Bryan Herta Autosport Relocates Operations to Brownsburg

Slick City Action Park Opens First Indiana Location

Bryan Herta Autosport, a two-time Indy 500, seven consecutive Sports Car Championship Winning seasons, and Pikes Peak Record setting auto racing franchise, announced plans today to relocate its Indiana operations. Establishing its global headquarters in Brownsburg and bringing new jobs, including specialized motorsports engineers and trained mechanics, to the community.

Bryan Herta commented, “We are thrilled to make the Town of Brownsburg our new permanent address. Many of the top race teams in the US across multiple disciplines call Brownsburg home, and we have already found the town to be an ideal location for the next chapter in our team’s story. As we continue to expand and take on new challenges, this location will allow us to continue to compete at the top levels of the sport and provide a turnkey solution for future growth and expansion.”

The company plans to invest more than $2.1 million to update the 38,000 square-foot facility at 474 Southpoint Circle in Brownsburg, transforming the building into their state-ofthe-art racing headquarters. The facility will serve as the base of operations for Bryan Herta Autosport’s current NTT INDYCAR SERIES, IMSA programs, and other future racing initiatives.

The company expects to be fully operational in Brownsburg by fall 2025.

“Brownsburg has long been a cornerstone of the motorsports community, and our enduring partnership with Bryan Herta Autosport has played a pivotal role in bringing this project to fruition,” said Brownsburg Town Council President Travis Tschaenn. “Their investment further underscores our Town’s growing reputation as a hub for racing excellence.”

Founded in 2009, Bryan Herta Autosport has established itself as a leader in professional racing, earning multiple championships and victories in open-wheel and sports car competitions. As the official North American partner of Hyundai Motorsport, BHA has played a pivotal role in the success of the Hyundai N TCR program in IMSA’s Michelin Pilot Challenge series.

“We are thrilled that Bryan Herta Autosport has selected Brownsburg as their new headquarters,” said Brownsburg Town Manager Deb Cook.

“Motorsports is the heart of Brownsburg and we are confident that our vibrant, welcoming community will provide the ideal environment for their continued success and future growth.”

Slick City Action Park opened its newest location in Brownsburg, Indiana, in April 2025. This marks the company’s inaugural venture into Indiana and the state’s first indoor waterless slide park.

Wednesday, April 16, partnering with Big Brothers Big Sisters of Central Indiana for the event, which provided mentors and mentees a fun place to spend time together.

Located at 4430 N. County Road 1000 E., Slick City Action Park spans a 42,000-squarefoot facility designed to provide exhilarating experiences for guests of all ages. The park features a variety of attractions, including 13 massive indoor dry slides with varying heights, speeds and twists, as well as air courts, and junior play areas.

“We are excited to introduce Slick City to Indiana and become a part of the Brownsburg community,” said Alex Benepe, Vice President of Franchising and Business Development for Slick City Action Park. “Our goal is to offer a unique and thrilling entertainment option that families and individuals can enjoy year-round.”

A ribbon-cutting ceremony hosted by the Greater Brownsburg Chamber of Commerce was held on

splash pad at williams park open for the summer The splash pad at Williams Park reopened at the end of May, following extensive renovations Originally built in 2015, the 10-year-old facility underwent significant improvements, including expanded play areas, additional water features, and upgraded drainage. The underground water lines have also been enhanced to improve functionality. To provide more comfort for visitors, new picnic tables with umbrellas have been added, offering extra shade for supervising adults, while shade sails remain throughout the play space.

The splash pad, located at the back of Williams Park at 940 S. Locust Ln., is open daily from

10 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. through August 31. It will be closed on Tuesdays for maintenance until 3:30 p.m. and may close at any time due to maintenance or severe weather. The temperature must be at least 72 degrees for the splash pad to operate.

The aquatic play facility provides fun for the whole family with

interactive spray and play features. This zero-depth splash pad offers a variety of water sensations, including flowing, misting, and jetting. With over 30 features spread across

three distinct play areas, there’s something for everyone to enjoy.

The toddler bay includes smaller, gentle spray features designed for little ones, while another bay offers exciting spray cannons and splashing effects. Families can come together in the shared bay, which now features a thrilling 21-foot-tall tipping bucket that pours 40 gallons of water every 5-6 minutes.

Each sequence lasts 4 minutes before the activator needs to be pushed again. The splash pad uses a 3,000-gallon recirculation tank for water treatment. UV and chemical treatments keep the water as clean and safe as possible.

Looking ahead, the adjacent playground will be resurfaced with a rubber pour-in-place surface, creating a safer and more comfortable transition for kids as they move between the playground and splash pad.

The facility is free to use.

park basketball courts open after renovations The outdoor basketball courts at Arbuckle Acres Park and Williams Park were renovated this spring.

Work included milling and resurfacing the existing asphalt courts, replacing basketball goals and backboards, installing new

“Our crews will work around the clock, inspecting hydrants and valves for operational issues. This is important work to ensure this life-saving equipment is ready to be used when needed,” said Frank

Monts, Water Utilities Director of Drinking Water.

Crews will began flushing hydrants in April and will move through neighborhoods through September.

CSI Todd Knowles Recognized by Hendricks County Prosecutor’s Office In March, the Hendricks County Prosecutor’s Office awarded the title of “Investigative Support Personnel of the Year” to Brownsburg Crime Scene Investigator Todd Knowles.

This recognition underscores the invaluable contributions that CSI Knowles makes to the Brownsburg Police Department, particularly in the meticulous collection and preservation of evidence that is critical to the successful resolution of criminal cases.

Since joining the Brownsburg Police Department in 2022, CSI Knowles consistently demonstrated an exceptional commitment to his duties and a profound understanding of forensic science. His extensive experience is rooted in his distinguished career with the Plainfield Police Department, where he dedicated over twentysix years of service to the community.

Knowles has developed a reputation throughout his tenure for his keen analytical skills, attention to detail, and ability to approach complex situations with integrity and professionalism.

His work has not only enhanced

investigative capabilities but has also provided significant assistance to Brownsburg’s law enforcement team in seeking justice for victims and their families.

We extend our heartfelt congratulations to Todd Knowles for this well-deserved accolade.

His hard work, unwavering dedication, and commitment to excellence serve as an inspiration to the Brownsburg Police Department.

Main street reopens to traffic Main Street in Brownsburg has reopened to twoway traffic between Green Street and Grant Street, marking the completion of an important underground infrastructure improvement project in downtown Brownsburg.

Brownsburg’s downtown was home to some of the oldest utility lines in town, including aging brick sewers.

As part of this project, the Town worked to enhance and replace critical sections of the 10

drinking water system along Main Street and College Avenue. In addition to upgrading water lines, the improvements included the installation of a new stormwater system and enhancements to the sanitary sewer system. These critical upgrades were essential to ensure long-term reliability of the town’s infrastructure.

Brownsburg Awarded $2 million in Grant Funding For New Roundabout The Town of Brownsburg has been awarded $2,044,196 from the Indianapolis Metropolitan Planning Organization (IMPO) Transportation Policy Committee for a roundabout at the E. CR 300 N. and N. CR 900 E intersection. The project will convert the existing

All-Way Stop intersection into a single-lane roundabout and multi-use paths for pedestrians and cyclists.

The project will begin design later this year, with construction funding awarded in 2028.

New traffic signal at s. Green st. and Northfield dr.

Work will begin this summer to install a traffic signal at the intersection of S. Green St. and Northfield Dr. Once installed, the light will be flashing to inform drivers for

the first few days. By the end of the summer, it will be fully operational.

The Town of Brownsburg will continue to monitor intersections for potential improvements.
