For more than two decades, Noblesville Mayor John Ditslear has shown his appreciation for the Boy Scouts of FUNDRAISER America by hosting the annual Mayor’s Breakfast for Scouting each February.

Breaking fundraising records the past several years, Ditslear’s Feb. 12 Boy Scout breakfast ended on a high note — raising a record $63,500 for local Scout troops at the Hamilton County 4-H Fairgrounds. Funds will be used for Scout programming, supplies and equipment and training workshops and camps. In the event’s 24-year history, a total of $738,500 has been raised.

“The Noblesville community is committed to giving young people the tools and experiences and the knowledge and faith to make the world a better place,” Ditslear said. “By supporting Scouting, we are investing in the future leaders of our city, state and country.

We are empowering young people with life skills to be prepared for whatever challenges they may face.”

Retired Hamilton County Judge Steve Nation served as chairman.

“President Ronald Reagan told us that freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction, and that’s why Boy Scouts are so important,” Nation said. “It prepares our

Ditslear was recognized with the Good Scout Award and was presented his old Boy Scout uniform as a framed gift.

“This year was to honor Mayor Ditslear for what he has done for the City of Noblesville and Scouting, and I think that is why we reached a record this year,” Nation said.

Since 2004, Noblesville has had 224 individuals achieve Scouting’s highest rank of Eagle Scout.

Hamilton County’s last stoplight along U.S. 31 on the route to Kokomo is expected to disappear within the next ROADS few years. INDOT has announced plans to reconstruct the intersection of U.S. 31 and 236th Street in northern Hamilton County into an interchange.

Hamilton County Highway Dept. Director Brad Davis said the county shares INDOT’s goal of eliminating stoplights and improving traffic flow on U.S. 31.

“The big goal of INDOT is to create a freeway system on U.S. 31 and to eliminate traffic signals on that roadway,” Davis said.

“We’ve wanted to have an interchange there for quite some time, so we are in favor of it and are providing any input we can to help.”

Davis said the new interchange will serve two purposes: Improve traffic and make drivers safer.

“One of the major issues is a safety issue.

There’s been an awful lot of accidents at

that location, so that’s one of the primary goals they’re trying to solve,” he said. “By doing an interchange, they’re actually splitting the traffic, so you’re going to eliminate that intersection conflict there. And, of course, an interchange is going to work a lot more efficiently at moving traffic than a traffic light.”

INDOT has not announced a starting date for the project, but construction is expected to begin in 2021 or 2022. According to INDOT’s website, public feedback will help determine what type of interchange INDOT will install. Public hearings are expected to take place before the project begins.

WHAT’S HAPPENING AT OTHER SCHOOLS?

Hazel Dell Elementary Students are taking part in a national movement, the Great Kindness Challenge.

“We devoted one week to perform as many acts of kindness as possible,” Principal Karen Carter said.

“Throughout this week, students and staff performed acts of kindness that ranged from writing kind notes and encouragement (from Noblesville all the way to Oxford, Miss.), to giving small treats and tokens of appreciation to helping others in a variety of ways.”

Students from Hinkle Creek Elementary show off the results of their food-drive efforts. (Submitted photo)

Elementary students work to enhance community through various service projects

By Sadie Hunter • sadie@youarecurrent.com At Noblesville Schools, student volunteerism and community service efforts aren’t uncommon. From various clubs and organizations at the high school COVER STORY aimed at making the world a better place, to students volunteering at animal shelters and food pantries, the efforts can be seen around the city.

But in the district’s elementary schools, work to help others is progressing rapidly, with students stepping up with the help of school leadership and teachers to tackle a problem or simply doing something nice.

One example is Ginny Bushyeager’s third-grade class at Promise Road Elementary, which this winter began taking time in the evenings to visit with senior citizens at Prairie Lakes Health Campus in Noblesville.

“In November, we were talking about random acts of kindness, and it kind of came to this,” Bushyeager said. “We talked about things that we could do, and we realized there are a lot of things you can do to make a difference in this world that don’t cost money. One of the students came up with volunteering at a nursing home or assisted living facility. So, I made a phone call.”

Since then, groups from the class have visited the assisted living facility off 146th Street and Cumberland Road

twice – once in December 2018 and again in mid-February.

“The first time we came, we brought a bunch of snacks and things like that and played games with the residents,” Bushyeager said.

When the group visited in February, students rewrote traditional fairytales to add a twist, and then shared the stories with the residents.

Promise Road Elementary School Principal Kelly Treinen said she isn’t surprised to see Bushyeager’s class doing something heartfelt to give back in the community.

“We encourage all of our students to complete at least one hour of community service, but (Bushyeager) just models community service,” Treinen said. “We have opportunities that our parent-teacher organization helps us set up, but she has really taken it on her own to get her students out in the community and pay it forward. We all encourage (community service), but she’s made it happen for her kids.”

