The City of Carmel has chosen to honor three Olympians, Alex & Aaron Shackell and Drew Kibler, and Coach Chris Plumb by temporarily renaming three of the city’s streets.
Last Friday morning, Carmel residents and Olympic swimmers (and siblings) Aaron and Alex Shackell, along with Carmel High School and newly-appointed Olympic Coach Chris Plumb, joined Mayor Sue Finkam in Midtown Plaza. The Olympians were presented with street signs displaying their names, which will temporarily replace Midtown Boulevard, Elm Street, First Street, and Second Street until the Olympics have concluded. Swimmer Drew Kibler was not able to attend the media day but will have a street named for him.
The city has also partnered with Sun King to create commemorative pint glasses for SwimCity, USA. They are currently available at the Sun King located in Midtown Plaza.
