Westfield City councilors hosted their final Councilor Connection session May 30 at Shamrock Springs Elementary School. The series of informal events aimed to make councilors accessible to their constituents, answer questions and hear concerns. At the May 30 session were District 5 councilor Bob Horkay and at-large councilors Cindy Spoljaric and Jim Ake.

On May 25, Westfield Director of Public Works Jeremy Lollar was recognized by the American Public Works Association as the Leader of the Year.

Lollar was recognized at APWA’s annual golf outing at Eagle Creek. “We are thrilled for Jeremy that he has received this award,” Mayor Andy Cook stated in a press release. “His dedication to his job and to our residents is evident to anyone who works with him. We are very proud to have him on our team.” Lollar was nominated by his Public Works colleagues. Pictured: Cook, left, congratulates Lollar. (Submitted photo)

The Zionsville Police Dept. is without working K-9s as both dogs are battling injuries or health issues. public safety Jelka, a 2-year-old Belgian Malinois, is recovering from surgeries after being hit by a pickup truck May 15. She was playing with a ball with her handler, ZPD officer Josh Stutesman, when it deflected into the street near Stutesman’s Westfield home. She was struck by the truck and suffered a compound fracture in her left hind leg and a hole in her abdomen that pushed her organs forward, making it hard to breathe.

Jelka was rushed to MedVet Indianapolis for a two-hour surgery. On May 17, she had another emergency surgery after complications with a chest tube led to “very grave, dire circumstances,” according to ZPD Chief Robert Knox.

ZPD K-9 Jelka is recovering from surgeries after being struck by a pickup truck May 15. (Submitted photo)

In the days after the accident, ZPD officials indicated there was a good chance that Jelka might not ever be able to go back to work.

Now, her vets are saying that she should

be able to return to full duty in three to five months.

Eso, ZPD’s other K-9, also is having health problems and has been unable to work for the last couple of weeks. He’s been diagnosed with irritable bowel syndrome and is beginning to develop arthritis in his hips and back. His handler, Sgt. Brad Kiefer, hopes he can return to work soon.

The ZPD K9 program is and always has been funded through donations since it began in 2013. It became depleted soon after the accident as vet bills began rolling in.

Stutesman said the cost to treat Jelka could reach $15,000 or higher.

Steve Russo, a longtime supporter of the ZPD K-9, program launched a GoFundMe page to support Jelka, which reached its $6,000 fundraising goal in three days. He also planned fundraiser at Buffalo Wild Wings in Whitestown from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. June 14. The restaurant will donate 15 percent of sales when customers mention Jelka.

Plant sale urges conservation

By Christine Fernando news@currentinwestfield.com Amanda Smith has cherished childhood memories of chasing butterflies through her backyard and watching nature fireflies light up the sky.

Now the superintendent of natural resources and education at Cool Creek Park and Nature Center, Smith is worried future generations won’t have such experiences.

Her worries are rooted in plants.

“It’s all because we’re planting the wrong plants,” she said.

Smith said people usually regard plants native to Indiana as weeds and bring plants from other nations to fill their yards. Although these plants are pretty, they aren’t food sources for insects that need native plants. Replacing native plants with nonnative plants throws the ecosystem out of balance, she said.

“It’s a domino effect,” Smith said. “We lose our native plants. We lose our insects.

We lose the animals that feed on those insects, and it winds all the way up to the top of the food chain.”

But Cool Creek officials are working to

reverse loss of biodiversity by placing native plants in the hands of homeowners.

Since Mother’s Day weekend, they have been selling 10 species of native plants from their greenhouse at the park, 2000 E. 151st St., Carmel.

These species include golden alexander, milkweed, showy goldenrod, New England aster, white oak and spicebush.

“Property-owners need to understand that what we put in our yards impacts more than just our yards,” Smith said. “It impacts every living thing around us.”

Westfield Intermediate School fifthgrade teacher Audra Heilman was selected as the Edge accomplishment Guys Heating and Cooling May Teacher of the Month. Heilman was nominated by student Jackson Schleper. As a reward, Jackson received a pizza party courtesy of Papa John’s for his class, and Heilman received a $50 Visa gift card from Edge Guys, Current’s Teacher of the Month sponsor. Below is Jackson’s essay: My teacher is Miss Heilman, and she teaches in Westfield Intermediate School.

