Spring is finally making its way into Lima, Ohio...kind of! For those of us who have lived here awhile, we know it can be 60 degrees and sunny one day, to 48 degrees with rain and wind the next day.
As we are shaking off our winter blues and yearning for the warm weather to arrive (and stay), there are plenty of things to do in Lima and throughout Allen County that don’t require sun! Here are 5 ideas to get your family out and have fun.
Westgate Entertainment Center
An entertainment staple in Lima, Westgate Entertainment Center has something for everyone to enjoy! They are open every day of the week (be sure to check their operating hours before arriving) and offer open bowling, thunder alley bowling, axe throwing arcade games, bumper cars, and a virtual reality experience called Hologate. While you’re there, grab a bite to eat at the Char Grill Restaurant and try a slice of their famous pizza!
