Pack the Cruiser set for June 2

By Renee Larr • news@currentinwestfield.com Hamilton County residents soon will have the opportunity to assist 13 local summer lunch programs. On June giving back 2 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., officers from Carmel, Fishers, Noblesville, Sheridan, Westfield and the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office will be at all nine Kroger stores across the county accepting food donations in an initiative called Pack the Cruiser.

“It’s a one-day food drive inviting the public to come out to Kroger,” said Anita Hagen, executive director of the Hamilton County Harvest Food Bank. “The policemen will be there with their cars inviting people to come in and shop for specific food items.

There are individualized lists for each store based on which programs they’re working with in that area.”

County-wide summer lunch programs provide 75,000 meals to more than 1,400 children during the 10 weeks of summer vacation.

“We’re requesting all non-perishable items,” Hagen said. “They’ll also accept Kroger gift cards, or if people would like to just make a monetary donation, all that

money will be turned into Kroger gift cards to those programs.”

The program was launched last year in Fishers and was expanded to include all of Hamilton County this year.

“Det. Dean Mucha of the Fishers Police Dept. was the originator of the idea,” Hagen said. “He wanted to try it out in Fishers.

They filled 11 cars, but always in his mind he wanted it to be across all of Hamilton County.”

Representatives from each summer lunch program will be on hand to answer questions.

Fishers H.S. graduate profile: Nina Carr

By Desiree Williams news@currentinfishers.com Nina Carr graduated from Fishers High School in 2014. Carr, 22, education will graduate with a degree in communications studies from Ball State University, where she also is involved in Phi Mu Fraternity.

Q: Who was your most influential high school teacher?

A: There were so many great teachers. I would probably say Ms. Clone. I had her for astronomy. She was always very positive and very willing to help.

Q: What were you involved in during high school?

A: I was on the lacrosse and golf team. I very much enjoyed both of them. I loved the whole team aspect and I made a lot of good friends and memories throughout my time on both teams.

Q: What do you miss about high school?

A: One of the things I miss most is being on both of those teams, lacrosse and golf.

Also, just having all of your friends at the same school as you. It’s hard when you go off to college and people go to different colleges and you lose touch.

Q: Can you tell me about your college experience?

A: Throughout my time at Ball State, I’ve really enjoyed the past four years. I learned a lot in my major and I’ve made a lot of good friends and great memories. I was involved in a Greek organization on campus and that gave me a lot of great leadership opportunities, great memories and great friends. Although I will miss college, it was a great four years.

Q: What interests you about communication studies?

A: I feel like I’ve always been interested in communications and learning all about it. One thing that did really help in why I chose my major was that there really is no math involved and math was never one of my strong suits. All of my professors have been great, and I’ve really enjoyed the whole department.

Mother cautions others on Semester at Sea program, holds fundraiser in memory of daughter

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com Kassie Braun’s philanthropic nature began early in life and grew cover story through high school and college.

The Fishers resident and Cathedral High School graduate participated in a Semester at Sea program in fall 2017. She was joined by hundreds of other students from across the nation. Braun was one of five students to receive the Service Learning Impact Scholarship, allowing her to teach in different nations and return to the ship to educate other students on her experiences.

Semester at Sea encourages students to travel independently to different ports to learn how international travel works. After the ship spent time in India, Kassie traveled to Myanmar with three friends she met on board. Although officials advise against it, climbing the pagodas in Myanmar is a popular tourist activity. When Kassie, 20, climbed them with her friends, the bricks beneath her collapsed and she fell to the bottom of the pagoda.

Kassie initially survived the fall and was transported to a nearby hospital, though available treatment methods consisted of little more than cotton swabs applied with rubber gloves.

“She was alive. She survived the fall, but there was no medical care, so she lay there bleeding out of her eyes and her ears and her nose,” said Chalene Braun, Kassie’s mother.

“I didn’t get a phone call from a student for an hour later. The closest hospital is called a hospital, but it’s a shack with a dirt floor.

“The doctor drove her in a vehicle, on some makeshift gurney put in the back of a dilapidated vehicle, and drove to the closest hospital four hours away to then be airlifted to Bangkok (Thailand).”

Kassie died en route to the second hospital. Two hours before she fell, she told Chalene she was having the best day ever.

