In Those Years Gone by--About Twins Days in Twinsburg

The Twins Day Festival in 1976 started with a flag raising and dedication of the Wilcox Monument on the square, the dedication of the first picnic shelter at Glenn Chamberlin Park. 1976 also saw many other firsts, such as the now famous Revco Marathon, which started in Twinsburg and finished in Cleveland. "Thunder Chicken" performed a skydiving act and the Fireman's Association served a hamburger, corn-on-the-cob, and a soft drink for 76 cents. There were 37 sets of twins in attendance that first year.
