Indiana Arts Commission Arts Commission approves inaugural certification of cultural districts The Indiana Arts Commission [IAC] voted recently to designate official cultural districts in three Indiana communities. "I congratulate the Indiana Arts Commission for bringing to life the vision of House Enrolled Act 1017," said Rep. Eric Koch, RBedford. Koch authored the 2008 legislation to establish the state designation

Our state cultural district designation is an important tool within a policy portfolio designed to help us capitalize on our cultural resources in ways that encourage both economic prosperity and civic wellbeing." On behalf of the people of Indiana, the Indiana Arts Commission advocates engagement with the arts to enrich the quality of individual and community life. Source: Indiana Arts Commission

During its meeting in Indianapolis, commissioners representing all areas of the state voted to accept proposals from Bloomington, Carmel, and Lafayette / West Lafayette. The IAC officially announced the designations during the annual Arts Day at the State House program sponsored by the Indiana Coalition for the Arts. "These initial three communities have set the standard for future cultural district plans around the state," Rep. Koch added. "As our

Arts Alliance of Greater Bloomington The Arts Alliance of Greater Bloomington, made up of as many as 160 individual artists, art organizations and arts advocates, is committed to furthering the arts in and around Bloomington by establishing a forum for communication and to provide advocacy for the strengthening of arts activity. The Alliance acknowledges that the

arts are an essential element of an enriched life. The organization believes that art has an economic value as well as an intrinsic value and supports the goal of payment to artists for their work. With four areas of interest—visual arts, performance arts, literature, and festivals —the Alliance seeks to nurture communication between all areas of artistic life and to engage in meaningful dialog with major entities involved in the arts in the area, including the City of Bloomington, Indiana University, Ivy Tech, the Bloomington Convention & Visitors Bureau, the Monroe County Community School Corporation, Richland-Bean Blossom Community Schools, and the business community, amongst others. The organization will use the Web site bloomingtonarts.org and can be contacted at info@bloomingtonarts.org.

Indiana University Indiana University is among the top 100 universities in the world PHOTOS I Spectrum Studio of Photography & Design

In 2009, the Academic Ranking of World Universities gave IU a world rank of 93 and a national rank of 52. Time magazine named Indiana University its “2001 College of the Year” among major research universities; Indiana is one of 60 members of the Association of American Universities, the leading American research universities. Additionally, IU has over 110 academic programs ranked in the top twenty nationwide. In January 2010 Kiplinger's Personal Finance ranked Bloomington the 28th out of the “100 Best Values in Public Colleges 2009-10.”

USA Today called Bloomington one of the top 10 student-friendly college towns with a population of less than 1 million. The university offers the latest in technology: IU was ranked as one of the top five wired universities in America according to Princeton Review and PC Magazine. On the 2010 Green Report Card, issued by the Sustainable Endowments Institute, the university received a B-.

The campus of Indiana University Bloomington sits on 1,933 acres and includes abundant green space and historic buildings dating to the university’s reconstruction in the late nineteenth century. The Indiana University Student Building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Many of the campus’s buildings, especially

the older central buildings, are made from Indiana limestone quarried locally. The Works Progress Administration built much of the campus’s core during the Great Depression. The 500,000-square-foot Indiana Memorial Union [IMU], the second largest student union in the United States, is the campus centerpiece—a place where students go to study, relax, eat, sleep, bowl, play pool, watch movies, play games in the arcade, and even shop. In addition to numerous stores and restaurants, it features an eight-story student activities tower [home to the Indiana University Student Association, Indiana Memorial Union Board, and a variety of other student organizations], a 186-room hotel, a 400-seat theatre, a 5,000-square-foot Alumni Hall, 50,000 square feet of meeting space, and a Starbucks. Nearly 20,000 people go through the Union on a typical school day. The IMU houses an outstanding collection of Indiana art including artists from Brown County, the Hoosier Group, Richmond Group and others. The Indiana University Bloomington Library System supports nineteen library facilities and three special research collections. On January 26, 2010, the Indiana University Bloomington Libraries were recognized as the top American research library system in 2009 by the Association of College and Research Libraries. IU’s Herman B Wells Library is the 13th largest university library in North America. Prior to a ceremony in June 2005 when it was