Prior to college, Kassie interned at Daniel’s Vineyard in McCordsville. Chalene also worked with her. During her short time at the vineyard, Kassie established a program called Sip. Bark. Repeat., where attendees pay a fee to bring their dog to the vineyard. It was such a success the vineyard began to host it monthly. To honor Kassie, the vineyard’s June event will raise funds for an organization created by Chalene called KassieKares, which provides scholarships for students to attend Cathedral High School and St. Edward’s University, where Kassie attended college. The organization also is funding the construction of a school in Nigeria.

In addition to raising funds for the phil-

anthropic organization, Chalene wants to educate parents about the risks of Semester at Sea and independent travel outside of that related to study. She said she hopes the program begins using Depart Smart, an online program created by Sheryl Hill, who lost her son, Tyler, during a trip abroad. The program educates on destinations and what to expect.

For Myanmar, it cautions against travel for people with minor health conditions like asthma because if something were to happen, adequate hospitals are up to 10 hours away.

The nation also doesn’t have infrastructure in place to efficiently transport patients.

“If I had known what I know now, my daughter would have not gotten off that ship (in Myanmar),” Chalene said.

“Their history saves lives,” Hill said in an email statement about her son and others who have died on overseas trips. “Policy has not kept pace with globalization. Travel and Tourism consumer safety and statistically meaningful reporting is practically nonexistent. You don’t get a warning before you buy or fly. Most people do not know how to Depart Smart. Take the Travel Safety Savvy quiz on Depart Smart.org to test yourself. Fewer than 3 percent can score more than 5. People don’t know what they need to know to avoid risks, get help and home safely.”

For more, visit departsmart.org.

Deconstructing DMs

o b s e r v ation

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

A wider menu Commentary by Terry Anker As avid readers, each day we receive a panoply of updates, blasts, news and posts about all sort and manner of ideas. Even this paper appears in our mailboxes eagerly enticing us to open, review and stay a while. Because of the many topics that might pique our interest, social media bots, editorial pros and would-be lifestyle experts all gauge our thinking with an eye to deliver more of said content to keep us interested – and their product above the constant chatter of this media age. Tailored articles and suggested columns all fill our senses.

It is a bit as if our favorite restaurant took note that we have had the same general menu item three of the last five visits. Promptly, it removed all other flavors and created a menu just for us. Gone would be anything that might allow us to stray from our daily ritual of meat and potatoes.

Countless variations on the singular theme would be advanced.

In a world where we customize to a narrow slice of the menu, aren’t we missing the abundance of our choices? And, can our bodies remain healthy, or even survive, on a diet compressed to our limited notions of what we might enjoy? Discerning, reading, contemplating – each requires a modicum of adventure. How can we come to know our tastes if we only sample things we already know? Certainly, the safe, easy choice is the familiar and the self-reinforcing. At times, a hearty meat and potato stew is warranted, if not required. Still, is it suited for a daily diet? Pineapple is not my favorite. Brussels sprouts are. Isn’t there room for both on my plate?

READER ’ S V I EW Boy Scout community flag retirement Editor, Troop 303 is grateful for the posting of pictures from our Flag Retirement Ceremony with American Legion Post 470. We would like to shed light on the images shared.

We are proud to be associated with Post 470 and have the honor of participating in flag retirement services. The American Legion post on 126th Street is a drop-off point for unserviceable American flags. An Eagle Scout installed a deposit box at the facility that can be accessed 24/7 with a sign that has each next flag retirement date. We collect flags year-round and retire them by burning in accordance with U.S. Flag Code Title 4 Section 8.

A retirement pit that is built solely for honorably retiring American flags is used.

Most flags have been displayed at homes or businesses until they need replaced.

Others are in honor of loved ones who paid

the ultimate price of freedom with their lives while serving in our armed forces.

At first the Scouts stood with Legion officers and learned to inspect and prepare the flags for this service. The Boy Scouts now lead this service. It includes an inspection and a moment of silence and prayer prior to playing “Taps” as the flags are presented. The Boy Scouts enjoy talking with veterans about military service and have had the Fishers police chief and Boy Scout Band participate as well.

We hope this Memorial Day you will remember those who gave their lives for us.

When you see the flag of our nation under which they served, have pride and treat it with respect. If a flag is unserviceable, put a new one in its place. Be assured that the Scouts will retire your flag with honor and respect.

