Good morning, Stark County. The skies are getting friendlier at Akron-Canton Airport where Breeze Airways just dropped major news: six new non-stop flights are coming this fall, making CAK the airline's most expanded location this week. Soon you'll be jetting directly to Key West's turquoise waters or Daytona's famous beaches—with fares starting at just $49 one-way. The expansion will boost our region's total non-stop destinations to an impressive 24, reconnecting travelers with cities that larger carriers previously abandoned.
Meanwhile, the county is buzzing with cultural opportunities for every interest. Grieving children can find support at Camp Hope's free one-day program, music lovers can enjoy everything from 60s classics to country tunes, and photographers can participate in Massillon Museum's unique "Simulating Visual Impairment" workshop. When exploring these local gems, you might bump into Allyson Bussey, Visit Canton's dedicated CEO, who's spent 18 years showcasing what makes our corner of Ohio special.
