The Zionsville Parks and Recreation Dept. held a community open house June 29 at Zionsville Town Hall. The purGROWTH pose was to gather feedback from residents. Residents shared suggestions for what they want to see included in the next five-year master plan.

Zionsville Parks and Recreation Supt.

Jarod Logsdon said the Indiana Dept. of Natural Resources requires an updated plan every five years. Logsdon said that the parks department has almost accomplished all of the goals in their previous plan, which was created in 2018.

“A lot of those construction projects you see right now are the result of that 2018 plan,” he said.

Those projects include the new Overley Worman Park and extensions to the Zionsville Big-4 Rail Trail.

“We are continuing to grow along with the community, and it’s our goal to keep green infrastructure and amenities spreading as Zionsville continues to grow as well,” Logsdon said.

The open house featured several stations that allowed residents to voice concerns ANBI-11130-04

and provide suggestions. One station gave attendees the opportunity to tell the department what programs and activities they had previously participated in. Another asked residents how safe they feel at Zionsville’s trails and parks.

At one station, “Challenges and Barriers,” residents were asked to show via red stickers what challenges keep them from taking full advantage of the parks and trails system. Many stickers were placed next to “Not enough park-to-park walking/biking connections.”

A similar station, which used orange stickers to denote a response, asked what programs and activities visitors want to see added. “Additional nature and habitat focused programming” along with “More community events” were two popular selections.

Logsdon said getting responses from the community is vital to the department.

“People are really just voicing what they want to see in our parks system, so that’s nice to have that feedback,” Logsdon said.

For Rajeev Ram, the opportunity to watch professional tennis stars compete in person was a great motivation.

TENNIS The 2002 Carmel High School graduate watched as the likes of Pete Sampras, Andre Agassi and Andy Roddick played in the ATP Tour stop in Indianapolis.

The ATP Tour event ran from 1988 to 2009 on the hardcourts at the Indianapolis Tennis Center. After losing RCA as a title sponsor after the 2006 tournament, the Indianapolis Tennis Championships struggled and eventually sold the sanctioning rights to Atlanta organizers. As an up-and-coming tennis player, Ram benefited from wild card entries into the event.

So Ram, who has won 23 doubles titles on the tour, has arranged to bring pro tennis back to the Indianapolis area.

The $80,000 Rajeev Ram Foundation Indy Challenger, a sanctioned ATP Challenger Tour tournament that is also part of the USTA Pro Circuit, will be held July 17-24 at Pearson Automotive Tennis Club, an indoor tennis facility, in Zionsville.

“It’s important for me because one of the things that really inspires me to work hard is watching the highest level of professional tennis,” Ram said. “Any time you can see that up close and personal, it’s pretty cool, because I don’t think TV does it much justice. To see the best players in the world compete in your backyard is a pretty neat thing, so that’s one of the biggest motivations for having a tournament back in Indianapolis.”

Ram said the event came together late when he proposed it in March because there was a space open on the calendar.

The tournament will consist of a 24-player singles qualifying draw, a 32-player singles main draw and a 16-team doubles draw.

More than 50 ATP Tour professionals will go head-to-head for points and prize money.

“It’s not ideal for the players because the summer tournaments in North American are all outdoors,” Ram said.

One of the best-known players whose singles ranking qualifies him for the Challenger is Sam Querrey, who is ranked No, 157. Querrey, 34, who has a career-high ranking of No. 11, was the runner-up to Robby Ginepri in 2009 in the final ATP Tour

tournament in Indianapolis.

Ram said court specifications the ATP Tour requires eliminated some Indianapolis outdoor venues.

“Hopefully in the future, outdoors might be an option, but indoors also has advantages in terms of controlled climate and scheduling,” Ram said.

Ram said he would like to see the Indy Challenger become an annual tournament but that decision will come later.

“We’ll examine what went wrong and what went right, where we can improve in making the determination,” Ram said.

Ram will attend the Indy Challenger as he is taking a break after playing in Wimbledon. He will return to action in the Washington, D.C., tournament, which begins Aug. 1.

Tickets for the event will be limited because of the intimate size of the facility.

They are on sale at Rajeev Ram Foundation Indy Challenger at ticketsignup.io.

