Wellbeing Coalition announces next steps, projects

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com After several months of collaboration, the Wellbeing Coalition of Westfield leaders have released the organizaPARTNERSHIP tion’s next steps in the community. The coalition was announced during the State of the City in January.

A joint effort between the Hamilton County Community Foundation, Westfield Washington Schools and the City of Westfield, the coalition’s mission is to improve well-being across many avenues of health – mental, physical, social, emotional and spiritual – by improving community-wide processes, resources and training opportunities.

The coalition identified six projects it plans to address this year and in 2020.

Projects include resource awareness, community voice, web of support, first responders, youth/family mental health and a sustainable business model.

Resource awareness Although there are resources available in the community to improve well-being, many people aren’t aware of them.

“We did a lot of work identifying programs and resources in the community for people around well-being,” said Vicki Duncan Gardner, the city’s communication director. “We are going to launch a website and have these items readily available for people to access.”

Community voice Kyle Miller, the coordinator for social and emotional learning at Westfield Washington Schools, said the project will focus on listening to community members and will work to gather residents’ input on different indicators of well-being.

“We will really be asking, ‘How are you doing?’ and listening to that,” Miller said.

Web of support The project addresses the importance of connections to overall health.

“The more connected you are, the higher your well-being. The more connected you are to other people, when that happens, your overall well-being does increase,” Miller said.

From left, Communications Director Vicki Duncan Gardner, Mayor Andy Cook, Kyle Miller, Tonya Harvey and Suzanne Clifford are members of the core planning committee for the Wellbeing Coalition of Westfield. (File photo)

First responders The project will kick off with several meetings this week.

The city communicated with the City of Fishers to learn more about what Fishers is doing with first responders and mental health issues.

“What are our gaps, how can we support the paramedicine program to do what it’s doing and even more?” Duncan Gardner said. “Maybe training them on grief counseling, crisis intervention training for the fire department.”

Youth/family mental health “We are looking at expanding partnerships within WWS to provide equitable access to mental health services within a school-based model, so any student will be able to access the level of care they might need in a schoolbased setting,” Miller said.

Sustainable business model Hamilton County Community Foundation board member Tonya Harvey is the project leader.

“This is basically creating a sustainable business plan for this organization because we know as society changes, we must change as well,” she said. “There is never an end to this because we are always going to be chasing well-being.”

The project will look for ways to leverage relationships with groups such as the Hamilton County Community Foundation. The project also will examine grant opportunities for local nonprofits.

DISPATCHES Westfield, Whitestown among fastest growing communities — Whitestown and Westfield have both ranked as the state’s fastest growing communities for the second year in a row, according to U.S. Census Bureau estimates analyzed by the Indiana Business Research Center. Both Whitestown and Westfield grew by approximately 5.2 percent in 2018. Other fast-growing communities include St. John, Avon and Plainfield.

Westfield resident earns award — Westfield resident Ryan O’Hara earned the Spirit of Community Award from the University of Dayton. The award recognizes an individual who displays leadership through their empowerment of others, their caring and concern, and their ability to create or enhance a welcoming, familial atmosphere.

Hughes named to dean’s list — Graham Hughes, of Westfield, was recently named to the Olivet Nazarene University dean’s list for the spring 2019 semester.

Jiffy Lube honored for murals – Americans for the Arts, a nonprofit dedicated to advancing the arts and arts education, announced that Jiffy Lube of Indiana will be honored this fall with the national Arts and Business Partnership Award. Jiffy Lube of Indiana’s mural initiative, “Every Part Matters,” has created original, artist-designed murals on the exterior walls of nine oil change locations in central Indiana. One of the murals is in Carmel and another is in Westfield.

Regional pedestrian and bikeways surveys now available —The Indianapolis Metropolitan Planning Organization is in the process of updating its regional bikeways and pedestrian plans for Central Indiana and is looking for engagement and feedback with two surveys regarding each plan. The bikeways plan survey can be accessed at regionalbikeplan.metroquest.com, and the pedestrian plan survey can be accessed at regionalpedplan.metroquest.com.

