(Harrison, Oh.) – Getting the axe is a good thing at a new business planning to open in Harrison.

The Harrison Planning Commission recommended approval for an escape room and axe-throwing business after hearing from business owners Leon and Cheryl Boggs on August 13. The couple plans to open their business at 129 Harrison Avenue.

The Boggs operate an ax-throwing business in Greensburg, Indiana, which they told the commission they are looking to relocate to a more populated area.

The proposed business would include seating for board games, four escape rooms, four ax-throwing lanes, and a party room.

An opening date for the Harrison location has not been announced.
