We want to thank everyone who attended Boomer Bash West April 28 at Crocker Park’s Market Square in Westlake. Nearly 400 attendees had lots of fun walking the red carpet, glamming it up in the photo booth, singing along with Rick & Sharona, schmoozing with “Marilyn” and catching up with old friends and meeting new ones.
We are happy to announce that we were able to provide a $500 donation to nonprofit organization Simply Virtual based on raffle ticket proceeds. Congratulations also go to our grand prize raffle winner (Peaches from Cleveland) who took home a carload of valuable gifts donated by our sponsors.
Our Boomer Bash Goes Hollywood was co-sponsored by The Normandy Senior Living. We’re grateful to everyone who visited with our Boomer editors and staff, guest

authors and Boomer pop culture columnist Mike Olszewski and his writing partner and wife Janice Olszewski. We enjoyed meeting everyone and listening to your story ideas. We value your comments and hope everyone had a great time.
We’re also grateful to our seven silver sponsors for partnering with Northeast Ohio Boomer to provide our readership a high-energy, entertaining, informative networking event that brought them in face-to-face contact with the products and services in the region they value the most for Better Living After 50.
