Painting the town purple

Ohio City Relay for Life Team painted “the little town with a big heart” purple this past week (above and below). Village residents gathered a couple of nights last week and worked together as a team to paint the town purple. The village team will also be set up at the main event tonight, along with all of the other teams, as the 2016 Relay for Life gets underway at 5 p.m. at the Van Wert County Fairgrounds.
