Nestled between the rolling hills of Hoosier National Forest and the luscious banks of the mighty Ohio River, here, knowing your neighbor is the norm, not the exception. Welcome to a place where the people are genuinely kind, welcoming, and excited about growth. We are a fun, creative community made up of people who believe in the power of collaboration and the value of innovation and inclusion. Welcome home.
Earlier this week, our team spent some time with area freshman as part of the We the Youth of Perry County program. We discussed the county`s economic evolution in the 1990s, the growing importance of workforce development and talent retention & attraction, the creation of the #pickperry campaign, the distinct attractions and the vast 60K+ acres of Hoosier National Forest that make our county unique, the critical role of philanthropy and community investment, and the benefit of working together to better the place we all chose to call home...just to name a few! We ended the evening with a game of Perry County jeopardy complete with #pickperry prizes! We hope the students enjoyed the evening as much as we did! #perrycounty #indiana #visitindiana #LoveWhereYouLive #LiveUnited #community #WeTheYouth

Today was the perfect day for the annual Tour of Opportunity! Local 8th graders visited Waupaca Foundry, ATTC Manufacturing, Perry County Memorial Hospital, and the Tell City Ivy Tech Career & Technology Center, where even more local employers were stationed with a variety of hands on activities. This day is all about exposing our local students to the wide variety of career opportunities available within our community. #pickperry #tourofopportunity #careerdevelopment
Our team spent the morning at Tell City Jr-Sr High School discussing the power of meaningful internships. Local employers heard from Fred Yeakey, Founder & CEO of the The Barbershop Male Mentoring Initiative LLC about the critical importance of connecting with high school students through intentional workplace experiences. Thanks to Indiana Youth Institute for sponsoring this event! #pickperry #picklocal #internships #futureworkforce #workforce #talentpipeline #growherestayhere

Today members of our team met with Chris Tempel of Scenic View Farms to discuss ag-related opportunities within our region as part of the Rural Economic Development Model (REDM). Understanding a region’s core industry clusters and supply chain is key to attracting and growing investment, and through REDM, our goal is to determine where our county and region have a competitive edge relative to the nation, learn what the existing supply chain looks like, identify economic leakages of supplies or other inputs purchased outside the region, and to define our region’s specific agricultural products that could be promoted for a unique market. Chris provided a wealth of knowledge and we are grateful for his time! Thank you Chris! #pickperry #REDM, #ruraleconomicdevelopment
