Good morning, Dayton!
Here’s Your Daily Dose of Dayton
Did you know…Dayton's Sun Watch Indian Village is a reconstructed 800-year-old Fort Ancient Native American settlement and one of the best-preserved prehistoric sites in the entire Midwest, offering visitors a rare look at life along the Great Miami River long before European settlers arrived.
The inside track on local happenings:
Snag a free Skyline cheese coney on Opening Day, dine-in only.
First Four has hit Dayton, and downtown is buzzing with visitors, energy, and packed restaurants.
From British scones to butter chicken burritos, three under-the-radar spots are calling your name.

Angelina came home from a three day family trip to find sewage rising out of her basement into her shower and toilet. Four to five inches of it.
She called Advantage Plumbing Heating & Air. Dustin and Ramsey showed up, diagnosed the problem, snaked the drain and the foundation line, and walked her through everything they were doing step by step. She now requests those two technicians by name every time she calls.
That's who you're dealing with.
Right now Advantage is offering $89 drain clearing with a one year guarantee. Every job includes a free camera inspection of your pipes so you know exactly what you're dealing with. If they find something, you get an honest estimate. No pressure, no obligation.
A slow drain won't fix itself. The longer you wait, the worse it gets.
4.8 stars. 918 Dayton reviews. Limited to the first 15 bookings.

Home-Cooked Support Is Building More Than Houses in Dayton

In Dayton, local chefs and volunteers are stepping up in a meaningful way through the Miami Valley Meals program, supporting families partnered with Habitat for Humanity of Greater Dayton as they work toward homeownership. The initiative brings freshly prepared meals directly to build sites, helping ease the physical and financial strain on homeowners who are putting in long hours to complete their required “sweat equity.” Organizers say the program has grown through community partnerships with area chefs and volunteers who donate their time, ingredients, and culinary skills to keep families fueled during construction. Habitat leaders highlight that this support not only nourishes families but also strengthens connections between local businesses and the neighborhoods they serve. As the program continues, it’s becoming another example of how Dayton’s community spirit shows up in practical, heartfelt ways that help neighbors build brighter futures together.
