Mahoning Valley businessman Bruce Zoldan has been invited to host an inauguration party for President- elect Donald Trump, Vindicator broadcast partner 21 WFMJ-TV reported Monday.

After the Jan. 20 inauguration, Zoldan, the CEO and president of Phantom Fireworks, will host an inauguration party at Trump’s transition team’s request, according to the TV station broacast.

Also invited to take part in the festivities are Cleveland Browns Hall of Fame member Jim Brown and former San Francisco 49ers owner Eddie DeBartolo Jr., who was enshrined in the hall of fame last year.

Seeking position

CANFIELD

A vocal critic of Mill Creek MetroParks leaders has applied to fill one of two expired park board seats.

Bill Adams of Austintown sent a letter Saturday to apply for one of the positions that Mahoning County Probate Judge Robert N. Rusu Jr., the appointing authority for the MetroParks board, is tasked with filling.

The judge must either reappoint to three-year terms park commissioners Robert Durick and Germaine Bennett, or select two new commissioners. Durick and Bennett’s terms expired Dec. 31. The judge has said he likely will announce his decision later this week.

In his letter, Adams, who was involved in the movement that opposed park leaders’ implementation of position eliminations last year, said he would “work for as much public transparency and public input in park operations as possible.”
