The Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office recently unveiled its new Safe Exchange Zone.

PUBLIC SAFEY “With the increase in internet-arranged transactions, as well as child custody exchanges and other events where different parties may need to meet, Hamilton County Sheriff Mark Bowen felt it important to create a safe location for area residents to connect,” a press release from the sheriff’s office stated.

The Safe Exchange Zone is at the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office complex, 18100 Cumberland Rd., in Noblesville, and consists of two parking spaces near the main entrance, an area that is well lit and under 24-hour video surveillance.

The sheriff’s office said the Safe Exchange Zone is aimed at cutting down on potential fraud and robberies that can be associated with online transactions.

Child custody exchanges also can be completed in the Safe Exchange Zone. Although the spaces are available on agency grounds, deputies do not participate or act as official witnesses in transactions but can be dispatched to keep the peace, prevent disor-

derly conduct or for criminal offenses.

A Safe Exchange Zone also is available in the main lobby of the sheriff’s office for those needing an indoor location. The lobby is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

The sheriff’s office issued the following safety tips when conducting these types of transactions: • Only do transactions with local buyers and sellers.

• Do not go to a transaction alone.

• Make sure a friend or family member is aware of the transaction details.

• Insist on meeting in a public area like the Sheriff’s Office’s Safe Exchange Zone.

• Do not go into someone else’s house, and do not allow them into yours.

• Complete the transaction during daylight hours if possible.

• Be extra cautious when buying or selling valuable items such as vehicles and jewelry.

• Only use cash or money orders to complete your transactions.

• Trust your instincts. If it sounds like a scam, it probably is.

If someone is not willing to come to the sheriff’s office to conduct a transaction, beware and possibly rethink the meeting.

Shane Booker is the new executive director of Hamilton County Emergency Management, which aims to keep HamilEMERGENCY ton County residents preMANAGEMENT pared and informed in the event of an emergency.

A Noblesville native, Booker has more than 20 years of experience in management of public safety operations.

“It really is my passion, and I’m really excited to serve my home county,” he said.

Booker Booker said his goals in his new role include improving the agency’s training program, standard operating procedures and social media presence and reviewing and updating the agency’s emergency plans and helping ensure municipalities are aware of recovery aspects required by the Federal Emergency Management Agency.

The agency consists of four full-time employees and one part-time employee who help maintain a state of readiness and coordinate information in the event of a local emergency or disaster.

Booker said he encourages Hamilton County residents to make a plan, build an emergency kit and stay informed to stay safe during an emergency. Full emergency planning tips can be found at ready.gov.

The mission of Hamilton County Emergency Management is to provide the county with logistical support to plan, prepare, mitigate, respond to and recover from natural, humancaused and accidental hazards.

The agency mainly works to coordinate available resources during emergencies and is the local link to the Indiana Dept. of Homeland Security and FEMA. The agency also helps to coordinate the weekly testing of tornado sirens and helps manage travel advisories for the county.

For information, download the Hamilton County Emergency Management app or follow the agency on Facebook and Twitter.

Donald (Don) L. Hipes, 83, Carmel, died Thursday morning, January 18, 2018 at his home in Carmel, IN. He was born March 24, 1934 in Royal Center, IN to Josephine and Roy Hipes, and married Deborah Ann Krueger February 24, 1978.

Don graduated from Crawfordsville High School, where he earned 8 athletic letters and was the proud recipient of the Hybarger Award for outstanding athletes. Though his undergraduate education was interrupted by his service in the Armed Forces as a Sergeant in the US Army Infantry, Don received his BS from Butler (where he also lettered) and his MS from Purdue. His career in Education spanned 41 years, serving as Principal of various Indiana high schools, chiefly Lebanon and Noblesville, as well as State Supervisor of Correctional Education. After retirement at 62, he had fun with numerous part time positions—from kindergarten assistant to elementary school disciplinary coach to English and literature instructor for Indianapolis and Carmel schools, and IUPUI. Don also volunteered for many years as bookseller, bear hugger, and Santa Claus at the bookstores, Cover to Cover Books, Noblesville, and Treehouse Tales, Indianapolis, that he and Debby built together. Don was a member of Rotary International in Lebanon and Noblesville, where he served as president of the chapter. He also belonged to St. Luke’s United Methodist Church and volunteered in the church office.

