Beginning with a Sept. 29 media day at the Riverview Health Arena at Innovation Mile featuring coaches and players from all 12 teams, the Horizon League, an NCAA Division I athletics conference, is gearing up for its first year in Noblesville. The arena will be the host facility for the second rounds, semifinals and championships of the 2027-2031 Horizon League Men’s and Women’s Basketball Championships. Horizon League Commissioner Jill Bodensteiner said the facility will give student-athletes a world-class experience. “Beyond the brick and mortar is just the city,” Bodensteiner said. “Every coach and student athlete is raving about the restaurants, the hotels, the proximity and the ease of getting in and out, and they haven’t even met the people yet. All of those things have sort of blown me away.” Bodensteiner said as the conference prepares for next year, the coming months will include behind-the-scenes work, including staffing up a local organizing committee and building on their sponsorships and corporate partners. “Horizon League men’s and women’s

Vote centers approved news@youarecurrent.com The Hamilton County Election Board voted unanimously Sept. 29 to transition from traditional precinct-based voting to a countywide vote center model beginning with the 2027 municipal elections. Under the new system, Hamilton County voters will no longer be required to cast their ballot at an assigned precinct on election day. Instead, they can vote at any designated vote center in the county. Hamilton County operates 102 polling sites. Under the approved plan, the county will establish 57 vote centers — more than double the 28 locations required by state law based on Hamilton County’s registered voter population. “This gives voters more flexibility while allowing us to build an election system that can better accommodate Hamilton County’s continued growth,” Hamilton County Clerk Kathy Kreag Williams stated. “Beginning next year, voters can choose the vote center that works best for them rather than being tied to one specific location.”

The unanimous vote marks a change from last year, when the proposal fell one vote short of the unanimous approval required. Ray Adler, the Republican appointee to the election board, voted against the proposal at that time, saying he wanted to see how vote centers worked in Allen County before making a significant change in Hamilton County. “I had concerns last year because this is a major change that will affect hundreds of thousands of voters,” Adler stated. “We’ve had another year to study the process, learn from other counties and strengthen our own plan. I’m comfortable that we’re ready to move forward.” Greg Purvis, the Democratic appointee to the election board, supported the proposal last year and again this year. “We didn’t all start in the same place on this issue, but we took the time to work through the concerns and get to a plan we could all support,” Purvis stated. “That’s how this process should work. Now we can focus on making sure voters understand the change and are prepared for 2027.”

Riverview Health refines orthopedic procedures with robotic surgery system

By Jessica Todd jessica@youarecurrent.com Riverview Health is implementing advanced surgical technology to expand access to orthopedic care in Hamilton County. Riverview Health at 395 Westfield Rd. in Noblesville recently acquired a Stryker Mako robotic-arm assisted surgery system, which supports knee, hip and shoulder joint replacement procedures. The county-owned hospital is the first in central Indiana to have a system equipped with the shoulder platform, and will be the first to perform a robotic-assisted shoulder replacement, according to Riverview Health officials. The acquisition follows the hospital’s acquisition of a DaVinci 5 in January, an Intuitive Surgical Inc. advanced robotic-assisted surgical system designed to enhance precision in minimally invasive procedures. “I’ve said for years that one day every operating room will have some type of robotic technology,” Riverview Health President and CEO Julie Nix said. “We’re seeing that start to come to fruition between our DaVinci robot and now the Mako robot. It just means a lot to be able to offer this type of advanced technology right here in Hamilton County.” Nix said different robots are funded in different ways. She said Stryker, an American medical technology company, provided the hospital with the Mako robot without a large capital investment up front. The hospital has thresholds for how many procedures they need to perform monthly for Riverview to fulfill its contract. She is confident the hospital will have no problem meeting the threshold. “(Intuitive Surgical Inc. and Stryker) realize that hospitals, especially county hospitals, don’t have $2 million per robot to just spend,” Nix said. “They really got creative with realizing hospitals want this technology, but can’t afford the upfront capital investment. So, they’ve changed their model to make it much more attainable and affordable for hospital systems.”

