Good morning, Youngstown.

On Sunday, the Travis Manion Foundation hosted the Mahoning Valley 9/11 Heroes Run at Kent State Trumbull to honor victims of the attacks and celebrate service members, first responders, and their families.

More than 100 participants joined the event—showing the community's commitment to remembrance.

A Girard store called Sweet Memories Vintage Tees & Candy partnered with Stuckey’s to help the Akron Children’s Hospital NICU by selling exclusive candy & apparel.

The store donated $70,000 since 2020 and plans to add $20,000 more this year, beating its original goal.

Mark Munroe, a 74-year-old Boardman resident and amateur radio operator, recalled that getting separated from his family at the Canfield Fair on Labor Day Weekend in 1963 set him on a path that led to five years in the Civil Air Patrol, active duty in the Air Force, and service in the Army Reserve. He later built a long career in video production and played a key role in local politics—serving on the Mahoning County Board of Elections and Ohio State Racing Commission before retiring.

On Saturday, the Youngstown South High Alumni Association held its 50th reunion where alumni from 1911 to the final graduating class gathered to honor the school’s history—awarding honors to the oldest and newest graduates.

Attendees also recalled the school’s past as a bomb shelter and wartime hospital, keeping its legacy alive.

A 22-year-old woman was shot dead in her apartment on the 2600 block of Tyrell Avenue early Saturday—her live-in girlfriend, also 22, was charged with murder and taken to Mahoning County jail.

Gasior, who served time for the deadly 2007 fire death of Stanley Makarski—whose body was found in a burning apartment on Broadway Avenue in Youngstown—is now back in jail.

Vincent A. Shivers led a black heritage bus tour Saturday that honored P.

Ross Berry, a master builder who helped shape Youngstown's early landmarks. The tour stopped at locations including Oak Hill Cemetery (a resting place for city pioneers) and Wick Avenue, with local history groups supporting the event.

The Mahoning Valley Historical Society celebrated 150 years of local history at a First Fridays Youngstown event called 'Past, Present and Future' held on Friday evening—partners Youngstown CityScape and the Downtown Youngstown Partnership offered guided tours and exhibits across downtown including at the Tyler History Center.

White House Fruit Farm in Canfield will hold its first Fall Harvest Weekend this coming weekend with live music, pumpkin picking, wagon rides and homemade treats on Saturdays and Sundays through October.
