CLEVELAND, Ohio – The Pete Leneghan Entrepreneurship Foundation’s first run is scheduled for Sunday, September 5th.
Pete and his brother Tom founded The Treehouse in 1996 in the Tremont neighborhood of Cleveland. Pete Leneghan, who also founded the Stone Mad Pub in the Detroit Shoreway neighborhood in 2008, died of colon cancer on May 29, 2020.
