INDIANAPOLIS – Indiana’s current and former living governors will unite on Wednesday, August 14, for the 8th Annual Harvest Dinner, “The Art of Leadership with Four Gubernatorial Hoosiers.”
Gov. Eric Holcomb and former governors Mike Pence, Mitch Daniels, and Evan Bayh will keynote the 2024 Harvest Dinner at this year’s Indiana State Fair in the Indiana Farmers Coliseum. The Indiana State Fair Foundation is hosting the evening, which includes a reception and dinner.
Proceeds from the Harvest Dinner support the Youth Development Fund, which benefits the Celebration of Champions and 4-H youth participating at the State Fair.
“This special event won’t be about politics or the issues of the day, but rather a friendly conversation about their approach to leadership, reflecting on their time as Governor, and their impact on Indiana over the past 35 years,” the event website says.
Holcomb’s second term ends this year. Pence served from 2013-2017, Daniels was governor from 2005-2013, and Evan Bayh was in office from 1989 to 1997. Former Governors Frank O’Bannon and Joe Kernan, are deceased.
