Riverview Health keeps growing

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Riverview Health continues to expand its reach.

President/ STATE OF HEALTH CEO Seth Warren gave the State of Health presentation Nov. 20 at Ivy Tech’s Noblesville campus.

Warren reminded the audience that as a county hospital, Riverview Health is owned by Hamilton County and is an independent hospital network.

“For the last 110 years, we’ve been able to serve Hamilton County and grow with Hamilton County,” Warren said. “Taxpayers do not support us. We are independent financially.

The county commissioners provide oversight.”

In addition to its Noblesville hospital, Riverview Health opened its second hospital in Westfield a year ago.

“We’re excited to be in Westfield as Westfield continues to grow,” he said.

There is an urgent care component along with emergency room service.

“Some people don’t know what they need, so you don’t have to figure that out,” Warren said. “There are emergency room nurses. We have all the capabilities.”

Room and Urgent Care opened in November at 9690 E. 116th St. “We are in the process of opening up three additional locations,” Warren said.

One will be at 14585 Hazel Dell Pkwy. in Carmel in April 2020. Another will open in the West Carmel/Zionsville market at 10830 Michigan Rd., Zionsville.

“We just broke ground on that, so we are looking for early fall (2020) to open up,” Warren said. “We are looking at opening up a free-standing operation in the Nora area to serve south Hamilton County. We are really

expanding our footprint.”

Warren said Riverview Health continues to add new services in Noblesville as well. Riverview recently opened the Courtney Cox Cole Infusion Center in Noblesville. It is named for Cole, a former Noblesville High School basketball and golf standout and former owner of Hare Chevrolet.

Cole died of nonsmokers lung cancer Sept. 22 at age 48.

Warren said Cole’s parents, Dave and Jacqueline Cox, and her sister, Monica Peck, and her husband Darren, as well as Courtney Cox Cole herself, made a large donation.

A video was played detailing the reasons for the center. Cox was treated at Riverview and loved the Riverview staff but noted that the center was crowded and had no windows.

Cole and her family wanted a brighter, more upbeat atmosphere for cancer patients undergoing treatment at the Noblesville hospital.

Donations are still being collected by the Riverview Health Foundation.

Warren said donations have been received from acroos the nation because of the people Cole touched.

“We do more than 10,000 infusions a year in that space,” Warren said.

“It is triple the space of our previous infusion center.”

Man dies installing holiday decorations news@currentnoblesville.com An investigation is under way following a man’s death in downtown Noblesville.

INVESTIGATION At 12:19 p.m.

Nov. 20, Noblesville police and fire personnel responded to the 100 block of N. Eighth Street after a call for an injured person. Emergency responders located a

Altrusa celebrates 30 years

By Renee Larr news@currentnoblesville.com The Altrusa Club of Hamilton County is celebrating 30 years of giving back and making a difference CLUBS for Hamilton County residents. The club was chartered in 1989 at Woodland Country Club in Carmel and is a local chapter of Altrusa International.

Altrusa International, which focuses on community service, was founded in Nashville, Tenn., in 1917. During that time, a record number of women were in the workforce during World War I, and there was a need for women’s civic organizations.

“The big emphasis is getting people together to find a need within the community and working to end that need,” club member Joanne Kemp said. “In the past, we’ve worked a lot to advance literacy in Hamilton County.”

The club has distributed books and library calendars with children’s

reading tips to families in Hamilton County.

The group meets on the second Monday of each month in different locations throughout Hamilton County. Of its 10 members, four have been with the group from the beginning.

To celebrate the club’s anniversary, it is conducting a dinner at 7 p.m. Dec. 9 at The Old Spaghetti Factory, 918 Range Line Rd., in Carmel. Guests are encouraged to bring a food item or cash to be donated to HVAF of Indiana, a veterans’ organization.

SWCD creates garden tower

By Renee Larr news@currentnoblesville.com Earlier this year, the Hamilton County Soil and Water Conservation District, 1717 FOOD INSECURITY Pleasant St., Noblesville, partnered with Be Well Family Care in Carmel to create a garden tower, which is a multi-level planter capable of growing up to 70 or more plants, within a minimal amount of space, with the ability to create its own compost.

“The basic idea is just to be able to grow a lot of food in a really small space and to do it with the minimum amount of resources, not only from a time perspective, but also from a resource perspective,” said Andrew Fritz, urban agriculture conservationist with the Hamilton County SWCD Participants in Carmel’s Kids Serving Carmel Camp, a program of the Kiwanis Club of Carmel, planted the garden tower during the spring.

