Haunted Halls 2025 Delivers Fun, Frights, and Community Spirit

10/31/2025

 
Picture
​The 2025 Haunted Halls is officially in the books, and what a night it was! Hundreds of children, teens, and adults came out to enjoy an evening filled with thrills, chills, laughter, and plenty of Halloween fun.

Guests had the choice between two unforgettable experiences. The spooky hall offered an old-school carnival feel, complete with fun games, little prizes, and just the right amount of spookiness for younger guests and those who preferred smiles over screams.
Meanwhile, the scary hall turned up the fright factor, featuring a haunted cornfield, a creepy butcher shop, a twisted carnival, and much more for those looking for a true Halloween scare. Many guests couldn’t resist experiencing both! The event was filled with laughter, gasps, and a few well-timed screams as families and friends enjoyed the night.

Axe Quacks Launches Duckpin Bowling Downtown

10/30/2025

 
Axe Quacks Bellefontaine logo
Downtown Bellefontaine just got even more fun. Our friends at Axe Quacks, already known for bringing high-energy axe-throwing entertainment to the community, have leveled up in a big way - they’ve officially added duckpin bowling to their lineup!
​
If you haven’t tried duckpin bowling before, picture all the things you love about classic bowling… but with a fresh twist. The balls are smaller (no finger holes!), the pins are shorter, and the game is a little more fast-paced and laugh-filled. It’s the kind of activity that’s easy for kids, competitive for adults, and absolutely perfect for parties, team outings, or a spontaneous downtown night with friends.

And don’t worry - axe throwing is still part of the fun! Axe Quacks continues to offer their signature axe lanes, plus a growing selection of arcade games for anyone who prefers to keep both feet on the ground. Between bowling, throwing, and gaming, there’s something for everyone - whether you’re out for friendly competition or just looking for a good time.

This new addition brings more variety, more energy, and more reasons to stay and play in Bellefontaine, especially as our downtown continues to anchor itself as a destination for food, fun, and local experiences. The Axe Quacks team has transformed part of their space to create a vibrant, game-night atmosphere - pairing duckpin lanes with their existing axe-throwing bays for a one-of-a-kind entertainment combo you won’t find anywhere else nearby.

Whether you're planning a family outing, a date night, or an after-work hangout, this upgrade offers another exciting reason to support local and stay downtown a little longer. Grab dinner nearby, stroll our shops, then head to Axe Quacks to cap off the perfect Bellefontaine night.

Duckpin lanes are now open, and reservations are encouraged - you can learn more or book a lane at axequacks.com.

Here’s to even more play, laughter, and memories made right here in our hometown. 🦆🎳
See you on the lanes downtown!

Logan County District Libraries Receives $10,000 Award from the Carnegie Corporation of New York to celebrate America’s 250th anniversary in 2026

Carnegie Library Bellefontaine history
​Logan County District Libraries, formerly the Bellefontaine Carnegie Free Library, is proud to announce it has been awarded a $10,000 grant from the Carnegie Corporation of New York in recognition of its long-standing service to the community and its historic connection to the Carnegie library movement. 
The Bellefontaine Carnegie Free Library has stood as a symbol of learning and civic pride since its completion in 1905. Built with an original grant of $14,000 from philanthropist Andrew Carnegie, the library was designed by Bellefontaine native William Kauffman and constructed by the Buckeye Churn Company of Sidney. Its cornerstone sits at the intersection of North Main Street and East Sandusky Avenue, on the very land once owned by Rebecca Brown—an early advocate for literacy and education in Logan County.
