The Lofts on Tenth is a $7.7 million project that will add 31,700 square feet of mixed-use development on 10th Street between Clinton and Wayne streets. (Submitted rendering)

Council approves bonds for Lofts on Tenth Street

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com At its June 9 meeting, the Noblesville Common Council unanimously approved an GOVERNMENT ordinance authorizing the city to issue taxable economic development revenue bonds for the Lofts on Tenth Street.

The Lofts on Tenth is a $7.7 million project that will add 31,700 square feet of mixed-use development on 10th Street between Clinton and Wayne streets.

The city’s bonds will not exceed $3.3 million. The ordinance was approved unanimously with three council members abstaining.

A large portion of the council meeting was dominated by a proposal from Trilogy Health Services asking for a change of zoning for 8.1 acres southeast of 146th Street and Ind. 37.

Senior planner David Hirschle presented the item. The site was part of the original Prairie Lakes planned unit development approved in 1997 and was last subject to public hearing in 2008.

Since then, 11.46 acres of the site have been planned to be developed as an assisted living facility, an Alzheimer’s care facility and an independent living facility.

“The first two uses have been built, and the only remaining acreage is the undeveloped portion approved for the independent living facility of up to 100 units,” Hirschle said. “The current proposal is the elimination of the mentioned independent living facility to be replaced with 16, one- and two-bedroom duplex units of 32 units total for age-restricted, senior housing.”

Although the plan commission gave a positive recommendation for the project, there was some discussion about the amount of parking available on the property, and that discussion resurfaced at the council meeting.

The plan allows for two parking spaces per unit. Some members of the plan commission and council wanted more because of a recent issue at the Flats at 146, in which residents were utilizing garages as storage and then parking in fire lanes.

However, the project developers plan keep the original proposal because approximately half of the residents do not drive, and up to six cars can fit in the driveways.

Several council members also suggested sprinkling parking spaces for visitors throughout the development. A vote wasn’t taken because the presentation was only an introduction.

We hope you are well and will continue to be well.

The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic continues to have a negative impact on businesses across the nation and around the world. Current Publishing is in that group.

Difficult decisions continue to be made by ownership and the board of directors, some hour by hour, and it still is with unyielding earnestness, empathy and respect that we inform you of important measures we have undertaken to secure the long-term viability of Current in Noblesville.

What began with the editions of April 7 and is expected to last up to and including the editions of June 30, Current will divide its total circulation to Noblesville by approximately 25 percent. That is, in a four-week month, a different quadrant of the community each week will receive Current by mail, and a supply of the editions will be made available at locations each week, including: • Broccoli Bill’s: 15009 N. Gray Rd. Hours of operation are 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday and 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Saturday.

Phone number is 317-580-1517.

• CVS Pharmacy: 14575 Mundy Rd. Hours of operation are 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. Phone number is 317-770-5275.

• Noble Coffee & Tea: 933 Logan St. Be sure to place the order via phone or online, as customers are not allowed in the building.

Hours of operation are 6:30 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Monday through Saturday and 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday. The phone number is 317-7730339 and the website for online ordering is toasttab.com/noblecoffee.

In addition, our practice of making the newspapers available in their entirety online will not change.

Again, as of this writing, this still is an interim measure until we can gain more clarity as the pandemic restrictions fade.

Would you please support us and our advertisers as we continue to be the source for hyper-local news?

Thank you for your understanding.

Sincerely, Brian Kelly Steve Greenberg President/ Executive Vice Publisher President/GM

Guerin Catholic graduate Jonathan earns Ashe honor

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Ashley Jonathan never expected her philanthropic work would earn a national honor.

The Bellarmine ACHIEVEMENT University women’s tennis player, a 2016 Guerin Catholic High School graduate from Westfield, won the Intercollegiate Tennis Association’s NCAA Division II Arthur Ashe Leadership and Sportsmanship Award for Jonathan women’s tennis.

“It’s still kind of unimaginable that I never thought the charity and volunteer work would ever go beyond Bellarmine and my team knowing,” she said. “I’m on Cloud 9 still.”

Jonathan asked her teammates to collect unused hotel personal grooming items while on road trips.

“I’ve always had a soft spot, especially for homeless (people) who don’t have these things,” Jonathan said. “We donated three different times, like mass loads of 12 to 15 baskets, to three different homeless shelters.”