Ram said the Rajeev Ram Foundation helped organize the event, such as finding a site, tournament director and volunteers.

“We also had to raise enough funds to run the tournament,” he said.

Bob Bryant, the 500 Festival president/ chief executive officer, is serving as tournament director. He previously ran the ATP Tour tournament in Atlanta.

Ram’s foundation previously was known as EntouRaj for Kids, but rebranded this year.

Anyone interested in volunteering to support the event or for sponsorship opportunities should email rajeevramfoundation@gmail.com. For more, visit RajeevRamFoundation.org.

Town council considers stipend for essential workers

By Haley Miller news@currentzionsville.com In a preliminary discussion of disbursement of funds from the American Rescue Plan Act, the Zionsville GOVERNMENT Town Council discussed a $129,000 stipend request to benefit essential workers at its July 6 meeting.

A formal vote did not take place, but council members expressed interest in saving the remaining ARPA funds in case they are needed for administrative purposes in the future.

The town council plans to introduce the resolution for a public hearing during its Aug. 1 town meeting.

“This money we have is a pretty big safety net in a pretty turbulent environment,” council member Josh Garrett said. “I just don’t want to give away too much money, even though it’s deserved, not knowing that we may need that for core operating duties.”

Council Vice President Brad Burk suggested raising the stipend for workers. President Jason Plunkett said he agreed but, because of economic uncertainty, recommended revisiting ARPA funds in the future.

“I, too, would like to see it bump up a little bit, but I’m also sensitive to the fact that we can always come back and do this again,” Plunkett said. “If we come back and find that revenue is different, and we find out we’re in a different spot, we have until 2024 (to use the funds).”

The premium pay funded by ARPA is intended for essential workers who supported critical infrastructure during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, including the sectors of public health and safety, social and human services and state/local government, according to the National League of Cities.

Employees cannot have worked remotely and must have risked COVID-19 exposure.

“These are folks that were deemed essential personnel early on by the administration,” Plunkett said.

Zionsville resident, 94, discovered love of hiking at age 70

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com Joanne Applegate believes you’re never too old to try something new.

The 94-year-old Zionsville resident took up hiking as a hobby when she was 70.

Nearly a quarter of a century later, she still meets with fellow hikers and walks the trails in Zionsville.

“I don’t think it’s ever too late,” she said of trying new activities. “You can get up and walk around your block.”

Applegate began hiking shortly after her husband, Don Applegate, died. The same year her husband died, the woman Applegate often walked with passed away. Applegate then flew to Switzerland to meet a group of hikers organized through the Elderhostel, a nonprofit educational travel program now known as Road Scholar. She discovered she loved hiking and, upon returning to the U.S., joined the Indianapolis Hiking Club two years later in 1999 at age 72.

Applegate thought the club would present an opportunity to socialize and make friends.

She was right. She has traveled around the world hiking with friends she met in the club. She’s hiked with friends in France, England, Scotland and U.S. National Parks, among other places. In 2007, she was recognized by the club for hiking 1,000 miles in a year. She has walked the Indianapolis Mini-Marathon seven times.

“The great thing about the hiking club is you don’t need a friend to go with,” she said. “New people are so welcome.”

Applegate said she enjoys the physical component of hiking, but the biggest benefit has been making friends.

“Those are the nicest people in the Indianapolis Hiking Club,” she said. “It’s been so good in my life.”

Applegate hikes less as she ages, but she said she’s doing well.

“I usually walk 2 miles (a week) with stops along the way,” she said.

Applegate maintains her health by attending three yoga classes a week at Blooming Life Studio in Zionsville.

“I hope it helps,” she said. “The thing about yoga that I like at this point in my life

is, I can do as much as I can do. I don’t have to keep up with everybody. I can do whatever I’m able to do.”

Applegate has four children, 10 grandchildren and 20 great-grandchildren.

Applegate’s daughter Julie Freccero lives in Larkspur, Calif., but speaks with her mother on the phone often. She said her mother is an inspiration.

“My mother came from very simple beginnings,” Freccero said. “I was in Zionsville a month ago and everyone I came across, young and old, told me how lucky they were to know my mom. I’ve lived 2,000 miles away from her for over 30 years, but we are so close. I count the minutes until I can call her every week. She’s kind, interesting, fun, extremely intelligent, independent and ever so wise.”