HowaldHeatingAndAir.com (4328)

Cops Cycling for Survivors recently announced the ride schedule for its annual bicycle tour of LAW ENFORCEMENT Indiana.

The group, whose aim is to raise awareness and actively support survivors of Indiana law enforcement officers killed in the line of duty, will bike nearly 1,000 miles in 13 days in July to honor fallen law enforcement officers and their survivors.

In 2002, Cops Cycling for Survivors began with a ride to Washington, D.C., to honor fallen officers. The cyclists now ride through Indiana meeting with survivors of officers to support them as they continue to deal with the loss of loved ones. The group honors the more than 400 Indiana officers killed in the line of duty by reading a memorial for each officer during the tour.

In addition to memorializing officers, Cops Cycling for Survivors raises financial support for survivors. Proceeds from the annual ride provide line-of-duty death benefits for primary survivors as well as fund scholarships, camps and other avenues of support for survivors. The group also as-

Cherish Center helps abuse victims Editor’s note: Current Publishing has begun a partnership with the Hamilton County Executive Directors Group to run a guest column each month to showcase the work being done by area nonprofit organizations.

Read more at youarecurrent.com.

Commentary by Wendy Gamble Cherish, also known as Advocates for Children and Families Inc., is a nationally accredited child advocacy NONPROFIT center and a local nonprofit. We have been helping children and families in Hamilton County since it was founded in 2009.

We exist to serve the needs of children who may have suffered sexual or physical abuse or neglect. When a child reports having been abused in some way, we at Cherish bring together our multi-disciplinary team, which includes representatives from the prosecutor’s office, law enforcement, Dept. of Child Services and a Prevail family advocate. The child then comes to Cherish, where we have forensically trained interviewers who elicit the child’s statement using research-supported, neutral, non-leading techniques. Our team strives to work together, in a caring way, to discover

truth and seek justice for kids. This is all done at no cost to any family or agency.

Before this concept was used, if a child disclosed having been abused, they might have had to tell their story several times, to several different agencies. This revictimized the child each time they had to repeat their story. Now, it can usually be done once, in a safe and supportive environment. Previously, after reporting abuse, families often felt they were alone, with no assistance in the healing process. Now, after the interview is finished, families are referred to any mental health or other support services that might be needed, including trauma therapy. We have been asked, “Who would provide this if Cherish wasn’t able to pay for these services?” The answer is that the county would be required to fund it, which costs more than $470,000 annually.

We keep the doors open through grant money and donations. Help us provide hope for Hamilton County children.

Wendy Gamble is the executive director of Cherish. She may be contacted at wendy@ cherishcac.org. Learn more about Cherish at cherishcac.org.

GIRL SCOUTS INSTALL ITTY BITTY LIBRARY

• Carmel FC, is a community based travel soccer club • Coaches are fully licensed and age group specific • Most affordable travel soccer experience in Central Indiana • Individual Player Development focus leads to a competitive travel experience

JoSheWe Girl Scout Troop 3476 recently installed an Itty Bitty Library at Shamrock Springs Elementary School, which was the only local elementary school that did not have an Itty Bitty Library donated by Girl Scouts. Troop 3476 found an old newspaper box, painted it “Star Wars”-themed “May Reading Be With You” and collected more than 600 kindergarten through fifth-grade-level books. They collected enough books to refill the other libraries in Westfield and leave additional books for the classrooms at SSES. The library is free to anyone in the community. Community members may take a book, donate a book or read one and bring it back. The girls earned the highest award possible as a Girl Scout Junior – The Bronze Award. From left, troop members Mylee Ellis, Erin Clemmons, Hannah Ruden, Leah Straw and Jaelyn Hoover pause near the Itty Bitty Library. (Submitted photo)

PAR FOR THE BUSINESS COURSE

Miniature golf to open this summer, restaurant to follow

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com Westfield residents Jessica and Kevin Lynch are only in their late 20s, but they already have their retirement plan in place. The plan is Birdies, a miniature COVER STORY golf and restaurant combination under construction northwest of Ind. 32 and Oak Ridge Road.

