Calling All Hoosiers

By Valerie Doane for The Island Connection

Seabrook Island residents are preparing for the ninth annual Indiana Day on Dec. 11, celebrating the 203rd anniversary of the Hoosier State’s admittance into the Union on Dec. 11, 1816. 

The gathering has become an annual event including food, drinks, games, prizes and singing, all with a lot of Hoosier gusto. Participants – including spouses and significant others – are asked to bring a hearty appetizer to share. The organizing committee will provide plates, utensils and soft drinks – BYOB. 

Participants also are asked to donate $5 per person to cover the costs associated with the event.

 Indiana Day festivities will take place at the Oyster Catcher Community Center on Seabrook Island, from 6 p.m. until 8:30 p.m.

If you have a connection to Indiana, whether you were born, raised, lived or educated there or just traveled through – anything works – and would like to attend, please contact Max Willis at 843-768-8301 or mwillissc@yahoo.com.
