BRYAN PARK POOL
Talk about kid appeal – with three water slides
and a shallow splash area for the tots, Bryan
Park Pool is hard to beat. Luckily there’s a
snack bar on site, because a hungry tummy
might just be the only thing to tear your kids
away from the fun. 1001 S. Henderson St.
MILLS POOL
On a smaller scale than Bryan Park Pool, Mills
Pool is also a great choice for families. There’s
something for every age – a water slide for
big kids, a zero-depth area for little ones, plus
umbrellas and deck chairs for lounging parents.
1100 W. 14th St.
KARST FARM PARK
If you’re looking to cool off but don’t need the
full pool experience, head out to the Splash
Pad, located behind the soccer fields at Karst
Farm Park. The fountains and sprinklers are a
welcome respite from a long day of activities.
There’s also a great playground next to the
water area. Best of all: it’s all free!
2450 S. Endwright Rd.
COUNSILMAN BILLINGSLEY
AQUATIC CENTER
While some of us may wish for 365 days of
summer, four distinct seasons in Bloomington
means the outdoor pools have to close when
the cool weather arrives. So if you’re itching
to jump in the pool and the weather isn’t
cooperating, try the state-of-the-art pool at
IU’s Student Recreational Sports Center. Call
or check for family swim hours on weekends.
1601 Law Ln.
IU OUTDOOR POOL
Looking to get your laps in? The IU Outdoor
Pool has 10 lanes dedicated to staying
between the lines. There’s a shallow pool for
kids, spring diving boards, and a multi-story
diving platform that might just inspire a few
dares. Are you brave enough to jump off the
10-meter platform? 1833 N. Fee Ln.
PAYNETOWN STATE
RECREATION AREA
(MONROE LAKE)
Monroe Lake is the largest in Indiana, snaking
its way through the southeast corner of the
county. Surrounded by thousands of acres
of gorgeous forest, the lake is home to three
beaches. First up is Paynetown Beach, situated
in the middle of a sunny peninsula and full of
rustic charm. There are also lots of rentable
boats to get you out onto the water, from
kayaks to jet skis to double decker pontoon
boats. If you want to participate in some land-
based happenings, the activity center hosts
programming throughout the year.
4850 S. State Road 446
BY AUBREY DUNNUCK
From Memorial Day to Labor Day, we’re getting our feet (and knees, and stomachs, and
shoulders) wet in Bloomington. Splashing around in the water is a summer tradition, and
there are plenty of places to do just that. Stay close to town with a swim in one of several
beautiful pools, or connect with nature at Monroe Lake and Lake Lemon. Whether
you’re the type to cannonball straight into the deep end or wade in gradually, we’ve got a
swimming spot for you.

THE OWLERY This meat-free restaurant on the Square stands out as much for its collection of owl kitsch as for its all-vegetarian comfort food. You must try the Canadian classic, Poutine. Crispy fries smothered in hot gravy and melted cheese curds (vegan or dairy), need we say more? theowleryrestaurant.com
FALAFELS The namesake Falafel is excellent – fresh and plenty crisp. Order it in a sandwich with some of the best fries in Bloomington or as an entrée with roasted asparagus and mashed potatoes. On the healthier side, the Tel Aviv Salad is a rainbow of cucumber, tomatoes, olives, and feta. Use the halo of pita chips to scoop up a little bit of everything.
falafelsonline.com
ANYETSANG’S LITTLE TIBET Follow the colorful Tibetan Prayer flags to find this Fourth Street gem. Share some Tibetan dumplings, or momos, with half Tsel, stuffed with cabbage and carrots and half Shogo, filled with mashed potatoes and onions. Lunch specials are a great deal – they include a small salad with an addictive ginger dressing, followed by the ultra-creamy coconut red curry. anyetsangs.com
KING DOUGH A new – and very welcome – addition to the downtown square, King Dough brings Napoli-style pizza to Bloomington. You can’t go wrong with a classic Margherita pie, topped with tomato sauce, mozzarella, extra virgin olive oil, and basil. The crust stands on its own, beautifully charred and chewy, making it easy to skip the cheese and go with a vegan pie. facebook.com/kingdoughpizza

BY AUBREY DUNNUCK
If you’re a vegetarian visiting Bloomington, consider yourself lucky. From the plethora of earth-conscious restaurants surrounding the downtown square to the abundance of unique international restaurants on Fourth Street, a delicious, meat-free meal is easy to find and devour. And we’re not just vegetarian friendly; if you’re vegan or gluten-free, you’ll find more delectable options than you’d expect even from a progressive place like Bloomington. These locally owned and operated restaurants are just a few of our favorites.

One of the best things about Bloomington is the diversity of people who come here, and the reasons why. It might surprise visitors to know that two of the largest Buddhist centers in the Midwest are right here in Bloomington. Tucked away in heavy woods that act as a buffer from the outside world, the spiritual centers are places where people can marvel or meditate, or both. These centers are part of the fabric that makes this community so colorful, and offer visitors a unique and unexpected experience.
You don’t have to be a practicing Buddhist to explore these quiet and sacred monasteries. Their brightly colored temples, altars with gilded Buddha statues, and peaceful grounds are open to the public. Both centers welcome visitors of all faiths who are looking for a cultural experience or simply a few tranquil moments.
The longstanding Tibetan Mongolian Buddhist Cultural Center is on the southeast side of Bloomington, and the newer Gaden KhachoeShing monastery is on Bloomington’s north side. Both monasteries have four resident monks who chant and pray daily in the temples.
Both centers were established to preserve Buddhism in Western culture and both are rooted in the Yellow Hat sect of Tibetan Buddhism, but their practices veer from there — the two are not affiliated. Here’s what to expect when visiting these Bloomington landmarks.
At the Tibetan Mongolian Buddhist Cultural Center, a winding drive seems to offer something new at every turn: monuments, the temple, a prayer-wheel pavilion, a pond with lotus flowers, and cottages for rent. Set back on a heavily wooded 108 acres — just 10 acres of which are developed — the center hosts individual visitors looking for meditation as well as large events, including a handful
of visits from the Dalai Lama (he even has a private apartment at the Center for those visits).The Center was founded in the 1970s by the
late Thubten Jigme Norbu, the eldest brother of the 14th Dalai Lama and a professor of Tibetan Studies at Indiana University. Today, the Center’s director is Arjia Rinpoche, who fled Tibet and wrote a memoir about it called “Surviving the Dragon.” Rinpoche was recognized as a reincarnate lama when he was two years old and he was tapped by the Dalai Lama to become the director in 2005.