Kevin, who plays professionally for the Syracuse Crunch of the American Hockey League, saw it as the perfect business plan. Jessica, whose father Ted Gelov owns Heartland Food Products Group, grew up around business. The husband-and-wife team saw an opportunity for their venture in Westfield with Grand Park.

“It kind of fell into being the perfect business for me while I was playing hockey,” said Kevin, whose team is the primary development affiliate of the NHL’s Tampa Bay Lightning. “Both my wife and I are very motivated people and we like to stay busy and this is something I can have not only during my career, but something I can have when I retire and it can be ours.

“This piece on (Ind.) 32 was large enough to have something else, and we thought a restaurant would complement the miniature golf course as well.”

Jessica said her early exposure to the business world sparked her dream of one day owning a business.

“That’s why I always wanted to start my own business.

Our family is very entrepreneurial,” Jessica said. “(Westfield) is our home base, but we move away for every hockey season and never know where we are going to be, and we need to lay down some roots. After we had kids, we bought a house in Westfield, and we look forward to every summer when we can come home. We really wanted to develop a business that (Kevin) can still do while playing hockey.”

The hockey offseason is May through September, which is the ideal time for miniature golf enjoyment.

The Lynches plan to open the miniature golf course this summer, with the restaurant opening either this fall or spring 2020.

“I think, obviously, when we purchased our land, we knew there was a need for restaurants in the area. We are really catering to the teams and families of Grand Park,” Kevin said. “We feel like there’s a need for it, and we feel like what we are going to bring is exactly what not only Westfield needs but what Grand Park needs as well.”

With some teams having downtime between games that last longer than just a meal, Kevin said Birdies will be a way to fill that time.

“I grew up playing sports my entire life, and I was always in tournaments on the weekends, and in between sporting events, we want to go out to grab a bite to eat, but you might have more time than just sitting down to eat,” Kevin said. “So, kids can come play miniature golf and the parents can eat and have a drink.”

BIRDIES’ EXPECTED ATMOSPHERE Jessica and Kevin Lynch plan for Birdies to be casual, reasonably priced and have lots of TVs, along with a rooftop bar overlooking the miniature golf course for parents who want to keep an eye on their kids.

“It’s not a place you’re going to spend more than $15 on your meal,” Jessica said. “It’s really catered towards teams and families, and we feel like this is a good place.

There’s a lot of places that cater to adults with a fun and lively environment, but this really caters to families.”

“I’ve been around a team atmosphere, and so has my wife, and that’s how we want to run our restaurant,” Kevin said. “We want to cater toward teams and families or sports fans. Pretty much anybody who can have a good time, watch sports and play miniature golf.”

ESSAY

LETTER Stamp Out Hunger succeeds again

Willing learners Commentary by Terry Anker So much of our lives is determined by social order. We wake by alarm or with the rising sun from our pillowed beds to take hot, daily showers, with all sort and manner of soaps and creams. Then comes coffee. Perhaps we make our own.

Perhaps we meander to the local shop to enjoy the collective ritual of order, wait, enjoy. Regardless the methodology, we behave very nearly identically to most like us.

A few may prefer sleeping in a bit more or tea rather than coffee. But, for the greater part of the whole, we follow norms.

Certainly, we can conceive of varied global exceptions. Countless, unequipped with flowing water, skip the daily bathing ritual. Notwithstanding, much of what we wrongly believe to be common to all humans is only inure to our defined social group. Even at home, many, whose background rendered them unequipped with the variances of these rules, are left behind. A local volunteer at a teen homeless shelter reported that their employment training starts not with resumebuilding but with basic instruction on use of alarm clocks, deodorant and appropriate language.

Some years ago, our company operated a business with several warehouse employees. Many were young and uneducated but eager.

