Ohio wins the Governor's Cup

Wooster/Wayne County was again named Ohio's top micropolitan statistical area based on its 10 economic development projects, according to rankings by Site Selection magazine. The story appears in Tuesday's edition of The Daily Record.

Ohio beat out Texas for the number of development deals, so Gov. Ted Strickland received the Governor's Cup.

Wooster Area Chamber of Commerce Executive Director Jeff Griffin traveled to Dublin to represent the area, and he posed for this photo with Gov. Strickland. Thanks to Marc Kovac, Dixland's Capital Bureau Chief and the force behind The Capital Blog.

No politics for you!

I am heading to Columbus, Ohio, today for a day filled with magic, literally. I am heading down to MagiFest, which is organized every year by Jep Hostetler, who, incidentally, grew up in Wayne County (Dalton, to be exact) and still has family here.

I am not sure if I will run into Marc Kovac, former special assignments editor for The Daily Record who is now the capital bureau chief for Dix Communications, as I drive down I-71. At any rate, you can always see what Marc is up to on his Capital Blog.

The to-do list for today:
1. Drive safely
2. Have fun at MagiFest
3. No politics!
4. Be ready for Sunday School lesson at 9:45 a.m. Sunday at Parkview Church of Christ, 1912 Burbank Road, Wooster, Ohio. (You're invited!)
