Mooresville, Indiana

Mooresville is a town in Brown Township, Morgan County, in the U.S. state of Indiana.

[7] The town was home to Paul Hadley, a watercolorist, who in 1916, had designed the current Indiana state flag for a flag contest sponsored by the Daughters of the American Revolution during the state's 1916 centennial anniversary.

The cross in the center represents the state's motto, "the crossroads of America."

The star on the cross represents Mooresville's position relative to Indianapolis.

[8] On April 8, 2020, an EF1 tornado hit downtown, with significant winds around 100 miles per hour (160 km/h).

From this tornado, a building on the southeast corner of Indiana and Main streets had partially collapsed in on itself.

[9] On July 3, 2020, a group of 100 Black Lives Matter protesters marched through the streets of the town.

The two groups of protesters stood at a face off across the road on 31 S Indiana Street, with the situation escalating to the point where a small group of men camped out on a nearby roof of a business wielding multiple guns.

The scene played out for several hours, only being held back by the police on both sides of the road.

[10] In November 2023, the retail supermarket store Walmart in collaboration with Hasbro had released a Monopoly board game themed after the town of Mooresville titled "Mooresville-Opoly."

This board game sold for a limited time at the Camby Walmart store only.

22.8% of all households were made up of individuals, and 8.9% had someone living alone who was 65 years of age or older.

Every year, in early August, the town holds an "Old Settlers Fair" that involves a parade through downtown Mooresville and carnival attractions at Pioneer Park.

The first of these events, originally called Old Settlers Reunion and Picnic, was held on August 9, 1870, and was original held at Old Town Park in Mooresville after the land was donated by Samuel Moore.

The gym was built in the early 1900s with help from Mooresville residents who each contributed $100 to help build the facility.

The full-service hospital includes an emergency department, labor and delivery, cancer care, and it is home to the Joint Replacement Surgeons of Indiana Research Foundation.
