Friends and colleagues reflect on Carmel suspect’s motive

By Ann Marie Shambaugh AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com He was known as a philanthropist, an advocate for the wellbeing of animals and a kind and caring person, but on Feb. 17 update Lucius “Lu” Hamilton added double homicide suspect, man on the run and suicide victim to his resume.

Hamilton, 61, who lived on a Carmel estate along 116th Street, became a wanted man after police said he shot his niece, Katherine Giehll, 31, and Hamilton her four-year-old son, Raymond Patrick Giehll, the morning of Feb. 17 in their Zionsville home on Old Hunt Club Road. After a manhunt that included local law enforcement agencies, the FBI and others, Hamilton was found dead from an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound in a downtown Indianapolis hotel.

Those who knew Hamilton watched the news in horror throughout the day, wondering what could have caused such a tragic change in their friend.

“You wouldn’t ever, ever in a million years have thought this individual to be a murderer, and that is just what has got us so dumbfounded. He was very kind and generous to me, and very thoughtful,” said Tom SanSantelli telli, a Boone County councilor and member of the Traders Point Hunt Club, an organization that Hamilton “abruptly” left in 2012.

“That was a signal to me that something wasn’t quite right, because it was an important part of his life,” said Santelli, adding that he didn’t read much into it at the time.

Santelli said Hamilton’s departure from the club – whose members do not use guns or kill animals during their hunts – came around the same time he had surgery for back problems, and he wonders if Hamilton may have become addicted to painkillers. He can think of few other ways to explain how his good friend transformed into a “hideous monster.” Police did find alcohol and prescription drugs in Hamilton’s hotel room.

Hamilton worked as a senior major gifts officer at Wabash College – which went into lockdown during the manhunt. Santelli said Hamilton had helped organize various charitable fundraisers over the years, and he served as chair of the board for the Humane Society of Indianapolis in 2002.

“I had talked to him once or twice on the phone, but that has been several years. I had invited him to come and see the place. When he left, the place was nearly $3 million in debt,” said John Aleshire, CEO of the Humane Society of Indianapolis. “All of that (debt) is gone, the organization is very much on track and even more, but I could never get a time with him to come and see us.”

Police said that they believe financial gain was the motive in the killings. Santelli said he had heard rumblings of disagreements between family members regarding their inherited fortune, but he never got the impression it could escalate to murder.

Santelli last saw Hamilton a couple of months ago at a funeral, where Hamilton and his wife, Liz, seemed completely normal, he said. He didn’t try to contact Hamilton during the search, but he wishes he could have given his longtime friend one final message.

“I would’ve liked to have had the opportunity to go down to the hotel and talk to him and try and convince him to give himself up,” he said. “He needed to be served justice from the standpoint that he took a cowardly way out.”

Dispatches Correction – In the Feb. 2 edition of Current in Carmel, the locations of some of Carmel’s first schools were incorrect. The “Blue School” was at 106th Street and Haverstick Road in a building that has been converted into a private residence. The original Carmel High School, built in 1887, was near First Avenue and Range Line Road. The district superintendent in 1970 was Robert Hartman.

Make-A-Wish fundraiser – AH Collection is hosting a fundraiser to benefit Make-A-Wish from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. Feb. 24 at its Clay Terrace shop, 14511 Clay Terrace Blvd. A second fundraiser will be held March 10 at its Hamilton Town Center location. Between 5 to 8 p.m. both dates, the event will include an informal fashion show, auction items, appetizers and a raffle. Proceeds will go toward sending a 5-year-old boy from Carmel with an inoperable brain tumor on his dream trip to San Diego.

GOP chili supper – Carmel Mayor Jim Brainard will be the featured speaker at this year’s Carmel Clay Republican Club Chili Supper.

The event will be held at 6:30 pm. March 1 at the Monon Community Center. Admission is $5 for the public but free for members of the Carmel Clay GOP club. The supper is a pitch in, with people whose last names begin with the letters A to M bringing a salad to share and those N to Z bringing a dessert.

The club provides chili, topping, and drinks.

Guests can RSVP at claygop.org or by calling 408-0200.

Leap Day activities – Carmel Clay Parks & Recreation is inviting families to the Monon Community Center on Leap Day, Feb. 29, for a morning of free family activities, geared toward children ages 6 months to 5 years. The event begins with a kids concert from 10 to 11 a.m featuring the Tides Duo, followed by Toddler Open Play from 11 a.m. to noon. An open swim will take place from noon to 1 p.m. Learn more by contacting Traci Broman at 317-5735243 or tbroman@carmelclayparks.com.

Council considers Midtown bonds

By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com After approving more than $200 million in bonds for new infrastructure for the city, the Carmel City Council redevelopment is now considering $20 million in new bonds to help build two parking garages for the soon-to-be redeveloped Midtown area.

The garages are planned to have 580 and 308 spaces to support five new mixed-use buildings along the east side of the Monon Trail. Some of the bond money would also help pay for a public plaza planned for outside of the headquarters for Allied Solutions. Plans also include restaurant/commercial buildings in the plaza. The project has a 2019 estimated completion date.

The $100-million-plus Midtown development is being led by Carmel-based Old Town Development and has undergone several changes since its announcement more than a year ago.

In May 2015, Merchants Bank of Indiana held a press conference to announce a $25 million project to build its headquarters on the corner of Fourth Street and Monon Avenue.

But looking at a map handed out at the Feb. 15 council meeting, that building was not there. Allied Solution’s headquarters, announced in January, is now shown in that location. When asked where the Merchants Bank headquarters will be, city officials said it will be west of the Monon and will likely necessitate a third parking garage that will likely need another bond from the city.

Another change affects properties along

Range Line Road and First Avenue SW. More than a year ago, officials announced several buildings would be demolished to make way for a parking garage to support new development. It appears those plans are now on hold.”

On Feb. 15, the council introduced two proposals: one to create a tax increment finance district and another for the parking garage bonds themselves.

The bonds would be backed up using a special benefits tax as protection. The Carmel Redevelopment Commission is projecting a $69 million increase in assessed value by 2020 that will allow TIF funds to be available.

Girls swim team makes history

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Minutes after jumping into the pool to celebrate with her Carmel High School teammates and coaches, Claire achievement Adams began helping out a friend by picking up empty water bottles and trash in the bleachers.

