  • Bug Day!

Presented by Ken Ganley Subaru Wickliffe, Ken Ganley Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram Mentor, Sylvan Learning of Mentor & University School

Join us for our annual celebration of all things buggy! Live bugs, games, activities, and crafts at this FREE event.

Bug Day 2025 will highlight the extraordinary survival strategies insects use to hide in plain sight. Bugs of all shapes, sizes and colors surround us every day and sometimes we must look closely to spot them! 

No registration required. Miniature steam train rides will be offered, courtesy of the Lake Shore Live Steamers from 1 to 3 pm weather permitting. Note: For safety reasons, pregnant women are not permitted to ride the trains. All children must be able to sit in their own designated seat; lap sitting is not permitted.
