Friends, colleagues remember Brizzi

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com Lewis And Wilkins law firm managing partner Paul Mullin describes his late colleague and friend Carl IN MEMORIAM Brizzi as someone who truly enjoyed life.

Brizzi, 53, died after suffering a stroke in the late evening of Jan. 5. Brizzi was a Geist resident and former Marion County prosecutor who worked with Lewis And Wilkins at the time of his death. The firm has offices in Indianapolis and Fishers.

Mullin said Brizzi originally went to the hospital for a rapid heartbeat, where he later died of a stroke.

An Indianapolis resident, Mullin was friends with Brizzi for 20 years. He said Brizzi’s death came as a shock.

“It’s been absolutely jarring,” Mullin said.

“He has so many friends and so many connections. He was so liked by so many people. I think everybody feels the same way.

He was a healthy, active 53-year-old man, and I was just emailing him on (Jan. 3), and here we are.”

“LARGER-THAN-LIFE FIGURE” Mullin said the “mold was broken when Carl was made.” He said Brizzi was an inspiration to many who knew him, especially the younger employees at the office.

“Carl was such a larger-than-life figure,” Mullin said. “In our office, at our law firm, Carl Brizzi brought an attitude of idealism to the office. It’s my opinion that in any profession, including the legal professional, people start to become cynical as the years go on. It’s easy to become cynical. We all start off with this idealism that, after time, fades away. But it didn’t fade away for Carl.

The younger employees gravitated toward him because of his ongoing idealism that we can live in a great world. Young people wanted to learn from him.”

Mullin said Brizzi grew up with a single mother and put himself through college and law school by waiting tables.

“He did not dwell on where he started from, which is at the bottom,” Mullin said.

Outside of work, Mullin said Brizzi thoroughly enjoyed life. One of his joys was cooking for family and friends.

“I don’t think many people know Carl was an incredible chef,” Mullin said. “I was very fortunate to have a friend who actually enjoyed going through all the steps of treating his friends to incredible meals at his house on his Big Green Egg (a ceramic grill). We used to say Carl didn’t like going to steak-

houses because he was convinced he could always make it better at his house.”

Mullin also said Brizzi made friends easily.

“So many people only know him from TV or political commercials or his time as the prosecutor, but the Carl Brizzi I knew was the kind of guy who never met a stranger,” Mullin said. “He was always ready, willing and able to chat up anyone he was with.

People loved talking to him. Every time I got into an Uber with Carl Brizzi, by the time we got to our destination, him and the driver were best friends.”

MADE AN IMPACT Mario Massillamany, who worked as general counsel and communications director under Brizzi during his time as Marion County prosecutor, said Brizzi made a significant impact on the law profession in multiple ways, including helping others succeed.

Massillamany, who now is a managing partner at Massillamany Jeter and Carson in Fishers, said Brizzi was a very “charismatic individual.”

“Carl was less of a manager of the office and more of a motivator,” Massillamany said. “Not only did Carl make sure we received proper training, but he also made sure we received proper mentoring and motivation to try to be the best we could be. He tried to make it not just about having a job or doing a job but rather instilling we were the last line of defense in making sure Marion County was protected.”

Massillamany also said Brizzi was instrumental in helping minority and female employees succeed in his office.

Brizzi was a graduate of North Central High School. He earned his undergraduate degree from Indiana University and earned his law degree at Valparaiso University. He was elected Marion County prosecutor in 2003 and served two terms. His law license was suspended for 30 days in May 2017 after the Indiana Supreme Court Disciplinary Commission found he engaged in professional misconduct.

In 2018, Brizzi began working with Lewis And Wilkins. He specialized in civil litigation, personal injury law and business litigation.

Marion County Superior Court Judge Tim Oakes also said Brizzi was a fun person.

“He was genuine. He was not ever pretending to be someone he was not,” Oakes said. “You immediately enjoyed being around him. Carl had the unique thing where his public perception was not as good as who he was as a person. He was a better person than most. He was fun. He was a loyal friend.”

Oakes said during the investigation preceding Brizzi’s law license suspension, Brizzi taught himself how to play guitar.

“I’ve been to a lot of funerals, and Carl is one of those people who will leave a huge void in peoples’ lives,” Oakes said. “People who only knew Carl in the public eye were really missing the best part of him.”

Brizzi leaves behind his wife, Kim, six children and one grandchild.

Kim Brizzi declined an interview with Current but issued the following statement: “Carl’s heart was three sizes too big.

He felt everything more: successes, challenges, grief and joy. What defines us as people is our response. Carl’s was honesty, grace, and ultimately love. I could not imagine a better example for our children. He challenged everyone he encountered, but especially them, to think more, ask more questions, and to be empathetic above all else. His legacy will be them carrying that into the world, each with an amazing and unique perspective.

“My heart is broken in a way I never imagined possible. But the outpouring of support and shared stories of Carl’s generosity, compassion and empathy are healing to me and our children, thank you. Carl changed so many people’s lives — but none more than mine. I could not be prouder to have been his wife.”

