Crime watch meeting draws a crowd

By James Feichtner • james@youarecurrent.com

School isn’t quite back in session, but one room of the Metropolitan School District of Lawrence Township building was safety packed with more than 60 people on the evening of July 21. Dozens of Geist residents gathered to participate in the community’s first-ever Geist Crime Watch Meeting as law enforcement officials from Geist Patrol, Lawrence, Indianapolis Metropolitan and Fishers police departments spoke on issues regarding crime in the Geist area.

Officials spoke about their departments, analytics, recent crimes, problem areas and causes and prevention of crimes.

“The crimes that I saw were mostly property crimes, theft from vehicles and other types of larceny. A lot of your crime is driven by, in my opinion, the increased use in heroin. It affects all demographics. If [addicts] don’t have access to money then the only way to get that is by robbing and stealing from [residents].”

Other law enforcement officials also cited drug use as having a strong correlation to crime within the area. While it was not subjective to one region, criminals target areas such as surrounding neighborhoods as ways to pay for their narcotic addiction.

“We have people that are predators traveling around your neighborhoods, not just the Geist neighborhoods, not just around the lake, not just in Lawrence, not just in Fishers, but they are crossing all geographic boundaries looking for a fix and they are willing to come into your house in the middle of the night when you forget to shut your garage door or set your alarm,” Jim Cleek of the Indianapolis Metro Police Department said.

Another problem officials say has increased recently is criminals posing as solicitors.

“All of us have a lot of solicitors coming to our homes,” Cleek said. “We’ve found plenty of solicitors that are not legit. [Criminals] are using the cover of ‘I’m a carpet cleaner,’ or ‘I sell sweepers’ or an exterminator company. They talk to you and

Fishers Police Department’s Tom Weger speaks to residents on burglary prevention safety measures.

they scout out your house. We’ve had incidences this year where on multiple jurisdictions they’ve been marking houses.”

Officials recommended that if a solicitor does seem suspicious to contact local law enforcement, also noting that in any suspicious circumstance communication with police is key to keeping the community safe.

“We want to engage with you,” Fishers police officer Tom Weger said. “We want to educate you. We want to know what’s going on in your neighborhoods and we want to be able to let you know what we’re seeing and we need to have information back from you.”

“If we can just keep everyone calling; we count on you,” owner of Geist Patrol Brent McFerran said. “If it’s suspicious to you, it’s suspicious to us. So don’t hesitate.

We’ve heard for years, ‘we don’t want to bother you.’

Well, bother us. That is what we are here for. We’ll come out to your residence and check it out.”

Another topic covered at the meeting was how to avoid becoming targets for burglary. “[Criminals] want the path of least resistance and so I would just ask that we all raise our situational awareness and realize that there are people out there that are just waiting to hit our house, our car or us if we make ourselves an easy target,” Cleek said. “Find ways to make yourselves a harder target. Shut garage doors.

Turn on alarms. Lock doors.”

Veteran nominations – The Indiana Military Veterans Hall of Fame is calling for nominations for its second group of honorees. Up to 15 veterans will be honored for military service achievements and/or community contributions. The nomination packet and criteria can be found at www.imvhof. com Nominations will be accepted through end of day Aug. 1.

Continue a season of love Commentary by Rev. Michael VandenBerg Summer is the busiest time of the year for weddings. Between May and September, churches, caterers, photogreligion raphers and reception halls all gear up for the deluge of couples wanting to express their love for one another and by getting married.

I love to see the promise in the eyes of young couples anticipating their new life together. In spite of all we hear about the decline of marriage, we still have over two million people (according to the CDC) get married every year. Over 80 percent of those are getting married for the first time.

The sad part is that the divorce rate averages around 48 percent. Why do so many get divorced when they start out so in love? Well part of the problem may well be how we have come to define love.

Love in the media age can be defined as a strong sexual attraction, positive emotions or pleasure, the warm feelings we have for another or the affection of a special friend.

As you can see, much of this is the romantic/ emotional kind of love that we read in books, see in movies or hear in music.

But love need not be only subjective, but

can also have a more definable meaning as we find in the writings of the Apostle Paul.

“Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs.

Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.”

If we want marriage to last, then we need to learn how to love. If we want to truly love, then we need to look out for the needs of the one we love, even above our own. Imagine if every marriage looked out for the good of their spouse in everything they did, far more than they were concerned about their own needs. Help America show true love and build a strong season of love by learning how to do it the lasting way.

Fishers City Council recap

Plus Come See Our Outdoor Grilling Demo

Compiled by James Feichtner

A request to approve a text amendment regarding the proposed Saxony sports complex facility was presented to the council. The amendment regards changes to the density requirements in order to allow for flexibility in its development. The amendment also dealt with the parking plan regarding the complex’s mixed-use facilities, arena and future hotels, office and retail nearby. The amendment would increase maximum parking to approximately 1,900 spaces.

Why it matters: The increase in parking and density will allow the proposed sports complex to properly accommodate visitors of its on-site facilities and nearby commercial developments. Council approved the text amendment.

A request to approve a resolution regarding an economic development agreement that the Town of Fishers entered into with Fishers Automotive Property, LLC in May of 2010 was presented to the council. Fishers Automotive was to develop a new auto mall along the west side of Ind. 37. As part of the project, both the town and Fishers Automotive committed to certain infrastructure improvements that would open the area to future development.

Why it matters: The EDA stated that Fishers Automotive must acquire any parcels in the Fishers Automotive allocation area prior to January 15, 2014, or they would be removed from the Fishers Automotive AA. That deadline has passed and the City is executing the terms of the agreement. This amendment will move any parcels not acquired or developed by Fishers Automotive Property, LLC or affiliates and place them into the Ind. 37 allocation area.

A request to approve a rezone of the Prairie Guest House from residential to commercial zoning was presented to the council.

Why it matters: The rezone comes in response to the owners of PGH wanting to expand its uses to include a yoga studio, a restaurant and a special event venue in its barn to hold events such as wedding receptions, fundraisers and reunions. Additionally, they would like to have a chicken coop of less than 20 chickens. The council approved the request.

Geist resident talks Catholic faith on the air

By Renee Larr • news@geistcurrent.com MJ Krauter, answers to a boss bigger than most when she’s at work. Krauter, a Geist resident, hosts a radio show called cover story Faith in Action on 89.1 and 90.9 Catholic Radio. Her show airs two times every day. It’s a local program that focuses on how people of faith are putting their ideas to help others to action.

“Since it’s local programming I really concentrate heavily on local people. It’s people who have made a difference in the community with their faith,” Krauter said.

The concept of a Catholic radio station was relatively new when Krauter heard about the idea from a friend.

“About 11 years ago a good friend of mine and her husband through prayer and lots of discernment decided to bring Catholic radio to Indianapolis,” she said. “She put out an email plea for volunteers. At the time I had five little rug rats around my ankles but I wanted to help and volunteer.”

Within months Krauter went from volunteering to handle the bookkeeping to being a paid parttime employee.

“I was here so much they asked if they could put me on the payroll. In a matter of three months I went from volunteering to a paid position. The reason I loved it was because they knew I had little kids so it was a job I could come in anytime,” Krauter said.

She filled in as host one day for a co-worker who was stuck and couldn’t get to the office. She felt guided by her guardian angel. While she wasn’t the first to create the concept of Faith in Action she has managed to put her own unique twist on the show—a woman’s voice. The idea behind the show is simple—to uplift and inspire.

“I think people need to be encouraged. So many people get discouraged so easily. I think all of us are searching for that light and that truth. What I want is to encourage you and give you that bright spot. We all need to moved to be moved to action,” Krauter said.

The show is marketed toward Catholics in vari-

ous publications throughout Indianapolis but resonates with people of all faiths.

“It might take you a while to realize it’s Catholic. We’re not teaching doctrines and dogmas.

You wouldn’t really know unless you hear me ask what parish you belong to…how this is faith based,” Krauter said. “It’s about how are you connecting with people and making this world better.”

She feels there is one underlying commonality between her guests.

“I always ask how they get into,what they’re doing, what were the seeds, where did it start. One thing that is the same in every story,” she said.

