CCS not playing with recess

By Sara Baldwin news@currentincarmel.com Carmel Clay Schools has a history of high ratings and academic achievement.

To keep the focus on acaeducation demics, CCS requires only 15 minutes of recess as a district-wide policy. But some Carmel parents have expressed concern that elementary and grade school students need more unstructured play time in their school day.

Lisa Washburn, whose children attend Smoky Row Elementary, moved to Carmel in 2012. She was shocked to learn that her son would have only a 15-minute recess. That same year, she began attending school board meetings Washburn and rallying fellow parents to ask for a longer recess. She received pushback from the administration at the time.

“There is a growing body of research that shows that recess is important for (children’s) emotional and physical well-being and helps them process learning,” Washburn said.

The 15-minute recess is not unique to CCS, but it is short in comparison to neighboring school districts, such as Zionsville Community Schools and Westfield Washington Schools.

Both districts’ recess times vary by school, but the majority of students receive a 30-minute recess at the elementary level.

The Whole Child Superintendent Nicholas Wahl joined CCS in the fall of 2013. He brought with him the concept of Social Emotional Learning and the Whole Child approach. Wahl believes in bolstering academic success by focusing on the needs of the whole child, including student engagement and social awareness. The idea Wahl of lengthening unstructured play time is in line with Wahl’s methodology.

“When I came (to Carmel) there was, and still is, a very strong emphasis on student achievement and academic performance,” Wahl said. “We still have that same value structure. All I’ve done is ask that we look at

the whole child. The well-being component is so important to feeding into the student achievement.”

Wahl learned of Washburn’s previous campaign to extend recess and invited her to meet with him to discuss it. “(Wahl) is very interested in the benefits of unstructured play at ages even older than elementary,” Washburn said. “I think he’s bringing a really good balance.”

Under Wahl’s leadership, teachers are now allowed to allot extra recess time if they feel it is needed. CCS has implemented structured “brain breaks” throughout the day, which are short classroom breaks where students partake in a physical activity like Zumba. Some students also can receive “sensory breaks” with objects such as fidget cubes. Other unstructured activities include makerspaces that provide equipment like 3-D printers, student “choice time” after lunch and open gym.

Teacher empowerment vs. mandated change Wahl’s openness to alternative learning has resulted in district-wide change, but there has still not been a longer mandated recess, nor does he plan to impose one.

“I happen to embrace the concept of empowering people to make decisions in real time,” Wahl said. “The teachers are empowered. If they think that kids need extra recess, they do it.”

There is still a top-down initiative involved in the decision-making process. School principals have the power to initiate change.

According to parents who attended Smoky Row’s kindergarten orientation March 27, Principal Kim Barrett said that longer recess would be built into next year’s schedule but did not specify a length. Barrett did not respond to requests for information about the extension as of press time.

Changes could be coming. In 2018, the district will have an elementary program evaluation where parents, teachers and administrators will review best practices and make recommendations, with the potential to address unstructured play. Wahl would evaluate the committee recommendations and then present them to the school board to address policy change.

City might see slower speeds

Carmel Mayor Jim Brainard said there might be slower speeds throughout some of the city’s busitransportation est corridors, such as Range Line Road, 116th Street and 96th Street. But it’s not because of lowering the stated speed limits. It’s because of planned roundabouts and medians that naturally encourage motorists to reduce speeds.

“Those are traffic calming devices, and they’re good for pedestrians,” he said.

Brainard said trip times will decrease with drivers not waiting at stoplights. He said they’ll drive slower but get where they’re going faster.

Along Range Line Road, the city will spend $13.4 million on a transformation between Main Street and Executive Drive, which includes new roundabouts at Executive Drive, City Center Drive and 4th Street, and bike paths and a median to eliminate the middle lanes in some places. Brainard said there might be raised concrete for pedestrian crossings, similar to Clay Terrace, which will force motorists to slow down.

Brainard compared the work to a similar project in Colorado, where a “road diet” helped slow traffic, reduce accidents and increase sales tax in the business corridor.

