Shelby Co. Chamber Weekly Broadcast May 13

Ride Your Bike to Work on May 15
Leave your car at home on Friday, May 15.  That’s National Bike-to-Work Day, when Bicycle Indiana is helping people all over the state to link up and safely ride to work together. Bicycle Indiana, in conjunction with IndyGo and the City of Indianapolis, has organized rides from 11 Indianapolis-area locations, and all will be led by experienced cyclists. All routes end at Monument Circle for a celebration with free breakfast, bike parking, giveaways, demonstrations and other information about bicycling.

Employees can also participate in the Bicycle Garage Indy bike-to-work corporate challenge—a friendly competition designed to reward company “teams” for riding the most total miles. 

“Riding your bike to work is exercise with a purpose,” says Bicycle Indiana board member Pete Fritz. “I’m doing something that’s good for me, instead of just sitting in a car. Bicycle commuting is a great way to squeeze regular exercise into a busy schedule. And Indiana employers should support bike commuters, because healthy, active workers miss less work and are more productive.”  

The League of American Bicyclists says that employees that bike to work are also happier. Riding stimulates circulation, relieves stress, allows creative thought and fosters a positive attitude. 

Bicycle Indiana (formerly the Indiana Bicycle Coalition) is a statewide organization dedicated to creating a bicycle-friendly Indiana. Go to bicycleindiana.org or call 317-466-9701for more information about the Indianapolis Bike-to-Work Day routes and to register for the corporate challenge. 

Then gather your co-workers, get on your bike, and ride!

Blue River Bowl
Kids Bowl Free 

HTTP://www.shelbynews.com/main.asp?SectionID=42&subsectionID=84&articleID=60569

Web Posted 5/6/2009 5:00:00 PM
Article:  School is out for the summer in less than a month, and parents are starting to look for different activities to fill the long weeks of summer vacation. One option that won't cost any money is Kids Bowl Free program through Blue River Bowl, 1601 S. Miller St., which offers children two free games of bowling each day during the summer. 

According to Tom Hebbe, owner of Blue River Bowl, he has distributed thousands of coupons telling the community about this program that is part of a nationwide push to introduce children to bowling, and instructors are at the bowling center each day.

"This is an absolutely, no-strings-attached program that is being rolled out across the nation to provide a safe, fun option for our country's youth this summer," Hebbe said.

Blue River Bowl was selected as one of 100 centers in the U.S. to participate. Over 1,500 public and private schools are part of Kids Bowl Free, and students of all ages can participate.

"This program is our way to expose the sport of bowling to many new participants. We are proud that bowling is the fastest-growing high school sport in America. We hope this summer program will open children's minds to the sport side of bowling while offering them something to do that is free and fun."

In order to participate, parents must visit www.kidsbowlfree.com/blueriverbowl and register their children to receive the two free bowling games every day from now through Aug. 30. After registering online, they will receive e-mails each week for coupons which they can print out and redeem at Blue River Bowl.

Hebbe said the bowling center is busy with activities for families and students throughout the year, so the free bowling is a way of thanking them for their support over the years. Since older family members might also want to participate, Blue River Bowl is offering a special family pass that provides up to four family members of any age to receive two games of bowling each day for a one-time fee of only $23.95.

Blue River Bowl is celebrating its 50th anniversary from 11 a.m. to midnight on Saturday. In addition to bowling, activities will include live entertainment, cornhole, clowns, balloons, a dunk tank and a bounce house. Pizza, soft drinks, beer and mixed drinks also are available for purchase.

"We will be celebrating all day and night," Hebbe said. "There will be plenty to do outside in the sun and inside on the lanes."

As part of the anniversary celebration, Blue River Bowl patrons will receive their first game and shoe rental free on Saturday.