Her actions were appropriate because she cleaned up in the state swimming finals Feb. 13 at the IU Natatorium at IUPUI. Foremost, she Adams helped propel her team to a history-making 30th state title in a row. The Carmel girls swim team now has the longest streak in any sport, breaking a tie with Punahou High School (Honolulu, Hawaii), which won 29 boys swimming state crowns (1958-86).

Adams won the 100-yard backstroke, 100 freestyle and was on two winning relay teams, concluding with a perfect 16-0 record in state final events, breaking the old record of Carmel’s Emily Ayers (14 state titles from 1992-95). For good measure, she won the Indiana High School Athletic Association Mental Attitude Award. If this was a movie, this Hollywood ending might be too much.

“It’s been an incredible four years,” said Adams, who will swim for the University of Texas next season. “I’m so blessed and grateful for everything my teammates and coaches have done for me. I couldn’t be more excited

to end it like this.”

Carmel senior Veronica Burchill, who will swim for Georgia next season, is in second place with 15 state titles, winning the 100 butterfly in a state record time of 51.79 seconds.

She was on three winning relay teams. Her sister, Sammie, a junior, won the 200 individual medley.

“I couldn’t ask for anything better. I got to cap off my senior year with my sister on my relay,” Burchill said.

Junior Emma Nordin captured the 200 and 500 freestyle as the Greyhounds won nine of 12 events to rack up 438 points, easily outdistancing second-place Hamilton Southeastern (193.5 points).

“It’s been a tremendous day for us, but it’s been a tremendous 30 years for the program and all the girls that allowed this day to be possible,” Carmel Coach Chris Plumb said.

CHS talent show set for Feb. 26

By Joseph Knoop • news@currentincarmel.com Carmel High School students with a passion for the stage have a chance to earn both recognition and a cash prize in the education CHS Talent Show.

Organized by the “Behind the Scenes Club,” a parent volunteer group, the show will award prizes in the form of two “Judge’s Choice” winners of $100 each and three “audience favorite” winners of $50 each.

Admission is $5 per person, and audience members are allowed to use their ticket as one “vote.” Additional raffle-style tickets can be purchased for $1 each and used to increase audience votes with no purchase limit. Twenty acts will be judged on factors such as originality.

Proceeds from the show go toward raising scholarship funds awarded to students who intend to pursue a college degree in the performing arts.

The Behind the Scenes Club primarily assists students who are too busy between

academics and extracurricular arts activities by providing financial and volunteer support throughout the year. Aside from scholarship awards, the club also frequently provides meals for students and helps man concession booths during performances.

BTSC Vice President Michelle Milazzo says the club stepped in to fill the gap of artsbased scholarships.

“There really aren’t that many scholarships for theater arts kids,” Milazzo said. “Some are for athletes and kids with really high GPAs, but as far as theater education scholarships, there’s just not many out there.”

German author reads at CHS

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Carmel High School’s German language students recently received a rare treat.

Jutta Richter, a celeducation ebrated German children’s author, read her book in German to German III, IV and V students at the school Feb. 9. Richter was in the midst of a 17day tour, which was sponsored by the Goethe Institut, a German nonprofit.

“I hope they will find it inspiring,” Richter said.

Richter was reading her book, with a translated title, “I’m Just the Dog Around Here.”

CHS German teacher Angelika Becker said she learned from a colleague at Antietam High School in Reading, Pa., about Richter.

“She and I taught one of Frau Richter’s books together,” Becker said. “She taught it in Pennsylvania, and I taught it to our students a couple of years ago. We got together and made a lesson plan for it. We presented that at our national conference. We wrote a lesson plan for another book that Frau Richter wrote. So there are now three or four lesson plans that are designed for American learners of German based on this authentic German literature.”

Students of Becker’s colleague in Reading, Pa., watched the presentation through a

video. Junior Allyson LaFon, who takes German IV, said it was beneficial.

“I want to be a writer when I grow up,” LaFon said. “So a lot of her story resonated with me to continue writing.”

Richter was originally supposed to visit in November but had to cancel because of an illness.

“This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity,” Becker said.

And a last chance, Richter said. After this tour, she said doesn’t plan to make any more trips to the U.S. to visit classrooms.

Becker, who was born in Germany, moved to the U.S. in 1992.

Dance Marathon honors brother

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com There are typically few dry eyes during Carmel High School’s Dance Marathon as many in the student body bond fundraiser together to help kids in need.

This year’s version, set to begin at 4 p.m.

Feb. 27, will be especially emotional for Samantha and Matthew Wolfe, who as CHS cabinet members have been active in the planning of the Dance Marathon and fundraisers leading up to it. Their older brother, Nicholas, an Indiana University sophomore who died from injuries suffered in an accident in September, was active in both Carmel and Indiana University Dance Marathons. Nicholas, who wanted to be a doctor, was the IUDM representative for his fraternity, Phi Delta Epsilon, a co-ed medical fraternity. The dance marathons benefit Riley Hospital for Children.

“Dance Marathon meant a lot to us before, but after everything that happened, it took on a new meaning,” Samantha said. “It was not just helping kids, but it was trying to carry on his legacy.”

Samantha, a senior, and Matthew, a sophomore, are selling $15 T-shirts, which pay tribute to their brother to help raise money for Dance Marathon.

“It’s been amazing to see how much the community cares and has come together to support us,” Samantha said.

CHS Dance Marathon sponsor Sarah Wolff has watched as Samantha and Matthew have turned their energies toward Dance Marathon in recent months.

Wolff said she has been impressed “to see their journey through extreme tragedy and incredible grief to turn it around and try to make a testimonial to his life. To pay it forward and to do it in his memory, I think that’s something as a teenager that is hard to do. It

The Humane Society for Hamilton Co. is hosting a cooking competition between two chefs as a way to raise fundraiser money for the shelter.

The event is on Feb. 23 at The Gathering Bistro & Pub, 11705 Fox Road in Geist. A reception begins at 6 p.m. with the dinner starting at 7 p.m.