“They were always hungry for something more.

Every single person.”

Krauter has learned the art of interviewing technique throughout the years.

“Many people come through that door nervous about being on the radio. There are two things that are true…when you’re talking about yourself you’re not nervous and when you’re talking about something you’re passionate about the time goes by like that,” she said.

With all her children grown Krater still loves the flexibility of her radio show. She can record the shows in advance which allows her to work on her own schedule. The flexibility allows her to babysit her grandson.

Krauter feels compelled by a higher power to tell people’s stories.

“I feel such a connection with humanity, our community and God when I do this show. And let’s face it. We’re all in this together. We all want to get to heaven and we all want better for each other.

We all want to feel connected. I love that about this show. Ordinary people do something a little extraordinary. I’m always thinking what more little thing can I do. There are so many people who have done such incredible things. They took one step they were open to the possibilities of what they could accomplish. That’s why I do it. I love hearing stories. It’s always an interesting story,” Krauter said.

All about MJ Favorite thing about living in Geist: “It’s like living in a state park! Beautiful tress everywhere and breathtaking water views,” she stated.

Favorite restaurant in Geist area: “Definite tie between The Grill (where everyone know your name and the pork tenderloin can’t be beat!) and Puccinis on Sunnyside because it’s where everyone goes after Saterday evening Mass at St. Simon’s. The staff is like family and the pizza is consistently superb!”

Husband: Chris, married for 35 years Kids: Sam (Lyndsay and our grandson, Jude) 32; Anna 30; Rafe 26; Emily 24 and Elle 20. Sam and Rafe work for the family business. Anna is a nurse in private practice. Emily is a grad student at Ole Miss. Elle is at the Jacobs school of Music at IU. Pets: two cats ...Harry and Izzy and one dog..Wrigley (all rescues) Dream vacation destination: “Hawaii,” MJ stated. “We’ve been all over the world, but this one is STILL at the top of my bucket list!”

Interesting fact: “Well most people know that I’m number 12 out of 14 children, but not many know that I got to interview “Dear Abby” (the late Abigail Van Buren) when I was on the newspaper staff in High School. What a thrill! She definitely helped to encourage my journalistic aspirations.”

Where’s Amy? ‘Where’s Amy?’ is a photo column by Amy Pauszek, a society girl and film producer with Ever Film Productions. She may be reached at aepaws1@comcast.net.

Always fun to catch up with the dynamic duo of Steve and Lori Anzalone, of Carmel. I met them at the Heartland Film Festival years ago where their daughter Molly screened her film. The Anzalone’s said they like to support the arts by attending different film festival and also love Current.

“Where’s Amy?” enjoyed chatting with Carmel/Muncie filmmaker Forest Etsler (middle) and his brother Jesse Etsler and cousin Marc Akers, both from Carmel.

“Where’s Amy?” She was checking out the 2015 Indy Film Festival at the Indianapolis Museum of Art. The IFF opening film “Sleeping With Other People” was a hit with the audience and afterwards I enjoyed the after party designed for filmgoers to have conversations about the film. I ran into a lot of Current ZIP code friends throughout the evening and mingled with local Carmel filmmaker Forest Etsler and his family. “Where’s Amy?” always supports local film makers and was thrilled to see local artist and high school pal Philip Campbell’s film “Your Catfish Friend: Philip Campbell.” Two filmmakers from Carmel had films shown as well; Michael Goldburg had a big attendance for his short film “What’s Eating Dad?” and my favorite film “Peanut Gallery” by Molly Gandour was hands down a crowd favorite. The IFF also had a sold-out brewer’s brunch where filmgoers had a chance to try delicious beer samples from local breweries, brunch and attend a screening of the hit “Blood, Sweat and Beer.” Hat’s off to the executive director Craig Mince of Carmel, president Jason Roemer and the entire IFF Committee, volunteers and sponsors for one heck of a film festival.

