Good morning, Medina.
Access the Arts plans to run two summer kids arts camps in Medina County next month, one at Sharon Elementary School from June 11 to 13 and one at Medina Public Square from July 16 to 18 for children in grades one to five.
The camps will let kids explore music, dance and art — scholarships are available — and end with a public display of their work.
Medina-based Out Support will host the fifth annual Pride on the Square event on Thursday, June 5 from 6 to 8 p.m. at Medina Public Square—families can bring picnic dinners and enjoy cupcakes, chalk art, live music by Natalie Martin, and activities for kids provided by Spark Medina.
Stephen D. Hambley released his new book, The Pioneer Route and Electric Railways of Northeast Ohio, which explains how electric railways evolved and impacted local communities like Medina County.
He wrote the book to share his lifelong passion for history and to support the Northern Ohio Railway Museum— all proceeds benefit its preservation efforts.
