She Kills Monsters tells the story of Agnes Evans as she leaves her childhood home in Ohio following the death of her teenage sister, Tilly. When Agnes finds Tilly’s Dungeons & Dragons notebook, however, she finds herself catapulted into a journey of discovery and action-packed adventure in the imaginary world that was her sister’s refuge.

September 15, 2022 By Dayton937

Yellow Springs Brewery and WYSO will release the second version of the WYSO-inspired Vox Populi beer at a dance party this Friday, August 16, at the brewery’s Barrel Room.

Radio Basim, host of “Behind the Groove,” will DJ from 7–9 pm, and Chef Dane will be on site from 5–8 pm to prepare dinner. Screen printer Four Ambition will be in the parking lot starting at 6 pm to print T-shirts, with the Vox Populi artwork, that will be available only at the event.

Vox Populi was first released in 2014, as an American Pale Ale. The new batch is a pilsner, brewed with German malt and German and Czech hops, and will be available Friday only on tap (no cans yet).

WYSO Music Director Juliet Fromholt said this long-time partnership with Yellow Springs Brewery formed easily because both organizations are community-minded. “It felt natural to celebrate that,” she said. “It’s so wonderful to combine our talents to gather the community together—and dance!”

On Friday, attendees can also get maps for and information about the musicians playing at Yellow Springs Porchfest, which starts at noon on Saturday.

Exhibit Exploring Transformative Innovations in Aerospace at Air Force Museum

September 15, 2022 By Dayton937

“Above and Beyond,” an interactive science exhibition exploring transformative innovations in aerospace, will launch Saturday, Sept. 17 at the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force.

The 500-square-metre exhibition will offer an unprecedented interactive demonstration of advances in aviation and aerospace, from the first powered flights to the newest innovations on Earth and in space. Flight simulation, immersive theater, touch-table displays, and augmented reality are examples of exhibit technology offering an experiential understanding of the scientific concepts behind flight.

After entering an immersive wraparound theater, visitors can venture into five galleries comprising dozens of interactive displays. Exhibit goers can ride to the edge of space in a simulated space elevator or test their own supersonic fighter-jet design in a virtual high-speed flying competition. A group flying experience with motion-sensing image capture helps visitors sense what it’s like to fly like a bird in a flock, while exploring the forces of flight.

“While we celebrate the U.S. Air Force’s 75th Anniversary with a look at the past, present and future it’s the perfect time to launch ‘Above and Beyond’ at the museum,” said National Museum of the USAF Education Division Chief, Michael Brimmer. “This immersive interactive exhibit is a tremendous way to help spark student interest in what could be possible in the future and encourage them to continue studying the fields of science, technology, engineering and math – or STEM.”

Located in the museum’s 4th building, “Above and Beyond” is free to all visitors and will be open during regular museum hours of 9 a.m. – 5 p.m. daily from Sept. 17 – Dec.15.

“Above and Beyond” is produced by Evergreen Exhibitions in association with Boeing, in collaboration with NASA and the Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum. In addition, the Air Force Museum Foundation has also partnered with CenterPoint Energy, which in part allows the museum to host free interactive aviation experiences including the “Above and Beyond” exhibit presented by Boeing. Federal endorsement is not implied.

Throughout 2022 the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force has proudly celebrated the 75th anniversary of the United States Air Force by hosting a variety of events and exhibits to share the history of the Air Force and the stories of our airmen with the public. A complete schedule of events and exhibits is available at https://www.nationalmuseum.af.mil/Upcoming/Events/75th-anniversary/.

City to invest $400,000 for development at former hospital site

September 14, 2022 By Dayton937

The City of Dayton will invest $400,000 to begin development of a YMCA of Greater Dayton health and wellness facility at the former Good Samaritan Hospital site. The funding to help build a key part of the Northwest Health & Wellness Campus, a $17.5 million development located at 2222 Philadelphia Dr., will be provided through the Dayton Recovery Plan.

The full-service YMCA will complement other health and community organizations with planned operations at the site. As the first build at the former hospital site, it will bring important services and desired amenities to Northwest Dayton.

The Dayton Recovery Plan investment supports community-driven projects by partners and community groups offering programs and services serving areas hardest hit by the COVID pandemic.

“We are very happy to support the Northwest Health & Wellness campus,” said Dayton Mayor Jeffrey J. Mims, Jr. “This investment will leverage public and private investments that will lead to valuable resources for area residents, as well as services addressing economic disparities, such as job training, homebuyer education, and financial literacy. All of these became even more needed during the COVID pandemic.”

