As our calendars flip to July, here are a few things we've got marked on them.
🎆 It's a busy week, with Independence Day celebrations and the annual Doo Dah Parade on the horizon.
People will start camping out for Red, White & Boom beginning 6pm Wednesday.
🎡 Other annual entertainment staples: the downtown Jazz & Rib Fest (July 18-20) and the Ohio State Fair (July 23-Aug. 3).
Don't forget the smaller Franklin County Fair in Hilliard (July 14-20).
👀 Governor's race: GOP candidate Vivek Ramaswamy has already raised a ton of money for his 2026 campaign.
Will it keep Lt. Gov. Jim Tressel and others from entering the race?
⚽ The Leagues Cup: The Crew are the reigning champs of the annual competition, which starts again July 29.
💵 Gov. Mike DeWine signed the state budget Monday night, and we'll recap what's impacted in Wednesday's newsletter.
