Nature Center

The Nature Center at Ohio University Southern was established in April 1999 in partnership with the U.S. Forest Service's Wayne National Forest [4]. The Nature Center's campus contains a classroom, laboratory and exhibit building ("CLE") and an office and computer lab ("OCL") in the Lake Vesuvius Recreation Area. It is located seven miles north of the central campus in Ironton.

Its primary purpose is to provide "hands-on" experience in "developing and directing" outdoor education activities [4]. It features numerous workshops for K-12 school teachers to develop curriculum materials and for K-12 students to learn more about the environment. It also offers a degree program, the four-year Bachelor of Specialized Studies, for students of Ohio University Southern. Graduates of the program are often employed by the U.S. Forest Service and the Army Corps of Engineers.

It also offers various programs and events for the public.

The Ohio Horse Park

The Ohio Horse Park, located in Franklin Furnace, Ohio, is a large 184 acre (745,000 m²) horse farm [5]. It contains an outdoor show, dressage, indoor and indoor therapy arena. It has 44 stalls for show rental, two classrooms and one common area and camper hookups for shows and travelers. It is home to the Ohio University Southern Reproduction Center, the Ohio Horse Park Center for Therapeutic Riding, Ohio University Southern Equine Studies Program, Ohio University Southern Southern Equestrian Teams, Ohio University Southern Community Lesson Program, and events from ten different organizations.

It also offers rental of facilities for shows and clinics to the public [5].

Two disciplines of horseback riding at four different levels are taught at the horse park [5]. In the beginning level of either discipline, either Hunt Seat 1 or Western 1, the groundwork is laid for basic horse care, proper horse handling, and basic riding skills. The riding classes become more difficult at each subsequent level, and require that more and more of a student's time be spent at the horse park.

Ohio University Proctorville Center

The new Proctorville branch of Ohio University Southern Campus.

Ohio University Proctorville Center began offering classes in trailers at the Lawrence County Fairgrounds at Proctorville in the late-1970s [6]. It moved to schools in Chesapeake and at Fairfield before opening a new center on Ohio State Route 7 in downtown Proctorville in 1992. An increase in enrollment led to cramped conditions and calls for a new facility.

In 2000, Proctorville resident Marshall L. Smith donated land on Ohio State Route 775 for the new Proctorville Center.[7] Design work for the 17,000 sq. ft. structure began in 2004. Ground breaking for the new building was held on July 12, 2005[3][6]. It was completed in September 2006 for $4.9 million, most of which came from donations from the community. The new, permanent structure includes 14 classrooms, including a distance-learning room, a computer lab, a commons room and a resource room. The building is named Greg Smith Hall in honor of Marshall L. Smith's late son.[7]

It offers numerous Ohio University Southern classes and many community-oriented classes, including ballroom dancing and computer basics [6].