Brainard cited City of Carmel statistics that showed in 1996 there were 216 accidents with injury for 170 road miles and 31,808 residents. That was before the first roundabout. More than two decades later, there were 215 accidents for 487 road miles and 91,374 residents in 2016. This represents a significant decrease in accidents per capita, he said, because of the use of roundabouts.

Drivers race for TherAplay

LIVING INDEPENDENTLY IS EVEN BETTER WHEN YOU HAVE A LITTLE HELP.

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Indy 500 driver Jay Howard marvels at the special mission of Children’s TherAplay, which uses the movement indy 500 of horses to help children with special needs.

“What an amazing facility,” Howard said.

“Seeing what these people do with the animals and how they interact with the kids is just amazing. We’re fortunate to have a facility like this in our back yard. People can tell you about (hippotherapy), but until you come here and see what they do, it’s mind-blowing.”

Hippotherapy is the use of horseback riding as a therapeutic method of improving coordination, balance and strength.

Howard, a Carmel resident, won the second Horsepower 500, an adaptive tricycle race with IndyCar drivers, May 9 at Children’s TherAplay in Carmel.

Howard was partnered with Bentley Kindley, a 5-year-old with cerebral palsy.

They were riding as Team A.J., named after a therapy dog.

Bentley has been coming to TherAplay once a week for two years.

Howard said Bentley was shy in the

beginning.

“But he started warming up and loved every minute of it, as did all the kids and drivers,” Howard said. “To see his face (after the win) was priceless. That’s why we do this. It’s all about the kids.”

The last time Howard was on a tricycle was at an Indiana Pacers game several years ago.

“I think we got lucky with a good lane,” Howard said of the win.

Twelve IndyCar drivers participated. Indy 500 rookie Spencer Pigot placed second in the race, and Conor Daly was third.

Living in a comfortable community with staff always on-hand to help you with the tasks of daily living can go a long way in reducing the amount of time you spend worrying. That’s why we’re here.

Summer reading program launched

By Renee Larr • news@currentincarmel.com The Carmel Clay Public Library’s Summer Reading Program kicked off May 22 and will run through Aug. 14. The library program is open to readers of all ages.

“This will be our third year of doing the program this way,” CCPL Communications Director Beth Jenneman said. “It’s one program for all ages rather than having a separate children, young adult and adult challenge.”

Individuals can sign up to read books or participate in other activities to receive points.

“The basic premise is not just reading but other learning activities, too. We hope it encourages families to do things together, whether that be reading a book, coming to a library program, attending a live theater performance or doing a science experiment. We have a list of 26 activities participants can choose from. Some of them can be repeated,” Jenneman said.

Each activity is assigned a point value, and participants log their activities online.

“You start accumulating points, and then you can buy prizes with those points. If you

choose to just read the whole summer and accumulate points for doing that you can do so,” Jenneman said. The program offers variety of prizes.

“We have everything from tattoos to baby bibs to things that are more adult, like a glasses repair kit and miniature tool kit,” Jenneman said. “We also have coupons from different places. When you register, for example, you’ll get a food coupon to a local restaurant.”

CCPL learns each year from the program and adjusts it to better serve participants.

“We’ve tweaked it a little each year, but the premise including families and doing more than just reading has been the same for the last three years.” Jenneman said.

Employee honored for service

By Renee Larr • news@currentincarmel.com David Butcher, an instructional assistant at Carmel Elementary School, was recently recognized by the achievement Carmel Clay School Board for 45 years of service with the district.

He has spent those years teaching a variety of grade levels and coaching several sports.

He began his career as a sixth-grade teacher in 1972 Butcher at Woodbrook Elementary, then moved to Clay Middle School from 1974 through the middle of the 2009-10 school year. After retiring, he returned to school as a substitute teacher and began his position at Carmel Elementary more than five years ago.

Butcher, 66, has always enjoyed working with students and said the time has passed quickly.

