CCS: Demographic study supports elementary relocation

By Ann Marie Shambaugh AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com

The student population at Carmel Clay Schools is expected to peak in the 2021-22 school year before startEDUCATION ing a slow and steady decline, according to a demographic report presented to the school board Jan. 28.

The report, completed in November 2018

by Jerome McKibben of South Carolinabased McKibben Demographic Research, states that the student body population will continue to drop — even as Carmel’s population grows — because of a slowdown in new home construction and a rapid increase in empty-nester households.

McKibben told the school board most Carmel residents choose to stay in the city after their children graduate from CCS and don’t downsize until they reach their 70s, a move often triggered by the death of a spouse rather than retirement.

“The number of households turning over will clearly be going up over the next 10 years, but the number of households empty nesting are going to go up faster,” McKibben said.

The elementary school population peaked in the 2009-10 school year at 7,296 students. By the 2028-29 school year, the furthest the study predicts, elementary enrollment should be down to 6,361, a 12.8 percent drop from the peak.

The study shows declining enrollment at all elementary schools between 2018 and 2023 except Mohawk Trails (9.4 percent growth caused by a very small fifth-grade class leaving in 2020-21), West Clay Elementary (4.5 percent), Orchard Park (1.2 percent) and Towne Meadow (1.2 percent). Of the schools expected to grow, all but Mohawk Trails are west of Keystone Parkway.

Between 2018 and 2023, the four elementary schools west of Meridian Street are expected to decline in population by .68 percent, while the seven schools to the east are expected to decline 2.9 percent.

All 11 elementary schools are expected to experience declining enrollment between 2023 and 2028.

CCS has a capacity of approximately 7,800 elementary students, with 6,923 currently enrolled. During the 2018-19 school year, CCS officials said that of the 800 empty seats, only 100 were west of Meridian Street, the approximate geographic center

of town. Approximately 600 empty seats are east of Keystone.

“What’s happening here is your distribution of students and distribution of facilities is out of whack,” McKibben said.

Roger McMichael, CCS associate superintendent for business affairs, said the forecast results did not surprise him and that they support his 2018 recommendation to close Orchard Park Elementary after the 2020-21 school year and open a new elementary 5 miles northwest. The school board approved the facilities recommendation in June 2018, despite requests from many parents to delay the vote until after the 2018 demographic study was complete.

Early in the 2018 facilities discussions, McMichael suggested the district consider closing one or two elementary schools as enrollment declines. Previously, McMichael indicated other campuses may be considered for closure if the forecast holds, but the district is not looking at that option now.

“It is premature to discuss the number of schools that may be needed 10 years from now,” he said.

CCS will redistrict before the 2021-22 school year to accommodate the closure of Orchard Park and addition of the new campus on Clay Center Road. McMichael said he doesn’t expect CCS to complete another demographic study before redistricting occurs. He said the recent demographic study “probably got accelerated a bit” with the 2018 discussion to potentially close Orchard Park or Carmel Elementary.

CCS updates policies, awards bids Compiled by Ann Marie Shambaugh AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com The Carmel Clay Schools board of trustees approved policy changes and awarded bids for several upgrades at its Jan. 28 meeting.

What happened: The school board removed administrative leave with pay as a progressive discipline option for CCS staff.

What it means: Last school year, the district’s progressive discipline policy received public attention after the school board placed its former superintendent and human resources director on administrative leave with pay. Both resigned in January 2018 and continued to be paid after their resignations.

What’s next: Options remaining on the progressive discipline list include verbal counseling, a written warning, probation and suspension without pay.

What happened: The board approved changes to its public records policy.

What it means: The updated policy states that public records requests should be submitted through an online form, although paper copies will be made available to those who need them.

The changes also remove a requirement for the records access officer to grant or refuse a request within seven days.

What’s next: The new policy states that the district will “review the request and, within a reasonable amount of time, make responsible records available consistent with (the state’s Access to Public Records Act).”

What happened: The board awarded bids totaling $2.7 million for upgrades across the district.

What it means: Projects include flooring and painting at Carmel High School and Forest Dale Elementary, playground improvements at College Wood, updates to the CHS swimming pool and district-wide paving improvements.

What’s next: Award of the bids is subject to the successful sale of general obligation bonds.

What happened: The board approved several change orders to upgrade projects at Carmel High School, the Educational Services Center and Forest Dale Elementary.

What it means: In total, the change orders credit more than $112,000 back to CCS. Changes include an $81,330 credit for CHS painting work inadvertently bid in the wrong year, $10,950 to add a path at the football stadium practice fields and $133,410 to cover floor repairs.

When Derric suffered sudden cardiac arrest, his life flashed before his eyes. A rhythm disorder had Derric moments from death.

But Community surgeons placed an implantable cardioverter-defibrillator (ICD) into his chest to reduce the risk of his ventricles going into a dangerous rhythm. The ICD does on the inside, what shock paddles do outside. The technology allows Derric’s heart to be continually monitored. He is back to smiling while watching his kids swing in perfect rhythm on the playground.

