🏌️ Bogey revival

Franklin County • March 6, 2025

​

Good morning, Franklin County. The legendary Bogey Inn is making a dramatic comeback that would impress even Tiger Woods. Rise Brands is transforming Powell's beloved restaurant into an entertainment wonderland featuring a 36-hole putting course with climate-controlled options, restaurants, bars, and fire pits for year-round enjoyment. It's a hole-in-one for local entertainment seekers who'll need to wait until summer 2026 for the grand opening.

While you're waiting for your tee time, you might want to satisfy your sweet tooth at Rose Dough Donuts, which just announced its permanent location on North High Street. The gourmet donut concept is graduating from online orders to a brick-and-mortar bakery where you can enjoy creations like their grilled cheese and tomato soup inspired donut. Just remember to drive carefully – a reminder that comes after Tuesday's collision between an impaired driver and a sheriff's cruiser with flashing lights.

Despite the cruiser's active sirens and lights, a woman driving westbound failed to yield and struck the vehicle's front driver's side. She admitted hearing sirens but couldn't locate their source. The driver, who sustained minor injuries, was processed for suspected impairment by the Ohio State Highway Patrol while both damaged vehicles were towed from the scene.
