Zionsville Parks and Recreation Supt.

Jarod Logsdon is convinced the public will enjoy several amenities TOWN NEWS in the new Overley-Worman Park.

A ribbon-cutting ceremony, which is open to the public, is set for 9 a.m. May 20.

Overley-Worman Park is on 53 acres nestled between the Vonterra subdivision and Eagle Creek.

“A former clean-fill site, Overley-Worman Park has topography not common to Boone County and welcomes a lot of firsts to our park system,” Logsdon said. “The park features more than a mile of mountain bike trails that embrace the unique mounds of earth.”

Logsdon said the project was master planned in 2017 through a community engagement process to discover what the public wanted in the park. Construction began with a groundbreaking on March 8, 2021. It will be finished by the ribbon cutting. Logsdon said the park was built through a bond issue and cost just under $4 million.

A 200-foot pedestrian bridge will allow walkers and cyclists to enter the park from the Big-4 Rail Trail.

Zionsville’s Overley-Worman Park features dual playgrounds.

“The close proximity to the Big-4 Rail Trail is a great gateway to our park system from the south,” Logsdon said.

Logsdon said the course welcomes beginners and has options for cyclists who want to develop more technical skills.

The park also is home to Zionsville’s first disc golf course. The free 18-hole course meanders through the wooded trails along Eagle Creek.

In addition, Logsdon said the park features a 6-acre pond with two fishing piers, dual playgrounds for children up to age 12, and paved and natural trails.

“We tried to minimize our impact to the site, so the only clearing is where we needed to place trails,” Logsdon said.

Coffman tapped to become next ZCS superintendent

By Ann Marie Shambaugh AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com The Zionsville Community Schools board of trustees unanimously voted May 9 to formally EDUCATION launch a succession plan to install Associate Supt. Rebecca Coffman as the district’s top official when Supt. Scott Robison retires on Feb. 1, 2023.

Coffman Robison, who joined ZCS in 2006, said Coffman has many qualities that make her a good fit for the role.

“Becky Coffman has served as a ZCS teacher, assistant principal, principal, operations lead, assistant superintendent and associate superintendent,” Robison stated.

“She possesses high integrity, intellect, balance, substantial fortitude and the many other skills and dispositional traits required to be successful in this complex role.”

Coffman, a graduate of Butler University, joined ZCS in 2001 as a middle school science teacher and coach. She served as the Zionsville Middle School assistant principal from 2007 to 2012, when she was named

principal of Union Elementary. She has served as a school safety specialist and liaison with several Boone County safety agencies.

A Zionsville resident, Coffman and her husband have three children.

The district will hold a legally required public meeting at 6 p.m. June 2 at 900 Mulberry St. to gather public feedback on a proposed contract between Robison the board and Coffman.

The proposed contract runs from July 1 to June 30, 2025, and covers Coffman’s role as superintendent successor and superintendent. Her proposed annual salary is $157,805 when the contract begins and jumps to $175,000 upon Robison’s retirement, with a potential for annual 3 percent increases based on performance.

The proposed contract also includes $7,000 per year as a travel allowance, health insurance, reimbursement for internet service costs and other benefits.

The board is expected to vote on the proposed contract during a public meeting set for 6 p.m. June 13.

Barns and Brews to benefit Maplelawn Farmstead

By Chris Bavender news@currentzionsville.com The Zionsville Parks and Recreation Dept. will host Barns and Brews May 19 and June 2, 16 and 30 at MapleFUNDRAISER lawn Farmstead, 9575 Whitestown Rd. The fundraising event for those 21 and older will highlight a different speaker and local brewery each evening. This is the second year for the event.

“Last year, the parks department began to explore programming that engaged community members of all ages and demographics. We dove deep into the interests and hobbies of each age range and saw the opportunity for a lecture series that was tailored toward adults,” said Jarod Logsdon, superintendent of Zionsville’s parks and recreation department. “At this same time we began conversations with Maplelawn Farmstead, who are not only our neighbors at Mulberry Fields, but also our long-term tenants. The 501c3 was receptive to partnering, and somewhere along the line the idea for local breweries paired with local ecology was born.”