Among the skills developed were basic banking (our primary lender opened accounts for each and met individually, time-management; and the notion that a foreman giving direction and the employee complying for compensation is not the same as the disrespect of personal servitude. Assuming our demands for conformity are justified, if others are willing to learn, why, so often, are we unwilling to teach?

Blueprint for a bloodless summer Commentary by Danielle Wilson Doo and I are preparing to hold our annual family meeting to hammer out the details for a homicide-free summer. Our four children will, of course, be invited HUMOR to share their thoughts, but that’s more a formality than an actual request for input. We anticipate a major throwdown over Xbox. Our boys will undoubtedly argue that they should be able to waste weeks at a time sniping virtual zombies, while we feel it might lead to serial-killer status. Decision? Two hours, max, a day. Buck up, kids!

Also coming soon, the reinstatement of the “I’m Bored” jar, a repository for the monetary fines handed out to anyone muttering any derivative of the word “boring.”

Proceeds will go to an end-of-summer Dairy Queen bonanza, and to prevent a “Bud Light Jar” phenomenon, the perp will be assigned some degrading task, like scrubbing the basement toilet with her toothbrush. Don’t

mess with Mom! And once again, to further enhance this summer’s salt-mine experience, “Amish Day” will occur weekly. It was proposed unwittingly seven years ago by our then 10-year old son who, at the aforementioned decision to limit electronic interaction, cried, “I’m not going all Amish!” Should have kept your mouth shut, Andrew, for you will indeed go Amish. No video games, computers, television, or phones for one whole day.

We’re keeping our fingers crossed that our careful planning will result in a blissful summer vacation with minimum shanking.

If not, at least I’ll have some solid article material!

Peace out.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK “You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream.”

-C.S. Lewis

Editor, On behalf of NALC Branch 888, I would like to sincerely thank you for your donations of food and help in making the annual 2019 Stamp Out Hunger Food Drive another successful event this year.

A lot of people stepped up and helped in a lot of ways to make this major event a tremendous success.

I am sure they are all very much appreciative of our efforts at our local food pantries and churches. The generosity of our local communities is amazing, to say the least.

This drive replenishes local food pantries in our communities, and we should all take pride in helping the less fortunate.

The following is the amount of food in pounds that was collected and the beneficiaries: • Carmel: 21,020 pounds, Open Doors Food Pantry • Noblesville: 19,493, Hamilton County Harvest Food Bank • Fishers: 16,551, Delaware Township Trustee and Hamilton County Harvest Food Bank • Westfield: 7,172, Open Doors Food Pantry • Zionsville: 7,121, Zionsville Presbyterian Church Job well-done and thank you very much for your generosity!

Ronnie Roush, NALC Branch 888 president

READERS’ VIEWS

Girl Scouts a place for every girl Editor, I have become a regular supporter of Girl Scouts the past few years through the Give. Help. Repeat. program. There are two very different reasons behind my support — one related to education and one more personal.

STEM education is a crucial part of the future economy of Indiana and the U.S. As the past head of the Indiana statewide I-STEM Resource Network, I found Girl Scouts to be an early and active supporter of STEM education for girls. The strong emphasis on STEM education in Girl Scouts is impressive.

Girl Scouts has had a long history with STEM and is building on that history by ensuring that girls have access to STEM badges and curriculum at all program age levels.

Diverse curriculum exists at all program age levels with a goal to embrace and celebrate scientific discovery in their lives. From the many badges available to the quality of the lessons, Girl Scouts have access to great curriculum and learning experiences. Coupled with hands-on experi-

ences, these STEM learning opportunities can advance participation in STEM careers, or just help girls become more comfortable with STEM subjects.

No matter the interest, there are Girl Scout programming options available to foster that interest.

My personal story begins with a young acquaintance who expressed transgender needs. We were worried about acceptance in school, sports and activities such as Girl Scouting.

The local Girl Scout troop has been welcoming, accommodating and we couldn’t ask for a better environment.

The acceptance of individuals from the LGBTQ community into Girl Scouts speaks volumes about the leadership and values of Girl Scouting.

