Trip brings electricity to village

By Chris Bavender news@currentzionsville.com For two weeks in March, Michael Bowman performed some of the toughest work of his career. The Boone REMC boone remc lead journeyman lineman was part of a crew working to bring electricity to the small village of El Zapotillo in the mountainous Cuilco, Huehuetenango region of Guatemala.

“I’m used to all of the updated hydraulic equipment we have, so I wanted to see what it was like when it first started, which was setting poles by hand, climbing up and doing it all manually,” Bowman said. “I knew it would be hard work, but once I got there and got to know the people, it became more personal.”

The trip was part of the “Project Indiana: Empowering Global Communities for a Better Tomorrow” initiative that has helped bring hope in the form of electricity to four rural Guatemalan villages since 2012. Bowman was one of 16 electric cooperative linemen from Indiana to take part in the project.

“It was humbling work. We were at 10,000 feet up and we weren’t used to the altitude at all. I’d climb a pole and get about half way up and have to sit there and catch my breath,” Bowman said. “The locals were the ones to take the wire from pole to pole, and they’d take it and throw it over their shoulders and just go up and down the hills. It was amazing to watch them work.”

Although the work was tough, Bowman said it was worth it to see the expression on villagers’ faces as the crew started to energize the homes.

“We would get the family outside the house and throw the switch to energize it, and their

eyes would get so big,” he said. “We are used to it but they aren’t, and some people had tears in their eyes. The biggest thing for me was the kids, because I have two of my own.

They’d look at us not knowing what to think. It was just a strange feeling.”

Now that he’s back home in Whitestown, Bowman said he’d do it all over again.

“You know you made a difference in a lot of people’s lives,” he said. “Just knowing that little bit of electricity will help them meant a lot.”

Boone County to provide free Narcan training, doses

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com

Cindy Murphy understands no one wants to think about witnessing a drug overdose.

But Murphy, a regpublic health istered nurse and an administrator for the Boone County Health Dept., said being prepared for that might save a life.

“It’s like CPR, no one wants to have to use it,” Murphy said. “When you have that training, that’s what you revert back to. With a situation like that when our adrenaline is high, you go to your level of training.”

Murphy said the county is one of several departments for which the Indiana State Dept. of Health provided Narcan doses for

individuals who might be able to prevent an overdose. Narcan Nasal Spray reverses overdoses caused by opiates such as Lortab, OxyContin and heroin.

There will be free instructional sessions on how to administer Narcan from 6 to 7 p.m. April 24 and 10 to 11 a.m. May 8 at the Boone County Office building, 116 W. Washington St., Lebanon.

“We’ll be able to provide training for all persons witnessing an overdose,” Murphy said.

“We’re not targeting any one person or population except for people who think they are at risk for witnessing an overdose. It could be a passerby, it could be in a restroom, a convenience store or a park. If persons want to have the training and the dose of Narcan so they can attempt to save a life, that’s what

we want to try to facilitate.”

Murphy said there is a short video and presentation.

“We are not just training on the use of Narcan, but we’re training on recognizing an overdose,” Murphy said. “We discuss how to respond, calling 911 and getting EMS en route.

If you give the dose, you stay with the person until officials arrive.”

Murphy, who will be assisted by another public health nurse, said they will do a medical demonstration of the product itself.

“The persons in attendance will then demonstrate to us,” Murphy said. “We can provide them with a wallet card and a certificate that they’ve received the training.”

After working as a police officer in his hometown, Mitchel Tuttle knew he wanted something more. public safety “I realized that I wanted to come to a bigger department that was growing fast and that had a lot of upside potential for my long-term career goals and also a wonderful department to be a part of,” Tuttle said.

Tuttle He set his sights on Zionsville. He achieved his goal when Mayor Tim Haak officially welcomed Tuttle to the Zionsville Police Dept. with a swearing-in ceremony March 20.

“I took it as a big honor,” Tuttle said. “The words I say I really mean. I really hope to uphold this (town) and its high value. Like I said, it’s a great town, so I don’t ever want to let it down or dirty its image in any way.”

Tuttle, 26, grew up in Greensburg, a small town where everyone knows each other, he said. He was inspired by a local police officer to pursue law enforcement.

