Message from the Mayor

I am Panther Proud!  Congratulations to the Euclid High School Football team for their success this season so far.   It has been a long time since Euclid has beat Mentor!  Congrats to Coach Rotsky and the  entire team on  their hard work and great start to the season. 

Why is this important?  In many communities, the whole town comes out to support high school football games.   A Friday night football game gives the community the opportunity to come together, cheer on the kids/ school and instill a sense of pride in the community.  This is not limited to football or even sports – but we can rally around other activities, events.  Do you talk positively about our community?  Do you brag about what is happening around town?  Do you support our local schools, churches, non-profit activities? 

The Euclid Recreation Department holds activiites through-out the weekend – soccer on fields bordering Babbitt Road, football at The Euclid High School stadium and hockey games at the  CE Orr Ice Arena.  There are baseball games and softball games going on through the fall as well.  Stop by and cheer on our teams!

 Interested in Theatre?  Shore and Silouette Productions will present The Music Man the weekends of October 14, 15,16th and Oct 21, 22, 23rd.  The Euclid Symphony Orchestra will perform their Fall Concert Sunday October 30th at 3:00 pm at Shore Cultural Centre.

Support our community organizations:  Pet  Pals hosts 4 Paws Clam Jam and Boo Bash on October 28th at Tizzano’s Party Center to support the Animal Shelter.  The Henn Mansion, a non-profit organization holds Open Houses every Wednesday from 7:00 pm to 9:00 pm.   

One of the best ways to build a strong thriving community is to develop civic pride.  Civic pride brings the community together and makes us feel good about where we live, work and play.  Civic pride drives us to action and is contagious.   I am Panther Proud – please join me in showing your pride!