renamed for IU’s former president and chancellor, this building was simply called the Main Library. Built in 1969, the building contains eleven floors in the graduate tower and five floors in the undergraduate tower. The building also contains the Information Commons, a fully-integrated technology center for learning and collaboration which attracts 82 percent of all undergraduate students. With over 1,823 full-time faculty members, Indiana University leads the Big Ten public universities in the number of endowed faculty positions, with 333 chairs, professorships, and curators. In the 17,000-seat Assembly Hall [home to the IU NCAA basketball team], there are five NCAA Men's Division I Baskeball Championships banners on display. The IU campus also has trails that many use for biking and running. The trails in Bloomington and nearby areas total nearly 1,200 miles.The school’s national affiliation is with the National Collegiate Athletic Association [NCAA]. National team titles [now totaling 25; 24 NCAA, 1 AIAW] have been won in nine men’s sports and one women’s sport [tennis], topped by a record-setting six straight men’s swimming & diving titles, seven men’s soccer crowns and five titles in men’s basketball. Indiana studentathletes have won 133 NCAA individual titles, including 79 in men’s swimming and diving and 31 in men’s track and field. In addition, IU teams have won or shared 157 Big Ten Conference championships.

Flying Wedge Sculpture

In 1892 football’s most controversial play was launched during a football game between all time arch rivals Harvard and Yale in Hampton Park in Springfield Massachusetts In the beginning of the second half, Harvard took the field with a surprise tactical level of physical combat. Ten men, running in a “V” formation from a position a few yards

behind the ball, massed upon one Yale player. The flying wedge was born and an already violent game brought forth the most revolutionary and controversial football play ever developed. In the summer of 1905, a reporter lashed out at college athletics citing the growing toll of deaths and injuries, and specifically the flying wedge, a dangerous football offensive formation. His shocking accounts of abuses in big-time college football caught the attention of President Theodore Roosevelt. At the start of the next football season, President Roosevelt held a meeting of six football experts at the White House. He asked these representatives from Yale University, Harvard University and Princeton University to draw up a statement condemning brutal and unsportsmanlike play. In 1910, the National Collegiate Athletic Association was born. Since that time, the

NCAA has offered a forum for discussing collegiate athletics, sanctioned competitive championship events, promoted safety and emphasized the academic needs of their now 400,000 student-athletes. Information provided by NCAA Hall of Champions.

Emmert fills a vacancy created by the passing of NCAA President Myles Brand in September 2009 and will take over duties of the office from interim President James L. Isch. "We are gratified to hire an individual of Mark Emmert's stature and experience to head the NCAA," said Executive Committee chair and Oregon State University President Ed Ray told NCAA.org when Emmert was selected in April 2010. "President Emmert emerged from a field of exceptional candidates who presented a broad range of skills, knowledge and experiences. "Our options were considerable and the decision was difficult," Ray said, "but we are confident in our decision that Mark is uniquely qualified to lead the organization."

Emmert has been president at his alma mater, University of Washington, since 2004 where he has led the university to its standing as second among all public and private institutions in research funding with $1 billion in grants and contracts per year. Prior to his presidency at Washington, he was chancellor at Louisiana State University from 1999 to 2004. "It is my great honor to accept this assignment," Emmert said. "It is more than a new job for me. This is special. This is an opportunity to help shape one of the great American institutions." A Washington native, President Emmert earned his bachelor of arts degree in political science from the University of Washington and has both a master's degree and a Ph.D in public administration from Syracuse University. Among his administrative appointments in higher education, Emmert was chief operat-

ing and academic officer at the University of Connecticut [1995 to 1999], provost and vicepresident for academic affairs at Montana State University [1992 to 1995], and associate vice chancellor for academic affairs at the University of Colorado [1985 to1992]. Included among his many professional activities, Emmert is a member of the Higher Education Working Group on Global Issues as part of the Council on Foreign Relations, chairs the Executive Group of the Worldwide Universities Network, and serves on the National Security Higher Education AdvIndianapolis Symphony Orchestrary Board. He was a National Academy of Public Administration Fellow, an American Council on Education Fellow, and a J. W. Fulbright Administrative Fellow. He has written extensively on higher education and public administration over a career that spans the last 30 years.

