Celebrating Tremont’s rich ethnic and cultural diversity and its vibrant arts and entertainment scene, the Festival has become an annual tradition for thousands of Greater Clevelanders. The Festival is presented by Merrick House and co-presented by Tremont West Development Corporation and Cleveland Ward 3 Councilman Joe Cimperman, and is made possible with the generous support of many sponsors and volunteers.
Paul Duda, Tremont home and business owner who has lived in Tremont for 15 years, posted a (buddybid) Facebook charity auction last night in support of Cameras for Tremont, a grassroots neighborhood safety campaign. “This is an auction to raise funds for the cameras in Tremont,” Duda said in a Facebook post. He added, “The entire final auction price will be donated to the fund.”
The auction item, “Guardian Heads – No Reserve,” is accepting bids through the auction close, Monday Sep 21st, 10:00 p.m., EDT.
On April 18th, two men were mugged on W. 11th Street. Since then, Tremonsters have seen a rash of carjackings and robberies that have kept friends and customers from visiting our neighborhood and have made some longtime residents consider a move. Cleveland Police have stepped up their efforts, and our city council representatives and Tremont West Development Corporation have convened well-attended meetings to address community concerns.
These efforts have paid off, with the apprehension of criminals who have been targeting Tremont and the re-dedication of our tight-knit community to keeping our neighborhood safe. Continue reading

Today I found myself atop what was oddly a very tall hill in an otherwise pretty flat part of Oklahoma. I was in Tulsa, and I rode the Turkey Mountain trail network up and down and back and forth and somehow gained 800 feet to be straddling my bike and gazing down a straight chute of rock and scree and wondering just how I was supposed to ride back down the sketchiest stretch of downhill I have ever attempted.

On August 7, 2015, the Cleveland Planning Commission will meet in City Hall, Room 514, at 9:00 AM to consider Knez Builder’s proposal. I urge my fellow residents to attend this meeting and have their voices heard.
As Cleveland’s revitalization gains momentum, wonderful things are happening. More residents live in downtown and new retail shops and world class restaurants abound. Long past are the days when Cleveland was known simply as the mistake on the lake.
One of the reasons that my husband and I love Cleveland is that every neighborhood is unique. Who can’t fall in love with the artsy vibes of Waterloo and the Detroit-shore way and the bustling night life in Ohio City? That neighborhood feel is exactly why we chose to move to the distinct pocket of Tremont known as Duck Island. We have a beautiful mix of neighbors who are committed to our “little neck of the woods.” With mainly older homes, with nice yards, Duck Island is a neighborhood where everyone looks out for each other, says hello and asks how you are doing. In the busy world of today, that is difficult to find. Continue reading