Paper Towns Fishers mother and daughter team Angie and Elena Six told ‘Where’s Amy?” they both love and have read all of Hoosier Author John Green books and can’t wait to see “Paper Towns” … they also mentioned that when they aren’t reading John Green books they love to read Current In Fishers for all the local updates and news. (Photos by Amy Pauszek) “Where’s Amy?” I was on the red carpet with Hoosier author John Green and several celebrities for the popular “Paper Towns - Get Lost Get Found Tour.”

Yep, more than 2,500 screaming die-hard fans lined up at the Old National Centre in Indy at 5 a.m. to secure a seat and a hopeful glimpse of Green and clan.

After waiting several hours in the scorching sun, lucky fans were treated to a special musical performance by The Wolff Brothers, a 19-minute sneak preview of exclusive footage from the movie and a Q & A with the cast and some other surprises. Talent included Indianapolis 500 drivers Joseff Newgarden, Sage Karam and Conor Daly. Indianapolis Colts player Anthony Castonzo and teammate Jack Newhart were there. Greg Ballard, Mayor of Indianapolis (who presented Green with a proclamation and an official “John Green Day”), Akilah Hughes, YouTube creator and host of the Paper Towns #GetLostGetFound Tour, and the film’s heartthrobs, musician Alex Wolff, actor Nat Wolff and actress Halston Sage. The day was full of red carpet excitement and although I could not hear for days due to the screaming fans, “Where’s Amy?” gives “Paper Towns” two thumbs up! Go see “Paper Towns,” in theaters now.

Carmel High School best friends and John Green buffs Anna Fagin, Molly Foster and Emma Nisanson got to the Red Carpet event at 5 a.m. to assure good seats. These girls said they always check out Current because Current is the coolest.

“Where’s Amy?” was on the red carpet representing Current Publishing and hanging out with Paper Towns’ Nat Wolff, Halston Sage and John Green. The film is playing now screening nationally and is already a huge hit.

Schedule desire strong

FR O M T HE BA C K SH O P The proper call for safety’s sake It’s no secret we’ve been inundated with rain this summer. It affects plans for so many. The deluge of “liquid sunshine” plays havoc on multiple fronts. There is so much clay around these parts that the water seeps in only so far before it begins to pool.

And so it came to pass, unfortunately, that the Traders Point Hunt Charity Horse Show, previously scheduled to run from Aug. 4-9, was cancelled last week as a result of what the rain left behind. Primarily, that would be an overly soggy Wild Air Farms, where the event has enjoyed an ultra-successful, 37year run. It’s far too dangerous to erect tents and portable stables, as was the finding of Town of Zionsville officials. Can you imagine driving tent stakes and other support or anchoring mechanism into what in some places amounts to pudding? The cancellation, without question, was an excellent call. Yes, we wanted it all to come off without a hitch, for it is an event we enjoy and sponsor. It’s better this way. Having talked to the show’s local leadership, we now know this was a gut-wrenching decision, but the only logical decision that could be made. There was no need to risk the lives of humans and horses, or property, for that matter, by forcing the staging of the event. It was a decision made in the name of safety, and it was a smart one at that. The show, which was to have benefitted Riley Hospital for Children, draws from all our communities as well as from several states beyond. Knowing the organizers and the decision makers at Wild Air, we believe we are safe to assume the show will rise and ride again in far better conditions. At the very least, we hope that will be the case.

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

The Worth of Our Sentimentality Commentary by Terry Anker

The purchase of our first home included with it a vintage refrigerator nearly original to the 70-year-old residence. We lovingly referred to it as the DeSoto for its curved top and liberal use of chrome deco-styled trim. It reminded us of the state-of-theart vehicles built to satisfy the pent-up demand immediately following the merciful end of World War II. And much like the auto we imagined it to emulate, the door was comprised of an abundance of steel and the sound, if closed with great vigor, quite satisfactorily replicated that of a slamming car door.

My parents, concerned for our newlywed well-being, surprised us with the gift of a current model not long after we movedin. Even as our hopes for the place were boundless, our budget was not. As I recall, Mom and Dad even threw in some food – just to get us started. But, I couldn’t bring myself to retire the DeSoto. With a much stronger (and younger) back then than

now, I moved the displaced behemoth to the basement to fill with tasty beverages and the occasional overflow from our proud new appliance in the kitchen.

