Bowling-Green
is located in Wood County in northwest Ohio. As of the 2010 census, the population was 30,028. Bowling Green is near the city of Toledo and is home to Bowling Green State University. The city of Bowling Green was originally built on the edge of the Great Black Swamp, which was a glacially caused wetland that extended from Lake Erie, down through northwestern Ohio to northeastern Indiana. It existed until the second half of the 19th century, when it was gradually drained and settled. It's now extremely fertile farmland. Bowling Green is the largest city in the remnants of this swampland of marsh and wetlands. Each September, the city hosts the Black Swamp Arts Festival, which is ranked 78 out of 100 for craft festivals by Sunshine Artists Magazine. The festival features a juried art show, children's activities, great food and live entertainment on four musical stages. Other attractions in Bowling Green include the National Tractor Pulling Championships, one of the largest such events in the U.S., and the Wood County Fair, held at the end of July/first of August. In February, Bowling Greens holds a three-day Winterfest, which centers around ice-skating and ice hockey. Other events during Winterfest include ice sculptures, carriage rides, live entertainment and athletic events. Bowling Green is also home to a Living History Car Museum, which features automobiles from the 1930s - 1960s, plus a replica of a 1940s Texaco gasoline station.