five total NFL Draft picks, nine All-Big Ten selections, one Academic All-American and 52 Academic All-Big Ten honorees. The nine all-conference selections are the most in a three-year stretch for the Hoosiers since 1993-95 and the 52 Academic All-Big Ten honorees are the most in a three-year period in IU history. Lynch’s charges have received national recognition both on and off the field over the last three seasons. IU is looking for another promising season as the Hoosiers get off to a great start in 2010. The Hoosiers kicked off the season 3-0 and nearly knocked off Michigan in front of a sold out crowd at the recently renovated Memorial Stadium. At the helm of it all is their leader, Bill Lynch, who is no stranger to Indiana Football. A native and lifelong Hoosier with 32 years coaching experience in the state, Bill Lynch is in his fourth year as the head coach of the Indiana football program. In his three seasons, the Hoosiers reached the postseason and won seven games in a season for the first time since 1993 and won the Old Oaken Bucket for the first time since 2001. IU has boasted three All-Americans, three second-round and

Lynch completed his first season as Indiana head coach in 2007, leading the Hoosiers to a 7-6 record and a trip to the Insight Bowl. He is the only head coach in Hoosier history to guide a team to a bowl game in his debut season and just the fourth coach in IU lore to patrol the sidelines for a postseason contest. The team’s seven victories were the second most for a first-year Indiana head coach, behind only James M. Sheldon, who went 8-1-1 in 1905. Two of Lynch’s 2007 charges were selected on the first day of the NFL Draft. The New Orleans Saints picked cornerback Tracy Porter with the 40th selection, while the Buffalo Bills took wide receiver James Hardy in the 41st slot. Indiana and Michigan were the

It also marked the first time IU had two players selected on day one since 1988. Lynch is also an active member in the community, not only in Bloomington, but throughout the state. Lynch and his wife, Linda, were co-chairpersons for the 2010 Heroes for the American Red Cross campaign. The football program is also actively involved with the Bloomington Boys & Girls Club and the Riley Hospital for Children.

If you’re in town on the right day, you can see a full-scale production in the Auditorium, in what used to be a busy courtroom. Or take in an event in the Rose Firebay, so named because it once housed trucks for the City’s fire department.

Please enjoy, enlighten and evolve yourself. Visit the Ivy Tech John Waldron Arts Center.

If you’re lucky enough to live in or near the fair city of Bloomington, you, your family and friends can all enroll in a vast array of classes offered through Ivy Tech’s Center or Lifelong Learning. Whether it’s pottery for preschoolers, watercolor for senior citizens, or a college credit class for degree-seeking students, the Ivy Tech John Waldron Arts Center has it all. A brand new player on the Bloomington arts scene, Ivy Tech has been lauded at length for stepping in to preserve the previously endangered, and long-treasured, downtown arts center. City councilman Chris Sturbaum said of the new partnership, “I think this really puts community in community college. I think we’ll see over time that this has been a wonderful save.” And the editorial board of the Herald-Times declared, “Ivy Tech also is running a summer art series for kids from its newest location, the John Waldron Arts Center. Leave a building empty for even a minute, it seems, and Ivy Tech will be educating us from it."

John Waldron Arts Center

See a play, catch a concert, cruise multiple art galleries, and even sign up to take art classes – all within one affectionately-preserved historic building – the Ivy Tech John Waldron Arts Center. As unique as Bloomington itself, the Ivy Tech Waldron combines artists, performers, and educators in a stunning limestone structure that was once used as City Hall. Faint remnants of the word, “Mayor” can still be seen on a classroom door in the lobby from when it was the Mayor’s office. Across the hall is the Rosemary P. Miller Gallery, which is the building’s largest display space, and home to a pair of vintage vaults. Once used to safeguard taxes and payrolls, these old beauties now occasionally house art exhibits. The Rosemary P. Miller Gallery itself is one of the city’s best-loved and most spacious juried art spaces. Be sure to check out the latest works in the galleries, or even have your own art displayed. We accept submissions for galleries periodically. Check the website ivytech.slideroom.com for the latest submission information.

The Dalai Lama, who visited the center in May, dedicated two of the newest artistic landmarks on the property. Just past the gate are the sacred sand mandala encased in the pagoda and the ManiKorlo [or prayer wheel house] located just down the path from the Cultural Building. Each creation features traditional art forms and symbols that were created by skillful artists and monks commissioned by TMBCC Director Arjia Rinpoche to create permanent exhibits at the Center. Late this summer, the TMBCC announced its

Midwest Biking Mecca Brown County State Park trails among the best in North America Connor Richardson and Riley Figg

