Pothole repairs at Hague Road, and a streetlight finally fixed on Teel Way

Image
City crews this week patched more than 60 Eagle Nest potholes on our main east-west street, including the minefields at the Hague Road entrance and at the three-way stop at Tanager Lane and Warbler Way. This follows the Board’s efforts to alert our two City-County Council members and the Mayor’s Action Center. Councilor Nick Roberts answered our call and said he’s placed Tanager on his priority list for a complete repaving. This week’s patching didn’t go that far, but it is a big step to addressing two of our biggest street-crater trouble spots. We’ll keep working with Roberts and others on the longer-term solution and let you know what we learn. In the meantime, we’re glad to see one other bit of progress, the replacement of a streetlight on Teel Way just north of 75 th Street. The top of the streetlight was knocked completely off somehow — we were told a tree-trimming crew may have done it — and we pursued AES for weeks trying to get a replacement. AES put in the new light this week...

Eagle Nest Board update for April 2026: dues, streetlights, potholes, suspicious vehicles, upcoming events and more

Image
Now that spring has sprung in Eagle Nest, summer isn’t far behind – barely two months away! With that, the Board has a few updates and event announcements to pass along: Package delivery alert: Suspicious vehicles trolling streets If you order from Amazon or other delivery sites, take note: Residents along Warbler Way recently reported suspicious vehicles (shown) driving slowly along the street, possibly looking for packages. One vehicle even tailed a U.S. Postal Service truck for blocks as it made its deliveries one day. If you expect a package to be delivered while you are away or at work, the Board suggests you ask a neighbor to grab the package for you or time your deliveries for when you are home. As always, if you see something suspicious, call 911. 200 books dumped at Clubhouse The Board appreciates donations to our Free Little Library, but at the risk of sounding ungrateful we don’t need 200 books (shown at right). On April 6, that’s what an anonymous donor dumped on our Clubho...

Neighbors, trust and transparency: A conversation with IMPD Chief Tanya Terry

Image
Police have new tools and technology to promote public safety, but the best crime-fighting force is closer than many people realize — maybe even next door, the new chief of the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department said. Tanya Terry (shown at right), a 27-year law enforcement veteran and graduate of Warren Central High School and the former IUPUI, was sworn in as chief of the department last month. She previously was deputy chief of operations after stints as a patrol officer, a North District detective and founding member of the Street Level Enforcement Detail and the Violent Crimes Unit. On March 27, she joined a dozen officers and newly named North District Commander Corey Mims at Fire & Ice Cafe for a “Coffee with a Cop” session with the public. The coffee shop at 62 nd Street and Allisonville Road is near Terry’s neighborhood, and the importance of strong local connections was on her mind. Eagle Nest Board member and blog contributor John Strauss was there to tal...

Easter Egg Hunt a hit, one of several Clubhouse activities open to residents!

Image
Thanks to all the kids and parents who turned out for our longtime annual Easter Egg Hunt on Friday. It was a little chilly, but that didn’t stop our little Eagle Nesters from having fun. We typically host the event on a weekend day, but our Clubhouse was booked with rentals, so we had to shift the event day this year. As always, it's good to know our Clubhouse is popular and a great resource for residents. If you are interested in renting, contact Clubhouse Manager Kelly Dentler at clubhousemgr@att.net. Thanks to Social Co-chair Sarah Craney, Clubhouse Manager Kelly Dentler and neighborhood volunteer Evan Gabrys for preparing the eggs and hiding the loot around the Clubhouse. Want more social activities at the Clubhouse? Our Euchre Club meets the first Tuesday of every month. Play starts at 6:30 p.m. Free yoga classes 6:30 p.m. every Wednesday at the Clubhouse. (adult residents only; bring your own mat and water bottle) Self-serve Free Little Library on the east side of the Clubho...

Volunteers sought for entrance landscaping meeting March 23

Image
Are you interested in making our neighborhood entrances more inviting? Got a green thumb to help maintain the plantings around our Eagle Nest monuments? Your chance to volunteer is here! Join us for the organizational meeting   of our Eagle Nest Beautification Team, 6 p.m. Monday, March 23, at the Clubhouse. Light refreshments will be served. Longtime resident and Hague Road median caretaker Janet Long and our groundskeeper Manuel Andrade of Allure Landscaping will lead the discussion and field questions and suggestions for improving the landscaping at our three Eagle Nest entrances. Over the years, occasional anonymous volunteers and the now defunct Garden Club had a heavy hand in maintaining things. But times have changed and some residents have moved on, so the Board is looking for the next generation of volunteers. No experience needed – just a desire to help make our community the best it can be and our entrances the envy of surrounding neighborhoods. Join us!

Annual Easter Egg Hunt at 5:30 p.m. Friday, March 27, at the Clubhouse

Image
Spring is just around the corner, and that means it’s time for our popular annual Easter Egg Hunt. Join us at 5:30 p.m. Friday, March 27, at the Clubhouse. (Yes, we know it usually is on a weekend, but our Clubhouse is packed with rentals this month, so we had to change things up this year.) Our FREE family-friendly event (weather permitting) is open to all residents’ children and grandchildren (ages 10 and younger). Candy-filled plastic eggs will be spread around the Playground area and Clubhouse front lawn. Participants should bring their own baskets. The scramble for eggs will begin at 5:30 p.m. sharp for our littlest Eagle Nesters (3 to 4 years old), then open up to older kids two to three minutes after that. The hunt is usually over in 10 minutes, so don’t show up late. As always, please use caution when entering and leaving the Clubhouse parking lot as little ones will be running around. If there’re rain overnight, be prepared to get a little muddy. If the day is a washout,...
