One outdoor adventure is about to shake up your August 🪶
Good morning, Ross County. Ross County deputies had a full plate on July 25 — the sheriff's crime log reads like a county-wide roll call, offering one of those candid snapshots of what your local law enforcement was juggling across Chillicothe and beyond. Nationally, oil prices spiked 6% as Middle East tensions shook markets, weekly jobless claims dipped again in what's becoming a very slow-motion labor market, and Tulsa pushed forward a $105 million reparations plan rooted in one of America's darkest historical chapters.
Closer to home, the Tecumseh Shawnee Epic is arriving August 4th if you're craving some outdoor adventure — pencil it in. Financial Friday is also serving up a reminder that brown-bagging your lunch can quietly do wonders for your wallet. Fresh local real estate listings are waiting inside too.