Brown County State Park’s mountain bike trails have been crowned as “among the best in North America” by Bike Magazine. In its article last year “33 Best Rides in North America” the international magazine says the following about the trails, which are located in Brown County State Park. “This expanding trail system is quickly becoming a favorite destination for Midwest riders . its 19 miles of singletrack is among the most varied terrain east of the Mississippi. From berms to steep switchbacks to tight trees to rock gardens, these trails have it all. And even more are on the way, with an ambitious expansion plan already in the works.” The trails also were honored as runner-up in the Best Trail Network category by the magazine. Kingdom Trails in East Burke, Vt., won the category, and Park City, Utah, joined Brown County State Park in receiving a run-

ner-up award. According to the article, “Nominations came in from the four corners of the continent, and the 11 trails we selected-along with two runnersup per category-offer some of the best mountain biking on the planet.” “The park staff has told me how impressed mountain bikers are with these new trails and how popular they are,” Carter said. “This ranking validates that in a big way.” “Credit needs to go to Governor Daniels for his vision of expanding the statewide trail system with the goal of having a recreational trail opportunity within 15 minutes of every Hoosier by the year 2016,” Carter said. “Mountain bike trails are a big part of that plan.” Dan Bortner, director of the DNR Division of State Parks and Reservoirs, said that a lot of credit goes to the Hoosier Mountain Bike As-

sociation, which saw the potential of the area, worked cooperatively with the DNR to build the trails, and still maintains them. “They convinced us that this could be a great thing for the park, worked cooperatively with us throughout and continue to do so,” Bortner said. “They said they had the expertise and the ability to do it. It didn’t take us long to see that they did.” “It’s great to have mountain bikers pouring through the park gates and there are enough trails for everybody.” There is a trail for riders of all skill levels. The multi-use trails are also open to hikers. “If you want to go and have the best hiking experience in Indiana right now, I’d say go and walk the mountain bike trails at Brown County State Park,” said John Bergman, assistant director of State Parks and Reservoirs, who worked closely with HMBA on the project.

Late summer found me camping with my son Riley, and nephew Connor in Brown County State Park. After a review of numerous excursion choices at the park, it was decided the time had come for me to get a first hand [—and foot and head and body!—] feel for mountain biking. Before I had time to reconsider, I was bikin' with the guys on some low to moderate level trails—and loving it!!! Well into the first hour everything was going just fine. I was having an unexpected blast with no fear, even as I careened over tree stumps, rocks and uneven wooden bridges that jostled my body to the core. Unexpect-

edly, we came onto what I describe as a rock garden out of control. My thoughtful self reasoned: "This could hurt! Do people really ride their bikes over these... small boulders?" As if on cue, down the hill came a shirted group of Purdue riders who proceeded to jump said rock garden like the professional motocross racers I've seen on TV! I'm not sure I cover the ground as smoothly as they did, but it looked easy enough that I'm game for coming back to try this again. I suggest you come join us!

Agritourism The tourism and agriculture industries play a vital role in Indiana’s economy, providing meaningful work to more than 169,000 Hoosiers Home to more than 59,500 farms, Indiana ranks in the top ten nationally in the production of ducks, eggs, popcorn and soybeans, and exports approximately $44 million in agricultural goods to international markets each year. Tourism is Indiana’s third largest industry, attracting more than 49 million people and $6.7 billion in visitor spending to our state each year. In Indiana, more than 11,000 businesses and organizations

depend, at least in part, on visitor spending. Farmers throughout the state continue to look for ways to add value to their products. By strengthening the relationship between tourism and agriculture and developing a statewide agri-tourism initiative, the state can maximize the opportunities for growth and future sustainability in both of these important industries.

Our Youth and Sports Injury By Dr. Doug Flory

It is estimated that 30 million youthful athletes participate in high school sports today in the United States. Youth Football athlete Bryce and Coach Dr. Doug Flory

traveliN FALL 2O1O SOUTH CENTRAL INDIANA

The national Sports Trauma and Overuse Prevention [STOP] Sports Injuries Campaign was launched earlier this year by the American Orthopaedic Society to provide education on sports injury prevention and reduction. Directed at young people, parents, coaches, league directors, trainers and anyone interested in youth sports, the goals of the campaign include raising awareness, teaching proper training and injury prevention techniques and creating a love of sports and healthy competition that will keep young athletes in the game for life. Every year about four million injuries are severe enough to require medical attention. Many of these injuries were previously sustained only by college and professional athletes.

