Glier's Goettafest begins Thursday

A 22-year tradition will return to the banks of the Ohio River at the end of July to celebrate one of the Greater Cincinnati region's culinary staples — and no, it's not the chili. Glier's Goettafest will return to Newport for two weekends: July 27-30 and August 3-6. This is the second year the festival has expanded to encompass more than one weekend.