Don was proud of growing up on his parents’ Crawfordsville farm, loyally followed the Chicago Cubs, enjoyed movies, books, travel and gazing at “his water” in Naples, Florida. He loved his wife Deb and their chocolate Havanese, Chapters. Don will be remembered for planting trees in their Stonewick neighborhood, enjoying irises and lilacs, telling funny stories, laughing at his own corny jokes, and a twinkling smile.

He is survived by his wife Debby, his sister-in-law, Becky Krueger Malenkos (Michael Ridenour), his nephews, JW Malenkos (Marissa), Justin Malenkos (Eugenia) of Carmel, and his nieces and nephew, Cindy Hipes Bennett (Don), Carrie Hipes Bearden (Jim), John Hipes (Karen), Jill Hipes, and Jeni Hipes Hall (Larry) of Georgia, as well as 11 great nieces and nephews of Carmel, Georgia and Florida.

Don’s parents and brother, Darrell, preceded him in death.

In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the St. Luke’s United Methodist Church Stephen Ministry or the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society of Indiana. A Memorial service will be held June 2, 2018, 11am at Flanner Buchanan-Oaklawn Memorial Gardens (Conner Suite), 9700 Allisonville Road, with visitation beginning at 9:30am. Online condolences may be made at www.flannerbuchanan.com. The family thanks Transitions Hospice for attentive and gentle life-ending care.

Book features unique friendship

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com

Anthony JimJim Anthony Jim Anthony So-Mark is an effective and affordable marketing service for small businesses and nonprofits. Business owners and marketing managers don’t always have the time and resources to manage the grind of consistent, digital marketing efforts. They know they should be active on social media consistently putting out compelling content to create credibility and generate interest in their brand. But we hear all the time that they are too busy, can’t maintain consistency, don’t really understand the tools and aren’t sure of the best practices. So we’ve developed a service to do it for them. We focus on email marketing, blogging, and social media posting and optimization. We get your message out for you, and then we use analytics to identify the prospects showing the most interest in your business. We are part marketing and branding service and part lead generation and prospect identification. Our mission statement is simply, “help small businesses grow.”

Noblesville resident Jim Dworkin used a real observation in Florida of a unique friendship as inspiration for AUTHOR his first children’s book, “The Dog and the Dolphin.”

“I was on Sanibel Island a number of years ago, and I went outside and saw this dog running up the beach and then make a hard stop and go the other way,” said Dworkin, a management professor at Purdue University. “I watched a while and saw there was a dolphin there he was playing with.

The dolphin was swimming along and the dog went into the water and played with the dolphin.”

Dworkin thought the story would make a good children’s book, so he wrote it that day. Later, he recruited Michael Chelich to illustrate the story and self-published it on CreateSpace in 2014. The story has sold 5,000 copies since its release.

When Dworkin lived in Michigan City, he witnessed a dog riding a jet ski, which gave him the idea for his second book, “The Dog and the Jet Ski,” which he self-published in 2016.

Shortly after, Shirley Heinze Land Trust

Jim Dworkin is the author of two children’s books featuring Red the dog. A third will be released in May. (Submitted photo)

contacted Dworkin and asked if he would write a book about the dog, Red, in its nature preserves. The new book, “Red’s Nature Adventures,” will be released next month.

“That one is about him going through the different types of land they have with a prairie and bogs and wetlands and meeting different types of animals,” Dworkin said.

“It is also a picture book, but this one has a higher level of education to it.”

Dworkin often reads to elementary schools, libraries, hospitals and more. To schedule a free reading, contact him at dworkinjim@gmail.com.

Pack the Cruiser to occur across county

KITCHENS | BATHS | INTERIORS ADDITIONS | OUTDOOR SPACES

By Renee Larr • news@currentnoblesville.com Hamilton County residents soon will have the opportunity to assist 13 local summer lunch programs. On June GIVING BACK 2 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., officers from Carmel, Fishers, Noblesville, Sheridan, Westfield and the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office will be at all nine Kroger stores across the county accepting food donations in an initiative called Pack the Cruiser.