There has been a dramatic rise in the number and severity of injuries to young athletes over the last ten years. At least half of these injuries are related to overuse. Overuse injuries are caused by the excessive and repeated use of muscles, tendons, ligaments and bones beyond their limits of recovery and repair. Injuries must be identified and treated appropriately to avoid the risk of re-injury and long term-problems like arthritis. The good news is that overuse injuries are largely preventable as they tend to result

from sports specialization. Sports specialization involves playing only one sport yearround or playing one sport on multiple teams during the same season. Young, growing bodies aren’t able to withstand the repeated movements and activities of one sport. As a board certified orthopedic surgeon who is dual fellowship-trained in sports medicine and foot and ankle injuries, I’ve see numerous patients with sports injuries resulting from overuse. I had a 14-year old male basketball player who came to the office earlier this summer. Over a three-month period, he had played more than 80 basketball games as a member of his school team and a traveling team and had developed severe tendonitis in his right knee from excessive running and jumping. Initially ignoring the injury allowed it to worsen. We had him take some time off from basketball, and we worked on his flexibility focusing on warm-up and cool-down routines. We treated his pain and inflammation with a short course of anti-inflammatory medicine and icing. We prescribed rest from running and jumping but maintained his conditioning with a swimming regimen and a combination of workouts on an exercise bike and an elliptical trainer. Four weeks later, he was able to return to full activity without pain and a promise to more carefully track the number of games he plays.

Other factors that lead to overuse injury include poor warm-up and cool-down routines, inadequate focus on flexibility, lack of preparticipation physicals, athletes’ hesitancy to discuss injuries or their tendency to downplay them, inappropriate treatment and recovery and excessive pressure.

A sobering statistic is that 70 percent of young athletes have stopped participating in sports by the age of 13 because of health concerns of coaches and parents. To address these issues on the local and regional level, a STOP Sports Injuries Campaign was launched last month in Bloomington. In the coming months, a series of community talks and workshops will be held for the purpose of discussing and demonstrating sports safety and injury prevention with young athletes, coaches, trainers, team physicians, parents and others interested in this important topic. To obtain additional information about the campaign or to schedule a talk or workshop at your school or sports facility, call 812822-2675 or go to www.atheliteortho.com. Dr. Doug Flory is a board certified Orthopedic Surgeon and graduate of IU School of Medicine currently practicing in Bloomington, IN.

Indiana is a “best kept secret”… but not for long! Travel Indiana is proud to have year round opportunity to tout the International recognition of our performing arts that makes Indiana a popular destination for seeing critically acclaimed performers, plays, musicals, orchestral productions and concerts. Indiana’s ties to well known performers such as singer Angela Brown, violinist Joshua Bell, actor Kevin Kline, musicians David Baker and John Mellencamp and composers such as Hoagy Carmichael and Cole Porter, keep us at the vortex of the performing arts worldwide. From Lafayette to Bloomington—from Boggstown to Crawfordsville—throughout central Indiana cultural opportunities

abound. Professional theatre in Indianapolis can be found at the Indiana Repertory Theatre, the Murat Theatre at Old National Center and don’t forget the intimate setting of The Phoenix Theatre located in a turn-of-the-century church just off Mass Avenue in the historic Chatham Arch neighborhood. The Indianapolis Civic Theatre is currently at home on the campus of Marian University. Soon they will relocate to the Palladium in Carmel, a state-ofthe-art facility opening in 2011. Traveling north to Lafayette for football season and fall festivals will give you a chance to spend an evening at the Elliott Hall of Music, historic Loeb Theatre or catch the famous Purdue Christmas Show. Across the state in Muncie you’ll find their symphony orchestra with an active season while Emens Auditorium is boasting a line-up of 24 shows. And when you’re heading south for the winter—or earlier to savor the breathtaking view of Brown County Hills, the changing of the seasons, and Hoosier football—plan an evening at a concert, ballet, musical or opera

produced by the world renowned IU Jacobs School of Music. For the times when you need a little more drama in your life, discover a play by IU Theater and Drama or attend a Broadway production or musical performance at the IU Auditorium. For more information on shows, log on to the website Indianaauditions.com, where you can find links to over 100 local community theatres across Indiana. Take your time perusing this special performing arts supplement presented by Travel Indiana. In one easy to use yet complete guide full of timeless content, readers are able to experience all the live performing arts in central Indiana now through June 2011. Opportunities are many, prices are reasonable and there is something for everyone. So, anytime you are thinking of traveling in or around central Indiana, remember the arts ... it’s the way to go. We hope you enjoy the show.

