Writing that title recalls the infamous Glenville shoot out of 1968, an event that may have changed Cleveland more than the Hough riots. That's a subject for a different day.
Today I want to correct an omission that could have fit an earlier post regarding this weekend's events and alert readers to the Glenville neighborhood festival taking place today. Following the noon parade from Superior Avenue and East 105 Street, the festival's fulcrum will be at the intersection of St. Clair Avenue and East 88 Street.
Over 10,000 people shared in last year's festival. For more information, visit the festival website here.
In what is either astute planning or serendipity, this is also the 50th high school reunion of the Glenville High School class of 1963. Tonight's reunion banquet is taking place at Highland Golf Course near Chagrin Blvd. and Green Road in Beachwood.