Her next mission was collecting used tennis shoes. She said players go through eight to nine pairs of shoes per year because after two or three matches, the shoes wear out on the bottom and are not as suitable for competition.

“They are still good, wearable shoes, but you just can’t compete in them,” Jonathan said.

So, Jonathan asked her teammates and men’s tennis team players to donate their shoes. Jonathan said approximately 83 pounds of shoes were donated to Soles 4 Souls for those in need in Louisville, Indianapolis and developing nations.

Jonathan’s senior year was cut short with the NCAA canceling spring sports in mid-March due to the coronavirus pandemic. The NCAA has offered spring sport athletes another year of eligibility, and Jonathan has accepted. She is working on a postgraduate degree in physical therapy.

“I’ll be able to play my fall and spring seasons, so I get the whole year back, which is exciting,” Jonathan said.

“What is really cool is Bellarmine is going into Division I for tennis this season, so it’s exciting to be able to call myself a D-1 player.”

Jonathan is only eight victories shy of Bellarmine’s school record for total wins in singles and doubles. She has an overall record of 140-61 and has played No. 1 doubles her en-

tire career at Bellarmine. She played No. 1 singles her junior year and senior year before it was cut short. She played Nos. 2 and 3 singles her first two seasons.

“My hopes are to continue those two donations and, hopefully, pass it on to a sophomore or junior, so the tradition stays on with our team,” Jonathan said.

Jonathan said she has discussed with the athletic department about other Bellarmine teams participating in the donations.

“Ashley Jonathan is a profoundly caring humanitarian,” Bellarmine women’s tennis coach John Mican stated. “The concern she has for her fellow man is far reaching, especially for those less fortunate. The sportsmanship that Ashley displays on and off the court is what really sets her apart as a mature competitor who gives 100 percent at all times.

“Her leadership abilities are second to none and are a major factor in the success the team has achieved during her career.”

State launches testing network, moves to Stage 4

By Jarred Meeks jarred@youarecurrent.com State officials have launched a statewide lab-testing network to increase the number of COVID-19 test swabs that PANDEMIC can be processed in Indiana each day.

The network is a result of a partnership with Eli Lilly and the Indiana Hospital Association.

Currently, the state has a limited amount of testing reagents and equipment available for individual labs. The Indiana State Dept. of Health laboratory and nine other private labs will form a lab-testing network, forging one entity that can purchase reagents and supplies in the international marketplace.

Indiana State Health Commissioner Dr. Kristina Box said the network will allow the state to vie for national and international testing equipment by leveraging the state’s buying power. Box said the state will purchase approximately $60 million of bulk testing reagents and equipment, which the labs will buy from the state.

“This will allow the state to diversify its testing methods in case supplies of reagents for one particular agent are in short supply,” Box said during a June 10 virtual press briefing.

The state reported that it has ordered reagents that will allow labs to double their processing capacity each day, and it is planning to purchase new testing equipment later in August, in a second phase, to further increase lab capacity.

To date, the state has created 202 COVID-19 testing sites in 80 percent of Indiana’s 92 counties.

Stage 4 reopening On June 10, Indiana Gov. Eric Holcomb announced the state will move to Stage 4 of its reopening plan. Holcomb and Box said the four principles the state has used to track its ability to reopen have remained steady or shown improvement. The benchmarks are decreased COVID-19 hospitalizations, retained ICU bed and ventilator capacity, the ability to test anyone with COVID-19 symptoms and the ability to contact trace

all positive cases.

COVID-19 hospitalizations fell from 1,346 May 11 to 902 June 8. The number of daily COVID-19 hospitalizations also decreased from 85 May 8 to 44 June 1. ICU bed capacity has hovered between 37 and 42 percent, and ventilator capacity has remained steady at between 82 and 83 percent for more than two weeks. In addition, more than 650 contact tracers have been hired. But Box said counties such as LaGrange, which has seen a slight uptick in hospitalizations, should reopen with caution.

The state moved from Stage 1, which started March 24, to Stage 2 on May 4 and to Stage 3 on May 22. Holcomb said he is reluctant to predict whether the state will enter Stage 5 of the reopening plan before July 4, the initially scheduled date for the start of the fifth and final stage.

During Stage 5, social gatherings of up to 250 people will be allowed; restaurant dining rooms may open at 75 percent capacity; and bars and nightclubs may open at 50 percent capacity. Movie theaters and bowling centers can open at 50 percent capacity, along with amusement and water parks.