“It was a police officer from Greensburg that was really big into interpersonal relationships with high school students,” he said. “He reached out to me. My dad kind of wasn’t there when I was growing up, so he just kind of became that role model for me.”

Tuttle studied criminal justice at Anderson University before landing a job as a jail officer at the Decatur County Jail. Later, he joined the Greensburg Police Dept., where he worked for two years.

Now, Tuttle is starting fresh in Zionsville, learning locations and how the department works. He will ride along with officers for the next few weeks to train.

“My officers that are training me right now are very smart and very wise about what they’re doing,” Tuttle said. “They have a lot of knowledge for me, and I already feel like I’m growing and learning more and more every day from them.”

Public invited to preview

By Heather Lusk news@currentzionsville.com When Zionsville Community High School students visit the annual After Prom festivities this year, they’ll after prom be immersed in all the elements from a Scooby Doo cartoon with “Mysteries at Midnight.”

The public is invited to a free preview of the decorations from 7 to 8:30 p.m. April 22 at the high school, with refreshments provided by the National Honor Society.

“It’s a great opportunity to see what the high schoolers are doing and give kids an introduction to the high school,” said Cheryl Rolland, who serves on the committee.

The annual After Prom, free to those attending the dance and their guests, gives students a safe and fun place to celebrate into the early hours of the morning.

Seniors who do not attend the prom can purchase tickets. Last year, roughly 800 students attended.

ZCHS parent Jodi Beebe and the After Prom committee create the theme each year and chose Scooby Doo because of the variety it offered to create unique areas.

“She tries to come up with something

that is different, that is engaging to kids,” Rolland said.

Rolland added that many parents and grandparents come through and reminisce about their time at the high school.

Rolland said 150 volunteers begin their work to transform sections of the school after dismissal on Friday and continue working all day Saturday.

“We are usually still putting things together right up until the time that After Prom begins,” Rolland said. “Every time you walk through you think this has to be the best one, then you walk through the next year and think they’ve outdone themselves again.”

The Caring Hands Camp will return to Zionsville this summer, giving children an opportunity to learn summer camps about and complete community service projects each day of the week.

The Boys & Girls Club of Zionsville coordinates the program and is seeking counselors to help make it happen.

“Each day there is a different theme.

For example, Monday is animal protection.

Tuesday is beautification and clean up.

Wednesday is senior giving. Thursday is hunger relief. Friday is kids for kids,” said Sarah Webler, unit director at the club.

“We’re teaching kids they can make a difference in the community.”

Webler is seeking volunteers who are high school-age or older.

“You don’t need any experience,” Webler said. “They just need to be positive people who are ready to be role models for these kids.”

Sessions will be offered from June 12 to 16 and July 10 to 14. Counselors are expected to work from 8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.

Responsibilities include leading campers

through projects and activities. Volunteer counselors will receive training, a T-shirt, water bottle and lunch each day.

Counselors will be accepted on a first come, first served basis.

“A lot of our counselors are repeat counselors, so not only do the kids have a great time but so do the counselors,” Webler said.

“There is always an element of service, but it is a camp, so there is always lots of fun.

It’s really remarkable to see the kind of impact these kids have made. It’s unbelievable. It gives you chills to see all the things they can do together.”

For more information or to volunteer, email Webler at swebler@bagcoz.org.

Traders Point North growing

KITCHEN AND BATH SEMINAR

REMODELING ESSENTIALS

JOIN US AT OUR REMODELING SHOWROOM

Traders Point Christian Church North’s driving motivation for expansion was clear.

“Our mission is removing faith barriers that keep people from Jesus,” Traders Point North Campus Pastor Greg Anderson said. “One of the barriers is distance. People were traveling 20 to 30 minutes to the Northwest campus (in Whitestown). That’s just too far for people to be involved and be engaged.”

The first service in its new Carmel church, 1242 W. 136th St., was Feb. 19. The building was formerly the home of Central Christian Church, which has moved to a new building in Westfield.

“We love the location. It is in the center of Carmel and right off 31,” said Anderson, a Zionsville resident. “We’re drawing more from east Carmel, so it’s an easy commute over here. People love the feel and look.”

In April 2015, the non-denominational church announced it would start a campus in Carmel. Services started at Creekside Middle School with a soft launch in December 2015. There were approximately 350 people at the first two services, but they kept growing.