Runner forms national championship team

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Mike Cole and John Poray have been talking about forming a 40-and-older running team for a couple of ATHLETICS years.

“We were waiting until John and Jesse Davis turned 40 and hoping I would still be running decently strong and be able to help the team,” said Cole, a 46-year-old Zionsville resident.

The Indiana Elite Athletic Club won the USA Track and Field National Club Cross Country Championships 40-and-over men’s masters 10K division Dec. 11 in Tallahassee, Fla. “We’re very proud and happy. One of the best running moments of my life, and I’ve had a lot of them, (was) to put together a team to win a national title. (It) is pretty special,” Cole said.

Davis, an Indianapolis resident, was the race winner in 32 minutes, 55.1 seconds.

“Jesse is a two-time Olympic qualifier in the marathon, and he’s an all-around good runner,” said Cole, who competed for Ball State University’s cross country and track

Poray competed in cross country and track for the University of Indianapolis while Davis ran at Ball State and the University of Southern Indiana. Burns, who competed for Indiana University, was the 2005 Big Ten champion in the steeplechase.

Ritter, a former Florida State competitor, is the oldest runner at 47.

“This is our first national championship we went to together,” Cole said. “USA Track and Field has several masters national championships. We have high hopes for winning all we go to.”

Cole said there are championships in 5K, 1 mile, 10 mile and half-marathon.

The 5K road championships are in February.

Comic Book in a Day set for Jan. 22

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com

Dr. Heather Williams understands the importance of how her patients use their hands, and strives to provide quality, individualized care to everyone who enters her office. Whether a patient is suffering from trigger finger, arthritis, carpal tunnel or more—Dr. Williams provides expert treatment to get her patients back to the active lifestyles they love.

“I love going to all my kids’ soccer games and cheering them on.”

To schedule an appointment with Dr. Williams, call 317.770.3777 or visit riverview.org.

Nickel Plate Arts Executive Director Aili McGill recognizes her good fortune of having Stuart Sayger again as the EVENT headliner for Comic Book in a Day. “He’s an internationally recognized comic book artist,” McGill said. “His breakout piece was Lego ‘Bionicle.’ He’s been working on covers for ‘Kiss,’ ‘Army of Darkness’ and ‘Evil Ernie.’ We’re very lucky he lives here in Noblesville and has been so supportive of Nickel Plate Arts and so interested in building a community of people who love comic book art here.”

McGill said the Comic Book in a Day program was developed in conjunction with Sayger. The ninth Comic Book in a Day, presented by Noblesville-based Nickel Plate Arts, is scheduled from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Jan. 22 at the Ignite Art Studio in the Hamilton East Public Library, 5 Municipal Dr., Fishers. Admission is free. Participation in the Comic Book Challenge costs $25 and requires advance registration.

The challenge gives participants the opportunity to create their own comic book in the course of a day.

Three free workshop sessions are set from 6:30 to 7:30 p.m. Jan. 13, 18 and 20 at Ignite Art Studio. Victor Dandridge, a writer and publisher of comics, and Sayger are scheduled to assist at the workshops.

“Those serve as warmups or introductions for people who might be a little nervous of creating a comic book from scratch or haven’t drawn in a while,” McGill said. “If you can’t be there all day on Jan. 22, it’s a great way to see what we’re going to do all

day.”

McGill said a few previous participants will host small sessions during the day.

Kevin Bixby, the 2021 Comic Book Challenge champion from the Chicago area, will be one of the guests.

“In addition to drawing all day and showing off his skills, he’ll be telling people how to make their own mini-comics,” McGill said.

The last two Comic Book in a Day events have been virtual because of the COVID-19 pandemic. It was virtual in August 2020 and January 2021.

“Right now, we’re hopeful we get to hold the competition in person at the library,” McGill said. “There is still a virtual option (for anyone who) wants to do it that way.”

McGill said registration slots are full for both virtual programs.

‘We are hoping going back to the hybrid model allows us to get more people involved,” McGill said. “We’re hoping to have about 20 participants and there is still plenty of room for people to sign up right now.”

A look at the last 150 years in Fishers Commentary by Robert Bowling The year 2022 is here, and Fishers will celebrate its 150th BACK IN THE DAY anniversary later this year. A lot has changed since the city was founded by Salathiel Fisher in June 1872. Ever wondered what Fishers looked like back then? Here is a look at Fishers from 1889 as told by Capt.

Issac Dayton.

Dayton was a well-respected citizen and served four years in the Union Army during the Civil War, which was longer than most soldiers served. People referred to him by his rank until he died. He frequently wrote for the Hamilton County Ledger under the pen name “Fuzee.”

Dayton gave us the coordinates of Fishers as 39°, 58’, 80” north latitude. Although the longitudinal coordinates were missing, the GIS department for the Town of Fishers was able to plot it somewhere near the railroad tracks. When Fishers was founded, the railroad was called the Indianapolis, Peru, & Chicago. It underwent another name change before becoming the Lake Erie & Western railroad in 1887.

