Toledo LRHA
Thursday, June 4, 2026 (2:00 PM - 4:00 PM) (EDT)
Description
The Toledo Local Restaurant & Hospitality Alliance (LRHA) at Tony Packo’s in Sylvania connects local hospitality owners with the leaders and decision-makers shaping both your community and your business.
As the Toledo area continues to evolve, ORHA is committed to supporting operators like you as they grow alongside the city. From major developments like the The Glass City Riverwalk, ongoing construction impacts like the Maumee bridge closure, and broader economic initiatives, we’re here to keep you informed and connected through our network.
Through structured discussion and open dialogue, attendees will gain insight into what’s happening locally, ask questions directly to decision makers, and leave with a clearer understanding of how these changes translate into day-to-day operational impacts.
