Carmel massage therapist fights back against MS, runs Mini Marathon

By Renee Larr • news@currentincarmel.com In her career as a massage therapist at the Indiana College of Sports and Medical Massage, Carmel resiachievement dent Elizabeth Bradshaw has relied on her body to help ease her clients’ pain. So, what happens when you’re diagnosed with a disease that can cause shaking, weakness and blurred vision? If you’re Bradshaw, you fight back hard enough to run a half marathon in personal-record time.

Bradshaw recounts her May 23, 2015, diagnoses with multiple sclerosis.

“Monday morning I went to the gym to do my usual routine. By Monday afternoon, I started to feel extreme fatigue as if my energy hit a brick wall. I have never felt that tired before, but I thought I just needed some rest,” she said. “Tuesday I was a little off balance, not to mention my fatigue came back. By Wednesday, I started running into things. Next thing you know, my vision started to go off a little bit.”

By that Saturday, Bradshaw had double vision and what she perceived to be vertigo.

Her mother took her to an immediate care facility, where she was told she needed to go to the emergency room.

“I got sent over to St.Vincent in Fishers. I had an EKG and an X-ray before falling into two seizures just as they were putting the IV in for the brain MRI,” Bradshaw said. “I go into a brain MRI and not even 15 minutes later the doctor comes running in. The doctor told me he was going to give me 1,000 milligrams of steroids and that my brain was highly inflamed.”

The doctor told Bradshaw he believed she had multiple sclerosis and they would be transporting her to the neurology unit of St.Vincent hospital on 86th Street. She was given several rounds of steroids to control her brain swelling.

Most people want to know how they got the disease. Not Bradshaw. She wanted to know what she could start doing to stay healthy.

“Instead of saying, ‘Woe is me’ and crying,

Pittman properties to be auctioned

my attitude was, ‘Well, what’s next? What do I do?’” she said. “He told me to keep staying positive, stay healthy, keep running and to focus on doing those things.”

And that is just what Bradshaw has done.

She began researching alternative methods of treating her disease rather than using medication and quickly realized diet plays a huge role. She also signed herself up to run the 2016 500 Festival Mini Marathon, a race she had previously run in 2014, to mark the May 23 one-year anniversary of the diagnosis.

Her no-quit attitude on the diagnosis helps Bradshaw get through each day and stay positive for the future.

“Not at any point have I ever felt sorry for myself,” she said. “Of course, I go through ups and downs and I have points where I’m really frustrated. But, no matter what, I just continue to fight.”

record run Bradshaw crossed the finish line of the 2016 500 Festival Mini Marathon in 2 hours, 16 seconds — easily beating her half marathon personal record from before her diagnosis.

“It was awesome. I beat my PR by 12 minutes,” Bradshaw said. “It was such a wonderful feeling.

The properties of a deceased heart surgeon in Carmel will be auctioned off after a dispute over the estate, which in total is valued real estate at $2.4 million.

All five of Dr. John Pittman’s children inherited equal shares of his estate after he died on Christmas Day 2014. A lawsuit filed by his daughter, Anne Kelton, is forcing the auction of the Pittman family residence and entertainment complex at 201 W. 106 St. in Carmel. His other children are sons, Steve, Mark, Chad and John Pittman.

No date has been set for the auction.

The Carmel residence and entertainment complex are adjacent to each other and are assessed at $513,300 and $628,600 respectively, according to the court filing. The Carmel property includes a classic mid-century home, party barn, tennis court, racquetball court, indoor basketball court, swimming pool and a parking lot. It is one of only a few estate properties available in the 106th St. to 116th St. corridor.

There also is a seven-acre log cabin residential property in Zionsville at 11675 E. Sycamore St. that has been assessed at $628,600, according to the court filing.

The dispute is only over residences owned by Dr. Pittman and not any other potential developments, such as a 62-acre mixed-use project planned by Steve for the southwest corner of U.S. 421 and Sycamore Street in Zionsville.

Kelton could not be reached for comment by the time of publication, but Mark, a co-executor of his father’s estate, noted that property owners hold the title as tenants-in-common and any one owner can bring a partition action. If the parties are not able to reach a resolution, then the court will order the property to be auctioned. In 2012, the Indiana Legislature changed the law to streamline the partition process.

“Our family has hosted hundreds of events at the compound during the past 20 years, including charitable events, political fundraisers and family reunions, and it is time for another family to enjoy the facilities,” Mark Pittman said in a statement.

Officials break ground on Park East garage

Range Line, 5th St. SE intersection to close

8 W Main St, Carmel, IN 46032, USA

By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com The City of Carmel and Pedcor teamed up for a groundbreaking May 12 for a parking garage to support further development of the Carmel City Center. development Part of “Phase II” of City Center, the privatepublic partnership led to Park East, a fivestory, $13.9 million parking garage that will have at least 725 spaces and approximately 28,000 square feet of commercial retail and office space.

When the new parking garage was originally proposed for a vote of the Carmel City Council in 2014, the plans were for approximately 620 spaces across four stories at a cost of up to $20 million.

Carmel Mayor Jim Brainard said the project came in at a cost of $11 million for the garage, so it was decided to increase the garage’s size.