The town’s social organizations consisted of the Masonic Lodge and a chapter of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows. The IOOF, founded in 1851, was a fraternal organization that was the first organization to include women. There was one veterans’ organization, the Grand Army of the Republic, that consisted of Union veterans of the Civil War. It dissolved in 1956 when the last remaining veteran died. Fishers had a school and a church and City Hall was listed as a place of amusement. “Sam’s Place” was a local restaurant where residents and

travelers could enjoy a hot meal. There were two saloons in town for the “unregenerate” while the more “refined” citizens got their liquor from the local drugstore, with a prescription, of course.

Fishers was considered a commercial hub and drew people from across the river. It all started in 1886 when Sam Trittipo moved his general merchandise store from New Britton. Residents could buy anything from paper and food to a corn crusher. The town had a blacksmith, a jewelry store and a pawn shop.

Two of the biggest epidemics that struck the town were measles and typhoid pneumonia. But for the most part, the health of residents was fairly good. This was supposedly attributable to Mrs. Winslow’s Soothing Syrup, which most residents used. The syrup, created in 1849, was a cure-all for fussy babies. But the secret ingredients were morphine and alcohol, so it’s not surprising that many adults used it as well.

Fishers was referred to by a few different names. According to Capt. Dayton, it depended on what group a person fell into.

Those that traveled on the railroad referred to it as Fishers; those who sent long letters called it Fishers Switch; the rural people called it Fishers Station; and rival towns whose citizens wanted to be labeled as smart called it Mudsock.

Robert Bowling is a retired Fishers Police officer and current historian for the Fishers Historical Society. He is the author of “Wicked Fishers;” is a historical researcher for Officer Down Memorial Page; is a contributing writer for Officer magazine; and is a high school criminal justice teacher.

MyndVR virtual reality technology benefits senior residents at Allisonville Meadows

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com When MyndVR was founded five years ago in Dallas, CEO Chris Brickler said the goal was to offer virtual reality as a tool to improve the lives of senior citizens.

Now, the company has partnered with American Senior Communities to offer virtual reality headsets in its senior living Brickler communities.

Allisonville Meadows, a Fishers-based senior living facility in the ASC network, received its first headset in December 2021.

ASC is using the headsets for resident entertainment and also to aid residents with symptoms of dementia or Alzheimer’s disease. “(Virtual reality) provides a lot of things that general pharmacology might not provide, or situations where skilled nursing staff might not want to always use medication,” Brickler said. “So, we offer alternative ways to help with some of the side effects that happen in memory care. MyndVR is not a cure for anything, but we say MyndVR is well positioned to help with some of the side effects that come with dementia. Sundowning (late-day confusion), mood swings, those are sometimes hard to manage for staff.”

MyndVR also features virtual reality calming exercises.

“Virtual reality can take this person out of the four walls of their existence and lift them to a higher place and change their mood dramatically,” Brickler said. “If their mood changes, their behavior changes.”

Vickie Greenough, a memory care business development specialist with ASC, said the headsets have allowed some residents to become more communicative. She said the headsets also have helped reduce episodes of self-isolation in seniors living in ASC facilities.

“Folks who have been more resistant (to acGreenough tivities) are now coming out and participating in this particular program,” Greenough said. “There’s a lot of excitement around it. We are anxious to

see results of long-term monitoring of the benefits. We are seeing folks who are, from a memory care standpoint, those individuals who have perhaps lost some of their language skills, we are seeing them become more communicative in their responses.”

Headsets are obtained through a $100 per month subscription. They come with a smart tablet that can broadcast the headset experience to a TV so that more than one person can enjoy the experience at the same time.

For Allisonville Meadows resident Carol Kohls, the experience was exhilarating. Trying the MyndVR headset was Kohls’ first time experiencing virtual reality.

“I enjoyed the experience.

parts of it that bothered me, like jumping out of the airplane,” Kohls said, laughing. “I think it’s a fun thing to do.”

Although MyndVR’s primary goal is to improve the lives of seniors, MyndVR Vice President of Sales Tracy Hall said the technology also makes it easier for senior-living facility staff to do their jobs.

“A big part of the challenge in long-term care during the pandemic is staffing — retaining staff and addressing staff burnout,” Hall said.

“This platform is helping staff. What we package together tries to make life much easier and simpler for the staff. One of our focuses is trying to help the engagement with staff and the residents. Our platform and a lot of content we have, such as virtual vacations — you’re able to go to Paris, you’re able to go around the world — you can have the staff engaged more meaningfully with the residents by visiting locations from favorite family vacations or destinations they’ve never had a chance to go to.”

Vickie Greenough, a memory care business development specialist with American Senior Communities, said virtual reality technology sometimes simplifies challenges for staff.

“The added benefit that American Senior Communities sees in utilizing MyndVR is enhancing the quality of life of those we serve,” Greenough said. “The other piece is they’ve just added a meditation component to it, so when we do see an individual having a moment of upset or having some anxiety, we are able to remove them to a nice, quiet area and put headsets on for a nice meditation.

It alleviates that potential of using antipsychotic or anti-analgesic medication.”

