​

Good morning, Muskingum County. American automotive heritage gleamed under the summer sun as 28 Corvettes transformed Roscoe Village into a car enthusiast's paradise during the annual cruise-in on June 8. The Classic Glass Corvette Club's showcase drew admirers from across the region, with photographer Leonard Hayhurst capturing these rolling masterpieces as they lined the historic streets—a perfect celebration of engineering excellence and design innovation.

While Newark residents and city officials navigate the balance between growth and community concerns with the approval of 200+ new apartments despite neighborhood pushback, Barnesville celebrates civic pride following their "marvelous" Memorial Day service. The successful community event highlighted the power of collaboration, with village staff, local businesses, and emergency services coming together to honor tradition, even as officials turn their attention to practical matters like wastewater treatment improvements and addressing water quality concerns.