“We had a budget coming out of the TIF (tax increment finance) funds for the parking garage, and we used a process allowed under state law that we (had) never used before called ‘design/build,’ which allows the contractor more say in the structural design of the project,” Brainard said. “It was, in essence, different firms competing for it, and the winner, the low bidder, came in substantially below budget. Millions below budget. So, we had an additional $2 million to add another 200-something parking spaces and add another story on it and still stay under budget.”

The debt ended up being more than $15 million in municipal bonds.

Carmel Redevelopment Commission members insisted there are many layers that protect taxpayers from any risk of debt associated, but some city councilors at the time expressed concerns about

The intersection of Range Line Road and 5th St. SE will be closed beginning on or after May 23 for a drainage improvement project. The closure will last a maximum of seven days. The posted detour route is 126th Street to 3rd Ave. SW to Main Street and then back to Range Line Road.

The project will include a new storm system connection to existing storm pipes below the intersection and reconstruction of the roadway pavement.

a special benefits tax used as protection to secure the bonds. The bonds were passed up to $20 million on a 4-3 vote in December 2014.

Two of those votes against the proposal were from members no longer on the council.

Park East is on west side of the Nash Building, 720 S. Range Line Rd., next to Graeter’s Ice Cream and Endeavor Boutique. Carmel City Center is a 1-million-square-foot, $300 million, mixed-use development at Range Line Road and City Center Drive.

Cancer patient can’t go home

By Ann Marie Shambaugh annmarie@youarecurrent.com Battling blood cancer is never easy. But the fight for Derek Fakehany of Carmel is complicated by the fact that when update he’s not in the hospital, he can’t go home.

Fakehany and his wife, Amy Van Ostrand, moved out of their home on 1st Ave. SE on April 16 after mold remediation expert Rachel Adams confirmed the presence of mold, which can be dangerous for a person with a weakened immune system. The mold is believed to be a result of a dozen severe floods in the last 13 years in the historic home, which was not known to flood before that.

The couple believes that the flooding is caused by outdated city infrastructure. The city has plans to rebuild pipes and add curbs in the area, with construction wrapping up by the fall.

“It is important to recognize that some properties have flooding issues that are not caused by street drainage alone,” stated Nancy Heck, Carmel’s director of community relations. “We have spent a great deal of time studying this particular homeowner’s issue with regard to flooding in the yard and are making some repairs to a nearby system that may have contributed to their issue.”

Van Ostrand said multiple consultants have told her that there is nothing else she can do to prevent flooding in her home and that an expansion of the city’s storm system is the only solution. This comes as Fakehany recently completed his seventh round of chemotherapy and is expected to soon undergo a bone marrow transplant.

“We clearly cannot spend thousands of dollars out of pocket to remediate mold when the basement is continuing to flood on a regular basis, and thus, everything hinges on the City of Carmel starting its project,” Van Ostrand stated.

As they wait for infrastructure repairs near their home, Fakehany and Van Ostrand have

moved into a temporary condo after staying with friends. They are still paying their mortgage and utilities at their uninhabitable home.

Fakehany and Van Ostrand are not the only ones to experience flooding in their home.

Other residents believe that failing infrastructure is to blame for their own flooding issues.

Bob McClure, who built his house in 1998 in Carmel Station, said he knows of several basements in his neighborhood needing repairs from flood damage and that he has had to replace four sump pumps in recent years.

“A few years ago, there were water main leaks in the neighborhood,” McClure said. “At that time, my own sump pump started to run and run to the point where I had to connect a pipe outside and direct the water to the street to prevent the basement from flooding.

Even after days and days of dry weather, the sump pump continued to dispense water.”

Heck said that Carmel will direct any resident in need of help to the township trustee for services, but it’s not the city’s job to maintain private property.

“In general, cities are responsible for city infrastructure only and not the portion that is owned by property owners,” Heck stated.

“Many times, older systems designed with standards in place at the time, are not adequate for today’s standards.”

Carmel gets 4 new liquor permits

By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com The Carmel City Council is considering an ordinance that regulates how four new, threeway liquor licenses can city council be used.

In March, Indiana lawmakers passed a provision to allow the Alcohol and Tobacco Commission to issue new permits for restaurants and bars to sell beer, wine and liquor by the glass in growing municipalities in Boone and Hamilton counties. The total number of active permits cannot exceed 24 and will cost $40,000 each for Brainard the communities of Whitestown, Lebanon, Zionsville, Westfield, Carmel and Fishers.

Carmel city officials are discussing a proposal to mandate that the four new permits in Carmel meet a variety of conditions: Permits would have to be for a business in one of the following four economic development areas: Carmel City Center, The Carmel Arts & Design District, Midtown or The Proscenium.

The businesses must be open a minimum of

six days and 30 hours a week.

Application for the permit shall contain the name of the business, its “theme,” type of dining, expected hours, and other information.

Carmel Mayor Jim Brainard would evaluate and consider the applications and make a recommendation to the council for approval. This process is different from the current system that gives the state the authority to review and approve permits.