Legislators talk hate crime bill at local town hall

By Sadie Hunter sadie@youarecurrent.com

Indiana lawmakers recently took time to hold a public town hall meeting Jan. 26 at the Hamilton GOVERNMENT County Government and Judicial Center in Noblesville to discuss issues in the current legislative session.

State Sens. J.D. Ford (R-Indianapolis), John Ruckleshaus (R-Indianapolis), Victoria Spartz (R-Noblesville) and State Reps. Tony Cook (R-Cicero) and Donna Schaibley (R-Carmel) took part.

Moderated by local attorney and government commentator Abdul-Hakim Shabazz, topics ranged from teacher pay to school safety to medical marijuana. But the one topic that took up most of the discussion time was proposed hate crime legislation.

Speaking directly to Cook, who has authored a hate crime bill introduced to this year’s General Assembly, Shabazz asked for additional detail.

Cook’s bill would implement terms for sentence enhancements, whereby a person must first be convicted of the crime associated with the hate crime, and also outlines what qualifies as a hate crime.

“When the sentencing comes, that’s when the prosecutor can argue for an enhancement to the sentencing. Since the (U.S.) Supreme Court ruled on (hate crimes) in 1993, they established protected classes and categories – race, gender, religion, age – the types of things we all have,” Cook said.

“People will argue that it’s just unlimited, but you know some of the states that have it, like Wisconsin, have had it since the 1980s.

So, what (I) did was glean out the best (categories) that have stood the test of time. My bill has 13, including all the ones in the Civil Rights Act, but it also adds sexual orientation, sexual identity (and military and law enforcement). I tried to take it and base it on FBI data, the number of incidents we were seeing in Indiana. The top three were race, sexual orientation/identity and religion.

“I think we’re past the time where we can do nothing. Right now, I’m frustrated because I’m not sure the bill will be heard, which I don’t think is the democratic process, to be honest with you.”

The 13 “identifiers” laid out in Cook’s bill are age, race, religion, ethnicity, national origin, ancestry, color, gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, disability, status as a police

officer and service in the U.S. Armed Forces.

Schaibley, speaking after Cook, said she is “absolutely behind” the bill.

“I live a little over a mile away from the synagogue in Carmel, and I’ve been supportive of hate crimes legislation for years,” Schaibley said. “What happened at the synagogue was an act of graffiti, but it’s not normal graffiti. When you put a Nazi cross on a synagogue, that’s meant to intimidate the Jewish community and people at the synagogue. It has ramifications beyond just simple graffiti.”

Schaibley also spoke on how the state’s lack of hate crime legislation is potentially hurting the state’s economy and business communities.

“We are one of five states without hate crimes legislation, and when people look at coming to Indiana, they look at that,” she said. “Young professionals look at that. We want to keep young people in Indiana, and if we want to attract young employees, especially tech employees, we have to move this thing forward.”

Ford, the lone Democrat participant, agreed with Cook and Schaibley.

“I think with this bill, all we’re asking judges to do is take a look at the situation,” Ford said. “(Not having a hate crime law) does portray us to be a very backwards state. It’s the right thing to do.”

Spartz didn’t voice disapproval or support of Cook’s proposed bill, but rather discussed her frustration with the time spent debating the issue with no resolution.

“I would like us to debate and discuss this issue, figure out the best solution and move on so we don’t have to do this every year,” she said.

Zotec proposes new HQ

By Ann Marie Shambaugh AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com Carmel-based Zotec Partners is planning to build its new headquarters in its own backyard.

“I grew up spending a lot of time at Riley as a patient,” Stanley said of Crohn’s, an inflammatory bowel disease. “I wanted to be a nurse just like my nurses. That sparked my passion for it.”

Now a registered nurse in organ transplant and neurosurgery at Riley, the Carmel resident is in her second year as an Indianapolis Colts cheerleader. She and her husband, Alex, have owned Books & Brews in Carmel for more than a year.

Stanley, 26, said the business plays host to at least one nonprofit fundraiser every month, sometimes as many as two or three.

“We try to keep it as local as possible.

We’ve done anything from the Humane Society to the Milk Bank,” she said.

Stanley’s work as a nurse and her volunteer work was instrumental in her teammates selecting her as the first Indianapolis Colts Woman of Year.

Ram earns Grand Slam crown

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Rajeev Ram can check another major goal off his list.

The 2002 Carmel High School graduate and the Czech Republic’s TENNIS Barbora Krejcikova won the Australian Open mixed doubles title by beating John Patrick-Smith and Astra Sharma 7-6 (7-3), 6-1 in the championship Jan. 26. It was Ram’s first Grand Slam title.

“It’s something that I had really thought about a lot,” Ram said. “It’s something to get off my back. It’s not men’s doubles where I hope to win a few. It’s nice to be at the end of the tournament and come out a winner.”

