📰 News we're reading

• Zionsville Parks Department could take over Maplelawn Farmstead operations (youarecurrent.com) — Zionsville's parks department is poised to take over daily operations of the historic Maplelawn Farmstead on Whitestown Road, with a key board vote expected in November. The move would shift the aging volunteer board into an advisory role, expand events like weddings and period programs, and tap grants to help preserve the 1930s-era farmstead as part of the town's park system.
