On Aug. 25, Hamilton County Tourism unveiled the 10-foot “White River Monster” sculpture, the subject of local lore. According to county historian David Heighway, in 1892, two men drove a wagon down Cicero Pike and claimed to have spotted a large animal in the river described as “a huge serpent 12 feet in length and perhaps 3 feet in circumference with a forked tail.” Later that month, four men found a carcass of a dead cow caught on branches in the river, which they figured to be the White River Monster. Heighway pauses by the monster sculpture, which is titled “William Herman Hamilton.”

Also known as “Willie,” the sculpture will travel around the county this fall. (Photo by Anna Skinner)

Chocolate Trail to return

By Sadie Hunter sadie@youarecurrent.com Since 2014, Noblesville Main Street has presented a niche event for those who love downtown and DOWNTOWN chocolate.

This year, Chocolate Trail will return from 5 to 9 p.m. Sept. 6 as the organization’s monthly First Friday festivity.

“It is a really relaxed, fun evening,” said Lorna Steele, executive director of Noblesville Main Street. “Guests will come to the orange Noblesville Main Street tent (on the downtown square) and pick up their map.

The event runs from 5 to 9 p.m., but it is really a come-and-go-as-you-please event.

“I recommend eating dinner downtown and then doing Chocolate Trail for dessert.”

Participants visit downtown shops for samples of chocolate and other refreshments and get their map stamped at each location. When the map is filled, guests return it to the Noblesville Main Street tent by 9 p.m. to be entered in a drawing for prizes.

Steele said the event has grown during its five years.

“If the weather holds up, I expect at least

500 people, maybe more,” she said. “Our attendance has definitely grown every year, which is awesome. I think just the title of ‘Chocolate Trail’ attracts a lot of people. This year, we also are involving Hamilton County Tourism and their ‘White River Monster’ (sculpture), which will be super cute for the kids and a fun photo op.”

Participating businesses and organizations include Lil Bloomers, Old Picket Fence, Nickel Plate Arts, Texy Mexy, Little Gypsie Boutique, The Mix, Bash Boutique, Shine Yoga, Noblesville Antique Mall, Noble Made, Hamilton County Tourism, Linden Tree and Caravan Classes.

Participation in Chocolate Trail is free. For more, visit noblesvillemaintsreet.org.

SENIOR VOLUNTEER OF THE YEAR

Noblesville man honored for home-repair work, giving back

By Sadie Hunter • sadie@youarecurrent.com Lamar Ziegler is busier now than before he retired.

Physically, the latter years of his career in engineering pale in comparison to the work he does now at age 71 COVER STORY repairing homes 6 1/2 days each week.

“On Sunday mornings, I go to church,” said Ziegler, a Noblesville resident.

Ziegler volunteers full time for a litany of area organizations, focusing entirely on home repair for low-income residents or those with disabilities in Hamilton County.

Growing up in northern Huntington County, Ziegler said he learned his home repair skills from his family and the area farm community.

“We had extensive extended family, and I had a couple cousins who were always helping, whether it was neighbors, friends or family,” he said. “Like if a neighbor farmer would get hurt, everyone would come together to plant or harvest his crop or bale his hay or tend to his animals, whatever was needed. That made an impression on me.

Growing up on the farm, I had lots of life skills – carpentry, plumbing, electrical. My father was an electrician, brother-in-law a plumber.

“Over the years, I’ve expanded and developed those as I got into various home repair projects. I’ve watched a lot of YouTube videos.”

Eventually, Ziegler attended college, started his career and got married. But nearly 20 years ago, a group of men from Emmanuel United Methodist Church started small home-repair projects for members.

“The Bible talks about helping others,” Ziegler said. “It started by doing things for church members, but then it kind of branched out.

We put a roof on the parsonage 35 years ago. We put a roof on the church secretary’s house, and then we just started doing more. I once got a call from a lady whose arthritis wouldn’t let her turn on the water valve on the garden hose for winter, so I just went up there and turned the valve off. It was very simple, but sometimes the jobs were that or were as extensive as a roof.”

After 49 years of working in Indiana, Ohio and Kentucky as a civil engineer, Ziegler was laid off from his job in 2007 during the housing slump.

“I had to find something to do with my time,” he said. “I loved doing home repair, so that’s when I really got involved with volunteering more or less full time.”

Today, Ziegler works with a team of fellow volunteers through Shepherd’s Center of Hamilton County.

“The neat thing about Shepherd’s Center is they are a senior advocate group,” Ziegler said. “They do all kinds of activities with seniors.

