smaller particles, or aerosols, to linger in the air, also posing a risk of infection, Box said.

“Cloth face coverings have been shown to substantially limit the spread of exhaled respiratory droplets, and they may prevent the inhalation of infected particles suspended in the air from another individual,” Box said. “This should not be a surprise to us because masks have been worn in health care settings to prevent the spread of respiratory viruses for years. We also wear masks in surgery to prevent infecting a patient who’s undergoing surgery.”

Box said a recent study found that, compared to the general population, front-line health care workers were infected with the virus at a similar rate, despite being more frequently exposed to the virus. She said universal face mask adherence was part of a successful plan to protect the workers.

Box warned of the danger of Hoosiers becoming complacent to mitigation efforts.

“All it takes is one outbreak or a group of people who don’t wear a mask or don’t practice social distancing, and those numbers can spike quickly, so as we move into Stage 5, it’s absolutely imperative that we remember that this is not a return to life as we knew it in January or February,” Box said.

COVID-19 school metrics State officials shared a historical snapshot of an upcoming school COVID-19 dashboard showing 1,348 cumulative student positive cases as of Sept. 18.

The snapshot also showed 488 new COVID-19 cases were reported between Sept.

13 and Sept. 18. Another 104 teachers and 115 staff members tested positive statewide in the same week. In total, the snapshot showed 274 cumulative teacher cases and 276 cumulative staff cases.

Box said state officials plan to launch the dashboard by the end of the month. It will be made available at coronavirus.in.gov.

As of this writing, we can’t predict when “normal” will return, but we’re aching for it to happen much sooner than later.

Thank you for your understanding as we continue to strive to get back to business as usual.

Please let us know if you have questions, and please be well and stay well.

Council approves hotel delay

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com The Fishers City Council unanimously approved a request from the Nickel Plate Hotel to delay its closing date by 18 months at the council’s Sept. 22 GOVERNMENT meeting.

The Nickel Plate Hotel, a boutique hotel, was proposed last year in conjunction with the First Internet Bank’s new corporate headquarters and a multi-family project on 116th Street in downtown Fishers.

“Nobody forecasted COVID and the impact it would then have on the tourism industry,” Economic Development Director Megan Baumgartner said. “They (hotel developers) have asked for an extension of their closing date.”

The closing date was originally scheduled for December but will now be June 2022.

“This gives them 18 months to finalize their plans to get through this pandemic and finalize their financing terms,” Baumgartner said.

By delaying the closing date 18 months, construction also will be pushed back 18

months after closing. The estimated completion time is 18 months after June 2022.

Mayor Scott Fadness said the delay has some positives.

“It actually has benefits in some regard,” Fadness said. “There are cost savings associated with building the tunnel for the Nickel Plate Trail while that hotel isn’t there.

We would be able to peel back the dirt and build it independently.”

Fadness said another benefit would be less congestion tied to construction in downtown Fishers.

“Frankly, anybody who has been downtown realizes there’s an awful lot going on right now in one small space,” he said.

COMEBACK PATIENT OF THE MONTH This is one in a series of case studies of triumph over injury. For previous installments, visit www.methodistsports.com.

BACKGROUND: Ben Weidner of Zionsville tore his Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) in his knee in February 2020 while playing basketball. A longtime athlete in soccer and basketball, he played competitively for Zionsville Community High School and for elite travel teams.

He sought treatment from Methodist Sports Medicine Orthopedic Surgeon, Dr. Thomas Klootwyk so that he could get on the road to recovery and resume playing the sports he loves. Dr. Klootwyk did surgery in March to repair Ben’s ACL. Ben then went through various stages of rehab at MSM at the Grand Park Clinic in Westfield, and is now on track to resume athletic participation at DePauw University as a dual sport athlete in soccer and basketball.

THE RECOVERY: “Ben was an exceptional patient to work with! He had an unbelievable work ethic and motivation to better himself every time he came into the clinic.

He always wanted to be pushed to his limits and he Nick Chandler, DPT wasn’t afraid to leave everything he had in the weight room or on the turf. He was one of those types of patients that physical therapists love working with!”