Barns and Brews is a fundraising partnership with Maplelawn Farmstead. Revenue from ticket sales is donated to maintain and promote the Depression-era farmstead.

“You can imagine the wear and tear these buildings have seen over the past 100 years,” Logsdon said.

The topics were selected based on a survey the parks department sent out to last year’s event participants.

“There was a large interest in history and native plants, as well as they enjoyed the information on our native animals and wanted us to highlight other species,” said

Mindy Murdock, Zionsville’s director of recreation services. “Speakers were then selected based on their experiences and availability. Traders Brewing joined us for the inaugural year, and we are excited to have them back this year. We then reached out to local breweries and businesses who had a connection to Zionsville to fill the remaining spots.”

Scheduled topics and beers are: May 19 • Indiana Native Plants with Indiana Wildlife Federation • Beer selections from Traders Brewing Co. June 2 • History of Indiana Beer Before and After Prohibition • Beer selections from Books and Brews June 16 • Native Hoosier Predators with the Zionsville Nature Center • Beer selections from Moontown Brewery June 30 (rescheduled from May 5) • History of Indiana Barns with Kent Yeager, president of the Indiana Barn Foundation • Beer selections from Indy Brew Bus Tickets are $14.50 and includes the first round of drinks. Prices vary for each brewery but Murdock said additional rounds will fall between $5 to $7. Attendees can purchase up to two additional drinks (there is a three drink limit).

“Participants are also welcome to pack a picnic to enjoy on the lawn or snacks,” she said. “Outside beverages are not allowed.”

ZCHS grad shares painful journey to cure in book

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com During Sarah Johnson’s freshman year at Ball State University, she began having bizarre symptoms after eating.

AUTHOR “At first it felt much like I was coming down with the flu,” the 1995 Zionsville Community High School graduate said. “Within 20 minutes of eating a meal, I experienced waves of nausea, clamminess, an immediate need to rest, Johnson often leaving me incapacitated. After a couple of hours, my symptoms would vanish. Over time, my symptoms got worse, and I developed intense pain just below my breastbone. The symptoms became both longer in duration and more frequent, forcing me to seek medical attention.

“I began to fear eating and as a result, my weight started to plummet, as did my energy, nutrition and overall health.”

It took 23 years for Johnson to be diagnosed with superior mesenteric artery syndrome. She was diagnosed in the spring of 2018 after a physical therapist’s suggestion to see a vascular doctor. The New Palestine resident, whose family goes back five generations in Zionsville, wrote a book about her survival story called “A Devil Inside of Me: Finding Jesus in a Life of Struggle.”

After searching for the Midwest for a surgeon who could perform a duodenojejunostomy procedure to cure her disorder, she found Dr. Joseph J. Pavlik in Indianapolis. At the time of her operation in September 2019, she said her weight had dropped to a low of 115 pounds.

“I was desperately thin and weak from not eating,” she said.

Johnson, 45, said after a lifesaving surgery, she knew that she wanted to help others through her experience.

“Ultimately, I wanted to write the very book that I wish I’d been able to find when I was really struggling,” Johnson said. “There are so many people in the world facing all kinds of tough circumstances. I wanted to be a source of hope for anyone that might find my story inspirational.”

Johnson’s book is available on amazon. com.

ZCHS pitcher’s competitive fire translates into success

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Zionsville Community High School senior right-hander Drew Dickson’s fastball has been clocked at 91 mph.

However, speed is not the Northwestern University-bound pitcher’s biggest strength.

“My biggest strength on the mound is probably a coin flip between the ability to spin breaking balls and my competitiveness,” Dickson said. “I was recruited heavily because of my ability to spin two distinct breaking pitches, a curveball and a slider, and command them very well. One thing that stands out is that the spin rate (revolutions per minute) is very high, around 3,000, which makes them break tighter and closer to the plate. My competitiveness is arguably more important, though. When the game gets bigger and pressure rises, so does my ability.

