Long time community leader and activist Marilyn Welker will step aside on June 30th as Executive Director of Simply Living, an organization she founded in 1992 and has directed for 9 years.

A celebration honoring her at a Simply Living signature potluck dinner will be held on Thursday, June 30th from 5-8 pm at the Whetstone Shelterhouse, Whetstone Park of Roses, 3901 North High Street. All are invited to join in this opportunity to recognize Marilyn’s and Simply Living’s visionary work which has had a transformative impact on the central Ohio community.

The Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT) has proposed changes to the guidelines for the rating of the largest transportation projects it will fund. A few changes in these recommendations further erode opportunities for non-road and highway projects to be funded.

Join Simply Living as we celebrate Earth Day 2011: Lighten Up. Simply Living is hosting a worksite again in the university neighborhood, with Maynard Ave. Church being the check-in place (2350 Indianola Ave). Work days are scheduled throughout Franklin County on both Saturday and Sunday, April 16 & 17, and we will work from 8 a.m. to noon on Sat., April 16th. We'll beautify the small city park at Summit and Maynard Ave. and scour the neighborhood with trash bags and visions of a litter-free neighborhood.