Continued from Page 10 favorite MyndVR experience was virtually visiting New York City.

“It just struck me. I knew New York was huge, but I got a whole new perspective from seeing it,” Kohls said. “I’ve never visited it before.”

MyndVR headsets also facilitate more interaction between senior residents and their younger family members. There are countless categories on the headsets, and seniors can explore travel, skydiving, watching puppies, watching concerts, drag racing, visiting the International Space Station and other activities.

“Residents are able to visit locations from their favorite family vacations or a destination they’ve never had a chance to go to,” said Tracy Hall, vice president of sales for MyndVR. “They now can travel around the world while they are in the four walls in these communities. The last thing we want is to see our aging community going to an actual facility or a community like American Seniors Communities and stop living. “(MyndVR) is simply enhancing the experience to let the aging population know when you come into American Senior Communities, you’re going to continue to thrive and continue to live, regardless of being within those four walls.”

Hall said MyndVR is trying to address depression, anxiety and isolation in seniors.

“A lot of the aging population right now were ones who were pretty wild as young adults in the ‘60s and ‘70s,” Hall said.

“They’re not finished living. They still want to explore, and this provides another way of giving them what they want and what they need when living in assisted-living or senior communities.”

Allisonville Meadows is one of four American Senior Communities organizations in Hamilton County and is the only senior-living community. The other three — one each in Fishers, Noblesville and Westfield — are skilled-nursing communities.

“We’ve been trialing (MyndVR) in two of our communities — Allisonville Meadows and Coventry Meadows in Fort Wayne, since October,” Greenough said.

After seeing positive results of MyndVR in the senior-living communities, Greenough said ASC might introduce the technology to its skilled-nursing facilities.

Senior’s versatility boosts WHS girls basketball team

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Westfield High School basketball player Alyssa Crockett can be plugged in at a variety of spots on the floor.

“Alyssa’s biggest strengths are how multi-faceted she is,” Shamrocks coach Ginny Smith said. “She has the ability to play the 1 (point guard) or the 5 (center).

To find that dynamic in girls high school basketball is very uncommon.”

A 6-foot-2 senior, Crockett said she has been playing more in the post this season.

“We have good guards that can pass out on the perimeter to shooters,” Crockett said. “On the defensive end, I’ve been more of a rim protector.”

Prior to the Jan. 14 game, Crockett had team-leading averages of 18.3 points and 8.2 rebounds per game for the Shamrocks (15-3).

“The outside shot hasn’t fallen as much as previous years,” Crockett said. “So, getting to the basket and posting up, making shots around the basket and getting to the free throw line has been most effective for me this year. I’m getting perimeter shots whenever I can. If they are not falling,

Favorite athlete: Tamika Catchings Favorite subject in school: Math Favorite TV show: “The Office.”

Dream vacation spot: Hawaii I might as well use my size to be more effective.”

Smith said Crockett’s biggest improvements have been on the mental side.

“She has matured so much and plays with a level of confidence and calmness that she did not have previously,” Smith said. “She’s definitely the most all-around talented kid I’ve coached.”

Crockett said her leadership has improved.

“I’m just being super positive with all the girls on the team,” she said. “After every shot and every make, everyone is on the

court cheering, getting loud and clapping.

I think that definitely starts with me being vocal and getting everyone collectively together.”

Crockett said this is the strongest Shamrocks team she has been on.

“Last season, there was not as much communication and as much positivity flowing on the court,” Crockett said. “This year, (there has) been more encouragement and more confident players coming off the bench.”

Crockett said the bench is deeper this season.

Westfield is seeking its first sectional title since 2013.

“This year, our foot is on the gas to win that for Coach Smith and us,” Crockett said.

Smith is stepping down after this season to watch her son, Braden Smith, a Westfield High School senior, play basketball at Purdue.

Crockett has signed with the University of Michigan. She will likely play small forward or the wing position.

“I wanted to stay close to home because I’m the oldest of the four kids and we are all super close,” she said.

ESSAY

HUMOR

Divisive discourse

Cutting edge of sanity

Commentary by Terry Anker

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

The world is filled with people who care too little. They fail to inform themselves well enough to vote. They don’t invest in their careers, families, or futures. They ignore the suffering around them. They are disinterested in others to the point of neglect. We all know them. The world also is filled with people who care too much. They are voracious consumers of media and become polarized to the point of activism.

They fixate on their careers, families or next steps. They obsess over negative realities inure to the human condition.

They control others to the point of oppression. We all know them.

These poles illustrate the absurdity of absolutism. Still, would the world keep spinning were it not for the axis upon which it must revolve? Is the most temperate climate always at the equator?

Is it the purview of only the remarkable among us to find and maintain a sublime balance? Or is the duty levied upon each of us to love and support just as passionately as we provoke and challenge?

Most who have been called to lead know the burden of disagreement. It is considerably easier to accommodate than to expect better. Handing out candy is easier than teaching the lesson of rotten teeth. The harm is not in challenging those we love but in ignoring them. Yet if we never give candy, especially if we have a full basket of it, do we foment resentment? With maturity, most of us figure out where the guardrails are. Do we have disagreements in our lives that we imagine annoyances instead of gestures of love? We carefully choose those with whom we engage in deep and ardent discourse. The risk is too great and the effort too significant to endure with those whom we do not hold dear.