“I have had a lot of success in big situations and leaving runners on in tight games.

The mental toughness I have is what allows me to compete at a high level.”

The 6-foot-3 Dickson said he has made

Favorite athletes: Max Scherzer, Manny Machado Favorite movie: “The Wolf of Wall Street” Favorite musical artist: Drake the most improvement this season in learning pitch sequencing and execution.

Dickson said it helps that the Eagles have an experienced and knowledgable pitching coach in Drew Storen, who pitched eight Major League Baseball seasons after a standout career at Brownsburg High School and Stanford University.

“(Storen) has helped me tremendously in the mental game of pitching, learning what to throw when, and where to throw it as well,” Dickson said. “I have also made some big strides in leadership. Last year, we had two vocal leaders and they both graduated, so it was my turn to step up and assume

that role, and the coaching staff has let me know how impactful my leadership has been.”

As of May 10, Dickson had a 2-1 record with a 1.30 earned run average and 46 strikeouts in 31 innings. He was 7-0 with a 1.46 ERA in 2021.

“He has a bulldog mentality on the mound,” Eagles coach Jered Moore said.

“He’s probably one of the smartest baseball players I’ve ever coached.”

Dickson said he tried to hit last season but didn’t have much success.

“We had a pretty talented lineup last season, and I didn’t make the most of the few opportunities I got,” he said. “I am not hitting next year at Northwestern, so I felt it was more important to devote my time to pitching this year, so I didn’t work on hitting really at all until the midway point in our season. “ “Thankfully, it has helped quite a bit and I have gotten off to a pretty fast start.”

As of May 10, Dickson was hitting .417.

Dickson, who played three seasons for the Indiana Bulls travel team, plans to major in economics and minor in software engineering.

Dress for WFH success Commentary by Stephanie Grabow Are you in the work-from-home forever club? If there’s one thing the last two-plus years have shown us, it’s VIEWPOINT that you don’t have to be in a corporate office to make your impact on the world.

I decided to work from home beginning in 2008 — the first six years for an international organization and the past nine years for my own small business, so you’re in good company.

Did you know there is science around how the clothes that you wear for WFH impact your brain activity and productivity?

Through “enclothed cognition” research, scientists study the link between what you wear and how it affects your brain function, emotions and productivity.

It turns out that when you dress for work and Zoom calls, you’re signaling to your brain that it’s time to focus on the task at hand. The right clothes can improve your self-esteem and give you the confidence to nail your presentation on Zoom and go after your dream client.

Wearing your sweatpants and hoodie can confuse your brain, because it’s thinking it’s time to relax and you’re pushing back with punch lists and performance reviews.

No wonder you feel unmotivated.

Dressing for WFH doesn’t mean that you have to pull out your most uncomfortable pants. It means wearing something on the top of your body in one of your best colors.

That gorgeous color will give you energy, enhance your facial features and help you glow from the inside out. Trust me, that beautiful glow comes through on the Zoom screen.

And here’s a pro tip: Staring at your face in your “wow” color on a Zoom call will also impact the way you feel.

On the bottom, put on jeans with lots of Lycra, or an elastic waist pant. Something comfy, but not sloppy.

And on your feet? Do what feels good.

Your fuzzy slippers are calling.

As its name implies, the game of golf is the centerpiece of Wood Wind Golf Course.

But it’s not the only attracGROWTH tion at the public course at 2302 W. 161st St., Westfield.

Recent additions to the course include a beer garden, pickleball courts, live music and a pavilion.

Colin O’Neal said most of Colin O’Neal the changes were made because of new neighborhoods surrounding the golf course. Cohoat & O’Neal Management manages the public golf course. Four neighborhoods are part of the Wood Wind HOA: Wood Wind North, Wood Wind South, Westchester and Bent Creek.

“A lot of this was generated because there was development around the golf course,” Colin O’Neal said. “Because of those neighborhoods being developed, the golf

course owner Matt Cohoat felt it was a great idea to provide them more of an outlet to become involved at the club or use this golf course as a community asset.”

