It’s almost time for Zucchinifest which means it’s time to make sure you are registered for your Obetz Black Card in order to utilize our Zucchinifest Home Advantage Program!

This program includes a special concert viewing area, exclusive parking, and other festival perks! Please be sure you are registered for your Black Card by August 1, 2024 to take advantage of this.

Residents can collect their Black Cards from the Obetz Athletic Club at 2050 Recreation Trail, Obetz, Ohio 43207. To accommodate varying schedules, the Black Card pickup will be available during the following hours:

  • Monday to Friday: 5 AM to 9 PM
  • Saturday and Sunday: 7 AM to 3 PM

Upon arriving at the Obetz Athletic Club, residents are requested to ring the doorbell for staff assistance. Our friendly team members will be there to help you with your Black Card pickup.

In the time leading up to Zucchinifest, residents will not be able to pick up their Black Card the week of June 24th through June 28th, or on July 4th. If you apply during this time you will be notified when you are able to pick up your card.
