Popeyes® Introduces Chicken Wraps

June 4, 2025 By Dayton937

Popeyes® is bringing their signature flavor to summer eats with the launch of an all-new category on their menu: Popeyes® Chicken Wraps. Same legendary Louisiana flavor with a whole new twist. Wrapped, packed and made to move with you. Whether you’re cruising through errands, road tripping or hopping between meetings, Popeyes is bringing their signature crunch that you crave in a grab-and-go style that’s big on flavor and easy on the wallet.

For a limited time only, these generously sized Chicken Wraps, are everything you love about Popeyes, now wrapped and ready to roll at participating restaurants nationwide. Each one is packed with a Popeyes hand-breaded and battered chicken tender, crisp lettuce, shredded cheese, crunchy pickles and topped with your choice of a Classic, Spicy or Honey Mustard spread, all tucked into a soft, warm tortilla inspired by our famous biscuits.

The Chicken Wraps are available in three bold variations, for $3.99* each for a whole lot of flavor without breaking the bank.

And because no snack is complete without a sip to match, Popeyes is also dropping a brand-new beverage lineup of Blueberry Lemonade and Teas, just in time to cool things down for summer. Building on the hype of Popeyes viral Pickle Lemonade, this new berry-infused offering includes Blueberry Lemonade (Chilled or Frozen), Blueberry Cane Sweet Tea and Blueberry Unsweet Tea.

“With our new Chicken Wraps, we’ve taken our iconic chicken tenders and wrapped them in something completely new, bringing all that craveable crunch in a fresh, portable way,” said Chef Amy Alarcon, VP of Culinary Innovation at Popeyes. “We wanted to create a Chicken Wrap that was undeniably Popeyes. Infusing the flavors from our famous biscuit into our wraps was the perfect way to ensure our signature flavors shined through.”

Whether you’re heading out for a long weekend or hustling through the weekday grind, Popeyes Chicken Wraps and Blueberry Beverages are snackable, sippable and summer ready. Starting today, June 2, at participating locations nationwide and on the Popeyes app and website while supplies last, they’re here for a good time, not a long time, so get ’em while they’re hot.

The band is currently supporting  Disturbed and will be joining Creed on select 2025 tour dates. Seether is fresh off the release of their ninth studio album, The Surface Seems So Far, which was released in September 2024, and just wrapped up their own spring headline run.

Tickets will go on sale to the public beginning at 10AM on Friday, June 6 atTicketmaster.com and the Rose Music Center Box Office.

June 3, 2025 By Lisa Grigsby

Q+ Youth Center in Dayton is run by a group of volunteers dedicated to providing a safe and inclusive space for Queer Youth to thrive.

Formed in response to the continued rise of youth suicides, specifically amongst queer and trans individuals, the Q+ Youth Center board seeks to create more than a building. The members of the board and volunteers from the community are working towards impactful and lasting change in Ohio that leads to the success and brilliance of our youth.

The Q+ Youth Center Project understands the importance of providing a safe space for 7th-12th grade students who identify as LGBTQIA+. Their mission is to empower, support, and mentor these young individuals by creating an environment where they can freely express themselves without fear of judgment or discrimination.

“I hope no youth has to feel alone like I did while coming into my own being. If we can make a safe space for their growth, it will only make the future brighter. That’s worth supporting.” Michael Green, Digital Marketing Manager, Dayton Contemporary Dance Company

The center’s goal is to fund youth events, mentor programs, and ultimately a brick and mortar facility with a focus on the young minds in the greater Gem city region.

You can help support them by purchasing their merchant  card good at 16 local restaurant/stores. You’ll enjoy discounts to all of your favorite Q+ supporting businesses!  Q+ Discount Card for 2025-2026!! For a $25 donation, you will get discounts ALL YEAR LONG. All donations are matched by the Kawai Family Foundation.

Businesses include: Meadowlark Wheat Penny Old Scratch Pizza Yellow Cab Tavern Michael’s Salon Barrel House Lily’s Blind Bob’s Salt Block Little Fish Brewing Baker Benji Ghostlight Coffee Maraluna Pink Moon Goods Sueno and Power Plant. Printing for the card was donated by Smales Pretzels.

Want to volunteer? The  Q+ Center relies on the kindness of dedicated volunteers. To become a part of the team, fill out the form and one of their core group of volunteers will be in touch with the next opportunity to make a change for our youth.

Burger King Turns 71 and Celebrates with Deals

June 2, 2025 By Lisa Grigsby

Burger King is turning 71. Originally named Instant Burger King, the chain opened in 1954, a year before the first McDonald’s. A burger and milkshake restaurant, BK’s captured burger lovers’ attention in 1957 when it introduced the Whopper (just 37 cents at the time), still a staple on the menu.

