2019 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.

Events Along the North Coast
Last year was my first year witnessing the Witches' Walk Sandusky, which is scheduled for Oct. 23. I was prepared for some fun costumes. I was not prepared for the amazing creativity some of the participants delivered! This year will include a strolling magician, a scavenger hunt, music, trivia, and possibly a dance at the fountain! Proceeds benefit area charities.
Most local community theaters take a break of some sort over the summer. Now is the time when the members start rehearsing! Check the schedules - attending a locally-produced play is a wonderful way to enjoy your community and perhaps see people you know in a totally different light.