Under construction

Ind. 37 utility relocation ongoing, major projects to begin in spring 2020

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com Although motorists are seeing utility relocation, drainage construction and detour construction, major Ind. 37 construction won’t COVER STORY begin until spring 2020 on the Fishers portion of the project.

Noblesville’s timeline still is undetermined.

Noblesville Communications Manager Robert Herrington said the city plans to let Fishers construct its portion first while Noblesville designs the northern portion, which is from 146th Street to Ind. 32/Ind. 38 and includes the Greenfield Avenue, Town and Country Boulevard, Pleasant Street and the Ind. 32/38 intersections. However, because the City of Fishers received $100 million from the Indiana Dept. of Transportation to build the southern portion, Herrington said the City of Noblesville must wait to see how much money it can receive from the state because it also is working on an east-west corridor on Pleasant Street.

“That is our main priority, Pleasant Street first,” Herrington said.

City of Fishers Director of Engineering Jason Taylor said motorists won’t see significant work done south of 146th Street during the winter months.

“We’ve recently awarded (bids for) the 126th interchange,” Taylor said. “We had a groundbreaking event there. Most of the work people are seeing today is prep work for maintenance of traffic for next year.

The majority of the work done this year is a temporary widening of State Road 37 to allow for four lanes to continue through (during construction).”

Construction is under way on 131st Street to widen it to two lanes each direction to manage detours when they begin.

Active drainage line projects for the southern and northern drainage lines also are under way.

“The purpose of these two drainage lines being constructed is because we are depressing State Road 37 and taking it under the cross streets, similar to Keystone (Parkway),” Taylor said.

TAKING DETOURS

Taylor said traffic detours won’t begin until spring 2020.

“Really, we won’t encourage anyone to change their routes until they have to, whenever we start constructing,” Taylor said. “We will be shifting traffic onto the east side of (Ind.) 37 so we can construct the west side, and in order to do that, we have to close down access from 126th to the west to 37. So, that traffic will be detoured elsewhere and signed appropriately by utilizing Allisonville (Road)

and 131st.”

The closure will begin in the spring, and drivers will be unable to access Ind. 37 from 126th Street from the west. The closure will facilitate construction of the first half of the roundabout interchange.

A similar closure for construction will occur on the east side. The 126th Street and Ind. 37 interchange is expected to be open by the end of the 2020 construction season.

Construction on the 146th Street interchange also will begin in the spring.

“146th Street is going to be (on) a two-year construction schedule because of the amount of traffic on 146th,” Taylor said. “We set that maintenance of traffic up to allow for east-west traffic to still flow.”

DIFFERENT INTERCHANGES

146th Street will be a single-point interchange similar to Allisonville Road and I-465, whereas 126th, 131st and 141st streets will be roundabout interchanges similar to Keystone Parkway. 135th Street will be a right-in, right-out intersection, meaning drivers heading southbound on Ind. 37 to access westbound 135th Street will have to travel to 131st Street, use the roundabout interchange and go north to make the turn.

If all goes as planned, the 126th Street interchange will open by the end of 2020; the 131st, 135th and 146th street interchanges will be open by the end of 2021; and the 141st Street interchange will open by the end of 2022.

PROJECT COST AND NOBLESVILLE’S INVOLVEMENT For the Fishers portion of the project, improving Ind. 37 from 126th Street to 146th Street, the City of Fishers contributed $12 million, Hamilton County contributed $12 million and the Indiana Dept. of Transportation contributed $100 million.

The Noblesville portion of the project, continuing the improvements north to Ind. 32/38, hasn’t been finalized. But when it is, Fishers will contribute an additional $4 million, the county will contribute an additional $4 million and Noblesville will contribute $16 million to make each entity’s contributions equal. The Indiana Dept. of Transportation hasn’t announced funding for the Noblesville phase.

In addition, the City of Fishers and Hamilton County each contributed $250,000 for marketing efforts to aid businesses during construction.

ESSAY

LETTER

Enlightened path

Increase salaries for teachers

Commentary by Terry Anker Early 20th-century U.S. Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes Jr. wrote, “But when men have realized that time has upset many fighting faiths, they may come to believe even more than they believe the very foundations of their own conduct that the ultimate good desired is better reached by free trade in ideas – that the best test of truth is the power of the thought to get itself accepted in the competition of the market, and that truth is the only ground upon which their wishes safely can be carried out.”

Holmes was responsible for a doctrine used by our nation’s high court to restrict First Amendment claims to free assembly, speech or press, known widely through one line of his opinion, “clear and present danger.” Later, an important lower court jurist, Learned Hand, supported the notion, adding that restrictions on these American freedoms could only come to prevent “imminent lawless action.”

