Heritage Day 2024

Spirits of Copley

Join the Copley Community Chamber of Commerce as they honor Jim Borchik, Copley-Fairlawn School Board President and this year’s recipient of the Paul Janos Community Impact Award, during the 3rd Annual Spirits of Copley. This special Heritage Days event is the Chamber’s way of saying thank you to the dedicated employees, volunteers, and residents who have made a difference in our community.

The event begins at 7:00 PM with live music by the Ben Gage Band, along with the spirits of Brighten Brewing Company and The Winery at Wolf Creek. Following a brief intermission for the award presentation, the band will continue performing until 9:30 PM.

Gather with family, friends, and neighbors for an evening of music, spirits, and the celebration of those who help make Copley a place we’re proud to call home!