Freccero said her mother’s hobbies have kept her young.

“Her dedication to yoga and the hiking club, along with her positive attitude, have kept her healthy and young,” Freccero said.

“She is truly an inspiration to so many people in so many ways.”

Throughout her time with the Indianapolis Hiking Club, Applegate has walked 14,000 miles.

That’s roughly five times the distance between New York City and Los Angeles.

Zionsville resident Joanne Applegate has traveled far and wide to hike with her friends. She has been to Italy and taken two trips to England and France. She’s also traveled to Portugal, Switzerland, Wales, Scotland, Banff, Vancouver, Sedona, Ariz., Colorado Springs, Colo., and Glacier National Park in Montana, among other destinations. She hiked the Grand Canyon at age 86 and has hiked at most of Indiana’s state parks.

Besides hiking, Applegate enjoys reading, knitting and completing crossword puzzles.

ESSAY

HUMOR

Heightened awareness

What’s in a name?

Commentary by Terry Anker

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Anything we do frequently enough helps us develop a knack for it. We notice signals imperceptible to others, less experienced than we. Some of us can divine the impending arrival of a summer rainstorm. There are those who can instinctively read the frustration of a domesticated animal and use that insight to improve behavior problems. Many of these “pet whisperers” convert their unusual skills into lucrative careers. Their second sense becomes second cents.

More commonly, we simply develop awareness of the many humble patterns all around us. If a step is missing, we subconsciously take note. No doubt, it is an echo from the day when observing the absence of singing birds or frolicking of woodland creature would tip us to the approach of an alpha predator. These few extra moments of warning might be enough to keep us alive. Frequent commuters will predict the time it might take them to arrive at their destinations within a few minutes of starting the drive. And many road warriors will know, nearly as soon as the crew, if something is wrong after the passengers have boarded an airplane for takeoff.

As the crew scurries about, cabin doors are closed, oxygen mask instructions are given and familiar chimes sound as we prepare for takeoff. If any is out of place, we sit up a little, become more alert and look for irregularity. The jetway is removed from the plane but we’re not backing away from the gate.

Why? The crew is not seated. What gives? Experience is a good teacher. It illuminates the shape of things.

The captain comes on the intercom to tell us that a mechanical problem requires that we return to the gate. Groaning at the inconvenience, we turn to our companion and self-assuredly remark that we “knew that something was wrong.”

As I was walking on Galveston Beach, contemplating my last day as a dance mom, a stranger greeted me with “What’s going on, Red?” I haven’t been called that in years, which got me thinking about all the names I’ve answered to, and how they represent a sort of identity continuum for me.

As a child, I was These days, I’m mostly “Danielle” “Mom” (or “Mother” if most of the my kids are feeling time, even particularly sassy) though it’s actually – DANIELLE WILSON my middle name, but I was also “Doe-well” to a younger sister and inexplicably “Fan Tut” to my parents. As I got older, I often found myself having to forgo “Danielle” in favor of my legal first name, which I will obviously never divulge voluntarily but will tell you it starts with a “V.” Yes, tragically my initials are “VD.” I know!

I spent two years at the U.S. Air Force Academy, where predictably I went by my last name or simply “cadet,” though “Red” was used frequently along with some terms I can’t mention in polite company but were also colorful in nature. And once I started teaching, I was “Miss [insert maiden name here]” before eventually becoming “Mrs. Wilson” or simply “Wilson.”

These days, I’m mostly “Mom” (or “Mother” if my kids are feeling particularly sassy) or “Ma’am,” though my husband will toss around “Wife,” “Woman” and a choice word for “lady of the night” when he’s trying to be funny. I’ll respond to any of them, really, though I draw the line at “Dan,” “Danny” and “D.” Those are unacceptable and forever shall be.

Hopefully I have a long while until I acquire any new names. I am definitely not ready for “Mamaw.” Peace out.

Four ways to prevent plantar fasciitis heel pain Commentary by Dr. David Sullivan Plantar fasciitis is an injury affecting the ligament that runs along the bottom of your foot, from your heel to your PODIATRY toes. Called the plantar fascia, this connective tissue absorbs a lot of shock as you walk or run.