“I found that not only could I challenge the students, but they could challenge me to find different ways to approach the subject matter being presented,” he said. “I’ve really enjoyed seeing former students grow through the years. Having the same job for 45 years is definitely mind-boggling. The time’s passed so quickly it doesn’t seem like it’s been that long.

“I’ve been lucky enough to work with so many wonderful teachers, administrators and others in the Carmel system. It’s made working here a great experience.”

Butcher has even had former students reintroduce themselves when their children were going through Carmel schools. He has no plans to leave anytime soon, especially if his students have a say.

“At the service awards my kids told me that since I had already reached 45 years, going for another five to make it 50 shouldn’t be difficult,” Butcher said. “I’ve told people when they’ve asked that as long as I enjoy doing what I am doing and have good health, I plan to continue.”

Butcher is grateful for the acknowledgement of his service.

“Some of the best rewards have been the acknowledgements made by so many friends, former students and others,” he said. “It’s made me feel that I’ve had a successful career.”

Senior aims to be memorable

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Natalie Cotherman made a promise to herself after sitting through the Carmel High School graduations for her brother, Brandt (2010) and sister, graduation Taylor (2012).

“I knew if I was going to sit through another Carmel graduation, I was going to make it a little more interesting,” Cotherman said. “That was the goal, to make this graduation different than the ones I’ve been to before.”

It will be, as Cotherman will be giving a short speech at the commencement ceremony May 25 at the Indiana Farmers Coliseum at the Indiana State Fairgrounds.

Cotherman successfully auditioned and was selected May 16 by a committee of teachers.

“I was quite surprised, because a lot of the people that auditioned were overqualified for it,” Cotherman said. “I definitely felt intimidated a little by the competition, but I knew I had written a good speech and presented it to the best of my ability.”

She is one of three senior speakers, along with the senior class president and the distinguished graduate.

CMS receives special exhibit

By Renee Larr • news@currentincarmel.com

Now til May 31st

$500 OFF

Carmel Middle School has a unique new way for students to learn about the Bill of Rights. As part of the education 225th anniversary of the bill, Indiana Humanities has partnered with the National Archives and Records Administration to award 38 Hoosier organizations with a pop-up exhibit.

“It’s really kind of a nice thing we’ll be able to use not only to commemorate the 225th anniversary but as an ongoing display for our kids to be able to learn,” said Mark Matthews, eighth grade social studies teacher at CMS. The school has the display set up in the highest trafficked area at the school, the media center.

“It’s a neat interactive display. It’s things they wouldn’t necessarily be able to look up about the Bill of Rights,” Matthews said.

“In addition to the first 10 Amendments, it also explains how the 14th Amendment extends those rights to all citizens of the United States, which is not a natural connection that our students would make. It also talks about the amending process. It

gives them a few case studies where you can see how over time the Bill of Rights is still important to us.”

Indiana was originally only slated to receive 20 exhibits, but the demand was so high an exception was made.

“We wanted to make sure Indiana was well-represented in the places showing the exhibit. We let them know there was really strong interest here in Indiana and asked for more. They were really impressed,” said Leah Nahmias, director of programs and community engagement for Indiana Humanities.

Johnson is Teacher of the Month news@currentincarmel.com The April Teacher of the Month winner is Sandi Johnson, a thirdgrade teacher at education Prairie Trace Elementary. She was nominated by student Emma Graves.

As a reward, Emma won a pizza party for her class and Johson won a $50 Visa gift card from Teacher of the Month sponsor Edge Guys Heating & Cooling.

Here is Emma’s winning essay: The best teacher I’ve ever had is Mrs. Johnson, 3rd grade challenge teacher at Prairie Trace Elementary.

She is the best because when I feel like giving up she reminds me to try, try, try again. When I don’t understand a problem, she will help me through it. When I need advice, she gives it. She makes sure that I am on task. Mrs. Johnson reads books to the class while we visualize. She is very kind to me and puts encouraging posters up on the wall. Mrs. Johnson deserves teacher of the month because she is wonderful!