Ram, 34, is believed to be the first tennis player from Indiana to win a Grand Slam championship.

Ram and Krejcikova, who split $185,000 for the title, previously played in the 2017 Australian Open, losing in the first round.

“We decided to play again and it worked out really well,” Ram said. “We both managed to play well and pick up the other person at the right time.”

Krejcikova is ranked No. 2 in the world in women’s doubles and ended 2018 ranked No. 1. Ram, ranked No. 21 in men’s doubles, won the silver medal in mixed doubles with

Venus Williams in the 2016 Rio Olympics. He followed that up by reaching the U.S. Open mixed doubles final with CoCo Vandeweghe in 2016.

Ram would like to pair with Krejcikova again. Mixed doubles are only played in the four Grand Slam events each year.

“She is still playing singles and it’s difficult to play three events in a Grand Slam, so it will depend on her schedule and mine,” Ram said. “If it works out, we would definitely play together again.”

Ram only started playing mixed doubles regularly in the last few years after giving up competing in singles in 2018. Ram and Great Britain’s Joe Salisbury, who plan to play together all year, lost in the Australian Open’s third round to eventual champions, Pierre-Hugues Herbert and Nicolas Mahut.

CHS wrestlers forced to forfeit

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Eight Carmel High School wrestlers were forced to forfeit matches for 19 competitions this season after it was IHSAA learned they were using sauna or sweat suits to lose weight during practice.

The suits, which are rubber, vinyl or plastic, are designed to make wrestlers sweat profusely and lose weight rapidly to qualify for a weight class. The suits were deemed unsafe and banned for use in high school and college wrestling. Rule changes were made after three college wrestlers died in a six-week span in 1997 because of strenuous weight-cutting workouts.

“Carmel High School self-reported violations of the National Federation of State High School Associations wrestling weight loss rules by several of its wrestlers,” Indiana High School Athletic Association assistant commissioner Robert Faulkens stated.

“The violations occurred over several weeks during the regular season, and the penalties for those violations are match forfeitures by

the individuals involved, which affects their win-loss record and negatively impacts their seed within the sectional bracket.”

Carmel captured the Frankfort sectional team title Jan. 26 with seven individual champions.

The regional was scheduled for Feb. 2 in North Montgomery.

Carmel Clay Schools Supt. Michael Beresford said in a statement that once the information was brought to the school’s attention, the district investigated and immediately self-reported the rule violation.

“We are disappointed that this occurred under the supervision of our coaches and appropriate corrective action has been taken,” Beresford said. “We remain committed to providing our student-athletes with a safe and positive environment that promotes good character and sportsmanship.”

A Carmel Clay Schools spokeswoman said there would be no comment on whether the coaches would face any disciplinary action as the district doesn’t comment on personnel matters.

Japanese emperor honors Carmel man for building economic bridges

By Ann Marie Shambaugh • AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com Larry Ingraham grew up in Michigan, but for the last 35 years his heart has been in Indiana and Japan.

The Carmel resident has devoted his COVER STORY career to promoting Indiana in Japan (and vice versa), and in November 2018 Japanese Emporer Akihito selected Ingraham as a recipient of the Order of the Rising Sun, one of the top honors awarded by the Japanese government. Ingraham officially received the honor Jan. 29 during a ceremony at the Skyline Club in downtown Indianapolis.

“It’s something I never expected to receive,” said Ingraham, who founded the consulting firm Ingraham & Associates in 1990 after working for the state of Indiana for several years. “Working alone, heading up my own company all of these years, it’s been very easy to feel unappreciated and out of the limelight from time to time. To receive this recognition from the Japanese government is just wonderful.”

The Japanese emperor will abdicate at the end of April, which places Ingraham among the final group to receive the Order of the Rising Sun from him.

“Over those 30 years (Akihito has been emporer) is exactly when Larry made a great contribution to Japan and Indiana relations,” said Naoki Ito, consul-general of Japan in the Consulate-General of Japan in Chicago. “I think this is really significant that Larry is being honored by the Japanese emperor among the last batch.”

Ingraham, 69, has spent time in Japan as a member of the U.S. military, on business and for pleasure. No matter his reason for visiting, his goal is the same.

“People ask me what I do, and I say, ‘I’m a carpenter.’

I’ve been building bridges between Indiana and Japan all of these years, trying to make sure both sides understand the other,” he said.

‘The biggest culture shock’

Tragedy struck early for Ingraham, an only child raised by his aunt and uncle in Adrian, Mich., after his parents died young.

He enlisted in the U.S. Air Force to avoid being drafted, hoping that it would give him greater control over his fate.

The teen who had only traveled outside Michigan once became a dental technician in the military and spent 15 months in Taiwan before getting his first taste of Japan, where he was stationed for two years.

