The Fire Inside: The Story and Poetry of Nikki Giovanni
Cleveland Public Library will host the debut stage reading of the Karamu House production of “The Fire Inside: The Story and Poetry of Nikki Giovanni,” on Saturday, February 17 at 3:00 p.m. in the Louis Stokes Wing Auditorium, the Main Library, 325 Superior Avenue. This is FREE and open to the public.
GRAB A SLED!! (Brrrrrr) Though I personally find no fun in being cold, possibly wet and tumbling down a hill, my daughter absolutely loves to snowboard and sled. So in her honor- check it out!
Edgewater Park in Cuyahoga County is public property, with a 65 degree slope that is easily accesible. Directions: The sled riding hill is at Edgewater Park right off the shoreway.
Comments: The slope from Upper Edgewater down to the beach at Lower Edgewater is a hair-raiser. Not recommended for small children--hang-gliders launch themselves into the air from this slope. Parking is available in many of the parks lots. Gets busy sometimes, but is great fun. Big hill is steep and there is a smaller one with the large hill for the kids. My daughter wants to go every year and assures me I can just "sit in the car" while she rides. *sigh*
