One of our core values is belonging. I cannot think of a more inclusive event—an event for all ages, at all stages of life. Our partnership with Headlands Beach State Park and our many community collaborators including local and state partners such as the Department of Natural Resources, City of Mentor Police and Fire Departments, the Lake County Sheriff’s Office, just to name a few, make this an event like no other.
