Charter school, CCS at odds over availability of OPE

By Ann Marie Shambaugh AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com A new charter school with ties to Hillsdale College, a small conservative Christian liberal arts college in EDUCATION Michigan, is aiming to open for the 2023-24 school year in the building that most recently housed Orchard Park Elementary, which would disrupt a partnership between Carmel Clay Schools and Carmel Clay Parks & Recreation to convert the former campus into a new park.

According to state law, public school districts must make vacant school buildings available to charter schools to purchase or lease for $1 before selling or disposing of the building. The law states that districts must alert the Indiana Dept. of Education of plans to vacate a building within 10 days of the decision being made.

The CCS school board voted on June 25, 2018, to close Orchard Park at the conclusion of the 2020-21 school year. CCS, however, hasn’t notified IDOE of a pending vacancy because it is still using the building for meeting space, professional development, staging and safety drills.

Meanwhile, the CCS school board approved a resolution in June 2021 outlining its intentions to lease the site to CCPR to develop a new park. The school board vote occurred less than a week before a change in state law that would require school districts to receive confirmation from the attorney general that the district has complied with laws requiring vacant school buildings to be offered to charter schools.

Organizers of Valor Classical Academy, the charter school seeking to open in the Orchard Park site, believe CCS is out of compliance with the law. Matt Wolf, a Valor founding board member, said the matter may need to be decided in court.

CCS Supt. Michael Beresford, however, said the district has followed state law.

“Carmel Clay Schools has confirmation from the Indiana Attorney General’s office that we are fully compliant with the law regarding the use of the building,” Beresford

Flags fly March 30 in front of the building that previously housed Orchard Park Elementary.

said. “We sought clarity from state officials last year about necessary notifications. We did not have to formally notify the state pursuant to the ‘dollar law’ because we continue to use the building.”

CCPR Director Michel Klitzing said that CCPR is continuing discussions with CCS regarding the future use of Orchard Park and that no plans have been finalized.

Holly Wilson, Valor founding board president, said Orchard Park is the charter school’s top choice because of the low cost to obtain it and its proximity to families interested in the school.

As a mother of several children in Noblesville Schools, Wilson became disappointed several years ago with what she saw as a lack of civics education in the curriculum.

Initially, she thought her only other option was to homeschool, which wasn’t feasible for her family.

But soon she came to learn more about charter schools, which offer a tuition-free public education in a setting exempt from some state and school district regulations, giving them more autonomy than traditional public schools. They are held accountable by the organization — such as a governing body or Indiana Charter School Board — that authorizes them.

As Wilson, whose children now attend private school, learned more about charter schools, she decided to work with Wolf, who co-founded Seven Oaks Classical School in 2016 near Bloomington, to open one in Hamilton County. Wolf commuted to Hamilton County frequently for work and

realized it would likely be a good fit for a charter school of its own.

Wilson also saw increased interest in bringing a new charter school to Hamilton County.

“There seems to be more parents saying, ‘We’d like to see more of that kind of education,’’ she said.

Valor Classical Academy got a boost when Hillsdale College agreed to accept it as part of its Barney Charter School Initiative, meaning Hillsdale — which also partners with Seven Oaks — will provide free curriculum and other non-financial support. Wolf said Valor has contacted the Grace School Charter Authority, which is affiliated with Grace College, to be its authorizer.

Hillsdale has been growing its network of charter schools in recent years through the Barney Charter School Initiatives. BCSI schools serve more than 14,500 K-12 students in the U.S. with more than 8,000 on a waitlist. According to its website, the BCSI model “offers a firm grounding in civic virtue, and cultivates moral character.” It has faced criticism, however, for some of its views, such as its mission statement that states that the college won’t be “succumbing to the dehumanizing, discriminatory trend of so-called ‘social justice’ and ‘multicultural diversity.’”

Valor Classical Academy plans to serve 350 students in kindergarten through sixth grade when it opens and then expand through high school in subsequent years.

Enrollment is expected to begin in early 2023 for the school’s first class.

Valor’s five-member board is comprised of Wilson, a real estate agent and founding board president; Wolf, an IT manager and founding board secretary; Tara Nichols, a classical school educator and founding board treasurer; Karen Reynolds, a retired educator; and Beth Glynn, a CPA. Wilson said Valor is not affiliated with Moms for Liberty of Hamilton County, which has expressed support for opening a new school locally, or any other local organization.

Chair of rebranded Unify Carmel ‘Maximum Leader’ of right-wing site

By Ann Marie Shambaugh AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com Unify Carmel has rebranded itself as New Tomorrow and named as its chairperson a longtime member of the EDUCATION group who previously remained behind the scenes.

The controversial group recently became a political action committee, and on March 4 it updated its filing with the Indiana Secretary of State’s office to change its name to New Tomorrow and list Charles Haywood as its chairperson.

Haywood declined to comment on his ties to Unify Carmel when reached by phone on Feb. 28.

“I don’t have any time to talk about that, and I’m not interested in talking about it,” he said. He did not respond to a second request for an interview.

Online, however, Haywood describes himself as the “Maximum Leader” of his website, The Worthy House, as well as the founder of foundationalism, an applied political philosophy that he foresees reshaping society after a coming government collapse.

He sees “autonomic liberalism” as the source of all of society’s problems, and he writes that foundationalism’s first act will be to destroy it.

Among hundreds of posts on The Worthy House, Haywood, a Carmel resident, writes that the Jan. 6 riot at the Capitol was “pretty awesome in every way,” that it is rare that a woman working outside the home “makes, through her employment, a significant contribution to advancing society” and that there should be a “permanent denial of civil rights, such as political participation” for some on the left once their “nasty ideology” is “permanently discredited.”

Haywood is a former lawyer-turned-entrepreneur who founded Mansfield-King, which manufactures aerosol and liquid personal care products. He sold the business in 2020, making him “rich beyond the dreams of avarice and looking to cause trouble,” according to his website. Several people formerly associated with Unify Carmel said that Haywood provided much of the funding for the group’s efforts.

Unify Carmel/New Tomorrow bills itself as seeking a return to academic excellence in Carmel Clay Schools but is perhaps best known for its controversial tactics at school board meetings and on social media. For example, members of the group continuously interrupted and spoke over the CCS school board as it attempted to conduct a meeting in September 2021, which led to the district banning the public from attending school board meetings for more than two months.

Haywood is also associated with an organization called the Society for American Civic Renewal, which shares a P.O. Box with Unify Carmel/New Tomorrow. According to its website, SACR’s vision includes “raising accountable leaders to help build thriving communities of free citizens, who will reclaim a humane vision of society while rebuilding the frontier-conquering spirit of America.” Membership in the group, which also has a chapter in Dallas, is by invitation only.

