We`re just back from this morning`s annual Delaware-Morrow Mental Health & Recovery Services Board annual meeting and awards ceremony, held at the Byxbe Building. Congratulations to Kassie Neff from the Delaware County, OHIO, Sheriff`s Office and Charles Carlson from the Delaware County Coroner`s Office, as well as Scott Cubberly, a former member of our Finance Authority, who received awards for their outstanding work improving mental health awareness and resources in our community. We were also fortunate to hear from former OSU football and mental-health advocate Harry Miller about his journey to better health: Learn more about the work he does through his #DontMakeItWeird Foundation at dmiw.org. Thank you also to retired Ohio Supreme Court Justice Eve Stratton for joining Commissioner Barb Lewis in honoring Kassie Neff`s work with the Stepping Up Initiative. @dmmhrsb @delawarecosheriff
It’s Jug Day! Many Delaware County offices will be closed this afternoon. We will resume normal business hours and operations tomorrow.
We’re back after our morning at the Delaware County Fair, where the Commissioners held session and heard from a few of the 4-H exhibitors participating in this year’s Junior Fair! We also recognized Donna Meyer for her nearly 10 years of service as executive director of the Delaware County Historical Society. The Delaware County Fair continues through Saturday, offering many outstanding events, hundreds of displays and several days of harness racing leading up to the 80th running of the Little Brown Jug on Thursday.
The Veterans ID program offered by our Recorder`s Office returns to the Delaware County Fair this year! The program allows Ohio veterans to obtain a Document Identification Card that proves their eligibility for various benefits.
Veterans can visit the Recorder`s booth at the Fairgrounds Coliseum from Sept. 15-19 between 9:30 a.m.-4:30 p.m. each day.
