CALENDAR OF EVENTS By MONTH SORRY, I HAVE NOT HAD TIME TO DO 2006- OR LATER - PLEASE - SEE EVENTS BY TYPE IT IS UP TO DATE FOR THE CURRENT MONTH & YEAR
It is taking more time then I have to update both "by type" & "by month" This page is going to show the event in the month with reference to Category & Town listing to refer to on the "BY TYPE" page. Event month may change each year if at the 1st or end of the listed month. Events usually listed on Catagory Page first, later added to this page if time permits. See also Catagory Page - Events may or may not be listed on both pages. Open Houses, Organization Programs, Book Sales, and Community/Business Expos are listed on CATORGORY PAGE ONLY
Portage County events are listed first with no county designation. Cities outside of Portage Co unty have the county listed. Other pages for the event, organization or city is in: ( ).
SOME OF THE EVENT DATES ARE FROM SECONDARY SOURCES-ACCURACURRY IS STRIVED FOR BUT NOT GURANTEED. When traveling to an event, please verify the information. A few years ago in Southwest Ohio we saw a poster in Octorber about the lighted parade in December-the time was 7 pm. When I called for more information in December, I found out the time of the parade was changed to 5 pm.
