NEOEA-R will host the 2026 OEA-R Statewide Spring Conference at Stan Hywet Hall and Gardens in Akron on Tuesday, April 21, 2026.

We are planning a guided tour starting at 10:30 AM with the availability of self-guided tours of the grounds and other buildings afterwards as part of the package. In addition, we will be able to have lunch together at the Akron Family Restaurant at 12:30 PM. 

The cost for the tour and lunch will be approximately $30.00

Stan Hywet was built and lived in for 40 years by the Sieberling family, co-founders of Goodyear Tire and Rubber. The tour will explore the history of the mansion and show what life was like in the early 1900s.
