A special camp for kids with cancer

By Devynn Barnes • news@currentzionsville.com

Summer camp is a joy of childhood that brings fond memories to many people across Indiana. Camp Little Red Door in Martinsville, promises more than just fun times and good memories to particicharity pants however; it offers the chance for Indiana children with cancer or those in remission to escape their everyday lives and focus on fun instead of illness.

Camp Little Red Door is a program created by the Little Red Door Cancer Agency of Indianapolis. It takes place in Bradford Woods, just 30 minutes south of downtown, and is in Indiana’s oldest camp for kids with cancer. Kids of all ages can participate in different one-week sessions during the summer, and enjoy swimming, horseback riding, archery, fishing and much more.

According to Zina Kumok, the Little Red Door Cancer Agency media and communication coordinator, the benefits of sharing in these activities with other kids going through similar hardships are endless.

“There are lots of summer camps kids can go to, but there are few where children with cancer can attend and feel normal,” Kumok said. “We hear of so many kids who are glad to go somewhere and have people who understand what they are going through.”

This year, three children from Zionsville will be attending camp, including James and Kyle Lehman.

James is 12 years old and is in remission from leukemia. His brother will accompany him to camp this year for the first time.

Terri Lehman, mother of the two boys, said she

heard about the camp through the family’s oncology clinic and has had great experiences ever since.

“It is a wonderful camp experience, where James can meet other kids that have gone through similar struggles with cancer,” Lehman said.

Thanks to fundraisers, grants and community support throughout the year, the cost for a child to attend camp is only $25. According to Kumok, the small cost makes a big impact on the kids who get to attend.

“We have kids that go every year until they age out and so many want to come back and be counselors.

It’s amazing to see how five days can change their lives,” Kumok said.

More information about Camp Little Red Door and the Little Red Door Cancer Agency can be found by visiting www.littlereddoor.org, or by calling 925-5595.

Driving clinic – Miles Ahead Driving School, of Indianapolis, is hosting a teen driving clinic at 4:30 p.m., July 11 at Northview Church in Carmel.

Survey crews are in the area of Zionsville to locate sanitary sewers in preparation for a pipe replacement project later this year by Vectren Energy Delivery. According to a press release from town hall, Zionsville residents will notice work going on throughout the village area as surveyors locate and televise the existing sanitary sewer system. This includes the private lateral lines running from each home and business within the project area. A general description of the project can be seen by visiting www.vectren.com. The actual replacement of the old, steel gas lines will not occur until August, but this preliminary phase is necessary to identify the locations and depths of all underground sanitary sewer lines to avoid conflicts and damage during construction. More information can be found by visiting www.currentzionsville.com.

The Zionsville Lions Club has started its annual free concert series in the park. This year’s theme is “The Golden Era of American Music.” To view a full list of who is performing, visit www. currentzionsville.com.

Backpack Attack has needs

By Sophie Pappas sophie@youarecurrent.com

The school year may seem to have just finished, but students and teachers around the state are already gearing up for the fall. Every year, United Way of Central Indiana in Boone County organizes a month-long school supply drive in Zionsville, Lebanon and Western Boone school districts to help underprivileged kids. They then gather all the supplies and use them to stuff more than 1,400 backpacks.

These backpacks full of supplies are then given away at a big festival called Backpack Attack on the first Saturday in August to help kids across Boone County get prepared and excited for the coming school year.

Zionsville residents are encouraged to join in on an Alpha Leos scavenger hunt to help donate school supplies.

To sign up for the scavenger hunt, visit Akard True Value Hardware in Boone Village.

ITEMS NEEDED: Wide-ruled notebooks, scissors, eraser caps,colored pencils, pocket folders, washable markers, glue sticks, loose-leaf paper, index cards, No. 2 pencils

Zionsville residents are encouraged to drop off backpacks and school supplies inside local businesses, such as this one inside F.C. Tucker on First Street. Another nearby drop-off location is Akard True Value Hardware in Boone Village. (Photo by Sophie Pappas)

Facts 1. More than 2,500 children in Boone County live in foodinsecure homes. That means they do not know where their next meal is coming from.

2. Last year, 85 percent of the students who received backpacks and supplies reported that they were on free and reduced lunch services at school because they cannot afford school lunch. This number is rising.