From left, Tara DeBoo, CICOA volunteer coordinator; Kay Ziegler; Lamar Ziegler and Mary Durell, CICOA interim CEO. (Submitted photo)

They have trips, bingo, lunches, but then they have this little corner called home repair, and that’s what I’m involved in, the Hamilton County Home Repair Partnership, which is Habitat for Humanity, HAND, Shepherd’s Center, Serve Noblesville, Christmas in Action, Good Samaritan Network, Noblesville Housing Authority. We all work together.”

Ziegler is the project manager, assessing homes for clients selected by other organizations. Working with a small budget through Shepherd’s Center, Ziegler said his team relies heavily on donations of building materials and supplies to do the repairs for those with immediate medical needs, like building a wheelchair ramp, or for those facing imminent eviction. Ziegler said in many cases, evictions are the result of residents who are physically limited and not being able to keep up their property. The team completes projects out of necessity, he said, and never as a cosmetic improvement.

“Some of our clients receive $700 a month in Social Security, and that’s it,” Ziegler said. “You can’t live on that. Yes, you can go get food stamps or use Hamilton County Transit, but when it comes to home repair, the client likely doesn’t have money left over after they’ve paid utilities and other bills, so that’s where me and my team come in. That’s the good news. The bad news is that we’re always short of volunteers, team leaders and money. We can always use all three of those.

“Anybody interested in volunteering has to pass the mirror test. I’ll hold a mirror up to your face, and if I see your breath, you’re qualified because we train you.”

Lamar Ziegler recently was named the 2019 Senior Volunteer of the Year by the Central Indiana Council on Aging.

“CICOA’s primary function is to allow seniors to age in their homes,” Ziegler said. “There are several reasons for doing that. Most important is that the client feels at home. We have one client who has Alzheimer’s, but she knows in her house where everything is. Her doctor has advised that if she is removed from that environment with her mental condition, she will decline further. We did a floor repair, fascia repair, trimmed some brush and basically got the home to where she could stay in the house. So, clients like that need to stay in their homes as they are physically able to. It’s far cheaper to spend a little bit of money to fix up a house to keep a person in their house than it is to put them in assisted living or a nursing home.

“I admire CICOA because that’s a win-win. You keep the person in their home, and you keep them out of more expensive housing.”

Another example is a 44-year-old who has suffered three strokes and can’t work. Ziegler and his team worked in the client’s home to rehang drapery and fix flooring and woodwork in her home.

“I hate to say that many of the clients we serve are much younger than I am, and they’ll never see age 71,” Ziegler said. “So, we want to make their lives as comfortable and convenient as possible.”

As of Aug. 15, Ziegler’s team, through Shepherd’s Center, has worked on more than 41 homes this year, and he has worked on several others through other organizations. Homes often require more than one repair. Recently, a home required an extensive porch rebuild, new trim, electrical work, a back porch deck and ramp.

“I love doing this. The smile on people’s faces when they can now do something they could not do before, like take a shower or walk out of a new doorway, it’s priceless,” Ziegler said. “That makes it all worth it, so I intend to do this as long as the Lord keeps me physically able. I’m not jumping off of ladders anymore, and I do have some limitations and lots of scars.”

ESSAY

LETTER

Nuanced ‘truth’

Anker column ‘thought provoking’ Editor, Throughout our family’s nearly five years in Noblesville, I had read Current rather infrequently until the past year or so. Just busy with other priorities. However, I wanted to tip my hat to (essayist Terry Anker) for writing the “Giving thanks” column April 16. It was thought-provoking and poignant for our times. I also appreciate that he offers some type of faith in his articles, and it is welcoming to see in print media.

Craig Marolf, Noblesville

Commentary by Terry Anker Checkout lines at the grocery store are the same the world over.

Rows of candy, eye-height for a 9-year-old, mark the corridor to the cash register. They share the space with numerous tabloids whose headlines grab the attention of even the most harried and distracted passerby.

As children, we come to know that just the right bit of nudging could get mom to buy us the Snickers while she is emptying our overflowing cart onto the conveyor belt. As we first master letters and then reading, the colorful headlines capture our imagination.

We promise to forego the candy if mom will throw one of the magazines into the cart with the Hamburger Helper and mac and cheese.

Soon in the car, we open the pages, eager to learn about the secret government plot to put growth hormones into our milk and make us giants equipped to fight the Russian menace. Alas, like many disappointments of our youth, we quickly learn that the headlines often don’t match the content. The “stunning” discoveries are not discoveries at all. Instead, they are carefully worded deceptions intended to tell a lie without really telling one.