According to the Indiana Secretary of State’s INBiz database, Haywood is listed as the director of the Society for American Civic Renewal.

Alvin Lui, the previous chairperson of Unify Carmel, did not respond to requests for comment. In a previous interview, Lui declined to release the names of the founders and board members of Unify Carmel.

DISPATCHES Board appointment — Carmel Mayor Jim Brainard has appointed Chris Carlisle of BraunAbility, a Carmel-based manufacturer of mobility transportation solutions, to serve on the city’s Advisory Committee on Disability. Carlisle leads marketing Carlisle efforts for the firm, which opened its new corporate headquarters in Carmel in 2019. Carlisle and his wife, Sara, moved to Carmel in 2011 with their three

children, Emersen, Everett and Eleanor. He also serves on the board of directors for ALS Indiana.

Kibler wins NCAA title — Drew Kibler, a 2018 Carmel High School graduate, on March 25 won the NCAA Division I title in the 200-yard freestyle in men’s swimming. Kibler, a senior at the University of Texas, finished with a time of 1:30.28. He competed for the U.S. in the 2020 summer Olympics in the 4x200 freestyle relay, an event in which the team finished in fourth place.

A Carmel woman died in a two-vehicle accident March 23 on I-74 in Fountain County.

According to the Indiana ACCIDENT State Police, a 2016 freightliner heading eastbound near mile marker 8 and driven by Sayidali Sheikhmohamed, 37, of Saint Paul, Minn. struck the passenger side of a 2012 Toyota Camry that, for unknown reasons, was facing south across eastbound lanes.

The winner will challenge incumbent Republican U.S. Rep. Victoria Spartz in November. Read the full Q&As at youarecurrent.com.

JEANNINE LEE LAKE Age: 52 Education: Bachelor’s degree in journalism from Ball State University and ABT (all but thesis) completed toward a master’s degree in journalism.

Occupation: Journalist Lake of 30-plus years.

City: Muncie Immediate family: I am recently single after a 25-plus year marriage. I have four adult children and three grandchildren.

Website: Jeannineleelakeforcongress.com Why do you want to run for office? I am a great leader and will be an effective U.S. congresswoman! I love serving people and enjoy finding solutions.

What are your qualifications for this office? I’m an American patriot who loves her country. I will do whatever I can to fight for every American so that we all have equal opportunities and protection under the banner of the Constitution.

What are the top three issues that your campaign will focus on?

1) Helping address issues related to the pandemic and finding solutions for those

problems. Particularly, economic concerns for small business owners like myself.

2) Healthcare disparities, from high prescription costs to lack of access to affordable healthcare.

3) Reviewing and creating common-sense legislation that targets Red Flag laws and national networking system, but doing so in a way that it does not violate laws that truly respect the Constitutional rights of Hoosier gun-owners.

What sets you apart from other candidates for this office? I’m a fighter who stays in the game because I have “skin in the game.” Some people have little to lose if our nation goes the way that Spartz envisions, whether that’s her acceptance of QAnon conspiracy theories to denying the existence of the January 6 insurrection on our most precious U.S. Capitol. I envision an America that is bright and optimistic and that nation is staunchly built on truth and reality.

Something you want people to know about you? I’m a fiscally conservative, socially liberal Christian Democrat. One supporter told me I’m for “God, guns, gays and grandkids!” I liked that!

PROVEN EXPERTISE for uncertain markets.

Website: matthallforcongress.com Why do you want to run for office? Service. I have learned that service to others is not only helping others, but it helps me find gratitude. I also want to provide leadership to Congress. I feel that congressional representatives too often forget to represent regular folks in Washington D.C. What are your qualifications for this office? 28 years of military service and leadership. I have set up nonprofits and

programs that are designed to serve others.

What are the top three issues that your campaign will focus on? Mental and behavioral health — It’s the foundation to almost all issues. Crime reduction, financial health, career improvement, etc. Economy and infrastructure — making your dollar worth more and ensuring that you can move safely and effectively around the country.

And Main Street America — supporting small businesses, police and fire departments and people.

What sets you apart from other candidates for this office? My life has been about service for others. I have zero designs on improving my financial means. I didn’t join the military or start nonprofits to make money. I truly aspire to help as many people as I can.

Something you want people to know about you? I’m a regular guy. No frills. People are tired of divisive politics and ready for us to take on tough issues.

County directs ARPA funds to affordable housing

By Les Morris news@currentincarmel.com The need for affordable housing in Hamilton County is real, and with the assistance of the American Rescue GOVERNMENT Plan Act, county leaders are addressing the issue.

The Hamilton County Commissioners and Hamilton County Council plan to set aside $5 million for affordable housing using ARPA funds. Projects will Altman be identified by the Hamilton County Housing Coalition.

“The need is very real,” said Amy Massillamany, a member of the council’s APRA committee. “Many of our neighbors and friends here in Hamilton County have financially struggled over the course of the pandemic.

We owe it to them to use this funding to provide them with more housing security.”

Hamilton County Commissioner Christine Altman said a family whose annual income is $81,000 can only afford 6 percent of listings and new construction in Hamilton County. Many families make much less. Altman said her review of the numbers reveals more than half of the county’s largest occupations by employment pay less than $20 an hour, at best approximately half of that annual $81,000 figure.

“We’ve got to find an overarching solution that is inclusive for our teachers, police and firefighters, positions that we don’t pay a lot of money to but that we definitely need,” Altman said.

Two federal programs are involved. The HOME Investment Partnerships Program provides grants to fund construction, buying or rehabilitating of affordable housing for low-income households. The National Housing Trust Fund increases and preserves the supply of affordable housing for those same households. Both rental and ownership options are included in the programs.

Half of the $5 million being allocated to affordable housing projects is earmarked to come from the current round of ARPA funding, with the other half allocated from the next round.

FHS softball player sees success after overcoming vision issues

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Fishers High School senior softball player Hannah Abbott’s vision issues started in January 2021.

“I had a headache and blind spots in my eyes,” she said. “It affected my everyday life. I couldn’t drive, read or play softball. Not long after, I lost my passion for softball. I would have to sit out of practices some days because I couldn’t see enough to play safely.”

Eventually, Abbott said she realized that she didn’t have to play to have fun.

“I started to focus on my teammates and support them. I became the cheerleader in the dugout,” she said. “If I couldn’t play, I still wanted to be a part of the team. Once I thought about softball like this, slowly my passion for softball was there again. I would be lying to say that it wasn’t hard to stay positive. But my friends on the team were great and supported me the entire way.”

