Anyone selling or giving away dorm/apartment stuff they no longer need? I’m specifically looking for a shoe rack, shelves, storage/organization stuff, cleaning supplies, trash cans, etc. Basically anything useful for an apartment.

Ravenna

Hey everyone sorry this is a little outside of Cleveland but just curious if anyone has any thoughts on Ravenna. I’m looking at a house out there and have lived in Cleveland my whole life so I’m not super familiar with the area. For reference this would be Ravenna township not the actual city. Any help is appreciated thanks.

Homeless in a car with my dog.

Started a new a job, rather not say where but really don't have anywhere to sleep at night. Once I get my first paycheck housing should not be any issue. I just don't know where to go with my partner and dog as I know they can't hang out in my car during my 8-10 hour shifts for the next 2 possibly 3 weeks.

Any help or suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Places to run

Hello! I’m trying to get into shape and want to start running again. Besides down town, campus, and the hike and bike, are there any places that anyone recommends? Any places to avoid?

Fun fitness places for a beginner?

Hello! I'm trying to exercise more, but I hate it.

I'm looking for some kind of fun fitness class in the area that could get me moving that i wouldn't dread. Maybe some kind of martial arts, so i can pretend to be in fantasy story or video game? Or those bungee cord things I've seen? Maybe pole dancing? I have no idea what's available around here or what to search for!

I'm a 46 year old woman and I've been fat most of my life. I have no real coordination or athletic skill so nothing that is serious. I don't want to bring down the group!

Is there a safe place to park and sleep in a vehicle for a week or so, and any way to take cheap showers?

Hello! I got a job in the Kent area starting next week. I have about 500 bucks to my name, most of which is going to go towards driving up to Ohio from across the country. This is more or less my single lifeline, so I'm gonna do what I have to.

I need a safe place to sleep in my small truck for about a week or two until my first paycheck drops and I need a place to take showers for the same. I don't have money to pay cancellation fees or a gym membership once I get my own place unfortunately and I can't find any cheap month to month gyms.

Anyone have any suggestions?

Good industrial setting for pics

Hey there. I'm trying to get some ideas for good industrial settings in Kent for my kiddo and her friends' senior pictures. Hopefully with a good metal staircase. Preferably publicly available since I don't feel like urban exploring with 3 teens

Places to volunteer

Anyone off grid in Kent, OH

What are the laws for going off grid in Kent, Ohio? Are solar panels permitted? Is it required to connect them to the electrical grid, or can you use them with a house battery or generator alone? Has anyone successfully pulled this off in Kent?

I live in a mobile home in Kent and am trying to figure out a way to keep my A/Cs, heaters, and refrigerator powered without these expensive utilities. I had to turn them off am struggling to keep us cool. Thought I’d get some hope from people who’ve done it here in Kent if it’s actually possible.

(Note: I know you’re going to want to suggest organizations that can help offset utilities costs in Kent and Portage County, but I know both those and am truly looking for examples of how people have gotten off of electric and gas altogether. Thanks for understanding.)
