Unlock the box

Fort Recovery Public Library’s twist on escape rooms has a  few  days left.

Unlock the Box, an “escape room in reverse,” is being offered at the library through Monday. Participants can use hidden clues in the room to solve puzzles and riddles, leading them to unlock keys and unravel a mystery, according to a press release from the library. Registration is ongoing for this year’s free event, “A New Sheriff In Town.” Call (419) 375-2869 to register.

Also, the library will host an evening with Jim Waechter, a local Vietnam War veteran and co-founder of Portland’s Museum of the Soldier, at 6 p.m. Nov. 12. 


Award launched

Nominations are open for the Hoosier First Responder Medal of Honor. The new state award will honor firefighters, emergency medical responders, law enforcement and others “who distinguish themselves conspicuously by gallantry and intrepidity at the risk of the first responder's life above and beyond the call of duty.” 

For more information about nominations, visit in.gov/dhs/special-recognitions.
