Memorial Day 2013 Activities

Memorial Day 2013 Cleveland and Columbus Activities

In Ohio, summer officially starts in June, but our thick skin and desire for sunshine will get us out of the house much earlier than that! This weekend marks the start of fun and sun in Cleveland and Columbus, and if you aren’t too busy packing, moving, or cleaning, there is plenty to do and see in our area! Hire the pros for the chores and get out to have some fun with your friends and family.

Cleveland Fun

Rib Cook-offs : Two, yes, TWO, rib cook-offs! The Great American Rib Cook-Off in Cleveland and the Berea Rib Cook-Off will be joining the list of things to see and do (and eat) this weekend in northeast Ohio.

Memorial Day Parades: The cities of Mentor and Ashtabula each host a Memorial Day Parade, so be sure to check out your city as well!

Cedar Point: Honoring active, retired, and honorably discharged members of the U.S. Military with FREE admission for a one-day ticket to Cedar Point! A short drive from Cleveland or Columbus, this is a great weekend feature!

Haven’t seen anything to get excited about yet?

Columbus Fun

Parades and Ceremonies: Green, Centerville, the King Lincoln District, and Beavercreek are among the places celebrating this weekend with parades and ceremonies!

Columbus Zoo: The Dinosaur Island Display exhibit begins at the Columbus Zoo and Aquarium.

Keep busy, pack the sunscreen and water, and enjoy the start of the new summer season! The weather forecasts should cooperate in both Cleveland and Columbus!
