Good morning, Bloomington.

A month after a tornado heavily damaged People & Animal Learning Services, Executive Director Christine Herring said her team is checking the damage and planning next steps to reopen.

Photos from June 11 show fallen beams, damaged stables and scattered toys that mark the facility’s ongoing recovery.

An array of 500 U.S. flags was displayed along West 3rd Street in front of Ivy Tech Community College as part of a national program—each flag purchased to honor a veteran and raise funds for homeless veterans.

The display opened on June 14 and will remain until June 21 at 200 Daniels Way—a project hosted by the Exchange Club of Northside Bloomington in partnership with Ivy Tech.

Indiana University's Eskenazi Museum of Art has launched its Collections Online portal that lets visitors view over 47,000 pieces of artwork without coming in person.

Staff are working on improvements and welcome feedback as they plan to add images and expand published records by 2030.

Indiana football received the commitment of Parker Elmore, a Class of 2026 in-state prospect from Columbus North (6 feet 5 inches tall and weighing 225 pounds) who held offers from Kent State and Illinois State.

He missed recent seasons due to a torn ACL (suffered as a sophomore) and is expected to boost the team as IU builds on its College Football Playoff appearance.

Bloomington South seniors will compete in the IHSAA state golf finals at Prairie View in Carmel, marking their 39th appearance and fifth in a row (their best streak since 1996 to 2002).
