Good morning, Muskingum County. Mark your calendars and plan your routes carefully—our community is buzzing with activity this week. From road closures for essential paving work to the groundbreaking of Genesis Healthcare's new Straker Hospice Care House, the landscape of our county is literally and figuratively transforming. Meanwhile, local McDonald's restaurants are serving up community support alongside their regular menu on October 23, with 10% of app sales benefiting area high schools—a delicious way to fund education while satisfying your Quarter Pounder craving.
The spirit of giving extends throughout the region, with Coshocton and Guernsey counties hosting everything from handbag raffles to an all-you-can-eat roast beef fundraiser with free meals for veterans. Nature enthusiasts can learn about bats at the library, music lovers can catch the Dogwood Blossoms Chorus, and runners can lace up for Guernsey County FOP Lodge 136's inaugural 5K. Whether you're interested in healthcare advancements, community fundraisers, or educational programs, this week offers something for everyone.