“I think they feel my excitement about it when I talk to them because I can see their eyes kind of light up,” Jacobsen said. “It’s fun. I’m really, really looking forward to using it.” ON THE COVER: Riverview Health ortho-

Nix said Riverview is already looking at acquiring another DaVinci robot and hopes the Mako robot has the same success. She said the hospital is looking into other robotic surgical systems, such as one for detecting lung cancer. “We’re pretty much wanting to stay on the cutting edge of all the robotic technologies,” Nix said. “I’ve seen the patients’ outcomes when they have a robotic surgery versus having it the traditional way. They really do have a faster recovery.” Riverview Health orthopedic surgeon Dr. Stephen Jacobsen is particularly excited about the robot. He will perform his first surgery with it this month. “The precision that this provides is unlike anything that has existed prior to this,” Jacobsen said. “These robots assist the surgeon in performing the bone preparation for getting the implants into the shoulder for joint replacements for knee, hip and shoulder.” Jacobsen said it is important to note

technology is not replacing doctors but elevating their capabilities. The Mako system utilizes CT-based 3D modeling technology to assist surgeons with preoperative planning and precision-guided bone preparation. The platform is designed to improve surgical accuracy, reduce disruption to surrounding tissue and support better patient outcomes. “The robot is only allowing me to take away a bone that I have decided in the plan is the bone that needs to go — no more, no less,” Jacobsen said. “It’s kind of like a check against our inadequacies as human beings. It makes us super, super accurate with how we do things. Especially in shoulder replacement surgery, that bone is worth its weight in gold because there’s so little of it that you want to be as careful as possible to only take away the bone that you need to take away, and leave the remaining good bone.” Jacobsen said patients understand the technology’s benefits.

Riverview Health has opened orthopedic walk-in clinics at 14535 Hazel Dell Parkway in Carmel, 323 W. Tournament Trail in Westfield and 865 Westfield Rd. in Noblesville. “By expanding this access to everybody, we are looking to get people diagnosed more quickly, treated more quickly and via both of those get more successful outcomes for patients,” Riverview Health orthopedic surgeon Dr. Stephen Jacobsen said. Hamilton County Commissioners President Christine Altman said having quality care is critical for the community as the county continues to grow. “Having that close to home is just so much more convenient for the people who live here,” Altman said. “Having specialty care that’s not through an emergency room is going to be a game changer, and the robots just add to that.” Riverview Health Chief Executive Officer Julie Nix said it also will be helpful for the county’s student-athletes and the aging population. “The money that it saves them staying out of the emergency room and the time that it saves them is really convenient and a more economical option for the patient to see the specialist they need to see on the first visit,” Nix said.

news@youarecurrent.com A coalition of healthcare, nonprofit, agricultural and community organizations has launched a six-month Food is Medicine initiative designed to improve health outcomes and increase access to nutritious food for Hamilton County residents experiencing food insecurity. Facilitated by Riverview Health and a collaboration between Teter Retreat and Organic Farm, the Hamilton County Community Foundation, the Hamilton County Health Department, the Hamilton County Harvest Food Bank and partners from the Indiana Wellness Coalition, the program recognizes the connection between nutrition and overall health. The initiative was developed through months of planning and aims to demonstrate how healthcare providers, community leaders and local food systems can work together to address social determinants of health and improve outcomes for residents. Dr. Eric Marcotte, chief medical officer and practicing family physician at Riverview Health, said by combining regular medical care with access to fresh food, they can help people better manage conditions like diabetes, high blood pressure and obesity. “As a family doctor, I see every day how important healthy food is for my patients,” Marcotte stated. “Being part of the Food is Medicine program helps us do more than just write prescriptions — we can also help patients improve their diets. This program also helps patients who may not always have enough healthy food.” Program officials said it aligns with the mission of the Indiana Wellness Coalition, a community partnership focused on improving the health and well-being of Hamilton County residents through collective action, education and innovative health initiatives. Through the six-month program, participating health care providers will work closely with eligible patients to support their health goals while ensuring consistent access to healthy foods.

COMM UNI TY VO I CES

Disappointed in leadership Editor, I’m continually disappointed by State Rep. Alaina Shonkwiler (R-Noblesville), who does not, in my opinion, reflect the interests of her constituents in District 29. During her term as our state representative, Shonkwiler has voted along party lines. This has included “yea” votes on: • HB 1002 (2025), which removed vital accountability standards, dismantled structured support frameworks for children’s behavioral health and opened the door for traditional public school districts to convert into fully privatized, all-charter systems. • SB 287 (2025), which made school board elections partisan. In 2024, Noblesville voters clearly rejected a slate of GOP-endorsed, partisan-leaning school board candidates in favor of non-partisan, independent voices. Shonkwiler ignored this hard data from her own district and voted to force partisan

politics into our schools anyway. • SB 204 (2026), which weakens teachers’ unions. This is a direct slap in the face to local educators, especially given that she used to work alongside them at Noblesville Public Schools. When she had the chance to defend public schools against SEA 1 (2025), which lowered property tax values and significantly cut public school budgets, she was absent from the roll call. Her record in Indianapolis indicates her lack of support for public schools. I’d like to know if she’s in favor of the proposed Noblesville Schools referendum. Her opponent, Devon Wellington, supports our public schools. In fact, Wellington has declared education the No. 1 priority of her campaign. For Noblesville and Fishers residents in District 29, I highly recommend reading Wellington’s campaign platform at votedevon.com/platform. Curtis Honeycutt, Noblesville

