Union County • October 3, 2025
Good morning, Union County. From classical masterpieces to flipped tanker trucks, the local news landscape is as varied as autumn's colorful palette this week. The Avalon Theatre transforms into a sanctuary of sound on October 4, when the Central Ohio Symphony String Quartet brings works by Shostakovich, Mozart, and Mendelssohn to life in what promises to be an intimate journey through three distinct musical eras—all for the remarkably accessible price of $15 for adults and just $5 for children.
Meanwhile, The Links Apartments is rolling out the red carpet—or rather, the ribbon—for its grand re-opening celebration starting October 3. The weekend-long festivities kick off with a Chamber of Commerce ceremony and continue with apartment tours, fitness classes, and even an Ohio State football watch party. This stands in stark contrast to Wednesday's dramatic scene on SR 161, where a tanker truck carrying 8,500 gallons of fuel flipped at a roundabout, thankfully without any leaks.
