Giving Thanks, in all circumstances

I've floated in and out of relationships all over the country for my entire life. None seeming to be more or less important than the other, but each uniquely impactful in my development as a human being....the problem is, I always seem to appreciate and understand each experience far beyond it's occurrence. That brings me to Dublin, a community I’ve put my energies into supporting over the last few years. Many great people working hard to make a difference, most doing so just under all of our r… Continue

Will Dublin residents utilize this network?

So I'm all for 'social marketing' and finding creative ways to deliver a UVP to potential consumers but as I watch trends in the social networks I study, I'm understanding what works, and what does not. The more you have 'promotions' the less you have 'communication'. I propose that if anyone brings an 'event' or 'solicitation' into the YourDublin network, that they also bring personality and substance to a conversation beyond the one they submit. I think this does a couple things, one… Continue

Columbus, OH originally hosted the U.S. Open golf tournament in 1926 at the Scioto Country Club in Upper Arlington. While Scioto is a nationally recognized, 155 acre club, as golf courses grew in size over the following years it became apparent Columbus would need a bigger course to attract national level tour… Continue

    Dublin history lesson

    Peter and Benjamin Sells came to the area around 1801 from Huntington County, Pa., to buy land. Old Dublin was first platted in 1810 by their brother, John. Surveyor John Shields named the town after his birthplace in Ireland. The town developed the usual assortment of mills, shops and churches, with settlers coexisting peacefully with Wyandot Indians, who camped on Indian Run. The town gained notoriety in the mid-19th century, when a surplus of taverns and rowdy Civil War veterans gave the village a tough reputation. Columbus' growth and the construction of I-270 made expansion inevitable. Dublin achieved city status in 1987.