3. This year, United Way is donating 200 more backpacks than last year, for a grand total of 1,400 backpacks filled with countless school supplies. United Way expects to see more 4,000 students and their families at the Backpack Attack festival and receive the support provided by the other resources there, like free haircuts, free books for all ages, and free passes to the YMCA for child care.

Committee talks downtown study

By Sophie Pappas • sophie@youarecurrent.com

During a meeting last month of the Zionsville Downtown Market Study and Parking Analysis Steering Committee, the development group discussed recent changes in the market study and parking analysis, compiled by TADI, a Chicago-based firm, and Business Districts, Inc. According to Town Manager Ed Mitro, while changes to the study have been written, the town council must invoke amendments to the town’s master plan as a result of the downtown study. Mitro said the goal is for the study and parking analysis to be used for future marketing efforts by the Zionsville Chamber of Commerce and town hall.

“Ultimately the council at a regular scheduled meeting will have the final say,” Mitro said.

Committee members offered their opinions on the several changes TADI and BDI have made this year.

“Overall I thought it was excellent. I had very few minor questions or suggestions,” said committeeman Charlie Edwards.

“They’ve incorporated most everything that we said,” Mitro said.

Four initial recommendations have been identified by TADI and BDI for implementation in the town during the next two years. The first and foremost is that the town, its partner organizations, and residents must begin to collaborate,

avoid duplicative efforts and must focus on downtown’s future.

The study states that the town and its residents need to learn how to “advocate for the village.”

According to committeeman and small business owner Robert Goodman, this means there needs to be more unity amongst town officials and business owners.

“We need to get on the same page,” Goodman said. “We’ve got the same goal in mind and you can’t always be a total obstructionist…We need to learn to work together.”

Mitro replied that this is the premise of the study.

“This whole exercise isn’t going to work if we don’t get along,” Mitro said.

XPECT EXCELLENCE.

“I wanted to be able to walk in the park with my grandson again.”

When I knew I was going to have knee replacement surgery, I wanted to have all my plans finalized in advance. That’s why I checked in to Westminster Village North for post-surgery rehabilitation. My brand new private rehab suite was like I was staying in a nice hotel with friendly and helpful staff.

And the physical therapists are amazing.

The new state-of-the-art equipment helped me get back on my feet quickly.

Olivera said that in-home pet sitting is a great alternative to the often times stress-inducing pet boarding environments. She said she strives to “minimize stress and maximize affection,” and it is a particularly good option for pets who may be anxious away from home or around other animals.

“While not all pets handle boarding with a stressbased response, many do,” Olivera said. “The most rewarding part of our pet care experience thus far is being able to see pets in the environment that provides the most comfort, (at) home.”

The tree: finding balance, focus Commentary by Sally Brown Bassett It is important as we get older that we continue to find ways to strengthen our sense of balance. There is no other yoga pose better to have fun health with than tree pose. You can do this at the kitchen counter looking out the window. To do any balance pose, you need to fix your eyes on something and continue the focus throughout the duration of holding it. It is recommended to breathe steady for five breaths once you are in the pose.

Start by standing tall with your feet grounded into the earth at a hip’s distance apart. You can use the wall for support … or the kitchen counter. Open the right knee out to the side. Place the foot of the right leg on the inside of the left leg either above or below the knee (not on the knee). Try to keep the hips level and pelvic neutral. Now lift the arms above your head in a clasp position or in a big V. Your head is level and your breath is steady. Release slowly and do the other leg.

The tree or in Sanskrit, Vrksasana, is a pose that also tones the leg muscles and strengthens the core. It gives one a sense of balance and focuses the mind. The lower body provides the support for the upper body as the body stands with grace and strength. Won’t you be a tree today? Until next week… Namaste!

Yoga teacher Sally Bassett strikes the tree pose. (Submitted photo)

Blast from the past: ZCHS all-class reunion

Next week, Zionsville graduates from around the state will gather for the Zionsville Community High School Alumni AssociapLAIN tALK tion’s All Class Reunion. It will be from 7 p.m. to midnight, July 19 inside the Palomino Ballroom.

Chairwoman for the event Martha Wharry Farley, who graduated from ZCHS in 1984, took over the role of reunion chair for this year’s reunion, which takes place every three years.

Farley said that in 2011 more than 800 alumni attended.

“It’s been a really well attended event,” she said. “And right now we’re just trying Farley to get the word out and let people know about it. But we are hoping for at least 800.”

