For my 100th Review I needed to pick a very special place, and I think I have found it…read more My parents recently moved to Marion and every time I drive there I pass this place. The sign says Round Robins Bingo Barn. Intrigued, I swore that the next time I was visiting my parents I would stop in and play. And so I did. I was completely overwhelmed by what I walked in to. I would say at least 200 people were sitting in a huge room playing game after game of bingo. We got there a bit late and had to be caught up by the "professionals" but we caught on in no time at all. For $12 you get something like 10 games with 18 cards in each plus you can add an extra bingo card here and there for a dollar. 3 games of the night are with $1000 and then they have a few $300 games. We didn't realize what a commitment we were signing up for. We were there for at least 2 hours and still had games to play. Playing Bingo really makes a girl hungry and unfortunately they didnt have a kitchen at the time, you can buy sodas and snacks and if you are really hungry you can have pizza delivered. Those people really had the right idea. Unfortunately we didn't win any games that night but I can honestly say that was the most entertainment I have had in Marion Indiana.

This is a nice hall but if you like pull tabs you will need to sit in sections E and F. Most…read moreticlets are sold back there because they come from the window located back there and workers dont get a chance to start anywhere else. It would be nice for fair play if ALL of their workers didn't start there, maybe a couple on one end and a couple start the other end of the hall and work inward. This post is so nobody will lose all their money. At least they dont go haywire with the family and friends hitting all the time.

This small town festival packs a ton of fun during the annual three day event. We went early Sunday…read moremorning to avoid crowds. Many of the vendors weren't opened yet, but we found plenty to see and do. The information staff is friendly with great maps and programs of the festival guides. They explained that Saturday night was busy at the fair with several live concerts and carnival rides running late into the evening. The carnival rides and game booths looked sparkling new, colorful and clean. I wished I had brought my granddaughters. On Sunday, you could by a "band" and get to ride everything for one price. There was one booth with locally made glass paperweights. Elwood is famous for glass making for well over 130 years. The festival offered free tours of two local glass shops. The tours were short, only 10 minutes at each stop, but you could drive back over to the shops after the tour. I was hoping to see more glass at the actual festival with information on the Elwood history. There were many booths filled with carnival-type trinkets, local crafts and food. But the best part was a long line of food trucks. There was every type of food, coffee and summer beverages imaginable. The smell of bacon frying filled the air. Since it was early, I grabbed some biscuits and gravy from the Quincy Masonic Lodge truck. The guys in the truck were jovial and fun. I ate my breakfast at nearby picnic tables. They were delicious and stuck to my ribs. Food prices were unbelievably reasonable. There was an outdoor pavilion where concerts and other events happened. Nearby restrooms were available. Admission and parking were free. There was close parking on Sunday morning, but I'm sure parking was a challenge on Saturday. It was easy to get around the park. People are friendly. The festival is worth the visit.

The Elwood Glass Festival is an underrated festival based in Elwood, Indiana, a relatively small…read morecommunity located in both Madison and Tipton Counties and organized by the Elwood Chamber of Commerce. Despite having existed for 50 years (51 in 2022), the Elwood Glass Festival seems rather modestly known outside the Madison and Tipton County areas. I only heard of it because of a friend who lives in the Elwood area. It gave me the opportunity to more fully explore a part of the state that I've never really visited. The festival is a tribute to the unique, beautifully crafted hand-blown art-glass produced throughout the Elwood community since the earliest days of the Indiana Gas Boom, more than 100 years ago. It's held during the third weekend of August from Friday-Sunday and includes a parade, carnival rides, bus tours, food, collectibles, demonstrations, and contests. The festival is crowded but manageable and most Indianapolis festival-goers will likely consider it fairly modest compared to some Indy fests. The crowd was friendly when I attended and accessibility is fairly solid with the obvious exception of some of the carnival rides. The glass festival is considered family friendly and admission is free. The festival takes place in Callaway Park, an Elwood city park that is rather nice sized. The Elwood Glass Festival also includes The Vintage Rollers Car Show that brings more than 300 classic and antique cars each year along with live bands and other entertainment at the Jim Knoop Amphitheater inside Callaway Park. Free bus tours are available daily and include stops at Carol's Legacy Glass and the Historic Elwood Opera House. Both of these are worth the short trip up from Indy. The Elwood Glass Festival is only about an hour North of Indy if that. It's an easy drive and a great day trip with Anderson about 30 minutes from Elwood. This is definitely a festival worth putting on the family calendar.

If you…read moredon't live in "Loganland", you probably don't know what they are doing or who the "big name" celebrity coming.

Their price for years was $5 per person, and they recently raised the price to $6. Still a great bargain for first run movies. Their concessions are very reasonably priced as well. They have replaced all the seats which is a big improvement. A nice upgrade! There is a parking lot and plenty of street parking too. Always a nice, low-stress experience at Diana Theater.