“The military was the biggest culture shock. I had led a sheltered life in Adrian, Mich., and then I got thrown into the melting pot of the Air Force. That was probably my greatest education,” he said. “Then they sent me overseas, and that was another great education. Fortunately for me, my DNA was such that I enjoyed foreign cultures. There were a lot of guys who were the opposite.”

After he completed his military service, Ingraham returned home to attend college, earning a degree in Asian

Studies from the University of Michigan. But soon he was back in Japan, working first as an English teacher and then at a consulting firm.

He was planning to return to the U.S. to get his MBA when he saw a notice in an English-language newspaper in 1982 that a U.S. state was seeking a director for its office in Japan. He applied, assuming the unnamed state was on the West Coast.

“About a week later, to my surprise, I got a letter in the mail that had a big, red Indiana stamped on the upper lefthand corner,” he said. “I thought, ‘Well, at least I’ve driven through Indiana growing up in southern Michigan.’”

At the time, 18 Japanese companies had set up shop in Indiana. Three decades later, that number has risen to more than 300, and Ingraham is credited with much of that success.

Alan Kimbell, former deputy director of the Indiana Dept. of Commerce, said at the Jan. 29 ceremony that the decision to hire Ingraham as director of the state’s Japan office was “obvious and easy.”

“The best thing I did for Indiana was to hire Larry,” Kimbell said.

Ito said Ingraham is so successful in part because of his ability to make Hoosier and Japanese clients feel at ease.

“His charm and wit make him instant friends with everyone,” Ito said. “His Japanese-like approach and Hoosier warmth are so persuasive and effective.“

Close call

Ingraham served as director of the East Asian Office of the Indiana Dept. of Commerce from 1983 to 1986, a period that led to the openings of Subaru-Isuzu Automotive in

Lafayette, Enkei in Columbus and Alpine Electronics in Greenwood, among others. But he said his greatest professional accomplishment wasn’t anything he did, but rather something he prevented.

In the spring of 1984, Ingraham noticed that a Japanese news article listed Indiana as one of a handful of states that had allowed taxation of state and worldwide earnings, a fact that came as a surprise to Ingraham and other Indiana leaders. After doing some research, Ingraham learned that Indiana law allowed the tax to be charged, although it never had been. He worked with Indiana legislators to quickly eliminate the possibility of the tax going into effect and got to work spreading the news among Japanese investors.

“It’s so important that Indiana had an office in Japan. If there hadn’t been an Indiana office and director, we might never have known about this and Indiana might never have been able to take action,” he said. “We might have been silently excluded (from investment opportunities) without our knowing it.”

With the business ties growing stronger between Indiana and Japan, Ingraham and his wife, Shizuko, moved to the U.S. to raise their two daughters, Helen and Ann. Although they had never lived in the Hoosier state, there was no question where they’d settle.

“I had sold Indiana so long I was sold on it,” Ingraham said.

ESSAY Changing batteries

LETTER Certificates of need lead to monopolies

Commentary by Terry Anker It is doing it a little bit today.

And, it is incredibly annoying. The little arrow that glides across the computer screen is jumping from one spot to another. It started a few days ago. The movement became somewhat jagged, as if it were being dragged along rather than sliding effortlessly. We know the problem. It happens every so often. It is time for new batteries.

Still, we endure the inconvenience. Frustrated, we might take out the existing batteries and put them in again. For reasons that elude understanding, it seems to make the device work for a short while longer. Some of us allow the mouse to “rest,” as if the batteries will spontaneously recharge.

Eventually, even the most frugal are confronted with the inevitable need for change. We cannot wait longer.

The functionality is so debilitated – or even stopped – that we must find our way to the supply closet to retrieve replacements. Yet, we hope that there are batteries to be had, in the event the person before took the last one and left us to replenish the supply.

What is it that compels us to wait until the last drop of energy is exhausted before acting? Are we that lazy? Are we that conservative? Or, is it simply a reflection of our innate and natural state? We don’t tend to move until we must.

And, we work to avoid the peril of having to replace the battery supply if we use the last ones.

But from the simple things can come a clear representation of our thinking. How much of our lives is ready for a recharge if only we’d take the action required to make it happen? Is now the time?

Weighty matter of sleep Commentary by Danielle Wilson My greatest joy in life is a good night’s sleep (after my kids, of course. I’m not that terrible a mother).

HUMOR To that end, I’ve spent a lot of time and energy (and sometimes cash) to create the perfect nocturnal environment. The right mattress, a high-end sound machine, black-out blinds and a tube sock that masquerades as, well, a mask, come together each evening, preferably before 9 p.m., to help me achieve the ultimate eight to 10 hours of restorative ZZZs. Unfortunately, I’m not always successful.

I live with three teenagers, a bald man and a 6-year-old Labrador who thinks she’s a Chihuahua puppy. I also have reached that stage in life when hot flashes, multiple potty breaks and financial anxiety occasionally conspire against me, typically from 1 to 4 a.m. Despite my best efforts and 600 threadcount sheets, I’m lucky to have two decent nights in a row.

