ON THE COVER:

Farming is an important part of Southern In-diana’s heritage. The wide open fields, the farm-ers working the land, paint a pastoral picture of life in the region.

It’s a big part of who we are.Thankfully an annual event honors the hard

work that goes into putting food on our tables. Lanesville Heritage Weekend celebrates 40 years this weekend. The Friday-through-Sunday event is one of the area’s biggest festivals, pos-sibly drawing 80,000 people in a single day.

That’s a lot of bean soup down the hatch.Visitors can watch antique and reproduction farm

equipment demonstrate typical farm tasks such as thresh-ing wheat, baling hay or simply pumping water, Jenna Esarey writes in today’s cover story. For those not inter-ested in farm equipment, over 250 vendors set up shop on the 40-acre grounds, along with demonstrations of historical crafts, carnival rides, a parade, helicopter rides,

music and food.Special 40th anniversary items will be sold

this year, including glass mugs with the festival logo, Esarey writes.

And of course, there’s the iconic red Mail Pouch Tobacco barn.

The festival gives back to the community, too, providing money over the years to the local fire and police departments and the schools.

“This event has been passed down from gen-eration to generation,” chairman Kenny Acton

said. “I’ve been asked many times why it has been so successful for so many years. We’ve had people passion-ate for it. There’s consistency.”

Farmers would agree.

LANESVILLE — Celebrating its 40th anniversary, the Lanesville Heritage Weekend will lure thousands to its bucolic setting, complete with picturesque Mail Pouch

Tobacco barn, on the edge of the small Indiana town this weekend.

The three-day festival celebrates the role of Indiana farmers going back more than 100 years and features tractors and farm machinery, hit-and-miss engines, steam engines, saw mill demonstrations and more historical mechanized wonders.

Visitors can watch antique and reproduction farm equip-ment demonstrate typical farm tasks such as threshing wheat, baling hay or simply pumping water. A farm machine toy show is popular each year, as is the parade of antique tractors.

For those not interested in farm equipment, over 250 ven-dors set up shop on the 40-acre grounds, along with demon-strations of historical crafts, carnival rides, a parade, helicop-ter rides, music and food.

“The people in Lanesville are very proud to have this festival,” said Kenny Acton, who is serving as Lanesville Her-itage chairman for the seventh time. “It definitely has given Lanesville an identity over the years. There’s something for everyone in the family to enjoy.”

A HERITAGE CELEBRATED“First and foremost this is about the way people survived

back then,” Acton said. “When it came time to cut the wheat, the farmers all got together and helped each other. It was a community event. Corn cutting, hauling hay, butchering, ev-erything was done as a community effort. That has definitely stuck with our heritage.”

Each year the machinery field is filled with tractors. This year, in honor of the 40th anniversary, 95-year-old Paul Schneider is bringing 95 tractors from his personal collection.

“He was one of the original exhibitors when this all start-ed,” Acton said.

Small, gas powered hit-and-miss engines are displayed each year as well. The featured gas engine this year is the ARCO

Engine manufactured by Hercules Gas Engine Company of Evansville. Some of these, along with scores of others, will be on exhibit, puffing and chugging away. Many will demonstrate a chore such as shelling beans, grinding corn, or pumping water.

Visitors wandering through the demonstration area may see any number of things. Chair caning, broom making, bee keeping and painting on turkey feathers will all be shown, as well as quilting and weaving, woodturning and woodcarving. Guests may even get a chance to play a game of checkers with Abraham Lincoln.

The food is another big draw, with traditional fair food and meals in the Heritage Food Building and Lanesville Heritage Community Center.

Breakfast is served in the Heritage Food Building until 11 a.m. when the menu switches to fish, pork chops, chicken fin-gers, BBQ, brats and side dishes are featured, including fresh bean soup prepared daily in 40-gallon cast iron pots hung over an open fire just outside the door.

The community center serves up handmade chicken and dumplings on Saturday and fried chicken on Sunday. Local churches take turns each year providing the chicken and dumplings, creating a bit of a competition to provide the best. This year St. Mary’s Catholic Church does the honors.

A COMMUNITY EFFORTVolunteers are the heart of the festival — hundreds of them.

No one is paid, from the chairman of Lanesville Heritage on down.

Doug Meredith has volunteered with Heritage Weekend for 12 years.

ENTERTAINMENT This week's entertainment releases

JEFFERSONVILLE — The city of Jeffersonville, Denzinger Family Dentistry and Diamond Dave Jew-eler present the third annual Rock on Water concert on Sunday, Sept. 13, at RiverStage in Jeffersonville.

The family-friendly, free event features Jason Gray, Carrollton, The Lasting Hope and Hush Harbor.

Event hosts Scott Shireman and Greg Smith invite the community, church groups and families to experi-ence live entertainment and The Family Fun Zone, which will start at 4:30 p.m. with free crafts and activi-ties for kids.

Food vendors will be located on Riverside Drive, according to an event news release.

The concert will start at 5:30 p.m. and early arrival is strongly recom-mended so you can get a seat on the lawn.