The YMCA of Greater Dayton Foundation, LLC, will utilize this funding to purchase mechanical, electrical and design services, infrastructure and materials costs, and other pre-construction services to support construction.

The YMCA will occupy the 50,000-sq.-ft. Northwest Health & Wellness Campus with partners Premier Health, Wright State University, County Corp, CareSource, and Goodwill. The Northwest Health & Wellness Campus will occupy approximately five acres of the former hospital site; an additional eight acres are under consideration for potential redevelopment.

“We have been supporting the development of the Good Sam site for many years,” said City Manager Shelley Dickstein. “This investment will help drive economic vitality, create jobs and leverage other investments in the area to promote healthy living. It will also catalyze additional positive activity in Northwest Dayton. We are proud to lend our support to this important project.”

For more than 15 years, the City of Dayton, Premier Health, CityWide Development and others worked together in the neighborhoods surrounding Good Samaritan Hospital in Northwest Dayton. The work, known as the Phoenix Project, included investments of more than $20 million that leveraged an additional $45 million in healthcare, education, housing, infrastructure improvements and new amenities.

After the closing of Good Samaritan Hospital, a new initiative managed by CityWide Development called PhoenixNext was conducted from early 2018 through early 2019 to create a vision for re-use of the 13-acre former hospital site and investment in the Phoenix Project area neighborhoods.

National Cheeseburger Day Deals

September 12, 2022 By Dayton937

Lionel Sternberger was 16 years old in 1926, flipping burgers inside his dad’s sandwich shop, the “Rite Spot,” in Pasadena, California. But, here’s where things get interesting. Consistent with most how-it-got-started stories, there are two versions. In one, Lionel, out of curiosity, added a piece of American cheese onto a hamburger frying on the griddle. In version two, a homeless passerby saw Lionel working those burgers and suggested adding cheese. Either way, the rest is mouth-watering, delicious history. Prepare to enjoy an American food icon — a cheeseburger oozing warm cheesy deliciousness on top of a moist, juicy patty.

Hell’s Dungeon Now Open

September 10, 2022 By Dayton937

Dayton, Ohio’s only all indoor haunted attraction!

Hells Dungeon is a unique all indoor haunted attraction located in Dayton, Ohio. Their team is dedicated to providing a one-of-a-kind experience to all guests.

Rufus,theirr resident devil himself, has called you forth to receive eternal judgment. Join your fellow lost souls on a journey like no other. Together, you will traverse the circles of Hell’s darkest dungeon.

Trapped and alone for eternity, Rufus desired companionship. He lured the world’s darkest citizens to his domain. For them he created a sinister mockery of Mainstreet USA where the streets run red with blood and all souls are fair game. Follow your guides closely, they alone hold the secret to your survival.

Unable to provide sustenance, Rufus called upon the Loa of Dark Harvest; Mambo Marie. She used her profane powers to create the swamps beyond Mainstreet; teeming with life for the taking. To work those fertile grounds she summoned the masters of the hunt, the Firewood Clan. A family of sadistic cannibals, the Firewoods are always on the lookout to fill their larders with the freshest and sweetest of meats.

To cure his own afflictions and those of his people, Rufus created the Maniacal Asylum. A pinnacle of experimentation and treatment, its staff is composed of the darkest minds in all fields of medical science. Check in with Nurse Hatchet when you arrive. You won’t have to wait long, The Doctor is ALWAYS in…

Sensing the need to appease the masses, Rufus searched far and wide for a solution. In the end, he summoned the mysterious Jugular Brothers to provide the ultimate entertainment.

Join JB Rotten and his Owl-Light Freakshow on your way to the bigtop for the strangest show the world has ever seen. Grab some snacks and play a few games in the midway before reaching the main attraction; The Bonkers and Blades Variety Show! You’ll laugh, you’ll cry, you’ll puke, you’ll die!

Rufus created the ultimate warden to keep his motley collection of souls in line. Forged in the raging inferno of Hell’s Dungeon, Haywire takes his job quite seriously. Armed with advanced instruments of torture, he is a melodius symphony of mechanical misery.

A long and perilous journey awaits you. Be prepared to face your deepest fears and lay bare your darkest secrets. Should you escape these unhallowed halls, salvation will be yours!

Only one question remains…

Will

You

Survive?
