The Charles F. Kettering History Walk On Spring Evening No. 6
The Story: Today’s Delco Park in Kettering Ohio owes its existence to the family of Charles F. Kettering. In 1953, Delco expanded its Dayton footprint into what is now Kettering Ohio. After the plant was constructed, the company created the Delco Sportsman’s Club which hosted 24,000 people at its company picnic the following year. Years later as Delco sold its properties, Virginia Kettering lobbied General Motors to donate the land to the city. Today, Delco Park is one of several parks operated by the City of Kettering Parks, Recreation and Cultural Arts Department where it features a lake, walking paths and the Kettering Veteran’s Plaza, and the C.F. Kettering History Walk. Surrounding the Kettering Veteran’s Plaza is the three-part C. F. Kettering history walk where this station highlights the life of Charles Kettering.