Farley and her committee have arranged for a DJ, photo booth, heavy appetizers and a cash bar.

The greatest inventions

Commentary by Ward Degler

To be clear, the greatest invention of all time is the drywall lift. No contest. This gangly contraption makes it possible to pLAIN tALK align a full sheet of drywall precisely where you want it on the ceiling without breaking a sweat or – more importantly – the sheet of drywall.

To be fair, there are other inventions that have simplified life and made klutzes like me look good.

At the top of that list is the USB connector.

The Universal Service Bus came out of the mad world of electronics in the 1990s. Overnight, computer desks around the world were magically neat and tidy.

For the first time ever, a single cable replaced the huge bundle of squirming wires with ponderous multi-pin connectors that nestled behind every computer and printer, and made every office look like a snake pit.

The zipper is another invention I like. It was created in 1893 by Whitcomb L. Judson. Despite its early success, however, many clothing makers rejected it in favor of buttons. This included Levi Strauss who didn’t install zippers in their jeans until 1954, and only then because people living on the East Coast claimed (I’m not making this up) they couldn’t figure out how to button a fly.

Let’s not forget paper clips. Manufactured almost exclusively by the Gem Manufacturing Co., since the 1870s, these twisted wire devices were

first designed and patented by Samuel B. Fay in 1867 as a means of attaching tickets to clothing.

Interestingly, the Gem version of the paper clip has never been patented.

It wouldn’t be fair to talk about paper clips without mentioning staples, which emerged about the same time as paper clips. I prefer staples because paper clips tend to come loose when shoved into a file folder. And I have a lot of file folders.

Besides, staples deserve extra points because before anyone could staple anything, someone had to invent the stapler. That honor went to Albert Kletzker of St. Louis in 1868.

Finally, there is Velcro. This gee-whiz invention came to life one day in 1941 when Swiss electrical engineer George de Mestral came home from a walk in the woods with his dog, and both of them were covered with burrs. The burrs, he noticed, consisted of tiny hooks that grabbed onto fabric and fur. For the next 14 years Mssr.

Mestral labored to duplicate nature’s creation. He was finally granted a patent for Velcro in 1955.

Great inventions but trust me, none of them will ever replace the drywall lift. And, oh yeah, for us Midwesterners, Levi 501 jeans still have a button fly.

“Joseph had cerebral palsy, he was non-verbal, and he had heart problems,” said Vivian Maley, the mother of Joseph Maley and the founder of the Joseph Maley Foundation. “When he passed away six years ago at 18, he functioned as a 32-month-old. But he was so good, so sweet.”

Joseph Maley Foundation 5k highlights Zionsville family

By Sophie Pappas • sophie@youarecurrent.com

Joseph Maley would be 24 years old this week, had he not succumbed to a lifetime of illnesses and a final round of leufundraiser kemia. But for his mother, Vivian Maley, of Zionsville, Joseph’s legacy lives on through her work at the foundation she started in his honor, the Joseph Maley Foundation.

“Joseph was born with disabilities,” Vivian said. “His brother Tony, my second child, had a desire for us to teach his friends about Joseph.”

This led to Vivian starting small disability awareness groups in local schools.

“Joseph had cerebral palsy, he was non-verbal, and he had heart problems,” Vivian said. “When he passed away six years ago he functioned as a 32-month-old. But he was so good, so sweet.”

Because Joseph looked and acted different from his four younger brothers, Vivian was compelled to teach other children how to interact with him and her family.

“All of a sudden we had this ever-evolving program,” she said. “We certainly didn’t know it was grow like it has.”

For six years now, Vivian has steered the direction of the foundation and watched it grow from a tiny in-home group to a staff of more than nine people, with events like the upcoming Joseph Maley 5k.

“Our mission is serving children with disabilities but our program are so cohesive and really touch on so much more than just that,” Vivian said.

This year’s 5k will be on July 12, and is the first year that runners and walkers will be downtown at the Indiana University- Purdue University Michael A. Carroll Stadium Track.

“In the past we held it at Eagle Creek which was great but then we had more than 700 people last year so we really outgrew that space,” she said.

The Joseph Maley Foundation 5k starts at 8:30 a.m. July 12 inside the Indiana University- Purdue University Michael A. Carroll Stadium Track. To register visit www.josephmaley.org/5k.

