NEW INVASIVE SPECIES GROUP HOSTS WILDFLOWER WALK AND GARLIC MUSTARD PULL
The new Daviess-Martin Cooperative Invasive Species Management Area (CISMA) will host a free wildflower walk and garlic mustard identification/pull Saturday April 20 at 10AM at the Bluffs of Beaver Bend nature preserve. Anyone interested is invited to attend to learn to identify the wide variety of rare native plants growing along the roadway at the base of the bluffs and up into the rocks, as well as the invasive garlic mustard that threatens them. The roadway follows closely along the bluffs, so this walk will be handicapped accessible.
No reservations are required. The Bluffs are located just south of Shoals.
To reach the Bluffs, turn south from Highway 50 at the east end of the White River bridge, onto Water Street in downtown Shoals. Stay on this street/road for exactly one mile, passing the fire station and crossing the bridge over Beaver Creek. Stop immediately and park at Spout Springs. We will walk into the preserve from there. No
special equipment or clothing will be needed.
Karen Whorrall will lead the walk, which is expected to last about 45 minutes, for any questions contact Karen at
812-388-6639. For more information on this nature preserve visit the Indiana DNR website.

Acoustic guitarist Leo Kottke was born in Athens, Georgia, but left town after a year and a half. Raised in 12 different states, he absorbed a variety of musical influences as a child, flirting with both violin and trombone, before abandoning Stravinsky for the guitar at age 11.
Kottke has been awarded two Grammy nominations; a Doctorate in Music Performance by the Peck School of Music at the U of Wisconsin, Milwaukee; and a Certificate of Significant Achievement in Not Playing the Trombone from the U of Texas at Brownsville with Texas Southmost College.
Founded in 2008 by singers Mireya I. Ramos and Shae Fiol as New York City’s first all-women mariachi group, Flor de Toloache got their start performing as a harp, violin, and vihuela trio for subway riders. Today they perform as a full mariachi ensemble, featuring members who hail from Mexico, Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic, Cuba, Australia, Colombia, Germany, Italy and the continental United States. Their most recent album, Las Caras Lindas, won a Latin Grammy for Best Ranchero/Mariachi Album. In her review of the album, NPR’s Marisa Arbona-Ruiz said, “There should be fireworks named after this band, for all the intensity and color and life that bursts forth from Flor de Toloache.”

Film Screening: America to Me
Documentary Tackles Race in New Ways
Screening of an episode from America to Me, a documentary that opens the doors to a high school outside of Chicago, where students and teachers struggle to navigate crucial issues of race, identity, and education. The event will take place on Monday, April 22 from 6:30 pm to 8:30 p.m., at the Monroe County Public Library Auditorium, 303 E. Kirkwood, Bloomington.
A panel discussion will follow the screening featuring students, parents, and educators from the Bloomington community. Byron Turner, vice chairman of the City of Bloomington’s Commission on the Status of Black Males and 2018 MCCSC School Board candidate, will moderate the discussion.
The evening’s one-hour screening of Episode 6: Racial Identity Development is part of the 10-part America to Me docuseries from Steve James (Hoop Dreams) and follows students and faculty through the Oak Park-River Forest High School outside of Chicago to explore racial inequity from a different angle. The film is profound and thoughtful, taking a detailed look at inequality in America through the lens of a storied high school near Chicago.
This event is co-sponsored by the Community Committee on Educational Equity, Indiana Coalition for Public Education – Monroe County, and the IU Community of Teachers.
