A One-of-a-kind Experience of Hiking, Good Food, Live Music, Dancing & S’mores Around the Campfire!

Presented By Davey Tree Logo

Lace up your dancing shoes and find your way to the party!

Join us for a one-of-a-kind summer celebration as we honor the 50th anniversary of Cuyahoga Valley National Park (CVNP) at the beautiful Indigo Lake in Howe Meadow. Surrounded by stunning views, you’ll enjoy a tasty dinner, toast s’mores around a campfire and dance the night away to live music in the park. Proceeds go toward the Trails Now Fund, which provides crucial funding for trail maintenance, visitor amenities and new trailheads in CVNP.

For information on sponsorship, please contact Dan Blakemore, VP of Philanthropy, at 330.657.2909 ext. 133 or by email at dblakemore@forcvnp.org.