The military jumps into action and Susan is captured and secreted away to a covert government compound. There, she is renamed Ginormica and placed in confinement with a ragtag group of Monsters: the brilliant but insect-headed Dr. Cockroach, Ph.D.; the macho half-ape, half-fish The Missing Link; the gelatinous and indestructible B.O.B.; and the 350-foot grub called Insectosaurus. Their confinement is cut short, however, when a mysterious alien robot lands on Earth and begins storming the country. In a moment of desperation, The President is persuaded to enlist the motley crew of Monsters to combat the Alien Robot and save the world from imminent destruction.

INDIANA REPORTS CONFIRMED CASE OF NORTH AMERICAN HUMAN INFLUENZA A (H1N1)

INDIANAPOLIS---State health officials report test results from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have confirmed a case of North American Human Influenza A (H1N1) in northern Indiana.

“We advise Hoosiers to practice normal precautions to avoid influenza and other respiratory diseases, such as frequent hand washing and covering your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze,” said State Health Commissioner Judy Monroe M.D.  

Dr. Monroe reminds the public to follow basic precautionary measures to prevent the spread of a cold, influenza, or any infectious disease, including:

·      Cover your nose and mouth with a tissue when you cough or sneeze. Throw the tissue in the trash after you use it.   Cough or sneeze into your sleeve, rather than your hands, if a tissue is not available.

·      Wash your hands often with soap and water, especially after you cough or sneeze. Alcohol-based hands cleaners are also effective.

·         Try to avoid close contact with sick people.

·         If you get sick, stay home from work or school and limit contact with others to keep from infecting them.

The symptoms of North American human influenza A (H1N1) are similar to the symptoms of regular seasonal influenza and include fever, lethargy, lack of appetite and coughing.  Some people have also reported runny nose, sore throat, nausea, vomiting and diarrhea.

Dr. Monroe recommends individuals with mild symptoms of influenza should stay home and call their health care provider for advice.  If symptoms become severe, such as high fever, trouble breathing, or inability to keep down fluids, they should seek medical care.

Parents are also reminded they should not give aspirin to children with flu symptoms to alleviate fever, as it can put them at risk for Reye syndrome, a potentially fatal disease that causes numerous detrimental effects to many organs, especially the brain and liver.

  “This is a novel human virus, which means we do not have a vaccine to prevent it,” said Dr. Monroe.  “Individuals aged 65 and older or those with chronic diseases and immune deficiencies are at higher risk for severe complications from influenza, including pneumonia.  If these individuals have not received the pneumococcal vaccine, they should discuss with their physician getting the vaccine.”

The Indiana Department of Homeland Security announced the state's Emergency Operations Center (EOC) became active this morning.
Media will be able to contact a public information officer at the EOC at (317) 234-6713.
State officials have set up a toll-free hotline:  877-826-0011. 

 

Ride Your Bike to Work on May 15
Leave your car at home on Friday, May 15.  That’s National Bike-to-Work Day, when Bicycle Indiana is helping people all over the state to link up and safely ride to work together. Bicycle Indiana, in conjunction with IndyGo and the City of Indianapolis, has organized rides from 11 Indianapolis-area locations, and all will be led by experienced cyclists. All routes end at Monument Circle for a celebration with free breakfast, bike parking, giveaways, demonstrations and other information about bicycling.

Employees can also participate in the Bicycle Garage Indy bike-to-work corporate challenge—a friendly competition designed to reward company “teams” for riding the most total miles. 

“Riding your bike to work is exercise with a purpose,” says Bicycle Indiana board member Pete Fritz. “I’m doing something that’s good for me, instead of just sitting in a car. Bicycle commuting is a great way to squeeze regular exercise into a busy schedule. And Indiana employers should support bike commuters, because healthy, active workers miss less work and are more productive.”  

The League of American Bicyclists says that employees that bike to work are also happier. Riding stimulates circulation, relieves stress, allows creative thought and fosters a positive attitude. 

Bicycle Indiana (formerly the Indiana Bicycle Coalition) is a statewide organization dedicated to creating a bicycle-friendly Indiana. Go to bicycleindiana.org or call 317-466-9701for more information about the Indianapolis Bike-to-Work Day routes and to register for the corporate challenge. 

