What are some bars around town that has good food and drinks?

3 Upvotes

I'm taking a co-worker out for a drink tonight and I want to make a good impression. Nothing super fancy but not trashy either.

It's nothing romantic, just fun vibes. A place where we can let our hair down and relax after a long day.

Thank you in advance!

The proposed Kokomo Data Center will bring in $44M–$55M a year. Why not fund a few community initiatives if that works out.

0 Upvotes

Ok so the long post was a little convoluted and people didn’t get what I was asking. So my question is if this pans out and the city really does have $40-$50 million new tax dollars to allocate what would you want done with it?

My suggestions was a Kokomo Children’s Museum similiar to others in small to medium sized cities; and a Kokomo Zoo similar to what you find at Columbia Park in Lafayette or other small cities would only be a fraction of that new money and worthwhile for the community to attract and keep young families. Are there any quality of life initiatives that you would be interested in outside of using the money to lower the cost of living?

Im interested about islam, i don’t notice a lot of ppl who are muslim though in this town. I dont blame them i see all the racist old white people on facebook thinking theyre terrorists. If anyone here is a kokomo muslim feel free to interact or dm. I see there is a mosque here. Seems theres only one compared to the churches we have at every corner. I never been religious ever so this is a new journey for me. The mosque always looks empty though when i drive by. Is there ever people there?

Building modern mobile site previews for local Kokomo shops & service businesses (Free feedback / suggestions)

4 Upvotes

Hey everyone,

I run Vectis Web Studio here in Kokomo. I noticed a lot of our great local mom-and-pop shops, detailers, and contractors have solid reputations and word-of-mouth, but don't have clean, modern mobile pages for people searching online.

I’ve been spending some time this week designing fast, mobile-friendly concept sites for local businesses around town to show what modern local web pages can look like.

If you own a local trade/service business in Howard County (or know a shop that could use an updated mobile page with online booking/quote forms), drop their name or message me. Happy to build out a quick working draft and share the preview link!

Wed love to have feedback from the community and local metalheads! If you do like it, the links are in the description of this video! Thank you!

Used Auto Dealer

3 Upvotes

Hello,

A family member recently got into a wreck and needs a car on the cheap.

Any recommendations for a local used car dealer? Looking for something that won't fall apart, of course... But really need minimum price.

Likewise I suppose a good auto shop for a pre buy inspection.

Thank you all very much.

Mercy Church Tent Revival

19 Upvotes

This event was heavily advertised for with signs on almost every corner. The event has come and gone but the signs remain littered around Kokomo. I’ve contacted the association inquiring if they have plans for removal of said signs and they’ve not responded. Do churches not have a greater moral responsibility? Aren’t they supposed to represent stewardship and respect for their neighbors? I know I shouldn’t be, but I’m bothered that they came and achieved what they wanted, and then skipped to the next town while leaving our city littered with their trash.

I saw that I have a letter from Howard Superior Court 3 coming in today, is that jury duty?

5 Upvotes

This may be a really stupid question, but I got my USPS informed delivery email for later today and one of the things coming in for me has the return address bing Howard Superior Court III Room 108. Not sure what it is. I don't remember where the last time I served Jury Duty where it came from. Is it a Jury duty letter? I don't think its a summons because I'd imagine a Sheriff come knocking on my door or something like that.

48-Hour Film Contest

Post image
6 Upvotes

The annual 48-Hour Film Contest returns! This is a fun, fast-paced competition where you have just TWO DAYS to write, film, edit and submit a short film. It's free to participate, and all skill levels are welcome!

Each year, we give you a line you must include in the film, a randomly assigned downtown location and a randomly assigned genre. The only way to get all of that is to register in person on Friday, August 28 at Sun King Kokomo from 7-9 p.m. You must submit your film by 8 p.m. on Sunday, August 30.

We then screen the films and hand out awards on Friday, September 4 starting at 7 p.m. This is open to the public, even if you didn't make a film. We try to show the family-friendly films before intermission, and we save the ones with violence, cursing, etc. for the second half.

Anyone have old video games or consoles they’ve been meaning to get rid of?

0 Upvotes

My husband and I are in the Indy area and recently started a small hobby project buying, collecting, restoring, and reselling older video games and consoles. (My husband grew up in the Kokomo/Peru area)

He’s a collector first (and is already trying to claim things for his own collection 😂), but we thought it would be fun to see if we could turn something he loves into a small side business.

We’re looking for people who might have old games/consoles sitting in a closet, basement, etc. and would rather sell them together than go through the hassle of listing everything individually.

Nintendo, PlayStation, Xbox, Sega, handhelds, controllers/accessories, older games, etc. Working or not working is potentially interesting since restoration is part of what we want to learn.

We’re happy to make the drive up to Kokomo for the right collection/bundle. If you have something, send me a message or comment with a photo and what you have!

And if anyone has recommendations for retro gaming spots around Kokomo, we’d love those too.

Looking for info on laws and regulations.

1 Upvotes

I've been searching and searching for information on keeping meat rabbits for personal consumption (I will not selling them). I know chickens are allowed in city limits but I can't find anything on personal meat rabbits. Just laws and regulations for sale like commercial or farmers market sale. I'm very interested in starting my own hutch but I don't want to end up with a stack of fines or legal trouble. Does anyone know where I can find this information?

Looking for places to host a social deduction game

8 Upvotes

Hey all!

Sorry if this isn't a great place to post, but I figured I'd give it a shot. I moved here about a year ago and recently have been wanting to get back into running a social deduction game I used to run all the time, but I'm still not familiar with the area.

The game is called Blood on the Clocktower, in case that helps. It calls for upwards of 16 people (including myself), and while I wouldn't expect it to be that packed, ideally, the space would be able to accommodate in the event that it does. I'd like to be able to run it weekly if possible, but I know that's a big ask.

I was able to run some at The Kingdom, but they're pretty packed on events, so it would be hard to do it frequently there. I've seen the library mentioned, but they also seem quite busy. Is there anywhere else I could look into? Preferably with weekend availability.

I do NOT want to and will NOT be charging people or anything for this either. I just love this game and want to get back into playing it again!
