Thank you to Cheryl Hardy and the Party in the Park Toledo team for helping us close the books on in front of thousands of our neighbors. TECHLEDO technically started, officially, back when Dennis Cox played the PiP main stage during Watershed Weekend. So it was amazingly fitting to finish things up right where we started. That’s $15,000.00 on that check to Dean Davis and the River Gallery Foundation! And we couldn’t have done it without all of you.

Thank you, Toledo! And we can’t wait to see y’all again next year at The Ribbon for .🪩❤️

The lights have gone down and the music has faded. But we’re not done with just yet!

Please join at Party In The Park this evening around 7:15 where we’ll be presenting our donation check to Dean Davis and the River Gallery Foundation on the main stage.

We said from the start that we didn’t just want to throw a party. We wanted to make an impact on the city we all love. And tonight y’all will see the power of what we can all do together. Thank you to everyone who supported our mission and we can’t wait to show y’all the mind boggling number on that check.

Unity. Love. Music. That’s what TECHLEDO is all about.

In June, TECHLEDO drew thousands from Toledo and beyond to dance the night away and raise money for a great cause. BRANDit owner, Darlene, and husband, Dennis, are the founders of this amazing event and the BRANDit team was proud to serve in the merch tent. This event raised over $25,000 and 10% of the total food and beverage sales from The Garden by Poco Piatti went to Metroparks Toledo! 🥳🥳🥳

What remains after costs will be put into a large check and donated to Dean Davis’ River Gallery Foundation this Friday, July 10, at 7:20pm as a part of this week’s Party In The Park. 💜🎧

It was a true honor for to be a featured event of Metroparks Toledo’s Watershed Weekend a few Saturdays ago. Tens of thousands of people explored the 50% completed Glass City Riverwalk and thousands of THEM came to TECHLEDO 2026.

We’re extremely proud of that and of the success of . And we’ll be writing a BIG check to Dean Davis’ River Gallery Foundation very soon and that’ll put a bow on the gift that TECHLEDO was to us and so many of you. We couldn’t have done this without our community and we can’t wait to get to work on .

In the meantime, check out this INCREDIBLE video made by the uber-talented Alex Goetz to get an idea of what Watershed Weekend was all about and how TECHLEDO fit right into the celebration. And from Dennis Cox, Darlene Cox, Kristen Comer, and Doug Hinebaugh, thank you again to everybody who helped make this year’s TECHLEDO a dream come true.

We’re still reeling from the wonderful success of last weekend. And as we take stock of what we accomplished, is proud to have been a safe and enjoyable refuge for a community in pain. We believe that Art heals, lifts up, and inspires our entire region to keep on striving to do better.

That’s why we chose to support Dean Davis and his ever-growing River Gallery Mural Project for this year’s Techledo donor recipient. While we’d love to keep this rolling forever, we have to have a finish line somewhere so that we can get started on .

So we’re giving our family 3 more days to make a difference and contribute to the River Gallery Mural Project. Thanks to our Angel Donor, every dollar up to $10,000 gets matched. And thanks to all of you, we believe we can still hit that lofty goal. If you enjoyed TECHLEDO and would still like to support OR buy some last minute merch like t-shirts, please visit www.techledo.live today.

We’re closing the books on Friday at 5! But thank you all right now for helping us make a positive impact in Toledo and NW Ohio. It means the world to us.👊🪩❤️