The beer garden, sponsored by Oasis Outdoor Living and Landscape, opened in 2021 and has fire pits and lawn games such as giant Jenga and Connect 4. Because of the amenities, Colin O’Neal said the course often hosts corporate retreats.

Two pickleball courts west of the clubhouse opened in spring 2021.

The four neighborhoods in Wood Wind’s HOA incorporate membership dues Doc O’Neal into the HOA dues, but social memberships are available as well.

O’Neal said Wood Wind Golf Course is Westfield’s only public golf course.

Besides the new amenities, Wood Wind Golf Course also features four new holes on the 18-hole course. Hole Nos. 8 and 9 opened last year. They are the only two holes north of the main clubhouse. The other two holes, Nos. 5 and 17, are a par 4s.

grown to 30,000 square feet, but Rahal said continued growth has left it “busting at every seam possible.”

Wayne DeLong, Zionsville’s director of planning and economic development, said his department has been working with Rahal since 2020 but that the first two of the first potential sites identified for GRP didn’t work out.

Since deciding to relocate his business, Rahal said the goal has always been to end up in Zionsville.

“We’ve had our eyes on the Creekside property for about 18 months. In that time frame, we had other opportunities arise that we considered, but our top desire has always been the lots in Creekside,” Graham Rahal said. “We’ve worked with both the administration and council to push forward, and I’m very grateful as a resident of Zionsville of the measures they take to be sure new businesses that put roots down in the town will be a great match for the communities needs and desires.”

Now that GRP and the ZRDC have entered formal negotiations, the next step is for the ZRDC to vote on a term sheet. If GRP receives the required town approvals, Graham Rahal said he hopes to have the project completed within 18 months.

GROWING INTEREST Lids, which has since been replaced by Group 1001, became Creekside Corporate Park’s first tenant in 2016, followed the next year by D.K. Pierce. For several years, development of the park remained quiet until Rahal Letterman Lanigan Racing announced plans to invest more than $20 million to build its headquarters there. That facility is expected to be complete this summer.

Zionsville Mayor Emily Styron, who took office in 2020, said she was perplexed by the lack of interest in the park in the late 2010s and made it a priority to boost interest in the area.

“I didn’t understand how, when so much activity was happening on an economic development level in other areas of central Indiana, we weren’t bringing them to Zionsville,” she said. “So, it was a real focus.”

Zionsville’s director of planning and economic development Wayne DeLong said emerging from the COVID-19 pandemic, combined with Styron’s efforts, are among the reasons for increased interest.

“This economic development work takes a long time,” DeLong said. “This is the pinnacle moment where we’re getting to enjoy the fruits of our efforts that got some brand-new fertilizer in 2020.”

Styron said RLL’s move to Creekside has led to other economic benefits for the town, as one of the team’s sponsors, Hy-Vee, announced in January that it would build its first Indiana grocery store in Zionsville.

ESSAY

HUMOR

I follow rewards

Plagued by bad timing

Commentary by Terry Anker

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

The emails flow in, demanding that we must act fast lest the benefits we earned by customer loyalty will expire.

Do we intend to abandon our effort?

Was it easy to stand in line at the favored merchant when there was no line at another? We’ve paid a few cents more to stay loyal to the vendor that incessantly reminds us of their appreciation of our commitment, so shouldn’t we reap the promised profit?

Since the beginning of the human experience, we have come to know that it is good to have friends. In fact, it is imperative. Killing a mastodon by oneself is a bit more difficult than the almost impossible task of doing it in a group. So, shouldn’t our dedication to the people who fly our planes, make our pizzas, fit our shoes and prepare our deli sandwiches bring some reciprocal value?

A Seinfeld episode, “The Strike,” explored our obsession with fully stamped loyalty cards as Elaine gives hers away accidentally and spends days attempting to regain it. Sure, a free pastrami on rye is good, but how good? Is its care and feeding of greater value than the card itself?

