HSE schools referendum approved by voters

By Sam Elliott “ bP\/h^dPaTRdaaT]c R^\ The Hamilton Southeastern School District’s tax referendum was approved EDUCATION by area voters May 3 as the measure was passed with 71.42 percent of the vote.

The district saw 23,380 votes cast in favor of and 9,356 votes against the seven-year referendum, which will impose a tax rate not to exceed 22.75 cents per $100 of assessed home value. “It's nice to have the confidence of the community — 71 percent was just more than we had imagined, and that kind of approval says that

there's a lot of confidence,�

HSE Supt. Dr. Allen Bourff said. “That just raises the stakes a bit higher for the response that we make in terms of the action planning to put this referendum to its best purpose.�

Bourff The money raised via the referendum will bring HSE’s total funding to just above the state average with the goals of reducing class sizes, attracting and retaining quality teachers and preparing students for global competition. “The next step — and it begins (May 4) — is to

meet with all the central office people who are assigned to put into place some of the different initiatives, for example human resources will be posting jobs beginning (May 4) so we're able to get those out and advertised and filled as soon as possible,� Bourff said. “The business office will be putting together bid approval requests for the school board to consider that would put portable classrooms in place for next fall. Our curriculum people will start meeting (May 4) to start the process of designing a world language program with the additional personnel we'll have for that. We have a full slate of items to accomplish.�

Maintaining quality of parks key for city’s future This is the fourth entry in a Current in Geist series on the city’s Fishers 2040 comprehensive plan, this week covering the chapter of the plan focusing on parks and open space.

By Sam Elliott “ bP\/h^dPaTRdaaT]c R^\ Fishers’ parks system already receives one level of planning for the near future thanks to the parks and recreation FISHERS 2040 department’s facilities plan, but now the city is looking ahead more than two decades with its Fishers 2040 comprehensive plan — and the top priority for its parks is to be able to maintain the quality they’ve already achieved. “In our community survey, McGrath 49 percent rated our parks system as excellent, and 47 percent rated it as good,� Fishers Deputy Mayor Leah McGrath said. “So, my takeaway was we have really excellent parks, and for us moving forward, our goal is to sustain that for the long term.�

Coble In order to do that, the Fishers 2040 parks and open space task force identified key items vital for the longevity of the parks system, including additional land, more connectivity between recreation destinations and parks designed with more than one purpose in mind. “Looking at the expected population growth, we're definitely going to need more park land, task force co-chair and city councilor Cecilia Coble said. “We surveyed residents to see if they were utilizing our parks, and what are some of the amenities they'd like to see. We took that and determined that in the future, what people want are both active and passive parks, and they want

This map shows the city’s current and proposed future bicycle and pedestrian paths connecting Fishers’ parks and resources. (Submitted map)

to have the ability to have flexibility in use as our community needs change.�

The parks and open space task force was co-chaired by Krieg DeVault partner Rodney Retzner and also included Conner Prairie’s Vice President of Exhibits, Programs and Facilities Cathy Ferree, Meyer Najem President Tim Russell, Britton Falls HOA representative John Amos, Boomerang Development owner Corby Thompson, Propeller Marketing owner Jocelyn Vare and Hamilton Southeastern High School senior Natalie Teyema.

In order to maintain the city’s desired ratio of 6.75 acres of parkland per 1,000 residents through 2040, Fishers may need to acquire

more than 300 additional acres of land.

And in an effort to keep its parkland and open spaces more interconnected, the plan proposes additional bicycle and pedestrian paths into the city’s network while requiring neighborhoods to link their perimeter paths into one another and to nearby resources.

Continuing to develop parks with more than one use and year-round possibilities was another of McGrath’s focus points, and Coble added mobile apps and wifi hotspots could help residents better navigate Fishers’ park system into the future.

A draft of the full Fishers 2040 comprehensive plan is available at Fishers2040.com.

