Looking for inexpensive or donation-based church/event halls around Dayton (15–20 min radius)

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone!
I’m looking for places similar to St. Peter’s Reis Hall in Huber Heights, where parish members can use the hall for free (or very cheaply) and only need to purchase event insurance.
Does anyone know of other churches, parish halls, fellowship halls, or community organizations around the Dayton area that have a similar policy?
I’m open to places in:
Dayton
Huber Heights
Vandalia
Englewood
Tipp City
Kettering
Beavercreek
Centerville
Riverside
Anywhere within about a 15–20 minute drive
We’re planning a family 50th birthday celebration (around 100–150 guests), so we’re trying to avoid spending thousands on a banquet hall. We’d be happy to make a donation, become members if required, or pay a small rental/cleaning fee.
If you know of any Catholic churches, other churches with fellowship halls, VFWs, American Legions, community centers, or nonprofits that are affordable, I’d really appreciate any recommendations!

Best golf course around downtown Dayton

5 Upvotes

I am new to the area and am looking for a good place to regularly golf. I have usually just gone to municipal courses so I am wondering what are the best ones close to me! I am downtown but I don’t mind driving 15-20 mins. I am also open to some private courses if they aren’t crazy expensive. I have played Meadowbrook in trotwood and cassel hills in Vandalia and like them both. Let me know your best suggestions! TIA

Scheduling DriveSmart Behind-the-Wheel Lessons

2 Upvotes

Hi. I am wondering if anyone has experience with DriveSmart online schedules for behind-the-wheel lessons. I saw on the website said that drives rides are being added every day, but when I tried registered for classes in both July and August, all I could see was classes are already full or not available. I did try reaching out to the service center through emails and phone numbers, but nothing worked. I am quite confused about their schedules. Does anyone know when they usually put the available dates up?

Advice & Recommendations Physicians networks for OB/GYN and general practitioner

10 Upvotes

Moving back to the area and haven’t lived here in over eleven years. Need recommendations for physicians networks that have both doctors for personal care physicians and ob/gyn.

This is a MUST: my ob-gyn must be pro-choice and believe in the use of birth control. I have searched on this subreddit and was astounded to hear horror stories of women experiencing birth control shaming from their OBs.

Thank you in advance!!!

Advice & Recommendations Need house cleaner recommendations (big messes, not just routine tidying)

13 Upvotes

Created a separate account because I'm embarrassed to have to post this, but here we are.

Please keep any judgment to yourself - I promise I've beat myself up over this more than enough already without anyone's negative input. The last couple years have been rough on the mental health front, and even before that I was never very good at keeping a tidy living space. I'm getting on top of the mental health side of things, but I'm accepting that I realistically am going to need help to get my house to a reasonable level of cleanliness.

Does anyone know of a cleaning service that is up to helping someone handle both significant clutter as well as some of the grosser cleaning stuff?

Bonus points if they can also help with coming up with organizational strategies for helping keep things clean afterwards, but I think that's usually a separate kind of service (I will also take recommendations for professional organizers for that part of things if you've got them).

Local Events Palefest at Land of Illusion- looking for Bootsy Collins

5 Upvotes

Hello all

I am trying to find out if there’s some kind of schedule or order of events for Palefest at Land of Illusion this weekend. I bought tickets solely to meet Bootsy Collins and while I will probably go both days just for fun, I am a mega fan of his and need to know when the meet and greet is. All the websites are useless. Can anybody help this Funkateer?

Many thanks in advance and may the Funk be with you.

Avoid Apex Pros for Electrical Work

22 Upvotes

So, I bought a house recently, and as part of the sale the electrical panels needed updated (2 old panels that were definite fire hazards).

TLDR: The work failed the city inspection, but Apex is refusing to complete the work appropriately without more money.

Below is my google review.

