Summit County • July 29, 2025
Good morning, Summit County. A million-dollar brewing legacy has changed hands in Kent, where the former MadCap Brew Co. facility on Mogadore Road just sold for a cool seven figures. The transaction marks another chapter in Northeast Ohio's commercial property story, even as Stan Hywet Hall prepares to weave a different kind of narrative with "The Families that Built Akron" – an ambitious exhibition seeking personal artifacts and stories that capture our community's diverse historical tapestry.
While history enthusiasts gather their family archives, music fans are making very different preparations. Kesha's upcoming "T!ts Out Tour" stop at Blossom Music Center promises both an electrifying performance and potential traffic headaches on July 28. Officials are already issuing early arrival recommendations, with parking lots opening at 4 p.m. for what's expected to be a packed house. Fans should remember to download mobile tickets beforehand and prepare for cashless concessions throughout the venue.
