Author Talks About the Environmental Aspects of Draining the Great Black Swamp

Sun 11/15 @ 1-2PM There’s something fascinating about the idea of the Great Black Swamp, which once covered millions of acres Northwest Ohio, Northeast Indiana and Southeast Michigan. The ice age-created ecosystem, which featured a mix of wetlands, forests and meadows, existed for 20,000 years until it was dredged and drained in the 19th century to create the farmland that underpinned the wealth of Ohio. Close your eyes and imagine what it was like hundreds of years ago: no roads, no housing developments, no shopping centers, no petrochemical plants on Navarre Road near Toledo, no terrible country and religious radio stations …

Toledo trailblazer Louis Escobar to be honored with historical marker

Louis Escobar, who became the first openly gay man and first Latino elected to Toledo City Council and later served as its president, will be honored at a ceremony Tuesday at One Government Center. Mr. Escobar, who died in 2020 at age 70, was a boundary-breaking, bridge-building civic leader who left a lasting mark on the Toledo community, those who knew him say. The historical marker designation ceremony will be hosted by Councilman Nick Komives, with a reception to follow. “He was quite a gregarious fellow, with quite a story to him,” Mr. Komives said. “He started out in faith communities, focusing on helping people through their faith journeys, and went on to be a civic leader who was very well-respected and well-liked, and his focus was on the things that people really need, and on those who most need them.” Before serving in elected office, Mr. Escobar was ordained into the priesthood in 1976 and served at St. Joseph in Tiffin, St. Agnes in Toledo, and St. Joseph in Maumee. He also taught at Central Catholic and Tiffin Calvert high schools. After leaving the priesthood, Mr. Escobar worked in the criminal justice system as a counselor and probation officer.

2026 Week 10 scouting report: Toledo football vs. Massachusetts

College football teams often develop their identity around an explosive offense, a physical defense, or a dominant running game. For Toledo, however, the path to victory has looked different almost every week and Wednesday’s game at Sacramento State was much the same as the Rockets snuck past the Hornets on the road, 20-17. “We needed 600 yards and 45 points to beat Western Michigan, and on Wednesday we needed a couple of big defensive stops, and we got just enough to win,” Toledo head coach Mike Jacobs said. With every weeknight MACtion game except one being decided by one score so far this season, the Rockets (7-2, 4-1 Mid-American Conference) will be tested again when they take on Massachusetts (5-4, 2-3 MAC) on Wednesday. Sophomore cornerback Israel Petite said coming off of a gritty win that came down to the wire will only help the defense as a whole remain poised if a similar situation presents itself against the Minutemen. “It gives us a lot of confidence because we’ve been in those situations many times,” Petite said. “We practice all different situations whether it be first down, second down, third downs, fourth downs, or two minutes, so especially in games,

Welcome Christmas: Bay View Yacht Club headlines The Blade's 39th Holiday Parade

This year’s Blade Holiday Parade will feature a different type of grand marshal with the Bay View Yacht Club receiving the honor. Heather Pacheco, The Blade’s associate director of events, said the Point Place-based boating organization has been an avid supporter of the holiday parade for years and organizers wanted to give them some recognition. “This is, I believe, their 14th year,” Ms. Pacheco said. “They put on a huge presentation with their Whoville float and everyone dresses the part of Dr. Seuss. They raise money throughout the year to hand out Dr. Seuss books to all the attendees and all the kids that come out. It is a really great, interactive way for them to be a part of the community.” Ms. Pacheco acknowledged how rare it is to choose a group to be the grand marshal of the parade, which occurs Saturday. Previous years have seen in the role Broadway couple Libby Servais and Stephan Stubbins, chef and restaurateur Kengo Kato, and the combination of Earl Mack, Jr., and Charles Heiser in 2023 when the event fell on Veterans Day. “We just felt they did such a good job as a community partner,” Ms. Pacheco said of Bay