Matt Best, Scoutmaster for Boy Scout Troop 303

In this episode of “Evolution of a Dance Mom: An Exposé,” I explore how a new dance mom experiences the five stages of grief. Enjoy! humor After her daughter’s firstever competition, the DM will see nothing but positives: The supportive and professional atmosphere, the fair and clearly defined judging guidelines and the beauty and grace of all the young performers. This is the classic shock-and-denial phase, when the DM subconsciously is unable and unwilling to look below the glitter lipstick and faux lashes to the crazy that ferments beneath.

By her third competition, however, the DM will move on to anger. She will have had it with obnoxious mothers screeching, “Own it, Maddie!” and the exorbitant tuition/entrance fees. She will mutter things like “Where’d my life go?” in her tormented sleep.

But by this point, the DM is committed. She’ll fail miserably at the bargaining stage (“If you quit, I’ll buy you a pony!”) and muddle through a few weeks of depression (“I’m sorry my tears ruined your bun, honey”). Dark days, for certain.

As the season wraps with nationals, however, the DM will reach the last phase of acceptance. She’ll understand that her daughter has found her passion and that she must do whatever it takes to put her child’s dreams ahead of her own frustrations. The DM will have accepted the cost, the time commitment and even the requisite sequined booty shorts. She’ll know to bring a good book, wear a pair of quality ear plugs and appreciate the endless opportunities to ruthlessly judge other women and their kids. She will have accepted her fate as a Dance Mom. Peace out.

Indy 500’s checkered past Commentary by Dick Wolfsie We all recall Indy 500 winners like Rick Mears, Al Unser, Jr. and A. J. Foyt. Recently, a longtime friend (and race fan humor for 80 years) reminisced about some of his favorite race facts.

If you’ve never heard of them, it’s because he made them up.

THE CLEANEST RACE CAR DRIVER was Daring Dudley Doolittle, a fierce competitor and an immaculate dresser. In 1963, Dudley pulled his gleaming white racecar into the pits on the 100th lap. As his crew provided additional fuel and two new tires, Dudley took a shower and shaved. However, he slipped on a bar of soap and it took several minutes to hobble back to his car, resulting in a last-place finish. Dudley may have been the cleanest driver ever, but after that race his career was pretty much washed up.

THE ODDEST FUEL was used by a 1944 car driven by Percy Vichy of Paris. His Peugeot ran on pure perfume. The car was the brainchild of Andy Grandasmelli, who was allergic to gasoline fumes. The engine raised a stink from officials, but for Vichy the smell of victory kept getting stronger.

His perfume-powered car led every lap until

the last one, when he ran out of fuel, stopping 1-inch from the finish line. What irony: He lost by a nose.

THE MOST ARTISTIC CAR was owned by California artist Victor Van Go. In 1948, Van Go attached a huge canvas to the outside wall along the main stretch. On each lap, Van Go took out his palette and brushes.

As he sped down the straightaway, he extended his arm and applied a swath of colors, resulting in an impressionistic mural. To this day, he is known as the world’s fastest painter.

THE MOST CONTROVERSIAL CAR was owned by Greg Sturley, who had a passenger seat installed for an exotic dancer. She would shed an article of clothing with each lap, and drivers stayed behind Sturley’s car to watch the show. Sturley finished first, but the l933 committee ruled his ploy illegal and stripped him of the honor. This was the origin of the word “racy.”

Donald (Don) L. Hipes, 83, Carmel, died Thursday morning, January 18, 2018 at his home in Carmel, IN. He was born March 24, 1934 in Royal Center, IN to Josephine and Roy Hipes, and married Deborah Ann Krueger February 24, 1978.

Don graduated from Crawfordsville High School, where he earned 8 athletic letters and was the proud recipient of the Hybarger Award for outstanding athletes. Though his undergraduate education was interrupted by his service in the Armed Forces as a Sergeant in the US Army Infantry, Don received his BS from Butler (where he also lettered) and his MS from Purdue. His career in Education spanned 41 years, serving as Principal of various Indiana high schools, chiefly Lebanon and Noblesville, as well as State Supervisor of Correctional Education. After retirement at 62, he had fun with numerous part time positions—from kindergarten assistant to elementary school disciplinary coach to English and literature instructor for Indianapolis and Carmel schools, and IUPUI. Don also volunteered for many years as bookseller, bear hugger, and Santa Claus at the bookstores, Cover to Cover Books, Noblesville, and Treehouse Tales, Indianapolis, that he and Debby built together. Don was a member of Rotary International in Lebanon and Noblesville, where he served as president of the chapter. He also belonged to St. Luke’s United Methodist Church and volunteered in the church office.