Community youth and adult recreational games, leagues and tournaments will be allowed to resume. But festivals, fairs, parades and carnivals won’t be permitted.

State officials underscored the importance of continued social distancing and sanitization efforts to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

“The data is what is guiding us,” Holcomb said. “We are not alone in this. And so when you look around the country, and you look at some states where the numbers are trending down in a very positive direction, like in the state of Indiana, other states that are trending up in the other direction, so you wonder what happened with the virus and how is it mutating, so there are too many factors to project (further) than four or five days.

“What I do think that this illustrates or underscores for me is we made the right decision early on to hit pause. We hit this hard at the outset, and we are in a better position today because of that.”

Going forward, our patients can expect expanded access to health care services with enhanced safeguards to ensure our sites of care continue to serve as healing environments — where quality care is delivered with the highest levels of safety and compassion.

If you are a family that uses Life Care Planning, this is the time to reach out to your Elder Care Coordinators. They are there to advocate for your family and communicate with the facility to ensure that all your needs are being met and find solutions to any problems.

If you find your anxiety is overwhelming, you can seek group counseling led by a social worker.

Contact Indiana’s ombudsman Every state has a long-term care ombudsman who is responsible for advocating for nursing home residents, addressing complaints and working to solve issues.

Indiana’s ombudsmen are restricted from visiting facilities because of the pandemic, but you can still speak with the ombudsman in your area by phone or email if you have concerns about the care your loved one is receiving. As you can imagine, they are extremely busy right now and it may take two or three business days for them to respond to your questions.

Goddard School Changing the World, One Preschooler at a Time Former non-profit administrator and Goddard School parent opens play-based learning preschool in Noblesville.

When Katy Bird — owner of the new Goddard School in Noblesville on Union Chapel Road — saw her daughter thrive at the Goddard School in Carmel, she wanted other children and families to have that same experience. After spending 10 years at Outside the Box, a non-profit organization, Bird saw that there was a need for a high-quality early childhood education program that provides a play-based learning experience in a nurturing environment. She decided to partner with the on-site owner of the Carmel school, Megan Greek, to expand the brand name in the Indianapolis area.

“I want each child to fall in love with learning and to know how deeply they are cared for by the faculty and staff, who have the privilege of being a part of their lives during their time with us,” Bird says. “I want children to leave The Goddard School with a passion for making a positive impact on the world and with the confidence to know how to do so.” Katy Bird For more information about the Goddard School in Noblesville, visit www.goddardschool.com/Noblesville-IIIIN.

How to choose the right exercise regimen Commentary by Seth Tucker

There are endless workout plans, programs and philosophies on the best way to become fit and healthy. The FITNESS truth of the matter is that there really isn’t a single-best approach for everyone. There are at least two key factors to keep in mind when selecting a path to better physical fitness.

What are your specific goals? Be it strength, physique, anxiety or depression relief, etc. decide why you are starting to train in the first place. The other factor is, what are you willing to do consistently? Consider the types of training and exercise that you find fun or interesting and will keep you coming back. The reasons will be as varied as the individuals who decide them. Once you’ve identified your reasons and motivations, you can better assess what programs or styles of training will be best for you. For example, if your goal is to improve overall strength, you probably won’t see the results you’re looking for by joining a high-intensity group kickboxing class. There’s certainly nothing wrong with such a class, but it wouldn’t address your specific needs.

OUR FUN IS SECOND TO NONE.

However, for the person that really wants to burn some additional calories but hates the idea of running or lifting weights, it may be the perfect approach. It’s worth exploring your options, whether that’s weight training, running, rowing, jiu jitsu or even dancing. Find an activity that moves you toward your goal and that you will enjoy getting better at as you continue training.

Even the “perfect” routine or program is useless if you only do it once and never return to it again. These two points will be the deciding factors for anybody looking to start or change their training regimen.

Another important consideration when choosing a workout program is its longevity. Are you able to consistently engage in this activity without unnecessarily risking the health of your joints? It is important to consider the level of injury risk involved in different training approaches. If you are so focused on the speed of completion or the amount of weight moved during training that you end up injuring yourself, you will be forced to stop training until you have recovered before you can continue. This is a time in which you could be making progress. That is why choosing approaches that

allow you to focus on good form, improving muscular imbalances and increasing strength can be very useful as a long-term approach to training. Some increased risk may be inevitable for those looking to compete and are willing to accept the additional injury risks involved with pushing the limits of your physiology, especially in contact sports like football, soccer, basketball, etc.