She has since been diagnosed with acute macular neuroretinopathy, which basically means that she has blind spots in her vi-

“It’s like when you look up at the sun for too long,” she said. “I was able to make some improvements being on medicine and seeing a different eye specialist. But I live with it every day and have been able to push through it.”

bott hit .750 with two home runs and seven RBIs. “I think I have improved most on seeing the ball, making contact with my bat and just becoming more confident in the box,” Abbott said. “Last season, I wasn’t able to

see or track the ball because of my vision problems. The offensive part of the game I wasn’t confident on anymore. I’ve been working hard this year to build up the confidence and help my team out.”

Fishers coach Daren James said Abbott was mainly used in a pinch-running role and played second base last season. She had only 11 at-bats with no hits or RBIs. “Quite a turnaround this year,” James said. “Hannah has been a great leader this year. She has been working hard on her hitting and it is paying off early this year.”

Abbott has moved from second base to first base.

“Honestly, I was taken by surprise when they put me at first, but so, far so good,” Abbott said.

James agreed it’s been a smooth transition.

“Her move to first has been very natural,” James said. “Hannah is a very good athlete.

She has a good arm and good foot speed.

She has really increased her strength in the weight room and she understands the game.”

Abbott plans to attend Purdue University and eventually wants to go into nursing.

Pilot honored for safety

By Jillian Kurtz new@currentincarmel.com After 50 years of exemplary aviation flight experience, professionalism and commitment to aviation safety, ACHIEVEMENT Carmel resident Mark Eberly, 66, has received the Wright Brothers Master Pilot Award.

Only given to approximately 2,000 recipients to date, the award is presented by the Federal Aviation Administration.

“A critical element of this award is the safety aspect,” Eberly said. “I’m proud of the fact that I’ve amassed 3,500 hours of flying in a small, general aviation airplane, and I’ve done that safely and proficiently.”

Eberly grew up in Solon, Ohio, where his interest in aviation was sparked as a teenager growing up during the space race.

“I went to Horns Flying School, popped down my $20 and took my first lesson when I was 14,” Eberly said.

Eberly soloed his first flight in July 1971.

“There were a lot of pilots coming out of the military, particularly the Vietnam War, who had substantially more hours and qualifications,” Eberly said. “I ended up thinking

(aviation) would be an avocation rather than a vocation.”

Eberly and his wife, Debbie, moved to Carmel in 1992 for a job opportunity and have been residents ever since. Now, many of their flights are to visit family across the U.S., including their two sons: Ross, 38, and Eric, 36, who both live on the West Coast. “(Flying) has allowed us to keep in touch with family on a much more regular basis,” Eberly said.

The couple wants to cross off some bucket-list trips in the future, including a “deep northeast fall-color tour” and a tour around New York City.

A Google search led Sam Costa on a journey.

“Back in ninth grade, ACHIEVEMENT my friends and I were all searching our names in Google to see if there were any celebrities/historical figures with the same name,” Costa said. “That’s when I came across the Sam Costa Half Marathon. After looking more into it, I knew I had to come up and compete in it one day.”

That day came and Costa, 24, not only ran in the March 26 race in Carmel but was the overall winner in 1:13.09 seconds. The race is named for the late Sam Costa, a Chicago police detective and runner who died in 1972.

But this Sam Costa, a 24-year-old from Buford, Ga., was running his first ever half marathon.

Costa, however, is an accomplished runner, having competed in cross country and track and field at his Georgia high school and then at Georgia Tech from 2016-21.

“After looking at race results from past years, I knew that I had a good shot (at

Carmel resident Holly Read, 36, was the first-place female finisher in 1:20.55.

She ran her personal best by 57 seconds.

“Since we live by the course, my husband, two sons and sister-in-law got to see me twice, once in the first mile and then again at mile 12,” Read said.

Protect yourself against computer intrusions

Reflecting on reflections

Commentary by Swan Security Team

Playing with words has been a pastime for many years. Crossword puzzles, Scrabble and now Wordle, to PLAIN TALK name a few. Today, I’ve picked just one word to play with. I’m sure you will think of others.

The word is “reflections.” Its derivative, reflect, has two meanings: To remind oneself or to show an image. Reflection can mean an idea arising in the mind or a reflected image. Reflective can mean thoughtful or giving a reflection.

No wonder learning the English language is such a challenge!

As we age, we become more reflective, often sharing stories of earlier years, then watching the youngsters roll their eyes.

Sometimes, our reflections provide insight into earlier behaviors that weren’t thought about when they were happening, providing an “aha!” moment.

Our lives reflect our values, sometimes causing us to change direction when we get off course.

Reflect, reflection or reflective. Each has its own double meaning. Have some fun with this. Pick a time in your life to reflect about. It could be your college years, maybe your career path, or even time with parents or grandparents. Jot down some thoughts that pop into your head. Maybe you could pick some bad experiences and show how you have changed. Don’t hesitate to scold yourself for bad decisions but use your reflections to move on to better times.

Ask yourself, “What did I learn from the experience?”

Research has shown that word games are good for our brains as we age. But they are fun anytime. So, locate your Scrabble board and challenge your grandchildren to a game. Well, maybe not. Pick an easier partner!

Today, cybersecurity is more important than ever.

Cybersecurity crimTECHNOLOGY inals are increasingly active, and the risk of your business being compromised by a malicious attack is quite high. Bad actors will typically gain access to your network using a few basic techniques. Let’s look at the most common security attacks.

Dr. Dale Snead, Orthopedic Surgeon

PHISHING Phishing attacks can vary, but they almost always involve one’s email inbox.

These phishing emails contain malicious attachments or links that typically trigger the download of a script that assists hackers in gaining access to your environment.

It can cause security breaches in your network, which can be easily exploited by malicious actors when they use it to steal valuable information such as employee’s personal information, customer’s information, credit card information, etc.

Do not download attachments or follow links from someone you don’t know or from whom you aren’t expecting anything.

STOLEN CREDENTIALS Many applications and services require authentication through the submission of a pair of credentials. The most common form is an email address and password.

How can one avoid having their credentials stolen? One important way to protect credentials is to never use your work credentials or work email to log in to any nonwork-related services. Also, try not to use similar or exact passwords elsewhere.

WEBSITE SPOOFING Website Spoofing is the act of creating a fake website or URL address that strongly resembles a real website. This fake website can be used to capture financial information, steal credentials, or simply infect your computer with malware. Fake websites are especially dangerous because scammers excel at making their fake websites look exactly like the websites you trust and visit every day.