Being open to accepting individuals where they are in life’s journeys and supporting her dreams and aspirations is what makes Girl Scouting great. Learn more at girlsscoutsindiana.org.

Not a Wilson fan Editor, I rarely read Danielle Wilson’s column because her stories are so dumb most of the time. But I did read her column in the May 14th edition. Her negative remarks about her son coming home from college for the summer sure makes her sound like a warm, loving parent! Not! I hope her son or any kid coming home for the summer doesn’t read

this! I was always so happy when my kids came home. They have moved out of state and I don’t get to see them very often, although we talk regularly.

Climate change not partisan Editor, To be well-informed about what is happening to our climate, do not trust talk show hosts or letters to the editor.

Instead, seek out reputable sources with information from climate science experts gleaned from years and years of study.

Some examples include NASA, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration or the Purdue Climate Change Research Center. You will read that 18 of the 19 warmest years on record have occurred since 2001, that Arctic ice is melting at an average rate of 13 percent per decade and that carbon dioxide levels are at their highest in

800,000 years. You also will learn that carbon dioxide, unlike oxygen and nitrogen, is a greenhouse gas that traps heat energy.

You will find that there is scientific consensus about climate change and that this consensus has been growing since the 1970s. The Industrial Revolution brought us a higher standard of living, but also has pumped vast amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. Now is the time to figure out how to shift to carbon-neutral energy. It should not be a partisan issue, but one we work together to solve.

also benefited. Just what a guy needs when he’s tilling his 300 acres of corn: softened hands. Plus, after a session in the barn milking Elsie and shoveling manure, farmers found that their silky touch made their wives eager for romance. Dr. Hess was to become a very rich man. And a godfather several times over.

The Dr. Hess enterprise later developed a lip balm called the Udder Stick. Can you think of a product whose name better says, “Spread that on my kisser?”

The company Dr. Hess founded in 1898 has changed hands through the years.

Those hands were always soft and delicate, but a few of them got caught in the cookie jar, so now ownership is back in the family, with the founder’s great-granddaughter.

I’m working on a new toothpaste for guys and am thinking of calling it Pig Paste. What a refreshing way to start a morning! And, after all, isn’t that what men want?

Private Banker Kerry Ritzler Ad

You Deserve the PrioritY attention of a Private Banker.

I received an email today with the subject: WHAT WOMEN WANT. I’m a sucker for anything that might make me a better husband. According to the ad, they want Dr. Hess Udder Ointment, a concoction created more than 100 years ago that makes your hands smooth and feet callus-free. I thought being sensitive, considerate and romantic was the key. This is how little I knew about the opposite sex.

With a name like Udder Ointment, it should either be something you spread over that specific part of the bovine anatomy, or it should come from the cow’s udder. Vegetable oil comes from vegetables and baby oil is for babies. On the other hand, there’s Lucas Oil and Olive Oyl. I could make fun of both of those names, but I like my seats on the 40-yard line and I’d never antagonize a woman whose boyfriend has huge forearms.

Dr. Hess introduced his original product to farmers who lamented that their cows’ udders were extremely raw and chapped.

The farmers applied this emollient cream to the cows’ semi-privates. Soon, it was discovered that those doing the milking

Indiana reports record labor force growth — Indiana’s labor force grew again in April, extending a record streak of improvement over the past year to hit another new peak last month. The Indiana Dept. of Workforce Development recently reported that the state’s labor force now stands at 3,415,523. The measure is considered an important indicator of economic growth because it counts both those who have a job or are actively searching for one. The new peak for the state is preliminary and could be revised later. Year over year, 37,495 more Hoosiers have joined the labor force since April 2018. Also, Indiana’s labor force participation rate in April stood at 65.3 percent. The rate has now outperformed the national average (62.8 percent in April) for nearly five years (58 months). Indiana’s unemployment rate in April remained unchanged from the previous month, at 3.6 percent, and is even with the national rate, which dipped from 3.8 percent to 3.6 percent last month. Indiana’s jobless rate has decreased 7 percentage points since July 2009—the high point of unemployment in Indiana. That ranks Indiana 10th in the U.S. for biggest drop in state unemployment. Below is a breakdown of where Indiana ranks nationally in certain employment categories: • Second in manufacturing jobs added (116,500) since July 2009 • Fourth in manufacturing job growth (27.3 percent) since July 2009 • Eighth in construction job growth (6.9 percent) over the year • Eighth in private education and health services job growth (3.3 percent) over the year • The state is set to report May’s unemployment rate June 21.

