This group is promoting sailing at little to no cost in order to increase awareness and the number of participants. Since the 1930's, on Portage Lakes, sailing has captured and symbolized the American …

This is a group created to inspire friendship and enjoying life to the fullest. I recognized that Medina County didn't have a group like this to offer in the area, so I sought out to change that.

A club to take advantage of two of the best things about Northeast Ohio- beautiful places to bike ride and great places for craft beer! Get-togethers will mostly consist of a scenic, social ride through the area with the destination being a place to sample some good beer.

A few people have asked how to or …