In the decades since, it’s introduced countless other products, including breakfast sandwiches, chicken nuggets, chicken fries, wraps, and so much more to go with its fries, onion rings, and desserts—all designed to satisfy taste buds while traditionally offering value and letting guests “have it your way.”

Burger King is celebrating its birthday by giving away free burgers, mozzarella fries, onion rings, and other menu favorites all month long.  To get a new freebie each day, you must be a member of Burger King’s Royal Perks, its rewards program.
Here’s what you can get:

  • June 15: To celebrate father figures on their special day, give the gift of a BOGO Whopper, available all Father’s Day long.

2025 Class of Dayton Walk of Fame Revealed

May 29, 2025 By Dayton937

In a city known for taking flight, five more legendary names are landing in history. For nearly 30 years, the Dayton Region Walk of Fame has etched the names of inventors, artists, civic leaders, and cultural icons into the sidewalks of Dayton’s historic Wright-Dunbar District. Now, five new names are joining the legacy.

2025 Inductees:

Rob Lowe – Raised right here in Dayton, Rob Lowe’s journey from local kid to Hollywood icon is a story of talent and perseverance. From The Outsiders to The West Wing, his career spans generations—and his roots in Dayton remind us that the biggest stars shine brightest when they never forget where they came from.

Vic Cassano Sr. – The king of Dayton-style pizza. With a thin crust, square-cut slice, and entrepreneurial spirit, Vic Cassano turned a grocery store side hustle into a regional empire. Cassano’s Pizza King became the taste of a city and the foundation of a family legacy.

The Original Lakeside – Born and raised in Dayton, The Original Lakeside brought a unique funk and soul sound to the nation that still echoes today. With their hit “Fantastic Voyage,” they captured the spirit of an era—and their vibrant energy, infectious grooves, and style continue to inspire fans and musicians alike.

The Levin Family – Rooted in a courageous journey from Eastern Europe to Dayton, the Levins transformed hardship into hope. Sam Levin, founder of the Levin Family Foundation, helped build a lasting legacy—one that continues today through family members like Karen Lorenz-Levin and Ryan Levin. Together, they uplift underserved communities across Montgomery County.

Jenell Ross – Breaking barriers and building legacy, Jenell Ross is the only second-generation African-American woman auto dealer in the country. As President of Bob Ross Auto Group and a passionate breast cancer advocate, she continues to accelerate change in Dayton and across the industry.

More Than a Sidewalk: A Living Landmark

Stretching down West Third Street in the heart of the Wright-Dunbar District, the Dayton Region Walk of Fame isn’t just a list of names—it’s a walking tour through Dayton’s legacy of invention, artistry, resilience, and heart. From the Wright Brothers and Paul Dunbar to local trailblazers and national legends, it’s a place where past meets present, and where every brick tells a story.

Whether you’re a lifelong Daytonian or just discovering the Gem City for the first time, the Walk of Fame is a reminder that greatness isn’t always found in flashing lights—it’s often right beneath your feet. The 2025 honorees will be formally recognized during a ceremony this fall. But why wait? Ttake a stroll. Snap a photo. Learn something new. And walk where they walked.

The Community’s Voice: DATV at the NATO Parliamentary Assembly

May 28, 2025 By Dayton937

Dayton Public Access Television (DATV), The Community’s Voice, was once again at the forefront of civic engagement during the NATO Parliamentary Assembly, held in Dayton, Ohio, from May 22 to May 26.
From the opening ceremony—featuring Dayton Mayor Jeffery Mims Jr., Representative Mike Turner (lead organizer of the Assembly’s visit), and NATO Parliamentary Assembly Secretary General, Mark Rutte—the event kicked off with a press conference at 3:00 p.m. on May 22. Local, national, and international dignitaries gathered to mark the beginning of this historic summit.

Fox News picked up DATV’s live feed from the Dayton dialogue at the University of Dayton and broadcast it live around the world!!

Throughout the Assembly weekend, DATV played a vital role in documenting the proceedings. Our crews were stationed at all four event venues: the Schuster Center, the Victoria Theatre, CareSource, and the Roger Glass Center at the University of Dayton. Morning and afternoon sessions were recorded at each site, creating a valuable archive of this milestone event for the City of Dayton.
Led by Dale Grow, the team at the Roger Glass Center not only recorded sessions but also livestreamed them via DATV’s Facebook page. These streams were picked up and broadcast by major news outlets including the Atlantic Council, the Associated Press, CNN, CNET, Fox News, and stations across Europe, including in Brussels and Belgium.
DATV—Dayton’s Community Voice—spoke loudly and clearly, not just to our local community, but to the world.
We celebrate and uplift the voices of our community: artists, activists, storytellers, and everyday citizens who make Dayton such an extraordinary place. DATV is more than a TV station—it is a platform for hope, a megaphone for change, and a canvas for creativity.
We invite you to take part in the story, a gift to give, or a voice that deserves to be heard, we’re here to help amplify it. Be part of the voice. Be part of The Community’s Voice.