Ageless instructor still en pointe

By Rick Morwick rick@youarecurrent.com Sue Van Voorhis took her first dancing lesson at age 5. She did so after becoming a Shirley Temple fan.

DANCE That was 75 years ago.

Today, she’s still light on her feet and is, after 20 years of teaching at the Academy of Dance Arts in Fishers, still a sought-after instructor.

“It comes from my soul,” said Van Voorhis, who celebrated her 80th birthday March 2. “(There’s) no other expression like it. It is beauty, joy, and it still is at 80 years old.”

A lifelong dancer and longtime instructor, Van Voorhis and a partner founded The Dance Academy in 1988 at 116th Street, across from the Municipal Building in Fishers. In 1999, she became the sole owner and changed the name to the Academy of Dance Arts.

Six years later, after outgrowing the 116th Street facility, Van Voorhis relocated the studio to its current location at 10080 E. 121st St., Suite 126, in Fishers. Her daughter and son-in-law, Laurie and Sean Brady, assumed ownership 11 years ago. But Van Voorhis, affectionately known as “Miss Sue,” has continued to teach at the academy and has served as director ever since.

She has no immediate plans to stop.

“It’s good for my soul,” said Van Voorhis, an Indianapolis resident. “Sharing my love and passion for dance with the young dancers keeps me feeling young.”

Van Voorhis, whose teaching career began in 1975 at The Dance Centre, still instructs four days a week at the Academy of Dance Arts, which offers classes in ballet, modern, jazz, hip-hop and lyrical.

She teaches pre-ballet, pointe, beginning ballet, elementary ballet and adult ballet.

Laurie Brady attributes the academy’s success and longevity to her mother’s personal touch.

“The nurturing and non-competitive environment at ADA is part of what makes it so special,” said Brady, a Noblesville resident. “Parents tell us all the time that their daughters and sons feel supported and loved by their teachers and peers, and that is because of the ‘one big family’

Posh Picnic set for June 15 editorial@youarecurrent.com The Posh Picnic is set from 7 to 11 p.m.

June 15 on the front lawn of Coxhall Mansion in Carmel. The mansion is at the corner of 116th Street and Towne Road.

foundation that Miss Sue created 30 years ago.

“With everyone supporting each other, we find our dancers love being at the studio together. Amid all the hard work in class, there is always laughter and joy in the air.”

An accomplished performer, Van Voorhis studied with renowned Ballet Russes member Jorg Fasting and has had leading roles in “Swan Lake” and “Cinderella,” among other classic ballets. She spent several summers in New York City studying ballet before moving to Indianapolis in 1962, eventually performing in a host of Footlite Musicals and Sheraton Dinner Theater productions, including “Sweet Charity,” “Anything Goes,” “Kismet” and “Annie Get Your Gun.” She also has danced with the Indianapolis Opera Company in “Carmen.”

Although she is retired from performing,

Van Voorhis — who battled polio at age 7 and practiced ballet as therapy — maintains a robust teaching schedule. She enjoys working with dancers of all ages and is passionate about what is a true family venture. Her granddaughters are Academy of Dance Arts veterans, and her other daughter, Julie Meyer of Jamestown, is the artistic director.

“But our dancers are also like family,” Van Voorhis said. “Many of our dancers graduate and go away to school and come back to the studio and take classes. I am teaching many of my old students’ daughters. Many of our dancers come back and continue to take classes as adults. They also bring their children.