The Fishers City Council gave a GOVERNMENT lukewarm reception to Maple Del, a new development proposed west of the Chatham Tap restaurant on 116th Street.

The council voted 7-2 to delay approval of the project another month.

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com In bouldering, a subset of rock climbing, routes are commonly called “problems,” and Climb Time Indy co-owner ToFITNESS pher Bell sure had a problem on his hands when he and his business partner Tod Utter were forced to close the gym in March due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Bell, of Indianapolis, and Utter, of Noblesville, assumed ownership of the Geist/Fishers area climbing gym when the previews owner, Steve Allen, pursued a different career path after owning the gym for 15 years.

Bell and Utter became co-owners in November 2019. Just a few months later, they had to close the gym. Climb Time Indy, which operates at 25 percent capacity, reopened in June. Climbers are required to wear face coverings at all times.

Yet, Bell said climbers are well-versed about caution, especially when it comes to climbing.

“The climbing community as a whole tends to be very cautious,” the 2005 Carmel High School graduate said. “I think we face risk frequently enough that we are used to caution, so we are requiring masks for all entrants as part of that cautious approach to having fun. This is for anybody that does want to get out and get excited and feel the thrill, get a workout in and feel strong in an environment where they don’t feel like they’re going to be exposed unnecessarily to any sort of COVID contaminants. This is a great option.

Because of the pandemic, Bell and Utter haven’t been able to offer all of the programs they envisioned in the spring. But they expect to be able to do so in the coming weeks and months.

“We are trying to do a theme or an event every single month for our member base, to challenge them to climb harder, climb better and invest in the community more,” Bell said.

The facility shows films, offers yoga and creates challenges where climbers are tasked with climbing a total 1-mile of routes throughout a month.

The pandemic caused Climb Time Indy to lose approximately 10 percent of its membership, and the gym also saw a sharp decline in its other offerings, such as day passes. Moreover, the gym also faces the

hurdle in the fact that Indiana isn’t widely regarded as a rock-climbing destination, but Bell said that doesn’t deter him and Utter from introducing new climbers to the sport.

“This is a sport that’s very accessible out West. If you want to be a rock climber in Colorado, that’s the same as telling someone you want to start running here,” Bell said. “To become a climber or decide you want to try climbing in the state of Indiana takes a lot of courage because it is such a foreign sport for us. So, what Climb Time has always offered, and we want to continue to offer at an even greater scale, is a welcoming environment for everybody who has an interest in climbing.”

Climb Time offers private sessions, kids club training and other activities.

“The gym is trying to invest in the members to help them maximize what they get out of the sport,” Bell said. “To me, Indiana climbing is something that is very special and not like most other places. To look at us, you think we’re not supposed to be rock climbers, and I think that attitude is what helps cultivate such a strong sense of community in this gym and in this state.”

Fishers No. 1 for stable markets news@currentinfishers.com SmartAsset, a New York financial technology firm, recently measured the average number of years people stay in their homes and the percentage of homeowners with negative equity. Fishers topped the list for most stable housing markets in Indiana.

The study considered four factors: stability, affordability, fluidity and risk of loss.

Stability was measured by the number of years people remain in their homes and the

percentage of homeowners with negative equity. To measure risk, the study used the percentage of homes that decreased in value. To determine housing market fluidity, the study examined data on the average time a for-sale home in each area spent on the market. The study calculated affordability by monthly cost of owning a home as a percentage of household income in each city.

COVER STORY Fishers Arts & Culture Commission to fund several public art displays throughout the city

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com

The City of Fishers will be a little brighter soon, as the Fishers Arts & Culture Commission recently approved several new art projects throughout the Nickel Plate Cultural District.

The commission recently received a $460,853 grant from the City of Fishers. It plans to use $375,000 on signature projects and $85,000 on quick-action projects.

The funds were acquired through the sale of the Meyer Najem building at 11787 Lantern Rd. According to a press release from the Fishers Arts & Culture Commission, Fishers received proceeds from the sale because of an economic development agreement negotiated between the city and Meyer Najem in 2012. The agreement included a provision stating the city would get its proportionate share of profit back to the Town Hall Building Corp. based on the provided incentive should the company refinance or sell the building. Earlier this year, the building was sold to an investment group and the city received its share of the profit.