Has it changed much through the decades? Media still uses the ploy to get us to look. Seemingly every restaurant and public space is festooned with countless video monitors tirelessly looped with CNN or other outlets. The screen crawls with horrific headlines, unabashedly misleading and provocative.

What a front page calls fact, the full article ultimately surrenders to be more nuanced.

Doctor will be missed

My cup runneth empty — cheers!

Commentary by Danielle Wilson I’m luxuriating in a silent, clean, mostly empty house right now and am thrilled to report that barring any unforeseen circumstances, this is pretty much HUMOR what my domestic life will look like for the next four months.

Blessed be the fruit!

In this case, the delicious fruit is college.

That’s right, friends, three of our four heirs have left the building, hopefully not returning until the holidays. Don’t get me wrong, I love them. But teenagers and 20-year-olds are messy, loud, expensive, meat-eating machines who are only nice to their moms when they want food or money. They bake cookies at midnight, totally unconcerned with the noise they are making while a certain mother attempts to sleep above them.

They invite their posses over for all-you-caneat buffets featuring the Wilson pantry and refrigerator/freezer. And they hoard clothes and tchotchkes like nobody’s business.

Our youngest is still around, but she is so busy with school and dance and socializing that we rarely see her. Praise be, my husband, Doo, and I are basically empty nesters.

I come home after work to a sink that holds no dishes. I go to bed enjoying an Xbox-free silence. I shop at Meijer maybe once a week.

Talk about your miracles! I can even bingewatch “The Handmaid’s Tale” in the actual living room, on the TV. People told me I’d feel sad and lonely without the general bustle of kids underfoot, that I’d miss the energy that comes from a big family coexisting under one roof.

They were liars. I love it, almost as much as I love my children. In college. Under someone else’s eye.

Peace out.

Editor, Recently, Hamilton County suffered a great loss: The well-deserved retirement of Dr. Marla Guzman.

Through the decades, Dr. Guzman provided her compassion, wisdom and clinical acumen to thousands and thousands of Hamilton County residents. How many lives have been touched, how many bodies and souls healed by this dedicated physician?

Marla, you will be sorely missed by your patients and colleagues. We wish you all the best.

Thank you for your decades of selfless service to Hamilton County.

DISPATCH Natural pain remedy — If over-the-counter pain relievers cause you stomach distress, or you just want to try a natural remedy, try white willow bark. It’s a pain reliever that has anti-inflammatory benefits similar to those of aspirin, but unlike aspirin, it doesn’t appear to damage the stomach lin-

ing. It can be used as a remedy for relieving the pain of headaches, menstrual cramps, low back pain, osteoarthritis and more.

White willow bark is available online and in health food stores in capsule form.

ATI newcomers eager for roles in ATI musical

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Tony Carter fell in love with “Dirty Rotten Scoundrels” instantly.

“I was actually in high COMEDY school and saw the show on Broadway,” Carter said.

“Brian d’Arcy James was playing the role of Freddy Benson. I love the music and I grew up with the movie with Steve Martin.

It’s a fantastically challenging role. I was playing a con artist who plays a lot of different characters.

“It’s an incredibly funny role and I’m excited to bring my own personal flavor to it.”

Carter, a Chicago resident who is originally from Las Vegas, plays grifter Benson in Actors Theatre of Indiana’s production of “Dirty Rotten Scoundrels” Sept. 6 to 29 at the Studio Theatre at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel Carter said he attended ATI auditions in Chicago and came down for call-backs to audition for all the shows in the 2019-20 season, which kicks off with “Dirty Rotten Scoundrels.”

“This was my favorite and I was really gunning for it,” he said. “The songs are funny. There is a lot of quick-witted dialogue.”

Carter is acting in the Indianapolis area for the first time. Like Carter, Deborah Hill is making her ATI debut. Hill, who grew up in Lafayette and attended Anderson University, lives in Dayton, Ohio. She will play Christine Colgate.

“I was looking for theaters in the area where I could work,” she said. “I researched the show and role. It’s a great role for any actress.”

Hill said she enjoys comedic roles but doesn’t get to do them a lot.

“I usually do the serious, more ingenue roles,” Hill said. “She seems like a onedimensional character, but it takes a plot twist and I really get to delve into her. The songs are amazing. It’s a great vocal challenge for me.”