Country Market’s Produce Fest offers more than corn on the cob

by Zach Manges • news@currentzionsville.com In the midst of a sizzling summer, those on the prowl for deliciously healthy attractions don’t have to look far. Zionsville cover story has a plethora of offerings for fresh produce in the next couple of months that shouldn’t be missed.

Among them is the tucked-away Country Market and Lunch Room on Michigan Road, which is bringing back its Produce Fest this summer after seven years, offering local sweetcorn, tomatoes, and much more beginning in July and running until the “fresh” season ends.

“It’s going to be a nice coming back and reopening of a fresh produce stand at the Country Market,” said Lori Bankert, co-owner of Country Market. “It’s nice to see people appreciate the work of farming and how it produces something really wonderful. It’s a good product: good for people, and good for the community.”

A fresh start

Country Market was born a little more than two decades ago when the Bankert family gave up the corporate world with the hope of creating a business to distribute fresh, locally grown produce to the community. Though the idea had originated as a side project, it grew over the years into the successful restaurant most patrons will know it as today, along with a variety of seasonal offerings including the summer and fall produce.

“The market started as an indoor produce stand. We had it year-round along with a deli,” Bankert said. “The traffic wasn’t heavy enough then and we didn’t have enough people coming through to sustain those perishables. What took off was the deli.”

Despite this alteration in the original vision for the market, fresh produce has remained important to the Bankerts. The family-friendly atmosphere of the produce stand is one they’ve found to have numerous benefits beyond its worth as a viable business. Growing up in such an environment provides opportunities to learn about crop growth and develop a lifelong work ethic.

“We love doing it as a family, and there’s nothing better than fresh produce to feed your family. You get to go back and eat right out of your garden,” Bankert said. “We started selling produce from the back of our hay wagon and then we just kept growing it from there.”

Aside from its restaurant service, Country Market is perhaps best known these days for its annual Pumpkin Fest, a month-long event in October where visitors can enjoy hay rides, a corn maze, live entertainment, and of course the eponymous squash. Now, the Bankerts are bringing back their other seasonal specials as well. These include the sale of Christmas trees in winter, flowers in spring, and the Produce Fest in summer and fall that brings patrons corn, gourds and peppers.

Bankert said they try to have all the corn and veggies in stock by the Fourth of July weekend. Produce will be available through the end of summer and as far into fall as they sprout from the ground.

“It all depends on how long the crops last. We’ll have corn coming in every four or five days. We hope to run through Labor Day with sweetcorn, but it’s all up to Mother Nature,” Bankert said.

“Sometimes the weather makes it such that we can go into September.”

Though the produce is not 100-percent organic, additional products used during their growth are minimized to ensure the freshest crops possible.

The Country Market has had requests for the return of its sweetcorn and tomatoes during the Produce Fest’s hiatus and is eager to once again offer them to patrons, along with its slew of other green goodies.

“We’ve advertised with our local customers that it’s coming and people are excited,” Bankert said. “We know people are willing to pay a little extra and make a special trip to know it’s something that was fresh picked that day. They can always count on the quality and they’ll come back for that.”

Sleepless in summer readings

FROM THE BACKSHOP High court sends a clear message It was a heartening 5-4 vote last week by which the United States Supreme Court ruled public-sector unions in Illinois are forbidden from collecting fees from home-health care workers who don’t want to be part of a union.

If there was a failing in the decision, it is that it is limited to health-care workers and not all public-sector unions. Justices sadly abjured the opportunity to curb the act of publicsector unions passing representation costs to non-members. The decision, though, has registered as a setback for unions in Illinois and similarly minded states that force homehealth care workers to unjustifiably hand over union dues. We believe it should be extended to the entirety of union members nationwide.

A closed shop should not exist, for such an entity obliterates freedom on multiple levels. If someone wants to join a union and pay dues, that’s a personal choice. Labor unions argued, though, that if Illinois is allowed to back out of its collective-bargaining agreement with the union, it would only be a matter of time before workers see their wages cut and benefits dropped. And there it is, a scare tactic. Union leaders are said to also fear conservative judges across the nation using the ruling to strike down laws in 26 states that require public-sector employees, such as teachers and police officers, to fork over dues to the unions that negotiate contracts on their behalf even if the employee doesn’t want to become a union member. And as for unions protecting members’ employment positions, in our experiences we’ve never witnessed a worker with a poor performance record have his or her job “saved by the union” - although we’re not so naive as to think it doesn’t happen, because we’re certain it does. Regardless, it all boils down to this with respect to union leadership and its trailing zealots: Liberals don’t really care what you do as long as it’s compulsory.