Geist area’s ‘Chef Suzanne’ caters to all

for

Thought

By Sam Elliott “ bP\/h^dPaTRdaaT]c R^\ Suzanne Rockwell didn’t always set out to be a master chef cooking up hundreds of meals any COVER STORY given day, but that’s what the Lawrence resident has found herself doing since founding her career’s latest endeavor — Chef Suzanne Catering — in 2009. “First and foremost I'm an entrepreneur,� Rockwell said. “When I was in college, I purchased a retail store from the man I had worked for back in the ’80s, and we expanded that over 15 years and put commercial kitchens in them.

With each city or state we went into, I hired a chef to manage the store’s cooking school.

This was before The Food Network‌ That's where I learned to love to cook, from the Rockwell chefs that would come into the stores.�

After 20 years of owning her elegant shops and working with chefs, Rockwell spent four and a half years in the business world working for shoe retailer Finish Line. “They were getting ready to launch their website and nobody in house at Finish Line believed that people would want to buy shoes online,� she said. “And I knew nothing about shoes, but they knew I was entrepreneurial, so they hired me, and I stepped away from cooking.�

Upon her return to cooking, Rockwell worked as a private chef out of her own home before working in area restaurant kitchens. When the restaurant where she and coworker to this day Vicki Smith worked was abruptly closed in 2009, Rockwell founded Chef Suzanne Catering. “The one thing that was keeping that restaurant going was all the catering I was doing, so I figured, 'Well, let's cater,'� she said. “We started out in the little kitchen in the Sterrett Center over in Fort Ben. The City of Lawrence allowed us to rent that kitchen, and we outgrew that kitchen in a couple years, so we moved over to Indiana Lake Golf Club.�

From there, the business moved into the kitchens at Geist Christian Church before Rockwell found the company’s current home at 9623 Windemere Blvd. in Fishers, where she built the

Chef Suzanne Rockwell hosted a healthy cooking demonstration at last year’s WTHR health fair.

cooking and event-hosting space in 2014. “This was just a shell with a gravel floor, which was great because I had architectural plans and knew just what I wanted to do,� Rockwell said.

Chef Suzanne Catering caters to all needs, from cooking a handful of meals per week for families to large-scale corporate events. “We also have an athlete division where we have had or currently have several Pacers players, Colts players or MLB players when they're here for training that we cook for,� Rockwell said. “Then we'll do parties in people's homes, too, where we'll send a chef out to someone's home for a private dinner party in their home and cook in their kitchen. We make our space here available too for cooking classes, team-building 'Chopped' style of competitions where people have fun and get competi-

tive and scream and yell — it's really fun.�

The staff of five chefs plus office, delivery and event serving personnel have developed strong chemistry after years of working and cooking together. “We're really lean and mean for the amount of food we put out,� Rockwell said. “We’ve all worked together for a while now.

We haven’t had much turnover. “During the week, we could be serving 100 to 150 different corporate meals, there's usually 12 to 15 families we feed every day, two or three professional athletes and then we could have a private event in someone's home,� she added of the group’s workload.

Chef Suzanne Catering also volunteers its services to a collection of charitable organizations, food banks, the local YMCA and Metropolitan School District of Lawrence Township. “The charity work we do — my accountant will tell you I do way too much and give away too much — but it makes me feel good and makes my staff feel great,â€? Rockwell said. “Our biggest project this year we've taken on is Harrison Hill Elementary School. Every Tuesday and Thursday night they have Family Enrichment Nights. The problem they were having was feeding people‌ We just took it over. We’re feeding 200 people a week and then we gave them a steam table and some equipment they could use. “We do stuff with the schools, the Y — we just do a lot of stuff with feeding people,â€? she added. “If a food pantry sends out an SOS, we'll donate and then serve as a collection place for people to drop off. Nobody should go hungry and there's such a need for food.â€?