Then gather your co-workers, get on your bike, and ride!

Mathies Landscaping, Inc.
Beautiful Hanging Baskets, Tropical Plants, Annuals, Perennials, Shrubs and Trees
BLOOMING and BEAUTIFUL!!! 
Here are some Green Tips from Susie:

  • Eliminate lawn weeds by using Fertilome Weed and Feed Fertilizer.  Get them before they go to seed!!  Setting your mower to a higher cut during the spring months will help the grass grow in fuller and choke out weeds.
  • Fertilize your trees and shrubs with Fertilome Tree and Shrub Food.      
  • Use an *All-Purpose Garden Fertilizer to feed roses, deciduous shrubs and perennials.
  • Monitor your gardens and plants throughout your yard.  Look for pests, abnormal growths or something that does not look right.  Bring a sample in to us (in a baggie) and we can help you address the situation before the problem multiplies or kills your plants.
  • Be sure to monitor the temperature… if frost or cold weather is in the forecast, protect your tender plants with mulch, light cloth or some type of overnight protection.  Be sure to remove the protection as soon as the danger is over or your plants will bake in the sun.

Check out our pots, ceramics, bird baths, fountains, statues & many other garden accents.

Motion Picture Heritage Corporation
A group of Shelbyville  movie enthusiasts have announced the creation of  a not for profit company “MOTION PICTURE HERITAGE CORPORATION” dedicated to the restoration and operation of classic movie venues.  Their first acquisition is our very own Skyline Drive-In. The company was created as a way to sustain classic film going and the drive-in movie experiences for today’s movie going public.

"The Skyline Drive-In is about so much more than just the movie that we wanted to educate people about what they are missing out on," Joe Gaudin, local video producer and a founding member of Motion Picture Heritage  According to Gaudin, the fear that the Skyline would cease operation, prompted the group to begin coming together and begin to rebuild the Skyline to its former grandeur. "We just want everyone in Shelbyville and the surrounding counties to know that the Skyline is alive and kicking. It is a whole family experience without any hassles or need for a babysitter.  In a lot of ways the Skyline to me was what growing up in Shelbyville was all about."

To that end, The Skyline is being re-fitted to bring back the 1950’s Drive-In experience. Uniformed concession workers, retro re-fitting of the drive in and Rock and Roll are the order to the day. “We want to give families a classic drive-in experience, we want going to movies fun again” says Gaudin.

"We've been really amazed that Shelbyville as a whole cares passionately about this Drive-In" says Angie Caudhill, the volunteer manager of The Skyline. "So many people have chipped in to bring this dream to reality; starting with Dick Delaney, Jim DeWitt and Patti DeWitt we owe them such a debt of thanks. 

The Skyline opens up on May 8th, and a summer of fun is planned culminating with The B Movie Celebration being held in Shelbyville September 25th-27th.

 The Skyline is looking for volunteers and community sponsors/partners to help the re-launch of the Old/New Skyline Drive-In.

Please contact joeyg@smashedproductions.net if interested.

The Chicken Inn
“NO PAIN…..NO GAIN”….That’s the philosophy we’re trying to maintain with regard to our current traffic situation.  Our community has all been affected by the road construction; individuals facing delays and traffic jams and many businesses seeing a downturn in sales as a result.  However, this is progress and our traffic flow and accessibilities should see substantial improvements at the completion.  In the interim, we have tried to plan our business accordingly through staffing changes and faster turnaround times during limited lunch hours, etc.  We appreciate our customers’ efforts in getting around these temporary obstacles and will continue to try and make your entrance and exits as “painless” as possible.

We hope you can join us for Mothers Day.  No reservations required. 

Our specials are as follows:
Fresh Green Salad
Broasted Chicken or Chicken & Noodles
Mashed Potatoes & Gravy
Corn, Green Beans or California Blend
Dinner Roll
Soft Drink or Iced Tea
Dessert Variety
(Homemade cobblers, cakes, Strawberry Shortcake and “NEW” Burst o’ Berries Cobbler)
$9.95