“What a joy it is to see my old students come back and not only bring their children but join my adult class.”

Upland Carmel Tap House Add chicken to the Upland Nachos for $3. (Photo by Anna Skinner)

Commentary by Anna Skinner Address: 820 E. 116th St., Carmel What to get: Upland Nachos Price: $8.50 Anna’s take: Upland Carmel Tap House is one of my favorites because its food is exceptional, the atmosphere is relaxing and the beer is always good. My go-to item is the Upland Nachos, which layers cheddar-jack cheese, fresh jalapenos, diced tomatoes and black beans on top of blue corn tortilla chips. It’s served with a side of tomato-jalapeno salsa. I always add spicy

chicken for an additional $3. Diners also have the option to add Southwest tofu, pulled pork, spicy beef or seitan nuggets.

Guacamole or sour cream are available for an additional 75 cents.

Nachos are listed under the starters portion of the menu, but if you’re not sharing, one order is plenty for a full meal.

Suggested pairings: My beer of choice is the Upland Wheat, brewed with organic coriander and orange peel. It’s light and a bit tart.

Behind bars: Jammy Dodger Get it at Ukiyo, Broad Ripple Ingredients: 1 oz. Rekya Vodka, 1 oz. Winter Warrior Sake, .5 oz. blueberry, blackberry, raspberry jam, a squeeze of fresh lime juice, .5 oz. sweet vermouth, lemon swath Directions: Shake ingredients together with ice, strain into a glass and garnish with a lemon swath.

Blueprint for Improvement: A kitchen makeover on the Monon Commentary by Larry Greene

Before

Background: Built in 2008, this Carmel townhome is beautifully nestled on the Monon Trail.

THE CHALLENGE The homeowner recently purchased this townhome and wanted to remodel before moving in. The kitchen and dining room were separated by a wall with a passthrough opening. The goal was to remove the wall to open the space while not losing any functionality or space in the new design.

After

THE SOLUTION Removing the wall between the kitchen and dining room made the entire first floor appear dramatically more open and bright.

1. The existing cabinetry was in great condition; it was revitalized with new paint and hardware. The wine rack was custom-built to fit the cabinet opening.

2. The original kitchen had a triangular island; the new one features more seating and storage. The navy blue finish is fresh and stylish.

3. Gas lines were installed so the electric stovetop could be replaced with a gas range.

4. Other features include a quartz countertop, under-mount sink, pull-out trash/recycling bins and a beverage refrigerator.

To get started on your own remodeling project, visit us at caseindy.com or stop by one of our three locations.

Canatha: City of the Decapolis Commentary by Don Knebel Qanawat, previously called Canatha, was once the most important city in an area in southwest Syria known as Jabal al-Druze. Its remarkable ruins reflect TRAVEL the city’s importance to Romans and early Christians.

Canatha/Qanawat is on the western slope of a volcanic plateau halfway between Damascus and Amman, both among the world’s oldest continuously inhabited cities.

Canatha is probably the Biblical Kenath, captured for the Israelites by Nobah, a Manassite. In 63 B.C., Roman Gen. Pompey conquered the surrounding area and made Canatha, along with Damascus and Amman (Philadelphia), one of the cities of the Decapolis. These 10 autonomous cities took on the look of Rome, with column-lined streets, baths, temples and theaters. According to the Bible, many followers of Jesus came from the Decapolis, dominated at the time by Gentiles. By the fourth century, Canatha was the seat of a Christian bishop and a popular pilgrimage destination.

Bishop Theodosius of Canatha attended the Council of Chalcedon in 451 A.D., called to decide the nature of Jesus. When the Muslims conquered the area in the seventh century, Canatha began to decline and was largely abandoned by the 18th century.