Ann Miller, life enrichment director at Prairie Lakes Health Campus, sees the visits from a different side.

“It’s really a great experience for our residents to have the chance to connect with a younger generation,” she said.

“They love kids, and it can remind them of their own children and grandchildren. They love learning from them and just listening to them. They connected instantly, and I love that they want to keep coming back.”

Hinkle Creek Elementary Principal Jack Lawrence said the school’s unofficial motto is “Choose Kindness,” and that kindness can be seen with student-led food drives and projects centered on Fueled for School, a weekend meal-pack program created by Hinkle Creek staff that benefits more than 350 kids in Hamilton County.

Noble Crossing Elementary Students are completing food waste audits in the cafeteria.

“The purpose of this project is to reduce food waste in hopes of becoming a zero-waste cafeteria,” said Principal Pat Haney.

North Elementary “Students planted, tilled and harvested through the summer (in our community garden),” Principal Robert Lugo said. “Community members also participated in pulling weeds, watering and harvesting. Fresh vegetables were available to not only North (Elementary) families but also to those who live around our school.”

Stony Creek Elementary Bethany Lambert’s third-grade class at Stony Creek Elementary recently completed a project with the Humane Society for Hamilton County, helping animals get adopted.

“Once I get the (animal adoption) information from (HSHC), I have my third-graders write persuasive letters to potential adopters about why these animals should be adopted,” Lambert said.

Last year, all 12 animals that had letters written about them were adopted within one month.

White River Elementary Student have started a Small Moments club, which focuses on making the school and community a better place.

“The club has concentrated on school initiatives,” Principal Calie VanDermark said. “Like painting bathroom walls with encouraging words, leaving kind notes for others in library books and showing appreciation for teachers.”

ESSAY

LETTER

Do the math

Bias crime bill decision disappointing

Commentary by Terry Anker Our daily lives are overflowing with data. Yet, in a somewhat alarming development, most of us are more confused than ever. How do we make sense of the competing, incongruent and often intentionally open-ended assertions in which modern society finds itself steeped? How do those “in-theknow” arrive at their assumptions?

How do they use the information to find their assertion of outcome?

The challenge here is that most talking heads foist upon the unsuspecting and willing public equations of “how to fix the world” with too many unknown variables. Every eighth-grade math student will tell you that such cannot be resolved.

First, one must know which elements are required, then conform to a definition for each, and finally determine a specific outcome that we might hope to reach if we solve the equation.

For others to understand our thinking, one must begin from a place that assumes the position of the listener, not the speaker. If the listener does not have enough information, wouldn’t it require that the speaker include it in the originating message?

One should identify all the variables and then, in time, solve each before turning in the assignment.

Understandably, some don’t want to do the homework. They push the problem-solving responsibility off to the reader. Open-ended equations invite further interrogatory and leave too much to assumption.

If we were to review our messages in advance of sending them from the perspective of the reader, how much could we improve our communication? And, if we spent a bit more time on designing the equation before attempting to solve it, would we get to better outcomes?

Sweet dreams aren’t made of this Commentary by Danielle Wilson I don’t know what is going on inside my head lately. I had a dream last night that went from my grappling with HUMOR a personal case of head lice while babysitting a couple of pre-teen strangers to me at a parade where deceased friends and family were stopping to say hello.

I didn’t awake until the zombie horde forced a semi off a bridge next to where I was standing. I asked my husband Doo what he thought these visions meant, and he responded with a short monologue of Sigmund Freud emphatically telling him to “Get out. NOW.” Hilarious.

Doo also reminded me that I had left a bathroom drawer open, wide enough so that when he stumbled in this morning, he clocked his left thigh so hard he now has a noticeable bruise. I vaguely recall rummaging for Advil around 4 a.m. while peering through a window to determine if a tornado

was afoot. I guess the screaming wind and the dead-people visits distracted me from closing up shop, so to speak.

All this is to say that clearly I have too much on my plate, at least subconsciously.

As I type, I am mentally listing today’s “chores” along with work and family “stuff” that needs to be addressed in the near future. But what’s a mom to do? Ignore parenting, wife-ing, teaching, cleaning, managing, shopping, disciplining, exercising, planning, living altogether?

I’m certain the spicy food and the devil/ vampire shows aren’t helping, but in my defense, have you watched “Lucifer” yet?

Terrible, but oddly alluring. So, I’ll just have to deal with the crazy dreams and hope life settles soon. Peace out.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK “Nothing great is ever achieved without much enduring.”

