MASON, OH (FOX19) - Where should you shop once inside the grocery store?  The Mason Community Center is offering to help you find the correct food items to keep you healthy.

You can take a personalized grocery store walk-thru with a registered dietitian on Wednesday, March 14.  The dietician will take a small group through the store to look at labels, pick healthy options, and talk about smart food purchases. During this 90-minute program, you will also learn about MyPlate, the nutrition concept from the USDA that has replaced the Food Pyramid, and be served a lunch to show your balanced plate.

Two sessions will be held at the Biggs store in Mason. You can choose to meet the dietician at either 11 a.m. or noon in the main entrance of the store.

MIDDLETOWN, OH (FOX19) - Nearly $1 million is up for grabs by Middletown area students planning to continue their education from the Middletown Community Foundation, if they act fast. 

One of the largest independent scholarship programs in the state of Ohio, the Middletown Community Foundation administers about $900,000 in scholarship aid annually, Executive Director T. Duane Gordon says. 

For students, the process begins by visiting the Foundation’s website at www.mcfoundation.org for the application materials. More than 100 scholarships are offered, primarily to students at Middletown, Monroe, Madison, Edgewood, Franklin, Bishop Fenwick or Middletown Christian high schools, but a handful of the scholarships also accept applications from students attending schools further away, including Preble and Montgomery counties. 

Completed applications must be returned to the Foundation no later than 5 p.m.

MASON, OH (FOX19)- The Ohio State Highway Patrol is currently investigating a crash involving four vehicles, including an over-turned tractor trailer, that closed northbound I-71 just before the Mason-Montgomery Road late exit for a couple hours on Monday.

The patrol says its preliminary investigation revealed that Michael Fortine, 27, of Maineville, was operating a 1998 Mercury Mystique northbound on Interstate 71, and failed to maintain assured clear distance ahead, striking a 2004 Toyota Matrix from behind that was operated by Clayton Kuhnell, 66, of Cincinnati.
