Christmas in Lapel, the town’s beloved annual celebration, has deep roots in the community. Once known as the Lapel Community Association Christmas, the event took a multi-year break before being revived last year by Shellie Sears, the association’s president, and her dedicated team.
“This event had been a cherished tradition for years,” said Sears. “Residents looked forward to it and didn’t want to see it fade away.”
The revival came after overwhelming community support and nostalgic memories of past celebrations, including a live nativity scene. An organizational meeting in August 2023 drew significant interest, solidifying the decision to bring the event back to life.
“We managed to put the new version together in just a few months,” Sears noted.
This year’s Christmas in Lapel offers a mix of timeless traditions and new additions. Attendees can enjoy classic activities like a tree lighting ceremony, storytime, and the cherished live nativity scene. Meanwhile, modern updates include at least four food vendors, including a taco truck, and over 20 craft vendors.
“These vendors were introduced when we brought the event back,” Sears explained. “The original festival was smaller in scale, but the new additions have really enhanced the experience.”
Sears fondly recalled attending the festival as a child, describing it as a magical experience. “They used to light the streets with luminaries,” she said. “We’ve tried to recreate that nostalgic charm while adding fresh elements to keep it exciting.”
The Lapel Community Association remains dedicated to preserving the festival’s enchanting atmosphere while modernizing it for today’s residents and visitors. With its mix of tradition and innovation, Christmas in Lapel continues to be a heartwarming highlight of the holiday season.
LAPEL — Early Sunday morning, firefighters from multiple departments joined forces to extinguish a fire at the Brockway-Owens glass manufacturing plant in Lapel.
Visible scorch marks were left along the north side of the building’s roof, with photographs capturing the intense effort as firefighters used aerial equipment to battle the flames.
Jason Renner, assistant chief of the Lapel/Stony Creek Township Fire Department, reported that the first emergency call came in at 6:45 a.m., alerting responders to the commercial fire.
“When crews arrived and saw flames in the roof, a second alarm was issued,” Renner said. “The fire was contained to the north side of the roof. Thankfully, there were no injuries, and we were able to limit damage to that section.”
Firefighters stayed on-site for about five hours, using an aggressive strategy to put out the fire and ensure no further damage occurred.
Several neighboring departments provided critical support, including South Madison Fire Territory, Anderson, Edgewood, Noblesville, Wayne Township (Hamilton County), Vernon Township (Hancock County), and the Madison County Emergency Management Agency.

The Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) is planning significant improvements at the intersection of State Road (SR) 32 and County Road (CR) 925 W (Main Street) in Lapel, Indiana. A public hearing is scheduled for Tuesday, November 19, 2024, at Lapel High School, located at 1850 S 900 W, Lapel, IN 46051. The event will begin with an open house at 5:30 pm, followed by a formal presentation at 6:00 pm.
Project Overview
The primary goal of this project is to enhance safety at the SR 32 and CR 925 W intersection, which has experienced a higher-than-average rate of right-angle and rear-end collisions. To address these concerns, INDOT proposes replacing the current two-way stop-controlled intersection with a single-lane roundabout. This design aims to reduce conflict points and improve traffic flow.
Key Features of the Proposed Roundabout
Right-of-Way and Environmental Considerations
Approximately 2.05 acres of permanent right-of-way and 0.18 acres of temporary right-of-way will be required. The project will involve the removal of about 0.9 acres of trees, affecting terrestrial habitats. Due to the disturbance of more than one acre of soil, a Construction Stormwater General Permit (CSGP) will be obtained.
Construction and Traffic Management
Construction is expected to span one season, with phased work and temporary signals on SR 32 to manage traffic. Detours will be established during different phases:
These detours may add up to 3.68 miles to commuter travel. INDOT will coordinate with emergency services, local schools, and stakeholders to minimize disruptions.
Public Participation
Residents are encouraged to attend the public hearing to review preliminary design plans and provide feedback. Project materials are available for review at the Lapel Branch Library (610 Main Street, Lapel, IN 46051) and the INDOT Greenfield District Office (32 South Broadway, Greenfield, IN 46140). Comments can be submitted at the hearing or sent by December 5, 2024, to Nicole Minton at Lochmueller Group, Inc., 6200 Vogel Road, Evansville, IN 47715, or via email at Nicole.Minton@lochgroup.com.
This project represents a significant investment in the safety and efficiency of Lapel’s transportation infrastructure. Community involvement is vital to ensure the project’s success and to address any concerns residents may have.