Carmel City Councilor Bruce Kimball said the council is still learning about the new process, but the goal is to protect small businesses who can’t always afford to buy three-way licenses on Kimball the open market. Currently, permits are bought and sold like commodities and their value can increase based on how many are available at a given time. It’s not uncommon for restaurateurs to pay more than six figures for a permit, which can be resold to another business.

“We want to make sure they are used in the right areas, and of course the small businesses are the key to a vibrant downtown,” Kimball said.

By Heather Lusk news@currentincarmel.com Carmel was listed among the top 10 “Happiest Places in the Hooiser State,” according to the ranking website Zippia, which exists to help users reach their career aspirations.

To determine happiness seven criteria were evaluated, such as owning a home, having a job, a short commute and the poverty rate.

Granger was listed as the happiest city in Indiana with Carmel listed as number six. Other cities near Indianapolis on the list include Westfield, Zionsville, Fishers and Avon.

The list was created by the career website to help people decide between cities during their job search.

The site allows users to insert their degree, interests or career background and determine what jobs are available for their experience skill-set.

“We publish these location-based ranking articles in order to lend clarity to other types of questions that people might have but might not know

how to ask or might not know they actually have the question,” Zippia Marketing Associate John McLean said.

“If they were to select a city that we ranked as one of the happiest,” he said, “there’s a good chance you’ll be more satisfied with your job, you’ll be more friendly with your coworkers and it’s somewhere you’ll want to have a career as opposed to just another job.”

Happiness rankings for 35 states have been created with more states coming over the next few months.

There are plans to keep the lists refreshed as census data is updated.

“We definitely want to keep people not only informed but entertained as well,” McLean said. “It’s kind of a good reflection of the area if things are improving or getting worse.”

Dixon was one of several Indycar drivers and commentators to race in the inaugural Horsepower 500, a fundraiser for Children’s TherAplay. The Carmel clinic provides physical and occupational therapies on horseback for children with special needs.

Each driver raced on behalf of a TherAplay client and therapy horse on a bright red adaptive tricycle. After pedaling across the dirt arena, the drivers grabbed a carrot from their TherAplay teammate to carry in their mouth as they zoomed to the finish line.

Driver Charlie Kimball said the experience was “a little different” than maneuvering an IndyCar. “On an adaptive tricycle you have to provide your own horsepower, and I’m used to just putting my right foot down and having a good response from my Chevy engine,” Kimball said.

“It was a lot of fun.”

TherAplay Executive Director Hillary McCarley said that early estimates show that they Horsepower 500 raised about $25,000, which is enough to help pay for the cost of therapy not covered by insurance for nearly 200 treatments. The event also included the presentation of customized Amtryke adaptive tricycles

to three TherAplay clients.

“Every single one of the drivers has asked to come back again next year,” McCarley said. “We couldn’t be more pleased with the results.”

After winning the inaugural race – with a little bit of help from some of his friends, admittedly – Dixon said he enjoyed getting to

know his teammate, Garrett Imel, a 5-year-old from Anderson with cerebral palsy who visits TherAplay weekly for treatments.

“It was nice to sort of break way from the distractions you have during the month of May on the racing side,” he said. “It was cool to talk and chat and not care about anything else.”

College Wood honors custodian

By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com Morris Eubank always comes to work with a smile. He’s been the head custodian at College Wood Elementary in giving back Carmel for the past five years, and he often has to do the dirty jobs. Cleaning up messes. Emptying trash cans. Unclogging toilets.

But Eubank tries to be more than just a janitor. He tries to be a friend to the kids he encounters. He teases them and tells jokes.

His catchphrase to the young children is, “You’re grounded!”

On May 6, he walked into a crowded gymnasium to find hundreds of grade-schoolers yelling, “You’re grounded!” back at him in a surprise ceremony to honor Eubank.

“There are just never enough ways to say thank you to Mr. Morris,” Principal Kathy Olssen said. “He often works shorthanded, long hours. He just takes care of everybody like they’re his own.”

The event was the idea of some of the parents. Students helped put up signs saying they love Mr. Morris and cut out posters of his picture. He was given gift cards as a token of appreciation and students read poems and essays they wrote for him.

“It’s in the way that he makes you smile, keeps our school clean and shows you what it means to be a true superhero,” read Ava Roan, an 11-year-old fifth grader.

Eubank was given a six-inch, three-ring binder full of notes written by children.

“He’s just always happy, and when he’s happy it makes me happy,” Roan said.

Eubank said he loves working at the school, and it’s a ceremony like this that makes him even more excited to go to work every day.

“I feel appreciated,” he said. “It’s all about the little kids, working with them and enjoying being with them every day.”

The Carmel High School TechHOUNDS received the Chairman’s Award at the Indiana District Championship. (Submitted photo)

Robotics team wraps up season

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com For senior Vikas Maturi, the Carmel High School TechHOUNDS season was a memorable one. achievement The robotics team competed in the FIRST International Championship April 27 to 30 in St. Louis, which featured 600 teams.

“While given a tough schedule, we ended up ranking second in offensive power in our division (of eight divisions),” said Maturi, the student team lead. “However, due to some questionable calls, we unfortunately lost in the quarterfinals of our division and did not advance.”

