Perry County Courthouse renovation earns state historic preservation award

The transformation of an aging 19th-century landmark into a building equipped for modern use has earned statewide recognition. The Perry County Courthouse was one of 12 historic preservation achievements across Ohio honored Nov. 6 with the Ohio History Connection’s 2026 State Historic Preservation Office Awards. The awards recognize projects that demonstrate the value of historic preservation through rehabilitation, stewardship, research and public engagement. According to the Ohio History Connection, the recipients exemplify how thoughtful preservation can strengthen communities while ensuring historic resources remain accessible for future generations. Built in 1887 and designed by architect Richard Yost, the Perry County Courthouse is an example of Richardsonian Romanesque architecture. A two-year, multimillion-dollar renovation sought to modernize the building without losing its historical architectural features. Renovations included upgrades to accessibility, restrooms, courtrooms and office space, while preserving and restoring some of the courthouse’s most significant architectural elements. One of the most visible projects was the restoration of the grand interior staircase. Part of the staircase was removed in the 1960s to make room for an elevator. As part of the renovation, new cast iron stringers, balustrades, medallions and newel posts were fabricated to match the historic pieces that remain. The courthouse’s main entrance

Athens' Samantha Corrigan signs letter of intent to Marshall

THE PLAINS — She’s repped green as one of her school colors for a while, and Athens’ Samantha Corrigan will continue to do so at the next level. Just in a different shade. On Wednesday afternoon, Corrigan officially signed her letter of intent to continue her academic and athletic career at Marshall, joining the Thundering Herd STUNT program. “I was very happy and proud to have my family and friends by my side to share in this accomplishment,” Corrigan said when asked about the emotions of putting pen to paper. “They’ve been here through all the hard work and time I’ve put in.” The Bulldog senior began tumbling at a young age, competing with Cobra Cheer Extreme and quickly found herself wanting more as she advanced. That led her to Cheer Athletics Columbus, where Corrigan blossomed an All-Star cheer career. That career has now spanned eight years and will continue on to the collegiate level. But it won’t be exactly the same. “The past few seasons, I haven’t been quite ready to let go of cheer. But I wanted a change,” she explained. “Marshall stunt gives me that. From the first time I met the head coach, Evynn Richard, she

Bloom-Carroll volleyball title hopes fall short in state semifinal

VANDALIA — During its tournament run to the state volleyball tournament, the Bloom-Carroll volleyball team was always able to overcome some early pitfalls, and during their Division III state semifinal against Padua Franciscan, it looked as if the Bulldogs were going to follow the same script. The Bears won the first set, but Bloom-Carroll came right back to tie it up in the second. In the all-important third set, the Bulldogs could not get over the hump and lost a heartbreaker. The Bulldogs were not able to overcome that, and the Bears were able to finish them off in the fourth set and post a 25-22, 22-25, 28-26, 25-14 victory on Friday night, Nov. 13, at Vandalia-Butler High School. More: 'We want to win it all' | Bloom Carroll eyes state title Even though the Bulldogs fought back, they made some uncharacteristic mistakes, and in the end, it cost them. “We struggled, especially in that fourth set, and I think it’s one of those things where you really don’t want to think it could come to an end,” Bloom-Carroll coach Kyle McFerin said. “I thought we made winning plays in the third set, and we played to win, but we
