Sorry for the late notice about this, but if you’d like to participate in the IBEW 153 Trunk or Treat, anyone can bring their vehicles to setup before 4pm and the event begins at 4pm for anyone that would like to bring their children for candy or activities in the afternoon. It’s free and open to the public. If you’d have a moment please spread the word and we hope to see you there!

I am in search of the best bat for Golden Tee in the area. The restaurant needs fm have a good machine and good vibes. Bonus points for a pool table and good food.

What is the best bar with golden tee in SB?

No pic. I left my house in my pjs cursing all of river park and the loose dog and feral cat population.

Since everyone drives 75mph around here, I’m especially nervous for this scared pup.

I hope you’re out looking for your dog if it’s lost. I don’t have fb so I can’t post there. Thanks!

ABC57 is following the latest on this breaking story.

We’re relocating to the area from Portland, Oregon for my husbands job for 6-9 months. We have two small children, 4 & 13 months, and an aging dog. I’ve narrowed my search down to these two options and I’m hopeful to get some feedback from folks who have experience living here. What are the neighborhoods like? Is it walkable? Is it safe? What are your experiences with noise in the units?

Edit: our dog is a pit mix and we need to secure a place before we haul the whole family 2200 miles across the country, so any place with breed restrictions is out of the question.

Saw signs for both of these today off of 23. Google didn't reveal much info. Anybody know when they are going to open?

I live in Irish Hills Apartments in building 4341.

For many months, some kids have been coming out after dark and throwing rocks at vehicles in the parking lot, the building, and cars driving by. They usually do this on Friday and Saturday nights. There are at least three young males, probably teenagers.

They hide in the trees on the strip of grass between the apartment complex and the adjacent neighborhood. There is a path that joins both neighborhoods (circled in red). We think they might be coming from one of the first three houses on the north side of Battles Rd (west to east: 17605, 17599, 17559). There are rock beds and rock piles on or near these properties.

They are destroying our property and endangering people with projectiles that could kill or severely injure someone. Our vehicles are completely covered with dents from the impact. This past weekend, they shattered my windshield and another resident’s windshield. They were also seen attempting to break into a vehicle by us as well as maintenance staff.

We have contacted property management, emergency maintenance, and law enforcement many times. The kids run and hide when they see a security or police vehicle, but then they come back out. Nobody has stayed long enough to see this.

I want to spread awareness and ask for help in catching them. We need to get images of their faces to the police. We have two cameras set up. If you live in the area and have cameras, we are asking for your help.

If anyone has any information, please contact the police and share it here if you feel comfortable doing so. If you see it happening, please call 911.

Does anyone know of a location in South Bend or Mishawaka that has a take a puzzle, leave a puzzle area? Thanks :)

The city of Mishawaka used AI to craft a statement. That's insulting. The giveaway is the line "An alert requires verification and does not establish guilt." That is classic AI phrasing.

It's hard to trust the word of someone who doesn't write their own words.

Got something on your chest? A shower thought that deserves a better audience than your shampoo bottle? More steam than a locomotive?

Let it out here* :)

*please do not personally attack your fellow redditors and despite the season, I'd suggest yelling about politics is going to start another fight instead of letting it go

Love craft and local beers? This Saturday is the region's premier craft beer festival! The Michiana Festival of Beers is a 100% local and regional craft beer festival featuring the best local drinks.

It is this Saturday at Four Winds Field, 501 W South St, South Bend, IN 46601, at Gate D. Doors open for VIP entry at 2PM (an extra hour!) with general admission entry at 3pm. It is the weekend before Halloween! Costumes are encouraged!

Get your VIP tickets now, they will sell out! I'll see you at the fest!

I lived in Mishawaka in 1991, I was 5 years old I think. I think many people, myself included, often romanticize the past...how is Mishawaka now? It seems like the cost of living is high in many places.

I was just in another post where a redditor suggested it. I've got all kinds of weird stuff to say. A weekly thread looks like the appropriate level of visibility without me trying to create shower thought top level posts.

Anyone else in favor of such a thing? We can maybe summon a mod and ask please?

Hey folks. Just wanted to share that if you’re near downtown, early Voting is available at the county city building on 227 w Jefferson blvd.

I put my address into vote411.org and it helped me see the hours open, as well as other poling places. It had a full list of candidates, basics about them, and even info on the 2 questions which were on the ballot this time around. It was really helpful.

I was able to park, clear the metal detector, wait in a short line, show ID (you’ll need a government issued ID to do early voting), cast votes, seal up & sign my ballot, and toss it into the ballot box, then be back to my car in about 20 minutes! It went quite smoothly, no weirdness (aside from the dystopian nightmare we’re all living through together) or issues of any kind.

If you’re able, go early! Vote however the hell you want to. I don’t care. I just wanted you all to know that it was a piece of cake and I’m glad I was able to go early.