Detecting nutrient deficiencies Commentary by Devina Prasad, MD While the human body is an incredible machine, it relies on many things to keep it running and in top form.

NUTRITION In fact, our bodies need so many vitamins, minerals and other nutrients, it can be hard to tell if something’s lacking unless we’re aware of the signs. Here are some tips for detecting common deficiencies.

Vitamin D Muscle weakness, chronic pain, joint pain and fatigue can be subtle signs of a Vitamin D deficiency. A lack of Vitamin D puts kids at risk of respiratory disease and for children with asthma, the disease can worsen. To ensure you get enough Vitamin D, venture outdoors on sunny days. The more you’re exposed to sunlight, the more Vitamin D your body produces.

Iron Eating foods such as leafy green vegetables, legumes, beans and liver will help ensure your body has the iron it needs. Bruising, hair loss, fatigue, brittle nails, sore muscles and pale skin are some signals you may be iron deficient.

Dehydration With summer approaching, avoiding de-

hydration is even more important. Signs you need to drink more water include dry mouth, decreased sweating, lightheadedness and dark, scant urine.

Electrolytes Electrolytes – calcium, potassium, magnesium, phosphate chlorine and others – are minerals needed for muscle and nerve function and to balance body fluids. Excessive heat, sweating, vomiting and diarrhea can cause an electrolyte imbalance. Signs include muscle cramps, fatigue, dizziness, low blood pressure, increased heart rate, confusion and loss of consciousness (in extreme cases). You can prevent an electrolyte imbalance by staying hydrated and eating a balanced diet.

It’s important to note that the signs and symptoms mentioned above can be caused by a variety of conditions. That’s why it’s important to consult with your doctor when new symptoms occur to determine the cause.

Zika expected to be limited

By Mark Ambrogi “ \PaZ/h^dPaTRdaaT]c R^\ Mosquitoes B-Gone owner David Simons doesn’t expect any major outbreak of the Zika virus in Indiana.

YOUR HEALTH The Zika virus is primarily spread by Aedes aegypi mosquitoes. “The reason the professionals don’t think Zika is going to make it into Indiana very much is they (the mosquitoes) don’t do winter very well,� said Simons, a Fishers resident, who co-owns the business with his wife, Angela. “They don’t continue to multiply (in cold weather). When you go to Louisiana or Florida, they multiply like crazy all year around. Therefore, they’ll get that mosquito down there a lot more than we will.�

Simons said Aedes aegypi mosquitoes are slow movers, but will likely get to Indiana. The biggest threat is pregnant women passing the virus to their fetus, and the effects it might have. The virus has been linked to microcephaly in infants whose mother contacted the virus. Simons said adults are getting Guillain-Barre syndrome, a rare disorder where the body’s immune system attacks the nervous system, from Zika.Â

Owners of Mosquitoes B-Gone Angela and David Simons. (Submitted photo)

Simons said a big part of what his business does is inspect properties, removing breeding sites and treating. All mosquitoes lay their eggs in water. “The Aedes aegypi breed in low grounds so they breed under your deck, in your flower pots, in your kids’ toys that have water in them, in your gutters,� Simons said.

Pool covers and tarps can also hold water, creating a breeding ground. “It takes seven days to breed so if you get rid of that water, you’re not creating a breeding ground,� Simons said. “People forget about their bird baths. They forgot about kiddie pools.�

