Summer Concert Series
The final concert of the season in the Chardon Summer Concert Series takes place Aug. 16 from 7-9 p.m. on Chardon Square. Northern Comfort Band will perform traditional country music.
The weekly concerts that are supervised by Chardon Kiwanis have been wonderful.

Visit the farmer’s market on for homegrown veggies, pastries, hamburgers, sausages, crepes, cut flowers and perennials, fragrant soaps, beeswax, jellies, fresh lemonade and more. The market is open on Short Court Street from 4-8:30 pm. every Friday through the end of September.
Happy Birthday Wishes
Happy belated birthday wishes go out to Bill and Tom Noyes who enjoyed their twin birthdays on Aug. 13. Their mother Paula is very proud of their achievements and we both want to wish them the best for this birthday and for many more to come.
Laura Novotney celebrated her birthday in July. Her daughter Kristen is attending Ohio State this fall.
I want to wish all the great students from Chardon the very best as they return to the classroom this fall and to the college-bound and technical-bound students the very best as well.
Special tribute goes out to any who are enlisting in the military. May God keep and protect them all.

Comment For The Day
The summer is quickly coming to a close and kids will be returning to school. Now is the time to take a ride with the family and enjoy the “countryside” full of nature’s beauty, the awesome vastness of Lake Erie, the numerous museums and programs on the agenda at many parks in and around Geauga County.
