Yes, it was 50 years ago on June 22 that Cleveland earned its Mistake on the Lake reputation, as a Time Magazine photographer captured the Cuyahoga River on fire.

Today, the river and its connected Lake Erie are clean enough to draw swimmers, fishermen, kayakers, canoeists and other water enthusiasts. Follow Rock The Lake to engage in redemptive activities that further your appreciation for our restored waterways.