That is, until now! My latest acquisition, though still in the early test phase, is proving to be the miracle, quite literally, of my dreams. It’s a 20-pound weighted blanket that looks like a typical quilted comforter but is too heavy to lift. In fact, when I crawl underneath it, I have a hard time moving.

At all. And that’s the point! Sure, the first few nights I thought I was slowly being suffocated to death, but I can honestly report that during the past month, I’ve slept more soundly and deeply than ever.

Doo says it’s psychosomatic: I think I should be sleeping better, therefore I am.

But who cares? I’m experiencing my second greatest joy nightly! See? Mother of the Year!

Peace out.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK “There is not charm equal to tenderness of heart.”

-Jane Austen

Editor, Doesn’t anyone see the irony of a Republican Indiana assemblyman proposing new laws and regulations essentially to thwart the private sector from determining its own best interests? Especially in the current environment where deregulation has proven a tonic to economic well-being? The academic research has convincingly shown that certificates of need are not able to restrain health care costs, the ostensible justification. It’s why some states have repealed their CON requirements. CONs have most often been used to establish or maintain a monopoly position by competitors, which, as we know, allows that provider to increase its charges to consumers.

In all of those “Best Places to (fill in the blank)” surveys, not Carmel nor Indiana nor Indianapolis nor this metro area has ever been identified as a place that is over-doctored or has too many medical facilities. Of course, this drumbeat for a state CON isn’t about containing medical costs or determining need, it is about preventing St. Vincent’s from developing a facility at 96th and Spring Mill to maintain the character of the area.

Now, whether that development is good or bad for the area is a (legitimate) question, but the advocacy for CON legislation/regulation is a cynical, disingenuous effort.

Doug Ellrich, Indianapolis

Not ‘bacon’ to be cured Commentary by Dick Wolfsie This was a real ad: “The McDonald’s free bacon offer will take place on Jan. 29, 2019.

Customers may add bacon to HUMOR anything for free.”

Yes, bacon on your fries, in your McFlurry, on your Big Mac or in your backpack.

Back in 2007, the Food Network published its “Bacon Issue” (this was a marketing effort to compensate for its relatively poorselling “Tofu/Kale Issue”). The cover featured chocolate bacon cupcakes, and a lollipop made of bacon — the perfect way to lure little ones away from sugar, which we all know is so unhealthy.

The magazine contains a detachable booklet with 50 recipes for bacon appetizers — things like bacon jam, bacon-wrapped bananas and bacon ice cream. If you are stuck at a party where the only hors d’oeuvre is a vegetable plate and yogurt dip, you can leave the brochure next to the broccoli before you split for the Rib Shack.

There are countless recipes for bacon-y desserts. How about a giant BLT cake that looks like the classic sandwich? The bacon is fashioned out of Tootsie Rolls, the toma-

February 5, 2019

VIEWS toes are made of red gummy bears and the mayo is plain white frosting. Sliced angel food cake substitutes as the bread. Don’t ask me about the lettuce. Trust me. You don’t want to know.

A survey asks, “Do you like your bacon crisp or not crisp?” The result was 72 percent crisp and 28 percent not crisp. It is the only poll in U.S. history where there were no undecideds.

Bacon-of-the-month clubs deliver a different kind of bacon right to your door, with recipes and ads for the latest bacon products like bacon rub, bacon-flavored envelope flaps and bacon-flavored lip balm. I may join either Bacon Buddies or Pork Pals. I quit my old group: My wife didn’t like my getting packages from “The Strip Club.”

Finally, we read stories about bacon obsession, like the bride who carried a bacon bouquet shaped like roses.

Yes, this is a sickness. Ironically, no one wants to be cured.

Rose Senior Living holds drive

By Sara Baldwin Schatz sara@youarecurrent.com Rose Senior Living Carmel partnered with Indiana Blood Center, now managed by Versiti, to play host to a GIVING BACK Jan. 29 blood drive. The blood center bus parked in front of the senior living center, 1285 Fairfax Manor Dr., Carmel, during the event.

Blood center technicians Danielle Denise and Charles Arvin accepted blood from willing donors, including several Rose Senior Living staff.

“Rose Senior Living Carmel prides itself in giving back to the community in any way we can,” said Dana Shore, marketing and sales director at Rose Senior Living. “When we realized January was National Blood Donor Month, we knew hosting a blood drive would be a great way to give back.”

Indiana Blood Center announced in early January that it was in dire need of donations, as blood donations historically decline in winter months. Certain blood types, such as B positive, face a critical shortage.

“Each unit can help up to three people,” Denise said.

Shore said Rose Senior Living wanted

to challenge others to make giving blood a priority.

“These donations are imperative to helping those in need,” she said.

Dentist retires, daughter steps up

The retiring Marks is TRANSITION turning over the practice to his business partner, who also happens to be his daughter, Dr. Emily Murray.

Carmel-based car dealership Indy Wholesale Direct in constructing a new building in Zionsville.