Even within these sports you can use supplementary training to help reduce your risk of injury while competing in your sport and hopefully improve your performance as well.

It is easy to get caught up looking for the quickest or “best” approach to your fitness goals. But more important, look for those things you’ll actually stick with, because that is how you achieve the most dramatic results. It pays to play the long game when it comes to your physical well-being.

Longtime Riverview Health volunteer retires

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com At 89, it seems to Carolyn Johns a good time to slow down.

Johns has been a RivGIVING BACK erview Health volunteer since 1989, serving as manager of the gift shop since 1990.

“I will miss working at the hospital because the people are so great,” Johns said.

“There comes a time in life when it’s time Johns to hang up your hat. With this quarantine, it gave me time after 31 years to get adjusted to being home.

It’s always wise when you know that time (to retire) has arrived.”

The Noblesville resident volunteered four hours a day, five days a week for the last several years. She stopped working in mid-March due to the coronavirus pandemic.

“It involved doing all the scheduling and I did a lot of the buying for all the clothing and gift items in the shop. I tried to make sure that everything ran as smoothly as possible,” Johns said. “I love working with people. I love fashion and helping people put an outfit together. I like helping with the displays.”

Johns, who also volunteers for Riverview Health Auxiliary, will definitely be missed.

“Carolyn is one amazing and classy lady,” Riverview Health Volunteer Manager Melinda Nash said. “When I came on board about 1 1/2 years ago, I said that she should have been paid for all of her time and dedication, and she said if I paid her, she would have left and volunteered somewhere else.

“She has given so much of her time and talent to Riverview Health, and we are so grateful for her years here.”

Tricia Hall, Riverview’s director of pulmonary and neuro services who previously had served as the volunteer manger, has known Johns for 20 years.

“She is so kind and funny,” Hall said. “She is honestly the most vibrant 89-year-old I have ever known. I will miss our daily chats about everything, from my kids, her daughter, grandkids and great-grand kids, to solving the world’s problems. I think she gets a little feistier every year. I always tell her I am going to be just like her when I grow up.”

Johns graduated from Noblesville High School in 1949. Her late husband, Edward “Bud” Johns, graduated from NHS in 1945. The couple moved away after getting married but returned in 1987 to help with their parents. Her husband died in 1998.

She had volunteered at a hospital gift shop for several years when living in Michigan. Johns has one daughter, three grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren.

“Growing up in Noblesville was a sheer delight, a safe place,” she said. “A couple of years after we moved back, it went from a small place to what it is now. I love the area.”

DISPATCHES Bicycle sale, donation day scheduled — A used bicycle sale and donation day will be held from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. June 27 at the Recycled Cycles repair shop, 840 E. Main St., Westfield. The countywide initiative will sell more than 20 top-condition bikes at bargain prices, and proceeds will be used to purchase parts to repair other bikes. Last year, Recycled Cycles repaired and gave away more than 400 bicycles to deserving families who might not otherwise have afforded new bikes for Christmas.

The group repairs child and adult bikes throughout the year under the sponsorship of Good Samaritan Network in Hamilton County. Donations of any used bike will be accepted. Parts of unrepairable bikes are salvaged to make other whole bikes. Donation receipts will be issued for any bike dropped off. All bikes will be inspected, repaired, lubricated and adjusted for safe use.

Noblesville Common Council meeting — The next Noblesville Common Council meeting is scheduled for 7 p.m. June 23 at Noblesville City Hall, 16 S. 10th St. For more or to view the agenda, visit cityofnoblesville.org.

The History of Noblesville — The Noblesville Diversity Coalition will conduct the second of a four-part series from 5 to 8 p.m. July 23 at Bethel AME Church, 17777 Little Chicago Rd. This event is called “Episode II: From Railroads to Gas Lights — Journey to 1850-1900.” For more, visit the Noblesville Diversity Coalition Facebook page.

Meeting a need

HEPL provides curbside service, virtual programs; reopens this week

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com

Hamilton East Public Library is doing its part to provide Noblesville and Fishers residents with loan items in a safe manner.

