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.

They included Matt Killam, chief outreach officer for Metroparks Toledo, and Isabella Weik, president and chief executive officer of the Toledo Mindfulness Institute.

There may be no ‘I’ in team, but there is one in championship, especially when it comes to the path there this season. I-75 is college football’s glory road. 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. And in the Mid-American Conference …
Toledo goes all-in on fan experience, builds excitement around football opener
