IndyFringe Theatre and Fest – An Indy love of mine

When we started DoItIndy in 2010 a theatre and its shows hit my radar very quickly – IndyFringe. I love to look back at the first IndyFringe Winter Magic Festival which is where I met Pauline Moffat, executive director. I didn’t know it at the time but that would be the start of an amazingContinue reading “IndyFringe Theatre and Fest – An Indy love of mine”

Bands 4 Boobies 2013

My good friend, Shawn June (writer of the DoItIndy theme song) called me up a few weeks ago and told me about a new charity show. Bands 4 Boobies. He asked if I might be interested in being involved and helping spread the word and have the crew help emcee. I was completely sold onContinue reading “Bands 4 Boobies 2013”

Brackets for Good in Indy

When I was a child my father used to volunteer for the Madison County (Anderson, Indiana) American Red Cross chapter. I remember being 10 or 11 years old and helping him with a ducky derby race along the White River. My dad looked at me and said, “You always have to help out Son. NoContinue reading “Brackets for Good in Indy”

#MTFW at Roundpeg

I recently had the opportunity to chat social media and community events with Lorraine Ball of Roundpeg. Social Media is a complex tactic that can really make or break your event or community outing. The talk went to several local Indy organizations, pics, postings and more. We chatted up DoItIndy, Indy Fringe Theatre Festival andContinue reading “#MTFW at Roundpeg”

We had a fantastic time getting hot shaves at Red’s Classic Barber Shop and then drinking some Stiff Upper Lip (official beer of Movember Indy 2012) at Sun King Brewing Company on the 1st of the month. We truly do love Movember and growing our moustaches for men’s health and prostate cancer. Wild Bill ofContinue reading “Movember 1st, 2012 #MoIndy12”

Movember and my Moustache

Movember is awesome. I found out about the charity last year and I’ve been hooked ever since. Through genetics that my father blessed me with, I have the ability to grow hair like an adolescent wookie, so my moustache is BIG. My dad is an inspiration to my moustache too, he rocked one for overContinue reading “Movember and my Moustache”

Indianapolis Humane Society’s – Mutt Strut 2012

I really love dogs – I grew up with a dog and now I have my own beautiful girl, Nala. Last year we covered Mutt Strut with DoItIndy and walked Nala on the track of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. Had a fun time. SO…DoItIndy partnered with the humane society to give something back to YOUContinue reading “Indianapolis Humane Society’s – Mutt Strut 2012”

Goodbye to Movember and my mustache for 2011!

What a wild 12 weeks it was with a mustache! I never thought it would bring as many discussions, looks and laughs. Sporting a mustache in 2011 just isn’t the normal thing to do. Especially a very long mustache as the one I had grown. I am very happy to say that we raised aContinue reading “Goodbye to Movember and my mustache for 2011!”
