In recognition of Black History Month, on Sunday, February 6th at 2pm, Marty Reich and Dan Walter will present a program about local jazz history. Their presentation will begin with a discussion of the library of 8,000 78 RPM jazz records collected by Ken Hulsizer and once housed in Urbana.
On display will be a dual turntable, recently donated by Pat and Patsy Thackery to the museum, that was custom made for Hulsizer in about 1936 when he operated a club on Scioto Street. The Turntable was used again once the records were moved to 12 1/2 Monument Square when Hulsizer would entertain jazz musicians, many of whom had played on his rare recordings, a catalogue of which will be on display.

Reich and Walter will also feature photos and information about local jazz musicians such as Harry Stevens as well as various dance bands that played in Champaign County and the surrounding area.

Today began Winner's One Stop in Mechanicsburg's partnership with Der Dutchman Restaurant and Bakery in Plain City. Their donuts, muffins, and cookies will be available Monday- Saturday.
It was a very successful first day as Winner's One Stop had a hard time keeping the fresh donuts stocked in their market due to high demand.
Picture
The market stated on their Facebook page this morning, "We appreciate your patience as we determine what the proper number of doughnuts to order on a daily basis is."

Winner's is hoping to get a custom order program started in the near future and potentially a long-term relationship with Der Dutchman.

You can follow their Facebook page here to stay informed on their partnership with Der Dutchman.