It plans to reopen this week to COVER STORY in-person patrons with modified hours of operation. Patrons are encouraged to wear face coverings, which will be made available at the library.

In addition to reopening its doors, HEPL also will continue offering curbside service for the at-risk population and for those who aren’t ready to venture out.

“The phases align with the stages of Gov. (Eric) Holcomb’s Back on Track plan,” HEPL Director Edra Waterman said. “We have everything in place for people to place holds like they normally do and then follow the process to come to the library and pick those up. It’s a contact-free system where the person Waterman is pulling up and we are putting the materials outside and people are collecting them.”

Besides traditional libray items like books and movies, HEPL is making seeds from its seed library available for curbside pick-up at the Noblesville branch. Moreover, the Ignite Studio at the Fishers branch is making creativity packs available for curbside pick-up at the Noblesville branch.

“The creativity pack envelope has everything you need for a creative activity,” Waterman said. “It does not have to be returned. It is something we are offering as another way to keep people engaged and offer a connection to Ignite.”

At the seed library, 88 varieties are available. Patrons can take home 15 packs at a time.

As for down the road, Deputy Director of Impact Lori Holewinski said in-person programs may return in August.

“August through October we might have some small, in-person offerings. That’s the first time we will be able to make that a possibility, but we will still be doing mostly virtual,” Holewinski said. “We have a COVID-19 occupancy load number from our architect for each of the program rooms, and those numbers are amazingly small.

For the larger program room, the max is 14, so it won’t be what people are used to.”

HEPL’s Communications and Marketing Manager Shelley Huffman said the library has transitioned to virtual programming in the meantime.

“We had to pivot pretty quickly,” Huffman said. “What used to be our events calendar turned into a virtual events calendar, and we have programming for all ages. The more popular ones are Ignite Studio is hosting a weekly artist meet-up opportunity for artists to come together and have discussions (virtually).”

Other virtual programs include English Huffman as a New Language meet-ups, book clubs and the genealogy group.

“We are expanding at a pretty quick pace our virtual program offering,” Waterman said. “We didn’t disrupt services. We expanded our e-book offering’s digital collection (and) we had digital access to library cards for people who didn’t have library cards. We put many things in place to remove barriers.”

In addition to other virtual offerings, the summer read-

ing program launched June 1 and is completely virtual.

Library staff is available through the Chat with a Librarian phone service. Each service desk has a reference package to help direct patrons to public assistance programs that may support their needs. Librarians answer phones from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Thursday, 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Friday and Saturday and 2 to 4 p.m. Sunday.

PROVIDING WI-FI Hamilton East Public Library launched its parking lot Wi-Fi service April 1 in order to serve patrons who may not have access to Wi-Fi at home. The service will continue even when the COVID-19 pandemic ends.

To date, the service has been used by 151 patrons at the Noblesville branch. Its parking lot Wi-Fi attracts approximately 19 new users per week.

ESSAY

LETTER

Handy excuses

Support, don’t ridicule, during crisis

Commentary by Terry Anker We all have our shortcomings. Perhaps our third-grade teacher inadvertently led us to believe that we weren’t very good at coloring, and it stuck. Now, we break out in a cold sweat each time we are in one of those restaurants that have placemats designed to be filled in as we await the service of our food. Any children along at the table will be given crayons and urge us to participate.

Maybe our limitations are biological.

We couldn’t tell the size of a parallel parking spot without the assistance of thousands of dollars of sensor gear installed in our automobiles. Expensively, we misjudge the distance from the front of our car to the garage wall.

Whatever the origination, we learn to know and understand the bounds of what we can be expected to accomplish.

Good. Over-commitment leads to stress in us and disappointment in others.

Now, as all manner of plague seems to have descended on us, we have more debilitations and handicaps in completing our routines than ever in recent memory. Streets are closed. Curfews and other government orders capture us in home detention. Even spring storms seem to urge us to hit the snooze button in the morning and pull the covers over our heads. What could we hope to accomplish, anyway?

Having taken to online delivery and routine carryout, we have learned that some of us are able to adjust more handily than others. Many purveyors have stock delivered days before expected while some delay for weeks, then abruptly cancel. Most “help” desks now keep customers at bay for hours on end — all the while repeatedly lecturing us on their commitment to our health and popular social causes. What about customer service? Why do some overcome our legitimate challenges and others seem prone to hide behind any handy excuse?

