Dear ,

Happy Fall! Today is officially the start of the autumn season, and we are excited that things are, for the most part, back to normal. With that said, Northeast Ohio has plenty to do this season and there is no better time for returning to the activities and events that we missed last year. Cleveland has all sorts of events to enjoy this year including sports, theatre, and fall festivals. Enjoy this season by reconnecting with those you've missed and drinking as many pumpkin spice lattes and bubble teas as possible.


From all of us at Bay Corporation, we hope this fall season brings plenty of family time, good weather, and memories to last a lifetime.

The Guardians
The Indians will have a new name for their 2022 season! They will be called the Guardians after a work of public art called the Guardians of Traffic. There are eight statues on both sides of the Hope Memorial Bridge which was renamed in 1983 after William Henry "Harry" Hope, a stonemason who helped build the sculptures. The statues have been there since 1932 and were designed by sculptor Henry Hering and architect Frank Walker. Clevelanders are very excited about the new name and its connection to our city's history.
Theatre Returns
The Keybank Broadway Series is returning to Playhouse Square on November 2nd. The first show in the Broadway Series will be The Prom, a heartfelt musical comedy about Broadway stars on a mission to change the world. The Prom features direction and choreography by Tony Award winner Casey Nicholaw (Mean Girls, The Book of Mormon), a book by Tony Award winner Bob Martin (The Drowsy Chaperone) and Tony Award nominee Chad Beguelin (Aladdin), music by Tony Award nominee Matthew Sklar (Elf) and lyrics by Tony Award nominee Chad Beguelin. Playhouse Square is implementing mask and vaccination mandates for all audience members to keep our community safe.
Haunted Houses
Haunted houses are an autumn staple in Cleveland. Thankfully, there are plenty to choose from this year. Haunted houses are returning to Cedar Points' Halloweekends in 2021, which is very exciting. However, there are also plenty of local options. Our favorite is Bloodview Haunted House in Broadview Heights. Bloodview is Cuyahoga County's only charity haunted house, raising nearly $3 million for local and national causes.
Fall Festivals
Cleveland has a variety of fall festivals this year. One of our favorites is Pumpkin Village at Mapleside Farms. Open weekends until the end of October, this festival is a fun activity for people of all ages. They have a different theme every weekend, live entertainment, and one of the largest corn mazes in the midwest. Other festivals include the Pumpkin Festival at Red Wagon Farm and the Family Fun Fest at Schuster's Pumpkin Patch.
This autumn,
Bay Corporation challenges you to take the extra step to lessen your carbon footprint. This year try and do these tips.
  • Compost your leaves.
  • Swap disposable cups for a reusable mug.

Your Guide to Autumn Health
Want to stay healthy and safe this fall? You should try implementing some of the following tips into your routine.
  1. Get your Flu shot and yearly checkup.
  2. Moisturize, moisturize, moisturize! It is the best way to prevent dry skin.
  3. Continue to wear sunscreen. The ray's of the sun continue to be harsh throughout the fall. Sunscreen will protect your skin from sun damage.
  4. Prepare your home for extreme weather conditions. Make sure you have flashlights, a snow shovel/blower, and that your heating system is working properly.
  5. Finally, stay active! It is important to keep your body moving during the winter months.

Quick Facts: I have a beautiful daughter named Olivia, who will be turning 5 in October. I love to take her out on hikes and take her to events. I recently took her to Memphis Kiddie Park, which was a lot of fun.

What are three things you have a passion for?
  1. Family/Daughter
  2. The work I do
  3. Playing Guitar

You have to give up one food forever and only eat one forever. What would they be?
I'd give up guac or avocado because it is disgusting. I could eat tuna casserole forever. I'm a weirdo and I put mayonnaise in it but it was a family tradition that my mom made growing up. It is my ultimate comfort food.

What are your proudest accomplishments professionally and personally?
Professionally, my proudest accomplishment is graduating from EMT school, I love helping people. Personally, being a dad is the greatest thing in my life. You don't really understand what it's like until you have a kid.

What are your favorite things about Cleveland/Northeast Ohio?
I love how passionate we are about our sports teams and the change of seasons.