Community garden gives food, experience to Carmel kids

By Sara Baldwin news@currentincarmel.com

Six and a half years ago, Carmel Clay Schools repurposed vacant land behind Carmel Middle School into education a large community garden as a way of giving back to the community. The CCS Green Team, a parent-led organization to help standardize sustainability initiatives district-wide, helped bring the outdoor vision to life through volunteer work and student involvement.

After a year of amending the soil quality to bring it to organic standards, CCS began renting small plots to community members.

Now in its fifth growing season, the Plots to Plates Organic Community Garden has 98 community member plots as well as 320 square feet dedicated to growing produce for CMS school lunches and four plots dedicated to local food pantries. Plot holders are encouraged to donate excess produce to food pantries.

The Community Garden also hosts field

Chief Timothy Green reflects on 35 years at CPD

ABOUT CHIEF GREEN:

By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com In 1980, Timothy J. Green was a 20-year-old criminal justice major at IUPUI. He worked two or three nights a week for Nora Security, checking on residenccover story es and businesses.

One night he was driving near 106th Street and Ditch Road when he encountered something unusual.

“I saw a light in the sky that you usually don’t see, and I drove toward it and saw a Corvette that hit a tree and was on fire,” he said. “I did what anyone would do, and I pulled the man from the vehicle before the State Police arrived.”

Turns out that man was Jim Kittle, Jr., son of the former chair of the Indiana Republican Party and CEO of Kittles furniture stores.

Green, a security guard who was applying to the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Dept., was invited to a party at a house at Crooked Stick, where he was honored for saving the man’s life. He later received an award at an American Red Cross luncheon, and a Carmel police officer, Lee Dolan, urged him to apply for CPD. “If it wasn’t for him I might have ended up in the Indianapolis police department,” Green said.

In 1982, Green was sworn in as a CPD patrol officer at age 22. After 35 years of service with the same department, he will retire June 1. He’s served as chief of police for the past six years. Assistant Chief Jim Barlow, a 34-year-veteran, will take his place.

Green has taken on a variety of roles during his more than three decades in Carmel. As a young patrol officer, he worked on a string of residential burglaries that he vividly remembers.

“It was a frustrating time, because we were patrolling these areas hard, and these guys were breaking in when people were sleeping and taking things like jewelry,” he said. “So as a young officer, that puts you in hunt mode.”

Green spent two years in the Metro Drug Unit, from 1988 to 1990 doing undercover drug buys, among other things.

He worked out of Indianapolis as a CPD officer during a time when cocaine and crack cocaine were coming into the Midwest. He then moved to the Hamilton/Boone County Drug Task Force from 1990 to 1992 and later became commander of that task force for two years in 1993 and 1994.

He was then asked by then-Chief Roger Conn to serve as an assistant chief. He continued in that role under Chief Michael Fogerty.

Green became chief in 2011 when Fogerty retired.

Green has seen some tragic scenes in his career. He remembers the Allemenos murders in 1994. His drug task force was involved in the case and was there for the eventual arrests. But one of his saddest memories didn’t make many headlines.

• Graduate of North Central High School and graduated with a bachelor’s degree in law enforcement management from Calumet College.

• Graduate of the FBI National Academy in Quantico, Va. • Served six years as chief Green of police • Served 16 years as assistant chief • Served as commander of the Hamilton/ Boone County Drug Task Force and division commander for the Special Investigations Division

“Some of these things aren’t significant to many, but they’re significant to families, and it sticks with you,” he said.

In 1983, he was a young officer when he responded one winter afternoon to a man who was found lying on his back in his driveway with snow all around him. Green said it was apparent he died of a medical issue, likely a heart attack from exertion shoveling snow. He called for the coroner and waited at the scene only to see two women pull up in a car.

“I can tell when they got out they were like, ‘What are you doing there?’ and now you’re the one who has to tell her that her husband died,” he said. “I remember that like it was yesterday. You realize the importance of your role then. You have to talk to these people.”