Grammy Award winning Joshua Bell, native of Bloomington, Indiana, according to the Boston Herald among others, is known as the greatest American active violinist today. Bell began studying the violin at the IU School of Music at age 8 and came to national attention at the age of 14 in his highly acclaimed orchestral debut with Riccardo Muti and the Philadelphia Orchestra. Bell received an Artist Diploma in Violin Performance from IU in 1989, and in 2008 joined the faculty at the Jacobs School of Music. In addition to his numerous awards, Joshua Bell was recently named 2010 Instrumentalist of the Year by Musical America.

Way before the birth of the Indiana University Auditorium, the department of Theatre and Drama began with student groups performing plays on the Bloomington Campus as early as the 1880’s. By 1915 several campus drama groups were active, and the Department of English offered the first theatre course, The Staging of Plays. Today, the IU Theatre and Drama department opens its season with multiple award-winning productions, yet remains some of the most affordable performances with ticket prices ranging from $15-$22.

Cabaret

The Located in the historic Columbia Club on Monument Circle in the heart of downtown Indianapolis, patrons of The Cabaret experience the finest in cabaret performances— up close and personal. The Cabaret's intimate and elegant atmosphere invokes the art deco era when sophisticated and swanky supper clubs flourished--an era when Hoagy Carmichael could still be heard playing jazz on the grand piano, as he did in the 1920's in the Crystal Terrace where The Cabaret's performances take place today.

T H E G I B S O N S T R A D I VA R I U S The Gibson Stradivarius: From Huberman To Bell

The Gibson Stradivarius featured on the cover—one of the world’s great violins—is now owned and played by Joshua Bell.

The “Gibson” Strad Of 1713

ANTONIO STRADIVARI: THE CREMONA EXHIBITION OF 1987 AS TOLD BY CHARLES BEARE This violin of flat, masculine build—an outstanding concert instrument—is famous for having been stolen from the Polish virtuoso violinist Bronislaw Huberman at Carnegie Hall in New York in 1936. Huberman had played a concert on his Guarneri, and on returning to his dressing room discovered that his treasured Stradivari had disappeared. No trace of it was found until spring of 1987, when it was offered to Lloyd’s of London, the legal owners, by the widow of Julian Altman, a café violinist who claimed to have bought it for a modest sum the day after the theft. W. E. Hill and Sons purchased the violin in the nineteenth century from an old French family, subsequently selling it to Alfred Gibson, a prominent English violinist who also owned one of the Stradivari violas exhibited in Cremona. In 1911 it returned to Hill and was sold to Huberman, at which time Alfred Hill wrote that “the fine red varnish which covers it is in a pure state as applied by the maker.” Three months before the opening of the exhibition the varnish was almost unrecognizably submerged beneath layers of dark grime and shellac, but after a minor restoration and a very careful clean-up at J and A Beare it duly took its place, its deep red colour once more revealed for all to admire. The violin’s tone turned out to be absolutely outstanding and in February 1988 it was sold by J and A Beare, acting on behalf of Lloyd’s, to the well-known violinist Norbert Brainin, formerly of the Amadeus Quartet. Joshua Bell purchased the Violin in 2001 from Norbert Brainin at a price of $4 million. For more detailed information about the history of this violin visit joshuabell.com/biography.

The restaurant estimates that they are able to source 70%-80% locally. They get the meat for their gourmet burgers [for example caramelized balsamic onions, 2 year aged Indiana cheddar, homemade bbq, apple wood smoked bacon - yum!] from Moody Meats. Moody Meats is a sustainable meat farm in Crawfordsville. They raise "happy" animals in every sense of the word. Scotty's gives kitchen scraps back to the Moody's for their chickens to enjoy. In addition to beef burgers, Scotty's also offers turkey, elk, bIndianapolis Symphony Orchestran, and veggie burgers. Local artisans such as Country Mouse City Mouse and The Flying Cupcake are tapped for value-added products, like sauces, and desserts. Keeping with the green theme, all food waste is composted and all paper, plastic, and glassware are recycled. ALL BURGERS ARE $8

