We have recently added QR codes to gravestones and monuments that are on our Landmarks and Points of Interest Map. This project, Connecting Dayton’s Past to the Present with QR Technology will allow visitors to learn more about Woodland’s history by scanning a QR code. This will provide easier access to our history and have a greater impact on education, youth development and expanding accessibility to the community. This project was funded by a Greenlight Grant from The Dayton Foundation.

Next time you are at Woodland, stop by our office for a map and look for the QR codes!
