This weekend kicks off the summer event season for us.  The CLE is packed with all kinds of events in the summer as we Ohioans try to soak up every last ray of sunshine.  There is never a lack of things to do around here.

Saturday is my favorite event of the year, Parade the Circle.  I cannot wait and truly hope the rain holds off.  Last year we had a blast:

Also this weekend is the annual Made in the 216 event, featuring goods from local artists, craftsmen and designers.  It’s the brainchild of Danielle DeBoe, owner of Room Service and we’ve always wanted to go to this but we never seem to make it.  Mark met many of those involved in the TEDxCLE event this year, and we are going to make it there if it kills us.

From here we tumble headfirst into a summer filled with Wade Oval Wednesdays, Coventry Street Fairs, church festivals, ethnic celebrations, street fairs, art fests and more.  I love summer in the CLE!