AUTO The luxury used car dealership, 519 Industrial Dr. in Carmel, has been in business since 2011 and sells an average of 100 cars each month. Its inventory includes Audi, Acura, BMW, Infinity and Jaguar.

The dealership will build its 28,000square-foot showroom and headquarters on 2 acres at the intersection of West 106th Street and Bennett Parkway in Zionsville.

Ben Wheat, president of Indy Wholesale Direct, said he wants to expand his inventory.

“We’ve just outgrown our location in Carmel,” Wheat said. “We want to stock about 300 cars in our inventory and there’s just not enough room. Plus, there aren’t a lot of car dealerships in Zionsville and the market is not as crowded.”

The new building will have features not traditionally found in car dealerships.

“The mezzanine upstairs will kind of be a remake on the traditional customer lounge,” Wheat said. “We’re going to have foosball, ping-pong, billiards, a golf simulator, a putting green and an arcade. It’s for our em-

ployees and customers.”

It will also include a 6,000-square-foot showroom.

“This allows us to have a lot of cars indoors because we do have a lot of high-end inventory,” Wheat said.

The dealership has 15 full-time employees.

Wheat said he wants to increase staff to around 25 with the new facility.

“I have decided to keep my Carmel location as well,” Wheat said. “I determined that if I gave up my existing location I’d be out of room again in a couple years. With car sales, the more inventory you have available for sale, the more opportunities you’ll have to sell. With both locations, eventually I could have close to 400 cars for sale.”

Friends open jewelry store

By Renee Larr • news@currentincarmel Mary Leppert and Samantha Hurst Larkins have a friendship bonded by gold. The Indianapolis natives have NEW BIZ been friends for years and began working professionally together when Leppert brought Larkins’s jewelry line into G. Thrapp Jewelers, where she worked.

In 2016, the friends opened their first jewelry store together, Metalmark Fine Jewelry, in Denver, Colo., where Larkins lives. The women then decided it was time to open a location closer to their hometown and settled on Carmel, opening a shop at 211 W. Main St. in October 2017.

“It took us a while to find a place,” Larkins said. “Our broker said we should go check out what’s going on up on Main Street in Carmel. We checked out the space and pretty much signed on the dotted line.”

Metalmark specializes in eclectic jewelry not found in typical jewelry stores.

“The range of the jewelry is completely individualized,” Larkins said. “You could buy a $90 leather bracelet or a $10,000 pair of diamond studs. We’re trying to empower our guests to find something they love.

The space was designed with guests’ comfort in mind.

“The space in Carmel is totally different,” Leppert said. “We have a kitchen island right in the middle. We wanted people to feel like they’re in someone’s home so that they could just come over and sit down at the island with a glass of wine or just sit and talk about jewelry.”

Kruze takes on legendary role of Atticus Finch in Civic’s ‘To Kill a Mockingbird’

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Steve Kruze is ready to tackle a legendary literary role.

Kruze will play attorney THEATER Atticus Finch in Civic Theatre’s production of “To Kill a Mockingbird” Feb. 8 to 23 at The Tarkington at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel.

Finch defends a black man, Tom Robinson, falsely accused of raping a white woman in Alabama in the 1930s.

Kruze said he has always seen the story as told through the eyes as Finch’s daughter, Jean Louise, nicknamed Scout.

“I’m trying to be honest to what she remembers her father to be,” Kruze said.

“Telling this story to a contemporary audience is difficult because the language can be coarse. We’re being as honest to script as it is. It’s still relevant and still important to have the discussion.”

Kruze, a Plainfield resident, is pleased there will be matinees for students and teachers.

“We’ll have a discussion with young people on what does this mean, first. Have things gotten any better (as far as racism)? And if not, what can we do?” he said.

“The thing we’re exploring about Atticus is he wants to get it right, he doesn’t have to be right. He’s trying to impart that to his children. It’s been an interesting process to figure out who he is.”

Kruze hasn’t read the book by Harper Lee since high school 35 years ago.

“I only saw the movie one time in college,” Kruze said.

Gregory Peck famously played the role of Finch in the 1962 movie.

“The movie is its own thing from the play, so there are some differences,” said Kruze, whose wife, Christine, is cast as Miss Stephanie. “There are some liberties that have to be taken from the book to condense it into a certain amount of time.

It’s difficult to take any classic literature and boil it down. What do you leave out?”

Bridget Bingham, a 12-year-old from

CHS set to stage ‘Aladdin’

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Jim Peterson was on a mission to find a show to direct for Carmel High School students that fit his criteria.

THEATER “It was hard to find a story that had a large cast and find something I liked that would appeal to children,” Peterson said. “A lot of things that I found I wasn’t drawn (to), but this one I liked because it was close to Shahrazad’s tale.”

He found the right mix with “Aladdin and the Wonderful Lamp,” which is set from Feb. 7 to 9 at the school auditorium.