A different view on LifeWise Editor, In Jessica Garten Vandergraff’s Sept. 18 letter, she admits that LifeWise is not breaking any regulations, but she still has a problem with its religious instruction during the school day, an activity protected by Indiana law. Her logic feels inconsistent. If she opposes religious instruction during the school day, then she should oppose all religious instruction during the school day. I don’t think she actually holds this view because later she writes, “We must be equally comfortable with students leaving for…other qualifying programs.” To me it seems like she assumes that the Christians of Noblesville would riot in the streets if an organization started providing non-Christian religious instruction during the school day observing all the same legal parameters. Is Christianity getting special treatment here? Nope. Organizations from other traditions are welcome to follow the same model as LifeWise. I am a Christian in our community,

and I would not be “deeply troubled” if such an organization sought to provide religious education during the school day. I might be the minority in our deeply divided nation right now, but if my child came home with a permission slip to leave school to participate in non-Christian religious education, I would consider sending her. My husband and I would discuss it, consider our child’s age and maturity and investigate if it was going to be more “education about religion” or “participation in religious activities.” We take this approach because we live in a pluralist society and believe that our children will better “Love thy neighbor” if they understand what their neighbor believes, building empathy that is vital to calming the “us vs. them” mentality that plagues our society right now. And worst comes to worst, we throw the permission slip in the trash and move on with our life. Connor Haynes, Noblesville

CO M M UN I T Y VOICE S

Why I support Noblesville Schools Editor, I don’t like taxes. As a fiscally conservative Republican, I believe government has an obligation to be disciplined with every dollar it receives. Taxes should never be taken lightly, and taxpayers deserve to know exactly what they’re being asked to support. That’s why I took a hard look at the Noblesville Schools referendum appearing on the Nov. 3 ballot. I support it not just as the mayor of Noblesville, but as someone who grew up here, benefited from the schools and whose children now attend Noblesville Schools. I attended Noblesville Schools from Hinkle Creek Elementary through Noblesville High School. The teachers who invested in me helped shape my life and career. I know firsthand what a strong school system can mean to a kid. As a child raised by a single mother, also an educator, I know the significant impact educators have on students and their families.

I also know what it means to a community. As mayor, I regularly talk with businesses considering Noblesville. One of the first questions they ask is simple: “How are the schools?” They ask because schools matter to economic development. Businesses want to locate where their employees want to live. Families consider schools when deciding where to put down roots. Strong schools help make Noblesville an attractive place to live, work and invest. For me, this comes down to a simple question: What are we willing to invest in the community we want Noblesville to be? I don’t believe fiscal conservatism means saying no to every expenditure. I believe it means asking whether the investment has value. I know the value of Noblesville Schools because I lived it. As mayor, I see every day how strong schools contribute to the community we are building. Noblesville gave me a great start. That’s why I support the referendum. Chris Jensen, Noblesville mayor

Thankful for local leadership Editor, I’m a young professional who cares about Indiana and the future of our environment. I was glad to see the Aug. 27 letter to the editor from State Reps. Danny Lopez, Alaina Shonkwiler and Victoria Garcia-Wilburn seeking solutions, specifically helping families caught off guard from the recent flooding. I’d also like to shout out Carmel Mayor Sue Finkam and Noblesville Mayor Chris Jensen, who really stepped up

during and after the flood with communicative and involved leadership. As a young person, it’s very refreshing and uplifting to see officials step up and fix real problems. Thank you for your leadership! With the immediate danger in the rearview mirror, now is the time to prepare for the future. I encourage more leaders to lean into the topics of resilience and the environment. Kody W. Leach, Carmel

A young mother’s battle with breast cancer By Jessica Todd jessica@youarecurrent.com