Anderson said they averaged about 720 people at Creekside.

“We’ve averaged 1,210 in this new building,” Anderson said.

The sermon is typically broadcast from the Northwest church in Whitestown.

The building remodeling started in May 2016 while Central Christian Church was still conducting services.

The church launched a downtown Indianapolis campus in January, and an Avon campus is set to open in the fall at a temporary site at Avon Middle School.

U.S. flag disposal bins available

By Heather Collins • news@currentzionsville.com

Center Township Fire Chief Mike Spidel pauses next to a flag collection bin in Boone County. (Submitted photo)

Two Boone County men are dignifying the disposal of U.S. flags through the installation of new flag collection bins. Center Twp. Fire Chief and Boone County Veteran’s SerCounty vices Officer Mike Spidel and Lebanon Fire Chief Chuck Batts received a $1,500 community grant from the Boone County Solid Waste Management District to place flag collection bins throughout the county.

“We didn’t want to see the flags just thrown into the trash. To us, that was wrong,” Spidel said.

Spidel said the idea was inspired by a complaint call. A Zionsville resident saw that U.S. flags from a local cemetery were not being disposed of properly. Per federal law, “the flag, when it is in such condition that it is no longer a fitting emblem for display, should be destroyed in a dignified way, preferably by burning.”

Spidel said after he started the bin program, tattered and torn flags poured in from throughout Boone County.

He said the disposal process takes place at the firefighters training tower. He follows the same protocol as the Veterans of Foreign Wars for flag disposal, including reciting the Pledge of Allegiance and burying the ashes of the flags.

The bins are available in Lebanon at the Veteran’s Affairs office (220 W. Washington St.), the Center Twp. Fire Dept. (525 Ransdell Rd.), Lebanon Fire Stations 11 and 12 (975 Lasley Dr. and 18 Anderson Ln,) and on the first floor of the Boone County Courthouse (212 Courthouse Square). Spidel wants to expand the program throughout the county.

“I’m really proud of the way it just took off,” he said.

My grandson was 25 last month Commentary by Ward Degler We celebrated my grandson’s 25th birthday last month. He brought his 2-year-old son down from Minnesota, and we met at my daughter’s home in plain talk Missouri.

There was the usual ice cream and cake, of course, and later he connected with some of his buddies from the local fire department. Chris wasn’t a fireman, but he greatly admired the men and women who daily put themselves on the line to save lives and property. He got to know some of them as an auxiliary volunteer when he was in high school.

Chris overcame a bunch of obstacles growing up. His father died of a drug overdose when he was still in grade school, and when his mother found it difficult to care for him, he and his two sisters moved in with their aunt, my elder daughter. School wasn’t easy for him, but he labored through it.

After he graduated high school, Chris surprised everyone by applying for and being accepted into the National Guard. He sailed through basic and secondary training and took obvious pride in being ready to defend his country. I attended his gradu-

ation ceremonies at Fort Leonard Wood, and I have never been prouder.

Chris married his high school sweetheart, and they moved to Minnesota. Young Carter was born two years ago July, and Chris added “father” to his resume.

It’s impossible to know for sure what caused the trouble in their marriage, and it really doesn’t matter. It ended in divorce court, and Chris moved out.

The loss was hard, and the ensuing isolation must have been overwhelming. He kept hoping for reconciliation with his wife, but the damage was apparently irreparable.

Chris lived alone and looked for answers.

When none were forthcoming, he sent a one-line text to my daughter saying he couldn’t live like that anymore. Then he took his own life.

I’m sure it is true that Chris felt his burdens had become too heavy to bear. And now, so are mine.

Zionsville resident makes career of favorite hobby

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Jim Carpenter took a career detour after graduating from Indiana University with a bachelor’s cover story degree in biology in 1975.

“I trained to be a scientist and ended up being a businessman,” he said.

As an IU senior, Carpenter discovered birding and joined the Student Audubon Society.

“I decided I like this whole birds, ecology and trees (thing),” Carpenter said.

“That was the time I realized I didn’t want to be a doctor. Then IU Med School decided I didn’t want to be a doctor, either.”

