The weekend will kick-off on Saturday. May 12, with a Champagne and Candlelight Preview from 7-10 p.m. Five featured homes will be open for a limited number of guests for the VIP tour.
Hardin County Talks is an ongoing initiative that brings together community members to discuss issues of shared interest. On Tuesday, April 24, at 6 pm at Kenton High School, there will be a county-wide discussion on the role of schools in addressing issues of race.
Topics covered will include faculty diversity and what is being done to ensure that the faculty and staff are representative of the community. The goal is to highlight current initiatives in our schools and understand how those attending might support and strengthen them.
A Juvenile Diabetes Research Walk for a Cure will be held at 2 p.m. on Saturday, April 14 outside of the Sports Center at Ohio Northern University.