Attendees can pay $75 to enjoy two, threecourse meals – appetizers, entrees and desserts – plus one well-drink ticket. There will also be a complimentary wine on the table

would be easy to give it up. They’ve used it to drive harder for the memory of their brother and the things that he loved. I’m sure it’s going to be emotional for them, because they have put so much emotion into paying homage to their brother.”

Like his late brother, Matthew plays football. Samantha was a trainer for the football team and a diver on the swim team.

Matthew said after his brother’s death, it was the cabinet and the football team that provided support.

“They were what got me through the hard times,” Matthew said. “I was spending a lot of time with the team and a lot of my good friends were there. Kids my age knew Nicholas from coming to my games and the older teammates knew him, so I had two inputs on helping me get over the situation.”

Samantha said fellow trainers and football coach John Hebert helped her as well.

Samantha and Matthew have kept increasing their fundraising goal. Samantha started with a goal of $1,000. As of Feb. 19, they had raised $3,150 with a goal of $3,500.

What’s next: The council approved the changes but amended the agreement to include a commitment from Brenwick to contribute $400 from each unit to the homeowners association that can be used to add amenities.

What happened: The council approved a height minimum of two stories for new buildings along Range Line Road and Carmel Drive.

What’s next: The rule change goes into effect.

What’s next: The bonds have been passed, and they will be repaid solely from revenues derived from user fee charges within the district.

What’s next: Changes were unanimously approved.

What happened: The council approved a $6.7 million bond for stormwater improvements to supplement a previous $34.5 million bond.

What it means: In 2014, the council voted to remove this standard, pointing out some double-decker buildings such as KFC, CVS Pharmacy and Turkey Hill convenience store all were required to build second stories that were not needed. In March 2015, the council said it was happy with removing the height minimums and eliminated any sunset provision for the measure. Removing the height minimums was also supported by the Carmel Chamber of Commerce at the time. Now, Carmel Mayor Jim Brainard is advocating for two- or threestory buildings in that area because of property tax revenues and a consistent aesthetic.

What happened: The Carmel City Council approved an amendment to the salaries of the Carmel Clerk Treasurer’s Office.

What it means: Brenwick Development asked to be able to add 52 townhomes in the uptown commercial area. Some units would be located on the second floor of the business area because retail/ office tenants have been difficult to attract. In other parts, residential areas will now be allowed to have commercial uses. Some neighbors expressed concerns about density and placement of gas stations or fast-food restaurants with drive-thru lanes.

What it means: Clerk-Treasurer Christine Pauley, who is in her first term, has asked the council to approve changes to the approved salaries for her office. The end result is salary increases for her newly hired employees, but the additional costs would come out of the approved consultants budget. She said more work will be done inhouse instead of relying on consultants. One of her deputies will make up to $4,200 every two weeks, more than the clerk-treasurer herself.

What it means: The previous council established a stormwater district, and the new utility now collects fees for drainage improvements. The previous council didn’t have plans to borrow for any stormwater projects. The newly elected council decided to borrow money to begin on many stormwater projects at once and use the fees to repay the bonds.

Salon owner honors late father

Transit day at the statehouse

By Renee Larr • news@currentincarmel.com Carmel resident and business owner Jennifer DeLong wanted to help give back to the military after she lost her father, Fred Wilson, a former giving back lieutenant commander in the Navy, to cancer two years ago.

"My dad … was an ophthalmologist at IU Med Center.

He would go to the VA hospital in Indianapolis every week to take care of patients and teach residents there. He had such a love for the residents and the veterans,” DeLong said. “When he got cancer that was the one thing that kept him going and gave him a sense of purpose, even when he was sick. Even as he was battling cancer, he would continue to go to the VA even though he was retired, to see his patients.”

Unfortunately, as her father's cancer progressed, he told his daughter he wouldn't be able to visit the hospital anymore. DeLong wanted to help keep her father's legacy of giving back to veterans alive. She began to think of ways she could help.

DeLong decided to hold a donation drive at her salon, The Parlour Hair Artistry in Carmel, to benefit homeless veterans. Originally planned to run through the month of December, the drive was such a success that she decided to make it an ongoing effort.

"My whole purpose in doing this is to continue on my dad's love and dedication for the veterans and his residents,” DeLong said. “I just decided this year was the

year to do that.”

She said she wasn't sure exactly where to donate the items but didn't have to look far to find someone who could help. Becky Summers is the nail technician at DeLong's salon. Her stepfather, Steve Milbourn, is Commander at the Greenwood VFW Post 5864, and he collected the December donations to distribute.

HOW TO HELP : Anyone can donate items such as clothing, blankets, books, crossword puzzles and more by dropping them off at The Parlour Hair Artistry, 301 E. Carmel Dr., Suite F400.

Transit supporters converged at the Statehouse Feb. 11 to share stories of how Indiana’s transit resources do not meet current demand or take advantage of the economic opportunities transit can offer. Hamilton Co. Commissioner Christine Altman helped craft legislation that created the Central Indiana Regional Transit Authority in 2004. She served as CIRTA’s first board president and played a critical role in recruiting suburban counties to the organization. She was president until 2014, and continues to serve on the board.

Grandmaster Lee’s instructors teach physical, mental strength

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Rocco Rossano is a huge proponent of Grandmaster Lee’s Tae Kwon Do’s teaching methods.

“Even though it’s a martial arts studio, they treat it as a school,” said Rossano, whose son has atcover story tended the school for nearly three years.

“They teach morals and values. It’s just as close as Carmel can get to being in South Korea. We have a South Korean culture that reaches out to the community and does such wonderful things.”

Antonio Rossano, a Carmel High School freshman, is a black belt and is in the junior instructors program and on the demonstration team.

Grandmaster Lee’s Tae Kwon Do has schools in Carmel, 13642 N. Meridian St., and Fishers, 9824 North by North Blvd.

The Fishers school was opened first, followed a few months later by the Carmel school. Both schools have been open for about five years.

Tae Kwon Do, the art of kicking, punching and blocking, originated in South Korea. The schools also emphasize self-defense.

The schools are owned by two South Korean couples: Wonhee Lee, 52, wife Eunjung Shin, 42, and Hojin Jung, 36, and wife Sunghyun Choi, 34. Lee and Shin, who live in Fishers, are seventh-degree belts. Jung has a sixth-degree and Choi a fourthdegree belt. Jung and Choi, who moved to the U.S. in 2008, live in Westfield. The highest degree belt is ninth.

