If you’ve got kids, grandkids, or just a soft spot for Disney magic, mark your calendar. Disney On Ice: Mickey’s Search Party is hitting the Covelli Centre January 2–4. It’s one of those shows that fills the whole arena with wide-eyed smiles — the good kind of Youngstown winter tradition.

Show Dates

January 2, 3, and 4 — multiple showtimes each day.

How to Get Tickets

Tickets are available directly through the Covelli Centre’s website.

👉 Visit: covellicentre.com/events

👉 Search “Disney On Ice” and select your date.

If you plan on going, grab seats early — these shows usually sell out fast around here.

Have you taken a moment lately to thank the people who make your business possible?

This season is the perfect reminder that showing appreciation isn’t just good manners- it builds lasting relationships. We recently attended a client appreciation event hosted by Tibitha Matheney of Century 21 Lakeside Realty at Camelot Lanes, and it was the perfect example of how meaningful connection can look. Guests got to relax, bowl, and enjoy quality time with their families while Tibitha personally greeted each of her home buyers to thank them for trusting her with one of life’s biggest milestones.

The afternoon was a thoughtful way to say “thank you” to her valued clients. If you’re looking for a casual and fun spot for a Christmas party or client appreciation event, Camelot Lanes really does a great job of creating a warm, stress-free atmosphere for both hosts and guests.

And if you want a realtor that will treat you like you’re family, Tibitha is that realtor.

That leverage could mean being prepared or knowing someone to call when the best laid plans don’t pan out.

In this town, the people who stay ahead aren’t the ones who hope their furnace holds out or pray the hot water comes back.

They’re the ones who control the outcome before chaos shows up.

1-800-Plumber + Air is your strategic advantage.

The team you call when you refuse to let a small problem turn into a full-blown disaster that drains your time, your wallet, and your sanity.

Fast response.

Fair pricing.

Work done right the first time — because power belongs to the prepared.

If you want your home running like a well-ruled kingdom, here’s your move:

Call 330-234-9402

Secure your house. And never let a surprise leak dictate your day.

Some looks don’t ask for attention… they naturally draw it in.

A quiet elegance. A softness that lingers.

A presence that feels effortless but unforgettable.
That’s what the right lashes do.

They refine the way you move through the world — smoother conversations, warmer smiles, doors that open a little easier.

Not because you changed who you are, but because your confidence walks in first.

At Tallman Makeovers, every lash set is created for someone who understands the art of presenting herself with intention.

A gentle enhancement that makes every day feel a little more aligned, a little more graceful, a little more you.

If you’re ready to step into that feeling, this offer is yours to claim.

There’s nothing like opening the mailbox in December and finding a real Christmas card — not a bill, not a flyer, but a little reminder that someone thought of you.

In a world of quick texts and buried notifications, a handwritten card says, “You still matter to me.”

George’s Christmas Cards bring that magic back. Each one features beautiful artwork by Niles local John Johnson — scenes that feel like Christmas morning when you were a kid.

Send a card, make someone smile, and bring back the warmth we all miss.

Shop George’s Christmas Cards — one envelope, endless nostalgia.

Book a ride to the airport or get the gang together for wineries, breweries, holiday concerts and lights.

If your kids have great-condition toys or electronics they’ve outgrown, pass them on and help another Youngstown area family make the season brighter.