Today, Qanawat has a population of approximately 8,000, most of the residents Druze, a minority religious group for whom the surrounding region was named. A 300-acre site surrounded by the city includes a number of partially re-

Exterior of El-Sarai in Qanawat, Syria. (Photo by Don Knebel)

constructed structures from the Roman and early Christian eras, including a Roman cistern, a theater, a nymphaeum and temples to local and Roman gods. The most famous ruin, called El-Sarai or Seraya, was built as a Roman temple in the second century and features an atrium with 18 columns and a colonnaded portico. The 70-foot-long building was converted to a Christian basilica in the fourth century.

Reflecting its importance to Christians, El-Serai includes a Greek-inscribed stone sarcophagus displaying a cross.

Public Notice (Des. No. 1700728) The City of Westfield is planning to undertake a road extension project, funded in part by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA).

The project is located in west central Hamilton County, on the north side of the City of Westfield between US 31 to the west, Grassy Branch Road to the east, 196th Street to the south, and State Road (SR) 38 to the north.

Under the preferred alternative, the proposed project would involve extending East Street North from 196th Street to SR 38 and installing a new intersection at SR 38. Grassy Branch Road will be realigned to intersect with the new section of East Street. It is anticipated that approximately 20.8 acres of permanent right-of-way (ROW) and 9.0 acres of temporary ROW will be required for the project. In addition, the project is anticipated to require the relocation of two dwellings.

Properties listed in or eligible for the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) located within the Area of Potential Effects (APE) include the Eli Stalker Farm, 19629 Grassy Branch Road. The proposed action impacts properties listed in or eligible for the NRHP. The Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT), on behalf of the FHWA, has issued a “No Adverse Effect” finding for the project because the project will not diminish the integrity of the characteristics that qualify the historic property within the APE for inclusion in the NRHP. In accordance with the National Historic Preservation Act, the views of the public are being sought regarding the effect of the proposed project on the historic elements as per 36 CFR 800.2(d), 800.3(e) and 800.6(a) (4). Pursuant to 36 CFR 800.4(d)(2), the documentation specified in 36 CFR 800.11(e) is available for inspection at Lochmueller Group, Inc. Additionally, this documentation can be viewed electronically by accessing INDOT’s Section 106 document posting website IN SCOPE at http://erms.indot.in.gov/Section106Documents. This documentation serves as the basis for the “No Adverse Effect” finding. The views of the public on this effect finding are being sought. Please reply with any comments to Hannah Blad, 3502 Woodview Trace, Suite 150, Indianapolis, IN 46268, 317-334-6826, hblad@lochgroup.com no later than July 4, 2019.

Well, it’s all well and good Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt According to G.K. Chesterton, “The word ‘good’ has many meanings. For example, if a man were to shoot GRAMMAR GUY his grandmother at a range of five hundred yards, I should call him a good shot, but not necessarily a good man.” First of all, I have to tip my cap to Chesterton’s excellent use of the subjunctive case when he uses “were” in the second sentence. Secondly, “well” and “good” are often misunderstood in our language.

“I know the difference between well and good,” your inner voice is probably yelling right now. Great — you get a gold star!

Let’s review, shall we? Good is an adjective while well is an adverb (most of the time).

We’ll get to the “most of the time” part in a second.

Here’s what you already know about good and well. Good is an adjective. It should always be used to describe or modify nouns. For example: Nate is a good sportswriter. Well is (almost) always an adverb. Use it to modify a verb, adverb or an adjective. For example: He writes about the

Chiefs well. He does his job well.

Now, it’s time to reconcile the confusing exceptions. Only use “well” as an adverb when using linking verbs (including be, look or feel) that describe the state of someone’s health. Monica wasn’t feeling well the time her hand got chopped off. Yesterday I was sick; today I am well. I don’t feel well because I drank some water from the dilapidated well. You get the idea.

If we use “well” to describe someone’s health, we use “good” to describe someone’s emotional state of being. LeBron felt good about his decision to take his talents to Miami. Byron didn’t feel good after he lied to his kids about Santa. In these cases, we’re using “good” as an adverb.

So, the next time someone asks you how you’re doing, you can say, “I’m doing good” or “I’m doing well.” Depending on how you choose to answer the question, it’s perfectly acceptable to say “well” or “good.”