The other night I had this dream that I was happily running people through with a broad sword; left and right, just ecstatically hacking folks to pieces.

Even worse, when I awoke, I felt neither horror nor shame, but rather a sense of joyous contentment. Yikes! What is wrong with me? I tried to find possible triggers, but found none, as I’m reading a slow-moving biography of Mary Todd Lincoln, sans duels, and binge-watching “The Great British Bake Off,” where the use of large cutlery has been infrequent.

Why, then, was my subconscious so full of sociopathic rage? Ah, yes. My college-age children are still home.

I’m only slightly exaggerating here.

You go five months of a certain routine that involves quiet, order, low Meijer bills, available laundry machines and slow-moving evenings and mornings, then suddenly, very needy, adult-sized humans descend like an angry swarm of bees, demanding hugs and dinner and 1-on-1 time — and there’s not a darn thing you can do about it until school recalls them four excruciatingly long weeks later.

And especially for me, an introvert who relies on the “out of sight, out of mind” principle for reducing maternal anxiety, their constant presence, while delightful for a few days, slowly erodes my patience and sanity. When I would normally enjoy a post-work sudoku game alone on my couch before minimally engaging with husband and high schooler, now I am bombarded with the frenetic energy of 20-somethings and their subsequent messiness from the minute I walk in the door until I escape to my bedroom and collapse in exhaustion.

So, yeah, I’m murdering people in my dreams. Can you really blame me?

Peace out.

READERS’ VIEWS

Legislators should support solar Editor, If you’re a solar owner or thinking about going solar, please ask our state legislators for policies that encourage this choice. State Sen. Scott Baldwin, as a member of the Senate Utilities Committee, and House Speaker Todd Huston have an important opportunity to help solar grow in Indiana.

It turns out electric utilities are going outside of the law in the way they reimburse solar owners for energy supplied to the grid. By changing from monthly netting to instantaneous netting, solar owners are compensated significantly less. This problem is addressed by (Senate Bill) 248, which requires that utilities use monthly netting.

Baldwin should support this bill to curb utility overreach.

But there is an even better bill in the

House, thanks to Rep. Tony Cook. HB 1136 would extend net metering for three years for people, schools and cities. Net metering makes solar more affordable and provides the full retail rate for electricity sent to the grid. We need net metering to remain competitive with neighboring states. Huston should make sure HB 1136 gets a fair hearing in committee.

Concerns about global warming prompted me to invest in solar and geothermal energy in my home, and I enjoy energy freedom from these investments. However, it only seems right that solar owners should be properly compensated for making an investment that is benefitting utility companies and the environment. Our legislators, Huston and Baldwin, should support these bills that encourage solar investment.

Max Goller, Fishers

Solar reduces taxpayer costs

making your Wedding Day dreams a Reality...

Editor, Our legislators are back in session, and I hope they work on good solar policies for Indiana. This state should be thrilled so many people, schools, businesses and cities have and want to invest in solar technology. It makes us more energy self-sufficient.

I’m a solar owner and want to thank my representative Tony Cook for introducing a bill (HB 1136) that would extend net metering and makes solar more affordable for homes, schools and cities. Solar helps to cut energy costs and saves taxpayer dollars for schools and cities. Solar and sustainable energy should be promoted to its utmost.

Net metering is for small-scale, customer-owned and rooftop solar that is used to

meet your own energy needs. It’s not about the large-scale solar farms for utilities.

I also want to urge (State) Sen. Scott Baldwin, who sits on the utilities committee, to hear a bill (SB 248) that fixes a terrible loophole. Utilities are using this loophole to change the way they reimburse solar owners for energy supplied to the grid. By changing from “monthly” to “instantaneous” netting, solar owners are compensated significantly less. Instantaneous netting hurts people, schools and cities that embrace energy freedom and expect to receive fair compensation for power we create. Lawmakers need to fix this loophole.

Matteo’s to visit Italy

Great Dine Out returns

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com

After a two-year hiatus because of the COVID-19 pandemic, Matteo’s Ristorante Italiano will again organize trips to Italy.

A group of 40 guests will visit Sicily, Amalfi Coast, Pompeii, Matera and Rome during a 12-day trip beginning Oct. 12. Out of the 40 open spots for the trip, 36 people have already signed up. Participants must pay their own trip fare. The trip is open to the public.

Matteo’s Ristorante Italiano co-owner Adson Franco said the Italy trips began in 2018 and were so popular the restaurant considered expanding them to other destinations, like Greece and South America.

Three trips were scheduled in 2020 but were canceled because of the pandemic.

No trips were scheduled in 2021.