Lee, 52, moved to the U.S. in 1990, opening a school in New Jersey. He has been training in Tae Kwon Do for 40 years. Shin met Lee when she moved to New Jersey in 2000. They still own a school in Palisades Park, N.J. “He was one of the famous masters there,” said Shin, whose 7-year-old son already has a black belt. “I used to be a national champion in Tae Kwon Do sparring in Korea, so I came here.”

Shin said the owners and instructors all embrace the same philosophy.

“We like to train the body and mind together,” Shin said. “We like to teach self-control, and they learn confidence. We teach them good listening skills for the kids and to respect each

other. If you have a healthy mind and body, you’re going to be happy to do everything. We want to teach positive thinking.”

Choi said she and her husband were instructors in Korea and wanted to come to a bigger country to teach.

“We wanted to teach traditional Korean martial arts to American kids,” Choi said.

Choi said their mutual friends encouraged Lee and Shin to move to the Indianapolis area to start a school.

Lee said their biggest group of students are in the 8-to-13 age range. The Little Tigers group is for ages 4 to 6.

Rossano said he doesn’t believe they teach all these values in other sports.

“I’ve played other sports, and the ultimate goal is to win,”

Rossano said. “That’s it.”

Rossano pointed out martial arts are a lifetime sport as well.

“They have someone 80 years old who is a fourth-degree black belt,” Rossano said.

Shin said many students who started with the program five years ago as white belts (beginners) are now junior instructors.

One of the school’s students, Princeton Rush, from Fishers High School, recently won a national title at the U.S. Open.

“He’s been training a long time, and it’s good for other students to see that,” Shin said.

Grandmaster Lee’s Student Creed

“I must develop myself in a positive manner and avoid anything that could reduce my mental growth or physical health. I must develop self-discipline in order to bring out the best in myself and others. I must use what I learn in class constructively and defensively to help myself and mankind and never be abusive or offensive.”

It’s your dough they’re using Outgoing Lt. Gov. Sue Ellspermann said recently the Indiana Office of Community and Rural Affairs and the Indiana Office of Tourism Development have launched the latest round of the Place Based Investment Fund. It gives cities and towns throughout Indiana the opportunity to apply for grants to support community and economic development projects. We’re all about making life better in every corner of this state, but we also believe it is important that everyone understand grant money actually is taxpayer money, and therefore it’s yours.

••• Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.) told the Washington Examiner earlier this month the Select Committee on Benghazi, which he chairs, is pressing on with its controversial investigation. Gowdy said he believes it could result in findings being up for public consumption before likely Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton (N.Y.) faces voters on Election Day. This squares nicely with the public’s right to know.

••• Here’s a debate we’d really like to see: Clinton vs. Chris Christie (R-N.J.). With his prosecutorial expertise, we have to believe the former secretary of state would be reeling just minutes into it.

Object lesson Commentary by Terry Anker These last few of my birthdays have found my children getting into a groove in the gift giving department. When they were young, a finger painted piece of construction paper would be delivered (and received) with unbounded pride and satisfaction. They were certain and secure in the knowledge that I’d love it – and, they were right. I did.

My expectations and their desire to give came into perfect alignment. As we grew older, their thoughts and my desires drifted a bit. Birthdays, other than their own, brought a sense of foreboding, a concern that they’d not be able to deliver something that I might like or enjoy. And, I, at times, took their insecurity as indicating a waning interest in us as their parents. Maybe, I even felt a little sorry for myself.

Then in recent years, our boys – now maturing nicely into fine young Americans – have brought an indication of anticipation and excitement into the exchange. They

have, as they once did, extoled me with their confidence of how much I will love their gift. Rightly deciding that a gift doesn’t have to come from a department store, they have taken to giving me gifts of their time.

They’ve promised, and followed through, on finding activities that we could enjoy together and committing themselves to it.

And like them, I’ve committed just the same.

Isn’t the notion of making a gift to someone about showing them that we honor them, and what they seek, as much as we find our own joy in the giving? It is often said that it is impossible to “buy” for we men of a certain age. Anything we want, we already have. True. But perhaps, we’ve missed the point. Is it possible that a gift is a commitment and not an object?

Q U O T E O F T HE WEEK Remember, happiness doesn’t depend on who you are or what you have; it depends solely on what you think.

– Dale Carnegie

It has begun. Today we pulled the trigger on our kitchen remodel, and for your reading pleasure, I promise humor to keep you updated on the inevitable bad choices, measurement snafus and stress-induced tirades that can only come from feeding a family of six with nothing but a microwave and a can opener.

The redo is a long time in the making. Our house has not been updated in 20 years, and the kitchen in particular is showing signs of major wear and tear.

Drawer faces are falling off, cabinets aren’t closing, and the all-white appliances aren’t so white anymore. The only part that has stood the test of time are the countertops, which despite my numerous attempts to stain, burn and permanently damage them, remain obnoxiously stuck in their perfect 1990s laminate glory.

Interestingly, it was a commode catastrophe that finally got us ready to begin this massive undertaking: tree roots broke into the main sewer line, made a comfy little home for themselves, and then caused a massive blockage that sent fecal-contaminated water down our back hall, into a bedroom, and through the vents to the finished basement below. It was so not awesome, but the silver lining is we were able to make a claim on our homeowner’s insurance and gain approval for new flooring in the adjacent kitchen. In the grand tradition of “If You Give a Mouse a Cookie,” one home improvement led to another, and here we are.

Our goal is to have everything complete

by May, just in time for our fabulouslysouthern Kentucky Derby party. Personally, I don’t understand why it should take more than a week to install cabinets, place a countertop, lay the floor and slide in a new fridge. Seriously, how hard is that? But my husband Doo assures me we’ll be kitchenless for at least three, probably more and that at least one delay will occur.

So we’ll see. Hopefully our handy man and various vendors come through, and nothing goes haywire, but knowing my luck, I’ll have plenty to write about. You’re welcome in advance. Peace out.

Kids learn the art of canoeing during a summer at Kikthawenund Day Camp.

Boy Scouts to offer camps to non-members

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Boy Scouts of America offers several different summer camps, including community camps.