Green said people often say they don’t think there’s much the Carmel Police Dept. has to do, but that’s because they compare it to Indianapolis with its higher crime rate.

“Fortunately, we don’t have much of that here,” he said.

“But we have a lot of things we deal with that don’t make the news. Domestic violence. Burglaries. These are important things in people’s lives. Even though we’re a great a community, we still have those issues.”

Green isn’t sure what he’ll do in retirement. He said his wife jokes that he can’t sit still, so he’ll end up doing something, whether it is another career opportunity or volunteer work. He said nobody has approached him about running for office.

“I came to a point where I said, ‘I want to experience another part of life,’” he said. “I look forward to the next phase and serving in a different role.”

NEW POLICE CHIEF

Jim Barlow will take over as police chief June 1. He has been assistant chief for the past six years and has spent 34 years with CPD. He served as commander of the SWAT team and Commander of Barlow the Operations, Special Investigations and Support Divisions.

Dietz

Horner

NEW ASSISTANT CHIEFS

• Major Aaron Dietz, who will become assistant chief of operations, has commanded the Special Investigations Division and the Hamilton/Boone County Drug Task Force since 2012.

• Major Jeff Horner, who will become assistant chief over administration, has served as a public information officer, as administrative lieutenant and is now major of the operations division.

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Decisions, decisions Commentary by Terry Anker It is inevitable. Eventually, we are asked to describe what we do. Sometimes, the question comes from a stranger sitting next to us on a plane. Sometimes, it comes from our growing children, just beginning to understand that we have full and complete lives that do not include them. Sometimes, it is a line on a government form.

Dentist. Cowboy. Astronaut. Each of these labels seems succinct enough. But do they really tell us, or anybody, what we do? An astronaut rides a rocket ship into space.

Right? But are they an adventurer, scientist or pilot? Can they be all?

Such is the problem when folks, innocently enough, say to the entrepreneur, “What, exactly, is it that you do?” Well, we build and manage companies. If, one might suppose, an inanimate object can be managed. Maybe said another way, we build and manage people. OK. Experience teaches that much of the entrepreneur’s capacity is consumed by decisions. Certainly, they sell, keep books, clean the floors and all manner of necessary tasks. Yet as a company grows, decision-making may be the singular and exclusive function that cannot be outsourced.

The power of choice, in many ways, is liberating. Directions are set and plans are laid.

Good. But the responsibility accompanying this authority can be burdensome. Are the decisions the right ones?.

With so much at stake, a bit of preparation is warranted, if not required. Then, where do we begin? How do we teach ourselves, our children and our colleagues to value positive choice? One assumes that to be successful, we will need to decide.

Opinion: Putin and the hybrid war Commentary by Alex Morozov The world has changed dramatically in the last few years. After the Russian occupation of Crimea, a bloody war in Eastern Ukraine with Russian-backed separatists, wars in Georgia and Syria, Russia’s close ties with Iran and terrorist organizations, the world is finally getting to see who Mr. Putin truly is.

There is a growing list of accusations and additional evidence tracing back to Putin’s regime. Relations between the U.S. and Russia deserve special attention.

Putin lives in a parallel reality where he considers Russia a superpower. Russia is desperate for a war. Even a small war (like in Ukraine) allows Putin to consolidate all power and shift people’s attention from internal problems to a great archenemy, the USA. Today in the U.S., the former USSR community is split in two camps: Putin worshipers, and people who love the U.S. and consider it home. Separation started many years ago, but the Ukrainian war was the last straw. This separation is clear today more than ever, and it is a great concern that here, in the U.S., we have a population of people who are constantly watching Russian propaganda, fake news and be-

coming brainwashed. The favorite topic of those programs is a Russian superiority and humiliation of the U.S. Those people are living among us in our neighborhoods but have a very different set of values than a typical American citizen. They worship Putin and are happy to follow his directions. Those people are secret Putin weapons — part of his hybrid war, soldiers of Putin and his regime.

