The Wood County Historical Society welcomed Eric Olson, from the University of Akron, as the guest speaker for the September Tea & Talk Series at the Wood County Historical Center & Museum.

The September Tea & Talk Series covered the time period during the rubber boom of the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Olson has degrees in anthropology from Ball State University and the University of Akron. He currently teaches Anthropology and Classical Studies at the University of Akron.

The program was part of a monthly tea series hosted by the Wood County Historical Society.
