance notice to everyone working on and near Capitol Square. If you have any questions, please contact Mike Rupert at 614-728-4185.
