Golf course anchors US 421 plan

By Ann Marie Shambaugh AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com The Zionsville Plan Commission will consider a request to rezone nearly 600 acres on the west side of Michigan Road TOWN NEWS north of Willow Road for a planned unit development anchored by a new golf course.

Westfield-based Henke Development is requesting the rezone to develop Holliday Farms, which is proposed to include various home sizes and styles, apartments, retail, restaurants, nature parks and a clubhouse, much of it east of an 18-hole golf course designed by Pete and Alice Dye of Carmel. It is proposed to include pathways that connect to Turkey Foot Trail for access to the downtown Village area.

“The incorporation of woods at the future main entrance from Michigan Road at the boulevard entrance will be a natural gateway to a high-end golf course community, office, retail, living and everyday amenities carefully laid out to preserve historic sites and complement existing surrounding units,” states documents filed by Henke Development with the Town of Zionsville. “It seems like a world away, but it has been here, in Zionsville, all along.”

The PUD is broken into five sections or “blocks,” according to documents filed with the town: • The Residential and Lifestyle Block includes the golf course, clubhouse and a wide variety of custom home and lot sizes, from large secluded single-family estate lots to garden homes.

• The South Mixed-Use Block at Michigan and Willow roads will be designated for neighborhood commercial and retail uses in one- and two-story buildings and allow for vehicle and pedestrian traffic.

Little League requests rezone Roa d

C.R. 550 S

Little League International will ask for a zoning change at the April 16 Zionsville Plan Commission meeting for its BASEBALL proposed site for its new Central Region Headquarters. The request is to rezone 15 acres at the southwest corner of Whitestown Road and S 875 E from residential to special use. The site is just south of the Zionsville Community High School baseball and softball complex.

“The zoning change is required for the project to be completed, because the current zoning status does not allow for recreational/sporting activities. The special use classification will,” said Kevin Fountain, director of media relations for Little League International. “Therefore, the change is being requested in order to move forward with the project.”

If the change is approved, the project is expected to continue on schedule.

“If the change is not approved, the project will be delayed, possibly causing opening of the facility to be deferred,” Fountain said. “Little League International will be monitoring the process closely to assess

Zionsville was selected last November as the new home of the Central Region Headquarters after a 14-month selection process.

In its announcement, Little League International said Zionsville offered “adequate facilities, strong infrastructure and a supporting community that appreciates and understands the ideals of Little League.”

The Central Region hosts baseball and softball regional championship tournaments leading up to the Little League World Series as well as other Little League-related activities. The proposed facility will include five new fields and feature a 2,500-seat stadium.

Neighbors appeal mosque ruling

By Adam Aasen • adam@youarecurrent.com On Feb. 26, Carmel’s Board of Zoning Appeals approved a proposal for an Islamic Life Center at 141st DEVELOPMENT Street and Shelborne Road near the city’s border with Zionsville. Many celebrated that it would create the first mosque in Carmel city limits, but some neighbors expressed concerns about traffic, noise and more.

Now, five neighbors have hired Zionsville attorney Michael Andreoli to represent them and ask for a judicial review of the BZA’s approval of the special use application.

“Obviously, they didn’t agree with the BZA decision, and that’s why they are appealing,” Andreoli said.

The plaintiffs include David Bidgood, Sheila M. Graves, Salvatore Pappalardo, David J. Reeves and Angelo R. Stanco.

A pretrial conference hearing has been scheduled for Hamilton County Superior Court Judge Steve Nation’s court April 25.

The Al Salam Foundation, which is planning to build the mosque, sent out a letter this week stating, “This is not a surprise nor an unexpected development. This has been a possible outcome following the BZA decision.”

The Al Salam Foundation does have legal counsel available in case any action is needed. Ashhar Madni, a board member for the foundation, said it’s too early to comment but the foundation will inform the public when more information is available.

Zionsville Meadows combines independent, assisted living

By Chris Bavender news@currentzionsville.com

A new initiative to allow Zionsville Meadows residents to remain as independent as possible — without having SENIORS to cook and clean — was unveiled in February. The Cornerstone Initiative combines independent living with the amenities of assisted living.

“We noticed a trend of potential residents asking about independent living but expressing interest in having the social aspect of our assisted living,” said Nick Halstead, Zionsville Meadows general manager.

“They wanted the comfort of having nurses on staff 24/7 in case the need would arise, and they didn’t want to have to worry about cooking or cleaning.”

The Cornerstone all-inclusive living option is for seniors who want the comfort of knowing someone is near and the freedom from daily chores.

“This allows our Cornerstone Living residents to save money each month and allows them to stretch their funds a little

further,” Halstead said. “Aging in place is the new thing, and planning ahead is key.

Saving money, not worrying about everyday stressors and increased socialization is what Cornerstone Living is all about. The goal is to lead to a healthier you.”

