What summer is complete without a full list of music, art, fun, food and sun? Well this year there are plenty of things planned for everyone and they are definitely going to keep you and your family busy. From weekly musical performances in the gorgeous gardens of the Holden Arboretum, to an exciting Mardi Gras festival complete with an Independence Day parade and so much more – it’s endless fun! There is also a chance to jog for charity, enjoy an art festival in the charming backdrop of historic Downtown Willoughby and involve the whole family in a host of activities at the Vintage Ohio festival. If you see any of us from the Michael Kaim Team at these events, please be sure to say hello.
