LAKE FRONT CALENDAR of EVENTS...

2024 Calendar of Events

By Catharine Hadley, Arts and Entertainment Editor, catharinehadley@gmail.com

The theme of this column is "trying new things." I'm happy to be starting this new project of writing the entertainment column for Leisure Living Magazine! I've done all I could to make the entertainment listing complete and varied, so there should be something for everyone. Although I've done my best to make sure all the information is accurate, please go online or call ahead to confirm your plans.

Any suggestions and details of your upcoming events can be sent to me at catharinehadley@gmail.com.

I love writing this column, because I get the chance to see all the fun things I could do in the coming months. It's particularly fun when the calendar is filled with springtime activities.

Of course, the novelty of the April 8 total eclipse has received a lot of attention - but there are plenty of other ways to enjoy our natural assets.

Schedel Arboretum and Gardens in Elmore opens for the season on April 2, but I've marked my calendar for a workshop there a bit earlier. The Mindful Wellness Herb and Garden Spring Symposium is on March 23, and will feature speakers and discussion about gardening topics.

As usual, Earth Day is a day to celebrate at Osborn MetroPark in Erie County. The April 20 event will include plenty of family-friendly and educational activities. Arbor Day is the following Friday, April 26.

The Ottawa National Wildlife Refuge is open for wildlife drives from time to time. Check the calendar listing below for dates.

I will have details on the Biggest Week in American Birding, which runs May 3 through 12, in my next column.

Please submit suggestions and events for the May edition to catharinehadley@gmail.com by April 1.
