Beaver Park Opening – May 29, 1923


Here’s another page of the Lorain Times-Herald with ads announcing Decoration Day resort openings. The partial page is from the May 29, 1923 edition and highlights Beaver Park, “Lorain County’s Summer Resort."

Of interest to movie buffs is a Pantheon Theatre ad for comedian Harold Lloyd in Safety Last.

You’ll also find ads for Ruggles Beach, Riverview Park in Elyria, the Hagenbeck-Wallace Circus and Vermilion Restaurant, with M. Okage [sic] listed as proprietor. (Okagi Restaurant was a fixture on the Vermilion restaurant scene for decades.

Here is the obituary for Mamaru Okagi from the Sandusky Register of December 27, 1956.
