Local Brew Logo
​

Good morning, Preble County. The unmistakable sound of tiny paws will echo across Middletown this weekend as Corgipalooza returns for its fourth year, bringing hundreds of the adorable short-legged companions to Horsepower Farm. Complete with costume parades, trick-or-treating, and off-leash play areas, this $10 advance-ticket event promises to be the fluffiest festival of the season, with proceeds supporting community causes that deserve more than just a tail wag.

While corgi enthusiasts prepare for their gathering, Preble County voters are adjusting to a significant change in their election landscape with polling locations reduced from 20 to just six sites. In brighter community news, Brookville Police are collecting candy donations for their annual Ghostly Night Out celebration on October 18, featuring "Trunk or Treat," hayrides, and even Star Wars characters—proving that in Preble County, Halloween spirit extends well beyond our four-legged friends.

🗳️ Preble County slashes polling locations from 20 to just six. The county board of election is consolidating voting sites to save taxpayer money by reducing rental fees and ADA compliance costs. Officials also cite declining volunteer numbers and increasing trends of early and mail-in voting as reasons for the permanent change. The six remaining locations include five area schools and Fairhaven Community Church, with sheriff's deputies stationed at schools on Election Day to ensure safety. For voters with mobility challenges, curbside voting will be available at all locations.
