Spring is officially here! My allergies have activated, so I know the season is settling in. What are some of your favorite springtime activities? For me, it’s enjoying the longer days and making my way back outside to different parks around the city. As we prepare to march into April, let’s see what events we have this week to wrap up the month.

Senior & Caregivers Expo 2025

DAR Public Relations Inc., will host the Seniors & Caregivers Expo on Friday, March 28, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. This expo will include senior-focused vendors and info on  housing, Medicaid and more. Attendees will receive a swag bag and have a chance to enter a raffle. 

BJ Brown, director of health and wellness at the Thea Bowman Center, is one of the lead organizers for the event.

“We are in our fourth or fifth year now, the seniors absolutely love it,” Brown said. “A lot of people need help but don’t know where to go or who to call. Having the ability to have resources and people they can talk to face to face is something they really enjoy. We will keep doing it until they get tired of it.”

The expo will take place at the Thea Bowman Center, located at 11901 Oakland Ave. Registration is encouraged, but not required. To register or for more information, click here.

Shoot your shot, 3 point contest

The UH Cutler Center for Men will be host a 3-point shooting contest on Saturday, March 29, from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m. This is a knock-out style shooting contest, there will only be one champion.

Community Outreach Coordinator for the UH Culter Center for Men, Brady Payne, says one of the main reasons the event was created was to promote health and wellness.

“We are hoping to bring a lot of people out, particularly young men ages 18-40,” Payne said. “When you turn 26, you drop off your parent’s insurance so it’s important to be having these conversations about fitness and taking care of your body with young people.”

Everyone can take part in a free workout by T3 Performance health resources by UH Cutler Center for men. Athletic clothes are suggested, and you must wear tennis shoes to participate (no boots allowed). The contest is open to men and women of all ages and will take place at UH Drusinsky Sports Medicine Institute Laboratory Services, located at 3999 Richmond Rd., 1st floor.

Community Reporter (he/him)
I work to gain the trust of Cleveland residents through direct community engagement and storytelling. My goal is to amplify and celebrate the residents and stakeholders who contribute to the success of city neighborhoods. I’m hoping to erase the negative stigma that has been cast on some neighborhoods throughout the years.
