Dear Stow Residents,

As November arrives, our community spirit continues to shine brighter than ever! This month offers many ways to come together, give back, and celebrate all that makes Stow special.

Our Stuff the Ambulance – Stow’s Helping Hands food drive is underway, and I encourage everyone to participate. Your donations directly support local food pantries, helping neighbors in need during the holiday season. Even a small contribution can make a big difference! Read more here for locations to drop off food and necessities and how to receive assistance.

Mark your calendars for one of our most anticipated traditions—Glow with Stow: Holiday Lighting Celebration on Sat., December 6 from 5:30-8:30 PM at Stow City Center. Bring your family and friends to enjoy the lights, music, festive activities, food trucks, and the magic of the season. Glow with Stow Information.

If you enjoy crafting, the Warm Up America initiative is another wonderful way to give back. The Stow Arts Commission invites volunteers to help crochet or knit a 7” x 9” rectangular section, which will be combined with others to create blankets for those in need this winter—no experience necessary! Warm Up America Information.

Finally, as autumn leaves blanket our yards, the Leaf Pick-Up Program is in full swing. Please visit our website for schedules and guidelines to help keep our streets clean and our neighborhoods beautiful.

Thank you for being part of what makes Stow such a caring and connected community. I wish you all a warm and wonderful November!

With Gratitude,

John Pribonic
Mayor, City of Stow
