Driving into campus you can also see Edwards Mill, Lake Honor, Stained Glass and Candle Shop, Hoge Greenhouses, Gaetz Tractor Museum, Williams Memorial Chapel, Fruit and Jelly Kitchen, 9/11 Memorial, Ralph Foster Museum, Point Lookout, the College Creamery, and more!! We spent a good portion of our day here, including an AMAZING meal at the Keeter Center. Wear comfortable shoes and plan to get in and out of the car often. Students work in all of the buildings are are eager to explain their work to you. Everyone was extremely friendly. There was plenty of parking at all locations. Everything was free to do except the Ralph Foster Museum which charges $6.00 for adults. High School age and under are free.

My sister and I came here for massages while our husbands were out on the golf course. Tori Brewer did my massage and it was one of the best that I have ever had.
