INDIANA — The Indiana Broadcasters Association, which represents more than 270 TV and Radio stations across the Hoosier state, is donating $15,000 to support the Hoosier Gym in Knightstown. The contribution was presented this week during the IBA’s 2020 “Best In Broadcasting” Spectrum Awards that originated from the iconic venue.
In addition to supporting the Hoosier Gym, the IBA sponsored special showings of the movie Hoosiers across the state this summer in Garrett, Indianapolis, and Terre Haute to raise money for the Gym’s operations.
“2020 has been a rough year for the Hoosier Gym. Losing the Hoosiers Reunion All-Star Classic, coupled with being shut down to visitors for three months put a financial pinch on the Gym. Thanks to the IBA, that burden has been alleviated,” said Hoosier Gym Events Coordinator Bob Garner in a letter to the IBA’s Board of Directors “You can be assured that we will put the money to good use to preserve the work of this historic site.”