We hope that this information can help you and your organization be more secure! If you are considering outsourcing your cybersecurity or would like to understand more how that works, Swan Software Solutions in Carmel can help.

Take an unmatched level of care to a brand-new place.

Carmel runner evades COVID to compete in Antarctica Half-Marathon

By Ann Marie Shambaugh AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com For Mohan Ambaty, completing a half marathon in Antarctica wasn’t nearly the most difficult part of his trip.

The physical challenge for the longtime runner seemed fairly routine compared to the emotional toll of frequent COVID-19 testing, precautionary quarantines and the knowledge that his quest to run a half-marathon on every continent could be deterred at any moment because of uncooperative weather or a positive test result. A few days of seasickness didn’t help, either.

But on Jan. 28, Ambaty, 53, completed the Antarctica Half-Marathon on King George Island in a time of 2:26:30, finishing second in the men’s event. It was a race like no other, he said, devoid of crowds, water stations and music.

“Stepping on (Antarctica), I felt like Neil Armstrong, on a different planet,” Ambaty said. “No pollution, no noise, except you can hear the penguins.”

PANDEMIC DISRUPTIONS When Ambaty realized in 2018 that his new job as chief information officer at the Indiana State Dept. of Health would require hours of sitting in front of a computer screen, he decided to find a way to motivate himself to stay active and fit. So, he set a goal of running a half-marathon on every continent, completing one race each year.

Ambaty, who moved from India to Indiana in 1998, completed a half-marathon at the Great Wall of China in 2019 in 2:39:35, but his timeline was soon altered by the arrival of the COVID-19 pandemic in early 2020, which halted most

trained late at night or in the early morning hours to run in conditions as cold as possible.

“They said the climate can go wrong at any time, so you need to prepare for the worst, because it changes very quickly,” Ambaty said.

The weather on race day was less extreme, as it turned out, a sunny 38 degrees.

‘A VERY TOUGH CHALLENGE’

international travel and canceled races worldwide. And as CIO at the state agency most involved in managing the pandemic locally, Ambaty had more pressing matters to consume his time.

But there was no rush. When Ambaty registered in 2019 to run in Antarctica, he wasn’t guaranteed a spot until 2023.

However, he joined the waitlist for earlier races and learned in late November 2021 that a spot had become available to run in January, leaving him little time to train for the 13.1mile event.

Race organizers told Ambaty to be ready to run in temperatures ranging from 35 to 25 degrees below zero, so he

By the time Ambaty returned from his journey, he had taken 18 COVID-19 tests. They were required before boarding planes, daily onboard the ship that carried him to Antarctica and at other points along the way.

Two runners were unable to compete after testing positive on the morning of the race. Others became ineligible through previous tests.

Ambaty was thankful to avoid that fate.

“It’s a very tough challenge from the COVID perspective, but the race officials and expedition team did a wonderful job,” he said.

Ambaty tested negative after the race, too, which allowed him to explore other parts of Antarctica — including by kayak, his favorite part of the trip — and South America on his way home.

Ambaty’s next race is a bit closer to home, as he plans to run in the half marathon April 9 as part of the Carmel Marathon weekend of events. For his next international race, he wants to compete in Australia in 2023.

Carmel Marathon weekend competitors run for many reasons

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com When Tommy Craft competes in the Carmel Half Marathon on April 9, it will be his 135th 13.1-mile race.

“I have run 10 full marathons, but the half is my favorite distance,” Craft said.

Craft, 51, ran his first half marathon in 2015, but reaching 135 finish lines hasn’t always been easy, especially after he learned he had prostate cancer in August 2019.

“It came as a complete shock. I had no symptoms and no family history of it,” said Craft, a cross country coach at Henry Clay High School in Lexington, Ky. “I immediately went on medication, but I continued running various half marathons on Sundays while coaching my runners on Saturdays.

My running times slowed significantly. I went from a half marathon time of perhaps 1 hour, 55 minutes to around 2 hours and 30 minutes. The meds just slowed me down as I wasn’t able to get the oxygen I needed into my muscles like I had previously been able to do. At least, that’s what my doctor told me. I generally took Fridays off but running was a part of my journey the other days of the week until I had my prostate removed in November 2019. Once I had surgery, I took off six weeks from running to heal. In January 2020, I ran my first 5K since having surgery. I ran 18 marathons in 2020.”

Craft had earned a personal record and was running as well as he ever had.

“Things were fine, I thought, until I had routine blood work, which showed an increase in my PSA (prostate-specific antigen),” Craft said. “After a few tests, I learned that my cancer had returned, or maybe it didn’t fully go away.

I started 36 rounds of radiation in late June (2021) and finished in mid-August after the school year began. I am still on meds, which affect my pace, but I’m still able to run a half marathon, which is what I’ll be doing at Carmel. I won’t be running a full marathon again until after I finish my meds around September. Therefore, my return to the full marathon distance will be the Indy Monumental.”

Craft, who still managed to complete 23 half marathons in 2021, said he wants people to know that it is so important not to give up after receiving a cancer diagnosis.

“It won’t be easy, but you can choose to fight it,” Craft said. “I have days that I’m too tired to run, and during radiation, it was a struggle at times, but I never gave up. I kept moving, and my doctor, whom I fully trust, said that I needed to run long, run strong, so that’s what I did. People need to stay on top of things. Get those routine checkups. Know your body. Keep active and keep going.”

national parks are hard to get to.”

Thompson said several members of the 50 States Marathon Club are planning to meet at the Carmel Marathon.

Thompson, 50, has completed 125 marathons. He is one of five people who have completed the Carmel full marathon every year. A member of the Carmel Runners Club, Thompson has lived in Carmel since 2001. Thompson took 18 Carmel Runners Club members to Alaska, and they ran a marathon there together in June 2021.

“What is neat about the whole process is, I think I’ve sparked excitement in people to travel, explore and run,” Thompson said.

Some Carmel Runners Club members are planning an October trip to Maine with Thompson to run a marathon and visit a national park.

RUNNING IN 50 STATES – AGAIN

THE LOVE OF RUNNING

Carmel resident Craig Thompson became a member of the 50 States Marathon Club in 2016 after completing a marathon in each state.

“I started going around a second time, and I am halfway through,” Thompson said. “I found it so fun the first time I’m doing it again. It really struck a chord, and I developed a love of traveling. Now I’m also trying to visit all the national parks in the United States. I found it to be a lot harder than running a marathon in all 50 states because many of the

Karen Murray and her husband, Glen Anderson, both 55, met at the Rehoboth Beach (Del.) Marathon in 2014.

