Town of Plainfield

Did you catch the recent WRTV feature on Visit Hendricks County? It’s a great reminder of the powerful impact tourism has right here in our community! According to Jaime Bohler Smith with Visit Hendricks County, local tourism saves each Hendricks County household an average of $676 in taxes. That’s thanks to the spending from visitors who shop, dine, stay, and experience all the wonderful things our community has to offer — including our very own Hendricks Live!, Inc. The story spotlighted how Plainfield's new performing and fine arts center is playing a key role in boosting tourism, creating jobs, and fueling economic growth across the county. We're proud to see Plainfield's investments making a difference not only locally, but regionally. https://lnkd.in/ghn8pkU8

Lindsey consistently goes above and beyond—not for recognition, but because she takes immense pride in her work and her role in serving the community. Lindsey fosters a positive work environment, demonstrating exceptional leadership and quick decision-making under pressure.

Lindsey, your contributions do not go unnoticed, and the Town of Plainfield is incredibly grateful for your dedication. Thank you for setting the bar for excellence in public service!
