The Steubenville-Weirton Amateur Radio Club will host its annual Field Day event on June 28 from 2 p. m. to 8 p. m. at Friendship Park, inviting the public to observe local operators as they set up communication equipment.

This event allows participants to connect with fellow radio enthusiasts across the U. S. and Canada. In addition, a rally for the national "Day of Visibility" is planned for June 14, from 11:30 a. m.

to 1 p. m. at the green space along the Steubenville City Building, emphasizing a peaceful and non-partisan message. The rally will recognize military personnel, first responders, teachers, and union members for their contributions to the community. On a different note, the City of Steubenville is set to start a resurfacing project for south end streets on Thursday, which will last for two weeks.

This project, in conjunction with water line replacement, will involve the removal of existing asphalt and installation of a new surface on several streets, including Sinclair Avenue and Lincoln Avenue. Residents should be aware that parking will be prohibited at least one day in advance of work on each street, with vehicles left behind subject to towing. These events highlight community engagement and infrastructure improvements in the area.