Commentary by Danielle WIlson

Carrying more than needed Commentary by Terry Anker Sometimes, I imagine that my parents must have been clairvoyant. They warned of the inevitable turns that my life’s path might take decades before they happened. Their advice could not have imagined the form that my family or career might adopt, yet I constantly reflect on their insight and am amazed by their prescience.

How do the things that we learned as kids come back to us over and over again as adults?

Perhaps our folks simply tapped into the human inevitability of natural pattern and were only passing to us the truisms of a lifetime of experience. The basis of our civilization, some would say, is fully vested in each of us by the time that we enter the first grade. Be nice. Don’t take something that doesn’t belong to you. Care for those weaker and lonely. Value one’s inner character more than the desirous objects or even people that come and go from our domain.

Can we determine the importance to one’s life of another person or thing by taking it away? If

we miss it, does that feeling set its value? Over time for me, the approach has proven a fairly effective guide. There is so much – some might call it baggage – that we carry along either because we are afraid to let it go or, perhaps even more tragically, because we forget that we even have it. The habit of pruning is a good one. But, the ability to discern what matters from what doesn’t can be tricky.

Can we ever really expect to find happiness if we don’t leave the unnecessary luggage at baggage claim? I tend to carry more than is required.

It may be time to shake out my emotional hoard and decide what’s worth keeping. A lighter load sounds most appealing.

I haven’t slept well in a week thanks to my stupid idea to encourage my kids to read this summer. Like most parents, I am humor constantly nagging my children to put down the “electronical” devices (as my 10-year-old calls them) and pick up a book. Generally they laugh in my face or offer lame excuses like, “I have to read at school. I need a break!” But with two months of salt mine vacation and loads of free time, that pretext no longer applies.

Normally I read fantasy, but my summer default is fluff romance, specifically Nora Roberts. Easy reading and just enough smut to whisk me away from suburban parenting. This year, however, I decided to expand my perusing to other genres in hopes of inspiring the aforementioned anti-literary offspring. Perhaps they would even read along with me!

I began with The Things They Carried by Tim O’Brien. A student had left it in my classroom, a byproduct of his AP World Lit course, so I assumed it was at least decent. Plus, the cover implied a supernatural vibe, like maybe what soldiers carried with them into the afterlife?

No. The pseudo-memoir focuses on the dual nature of fighting in Vietnam, both the horrible and the beautiful. A far, far cry from Nora, and definitely not an uplifting escape from my soccer mom life. Plus, too many F-bombs for a family book club.

Next up, The Fault in Our Stars. I went into this one knowing it would be sad – my youngest had just finished it – but what I didn’t anticipate was the perfectly injected humor.

Somehow this made the story “real” for me.

So not only did I empathize with the main characters, as a mom I could also relate to the grieving parents. Double depressing! Another two nights of disturbing dreams and cryinginduced headaches, added to a sex talk with my fifth-grader I was not prepared for.

I am now on my latest book, one I was sure would not leave me miserable, Stephen King’s Doctor Sleep. WRONG! It’s a sequel to The Shining, with the protagonist being Jack Nicholson’s now-grown-up son who is trying to overcome his alcoholism despite still seeing dead people. A captivating premise, but one that’s leaving me scared poo-less to use the bathroom at 3:30 a.m. I’d put it down, but in the daylight it’s awesome!

Nevertheless, I need sleep. I’ll be returning to Nora ASAP and my kids can go back to their dumb electronicals. I’ve changed my mind on this summer reading thing. Peace out.

Jennie DeVoe said her brand of music crosses the genres of folk, pop and blues – but all of her songs have soul. (Submitted photo)

Nationally known singers Jennie DeVoe, Carrie Newcomer to play Fishers stage in July

By Jessica Fox • jessica@currentincarmel.com

Could you use a summer evening out with your friends? Singers Jennie DeVoe and Carrie Newcomer hope to provide listeners with music that anyone can enjoy at the free music Fishers Amp After Dark concert series.

Growing up surrounded by music, it was only natural for DeVoe to develop a musical interest at an early age.