Residents can enjoy everything from a hair salon on the premises to a workout in the gym, catching a movie at the indoor theater to a meal with friends in Zionsville Meadows’ restaurant. Transportation also is available to take residents to events around town.

So far, two of the 28 assisted living residents have taken advantage of the Cornerstone Initiative, Halstead said. Zionsville Meadows is home to 186 residents.

Response has been positive.

“The family response has been great, and they appreciate that we are looking at different measures to give their loved ones a new outlook on assisted living communities,” Halstead said. “The residents are generally happy because they are saving money each month and capitalizing on all the assisted living amenities we have to offer.”

No matter how early I get up, the morning newspaper is waiting for me on the driveway. Even before sunrise.

That used to be my PLAIN TALK job — getting the newspaper delivered before people got up. That was back in the dark ages of my youth, of course, when my body didn’t object so much to predawn exposure.

Today’s paper boy drives a car, and I’m sure he gets paid more than the $8 a week I got for seven days delivery service. I delivered my papers on a bicycle.

Monday through Sunday, I got up at 5 a.m., jumped in my clothes, raced through breakfast so I could get to the paper office by six. There were usually 15 of us waiting in line to get our papers every morning. We rolled each paper tightly and tied them with string in one of the scariest machines I’ve ever seen. Whatever you stuck into it, the machine would snug up with string tied in a knot. Once or twice a week one of us would carelessly get our fingers tied to the newspaper and have to get cut free. The impression of the string lasted all day.

Most of us rode bikes, although a couple

of guys had motor scooters. We were envious, of course, except when it was snowy or the streets were glazed with ice. Scooters were definitely more dangerous on winter streets.

Bikes weren’t safe, either, but at least we could get off and push them on the hills. I did lose it one snow-blown Sunday in January. I didn’t see the ice at the top of the hill, and the next thing I knew my bike was at the bottom, my newspapers were strewn over most of a city block and I was nursing a skinned knee halfway in between.

I delivered papers for a full year. I got fired when the kid I hired to cover my route while I was on vacation with my family never showed up. Mom said it was a blessing in disguise.

That was a long time ago, of course, but every time I walk outside in the early morning and find my newspaper waiting for me, I offer a silent salute of recognition to the guy who delivered it.

ZFD firefighter to raise support for son by running Mini-Marathon in full gear

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Born with a heart defect, Caden Coonfield has already been through a lot in his first five months.

COVER STORY His father, Zionsville Fire Dept. firefighter Rob Coonfield, wants to do his part to help.

“The poor little guy has had to do a lot of fighting along the way, and this is something where I can fight right alongside of him and hopefully help other families with Mended Little Hearts, who are on the same journey,” Coonfield said.

Coonfield, 33, will run wearing his firefighting gear in the OneAmerica 500 Festival Mini-Marathon May 5 to support Mended Little Hearts of Indianapolis, a nonprofit that specializes in providing support for children with congenital heart defects and their families. He has a mission of completing 240 miles before the Mini-Marathon, accepting donations for each mile he completes.

Coonfield, who lives in Avon with his wife, Aimee, Caden, and 2-year-old daughter Addison, has been with ZFD for eight years. He previously worked for the Brownsburg Fire Dept. for two years.

“I think it’s great what he is doing.

Mended Little Hearts is a great organization, and they’ve been really supportive of our situation,” Aimee said. “It’s been nice because there are parents with children older than our son, and they’ve been able to give us insight and encouragement. It’s nice he’s doing it because I’ve been able to make more connections with other parents.”

On Nov. 13, 2017, Caden was born with hypoplastic left heart syndrome, a birth defect that affects normal blood flow through the heart. During pregnancy, the left side of the baby’s heart does not form correctly and can’t effectively pump blood to the body. So the right side of the heart must pump blood to the lungs and the rest of the baby’s body.

Rob said the family discovered Caden had HLHS around the 20-week point of the pregnancy when the doctor noticed something on the ultrasound and wanted more pictures of the baby’s heart.

“He has quite a few defects,” Rob said.

“Our surgeon said during his first open heart surgery that his heart is one of the most unique he has seen. When we found out in June, it was earth-shattering and hard for Aimee and me. We have a strong

tion quite normally.

“Obviously, there are some restrictions,” Rob said. “He will constantly be followed up on and be on medications the rest of his life.”

Some adults with HLHS are candidates for a heart transplant at some stage.

“Some kids don’t make it to this point, and there are some kids, and they started this 30-some years ago, that are now in their 30s and living ’normal’ lives,” Rob said.

Sports have been a big part of the Coonfield couple’s lives. Rob, who played soccer at Brownsburg High School and Indiana Wesleyan University, has been an assistant soccer coach at the University of Indianapolis for several years.

Aimee, daughter of former Avon High School girls basketball coach Steve Drabyn, played basketball and volleyball at Avon.

She played volleyball at Holy Family University in Philadelphia and is a former assistant volleyball coach at UIndy.

