Halloween is coming !!!
The city together with the Public Library, YMCA and other participating businesses can offer a day of fun for families. Families and children who come to downtown Avon during this day can be encouraged to dress up in their Halloween costumes for trick-or-treating at participating businesses.
The Public Library can invite families to stop by during trick-or-treat hours to take part in craft activities. The city can offer families free pumpkins, hot chocolate and hot cider and treats during trick-or-treat hours, while supplies last. The YMCA can offer hayrack rides to families, and can host a haunted house, food, games, and crafts. Participating businesses can offer trick-or-treat for kids.

Many communities have made pickle ball courts and community sign up. If tennis courts are going to be added, could the courts also be marked for pickle ball players also.

Have a spring clean-up day to pick up litter around Avon. Make it an initiative somehow for people to all chip in and pick up trash around Avon. I noticed when I go for walks there is a lot of trash along Jaycox and Lear in empty lots and beside sidewalks . I tried to clean up along Schwartz myself but there is a lot of litter and is sad to see our city have trash flying around. It's looking like a third world country.

Traveling on vacation we saw many buildings with murals. It would be awesome if the walls of the computer software building next to Avon Dairy Treat could get painted with a colorful mural showing the history of Avon - or anything brightly colored to improve the view instead of the blank, dark walls. The French Creek development group could have a contest where artists submit their proposal for the design and the residents could vote on it. The winner could then paint the walls and get the publicity for it while the city gets beautified

Have you considered the fact that many of today's youth misinterpret police behavior/duty to protect and serve or maybe their just curious of the world of "Cops and Robbers." There are many reasons why the youth in our community would benefit from such programs. Thus because, the media and social networks such as Facebook l, twitter and or Instagram (which is of a popular usage among many adolescents) destroy the image of many officers.
Message to Police Authority:
*You'll be excited to learn that many of our Children would like to be just like you. They need guidance, why not start from here? *
Potential club details:
-Small monthly fee
-Youth police badges (plastic)
-Youth uniform (t-shirts and khaki's)
-Meetings held 1x or 2x monthly
-Community service events

Recently I went on vacation and took full advantage of public hammocks by the beach. (Surprisingly, yes they were clean and spider free) I know we have seasons here so maybe they can be removed before the winter. But it would be so nice to swing in one and listen to music or read a book. It would be much better than benches we have. All you would need is a big wooden canopy to tie them to.

As a family with young children we love the lake county farm park. The problem is that it's an hour away. I think developing a similar project for the west side of Cleveland would be a great way to safely interact with animals, bring in tourism and yet still maintain a nature space while providing income to the city. The open land off Jaycox comes to mind as an wailt accessible location. Paths, farm animals, nature activities, rib fest, summer concerts, festivals, etc! We don't really have a community place for bug events and gatherings like that :)

The Canning Family K-9 Park in Avon's Veterans Park is amazing. We are so lucky to have this amazing dog park. It's separated into a big dog section and a little dog section and beautifully maintained. My wife and I take our dog, George, to the park almost daily and we have met people and dogs from all over Avon and every town for a 30 mile radius.
Could we please have a website with a calendar and timeslots. I'd love to be able to mark on the calendar when our dog will be visiting. For example George will be at the park Monday from 5-6pm. We could then see what other dogs will be at the park at the same time. We've formed amazing friendships with dogs and their owners and we'd love to see at a glance the best time to meet up.
If you wanted to host it on the cityofavon.com website - you could have users login and post a pic of their dog. Then we'd be able to see a picture of their dog and when they'll be at the dog park. It's the best dog park in NE Ohio. Let's make it even better.