– St. Catherine of Siena

Editor, The Noblesville Diversity Coalition appreciates the Senate Public Policy Committee’s strong bipartisan support for bias crime legislation. They approved Senate Bill 12 by a vote of 9-1 after the NDC joined central Indiana’s business, community and faith leaders to testify on the need for stricter sentencing of convicted offenders who target victims based on their race, ethnicity, religion, national origin, age, disability, sex, gender identity or sexual orientation.

Unfortunately, the full Senate then amended SB 12 and removed law enforcement training and the list of immutable characteristics that is critical to protecting all Hoosiers.

Meanwhile, the business community is concerned that without an effective biascrime law, Indiana will struggle to recruit young professionals while companies that offer high-wage, high-tech jobs will likely go elsewhere.

Join us in sending a clear message that Indiana will not stand by and tolerate cowardly acts of violence and intimidation. By extending protections to every Hoosier, we can all feel safe.

Swift, Green combine for jazz concert at The Tarkington

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com It’s fitting that Veronica Swift combines musical forces with Benny Green.

Swift is the daughter CONCERT of late bebop pianist Hod O’Brien and jazz vocalist Stephanie Nakasian. Swift, 24, has been performing since she was 9 years old.

“Of course, it is a great honor to play with Benny Green, a bebop messenger and someone who possesses so much of the lineage at his fingers,” Swift said. “My dad and Benny toured together back in 2007 as part of the ‘100 Gold Fingers Tour,’ and since then I have been a fan of Benny’s.

I remember meeting him when I was around 12, and now getting to play with him, it’s like completing the circle “ Swift and the Benny Green Trio will perform at 8 p.m. March 8 at The Tarkington in the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel. Green, a pianist and composer, has toured and recorded with jazz icons like Art Blakey, Ray Brown, Betty Carter and Freddie Hubbard. Green was a member of Blakey’s Jazz Messengers.

“What Benny and I do, and what I am known for is, of course, doing classics from the Great American Songbook and also bebop lines. Sometimes I sing as a horn, wordless,” Swift said. “But I am also known for taking more obscure jazz tunes not known by popular masses, or even modern theater tunes that aren’t in jazz repertoire, and making them sound as if they were written in the golden age of song.”

For Swift, jazz is second nature.

“Most people would think that this is a passion, that performing jazz is something I’ve always wanted to do,” Swift said. “This isn’t necessarily wrong, but how I explain it to people is I don’t think anything of it.

It’s just what I’ve known all my life. Are you passionate about speaking English?

It’s the same principle. You don’t think about it, but when you do, you wouldn’t change your roots for anything, and you’re thankful for what they teach you. My relationship with jazz is, metaphorically and

literally, my relationship with my parents.

It’s the core and base of my existence.”

As she gains experience, Swift said she wants to explore even more diverse arrangements and pull from different genres to add to what will become her own sound.

“Even finding songs that come out today and lyrical content that speaks to my generation and mixing it with the sound of Songbook,” she said. “That, to me, is what always keeps this music fresh.”

Swift performs regularly at New York City’s famed Birdland Jazz Club and ap-

pears regularly at Jazz at Lincoln Center with Vince Giordano’s Nighthawks. She was a 2015 prizewinner at the prestigious Thelonious Monk Institute International Jazz Vocals Competition.

Critics have compared her smooth style and scatting to Anita O’Day, June Christy and Annie Ross.

The concert is part of the Center for the Performing Arts Emerging Artists series, featuring performers who are on the rise or otherwise new to central Indiana.

Charleston’s

Commentary by Anna Skinner Address: 14636 Greyhound Plaza, Westfield What to get: Cheeseburger Price: $13 Anna’s take: Growing up, my family always loved to visit Charleston’s for a special occasion, dressing business casual instead of just casual and ordering something we wouldn’t typically order. It was a treat, and I always ordered the chicken piccata. What I’ve come to realize in my adult life is Charleston’s, especially the bar area,

is a great place to hang out with friends or frequent by yourself. The low-lit bar creates an atmosphere of comfort, which many bars don’t have. The bartenders really make an effort to get to know you, and the gentleman who served me didn’t forget my name during my stay. Kind of ironic, then, that I’ve forgotten his.

To fit my more casual setting, I ordered the cheeseburger. I suggest shoestring fries as your side.

Suggested pairings: The Whiskey Twist is a cocktail of Jameson Irish Whiskey, sweet and sour mix and fresh blackberries.

It’s refreshing, light and pairs great with the burger.

Get it at 3UP Rooftop Bar, Carmel Ingredients: 1.25 oz. Hanger Rose Vodka, .75 oz. St. Elder, .5 oz. Ruby Red, .5 oz. lemon juice, Prosecco Directions: Combine all ingredients except prosecco into a shaker tin, add ice, shake and strain over fresh ice in a highball glass. Top with Prosecco, stir and garnish with a lemon.