Favoring my friendly flora family Commentary by Danielle Wilson It recently occurred to me that I might care more for my plants than I do my children. That sounds terrible and, HUMOR of course, it’s an exaggeration, but I’ve noticed that in the summer I much prefer weeding, watering and dead-heading my garden to cooking, cleaning and managing my offspring. What gives?

I think the main reason is that even though my kids are old enough to take care of themselves, they aren’t to the point where they can completely adult (verb), so there’s this weird dynamic happening in our house where I still want to enforce chores and curfews and they perpetually want to give me the finger.

Snapdragons and squash are far nicer to live with. They don’t roll their eyes or leave their cereal bowls on the coffee table. They don’t listen to “The Office” at high volume or constantly “borrow” cash for gas (like I’ll

ever see that money again). Sure, a tomato plant can’t tell me it loves me, but when it blossoms and a tiny green orb begins to grow, it’s basically the same thing.

I’ve also noticed that my garden floras are far better listeners than my precious little angels. Not once has a zinnia interrupted or a foxglove texted while I shared my innermost thoughts and concerns. And I’ve never experienced moments of awkward silence with my ferns or begonias. They seem happy just to have me near, gently pruning and fertilizing, unlike my heirs who flee as soon as I try to engage because they think I’m going to lecture them on laundry etiquette. Which I probably am.

That’s why I prefer my plants!

Peace out.

Snapdragons and squash are far nicer to live with. They don’t roll their eyes or leave their cereal bowls on the coffee table.

Editor, I have been on this planet for three quarters of a century. During this time, I have survived multiple heart attacks and three open-heart surgeries. Now, I begin each day buoyed by my faith and with a strong belief in the collective power of the American spirit.

Regardless of one’s political bent, it is time to believe in that spirit – the spirit that has served our country through wars, segregation, economic missteps, 9/11 and, of course, the most unimaginable ravage caused by disease, the pandemic of 2020.

As Americans, we have always had each other’s backs in these difficult times. Counting on our neighbors, friends and even strangers when faced with the most difficult of these challenges, Americans show their collective strengths and bravery in overcoming the most serious circumstances.

Today, we must keep our politics completely to ourselves. Believing in the country and upon the principles of our foundation are critical to our future.

It is time to support all of our elected representatives and for them to work together.

DISPATCH

Hoosiers must work more to pay rent — A new report Self Financial pinpoints how many hours of work it takes in order to pay rent in every U.S. state. The economy has been dealt a major blow by the coronavirus pandemic, making rent anywhere more difficult to afford than ever. By analyzing the median cost of rent in each state, as well as the median hourly wage there, researchers at Self Financial have determined the locations where it is toughest to make rent in the country. The analysis found that residents in Indiana need to work 31.4 hours per week to afford rent for a 1-bedroom dwelling and 39.0 hours per week for a 2-bedroom. Indiana residents must work the 14th-fewest hours per week in order to afford rent. To see the report, visit self.inc/blog/work-hours-to-pay-rent.

Keep cool (and safe) in the pool Commentary by Cindy Love Pools are a wonderful way to cool off and have fun during the summer. However, the Centers for Disease Control CHILDREN and Prevention reports that drowning is the leading cause of death for children between age 1 and 4.

Make your pool safe Backyard pools should be surrounded by at least a 4-foot fence with a locked gate to prevent a child from entering a pool unattended. Consider a pool alarm to alert you if someone falls into the pool. Inflatable pools can pose a risk as a child can lean against the side and fall face-first into the pool.

Keep these pools drained unless an adult is supervising. If a child is missing, always check the pool first.

Use appropriate floatation devices If a child can’t swim, he or she needs to wear a floatation device to stay safe.

Life jackets or “puddle jumpers” are good options for children until they learn how to swim confidently. Inflatable “floaties” are not safe as they can deflate, or a child can slide them off on their own.

Start swim classes early It’s important for children to not fear the water and learn survival skills such as float-

ing and treading water. Swim lessons don’t ever replace supervision around water!

Plan for supervision Adult supervision is key to keeping children safe. Avoid being distracted by other activities, such as reading or a cellphone, even if a lifeguard is present. Children under age 5 should always be within “touch” supervision of an adult. If your child is going swimming with a friend’s family or babysitter, let them know about your child’s swimming abilities.

