The win was historic. The fall lineup? Even better 🍂
Good morning, Jackson County. Friday night, the Ironmen didn't just beat Gallia Academy — they made history, putting up the biggest margin of victory in the series' long, storied rivalry. The kind of win that has people still talking at the diner Monday morning. On the national front, employers added 162,000 jobs in August, enough to keep the economy humming along without changing much about the bigger financial picture.
While everyone's still riding that postgame high, there's plenty more worth circling on the calendar — the OHillCo Quilt & Craft Show kicks off September 9th, and Hope Fest plus a Jacob Tolliver live dinner show both land on the 17th. Real Estate has fresh local listings waiting too. Big week ahead, Jackson County.