The community camps at Camp Belzer in GEIST Lawrence Township in Indianapolis start July 5-8 and conclude July 25-29, open to nonCub Scouts from ages 6-11, both boys and girls.

“It’s completely open to those in the community,” said Cara Wagner, marketing and public relations executive with Boy Scouts of America. “There are many of the same activities that Cub Scout Day Camp offers. This is something new we’ve been offering the last couple of years. It’s something we thought would be a good fit for the Lawrence community. It’s been received well, but we’re still pushing to make sure people know about it. We think a lot of people found out about it too late.”

The week runs from 8:15 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Thursday and 12:30 to 5:30 p.m. Friday. It concludes with fam-

ily dinner and campfire program. There is an extended day option for those that need to stay until 5:30 Monday through Thursday.

The Cub Scouts’ Day Camp is held at Camp Belzer, which runs June 13-17 from July 25-29, six consecutive weeks of camps.

Wagner said activities include archery, nature trails, rafting, swimming, making campfires, BB guns and gun safety.

“The day camps are really popular,” she said.

There are 11 different weeks of Adventure Camp at Kikthawenund Day Camp in Frankton. They are four-day, three-night sessions starting with the week of June 12-15 and ending the week of July 20-23. The Adventure Camp theme is “The Great Superhero Extravaganza.” Scouts are encouraged to bring superhero costumes. Additional activities include BB guns, air rifles and swimming.

Weblos, Bear and Wolf Scouts also focus on rank advancement adventures. Wolf and Bear Scouts must have completed first grade but not completed third grade or be age 8 or 9.

Weblos must have completed third grade but not fifth grade or

age 10 but not 11 1/2.

For Boy Scouts, the two biggest properties are Camp Krietenstein, in Center Point, and Ransburg Scout Reservation in Bloomington.

Among the activities are STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) activities, paddle boarding, sailing, scuba diving, horseback riding, fishing and climbing.

The Krietenstein camps start June 12-18 and end July 17-23.

There is no camp July 3-9. The Ransburg camps start June 5-11 and end July 31-Aug. 6.

“Camp Krietenstein has new aquatic activities,” Wagner said.

Junior civic back for summer

By Zach Dunkin • editorial@youarecurrent.com From the 3-year-old who wants to hear fascinating stories and enjoy snacks with other 3- and 4-year-olds to the CARMEL 6-year-old who wants to memorize a few lines and play a role in a short performance to the teenager who wants to hone his and her skills for a possible career in dance, song and theater, Junior Civic’s summer camps offer youngsters the opportunity to learn a few things about this thing called “show biz.”

“These camps are for anyone and everyone,” said Holly Stults Haas, Civic’s education program director.

“We get kids who are novStults Haas ices – maybe they’ve done a school or church play, but nothing formal.

We get kids who are new to this and aren’t overwhelmed. And we have seen kids who hone their skills in classes every summer.

Somehow you can put them all together and it works. It’s the magic of theater.”

The June and July, camps are divided into three age groups: • There’s the Fairy Tale Players camp for 3- and 4-year-olds. In the 1 1/2 hour, fourday morning classes, the youths bring a snack for story time and spend time indoors and out using their imagination

to bring stories to life.

• In the Storybook Players for 5- and 6-year-olds, the children are exposed to music, art and theatrical activities prepared just for them. During the four-day, 2 1/2-hour classes campers create props and costumes that will help them create their very own adventures for a “show” in the last class.

• The all-day, weeklong Junior Civic Musical Theatre class is the most advanced. Sixty campers start and end the day together, but in between they are separated into their specific age groups of 20 by ages 7-9, 10-11 and 12-14. They spend equal time, singing, dancing and acting. At the end of the week, the entire group performs on the Tarkington stage for family and friends.

“They learn that they really can do great things without being the Broadway star,” Stults Haas said. “We talk about the fact that somebody has to design the lights, design the costumes and sew the costumes and more.

Theater is more than about acting. You learn certain life skills.”

IF YOU GO Registration begins March 1, and Stults Haas says the camps fill quickly. For more on specific times, dates and costs, call 853-6317, or visit www.civictheatre.org.

Myart to offer day camps

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com In addition to continuing classes throughout the summer, the four Myart locations – Carmel, NoblesNOBLESVILLE ville, Fishers and Zionsville – will be offering a variety of four, day-themed art camps as well as a one day Friday camps.

Camps begin June 6 and are for ages 5 and up. One new option is additional camps for ages 11 and up. Four day camps are 9:30 a.m. to noon and Friday camps are 9 a.m. to noon.

“In camp we have usually five to six projects for the week,” Owner Sylvia Runningen said. “Each day we guide them through a drawing of the project and show them how to use the medium that the project is done in.”

Themes include safari animals, farm animals, fantasy camps, sea camps, around the world, cartoon and many others. Mediums vary between colored pencil, marker, chalk pastel, acrylic painting, black and white, collaging and texturing.

For the one day camps, Runningen said that typically two projects are completed. The camps for the older children will limit projects to three or four for the week, as these camps require more focus and detail.

“We get repeated campers that come back every year, kids in our classes that sign up for camps through the summer, too, and every year we get new campers,” Runningen said.

Sylvia Runningen, left, and Barb Hegeman will be offering summer classes and camps through Myart. (Submitted photo)

“Many times on the last day of camp, kids will sign up for another week because they had so much fun.

Explore art, clay

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com SullivanMunce Cultural Center offers some summer artistic-camp options for ages 7-17. SulZIONSVILLE livanMunce, 225 W. Hawthorne St., Zionsville, offers five different kinds of camps.

“The instructors are usually college graduates or college-aged men and women who are studying art education,” SullivanMunce executive director Cynthia Young said.

Soyong Partington, who teaches regularly at SullivanMunce, is also one of the summer instructions.

“Last year the combo camps were really popular,” said Young, of the camps for ages 7-11.

The art/science combo camps are set from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. July 11-15, July 1822 and July 25-29. The cost is $200 for SullivanMunce members and $235 non-members.

“It’s science as it relates to art,” Young said. “They do different kind of science projects. I know they worked with magnetic paint last year. They also made crystals.

They made their own solar system and things like that.”

The art/clay combo features drawing, painting and clay from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. June 6-10 and June 20-24. Half the day is focused on design and drawing and the second half in the clay studio with hand building and working on the pottery wheel.