After his application was rejected, Carpenter figured he would become a research and teaching professor but eventually decided there weren’t enough jobs available in that field. So Carpenter graduated from Purdue with a master’s in horticulture in 1979.

Carpenter managed two Indianapolisarea garden centers but got back to his true love of birds. In 1981, he opened a 700-square foot store in Broad Ripple called Wild Birds Unlimited, selling products for backyard bird feeding.

Today, there are 310 franchise stores in the U.S. and Canada. Carpenter has one of his own franchises at 3956 E. 82nd St. in Indianapolis. Carpenter, Wild Birds Unlimited president, runs a franchise support center in Carmel.

The long-time Zionsville resident’s book, “The Joy of Bird Feeding,” was pub-

lished earlier this year.

“I married my wife, Nancy, in 1983 and she helped me grow the company for many years,” Carpenter said. “She pulled back to raise our two daughters (Rebecca, 27, Casey, 24) in the mid-90’s.”

Through the years, Carpenter’s knowledge of the hobby kept growing.

“Bird feeding is like any hobby where you can buy stuff that works really well or you can buy stuff that is mediocre,” Carpenter said. “We got all the stuff that works really well. I’ve been doing this for 36 years. We’re innovators, testing our products, coming up with new things to enjoy the hobby more.”

According to the 2011 U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service National Survey of Fishing, Hunting and Wildlife Associated Recreation, 52.8 million people feed birds and watch wildlife in their own back yards. There is $5 billon spent annually on bird seed and wildlife food.

Carpenter said the support center helps them run their store from supplies, marketing, hiring and training.

“One thing we’re proud of is the 500 franchises are surveyed for franchisee satisfaction, and out of all those we’re No. 11 in franchisee satisfaction and No. 1 in the retail category,” Carpenter said of Franchise Business Review’s 2017 awards.

Zionsville residents Dave and Kathy Williams, who own a Carmel franchise, 9830 N. Michigan Rd., Suite A,

labor of love Carpenter started writing “The Joy of Bird Feeding” 15 years ago.

“There was a good book or two written in the 1970s, and no one had really written an update,” Carpenter said. “I thought I knew as much about bird feeding as anyone, having spent my days with thousands of customers.”

Carpenter said he was always thinking about how to feed birds better.

“I spent 10 to 12 years thinking about the book, writing little notes and pieces and organizing the book,” he said. “Three years ago, I got serious. I got an agent and publisher. I pretty much wrote the book over a year-and-a-half period and then worked with the publisher on the design of the book. It took quite awhile, because were long-time customers of Carpenter before deciding to open their own store.

They will hold a book signing for Carpenter from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. April 19.

“We had been a customer up until 15 years ago when we bought our store,” Dave said. “I would venture that there isn’t anybody that knows about the art of bird feeding more than Jim Carpenter at this point. (People) told him you can’t make any money selling bird seed. He proved them wrong on that point.”

book signing • Who: Wild Birds Unlimited founder Jim Carpenter will sign his book “The Joy of Bird Feeding.”

• When: 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. April 19 • Where: Wild Birds Unlimited, 9830 N. Michigan Rd., Suite A, Carmel.

there are 800 photos in the book.”

Carpenter said he probably had 20,000 photos of birds on feeders. Then they had to go through the birds identification section.

Carpenter said he wants to empower people to become better hobbyists.

“I also want them to know whether they buy at a speciality store or a bigbox store how to make good choices,” he said. “There is so much bad bird food sold that birds really don’t eat. I want people to buy all the right stuff, no matter where they buy it. The other thing I want them to do is be more thoughtful about the hobby.”

The book is available on amazon.com and wbu.com.

o b s e r v ation Shifting loyalties

Pining for a shower, Arnie and the ‘80s

Commentary by Terry Anker

I’m a mess, people. I smell, I haven’t brushed my teeth in over 30 hours and I’m choking back tears as I humor watch an homage to the late Arnold Palmer. Wow. Even I am impressed with this level of falling apart.

What gives?

Well, as you may remember from last week, I headed down to Florida with five-sixths of my family for spring break vacation. I’ve just returned, having driven through the night for 16 hours straight.

Doo helped some, taking the 1-to-5 a.m.“orphan maker” shift, and then again from 7 to 9 when my eyes quite literally began to cross. I suppose when a middle-ager like myself only gets about four hours of upright dozing, she’s bound to be a little off.