FROM THE BACKSHOP

Persuasion is powerful tool In the wake of Donald Trump’s presumptive nomination for the Republican entry into the presidential election, there has come the usual analysis. It’s mostly what we expected. “Trump’s gonna have his hands full.� “(Hillary Rodham) Clinton is going to take the full measure of Trump.� “She’s gonna make him choke on his past.� Putting those obvious comments aside, Scott Adams, the creator of Dilbert, took us with his own analysis. In short, he wrote he believes Trump’s methods of persuasion are genius, even though Adams is not a Trump supporter. He predicted last August that Trump would win the election. “I can’t make this post appear balanced because Clinton is making big mistakes on the persuasion dimension, while Trump is being his usual skillful self,� Adams wrote. We urge you to read his insights, which we find extremely interesting, at blog.dilbert.com. “ “ “ Sky News appeared at Current Publishing to quiz us on the mood of the area and what might have led to Trump’s presumptive nomination. Like we’re experts? Ha! Need to aim higher, gents! We very much enjoyed their company and off-camera chats about the political climates in England, where scores worship the queen, and here in ‘Merica, where scores worship the Kardashians. “ “ “ To those of you that got out and voted last week, congratulations. As to those that decided not to vote, or weren’t able to vote, there’s still November’s General Election Day, so you still have a chance to make a difference.

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

At death’s door Commentary by Terry Anker They say bad news comes in three. First, who is “they?� And second, who made “them� the arbiters of bulletin delivery? Yet, like so many of the old-saw populating our common lexicon, these often seem true. As the gloomy tidings roll in, we live in foreboding, expecting the next dark messenger to arrive. And with the appearance of the third in our unhappy trinity, we relax to enjoy our false security that the worst is over.

As is the nature of things, as we age, those we love age along with us. With the surprise passing of yet another decade, we are taking careful note of the face in the mirror but often ignore the deepening lines in the faces of our parents, grandparents, and other loved ones. We humans have a sell-by date. It is often not readily apparent, but don’t doubt its presence. Our lives can list from robust to decline in an instant.

Last week, a close friend lost her battle to a mean cancer, leaving her young daugh-

ter, despairing husband and family absent understanding. This week, a dear aunt finally let go of a life that had shifted from joy to burden – as the advancing years stripped her memories along with so much dignity.

And then, a close cousin, almost exactly my age, reached out to let us know he’d decided to discontinue his cancer treatment and hope for the best. Life, he said, was not meant to be lived as he was being forced to endure it.

While most of us, happily, will not darken death’s door for quite some time, why is it that death is so pleased to show up, uninvited, bringing the bereavement to us? With death comes longing and sadness, but also is delivered a seed of hope. Why wouldn’t we plant it?

QUOTE OF THE WEEK When you get to the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on.

– Thomas Jefferson

Only two of our children inherited my ginger genes, but unfortunately, all four have what we like to call “BritHUMOR ish teeth.� Thankfully, modern orthodontics can easily fix cramped mouths and overlapping shark-row chompers, though it usually entails more than just braces for us Wilsons. Namely, the extraction of four or more teeth. Our oldest daughter actually had to have 11 out before donning the metal. Eleven! (That’s one louder, by the way.)

Last week, our youngest was up to bat, needing several uppers and lowers pulled, and as we did with her siblings, we supported her decision to receive mild sedation. We had fun predicting how she would react to the drugs. Our other kids have run the gamut from uncontrollable giggling at literally nothing to prolonged weeping over the perceived loss of a chin. Since Maddie tends to have a flair for the dramatic anyway, I anticipated she would lean towards the emotional.

That proved to be the understatement of the year. From the moment I helped her out of the wheelchair into the car, all the way through the Steak ‘n Shake drive-thru for the prescribed milkshake, the entire length of my run-in to CVS for painkillers, to when we pulled into the driveway 45 minutes later, this child was sobbing.

First it was because her phone was out of memory, and the planned video recording of her post-medication antics had to be scrapped. (No worries, I used mine. It’s priceless!) Next, she was upset because she couldn’t remember falling asleep, and then she became distraught because she was drooling her strawberry/chocolate side-by-side all over her shirt. Finally, she mourned the fact that she could not feel her mouth.

As her mother, I was both enormously entertained and legitimately concerned, but eventually, I was just plain exhausted. I ended up taking a nap alongside my daughter after we’d both recovered from the morning’s shenanigans Peace out.

A fishy story, healthy or not?

