WORTHINGTON Strike up the band!
The “Amazing” Worthington City Band, which had a shorter season and limited participation in 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, will return at full strength with a summer concert series that starts with the traditional Memorial Day opener.
One thing will be different, though the venue.
Due to planned work throughout the summer in Chautauqua Park, the city band will perform in another one of Worthington’s well-loved sites along Lake Okabena Centennial Park.

WORTHINGTON The Worthington City Council approved Monday night a professional services work order to update the Worthington Municipal Airport master plan, an effort that will likely be funded by the Federal Aviation Administration.
Director of Public Works Todd Wietzema said a master services agreement was approved with Bolton and Menk nearly two years ago for identified airport projects. The firm subsequently proposed an update to the airport master plan, as the most recent major planning study for the airport was completed in 2003. Since then, the airport has made numerous improvements and the FAA has revised its planning policies.

Parks have long been one of this community s most visible amenities, and there has been multiple investments made to enhance these spaces over the course of the year.
These projects represent Phase One of the total local option sales tax projects approved by city voters in November 2018. Here s a short rundown of some of the Worthington parks and improvements they ve received:
BUSS FIELD: A new restroom building was constructed near the parking lot.
CENTENNIAL PARK: A new shelter house nearly identical to the old structure, with its architecture complementing the new Beach Nook building, has gone up. New playground equipment has been added at the park, complete with a replaced safety surface. Trail work in the vicinity of the Beach Nook has also been done.
