Hike. Golf. Swim. Eat. Here are some picks for Father’s Day for fun.

Father’s Day is Sunday.

Now is the time to honor fatherhood and fatherly ties – dads, grandfathers, uncles and father figures – and show these men how much we love and cherish them.

And we can safely celebrate as if we are in 2019.

Enjoy the outdoors:

• SEE A WATERFALL. The 18-meter Brandywine Falls in Cuyahoga Valley National Park in Summit County is a 40-minute drive from the Canton area. There is an observation deck and hiking trails nearby.
• TO PLAY GOLF. There are over 20 public golf courses, including Skyland Pines and The Quarry, in the Stark County area. The Clearview golf course near East Canton and The Legends of Massillon are other places.
• PLAY Minigolf. Rolling Greens Mini Golf in Lake Township is one of the many mini golf courses in the area. Another is the Sluggers & Putters amusement park at Canal Fulton.
• PEACH. The Stark County area has several great spots – Walborn, Deer Creek Reservoir, Sippo Lake, and Wingfoot Lake State Park – to kick back, relax, and fish with dad.
• CANO OR KAYAK. Sippo Lake Marina, Trailhead Canoe Livery, Walborn Reservoir Marina and Canal Fulton Canoe Livery offer canoe and kayak rentals for leisurely paddling on a stream or lake. Check availability.