Cindy Love is a childbirth educator and pediatric nurse practitioner at IU Health North Hospital in Carmel.

DISPATCHES IU Health easing visitor restrictions — Indiana University Health has begun relaxing some of the temporary visitor restrictions put in place at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. The revised guidelines allow for one visitor per patient, per day in inpatient areas. Each visitor will be screened and given a mask, which must be worn at all times inside the facility. Visitors must be 18 or older and will not be allowed for patients who have tested positive for COVID-19.

Visitors in emergency departments, ambulatory surgery centers, outpatient clinics and medical offices will be facilitated on a case-by-case basis depending on space and ability to maintain social distancing measures. IU Health has taken additional steps to ensure safety for patients, visitors and team members at each location. Providers and patient-facing team members always wear masks where patient care is provided.

Patients and visitors will also be required to wear masks, which are provided at no cost.

IU Health supports social distancing guidelines by redesigning spaces and displaying

six-foot distances wherever possible and is working to significantly decrease (or even eliminate) the time patients spend in waiting rooms. IU Health also has enhanced disinfecting procedures to ensure spaces and surfaces remain thoroughly clean throughout the day. For more, visit iuhealth.org.

Versiti has immediate need for blood donors — The need for blood donations has decreased the past few months as hospitals have focused on the treatment of COVID-19 patients. But the need for blood has quickly shifted as hospitals resume surgeries and anticipate trauma cases to increase as stay-at-home orders are relaxed in some communities. Versiti Blood Center of Indiana indicates a high need for donations of O-negative blood, the universal blood type used in trauma situations.

Carmel Film Forum will feature Stop Motion Animation presentation

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com The fourth Carmel Film Forum will not only tackle a new subject but also a new format.

FILMMAKING Professional animator Lisa Barcy will be the featured presenter at the Stop Motion Animation Celebration webinar.

“She has a wonderful body of work,” said James E. Moriarty, founder of the event and Moriarty Media.

Barcy “She was going to do a hands-on workshop with us at the library, but because of COVID-19, it became virtual.”

The Carmel resident said the Film Forum was restructured so Barcy, from Chicago, can lead a free virtual webinar from 2 to 4 p.m. June 20 and 27. It will consist of two sessions, co-hosted by Moriarty Media and Carmel Clay Public Library’s Audiovisual Services Supervisor Sara O’Sha. Barcy will teach animation techniques employing drawing, paper cut-outs and 3-D objects at the first session.

“The Film Forum is all about getting your hands dirty and doing things,” Moriarty said. “We’re basically going to teach how to make animation from your cellphone.

This class is for beginners for Stop Motion and would be good for the animation-curious people in your life. You don’t know how to do all these techniques. We’re going to train from the get-go. We’ll teach drawing techniques.”

Participants will be encouraged to make an animated clip, using the techniques demonstrated, and upload the clips by June 25 to be judged. The winner will receive a license to a copy of the Dragonframe professional stop motion animation software, a $300 value.

“You don’t need to have sound. It doesn’t need to be fancy,” Moriarty said.

“You just have to apply things you’ve learned in the class.”

Barcy will announce the winner at the

Professional animator Lisa Barcy will be featured presenter at the Carmel Film Forum. Above, an example of Barcy’s animation. (Submitted photo)

June 27 session. All animated clips will have been edited into a musical montage for screening. The entire winning clip will be shown.

There will be a clip of Barcy’s work and a Q&A session with Barcy will follow.

“It’s nice to learn how people do things who can collaborate with you and you can learn from their process and how they’ve built up their body of work over the years,” Moriarty said. “Lisa has got a great sense of humor and I think people will really be attracted to it.”

Previous forum topics have included screenwriting, preproduction and the business of filmmaking.

“All of our forums have applied application to it and something interactive or hands-on about them,” Moriarty said.

“We’ve got through creating a film, writing and producing it, and we’ve come back around to we wanted to do something even younger people can participate in, so

we did animation. Next year we will probably do documentary. We find someone in the community to share their body of work and experiences.”

Participants can register at carmelclaylibrary.org/event/4314576. Moriarty said a CCPL card isn’t required. A webinar link will be emailed to the participant, along with a program/curriculum and a list of tools, software and supplies needed for the workshop. Seats for the webinar are free but limited.

“With the library and its help, these things can grow their circle of influence to get people to see filmmaking as an art form,” Moriarty said. “The tools are at your fingertips. All you need is a phone and an app.”