Recently while traveling in Northern Michigan, I craved the super fresh, local, food that I had become accustomed to at my favorite restaurants back home, in Indiana. Of course, you know to get your sinuses cleared by St. Elmo’s shrimp cocktail sauce [now available for purchase!] while visiting downtown Indianapolis, but what about all the new, hot spots? With so many food borne illnesses and a growing concern about our health, it is no surprise that more and more great chefs have begun to support the local movement. And I don’t mean that the last stop in a long chain was within 100 miles. I mean local in that the restaurant knows the growers’ first names and just exactly how the product was raised, ensuring the highest environmental and ethical standards. Experience these central Indiana restaurants for local, delicious, food:

TRADERS POINT CREAMERY [THE LOFT] The epitome of farm to table. The loft at Traders Point Creamery is located in a historic, wood barn in the middle of an organic dairy farm and creamery – very farm chic. Their herd of Brown Swiss rotates through pastures, eating a 100% grass diet, which produces chocolate milk so rich it could be a dessert, a variety of cheeses, and thick, drinkable yogurt. Their formage blanc, a soft, spreadable cheese, fleur de la terre, an aged raw milk cheese, and yogurt have all won best in America. All of these products and more are available for purchase at their farm store located beneath the restaurant. Finally, their ice cream bar was named by USA Today as the best ice cream parlor in Indiana. All of their products are featured on their menu along with other organic purveyors, and their meats are always local. Be sure to allow for extra time to explore and enjoy the beauty of the farm by walking the trails, seeing the garden, and marveling at the cheese cave. Farm motto: "Nourish the land that nourishes us all".

FINCH’S BRASSERIE I like this restaurant so much that I have eaten here for lunch and dinner in the same day. Located in a city touted as one of the best food cities in the Midwest, this is a stand out. Not only is the food exceptional, but a page in the menu lists every farm that they buy from. Pictures from these same farms share wall space with local artists. Every dish of the Mediterranean-American themed menu offers an exciting combination of flavors that leaves you quite pleased and wanting dessert—which I would recommend. From the patio, which looks at the historic Sample Gates of Indiana University to the open, wood fired oven, every seat in the house feels like home. Traders Point Creamery

RECIPE

dining I bloomington

Made Fresh Daily... Every Day

A Falafels delicious treat keeps customers asking for more: "We slice a pita in two, splash olive oil and our house-made zatar on it, and grill it quickly to a golden perfection. It is served with salsa and a zatar/olive oil dip." falafelsonline.com

Falafels' bakers are up before the crack of dawn every morning preparing the day’s pita. Our special recipe ensures that our bread is not only soft, but that a pocket is made during the baking process that can later be filled with falafels, kabobs and other delicious fillings. We are confident that our pita bread is not only the best in town, it is probably one of the best in the whole region!

Don't let your taste buds miss this little gem of a middle eastern restaurant

Don't let your taste buds miss this little gem of a middle eastern restaurant on your next lunchtime scroll down Kirkwood in Bloomington. Naomi Posner, owner of Falafels restaurant shares a little of what makes her restaurant continuously successful after 15 years.

Where can we buy your delicious homemade breads? Falafels pita bread is delivered fresh 6 days a week to Bloomingfoods and sold at each of its branches daily. Any unsold bread is returned to us, so that you can be sure that all Falafels bread that you purchase at Bloomingfoods is baked fresh that day. If you never want to be without the taste of our homemade pita.

al Din u i s

What makes Falafels' sandwiches so yummy? Well, besides the freshly made falafel mix, hummus and kabobs, it is probably the fact that the bread is baked fresh daily.

If you want to dine-in, our bread can also be found in the sandwiches sold at the Green Bean Coffee Shop, and of course, at our Middle Eastern Restaurant, Falafels, where it is served grilled to all of our dine-in customers, and used for our sandwiches. What other surprises will we find at Falafels Restaurant? If you have never had our freshly made pita chips, you have missed a treat! We use our bread to make our fresh pita chips. We quickly deep-fry them in oil, preferably with just a bit of crunch on the edges, and serve them up piping hot. Dip them in hummus for a delicious, savory appetizer. And just remember, every Friday you can get a free order of pita chips at lunch with the purchase of your sandwich. 430 E Kirkwood Ave I 812-355-3555

