MEDINA – Mile 303 will again host a ball drop on New year’s Eve on Main Street in Medina.

Mile 303 started the ball drop to ring in year 2019. The restaurant and bar at 416 Main St. will open at 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday for a New Year’s Eve Party to culminate with the ball drop at midnight.

The Medina Village Board agreed to close off part of Main Street for the event. Police Chief Todd Draper said there hasn’t been any unruly behavior with past ball drop celebrations. He pushed to have the street closed so people can safely gather and mingle on Main Street to celebrate the start of a new year.