“The primary goal with these trips is to take our guests so they can have the local experience,” Franco said. “We do some sightseeing during the trips, but the main thing is, we go to a lot of small businesses — farmers who grow their own grapes and make their own wines. We go to limoncello

January is often a slow time for restaurants. Coupled with the COVID-19 pandemic, restaurant owners expressed heightened concern about business in the 2021 winter season. That’s when Hamilton County Tourism launched the Great Dine Out. The Great Dine Out celebrates its second year and runs through Jan. 31. More than 40 participating restaurants will offer deals and discounts for dine-in and carryout meals. After eight check-ins using an online passport, participants are eligible to receive a $25 gift card to a local restaurant while supplies last. Each check-in will be entered for an overall grand prize for a Hamilton County prize pack, including a hotel stay, attraction passes and gift cards.

“It was wildly successful last year,” said Ashley Ledford, Hamilton County Tourism’s director of marketing and promotions.

“Restaurants are such a vital part of the tourism economy, and we thought we would bring it back for a second year to show our support to those important partners.”

factories. We go to places that make bread, pastries. We keep them really engaged in the Italian culture through food and wine.”

Franco said if there’s a favorite dish the travelers try while they’re abroad, he’ll offer it as a specialty on the restaurant menu.

Franco and his business partner, restaurant co-owner Joelcir Antunes, alternate taking the trips with the guests.

Franco said about 80 percent of the people who sign up for the trips have taken other trips with the restaurant.

After the first week of the Great Dine Out, more than 1,500 people had accessed the online passport.

“It’s a great way for us to promote local restaurants and get people out dining when it’s traditionally a slower season for them,” Ledford said.

After a diner signs up for the passport, they should either bookmark the link or save it to their phone home screen. Then, when the diner visits a participating restaurant, they check in with the passport. All participating restaurants will offer a deal or discount.

Needler’s Fresh Market settles in Carmel

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com Since opening in Carmel in August 2021, Needler’s Fresh Market has made itself at home at 4755 E. 126th St. “We were called upon by some of the government officials that were saying, ‘Boy, they really, really needed a retailer to go in that location,’” Needler’s co-owner and Vice President of Marketing Julie Needler Anderson said. “The fact that it was in a former

Marsh kind of led them to us because we have, of course, purchased some of the former Marsh stores.”

The location was previously a Joe O’Malia’s Food Markets store, which was purchased by Marsh but retained the O’Malia name until it closed in 2017. Anderson said area residents were hoping for another independent retailer.

“We try to understand what they’re looking for before we open,” Anderson said. “We don’t have a one-size-fits-all. We really try

to evaluate the needs of the community. In this particular case, we thought there might be a need for a high-quality meat offering.

“In addition, we have created an exciting offering for seafood.”

Besides selling meat and seafood, such as mahi mahi and red snapper, the Carmel store offers other specialties, such as Roundabout Donuts, a nod to Carmel’s dozens of roundabouts.

Needler’s features products of local farmers and retailers, including Oberweis Dairy,

Tulip Tree Creamery, Rosie’s Baked Goods, Amelia’s Bread, Hubbard & Cravens coffee, Tinker Coffee, Indie Coffee Roasters, Broad Ripple Chips, Sushi Boss sushi, Smoking Goose Meatery, Miller’s Amish Poultry, Indiana Kitchen Pork, Fischer Farms meats, Uplift Salads, Circle City Kombucha, Sun King Brewery and Oliver Winery.

BEHIND BARS: USING LIMONCELLO IN COCKTAILS

Commentary by Torrie Hudson

Commentary by Anna Skinner

Turning simple foods into something fancy can be challenging and is also one of my favorite things to do. The sloppy Joe sandwich doesn’t always have to be “sloppy,” so let me introduce you to the Tidy Joseph’s!

They’re great for parties, gatherings or for the kids.

Ingredients: 1 pound Joe’s Premium Grind from Joe’s Butcher Shop in Carmel (or turkey), 1 shallot, 4 cloves of garlic, salt and pepper to taste, 1 6 oz. can of tomato paste, 1 cup of your favorite BBQ sauce, 1/4 cup water, slider buns, 2 teaspoons butter, 1/2 cup gouda cheese, shredded, 1/4 cup pickled onions, diced Directions: In a skillet, on medium heat, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil. Add in chopped shallots. Next, add your chopped garlic (sprinkle with salt and pepper). When it becomes fragrant, add your ground meat.

Brown until cooked thoroughly. Add the can of tomato paste and continue to stir until mixed in. Add the water and simmer for 3 minutes. Next add the BBQ Sauce. Turn down the heat and simmer for about 5 minutes. Add salt and pepper to taste. Preheat

Matteo’s Ristorante Italiano, 40 N. Ninth St., Noblesville, is famous for its house-made limoncello, and many diners order it straight for a delightful after-dinner drink. However, Matteo’s also uses the lemon elixir in several of its cocktails, including the recipes below. The drinks look similar but have very different flavor profiles.

your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Melt butter in the microwave for about 30 seconds. Brush the inside of the buns with the melted butter and place them on a baking sheet. Heat them in the oven for about 5 minutes or until they are golden brown.

Scoop the meat onto the bun. Top off with shredded gouda and diced pickled onions.

Try adding your favorite hot sauce!

