On June 27th, Governor Eric Holcomb will speak to the 2019 summer interns from 11:30 a.m. until noon. in the South Building auditorium. All interns are expected to attend.
Elected in November 2016, Governor Holcomb is a veteran of the United States Navy, graduate of Pike High School and Hanover College, and former chairman of the Indiana Republican Party. Holcomb's Next Level Agenda is his current plan to improve Hoosiers' well-being and quality of life. The plan focuses on jobs, economic growth, attacking the drug epidemic, infrastructure and government service to improve our state and the lives of its citizens.
The Run The State series is presented by Invest in Your Health Indiana, the state employee wellness program. State employees, including interns, and their families are invited to participate. On June 22, a 5K event will take place at Angel Mounds State Historic Site in Evansville, IN.
Angel Mounds is one of Indiana's oldest Native American sites and was built between A.D.1000 and 1450. The site holds eleven mounds built to elevate and display important buildings of the Mississippian people, and was abandoned before European explorers came to North America.
