Hi Akron, I’m an amateur astrophotographer, living in Barberton. I thought this might be a place to share some shots I’ve taken over the last couple of months from my backyard.

I posted my Blood Moon Eclipse photos back in March (see post history) and thought y’all might like to see what’s been up in the sky since then. All photos taken with my Seestar S50 (which I’ve named Ziggy Seestar).

So according to the websites I've seen, if you sign up and finish each of the 3 Akron races in the series this year (the 8k, 10k/Half, and the Marathon/Half/Team Relay) you should get this series medal. But how do you actually pick it up? It won't just be at the finish of the marathon because then how would you prove you did the other 2 races, right? Do we have to email someone or fill out a form? Will it be mailed?

It's a very cool medal, I've just got no idea how I'm supposed to actually obtain it?

Does anyone know of any good used car dealers that won't rip you off and actually has good used cars and a fair warranty from your personal experience? Ionly have $8k for a max budget right now and keep get horror stories about places.

Going to a concert in Akron for my birthday but we are getting dinner before. I was wondering what fancy restaurant was better, Crave or Flemming's???

Hey Neighbors - Looking for a Nanny for the next 3 months for my two kids - we are looking for someone dependable to help around the house. I have a 2 year old daughter that is home, and a 5 year old that starts school in a week. Wanted to check with the community to see if anyone has any good suggestions on where to look for someone like this. Any suggestions are much appreciated!

I’m preparing for my SAD to creep up. (I know we’ve only had one cold day).

This winter I need to move my body and sauna… wouldn’t also mind swimming.

What’s the cleanest nicest place to do that?

I’ve tried Kohl Family Y, Esporta and the Nat…. Looking for somewhere else that will fill all or some of these needs…

Just found out that Snip It’s in Hudson closed permanently. Any other kids haircut places to take my son (5)? Looking for somewhere no farther than 25ish minutes from Akron. Thanks!

While driving past the corner of Killian and Main, near IBH and Portage Lakes, I saw a flyer on the back of a stop sign that read, "Stand Up White Man!"

Does this mean Akron has a white supremacy problem?

Just picked up tickets for me and 11 year old daughter to attend the game Thursday night. Staying downtown at Blu-tique. Is the walk to/from the stadium a bad idea? I am aware of the free parking at campus lots, but the distance is easy as long as it’s safe. Appreciate your recommendations.

Hey all! Was wondering if anyone had any experience nearby with a Psychiatrist for a teen with anxiety. Looking for someone that comes recommended and does online calls. Thanks in advance!

Hi all, I just moved back to Akron after being away for about 5 years, and am looking for a job to make some cash for the next few months while I transition into something better.

It seems as though a good few places I’ve applied to aren’t actually hiring or were just data farms. I’ve received very few constructive responses, but have received a massive influx in spam calls, texts and emails.

I have a decade of work experience from customer service to armed security. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Unique/local options are ideal; not super into giant corporation jobs (AKA do not care if you live or die jobs).

Thanks 330 😃

Hey guys I’ve had bad experiences with Wilson plumbing and Jackson Comfort services. Does anyone have any recommendations for a good one man show plumber in the Ellet area or a quality and reasonable company they would recommend?

Hello, I am having a small get together with my girl friends at my house. I need some suggestions for family meals or party trays that can accommodate 10 people (hoping for something a little nicer than pizza) was hoping to do Chick-fil-A trays but I am having it on a Sunday ):

I am a 27 year old artist. I currently live in the midwest and I want to move to a bigger city with more opportunities and closer access to larger cities. I am looking for a place that has a punk/goth scene. I love going to punk house shows and goth nights. I love art so artistic people to befriend, galleries, museums, collectives, art fests and conventions, "final/first fridays" events are important to me.

I love that Akron seems to have more affordable victorian style houses, so that gives me hope that i might actually be able to own a house one day lol.

I also love coffeeshops/bookstores and thrifting! do yall have that?

Thanks!

They don’t know about this quite yet because I want it to be a surprise, any recommendations? What would something like this cost?

Anyone remember what the drive thru was called on Copley Rd, in Copley? I remember riding my bike there in the 80's, they always had a great stock of candy. It is now known as Hamad's Auto Repair, could've sworn there was a barber shop there too. What was it called???'

I moved from the Midwest a little over 8 years ago and haven't been able to get a Hot Beef Plate in the South. I am headed to the National Park this weekend and was wondering if anyone knew of a place that I could get a Hot Beef Plate from near Stow.

I tried to search online and the only ones that were coming up was TipTopStow & Hartville Kitchen Restaurant (30 minutes away).

Any suggestions would be great, preferably russet over red potatoes.

I was perusing maps and noticed this pond, complete with picnic table and beach, near Mud Brook in Cuyahoga Falls. Anyone know if it's in any way public, or what property it might be attached to?

Just north of the Marcs plaza

This is the 2nd time within 3 yrs I went to the er. The first time, some of the Dr's, staff were rude, unprofessional. Anyways, I have been having extreme pain in my calf for a week and the symptoms may be a blood clot.

I go in at 4am and the place is full. People were sleeping on the nasty floor, really sick folks all cramped in together like sardines. No space. Which is concerning if someone has a contagious disease.

I waited 3 hrs and asked what is the avg wait time. I was told they have no idea. Ridiculous.

I do not have a pcp. Can anyone recommend what to do? I was told to get an mri and special test for blood clots. Any other hospital or what? Thanks

Is there anything fun to do in Akron on a Monday? I want to get out of the house. I'm a huge fan of stuff like trivia, karaoke, and dancing.