Commentary by Dick Wolfsie Scientists now claim pecans (my favorite) may not be as healthy to consume as previously believed. Just when I think HUMOR I’m eating the right stuff, some nut comes along and ruins everything.

Coffee was reported to be bad for us, and then studies said it was good for us. No matter, it’s all going to change again, anyway.

A health alert this week took the cake.

Cake, by the way, is not good for us, unless it’s chocolate, which has aphrodisiac qualities.

But chocolate also has caffeine, which is bad for us (unless it’s the same amount of caffeine that was good for us if we were drinking coffee before August of 2007.)

Now, I read that salmon contains too much mercury, even though it contains beneficial Omega fatty acids. I’ve been chowing down on anything that swims upstream to die: Coho, Chinook, King, Alaskan pink and sockeye. If my heart wasn’t bright red before, it is now.

Then I saw this headline last week in USA Today: FARMED SALMON MORE DANGEROUS TO EAT THAN WILD SALMON Statistics can be misleading. For example,

did they take into account that some of those people fishing for wild salmon were eaten by bears? That kind of data gets lost in those fancy university studies.

My doctor said I could eliminate salmon from my diet and instead swallow fish oil pills, which are made from Docosapentaenoic Acid.

Let’s see, lox and bagels or Docosapentaenoic Acid and bagels? There are no easy choices in life.

By the way, I never believed the findings that eating fish regularly was good for your memory. In high school, I ate fish sticks three days a week and tuna sandwiches on weekends. Then in college, I spent half my waking hours looking for my car, my spiral notebook or my wallet.

I also couldn’t find a date.

This morning, I had smoked salmon on a bagel and for dessert, a handful of chocolatecovered pecans. See you next week … if I live that long.

Where’s Amy? I loved attending Civic Theatre’s backstage exclusive of “Fiddler on the Roof.� Guests had the opportunity to be on the Civic stage and get a sneak peek at the secrets behind the scenes, which included the green room, prop room and dressing rooms. Civic staff members were also on hand to answer questions while guests were enjoying local craft beers at each stop along the way. I enjoyed samples from Flix Brewhouse in Carmel and Four Day Ray, which is coming soon to Fishers.

Simply delish! Be sure to check out Civic Theatre’s 2016-17 schedule at civictheatre.org.

Kroger lunchtime entertainment is unexpected

By Heather Lusk “ ]Tfb/VTXbcRdaaT]c R^\ Heavenly notes from a harp float through the aisles of the Carmel Kroger as a Metallica song gives way to “Hotel California� for the MUSIC lunch crowd at the store’s Carmel Bistro Cafe.

Harpist Jan Aldridge-Clark and guitarist Casey Harshbarger, who lived in Zionsville as a child, form a duet of stringed music that catches many Kroger customers off guard. “People are so surprised when they hear the harp played in a funky way,� Aldridge-Clark said.

Harshbarger and Aldridge-Clark met five years ago through an audition. They liked the way the guitar and harp sounded together and began to experiment with different arrangements. Harshbarger influenced her to move into classic rock, which is a substantial portion of what they play to the Kroger lunch crowd, along with more recent artists, like Adele, and other styles, like blues.

Two years ago, the duo was performing a private party at which a Kroger vice president was

attending.

He said, “you guys would be perfect for Kroger,’� Aldridge-Clark said. When the opportunity came to fruition AldridgeClark was pleasantly surprised. “No musician imagines playing in a grocery store,� she said.

But regulars come to hear them play each week, and they frequently perform to big crowds. “We’re riding the wave,� she said. “We’ll just do it as long as they want us to be there. It’s been really great because we get a lot of positive response from people.�

They will play several days each week in May and said they hope to continue through the summer. Aldridge-Clark earned her masters of education in classical music, and was trained on the piano, but discovered the harp her freshman year and “fell in love with it.� As a harpist, she had the opportunity to travel the world through her work with a cruise line and perform at private parties while living in Los Angeles.

