Pine Haven Health and Rehabilitation Center, 3400 Stocker Drive in Evansville, is having their annual Scholarship Golf Scramble on October 18 at Helfrich Hills Golf Course starting at 8am.

The scholarship benefits Mater Dei and Reitz students majoring in healthcare. There will be team prizes, and lunch will be provided.

This semester, the University of Southern Indiana, through the Office of International Programs and Studies, is providing a temporary home for exchange students from all three of Evansville’s sister cities,  Tizimín, Mexico; Osnabrück, Germany; and Tochigi, Japan.

Teachers and children in the Children’s Learning Center at the University of Southern Indiana have developed and maintained an organic vegetable garden outside of their building on campus.

The center's teachers planted a garden many years ago but lacked funding to restart one. In spring 2012, USI Children’s Learning Center Manager Amanda Wheaton-Collins researched and ultimately received a Subaru Healthy Sprouts Award that provided them with seeds, literature, and a $500 gift certificate to Gardening with Kids to purchase supplies. With guidance and advice from parents, USI employees who are also Master Gardners, and community volunteers, plans were made to establish an organic vegetable garden that the children could help to plant and maintain as well as watch grow on a daily basis.
