ZCS to conduct enrollment growth forums through March
By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com
Zionsville Community Schools is doing its part to educate the public about enrollment growth and the possibility of constructing a sixth elementary school by the start of EDUCATION the 2022-23 school year. Several forums will be conducted to address questions and concerns and provide an avenue for parents and community members to give input on the district’s plans. During the Feb. 1 ZCS Board of Trustees meeting, Supt. Scott Robison outlined the district’s need for new facilities to accommodate enrollment growth. The district is expected to grow by
more than 200 students each year for the next decade. ZCS elementary schools are burdened the most. The schools reduced their preschool programming this year to accommodate for the K-4 growth. ““We have had to modify rooms to make new classrooms and modified computer labs to add classroom groups,” Robison stated. Robison said the new elementary school would likely be built at the County Road 875 campus. He also said the high school needs additional space to handle growth and noted that other schools and the transportation center on Ford Road require modifications to serve more students.
ATTEND A FORUM All forums will be from 6:30 to 8 p.m. Free child care will be available for those who sign up in advance. • March 5: Stonegate Elementary School • March 14: Zionsville Middle School • March 18: Boone Meadow Elementary School • March 19: Pleasant View Elementary School • March 20: Zionsville West Middle SchoolMarch 26: Union Elementary School • March 27: Eagle Elementary School

Plans approved for car dealership Compiled by Sara Baldwin Schatz • sara@youarecurrent.com The Zionsville Plan Commission met Feb. 19 at Zionsville Town Hall, 1100 W. Oak St. Among items discussed were a car dealership and a new Hoosier Village entrance. What happened: The commission unanimously approved a development plan to construct an approximately 28,000-square-foot building at 10890 Bennett Pkwy. What it means: The plans are for a car dealership, Indy Wholesale Direct, on a 2-acre site in Zionsville’s Bennett Technology Park. The commission deemed the dealership consistent with the rest of the area, zoned for office research and technology. Representatives of the business and A rendering shows the proposed 28,000-square-foot Indy Wholesale developer agreed to keep Direct car dealership. (Submitted rendering) all vehicles indoors and described the business as a “low-key operation.” What happened: The commission unanimously approved a development plan by BHI Senior Living, owners of Hoosier Village Senior Living Community. The plan includes construction of a new entryway to the community on Zionsville Road and two new Hoosier Village amenities: a greenhouse and pet care center. What it means: Hoosier Village plans to improve its nearly 110-acre site with a new formal entry on Zionsville Road, a 600-squarefoot guardhouse, 700-square-foot greenhouse and 700-square-foot pet care station.
Build with the Leading Custom Home Builder We’ve developed a new line of homes, called the Key Series, that combines great design, exemplary building practices and top of the line materials with a surprisingly affordable price point. Visit our new model home to see what the Key Series has to offer.
Hoosier Village residents have reportedly asked for a greenhouse and pet care facility. The plan includes coordination of stormwater and sewers as well as management of additional traffic from the new entrance.
What happened: Plan commission members discussed updating Zionsville’s zoning ordinances, including revisions to fees and notice requirements. What it means: Zoning ordinance updates could include modifications to the requirements of subdivision announcement signage, releasing zoning restrictions in the Eagle Village area and reworking filing fees. Plan Commission President Wayne DeLong said the Board of Zoning Appeals filing fees would be under review. Town officials are considering shifting the burden of fil-
ing notice from the developers to the town, in an effort to provide more transparency and better notice. Some of the discussion stemmed from a previous Jan. 22 Plan Commission meeting, where John Tousley, a former president of Zionsville Village Residents Association, asked for more transparency from town officials, including clearer rules for giving notice of construction.

