YOUNGSTOWN

PALO Creative is leveraging a comprehensive blend of new and traditional media as it puts together a regional marketing campaign for the Youngstown-Warren Regional Airport’s new daily service to Chicago O’Hare International Airport.

Because of the wide audience the campaign intends to reach, it was necessary for PALO to incorporate new media along with more traditional media.

Print, billboard, online, radio and television advertising for the campaign will launch this month.

BWC maintenance

COLUMBUS

The Ohio Bureau of Workers’ Compensation will be conducting routine maintenance that will impact phone, email and Internet services Saturday.

All BWC computer services throughout the state, including phones, will be unavailable during this time. BWC’s website, bwc.ohio.gov, will not be accessible, nor will the automated phone service via 800-466-6292.

On the day of the shutdown, callers to all BWC phone lines will receive a busy signal. The website will display a static page of information explaining the outage, and there will be no access to any of the sites’ functionality.

All systems will be up and running by the start of business Monday.

Military discount

DETROIT

Through May 31, Chevrolet, Buick and GMC will expand their military-discount programs for all 21 million U.S. military veterans and their spouses in honor of National Military Appreciation Month.

The program typically is available to U.S. military veterans within one year of separation, active-duty personnel, reservists, retirees and their spouses. In honor of May’s National Military Appreciation Month, the program expands to include all veterans – regardless of their separation date – and their spouses.

The discount is available for popular models, including the all-new Chevrolet Malibu, GMC Sierra and Buick Encore. Because the discount can be combined with most-current incentives, veterans could save thousands of dollars on some vehicles. For details, visit gmmilitarydiscount.com.
