Disney ticket mix-up

YOUNGSTOWN — Some people who received free vouchers from the Public Library of Youngstown and Mahoning County for Dec. 17’s “Disney on Ice Celebrates 100 Years of Magic” couldn’t redeem them for tickets at the Covelli Centre’s box office. The library has an agreement with the center and Disney to give away the vouchers, about 300 of them, said Janet Loew, library spokeswoman.

Library officials contacted the center and Disney and have been assured the voucher issue is a misunderstanding and the problem will be corrected Monday, Loew said.

Patrons are asked to retain their vouchers and call the library beginning at noon Monday at (330) 744-8636.