Earlier in April, the TechHOUNDS competed at the IndianaFIRST State Championship in Kokomo.

The team, which finished third overall in the

qualifying portion, won its quarterfinal and semifinal matches, advancing to the state final. Maturi said the team lost in two matches to the opposing alliance and winners, finishing as one of three finalists.

The TechHOUNDS were selected to receive the Indiana District Championship Chairman’s Award. Maturi said the award is the most prestigious award in FIRST and recognizes the one team in Indiana that has had the greatest impact in inspiring technology leaders.

“Having never won this award before, we were beyond ecstatic to be recognized for all of our community outreach,” Maturi said. “It is truly an incredibly honor.”

Prior to the state competition, the TechHOUNDS won the Warren District Event and Queen City Regional in Cincinnati.

Cartoonist Campbell wins again

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Shortly after Current in Carmel launched in 2006, Tim Campbell decided to try his hand at an editorial cartoon. recognition His first cartoon? Having a little fun with Carmel’s roundabouts. Campbell had noticed Current was looking for submissions.

“I drew up a sketch and sent it to (executive vice president/general manager) Steve Greenberg in an Campbell email, and he sent me an email within 15 minutes and asked if I could do this all the time. That’s where it started,” Campbell said.

Now, nearly 10 years later, the 57-year-old Carmel resident won his third consecutive first-place award for an editorial cartoon in the Society of Professional Journalists Best in Indiana Journalism awards contest last month. It was the fifth time Campbell had won the contest. His winning cartoon was about the Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles accounting scandal. He also took third place on New England quarterback Tom Brady breaking his cellphone during the “deflategate” debacle.

“Any time I can make fun of the New England Patriots, those are ones that I like a lot,” Campbell said. “I enjoy doing cartoons on Indiana issues more than national issues.”

Campbell is a freelance illustrator, with his biggest client being the Children’s Museum of Indianapolis, and he teaches classes on fundamentals of design and color theory at Ivy Tech.

Campbell said he has received feedback on cartoons that are about area politicians.

“I’ve gotten responses that they are kind of flattered by it,” Campbell said. “Any publicity is good publicity — they kind of take that attitude about it.”

What deters girls from computing?

• Irrelevant curriculum and reliance on lecturing instead of hands-on projects • Teaching styles that discourage collaboration • Lack of opportunities to take risks and make mistakes

CHS student encourages other females to pursue computer science

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com After discovering she had a passion for computer science and coding, Carmel High School junior Gayatri Balasubramanian decided she wanted to encourage other cover story girls to explore the possibility of a future in a field typically dominated by men. So she founded the Carmel Girls Can Code Club that meets every other Monday at the school.

“There are not many girls in computer sciences. A lot are scared to enter the field,” she said. “They don’t think it’s a possibility because sometimes you get the vibe in computer science that guys don’t want you.”

After working with her computer science teacher, Margaret Winans, to gather other girls, Balasubramanian held the first Carmel Girls Can Code meeting in September. Approximately 12 girls are now a part of the club.

“Girls don’t try it on their own and don’t know if they’ll like it,” Balasubramanian said. “But if they never try something, they will never know if they will like it. We also want to open this up as a possibility for a path to follow.”

Balasubramanian plans to follow that path herself, as she said she hopes to study computer science and math in college.

According to the U.S. Dept. of Labor, the nation will have approximately 1.4 million computer-related job openings by 2020, but only approximately 30 percent of the positions can be filled with students graduating from U.S. schools with bachelor’s degrees in computing. The National Center for Women & Information Technology suggests girls “represent a valuable, mostly untapped talent pool” for the future.

“Another area that I have already begun to pursue, and will continue in the future, is inspiring girls to fearlessly try computer science, because of how underrepresented we are in these high-tech areas,” Balasubramanian said.

To achieve that goal, Balasubramanian and the other coding girls in the club visit Mohawk Trails Elementary and Carmel Middle School on a regular basis to teach younger kids how to code and use Scratch and Python, a programming language that allows users to create their own code.

At the middle school, the girls brought robots to connect to laptops to introduce coding to the students. The club also assisted with an innovation fair at Mohawk Trails Elementary so students can create and show off programs of their own. The girls in the club have paired up with younger students at the schools to serve in a mentorship role.

“My favorite part is probably seeing girls or kids in general discovering computer sciences,” Balasubramanian said.

Winans, a computer science teacher at CHS and the club’s sponsor, also encourages girls to pursue coding.

“After teaching computer science for 10 years, I have found that girls are just as gifted in coding as boys, and I believe having both perspectives working together leads to better program development,” Winans said. “With the projected increase in software jobs in the next few years, we definitely need women trained and able to take these positions. Also, there has been much research showing that women are often passionate in developing software that helps others or makes our world a better place to live. By sponsoring the Carmel Girls Can Code Club, I hope to affect as many girls as possible here at Carmel High School and the elementary and middle schools

Carpool lines reprise

FR O M T HE COMMUNITY

The prez race of all time?

Whatever else is said, this may be the most unique presidential election cycle in our lifetime. We have seen that the Republicans really are the party of the Big Tent. The tent got so big, in fact, those that thought they were in charge of the tent found themselves being pushed out the front flap.