Our country has allowed those people to come and settle here, and in many cases sponsored and helped them. Putin supporters enjoy the U.S. lifestyle, safety, using all benefits of our system but at the same time adoring Putin and his regime. Something is very wrong with this picture. So why is Putin propaganda allowed in the U.S.? The only way to win this hybrid war is to stop Putin propaganda in the U.S. It is a time to act and work together and stand as one nation under God. For more, visit CurrentinCarmel.com.

Alex Morozov is CEO of Swan Software Solutions, a company based in Central Indiana with three offices in Ukraine. He is founder of the Ukrainian Legion, a nonprofit raising funds to help the Ukrainian army.

This is not my Mother’s Day. No, I refuse to accept the second Sunday in May as the one day of the year that I am humor to be celebrated. I didn’t vote for it, I don’t like it and so I am calling for a revolution. Moms everywhere, let us unite in strength to reschedule our most precious of days to a time that makes some freakin’ sense. Like a Saturday. In July.

Seriously, how is a mother supposed to enjoy herself during one of the busiest months on the calendar? I spent most of May 14th at Warren Central High School suffering through the second day of a dance competition and attempting to grade a gazillion high school papers, only to come home to a house still destroyed from our Derby party and Doo packing his bags for a business trip. Happy Mother’s Day! We hope you enjoy hours of watching faux-lashed tiny tappers, reading Monica Lewinsky short answers, scrubbing borrowed chafing dishes and prepping for the joys of single-parenting!

No. Thank. You. Between end-of-school shenanigans, end-of-season tournaments and end-of-May race hoopla, no mother in Indiana has even a free second to take time for herself. That is why I propose July, perhaps the third Saturday. Shops and salons are all open, no one is graduating, the weather is almost guaranteed to be beautiful, and apart from those silly families stupid enough to get involved with baseball, kids’ activities are essentially nonexistent.

I wouldn’t even have to feel guilty about skipping church. I could spend an entire day doing whatever I wanted without sacrificing maternal, professional or domestic responsibilities.

Let’s make Mother’s Day great again!

Peace out.

There should be a law against having phone numbers that denote words instead of, well, numbers. Hello, it’s a humor phone number, not a phone word. There’s a national organization dedicated to educating people about a serious illness. Their phone number spells the name of the disease. That makes the number easy to remember, but impossible to dial on your cell phone if you are in the car and have to watch the road, balance your coffee and try to figure out where the PQRS button is.

While trying to dial this number, I almost ran into an 8733, which is “tree” in touchpad language, in case you haven’t mastered this concept yet. I got so mad I probably said a number I shouldn’t say in mixed company: 3687. Before you go running to your phone to figure this out or call the newspaper to complain that I said some dirty digits, I picked four numbers at random that don’t spell anything, but maybe I better go back and re-check. I wouldn’t want any four-number words in a family newspaper.

Suppose I wanted to have a number like I AM DICK. Apparently, those same num-

bers for I AM DICK could spell a lot of other words or letter combinations. Maybe someone else has beaten me to the punch.

I went to www.phonespelling.com, where you can see what words your phone number might spell. That’s where I discovered that 426-3425 (I AM DICK) has almost 10,000 additional letter combinations. Here are some they thought were unforgettable: GAN-E-IJC, BN-EH-AL or IC-MFG-BK. See how much simpler it is to remember seven letters than seven numbers?

If you are from the planet GAMDIA-5, you’d have snapped this number up eons ago to make it easier for fellow aliens to remember how to reach you.

If you enjoyed this column, don’t forget it was written by 3425. But you and I don’t have to be so formal. You can call me 3.

On the other hand, if you feel this is a prime example of how I can write the dumbest stuff and still get paid, I think it is fair to say: You’ve got my number.

Walk benefits widow, children

By Renee Larr • news@currentincarmel.com David Griffith didn’t work at DWA Healthcare Communications Group long, but he was there long enough in memoriam to become part of the family.

