Old National Events Plaza Launches “Meet Evansville” Campaign Today in Conjunction with Visit Indiana Week

1

Old National Events Plaza launches a “Meet Evansville” digital campaign today targeted at convention & meeting planners.  The campaign encourages businesses and organizations to consider the southern tip of Indiana and the vibrant and growing community of Evansville when selecting the destination for their next conference or meeting.

An interactive website found here, will feature city venues, arts districts, attractions and nightlife via a beautiful photographic collage of Evansville while generating sales leads for prospective meetings and events.

In 2018, over 160,500 guests visited Old National Events Plaza attending meetings, conferences, sporting and other entertainment events.  The venue hosted over XXX events, representing an economic impact of 6.7 million dollars.  The “Meet Evansville” campaign was initiated to grow that impact by highlighting Evansville and Southern Indiana as a viable alternative to more central state locations for conventions and large gatherings.

“We believe this digital campaign will attract the attention of top state and regional meeting planners to help grow Evansville’s momentum and reputation as a leading destination for meetings and events.  Through new partnerships with both local and state organizations, including the South Bend Convention & Visitors Bureau, we are continually looking for innovative ways to attract guests to our developing city for an experience we know they will enjoy and remember.”

Holcomb Signs Public Health, Good Government Legislation

0

Governor Eric J. Holcomb offered the following statements after signing two Next Level Agenda bills. SEA 141 ensures access to quality treatment by implementing standard requirements for office-based opioid treatment providers. HEA 1269 restructures membership on boards and commissions affiliated with the Professional Licensing Agency and the Department of Homeland Security.

SEA 141 Office-Based Opioid Treatment Providers

“Timely access to quality treatment is essential for Hoosiers overcoming addiction. With our goal of most residents being no more than an hour away from an opioid treatment program, it’s important that we have office-based treatment in every community. I am thrilled to sign this legislation that balances guidelines for providers and ensures a standard of care will be met for every Hoosier in need of medication-assisted treatment.”

 

HEA 1269 Administrative Boards

 “One of the pillars of my Next Level Agenda is providing great government service at a great value to taxpayers. By streamlining these duplicative boards and commissions and improving customer service, we will cut red tape to deliver more efficient, cost-effective programs to citizens and businesses alike.”

 Gov. Holcomb signed a total of 61 bills. Visit the 2019 Bill Watch webpage to view these and other bills the Governor has signed into law.

 

Aces can’t dodge sweep at SIU

0

The University of Evansville baseball took their first lead of the series early, got a strong start from Justin Hayden, but couldn’t get their offense rolling, dropping their third straight to Southern Illinois Sunday afternoon in Carbondale, Illinois.

After a scoreless opening frame, the Aces bats went to work. Junior centerfielder Troy Beilsmith a single through the left side of the infield, scoring sophomore first baseman Tanner Craig from third, giving Evansville a 1-0 lead in the second inning.

However, the Salukis would answer back in the bottom of the inning,  on a sacrifice fly to right by Aiden McMahan, bringing in the equalizer.

That’s the way it would stay until the bottom of the fifth inning, as Hayden would give up the go-ahead run on a single by Addison Fuggitt, making it 2-1 Southern Illinois.

Hayden (2-2) would exit the game with the bases loaded in the sixth, giving way to freshman left-hander Michael Parks. The southpaw would hold the Salukis to just one run on a fielder’s choice, putting the Aces in a 3-1 hole. For the day, Hayden went 5 1/3 innings, allowing three runs, two earned on five hits, while striking out seven and walking none.

Parks would roll through SIU lineup in the seventh, but in the eighth the newcomer got tagged for a solo home run to left by Alex Lyon, making it 4-1 Southern Illinois. He would turn things over to senior righty Alex Allinger, who would get the final out of the inning.

However, the Aces offense could not muster any more runs, getting swept out of Itchy Jones Stadium for the second time in three years.

The loss drops Evansville to 21-22 on the season and 8-7 in Missouri Valley Conference standings. Southern Illinois improves to 22-22 overall and 4-11 in league play.

VANDERBURGH COUNTY RECENT BOOKING RECORDS

IS IT TRUE MAY 6, 2019

3
IS IT TRUE we’ve been told that several weeks ago Vanderburgh Chief Deputy County Prosecuting Attorney Gary Schutte resigned his position?  …we would like to thank former Vanderburgh Chief Deputy County Prosecuting Attorney Gary Schutte for doing one heck of a job for the citizens of Vanderburgh County?  …we predict that Vanderburgh County Prosecuting Attorney Nick Hermann will have a difficult time replacing Mr. Schutte?