“It’s a one-day food drive inviting the public to come out to Kroger,” said Anita Hagen, executive director of the Hamilton County Harvest Food Bank. “The policemen will be there with their cars inviting people to come in and shop for specific food items.

There are individualized lists for each store based on which programs they’re working with in that area.”

County-wide summer lunch programs provide 75,000 meals to more than 1,400 children during the 10 weeks of summer vacation.

“We’re requesting all non-perishable items,” Hagen said. “The stores have been stocking up on a lot of these items. They’ll also accept Kroger gift cards, or if people would like to just make a monetary dona-

tion, all that money will be turned into Kroger gift cards to those programs. Every bit of the donation will go to funding food.”

The program was launched last year in Fishers and was expanded to include all of Hamilton County this year.

“Det. Dean Mucha of the Fishers Police Dept. was the originator of the idea,” Hagen said. “He wanted to try it out in Fishers.

They filled 11 cars, but always in his mind he wanted it to be across all of Hamilton

County. Then he reached out to the different police departments to get them involved.”

Representatives from each summer lunch program will be on hand to answer questions.

“The community will also have the opportunity to learn more about those programs and if they want to get more involved,” Hagen said.

Shakespeare in the Park, presented by the Noblesville Arts Commission, will return to Federal Hill Commons in its 26th year over two weekends, July 26-28 and Aug. 2-4. Noblesville’s Shakespeare in the Park is the longest running in central Indiana and is free.

MAKER FAIRE RETURNS FOR 5TH YEAR With its own First Friday and Second Saturday events throughout the summer, Nickel Plate Arts is looking forward to the Fifth Annual Maker Faire on the downtown square.

Held in conjunction each year with the St. Michael’s Episcopal Strawberry Festival – now in its 41st year and taking place across two days (June 15 and 16 from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.), the free Maker Faire will be from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. June 16.

The family friendly event showcases the works of local artisans and makers and will include nearly 40 vendors.

“One of our studio artists volunteered to manage little pop-up sales in 2013,” Nickel Plate Arts Executive Director Aili McGill said. “We were testing to see if pop-up sales would work, and one of the weekends he picked was the strawberry festival. The artists all did really, really well, so we realized this has legs. There wasn’t really another outlet for the maker community in the summer.”

McGill said many of the products for sale at the Maker Faire are reasonably priced compared to some higher-end art fairs, with an average price of items costing $30 to $50. The goal is to make the event accessible to a variety of people in the community.

“We have a lot of people who make a lot of cool, practical handmade goods that are affordable,” she said.

Items McGill said people should expect at this year’s fair include jewelry, handmade journals, birdhouses, home décor, string

art and more.

“I’m really excited about one artist, April Adams. She actually uses electrical current in saltwater to etch images onto metal,” McGill said. “She’ll be exhibiting that in some form. Also, artist Eric O’Dell makes handmade journals. We’ll also have some illustrators and at least one children’s book maker.”

Deconstructing DMs

O B S E R V AT I O N

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

A wider menu Commentary by Terry Anker As avid readers, each day we receive a panoply of updates, blasts, news and posts about all sort and manner of ideas. Even this paper appears in our mailboxes eagerly enticing us to open, review and stay a while. Because of the many topics that might pique our interest, social media bots, editorial pros and would-be lifestyle experts all gauge our thinking with an eye to deliver more of said content to keep us interested – and their product above the constant chatter of this media age. Tailored articles and suggested columns all fill our senses.

It is a bit as if our favorite restaurant took note that we have had the same general menu item three of the last five visits. Promptly, it removed all other flavors and created a menu just for us. Gone would be anything that might allow us to stray from our daily ritual of meat and potatoes.

Countless variations on the singular theme would be advanced.

In a world where we customize to a narrow slice of the menu, aren’t we missing the abundance of our choices? And, can our bodies remain healthy, or even survive, on a diet compressed to our limited notions of what we might enjoy? Discerning, reading, contemplating – each requires a modicum of adventure. How can we come to know our tastes if we only sample things we already know? Certainly, the safe, easy choice is the familiar and the self-reinforcing. At times, a hearty meat and potato stew is warranted, if not required. Still, is it suited for a daily diet? Pineapple is not my favorite. Brussels sprouts are. Isn’t there room for both on my plate?