PulsePoint app could save lives By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com The Feb. 19 Zionsville Chamber of Commerce Business Breakfast featured Zionsville Fire Dept. EMS Chief Steve SAFETY Gilliam and Dr. Stephanie Gardner with St. Vincent. Gilliam and Gardner introduced the PulsePoint mobile app to the Zionsville business community. PulsePoint alerts CPR-trained bystanders when someone within a quarter-mile of their location is in cardiac arrest. The app launched in February 2015 in the San Diego area and has expanded to more than 3,000 communities nationwide with more than 1 million users. Gardner encouraged St. Vincent Ascension to sponsor the PulsePoint app in Boone County. She said she is unhappy about the low rate survival rate — 8 percent — for cardiac arrest patients. “When you look at those 8 percent of people that get to walk out of the hospital, what was the difference about their event compared to the 92 percent of people who didn’t get to do that?” Gardner said. “Looking at the research, survival was more likely among those (cardiac arrest events) which were witnessed by a bystander, witnessed by EMS, who received bystander CPR or who were in a shock-able rhythm.” Gilliam said CPR techniques have changed in recent years. EMS staff will perform CPR on-scene to restore a pulse instead of immediately transporting a patient to the hospital because CPR is more effective when not in a moving ambulance. “Chest compressions are really what are keeping people alive until we can get their heart started again. That’s what has to happen for these people,” Gilliam said. “The concept of PulsePoint is amazing because it allows someone closer than the fire department to possibly show up on the scene and

initiate the lifesaving chest compressions until we get there.” Chest compressions can keep the brain oxygenated until EMS arrives. When someone calls 911, dispatchers send out an immediate alert to PulsePoint users who are within a quarter-mile of the patient. App users get a ping to their phone showing a map, the location of the patient and the user’s location. They then can rush to the scene and perform CPR until EMS staff arrive. The reason immediate action is so important, Gardner said, is because the brain is so sensitive to lack of blood flow and lack of oxygen. Gardner said although dispatchers are trained to talk people on-scene how to begin CPR, and countless CPR classes are offered across the nation, only 33 percent of cardiac arrest victims receive bystander CPR. Many times, bystanders are afraid to begin CPR because of the fear of being held liable or uncertainty on how to perform the procedure, among other reasons. PulsePoint also notifies users of nearby AEDs and bleeding-control kits. PulsePoint is free for Apple and Android users. For more, visit pulsepoint.org.

Sisters hold free prom dress giveaway By Chris Bavender news@currentzionsville.com

Say the word ‘prom’ and visions of gorgeous dresses and cute couples hitting the dance floor probably come to SERVICE mind. But prom isn’t exactly cheap. The average dress price is $250, which is cost-prohibitive for some girls. That’s where Carla Mann and her sister, Lisa Cutshaw, can help. “Sadly, when I attended high school, if a family didn’t have enough money to afford all the things that go into the prom, they just couldn’t go,” said Mann, who is an administrative assistant in the Town of Whitestown’s Planning and Community Development Dept. “I’d thought about that many times in my adult life. I had been praying that God would lay a ministry upon my heart that I could do. I was in my car driving. It really just entered my mind very vividly. “I immediately called my sister and told her about it and asked her to be a partner with me. She was as excited as I was.” The sisters held their first free prom dress giveaways in 2018, giving away approximately 75 dresses at two events. The

All items are free and the events are open to anyone. “My goal would be that any young lady who has a need like this can have a place to come and look for a beautiful dress that makes them feel like a princess without the worry of paying for it,” Mann said. “You’re only young once, and I’ve thought of the prom as a rite of passage, one of those moments you can look back on and you won’t forget.” New or gently used prom dresses, shoes and accessories can be donated at: • Zionsville: Edward D Jones, 262 Ford Rd, Suite 100, Office of Lee Irwin • Carmel: Carmel Dental Group, 715 W.