The Republicans began with 17 contenders: one establishment type backed by big donors; one successful businesswoman; one brilliant, African-American surgeon; two sons of immigrants who are Latino; and then the senators and governors and a billionaire capitalist. Not the usual suspects. Republicans didn’t get any credit for diversity.

We have seen the silent majority give up on the powers that be - the “establishment” - and look for an outsider. As soon as a candidate gained establishment support, his numbers dropped like a stone.

Then there are the Democrats: an anointed nominee-to-be and an old Socialist, who was allowed to compete under the Democrats’ banner to create the illusion of a race.

But, suddenly, it became a real race as the harmless, old Socialist became a raging tiger with his own supporters that have also given up on their “establishment.”

The angst of the silent majority and the alienation of the young created the rise of outsider candidates. Now, America is seeing for the first time the arcane and convoluted convention rules put in place by the establishment just in case, this whole democracy thing got out of hand.

To paraphrase a famous actress, fasten your seatbelts; it’s going to be a bumpy ride.

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Economic engines of today Commentary by Terry Anker The Kentucky Derby is a horse race. The Indianapolis 500 is an auto race. The Super Bowl is a football game. While each of these is a true statement, it would be a gross mischaracterization to consider them to have been complete in their assessments of the various events. Individually, they have become their own spectaculars.

They are enormous economic engines – driving everything from local hotel room revenue to, at nearby homes, lawn parking opportunities. They bring scads of less- tangible bragging rights to the communities that welcome the proceedings. In some cases, almost non-stop media coverage delivers millions of dollars of attention to that city. We clean things up at home before we invite company in for a party.

Yet, as the frenzy reaches its zenith, have we lost track of the original objective? Or in adding half-time shows, hat-parades and snake-pit balls, are we simply expanding the

reach to include more members of our communities who might otherwise be uninspired by a sporting event? Some would argue the competing objectives incompatible – they grumble about gadflies who are only interested in celebrity sightings and wouldn’t know a carburetor from a filly. Maybe they have a point. But, can’t we allow for both perspectives to hold sway? Can’t we hope for the brackish water between the points of view that will help us find better understanding?

As we Hoosiers prepare to host the 100th running of the Indianapolis 500, consider attending a new event. Consider participating in a different way. If cars don’t interest, – this year, learn one thing about the machines. And if snake pits sound unappealing, well, buy an anti-venom.

Q U O T E O F T HE WEEK Perfection is not attainable, but if we chase perfection, we can catch excellence.

– Vince Lombardi

As the school year draws to a close, let us re-visit one last parenting skill that some of you still have yet to master, humor even though you’ve had 10, long months of practice. I’m speaking, obviously, of the carpool line. Please take note. My already fragile sanity can’t withstand any more parking-lot shenanigans.

1. Recognize that there is a carpool line.

Every time, for every event. If you don’t see it immediately upon arrival, that’s because you are the first, and as such, will be despised by everyone else. Find the pick-up zone, pull through and turn off the engine! Your gas-guzzling Suburban poisons my kid’s air when you idle for 20 minutes.

2. For the normal parent who arrives within a reasonable window of time, simply go to the end of the line. Avoid blocking parked cars, entrances and exits, and oncoming traffic. (I’ve actually seen this happen.) Occasionally you’ll be required to execute a U-turn to join in; please do so with competence.

3. Pay attention! These things can move like lightening once kids emerge. You need to be ready to pull forward at a moment’s notice. If you’re texting your bestie about brunch and miss your cue, I will honk at you.

4. Have your doors unlocked and preferably open so as to expedite loading.

Instruct your passengers to dive in as soon as you slow down. Speed is important at this juncture; there’s no time for stowing backpacks or stopping. Rock and roll, people!

5. Don’t start a conversation with another adult out your window! I sat behind someone the other day for two minutes while she yakked it up (and her offspring struggled to get the trunk open. See No. 4). My welltrained daughter was standing by at the ready, but Social Butterfly was blocking our exit.

Carpool lines are a necessary evil, but they don’t have to be a nightmare. Just follow the rules! Peace out.

The collaboration boasts a partnership between 10 Little Clinics and more than 16,000 healthcare professionals from St.Vincent.

St.Vincent is a member of Ascension, the nation’s largest Catholic and not-for-profit health system. The Little Clinic retail health clinics operate within select Kroger stores throughout the nation.

A joint statement released from St.Vincent and The Little Clinic said whether someone needs the convenience of The Little Clinic for a minor illness or a cardiologist for a heart condition, The Little Clinic and St.Vincent will work together to help make those connections easier within the community.

“This type of partnership and relationship allows us to move further into the neighborhoods and fill all of those care gaps that we experience as healthcare costs are rising,” St.Vincent CEO Jonathan Nalli said at the official announce-

ment. “We appreciate the work that The Little Clinic has done because we are advancing how we reach out to consumers, how we connect with them to develop those relationships ...

With great relationships in healthcare, the people will remain closer to home for all of their necessary care.”