With a larger auditorium, Peterson tries to produce a play that will attract children from Carmel.

Language is the biggest challenge for senior Megan Goodrich, who plays Princess Adora.

“I was not familiar with this version of the story before. I’ve only seen the Disney version,” Goodrich said. “It’s a little oldschool and royal-sounding with the larger words. In the past, I’ve played younger characters.

Sophomore Austin Audia plays Aladdin in his first lead role in high school.

“This is definitely a lot more dialogue heavy,” Audia said.

Audia played one of the Lost Boys in “Peter and the Starcatcher.”

“I’m seeing some similarities between Aladdin and a Lost Boy,” Audia said. “They’re both kind of poor, mischievous and always getting in trouble. Kind of charming in a way. I’m fortunate to be cast in this role and I’m loving it so far.”

The performances will be a 7 p.m. Feb. 7, 8, 9 and 2 p.m. Feb. 9, For tickets, visit ticketracker.com.

Chocolate, jewelry on display

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com It seems fitting that Art on Main would feature chocolates, jewelry and art in February.

GALLERY The Carmel gallery will feature chocolatier and Indiana Artisan Julie Bolejack. She was featured in the 2018 Forbes Magazine gift guide for her artisan chocolates.

Bolejack, from Shelbyville, previously had a Chocolate for the Spirit store in Carmel.

Indiana Artisan jewelry artist Pam Hurst’s work will be featured as well. Hurst’s jewelry is sterling silver necklaces, bracelets, rings and earrings.

“Chocolate, jewelry and fine art, it does not get much better than that,” said Kim Greene, one of the Art on Main partners.

Artwork by students of two other Art on Main partners, Randall Scott Harden and Nancy Keating, will be on display in February. Greene and Keating live in Carmel.

Harden lives in Noblesville.

“I teach them, and they teach me,” said Harden, who teaches intermediate oil painting classes at Art on Main. “I learn a lot from my students.”

2/8 - 2/23

Julie Bolejack’s chocolates will be on sale at Art on Main. (Submitted photo)

Keating teaches an introductory class at SoHo Café & Gallery and advanced classes at her private studio in Carmel.

“Four of my standout students will be displaying their mosaic work,” Keating said.

There also will be an exhibit by abstract artist Esther McQueen, a Herron School of Art student.

“It’s really a launching pad for an emerging artist to have a gallery show,” Keating said.

The artists plan to be present for Meet Me on Main, formerly the Second Saturday Gallery Walk, from 5 to 9 p.m. Feb. 9.

CYT is off to see ‘The Wizard’

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Dorothy is a role Abby Drake has longed to play.

“I’ve loved ‘Wizard of Oz’ THEATER since I was tiny,” Drake said.

“Judy Garland was my hero, so I cried when I found out.”

The 17-year-old Westfield resident will play Dorothy in the Christian Youth Theater’s production of “The Wizard of Oz,” Feb. 8 to 10 at Marian University.

Drake, a homeschooled junior, is performing in her fourth CYT production.

“This is the most lines I’ve ever had and there are only two times where I’m not on stage,” Drake said. “And dancing in heels is rough.”

Gavin Stewart, a seventh-grader at Carmel’s Clay Middle School, is cast as his favorite “Wizard of Oz” character, too.

“I always wanted to be the Cowardly Lion,’ Stewart said. “The Cowardly Lion is very animated, and I have a lisp. It’s fun to be over-exaggerated.”

As a sixth-grader, Stewart played Toto in Clay’s production of “Wizard of Oz.” Christian Baltz, a Carmel resident and an eighth-grader at Merle Sidener Gifted Acad-

Guerin Catholic High School freshman Marci Marcus, a Carmel resident, is playing the Scarecrow.

“I thought I would have to play it as a man, but they said they keep my gender,” Marcus said. “My dad showed me the show and I completely fell in love with it.”

Steak, marinated pork, shredded pork, pulled pork, beef tongue, chicken mole, chorizo and grilled chicken are available for $3.50. Fish or shrimp tacos are $4.

I opted for one grilled fish, one shrimp and one grilled chicken taco. One of my main reasons for going to Verde is it doesn’t skimp on fillings and has a soft taco shell that can accommodate the surplus of ingredients. All of Verde’s menu items I have ever tried always taste fresh and authentic.

Suggested pairings: Verde offers a margarita flight, which I highly suggest. The Margarita Trio is $12 and comes with mini servings of the restaurant’s patron, Texas and house margaritas.

They arrive on a cute little wooden board, and they all taste amazing and feature garnishes like pineapple wedges or lime slices.

Solutioneer when inspiration doesn’t match budget Commentary by Randy Sorrell and Bill Bernard With the proliferation of websites and television shows that highlight myriad ways to enhance every room of your home, how do you decide what OUTDOOR LIVING to do and how far to go? If money were no object, everyone could have the all-white kitchen of their dreams. You could have an outdoor kitchen that magically has you creating meals on par with Bobby Flay.

