Pickaway County • April 29, 2025
Good morning, Pickaway County. Science is about to spark young imaginations across Circleville! The Inspiration Station's partnership with COSI brings the Inventor's Playground to town on May 2, transforming a corner of our community into a hands-on laboratory where rockets will launch, machines will whir, and dinosaurs will come together piece by piece. This 9,000-square-foot preview of our future museum offers a glimpse into a permanent resource that will inspire curious minds for generations.
The engines are revving for an action-packed weekend in Pickaway County. While Uptown Circleville First Fridays returns with gleaming chrome and roaring engines courtesy of the Roundtown Cruisers, the local softball diamond delivered its own excitement as Circleville Tigers staged a dramatic seventh-inning comeback against Logan Elm. Kayla Fleck's clutch triple and Makaylee Holbrook's walk-off single capped a heart-stopping 6-5 victory that had fans on their feet until the final swing.
