    Pacers Athletic Center - Tyrese Haliburton

    I've discovered something after 10+ years living in Indiana. And that is: A lot of people in…read moreIndiana love basketball. It's true, it's true. So it would make sense that a facility dedicated to the state's favorite sport would be awesome. Pacers Athletic Center is a huge basketball facility with eight courts. This is where basketball camps, practices and tournaments are held, and it's located inside the Grand Park campus in Westfield. Apparently, volleyball is also played at this facility, too. I thought that maybe this is where the Pacers practice, but no -- it's just named after the team. I was visiting Pacers Athletic Center to cover a basketball camp that was led by Tyrese Haliburton. In case you're disconnected from basketball like I am: Tyrese Haliburton plays for the Pacers, and he is a big deal! He's a good basketball player. He's also a pretty good person, because he puts on kids' basketball camps here in Indy and in his home state of Wisconsin. This facility was a good venue for this camp, because it had more than enough room to hold the more than 300 kids and their parents, basketball players, staff and other people involved in the event. There's an upstairs overlook (the Pacers Fan Zone) with lots of tables and chairs, and it's a nice, out-of-the-way place to get a 360-degree look at all of the courts. There's also a snack bar, vending machines and lots of space to walk around. The parking lot is big, but depending on the event and the time, parking can be a little iffy.

    I play here all the time and it's great. I have never been treated bad. I have great memories here…read moretoo. 10/10 would recommend.

    MLK Park is undergoing a major upscale renovation. I stopped by last week to monitor the progress…read more The park is home to a fabulous sculpture depicting Bobby Kennedy and Martin Luther King reaching out to each other. The sculpture sits on the ground where Kennedy delivered a moving speech on April 4, 1968, after the assignation of MLK. A nearby historical marker describes the importance of the speech. Many visionaries contributed to the Park and Memorial conception, including the Simons Brothers, The Pacers, politicians and artists. The sculpture was designed by Indiana artist, Greg Perry and cast by Daniel Edwards. I find the sculpture exceptional and moving. A modern Memorial Center is under construction just north of the Statue. The Center will house Park staff and exhibits about MLK and civil rights. An MLK quote is inscribed on the Center wall "Hate cannot drive out hate, only love can do that," Several contractors were working during my visit and the Center is behind closed fences during construction. It is hard to say when the Center will open, but I would guess Spring of 2026. A modern and colorful playground is also on the park grounds with climbing structures, swings and more. The made of the playground is soft matting material to improve safety. A swimming pool and basketball courts are also contained on the park grounds. Lots of green space is maintained on the park grounds. Landscaping efforts are in progress between the statue and Center with new walkways and signage. There is free street parking surrounding the park. Park use is free (not sure about pool use though). Several interesting murals of MLK surround the park. I look forward to visiting with my granddaughters when the Center opens. This is a moving Memorial and fabulous resource for the city.

    I started my 2021 Martin Luther King Jr. holiday with a visit to Indy's Martin Luther King Memorial…read morePark, a park that marks the spot where Indy residents had gathered to hear Robert F. Kennedy make a campaign speech but instead were informed that Martin Luther King had been assassinated. Kennedy's speech has long been acclaimed and credited as a key factor as to why Indy remained peaceful in the hours and days after King's assassination while other large cities nationwide experienced riots. The park is home to the Landmark for Peace Memorial, a tribute to both King and Kennedy that was funded by the Indiana Pacers Foundation with a design concept by Indianapolis writer Greg R. Perry and sculpting cast by Indianapolis sculptor Daniel Edwards. The memorial is in my estimation one of Indy's finest examples of both memorial and public art, a meaningful gathering space in a 14-acre park that also, as it did for me this morning, serves as a place for reflection and gratitude. There is such tremendous power in walking, or in my case wheeling, between these figures of Kennedy and King outstretched toward one another sitting on nearly the exact spot where their lives became so irrevocably intertwined in Indiana history. This park is part of Indy Parks. The park itself does also have a pool, though it has been closed during 2020 due to the pandemic. I think the weaving together of practical and aspirational help to make this such an extraordinary park and one of the true gems of Indy Parks. There are, of course, other places you can visit in Indy in observance of Martin Luther King Jr. Day, including my own alma mater Martin University (which was actually named after both King and St. Martin de Porres). However, a visit to this park and the Landmark for Peace Memorial is essential and I'm glad I was able to start my day here.

    The Recreation center is great for all ages and all activities! They have park space,…read moreindoor/outdoor pools and water slides, in addition to a workout facility. The facility itself is relatively new (I heard some people in the gym talking about having been going there for 20 years)! The gym maintains their gym equipment. In addition, they maintain the grounds really well. Someone is always patrolling the parking lot, Splash Island and cleaning the indoor areas. They offer various classes, including fitness and summer classes for the kids!!! Some other amenities I didn't expect -- lap swimming pool (indoor and outdoor), a lazy River and full free weight squat and bench racks. All staff are incredibly helpful and this place does a nice job training. It employs all ages and they host an annual "Getting Ready"-type training in the summer that prepares the lifeguard staff before opening. They're also fairly active on Facebook and good about communicating closings/delays. A great high school or college job for students. It's worth the price too! Any commercial gym membership costs the same for residents to just be a member here!

    I'm definitely convinced they only want certain people here, and we all know who! I called, first…read morereceptionist said they had several openings on Friday, call back,(oh the 22n, 23rd, no parties will be provided, but clearly the online just had a opening on the day, besides the last caller said it was available. So I decided to pop up in them since that stop answering the phones, oh in person was even WORST! Receptionist looks like she's in her 40s giving soooo much attitude, when she should have been giving more information like she did for the previous customer in front of me! She had brochures and everything! Yes I'm convinced they don't want US! Yes Us here! Stay Woke!