Being a newbie is no excuse when it comes to learning how to rock it out at the School of Rock’s summer camps.

“Some of our most popular camps are the beginner camps,” stated Elyse Causey, general manager for School of Rock Fishers. “A lot of students who come in at the beginning of the week have Causey never even touched an instrument before, and at the end of the week they’re literally putting on a live performance for their parents and other fans; it’s truly amazing.”

Many of the music camps are called bootcamps, and are five days long, from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. each day, all ending in a live performance at the end of the week.

“We’re also offering a special 10 percent discount for anyone who signs up through our ad (or this article) in Current; the code is CURRENT10 and just needs to be applied at checkout.”

Camps start June 13, and run weekly until July 29. For more, call 848-7625.

CCPR adds ‘Where It’s At’ camp

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Carmel Clay Parks and Recreation Dept. has a new addition to its summer-camp series list.

Where It’s At is an CARMEL all-day camp from 7 a.m. to 6 p.m., for ages 5-11, from May 31 to July 29. Lindsay Labas, CCPR marketing director, said campers can sign up for the entire month, the entire season or by week.

“The focus of Where It’s At is more on kids being kids and not being as structured as far as enrichment activities or sit-down learning they do in some of the camps,” Labas said.

“It’s really given them a chance to get out there and be themselves and have some fun.

They get to become campers of the day if they are nominated for that by the group. They would get a certificate if they are voted by their peers. They can show their uniqueness, creativity and try to stand out amongst the group.”

Labas said each week the camp has different themes. In the Where It’s At camp, campers will explore oceanic life, life on the planet, detective and mystery during I Spy week and crafts.

“One week it’s all about fun in the sun,”

Youth and Teen, Ages 7-17 Art, Science, Clay and More!

Art improves academic performance and sparks creativity and innovation!

Beagle on a doorstep!

Commentary by Dick Wolfsie Twenty-five years ago this week, I found a beagle puppy on my doorstep as I was leaving for work. Here are my humor memories of that morning, partly excerpted from my book, “Mornings with Barney.”

On my doorstep, shivering in the freezing weather, was a tiny beagle pup. I couldn’t leave him out there, but I was on my way to WISH-TV where I had just begun as a feature reporter on the early morning news.

My wife and son were still asleep upstairs.

I placed the dog on the rug in the living room, figuring it was safe to leave him there for a few hours. When I returned home, my wife would be awake and we could decide what to do next.

I’m an idiot.

When I walked in the house, the dog was on the couch. The pillows were shredded. The curtains were yanked off their rods and one designer high-heel shoe, minus the heel, sat in the middle of the floor. The kitchen trashcan was knocked over, with the contents distributed everywhere. After an extensive inventory, we knew a lot had been ingested, too.

Incredibly, he had not had an accident in the house. What a good dog!

My teary-eyed son descended the stairs with a beheaded teddy bear, another casualty of the dog’s tirade. “Daddy, can we NOT keep him?”

The second day, I locked the beagle in an empty downstairs bedroom while I was on location for a television shoot. This dog didn’t have a lot of experience being confined. He howled until I got home. Ultimately, he howled for the remainder of that decade and beyond.

My wife tried to be understanding. “Look, this is real simple, Dick. Find the dog a loving home or a minimum security facility. Or, keep him with you.”

I took Barney to work with me every day for 12 years. It didn’t change his behavior but it changed my … and the lives of everyone else he touched.

DIVORCE – WHAT TO EXPECT: Options to Resolve Your Case Prior to Trial In family law, a majority of cases settle outside of the courtroom. There are many reasons to attempt to reach a settlement, including uncertainty as to the judge’s decision, anxiety about testifying in court, the potential to increase animosity between the parties, and the attorney’s fees associated with attending a hearing. It is common for a party to never step foot inside of a courtroom because the parties reach an Agreement on all terms without the requiring the court’s intervention. There are two primary methods to reach an out-of-court agreement: informal negotiations and mediation. Informal negotiations involve communication between the parties and/or their counsel concerning the terms of a final agreement. This process involves communication as to the terms of a final agreement without the assistance of a third party (a mediator or judge). In some instances, the parties may be able to reach an agreement on the general terms of an agreement and engage counsel to assist with the finalization of those terms to ensure approval by the court. In other cases, counsel for the parties will exchange proposals and draft agreements in an attempt to reach a resolution.

In the event parties are unable to reach an Agreement through informal negotiations, mediation is a common next step. Mediation may be agreed upon by the parties or ordered by the court. At mediation, the parties are typically placed in separate rooms with their counsel and the Mediator serves as the neutral

third party who exchanges proposals between the parties in intensive and focused settlement negotiations. The Mediator’s role is to assist the parties in their attempt to reach common ground by addressing certain considerations as to an anticipated reasonable outcome in court as well as other realistic and pragmatic concerns with any proposed settlement. There are instances where parties do not reach an agreement during mediation. In that case, a final hearing is the next step as the mediator does not have the authority to order the parties to comply with certain terms or reach a final agreement.

A recent trend in family law is for parties to engage in a collaborative divorce process. In such instances, parties are focused on reaching a collaborative agreement and hire respective counsel trained to do so. The process is similar in many respects to informal negotiations and mediation, with the ultimate goal of reaching an agreeable settlement. One different aspect of the collaborative law process is that in the event parties are unable to reach a settlement, they must hire new counsel and begin the process anew.

At Hollingsworth & Zivitz, P.C., our team has the experience, the understanding, and the compassion to assist with your family law needs. If you have questions or concerns regarding divorce, custody, support, or any other family law concerns contact our firm at 317.DIVORCE or visit our website at www.hzlegal.com.

coffees across hamilton county

Where to warm up with a cup of joe

Dispatches Commentary by Jason Conerly

Geist: Global village coffee

Carmel: eggshell bistro

The best brews from Africa

A little taste of Europe, in the middle of Carmel

I was always told that the best coffee comes from Africa.

Well, I was always told that by my friend Daniel, who spent a good portion of his life living in Zambia. If Daniel had coffee from Global Village Coffee in Geist, he would probably be impressed.

Serving Ethiopian coffee, Global Village Coffee truly stands out against other places that serve coffee.