Happiness in a Bunn Commentary by Ward Degler I like our Bunn coffee maker. Mostly because it’s fast. The water is already hot, and within three minutes PLAIN TALK you’ve got a steaming cup of fresh brew. We bought the Bunn when our sluggish dripolator stopped working. When it was new, the drip pot took 10 minutes to make coffee. As it aged, it got worse. By the time it finally gave up, we were spending upwards of a half-hour waiting for coffee. We did try another dripolator that had a timer. We filled it with water and coffee grounds when we went to bed and set the timer to kick in a few minutes before the alarm went off. What neither my wife nor I considered, however, is what dripolators do when they make coffee: They chug, wheeze, cough, sputter, whine and gag. Which meant snoozing till the alarm rang was impossible. Instant and silent gratification, that’s my motto, and when we heard about the Bunn, we were hooked. When I was a kid, we lived in a couple places that didn’t have electricity. Our coffee pot was a stovetop percolator – one of those aluminum jobs with a glass knob on the top. We also had a campfire version of the pot made of blue-and-white speckled metal. For some reason, Dad always dropped eggshells
into this pot. He said it settled the grounds. When Mom and Dad got married, they received a GE electric percolator as a wedding gift. Every morning at breakfast it would sit on the kitchen table and bubble and hiss until the coffee was done. It even had a dial on it to make stronger or weaker coffee. It must have died somewhere along the line, and Mom and Dad got the newest in coffee-maker technology – the Silex vacuum pot. It had a glass pot at the bottom and a glass globe on the top. You put water in the bottom and coffee grounds in the top. When you heated it on the stove, the water bubbled into the top and mixed with the coffee. When you turned the heat off, the bottom cooled and created a vacuum, which sucked the brewed coffee back down. Later, Mom and Dad switched to instant coffee. They only drank one cup a day, they said, and it would be a shame to waste a whole pot. I rarely count on machines to make me happy, but I make an exception for our Bunn coffee maker.

Female Bear Scouts reflect on their first year with Cub Scout Pack 105 By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com Nora Salewicz and Maggie Beauchamp grew up attending Cub Scout meetings at Union Elementary in COVER STORY Zionsville because their older brothers were involved in the Cub Scout Pack 105 program. Often, Salewicz and Beauchamp completed activities with the boys at the meetings. Now, they can receive credit for the activities as the first female members of Pack 105. Salewicz, 8, also participates in Girl Scouts. She’s a Brownie in Troop 987, but Maggie, 9, is no longer in Girl Scouts. The girls, both third-graders, said they prefer camping activities in the Cub Scouts to the activities they did in their Girl Scout troops. Both girls are Bear Scouts. “Because my brothers did it and it seemed really fun, I was always there to watch them do it, and I was like, ‘I really actually want to join in the fun,’ and they changed the rules so I could,” said Salewicz, adding that if she completes her Eagle Scout and Girl Scout Gold Award, she can display both of them in her bedroom. Salewicz and Beauchamp joined the Cub Scout pack in April 2018. With the recent rule changes to the Boy Scouts of America, girls at the Cub Scout level can be a member of the same pack as boy Cub Scouts, but they must have their own female-only den. BSA established a program Feb. 1 called Scouts BSA, which is designed for girls after the Cub Scout level. Those girls, typically in fifth grade or older, are required to be in their own troop separate from the boys. Maggie’s older brother Jake, a fifth-grader who bridged from Cub Scouts to Boy Scouts last month, welcomes the female Scouts. “I mean, they have as much of a right as we do to be in Scouts, and Cub Scouts particularly,” Jake said. “My sister joined because she thought Cub Scouts was better for her, and because our family was very involved – more involved in Cub Scouts than we were in her Girl Scouts. She came to every one of my meetings, and she sometimes even did activities with us, and now she’s a Scout and she has every right to be here as we do.” The Beauchamps’ mother, Rachel, is the den leader for the girls in Pack 105. She said

although her experience in Girl Scouts when she was younger was overwhelmingly positive, she became involved in Cub Scouts because of Jake’s involvement. “I was a Girl Scout, I was a Brownie, and I loved it. I had a great experience,” Rachel said. “Because of our busy family life, I can’t commit to doing Cub Scouts and Girl Scouts, so since Maggie had an older brother, Jake, who’s a Cub Scout, I was involved in Cub Scouts. Maggie came with me to every single one of the den meetings, and she
was at the pack meetings, and Nora was the same way. (Nora) is a Cub Master’s kid, so they were around, anyway. Scouting is really a family thing. It was just nice for (the girls) to actually get credit for the things they were doing.” Salewicz and Beauchamp have no problems or issues interacting with the boys. From their perspective, it’s just kids learning to be Cub Scouts in Pack 105. “The younger (boys), they’re cuckoo, but the older kids, they’re good. I like them,”
GIRLS INVOLVED AT THE OLDER LEVEL Although two Zionsville girls have been involved in Cub Scouts since last year, Feb. 5 marked the first meeting of the new Scouts BSA Girl Troop for girls ages 11 to 17 in Zionsville. Six girls registered with Scouts BSA. The girls settled on the unit designation
of Troop 219, which recognizes the Scouts BSA and the troop’s February 2019 inauguration. Troop 219 plans to meet Tuesday nights at St. Alphonsus Liguori Church. Michele McAndrews is the Scoutmaster. John Wiebke is the assistant Scoutmaster. For more, visit scouting.org/scoutsbsa.

