Good morning, Union County. Mark your calendars for July 25th – it's shaping up to be quite the day around here. Marysville's newly renovated Walmart Supercenter will roll out the red carpet with a proper community celebration, complete with local dignitaries, choir performances, and free samples. The same evening, Honda Marysville Motorsports hosts their monthly gathering of chrome and character for vehicle enthusiasts and barbecue lovers alike.
Looking ahead, our community's commitment to public safety takes concrete form with Ohio Hi-Point's planned $400,000 training facility breaking ground next year. Meanwhile, country music fans have reason to celebrate as national recording artist Dylan Scott is set to headline next summer's Rock the Clock festival in Plain City. At just $20 for general admission (and free for the little ones), it's the kind of small-town event that reminds us why we love calling this corner of Ohio home.
