We have been applying ourselves to the mission of recording and distributing local music from our home base at Rainwater Studios. This music can be found here on Facebook, on SoundCloud and on our YouTube channel. Originally the studio was a rehearsal space for Kenan Rainwater’s band RAINWATER. After connecting to the world with fiber optic internet, we began sharing live performances. Now we work with dozens of performers from Central Indiana while honing our craft and striving to bring you the best our region has to offer.

After winning a brawl with a lawless character, he is offered the job of marshal. With eyes for the mayor’s daughter, he accepts and begins cleaning up the town, though it is not long before Egan’s past catches up to him.

Bring Us Your Weeds!

We will have a team of experts identify your worst invasive plant species and give you advice on how to control them. Register at http://mc-iris.org/sustaining-nature-and-your-land-day.html to get the Zoom link, and to upload pictures of your weed. You can also register and show us the weed while we are on the Zoom call if you like.

Enjoy the 1 minute video on MC-IRIS below and check our calendar for upcoming events.

Invasive plants harm pollinators, wildlife, and rare species.  And they cost money – $15 billion/year nationally! They can reduce your ability to enjoy hunting, fishing, mushroom collecting, bird-watching and other recreational pursuits.

Not sure if you have invasive plants on your land?  Or what to do about them if you do?  Learn more here about how to apply for a free invasive plant survey of your land.
