Sheridan

Sheridan – October 16, 2026 -- The YiHouse Doublethick washable rug measures about 0.46 inches thick, compared with roughly 0.22 inches for standard washable rugs, and the entire one-piece rug fits in a household washing machine. YiHouse has launched YiHouse.com to sell the collection to U.S. consumers. The rugs are already available on Amazon.

Thin washable rugs prompted the redesign

YiHouse says it reviewed publicly available consumer feedback and repeatedly found complaints about thin construction, limited cushioning and a lack of softness. Some reviewers compared competing washable rugs to a bed sheet laid on the floor.

Sheridan – October 01, 2026 -- Special Olympics Indiana is moving its signature Polar Plunge season showcase from Eagle Creek Park in Indianapolis to SKYLAKE Adventures, a new adventure park in Sheridan, starting in 2027.

SKYLAKE Adventures opened in June 2026 just north of Westfield's Grand Park Sports Campus. Its first phase included a six-acre manmade lagoon, white-sand beaches, floating obstacle courses and water slides. For winter, the venue will add a snow tubing hill, ice skating, a three-story ropes course and holiday activities to host the plunge.

Ramp access will let wheelchair users take the plunge

The new venue keeps Polar Plunge traditions intact, including costumes, teams and fundraising challenges. Ramp access to the water will create opportunities for individuals who use wheelchairs to participate.