Rob said some kids with HLHS respond well to treatment and are able to play sports with some minor limits.

“Some have restrictions on their exertion and they are not able to do that type of activity,” he said. “Our biggest thing is, regardless of what he can do, whatever he is passionate about, he is able to do it within what his heart will allow him to do.”

This will be Rob Coonfield’s third time to run the Mini-Marathon.

“I’ve never run the Mini without fire gear,” Coonfield said. “The first time I did it in bunker pants and a bunker coat for a school I used to work with for underprivileged kids. The second time I did it was in full gear like I am this time.”

Sometimes, Coonfield trains running with his gear and sometimes without.

The full gear averages 70 pounds. His sister, Beth Nolin, a Fishers Fire Dept. firefighter, will run with him in her equipment.

Pledges for Coonfield’s 240 miles are in three stages at 10 cents a mile ($24), 20 cents a mile ($48) or 25 cents a mile ($60).

Digesting the pancake

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Commentary by Terry Anker

Hoosier political leader Rex Early was known to urge bipartisanship with the adage, “I’ve never seen a pancake so thin it didn’t have two sides.” The simple, accessible aphorism makes a hefty point. In order for a civil society to bind itself together, the pancake needs a top and bottom. The physics of the beloved breakfast food requires it.

Sure, the sides of the pancake can be a little different. In our house, one side always seems to get slightly crispy. It depends upon the chef as to whether the burnt side is turned up to warn the hungry table mate of what’s in store – or, it can be turned down, masking the shame of the inattentive cook. Regardless, the pancake may have one side that we like better than the other, but we have to eat both if we hope to gain its nutrients.

One wonders if the maxim about the engineering of a flapjack can be used to better inform our understanding of those in the world around us. Can we imagine that our least favorite person is really only one thing – liar, cheater or bad driver? Isn’t it more likely that he or she is a liar (at least in an encounter with us) but also a competent parent, a loving pet owner and dedicated daughter to an aging parent? Is it possible we might be more than one thing?

Deciding to flatten a human being into just two dimensions makes it easier for us to walk on them. If someone is good and bad, we have to burn a bit of mental energy to evaluate them on balance. We must decide if the pancake is simply too burned to eat or if a bit of syrup makes it work.

LEGION LOOK Poppies, poems honor vets Commentary by Beth Applegate The Zionsville American Legion will participate in the Zionsville Little League opening day ceremonies April 14 at Lions Park by handing out poppies and copies of the poem “In Flanders Field.” The Legion has a long history of honoring fallen veterans with poppies.

The American Legion brought National Poppy Day to the United States by asking Congress to designate the Friday before Memorial Day as National Poppy Day (this year it’s May 25). On Sept. 27, 1920, the poppy became the official flower of the American Legion family to memorialize the soldiers who fought and died during World War I. In 1924, the distribution of poppies became a national program of the American Legion.

The red poppy reminds us of the sacrifices made by our veterans while protecting our freedoms. Wear a poppy to

honor those who have worn our nation’s uniform.

After World War I, the poppy flourished in Europe. Scientists attributed the growth to soils in France and Belgium becoming enriched with lime from the rubble left by the war. The red poppy came to symbolize the blood shed during battle following the publication of the wartime poem, “In Flanders Fields.” The poem was written by Lt. Col. John McCrae, M.D. while serving on the front lines.

Led by the American Legion Auxiliary, members of the American Legion distribute poppies with a request that the person receiving the flower make a donation to support veterans, active-duty military personnel and their families with medical and financial needs.

In trying to figure out what to write about this week, I took a stroll down memory lane. Some of my Current articles from 2009 in particular are a HUMOR hoot. There’s one about me calling poison control when my niece ate cortisone cream on my watch.

There’s one delivering a beautiful eulogy on “Big Red,” our first minivan. And the best, a column detailing how adept kids are at employing chemical, biological and psychological warfare against parents: “Bodily fluids are available, free and extremely versatile in the hands of a child. You must be prepared!”

Now, that’s great writing.

Most of 2010 followed our adventures in real estate, including my horrifying accidental Republican vote in the primaries and a subsequent mental breakdown in the dairy aisle at Marsh while living with my in-laws in between houses. Good times. Goo-ood times.

Other highlights through the years?

The epic “fist-to-the-face incident” when my younger son popped his older, bratty brother during a family road trip that nearly put us in a ditch. The slow but steady death of my beloved water bra right in the middle of a lesson on polynomials that I was teaching. And, of course, the literal waste geyser that erupted two years ago from our main hall toilet that resulted in a complete kitchen remodel.

By comparison, I feel like life has been on cruise control of late. No more little ones under foot, no new jobs or homes on the horizon, and for the most part, little drama, save for the occasional teenage girl outburst. It may mean fewer exciting columns, sure, but we can always walk down memory lane. Peace out.