Both are open from 8:30 a.m. to 8 p.m. Monday through Friday, 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. Saturday and 10:30 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Meal delivery biz launches

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com For some busy families, Stephanie Marshall might seem like an angel.

That’s because her business, food Slice of Heaven Delivered, supplies a full array of meals.

“I have a whole menu of different items for a lot of different diets and needs,” said Marshall, who lives on the outskirts of Zionsville. “I prepare them and deliver them with instructions on how they should bake them or grill them.”

Most of Marshall’s meals are prepared so families can Marshall bake them at home in the oven. Some meals, like her pulled pork, are already cooked when delivered.

Marshall, who started the business in early April, is in the process of getting the proper food handling permits. She said she expects to have those soon and will start working at Carmel’s Kitchen, a commercial kitchen in Carmel.

Once she starts at Carmel’s Kitchen, she plans to set up a website. Her Facebook page is under Slice of Heaven Delivered. She estimates 90 percent of her clients are from Carmel.

Marshall, 44, has long delivered meals to

friends in need.

“If I found out someone just had a baby, or they just got home from the hospital, I would just make an extra meal and deliver it to people’s houses out of love,” said Marshall.

“My husband (Chuck) one day said, ‘Why don’t you turn this into a real-life business?’ I see a lot of moms and dads who are busy and don’t have time to cook a meal. I like to see them enjoy their families like I got to do when I was (a stay-at-home mom).”

For some in Carmel, the word “kombucha� might not sound like anything familiar.

But Nick Murdick, founder business of Presto Kombucha, a company on Main Street in Carmel, aims to educate people about the fermented tea. This drink is created using a symbiotic colony of bacteria and yeast. Even though it is fermented, Murdick’s products do no contain alcohol.

Murdick, 38, drank kombucha for the first time in 2008 while attending an International Horn Society symposium in Denver. He immediately began brewing his own. “Drinking kombucha for the first time was a life-changing experience for me,� he said. “I realized that I had discovered a wonderful alternative for soda. I was fascinated with the process of brewing kombucha, and I began researching recipes and methods of production.�

While kombucha producers such as Murdick are prohibited from using health claims to promote the product, kombucha fans say the beverage can help with a variety of illnesses, or, at the very least, aid in one’s digestive and immune systems.

As part of his doctoral studies at Ball State University, Murdick prepared a business plan and researched the beverage industry extensively. He travelled around the United States and several cities in Europe and tested multiple makes and brands of commercially produced kombucha. Presto Kombucha cold steeps its ingredients using commercial cold press juicers to press raw juices. The fermentation process for the kombucha takes between 10 and 30 days, and Murdick kegs several hundred gallons of product at a time.

Bottle sales for Presto Kombucha began in April 2015, and it is now available across the state in more than a dozen kombucha bars, specialty markets and grocery stories. It’s available at the Market District in Carmel and Moody’s Butcher Shop in Zionsville. The prod-

uct is also available for delivery through Green Bean Delivery, a grocery delivery service.

Flavors include ginger, orange, pineapple orange, cranberry raspberry, lavender hops, apple jasmine, cherry vanilla, blueberry oolong, espresso and more.

Currently, Presto Kombucha is being produced out of Carmel’s Kitchen, a company founded by Mark and Stephanie Lewis that allows food creators to rent commercial kitchen/food production space.

Murdick works alongside his girlfriend, Irina Mueller, and together, their goal is to sell the product worldwide. More than 6,000 bottles have been produced so far. “The response to Presto Kombucha has been incredible, and producing Presto Kombucha commercially is a dream come true,�

Murdick said. “I am fortunate that so many people are enjoying Presto Kombucha.�

Andrew Lloyd Webber’s musical has always been one of my favorites because it is mysterious and magical, as a story of love, adventure and betrayal.

Carmel actress Bonnett to play Belle

By Zach Dunkin • editorial@youarecurrent.com

“Then, I thought, ‘Oh, I can do that. She came from where I came from,’” recalled Bonnett (pronounced bon-NAY), a 2009 CHS graduate.

a theatrical person at various stages of her life. “Belle’s vulnerability in that sense is what makes her so relatable to so many audiences.”

Bonnett’s favorite past roles include Jo in “Little Women,” Cinderella in “Into the Woods” and Janet van de Graat in “The Drowsy Chaperone,” all three at Civic Theatre. Obviously, she loves playing strong, female characters.

“Those characters are so important because they are great role models for young girls. For example, Belle has greater aspirations than just romance. It’s important for a girl to see herself in another character, and young girls can see and go, ‘Oh, I can do that,’” she said.

‘Friends’ gala set for May 20

Friends Helping Friends, Inc. will hold its second fundraising gala at 7 p.m. May 20 at the Ritz Charles, 12156 N. Meridian event St., Carmel.

“Every year when we have a gala, we partner with an organization or we help an individual,” said Blair Clark, creator of Friends Helping Friends, Inc. “Although we are reassigning some funds for Friends Helping Friends, we also want to be about our mission helping an organization or individual, too.

This time, we are partnering with the Indiana Children’s Wish Fund and sponsoring Avery Harris.”

