HIKE Beartown Lake. EAT?  POLKA? Celebrate Obzinsky! Bainbridge

Details

We will start with an easy hike on nearly all the trails at Beartown. Expect ~2-1/2 miles of mostly flat, wooded terrain. This is merely a pretext for an optional lunch at...

The MAIN event! Drive to the adjacent Taborville where the 91st annual Obzinsky (Harvest Fest) will take place celebrating Czech heritage. Food is available 11-5, expect pork dumplings & sauerkraut dinners as well as goulash, tripe soup, Czech beer and more. Bands will play "inside and out all day". Expect a lot of polkas and waltzes. Parade at 2 (a very small one). Taborville is ~1/2 mile from the park, you will drive by it on the way to Beartown. No outside food or drink is allowed, though I think you can get away with a water bottle. Bring a folding chair. There is a $5 per person admission.

Taborville was established in 1925 as a summer gymnastics camp and residential village by Cleveland's Czech community. DTJ Taborville

Quinn Road ends at the entrance to Beartown, can't miss it.