Some years later, our fortunes had improved but the DeSoto was still doing yeoman’s work. In the frequent power outages that often accompany older homes with even older infrastructure, we could count on the thick walls and insulation to keep contents cool for hours – if not days – on end.

I was proud of the DeSoto (and maybe a little smug about my self-proclaimed thrift).

Then a particularly environmentally-minded friend chastised me pointing out that a new device would pay for itself with electricity savings in a single year. When is it best to let go of the past – and how do we determine the worth of our sentimentality?

Q U O T E O F T HE W EE K Most great people have attained their greatest success just one step beyond their greatest failure.

– Napoleon Hill

Blecht. I can’t believe I’m writing this, but I’m so done with summer vacation. It’s true, my friends, June and July haven’t materialized into that magical time of humor peaceful relaxation that I’ve dreamt about since January.

Perhaps it’s the Noah’s-Ark-worthy rain, although I prefer yard floods to scorching heat, but I actually think my intolerance is due to the remarkable lack of routine here at Chez Wilson.

Yes, we started out with a plan. Chores, Amish Day, and Game Night all made it onto the calendar, and kids’ classes, camps and hobbies filled the early days with as much suburban crisscrossing as this dance mom cared to orchestrate. My husband, Doo, and I even managed a couple of short trips sans minions where we remembered that we do, in fact, like each other.

But we never fell into any sort of regular, daily schedule, and as a former military cadet/mother of twin infants, my normal highoctane, high-efficiency M.O. toppled faster than our latest JENGA tower. Our teens have been sleeping until noon, eating at all hours, and playing video games until well past midnight. Peppered throughout are last-second requests for rides, laundry, and recipe ingredients. I feel like I’m caught in a rip-tide off the North Carolina coast without a life jacket or, more importantly, a shark baton. And I just want to lie on the beach!

Granted, I don’t miss grading Algebra tests or creating edible brown bag lunches from mystery meat and a can of mandarin oranges, but I clearly do not function properly without time constraints and a mile-long To Do list. To wit, if I have eight hours to write an article, it’s not going to happen; I’ll putter around the house delaying closet clean-outs and then watch six straight episodes of Breaking Bad. But if I only have thirty minutes between Color Guard drop-off and Tae Kwon Do pick-up on a school day, I can easily crank out a Pulitzer-worthy masterpiece.

So instead of feeling rejuvenated, I’m just feeing unaccomplished. August, and the beautiful ridged schedule it brings, can’t come soon enough! Peace out.

Hellman’s to pay Commentary by Dick Wolfsie Our kitchen renovation required cleaning out several drawers filled with exotic spices, most of which I had never heard humor of: anardana, advieh, amchoor powder and ajwain, to name a few. (Yes, my wife had them in alphabetical order.) Mary Ellen bought these when she went through her, “I am going to learn to be a gourmet cook” stage, the week after we got married. The stage left the following Monday.

Mary Ellen thought this would be a good time to wean me off my addiction to mustard and ketchup, two essential ingredients that the great chefs of the world have, inexplicably, eliminated from their food preparation.

There are occasional recipes with a touch of gourmet mustard, but when was the last time Wolfgang Puck smacked the bottom of an inverted ketchup bottle and drizzled his Chicken Kiev with Heinz 57?

During the transfer to the garage fridge, I left a jar of mayonnaise on the storage shelf overnight. Without the slightest hesitation, Mary Ellen tossed it in the garbage, but the next day I fished it out and slathered some on my sandwich. Mary Ellen panicked. “Are

you crazy? Why not just use it to make potato salad so we can wipe out the entire neighborhood at the summer block party?”

The mayonnaise jar did say “REFRIGERATE AFTER OPENING,” as well as providing a hotline number for people with emergency mayonnaise questions. I didn’t know if I was calling a deli or New Delhi.

“Yes,” said the representative, “I get husbands calling all day long with this question. Commercial mayonnaise is loaded with acid-killing bacteria. And the eggs used are pasteurized. It’s perfectly safe, despite what every wife thinks.”

“So, I shouldn’t throw it out?”