Objects in mirror are closer than they appear Commentary by Steve Carman We all hear how widespread and severe the ID theft problem has become in our country. One thing still remains certain for all: ID thieves get better all the time.

Steps you took to protect yourself a few years ago are simply not strong enough to protect you today. Approximately 99 percent of thieves want a quick score without spending a lot of time and resources.

Here are some tips: • Put a cover or small piece of paper over the VIN number on your vehicle’s dashboard. That number is key in obtaining additional information about you. If I have your license plate number, VIN number and address, I can get your name off of a simple internet search.

• Check your mail daily. A lot of people simply don’t retrieve their mail from their mailbox on the same day it was delivered. Get your mail as soon as you can out of your mailbox, never leave it there overnight and consider a locking mailbox.

• Shred junk mail. The free credit card solicitations – shred them. Most of the time, all a company needs is an acknowledgment and signature, and a credit card is on the way. If an ID thief intercepts the solicitation, he

signs it for you and puts a note with it along with a change of address on where to send the card.

• Rethink your need to enter every sweepstakes you encounter. You are just one good raffle drawing away from the new Ford or Chevy of your dreams. Realistically, the chances of you winning are extremely small, and you give away a ton of ID information just to be eligible.

• Freeze your credit. Notice, I don’t say hire a credit monitoring service.

Know the difference. A credit monitoring service is like hiring a home alarm company to tell you your home was burglarized after the fact. A credit freeze is like an alarm that makes an ID theft virtually impossible by locking up your information.

Remember, when protecting your ID, take the time to plan two to three moves ahead. There is no perfect defense to any theft, but with a small bit of planning you can dramatically lower your chances of being a victim of identity theft.

In this episode of “Evolution of a Dance Mom: An Exposé,” I explore how a new dance mom experiences the five stages of grief. Enjoy!

HUMOR After her daughter’s firstever competition, the DM will see nothing but positives: The supportive and professional atmosphere, the fair and clearly defined judging guidelines and the beauty and grace of all the young performers. This is the classic shock-and-denial phase, when the DM subconsciously is unable and unwilling to look below the glitter lipstick and faux lashes to the crazy that ferments beneath.

By her third competition, however, the DM will move on to anger. She will have had it with obnoxious mothers screeching, “Own it, Maddie!” and the exorbitant tuition/ entrance fees. She will mutter things like “Where’d my life go?” in her tormented sleep.

But by this point, the DM is committed.

She’ll fail miserably at the bargaining stage (“If you quit, I’ll buy you a pony!”) and muddle through a few weeks of depression (“I’m sorry my tears ruined your bun, honey”).

Dark days, for certain.

As the season wraps with nationals, however, the DM will reach the last phase of acceptance. She’ll understand that her daughter has found her passion and that she must do whatever it takes to put her child’s dreams ahead of her own frustrations. The DM will have accepted the cost, the time commitment and even the requisite sequined booty shorts. She’ll know to bring a good book, wear a pair of quality ear plugs and appreciate the endless opportunities to ruthlessly judge other women and their kids. She will have accepted her fate as a Dance Mom. Peace out.

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Mended Hearts and Bolt for the Heart share a bond of helping those with heartrelated issues.

RIVERVIEW “They’re trying to save lives, and we’re trying to save lives,” said Marv Norman, president of Riverview Health Mended Hearts Chapter 350. “There are 1,000 people per day that go into sudden cardiac arrest. The survival rate is not very good.”

Mended Hearts celebrated its 10th anniversary May 16 at Riverview Health in Noblesville. The national nonprofit, which features community chapters, is designed to give hope to heart disease patients, their families and caregivers.

Norman, a Noblesville resident, said Bolt for the Heart has 3,000 runners and walkers on Thanksgiving in Carmel to raise money for portable Automated External Defibrillators, or AEDs, for the Indiana State Police.

AEDs are used to restart someone’s heart after cardiac arrest.

