Northwest Ohio

Like, way Northwest Ohio. The television commercials were advertising Detroit furniture companies. The radio stations were all centered in Fort Wayne, Indiana.

Thankfully, Ohio is Ohio is Ohio and as long as you have that Oh-Aitch in your address, we can do your taxes. Enrollment Specialist Jerry Lee and I made the trip to Paulding and Williams Counties and helped over two dozen families complete their taxes completely free of charge.

And, as usual, we couldn't have done it without the help of the VISTAs from the area who took appointments, made scheduling arrangements, and even brought us pizza before our four hour drive back to Columbus. (Thankfully, the ride home did include a stop on my hometown drag: The Grand Army of the Republic Highway...Exit 8, represent!).

In other good news, the van is back in a big way. Mobile Enrollment Specialist and co-author of this site) Erin Sprouse traveled to Mount Gilead with our Central Regional Coordinator, Zach Reat. It took some digging to get it out of the snow, but the event was another success.

As I write this now, the weather is looking awfully intimidating, so the Mobile Express may need to stay in park for a few more days, but with another trip to Northwest Ohio on our docket, we anticipate another successful event this weekend.