The Fishers Arts & Culture Commission’s master plan was completed in November 2019, and residents identified permanent art installations as a top priority.

“We spent a year on the master plan trying to figure out what the community members wanted, and public art was a big part of that,” Fishers Arts & Culture Commission Chairperson David Decker said. “So, we figured out how to implement that and give them what they wanted.”

Quick-action projects include new Edge parking garage banners, a mural for the Fishers Police Station, art features at Holland Park, painted electrical boxes and an Indiana Black History Temporary Art installation.

The temporary art is the first project to be completed. Muralists Koda Witsken and Israel Solomon are the artists for the project.

Witsken met Solomon when Solomon was completing his George Floyd mural in downtown Indianapolis on Massachusetts Avenue. Both artists will complete half of a mural of jazz musician Wes Montgomery. “(Solomon) has a geometric style and I only use soft organic shapes, so to put them side by side would be cool to unite our styles and celebrate unity,” Witsken said.

When complete, the panel will be dis-

played on a mobile wood structure.

“It’s going to move all around the state to bring communities together, and it’s going to start in Fishers,” Witsken said.

When complete, the mural will be on display outside of Fishers City Hall. It also will be displayed at the courthouse in Noblesville, Elwood City Hall and various places in Irvington as well as at Hub & Spoke in Fishers.

“He’ll be all over the place,” Witsken said of the mural.

The City of Fishers is fully funding the mural at $2,000. It will continue traveling until September 2021. After that, Fishers will own it. An RFP recently was released for the police station mural, which will be a 1,000-square-foot piece on the back of

the police station garage that boarders the Nickel Plate Trail, which is being developed.

The mural is inspired by the service of the U.S. Military and Fishers public safety departments, including police and fire. Decker said the Holland Park piece won’t be a mural but will be more interactive. Four to six more electrical boxes will be painted throughout the city. The Edge banners will consist of eight 24-foot-by-10-foot banners.

The two signature projects will be a gateway feature at 116th Street and Interstate 69 in the median west of the I-69 interchange bridge, and an interactive art piece at the Hamilton East Public Library at the future location of the Nickel Plate Trail. The library interactive piece is slated for com-

pletion in 2021.

PROJECT COSTS • Gateway feature signature project: $275,000 • Hamilton East Public Library interactive piece: $100,000 • Edge banners: $30,000 • Police station mural: $25,000 • Holland Park art feature: $18,000 • Electrical boxes: $10,000 • Indiana Black History Temporary Art: $2,000

ESSAY

LETTER

Rye response

Peek’s article is inaccurate

Commentary by Terry Anker The news reports are tough. A recent poll of our remaining restaurants holds that, in addition to the many already closed during this pandemic, a full 40 percent more expect to be closed within six months. Some of the more cynical among us might proclaim, “Good. COVID made us stay home and made us drink less.” Well, perhaps. What we know has happened is that we’ve reincarnated Great-Grandmother’s meatloaf recipe, gained a few pounds and learned how to Zoom. But while folks may be drinking less out, we are drinking way more at home.

Meatloaf or homebrew, we’ve shut out a whole sector of friends and neighbors from the fun. While local eateries are desperately working to hang on, spending well into the red to support long-time and struggling workers, we have become expert mixologists (at the very least, we have been working to teach the dog to open the fridge and bring us a beer).

Happily, not everyone has overlooked the problem. Local cigar purveyor Corey Johnston, local radio host Tony Katz and local distiller Nolan Smith have combined their considerable talents to produce a remarkably smooth and complex spirit aimed not only at easing our own strains but working to lift a bit of the burden borne disproportionately by those who used to concoct and deliver the elixirs to us. Recovery Rye delivers $5 of its whiskey-of-the-people price to those who need it most. The Indiana Restaurant & Lodging Association will see to it.

Do we imagine a day when we will routinely gather, in public, to celebrate the big game or the end of a hard day?

Yes. In the meantime, Recovery Rye makes it easy for us to “tip” the servers who so desperately want to survive.

Visit recoveryrye.com to find out how to purchase. Aren’t we still thirsty?