Rock on Water was a dream of promoters Shireman and Smith, ac-cording to the event’s website. The two friends had often discussed the possibility of a Christian music festi-val to be held yearly in the Southern Indiana area.

The two decided to form “Rock on Water” in January 2013 and through

the blessings of God and help from volunteers and sponsors the very first Rock on Water was held on Sept. 8, 2013, in Jeffersonville with over

5,000 people for the first year. Now in its third year it is growing better and bigger than ever, according to the website.

Holy rock ‘n’ roll on the water

HERITAGE: Festival originally started in 1976“I’m the photographer, and a gopher like everyone

else,” he said with a laugh. “We always say that your $5 dues will get you more work than you can ever think about. The special thing is the people involved.”

Two weeks before the event scores of volunteers groomed the grounds and prepared for the crowds. “We had lunch and supper for us every day from the ladies of St. Mary’s Catholic Church,” Meredith said.

The local Jaycees and Lions Clubs are heavily in-volved, providing a beer garden (offsite) and breakfasts. The farm toy exhibit is held in the Jaycees hall, and the Boy Scouts help with parking and empty trash cans.

“It’s really, really clean,” said Meredith.The festival gives back to the community, providing

money over the years to the local fire and police depart-ments and the schools. Community members in need have benefited from the festival as well. “We’re the first ones to help,” Acton said.

It’s about giving back.“We have been one of the largest non-corporate donors

in Harrison County to Relay for Life for probably the last 10 years,” Meredith said.

A special 40th anniversary quilt, crafted by Bobbi Robeson out of vintage Lanesville Heritage Weekend T-shirts, will be raffled off this year for the Relay for Life effort.

“It’s a feeling,” Meredith said. “It’s not just a fun time. It’s also the camaraderie, the pride that people have in the community and the organizations and in the park.”

HERITAGE HISTORYLanesville Heritage Weekend started in 1976 as the

Lanesville Bicentennial Celebration. The Lanesville

Heritage Committee purchased the 40-acre festival site, including the iconic Mail Pouch Tobacco barn, in 1989.

In 1993 the committee tracked down the last living Mail Pouch barn painter, Harley Warrick, who led a repainting project. In 2009 the barn was renovated and completely repainted, using videotapes made of the 1993 project.

“Of course, our barn is famous,” Acton said. “It’s part of a (Hoosier artist) Ray Day print series. It’s on the Ohio River Scenic Byway.”

Music has always been a popular feature of the festi-val. In its first year Louisville’s Thoroughbred Chorus performed, along with legendary bluegrass artist Bill Monroe.

This year, the Thoroughbred Chorus returns.“They’re the only ones left from the first festival,”

Meredith said.Special 40th anniversary items will be sold this year,

including glass mugs with the festival logo. Available at various locations, organizers expect perhaps the most popular to be the apple butter booth where guests can watch the butter boiled over an open fire and purchase their mug full of the creamy treat.

No attendance is taken at the free event, but organiz-ers estimate that good weather will lure over 80,000 in a single day.

The festival is easy to find. Just take Ind. 62 into town and look for the red barn with the Mail Pouch Tobacco advertisement painted on it. Or simply follow the line of cars snaking into the parking area under the guidance of horse-mounted sheriffs.

“This event has been passed down from generation to generation,” Acton said. “I’ve been asked many times why it has been so successful for so many years. We’ve had people passionate for it. There’s consistency.”

BILLY IDOLPunk-pop icon Billy Idol will play

Iroquois Amphitheater in Louisville on Tuesday, Sept. 15.

Idol was an early architect of the sound, style and fury of punk rock. His lip-curling sneer and fist-pumping persona vaulted him into the mainstream as one of MTV’s first megastars, making him one of the most recognizable faces in pop mu-sic, while selling out arenas every-where he played. He has sold 40 mil-lion albums while scoring numerous platinum albums worldwide, nine top 40 singles in the U.S. and 10 in the U.K. including “Dancing With Myself, “White Wedding,” “Rebel Yell,” “Mony Mony,” “Eyes Without

A Face,” “Flesh For Fantasy,” and “Cradle Of Love.”

Last year, Simon and Schuster published Idol’s autobiography, “Dancing With Myself.” He also released “Kings & Queens of the Underground,” his first album of new material in nearly a decade in late 2014.

Tickets range from $25.50 to $75.50 for the show, with doors at 7 p.m. and music at 8. Opening with be New York City rock band The London Souls.

Visit iroquoisamphitheater.com for ticket information.

BEST COASTIt’s been a big year for Best Coast,

with the Los Angeles duo releasing its first major label album “Califor-nia Nights” earlier this year. The band will stop Wednesday, Sept. 16, at Headliners in Louisville.

The band is led by singer/song-writer/guitarist Bethany Cosentino and guitarist and multi-instrumen-talist Bobb Bruno, supported by a touring band. “California Nights” is Best Coast’s third full-length, and the pop-rock band continues to move toward a more polished, arena-rock sound with the latest release.

Opening will be Lovely Bad Things, which also hails from California. Tickets are $20 for the general admission show, with doors at 7 p.m. and music at 8. Visit headlinerslouisville.com for more information.
