County fairs always seem to bring out the best in people. That tradition still holds true at the Cuyahoga County Fair held every August. The fact that the fair has been held every year for the past 115 years speaks volumes about its tradition and popularity. Check out the farm animals in competition but don't forget to treat yourself to the fried cheese and other tasty snacks. More than twenty midway rides, 100 food vendors, country music and a demolition derby all make this a must-attend festival!
The Rocky River Nature Center offers several excellent recreation trails designed more for walking and getting closer to the natural beauty of Cleveland's Rocky River Reservation. The beautiful area stretches out north of Cedar Point in North Olmsted.
Kids seem to be used to being told to not touch things. But at the Children's Museum of Cleveland, they are encouraged to enjoy all of the many interactive, hands-on activities that are available to them. The venue's many exhibits and attractions feature everything from exploring the sands found in Galapagos, pirate adventures for treasure, and various family-oriented presentations. It's a great way for the kids to have fun while they are learning!