Sometimes, the inspirational photos and dreams don’t fully align with the available budget, and you still want to re-create something amazing. That’s when solutioneering comes into play. That’s when creativity is imperative.

Perhaps the answer isn’t to tear out all of the kitchen cabinets because you cringe every time you see your arched cabinet doors. After all, they are still in great shape.

Perhaps the answer is to keep the cabinet boxes and replace all the doors and drawer faces. Perhaps the answer is to update the crown molding and simply paint the cabinets.

Perhaps the answer isn’t to tear out the spacious 10-by10 concrete slab the builder graciously provided you. Perhaps the answer is to incorporate that perfectly serviceable concrete slab into an inspiring composition of concrete, crushed stone and travertine pavers. Turn that afterthought

Before-and-after shots of an outside home redisign. (Submitted photos)

into an asset.

There are always options. The answer always lies in determining what your budget is and what solution provides the best value for your investment. Add in a healthy dose of experienced creativity and what you get is solutioneering.

Stay home. Be moved.

Ravens and bones in Lisbon Commentary by Don Knebel Visitors to Lisbon, Portugal find plenty of evidence that St. Vincent of Saragossa and ravens are important to the city, but even locals can be hard pressed to explain why.

St. Vincent, born near Saragossa in northTRAVEL east Spain, was a Christian deacon executed under Roman Emperor Diocletian in 304 A.D. What happened next is the stuff of numerous legends, usually involving ravens. According to one story, Vincent’s body washed up on the southwest coast of the Iberian Peninsula and was buried in a grave guarded by ravens. In 1139, Afonso Henriques became the first king of Portugal, newly independent of Spanish León, and soon recaptured Lisbon from the Muslims. Christian relics were the rage among European kings, and Afonso wanted an important relic to commemorate his victory, so he sent agents to southern Portugal to find the remains of Vincent said to be buried there. They found what they concluded were the saint’s bones and took them to Lisbon by ship, reportedly accompanied by ravens. A grateful Afonso made Vincent Lisbon’s patron saint, built the Monastery of São Vicente de Fora (St. Vincent Outside the Walls) on a hill overlooking the city, and incorporated a ship with two ravens bringing Vincent’s bones to Lisbon into the city’s coat of arms. He deposited the bones in the Cathedral of Lisbon being built over a destroyed mosque.

Today, many Lisbon streetlamps feature metal representations of the ship with two ravens that became the symbol of the city. In 1970, a large statue of St. Vincent holding

Chivalry isn’t dead – yet. Follow these tips to make sure your Valentine’s date wants to smooch you into oblivion at the end of the night. After all, yours truly was quite the dating doyen prior to shifting my GRAMMAR GUY interests to grammar.

For instance, women love it when you open doors for them. They love it when you open jars for them. However, women don’t like it when you open their mail and read it before they get home from work. They also aren’t too happy when you open their medicine cabinets to check which prescriptions they’re taking. Trust me.

Now that you’re getting your dating life figured out, I want to tell you how to properly write dates. Perhaps your shortcomings in writing dates correctly are having an effect on whether or not you’re getting romantic dates. It could be.

Anyway, according to the AP Stylebook, you should use figures for dates and years, and don’t use -st, -nd, -rd, or -th with dates. So, you shouldn’t write February 14th or February fourteenth; always write Feb. 14. You wouldn’t write Nineteen hundred and eighty-five (although that’s one of my favorite Wings songs); you should always write out 1985.

As if that weren’t enough mind-blowing clarity on writing dates, I have more rules to lay on you. When it comes to

the iconic ship was dedicated on Miradouro Portas do Sol, a Lisbon overlook providing a magnificent view of the Monastery of St. Vincent, reconstructed beginning in the 16th century to include twin towers. The bones claimed to be those of St. Vincent remain in a silver coffin in the Cathedral of Lisbon.

How to get your Valentine’s date just right Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt

months, they are always capitalized. The months of March, April, May, June and July should never be abbreviated, but you should abbreviate the remaining months when they’re followed by a date (e.g., Feb. 14). The correct abbreviations for these months are Jan., Feb., Aug., Sept., Oct., Nov., and Dec. Add -s (but no apostrophe) after numbers when you’re writing decades or centuries (e.g., the 1900s). Do add an apostrophe when you’re writing a decade if numerals are omitted (e.g., the ’20s).

I’m going to throw this in because I’m sure you’re wondering: The word February comes from a Roman festival of washing and purification (called Februa) that happened every spring. It was previously known as Lupercalia, which was a violent, sexually charged fertility festival. In the late fifth century A.D., Pope Gelasius replaced this pagan holiday with St. Valentine’s Day, which remembers the martyrdom of St. Valentine on Feb. 14, 269.

If you want to speak the language of love to your sweetheart, make sure you know how to write dates the right way. Otherwise, the only dates you’ll be getting are the kind that are less-good versions of raisins.