It was a different time. Socialism, especially the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics and the National Socialist German Workers’ Party, i.e., the Nazis, was then known to be a verified threat to freedom.

Still, jurists were slow to restrict the exchange of ideas, even vastly unpopular ones. The minority voice had to be protected, if only so a debate could be preserved.

How often did the majority prove, in the long run, to be on the enlightened path? Is it any different now?

Hitting the Hamiltonian lottery Commentary by Danielle Wilson Friends, I won the lottery! Not that lottery. You think I’d still be writing this column if HUMOR I were a newly minted millionaire? Puh-lease.

Maybe I’d pen one final commentary at 36,000 feet aboard my new Gulf Stream en route to Davos, but that’d be it. So long, suckers!

No, I won two $10 tickets to “Hamilton” in Chicago! I know! I’ve seen the musical before but have been wanting to take my youngest daughter, Maddie. I thought we’d go to the touring one here in Indianapolis this month, but the tickets start at $175, and that’s for a weekday matinee with a “limited view,” i.e., “behind a giant pole.” Which makes absolutely no sense to me. It’s not the original cast, it’s not Broadway and it’s been out for almost five years. I just couldn’t stomach shelling out that much dough for a show, even one as fantastic as “Hamilton.”

Then, I discovered the lottery. I installed the “Hamilton” app, signed

up for email notifications and have literally been entering daily since 2017.

Chicago, Madison, Wis., Milwaukee, Louisville. If I could drive there in a reasonable amount of time, I threw my tricorne hat into the ring. Because that’s the thing. If you win, you’re given only four hours to accept the tickets for a next-day production.

Yowsers.

When a “Congratulations” popped up in my inbox, I nearly wet my pants.

After all this time, it was happening!

So, for 20 bucks, Maddie and I were able to see “Hamilton” in Chicago. Our seats weren’t perfect (we were under a substantial can-only-glimpse-feetif-they-sing-from-the-second-storyof-the-set overhang), but definitely worth it.

I can’t believe I won the lottery!

Peace out.

Editor, As a retired public school teacher from a neighboring state with grandchildren in Indiana public schools, it was good to see public school teachers stand up, not just for themselves, but also for their students.

After a decade of seeing Republican politicians neglect and disrespect and seeing teachers’ salaries fall behind inflation, it is long past time for bringing pay up to neighboring states. Even a poorer state like Kentucky pays teachers around $3,000 more than in the Hoosier state.

Teachers also deserve a better retirement system. Investment in education is the best investment for economic growth that a state can make, so we should be looking at using some of that $2 billion reserve fund to bring salaries up, build a better pension system and move to reduce class size.

Mike Boland, Fishers

PRIMEVAL BREWING CUTS RIBBON

Look for dividend-paying stocks — Dividend-paying stocks tend to hold up better than the overall market during volatile times and economic slowdowns. But many large-cap, blue-chip dividend payers such as McDonald’s and Procter & Gamble have already experienced big gains the past year, so they may not provide the downside protection you would expect. A better defensive strategy is to invest in dividend-paying medium-sized companies — those with stock market values between $2 billion and $10 billion. Their businesses are mature enough to pay reliable dividends but still have the ability to grow much faster than large companies. To find attractive dividend-paying. mid-cap stocks, look for companies with steady recurring revenues, little or no debt, leading market positions in their niches and strong enough cash flow to increase dividends at least 10 percent annually for the next five years.

En Pointe Indiana Studio young dancers chosen for Butler’s ‘Nutcracker’

By Sadie Hunter sadie@youarecurrent.com Three elementary-age dancers are performing at the collegiate level after landing PERFORMANCE roles in the upcoming presentation of Tchaikovsky’s “The Nutcracker” at Butler University.

Alyssa Corlew, Mary Elise Fuhrer and Anastasia Hobbs are ballerinas at En Pointe Indiana Studio in Noblesville. They auditioned for their parts in September and have been practicing ever since.

Dancing regularly five nights a week at En Pointe, they also had been rehearsing an additional two days — Thursday evenings and all day Saturdays – to prepare for “The Nutcracker.” They are now practicing every day as the show approaches.

Butler’s production is the longest running, fully staged show in the state. The performances are at 7:30 p.m. Dec. 5, 8 p.m. Dec. 6, 2 and 8 p.m. Dec. 7 and noon and 5 p.m. Dec. 8.

Corlew and Fuhrer are new to the show. Hobbs has performed in it the past two years.