What was supposed to be a routine afternoon attending her oldest son’s kindergarten orientation Aug. 4, 2025, turned out to be a life-changing day for Carmel resident Catherine Foster. En route to the school, the then 34-year-old mother of three received a call from her doctor informing her she had Grade 3 triple-negative breast cancer. “I was completely shocked and very caught off guard,” said Foster, 35. “I feared the what ifs and it really affected me mentally.” Her diagnosis came after she noticed a lump during a self-exam. At 10 months postpartum, she initially assumed it was a clogged duct or a hormonal shift, but she scheduled an appointment with her OB/GYN to be sure. A mammogram, ultrasound and biopsy followed, confirming the diagnosis. Part of her initial shock stemmed from believing her family had no history of cancer, a misconception that evaporated about a month later when genetic testing revealed she carries the BRCA1 gene mutation. The inherited change prevents the gene from repairing damaged DNA, elevating lifetime

risks for several cancers. Although her mother has never been diagnosed with cancer, the mutation was passed down through her maternal grandfather’s side. “Her dad had prostate cancer, her uncle had breast cancer and her aunt had ovarian cancer, and those are all the increased cancers you’re at risk for with a BRCA1 gene mutation,” Foster said. “Since it came from the father’s side, it kind of was missed or dismissed and never led to her getting tested.” The discovery brought a new layer of emotions. “My kids have a 50 percent chance of inheriting this gene,” Foster said. “They usually don’t recommend genetic testing until they’re about 18 because they’re really at no risk right now. With research and fundraising for breast cancer awareness, the hope is that by the time they’re 18, maybe there’s a cure or better steps.”

Facing an intense care plan, including 16 rounds of chemotherapy, a year of infusions of the immunotherapy drug Keytruda, a double mastectomy and reconstruction, Foster said the only way forward was to get through treatment. The physical toll was accompanied by a sense of isolation. While undergoing chemotherapy, Foster missed family milestones, including holiday gatherings and her son’s Christmas program. “Everyone’s around you telling you you’re so strong, so you feel like you need to be strong because they’re telling you that you are,” Foster said. “But the rest of the world was moving on, and here I was in this bubble of treatment and cancer. It’s all consuming. It almost felt like I was sitting on the sidelines, especially when it came to being involved with my kids’ lives.” Amid that isolation, she said a network of support emerged. Neighbors, friends and strangers rallied around her family with meal trains, financial assistance for medical bills and child care. Her friends and husband, Brad Foster, also helped her with cold-cap therapy, which lowers the temperature of the scalp to reduce or prevent hair loss caused by chemotherapy. “I didn’t lose my hair during treatment,” Foster said. “That allowed my husband, mom and some of my best friends to be involved with my treatment because they were the ones switching out the caps. I kind of owe it

to them for saving my hair because it’s a really important job placing those caps and how tight they are.” Foster completed chemotherapy Jan. 20 and underwent a double mastectomy March 3, receiving the news that she was cancer-free after post-surgical pathology showed no detectable disease. As she looks past treatment, she is focused on emotional recovery and regaining a sense of normalcy. “I kind of had my head down and was going through the motions during treatment, and now it’s just kind of like, ‘Wow, I can’t believe that happened,’” Foster said. “I’m trying to process all that, but also getting back to living my life and spending time with my kids, making new memories and trying not to let the thoughts of reoccurrence and cancer consume me. It’s a work in progress.” Foster stresses the importance of selfbreast exams and testing for the BRCA1 gene mutation. She also encourages women to advocate for themselves, and for anyone going through something similar, she said there is life on the other side of treatment and cancer. “It’s OK if it’s not all sunshine and rainbows,” Foster said. “It is a really hard thing to go through, especially so young, and if you’re a mother as well. There’s beautiful life ahead on the other side of all of it.” More of Foster’s story can be found on her Instagram page at @cathkayfos.

Breast cancer treatment advances include focus on quality of life Commenary by Dr. Folasade Imeokparia A breast cancer diagnosis often comes with difficult decisions, and for many women, the prospect of losing sensation after a mastectomy is one of the most overlooked challenges. Physicians at the IU Health Joe & Shelly Schwarz Cancer Center in Carmel are now offering an emerging surgical approach that focuses on preserving nerves during mastectomy and reconstruction, helping patients retain sensation and improve quality of life after treatment. Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women, and while treatment remains focused on effectively removing cancer, patients are increasingly asking how surgery might affect their daily lives long after recovery. Personalized breast cancer care includes helping patients understand their options and make informed decisions based on their diagnosis, treatment goals and personal preferences.

