Terre Haute, in. – Tim Drake, the President of Lukebo Inc, which owns The Mill of Terre Haute… an outdoor music venue on Prairietown Road…. says he wants to create a private-public partnership through the Vigo County Capital Improvement Board to help further develop the venue. Drake said Wednesday, that he would like to make The Mill an arts and entertainment district, which could open it to public funding. He said the idea would be to create a space for both family entertainment and “high energy nightlife” with things like a distillery, a park on the green, a splash pad, and a roadhouse. Business now is brisk… this year, Drake says they are projecting 65,000 visitors. So far, his company alone has invested more than $1 million in the venue.
