“Hoosier Hysteria” Knightstown: Home of Indiana Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Children’s Home, Hoosier Youth Challenge Academy and Hoosier Gym 2019 Annual Conference French Lick, IN “HOOSIER HYSTERIA” STATE OF INDIANA Eric J. Holcomb OFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR Governor State House, Second Floor Indianapolis, Indiana 46204 Greetings, It is a pleasure to welcome everyone to the 2018 National Guard Association of Indiana’s State Conference. Thank you to National Guard members and the National Guard Association staff and volunteers who helped to organize this year’s conference. Every day, we recognize the sacrifice that our service members and their families make for our country, but their unrivaled commitment, work ethic and passion which protects us also plays a vital role in communities throughout our great state. As we continue to take Indiana to the Next Level, we will do everything we can to ensure that Hoosier heroes have the opportunity to grow their family roots here, pursue their dreams and find success in the next career chapter of their lives. I join Hoosiers all across the state in thanking you for the sacrifices that you make to keep us safe. Indiana is dedicated to continue supporting veterans both overseas and here at home. Sincerely, 1 The Adjutant General of Indiana Maj. Gen. Courtney P. Carr I am truly excited and honored to welcome you to your National Guard Association of Indiana (NGAI) Annual Conference. It is such a privilege to serve as your Adjutant General, and I appreciate the opportunity to attend this outstanding event with you! Your attendance here and membership in NGAI ensures we have a credible advocate for well deserved benefits, equipment re- capitalization, modernization and parity. Also, attendance at your NGAI conference will give us all the opportunity to hear the vision of senior leaders from our State and Nation and learn of the issues that affect our readiness. Indiana Guardsmen have always been selfless contributors to our Community, State and Nation and your attendance at this conference is a testament to that selflessness. So, I sincerely appreciate the time and resources you have sacrificed to be here and I’m sure you will gain knowledge and understanding of how membership in NGAI will contribute to your overall professional development as Soldiers and Airmen. NGAI is our State organization and we work with Indiana’s legislatures on issues that benefit Indiana’s service members. We also work at the national level with the National Guard Association of the United States (NGAUS) and the Enlisted Association National Guard of the United States (EANGUS). I currently serve as the NGAUS Area 5 TAG Representative and Colonel Matt Brown from the 181st Intelligence Wing, serves as the NGAUS Area 5 Air Representative. This gives our State Organization significant insight and advocacy for the important issues that affect our readiness, and there are several emergent issues that could significantly impact the National Guard - some positive and some negative. Collectively we must all be engaged to protect National Guard interests. I want to specifically recognize those Soldiers and Airmen in attendance today that are part of the Professional Development and Fellowship program. Each of you, today, play a critical leadership role in the Indiana Air and Army National Guard. What you learn from yesterday and today will hopefully shape you as a leader for tomorrow. So, here’s my recommendation: Take the time to get to know each other and learn about someone else’s unit and mission. Ask a senior leader a question that has been on your mind. Encourage your peers to participate and attend these important professional gatherings. Thank you all for being here and I am excited to spend this time with you! Courtney P. Carr 2 NGAI President Brig. Gen. L. Kip Clark Hoosier Hysteria is our theme for this year’s NGAI conference and it’s not only the perfect slogan to describe our State’s passion for basketball, it also represents your Association’s tireless commitment to Indiana Soldiers and Airmen. This conference is our “State Finals” and everyone is here; members, retirees, corporate partners, spouses and guests. While here, I hope everyone learns about the “points” that are being scored by your State and National associations and how your contribution is supporting our strategic readiness. Our corporate partners are the teammates we depend on from the opening tip to the final buzzer. We cannot win without their innovative products and services. Please take the time to visit with your corporate partners and learn about the talent and equipment they are bringing to the game! Without their commitment to our team, we will not be able to effectively meet our State and National level objectives. They have “game” and are critical to our team’s success. Successful teams are comprised of individuals with a selfless commitment to the mission and the teammates are inspired by a robust culture of comradery. I hope each of you experience that comradery by visiting the hospitality suites, golf, Friday night’s “Hoosier Hysteria” event, the business session, spouse and retiree events, and Formal dinner Saturday night. So, I humbly request that you take the time to immerse yourself into the activities and please don’t hesitate to give us some feedback! So, it’s the “State Finals”, the big game, and we are all teammates hoping we contribute to a victory and the fact is, just by you being here, you have scored points toward the strategic readiness of the Soldiers and Airmen of Indiana! It’s been my pleasure serving as your NGAI President over the last two years and Sheila and I look forward to enjoying this event with each of you. Hoosier Hysteria… it’s in our blood, Kip L.

Whether it is your Association or our newly established Foundation, the bottom line is taking care of Soldiers, Airmen and Families. The National Guard Association of Indiana (NGAI) and the National Guard Association of Indiana Foundation (NGAIF) are two independent, not-for-profit corporations, sharing common board officers and executive director, operating as a fully integrated organization in support of the Indiana National Guard and its mission. The mission, as set forth by the Association founders, rings true today as the Association serves and supports the United States, Indiana, the Indiana National Guard members alumni, families and friends together in support of the highest ideals of service and citizenship. With a primary focus on engagement, NGAI promotes informed advocacy for today’s Indiana National Guardsmen and our many constituents. While the benefits advocated for through Indiana legislation are a value to the individual member, the further goal is promoting Indiana as the state of choice for our Hoosier guardsmen, families, veterans and retirees. As a combined officer and enlisted organization, NGAI works closely with our national partners, EANGUS and NGAUS, advocating on Capitol Hill for their priorities. NGAIF, formed in 2016, set out to support the programs of NGAI through grants, fellowships and the award of benefits to members and families. The complementary mission of the foundation is to support, promote and advance the mission of NGAI by working in conjunction with leadership to identify strategic priorities, and by raising, managing and disbursing private gift funds that provide educational grants, leadership development fellowships

  • The First Indiana High School Basketball Tournament Champions 1911 Crawfordsville High School by S
    The First Indiana High School Basketball Tournament Champions 1911 Crawfordsville High School By S. Chandler Lighty In 1936, Dr. James Naismith, basketball’s inventor, attended the Indiana high school championship game between Frankfort and Fort Wayne Central. In his first exposure to Hoosier Hysteria, he recalled that the sight of the stadium “packed with fifteen thousand people, gave me a thrill I shall not soon forget.” During his visit, Naismith told an Indianapolis audience: “Basketball really had its beginning in Indiana which remains today the center of the sport.” Expanding upon this comment, Naismith associated Indiana’s national distinction in basketball with the popularity and success of the state high school basketball tournament.1 The Indiana high school basketball tournament began in 1911, when Crawfordsville High School (C.H.S.) defeated Lebanon High School for the state title. Yet, the history of the tournament and the first champion really began earlier. This article provides an historical examination of the first Indiana high school basketball champions’ season, and the beginning of one of Indiana’s most cherished cultural traditions. Crawfordsville High School won the first Indiana high school basketball tournament in 1911. The team included [front] Hugh “Buddy” Miller, [second row, starting on left] Carroll Stevenson, Orville Taylor, Captain Clio Shaw, Ben “Chick” Myers, Isaac “Newt” Hill, [back row] Coach David Glascock, and Grady Chadwick. Image source: https://sites.google.com/ site/wabashavenue/history In 1900, C.H.S. organized one of the earliest high school basketball teams in Indiana. Unfortunately, finding opponents in the nascent years of the sport in the Hoosier state often proved difficult.