“Of the three that auditioned from En Pointe, all three got in, which says a lot about this studio,” said Connie Hobbs, Anastasia’s mother.

“There were 85 kids that auditioned for this year’s ‘Nutcracker,’” said Stacey Corlew, Alyssa’s mother.

“They went in and auditioned as groups of 20, and it was selected right then if they were wanted for a second round, and then we found out in a few days.”

“Anyone can audition, and we encourage it,” said Robert Moore, co-artistic director and co-owner of En Pointe. “We want our dancers to experience as much as they can and

have a lot of opportunities. It really worked out that they could afford to do both.”

Each of the girls will play one of Mother Ginger’s Polichinelles during the show.

“It’s in the second act. They’re like little Russian dolls,” Moore said.

During that part of the show, the three girls and others near their age and size emerge from an oversized prop skirt worn by Mother Ginger.

“The cut-off is age 14 and 5-foottall,” Connie Hobbs said. “With Mother Ginger, they can’t be too tall because they can’t get under the skirt, and they can’t do too small, because they don’t have the technique, or the costumes won’t fit.”

Corlew, 11, is a Noblesville resident and fifth-grader at Hazel Dell Elementary. Fuhrer, 10, is a Noblesville resident and fourth-grader at Our Lady of Grace Catholic School.

Hobbs, 11, is from Fishers and is homeschooled.

Hobbs and Corlew said they have been dancing since age 3. Fuhrer started at age 5.

The girls’ mothers said participating in the Butler production has been a great opportunity.

“The older girls are right next to them rehearsing, and that’s very cool to see,” said Amanda Fuhrer, Mary Elise’s mother.

“It’s been fun being with the college students and professors and being part of that level of a production,” Stacey said. “Butler is really good about making the kids feel special and important.”

Tickets range from $22.50 to $58.

The show will be performed at Clowes Memorial Hall, 4602 Sunset Ave., Indianapolis. For more or for tickets, visit butlerartscenter.org/event/ tchaikovskys-nutcracker.

Arts Council presents concert editorial@youarecurrent.com The Fishers Arts Council and the Fishers Community Chorus will offer a free public celebration of the visual and performing arts at The Art Gallery at City Hall from 6 to 9 p.m. Dec. 13.

Moody lands cherished role

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Josie Moody got her plum role.

“I always wanted to be the Sugar Plum Fairy, so it’s a nice DANCE goal to meet,” Moody said.

The Noblesville resident will play the iconic role in Gregory Hancock Dance Theatre’s student production of “The Nutcracker,” set for 7 p.m. Dec. 6 and 3 and 7 p.m. Dec. 7 at the Pike Performing Arts Center. The production primarily features dancers of G2, the pre-professional company of GHDT, and students from The Academy of Gregory Hancock Dance Theatre.

Moody, a high school junior taking online classes, has been with the Academy for nine years.

“I haven’t done a lot of partnering before, so getting to work with the Prince is a good experience,” Moody said.

Cantus has a unique approach to creating music.

The Minneapolis-based MUSIC men’s vocal ensemble doesn’t have a music director, so the eight singers share responsibilities.

“We are the only full-time ensemble in the world, I believe, that is artist-led,” baritone David Geist said.

“Every show you see is an equal combination of all the work we put together. When we are programming shows, we bring the theme and the concept.

“Oftentimes, we’ll have a big whiteboard with 100 songs, and we narrow it down to 20 for a performance. We are very collaborative.”

Cantus will present “Three Tales of Christmas” at 8 p.m. Dec. 7 at the Palladium at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel.

In “Three Tales of Christmas,” the group combines familiar carols, new

Actors identify with roles

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com For Matt Bays, his role could be considered a slight bit of typecasting.

Bays relates to his MUSICAL character Buddy in “Elf The Musical.”

“He’s a happy-go-lucky person and so am I,” Bays said Bays plays Buddy in Civic Theatre’s production of “Elf The Musical,” which runs from Dec. 6 to Dec. 28 at The Tarkington at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel.

The story centers on a young orphan who accidentally climbs into Santa’s bag of gifts and is transported to the North Pole, where he is raised as an elf by Santa’s elves.

“I thought maybe I was too old for the part, but it worked out,” said Bays, a 49-year-old Westfield resident.

Bays said he was familiar with the 2003 movie starring Will Ferrell as Buddy but had never seen the 2010 Broadway musical, which was in-

spired by the movie.

The show is Bays’ second with Civic. He was in “Anything Goes” in 2018.

Bays did not do musical theater for 25 years because he was doing other music in church.