But seriously, folks Commentary by Dick Wolfsie

Most of what I write about is admittedly exaggeration. If I said my wife left to go shopping and came back two HUMOR days later, that is an obvious embellishment. If my wife were really gone for two days, I would, of course, have called the police.

Here’s what I am concerned about. Because I am always trying to be funny, I’m afraid the cops wouldn’t take me seriously: “Hi. This is Dick Wolfsie. My wife left on Thursday to buy clothes, and I haven’t seen her in two days.”

“Yes, Mr. Wolfsie, a very amusing premise. We here at Missing Persons are aware of the use of hyperbole to create a humorous effect. By the way, we suggest three days. Those with an ear for comedy know that a wife missing for two days just isn’t catchy enough. You need the number three.

Three is a funny number.”

“I’m not trying to be funny, officer. I believe my friend, Alan, ran away with my wife.”

“I know where you’re going with this, Dick. Now you are going to say, ‘And I really miss him?’ Sorry, but that’s a bit predictable. But the comic reversal here has potential. Just needs a little tweaking. “ “Look, I am not writing a humor column.

My wife is gone. When she left the house two days ago, I saw her getting in Alan’s Honda.”

“What a waste of potential amusement, Dick. Try saying a Buick or a Pontiac. Good use of the K sound is what you’re after here. By the way, scrap the name Alan. No one can form a clear mental picture of what someone named Alan would look like. You need a Bubba or a Reginald. Think visually, for heaven’s sake.”

“Look, for the absolute last time, I am not writing a humor column. I am not trying to be amusing. My wife has run away with my best friend. His name is Alan, not Bubba.

I do not miss him. I miss her. I saw them leave together in a Honda. Now, maybe I’m being overly suspicious, but doesn’t that seem a little funny to you?”

“No, Dick, not the way you tell it.”

How relationships affect our health Commentary by Dr. Nicole Phillips

who overindulge, it’s tempting to follow along. Social outings with friends and co-workers often take place at restaurants, which typically means larger portions and food selections that are higher in calories and less nutritious.

Alcohol and drug use – Again, it’s more likely that people will engage in unhealthy behaviors, such as heavy drinking or drug use, when they spend time with others who do the same. Although this can occur at any age or life stage, it can be more common with teenagers and young adults.

The first step to making positive changes is to identify and acknowledge when a relationship is negatively impacting health and well-being. A primary care provider is a good resource for exploring possible solutions, which may include referrals for counseling or connecting individuals to community resources or support groups. If isolation is an issue, volunteering or joining a social group are great ways to meet people. Relationships are an essential part of life, so it’s important to establish and nurture the ones that provide the greatest joy.

Although personal relationships have a significant impact on our life, we often don’t think about the influence they have on YOUR HEALTH our health. Studies show that people involved in positive relationships with family and friends tend to be happier and live longer than people who are isolated.

As we look for ways to manage and improve personal health, it’s worth considering how our relationships affect our physical health and emotional well-being. Certainly, there can be positive effects.

For example, if we surround ourselves with people who eat healthy and exercise, we’re more likely to adopt the same behaviors. Relationships can also result in negative consequences. Although every situation is different, here are some common health concerns that can be influenced by family and social relationships.

Depression – Although this condition has many causes, unstable relationships with family members and close friends can contribute to depression. Frequent negative interactions with spouses and children can cause mood swings and emotional distress that over time may affect physical health.

Weight management – Managing weight is easier when individuals spend time with people who eat healthy. Conversely, when we’re around people

Noble Order Brewing Company’s Zionsville location will soon add food to its craft beer and wine menu.

BREWERY Brewmaster and owner Mike Miller is teaming with Rusted Silo Brewery, opening soon in Lizton, to sell smoked meats and southern barbecue. Food from other establishments has always been welcome at Noble Order, but Miller said many customers want to order food and drinks in the same location.

“It’s part of the evolution of being in any particular location. We see a strong need for food,” Miller said. “We weren’t sure initially when we came in how that landscape would look.”

Lunch options will include pulled pork, Memphis-style ribs, coleslaw and salads. In the evening, specialty wings will be added.

Food is expected to be available beginning May 1.

“We want to service a need that could be fulfilled here in Zionsville with the particular food we’re going to serve and that quickcounter service,” Miller said.

He said the food isn’t menu-driven. Items will be available to grab at the counter.

“We just want to start very simple, get it going, and then we’ll continue to add,” Miller said.

Noble Order already has an established

relationship with Rusted Silo, serving its beers on tap along with beers from other local breweries.

Because food will be prepared at Rusted Silo’s location and served by quick-counter service in Zionsville, Miller wants the Board of Health to still allow dogs at Noble Order.

Families will soon be welcome, too.

“We feel like, again, that’s a need that we’re not getting,” Miller said. “We feel like we’re missing that element in Zionsville.”

To accommodate food and families, Miller said two counters have been added, along with a moveable division to separate the bar from the rest of the establishment. He also is changing some of the tables and adding a jukebox and games.