Whether it is United’s PlusPoints or Microsoft’s Rewards, who is benefiting from the effort? How many of us have seen an incentive bestowed? How much do the providers really want us to be rewarded? Like some grotesque P.T. Barnum, they seem to gloat that there is a “sucker born every minute” and that they are only too happy to take advantage. Are we playing the fool? Set up like the adult version of a corrupt carnival game, they promise big and then fortify against paying out. A few giant stuffed animals are paraded around the fairgrounds to get people motivated, but can we win one ourselves?

Son of a biscuit. I have COVID-19. I know! I made it more than two years of the pandemic surrounded by germy teenagers with nary a sniffle and yet, here I am. Moaning and groaning on my couch, pounding Advil-Schwepps cocktails, and wondering what the heck happened. I’m vaccinated and boosted and, apart from my stupid shoulder and occasional incontinence, basically invincible. This wasn’t in my spring 2022 script!

And now I’m missing all sorts of big stuff — my oldest’s graduation, my youngest’s prom and my 36th eighthgrade reunion, which I was super pumped about. We only graduated with 18 kids in our class, and most I haven’t seen since the late ’80s. Does Kelly still have bangs? What happened to Creighton and Jonathan and Jenny D? Who remembers the boys urinating on the side of the second-grade classroom that one day during recess? Good times.

My quarantine is also occurring during the last month of school, which any educator will tell you are the absolute worst weeks to be gone. Final projects, make-up work and end-of-theyear paraphernalia don’t always proceed smoothly when I’m there, let alone with substitutes. Ugh! Who did this to me?

Probably a student, but maybe someone from my scuba class. I was, after all, sharing respirator spit with a veritable stranger for several hours. Or more likely, it was the universe, recognizing that if I wasn’t going to clear my over-scheduled and anxiety-provoking May calendar, she certainly would. The mystery will probably never be solved, and I suppose in the end, it doesn’t really matter My name is Danielle, and I have COVID-19. Son of a biscuit.

Peace out.

Run, book promote hope

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Bryan and Janice Langford have sought to draw positives from every parent’s worst nightmare.

At age 23, their son, FUNDRAISER Justin, lost his life as a result of an accident while driving his flatbed truck during performance-calibration activities for his employer, Allison Transmission, in Flagstaff, Ariz., in May 2014.

The Langfords created Justin’s Run4Hope to raise money for the Justin David Langford Memorial Fund, which awards scholarships to students from Justin’s alma maters, Vanderbilt University and Zionsville Community High School.

The seventh annual Justin’s Run4Hope, a run/walk event, is set for 9 a.m. May 21 at New Hope Christian Church, 5780 S. Main St., Whitestown. There is a 3.6-mile run, a 1-mile race and kids’ events. The last in-person run was in 2019. It was held virtually in 2020 and 2021 amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

“Fortunately, we had strong donations and support,” Bryan said.

Bryan, Janice and their son, Kyle, recently wrote a book with Kelsi Buckley, who was Justin’s long-term girlfriend, on finding hope in the tragedy. The book is called “Beauty and Hope from the Ashes.”

“It basically takes you through chronologically from the time we received that phone call that no parent wants to receive, all the way through our experiences with multiple events throughout that recount how people gave us hope, how God worked in people’s lives to step up and help us through those moments,” Bryan said.

The book, which also encourages organ donation, because Justin was an organ donor, includes chapters by Kyle and Buckley, contributions from organ recipient families

and community friend Don Lamb.

“Writing the book was cathartic, it was emotional, but we’re hoping it can help others through a difficult time,” Janice said.

Bryan, who retired from Roche and is an associate minister at New Hope Christian Church, said it was Janice’s idea to write the book and they began three years ago.

The family keeps in touch with three of Justin’s many organ recipients. Justin was a strong proponent of organ donation.

“We’ve met three and they are all doing well,” Bryan said. “We’ve met Fernando and heard Justin’s heart beating in him. He’s sent us pictures of playing with his son, taking his daughter to the prom and working on cars with his son.”