I think she is the best teacher. Here are some reasons why. First, she makes learning fun without goofing off one bit.

Second, whenever she teaches something she makes sure everyone understands the topic, and if they don’t she tries her absolute hardest to help them. Finally, whenever a student does something inappropriate, she gives the right punishment, not too harsh or too light. As you can see (my teacher) is obviously the best teacher, and there are a billion more reasons why. I hope you enjoyed this article.

Museum to host grand opening

By Noah Alatza news@currentinwestfield.com The Westfield Washington Historical Society & Museum is set to open a revitalized museum June 10. The previous wwhs location was on South Union Street. Westfield’s historic police and fire stations and town hall occupied the previous location as early as 1923.

“We were really hoping to save it, but it sounded like it was going to be gone. We wanted at the very least to save the front (of the building) where the original Westfield Town Hall sat,” WWHS President Steve Osborne said.

Work for the new museum began in late January after board members began cleaning out Christmas decorations. But the work did not stop there. Volunteers from Townsend Glass Co. in Westfield helped the WWHS move three large pieces of glass from the older location on Union Street to the new location in the back of Westfield’s City Hall at 130 Penn St. The Rotary Club also donated time to help move at least six loads of artifacts and other furniture.

Osborne’s sons, Scott and Doug, were instrumental in the process, helping to

move dozens of loads to the new site. The upgraded location will sit to the rear of City Hall with a back-entry staircase and handicap-accessible ramps.

The change in location also marks a change in hours for the museum. This will be the first year the museum’s hours coincide with Westfield’s City Market. The market runs every Saturday through August from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m.

The WWHS held a soft opening May 27. RSVP for the June 10 grand opening and learn more at facebook.com/ WestfieldHistory/.

Beatles expert to speak

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Aaron Krerowicz doesn’t travel “Across the Universe,” but he does go around North America to give presentations music about The Beatles.

“I had nine tours last year and have 10 tours this year,” said Krerowicz, who lectures at various stops on each tour.

Krerowicz, a Carmel resident, will present “The Beatles: Band of the Sixties” at 6:30 p.m. June 13 at Westfield Washington Public Library, 333 W Hoover St., Westfield.

The hour-long multimedia presentation will include audio clips and excerpts from band member interviews.

Krerowicz, 31, also has recently published two encyclopedias, one each on the structural and harmonic analysis of the legendary British group.

“These are encyclopedias of analysis to explore why this band’s music is so great,” he said.

In June 2015, Krerowicz quit his other musical pursuits to concentrate on writing books and giving presentations on The Beatles.

Westfield residents will once again have a chance to enjoy fireworks and other activities on Grand Park fields July 4 during the annual cover story Westfield Rocks the 4th event. Last year was the first time the patriotic celebration was held at Grand Park. Prior to that, it was at Asa Bales Park.

“This will be our eighth year of hosting Westfield Rocks the 4th,” Parks Director Melody Jones said. “I could not be prouder of the continued success we have every year. It has grown rapidly. We have such great volunteer and sponsorship support, which makes it all possible. Westfield is a wonderful and supportive community, and it makes me so happy to bring this event to the community each year to celebrate July 4th.”

“Grand Park has the green space, the parking (and) the traffic flow to host such a diverse and large event,” Mayor Andy Cook said. “The Parks and Recreation Dept. has been able to offer even more activities such as zip lines because we have the space to accommodate the equipment and the crowds. Westfield Rocks the 4th is such a spectacular event, and every year it just keeps getting better.”

New and returning events will be offered. For more, visit enjoywestfieldevents.com/wr4homepage.

Summer is murder

o b s e r v at i on

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Sinking costs Commentary by Terry Anker In for a penny, in for a pound is a cliché originally intended to point to the equivalency of punishment under early English rule. It held that failure to repay a penny would be as severe as that for the much larger English pound sterling.

Today, most use the expression to indicate that once someone has gone so far down an intended path, they must apply whatever resources, even if excessive, to see the task through to completion. The notion holds there is a point of no return.