ESSAY
LETTER A poem about potholes
Stay busy? Commentary by Terry Anker Busy, busy, busy are we. We scurry about like some echo of our prehistoric progenitors, knowing that only the most tenacious and hard-working will survive the harsh realities of a violent world. The early bird gets the worm, we are reminded. Good. Even in a time of such global abundance (the World Bank and others of that ilk report poverty rates at a fraction of those 100 years ago in spite of a stunning increase in population), we — well, most of us — are loath to sit around. Where conversations may have once centered on the speed we might see to retirement, now many are imagining a working lifestyle well into their 70s and beyond. “I’d like to work less” say some. Or, “I’d like more control over what I have to do.” But for many, the clarion call has become, “How many times a week can I really enjoy playing golf?” The point may be a good one. And aside from those of us who’ve suffered setback or circumstance, an extended existence of commerce or professional volunteerism may be on the docket. Growing life expectancies predict we are going to live longer, and more full and heathy lives, than any group of humans to previously populate this rock, Earth. But with this new longevity comes a handful of contemplations. Is our hanging on keeping someone else from the job? For us now, at least, unemployment rates in Indiana suggest there is plenty of room in the workforce for seniors. How do we hope to live? There are more options for active adults now than ever – with many providing if one spouse is ambulatory and the other not-so-much. What do we want? If we can stay busy, should we? Must we? Many of us seem to think so. Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC. You may email him at terry@youarecurrent.com.

Editor,
Chuck holes, potholes, Whatever they are, If you’re not very careful, They’ll swallow your car... Thousands of them, Or so I am told, If you travel on Keystone, Or Allisonville Road... I’m fearful of potholes, And each roundabout, If I hit one in them, I may never come out...
Have toddler, will travel Commentary by Danielle Wilson It’s been a long time since I’ve traveled with little ones. But I was reminded of what a true nightmare hauling toddlers HUMOR cross-country can be when my youngest sister visited our snow-birding parents in Tampa, Fla., and I thought those of you still in the trenches could probably use a good giggle. Enjoy! The day started badly, with our hero waking up late and arriving at the airport with less than an hour to spare. Not a huge deal if you’re by yourself, but a potential gameender with a rugrat in tow. To make matters worse, she’d mistakenly booked a single ticket, assuming her 2-year old would ride in her lap. The Southwest agent immediately informed her that because her son was older than 2, she would have to purchase an additional seat for $400 each way. Luckily, my sister works in marketing and was able to charm her way into a reasonably priced companion ticket. With precious minutes lost,
they made their way to security. My nephew has a medical condition, though, that requires a whole slew of equipment. Thus, a short visit with TSA agents was impossible. The next thing my sister heard was her name being paged over the speakers as her gate was closing. Imagine a strung-out mother sprinting through the terminal, dragging several heavy suitcases with one hand and pushing a janky-wheeled stroller with the other. No sweat for this supermom, and with the help of compassionate attendants who worked some festival-seating magic on a sold-out flight, she and my nephew actually enjoyed an uneventful trip to Florida. Hope you can’t relate! Peace out.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK “If you want something you never had, you have to do something you’ve never done. -Thomas Jefferson
To reach where I’m going, My only concern, And not be the man, Who never returns... I drive very careful, As I go on my way, So far I’ve returned, At the end of each day... Please join in with me, Write the ones in the know, And demand that they fix, Every chuck or pothole… George Cottrell, Fishers

