• County road projects underway (delgazette.com) — Road crews are working on short-term pavement repairs along South Galena Road, including Alexander Road and Golf Course Road segments that Galena-area drivers likely use daily. These projects, part of a larger Delaware County construction push through summer, may cause brief delays but are intended to improve safety and driving conditions across nearby townships. 
• Big Apple Bishops (owu.edu) — An Ohio Wesleyan University business fellowship trip to New York City included Taylor Thomson, a student from Galena gaining firsthand exposure to Wall Street, marketing, and networking. The group met alumni business leaders, explored career paths in finance and entrepreneurship, and reflected on how these connections and experiences are shaping their professional goals.
