We're bringing back Summit Lake Float! 

Presented by the Ohio & Erie Canalway Coalition and Summit Metro Parks, the new annual event Summit Lake Float welcomes community members to experience Summit Lake through water recreation, including kayaking, canoeing and pontoon boat rides! But what's a summer float without a sweet treat? Root beer floats will be served at the event, while supplies last!
