Pickaway County • April 1, 2025
Good morning, Pickaway County. The numbers tell the story this week—Circleville police responded to a staggering 92 incidents across town during a single weekend, tackling everything from burglaries on Court Street to traffic violations throughout the community. While officers were busy keeping our streets safe, they also found time to check on residents' mental health and resolve disputes, reminding us that modern policing extends far beyond crime-fighting.
Music lovers have a rare treat coming this Saturday as the U.S. Army Jazz Ambassadors bring their world-class performance to Ohio Christian University—completely free with reservation. Meanwhile, transformational stories will take center stage at The Covering's annual banquet on April 5, where attendees will hear powerful testimonies like Yolanda Travis's journey from decades of addiction to recovery and family reunion. Both events showcase how our community continues to offer both healing and harmony, often at no cost but with immeasurable value.
