Northeast Ohio 2018 fish fry guide: Don't forget to submit your listing!

CLEVELAND, Ohio - Are you organizing a nonprofit fish fry this Lent season? Make sure you let us know all the details so we can include it in our annual guide!

This year, the Lenten season runs from Feb. 14 (Ash Wednesday) until March 30 (Good Friday).

We'll launch the 2018 Northeast Ohio Fish Fry Guide on Ash Wednesday, then post updates every Friday throughout Lent. The guide does not include restaurants and taverns, just fish-fry events hosted by nonprofit organizations like churches, schools and civic groups.

If you organize or know of a nonprofit fish fry that should be included in our guide, we want to know. Submissions must be received by our deadline at 5 p.m., Feb. 9.

Here's how to submit a fish-fry listing:

1. Go to our online calendar entry form at cleveland.com/myevent.

2. Title your event "fish fry," and select the category "Fish Fry" just below.

3. Select the location of the event by typing a few words of the name and choosing the right location from the list that appears.*

4. Fill in the dates and times in the date space. ("Fridays from Feb. 16 to March 30 from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m.") works, for example. For just one date (say, a single night's event), omit the weekday. Click to one side of the date box to make sure the computer understood and the date you entered is correct.)

5. In the description, put the name of your organization as the sponsor and describe the basic meal. (For example: Two deep-fried or baked pieces of cod or 10 shrimp; coleslaw or applesauce; one side dish; bread and butter; coffee or tea.)

You can add up to 15 additional words describing other dishes and/or services available. (For example: Homemade desserts; baked tilapia; pierogi dinners; kid's menu: cheese pizza, toasted cheese; take-outs available.)
Enter the price for a basic meal in the Price space (For example: $8.50; $7.25, seniors and children 4-10; free, children 3 and under.)
Enter a telephone number (including area code and extension, for publication) that people can call with questions. You can throw in the URL of your website if you use one.

6. Provide the name of the contact person and day and evening telephone numbers to confirm or obtain information. (This contact information will not be published.)

Once you fill out the form, your event will go online at cleveland.com/events. Submissions must be received by our deadline at 5 p.m., Feb. 9.

We reserve the right to edit or omit items.

*What if you can't find your location in the list of venues? Try several forms of the name first. There are thousands of locations already in the database, but a few new ones come up every year. To let us know about a place we don't have on file, please email entertainment@cleveland.com and provide the location's name, its address including street number, street, city and ZIP code and a phone number for the place that would be good for any event, such as the office number of a church.

If you need to make a correction later, email entertainment@cleveland.com.
