Sparx City Hop Passport Program:
This year, City Hop introduces a free new promotion, the Sparx City Hop Passport. The passport has two uses: it acts as a trolley pass for participants in this year's City Hop and it will list over 60 special offers at participating City Hop locations. Not only can passport holders take advantage of these specials during City Hop, but they can enjoy these same specials throughout the year. Beginning on Saturday, September 11th and lasting until August 31st, 2011, all promotions in the passport will be available to passport holders. The passport is free, but will only be distributed in two ways: look for it in the September issue of Cleveland Magazine or get your passport at City Hop at one of the designated trolley stops. Visit www.downtowncleveland.com/sparx to learn more about the passport and where to pick up it up.
Sparx City Hop is presented by Downtown Cleveland Alliance and is made possible through the collaboration of its Down and Aroundtown partners which includes: Historic Gateway Neighborhood, Historic Warehouse District, PlayhouseSquare District Development Corp. The Campus District, St. Clair Superior Development, AsiaTown, MidTown, Tremont West Development, Ohio City Near West Development and Flats Oxbow.
