Many people living here do not know it, but Fishers was a very, very tiny farm town for many years.  Then there’s the story of the fist fight in the middle of a high school basketball game in the 1940s.  Lantern Road was named after a misspelling of another man’s name.

Those are just a few of the gems I learned while recording a podcast with Larry Reynolds, one of the owners of Reynolds Farm Equipment, with a large John Deere store located in Fishers.

Mr. Reynolds also talked about the future of the annual Christmas lights display with construction of the new Harley-Davidson building underway in Reynolds Drive.  Many of the displays will be closer to the Reynolds John Deere store, and along the east side of Reynolds Drive.  He also discussed the possibility of moving the Christmas light display to Conner Prairie in the future.  But the Reynolds family wants to assure local residents the Christmas lights display will definitely remain in Fishers.