An AED was purchased by the chapter from Cardiac Science through their relationship with Bolt for the Heart, in honor

of its anniversary. Norman said the board then chose to donate it to Good Samaritan Network.

“I met Nancy Chance of Good Samaritan Network at the recent Good Samaritan Resource Fair, and she expressed an interest in an AED,” Norman said. “She and my board came to an agreement, and Good Samaritan will be presented the AED in the near future. Nancy will take our unit and train people in CPR.” The AED was presented by Troy Pflugner, senior AED specialist and area manager for AED company Cardiac Science for Indiana, Louisville and Cincinnati. He is closely associated with Bolt for the Heart.

“It’s great to support a group which is doing wonderful things to help others live,” Pflugner said.

Norman said the group is going to do fundraisers and seek grants for more AEDs and plans to work more with Bolt for the Heart.

He said an important emphasis of his organization is to promote heart scans.

Riverview Health cardiac nurse Jean Foster also was recognized for her support of Mended Hearts and for her efforts in the resuscitation of a chapter member who had been in cardiac arrest.

Walls Mattress adds rug and room store

By Sadie Hunter sadie@youarecurrent.com In business in Noblesville for eight years, Walls Mattress has expanded to add Walls Rug & Room.

NEW BIZ Connected to the mattress store at 2345 Conner St., the rug and home décor store was created to fill a void in the Noblesville market, owner Austin Walls said.

“I was looking to expand in other areas, and I enjoy the design process of selling furniture – the artwork, the rugs, the accessories – but don’t necessarily enjoy selling furniture,” Walls said. “I was looking in the area, and I felt like there was a hole for rugs and accessories. You can go to the box stores, and they’ve got inexpensive stuff but limited selection and quality. The other

option is high-end designers, where the rugs are several thousand dollars, and the accessories are expensive. So, I wanted to give people a different option that’s affordable but higher quality and items that are more unique.”

The family began its business 22 years ago with a furniture store in Muncie, which is still in business, when Walls was 16.

Seven years later, he opened another Walls Furniture in Anderson after graduating from Ball State University with a degree in entrepreneurship.

“My parents started the furniture store,” Walls said. “So for 22 years, I’ve sold, delivered and repaired furniture.”

Walls Mattress and Walls Rug & Room are open from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Saturday and 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Sunday. For more, visit wallsmattress.com.

‘Million Dollar Quartet’ returns to ATI June 1-17

editorial@youarecurrent.com

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com “Million Dollar Quartet” was quite valuable to Actors Theatre of Indiana’s first run in the fall of 2016.

THEATER “It broke all box office records. It’s definitely back by popular demand,” said ATI co-founder Don Farrell, who performs as Sam Phillips.

“We have most of the cast coming back.

Our Carl Perkins and our Jerry Lee Lewis are new.

“Our previous Jerry Lee Lewis has got the national tour. That’s why he can’t come in, but we have an amazing cast coming in.”

ATI will present “Million Dollar Quartet” from June 1 to June 17 at the Studio Theater in the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel.

“Our sales are doing really well,” Farrell said. “We are well ahead of our typical sales. Obviously, I want to encourage people to get their tickets as soon as possible. It’s going to sell out. I know it will because it did before, and that’s one of the reasons we’re bringing it back.”

Gavin Rohrer will play Jerry Lee Lewis and Sean Riley will play Carl Perkins.

Both have played in the musical in other productions.

Returning to the cast are Brandon Alstott as Johnny Cash; Adam Tran as Elvis Presley; Nathan Shew as Fluke; and Betsy Norton as Dyanne.

As part of the show, ATI will give more information about the 2018-19 season, which opens with “A Comedy of Tenors,” from Sept. 7 to Sept. 30, followed by “It’s a Wonderful Life: A Live Radio Play” Nov. 16 to Dec. 13; “Ruthless,” Jan. 25, 2019 to Feb. 17; and “Forbidden Broadway; It’s Back, It’s New and Better Than Ever!” April 26 to May 19. “‘It’s a Wonderful Life’ is nostalgic and sweet, and the other three shows are hysterically funny,” Farrell said.

Farrell said there is a possibility of additional shows.

“We have some big things planned for CarmelFest and the parade,” Farrell said.

