Dear Friends,

Spring is here and with summer not far behind, the City of Euclid will be filled with many events and programs for all to enjoy.  Back by popular demand is the Summer at Sims Concert Series. The concerts will be on the last Thursday of the month from 6:00 to 9:00 p.m. with the kick-off on May 28th. The concerts are held on the shores of Lake Erie in Sims Park, 21311 Lakeshore Blvd.  Bring your lawn chair or blanket and along with good music, enjoy the tasty menu items from the participating Food Trucks.  For more details go to www.cityofeuclid.com or the Summer at Sims Facebook page.

The 9th annual East 200th Street Stroll will be held on Saturday, May 30th from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. The Stroll is a wonderful community event that features the businesses and organizations in the East 200th Street area.

I look forward to seeing many of you at our annual Memorial Day Parade and ceremonies on Monday, May 25th.  Morning graveside ceremonies will be held at 7:45 a.m. at Euclid Cemetery and 8:15 a.m. at St. Paul Cemetery. The parade will begin at East 228 Street and Lakeshore Blvd at 10:00 a.m. and will travel down East 222nd Street to the Euclid Public Library.  Following the parade, there will be a service at the Veterans Memorial next the Euclid Library.