Influenced by greats like Ray Charles, Aretha Franklin and Etta James, DeVoe said she tries to infuse old and new music with folk lyrics in a way that would appeal to any age group.

As far as new music goes she said she is influenced by unique voices like Adele and Imagine Dragons, but during her career she has opened for singers like Bonnie Raitt, Jack Johnson and Ray Charles.

DeVoe would describe her genre of music as Americana soul music. But her goal is to write good lyrical content and paint a picture for her audience.

At every show DeVoe tries to mix a set list of her original songs and a few covers depending on what she feels the audience wants to hear at that particular concert.

“If you are a performer at heart there is something inside you that urges you to please the audience,” DeVoe said.

That’s why she doesn’t believe she has ever stuck to an exact set list.

DeVoe recently released her newest album Radiator – which she produced with John Parish in England.

Radiator was her third collaboration with Parish, who is most well-

known for his work with singer PJ Harvey. They also plan on producing and recording a new album together in the spring of 2015.

When she is not working on her music, DeVoe is very passionate about animal rights. She supports messages that get people to ultimately think about the care of their own pets.

DeVoe gave her song “Give a little love” to PetPals TV to use with their programming.

She is also is passionate about the treatment of farm animals.

“Even if they ultimately go to the butcher, they still deserve to have a happy and healthy life,” DeVoe said.

Singer songwriter Carrie Newcomer said she has been influenced by all kinds of music, but she always comes back to classic singing poets.

Newcomer has received a Grammy for writing the song “I Should Have Known Better.” The band Nickel Creek got a Grammy for performing this song on their This Side album.

She describes herself as an acoustic singer/songwriter influenced by Joanie Mitchell and Paul Simon.

Newcomer has played concerts all over the country, but she says that Indiana is her favorite outdoor venue.

“There is nothing like an outdoor Indiana summer concert,” she said.

O’Jays still wowing audiences

By Joseph Knoop • joseph@currentincarmel.com

Legendary R&B group, The O’Jays, with more than 50 charted songs and 24 top-10 hits, will perform at the Palladium on July music 13, bringing more than 50 years of experience to the stage.

The group, formed in Canton, Ohio, in 1958, was inducted into the Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Fame in 2005.

A stable of songs like “Back Stabbers,” “Love Train” and “For the Love of Money” propelled them to stardom throughout the late 1960s and ‘70s.

Original member Eddie Levert, born in Alabama and raised in Canton, feels like the Midwest has a special quality to it.

“It’s always really great to play the home base and come back to where it all started,” Levert said. “It’s always a gratifying feeling. You take the abuse of running from hotel to hotel, jumping on airplanes. You get home and everybody acts like you’re the hero. They know you so well.”

Despite touring and recording for the better part of a century, Levert knows there’s always room for a hilarious error or two. In a momentary lapse of memory, Levert happened to forget the words to one of the songs he’d been singing for decades while performing in St. Petersburg, Fla. “The best part is you’re mumbling, so you yell to the audience, ‘Sing it with me!’” Levert said.

Despite rare incidents like that, Levert feels

The O’Jays have continued to build a new generation of fans decade after decade. (Submitted photo)

the audience knows what they’re there for.

“Hit records are hit records,” Levert said. “They want to hear that record and hear you sing it like that. If you can put a bit of movement in it, they appreciate that.”

Levert, along with fellow band member Walter Williams founded The O’Jays Foundation shortly after their Rock ‘n’ Roll Hall of Fame induction. The foundation provides scholarships for high school, college and even non-traditional adult students.

Levert claims that similar assistance and music education helped launch his career as a musician.

IWS announces new schedule

By Joseph Knoop • joseph@currentincarmel.com

The Indiana Wind Symphony has announced its 2014-15 season concert schedule and it will feature the works of a wide variety music of composers and performers.

The Indiana Wind Symphony will perform “Bicentennials – The Star Spangled Banner and the Saxophone,” on Sept. 27, with saxophone virtuoso Kenneth Tse. “I’m really excited to have Tse as the soloist,” said Charles Conrad, director of the Indiana Wind Symphony. “I think he’s one of the really brilliant wind players in the world.”

The show will be a tribute of sorts in celebration of Adolph Sax, inventor of the saxophone.

The performance will also feature the works of John Philip Sousa and Frank Ticheli.

