Sometimes, a simple hug says more than words ever could. 🤍

Today, on “Share a Hug” Day, take a moment to pause and give someone you love a warm hug. You would be surprised how one small action can make someone else’s day that much brighter.

Plus, life moves fast, and schedules get busy, so it’s a great reminder of the power of connection and the importance of taking time to express how much someone means to you. If you think about it, every day should be 'Share a Hug Day'!

🚴 The Landing, a proposed 27-acre public nature space will be a major step forward for the Sandusky Bay Pathway, a trail system that will eventually connect communities across our region, from Huron to Bay View and beyond.

This project reflects years of planning and collaboration among local, state, and federal partners, and brings us closer to realizing a continuous, accessible lakefront trail that strengthens quality of life and supports economic growth across the region.

👏 Congratulations to the City of Sandusky and all partners involved in bringing this vision to life.

There will be traffic delays as the procession passes through; portions of York Township Road 292 and Sandusky County Road 177 in the area of the cemetery will be closed to all traffic, vehicle and pedestrian. Community members who wish to line the route to honor Office Wagner are encouraged to do so—please park off of the traveled portion of the roadway.
