Good morning, Dayton.

Thousands gathered downtown yesterday for the 25th annual Dayton Celtic Festival, where local residents enjoyed music, dancing, traditional foods and cultural traditions (highlighting a rich mix of family heritage and first-time attendees joining longtime fans).

MrBeast granted heartfelt wishes for four Ohio children in his latest Youtube video through a partnership with A Special Wish Foundation.

The video features local kids who enjoyed special adventures including a visit to Give Kids the World Village — a gesture meant to spark hope in the community.

On June 24, Dayton International Airport announced Breeze Airways will launch non-stop flights from DAY this fall to four new destinations, with additional routes planned.
