Thank you to Mishawaka Historical Museum for hosting today's Morning at the Museum behind-the-scenes excursion! Guests learned about Mishawaka's heritage & history. Plus, they enjoyed free Bonnie Doon Ice Cream courtesy of museum president Pete De Kever.🍦 mishawakamuseum.org

If you've driven by the museum in the past week, you may have noticed we changed our look. Last week, the old awning was removed by Custom Awning. The new awning will feature our name, logo, and colors (maroon & white). We will also soon have a new roof and a fresh coat of paint!
We're so excited to see what was going on in Mishawaka! What will you be looking for?

Happy #PiDay! The warmer weather this week is making us hungry for strawberry pie - the way the ladies from the Ball-Band factory made it in 1949. Do you see any names you know? Image credit: Red Ball Magazine, 7/15/1949. SJCPL Michiana Memory
The stonework is originally from Petro Park, which was absorbed by the golf course. Has anyone had a chance to see it?

Discovered more 1930s WPA stonework along Willow Creek at Eberhart GC as part of routine ditch maintenance. Unearthed an island, fork of creek, stone bridge & cobble paths. One of a kind, historic treasures made by Mishawaka citizens. So cool! Thanks County Drainage for work.
Happy Valentine's Day to all Mishawakans, near and far ♥️ We love you and we appreciate all your support over the last few years.
We're back! Want a sneak peek at what's going on in our building? The artifact platforms have been constructed and painted. The floor is being installed. The large platform on wheels will hold Don Heirman's model train set, one of our signature features. We can't wait to open!
We're very curious! 👀

Missile inbound headed to Mishawaka! No need to sound air raid signals or take cover. Our crews have successfully secured, loaded & transported our TALOS missile back to the Princess City where it was built. Look for it to be refurbed & put on permanent display somewhere soon.
So exciting for Mishawaka! 👏🍿🩷🚀

See Spot run. Run Spot run. Zerna Sharp of Clinton County, Indiana, author of the famous "Dick and Jane" series that helped elementary students learn to read, was born on this day in 1889. I remember reading those books while attending Mary Phillips Elementary in Mishawaka.

Nine members of Ball-Band’s girls basketball team pose for this 1926 photo, taken at Kaylor Studio in Mishawaka, IN. Athletic teams served as a means for companies to advertise, show off their employees, and compete with local rivals. #ALookBack #WomensHistoryMonth
About 1872, a musical convention was held in South Bend. The photo shows the assembled delegation & friends in front of the First Baptist Church at the SE corner of Main & Jefferson Streets. Included in the picture is Schuyler Colfax, shown in the middle of the second row.
Come on down to City Hall tonight at 6 for my annual State of the City presentation. We’ll talk about what’s happening in the Princess City, recap the year & unveil some future plans. I’m going off script so you never know what will come out. Hopefully I won’t get slapped!

Mishawaka knows how to do big projects. We’re about to do one of our biggest. City looking to buy, demo, clean & redevelop former Dodge/RMG site turned industrial wasteland. People might think us crazy for taking this on but it needs done & will only get done right if we do it.
Discovered more 1930s WPA stonework along Willow Creek at Eberhart GC as part of routine ditch maintenance. Unearthed an island, fork of creek, stone bridge & cobble paths. One of a kind, historic treasures made by Mishawaka citizens. So cool! Thanks County Drainage for work.
Heard rumors that a time capsule existed in the base of Soldiers & Sailors monument at Battell Park decades ago. We let crews know to be on the lookout & sure enough, a time capsule was discovered. It’s battered but in one piece. Now to figure out a cool way to open it.
