Great Council State Park Strategic Plan
This strategic document outlines the comprehensive process of creating Great Council State Park, transforming an initial vision into a functional historical and cultural site. The plan prioritizes telling the rich history of the Shawnee people and early pioneers through the development of an interpretive center designed to reflect Shawnee heritage.

The overarching vision is to create a 'jewel' within the Ohio State Park system that fosters curiosity, educates visitors about Ohio's history, and honors the legacies of its diverse past.
