LAKE FRONT CALENDAR of EVENTS...

2023 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.

The Jackson Street Pier has come alive so many nights this summer with concerts and other events, and that fun momentum is continuing into the autumn season! Check out the North Coast Oktoberfest on Sept. 29, and the Sandusky Donut Fest on Oct. 14.

The downtown area will be bewitchingly transformed on Saturday, Oct. 21 for the annual Witches Walk. I'm ready to witness some magic! The event will feature a costume contest, prizes, specials at nearby businesses, live music, and more. The fountain at the Schade-Mylander Plaza will become the cauldron. If you're interested, sign up early so you can get the instructional video to learn the "witches dance" that will be part of the kick-off of the festivities.

If you need more spookiness, go to downtown Vermilion through the month of October. The Main Street Vermilion's "Shake, Rattle & Stroll" event is back. Scary skeletons invade the downtown businesses and shop windows, showing off their creativity and senses of humor. If you're planning a trip to Vermilion, you might want to go on Sunday, Oct. 8 for the annual Woollybear Festival.

St. John Evangelical Lutheran Church in Port Clinton will have a Fall Festival from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. on Saturday, Oct 21. Vendors, crafted items, themed baskets, pus dine-in and carry-out lunch. Remember, it's not too early to begin holiday gift shopping. I love finding treasures at local fundraisers. Those gifts are more personal, and often unique - plus, the purchase can make a difference in the local community.

Enjoy your autumn - both the spooky and the cozy parts of the season!

Please submit suggestions for the Holiday 2023 edition to catharinehadley@gmail.com by Oct. 25.