“Let’s make this so everybody can enjoy it,” Miller said.

Le Peep coming to Weston Pointe

By Maria Cook news@currentzionsville.com Zionsville and Carmel diners will soon have a new option for breakfast and brunch fare.

RESTAURANT Le Peep Restaurants of Indiana recently announced it will open a location in late summer at Weston Pointe Retail Center at 4400 Weston Pointe Dr., which is near the Zionsville/Carmel border.

Le Peep restaurants are known for traditional American breakfast and brunch cuisine, such as omelets and French toast, although lunch fare, such as sandwiches and salads, also are available.

According to Kristen Merritt, director of marketing for Le Peep Restaurants of Indiana, the new location will offer some new menu options as well as alcoholic beverages and a new brand of coffee.

“Diners can look forward to a full-service,

sit-down experience (with outside dining),” she said. “Each of our locations will feature new menu items (including vegetarian and gluten-free) as well as the addition of beer, wine and champagne. We are also excited to add Lavazza coffee to our menu.”

Merritt anticipates the new restaurant will become part of the morning routine for many area residents.

“Our new Zionsville location will provide a much-needed early morning option for business commuters heading downtown (for) perhaps a quick bite or breakfast meeting,” she said.

The new Le Peep restaurant will be locally owned and operated under the supervision of Frank Skaggs, vice president of operations for Le Peep Restaurants of Indiana. It will have the same operating hours as other Indiana Le Peep locations: 6:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Monday through Friday and 7 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. Saturday and Sunday.

By Chris Bavender news@currentzionsville.com Two businesses set to open soon in Whitestown will bring almost 200 jobs and more than $7.5 million in salaries to the area. Royal Interpack North America EXPANSION and NTN Bearing Corp. of America want to move into their new spaces as early as this month.

“These jobs pay close to $20 per hour, which works out to be about $41,600 per year. Many of those employees will eat and shop here in Whitestown. Some may even decide they’d like to live here,” Whitestown Town Manager Dax Norton said.

“These newly created salaries will provide a significant economic boost to our local economy. Combined, the two companies will also bring a total of more than $22 million in taxable, assessed value to our community, and those additional tax dollars can be used to improve parks, trails and infrastructure in that area.”

Royal Interpack, a Thailand-based com-

pany with U.S. headquarters in California, focuses on fresh food packaging. It plans to move into a 130,000-sqaure-foot space on Anson Boulevard.

NTN specializes in automotive and industrial equipment and has more than 65 plants worldwide, including in Columbus and Anderson. It will occupy a 280,000-square-foot space on Performance Way. Norton said Whitestown’s location keeps it relevant as companies look to expand.

“Our location is perfect for companies to ship their products across the Midwest and beyond,” he said. “We are right off the interstate, just a few miles north of the 15thlargest city in the country, Indianapolis. We also have the available land and space.”

NTN’s move to Whitestown will make it the first Japanese company to locate in Boone County.

“We are always working closely with the Boone EDC to bring in direct foreign investment,” Norton said. “They do a good job of marketing Boone County to businesses all over the world.”

Chuy’s coming to Michigan Road

By Heather Collins news@currentincarmel.com Chuy’s plans to bring its made-fromscratch Big as Yo’ Face Burritos, small-batch salsas and fresh-squeezed margaritas to the Carmel and ZionsRESTAURANT ville area in the spring of 2019.

The new restaurant in the former Applebee’s building at 10325 N. Michigan Rd. will be the second Chuy’s in the Indianapolis market. The company began branching out beyond Texas in the late 2000s.

Chuy’s Field Marketing Manager Courtney Jade Pelly said the company selected Carmel because of the success of the Noblesville Chuy’s restaurant. Pelly said the second

generation restaurant space gives Chuy’s the opportunity to create a unique interior design.

The Carmel location will be smaller than many of its locations at less than 5,500 square feet, which is reminiscent of the original Chuy’s on Barton Springs Road in Austin, Texas.

Construction is set to begin by the end of this year. For more, visit chuys.com.

World Voice Day set for April 16 at Palladium

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Some dream of the chance to sing on The Palladium stage in Carmel.

Thanks to an idea by The Voice Clinic of Indiana, that dream can come true for anyone.

MUSIC For the fourth year, The Palladium will hold World Voice Day at 6:30 p.m. April 16.

“It’s been very successful,” said Julia Shildmyer-Heighway, the Center for the Performing Arts director of education and community engagement. “We’ve probably had 30 singers each time we’ve had it. Our youngest has been 6 years old when she started, and she has done it every year, and her name is Yaya (Wang). The second year she accompanied herself on the Steinway piano. Our oldest singers have been in their 80s. They come from all over the Indianapolis area. We have an incredible accompanist, Sean Baker, who has worked the event every single year.”

Shildmyer-Heighway said people bring their own sheet music and sign in. They are called up to sing in the order of the sign-in sheet, like a karaoke bar.