The coffee is earthy and sweet. Not sweet in a sense of use of artificial sweeteners, but a mild fruit-flavored sweetness.

The lattes are well balanced as well and it is easy to taste the natural flavor of the coffee without being overwhelmed by anything else that is added to the latte. Overall, the coffee is good and contains a lot of flavor.

Maybe my friend was onto something when he told me the best coffee comes from Africa. It was good to try Ethiopia first.

I felt like I was in Europe.

The Eggshell Bistro seemed like it would fit right in, in France or Italy, which is good, considering the culturally different ways the coffee is brewed to achieve different tastes. This includes the Japanese Siphon technique of brewing coffee.

The coffee that the Eggshell Bistro serves is unique. The “Three Africans” blend is delicious. Served black, it is by far a very smooth cup of black coffee.

It is strong, yet the taste is smooth and there is no overpowering bitterness to it as one might find with an “Americano.” One of its best qualities is that there is virtually no aftertaste after drinking the cup of coffee.

The lattes also offered by the Eggshell Bistro are nice as well. It has more of a creamy texture and highlights the natural taste of the coffee.

Eggshell Bistro is located in Carmel City Center.

Long lines, but coffee worth waiting!

Coffee better than the conventional brews

Who gets up very early on a Saturday just to wait in line with lots of people just to get coffee? Apparently, me.

It was the grand opening of Sure Shot Coffee at Vardagen in downtown Fishers and the wait for coffee was worth it. The coffee itself tastes fresh and has an earthy taste. The lattes are well balanced and does not taste too sweet nor does it taste bitter.

The cold-brewed coffee is worth tasting. I would recommend this for fans of iced-black coffee. It is served extremely cold, and without ice.

Another interesting menu item is “The Undertow.” It gives a hot and cold sensation once one drinks it. It is served as two espresso shots and packs a punch. There is a seating area on the second floor to relax as well.

Would I wait in line with all those people for coffee again?

Definitely.

“Friends don’t let friends drink…” Well, you know how the rest goes. That’s the first thing that I see walking into Noble Coffee and Tea Company in downtown Noblesville, a sign that reads how friends shouldn’t let friends buy over-priced, popularbrand coffee. The menu here is fairly simple to understand and seating is in a separate room apart from where coffee is ordered. If you are new to the coffee shop, the baristas are helpful in making a decision on a cup to drink. After having my first cup, I quickly understood why the sticker was on their front door. Their coffee had an extremely smooth and rich flavor to it.

The brew did not taste like a dark roast or light roast, but something that had characteristics of both. If flavors are added, the flavors are not overbearing, and do not mask the taste of the coffee. Instead, the flavors blend together with the coffee to make a balance.

Day to perform in Carmel

Nickel Plate Arts Campus 107 S. 8th Street Noblesville, IN 317.452.3690

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Since his fourth studio album was released in April 2015, Howie Day has been on a vigorous mission to support it. music “There have been some pretty intense periods of ‘go-go-go!’ since ‘Lanterns’ was released mid-last year, but I suppose that’s a good sign,” Day said.

“I’m still enjoying being on stage, and people keep showing up.”

Day will perform at The Warehouse, 254 First Ave. SW, Carmel, at 8 p.m. Feb. 27. Shane Piasecki will also perform.

“I’m in this phase right now where I’m really digging the solo thing, pulling everything back — especially the new songs from ‘Lanterns,’ to a stripped-down acoustic vibe,” said Day, whose voice is described as a warm tenor. “I think it’s in this space that you can really feel what a song is made of.”

“Lanterns” was funded by fans and Day himself.

“It completely freed me up creatively, which was great,” Day said. “The fans’ feedback along the way was very encouraging. I’m really happy with how ‘Lanterns’ came to be, and I would totally look at something similar again in the future.”

Day, 35, said he is already thinking about the next music project.

“I’m at this point where I’m completely in the throes of this album cycle and passionate about making people aware of it,” Day said.

“As always, I’m thinking about the next project, but only in the sense of dreaming about it — there are no plans yet, and that’s what’s exciting. Endless possibilities.”

Day’s second album, “Stop All the World Now,” was certified gold in early 2005 and produced hits “She Says” and “Collide.”

“Where’s Amy?” … I attended Civic Theatre’s opening night production of “Doubt: A Parable.” I was left wondering what really happened at the St. Nicholas Catholic Church and School. It was interesting to hear what the audience thought, because the subject matter leaves everyone with an unsettling moral guessing game. The talented cast of four was amazing and I enjoyed meeting them at the cast party. I applaud Civic for taking theatre to the next level of excellence. Everything from the acting, costumes, set, lighting and sound were top notch, which made the play shine. I can’t stop thinking about it. If you missed this production be sure to get your tickets to the family-friendly “Cat in the Hat” coming Feb. 23 to March 3. "Where’s Amy?” will look forward to seeing you there! Why?

Activities promote better living

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com A team of seven residents and five staff members at The Barrington of seniors Carmel are working together to create a healthy lifestyle for the senior residents in conjunction with Masterpiece Living, a Colorado-based organization. Living It! is a program designed to last through the month of February.

“We operate on the principal of you will age more successfully if you participate in four categories (of Masterpiece Living): social, intellectual, physical and spiritual,” said Sam Preissler, a resident of The Barrington who is involved with Masterpiece Living. “We continually have a group meeting that develops activities under the four categories.”

Preissler, along with Allison Krebsbach, fitness specialist with The Barrington of Carmel, with the rest of the team, came up with a calendar to help get The Barrington community more active.

“Masterpiece Living is a unique concept only at The Barrington,” Krebsbach said.

“The premise for the challenge is to try four new activities a week in each of the four categories.”

The first week of February was focused on the physical category, and there were sports tournaments in shuffle board, bocce ball and pickle ball. Bocce ball was able to be completed while sitting down, so less able residents could participate.

For the social week, there were Super Bowl and Mardi Gras parties for residents to take part in, as well as men and women’s lunches.

“This is built upon extensive research by the Masterpiece Living organization that figures that people who are mature and those living in a community like we have need to be engaged and participate if they want to have a successful living experience,” Preissler said.

“People living alone in homes or apartments don’t have these activities.”