Griffith, 46, died in late February after battling kidney cancer. He started at Carmel-based DWA in May 2016 and received his diagnosis three months later.

“David came to work for us as an application architect in the technology services department. He went on leave shortly after he found out he had cancer,” said Anne Vest, DWA HR specialist. “It was then that we decided we wanted to start planning something to help raise funds for his wife and two children. They were going to have a lot of medical bills, so we decided to have a walk.”

The company’s Live Well Committee and DWA Cares Committee came together to plan the April event. They sold T-shirts and charged an entry fee for the walk to raise money for the Griffith family. “(The walk) was open to all of our employees as well as friends and family of David’s. We had about 100 participate in the

walk,” Vest said. “We were hoping David would be able to join us. Unfortunately, he passed away before the walk took place.”

The 1-mile walk around DWA’s campus raised nearly $10,000 for Griffith’s family.

Griffith’s wife, Michelle, spoke during the event.

“She told us David really did believe that we were a little different at DWA, and that this may be where he wanted to retire,” said Miranda Armie, DWA educational projects manager. “Even though he was with us for such a short period of time, we feel we are connected to David and his family.”

Marla Peebles is ready to put her stamp on her salon.

Peebles took over ownersalon ship of Bellisimo in Carmel in February. The salon has been rebranded as Society of Beauty.

“It took me forever to decide how I wanted to name it,” Peebles said. “We knew as soon as we saw it we’re creating this society within a society. I truly believe every single person has a movie star within them. It’s our job to find it and bring it out.

We’re creating an environment where we can do that.”

An open house at the salon, 12545 Old Meridian St., will be 5 to 8 p.m. May 25. Peebles took over the salon in February after purchasing it from Chuck Lazzara, owner of Ritz Charles.

“We’re having a lot of giveaways, like free haircuts for a year,” said Peebles, a Noblesville resident. “We’re doing different raffles through the night.”

Peebles said there will be different demonstrations.

“People can get their hair curled or braided, get a few lashes put on,” Peebles said.

“We’ll be doing a little makeup, just fun little areas to experience new services.”

Refreshments will include cupcakes and cocktails.

“We’ve just started to change a few things and revive it a little bit,” Peebles said.

Peebles was with David and Mary Salon for 20 years in Carmel. The past 2 1/2 years she worked independently at Salon Lofts in

Carmel.

Her daughter, Paige, who turns 24 May 24, moved from Salon Lofts with her.

“She is into the hand-painting coloring technique,” Peebles said. “She’s loving all of that. We knew when we were at Salon Lofts we were going to do our own salon (eventually).”

David and Mary Miller, who closed their Clay Terrace salon in July 2014, have had a spot at Bellisimo since the spring of 2016.

“When I took it over it was filled with independent contractors,” Peebles said.

“I brought in a team that is more my employees that are going to be commissioned employees. There are about six of us and six independent contractors.”

Peebles wants to eventually host seminars.

“I feel like I learn something every day from our clients, and hopefully they are learning from us in different ways,” Peebles said.

Brookfield Group expanding

Current in Carmel

www.currentincarmel.com

Ground broken for Jackson’s Grant Community and Recreation Center

By Chris Bavender news@currentincarmel.com The Brookfield Group, a company that specializes in helping small businesses customize technology systems, tech will spend $7 million to expand its Carmel headquarters and update its data center in downtown Indianapolis.

“As with all technology, if you stand still you get left behind. We knew we needed to make a commitment to invest in ourAbdallah selves if we want to continue to grow,” said Daniel Abdallah, chief technology officer for the Brookfield Group.

“We also want to provide the best solutions and services for our customers.”

The company, which has been in Carmel for 30 years, will bring 31 new jobs to the community in the next four years through the expansion. As an incentive, The Brookfield Group was offered up to $235,000 in conditional tax credits and up to $100,000 in training grants based on its plans for job creation by the Indiana Economic Development Corp.

