BCAN to premiere new health and wellness show
The host of a new show on Buckeye Community Arts Network wants Toledo to start thinking about the idea of wellness in all aspects of life. “When people think wellness, they’re like, ‘Oh, like yoga ... sitting around, meditating, thinking about the goodness that is life,’ which is amazing and is totally what the show is about, but we also went to look at all encompassing wellness and really ask the burning question of ‘How is our community actively, living, breathing, and being well and how are they promoting wellness for others?’” said Toi Creel, a producer and host for BCAN. Ms. Creel and the network are looking to answer that question in its newest TV show Be Well, which will see her discuss wellness in a holistic sense with each episode — topics like environmental wellness, mental wellness, physical wellness, financial wellness, and community wellness. The show’s first episode, airs Sunday at 8 p.m. on the Health Network, will feature interviews from residents who specialize in different aspects of health. They included Matt Killam, chief outreach officer for Metroparks Toledo, and Isabella Weik, president and chief executive officer of the Toledo Mindfulness Institute.

In the national race, a team in the big new playoff could type “title game” into its GPS and — in theory — take the interstate all the way there, playing a quarterfinal at the Peach Bowl in Atlanta (Exit 249D), a semifinal at the Orange Bowl in Miami (3A), and the final back in the ATL.

Toledo goes all-in on fan experience, builds excitement around football opener
Each spring downtown Toledo is inundated with visitors, as the area around Fifth Third Field overflows with revelers eager to celebrate the return of Mud Hens baseball and spring temperatures and to pay homage to their hometown. The University of Toledo is trying to replicate that energy and community symmetry.

Celebrate that kickoff of football season. Spend that Thursday with us cheering on the Rockets. And then go home and watch another game or 20 other games on your TV like I will Labor Day weekend.” The university has branded next Thursday’s season-opener against Duquense as the “Biggest Party in Toledo.” UT is heavily investing in fan experience, introducing a beer garden, live music, and big-screen TVs in Lot 10 outside the Glass Bowl.