TJ Lancaster, from Kansas City, has not seen or heard the musical version of the show, which was a 1988 movie with Michael Caine and Steve Martin.

Bourbon trail launches editorial@youarecurrent.com September is National Bourbon Heritage Month. So Greg Kissinger, a Fishers resident who works for Republic National Distributing Co., figured a Carmel Bourbon Trail would be a good fit.

“It’s a cool, conceptional thing,” Kissinger said.

There are 22 restaurants and bars, ranging from Anthony’s Chophouse to Old Town Tavern, taking part in the trail.

Visitors can ask if there is a Bourbon Trail special at participating spots. Brands featured are Jim Beam Black, Knob Creek, Basil Hayden’s, Maker’s Mark, Buffalo Trace and Eagle Rare.

Other participants include 3 UP (above Anthony’s Chophouse), Charleston’s, The Pint Room, Convivo, Prime 47, Bar Louie, Divvy, Prodigy Burger & Bar, Brockway Public House, Donatello’s, Renaissance Hotel, The Broken Barrel, Fork & Ale House, Sahm’s Ale House, Bru Burger Bar, Matt The Miller’s Tavern, Texas Roadhouse, Burgerhaus, Nippers Grill & Tap and Woody’s Library Restaurant.

“It was a great surprise to get a chance to work on it,” said Lancaster, who is performing as suave con man Lawrence Jamieson. “I loved the movie back in the day. I love the ‘Odd Couple’ quality of highclass con man and a street con man. It’s laugh after laugh. It’s high-class comedy and goofy, vulgar comedy together. That’s what makes it so great.”

Lancaster was previously in “The Mystery of Edwin Drood” at ATI in 2018.

Michael Blatt, who attended North Central High School with ATI co-founder Judy Fitzgerald, is returning to direct with ATI. Blatt, based in New York, directed “The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee” in 2018.

“I loved it. The show was great. It was so good to be back in Indianapolis,” Blatt said of the 2018 show. “My roots are here. I did Jr. Civic and Footlite Musicals. It was a full-circle moment to come back and work professionally here.”

Blatt has never been with a production of “Dirty Rotten Scoundrels” but has plenty

of exposure to it.

“I was lucky enough when I was in New York, my best friend and roommate was the assistant choreographer of the Broadway show, so I got to see it a lot,” Blatt said. “I got to know all the cast members.

I got to know about the process. I’m also a personal trainer and I got to train the book writer for the show because he was one of my clients. It was interesting to be on the edges of the production.”

The cast was originally designed for 30.

“We’re doing a streamlined version of the show, but still (presenting) the whole show with a cast of 10,” Blatt said. “There are five ensemble members who rotate to play different roles. This is one of the first times they’ve done a streamline before, so we’re going to make our own version of ‘Dirty Rotten Scoundrels.’”

Carol Worcel is the choreographer.

Fitzgerald and fellow ATI co-founder Don Farrell are part of the cast.

Kids can enjoy high energy, family friendly rock ‘n’ roll when Kid Kazooey & the BallRoom Roustabouts hit the MUSIC stage Sept. 14 at the Center for the Performing Arts as part of the Peanut Butter & Jam series. It’s the second time the Bloomington-based group will perform at the center.

“The BallRoom Roustabouts play rock ‘n’ roll/pop music not unlike They Might Be Giants or NRBQ or the Violent Femmes, but at low volumes and with thematic material that matches our mission statement and is always all-ages appropriate,” said Kevin MacDowell, aka Kid Kazooey. “We play mostly original music, with a few choice cover tunes thrown in. Like the golden years of Sesame Street, we play first for children’s enjoyment and then aim strategically just over their heads to let their parents know we haven’t forgotten about them.”

The BallRoom Roustabouts formed when MacDowell, who had recently graduated from Indiana University and was waiting tables at restaurants in Bloomington while trying to get a foot in the door as a librarian, met a “creative and talented” musician who cooked at one of the restaurants. They had a vision to create a dance band and

Fritz receives arts grant

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com When it was time to apply for an Indiana Arts Commission grant, Corbin Fritz knew what play he wanted to FILM use for production. “‘Uncle Vanya’ by Anton Chekhov was chosen because I, and many people with whom I frequently work, have a deep love for the author,” Fritz said. “I, and many of my friends and colleagues, have studied Chekhov’s work at the Moscow Art Theatre School in Moscow, Russia, where Chekhov served as playwright-in-residence.”

