🏡 Welcome to Issue #15 Rising Sun Newsletter
Hello Rising Sun!
Here’s what’s happening this week around town.
Summer Begins Along the River in Rising Sun
Memorial Day weekend marked the unofficial start of summer as warmer evenings, riverfront walks, and vacation season begin settling into the community.
Along the Ohio River, residents are spending more time outdoors enjoying the scenic waterfront views, and peaceful pace that make this time of year special.
From quiet evenings along the waterfront to the colorful painted riverfront steps downtown, the season is a reminder to slow down and enjoy the simple moments of summer.