On the dry side of wine

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com Sugar Creek Winery owner David Phillips is doing his part to provide an interesting wine destination for local residents. The winery, 1111 W. Main St., Suite 165, Carmel, is decorated with a cabin and lake house theme, and all the wines are named after rivers, creeks, streams and rapids.

Phillips planted the vineyard in Montgomery County in 2012. Sugar Creek Winery opened in September 2018.

Although Phillips grows his own grapes, he must import some for the wines at Sugar Creek Winery because those grapes are not suitable for Indiana winters. He grows two white varieties and two red varieties in his 2 1/2-acre vineyard in Montgomery County.

Sugar Creek Winery lends itself to palates that prefer drier wines.

“Most Indiana growers and winemakers tend to be on the sweeter side,” said Phillips, a Carmel resident. “I think that’s somewhat of a Midwestern wine taste. That’s not true here, and I think it’s probably the Carmel demographic.”

Phillips said dry wines are 75 percent of

his sales. There are 22 wines on the list, 14 of which are on the drier side.

Besides selling wine, Phillips wants to help nonprofits in the area. He allows nonprofits to freely access the winery’s back room, which seats between 14 and 25 people.

Creek Winery offers guided wine tastings, live music and events such as wine pairings with Girl Scout cookies. It is pet and child friendly.

Hamilton County leader named Difference Maker of the Year

DISPATCHES Discounts that actually cost you money — Retailers have latched onto a way to offer giant percentages off that are mesmerizing to shoppers but are not what they seem. The pitch: You get a gigantic discount, typically up to 70 percent off, but the fine print notes that you get that discount only on a second or third of multiple similar items. Signs in store windows and on store shelves (and online) shout out the percentage and shoppers often don’t do the math to see just how unimpressive these offers typically are. For example, based on an offer of “buy two, get the third 50 percent off,” you take three items to checkout, where you then receive a total discount of 17 percent because you pay full price for the first two items.

Fishers resident’s journey leads to fitness coaching career

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Betsy Kwiatkowski’s personal journey inspired the idea of opening a Fit Body Boot Camp.

NEW BIZ “Four years ago, I had my last baby,” said Kwiatkowski, who has three children. “At the time, I didn’t realize who the person was who was staring me back in the mirror. That pushed me to get my own 1-on-1 coach. That eventually led me to the Fit Body Boot Camp way, in a sense. The last four years I’ve lost roughly 50 to 70 pounds myself. I’ve kept it off in the four years.

“If it hadn’t been (for) the coaches I was with, I wouldn’t have made these lifelong habits to build a healthy lifestyle that I’m proud of. It kickstarted me into becoming a certified personal trainer.”

The Fishers resident opened Fit Body Boot Camp Jan. 8 at 9653 Olio Rd., McCordsville. Kwiatkowski said Fit Body Boot Camp is a fast-growing fitness franchise and is the first franchise in central Indiana.

“Our members are mostly from Fishers, Fortville, McCordsville and Lawrence area,”

Betsy Kwiatkowski and her husband, Jason, co-own Fit Body Boot Camp in McCordsville.

Kwiatkowski said.

Kwiatkowski, a Lewis Cass High School graduate, played basketball for Cleveland State University for three years and for one year at Lincoln Memorial University in Tennessee. Kwiatkowski, whose maiden name is Bowser, also coached college and high school basketball in northern Indiana.

Kwiatkowski has been part of the fitness

and coaching industry for the last four years. The past two years she ran her own 1-on-1 coaching business.

“My passion is coaching people,” Kwiatkowski said. “I do this to bring others joy.

At the end of the day, everyone wants to be happy with the skin they are in. I know what it’s like to be completely uncomfortable in my own skin. I know how hard it is to start your own journey. I also understand what it takes to make that mind shift that allows you transform mind, body and soul.

That’s where Fit Body Boot Camp comes into play for me.

“It aligns perfectly with my core values.

It’s why I wanted to bring it to the Fishers community.”

Kwiatkowski is the president of the franchise, and her husband, Jason, is vice president.

The three key parts of Fit Body Boot Camp, Kwiatkowski said, are coaching and accountability, results and convenience and affordability.

“There are certified trainers that are there to give the clients accountability to stay on task, hit their goals, answering questions, whether it be on fitness or nutrition,” Kwi-

“If it hadn’t been (for) the coaches I was with, I wouldn’t have made these lifelong habits to build a healthy lifestyle that I’m proud of. It kickstarted me into becoming a certified personal trainer.”

– BETSY KWIATKOWSKI atkowski said. “We are absolutely known for our 30-minute sessions that burn twice the number of calories in half the time. No more 45- or 60-minutes sessions. We have found dynamic workouts that can give you afterburns of 36 hours.”

Three additional personal trainers work at Fit Body Boot Camp.

Before becoming a fitness coach, Kwiatkowski worked in dental sales for 14 years.

“My sales background is pulling me through more than I thought it would,” she said.

Geist couple make memorable Broadway debut as co-producers

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Tom Faludy’s first investment in a Broadway production ended up being remarkable.