Too much pressure on your feet can cause the ligament to get overstretched, inflamed and even torn, causing heel pain.

It would be best to not develop this overuse injury by taking steps to avoid this painful condition. Here are four tips for preventing plantar fasciitis.

Protect your mobility Limits on your foot’s flexibility can lead to plantar fasciitis. You’re more likely to have problems if you have tight muscles in your calves, flat feet or an untreated ankle injury. Come into the office at the first sign of pain or mobility issues and we can conduct a thorough exam and recommend ways to keep you moving — and keep heel pain at bay.

stantly stretching and contracting. Avoid overuse and inflammation by taking frequent sitting breaks throughout the day.

Cross train and build in rest days Continuously subjecting your ligaments to high-impact activities like long or fast daily runs can inflame your plantar fascia.

Even if you’re an athlete, it’s important to incorporate different types of movements into your training. And, when possible, take a day off between workouts to give your plantar fascia a real chance to recover.

Try orthotics Orthotics offer support in the exact spots where your body needs it most. So, if your body’s construction leaves you at risk for plantar fasciitis, we may suggest fitting you for orthotics.

Already dealing with heel pain? Don’t wait another day — plantar fasciitis gets worse without treatment. Call our office today and request an immediate appointment.

A board-certified foot surgeon and wound specialist, Dr. David Sullivan is the owner of Westfield Foot and Ankle, LLC. Contact him at drs@ westfieldfoot.com.

Give your feet a break Standing for long periods each day puts a lot of pressure on your plantar fascia. It makes your ligament work overtime, con-

DISPATCHES Improve your focus — Do you have more trouble concentrating than you used to?

Studies show that our attention spans are declining, largely due to the use of technology. We feel we have to respond to every text, alert and call immediately. Instead, try putting the phone on “do not disturb” mode for a few minutes when you need to focus on something else. You may find it easier to concentrate and you probably won’t miss anything truly important.

Now a study suggests that theory may be fact. The study analyzed customers’ food choices during periods of loud, upbeat music and during periods of quiet music.

When the music was quiet, customers made healthier menu choices than when the music was loud. The takeaway is that you should focus on the healthy choices regard-

Now it looks like choosing the right beverage can also help. Women who sip green or oolong tea may be able to gain extra breast cancer protection, according to a study published in the journal Anticancer Research. Researchers at St. Louis University in Missouri, led by Chunfa Huang, Ph.D., an associate research professor in the department of internal medicine, tested extracts of various teas against several types of breast cancer cells. Huang included extracts from green, oolong, black and other dark teas. His results indicated that green and oolong teas could stop the growth of breast cancer cells. Black and other dark teas had no effect, he said.

ZCHS student eager to learn at Songbook Academy

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Izzy Casciani is getting a second opportunity to participate in the Songbook Academy.

MUSIC Casciani, who will be a Zionsville Community High School junior in August, is one of 40 finalists from across the nation selected to participate in the summer intensive set for July 16 to July 23 at the Great American Songbook Foundation’s home at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel.

Casciani was selected in 2021 but couldn’t participate because she had the opportunity to portray Roxie Hart in Summer Stock Stage’s production of “Chicago.”

“It was a hard decision, but I had to make that choice,” said Casciani, who added Hart has been her favorite role. “I’ve had my eye on this (Songbook) program for a while. My voice teacher, Jenny Kistner, told me about it and I’ve had friends who have been in it in the past. It’s been on my radar for a while.”

Casciani especially looks forward to the master classes taught by the Broadway professionals.

“I want to soak in as much as I possibly can,” Casciani said. “I know it’s going to be fast paced. I’m excited to try new things.

I think it will help grow my musicality. I’m excited to sing classical music because we don’t get to do that a lot at school and other places around here because it’s not really the main focus. I love singing golden age and jazz.”

Casciani is focusing on more jazz songs, such as “Stormy Weather.”

“I feel a lot of places doing musical theater are focused on modern shows to sell more tickets,” she said. “I’ve always loved golden age musicals.”

Casciani was in Summer Stock Stage’s production of “The Addams Family,” which ended last month, playing Morticia.