“There is so much synergy and momentum

- ATI co-founder Don Farrell “The Sip-N-Song is going to be brand new for us to have right after opening,” Farrell said. “It’s a good opportunity to introduce them to the two new actors.

It’s going to be a great opportunity for

the cast and the audience who loved it so much the first time to be able to see the cast they saw the first time as well. This is our first time doing something like this tied in with the production. All these local businesses working together to support professional theater is marvelous.”

Tech crew workshop set for June 2 An ATI workshop, called “The Business of Backstage – A Theatre Tech Experience” is set from 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m June 2 at the Studio Theater Rehearsal Room 141/142.

Playhouse to stage ‘Picnic’

By Rick Morwick • rick@youarecurrent.com Although times have changed since the award-winning play “Picnic” debuted on Broadway in 1953, Jen Otterman insists its message still connects with THEATER modern audiences.

“Overall, it is a love story,” said Otterman, who is directing Main Street Productions, Inc.’s presentation of “Picnic” at the Westfield Playhouse, 1836 W. Ind. 32 in Westfield.

The first of the eight-show run is June 1 at 7:30 p.m.

Otterman, a longtime director and former acting teacher at Hamilton Southeastern High School, is directing “Picnic” for the second time at Westfield Playhouse. The first time was in 2016, so she is well-versed in the nuances of staging playwright William Inge’s Pulitzer Prize-winning drama.

“It is set in the 1950s, so finding costumes and props that are appropriate to the time period is a bit of a challenge,” Otterman said. “It is also a rather difficult set to design and construct because it is the exterior of two homes. Finally, it requires a very certain type of actor for a couple of the main roles, which makes casting the show

Rosie Allenson, who portrays Millie Owens, practices her lines during rehearsal for “Picnic.”

a challenge.”

Set on Labor Day weekend in the joint backyard of two middle-aged widows, the story revolves around the melancholy lives of, among other characters, Helen Potts, Hal Carter, Millie Owens, Madge Owens, Flo Owens, Rosemary Sydney and Alan Seymour.

Loneliness, abandonment, regret, desperation and, ultimately, hope are among the themes.

An article on articles Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt No, this isn’t going to be some kind of meta article on the state of newspaper journalism.

Instead, today we’re talkGRAMMAR GUY ing about articles, which are special kinds of adjectives that are always used with — and give some information about — a noun.

In English, we have three articles: a, an and the. A and an are considered indefinite articles, which refer to any member of a group. Remember, a and an = any. Use “a” before words that begin with consonants. For example: The cat had a fifth leg which dangled freely on the left side of her body. Use “an” before words that begin with vowels. For example: Lance is an amateur taxidermist, specializing in stuffing animals that have extra limbs.

In contrast, English’s one definite article (the) comes before a noun when you’re referring to something specific and precise. It makes sense that we have one definite article; it’s the only one. For example: Have you shaved the dog? In this instance, you’re not referring to just anyone’s dog (your neighbor might not be happy if you showed up and shaved his dog); you’re referring to “the” dog, probably yours.

When referring to a noncount noun (a noun

that usually can’t be expressed in a plural form), use “the” or omit the article altogether. The juice squirted out my nose when I heard the punchline (some specific juice, maybe the orange juice you just juiced that morning). To make matters worse, I spilled juice all over the floor (any juice).

When referring to a count noun (a noun that can be expressed in plural form, usually with an “s”), use “a” or “an.” I needed a new glass of juice after the earlier incident. Here, “a” modifies the noun “glass.”

Certain types of nouns do not take an article.

These include names of sports (curling, gymnastics, synchronized swimming), names of languages and nationalities (Canadian, Ghanaian, Swedish) and names of academic subjects (history, mathematics, botany).

I could probably devote several more articles to articles. I’m not sure if I even scratched the surface on them. I certainly scratched a surface, but definitely not all of the surfaces. You get what I mean.

DISPATCHES Save a scorched pan – To save a scorched pan, sprinkle the burned bottom with baking soda, then add 4 to 5 tablespoons salt, plus enough water to cover, and let stand overnight. Scrape out charred remains with a rubber spatula.