For some patients, a mastectomy, the surgical removal of breast tissue, may be recommended as part of their treatment plan. Traditional mastectomy procedures often involve cutting nerves that provide feeling to the breast and nipple area. While the surgery can be highly effective in treating cancer, many patients experience numbness or reduced sensation in the chest afterward. Nerve-preserving mastectomy is designed to address that concern. When it is safe and appropriate, surgeons identify and preserve important sensory nerves during surgery. In some cases, nerves may be reconstructed using grafting techniques that support nerve regeneration over time. The goal is to help patients retain or regain sensation in the breast, chest or nipple area following surgery. Rehabilitation team members also play an integral role in successful results. Although preserving sensation does not change cancer outcomes, it may have a meaningful impact on

recovery and overall well-being. Maintaining feeling in the chest area can improve comfort, body awareness and a patient’s sense of connection to their body after treatment. Not every patient is a candidate for nerve-preserving mastectomy. Factors such as tumor location, cancer stage and anatomy all play a role. Patients should talk with their breast surgeon about available surgical options to determine the approach that best supports both cancer treatment and quality of life.

Breast health at every age Commentary by Dr. R. Thomas Schmidt

ACTUALLY BE DOING?

Breast health looks different at 35 than it does at 55, but one thing remains the same: paying attention to your breasts and preventative screenings can protect your breast health and lower your risk of breast cancer. Breast health isn’t a single appointment. It’s regular screening, knowing what’s normal for your body, understanding your personal risk and everyday habits that add up over time. Life has become incredibly complicated, balancing many important things at the same time. Setting time aside for a annual mammogram is an essential priority.

Many of us grew up hearing that a monthly self-exam was essential. However, that guidance has changed over the years. The American Cancer Society no longer recommends routine self-exams as a screening tool for women at average risk. Instead, the organization now stresses breast self-awareness that focuses on being familiar with how your breasts look and feel so you notice if something changes. What hasn’t changed? If you feel a new lump, see skin dimpling or notice nipple discharge, tell your doctor immediately. The vast majority of women with breast cancer have no risk factors. Mammography is the most effective way to optimize the early detection of breast cancer.

START WITH THE MAMMOGRAM Put simply, a mammogram is an X-ray of your breast. It remains the single most effective tool for catching breast cancer early. Regular mammograms are the best way to find breast cancer in its earliest stages, often before you feel a lump. Experts recommend that women ages 40 to 74 who are at average risk get a mammogram every two years. However, your doctor may suggest a different schedule based on your personal and family history. WHEN IS MORE TESTING NEEDED? You may need further testing, such as an abbreviated MRI, if you have dense breasts. That means you have larger amounts of fibrous and glandular tissue than women with less dense breasts. Dense breast tissue can make it harder to spot a tumor with a standard mammogram. Women with dense breasts have a higher chance of developing breast cancer, so your doctor may recommend additional imaging as a result. Two follow-up options your provider might discuss are: • Breast ultrasound uses sound waves to look at areas of concern inside the breast. • Breast MRI uses magnets and radio waves to create detailed images and is typically reserved for women at higher-than-average risk. If testing finds something unusual, your doctor may recommend a breast biopsy to gather a small tissue sample and check for cancer cells. SELF-EXAM VS. SELF-AWARENESS: WHAT SHOULD YOU

KNOW YOUR RISK Age and being female are the two biggest risk factors for breast cancer, but family history matters, too. Your risk increases if you have: • A first-degree relative with breast cancer • Dense breasts • A known genetic mutation, such as BRCA1 or BRCA2 Talk with your doctor or a breast specialist about whether you should begin screening earlier or add breast MRI to your routine. EVERYDAY HABITS THAT SUPPORT BREAST HEALTH You can’t control your genetics or your age, but you can control your lifestyle choices. These tips from the American Cancer Society can help lower your breast cancer risk: • Maintain a healthy weight • Eat a diet rich in vegetables, fruits and whole grains • Stay physically active, with at least 150 minutes of moderate exercise a week. • Limit or eliminate alcohol consumption

