​

Good morning, Preble County. Leadership changes are reshaping local healthcare as Craig Kinyon steps into the CEO role at Reid Health after 17 years with the organization. His appointment signals a new chapter for the Richmond-based healthcare provider, whose officials have praised his vision and leadership qualities as exactly what's needed to guide their community health mission forward.

Mark your calendars for September 18 – the day Middletown's long-awaited Chick-fil-A finally arrives at 6465 Culbertson Road. This 5,200-square-foot restaurant near I-75 Exit 32 fulfills residents' decade-old wish and marks the chain's return after a 48-year absence. Meanwhile, college students seeking literary escapes can find oddly specific recommendations from "The Miami Student," including roommate murder deterrents and post-heartbreak healing reads. From healthcare leadership to chicken sandwiches to niche novels – our region offers something for everyone this week.