Harris has cystic fibrosis and her wish is to go to Disney Land. Last year, Friends Helping Friends, Inc. donated approximately $8,000 for TJ Durbin, a severely autistic boy, to purchase a service dog. Whereas before, when Durbin would run out into the street and his parents would have to chase after him, the dog, Sunny, keeps Durbin tethered and also sleeps next to the boy.

“It has not only freed up TJ to be more responsive, but the parents have a little more flexibility,” Clark said. “They’re able to go through their business throughout the day.”

Last year, Friends Helping Friends, Inc. raised enough money to allow TJ Durbin to get a service dog, Sunny. (Submitted photo)

Clark said the goal for this year’s gala is to raise $10,000 to $15,000. It would cost approximately $4,000 to send Harris and her family to Disney Land.

There will be food, an open bar, dancing, French horn playing by Carmel Mayor Jim Brainard, and more.

“He’s always been very supportive,” Clark said of Brainard.

Tickets cost $60 each, and tables cost $500. Those wanting to purchase a ticket can email Clark at blairclark1@gmail.com or call 317-201-8640.

‘Bat Boy’ now on stage at TOTS

By Zach Dunkin • editorial@youarecurrent.com With directorship of “Miss Gulch Returns,” “Holy Ficus,” “The Great Bike Race” and “The Rocky Horror Picture Show” theater on his résumé, it’s no surprise director Zack Neiditch is taking on “Bat Boy: The Musical,” running through May 21 at Theatre on the Square.

“I love this musical,” Neiditch said. “It’s wellmade and fast and funny, and I love its sense humor. So much of my own work tends to be stuff that; on the surface, it can seem a little silly or campy, but once you crack into it, you see something more to it.”

In the musical’s book, written by Keythe Farley and Brian Flemming in 1997, Bat Boy (played by Justin Klein) is discovered in a cave and taken to the town veterinarian, Dr. Parker (Dave Ruark). He eventually is accepted as a member of the Parker family and taught to act like a “normal” boy by the vet’s wife, Meredith (Mindy Morton), and teenage daughter, Shelley (Devan Mathias). Shelley and Bat Boy fall in love, run away together and have a blissful coupling in the woods. But their happiness is shattered when Meredith arrives and reveals a secret that – spoiler alert – she’s Bat Boy’s mother.

“I think people accept this show because

it’s so funny,” Neiditch said. “What gets people into the theater is, like, ‘Really? A musical about Bat Boy? Okay, let’s try it.’ And then once they’re in for the ride, they’re smacked with catchy song after song and then left with an actual emotional journey at the end.”

The musical originally was written for a cast of 10 people to play all 22 roles. During its first run at TOTS, the traditional casting is followed, with the four Parkers and the other six actors managing everything else.

“So, the men wear dresses and the ladies don beards, and there’s just nothing better,” Nieditch said.

Bartenders reunite at Prime 47

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com Catherine Federspiel made the switch from Ruth’s Chris Steak House – then at 96th Street and Keystone Parkway – dining three years ago. She settled into Prime 47 in Carmel and all was well, but she was missing her work partner, Bobby Hodge, who remained at Ruth’s Chris Steak House for another three years.

After the steakhouse moved into the Ironworks development at 86th Street and Keystone Parkway, Hodge decided to follow his long-time friend over to Prime 47 last month.

Hodge served at Ruth’s Chris for just shy of 17 years, but he admitted the transition to Prime 47 was easy. He chalked that up to Federspiel.

“My wife calls Cat my work wife,” he said, laughing. “One of the big reasons I came here is because I’m with somebody who I know has got my back.”

“We work really well together,” Federspiel added. “People from the past have come over here now because, not only am I here, but he’s here, too. Somebody said (having us both here) was like Christmas.”

The pair normally works together Thursday through Saturday evenings. They both admit that Prime 47 is similar to a “Cheers”-type bar.

“We care about what happens in our guests’ families and their lives,” Federspiel said. “We send them cards and birthday stuff.”

“We get to know the guest; we talk to them about them,” Hodge added. “We let them in our lives, too. It’s more of a family.”

Color looks genius in spring Commentary by Randy Sorrell I love driving by this project! It has such a welcoming feel, is packed with color and has a compelling sense outdoor living about it. To us, it has a wonderful vibe.

Imagine that our nicely custom homes all have relatively the same entry with a standard drive, benign sidewalk that lethargically moves us to the front door. Only to be met with a standard size concrete stoop. Part of the package, I guess. Occasionally we are met with something more unique and inspiring.

But generally that’s not the case. Anything highly compelling in your neighborhood?

We’ve featured this project previously, but not with early spring pictures showcasing the

variegated iris transplants contrasted against the highly textured blue spruce globosa shrub, stately boxwood and sprouting sweetbay magnolia. Amazing what thoughtful landscaping can accomplish. It only fuels the intrigue.

Boldly, Mr. D painted the door a vibrant red for a stroke of color … and genius. That, coupled with colorful cushions and the custom steel handrail, elevates the space to a favorite gathering space for the homeowners and happy neighbors.