But I think my emotional reaction to the Masters Tournament is more than the result of post-road trip exhaustion. I grew up watching golf. I have vivid memories of Papaw sipping his highball and cheering on Jack Nicklaus and Tom Watson. My parents have a painting of their favorite players hanging in their kitchen. Doo and I have always followed Phil Mickelson and fondly recall his first green jacket win just a month after our fourth child was born. When I hear the CBS intro music, I get chills. And I may have a commentator crush on Jim Nantz.

As I read back through this, I realize how lame I sound. I can’t pull all-nighters and I actually choose to watch golf, even when awesome movies like “Big Trouble in Little China” are on. I suppose the combination of sleep deprivation, a blatant disrespect for personal hygiene and the gorgeous pink azaleas of Augusta National have left me susceptible to a longing for my youth. Oh, how I long for the ‘80s!

But here in 2017, I should probably just pull myself together and shower. Peace out.

Kudos to the North Carolina Tar Heels for the solid play during the NCAA men’s basketball championship game. While we can happily celebrate the victory, is it OK to pine a bit that our own Indiana teams didn’t fare as well? My beloved IU failed even to make it to the starting line. Then Purdue, Butler and all the Big Ten teams collapsed in due course.

So, we picked a new favorite and cheered for their victory – even if somewhat less passionately! Did we betray our loyalty to our former teams by picking a new hero – or did they fail us by leaving us without one? Our desire to back a winner is a strong one. We find ourselves caught up in the cheering section, advocating for folks that, just a few short weeks earlier, would have seemed inconceivable. Now, we ride the emotional wave with each shot and exchanging lead on the scoreboard.

In giving our allegiance so easily, have we debased our commitment to the home team? Or, are we simply making due with the choices available – and vigorously digging in? Whether it’s sports, politics or menu choices, sometimes we must acquaint ourselves with a backup plan.

Can the fish be just as good as the pasta?

Pasta is our favorite. Should we go hungry if none is offered? Or, should we identify an alternative and find a way to enjoy it, a bit fishy though it may be?

The Tar Heels brought some terrific entertainment. And, we enjoyed it. Still, my heart remembers the storied victories of my own alma mater’s past. As a spectator sport, basketball is better when we choose a team to support – even if we hold out, at least a bit of our love, for the home team.

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Campaign encourages teens to call or text for help Commentary submitted by CEO Indiana Youth Services Association David Westenberger, Indiana Senator James Merritt, Indiana State Treasurer Kelly Mitchell “If someone had called for help right away, maybe my son would have survived his first high school party.” It’s a statement few parents think they’ll ever make, but one that far too many Hoosier parents have already made.

In an effort to create awareness, particularly during prom and graduation season, Indiana Youth Services Association’s Make Good Decisions program and State Sen. Jim Merritt, author of Indiana’s Lifeline Law, have partnered with Indiana’s Text-to-911 services and Indiana State Treasurer Kelly Mitchell, chair of the Statewide 911 Board, to increase public awareness about the ability to call or Text-to-911 in an emergency. Indiana’s Lifeline Law provides legal amnesty from prosecution for underage drinking, and many related drinking offenses, for a person who calls or texts (or for persons assisting) and reports a medical emergency, sexual assault or other crime. The

purpose of the partnership is to encourage young people to contact 911 for help when they find themselves or a friend in an emergency.

HOW IT WORKS Those who contact 911 via Text-to-911 or by calling must demonstrate that they are acting in good faith by completing ALL of the following three steps: • Call and provide their full name and other relevant information requested by law enforcement officers and emergency medical responders.

• Stay at the scene with the ‘victim’ until law enforcement and emergency medical assistance arrives.

• Cooperate with authorities on the scene.

Indiana is leading the nation with innovative technology to better serve Hoosiers and make it easier and safer for the public to contact 911 in an emergency. Indiana is one of only four states that offers a statewide deployment of Text-to-911 services. If you’re a parent to teens, please encourage them to call or text 911, and stay and cooperate if they find themselves in an emergency.

Death by Oreos great way to go Commentary by Dick Wolfsie We hear a lot about frivolous lawsuits, but we don’t hear nearly enough about the delicious ones. A guy from humor Kentucky is suing the company that makes Oreo cookies.