Pianist Kelleen Strutz will join the symphony for a performance dedicated to heroism on Nov. 15, featuring John Williams’ “Summon the Heroes,” and Rachmaninoff’s “Piano Concerto No. 2 in C Minor.”

The holidays won’t want for music, either.

Soprano Jessamyn Anderson, along with Santa and Mrs. Clause will join the symphony for renditions of “O Holy Night” and “A Christmas Festival” on Dec. 6.

Fans of witches, wizards, fantasy and Broadway will be treated to the songs of “Wicked,” William’s “Harry Potter” suite, and “The Lord of the Rings” on Feb. 21. Classic hymns, such as

“Kentucky Harmony,” “Power and Glory,” and “Finlandia” will be reworked into concert pieces by the symphony on March 28.

The symphony’s final performance, featuring a tribute to brass instruments alongside soloists James Beckel and Julie Beckel opens May 17. Jame’s Beckel’s own “The Glass Bead Game,” based on the novel of the same title, and Copland’s “Fanfare for the Common Man.” Season tickets for all performances go on sale July 1.

Reduce screen time today Commentary by Kathleen Connelly Last week I was grocery shopping with my 3-year-old and out of the blue she asks, “Can you buy me an iPad?” fitness What? I laughed a little but she was serious and I think most kids are when they ask their parents for some type of electronic device.

We live in a world now that kids use computers, iPads, e-readers, TVs, video games and cellphones. Wow, that is a lot! Yes, some devices can be used for educational means and the HSE school district currently has an initiative to have each student have their own iPad. However, maybe it is all too much?

If kids are using all of these electronics, when are they playing? When are they being active indoors or outdoors? I remember playing outside until our parents made us come in for dinner but today it seems that most kids are inside in front of a screen.

A study done in 2010 by the Kaiser Foundation found the following daily media use results for 8- to 18-year-olds: • Approximately 7.5 hours using entertainment media • Approximately 4.5 hours watching TV • Approximately 1.5 hours on the computer • Over an hour playing video games Of course there is a lot of value in all of

As a Zionsville native, Dr. Schulte is excited to be giving back to the community she grew up in. She focuses on working with parents and children to offer life-long health habits to improve overall well-being.

Dr. Schulte is accepting new patients. She also offers expectant mothers a free get-acquainted visit to meet the staff and spend time answering your questions.

the technical advances we have made over the last 50 years but I do think our kids’, even parents’, daily activity is suffering. Can you think of a day that you or your kids didn’t have any screen time at all? So my challenge is for you to reduce screen time starting today!

Some suggestions from www.mayoclinic. com only have electronics in common areas of the house and don’t use screen time as a reward. Another suggestion which I love is to have certain times or days that there is no screen time at all. What would your kids do if there was one day a week that there was no iPad, no DSI or no TV? If you have kids under 5-years-old, take advantage of the PlayFULL Hours programs in Fishers. Older kids can use one of the basketball courts at Holland Memorial Park.

For the whole family, rent a kayak at Saxony Beach or visit the Monon Community Center in Carmel for water slides. Take the challenge and see what new adventures your family can have this summer without the TV or iPad. Kathleen M.

Moms launch colorful startup

By Terri Spilman • news@currentzionsville.com

As their kids flee the nest, four Carmel moms have reinvented themselves by migrating from the ball field to the board now open room with their start-up designer gifts, accessories and pet product company, A Polka Dot Life.

“We all got to the same point where we wanted to do something. The kids were getting older.

We knew we were smart enough to do some kind of business. For years, we were wracking our brains,” said Tanna Hanger.

She and her longtime friends Marcia Morgan, Lisa Hammons and Leslie Theofanis were finally inspired to make designer dog collars after attending a pet blessing in celebration of the Feast of St. Francis of Assisi.

“From there, we just thought, ‘Everyone loves their dogs.’ So we googled ‘How to make a dog collar,’ made a demo and we added a cross because of the blessing,” Hammons said.

“Each of us is a blessing to the other,” is the phrase the group chose to appear on tags attached to each collar as a reflection of the joy that pets give their owners.

The group’s friendship was cemented through their sons, who have been best friends from early childhood. So it was a natural transition as they pooled their individual talents of sewing, designing and writing along with their unwavering love for dogs to create the fun, brightly-colored collars embellished with lots of ribbons and their namesake polka dots.

