“How do I say goodbyeeeee…”
Whiting, Indiana will be forced to say goodbye to the Mascot Hall of Fame on September 14. The group announced on Facebook in a statement, saying,
“It is with sadness in our hearts that we must announce that the Mascot Hall of Fame will be closing in Whiting for good on September 14th,” the post said. “We have made quite a family in the 5+ years since we opened our doors. We have had the pleasure of sharing in hundreds of your special days and birthdays. We’ve had thousands and thousands of students visit for field trips. We’ve been able to fill gaps in the community with free and reduced programs, food banks, blood drives, backpack giveaways, sensory days, reading programs, and so much more. It has been an honor.”
Mascots can still get inducted through an online process until the hall finds a new home.