“Some people accompany themselves on ukelele or guitar,” she said. “Other people bring music on MP3 players or an iPhone, and we have the ability to plug that into our sound system. We’ve had duets and trios.”

Doors open at 6 p.m. The event runs from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. As a result of time constraints, participation is limited to the first 30 to sign up. Songs are limited to 3 minutes. The event is free to participants and spectators.

“You don’t even have to know anyone who is singing, you can just come and enjoy the evening,” Shildmyer-Heighway said.

“We’ve had jazz and opera singers and a lot of show tunes. Some

of the younger people sing pop music.”

Some of the singers come from the Center’s Group Vocal Coaching Class, which is held for four weeks.

The stage is set like a cabaret night club and people sit at tables. There is a bar on stage.

The Voice Clinic of Indiana, based in Carmel, sponsors the World Voice Day vocal class. The clinic opened four years ago to provide clinical care, medical care, surgical care and voice therapy for people with any and every type of voice disorder and throat problem.

“It was a top priority for us to partner with the Center for the Performing Arts not only because of their phenomenal reputation but because they display the essence of voice in such a variety of ways,” said Dr. Stacey Halum, from The Voice Clinic of Indiana.

“They consistently attract globally acclaimed performers, such as Sheryl Crow (in 2017) and comedians like Dennis Miller (coming in May), and most of their performers use their voice in a unique way to connect with the audience. From soul singing to operatic masterpieces to just using comedic spoken voice to get belly laughs, the performers bring us entertainment that often relies on ‘voice’ as the foundation.”

Halum said they wanted World Voice Day to be a true celebration of voice.

“There is no better way to unite in the celebration of voice than to come together as a community and sing, with each singer being able to perform in his or her own way,” Halum said.

“World Voice Day is about appreciating healthy voices, and we were thrilled to partner with the Center for the Performing Arts so that performers of all levels, ages and backgrounds can enjoy the thrill of using their voices to performing on stage at The Palladium. I can’t imagine a better way to celebrate.”

Carmel Rotary Club’s Rock with Rotary has changed location from Kingston’s Music Showcase to Wolfies Grill, 1162 Keystone Way, Carmel.

The event is at 6:30 p.m. May 3 and three bands will play. Complimentary light appetizers will be available.

The first band to play will be The 11th Hour, featuring 2018 Carmel Rotary President John Stanley. Next will be Phone Club, a regular performer at local events such as CarmelFest and the Carmel International Arts Festival, featuring Carmel Rotarian Bryan Ferry. The final act will be Dwight Lightning and the Conch City All-Stars, a local band that was formed in 2014, drawing together members of various longstanding bands for an opportunity to play a sound that’s described as “island/beach/gulf and western music.”

Tickets are $30. All proceeds go to Carmel Rotary’s community grants fund. Tickets can be purchased online at squareup.com/ store/CarmelRotary/item/rock-with-rotary.

Zionsville — Poet Adam Henze will present passages from “Frankenstein” to help inspire original poems at Brick Street Poetry’s Frankenslam, set for 7 to 8:30 p.m. April 17 at the Hussey-Mayfield Memorial Public Library. Register at ZionsvilleLibrary.org.

Follow the North Star to return

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com Conner Prairie’s program depicting slavery and the journey for freedom along the Underground Railroad in 1836 HISTORY will return for its 20th season from 6:30 to 9:30 p.m. April 20, 21, 27 and 28.

“Follow the North Star is an immersive, participatory museum theater experience where we invite visitors to assume the role of an enslaved person seeking freedom in 1836 on the Underground Railroad,” said Catherine Hughes, director of museum theater and research at Conner Prairie. “You encounter a variety of characters that are people representing different attitudes and perspectives from that day. Some are friendly, and some are not.”

Participants go through an orientation prior to the program and a debrief after. Participants must be 12 or older. Those under 16 must be accompanied by an adult.

During orientation, all participants receive a white fabric and are advised that if the event becomes too intense, they are to tie the fabric around their heads. If used, they will still experience the program but

from a more-removed position. Participants using the fabric can opt to remove it again to rejoin the program. Typically, participating groups consist of 15 to 17 people.

Many participants are from local schools.

“The majority of our audience has developed organically into school groups because (the subject matter) ties in with eighth grade and 11th-grade Indiana history curriculum,” Hughes said. “It’s a very powerful experience, so teachers have really committed themselves to the program for many years because they saw such a great response in their students.”

Tickets are $17 to $20 and can be purchased at connerprairie.org.

Cool Creek Series adds concert

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com For Hamilton County Parks Dept. officials, more might be better with the Cool Creek Summer Concert Series.

MUSIC “The demand last year to extend the popular concert series into August was so great that the department decided to test the concept of staging six performances this year,” said Don Nicholls, resource development specialist for Hamilton County Parks. “If it goes well, we’ll look into making it a permanent addition to the series.”