Casciani was in Jr. Civic productions when she was younger.

“I focus on acting but use dancing and singing as tools to tell the story,” Casciani said. “It’s so hard to choose because I love every aspect of it.”

Casciani is in Royalaires, the high school’s mixed show choir. She performed in Stephen Sondheim “Into the Woods,” the school musical in the fall of 2021.

“I like it all, but my heart lies with Sondheim because it’s so genius and the

layers of the musical,” she said. “It’s really satisfying to do his work because there is so much you can find within the scripts.

It’s cool to dig deeper into the script and find new stuff.”

Casciani plans to major in musical theater in college.

“My sister (Celia, a 2018 ZCHS graduate) danced and was in Zionsville’s show choirs, so I grew up watching her perform,” Casciani said. “She loved doing school musicals, so I tried doing the school musical in fifth grade and loved it so much. My voice teacher got me involved in Christian Youth Theater.”

editorial@youarecurrent.com Fishers Arts Council is presenting its second exhibit at the Art Gallery at the Collaboration Hub at Hamilton County Community Foundation this month. The exhibit, featuring Hamilton County Artists’ Association artists, runs through July 28 at the gallery, 11810 Technology Dr. in Fishers.

The HCAA artists are part of the 2022 Season of Art presented by the Fishers Arts Council in cooperation with Hamilton County Community Foundation. In all, 35 paintings are on exhibit in the galleries.

“It’s always fun having the members of HCAA join us in the summer for their annual exhibit,” stated Les Reinhardt, executive director of Fishers Art Council.

An immersive experience: THE LUME displays Monet works

By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com According to Indianapolis Museum of Art Vice President of Marketing and External Affairs Jonathan Berger, the Claude ART Monet exhibit at THE LUME is a full sensory experience.

THE LUME recently switched its inaugural exhibit of Vincent van Gogh to one featuring French painter Claude Monet in a display called “Monet & Friends Alive.” The Monet exhibit opened July 3. THE LUME is on the fourth floor of the Indianapolis Museum of Art with 30,000 square feet of projection space. It is the largest continuous exhibition in the museum’s 139-year history. THE LUME opened in 2021 with the Vincent van Gogh exhibit that ran from July 27, 2021, through May of this year. The museum spent the month of June prepping for the Monet exhibit.

Berger said visitors are greeted with a floral aroma upon entering the Monet exhibit.

“THE LUME is a fully immersive experience,” Berger said. “When you walk into that first big gallery space, you’ll see these

“Monet & Friends Alive” will be on display at THE LUME in the Indianapolis Museum of Art through May 2023. (Photos courtesy of the Indianapolis Museum of Art)

amazing images of ‘Monet & Friends’ and hear the music, of course, too. There are various classical tracks to go along that rise and fall with the images. When you see those Monet garden paintings, you’ll have this floral fragrance in there. It’s totally immersive.”

Berger, executive producer of THE LUME, said the exhibit makes the museum less intimidating.

“I studied art, so I’m a lover of art. A large museum, any large museum, can be somewhat intimidating to people if you’re curious about art but don’t really know where to

start,” Berger said. “I think that THE LUME really de-mystifies that museum for a lot of people. You can go up to the fourth floor and explore and engage in art differently.

When you come into THE LUME, these images are larger than life. There’s a floor projection and all the walls. It’s just a different way to explore art.”

A Parisian café on the fourth floor sells French-inspired snacks and adult beverages. Cocktails include a French gimlet and THE LUME and Tonic, with flower buds frozen in the ice cubes.

“When the ice melts, these flowers bloom in your drink,” Berger said. “It’s a really tasty cocktail and really in line with Monet and that style of en plein air.”

At the end of the Monet exhibit, the museum’s collection of Monet work is on display.

THE LUME is open from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m.

Tuesdays and Wednesdays, 11 a.m. to 8 p.m.

Thursday through Saturday and 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday. It is closed Mondays. Tickets are $29 and include general admission to the IMA. IMA tickets do not include general admission to THE LUME. For more, visit discovernewfields.org.

CCP schedule offers variety

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Carmel Community Players’ 2022-23 schedule features a variety of shows and venues.

