In other Summit news, the station has a new partner in its Marilyn Stroud Music Alive Program: Milvet Guitar Repair, a locally owned Akron business. Milvet will handle guitar and stringed instrument repairs for the program, which gives gently used instruments a second life, and those instruments are placed directly into the hands of students at area schools. Milvet is already working on over 30 instruments that will be distributed this spring.
