We spent four fantastic years together on the hill at Kenyon College. Check out some of our favorites spots while you're in town:
#1 The Gambier Deli: Great for coffee, a late breakfast, or a delicious sandwich at any time (Tyler's favorite: toasted double chocolate muffin; Callie's favorite: all things bacon).
#2 Walk down Middle Path: Kenyon isn't rated the #1 most beautiful campus in the US for nothing! If the weather is nice spend some time on the South Quad Lawn (great for kickball, frisbee golf, bocce, and the list goes on).
#3 The Gap Trail & Brown Family Environmental Center: Explore 480 acres of beautiful Kokosing River Valley scenery, great for biking and walking or tube down the Kokosing if you're feeling more adventurous!
#4 The Kenyon Athletic Center (KAC): Perfect for a long workout, swim/sauna session, and a smoothie; guest passes are available (alums get in for free)
#5 Go See Peirce Hall: The Great Hall looks just like Hogwarts! If you want to experience real magic visit the pop machine where Tyler "Furste" met Callie.