In business, one might call this phenomenon a sunk cost. Once one has invested so much in a project or person, the incentive to see it through to completion can outweigh a prudent decision to review the circumstances dispassionately and walk away.

Yet occasionally, pushing just a bit more provides significant enhancement.

Universal Studios Orlando offers Fast Pass technology. In a nutshell, a ticket through the park becomes supercharged with private (much shorter) lines for accessing the attractions. At roughly double the ticket price, a purchaser can navigate the experience with many fewer line-hours-per-ride.

After one has spent thousands of dollars and much precious vacation time, sunk cost theory might persuade us that a few hundred more is a pittance to ensure that ours is a robust, full and memorable trip.

Still, sunk cost theory can lead to a sinking feeling. In us, the methodology creates a cavalier attitude toward spending. For purveyors, it can create complacency in innovation.

Touch-A-Truck to feature vehicles June 8 Commentary by Erin Murphy This event (Touch-A-Truck) is always a kid magnet. What little ones don’t want the opportunity to touch, honk horns, push buttons and climb into the driver’s seat of all kinds of trucks?

Touch-A-Truck will have a variety of transportation vehicles displayed for kids to explore. From fire trucks, school buses, John Deere tractors and even mail trucks, residents young and old can get behind the wheel.

Those who come early can get a free hard hat. The first 250 kids will have the opportunity to receive a hat and decorate

it at the on-site craft station.

The event is from 10 a.m. to noon June 8 at the Westfield High School parking lot, 18250 North Union St. For a look at what types of trucks will be on hand, visit westfieldwelcome.com/events for details.

If your kiddos like noise, trucks and our local heroes, then you can’t miss this event!

“What little ones don’t want the opportunity to touch, honk horns, push buttons and climb into the driver’s seat of all kinds of trucks?”

Doo and I recently held a family meeting to hammer out the details for a homicidefree summer. Our four children humor were invited to share their thoughts, and as expected, the biggest sticking point was over Xbox. Our boys argued that since it’s summer, they should be able to do whatever they want, including wasting weeks at a time sniping virtual zombies. We felt it might lead to serial killer status. Decision? Two hours max a day. Suck it up, kids!

Also in the plan, the reinstatement of the “I’m Bored Jar,” a repository for the dollar 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 five years ago by our then 10year 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.

They must use their imaginations and find old-fashioned forms of amusement. It may not work, but their discomfort should prove highly entertaining. Mwah-ha-ha!

So the chore chart is up and rockin’, and the Forced Family Game night schedule (“you will have fun!”) is in full swing. 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 column material!

Peace out.

Before our last vacation, I made an appointment with the orthopedist. My left knee was killing me, a probhumor lem that goes back to an old college football injury. I was drunk and fell out of the stands during homecoming.

I asked why my former doctor retired.

Apparently, he wanted to devote more time to skiing. Nice for him, but for the patients scheduled for surgery, this is really rubbing it in.

“Dick,” Dr. Estes said, “I hope your vacation is not going to be too strenuous, considering your knee.”

“My wife wants to go to Canada to go hiking.”

“Sounds a bit rocky.”

“Yes, the mountains are pretty rugged terrain.”

“No, I mean your marriage. What wife makes a husband endure that much pain?”

His nurse walked in with the big grin of someone who was going to stick a needle directly in your throbbing kneecap. I’d been through this before.

drill,” she said.

I told her “drill” is not the best word choice before administering a shot.

The cortisone helped, but most of the Banff trails were too rugged for me, so I waited in the car for my wife and son while they walked along the Hoodoos, waited while they hiked in Johnston Canyon and waited while they explored the Marsh Loop.

One of the trails had a sign that said: “Handicapped and stroller friendly.” I question the friendliness part. A guy in a wheelchair was griping at me to speed it up, and a toddler in a stroller was shaking his fist and crabbing at me to get over to the right so he could pass.

This week, I called the surgeon’s office and said I was ready for a new knee. “OK,” said Leslie, his assistant, “but the earliest Dr. Estes can fit you in is September. Will you be OK waiting?”

