Description: In southern Indiana, just south of Bloomington and nestled between the rolling, forested hills lies the state's largest inland lake. Lake Monroe contains more than ten thousand acres of water and provides recreation for boaters, hikers, swimmers and campers. The city of Bloomington and surrounding communities rely on it for a water supply. But underneath the jet skis and fishing boats lie the remains of a town that was washed away by progress. Elkinsville- Washed Away by Progress is about that lost town. This once peaceful farming community in Brown County was displaced by the construction of Lake Monroe in the 1960s.
Through an extensive collection of photos and interviews with former residents, the town of Elkinsville has been brought back to life. The program shows where these residents lived and worked, and provides a glimpse of Indiana history seen through the eyes of people who can never go home again.