“We kept running into each other and probably started dating on and off in 2017,” Murray said. “We started planning our marathons together at that point.”

The couple, who now live outside Charlottesville, Va., got married in November 2020.

This will be the first Carmel Marathon for both. It will be the 406th marathon for Anderson and 268th for Murray.

Murray ran her first marathon in 2012 and completed her first round of 50 states in 2016. Murray had a goal of completing all 50 states by age 50. She completed it three days before she turned 50.

Murray is working on completing 50 states for the fourth time while her husband is working on his seventh round.

ESSAY

HUMOR

Where is the punch line?

Funny thing about stress

Commentary by Terry Anker

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

There is no obligation on the part of celebrities, actors, politicians, athletes and the like to be anything more than good at their jobs. Being a reasonably competent lawmaker may be more important than being an abusive boss or terrible driver. Being a skilled athlete may provide excuse for misogyny or at least counterbalance our reprehension at the idea. And the impressive feats of make-believe that thespians deliver entertain us every day. So, can’t we overlook their illegal and violent acts? Occasionally, anyway? It is painful when heroes fail to live up to our expectations.

Long-reigning box office champion Will Smith recently took occasion at one of Hollywood’s many self-congratulatory awards ceremonies to physically attack the host of the show, claiming that he’d been offended by a joke made about another actor, his wife. Smith has been quite forthright about the “open” nature of that marriage and the insufficiency, for him, of monogamy.

Four years younger, 4 inches taller and 57 pounds beefier, Smith believes his attack to have been justified because of the tone of the lampooning from the host, Chris Rock, which Smith may have rightly held had gone too far.

One can empathize. Most of us don’t like it when we feel ourselves to be the butt of the joke. Likely the comedian, Rock, is used to being bullied since middle school and will laugh it off, but it raises the question, when do we have the right to violent recourse? Do we deputize ourselves vigilantes, fully imbued with the power of retribution? Or do we live in a civil space where we tolerate those that we perceive to be ignorant, even offensive, only using force through codified law? Do we scold Smith or Rock, or neither? Does what we say of them point to us?

Stress is a sneaky villain. It builds and builds, and then, bam, you find yourself sobbing in the minivan after your daughter’s dance competition, barely able to navigate roundabouts through the torrent of tears and snot.

I don’t cry often, but when I do, it ain’t pretty. Here’s the skinny.

I’d been riding the anxiety bus all week. Nothing major, just a bunch of little annoyances that were throwing off my sleep and continually pressing the angst button. My husband, Doo, and I had argued; our younger son was denied a college transfer request and now may not graduate on time; our high school senior received a rejection from her dream university; and I’d decided to teach something completely new for my annual administrator’s observation.

I actually thought I was fine when Saturday rolled around. Doo and I had talked, the aforementioned kids were rallying and my lesson went off without a hitch. I was no longer consciously worrying about anything, and the dance competition went relatively well.

But I made it only a few minutes into the ride home before the pent-up emotions burst forth. I quickly went from half-heartedly criticizing the obviously talent-blind judges to bawling about my dad who passed in 2020, our cat who died last May and stupid Indiana politicians. Of course, my breakdown wasn’t about any of those things, but rather a culmination of a psychologically straining week. And part of me is saying, “It’s OK. It’s just stress. Let it go,” while another part is like, “You’re a hot mess.

Perfect column fodder!”

So, yeah, stress is sneaky but also occasionally entertaining. You’re welcome.

Peace out.

DO YOU HAVE A PRESCRIPTION FROM YOUR EYE DOCTOR, AND WANT TO SHOP FOR NEW GLASSES?

Listen to your neighbors Editor, We pledge allegiance to our country’s flag and declare our nation to be “indivisible.”

But even this simple pledge has changed over time to reflect the values of the day.

Our shared values today in our globalized world require that we listen to one another and that we hear the diverse voices that have always been a part of our national fabric, but which have been overlooked or ignored for too long. Without all of us doing this hard work of listening, our democracy will not remain “indivisible,” Carmel is a community that wholeheartedly supports our top-ranked school system. In fact, But now our public school system, staff members and individuals who support diversity, equity and inclusion work are under attack, locally and nationally — all politicized by groups and individuals who

believe the schools are players in a liberal conspiracy to indoctrinate our youth.

We are supposed to be a nation that accepts all and recognizes our differences. We must avoid, at all costs, being confined by our broken history of oppression and exclusion (nonrepresentation). I am not here to dwell on the past; however, it is important to understand perspectives of the historically excluded. Many of us, right here in Carmel, are members of groups that have been historically excluded from curricula and full civic participation, and the consequence of that exclusion is the sad state of affairs we all now raise our children in.

Rather than attack our schools/teachers/ individuals, let us reach out to those different than us and have meaningful conversations about their experiences.

Todd D. Crosby, Carmel

DEI support not all or nothing Editor, I would like to share several observations regarding the Feb. 22 cover story, “We Want to Be That Voice.”

First, I know the parents who have spoken out at school board meetings, and they are not opposed to diversity, equity and inclusion as these concepts are properly understood. What reasonable person is opposed to a student body that welcomes all students? The problem is not including all students and treating them equally; the problem is using the terms “diversity,” “equity” and “inclusion” to discuss issues that many parents find outside the scope of academic education.

Nowhere in the article does Keep Carmel Clay Schools Inclusive founder Sarah

Penquite or Current writer Ann Marie Shambaugh describe what CCS’s DEI initiatives include. When DEI efforts discuss gender expression, gender identity and sexual orientation, many parents argue that the school has overstepped its bounds and entered into instruction that belongs in the home.

I do not suggest that parents who support DEI efforts have ill intentions; of course, they “want what’s best for their kids,” as CCS mom Amal Anthony said.

Parents who oppose some aspects of DEI instruction also want what’s best for their kids. These parents are not asking the school to end all DEI efforts; they are asking that issues surrounding sexual orientation and gender identity be left to the home.

Be considerate in roundabouts Editor, Would (motorists) please stop honking your horn at others in roundabouts! Some people have to drive to our fair city for doctor appointments and different things and aren’t quite used to roundabouts. I think if you are honking at someone it indicates you are driving too fast and are being very inconsiderate of someone trying to enter and exit and get out unscathed as quickly as they can.

The city should have left some streets alone to get to places without having to use roundabouts.

I cannot believe there’s going to be a new roundabout at the high school by the new library. I shudder to think of our kids walking here. Please stop this plan now. I wish the citizens of Carmel had more say in these things.