COMEDY “It is a great combination of comedies, dramas, musicals and straight plays that come from some of our country’s best-known playwrights and composers,” said Rich Phipps, vice president of the CCP board. “Our season promises to bring compelling entertainment to patrons of all ages.”

The season opens with “Jerry’s Girls,” a Broadway Musical Review, Sept. 30 and Oct. 1 at PrimeLife Enrichment in Carmel.

The night will serve as a capital campaign fundraiser as CCP seeks to raise funds for a permanent venue.

“Tick, Tick … BOOM!” is set for Oct. 14-23 at Switch Theatre in Fishers. “Uh Oh Here Comes Christmas” is set for Dec. 9-18 at The Cat in Carmel. The final four shows will be at Ivy Tech Hamilton County in Noblesville Auditorium. “Musical Comedy Murders of 1940” will be presented Feb. 24 to March 5,

2023. “True West” is set for April 21-30, 2023.

“Godspell” will be staged June 16-25, 2023, and “Murder on the Orient Express will be presented Aug. 4-13, 2023.

“We have not done any of the shows before at CCP, and that was the idea,” said Lori Raffel, CCP board president. ‘’I chose Ken Ludwick‘s ‘Murder on the Orient Express’ because I read some reviews about it and how it captures the tongue-in-cheek quality of Ken Ludwick along with the great characters of Agatha Christie. I think any more when you do Agatha Christie, you can’t take it too seriously and the script is unique and fun, and I think audiences will really like it.”

Raffel said CCP performed “Ragtime” at Ivy Tech in April 2018.

“We really liked the venue and we’re hoping to sell lots of tickets this coming season, so that’s why we chose it for the last four productions,” Raffel said.

The ‘Godspell’ production is for rising young stars. Tanya Haas will direct the youth productions as she did earlier this summer.

Eric Bryant will direct “True West,” a play

Blueprint for Improvement: Curb appeal in Carmel Commentary by Larry Greene Built in Carmel’s Avian Glen neighborhood, this home’s owners were looking to add dimension and architectural intrigue to the brick façade.

After

THE BLUEPRINT • A portico and columns add plenty of pop to the formerly plain exterior entry, as well as practical protection from the elements.

• New double French doors replace the single front door for a stylish statement that welcomes visitors.

• Stamped concrete on the walkway, rounded steps and entry provide style and durability.

• White pine tongue-and-groove, stained in a rich wood tone, on the portico roof provides a warm contrast to the exterior elements.

• Oversized lanterns and planters complete the look.

A visit to Franciscan Assisi Commentary by Don Knebel Today, in our second visit to Assisi, we look at sites associated with St. Francis.

Francesco (“Francis”) di PiTRAVEL etro di Bernardone was born in Assisi in about A.D. 1181 to a prosperous Italian merchant and his wife, a French noblewoman. At about age 22, Francis abandoned his previously decadent lifestyle and became a beggar, to the displeasure of his father, who reportedly locked him in a storeroom. After a vision, Francis began restoring churches around Assisi, including tiny Porziuncola where he lived in a nearby hut and renounced his family and its wealth. Francis adopted the dress of a poor priest and began attracting followers to Porziuncola with his idea of a simple life of poverty, following the example of Jesus.

In 1209, Pope Innocent III recognized Francis and 11 followers, who had traveled to Rome to meet him, as the “Franciscan Order,” requiring members not to own property and to beg for food while preaching in the streets. While close to death, Francis asked to be returned to his hut near Porziuncola and to be buried outside the city among thieves, emulating Jesus.

Francis died in his hut on Oct. 3, 1226.

Less than two years later, Pope Gregory IX declared Francis a saint and began build-

ing the Basilica of St. Francis on an Assisi hillside, previously the burial ground of criminals, as the saint’s burial site. The magnificent basilica on the renamed Hill of Paradise, including an Upper Church, a Lower Church and the crypt of St. Francis, is the most important destination for the thousands of pilgrims who visit Assisi each year. Assisi’s 88,000-square-foot Basilica of St. Mary of the Angels, built between 1569 and 1679, is the seventh-largest church in the world and includes within it the now lavishly decorated Porziuncola, the holiest place in the world for Franciscans.