The 2014 Noblesville High School graduate and Carmel resident will produce a production of ‘Uncle Vanya’ as a live-cinema experience. During the show’s run, Fritz will offer three free workshops for Indiana artists and students to learn about the new bridging of cinematic technology and theater.

Fritz recently received a $2,000 grant

from the Indiana Arts Commission’s Individual Advancement Program.

“I’ve worked on many versions and adaptations of Chekhov’s work, but never on ‘Vanya,’ and the more time passed, the more the dream to direct the play became pronounced and unavoidable,” said Fritz, a full-time freelance theater artist who does lighting, sound and video design and who also teaches and directs. “However, I always wanted to give the piece the attention and production value Fritz ALALLL it deserves, and then along came WW EDEN taetded DE NSEDSA a DYASYS R R the IAP grant, and it seemed like the perfect $ $ -1313 252!5!

Commentary by Don Knebel Many people are aware that the “Lord of the Rings” series was filmed in New Zealand. Fewer know that one TRAVEL of its locations has become a popular tourist attraction.

In 1998, director Peter Jackson, a New Zealand resident, engaged a helicopter crew to find a site with topography matching his vision of Hobbiton, a village in the mythical Shire of J.R.R. Tolkien’s books. He selected a 1,200-acre sheep and cattle farm, with rolling grassy hills and a small lake, in the Waikato region in the upper North Island, about 100 miles south of Auckland. Workers transformed 14 acres of the farm into Hobbiton, building the exteriors of about 40 Hobbit homes of various sizes and colors from plywood and polystyrene and planting gardens and hedges. Workers constructed a huge artificial tree atop one of the hills and created the façade of the doublearched bridge and mill near the lake. When filming ended in early 2000, about half of the Hobbit home exteriors remained and visitors started coming to the farm to get a look at Hobbiton. In 2002, the family owning the farm began offering guided tours of the

Dab a bit of white toothpaste onto the minor scratch, and rub it in with a damp sponge. Wipe the scratch area completely clean with a dry cloth, and your scratch should be gone.

area.

Jackson and his team returned to the site in 2009 to film “The Hobbit” trilogy. This time, crews constructed the exteriors of 44 Hobbit homes from more permanent materials and added details that would withstand closer inspection. Because the interior scenes of the Hobbit homes were filmed in a studio, the interiors of the homes are not finished.

In 2012, a replica of the Green Dragon Inn, serving refreshments, was added at the end

Grill pan waffles — If you don’t have a waffle iron but you’re craving some homemade waffles, just put your favorite waffle recipe on a greased grill pan instead. Mix up your batter and pour some into the hot grill pan. Cook for a few minutes on each side and serve as you would normally serve regular waffles.

Correct grammar, Yoda’s speech is Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt I’ll have to admit, I don’t know much about “Star Wars.” Somehow, I missed the window to watch the GRAMMAR GUY movies during my formative years. Although I have glasses, write about grammar and prefer staying inside, my lack of “Star Wars” appreciation makes others seriously second-guess my nerd street cred.

Yoda is an awesome green Muppet who could go toe-to-toe with Chuck Norris in a head-to-head matchup.

But is Yoda’s grammar correct? His sentence structure is certainly odd. He says things like, “When nine hundred years old you reach, look as good you will not.”

Odd, that sounds. Talking like this, I don’t know why I am.

For the most part, English syntax (how we arrange our words) follows the same pattern. In order for a sentence to be complete, it needs a subject and a predicate.

The predicate always includes a verb and often includes an object.

Most English sentences follow the subject-verb-object order. In one of these popular laser sword space movies, according to Google, Darth Vader says, “I find your lack of faith disturbing.” In this sentence, “I” is the subject, “find” is the verb and “lack of faith” is the object. Many other “Star Wars” quotes follow this subject-verb-object pattern. “I am your father.” “I think I just blasted it.” “Women always figure out the truth. Always.”

Yoda’s syntax follows a distinctly different pattern. For the most part, his sentences follow the object-subject-verb pattern. Let’s take this quote from Yoda: “Truly wonderful the mind of a child is.” In this sentence, “wonderful” appears first, serving as the object. This is followed by “mind,” the sentence’s subject. Finally, we get the verb, “is.” Object-subject-verb. Here’s a double: “Powerful (object) you (subject) have (verb) become; the dark side (object) I (subject) sense (verb) in you.” All of these sentences contain a subject and a predicate.

Therefore, the answer to the question is: Yes, Yoda’s speech pattern is grammatically correct; strange to our ears, it just sounds.