All I had to do was ask Commentary by Danielle Wilson Yes! I’ve done it, friends. I’ve manipulated my way into a second godmother appointment. Here’s the skinny: HUMOR I have 28 nieces and nephews, and thus far, only my twin in California has bequeathed me with the most coveted of all aunt/uncle honors of shepherding her child through this crazy world (by shepherding, I mean Amazoning a birthday gift every September). It’s not really my fault that I’ve only been chosen once; many of my relatives aren’t Catholic or don’t “do” godparents. Also, I’m merely one among many potential worthy adults, with my husband, Doo, having five siblings and me having four. Throw in nine outstanding spouses, and the competition is truly fierce.

And up until this year, I’d believed my hopes of a repeat title to be nonexistent, unless someone decided to go the adoption route (we’re simply getting too old!), But miracle of miracles, one new baby has al-

ready arrived, and another is due in November. Here’s where I focused my attention and formulated a sure-proof plan to sway my youngest sister: A subversive, yet obvious, “Pick me! Pick me!”

I volunteered to drive two hours to her house and paint the nursery! It had been on her to-do list for awhile but managing a 6- and 4-year-old during a pandemic and our dad’s recent passing had gotten in the way. I showed up at her door, cranked that puppy out in three hours, and then casually brought up the decision during dinner. It was almost too easy. Maybe not quite as easy as Amazoning a Harry Potter Lego set to L.A., but … I’m a godmother again!

Peace out.

“I volunteered to drive two hours to her house and paint the nursery! It had been on her to-do list for a while but managing a 6- and 4-year-old during a pandemic and our dad’s recent passing had gotten in the way.”

Editor, Jason Peek’s article, “Help fallen heroes’ survivors,” published in Current, was woefully inaccurate in his implications of meaning of the phrase “defund the police”.

“Defund the police” does not mean that police would no longer exist. But it does mean that police budgets, which are heavily inflated, would be reduced to direct more funding to programs that actually help communities – housing equality, education, employment, etc.

Those funds would also be redirected to others who can better handle many calls that are really not police matters.

This concept is based on a model of several other nations that are doing much better all-around than we are.

For example, the U.S. spends more per capita on policing than almost all other developed countries, but our per capita crime rates are still much higher than those countries. What’s different? Those other countries invest highly in social programs while the U.S.’s solution has always been to just hire more police and give police military-style weapons that they can use against U.S. citizens. That has not solved the problem, so maybe we should try something different.

I run 5 miles a day, but those who have observed me in action question the use of the word “run” and even the HUMOR word “action.” The baby steps I take — as opposed to a long athletic stride — have resulted in some significant mocking. I now wonder whether my plan to win the Mini Marathon should be removed from my bucket list.

Last winter, I joined a nearby gym. My friend Bob took a video of me on the running track and showed it to his wife, Cathy, who commented on how tiny my steps were. She also said I looked like I was tiptoeing through the tulips. Hence my new nickname: Tiny Tim. My wife is now also on my case. Every time I announce that I am going for a little run around the block, she corrects me.

“Dick, you are not running. No one would consider what you do running.”

“OK, OK, I’m jogging.”

“Even that’s a stretch, Dick, although I hate to put the word ‘stretch’ in any conversation about how your legs move when you circle the block.”

My friends Paul and Karen next door always pull up next to me in their car and ask how many steps I’ve completed so far that day. I appreciate the question, but I don’t like it when Paul puts “steps” in air quotes.

Then there’s Eric and Yok. When I see them first thing in the morning, I tell them that I plan to run around the block three times (about 2 miles).

“I hope you are bringing a box lunch,” Eric says. Ha, ha. Very funny.

Meg and Rahul, who live on our cul de sac, have an adorable baby, about 11 months old. When they see me jogging, they steer the stroller so that I am no longer in their son’s view. He will be walking soon, and they want to avoid any poor role models.

I was tired of all the kidding, so I Googled the difference between running, jogging and fast walking.

One site noted that jogging is often the slowest of the three, ranging from 3.5 mph to 5 mph. Mary Ellen didn’t find the information helpful for defining my gait. She suggested that I should Google “running in place.”