The fund supplies $1,000 scholarships for ZCHS seniors who are pursuing a career in STEM. There is an endowed scholarship for Vanderbilt University engineering students, which covers almost half the tuition for four years.

Chemisty helps Roughouse develop as a band

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com For Randy Schumacher, there is a reason why Roughouse clicks as a band.

“We have great chemisMUSIC try and great friendships,” Schumacher said. “That’s really important to this band. When we went looking for a bass guitarist, it was important for find someone who fit it. The bass guitarist has changed a number of times. We had one bass guitarist who exploded in the middle of practice. We played the wrong song and he spontaneously combusted. He packed up his stuff and stormed out. The friendships and laughter (are) amazing.”

Schumacher, an architect by day and guitarist by night, said he remembers a tipsy musician in the Slippery Noodle audience one night who said he liked the band because it played like a team.

“He said it like three times,” said Schumacher, who previously lived in Noblesville but now lives in Carmel. “But he was right, we really do.”

Drummer A.J. DeRose, who basically serves as a team manager, said the band started as a few friends jamming in his Noblesville basement, where it still practices.

“We got to together and played some songs,” DeRose said. “We had some musicians rotating in and out. It was real loose.

Somewhere along the way, we wanted to do more than play in a basement.”

DeRose’s wife, Molly, was in another band but joined her husband’s band three years ago. From there, it took off. Molly’s sister, Emily Di Rosa, also a Noblesville resident, joined as a second vocalist. Emily and her husband, Matteo Di Rosa, opened Matteo’s Ristorante Italiano in 2003 in Noblesville.

Kelli Ray Yates, a Carmel High School graduate who now lives in Noblesville, recently joined as a third vocalist.

“We’ve ended up now with a solid lineup that I don’t think is going to change,” DeRose said. “There are times when we contract a little bit because of people’s travel schedules.”

plays bass guitar. He said the band has fun but practices seriously.

“All of us have interesting backgrounds,” DeRose said. “I played in several alternative rock and classic rock bands. We’re doing classical rock, but we also do bluesy stuff.”

DeRose said Corner and Erik Harlow, a guitarist and Noblesville resident, also have backgrounds playing the blues.

“It’s been catching on. A number of pieces on the classic rock side get people up dancing,” DeRose said.

Molly and Emily have musical backgrounds having been in show choir at Pike High School in Indianapolis.

“Our mom is a musician,” Molly said.

“She used to write commercial jingles for TV and radio. We grew up around music and in the studio. We’ve been singing together forever.”

Yates is a singer-songwriter who performed solo acoustic sets.

“We asked Kelli to join a year ago and our voices blend well,” Molly said. “We all have jobs and families. We do this because we all love to do it. You make a little money, of course, but, for the most part, you

do it because you love to do it.”

Roughouse is playing different venues such as Ale Emporium and Wolfies Geist, along with some outdoor events. Roughouse will play July 7 at Dillion Park as part of the Thursday night concert series and will play July 22 at Daniel’s Vineyard’s concert series in McCordsville.

“We have a private show at the Palladium (in Carmel) we’re excited about,” DeRose said. “We doubled the amount of shows we had on the books from last year. We do all covers. That’s the market and the target we’re going have. When folks want to hear a bar band, they want to hear their songs done well. We pick songs that feature our strengths and roll with it.”

Schumacher said the band is earning respect.

“We’re competing for gigs with bands that have been together eight or nine years,” Schumacher said.

DeRose said the band will play at Federal Hill Commons in Noblesville for the third consecutive summer.

Three members of the Larsen family from Zionsville are in the show, set for May 20-22 at the Marian Daniel University Theatre in Indianapolis. “Newsies” is loosely based on the true story of the newsboys strike of 1899 in New York City The performing Larsen siblings, who are homeschooled, are Daniel, 13; Kate, 11; and Millie, 9 Daniel, an eighth-grader, plays one of the Delancey brothers, who are tough newsboys.

“I did this because my sisters were doing it,” he said. “I have to learn the theater terms like stage right and stage left and blocking. I had to learn to do a fight scene because the Delancey brothers are in a

fight.”

