The Geauga County Department on Aging celebrated its annual Senior Day on June 11 with a vibrant and memorable trip to Cleveland that brought together 200 of the county’s senior citizens for a day filled with discovery, entertainment and community.
Organized by the department’s recreation and education staff, Senior Day featured a fully coordinated motor coach tour of Cleveland, beginning with a visit to the International Women’s Air & Space Museum, where participants were welcomed and prepared for a two-hour guided city tour.
In collaboration with Discover My Cleveland, seniors explored many of the city’s historic and cultural landmarks, including Public Square, Downtown Cleveland, University Circle, Euclid Avenue’s iconic Millionaires’ Row, the Flats and the Tremont neighborhood. The tour offered a unique glimpse into the rich history and revitalized energy of the city.
The group then enjoyed lunch and live entertainment at the Music Box Supper Club, a beloved local venue overlooking the Cuyahoga River. Musical entertainment was provided by The Sunrise Jones, whose lively performance of pop and rock favorites from the 1960s and ‘70s had guests singing and dancing along.
Transportation for the event was generously sponsored by Ohman Family Living, whose support helped ensure safe and comfortable travel for all participants.
“This day is all about honoring and celebrating the incredible seniors in our community,” said Jessica Boalt, director of the Geauga County Department on Aging. “We are proud to offer enriching opportunities like this that support active aging and social engagement.”
