YourDelawareCounty

Delaware County, Ohio

Welcome to YourDelawareCounty

As editor of ThisWeek Community Newspapers in Delaware County, it is my pleasure to introduce “YourDelawareCounty” a portal to all things Delaware, Powell and Sunbury, as well as Liberty, Orange, Genoa and Berlin townships. Residents and business owners are encouraged to sign up and meet old friends, make new friends and share opinions, ideas, pictures, videos, etc.
YourDelawareCounty will include the latest news and sports stories, as reported by ThisWeek staff.
Delaware County has come a long way in the past decade, and ThisWeek has followed its progress. Rapid growth in population, housing and business have changed the appearance of the county's most heavily traveled routes and many of its lesser traveled ones. Construction of new school buildings has become almost routine in the Olentangy school district and is at hand in the Big Walnut school district. Local governments are faced with the challenge of meeting the increased demand for services in today's uncertain economic climate.
ThisWeekNews.com's YourDelawareCounty aims to continue its role in the community by providing residents and business owners with a central location to not only meet up and make new friends, but also to voice their opinions and share their ideas on their community.

Delaware County will grow more [citation needed]

We’ve all heard the complaints that Wikipedia is frequently (if not usually) inaccurate and misleading and can’t get anything right.
Wikipedia’s editors seem to be fighting hard against that image. They are doing it in part with the bracketed phrase “citation needed.”
This is the Wikipedia editors’ way of saying a statement was made without the benefit of any supporting documentation. It’s another way of saying what you are reading might be bogus.
Taking a look today at the Wikipedia article on… Continue

Thank you driving teacher

A gigantic thanks to the Brown’s Driving School teacher who told my son today that he approaches stop signs WAY too fast.

Those words have been able to leave my lips despite the fact that my heart and stomach have dropped to my feet.

Thanks for the backup. Maybe now I’ll be able to enjoy the passenger’s seat a bit more.

My kids only seem willing to listen to my advice if some other person out there says the same thing.
