It is "Beat Michigan" week, and the Lima Buckeyes had a few extra activities that they could take part in to get them pumped up before the game. Students could make a button or magnet to show their Ohio State spirit or maybe even a bracelet or necklace. Some even tried their hand at paper football, as a warm-up before the Buckeye face that team up north.

Thursday, the Allen County Sanitary Engineers office presented 114 of 146 permanent easement agreements needed for the project to the Allen County Commissioners. These easements will allow pump stations to be installed on individual properties. The 3.4-million-dollar project is being funded in part by the United States Department of Agriculture, Community Development Block Grant funds, and several other sources. The project has been on the drawing board for more than 5 years.

Locally, there are many stations that are under the two-dollar mark. Petroleum experts say the reason for the drop is because refineries are back to work after Hurricane Laura and this summer has been good at the pump. They say this has been the most stable and had the lowest gas prices between Memorial Day and Labor Day in 16 years. With refineries switching to the cheaper winter blend in the next couple of weeks, GasBuddy says the prices will continue to drop going into the fall.

You've been warned, between now and Memorial Day the more driving you will be doing, the lighter your wallet will feel.