Don was proud of growing up on his parents’ Crawfordsville farm, loyally followed the Chicago Cubs, enjoyed movies, books, travel and gazing at “his water” in Naples, Florida. He loved his wife Deb and their chocolate Havanese, Chapters. Don will be remembered for planting trees in their Stonewick neighborhood, enjoying irises and lilacs, telling funny stories, laughing at his own corny jokes, and a twinkling smile.

He is survived by his wife Debby, his sister-in-law, Becky Krueger Malenkos (Michael Ridenour), his nephews, JW Malenkos (Marissa), Justin Malenkos (Eugenia) of Carmel, and his nieces and nephew, Cindy Hipes Bennett (Don), Carrie Hipes Bearden (Jim), John Hipes (Karen), Jill Hipes, and Jeni Hipes Hall (Larry) of Georgia, as well as 11 great nieces and nephews of Carmel, Georgia and Florida.

Don’s parents and brother, Darrell, preceded him in death.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the St. Luke’s United Methodist Church Stephen Ministry or the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society of Indiana. A Memorial service will be held June 2, 2018, 11am at Flanner Buchanan-Oaklawn Memorial Gardens (Conner Suite), 9700 Allisonville Road, with visitation beginning at 9:30am. Online condolences may be made at www.flannerbuchanan.com. The family thanks Transitions Hospice for attentive and gentle life-ending care.

Walls Mattress adds rug and room store

By Sadie Hunter sadie@youarecurrent.com In business in Noblesville for eight years, previously in Westfield, Walls Mattress has expanded to add Walls Rug & new biz Room.

Connected to the mattress store at 2345 Conner St., the rug and home décor store was created to fill a void in the Noblesville market, owner Austin Walls said.

“I was looking to expand in other areas, and I enjoy the design process of selling furniture – the artwork, the rugs, the accessories – but don’t necessarily enjoy selling furniture,” Walls said. “I was looking in the area, and I felt like there was a hole for rugs and accessories. You can go to the box stores, and they’ve got inexpensive stuff but limited selection and quality. The other op-

tion is high-end designers, where the rugs are several thousand dollars, and the accessories are expensive. So, I wanted to give people a different option that’s affordable but higher quality and items that are more unique.”

The family began its business 22 years ago with a furniture store in Muncie, which is still in business, when Walls was 16.

Seven years later, he opened another Walls Furniture in Anderson after graduating from Ball State University with a degree in entrepreneurship.

“My parents started the furniture store,” Walls said. “So for 22 years, I’ve sold, delivered and repaired furniture.”

Walls Mattress and Walls Rug & Room are open from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Saturday and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday. For more, visit wallsmattress.com.

‘Million Dollar Quartet’ returns to ATI June 1-17

editorial@youarecurrent.com

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com “Million Dollar Quartet” was quite valuable to Actors Theatre of Indiana’s first run in the fall of 2016.

Theater “It broke all box office records. It’s definitely back by popular demand,” said ATI co-founder Don Farrell, who performs as Sam Phillips.

“We have most of the cast coming back.

Our Carl Perkins and our Jerry Lee Lewis are new.

“Our previous Jerry Lee Lewis has got the national tour. That’s why he can’t come in, but we have an amazing cast coming in.”

ATI will present “Million Dollar Quartet” from June 1 to June 17 at the Studio Theater in the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel.

“Our sales are doing really well,” Farrell said. “We are well ahead of our typical sales. Obviously, I want to encourage people to get their tickets as soon as possible.

It’s going to sell out. I know it will because it did before, and that’s one of the reasons we’re bringing it back.”

Gavin Rohrer will play Jerry Lee Lewis and Sean Riley will play Carl Perkins.

Both have played in the musical in other productions.

Returning to the cast are Brandon Alstott as Johnny Cash; Adam Tran as Elvis Presley; Nathan Shew as Fluke; and Betsy Norton as Dyanne.