A final note: A housefly (the kind you miss with your swatter nine times out of 10) flies at exactly the same speed I walk. I know this because it was part of a TED Talk I listened to while jogging from my front door to my mailbox. Ten minutes well spent.

Food delivery service expands into county

By Heather Collins news@currentinfishers.com The Ring family has been in the business of delivering healthy, GROCERIES organic food to local Hoosiers since groceries were delivered by horse-and-buggy.

The great-great-grandparents of Dave Ring operated The Crescent Grocery store in Indiana, which survived through the Great Depression. Now, Ring and his wife, Sara, are owners of Muncie-based The Downtown Farm Stand that has recently expanded its delivery service to include Hamilton County and Zionsville.

The Rings started a small, organic farm in 2000 before opening The Downtown Farm Stand in 2007 with a goal of building a local organic food system for their farm, other farmers and consumers.

Dave Ring describes The Downtown Farm Stand as a retro grocery store that harkens to the days when the corner grocery store supplied the community with food from local producers.

“Local food and connections to local farms help instill our connection to food

better, fresher food that tastes the best, is in season and has a higher nutrient content.”

A vast majority of the Downtown Farm Stand’s selection is sourced from local farms and producers, including pasture-raised meats. Ring said The Downtown Farmstand is the only grocery delivery service that has an all-organic selection.

He said he decided to expand delivery service to Hamilton County to increase markets for the farms they support.

There are four types of customizable produce bins available for The Downtown Farm Stand owners Sara and Dave Ring. delivery, ranging in price from $35 (Submitted photo) for the small produce bin (including culture, the land and our traditions.

Riverview donation allows Conner Prairie to purchase AEDs news@currentinfishers Riverview Health and Urgent Care recently donated $5,000 to Fishers-based the historical museum Conner Prairie to allow the organization to house automated external defibrillators, or AEDs, throughout the complex in case any guests or staff experience a sudden cardiac arrest.

“Riverview Health ER & Urgent Care is proud to be able to supply AEDs to Conner Prairie. These are important tools to have in public spaces,” Riverview Health President and CEO Seth Warren stated. “While part of our efforts to support the health and safety of Hamilton County focus on taking care of our current patients, we also understand that should an immediate emergency like cardiac arrest arise, Hoosiers should have access to technology that can ultimately save their lives. We’re proud to support Conner Prairie for their endeavors to educate,

entertain, and most importantly, find opportunities to ensure public safety.”

Training is offered for AEDs, but it is not required to use the device. Once a device is turned on, users can follow the voice prompts to properly administer care. Included with the device are padded electrodes, an adapter and a battery.

Conner Prairie purchased five AEDs with the funds.

“Providing proper equipment and medical emergency plans for our guests is top priority at Conner Prairie,” Conner Prairie President and CEO Norman Burns stated.

“We want everyone to have an enjoyable experience, but sometimes the unexpected happens. Emergencies like cardiac arrest are never planned, and to be able to implement devices with the help of Riverview Health ER & Urgent Care to save the lives of our community members is tremendous.”

An Indiana fall: Spend a day or a weekend in Brown County Commentary by Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com With the first day of fall being Sept. 22, we are all certain to see leaves starting to change to yellows and VACATION reds and experience brisker mornings and cooler evenings. For families that are looking for a fall break trip or just a weekend getaway but are worried about social distancing due to the COVID-19 pandemic, look no further than Brown County.

I recently had the opportunity to visit Hard Truth Hills Tours and Tasting Center and Big Woods’ The Original Restaurant.

Hard Truth Hills offers an ATV tour through its hundreds of acres of property at $45 a person. The tour includes plenty of drinks (Hard Truth Hills staff are eager to say “you drink, we drive”) and a rolling, often bumpy and always exhilarating ride through the woods that stops at Shiner’s Creek, a moonshiner’s camp; Prohibition Point, a speakeasy in the woods; and Beer Bluff, a beautiful swing set-up where patrons can swing with a view overlooking one of Brown County’s beautiful forests.

