The Crossroads of America is ready for its close-up and bursting with pride as the Indiana State Bar enthusiastically hosts the 2014 NABE Communications Section Workshop Oct. 1-3 in the capital city of the great state of Indiana! Regarded as a big city with a “small town” heart, Indianapolis is more than “the greatest spectacle in racing” (at which 15,000 gallons of beer are consumed at the world’s largest single-day sporting event, the Indy 500). We have 10 amateur sports headquarters, including the NCAA; 200 parks; a 8-mile urban cultural trail loaded with public art; a river and a canal; the largest children’s museum in the world; a wonderful zoo; and the most walkable downtown in America, according to Peter King of Sports Illustrated. Speaking of sports, our pro teams are the Colts, the Pacers, the Fever (WNBA) and the Indians (minor league baseball) as well as our newly minted Indy Eleven soccer team. We even have pro hockey in the heartland! Our fair city is second only to Washington, D.C., in the number of monuments and memorials dedicated to our nation’s veterans. In fact, Indianapolis was designed by the architect who assisted in the layout of our nation’s capital. Also here: the third largest cemetery in the nation – in which one U.S. president is buried, Benjamin Harrison, who, coincidentally, was the ISBA’s first president in 1896. “Fun fact”: Crown Hill Cemetery has buried the most U.S. vice presidents, which, according to what we’ve read, is likely more significant than their vice presidencies. Indianapolis is hometown to Jane Pauley, Dave Letterman, John Dillinger, Kurt Vonnegut and Scott Jones – he invented voicemail. We are also home to the Slippery Noodle Inn, the oldest continuously operating bar in the state of Indiana, having opened in 1850 as an inn that served as a stop on the Underground Railroad during the Civil War and later as a brothel. It’s a blues bar now and has two bullets lodged into one of its walls, courtesy of the aforementioned trigger-happy John Dillinger, who, by the way, is buried in Crown Hill Cemetery. There’s also St. Elmo Steak House of Amy Poehler’s Parks & Recreation fame and its infamous shrimp cocktail, operating since 1902. The highest point in Indianapolis (pre-unification of city & county governments) was at the previously mentioned a lot Crown Hill Cemetery, where a beloved Indiana poet is buried, James Whitcomb Riley. Not a pharmaceutical giant or a war hero or even a U.S. president, but a poet. Indianapolis’ heart is in the right place, and it’s the perfect host city for communicators to gather this fall. The late Kurt Vonnegut may have said it best about our hometown: “All my jokes are Indianapolis. All my attitudes are Indianapolis. My adenoids are Indianapolis. If I ever severed myself from Indianapolis, I would be out of business. What people like about me is Indianapolis.” Welcome to NABECOMM Workshop 2014! Co-Chairs of the 2014 NABECOMM Workshop Susan Ferrer, ISBA Director of Communications Carissa Long, ISBA Director of Public Relations & Social Media James Whitcomb Riley burial site at Crown Hill Cemetery Source: VisitIndy.com, Indy 500 Experiences to Love booklet.
