Darke County • October 1, 2025
Good morning, Darke County. Yarn enthusiasts have reason to celebrate as The Yarn Remedy prepares to open its doors on November 1. Downtown Greenville's newest creative haven promises not just quality fibers and accessories, but also a cozy "sit-and-stitch" corner where crafters can connect. Those eager for a sneak peek can attend the October 11 preview during Downtown Girls Day Out, where founder Tristin Coghill will welcome fellow fiber artists to her Broadway Street location.
Infrastructure improvements are on the horizon with Miami County approving a substantial $2.44 million resurfacing project for County Road 25-A, though patience will be required as work won't begin until 2030. On a more immediate note, the Sidney Police Department recently demonstrated community care beyond enforcement at their second annual recovery picnic, where K-9 demonstrations entertained families while recovery resources were made available in a supportive, non-threatening environment.

Commissioners also accepted nearly $90,000 in grant funding for traffic enforcement programs targeting holiday periods with increased patrols. Additional approvals included a courthouse historical display project, speed limit review on Swailes Road, and the creation of a new Building and Electrical Inspector position for the county.
