If you need boarding or daycare for your dog while you participate in the IRONMAN 70.3 Ohio in City of Sandusky we’ve got spaces available! 🦮 The running course goes right down our road! 🏃🏻♀️🚴 🏊
It's hard to believe IRONMAN 70.3 Ohio is just over a week away! Next Sunday, July 23, we're excited to welcome more than 1,000 athletes, along with their friends and families, to Sandusky and the Shores & Islands Ohio area.
As we prepare for this great event, we want to make sure everyone is aware of the road closures that will be in effect for the race. People with properties along the course whose streets will be closed were mailed a traffic impact guide detailing the street closures. That guide is available at www.CityofSandusky.com/IRONMAN
The following lots/streets will close to vehicles in advance of the event this coming week (these areas will remain open to pedestrians for the entirety of the week):
1️⃣ Shelby Street Boat Launch Overflow Lot – Monday, July 17
2️⃣ Jackson Street Pier – Wednesday, July 19
3️⃣ Paper District Marina Lot – Thursday, July 20
4️⃣ 100 Blocks of Columbus Ave. & E. Water St. – Friday, July 21
