Hello Festival Goers! My name is Chad and you have probably seen me around the festival at some point. I have been volunteering with the festival since 2006, and am happy to help continue this Tiffin and Seneca County tradition for years to come! ​Currently, I run my own graphic design / website building company called Nebula Design. Originally from Fremont and migrated to Tiffin in 2009, I fell in love with this area and have no plans on leaving anytime soon. ​I am excited to help bring you a great festival experience and a fun time with your friends, family or whoever you choose to bring!

Hello fellow Tiffin lovers! My name is Rachel, and I am new to the Heritage Festival board as the representative from the Tiffin Historic Trust. I have been a resident of Tiffin since 2009 and have lived in Northwest Ohio for most of my life. Professionally, I work from home planning events and writing communications for a technology firm. I pride myself on creating truly memorable experiences that delight guests, and I hope to bring some of that creativity and energy to our festival planning efforts. Personally, I recently renovated a historic home in Tiffin with my partner, Josh, and we both share a love of preserving the heritage and charm of our community.
