Oh the Rivy! I have such fond memories of coming here growing up. Great location , large pool,…read morecomfortable environment. I came here with a friend recently for a swim in the pool. And it's the same great big pool I remember from when I was a kid. The reception area looks the same as it did back when I was a kid. I was a bit disappointed to see the bottom of the pool was exposed concrete with many cracks having been repaired with white epoxy seams. There was crumbled bits of concrete on the floor of the pool that I accidentally stepped on and felt like I was walking on rocks (OUCH). The locker room was okay, somewhat maze like, and could use a face lift. I went to take a shower after my dip and it ran cold to scalding with no opportunity for adjustment in between. Such a great location and facility. With so many possibilities.

We are so thankful to have found Michael! He's photographed a few of our events (a brunch bash in…read morean apartment building and a red carpet movie premiere so far) and they've been our favorite eventphotos in a long time. We've used his past photos for our marketing as well. Michael's incredibly professional and brings proper lighting to make the photos come out perfectly, despite your venue's lighting situation. He's calm, kind, and easy to get along with, so we love having him around based on not only his skills, but his personality as well. He shares event photos within 24 hours and they're always flawless. Our attendees are always thrilled when they come out and tend to share them more than anyone has at past events. Excited to keep working together. His rates are reasonable and he also leads photography and videography classes if you're looking to learn from a pro.

We worked with Michael on personal branding and food photography for our Apricot Sun food company…read more Michael is a great person to work with. He understands the complexity behind food imagry and has a clear vision of what he's "shooting" for. The flow went really well and we covered so much in just a few hours. Michael went above and beyond to deliver a great experience with 10s of images that are of the highest quality. Apart from the time we assigned, he took the product to his studio and did more shots, working extra time to do the product cut-outs. Michael charges very reasonably compared to the market. I usually dread food photography projects because of how much prep they involve. Michael made this project easy, light, and fun just like the person he is. Check out Apricot Sun- Mediterranean Food Bar website for the "out of a magazine" images that Michael shot!

I just really hate the outdoors. Especially the outdoors in Indiana, because there are a plethora…read moreof insects that can sting you, or infect you with various diseases, or just get up in your face and annoy you. And then there are deer that look nice but carry ticks, and geese that are mean, and tornadoes, and unpredictable weather ... I could go on, but you know what I'm talking about. I'm probably the most indoorsy person in the Midwest, but I feel like this is not a character train that I should pass on to my children. That's why I seek out places like White Pine Wilderness Academy, so that my children can experience the outdoors with people who ACTUALLY love the outdoors, and not people (like me) who complain about it. We did the weeklong summer camp here, and my kindergartener was surrounded by camp counselors who were knowledgable about all-things outdoors and who shared their love with all the young campers. The camp was daily, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., which was just enough time for this age range. During camp, the kids hiked, paddle boarded, waded in the White River, started fires (while supervised), whittled sticks, foraged for berries, played in the mud, made s'mores, climbed ropes and rocks, shared stories and generally just pushed themselves past their comfort zones. I have to say, I didn't know what to think about this place, at first. Having my child do all these potentially dangerous things while not under my direct supervision really tested me. (He's my first-born, so cut me a break.) I kept looking at my phone, expecting someone from White Pine to call saying that my child was at the hospital with a broken bone or a concussion. But I think having my child at White Pine was good for both me and him. He gained a lot of valuable lessons, such as respecting nature, learning independence and knowing that he's capable of a lot more than he thinks he is. And I learned that it's OK to let my child go do things that might mean that he will get hurt ... but that will also mean that he will learn a lot about the natural world and himself. On the last day of camp, all the campers and their families sat in a circle and had a small closing ceremony. One of the parents expressed how grateful she was that White Pine exists, because when she was young, spending all day outdoors -- getting muddy, running through the woods, traipsing through the creek -- was just an everyday part of childhood. But now, it's something that doesn't happen anymore, except at special places like White Pine Wilderness Academy. And as much as I hate the outdoors, I have to say that I agree, and somewhat yearn for the slow days of spending long days just looking at the horizon and waiting for the sun to set, or listening to birds chirping, or whittling rocks into sharp points. So I'm glad that White Pine exists and offers these small, slow, natural treasures to everyone who passes through their doors.

I stopped into this sewing machine store looking for something simple: safety pins. Unfortunately,…read morethey didn't carry them, and I was prepared to continue my search elsewhere. Instead, Julie went above and beyond. Rather than sending me on my way empty-handed, she checked her own supplies and generously provided me with the safety pins I needed, even though I wasn't purchasing anything from the store. In a world where customer service often feels transactional, Julie reminded me what genuine kindness looks like. She took the time to help someone who wasn't even a paying customer and did so with a friendly attitude and a willingness to go the extra mile. If this is the level of care they show to a walk-in looking for a few safety pins, I can only imagine how well they take care of their actual customers. Julie is a true asset to the store and one of the best retail associates I've encountered in a long time. Exceptional service like this deserves recognition. Thank you again, Julie!

Instead of simply telling me whether the machine could be repaired, the staff actually laughed at me when they saw how old it was. I understand that not every machine can be serviced, especially older models, but there's a respectful way to communicate that to a customer. Being mocked for bringing in a machine I care about was completely unprofessional and unnecessary. If the shop doesn't work on older machines, that's fine--just say so. But laughing at a customer and making them feel embarrassed for asking for help is not acceptable. I left feeling dismissed and won't be returning.