A bit about cryptocurrency Commentary by Ryan C. Fuhrmann Back in 2015, cryptocurrency Bitcoin traded at about $300. Recently, Bitcoin prices returned back about ECONOMY $48,000. If you were lucky enough to buy some Bitcoin seven years ago, you’re sitting with a very large and impressive return of about 160 times your investment.

This impressive run in Bitcoin, one of the first cryptocurrencies, has encouraged the creation of what now numbers more than 18,000 cryptocurrencies, according to a recent article by Investopedia, which also defines a cryptocurrency as a digital virtual currency that isn’t issued by a central bank such as the Federal Reserve or government such as the U.S. Treasury, which prints and oversees the U.S. dollar. Instead, a bitcoin is “mined,” which is to say its creation happens using “sophisticated hardware that involves an extremely complex computational math problem.” This is also part of how a blockchain works.

Cryptocurrencies are run on decentralized networks, which, for some, is part of their appeal. Transactions are also created

and tracked through a technology called blockchain, which is supposed to make it safe. Yet, an estimated $14 billion in crypto was stolen last year, up 80 percent from the previous year.

The fact that cryptocurrency is decentralized, unregulated and hard to track also makes it appealing to crooks. About $10 billion in crypto is estimated to be used in illicit activities, such as money laundering, drug trafficking and cybercrimes.

Given all this complexity and uncertainty surrounding how cryptocurrencies are created, tracked and used, I can’t in good faith recommend them for your investment portfolio. Sure, you can throw a few hundred dollars at one in the hopes it skyrockets in price, but also be prepared to lose it completely.

CARMEL CLAY PUBLIC LIBRARY presents

Every four days, Tatiana Arabadzhy‘s mother makes the nearly two-hour journey from her home in GIVING BACK Ukraine to another city to buy food for the hundreds of people in her village. Recently, the warning sirens, which have been going off day and night signaling residents to find shelter, went off during one of those shopping trips. Russian planes and helicopters flew across the sky as her mother stood in the store, frozen in fear.

Fortunately, she survived to tell her daughter the tale.

Arabadzhy, with the help of a Carmel cycling and strength fitness studio, has been raising money to send to her friends and family still in Ukraine.

“I don’t make enough money to be able to help all of them by myself,” Arabadzhy said.

“With the help of the community, we can change lives and we can give hope to people, more than just my family and friends.”

Cathy Miller, owner of InCycle in Carmel City Center, knew when she first heard about the Russian attacks in Ukraine in late February she wanted to help.

“Just getting up every day and seeing the news and seeing what was happening to the people in Ukraine, I just felt like I couldn’t just stand by and do nothing, and I didn’t know what I could do,” Miller said.

Then, one of the instructors at InCycle introduced her to Arabadzhy, the instructor’s hair stylist.

Arabadzhy has been in the United States for 15 years but her family remains in Ukraine. Her mother, three siblings, nephew and stepson, as well as her husband’s family, are stuck in villages and cities in Ukraine that are occupied by Russian forces.

Arabadzhy’s husband, Yevhen Arabadzhy,

a former police officer in Ukraine, was so upset by the attacks that he wanted to go back to fight for his country. His wife talked him out of it.

“Honestly, I’m ready to go to Ukraine and to protect my family. If my husband is going to go, I’m definitely going with him,” Arabadzhy said. “But we both realize that we won’t be able to do as much as we can do from here.”

Part of the money they are raising is going to Ukrainian police to help fund equipment like helmets, bulletproof vests, proper shoes and night vision glasses.

InCycle has raised more than $7,000 for Arabadzhy’s family, who are very grateful for the help. The official fundraiser ended March 27, but donations will still be accepted through incycleindy.com/ ukraine-fundraiser. “(Donors are) not just saving lives, they’re giving people hope, courage,” Arabadzhy said. “Knowing that there is somebody behind them and helping them out, it gives them even bigger strength to fight for their lives. To me, that’s really amazing.”

On Your Lot program expanding

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com The Silverthorne Homes’ On Your Lot Program gives potential homeowners an opportunity to find their HOMEBUILDING own lot on which to build.

Christina DuPlessis, marketing manager for Silverthorne Homes, said two popular models are the Reagan ranch floor plan and Monroe two-story floor plan. DuPlessis said there are 11 floor plans.

“Right now, our sweet spot is definitely Hamilton County, although we recently branched out and are building On Your Lot in Shelbyville and Columbus, Indiana,” DuPlessis said. “We are branching out to the other surrounding counties of the Indy metro, not just Hamilton County. We have current availability in Noblesville and Westfield.”

DuPlessis said Silverthorne can buy the lot for the clients, so no construction loan is needed. Silverthorne can then personalize the floor plans to the client’s unique needs.

“It’s getting popular with builders because of the rise in the market and people wanting to build their own homes,” DuP-

The Monroe floor plan is one of 11 options clients can chose from as part of Silverthorne Homes On Your Lot program. (Photo courtesy of Silverthorne Homes)

lessis said. “A client will come in and say, ‘I saw this great piece of land in Westfield, and we really want to build with no HOA.’” DuPlessis said there are several proposed builds on the website, including in Edgewood and Avalon Hills in Indianapolis and on vacant land in Arcadia.

“The On Your Lot floor plans can start in the mid-$260,000s, which doesn’t include the land,” DuPlessis said.

The average price for On Your Lot Program is $428,000. Silverthorne was founded in 2006 as a semi-custom home builder.

Weed out foot pain Commentary by Dr. David Sullivan April is not only National Foot Health Awareness Month, but it is also PODIATRY National Garden Month. While gardening can give your property curb appeal, it’s also great exercise. Activities like mowing your lawn, pulling weeds and planting flowers work your whole body and can lower your risk for diabetes or heart disease. But it can also put lots of pressure on your feet and ankles. So, for that reason, I’m sharing four foot tips for gardening safely.

Tips to prevent gardening injuries: • Pick the right shoes: Gardening shoes need to offer plenty of support, since yard work puts pressure on your feet and toes. That’s especially true when you squat down to plant or fertilize flowers, since your bones could get compressed and inflamed without supportive footwear. Wear closed-toed shoes in your yard, especially if you plan to mow your lawn.

• Socks matter, too: Working in the hot sun makes you sweat. Choose sweat-wicking socks to keep your feet dry and reduce your risk for fungal infec-

tions. Avoid high, tight-fitting socks that can reduce your blood flow and lead to foot or ankle swelling.

• Protect your toenails: Squatting while you garden can shove your toenails up against the edge of your shoes. And repeat pressure or injury raises your risk for ingrown toenails. To prevent this problem, trim your nails straight across.

