1. Effective yesterday, participants in the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) will be given an admission price of $1 to Cleveland museums, including the Cleveland Museum of Natural History and the Cleveland Botanical Garden. The new admissions policy is part of Museums for All, the only nationally coordinated financial accessibility program in the museum industry. To receive the $1 admission, visitors can bring their SNAP EBT card for the discounted admission for up to four guests. (News 5 Cleveland)
2. After months of speculation, the local professional baseball team in Cleveland will be able to officially use the name Guardians. According to a joint statement released by the baseball team and the roller derby team, both of which are now called the Cleveland Guardians, the name will be continued to be used by both organizations. It was confirmed in 2020 that the baseball team would be changing its nickname from "Indians," with the announcement of "Guardians" as the new nickname coming earlier this summer. A lawsuit was filed by the roller derby team claiming the baseball team was aware of the roller derby team's name. (WKYC.com)