There are drinks at each stop, and it was an incredibly fun experience. ATV tours can be booked through October, and they fill up quickly, so jump on it. Back at the tasting center, I suggest you take the $15, 25-minute tour of the distillery that includes a three-part tasting of Hard Truth Distilling Co.’s spirits and a Hard Truth Mason jar keepsake. Head distiller Bryan Smith did an excellent job educating me on the processes of making different spirits, and it was an incredibly educational tour.

I also had the chance to visit the distillery’s warehouse, where it ages rye and bourbon. Stepping into the warehouse was an incredible experience, where the smell of swollen, saturated white oak barrels filled the space, and barrels were stacked to the ceiling along both sides. I sampled a young rye whiskey straight from the barrel. Although the tasting part of that tour may not be available to the public, I can

assure you when that rye properly ages, it’ll be terrific.

For dinner, I visited The Original — which is a branch of the Big Woods Restaurant Group but features classy comfort food not on the menu at Big Woods restaurants. At The Original, I sampled deviled eggs with fresh herb-infused filling, smoked paprika, thick-cut bacon and pickled tomatoes ($8); the pimento cheese dip, which was quite possibly my favorite item ever with herb naan bread and smoked paprika ($11); flash-fried Brussels sprouts with a honey sriracha glaze ($9); half of a honey-brined fried chicken with cayenne honey and bread-and-butter pickles ($14); the whiskey burger, which was stacked with a white cheddar-stuffed patty with a whiskey glaze, caramelized onions, garlic aioli and arugula ($15); the Molly’s Garden, which is a wild mushroom strudel with warm Green

Goddess dressing and a root vegetable hash ($13); the peach bourbon crown sugar cobbler ($9); and fried biscuits with a Hard Truth toasted coconut rum butter sauce drizzle and apple butter ($7).

Hard Truth Hills and Big Woods Restaurant Group is an excellent day trip for a couple looking for a romantic and adventurous date or a group of friends looking to have some fun. I only suggest you take a nice, long walk around Nashville’s picturesque downtown shops before driving home after eating all that food.

Commentary by Anna Skinner Address: 13255 Levinson Lane, Noblesville What to get: Corn empanadas Price: $9 Anna’s take: Livery is a Latin American-inspired restaurant that recently opened its second location in Hamilton Town Center in Noblesville. I tried several items during a soft-opening preview, and I was thoroughly impressed with everything. My favorite item was the corn empanadas, little fried pillows stuffed with truffle, cheddar and corn with a side of jalapeno crema for dipping. I’m still thinking about those empanadas. They were that good. Three empanadas come per order. Another item to try is the picada, a Mexican version of a charcuterie board. At $17, the picada is a great sharable dish that features a spread of pork belly, Serrano ham,

Suggested pairings: I always enjoy a margarita when I indulge in Latin American food, so check out the Carriage House ($13).

It’s a margarita with Gran Centenario Anejo Tequila, orange brandy, lime and agave.

Durango: Railroader enthusiasts’ paradise Commentary by Don Knebel Colorado is home to many historic mining towns. Durango is world famous among those interested in railroading TRAVEL and its history.

In 1870, the Denver & Rio Grande (D&RG) Railway began laying a network of narrow-gauge tracks throughout Colorado, the 3-foot distance between the rails (compared to the standard 4-foot-8 1/2) facilitating sharp turns in the mountains. In 1873, miners discovered gold along the Animas River in southwest Colorado, just north of the border with New Mexico. To support the mining activities, D&RG established a depot along the river at the foot of the San Juan Mountains. A town quickly grew up around the depot, which was organized in 1880 and named Durango after a city in Mexico. In late 1881, D&RG began laying track between Durango and Silverton, a silver and gold mining town, completing the 45 miles through the mountains in only nine months.

In 1981, with mining activities in the area largely discontinued, D&RG sold the stretch from Durango to Silverton, which became known as the Durango & Silverton Narrow

Today, Durango, with a population of about 18,000, is a year-round tourist destination. The D&SNG Railroad owns and operates meticulously restored and maintained steam-powered locomotives, built in the 1920s or earlier. Until service was suspended because of the novel coronavirus, D&SNG Railroad operated daily passenger train runs between Durango and Silverton, passing through the spectacular scenery of the San Juan National Forest. The trains depart from the original depot. A 12,000-squarefoot museum near the depot, open free