And leave a little visible white nail when you trim.

• Garden like an athlete: Stretch your feet, legs and ankles before and after gardening. Make sure to take breaks while you’re in the garden and avoid daily yard work if your body is tired. Finally, drink plenty of water to reduce swelling and prevent cramps.

Through it all, just remember that even walking around and watering your plants puts extra pressure on your feet.

Shepherd to perform ‘Trouble Is’ album

By Alan Sculley editorial@youarecurrent.com Kenny Wayne Shepherd’s recently released DVD, “Straight To You Live,” is the first concert DVD he’s CONCERT released in a career that spans more than 25 years.

But it’s not like he’s been trying to avoid doing such a project.

“The fans have been asking for a live DVD for decades,” said Shepherd, who will perform at 8 p.m. April 16 at the Palladium at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel. “We record audio every night, but we’ve done a number of shows with video as well. And for one reason or another, we just never felt like we had the right night.”

It’s possible this concert, which was filmed in Germany for broadcast on the legendary concert series “Rockpalast,” might have stayed on the shelf, too, if it hadn’t been followed a few months later by the COVID-19 pandemic.

“It was a real honor to be asked to do it,” Shepherd said of “Rockpalast.” “We watched it back and we were like, ‘Wow, it’s actually a really great performance.’

And then we really didn’t think much more about it until COVID happened. Then we started realizing that people are not going to be able to come and see us for a while, and they’ve been asking for a live concert for years, and we have this.

“The audio is great, the performance is great, the camera work is great. Maybe we should put this together and get it out to them so they can watch it in the comfort of their own homes until we can get back out on the road.”

Shortly after the Rockpalast concert, Shepherd and the band went into the studio to record a new album, which was finished just before the pandemic hit and the world shut down. Shepherd said he’ll wait until closer to the release date of the next studio album to debut those songs.

Instead, Shepherd and his band are marking the 25th anniversary of Shepherd’s second album, 1997’s “Trouble Is,” by playing the entire album on the tour.

One new song, though, that may well be included in Shepherd’s shows is “Hit ‘Em

Back,” a collaboration between Shepherd and blues singer-songwriter Shemekia Copeland that also features guest appearances by lap steel guitar player Robert Randolph and veteran blues drummer Tony Coleman.

Copeland, daughter of the late blues artist Johnny Copeland, reached out to Shepherd to write music to the lyrics she and co-writer John Hahn had completed.

The lyrics have a strong and multi-dimensional message calling for unity, respect and cooperation, while also pointing out the divisiveness that exists in today’s society overall and the blues community in particular. Shepherd wrote muscular and soulful blues-rock music to accompany the lyrics, which was what he felt the song demanded.

“I thought the song needed musically to be big and powerful because I feel the message is powerful,” Shepherd said.

Despite a quarter-century-plus history

with the blues, Shepherd, who exploded onto the scene at age 17 with his 1995 million-selling debut album, “Ledbetter Heights,” said he had not encountered the kind of anger and divisiveness within the blues community that are referenced in “Hit ‘Em Back.”

“Frankly, I thought of the community having always been very inclusive just up until recently,” he said. “And a lot of things have been revealed to me that I just was unaware of but have obviously been going on in the blues community for a while. I had no idea, so we thought it was time to address that because a lot of people are trying to use situations to divide people, and united we stand, divided we fall, right?

“We’re all here in the same music community and we do ourselves much more of a service if we get along and appreciate one another than trying to draw lines in the sand.”

‘Charlie Brown’ returns to The Cat

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com For once, Todd Stein joked no one is telling him to act his age.

“I’m definitely the old man MUSICAL of the group, but it’s not that I act like that,” Stein said.

“I’m 61, and by all means, say I act like a 5-year-old. Everyone who knows me knows that.”

That means he’s a good fit for the role of Linus in Carmel Apprentice Theatre’s production of “You’re A Good Man, Charlie Brown,” which runs April 8 to 17 at The Cat, 254 Veterans Way, Carmel.

This is the second show the Carmel resident has performed since high school. The other was in Carmel Apprentice Theatre’s production of “Play On!” in June 2021.

“It’s a lot of fun and a lot of work,” said Stein, who acted in musicals at West Lafayette High School. “We started rehearsals nine weeks ahead of the show.”

This is the five-year anniversary of Carmel Apprentice Theatre, which opened with “You’re A Good Man, Charlie Brown” in 2017.

17, plays Sally.

“This was a show that I saw when they originally did it at The Cat,” said Nagel, who has performed in other shows at The Cat. “I really liked the show. So, when I saw they were doing auditions for it a second time, I was excited. I always liked Sally’s character and the songs in the show. The songs are so fun to sing. Everyone in the cast is so good at their part. This is my favorite role and it’s my biggest role I’ve had. I was a little nervous because there are a lot of lines.

It’s the first solo song I’ve actually had. It was nerve-racking but everyone has made me comfortable doing this role.”

Actors Theatre of Indiana co-founder Cynthia Collins views cabaret as a special genre.

CABARET “One in which we have all enjoyed throughout our careers,” Collins said. “It’s personal and intimate and allows the performer to get at the heart of every song to make it truly their own.”

That’s why Collins and fellow ATI co-founders Judy Fitzgerald and Don Farrell are excited about their second year in collaboration with Feinstein’s at Hotel Carmichael in Carmel with their ATI Live at Feinstein’s series. The 2022 schedule was recently released.

“I, personally, love singing in that space,” Collins said. “Although it is fashioned after Feinstein’s 54 Below in NYC, I feel this design has a bit more warmth to it. All the artists ATI presents at Feinstein’s are either our friends in the business or associated with friends of ours. That’s how this business works, one degree of separation.

We want to promote and showcase these

talented performers, not only because they are friends, but because they are extremely talented, highly respected professionals.”

Farrell said ATI is thrilled to continue the partnership at the venue “to celebrate the power of live cabaret and enhance the quality of life for our Carmel community, our central Indiana community and the patrons of Feinstein’s.”

The ATI Live schedule is April 6: ATI Trio: What the World Needs Now; May 5: Richard Glazier: From Broadway to Hollywood; June 7: Open Mic Night; June 23: John Vessels, Darrin Murrell, Brent Marty, Just A Couple of Fools; July 9: Don Farrell: All the Way, The Frank Sinatra Tribute; July 14: Don Farrell: One Voice, The Music of Barry Manilow; July 21: Judy Fitzgerald: Walkin’ After Midnight: An Evening of Patsy Cline; July 28 - UN5GETTABLE; Aug. 3: Farrell: Music of Manilow; Aug. 18: Tony Humrichouser & Stephen Wallem; Aug. 24: Farrell, Sinatra tribute; Sept. 29: Julie Lyn Barber: Debbie Reynolds: A Life in Music; Oct. 20: Billy Stritch; Dec. 1: Farrell, Music of Manilow; Dec. 15-16: Celebrate the Holidays.