As part of the show, ATI will give more information about the 2018-19 season, which opens with “A Comedy of Tenors,” from Sept. 7 to Sept. 30, followed by “It’s a Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play” Nov. 16 to Dec. 13; “Ruthless,” Jan. 25, 2019 to Feb. 17; and “Forbidden Broadway; It’s Back, It’s New and Better Than Ever!” April 26 to May 19. “‘It’s a Wonderful Life’ is nostalgic and sweet, and the other three shows are hysterically funny,” Farrell said.

Farrell said there is a possibility of additional shows.

“We have some big things planned for CarmelFest and the parade,” Farrell said.

“There is so much synergy and momentum

We have most of the cast coming back. Our Carl Perkins and our Jerry Lee Lewis are new.”

- ATI co-founder Don Farrell “The Sip-N-Song is going to be brand new for us to have right after opening,” Farrell said. “It’s a good opportunity to introduce them to the two new actors.

It’s going to be a great opportunity for

the cast and the audience who loved it so much the first time to be able to see the cast they saw the first time as well. This is our first time doing something like this tied in with the production. All these local businesses working together to support professional theater is marvelous.”

Tech crew workshop set for June 2 An ATI workshop, called “The Business of Backstage – A Theatre Tech Experience” is set from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m June 2 at the Studio Theater Rehearsal Room 141/142.

Set on Labor Day weekend in the joint backyard of two middle-aged widows, the story revolves around the melancholy lives of, among other characters, Helen Potts, Hal Carter, Millie Owens, Madge Owens, Flo Owens, Rosemary Sydney and Alan Seymour.

Loneliness, abandonment, regret, desperation and, ultimately, hope are among the themes.

Although times have changed since the award-winning play “Picnic” debuted on Broadway in 1953, Jen Otterman insists its message still connects with theater modern audiences.

“Overall, it is a love story,” said Otterman, who is directing Main Street Productions, Inc.’s presentation of “Picnic” at the Westfield Playhouse, 1836 W. Ind. 32 in Westfield.

The first of the eight-show run is June 1 at 7:30 p.m.

Otterman, a longtime director and former acting teacher at Hamilton Southeastern High School, is directing “Picnic” for the second time at Westfield Playhouse. The first time was in 2016, so she is well-versed in the nuances of staging playwright William Inge’s Pulitzer Prize-winning drama.

“It is set in the 1950s, so finding costumes and props that are appropriate to the time period is a bit of a challenge,” Otterman said.

“It is also a rather difficult set to design and construct because it is the exterior of two homes. Finally, it requires a very certain type of actor for a couple of the main roles, which makes casting the show a challenge.”

Buckingham Palace: Fit for a Queen Commentary by Don Knebel The 775 rooms of Buckingham Palace, located in the City of Westminster adjacent to St. James’s Park, include both the official residence of Queen Elizabeth and travel the administrative headquarters of the British monarchy.

Buckingham Palace stands on a site that has been in and out of royal hands since William of Normandy conquered England in 1066 A.D. In the early 17th century, King James I planted mulberry trees on the marshy site to cultivate silkworms. In 1698, the Duke of Buckingham acquired the property and built a large house on it. In 1761, King George III purchased “Buckingham House” as the private residence for 17-year-old Queen Charlotte. George, who resided in St. James’s Palace, visited Charlotte sufficiently often that she bore him 15 children, all but the oldest, who became King George IV, born in what became known as the “Queen’s House.”

Upon becoming king in 1820, George IV began enlarging the Queen’s House as the royal residence. In 1837, newly crowned Queen Victoria moved into the U-shaped Buckingham Palace, featuring a marble arch celebrating recent victories at the opening of its cour d’honneur (court of honor). Victoria soon found the three-sided palace too small for her liking. She enclosed the open end, moving the Marble Arch to its current location at the entrance to Hyde Park.

The center of the new eastern façade included the formal entrance and the balcony from which the royal family now

greets the public. In 1924, an 82-foot tall marble memorial to Queen Victoria was completed at the front of the palace, featuring a seated queen and statues representing charity, constancy, courage, motherhood, truth and victory.

Weather permitting, the changing of the queen’s guards occurs in front of Buckingham Palace at 10:45 a.m. on Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays. The state rooms are open to visitors during the summer.