Carmel native brings band home

By Mark Ambrogi “ \PaZ/h^dPaTRdaaT]c R^\ Singer-songwriter Todd Carter took one look at The Warehouse and figured it was the perfect place for a homecoming.

MUSIC “When I saw that space, I said, ‘This looks like an amazing place to have a concert,’� the 1987 Carmel High School graduate said. “Then I saw some of the people who have been coming through playing there. I expect it to be a really nice crowd.�

Carter and his New York City-based band, The Looking, will appear at 7 p.m. May 21 at The Warehouse, 254 First Ave. S.W., Carmel. “A lot of people from (Indiana) have never seen me perform,� Carter said. “I’ve been in Chicago and around the East Coast, but I haven’t played in Carmel for a long time. I don’t think (I have) played there since college.�

The band recently released its fourth album, “Lead Me to The Water.� Carter describes the band’s music as a folk-pop combination. “We’ll deliver at least 90 minutes of tunes, a couple of different sets,� said Carter, whose band is touring the Midwest in support of the album. “The Looking is my project, and I bring in people as I see fit.�

Carter, 47, was a member of the CHS 1986 Class 5A state championship football team.

Todd Carter, a 1987 Carmel High School graduate, will perform at The Warehouse May 21 with his band, The Looking.

(Submitted photo)

His band, Bluko Chip Tones, won the CHS Battle of the Bands in 1987. Carter said he began writing songs as a teenager. “I’ve always played in bands where we are writing our own material,� he said. “That was the main focus of each of the bands. It’s been a folk-rock focus most of the time.�

His parents, Meredith and Nellie Carter, still live in Carmel. Meredith served 32 years on the Hamilton Co. Council before retiring in 2014. The band’s production company rented The Warehouse for the concert.

CYT announces new season ]Tfb/VTXbcRdaaT]c R^\ Christian Youth Theater, a northeast Indianapolis children’s theater has announced its upcoming season.

THEATER CYT’s actors range in age from 8 to 18. Classes and summer camps are also offered for ages 4 to 18. CYT prides itself not only on its professional-quality productions, but also on building self-esteem, public speaking talent and team-building in its students. “I’m always amazed by what CYT does with these kids. The professionalism amazes me,� stated Tony Johnson, assistant director of CYT’s “Mary Poppins,� which opens this June at Westfield High School. “We’re so excited about this season. It’s challenging, it’s fun, and it has great music,� stated CYT’s Artistic Director Angela Manlove. “We’re doing a straight play, without music, for the first time this year,� said CYT’s Managing Director Laura Baltz. “That’s an exciting addition for our students that (provides a) way to really focus on their acting without singing and dancing. It’s a great way for them to really stretch themselves artistically.�

Blueprint for Improvement: Outdoor space created for sun and shade Commentary by Larry Greene

AFTER SOLUTIONS:

After

The goal was to create versatile outdoor living spaces, both covered and uncovered, for the homeowners to enjoy throughout the seasons.

1. A new, screened porch was added to the home, including matching brick border to tie into the existing home.

2. From there, the homeowners can step into their backyard onto their new concrete patio that connects to the front of the house. The brick border inlay around the concrete ties into the faรงade of the existing home.

3. A stone, wood-burning fireplace was included in the covered porch design, making a cozy place to relax after work.

4. A large built-in grill peninsula on the patio is a usable new feature, allowing the new space to be transformed into a great entertainment area.

Before Background info: This 2010-built home in the Long Ridge Estates subdivision in Westfield needed an outdoor space the homeowners could enjoy: Both in the sun and in the shade.

BEFORE PROBLEMS: The existing backyard received harsh sun in the afternoon hours and had only a small crowded deck, making it unpleasant for the homeowners to enjoy the outdoors at their own home. With no covered structure, they were also confined to the indoors during any type of rain.