Travertine The real impact of the space, however, is the slightly enlarged patio surface that we transitioned to travertine. It’s such a luxurious and rich feel. You can actually feel the historic quality under your feet. Travertine is a form of limestone, is very durable and was used widely in ancient historical buildings, including the Coliseum in Rome. It lasts and we love it.

Creating a cool vibe is such a terrific conversation to explore. How do we create it?

How do you want your space to feel? What are the strategies involved? The answers are many and often carry back to your own preferences. It becomes our privilege and opportunity to marry those together.

Once you experience it … you must have it!

Farmers market 101 Commentary by Beverly Randolph It’s farmers market time, which means fresh vegetables, fruits, jams and all kinds of savory delights are competetiquette ing for our senses. Below are tips to make your sensory overload an enjoyable experience both for you as the customer and for hard working vendors.

Build relationships • The early bird catches the worm, as the best selection is available, and vendors are at their peak to engage in conversation, especially if you have an in-depth question or comment.

• Get to know your farmers and vendors; they are eager to share tips on handling, storage, recipes, etc.

• Do you have a favorite vendor? Buy him/ her a coffee or other beverage. Some have traveled far distances and by 11 a.m., they are exhausted.

Be respectful • Look with your eyes and don’t touch. The vendor has selected his best inventory; just ask which he recommends. If touching is approved, do so with sanitized hands for safe food handling. Tip: don’t

invert jelly as it breaks down and softens to the point where it won’t hold its set.

• “Please,” “thank you” and “excuse me” are always appreciated.

• Most will have a prominent sign for samples. If not, ask as each vendor has his own regulations based on food type and comfort level. Limit your samples.

• Be mindful of the space around you and/ or your group. Large groups take a lot of space. For chatting, go to an area where traffic isn’t blocked.

• Some vendors are required to take refuse. Be mindful of what you place in theirs.

• Use waiting time to pull out correct change, have your bag ready and make transactions short.

• Teach children these tips prior, and ensure they stay close to you for safety.

The beauty of blending Commentary by Stehpanie Sullivan Although we have known each other since we were teenagers, my husband and I have only been married for three years. family We lost each other in college, and when we found each other again, we brought not only ourselves into the new relationship, but two children apiece.

Blended families have unique challenges, but they can be incredibly beautiful. I look around the raucous dinner table at our big brood and I marvel that we are here. Six very different people, some who chose one another, some who didn’t, are more than coexisting.

We’re thriving.

When my husband and I started planning our wedding, my immediate thought was to slip away on a romantic vacation and tie the knot in a private ceremony. At some point I realized that in doing so, I’d be satisfying our needs, but not those of our four kids. They’d seen a lot of change in their young lives, and I wanted them to know that not only were we creating a marriage that day, we were creating a family.

We reworked our wedding plans to dedicate a portion of the ceremony to the kids, and

rather than leave right away for a honeymoon, we loaded up the kids and headed out on a “family-moon.” Moonlit walks and fine dining gave way to putt-putt and ice cream cones.

Our fourth anniversary is just around the corner, and as we have done every year since the wedding, we’ll celebrate with a family vacation.

Prague’s deadly windows Commentary by Don Knebel Prague, the capital of the Czech Republic, is one of the most beautiful and peaceful cities travel in modern Europe.

Ironically, the city’s name has long been associated with a brutal way of settling religious scores.

Prague was founded in the ninth century on a hill that now includes the largest castle complex in the world. In approximately 1402, Jan Hus, a Prague priest, began preaching against what he saw as the excesses of the Roman Catholic Church. After Catholics burned Hus at the stake for heresy in 1415, his “Hussite” followers continued advocating for religious reforms. In 1419, a group of Hussites marched to Prague’s New Town Hall, which had been built southeast of the original city by Charles IV, the King of Bohemia. The marchers demanded the release of sympathizers being held prisoner by local officials. When someone inside threw a rock, the Hussites stormed the building and New Town Hall in Prague. (Photo by Don Knebel) tossed the chief magistrate and out the window. The second defenestration his council out a tower window, killing seven led to the Thirty Years’ War that eventually council members.

In 1618, spiritual descendants of these early enveloped much of Europe.

The term “defenestration of Prague” came to com. describe these acts of flinging religious rivals

The Department's jurisdiction under the Flood Control Act, IC 14-28-1, is limited to a project in the floodway of a waterway that includes, but is not limited to, rivers, streams, ditches, and creeks. To be approvable a project must demonstrate that the project will not: (a) adversely affect the efficiency of or unduly restrict the capacity of the floodway, (b) constitute an unreasonable hazard to the safety of life or property; defined as, the project will not result in either of the following during the regulatory flood: (1) the loss of human life, (2) damage to public or private property to which the applicant has neither ownership nor a flood easement; (c) result in unreasonably detrimental effects upon fish, wildlife or botanical resources.

Additionally, the Department must consider the cumulative effects of the above items.

After an approval, denial, or termination is issued by the Department, you may appeal the Department action by requesting an administrative review by the Natural Resources Commission under IC 4-21.5 and 312 IAC 3-1. The appeal request should be addressed to: Division of Hearings Natural Resources Commission Indiana Government Center North, Room N501A 100 North Senate Avenue Indianapolis, IN 46204 Telephone: (317) 232-4699
