Capriotti’s Opens Austintown Spot as Dayton Foundations Plan Relocations

Business updates across several communities include Capriotti’s opening a new Austintown restaurant, expanding its Mahoning Valley presence, while the Youngstown/Warren Regional Chamber plans its annual elected-officials gathering, where Ohio Lt. Gov. Jim Tressel will receive an award. In Skagit County, the chamber hired Heather Bicksler to oversee marketing communications and Visitor Center operations, and the Economic Development Alliance is seeking advertisers for its 2027 business guide. In Dayton, the Louise Kramer Foundation joined The Dayton Foundation while retaining an advisory committee to recommend grants. The Charles F. Kettering Foundation also bought the Waitman Building and plans to move its headquarters to downtown Dayton by fall 2028.
