Just moved here and liking it a lot so far. Is there any house show/DIY/bar band scene going on that I could tap into? With a big college in town I feel like there must be something, just havent figured out how to look for that kind of thing. Any info appreciated
I didn't even get a chance to try it :(
Our household has six people, 3000 square feet, and two electric cars. We keep the AC set around 73 degrees. Our bill from AEP is generally close to $400/month. Is this as extreme as it feels? FWIW, we didn't notice a huge increase in our bill when we moved to electric vehicles.

Got to see the the train that came in from Canada to celebrate the 250th. Also, go to see inside of union station and that was pretty cool.
Hi! I’ve seen a couple studios in the area offer wheel thrown pottery beginner classes, mainly Fire Arts and Make South Bend. Does anyone have any personal experiences with each of these studios? Or other recommendations based on personal experience?

Hi! I’d like to learn how to two step. Are there any honky tonks or line dancing bars that have lessons? Or anyone you know provide two step lessons? Appreciate any leads!
Apparently negligence is in play.
NIPSCO has allegedly been raising rates, paying dividends, and ignoring proper protocol for vegetation management for years.
Sounds like a #ClassAction may be on its way.
Ivy Alley Social House and Bucket Head Brewing in South Bend has closed, again. The restaurant and duck pin bowling venue opened on 12/19/2025. They released their first house brewed beers on 2/14. They then announced they were closing on 5/10 to only quickly reverse course and announce revised hours on 5/16. It appears that they have now permanently closed as of early August. Their Facebook page has been deleted, they are listed as permanently closed on Google, and their last Instagram post and Untappd check ins were in June. They were open as a brewery for 6 months.
Hi there!
I’d love to play some DnD (or any TTRPG) but I know it would be hard for me currently to commit to a long term campaign.
Wanted to see if there are groups, or anyone interested in starting a group, that run some one-shots or 2-3 session short games.
I got some sourdough chocolate chip cookies very early in my pregnancy from someone at a craft show. I have no recollection of who it was or where they are located, but I am desperate for some more of those cookies. Googling has done little for me, all I can find is regular cookies. Can anyone help!?
I'd try to make them, but I can't stand for very long and I want them now, not in the hours it'll take for me to try to make sourdough when I've never made it before and I don't think my hormones would accept the failure very easily if I do it wrong.
Saw the WNDU story today about locals and residents wanting answers and solutions regarding the noise, shenanigans, and violence within ESC. Last weekends shooting of 3ppl at 1am has a lot of people upset. But going back at least the past 3-4 years, there's always been trouble thanks to Notre Dame events and teens/early 20-30 somethings always causing trouble. Curious what others thoughts are for solutions since the WNDU story just featured older people complaining about the area and the people it attracts. Part of me wants to side with them, but anywhere these days has these same issues. Bad people ruin it for everyone else. There's no real answer since it can happen basically anywhere these days...
Can anyone offer honest feedback?
I'm considering going to check this place out today and wanted to know what to expect.
Anyone wanna meet there for Friday shenanigans?

Simply put, a derecho is nature's straight-line wrecking ball.
I don’t go out for breakfast too much, but I just got curious. Who has the best breakfast sandwich in the Bend?