He asserts that Oreos are slowly killing him. So what’s the problem? This sounds like a fun way to die.

The Nabisco company claims that 450 billion of these treats have been eaten in the last 100 years and no autopsy has ever listed the cause of death as Oreo cookies.

I’ve been eating Oreo cookies for 65 years. We know the ritual: A glass of cold milk, plus 20 or 30 Oreos, then you start twisting them apart. Some people eat the side with cream frosting first; some just eat the frosting; some dip the cookie in milk; some guzzle the milk after the cookie.

How can you sue a company that has given you so many wonderful options in your life?

So, does this guy have a case? Unlike cigarettes, where a warning is clearly emblazoned on the package, there is no admonition anywhere on the Oreo package or on the cookie. Considering how people eat Oreos, maybe inside the cookie, right

in the vanilla cream, the Nabisco people should print: “The Surgeon General has determined that eating Oreo cookies over an entire lifetime can raise your triglycerides and affect your cholesterol levels.”

The Nabisco company admits their cookies have many calories, but they claim they are already testing alternatives. When McDonald’s said they were looking for an alternative to their fatty hamburger, they came up with a soy burger. Two out of three people who ate the burgers loved them. That was the problem. In six months, only three people ate them.

What about those cauliflower and broccoli farmers who have been getting away with murder for years? People are taking those veggies, breading and deep frying them. Then they dunk them in a creamy cheese sauce.

Those farmers better have some pretty good lawyers.

Hoosier Village to offer Rock Steady Boxing

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com When Ellen Schemmel first heard about Rock Steady Boxing’s ability to assist those with Parkinson’s disease like senior herself, she wasn’t interested.

“I thought that was a guy thing,” Schemmel said. “So I never followed up on it.”

Eventually she was persuaded to see it in person, so she went along with Hoosier Village Wellness Director Krista Broshears, and she was impressed. Schemmel began training at Rock Steady Boxing’s main facility more than a year ago.

Schemmel, who has lived in Zionsville for 43 years, moved to Hoosier Village, a senior living community, two years ago. Broshears, who became certified to teach the Rock Steady method last summer, will begin holding Rock Steady classes April 24 at Hoosier Village’s Keenan Community Center for residents and non-residents who have Parkinson’s. Broshears held an information session March 28.

Schemmel said she was diagnosed with Parkinson’s in 2013 after she turned 70.

The Benefits of Hiring a Designer

By David Decker With the ever-growing popularity of home renovation television shows and websites like Houzz & Pinterest many homeowners have developed the “do-ityourself” mindset when it comes to remodeling their own homes. Unfortunately, what those shows and sites don’t advertise are the true logistics of getting to the finished product; and sometimes it’s those unknowns that take that “dream photo” and turn it into a nightmare. That is why it is important to bring those photos to a design professional instead of attempting to do it on your own.

Not only will your designer be able to turn those ideas into a reality, but they will tailor them to your own style to create a space unique to you. A good designer will take the time to get to know you and your needs, determine the struggles that currently exist in your space

and re-design it to guarantee a more functional outcome.

Aside from functionality, professionals have an eye for design and the knowledge needed to make appropriate material selections for any space. They get the first look into the latest and greatest trends in the design world and are trained to generate innovative ideas and designs with exclusive materials.

Additionally, notable designers are able to guide you to qualified tradesmen to ensure installation standards are met if not exceeded throughout every aspect of the remodel.

Renovating your home should be an exciting experience, not a stressful one. Let us help you! For more information or to set up a meeting with one of our designers for your next kitchen or bathroom remodel, give us a call at 317.575.9540 or visit our website at www.theaffordablecompanies.com.

The Lemon Bar to debut

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com The Flying Cupcake has been very good to Kate Drury.

She opened the first store new biz in 2007 and now owns six The Flying Cupcake stores and another store called The Dancing Donut.

For her next act, Drury plans to open a new concept in Zionsville called The Lemon Bar by The Flying Cupcake. The store is expected to open in mid-summer at 95 E. Pine St. “It’s just an evolution of a current model,” Drury said. “It’s like if The Flying Cupcake was wearing her mom’s heels. It’s a little more sophistication but playful like The Flying Cupcake.”