IS IT TRUE  that rumors are swirling at the Civic Center that the former Vanderburgh Chief Deputy County Prosecuting Attorney Gary Schutte will soon be appointed to a spot in the Vanderburgh County Judiciary?  …that the CCO would love to see this happen because Mr. Schutte is an outstanding attorney, fair-minded, hard-working, likable, a good family man, and an honest person?

IS IT TRUE that officials at the Evansville Water And Sewer Department Utilities seemingly think that they are part of the United States Government by the way they are planning to add additional frills to the new multi-million dollar Waste Water and Treatment facility on Water Works Road?
IS IT TRUE when Saratoga Gaming Of New York purchased Ellis Park from former owner Ron Geary several years ago, they promised members of the Kentucky Racing Commission that they would do some major renovations at the track?
IS IT TRUE we’ve been told that several patrons are disappointed that Saratoga Gaming Of New York didn’t update the interior decor of the dated “Club House” building? …we are also told that patrons of Ellis Park are disappointed that Saratoga Gaming of New York hasn’t spent the money to professionally pave and stripe the parking lot, install proper exterior security lighting, update the information and directional signage, install a first-class exterior digital on-premise sign located next to the highway?
IS IT TRUE that we’ve been told by reliable sources that the current owners of Ellis Park, Saratoga Gaming of New York are currently negotiating with a successful gaming establishment from New Mexico to sell the track to them?  …we are told by several credible sources that an offer to purchase Ellis Park could be forthcoming?  …we are also told that the patrons of Ellis Park are hoping that this sale goes through?
IS IT TRUE that that several years ago a well-known website called Niche.com, which tracks the cost of living across the United States, named the Indiana cities of Fort Wayne, Evansville, and South Bend as the cheapest places in the country to live?…the City-County Observer is confident that no one who contributed to this article has ever faced a utility bill from Vectren with respect to local earnings or an ever-increasing (unreasonable) bill from the City of Evansville Sewer and Water Utility?…when digging an inch below the surface one finds that Niche.com only considers housing, food, fuel, and property taxes?…property taxes are by definition 1% of the market value of the house so cheap houses means low taxes?…since our elected officials took away our “HOMESTEAD TAX CREDIT” our property taxes are expected to be increased?…fuel may be cheap in the Evansville area but it is always cheaper across the money saving bridge in Kentucky or down at Marina Point?…food is and always has been reasonably priced in Evansville but part of that is because locals tend not to be willing to pay for designer brands and have an appetite for very inexpensive fast food from a drive-up window? …Niche also excluded the cost of healthcare, which is quite high due to the high levels of obesity, smoking, sedentary living and abuse of alcohol?…while Evansville is not even close to the cost of places like San Francisco, it is far from the cheapest place in the United States?
IS IT TRUE we are getting a kick out of watching how the local politicians are playing “pass the political ball” concerning building a crosswalk from Bosse High School across Highway 41? …we are hearing that the Indiana Department of Transportation started work last week on a feasibility study to determine viable options for that busy intersection? …that every high school within the City limits, with the exception of Bosse High school, has a pedestrian bridge?
IS IT TRUE that Mayor Lloyd Winnecke announced at his State of the City address in April 2019, “that his administration would continue working closely with INDOT to encourage them to reconsider building the pedestrian bridge near Bosse or to find another similar solution?” …if the City Of Evansville can waste multi-millions of dollars on projects that haven’t produced any measurable economic results and the EVSC could afford to purchase a Golf Course in the North end of the county that lost money, why don’t they pool some of their surplus  resources and build a pedestrian bridge for Bosse High school students?
IS IT TRUE between June 17-21 2019 Willard Library will be hosting a free Genealogy Conference?  …this event will have five national and renowned speakers?  …they are; J.Mark Lowe CG, FUGa, Amy Johnsson Crow, CG, Lisa Louise Cooke, Dr. Michaerl D. Lacopo, DVM and Mike McNerney?  …that participates will have access to 80 hours of Genealogy collections?  …we urge you to call 812-425-4309 to obtain more information about this worthy community event?
IS IT TRUE that another CCO staff member went to “AMY’S ON FRANKLIN” on Saturday night and was also impressed by his incredible steak, service, and atmosphere? …he predicts that “AMY’S ON FRANKLIN” will quickly become one of the area’s favorite places for people to take their family and friends to wine and dine?
FOOTNOTES: Todays “Readers’ Poll” question is: Are you planning to vote in tomorrows election primary?
