80-bed recovery center closes at Massillon health hub after 8 months
MASSILLON – A drug and alcohol recovery center operated by Ohio Valley Physicians Health has closed after about nine months inside a revamped health hub. The 80-bed addiction recovery facility opened in February at the Massillon Community Health & Innovation Center , 870 Amherst Road NE, which is the former site of Affinity Medical Center. It shut its doors on Oct. 16 due to apparent medical reimbursement shortfalls. Chris Zimmerman, chief executive officer of Massillon Community Health, said he's working on "a viable replacement" to occupy the former recovery center's space, adding that the process has been encouraging. A phone message left with a representative from OVP on Oct. 28 was not immediately returned. The recovery center was expected to bring in dozens of long-term jobs to Massillon, said Jackie Rebman, director of inpatient behavioral health for OVP, told The Independent in late February. Between $500,000 and $1 million of renovations had been made in preparation for the two-floor, rehab center in early 2026.

5 Best Restaurants in Canton, Ohio You Need to Try Before Everyone Else Finds Them
Canton, Ohio — a city where the echoes of industry mingle with the laughter of families on porch swings, where the spires of old churches rise above brick streets, and where every block hums with the stories of those who built, dreamed, and stayed. Here, the city’s heart beats in the rhythm of Friday night football, the sizzle of sausage at the Italian Fest, and the hush of snow falling on the Hall of Fame. Canton is a crossroads — of old-timers and newcomers, of artists and laborers, of families who’ve called it home for generations and those just arriving, hungry for possibility.

Dalton's Silver Linden Park expands with new land and amenities
Silver Linden Park in Dalton now spans 7 acres, giving the community expanded walking paths, a pond, chapel, pavilions and playgrounds. The park marked its new beginning with a ribbon-cutting ceremony Oct. 27, according to a community announcement. Karen Potter, president of the Silver Linden Park Board, welcomed those attending the ceremony and shared the history of the park. The park, previously known as P. Graham Dunn Park, began in 2022 when Peter and LeAnna Dunn, founders of the P. Graham Dunn store, constructed and donated a 4.3-acre park for community use. The park was established as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit and included four White Oak timber-framed pavilions with tables, benches and lampposts, two playgrounds, more than 200 trees and a quarter-mile concrete walking path. In 2024, the Robert L. and Kathleen M. Polsky Foundation Community Fund, an unrestricted fund at the Wayne County Community Foundation, provided a $10,000 grant to purchase and plant 64 additional trees. Donation expands park to 7 acres ProVia, a manufacturer of doors, windows, siding, stone and roofing, purchased the former P. Graham Dunn manufacturing building in 2025. The property included a pond and chapel next to Silver Linden Park. In July, ProVia donated 2.7 acres
