"A community located in West Central Indiana just east of the Illinois border, sitting on the banks of the Wabash - A community on the verge of greatness. A community revitalized with new downtown development, growing tourism assets and nationally-recognized parks and recreation and higher education institutions. We forgot how great this place was until now. It’s time. It’s time for us to show Indiana we’re uniquely positioned to win."
