On today’s 765 Business Journal with Lathay Pegues, we shine a spotlight on Destination: Muncie — the newly rebranded organization driving tourism, local business engagement, and community connection across Delaware County.

Lathay welcomes Lena Reid, Communications Manager, and Jeff Neff, Director of Marketing & Community Engagement, for a deep dive into the excitement surrounding the Garfield Trail Passport — an interactive, geo-fenced tour of 17 uniquely designed four-foot Garfield statues located throughout the county. Listeners learn how to download the passport at DestinationMuncie.org, check in at each statue, earn points, and enter drawings for Garfield-themed gift baskets.

Destination: Muncie’s growing role as the information hub for events and activities across the region, including:

✔️ A fully updated community calendar
✔️ Partnerships with Ball State’s Digital Corps
✔️ Tools that boost visibility for downtown shops, local organizations, and visitor experiences

Plus, they highlight several upcoming attractions and community events:


• Bob Ross “Nestled Cabins” exhibit now open at Minnetrista
• An Evening of Art at the Murray Building on November 21, 6–9 p.m.
• Miracle on 34th Street opening at Muncie Civic Theatre on November 28
• Yorktown Luminary Festival on Small Business Saturday, November 29 
• Light Up Muncie on December 4
• Christmas in Selma on December 6

It’s a full conversation celebrating the people and organizations lifting up Muncie through tourism, economic development, and community engagement.