Dispatch Burn relief – If you burn yourself in the kitchen, mix just enough baking soda with honey to make a spreadable paste and apply to the burn. The baking soda will help cool the wound, while the honey’s antibacterial properties will stave off infection and speed up healing. The sooner you apply it to the burn, the better chance you have of preventing it from blistering.

Heidi Pops continues expansion

By Sadie Hunter • sadie@youarecurrent.com Heidi Greene quit her day job to follow her dream, opening Heidi Pops gourmet popcorn stores across central Indiana.

In August 2014, Greene and her husband, Russ, opened food their very first Heidi Pops store in Plainfield before opening the Noblesville store in July 2015. In between, they opened fully operational kiosk locations in Greenfield and Ft. Wayne, and now, they’ve just opened their newest store in Clay Terrace.

“This is it. This is the big expansion in a short frame of time,” said Greene, who added she doesn’t plan to open any more stores in the near future.

The couple, who lives in Plainfield but is looking to move back to Hamilton Co., boasts its wide variety of flavor options, with new ones being created continuously.

“We have over 60 flavors, so I think we’re at 62 right now, maybe 63,” said Greene, who keeps a running list of new flavor ideas. “We’re always inventing new ones. Our new flavor is Breakfast at Heidi Pops.

Think pancake syrup, and we use real bacon.”

All flavors are not made each day, but are available to order. Most fruit and candy-flavored popcorns are available in sealed packages at the stores and kiosks. Green said special orders are common.

“To do the flavors all the time and have a consistent quality to them, it’s a lot of work. We use top quality products,” Green said. “We use real butter, real sugar. We melt our cheese down, so it’s not a powdered or reconstituted cheese.”

Before opening the first store, Greene worked at ADP as an executive assistant in the sales department, and Russ is a retired Army major in addition to working in the corporate executive environment.

“This is something I’ve always wanted to do.

The landscape industry is oozing with leftbrain, creative types packed with emotion.

Perhaps that’s what I dig outdoors most about this profession … the ability to passionately pour raw emotions into designs, installation teams, projects and clients.

Can you appreciate how most client conversations eventually elevate toward emotions?

From obvious patio/plant conversations to imagined use of space and head turning curb appeal?

Quandry That’s what prompted S.W. to email. He described their patio as stale and wondered how we could fuel it with personality. What we quickly realized is the patio lacked … emotion.

Fortunately S.W. married-up, as the saying goes, to C.W. who had brilliantly detailed the 1,000-square-foot blue stone patio with luxury blue-patterned cushy furniture resting on lush outdoor rugs surrounded with deliciously planted pots. Appropriately beautiful for the leafy neighborhood.

Despite that, it was stale and emotion starved.

Resolution Ideas percolated and the design matured.

The massive patio was restored, expanded and portioned into several cozy to spacious, intentionally defined, outdoor living spaces.

The once dreary is now dramatic, bright and textured with flowering ornamental trees and fragrant goodies that subtly announce distinct areas to entertain or relax. Elevated natural limestone planters and formal terraced walls call attention to grade changes and push the views towards wooded backdrops and hidden courtyards. That solution allows a group to gather intimately in one area while others hang around the fire feature or grill station, all with a suggested sense of privacy.

Families gather. Kids laugh. Men smoke cigars and women wonder how they ended up with us. That’s what emotion infused design and incredible outdoor living spaces promote.

Aging: Preparing for later Commentary by Lorene Burkhart

The Shard from the Tower of London. (Photo by Don Knebel)

Shard: A new symbol of London?

Commentary by Don Knebel

Critics of London’s “Shard” say it resembles broken glass. Erecting that building, the tallest in the Europe Union, required breaking barriers, both aesthetic and technical. travel In 2000, Irvine Seller, a London developer, got the idea of erecting a vertical city on the site of a building he owned just south of the River Thames, across from the Tower of London. Wanting not only to erect a building but to make a statement, he met in Berlin with Italian architect Renzo Piano, who sketched the design of an irregularly-shaped glass pyramid on a restaurant napkin. Seller immediately embraced the design concept, inspired by the masts of Thames sailing ships and London church spires, but a number of London heritage groups did not.

One said the proposed building would be like“a shard of glass through the heart of historic London.” After an expensive public inquiry, the design was approved and the derision was adopted as the building’s official name.

The site on which the Shard was to be

erected was closely surrounded by other buildings, including a hospital, which required demolishing the existing 24-story building piece by piece. To save time and money, 23 stories of the concrete central core of the new building, to which the floors are attached, were completed before the basement had been excavated, a technique called “top down” construction that had never been used on a skyscraper. The concrete core rose nearly 10 feet a day, with the forms aligned using GPS, another technique new to skyscrapers.

Completed in 2012, the Shard is 1,016 feet high and incorporates 11,000 panes of glass, enough to cover more than 10 football fields.

The glass reflects the changing colors of the sky, creating what some are beginning to regard as the new symbol of London. Critics are not sure they like that idea.

No phone calls. No recruiters. EOE.

As the clock ticks and the eighth decade approaches, elderly individuals and their families realize that commentary painful decisions are on the horizon. Singles may be experiencing loneliness. One or both parents may be having health issues. Home maintenance may be increasingly difficult.

All of these contribute to family discussions regarding relocation. If the elderly parent lives in a different city or state from the adult child or children, the problem is even more painful for the elderly person. Resolution will most likely involve a major change for the parent/s.

Retirement communities are well aware of the abundance of new elders and deluge them with mailings about the benefits they are offering. Of course, there is an option to do nothing until forced to move because of health issues or to hire live-in or other help.

The elder person can decide to be proactive and positive in the decision, which certainly endears them to their family.

My downsizing decision came as a result

of realizing that clinging to my existing lifestyle wouldn’t, in the long run, be practical nor would it create long-term happiness.

Expecting my heirs to deal with my “stuff” seemed unfair. A plan began to 1) decide where to move 2) when to sell my condo and 3) how to dispose of a lifetime of “treasures.”

After considering an apartment in a snazzy new building (and actually making a deposit), life intervened and health issues caused me to realize that I needed to be in a facility offering a wide range of services.

With no immediate family nearby, it was necessary to consider how to function with the assistance of strangers, who would function as family.

I was fortunate that the process began while I could make my own decisions because my health was rapidly declining.