Mudlick Tap House Is Asking For Support of Downtown Businesses

May 26, 2025 By Guest Contributor

As a local independent restaurant in downtown Dayton, we’ve always taken pride in being part of this community. But this past week—due to the NATO Summit—has been incredibly difficult. Road closures, parking restrictions, and limited access to downtown meant foot traffic disappeared, and like many small businesses around us, we felt the hit.

What made it even harder was the lack of communication and disregard from the City of Dayton. There was little effort to meaningfully include small businesses in the planning or to mitigate the disruption we would face. Decisions were made without us, even though we’ve been showing up for this city every day—paying taxes, employing local workers, and contributing to the culture, economy and vibrancy of the downtown landscape.
IMG_4395
Independent restaurants and shops like ours are part of what makes Dayton special. If you’ve ever shared a meal with us, made memories here, or supported any small downtown businesses—this is the time to show your love. Come downtown. Dine, shop, and help lift up the places that give this city its heartbeat.
Thank you for being part of our story.

Dayton at Work And Play: Deepika Singh

May 26, 2025 By Bill Franz

Conversation with Deepika Singh, co-owner (with her husband Jay) of Gulzar’s Indian Cuisine (across the street from the Dayton Dragons at 217 N. Patterson Blvd).

I love eating at Gulzar’s, and stopped in to check out the restaurant’s new space, which is adjacent to their old space. I asked Deepika how she came to be in the restaurant business.
“My husband Jay and I were both born in India and came here as children. When we married we decided to join Gulzar’s, Jay’s family business. The original Gulzar’s was started in Richmond, Indiana by my husband’s father. He named the restaurant Gulzar’s after his own father’s name. Now Jay’s older brother runs the restaurant in Richmond and we run this place in Dayton.”
“We opened downtown three years ago and are really happy with how well it’s gone. Some people who live or work downtown love Indian food and were glad to have us here. Others are new to this type of food but open to trying new things. We have a buffet for lunch every day so people can try all kinds of food and discover what they like the best.”
“When this space next to us opened up we decided to rent it and to give the restaurant a new look. As we designed this new space we asked our customers for ideas. Martin Pleiss, a customer who works at the Dayton Art Institute was a big help. The restaurant now seats 168, more than twice the seating they had before.”
“My husband and his father are the cooks here. You mentioned that you’ve enjoyed eating here, Bill. The dishes you ate were northern Indian food. In this new space we have a new menu. We’ve added some south Indian items you may want to try.”
I asked Deepika what she did before coming to Gulzar’s. “I was a teacher, and I loved it. I was born to be a teacher, and I feel like I still teach. Teaching is part of running a business.”

Graeter’s Unleashes the Beast Feast!

May 23, 2025 By Lisa Grigsby

Graeter’s Ice Cream has unleashed its latest creation: Beast Feast: Cookie Dough Unleashed.

The limited-time flavor, inspired by Kings Island’s iconic wooden roller coaster, The Beast, debuts today as part of Graeter’s summer Bonus Flavors, the Bake Shop 2025 collection.

The Beast Feast is a thrill ride for your taste buds, featuring monster chunks of sugar cookie dough with colorful rainbow sprinkles swirled into a creamy cookie butter ice cream base.

The flavor is a tribute to the adrenaline-pumping fun of The Beast, which has been thrilling riders since 1979 with its record-breaking 7,361-foot track—more than 1.4 miles long—and a ride time of over four minutes. Kings Island crews recently replaced over 1,600 feet of the coaster’s track, ensuring it remains a legendary experience for years to come.

“This collaboration captures the joy of two Cincinnati icons,” Chip Graeter, fourth-generation owner of Graeter’s Ice Cream said. “It’s cookie dough unleashed, just like the roller coaster itself. You won’t want to miss this one!”

Beast Feast is available for a limited time at Graeter’s scoop shops, by the pint at Graeters.com for nationwide shipping, and by the scoop at Graeter’s location on International Street at Kings Island.

The summer Bonus Flavors lineup also includes Cinnamon Sticky Bun, Blueberry Lemon Crumble, Pineapple Passion Sorbet, Minty Brownie, and Caramel Pecan Cheesecake.
