Help Keep Akron Beautiful!
Yesterday was Earth Day, and we here at Rubber City Radio Group and WQMX, decided to help clean up our corner of the Earth. April is Clean Up Akron Month and we teamed up with Keep Akron Beautiful to pick up trash and recyclables around our buildings. This is something we have done for the past few years.
It takes an hour, if that, and you will be amazed what you can do. It is not too late to do something this month. You can help clean up your part of the Earth- just go to KeepAkronBeautiful.org. You sign up your group, organization or school. They provide the trash bags, gloves, all the supplies that you will need.
If we just take the time to keep our square of the world clean, imagine what we can accomplish…

Todays Weather - Waiting Our Turn
We have been riding the weather roller coaster that last few weeks, and like you, I am ready for the good weather to get here for good. Tons of mowing yesterday, and tons of rain today, and then cool - to darn near cold for a day or so.
Gotta be patient!
The weather, is like anything else, sometimes you just have wait your turn. We're waiting!

Earth Day hacks to replace plastics
I found a great article yesterday in the Parade Magazine of the Akron Beacon Journal.
The fact that many items we use CANNOT be recycled really bothers me. The fact that
manufactureres and packagers do not come up with alternatives is another upsetting fact..
These items can help you reduce your own foot print on our planet. I already have ordered
three of the items!
Glass water bottle over plastic.
Bamboo toothbrush 100% biodegradable
Wax Canvas Lunch Bag
Bees Wrap replaces seran!!!! Totally reusable!!
Bags and totes to replace grocery bags seems so easy, yet many do not use.
Synthetic sponges...The Unsponge good for 4-6 months, wash and tumble dry can be composted in small peices or taken to fabric bank.
Rech out to me at This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it. if you have any questions!!
For Those Who Spent the Weekend in Church...
Eric Church came to Cleveland twice over Easter Weekend. Twice. He double downed. Those who attended Church over the weekend witnessed two incredible, yet different shows.
After night one, I was impressed. I left thinking, how could he top that? Then, I got to thinking- wait, he didn’t sing that, or that. You forget all the hits, all the great song Eric Church has had over his career.
Night two did not disappoint either. Church came out swinging. Ready to entertain. Each night he sang a slew of hit songs, favorite album cuts, tributes to Cleveland, each night giving shout outs to the Dusty Armadillo, and he gave us all his energy. It was truly incredible. It felt weird not going to a Church show last night!
Eric Church is an entertainer, a performer and a true country artist. I will continue to say this- find the funds, find a way and get to a show. Seeing him perform live is true experience.