Back pain is the second-biggest reason that people do not go to work in the morning. The first reason is not havHUMOR ing a job. Recently, I’ve been going to a chiropractor who uses the traditional approach practiced by the Mafia for generations: They rough me up, inflict pain and then take my money. It was time for a different approach. Irwin, my new physical therapist, instructed me to stand as I normally do when I talk to someone. He prefers to observe his subjects in their natural setting. This sounded like Jane Goodall justifying her first expense report. Suddenly, I became extremely self-conscious. My body has a number of extremities that pretty much fall into place when I’m chatting with someone. I don’t think about where to put my right leg or how to position each arm during a discussion. I just start yacking away, although I do try not to put my foot in my mouth. When I got into my normal posture, Irwin shook his head. “You lean too far to the left,” he said, which is exactly what WIBC said to me in
l995 when they fired me from my talk show. Then, Irwin put me on the massage table and rotated my head and neck to assess my range of motion. “I don’t think your spine has a good relationship with your legs,” he commented. If there had been any conversation between the two, I would have overheard it. To improve my posture, he suggested I walk with my arms at my sides, with the palms of both hands facing to the front, opened wide and turned skyward. I tried this while I was strolling downtown later that day. It felt odd, but I scored some loose change from sympathetic pedestrians. Irwin told me to imagine there was a string running through my spine that went through my head to the ceiling, and then when I walked, to also concentrate on putting pressure on my big toes. My next appointment is with a neurologist. Not for my spine, but because I walked head-first into a wall.

Six weeks of sailing set at ISC editorial@youarecurrent.com There’s something for sailors at any level at this year’s Indianapolis Sailing Club camps. Across six weeks, campers ages 8 to 17 can learn the ropes of sailing on Geist Reservoir. Children are grouped according to age and experience, and each sailor is placed in single- and double-handed boats for lots of on-the-water learning experience.

Staff from ISC will use the U.S. Sailing in-
structional system. Classes begin with land-based discussions and demonstrations followed by on-thewater instruction, where skills – like upwind sailing, downwind sailing, reaching and docking – are covered. Additional activities like swimming, weather awareness, knot tying and on/off water-related games are conducted throughout the day. As the classes progress, instructors may begin introduction to racing if campers show interest. Those interested can sign up for multiple camps, which are one-week long, running June 5-7, 10-14, 17-21, 24-28, July 8-12 and 1519. Each day the camp will last seven hours, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. To download registration forms or learn more, visit indianapolissailing.org/camps.

‘Cat in the Hat’ becomes annual affair for Civic cast, director By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Matthew Altman relishes his annual appearance in “The Cat in the Hat.” “I enjoy being with a hilarious PLAY group of actors who can put forth focus and fun into this production,” Altman said. This will be the sixth consecutive year Altman has appeared in Civic Theatre’s production of “The Cat in the Hat” at The Tarkington at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel. The fantasy tale follows a talking cat’s visit to the house of two bored children on a rainy afternoon. The production runs from Feb. 26 to March 7. “It gives new life and energy every time we do it,” Altman said. “Our director, Anne Beck, has trust in us to give our best and craziest performance, all while honoring Dr. Seuss.” Altman, a Carmel resident, performs as Kitten and Thing 2. “Playing to a children’s audience, they give more audible reactions, which give us terrific feedback,” Altman said. “(It) also helps maximize our energy on stage.” Altman has previously performed in “Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat” and “Hairspray.” “I’m very glad to be representing people of color on stage, along with my co-star Jonathan Studdard (Indianapolis resident who plays The Cat),” Altman said. “It’s very important to have children of color see people who look like them represented on a stage. I’m very grateful to Civic for the opportunities and freedom they allow all of us to have to perform.” Beck, a Fishers resident, said the cast varies year to year. “Last year, we had five new to the show,” Beck said. “This year, we only have one new actor to the show. We are thrilled this year to add well-known professional local actor John Vessels to our production.” Vessels, who plays the Fish, recently performed in “Ruthless! the Musical” for Actors Theatre of Indiana. Beck’s daughter, Nya, also appeared in “Ruthless!”

Beck has directed “The Cat in the Hat” all six years. “The show is fast-paced and super engaging and fun,” Beck said. “The actors, together with myself, can’t help but keep fun alive as we tell the story. It is always fun to create a little mischief, and each new cast member brings a new and differ-
ent energy to the group, so they learn to play in fresh ways.” Beck said she looks forward to the show each week. “Knowing how kids react and their audible giggles still tickles me six years later anticipating how this show affects them. They love it,” she said.