“Of course,” I said, “I’ve gotten really, really good at that.”

The healing power of stem cells

Dispatches Mental health partnership — On May 31, the Women’s Fund of Central Indiana, a special interest fund of Central Indiana Community Foundation, announced it has convened community partners to join the national Campaign to Change Direction on mental health. Nine cities, 46 college campuses, plus hospitals, health departments, chambers, foundations and businesses have pledged to advocate for open, honest conversation about mental health in central Indiana. According to Mental Health America, in Indiana 20 percent of Hoosier adults live with mental illness and 12 percent of youth have had at least one depressive episode in the past year. And in 2015, more Hoosiers died by suicide than by car accidents. For more, visit currentinwestfield.com.

Commentary by Dmitry M. Arbuck, MD We are at a truly revolutionary time in health and medicine. The introduction of stem cell technology represcience sents innovation on the same level as the development of antibiotics or the invention of modern imaging (MRIs, etc.). Stem cells are already changing the way medicine is delivered, increasing lifespans and saving countless lives.

Scientists and researchers have been studying the benefits of stem cells for more than 30 years. They have found that these special cells provide great benefits all over the body, from muscles and joints to chronic diseases, to growing new teeth. You may have read about athletes treated with stem cells to speed healing after an injury or about burn victims who use stem cell therapy to minimize scarring.

Stem cells used to be associated with embryos, but this is no longer the case. Today, live cells for treatment are either adult stem cells or umbilical cord blood stem cells.

Adult stem cells are most likely extracted from tissue, like bone marrow or fat, which can be a painful and invasive process. Additionally, as we age, so do our stem cells,

which become less potent and productive over time. Like every other tissue in our bodies, they are exposed to the toxins, radiation and other pollutants in the environment.

Umbilical cord blood stem cells are collected from the donated cord blood and placenta of healthy newborns. The cells are then screened for disease and genetic problems.

These umbilical stem cells are vibrant, vital and healthy.

When umbilical cord stem cells are infused, they carry a whole host of immune stabilizing factors throughout the body and work to repair the immune system. This is likely why stem cells are so helpful in the treatment of autoimmune diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn’s disease, dermatitis and myasthenia gravis. Other things that may be successfully treated with this therapy include MS, lupus, graft vs. host disease and other immune conditions.

The future is today. For more, visit StemCellsIndy.com.

NewPro Containers moves to Westfield

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com For Jeremy Dearringer, moving his company from Zionsville to Westfield just made financial sense.

“We were motivated to move to Westfield growth because of the property tax incentives,” Dearringer said. “We got a phased 10-year property tax abatement. So (officials) motivated us to move our project to Westfield by giving the majority of our property taxes off the first year.”

NewPro Containers, which will move to 16460 Southpark Dr., Westfield, is a manufacturer and importer and wholesale Dearringer distributer of indoor and outdoor plant containers. Dearringer said they sell mostly to interior and exterior landscaping companies.

Dearringer’s father, George, started the company in 1989.

Dearringer, a 2000 Zionsville Community High School graduate and Westfield resident, purchased the business from his father in 2015. The company started in Zionsville, moved to Whitestown and returned to Zionsville in 1998.

The new facility is approximately 50,000 square feet.

That compares to the 19,000 square feet in Zionsville along with a 24,000-square feet facility the company leases in Indianapolis.

“Having everyone work under one roof will be really cool,” Dearringer said.

A ground breaking at the new site is planned in July and

Dispatches

completion is expected by January 2018.

Dearringer said there will be a lot of windows to bring natural light into the workspace.

“We’ve been experiencing quite a bit of growth in the last couple of years,” Dearringer said.

Revenue at this juncture is up 50 percent from last year.

Revenue was up 20 percent in 2016 from the previous year.

He said projected revenue for 2017 is $5 million.

Dearringer credited his marketing background for the growth.

“We put some new life in the business from some marketing efforts and we’ve aggressively expanded the product lines,” Dearringer said. “While my father was working toward retirement, now that I’ve taken over the business we’ve been moving to expand in the marketplace and investing more in marketing for the future.”

The company has 16 employees and expects to hire more.

