🥽 Summer Adventures Await: Register for Mentor's 2024 Summer Camps Starting February
The City of Mentor is excited to announce that registration for their 2024 Summer Camps will begin soon, with residents able to sign up starting Thursday, February 1st, and non-residents from Monday, February 5th. Given the popularity of these camps and the limited availability of spaces, early registration is highly recommended.
Mentor Recreation's summer camps offer a diverse range of activities suitable for various interests. These include traditional day camps, sports camps, and discovery camps. Children will have opportunities to engage in a wide array of activities such as swimming, skating, going on exciting field trips, improving basketball skills, learning fencing, and indulging in creative pursuits like crafting, drawing, painting, and cooking. These camps promise not just learning and skill development but also a lot of fun!
The camps are managed by a dedicated and well-trained staff comprising adults and college students who are passionate about working with young people. This ensures a safe, educational, and enjoyable environment for all campers.
Residents should keep an eye out for the Mentor Summer Camp Guide, which will be arriving in mailboxes by mid-January. This guide will provide all the necessary information for registering your child for a summer filled with fun and adventure in 2024.

📈 Ohio's Lake and Ashtabula Counties Witness Yet Another Early Morning Earthquake
Residents of Lake and Ashtabula Counties in Ohio experienced a light earthquake early Friday morning, marking the second such event in Madison in less than a week and at least the fifth since late August. The United States Geological Survey reported the latest earthquake in Madison as having a magnitude of 2.6, occurring at 3:47 a.m. Its just the latest in a series of seismic activities in the area.
Local businesses, like Debonné Vineyards, are concerned about the frequency of these events. Seismologists attribute these quakes to natural tectonic movements. The ODNR and USGS continue to monitor the situation closely.