After selling the collars through word of

mouth and pet fests, demand was growing to the point that it was more than the group could physically keep up within the confines of Hammons’ basement – which currently serves as the company headquarters. A portion of the collar production is now outsourced to an Indianabased family commercial sewing business.

Their reach has expanded beyond Indiana with boutiques in Chicago and New York offering their products.

“I just love seeing how adorable all the dogs look in their collars,” Morgan said. “It just makes us very happy to see how cute they look.”

A Polka Dot Life products can be found at local pet boutiques as well as Amazon.com, Etsy.com and through their website.

“We have a rule that we are friends first and business is second. We’ve really kept that in mind at all times. That’s helped us a lot because each of us are a blessing to the other.”

I am so proud to say that Peruvian food has been listed in the Guinness Book of Records as the world’s most diverse cuisine with close to 500 original dishes! Peruvian food has an influence of Andean, Spanish, Chinese, Japanese and African cultures. Lomo Saltado is a very popular and traditional Peruvian dish and I am thrilled to share it with you! This “SABROSO” or “tasty dish” won’t last on your dinner table!

GRILLED LOMO SALTADO Total time: 1 hour / serves: 4 Ingredients: 1 skirt steak, 2 medium red onions, cut in 1/2 lengthwise, 1 clove of garlic, 1/4 teaspoon salt, 4 teaspoons rice vinegar, 4 teaspoons soy sauce, 4 tablespoons canola oil, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, 3/4 tea spoon ground black pepper, 2 large Yukon gold potato, peeled and cut into wedges, 1/2 teaspoon paprika, 2 large heirloom tomatoes, cut into wedges, 1/4 cup chopped cilantro leaves Directions: Have grill pre-greased and preheated to medium high. Place steak in a bowl and onions in another bowl. Using a knife make a paste by combining garlic and salt. Whisk together garlic paste, rice vinegar, soy sauce, 2 tablespoons of canola (reserve the other 2), cumin, ground pepper.

Divide marinade between steak and onions.

Refrigerate for 1/2 hour. Before grilling allow steak and onions to come to room temperature.

Place steak on grill and cook about 4 minutes per side for medium-rare.

Discard marinade. When done, let steak rest before slicing. Place onions face down on grill and cook until slightly soft, about 6 minutes per side. When done, cut onions into wedges.

Sprinkle paprika over potatoes and toss with remaining canola oil. Place on grill and cook until soft inside, about 6 minutes per side.

Season with salt when done. In a large bowl combine steak and juices, onions, potatoes, tomatoes, cilantro and reserved marinade. Toss gently and season again with salt and pepper if needed.

Serve warm. Accompany with white rice with finely chopped parsley and fluff it with a fork.

Four-season addition opens up to the outdoors Commentary by Larry Greene EXISTING HOME: Located in the Willows subdivision in Zionsville, the owners of this home were tired of their windy and blueprint for sun exposed back patio improvement area. “Our neighborhood is still under development and there are not yet enough homes to block the strong winds. With the sun and winds constantly blowing over our umbrellas, it made it impossible for us to truly enjoy our patio.”

BASEMENT ACCESS: A transition room was added off the kitchen with a staircase leading to the basement. Decorative French doors were added to the design of the transition room which provides the perfect flow from the kitchen and basement to the backyard patio.

NATURAL LIGHT: Preserving natural light was a priority. Fixed windows were added to the existing hearth room wall, basement wall, and on the exterior wall flanking the French doors. Two large skylights were also added to illuminate the basement stairwell.

SUNROOM DESIGN: To make the room feel bright and open, casement windows were installed around the perimeter of the sunroom giving it an abundant amount of natural light while also allowing the cool breeze to come through the room when opened. Cathedral ceilings also give the room a more spacious and open feel.

CONSISTENT INTERIOR & EXTERIOR FINISH:

RESULT: The homeowners are finally able to enjoy the outdoor weather without the headache of sun and strong winds. “We love using the space in the morning. We open up all of the windows, drink coffee, read the paper and listen to the birds sing. It’s the best way to ease into the day.”

The addition was designed to give a cohesive look with the existing home. Since the original bricks on the exterior of the home were discontinued, new bricks were tinted to perfectly blend with the existing exterior. The interior details were also kept consistent including the rounded wall corners, white painted trim and the antique bronze stairwell balusters.
