Loveland, Ohio – As Memorial Day 2023, Monday, May 29 approaches, the city of Loveland, Ohio is gearing up to honor and remember the brave men and women who have made the ultimate sacrifice while serving in the United States Armed Forces. We especially honor the “Gold Star” family members. The city has planned a series of events for the day, including a program, parade, and a distinguished guest speaker.
The day starts with a parade that leaves at 9 AM from Loveland Elementary School, 600 Loveland Madeira Road, to the Loveland Veterans’ Memorial. If you or your organization would like to be in the parade, registration is still open. Register online.
Immediately following the parade a Memorial Day program will take place at the Loveland Veterans’ Memorial Park. The program will include a wreath-laying ceremony, patriotic music, and a moment of silence to honor the fallen heroes. The event will be open to the public, and all are invited to attend.
The ceremony will feature a speech from Sergeant Dave Corlett, an Army veteran who served in Iraq and a 31-year member of the Cincinnati Police Department.
Sergeant Corlett is the founder of the Military Liaison Group within the Cincinnati Police Department and an instructor with the Hamilton County Mental Health Crisis Teams. He has worked with Veterans Affairs and the local court system to improve relations between military veterans and law enforcement. His efforts have been recognized by the Department of Justice (DOJ), and he was the winner of the DOJ’s 2021 L. Anthony Sutin Award for Innovative Law Enforcement and Community Partnerships.
Prior to joining the Cincinnati Police Department in 1992, Sergeant Corlett was a member of the United States Army. He was assigned to Alpha Company, 1stBattalion, 24th Aviation Regiment where he served in Iraq during Operations Desert Storm and Desert Shield.

[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]LOVELAND, OHIO – Record Store Day will happen in Historic Downtown at Plaid Room Records the Saturday, April 22 from 8 A until 8 P. Plaid Room is located at 122 West Loveland Avenue.
Record Store Day was conceived in 2007 at a gathering of independent record store owners and employees as a way to celebrate and spread the word about the unique culture surrounding nearly 1400 independently-owned record stores in the US and thousands of similar stores internationally. The first Record Store Day took place on April 19, 2008. Today, Record Store Day is celebrated at independently-owned brick-and-mortar record stores around the world.
This is a day for the people who make up the world of the record store—the staff, the customers, and the artists—to come together and celebrate the unique culture of a record store and the special role they play in their communities. Special vinyl and CD releases and various promotional products are made exclusively for the day. Festivities include performances, cook-outs, body painting, meet & greets with artists, parades, DJs spinning records, and on and on. In 2008 a small list of titles was released on Record Store Day and that list has grown to include artists and labels both large and small, in every genre and price point. For several years, 60% or more of the Record Store Day Official Release List came from independent labels and distributors. The list continues to include a wide range of artists, covering the diverse taste of record stores and their customers.[/vc_column_text][vc_raw_html]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[/vc_raw_html][vc_column_text]
