Summer Time, Fun Times

Hey Neighbors,


July is a really busy time, I won't lie to you! I'm sure you can find an event in Akron every single day if you tried. Below I've listed quite a few happening in University Park and Middlebury for you to check out or help with if you have the time. As always, I appreciate your care and appreciation for our neighborhoods. Hope to see you out and about at some of these events!