The 24th annual Cool Creek Concert Series, sponsored by the Clay Township Trustee Office and Board, is held at Cool Creek Park, 2000 E. 151st Street, Carmel/Westfield.

The concerts begin with Cook and Belle June 15, followed by My Yellow Rickshaw June 22, Blue River Band June 29, Polkaband July 13 and ESB July 20 and The Flying Toasters Aug. 3. Blue River Band is appearing for the first time.

“Twice, the band has won the 8 Seconds Saloon ‘Country Battle of the Bands,’ and we’re looking forward to this group of talented country musicians lighting up our stage,” Nicholls said. “The park staff works

diligently to research and book a variety of music genres for our fans. Because this event is a series, we are able to do just that. However, the one common characteristic that we demand of all performers being considered is that they engage our fans.”

Nicholls said attendance varies based on weather conditions, band following and other events taking place in the area. But he said a typical season attracts approximately 6,000 concert fans.

Admission is $5. Children 12 and under are admitted free. Discount series passes are available. Gates open at 6 p.m. Concerts begin at 7 p.m. and conclude at 9:15 p.m. For complete concert series details, visit MyHamiltonCountyParks.com.

Anna Afshar’s painting career started quite by accident “My painting journey startEXHIBIT ed with the moment when my then-2-year-old son left his paints and brushes on the table and ran off to play, and I thought, ‘Hmm, I haven’t painted in years, maybe I should try? How could I capture those reflections in the water?’” said Afshar, a Fishers resident. “It was almost 20 years ago, and it has been an incredible journey that totally changed my life. I was a research scientist in a big diagnostic company then. I own a studio in the Stutz building in downtown (Indianapolis) now, and I cannot be happier.”

Afshar and Freddie Kelvin will be the featured artists at Art on Main in Carmel this month. There will be a reception “Time to Escape” for both artists from 6 to 9 p.m.

April 20 at the gallery, 111 W. Main. St. “The highlight of our exhibit will be faraway places that Freddie and I escape to quite often,” Afshar said. “My recent escape was to Florida, so my part of the exhibition is about water, sun and exotic places where you can relax, sail, read a book or have a

glass of wine with your date. There will be all new works.”

Afshar paints in all three mediums, watercolor, oil and acrylic.

Kelvin, a Carmel resident, said the theme of his photography exhibit is predominantly water-related.

“And this includes several reflections, which I find fascinating because reflections in the water are where the real and abstract worlds collide,” Kelvin said. “As a result, photographs of reflections often look more like paintings than realistic photographs. A smaller part of my exhibition is related to dance, as I am a passionate photographer of modern dance and ballet.”

Fairyville celebrates Earth Day

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com The Nickel Plate Arts campus in Noblesviille will once again be transformed into Fairyville.

NICKEL PLATE ARTS “One of the reasons we do this event is it’s a chance to celebrate Earth Day by connecting nature and art, so it’s a fun way for families to celebrate Earth Day,” NPA Director Aili McGill said. “But it’s also great fun for kids because they can dress up and pretend with us. We’ll have real-life fairies on campus. It’s such a fun way to celebrate creativity. For anyone who is inspired by fairies or the magical world, it’s a fun way to celebrate spring.”

The sixth annual Fairyville is set for April 18 to 21 at NPA, 107 S. 8th St. The event starts with Winged Weekdays April 18-20 from noon to 5 p.m., with Fairy Tea Parties at 2:30 and 4:30 p.m. daily.

McGill said the entire event usually draws between 200 and 300 people.

Fairy Friday (April 20) and Sprite Saturday (April 21) are typically the busiest days.

“We’ll have music, storytellers and all sorts of fun stuff going on that (Friday)

evening,” McGill said. “We have the Fairyville Trail set up. We have two branches of the trail this year, which is new. One branch will be the Nickel Plate campus west toward the River Walk and it will go along the River Walk. Then the other branch there will be Fairyville district around the historic square.

Merchants are joining in with us and decorating their doors to show their doors are fairy-friendly, too.”

The fairy houses will be displayed along the trail.

“It’s kind of like a treasure hunt. You can get a map so you can find them all,” McGill said.

Blueprint for Improvement: Zionsville kitchen expansion Commentary by Larry Greene

AFTER SOLUTIONS

Before

Background Info: This 1980s home in the Colony Woods neighborhood of Zionsville is a perfect space for the homeowners to raise their family. The original kitchen, however, made it tough for the busy family to entertain.

The goal was to create a large open-concept kitchen that allowed the homeowners to entertain comfortably and increase overall functionality of the space.

1. The largest modification was removing the wall between the kitchen and the main hallway and utilizing the extra space to add a 10-foot island.