Dearringer worked for NewPro off and on as a teenager.

He returned to the business for two years after graduating from Purdue in 2003 with a degree in organization leadership.

“I came back to the business when I graduated from Purdue for a couple of years,” Dearringer said.

Then Dearringer was a co-founder of Slingshot SEO, a marketing agency, in Indianapolis with two fellow ZCHS graduates.

Dearringer’s wife, Melanie, a Purdue graduate, also works for NewPro. They have a son, Gunnar, who turns 6 years old June 19.

Real estate update — It’s still a seller’s market in central Indiana, as indicated by F.C. Tucker Company’s monthly real estate market stats. Of the 3,302 homes sold in central Indiana in April 2017, nearly 19 percent were in Hamilton County. The average home price in the county was $293,400, up 7.2 percent compared to April 2016. In Westfield, the average home price was $332,867, a staggering 18 percent higher than April 2016. Of the pended home sales last month in Westfield, the majority sold were in the $200,000 to $299,999 price range.

Women’s business seminar — Indiana Small Business Owner’s Network will host Activate Your Inner Wonder Woman from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m. June 14 at Northside Knights of Columbus, 2100 E. 71st St. Cost is $59 and includes morning and afternoon roundtable discussions with special guest experts and a special lunch presentation.

For Abbie Lessaris, Gregory Hancock Dance Theatre’s “A Night in India” presents some challenges. dance “It’s a very challenging performance, stamina-wise,” Lessaris said. “We have a lot of different sections as opposed to some of our shows that are a full-length story. When it’s a full-length story, it’s created to have different ups and downs within the story.

When we do several pieces of several different shows, we pick all the high-energy, high-stamina, exciting sections. Since we are doing several different pieces, it means quadruple times the costumes. Every time we go off stage, we have to make a costume change.”

“A Night in India” will be presented at 7 p.m. June 9 and 10 at The Tarkington at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel.

The show features two guest dancers from India. Hancock said the show features some pieces from previous productions and some new pieces as well.

Hancock has been traveling to India for several years, choreographing and teaching.

“There is a large Indian community in Carmel, and when we’ve done Indian works before we usually draw a large Indian crowd,” Hancock said. “The whole concert is designed for Western and Eastern audiences, so it will be appealing to everybody. It’s colorful and exotic.”

Academy faculty member Christine Thacker said like most of Hancock’s shows, it is athletically demanding for the dancers.

“There are a lot of steps packed into a short period of time for all of the pieces,

and then we add costuming,” Thacker said.

“It starts to alter the movement quality.

There are a lot of bangles, a lot of jewels and scarves. The dresses are heavy.

They’re not designed for dancers, so they have to get used to the weight of the skirt and stay on top of the music.”

Thacker said it includes a duet from “Lagaan,” one of the first Indian-inspired pieces he has done.

“That goes back many years (2001) when we first did that piece,” Thacker said. “What we discovered when we first presented that and continued to present it is that we had a lot of exuberant support from our audiences. They enjoyed the music, the costuming and the movement.”

SPRINGS: a heavy gauge steel spring system provide the base for a wonderfully comfortable and long-lasting seat and should be placed 4”-5” apart to withstand the wear and tear that comes from everyday use. What type of spring system does your sofa have?

CUSHIONS: cushion cores should be made with eco-friendly, high-resiliency foam and wrapped with a polyester fiber wrap for surface softness and shape. Down feather jackets are also available. Ask your designer how long is the cushion warranty?

FRAMES: constructed of furniture grade laminates and solid kiln-dried hardwoods must be built to last.

Mortise and tenon, double dowel and corner block construction should be added to provide solid long lasting joints. Ask your retailer does the frame have a lifetime warranty? How are the corners built?

So you’re ready to buy. Look for a store with degreed designers, free interior designer service and clear pricing. Be leary of retailers that offer 50% to 70% sales, you will often be over paying. Look for a retailer that is looking to help you get the right sofa at the best price every day.

“Over spring break, I took my lines and learned them,” said Miller, a member of Ambassadors, the CHS mixed show choir. “I’ve been working on my blocking (positioning on stage for effect), too.”