Millie, a third-grader, and Kate, a sixth-grader, are members of the newsies.

“I like dancing and it’s fun to do all the costumes as well,” Millie said.

Kate performed in CYT’s production of “Annie” in November 2021.

“It was a really fun experience,” Kate said. “I really like the singing and dancing (in ’Newsies’).”

Kate said she knew the Kate story about “Newsies” because her older sister, Beth, was in the Zionsville Community High School production in 2019.

Jenny Larsen, a mother of eight, said it’s nice to have an activity that all three siblings who are in the show can enjoy together.

Millie “Newsies” marks the final CYT performances for four graduating seniors, including Carmel’s Grace Kubek, who has appeared in 12 previous CYT productions.

The performances are at 7 p.m.. May 20, 2 and 7 p.m. May 21 and 2 p.m. May 22. For more, visit cytindy.org.

Discovering Broadway event set

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Kelly Krauter’s favorite thing about being a theater performer is getting to be a part of a develCONCERT opmental project.

The 2010 Carmel High School graduate will get that opportunity by participating in a concert presented by Discovering Krauter Broadway, which was founded by 2012 CHS graduate Joel Kirk.

The concert, which is set for 8 p.m. May 21 at The Cabaret, 924 N. Pennsylvania St., Indianapolis, will be near the end of a writers’ retreat in Carmel. Zack Zadek and Sammi Cannold have created a yet-to-be-titled musical about teenagers overcoming addiction.

“It’s so exciting and invigorating to be involved in the process from the beginning stages and getting to work alongside the creatives to breathe life into the characters they’ve written and put your own personal stamp on how they are portrayed is truly a gift and, in my opinion, the most fun a

stage actor can have,” Krauter said.

Krauter performed in Discovering Broadway’s 2021 presentation of “Hamlet The Musical.”

“It was such a fun and exciting process and I believe Discovering Broadway is really making their mark as a new hub in the developmental theater scene,” Krauter said.

Krauter is joined in the concert by fellow CHS graduates Carolyn Keller (2013) Keller and Ian Bossung (2015).

“I’ve listened to a few other pieces the composer has brilliantly created, and I am very excited to hear what we’ll be performing,” Keller said. “I love working on projects in the developmental stage. It’s really fun to originate a character with the insight of the writers.”

Keller helped record a few songs for a Discovering Broadway project, ‘Hamlet.’

“But this is my first time coming back home for a Discovering Broadway project and I am really looking forward to it,” Keller said.

You’ll flip over these words Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt If I started to tell you about something called “ambigram,” you might think it’s one of two things: Either a new graham cracker that doubles GRAMMAR GUY as a sleep aid or a new social media platform for people who can use both hands equally well. In fact, an ambigram is neither of those things. Let’s figure out what it is!

Unlike a palindrome such as “racecar,” where the letters are the same if the word is reversed, an ambigram is a word that can be read as the same word from different angles. Other names used for ambigrams include vertical palindromes, designatures and inversions. For today’s lesson, I’d like to discuss my favorite type of ambigram, the “natural rotational” ambigram.

For this to make sense, let’s start with an example. The word “dollop” (with a lowercase “d”) is a great example. If you rotate the word “dollop” 180 degrees, it reads “dollop.” That’s cool! What are some other natural rotational ambigrams?

As we’ll soon see, this depends on the typeface you’re using. But you’re smart enough to turn your head (or newspaper or computer monitor) around to make sense of these examples: pod, mow, swims, solos, passed, paled and seas.

Pretty soon you’ll be dizzy from flipping words around in search of ambigrams.

Do you want to turn some more words on their heads? A “symbiotogram” takes one word when written regularly and becomes a different word when turned at an angle. Again, today we’ll turn the words 180 degrees, which is the most common way people encounter symbiotograms.

Let’s share some examples. Take the word “wow”: when you rotate it 180 degrees, it becomes “mom.” That’s a symbiotogram. Others include deal/leap, sail/lies, sled/pals, dooms/swoop and pies/said.
