Since 1979, the Oktoberfest in Cuyahoga Falls has raised well over a million dollars which has been donated back into this wonderful community in a variety of ways. We would like to share with you where our contributions have gone. First and foremost, we have donated thousands of dollars to assist students in continuing their education by granting college scholarships every year to as many as 6-8
deserving students from Cuyahoga Falls High School and Woodridge High School. Proceeds from our annual Reverse Raffle each winter go towards our Bob Cochran Memorial Oktoberfest Scholarship Fund. We wish this year's recipients of the Bob Cochran Memorial Oktoberfest Scholarship the best of luck in their future endeavors! Our committee also takes great pride in supporting the fight against cancer by actively supporting and donating to the Falls Cancer Club. The Falls Cancer Club is a privately funded organization in Cuyahoga Falls that helps cancer patients who may otherwise not have the financial support to keep up their battle with this terrible disease. Proceeds from our annual Dick Holle Oktoberfest Golf Outing each August go towards our annual donation to The Falls Cancer Club. Get in touch with a Committee Member to sign up a team of golfers today! The Falls Cancer Club is just one of the many organizations that we have donated to and continually support. Pick up a FREE program at our Festival for the full listing of past and present organizations and causes that we have proudly supported! Over the years, this city has gone out of its way to create memorials and parks to create lasting memories and to provide a history of this city for its residents. This is done through general donations from the community and other organizations like ours. We are proud to have also been able to donate to just about all of them, including but not limited to, the Rain Garden on Sixth Street, The Indian Monument on Front Street, the Doodle Bug Memorial, Layborne Complex at Bolich Middle School, the Clock Tower and Interactive Fountain downtown and the Police Memorial. We would like to take a moment to thank the community of Cuyahoga Falls for your continued support of this festival and our other events throughout the years! It takes countless hours/days/weeks/months of preparation and dedication but we are determined to plan the best events we possibly can each year! We thank you for your support! Sincerely,
The Cuyahoga Falls Oktoberfest Committee