Miller said she is deciding between elementary education and musical theater as her major when she goes to college.

Linnea Leatherman is the director.

Mixtape

Sophie Miller enjoys the spunkiness she gets to portray in “Tarzan.”

Miller, who will be a senior theater at Carmel High School in August, is playing Jane in Christian Youth Theater’s musical production of “Tarzan” June 9 through 11 at Westfield High School.

“I love all the characters in Disney and Disney in general, but I love the character because she loves the animals, and I kind of relate to her, in a way,” Miller said. “She sees differences and accepts them. The (female) characters in older Disney (movies) were more prim and proper. Jane is more of a go-getter. She is an adventurous girl, and she’s not necessarily afraid of going something against the norm.”

Miller began listening to the soundtrack when she heard CYT was presenting “Tarzan.”

“I fell in love with the score, and it was really cool,” Miller said.

This is Miller’s first lead role with CYT. She performed in a CYT production in fifth grade, in the musical “Seussical.”

“I stopped for awhile to do some musical theater in middle school and high school,” she said. “I wanted to try to do a summer show and get back involved in CYT because it’s a great program.”

In the summer of 2016, Miller served as a CYT camp counselor and will return in that position this summer.

Blueprint for Improvement: Wall removal expands kitchen Commentary by Larry Greene

After solutions: The goal was to design a visually expanded pulland-replace kitchen by opening up the wall to the adjacent spaces and replacing the dated materials.

1. The main solution for opening up the kitchen to the dining room was to remove the nonstructural wall that separated the two spaces. This allowed for a bar-height seating wall in the design.

2. All of the materials were replaced, which included raising and staggering the heights of the wall cabinets, upgrading to granite countertops and adding a second bar-height wall on the living room side to accommodate more cabinetry.

3. Additional touches of detail include a trash pull-out cabinet accessory, a deep doublebowl stainless steel sink, a new kitchen faucet with a pull-out sprayer, an improved lighting plan and an elegant, elongated subway tile backsplash.

Before Background Info: These owners needed a design/build solution for their home in the Spring Arbor neighborhood of Carmel to update and visually expand their kitchen.

After

Before problems: The existing kitchen footprint was closed off to the adjacent spaces, and the cabinets and other materials were very worn. There also was an unused desk area taking up valuable space. In addition, the owners are both quite tall, so they wanted to take advantage of taller cabinetry to add storage to their kitchen.

Gabriel Barkay (right) in Jerusalem’s Cave 25. (Photo by Don Knebel)

Cave 25 and the oldest verses Commentary by Don Knebel A tomb in Jerusalem provides evidence of ancient Jewish burial practices. It also provided what is thought to travel be the oldest example of text found in the Bible.

In 1979, Gabriel Barkay, an Israeli archaeologist, had a hunch that residents of Jerusalem might have buried their dead in caves in an area called Ketef Hinnom, located southwest of the Old City near the Scottish Church of St. Andrew. His hunch paid off, and he uncovered a tomb complex he dated to the seventh century B.C. One tomb included a stone bench, once inside a cave, containing headrests for six bodies. Under the bench Barkay found a chamber, carved in the rock, where bones and grave gifts were deposited after the body had lain on the bench for 12 months. When Barkay looked inside the chamber, he concluded that its contents had been looted long ago. But to keep an annoying 13-year old volunteer on the site occupied, Barkay sent him into the chamber with a hammer. The

young volunteer discovered what turned out to be more than two feet of accumulated bones and more than 1,000 items.

One of the items in what became known as Cave 25 was a tightly rolled sheet of nearly pure silver. When eventually unrolled, the sheet, about 4-inches long by 1-inch wide, was found to be inscribed with ancient Hebrew script spelling out the so-called “Priestly Benediction” recited in Numbers 6:24-26. Another smaller rolled silver sheet contained the same text. Experts have confirmed that these writings were made before 587 B.C., when Jerusalem was conquered by the Babylonians, making them at least 400 years older than the Dead Sea Scrolls, the second-oldest examples of Biblical writings. The silver scrolls, thought to have been used as amulets, are now in Jerusalem’s Israel Museum.
