MANSFIELD, Ohio – For the second year in a row, Richland Source, your local McDonald’s, and Heart of Ohio magazine have partnered to make June “Lovin’ It LOCAL” month in Richland, Ashland, and Crawford Counties.

We are celebrating how the word “local” can apply to a huge brand like McDonald’s, right alongside slightly smaller brands like Richland Source and Heart of Ohio. Did you know that one Richland County family owns nine area McDonald’s and employees nearly 500 people? That’s a local business.

And because a celebration needs people and prizes, we need you to help us celebrate “Lovin’ It LOCAL” month. Here’s how:

  • Stop in at your local McDonald’s and take advantage of the free Wi-Fi to browse the web while you eat.

  • While you’re there (or right now!) enter to win a $10 McDonald’s Arch Card. We’re giving away 60 of these and there will be two winners every day. 

  • Next, take advantage of a special subscription offer from Heart of Ohio Magazine that includes two bonus issues.

  • Finally, be part of the conversation. Tweet, Instagram, and Facebook all the reasons you are “Lovin’ It LOCAL” using the hashtag #lovinitlocal. Richland Source will collect them in  a gallery that we’ll publish throughout the month.

Everyone at Richland Source is incredibly excited to link up with McDonald’s and Heart of Ohio to celebrate the best of North Central Ohio.

We hope you’ll join us, because when you are “Lovin’ It LOCAL,” you are keeping your heart in the right place.

Cheers,

Jay