“Of course you should throw it out! A husband can’t win a mayonnaise argument.”

He was right. I didn’t tell Mary Ellen about my phone call. It would have meant Hellman’s to pay.

WHAT TO EXPECT: The Dangers of Social Media During Divorce As a parent, you are your child's first and most important teacher.

You know your child best, and your input should be considered by the school at every opportunity. Parents frequently do not know what their children's rights are in terms of the education and services offered by the schools, and they often can feel intimidated by school staffs. Your child has the right to a free appropriate public education under federal law.

If you suspect that your child may have a disability, let your child’s school know. Parents have the right to be involved with every decision regarding their child’s education, including whether your child may need special education services. If your child is struggling behaviorally or academically, his school may be required to do an evaluation to see if he qualifies for special services. Trust your instincts: you know your child best. The worst thing to do is nothing.

If you wait to seek help for your child, his frustration and sense of failure could continue to break down his self-esteem, while the window of time for meaningful intervention narrows.

Each child qualifying for services are required by federal law to receive an Individualized Education Program, or IEP. IEPs are put together by a team of school staff and schools are required by law to include parents in this process. However, parents often feel as though they have little input to their child’s IEP because they are unaware of what their child’s rights are. This can have a serious impact and their child's progress can be impaired by a lack of knowledge. "What we have is what you get" is not what the federal and state laws provide. Schools receiving federal funding are required, by law, to devise an IEP for each child qualified for services based on that child's individual needs (not on the school's staffing or budget problems) that is reasonably calculated to confer a

meaningful educational benefit.

Anything less than that does not comply with the federal law, and is actionable through a due process proceeding.

Examples of how schools commit violations: • Failure to find a child eligible for services despite evidence that the child was struggling academically or behaviorally.

• Failure to develop an appropriate IEP based on the child's individual needs.

• Failure to implement the IEP as written.

• Failure to involve parents to meaningfully participate in the IEP development process.

• Failure to prevent punishment of the child for actions or inactions that are manifestations of the child's disability (caused by the child's disability).

• Failure to train staff and aides in the child's areas of disability.

• Predetermining placement and services before the case conference committee meeting.

• Failure to conduct necessary evaluations of the child.

• Failure to provide education and services in the least restrictive environment.

• Failure to offer extended school year services to the child.

• Failure to allow a child with special needs to participate in extracurricular activities to the same extent as his non-disabled peers.

At Hollingsworth & Zivitz, P.C., our team has the experience, the understanding, and the compassion to assist with your family law needs. If you have questions or concerns regarding divorce, custody, support, or any other family law concerns contact our firm at 317.DIVORCE or visit our website at www.hzlegal.com.

Carmel’s Tarkington Theatre to host ‘Night at the Barre’

By Michelle Williams • news@geistcurrent.com

On July 31, Carmel will be graced with a performance from distinguished international ballet artists Irina Dvorovenko and Maxim Beloserkovsky. performance The dancers will be in town to give a master class to ballet students from around the country – students who will be given an exclusive opportunity to perform alongside the former principal dancers of American Ballet Theatre.

The performance will be part of a fundraising event, A Night at the Barre, benefitting the Indiana Ballet Conservatory. IBC is a not-for-profit ballet school founded in 2010, and is hosting its annual summer intensive program for pre-professional ballet dancing students.

Students from around the globe come to Carmel to seek pre-professional training from the world-class IBC faculty during these summer intensives.

“You want to get as much as you can throughout your summer intensive to have that edge you need at the start

of the school year,” said Missy Rust, IBC director of marketing and outreach.

“IBC is thrilled to bring this type of celebration of dance and education experience to the community. We are deeply grateful for the support we continue to receive as we cultivate the next generation of dancers right here in Carmel,” said IBC founding artistic director Alyona Yakovleva-Randall.

Yakovleva-Randall is an award-winning ballet dancer who has studied and worked in Russia, Korea and the United States.

IBC will host a special VIP event prior to the production, and will raffle off several items including a ski trip, tickets to the Center for the Performing Arts and dancewear. Funds raised will be used to provide scholarships to IBC students and to complete studio upgrades such as installing new bars on the walls.

