Bucket-List Idea:
Choose a collectable pin, patch, or walking stick medallion representing Ohio’s national park (see them here). Include it with a Passport to Your National Parks® passport book to inspire future travel plans!
We have everything you need for CVNP fans, near and far. Our selection of hoodies, hats, tees (and more) will let them show their park pride in style! Complete the gift with a CVNP mug, water bottle, sticker, key chain or magnet.
Iconic Idea:
The Great Blue Heron and Brandywine Falls are icons of CVNP. Celebrate them both with custom designed products by McGovern Outdoor. Along with this water bottle, we have a long-sleeved tee, tote, pint glass, socks, and magnet in the same new design!
Create merry memories together. Family and friends will love our park-themed puzzles, games, and activities, perfect for chilly winter evenings or snowy days. And our park mugs are ideal for anyone who loves to gather by the fire with a cup of cocoa or hot apple cider!
Refreshing Idea:
Raise a glass and toast the holidays with our CVNP glassware. Gift a pint glass (or two) alongside Thirsty Dog Brewing Company’s Kendall Lake Kölsch, their new brew made in honor of CVNP’s 50th anniversary (sold in select local Acme, Heinen’s, Buehler’s, and Giant Eagle stores).
Foster a love for the outdoors in the youngest adventurers with engaging children’s books, toys, and games designed to inspire curiosity and a connection to nature.
Wild Idea:
Young birders will love one of these plush feathered friends. Stop by Trail Mix to see our awesome in-store selection of wild birds. Nest it with a birding book and watch their imagination take flight!
Whether you need stocking stuffers, something unique for your special someone, or want to create a nature-inspired gift basket, you’ll find a range of park souvenirs, mini-journals, handcrafted jewelry, ornaments, and so much more!
Delicious Idea:
Savor the flavors of the region with delectable local foods, artisanal treats, and savory selections. We love these little jars of Akron Honey, the perfect addition to a hot cup of tea on a cold winter’s day!