The Carmel Film Forum is sponsored by CCPL, the City of Carmel, Moriarty Media and the Indy Film Fest.

Barcy’s animation can be viewed at vimeo.com/418560545.

The time is now to engage Commentary from Jeffrey C. McDermott The crux of being a good person, a great community and a great nation is a sense of empathy and duty to PALLADIUM protect and lift up those in harm’s way. Recent events and nationwide protests demonstrate that COVID-19 is not the only “pandemic” we face. Systemic racism and injustice is an insidious virus that good people must work to eradicate.

The Center for the Performing Arts’ mission is to engage and inspire the central Indiana community through enriching arts experiences. We are part of the fabric and spirit of this community and have a responsibility to take action and be part of the solution.

To that end, we are recommitting ourselves to our core values of Excellence, Integrity, Collaboration, Innovation and, in particular, Inclusion. As first steps, we will implement diversity training for our staff and volunteers and redouble our efforts to engage a broader audience that reflects all of central Indiana.

Where Form Beautifully Meets Function Elevate your outdoor living spaces with CASE Design/Remodeling and Trex® Composite Decking.

Music can be a catalyst for change. It represents a peaceful way to speak up, to speak out and to heal. It knows no geographic, socioeconomic or racial boundaries.

Since the dawn of humanity, music has told stories of strife and triumph, loss and love.

We at the Center recognize our unique position to participate in the storytelling and the healing, and we will do so.

While no single one of us can rectify the inequality and discrimination embedded in our culture, we can and must act now, make positive differences, protect and lift people up, and keep our eyes and ears wide open. An inspiring quotation often attributed to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. states, “If I cannot do great things, I can still do small things in a great way.”

The time is now for each of us to do just that.

Commentary by Anna Skinner Address: 14029 Mundy Dr., Fishers What to get: Lamb chops Price: $7.99 a pound Anna’s take: Some people may still be a bit nervous about venturing out to restaurants during the COVID-19 pandemic, but the good thing is, they can venture to Almadina International Halal Foods, a small grocery in northern Fishers, and purchase items to make an excellent meal at home. Almadina let me sample lamb chops, lamb shank, several fresh pastries and kufta, which is a ground mix of cilantro, onion, spices and lamb. My favorite was the lamb chops.

Almadina sources its lamb from a farm in North Vernon, so it’s very fresh. It also has an excellent price point at $7.99 a pound,

Lamb chops with rosemary from Almadina International Halal Foods. (Photo by Anna Skinner)

which is much more affordable than many other local spots. I browned the chops in a pan, then roasted them in the oven with rosemary, lemon, garlic and olive oil, and it was so rich and delicious. For someone who rarely cooks, using the high-quality meat from Almadina and an easy-to-follow recipe, I was able to cook something fit for an Easter dinner.

Suggested pairings: I grabbed a cabernet sauvignon from the grocery, but I think any dry red would pair well with lamb.

Behind bars: Golden Hour (banana daiquiri) Get it at Field Brewing, Westfield Ingredients: 2 oz. amber rum, .75 oz. fresh lime juice, .5 oz. banana sugar, .25 oz. banana liqueur, lemon wheel and lime peel for garnish Directions: Shake all ingredients for 30 seconds and double-strain through conical strainer into coupe.

Garnish with a thinly sliced lime wheel to float and lime peel expressed over drink and rubbed on rim. To make the banana sugar, use 1 bunch of ripe bananas with 2 cups brown sugar and 2 cups hot water and simmer for 15 minutes.

Blueprint for Improvement: Elevated screened porch in Geist Commentary by Larry Greene

After

Before

THE SOLUTION 1. The upper-level deck, located off the kitchen, was removed and replaced with a custom screened porch. New footers were installed in the ground to accommodate the addition.

2. The porch was designed to blend seamlessly with the existing home. Considerations were made when planning the roofline and, of course, in selecting materials to complement what was already there.

3. Aluminum balusters were added to the screened porch to provide an attractive safety feature.

4. The ceiling beams were painted in a contrasting color to accentuate the design detail.

THE CHALLENGE Located a few steps from Geist Reservoir, the owners of this 1995 home wanted to create additional living space for enjoying the outdoors. The home had plenty of open deck space along the back of the house, so the homeowners wanted to add an elevated screened-in area for dining and relaxing.