Commentary by Anna Skinner Address: 345 S. Bowers St., Whitestown What to get: Smoked Pork Green Chili Nachos Price: $14 Anna’s take: This was my first time visiting Moontown Brewing Company, and it lived up to my expectations. The brewery is super cool and the ambience is warm and inviting, unlike some breweries that seem stark and overly modern. I sampled several dishes, starting with the pickle platter ($7). It included a spicy pickled egg, pickled cauliflower and carrots and a pickled avocado, which I had never tried before. I love anything pickled. I then sampled the tossed Caesar salad ($10 for the half-size) with a dressing made in-house. Next, I

tried the Smoked Pork Green Chili Nachos, featuring cotija, sharp cheddar cheese, pickled onions, jalapenos, cilantro and sour cream atop vibrant blue tortilla chips. Next, I ordered the brisket sandwich ($14). This is something I think everyone should order at least once in their life. The brisket was melt-in-your-mouth tender and stacked high on a bun slathered with horseradish aioli and topped with shaved white onion. Get it with a side of mac and cheese. Suggesting pairings: I sampled several of Moontown’s brews, but my favorite was probably the Hippie Royalty IPA, a bold pale ale with what Moontown describes as “an aggressive citrus and resinous hop character, balanced by a slightly sweet caramel malt character.”
Behind bars: Renaissance Get it at Anthony’s Chophouse, Carmel Ingredients: 2 oz. Tito’s vodka, .75 oz. limoncello, .5 oz. Blanco vermouth, 1 oz. prosecco, lemon swath Directions: Combine vodka, limoncello and vermouth in a shake tin. Add ice and shake vigorously. Strain into a martini glass, top with prosecco and garnish with a lemon swath.

By Heather Lusk editorial@youarecurrent.com It’s all about stepping out of your comfort zone with “High School Musical Jr,” the stage adaptation of a Disney PLAY film about students Gabriella and Troy who break away from their cliques to follow their passions. First-time director Julianne Boyd will bring the show to Zionsville West Middle School with a company of 70 students March 8 and 9. The high-energy performance is filled with song and dance and a vibe that connects with youth. “They can relate to it,” said Boyd, ZWMS choral director who grew up with the movie series. “It helped me connect to musical theater.” Ben DeBaltzo, who plays Troy, understands his character’s struggle to choose between theater and basketball. “I love playing sports, but I’m also very involved in acting and drama,” he said. “It’s kind of the best of both worlds.” DeBaltzo and Jilyane Kistner, who plays Gabriella, appreciate portraying students as opposed to characters in previous shows when they were cast as adults.

“It’s a lot easier to put yourself into their position,” DeBaltzo said. Kistner agrees. “I’m interpreting (Gabriella) the way I would act,” Kistner said. “It feels good to get a modern standpoint. That also helps with our acting choices.” DeBaltzo, an eighth-grader, hopes he can leave his mark on drama club before he graduates. “I love the community we have here,” he said. “We’re all very welcoming.” The family friendly show at Zionsville West Middle School is set for 7 p.m. March 8 and 2 and 7 p.m. March 9. Tickets are $5 for students, $8 for adults and $25 per family. They are available in the school auditorium at Door 4.

Blueprint for Improvement: More room for entertaining in Fishers Commentary by Larry Greene
After
Before
Background: Located in Fishers’ Gray Eagle neighborhood, this home was built in 2001. The homeowners, who enjoy entertaining, were looking for an update to their floorplan to better welcome their guests.
THE CHALLENGE In order to create the open floorplan, our team had to remove a weight-bearing wall and replace it with a ceiling support beam. The family enjoys their swimming pool in the summer months, so durable, water-resistant flooring was a must.
THE SOLUTION With the removal of the wall between the kitchen and living area, we were able to give these homeowners the kitchen of their dreams! 1. New cabinetry takes full advantage of the 11-foot ceilings and accommodates the oversized refrigerator. Clever pullout shelves and organizers keep things accessible. 2. The stunning granite on the oversized island and countertops carries into the living room, where it’s installed around the fireplace. 3. Oiled hardwood flooring provides waterresistant durability for wet feet coming in from the pool and requires only annual maintenance. To get started on your own remodeling project, visit caseindy.com or visit us at one of our three locations in the metro area. Larry Greene is the owner of Case Design/Remodeling. You may email him at lgreene@ caseindy.com. To see more before-and-after pictures of this project, visit caseindy.com/blog.
