To celebrate the beginning of the summer season, the inaugural Crocker Park Block Party presented by Serpentini of Westlake, Lucky Shoes, Next Level Therapy, Aqua-Tots, Cedar Point, and Sherwin Williams takes place on Sunday, June 13!
The event includes a morning to run with the dogs at the Crocker Bark 5K & 1-Mile Walk presented by Lucky Shoes and follows with a free party throughout the streets of Crocker Park. The lifestyle center is partnering with several groups and departments from the City of Westlake to offer a personal safety theme complete with activities, games, exhibits, demos, and more.
Kicking off the daylong event, in partnership with Hermes Sports & Events, the Crocker Bark 5K & 1-Mile walk will begin at 9:30am at Crocker Park’s event venue, Market Square, and take runners and walkers on a scenic route through Westlake.