New to WITT this fall, featuring Americana, alternative country, blues, bluegrass and the best of emerging regional talent Growing up on rock and roll and traditional country music, I always had the radio tuned to my favorite stations. My older brother’s record collection supplied my influences at a young age. By the fifth grade I was listening to the Beatles’ White Album, the Eagles’ Hotel California and to James Taylor and Johnny Cash. My career path led me to the doorstep of a little rock radio station in Southern Indiana in 1987 and has wound across the State of Indiana since then. My current home is on a small station – WITT 91.9 fm – whose signal broadcasts from Zionsville, a northern suburb of Indianapolis. This year, WITT was voted No. 4 in the favorite Fm radio station category by the Indianapolis listening audience in the WRTV “A-List Contest.” Over the past couple of decades radio has changed dramatically. In a large metropolitan city like Indianapolis, one would be hard pressed to find a station like WITT - the only place where indie music, indie programming and an eclectic music mix plays Johnny Cash in tandem with the B52’s, Frank Sinatra and the best of local and regional artists. Specialty shows that feature particular styles of music also find a home on the station, including ROOTS DINER, my contribution to the cause that airs on Saturday mornings at 11am and again on Sunday evenings at 10pm. New to WITT this fall, the show features Americana, alternative country, blues, bluegrass and the best of emerging regional talent. I particularly enjoy introducing local

and regional musicians to area radio listeners. Each month, I shine the spotlight on singer/ songwriters and groups that are making their way in the music industry. Upcoming Roots Diner Spotlights will feature Bloomington’s Tom Roznowski, Craig Brenner, and long-time Zionsville resident, singer/songwriter, David Moore, whose catalog was recently licensed by Warner Chappell Publishing. These three are among the finest of Indiana’s home-grown musicians. Their music is meaningful and memorable, and I’m always delighted to share their fine recordings with my radio audience. I’ll be featuring songs from David’s debut solo album, My Lover My Stranger in the coming weeks. Moore is the former front man for the indie rock band, Chamberlain and the Americana ensemble, Chevy Downs. Audiences will want to stay tuned for the ROOTS DINER Christmas Special. We’ll be featuring an array of talented Indiana musicians who will join me in the studio to share their Christmas memories and play some memorable music. It’s a pleasant holiday experience that my listeners have always enjoyed. We’ve heard it said that variety is the spice of life. WITT 91.9 fm is all about variety! After traveling the radio road for several years now, I have gained a renewed appreciation for indie radio stations and their commitment to airing a creative, eclectic and colorful mix of music and artists.

Towns offer culture and hospitality with a diverse array of specialties Like other cities of comparable size, Bloomington is comprised of a variety of neighborhoods, each of which boasts its own unique characteristics and diversity of structures, offerings and community activities. A central focal point from which each neighborhood emanates is the Courthouse Square. Four distinct historic districts—North Indiana Avenue, Westside, Prospect Hill and North Washington Avenue

The Courthouse Square District plays host to annual arts fairs and numerous musical events including the Lotus World Music Festival. It is home to an eclectic array of art galleries, restaurants, music venues and businesses. The B-line Trail, a brick and limestone-lined pedestrian pathway, provides the district easy pedestrian access from the surrounding neighborhoods.

The Westside District is home to the venerable Showers Brothers Furniture Factory. Once the world’s largest, the old factory was refurbished in 1996. Today, the building houses Bloomington City Hall.

Laid out as a public square in 1818, the Courthouse Square Historic District was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1990. With the assistance of the Downtown Bloomington Commission and federal tax credits, several downtown buildings were renovated. The Courthouse, the Princess Theatre, the Wicks Building and the Old City Hall are included on the National Historic Register.

A bustling east-west corridor from the Courthouse Square to the campus is the intersection of Kirkwood Avenue and Indiana Avenue. The stately Sample Gates grace the intersection and provide entry to the University’s Old Crescent Woods. Quaint limestone walls, brick sidewalks, turn-ofthe-century streetlights and lovely floral landscaping add to the ambience of the North Indiana Avenue District which was listed on the National Historic Register in 1997. While enjoying the samplings of Tudor, Colonial and Dutch Colonial revival styles, visitors will want to stop by The Gables where hometown legend Hoagy Carmichael wrote the classic song, Stardust.

Platted in 1893, Prospect Hill is located southwest of the Courthouse Square. Listed on the National Historic Register in 1991, this neighborhood’s residences reflect fine examples of Queen Anne, Free Classic and Period Revival architecture. The North Washington Avenue District is a two-block area north of the Courthouse Square. It was listed on the National Historic Register in 1991. Many of its Queen Anne and Classic Revival homes were built in the 1890s by brothers, W.N and J.D. Showers.
