Ev-fur-lasting Love Pet Photo Contest
Held each year during the month of February, the contest is held in partnership with chamber member and Berea based nonprofit, W.A.G.S. 4 Kids. Members of the community can submit a photo of their pet between February 1-14 and then voting is held from February 15-28. Each vote costs $1 with all funds raised going to support W.A.G.S. 4 Kids in their mission to provide mobility and autism service dogs for children throughout northeast and central Ohio.
Thank you for helping us raise $3,245 for W.A.G.S. 4 Kids in 2023!!

August
Community Garage Sale
The Berea Community Garage Sale is held in August each year. It will be held August 17-19, 2023. In 2022, we had 65+ homes signed up to participate. Registration to have your home added to the list of participating sales opens in early July each year. Cost is $10 to have your home added to the sale, and all funds collected go toward marketing the sale via local newspapers, cleveland.com, and through Facebook marketing.
Members of the community can spend the day treasure hunting and can take a break to stop by one of our amazing Berea restaurants for breakfast, lunch or a coffee!
The Thursday before the sale, the chamber will publish a live map where shoppers can easily navigate to each address as well as a downloadable sale list with addresses and a description of what is available at each sale.
Thank you to our 2022 Community Garage Sale Presenting Sponsors!
