AKRON , Ohio — The month of June was a difficult time for the city of Akron after a mass shooting that left one dead and 29 wounded—an incident that saw Juneteenth celebrations, concerts at Lock 3 and other events canceled. But with a new month comes new events, including the Rib White and Blue Festival Downtown.
The event, which kicked off Wednesday and runs from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. through Saturday, saw crowds out to Main Street Downtown for some good food and festivities. For many in Akron, the rib burnoff is something to look forward to every year and has become a tradition.
