BEECH GROVE, Indiana –
In Central Indiana, May is the month of strawberries and fast cars roaring
around a storied oval track.
Visitors to the annual
Senior Promise Spring Fling Strawberry Festival will get a slice of those
traditions Wednesday, May 18 at Sarah T. Bolton Park (1300 Churchman Ave.) A
model of this year’s Indianapolis 500 Pace Car – a Chevrolet Camaro SS – and 2016
500 Festival Princesses will be on hand at this year’s event, scheduled from
12:30 p.m. to 2:30 p.m.
Franciscan St. Francis
Health Senior Promise will incorporate into this year’s event a bit of the
history and tradition of the Indianapolis 500, which is observing its
centennial year.
The festival, which is
free and open to the public, offers live music by The Tides, door prizes and
strawberry shortcake treats. And it provides an opportunity for those 50 and
older to take advantage of the myriad benefits of Senior Promise membership.
