Good morning, Hamilton.

A Butler County father is honoring his late daughter lost to SIDS by sharing kind deeds around town — he hopes his tribute inspires others to show compassion.

Memorial Day events honor veterans across the Tri-State with Hamilton’s Memorial Day ceremony and parade at Greenwood Cemetery on Monday, May 25 at 10 a.m. Other communities host ceremonies, concerts, and tributes to remember local heroes.

After a mobile home fire in St. Clair Township struck just before 9 p.m. Monday, a family of five got out safely but lost their home and belongings and are now staying in a hotel while they look for a new place to live.

Hamilton County Commissioners will vote today on two projects at Paycor Stadium and Great American Ball Park.

The upgrades include a $14.5 million project for new escalators and an expanded scoreboard at Paycor, while nearly $1 million will fund an assessment by local architects (MSA Sport) at the ballpark starting at 10 a.m.

Local cooks in Hamilton can ready their grills for summer by cleaning grates and checking heat, plus testing three new recipes featuring grilled eggplant with tomato sauce, Indian-inspired chicken, and shrimp with a lime-green sauce.

These ideas help families get set for a safe, tasty barbecue season.
