Meet Patchiversary Winner Josh Zucker!

He's new in town and is using Avon Patch to learn about Avon.

A big welcome to one of Avon's newest residents, and Avon Patch's newest fan, Josh Zucker!

Zucker won the $25 gift card at last week's event. 

Zucker moved to Avon in December after graduating with a degree in finance from Bowling Green State University. His girlfriend, Hannah Simon, works in Elyria.

He and Simon have come to enjoy Avon as they have settled in.

"It's great," Zucker said of Avon. "Everything you need is just a mile away, it seems."

He and Simon have gotten involved in volunteer work with Friendship APL, fostering dogs and adopting a cat.

And, after learning about Avon Patch at the Patchiversary, Zucker is using it to find out more about his new town.

Zucker likes that volunteering opportunities are published, and the events listings. He's also thinking about blogging.

Thanks again to the awesome 'Bou Bunch for all their help!