THEATER Faludy and his wife, Pam, invested in “Moulin Rouge!

The Musical,” which was nominated for 14 Tony Awards, winning 10, including best musical. The Geist couple were co-producers.

“That is a pretty phenomenal achievement,” Faludy said. “To be associated with something that is that compelling of an entertainment spectacle, with so many talented people involved, is truly a blessing and privilege. You have to pinch yourself.”

“Moulin Rouge” opened July 25, 2019, at Al Hirschfeld Theatre on Broadway. It was running when Broadway shut down in March 2020 because of the COVID-19 pandemic. It reopened Sept. 24, 2021, after an 18-month shutdown.

“We kept all the key people together except for one in a prominent role,” Faludy said. “We were there the second night of the reopening, and it was magical.”

The Tony Awards were held the next night on Sept. 26. The Faludys were with the cast the night of the Tony Awards at a private party at Tavern On The Green.

“I came to America as a refugee from Hungary when I was 10 years old, so I’ve been blessed by the opportunities in America,” said Faludy, who was a child actor in Hungary. “I’ve been able to live out the promise, the hope and the dream of America. I feel blessed, humbled and privileged because there is no way I could ever connect the dots between the beginning of my life in Hungary to where I am today.”

Faludy, 75, eventually got connected with Broadway because of his longtime friendship with businessman Gerry Ryan.

Faludy has been chairman of a board for Ryan’s companies in Australia for the past 10 years. They met 30-plus years ago when Faludy ran a company in Colorado. Ryan

Pam and Tom Faludy hold their award as co-producers of “Moulin Rouge! The Musical.”

was building recreation vehicles in Australia and New Zealand. Faludy’s company made parts for RVs. “In that time, he not only became a great customer, but more importantly became (my) closest friend in the world,” Faludy said. “He also became one of Australia’s most successful business people and philanthropists.”

Faludy said Ryan has an interest in sports teams, including a cycling and rugby team, and thoroughbred racing.

“He has three Melbourne Cups, which is one of the richest horse races in the world,” said Faludy, who is vice president

of global growth and strategic development for Lippert Components. “He has an animatronics company, which builds dinosaurs and various life-sized objects.”

Faludy said Ryan formed a theatrical company for an arena show featuring dinosaurs. The show was called “Walking with Dinosaurs,” produced by the production company Global Creatures.

“That was a British TV show, and we got the theatrical rights to that,” Faludy said.

“We did these arena shows all over the world and (they were) very successful. It started 15 years ago.”

Approximately eight years ago, Global Creatures bought the theatrical rights for “King Kong.”

Creature Technology built a 30-foot animated King Kong. Global Creatures produced a musical “King Kong.”

“That was the first Broadway production I was exposed to,” Faludy said.

Faludy said the production company took “King Kong” off Broadway after a year because it wasn’t a commercial success.

Ryan then got to know Baz Luhrmann, who directed, co-produced and co-wrote the movie “Moulin Rouge” starring Nicole Kidman, in 2021. Luhrmann made a deal for Global Creatures to produce theatrical versions of Luhrmann’s films. “‘Moulin Rouge’ was a successful movie, and so we knew it would be a well-received theatrical production because it already had such a strong cult following,” Faludy said. “Global Creatures has a brilliant CEO (Carmen Pavlovic), and she put together a phenomenal team, everything from story-writing, musical direction to choreography and costumes.”

The show’s first pre-Broadway run was in Boston and was very successful, Faludy said. When it went to Broadway, Faludy and his wife had the opportunity to invest and became co-producers.

“They worked for years on getting rights to the music. It was a very complex production to get on the stage because of the fact ‘Moulin Rouge’ has so many songs incorporated into the play,” Faludy said.

A downtown street in Auckland, New Zealand. (Photos by Don Knebel)

A visit to Auckland Commentary by Don Knebel With Indiana now in the middle of winter, I am writing about places to visit where it is warm and sunny. Today, TRAVEL we will visit Auckland, New Zealand, a sophisticated and vibrant city, where the average temperature in January is about 70 degrees, with an average 228 hours of sunshine during the month.

Auckland is on the northwestern corner of New Zealand’s North Island. The area was first settled by the Maori, Polynesian people who came from other islands in the 14th century and called it “Tamaki Makaurau.”

The city of Auckland was founded by European settlers in 1840 and became the capital of New Zealand in 1841, a position it held until 1865, when the capital was moved to Wellington because of its central location.

Today, Auckland, with a population of about 1.5 million, is the largest urban area in New Zealand. The city’s population is ethnically diverse, with almost half its residents born outside New Zealand. People with European heritages are now less than 50 percent of the city’s population. Because of its location on a narrow isthmus, Auckland has two harbors, one on the Pacific Ocean and one on the Tasman Sea. One in three Auckland households owns a boat, giving rise to it being called the “City of Sails.” The immaculately maintained central business district includes world-class shops and the Sky Tower, the tallest free-standing building in the southern hemisphere. The 1,076-foottall tower is part of the Sky City Casino complex, which features 2,100 gaming machines and 150 table games.
