Claridon Means Community
Welcome to the community of Claridon, OH. Here, we’ve provided you with information you need as a resident. If you can’t find the answers you are looking for, please don’t hesitate to contact any of your Trustees.
Claridon is made of good, caring, hardworking, faithful, generous and common sense people. We have a community full of them! Many ask, "How can I get involved in the community?" Call the Township and ask or contact a Claridon based charity, such as Claridon Community Helps, for volunteering or donating opportunities. You can also contact one of our three churches here in Claridon and ask about volunteering for or dontating to any of their community based ministries. You can link to Claridon charities and churches on our Dates & Links page.

DID YOU KNOW?
Did you know we are not the only Claridon Township in Ohio? There is another Claridon Township in Marion County less then an hour and half away as it is 135 miles Southeast of us. Both Claridons are roughly the same size with near equivalent population. We get many calls and emails from folks thinking we are the Claridon Township in Marion. We've talked with the good folks there and said we are happy to help out by listing their contact information on our website. Here is information if you are trying to contact the other Claridon Township.

On August 1, 2021, we had our first annual Get Down With The Town community gathering. It was a huge success! The 'old-school' sense of community prevailed! Some residents brought homemade goods. One resident did magic tricks for the children. Other residents helped out with set up and clean up. Jason the D.J. spun fun tunes. The Vinny's and Fat Daddy food truck was a big hit and we enjoyed Mr. Buth's 'Snowies' from his food truck for a sweet treat. More than 175 residents attended. Claridonites met many other Claridonites for the first time. Over 50 residents received free t-shirts.
There was plenty of helpful Township information to take home.
Get Down with the Town will return on the first Sunday evening of every August from 5:00p to 8:00p. Next year's date will be August 7. This is one event you don't want to miss so mark your calendars now! Thank you to all who attendend and thank you for all your kind comments! Claridon Township!

NEW RECYCLE CENTER LOCATION COMING SOON
The recycling center will be moving to Merritt road in Claridon. Construction started on June 4. Anticipated completion is October. This center will be managed by the Geauga Trumbull Solid Waste District and will accept more than what our current center accepts. More details soon.
Thank you to the children of Taylor Plumbing!
We were hoping someone, group or business in Claridon would answer the call to landscape around our new sign. The children of Taylor Plumbing answered the call! Thank you for your donation of material and time. With children like these, Claridon's future remains bright!
