WHITING, Ind. — The Mascot Hall of Fame will be closing at the end of the summer.

The beloved spot in Whiting will close on Sept.14, according to a post on their Facebook page.

“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 14^th,” 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.”