The performance will take place at 7 p.m. at the Tarkington Theatre at the Center of the Performing Arts. Tickets may be purchased at www.IndianaBalletConservatory.org, and are $30 for general admission.

Rich Robinson, founder, songwriter and guitarist for multiplatinum rock band The Black Crowes will hold a solo acoustic performance at the Warehouse in Carmel performance July 31.

Robinson, who formed the band with his brother while attending high school in Georgia, has seen an extensive career touring worldwide with his various acts, releasing three solo albums and a suite of EPs and singles.

Through it all, Robinson credits the character of his brand of rock for keeping things interesting.

“The Crowes are the Crowes, and everyone in that band had their own personality musically,” Robinson said. “People that grew up and listen to music, we filter that music through our life experiences, what we hear, and then it comes out. The more character your music has, the more unique it is.”

Robinson’s latest album, “The Woodstock Sessions Vol. 3,” was released last year. A collection of songs recorded in front of a live audience at Applehead Studio, Robinson channeled a philosophy of solid musicianship that’s led to his multiple successes, by beginning with the bare bones of a song.

“I write that way,” Robinson said. “Most of the songs I write are written acoustically. To me, the belief I’ve always had is that if a song works in its most basic form, then it’s a good song.”

Like any authentic rocker, not thinking about the next step can be as key as planning out each one, Robinson said.

“It needs to be something that moves me and something that will come naturally,” Robinson said. “The art or the music always dictates what the record will be. Whatever comes out comes out. That’s how I always am.”

Tickets for Rich Robinson’s performance are $30 in advance and $35 the day of. For more information, visit liveforthemusic. com.

• Homes are selling at a steady pace in Fishers/Geist. On average, homes sold in 65 days during the first six months of this year – on par with the same time period last year.

Though conditions tilt toward a seller’s market, there are still great opportunities for buyers to find an array of houses at various price points.

Outdoor living expert names project and customer of the decade Commentary by Randy Sorrell From a drab sea of blue stone and under used space to seven fabulously designed outdoor living spaces, Surroundings Carmel-based Surroundings by NatureWorks+ transformed this Northside home’s backyard living area in four short months.

Homeowners, Steve and Courtenay Wagner, knew they wanted to upgrade their backyard to maximize the outdoor living area and utilize the space year around. They felt they had a great canvas to work with but weren’t sure how to bring their vision to life on that canvas. “We loved how owner Randy Sorrell and registered landscape architect Eric Beard took the time to get to know our family and how we planned to use the space. They made us feel comfortable and at ease with the whole process from planning and design to installation and the finished project,” said Steve Wagner.

The job had potential to be a phased project, but the Wagners elected to knock it all out at once in order to be able to utilize their new luxury outdoor space as soon as possible for family events and entertaining. The project included rehab to their blue stone patio, along

A before look at the outdoor space.

with a considerable expansion, a stamped concrete “rug” insert to echo the ribbon around the pool, lanais loaded with amenities, and a brick and mortar formal fireplace.

Also adding interest were several pergolas, formal limestone and mortar walls with raised planters, a rescued and repurposed aggregate walk highlighted with blue stone, and a deck landing for transition to the lower woods in

the rear of the home. Final touches included landscape lighting, drip irrigation and low maintenance “triple threat” landscaping that included plants with four-season interest and tons of color.

“We’ve been involved in smaller projects, larger projects, more complex and maybe even more elaborate, but the Wagner’s project especially resonated with us,” said Surroundings

owner Randy Sorrell.

With over 20 years in industry, Surroundings is passionate about their profession and is pleased to celebrate the Wagner family as not only the Project of the Decade, but Customer of the Decade as well! Their sophisticated project yielded multiple living spaces that each fit perfectly with the home’s lush surrounding nature, including a canopy of mature trees and a lower trail with a winding creek and meadow.

In continued celebration of their clients and staying home and being moved, Surroundings is launching a fun on-going social campaign where their customers can share pictures from their gorgeous and relaxing luxury outdoor living spaces featuring flat Randy and Eric. Monthly a winner will be chosen from client photo submissions for a Surroundings prize pack.
