Bring your family and friends to enjoy your favorite summer pursuits like live music, fishing, kayaking, pedal boat rides, up-close wildlife encounters, and activities with the Stark County District Library.

This drop-in event takes place at two entrances to Sippo Lake Park (East Entrance off Perry Drive, 5300 Tyner St. Canton, OH 44708) or (West Entrance 800 Genoa Ave. Massillon, OH 44646)  Due to a bridge fire, the two sides of the lake do not connect using the Sippo Lake Trail at the current time.  By car, it is a 5 minute drive between the two entrances.

No pre-registration required for the event.  We recommend bringing: sunscreen, sunglasses, hat, insect repellant, water, cash for snacks, and comfy shoes!  Pro Tip: Buy a dry bag from the marina or bring a waterproof bag for keys, phones, and wallets while on the water.