“Carmel has been our home for quite awhile. We love the community and the vision for the city,” Abdallah said. “We want to see it grow and help build the technology community.”

Although the company’s footprint at its 11,000-square-foot headquarters will likely stay the same, it will invest in new technology for the space.

The Brookfield Group also plans to update its data center in downtown Indianapolis to accommodate growing demand for its services.

“We will be investing in the latest equipment for cloud computing and hosting,” Abdallah said. “This means new servers, networking equipment and partners to ensure we are providing the best technology to our customers.”

The company also has partnered with The Speak Easy and opened a 10,000-square-foot space April 14 in the same building as its headquarters, called Platform 24.

“We felt the Carmel community was missing a space for entrepreneurs,” Abdallah said. “With Speak Easy’s help we realized we could build the first co-working in Carmel and have it immediately integrate into the existing co-working community.”

Where’s Amy felt like a royal guest at the Ballet Theatre of Carmel’s performance of “Cinderella,” choreographed

by BTC Artistic Director Jane HachiyaWeiner, Frank Weiner and Sabrina Matheson. The cast was spectacular in bringing this timeless classic to life on stage. Lacey Marsh and guest artist Timothy June were brilliantly cast as Cinderella and Prince Charming and stole the hearts of the audience with their beautiful dancing and charm.

Stepmother Erica Lohman and her spoiled daughters, Emmanuelle and Isabelle Hendrickson, were spot-on with their wide range of comedic actions and emotions. Other notable characters were the Prince’s Lt. Gabriel Weiner and Fairy Godmother Natalie Heinemeyer, who were both stunning to watch. Bravo to everyone involved! Where’s Amy can’t wait to see you at the next BTC performance. (Photos by Amy Pauszek)

CSO names new director

2017 SUMMER CAMPS

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Janna Hymes had a good feeling about her guest conductor stint with the Carmel Symphony Orchestra. music “It felt natural to be in Carmel,” Hymes said. “The Palladium is unbelievable. We just connected and made wonderful music together. Everybody was fantastic. I loved the community and everyone I met with.”

Hymes was announced as the new music director May 12 of the Carmel Symphony Orchestra. She was the last of three guest conductors to audition for the full-time job, appearing April 8 with the CSO. The other finalists to replace David Bowden, whose contract was not renewed, were Kelly Corcoran and Ron Spigelman.

Hymes, who officially starts July 1, said the 2017-18 season was already programmed before she was hired.

“So this is going to be a transitional year where I learn a lot about the orchestra and the community,” she said.

Hymes said announcing goals now would be premature.

“I’ll have a sense by the end of the year, going into 2018 where we want to go,” Hymes

said. “I want to get my feet in there and get going. The most important thing is to have every concert be sensational. I got the impression the board and the orchestra is ready to really grow. I think they are ready to go to another level with another person, so that’s exciting. I’m looking forward to immersing myself in the community and learning more about the area.”

Hymes said she wants to learn what the community wants to hear.

Hymes has served as music director of Williamsburg (Va.) Symphony Orchestra since 2004. She previously was an associate conductor of the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra.

Hymes, whose home is in Maine, said the schedules of all three mesh well.

CSO opens the 2017-18 season Oct. 14.

Blueprint for Improvement: Indoor/outdoor living space addition Commentary by Larry Greene

After solutions:

Before Background Info: These owners needed a design/build solution for their home in Zionsville’s The Willows neighborhood to add both indoor and outdoor living space.

The goal was to design an addition with a seamless connection from their new indoor living space to their new outdoor living space.

1. The new structure’s proportions and materials were studied to ensure the new addition looked original to the home.

2. From the existing home, the basement was reworked to create an open foyer with a bridge to connect the two spaces on the main level. Two beautiful French doors from the new bridge allow convenient access to the new exterior patio. The new basement stair connects to the existing basement and to the new basement storage under the addition.

3. Large casement windows, a vaulted ceiling, perimeter accent lighting and durable porcelain tile finished off the living space to maximize daylight and inviting aesthetics.