One that should top your list is actually a distillery, so it’s only available for diners 21 and older.

Cardindal Spirits also has a chef-inspired menu, featuring bright, colorful and delicious items such as Cardinal Quinoa Salad. I added salmon to mine for an extra $7, as well as a boiled egg for $1. The salad is made with local baby greens, sliced pears for a hint of sweetness, cucumbers, rainbow carrot strips for a splash of color, roasted baby beets, avocado and house-made Terra

Puttanesca tacos ($12) are a great vegan option with artichokes and a vegan parmesan.

Suggested pairings: Kisses of Fire ($9).

It is a creamy and slightly spicy cocktail with Cardinal Spirits Rum, coconut cream, pineapple, chipotle, lime, cayenne, smoke and orange bitters.

Purchase art you like Commentary by Randy Sorrell

FUNDAMENTALS OF ACTING ESSENTIALS OF MUSICAL THEATRE PLAY PRACTICE IMPROVISATION

I’m curious: How do you buy art? Is it intentional and with a purpose, or driven by emotion and impromptu?

VIEWPOINT Sure, it can be a little intimidating. Hint: Purchase what you like, and you will not regret it.

Purchasing art while traveling or at local art fairs is a prevailing trend among friends.

The Carmel International Arts Festival was mentioned several times, as were a few of the proprietary galleries on the main streets of Carmel, Zionsville and Fishers.

Heather Ward Miles, a thriving Carmel artist, emphasizes buying real art. In fact, she has edgy stickers proclaiming “BUY REAL ART” that are handed out freely in her studio. We share a common frustration of folks buying pieces of art that are not real/original. Of course, there are valid reasons to do that, but often for a similar price point, an original painting can be yours.

The beauty of real art is that it can immediately give a room or home a “presence” and set a mood. Real art can be more reflective of the owners’ personality and make a

statement. Just sayin’.

Miles taught visual art at Crispus Attucks High School for 16 years and began painting professionally in 2018. She describes her work as abstract contemporary with a connection to the universe. It’s certainly joyful and uplifting.

Life is short. Drink the wine. Eat the cake.

Buy the art.

Blueprint for Improvement: Timeless Westfield kitchen transformation Commentary by Larry Greene With a large family and a love for entertaining, these homeowners often have a full house. They wanted a style upgrade for their kitchen to accentuate their golf course view and improve functionality.

After

THE BLUEPRINT • The island was reconfigured to give the room additional entertaining space and improve flow.

• Quartz countertops in a matte finish provide ample workspace and durability.

• A wood beam replaced decorative arches for an unobstructed view of the golf course.

• Customized solutions were added, including spice and utensil pull-outs, pegboard drawer organizers, hidden power outlets and a pot filler.

• White perimeter cabinets help to brighten the space.

Putting people in their places Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt You probably know about placeholder names, even if you don’t know that’s what they’re called. That’s the whole point.

Whether you’re intenGRAMMAR GUY tionally or unintentionally being nonspecific about something, chances are you’re using a placeholder name.

Take names, for example. You know when you just can’t put your finger on someone’s name? We fill in the blank with Suzy Q, or whatshername. In marketing and legal documents, you might see John or Jane Doe, or perhaps their second cousin, Joe Schmoe.

My favorite person placeholder name is what’s-his-head.

Let’s take a moment to talk business.

When it comes to placeholder names relating to business and products, we can list a whole slew of them. It doesn’t matter if your company makes gadgets, gizmos, widgets or thingamajigs — they make doohickeys or whatchamacallits over there. You know what’s-his-head — he works over at Acme making doodads.

We find placeholder names in the world of living things. For instance, “bug” is a catch-all term for any insect. Similarly, “critter” is a ubiquitous word for an animal.

If that animal becomes unruly or starts knocking over your trash cans, it might classify as a “varmint.”

Let’s not leave out everyone’s favorite

animal, humans. When we refer to someone generically, we’re using a placeholder name.

From formal terms like Sir, Madam, Mr. and Ms. to colloquial phrases like bro, babe, honey or amigo, we use placeholder names instead of someone’s actual name.

For me, there’s a certain type of guy who will always use diminutive placeholder names instead of your real name: buddy, chief, sport, pal or my man. To the guy who refers to me in those terms, I’d like to say this: I am none of those things to you.

Placeholder names are everywhere, whether you live in Anytown, USA, or out in the sticks, just north of the boondocks.

Historic Cincinnati Music Hall. (Photos by Don Knebel)

Visiting historic Over-the-Rhine Commentary by Don Knebel As we continue exploring places within driving distance of Indianapolis, today we visit Over-the-Rhine in TRAVEL Cincinnati.

In the 1830s, German immigrants began settling north of the Miami and Erie Canal that marked the northern end of downtown Cincinnati. Natives, facetiously (and disparagingly), began calling the canal “the Rhine” and the area where the Germans lived “over the Rhine.” The Germans established numerous breweries using technology they brought from home, and Findlay Market was built in the neighborhood in 1852 using then-new ironworks technology. In 1863, Cincinnati acquired 4 acres in the area that had been cemeteries and established what became Washington Park. In 1878, a Victorian Gothic Revival music hall was built just west of the park over a pauper’s cemetery. The massive hall hosted the 1880 Democratic National Convention.

After the canal failed, it was covered by what is now Central Parkway, but the name “Over-the-Rhine,” or “OTR,” continued.

In the 1940s, descendants of the original OTR residents began leaving, and the area and its historic buildings began deteriorating. After major riots in 2001, significant local investments were made to revitalize the area. Today, the renovated (and supposedly haunted) Cincinnati Music Hall, a National Historic Landmark, is home to the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra and other major performing arts organizations. The restored Findlay Market, home to more than 50 vendors, is among the world’s greatest markets. The expanded Washington Park hosts concerts and sporting events. Re-

established breweries offer tastings and tours, and fashionable bars and restaurants have returned. Travel between OTR’s places of interest is facilitated by the Connector, a free streetcar line with 18 stops connecting OTR with downtown Cincinnati.

Not everyone is happy with OTR’s revitalization, which displaced people who once lived there. But for visitors to Cincinnati, OTR provides a chance to imagine what life was like in the 19th century.
