Good morning, Medina.

The Medina County Veterans Memorial Fund will display over 100 American and Service Flags at Tri-C University Brunswick campus from Aug.

15—17 to honor local veterans. The three-day event will feature a flag parade, musical entertainment, an ice-cream social, and a Vietnam War Veterans prayer breakfast along with a tribute to the 33 Medina residents who died in the Vietnam War.

Local building and business owners are using state grant funds to improve facades in downtown Medina.

Main Street Medina approved 14 projects + 2 pending proposals and will reimburse owners up to 5,000 dollars per project if work is completed by June 2026.

State troopers in Medina County investigated an Interstate 71 South crash on July 28 near milepost 208 in Westfield Township—where a Missouri family's 2020 Nissan Armada hydroplaned on wet conditions and struck a parked commercial truck—that left 42-year-old Ryan Broyles Sr. dead while his wife and children were injured and the truck driver remained unharmed.

Ohio's Sales Tax Holiday runs from Aug 1 to Aug 14 and lets shoppers buy nearly all items priced at $500 or less without state sales tax both in-store and online—stores must follow the law while vehicles, watercraft, and alcoholic beverages remain taxed.
