Ohio Governor Mike DeWine joined Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) and local officials to celebrate the opening of a new rest area along I-75 in Auglaize county on Monday (Oct. 5).

In the afternoon, Governor DeWine cut the ribbon on the Auglaize County I-75 southbound rest area in Wapakoneta. This facility highlights nearby attractions...
There is a special exhibit featuring items from the Armstrong Air & Space Museum, such as a replica of Neil Armstrong’s A7L spacesuit, which he wore during the historic Apollo 11 moon landing on July 20, 1969. Visitors can also see a Gemini capsule model, Apollo 11 lunar module model, and a Wapakoneta Daily newspaper from July 20, 1969.