2. Bulkheads were removed and all new ceiling height cabinetry was added to make the space appear larger.

3. The new cabinetry is equipped with accessories, like charging ports and pantry pull-outs, for functional storage.

4. Widening doorways and new flooring made the lower level feel like more of an open concept.

5. New countertops, backsplash, hardware and plumbing fixtures finished off the modern kitchen design.

After

BEFORE PROBLEMS The previous kitchen was long and narrow, making it hard for multiple people to be in the space at once.

Additionally, the bulkheads made the ceilings appear lower and the room feel smaller. The kitchen contained its original cabinets, which lacked appeal and functionality.

Starting with an interrobang Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt

Genevieve Keegan-Bedano

Anne-Marie Briscoe

Catherine Michael

Robin Kelly

KENA HOLLINGSWORTH Founding Partner

Kristyn Horvath

CHRISTINA ZIVITZ Founding Partner

Erin Connell

Welcome to the golden age of outrage. If you’re just finishing a 3-year social media cleanse, I’ve got some GRAMMAR GUY bad news for you: People are ticked off.

People are royally ticked about pretty much everything: Guns, kneeling, not kneeling, walls, refugees, Starbucks (in general) and anything that remotely resembles a political stance. And, if you’re not outraged about any or all of the above, there’s an outrage for that, too.

Because of this, I’d like to put forward a controversial idea (no, I’m not talking about the all-emoji newspaper again): the interrobang.

The interrobang (‽) is the passionate love child of the question mark and the exclamation point. And, while it is currently considered a nonstandard form of punctuation, it simultaneously questions your competence and yells at you. How dare you take ______ position on _____ issue‽ Who do you think you are‽ You put pineapples on your pizza‽ What’s wrong with you‽ The interrobang is distinctly American: insulting, yet efficient.

Conceived by Martin Speckter in 1962,

the idea of the interrobang actually gained some popularity for a hot second. Although most of our computer fonts don’t support it, the interrobang was available on select typewriters in the late 1960s into the 1970s.

I think we’re living in the midst of the interrobang era; therefore, it’s time to bring it into the mainstream. But in order to type it easily, we’d have to vote off one of the characters on our standard computer keyboards. What symbol gets the boot?

How about the tilde (~)? Or maybe the little upside down v thing above the 6 (^)? When’s the last time you used either of those?

In the same way that the Merriam-Webster dictionary adds words based on popular usage (and not necessarily critical approval), what does it take to get a punctuation mark added to common usage? If listicle and humblebrag made their way into the dictionary last year, the interrobang should receive serious consideration as an addition to our bag of punctuation options.

Arc de Triomphe in Paris. (Photo by Don Knebel)

Napoleon’s triumphal arch Commentary by Don Knebel The Arc de Triomphe is the most famous monument in Paris, inspiring both a notorious aerial stunt and an honTRAVEL ored American memorial.

In 1805, forces under Napoleon defeated Russian and Austrian armies in the Battle of Austerlitz. Now seeing himself in the fashion of victorious Roman emperors, Napoleon decided that he should be able to march his troops into Paris beneath a triumphal arch. He selected Place de l’Étoile (Square of the Star), a plaza at the western end of the Champs Elysees named for its 12 radiating streets, for an arch modeled on Rome’s Arch of Titus. After repeated delays, the 148-foot by 164-foot arch, officially named Arc de Triomphe de l’Étoile, was dedicated in 1836 during the reign of King Louis Philippe. By this time, Napoleon had been exiled to Helena and never saw his arch, but his body was carried beneath it after being returned to Paris on order of the king in 1840.

On July 14, 1919, French troops marched

under the Arc de Triomphe to celebrate their victory in World War I. Three weeks later, a French pilot, offended that airmen had been required to parade on foot, famously flew his biplane through the 48-foot wide arch opening. In 1920, France’s Unknown Soldier was buried beneath the arch. On November 11, 1923, War Minister Andre Maginot lit an eternal flame near the tomb. Each evening at 6:30 p.m., veterans’ groups ceremonially rekindle the flame to remember the sacrifices of French war dead. The moving ceremony inspired Jacqueline Kennedy to place an eternal flame on President Kennedy’s grave in Arlington National Cemetery.

Visitors can climb 284 steps to the top of the Arc de Triomphe, where they can get a spectacular view of the Champs Elysees, considered by many to be the most beautiful street in the world.

DISPATCHES Reusable food wraps — Bee’s Wrap makes reusable wraps of organic cotton and beeswax to use for lunches instead of plastic sandwich bags.

After lunch, simply rinse and reuse. Cost is about $21 for one sandwich and two snack wraps. Available at BeesWrap.com.

Quick salad dressing — When you have an almost empty jam or jelly jar, add a quarter cup lemon juice, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard and salt and pepper. Cover and shake well, then add a half-cup of olive oil and shake again. You’ll have a nice vinaigrette to use on your salads.

Fresh scents – Place a few drops of essential oil on the cardboard tube inside your toilet paper roll before putting it on the holder. Each time someone unrolls paper, a light fragrance will be released.

Try a mix of clove and lemon for a clean aroma.
