    No need to fly the flying saucer over to Cleveland Metroparks
    "Summer Beach Party" - just come to the beach for all the
    fun and excitement.

     

    Cleveland Metroparks invites all "beach bums" to enjoy
    the free "Summer Beach Party" event on Saturday, August 7
    from 5 to 11 p.m. at Huntington Beach in Huntington Reservation in
    Bay Village. 

     

    Beach-goers from 5 to 8 p.m. can enjoy a variety of beach games and
    activities including: a UFO sighting scavenger hunt, shake-n-bake
    contest, flying saucer water balloon toss, Reese's Pieces relay
    race, hula hoop contest, beach blanket bingo, limbo,
    "Ranger" says, cornhole, beach volleyball, and
    more. 

     

    Day-of registration is required to participate in all games, and
    space is limited.  Prizes will be awarded.

     

    Activities from 5 to 8 p.m. also include: national award-winning
    sand sculptor Carl Jara designing a special sand sculpture
    especially for the "Summer Beach Party" event, a sand
    castle-building area for visitors to try their hand, Island Jeff's
    Steel Drum Show, a fishing demonstration area with Cleveland
    Metroparks staff, a kayak demonstration area with 41� North Coastal
    Kayak Adventures, live animals from Lake Erie Nature & Science
    Center, a dive team exhibit with Cleveland Metroparks Rangers, and
    more! 

     

    As darkness approaches, warm up at the campfire and enjoy the
    ever-entertaining Musical Mark at 8 p.m.

     

    And then, be sure to bring beach blankets and beach chairs for the
    movie on the beach - "E.T." at 8:45 p.m.

     

    The 1982 movie classic "E.T." - a group of aliens visit
    Earth and one of them is accidentally left behind, and is found by
    a 10-year-old boy, Elliot.  Soon the two begin to communicate,
    and start a different kind of friendship in which E.T. learns about
    some new values of the true meaning of friendship.

     

    Huntington Beach is located off Lake Road in Huntington
    Reservation, between Crocker-Bassett and Columbia roads in Bay
    Village - north of the I-90/Columbia Road
    exit.       

     

    For more information, call 216-635-3200 or visit
    clevelandmetroparks.com.

     

    Enjoy an evening of fun on the sand at the "Summer Beach
    Party" of Cleveland Metroparks - part of your life,
    naturally.