The Lemon Bar is the first of her businesses to have a liquor license. Drury said it will have Indianapolis-area beers on tap, champagne and wine.

“We’ll have champagne slushies and things like that,” Drury said. “The desserts will be a little more involved. We’ll have cakes by the slices. We’ll have lighter fare American bistro, so we’ll have salads, soups and quiches. We’ll bring in donuts from The Dancing Donut. We’ll have a waffle bar. It’s definitely more food-oriented, but dessert is the focus.”

Students make acting debut in ‘Gatsby’

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com The novice approach worked best for Zionsville Community High School senior Evan Wang.

ZCHS Wang had no acting experience before auditioning for the role of Jay Gatsby.

“I read the novel as a junior and I felt it would be a great opportunity for me to try out for the lead of Gatsby,” Wang said.

“I researched the movie. I re-read parts of the book. I asked my English class for help, and I tried my best to make my own version of the character. I’m very excited to bring that to the stage.”

ZCHS will present “The Great Gatsby” at 7 p.m. April 28 and 29 at the Zionsville Performing Arts Center.

Wang had auditioned for a few plays previously but didn’t get the roles.

“I thought this would be a great way to cap off my senior year,” Wang said.

Junior Libby Kilway is playing Daisy Buchanan. Kilway said she just wanted to be in the show, even if it was as a background dancer.

“I was kind of shocked when I got the lead female (role),” Kilway said. “I’ve never been in a play before, so this is my first

Kilway likes that Daisy is emotional.

“I can play around with sadness and anger and sarcasm,” Kilway said. “She does have a bit of a mean streak, which is also kind of fun. I can relate to her. I feel myself in bits and pieces of her.”

Junior Noah Boehm is portraying Nick Carraway.

“I like that he is both within and without, as the book says. He’s within the play

as a character and he’s also the narrator, being able to tell this beautiful yet tragic story,” Boehm said. “Every so often, I step away and speak directly to the audience.”

Elizabeth Jolly plays Jordan Baker.

“We read the book in my English class this year and I loved it so much I read it three times in a row,” Jolly said.

Elana Cutter is directing the play, which Simon Levy adapted from F. Scott Fitzgerald’s novel.

Neva River in St. Petersburg, Russia. (Photo by Don Knebel)

St. Petersburg: What’s in a name?

Commentary by Don Knebel St. Petersburg is one of the most beautiful cities in Europe. Its various names reflect Russian history. travel In 1703, 31-year-old Tsar Peter I founded a port on a marshy area at the eastern end of the Gulf of Finland that he had captured from Sweden.

The port, along the Neva River, gave Russia access to the Baltic Sea. To protect the port from a feared counter-attack, Peter built a fortress on an island in the Neva River that he named for Saints Peter and Paul. A city developed around the fortress, expanding onto other islands. Peter named his new city Sankt-Petersburg, a German formulation honoring St. Peter as patron. Having become fascinated with European culture and architecture during an 18-month visit to European capitals, Peter gave his city a distinctly European look, with classical façades and broad canals. Peter, known to history as Peter the Great, made St. Petersburg the capital of Russia in 1712.

In 1914, after war broke out with Germany, the city’s name was changed to the

Russian-sounding Petrograd, with Peter I now its patron. In 1924, after the Russian Revolution, the Bolsheviks renamed the city Leningrad. After the fall of Communism, the city regained its original name after a public vote in 1991.

Today, St. Petersburg is the secondlargest city in Russia, home to more than 5 million people. The historic area around the Peter and Paul Fortress is preserved as a UNESCO World Heritage site, with large buildings prohibited. St. Petersburg is home to at least 220 museums, including the one-of-a-kind Hermitage, and more than 2,000 libraries. Its many colorful churches include St. Issac’s, the third-largest domed cathedral in the world. Because of its network of canals and rivers, the city is one of several dubbed the “Venice of the North.”

St. Petersburg is not Moscow’s Russia.

Car cleaning tips — When washing your car at home, you may have trouble getting all those stubborn bugs off the front end. Try this: dampen the spot with a spray bottle first. Then, gently scrub the area with a dryer sheet until the bug comes off. If your car was recently waxed, you may need to touch up that spot.