Noblesville resident Emily Schaab sees a bit of herself in her character of Jovie.

“I find the character true to who I am a little bit,” Schaab said. “She’s a little sarcastic and a little sassy. It’s been a lot of fun.”

Blueprint for Improvement: Northern Indy functional kitchen Commentary by Larry Greene

Before

THE SOLUTION

After

1. The exterior wall was removed and columns added to provide structural support and architectural interest between the kitchen and the new great room.

2. The kitchen was expanded into what was the dining room, giving the homeowners more room for maneuvering and a lot more storage.

3. An impressive granite backsplash makes quite a statement over the cooktop and continues to the counters.

4. New maple cabinetry with loads of pull-out shelves and organizers, plus a larger island, provide additional storage and organization.

THE CHALLENGE This 1972-built home is in Indianapolis’ Pickwick Commons neighborhood. The popular ‘70s split-level design didn’t give the family the space they craved for spending time together and hosting friends and family. They wanted to create a larger kitchen that opened into a brand new great room which would offer plenty of room for family activities.

Brief history of Australia’s famous Bondi Beach Commentary by Don Knebel Bondi Beach in Sydney, Australia, is one of the world’s most popular beaches. It is particularly popular with visitors from the Northern Hemisphere, who can celebrate Christmas at the TRAVEL beach.

Bondi Beach is 4 miles east of the CBD, Sydney’s Central Business District. The word “Bondi” (pronounced bondie) is derived from an Aboriginal word having the same meaning as “surf” in English. In the mid-19th century, the property that included the beach was part of the private “Bondi Estate.” For a time, the owners allowed the public to access the beach, which was famous for the size of its waves. When the owners threatened to block access to the beach, the Municipal Council made it public in 1882. By the 20th century, up to 60,000 people a day were coming to the beach. On Feb. 6, 1938, known as “Black Sunday,” five beachgoers were killed and more than 250 injured when a series of large waves pulled people into the water.

Bondi Beach has been the site of efforts to control decency in swimwear for both men and women.

In 1935, the local government passed an ordinance regulating the amount of skin that could be shown, leading to American actress Jean Parker being es-

corted off Bondi Beach in 1951 because her bikini was too revealing. The ordinance was repealed in 1961 and topless bathing became popular. On Sept. 26, 2007, 1,010 women wearing tiny bikinis assembled on Bondi Beach. The resulting photograph, published in Cosmopolitan in 2008, established the Guinness record for the largest swimsuit photoshoot.

Today, Bondi Beach attracts about 2.5 million visitors a year, many of whom take advantage of the fashionable cafes along the Campbell Parade

that adjoins the beach. Visitors to Bondi Beach can also watch rugby matches played on the beach by the Sydney Roosters.

Engfishing isn’t smart Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt “This is the type of arrant pedantry up with which I will not put.”

— Winston S. GRAMMAR GUY Churchill We have probably all written a version of this essay at some point in high school or college: You’ve read the assigned book (OK, “skimmed” is probably more accurate) and there’s a five-page essay due tomorrow. It’s time to “fill the space,” as they say in university circles. It’s time to make your words longer and more intelligent-sounding so you can squeak out a B-minus on this bad boy.

Somehow, we learn a certain form of writing an essay or paper that ends up resembling everyone else’s papers, or — even worse — an imitation of our professor’s speech patterns. The result is a flowery, academic-sounding, five-page whopper of a nothingburger. You swap out the word “use” for “utilize” or “employ.”

You go to great lengths to avoid ending a sentence with a preposition, forcing your words to twist and turn into stuffy syntax riddles. You’re verbose to the point of long-windedness.

There’s a term for this: Engfish.

It’s when we use contrived language for the sake of sounding smart. We STATE OF INDIANA COUNTY OF HAMILTON IN RE THE MARRIAGE OF: WARREN SIFRE, Petitioner/Husband, and SHERYL MINNICK, Respondent/Wife.

) ) SS: ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) )

use Engfish in our writing and in conversations.

In a 1946 article entitled “Politics and the English Language,” George Orwell suggested six rules for combatting our tendency to write in this way: 1. Never use a metaphor, simile or other figure of speech which you are used to seeing in print.

2. Never use a long word where a short one will do.

3. If it is possible to cut a word out, always cut it out.

4. Never use the passive where you can use the active.

5. Never use a foreign phrase, a scientific word or a jargon word if you can think of an everyday English equivalent.

6. Break any of these rules sooner than say anything outright barbarous.

I’m with Orwell on this one. I’m suggesting the best way to communicate is by putting your thesaurus away and saying what you mean to say.
