Our Story
Welcome to Spooky Nook Champion Mill. As one of the largest convention centers and indoor sports facilities in the United States, we provide opportunities for millions of dedicated individuals of all ages to reach for and surpass their goals each year. We pride ourselves on a commitment to excellence that matches the size of our facilities. You may have seen our campus along the Great Miami Riverway, but where did Spooky Nook come from? Here's our story.
Spooky Nook is here due to the hard work of our founders, Sam and Melody Beiler. Visit the Spooky Nook blog to get to know Sam Beiler and hear his story firsthand.
Sam grew up in an Amish community but eventually embarked on his own journey as an entrepreneur. He spent 21 years working for an Auntie Anne's pretzel franchise, which he acquired from its original owner in 2005. As Sam neared retirement, he and Melody attended their daughter's volleyball matches at venues across the country.
The idea for a new and improved volleyball center floated around until Sam finally retired. He and Melody began touring abandoned warehouses near their home in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, looking for the perfect site.
