​

Good morning, Dublin. For $3 million, you could purchase a mansion that makes "working from home" take on an entirely new meaningβ€”at least for golf enthusiasts. The luxury New Albany property at 7754 Brandon Road not only sits along a prestigious country club course but features its own putting green and outdoor movie screen, giving new meaning to the phrase "home entertainment system."

Celebrity connections are lighting up Columbus this month as SNL star Kenan Thompson backs an exclusive dining experience launching August 31. The $250-per-ticket "Love Life Columbus" event promises seven courses of gourmet food alongside meaningful connections in a secret location. Meanwhile, history buffs might appreciate learning about the groundbreaking 1983 "Overground Railroad" voter registration march that traveled through Ohio, registering 14,000 new voters and contributing to increased turnout in the following year's presidential election.

πŸ—³οΈ Black voter registration march made history in 1983 Ohio. The NAACP's "Overground Railroad" traveled 360 miles from Kentucky to Michigan, stopping at the Ohio Statehouse during its journey to combat voter apathy. Named for paralleling routes used by enslaved people seeking freedom, the march registered approximately 14,000 new voters across four states. Though falling short of registering all 7.5 million unregistered Black voters nationwide, the effort contributed to Black voter turnout rising to 56% in the 1984 presidential election. Many attributed this increased participation to opposition to Reagan's policies and Jesse Jackson's historic presidential campaign.