I purchased a house this spring, as part of the condition of sale the 2 outdated electrical panels needed replaced and gfci outlets put near water sources. Then during appraisal it was found the outside line coming in needed updated due to deterioration. My electrician quoted 4k, but the listing agent contracted Apex Pros instead. The work was done April 28 & May 4, my closing was May 6th. (I requested constantly the results of the city inspection for my records but didn't receive that until much later, but that's a separate issue). The permit for the work was supposedly in Apex's system on May 21, 2026 but the city didn't receive the submission until June 1. The inspection was on June 3, 2026.
The panel work and outside line all failed on 7 points.
They didn't label the panels, they didn't ground the electrical work, they didn't include an external emergency disconnection, they attached too small a wire to too large a breaker (10 amp to 40/50 breakers).
I waited 1 week for someone to reach out to me to schedule remediation. After 1 week of no contact, I called several times to reach a supervisor about the issue. I reached out to customer service, customer advocate, requested a supervisor. Finally on 6/12 I was told by the customer advocate that management had determined they only "failed" the emergency disconnect. And scheduled someone to come out on 6/15. I made sure they had my contact information from all the reachouts I had made. 6/15 no call but the same technician who did the initial work came at 10:24am (8-1 timeframe) and only replaced the outside connection to include an emergency disconnect. Still no labeling of panels or correction of other fail points. Finished around 3:30pm and left.
6/16 - finally got a response to my request for a supervisor and scheduled for one on 6/17
6/17 - The Quality Control Manager came out and documented the work. Assured me the work would be fixed as my request is that the house be safe! Currently if I were to use the stove and washing machine at the same time I could trip a breaker.
Originally the same technician was to come out on 6/22 with a supervisor but due to weather we had to reschedule to 6/23.
6/23 - no call to me they showed up at 12:45pm (8-1 window)
They again changed the external line. During their time here, the technician was verbally down playing what needed done, "Oh just change this and some minor things. I don't know why we need to do this" Questioning the reasoning behind the quality control manager's requests. I gave him the QM's phone number so he could call and get clarification. They finished/left around 4:45pm, but had not completed the grounding work. He did finally label most of the panels (but not all the connections) and he never did locate which breaker my kitchen ceiling fan was on. I did not receive a list of things they were to do to my property. I was hoping to receive one and even reached out requesting one, so I could ensure the technician did everything. They were scheduled to return on 6/26 to complete the grounding of my electrical system. I received an email this morning(6/26) at 7:51 am stating that they had reached out to the seller for payment for the additional work they needed to do to remediate the failed work they had done, but that they couldn't reach her. So they were pulling the permit and ceasing the work. In essence refusing to move forward with the remaining action items which included grounding the electrical. So they want to charge extra to complete the work they initially did that failed the city inspection and left me with an unsafe house. I will NEVER recommend this company for work. Additionally they charged for 4 GFCI outlets but only installed 3.

7/22/26 In addition: I recently had a new AC unit installed as my old one died. When the technician (from a different company of course) came to turn off the AC, the breaker marked AIR did not turn off the unit. He had to figure out which one was the correct breaker and then label it as it was unlabeled.

Then recently in response to my BBB complaint they showed a picture of the "inspection report" with hand written "fixed" next to each item to prove it was done, except for the outside grounding rod. Except one of the items they labeled as completed was a hot cold bonding, which is located inside my house in a utility closet, and they NEVER entered that area. They only worked outside at the incoming line and spent a tiny amount of time at one of the panels, I assume to label it incorrectly. So I responded that how did they complete that item as they never entered the utility closet, as I was present during the work.

Unethical, poor work, leaving trash on my roof. Also in the end, charging the seller of the house DOUBLE what my electrician would have charged. I'm in constant contact with the seller and she is so upset. We're trying to work through the realtors to get everything resolved.

Housing recommendations-moving from out of state

5 Upvotes

Hello!

I'll be relocating from CA to Dayton, OH for a year long internship at a ER & specialty hospital. I was wondering if anyone could recommend me some areas to look for housing?

I'm looking for a studio/1bedroom that would be within 20 minutes from the hospital (Moraine, OH) with a budget of $1000-1500 a month.

I'm also going to be completely new to the area and would like to what places would have best access to groceries (trader joes, aldis, Costco etc.) And what places to generally avoid as a POC woman.

Thank you!!