How IWIN Foundation relieves everyday burdens for Hoosier breast cancer patients news@youarecurrent.com For women battling breast cancer, medical treatment is often only half the fight. Beyond doctor appointments and chemotherapy lies the profound physical, mental and emotional toll of a diagnosis — along with the quiet, daily pressure of keeping a household running. Patients face the reality of paying for gas to travel to radiation, putting groceries on the table, or finding childcare when energy is depleted. For 25 years, the Indiana Women in Need Foundation has filled that gap. Founded after a dear friend and co-worker was diagnosed with breast cancer, IWIN remains committed solely to supporting breast cancer patients during active treatment across all 92 Indiana counties. By funding everyday essentials like grocery gift cards, gas, childcare and housekeeping, IWIN works to ensure no Hoosier has to choose between recovery and daily survival. “A breast cancer diagnosis affects far more than a person’s health,” said Erin De Jong, executive director of IWIN. “Treatment can mean missed work, added transportation costs, changes in childcare needs, and the simple reality that everyday responsibilities do not stop. IWIN helps relieve some of those pressures by providing practical support such as grocery assistance, transportation, housekeeping, and other non-medical services.” According to foundation data, more than 60 percent of IWIN recipients earn less than $40,000 annually, and nearly half experience job disruption or unem-

ployment during treatment. Besides financial relief, the foundation offers a compassionate support system where newly diagnosed women are encouraged and heard by survivors who have walked the path before them. “When we can take even one burden off a patient or family, it allows them to focus more fully on treatment, healing, and the people they love,” De Jong said. “That immediate, tangible support is at the heart of our mission.” Community support powers that mission across Central Indiana. The foundation hosted its annual Pink Soirée Pajama Party fundraiser in September, bringing together 200 guests, including 48 breast cancer survivors, to connect and raise critical funds. “Events like the Pink Soirée remind us that supporting someone through breast cancer is truly a community effort,” De Jong said. “What makes the evening especially meaningful is that it creates a visible community of support

100 HOOSIERS, 100 DAYS CAMPAIGN The IWIN Foundation is calling on local residents, businesses and community groups to step up as “Community Champions” for its peer-to-peer campaign running through Dec. 21. The campaign aims to raise $45,000 to support 100 Hoosiers currently undergoing active breast cancer treatment. Donations are being matched dollar-for-dollar up to $5,000, thanks to sponsors including the Middaugh family and Harrah’s Hoosier Park Racing & Casino.

Participation is free and takes less than five minutes. Champions simply set up a fundraising page at iwinfoundation.org and share their link with friends, family and networks. “Every gift becomes practical support for a Hoosier who needs help right now,” said Erin De Jong, executive director of IWIN. For details, contact Sue Wynne, operations director, at 317-475-0565 or info@iwinfoundation.org.

around our recipients and survivors. When businesses, donors, volunteers, healthcare partners and friends all come together around the same mission, patients are reminded that there is an entire community standing beside them.” For local recipients, that community backing translates into vital relief.

“When we can take even one burden off a patient or family, it allows them to focus more fully on treatment, healing and the people they love,” — ERIN DE JONG, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR OF IWIN “IWIN helped me not stress about feeding my family during my breast cancer journey,” said Jacquee, a recipient from Hamilton County. “Even when we were unsure about what came next in cancer treatment, we knew our family was fed.”

War and Treaty set for Palladium show

The Grammy-nominated duo blends blues, country and Midwest vibes By Alex McCarthy alex@youarecurrent.com

When Michael Trotter thinks of the Midwest, he envisions lakes and “pure American living.” He also thinks about family. Trotter, one half of the Grammy-nominated duo The War and Treaty along with his wife Tanya, was born and raised in Cleveland and now lives in Albion, Mich. When The War and Treaty play at the Payne & Mencias Palladium at Allied Solutions Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel Oct. 13, they’re extending that family feel to everyone in attendance. “I just want folks to know that their kinfolk are coming to town,” Michael said. “Their favorite cousins are coming, and we’re going to really give it all. They should expect whatever they want to expect, joy, laughter, some heartbreak (and) a lot of rock ’n’ roll.” “And a country baptism,” Tanya said. That’s in reference to the country-blues duo’s newest EP, “Country Baptism,” released Sept. 4. It blends several themes, from reconciling with the past, dealing with ups and downs, happy romances, romances that might not work out and more, all in a tight 25 minutes. Although they draw inspiration from blues, soul, gospel and rock, they

have found in recent years that country music allows them to embrace all of the aspects of their personalities. “We love to have a drink every now and then, we love God, we love having fun,” Tanya said. “And I think one of the places where you can still do that and not be judged is country music. I think it’s a safe place to be able to have faith, family fun, and talk about being beautiful and sex and God all in the same thing.” Tanya is originally from the Washington D.C., area, and the pair met years ago at a show in Laurel, Md. Since then, they’ve combined their powerful voices and poignant songwriting styles into The War and Treaty, a reference to Michael’s time in the U.S. military.

Since 2016, they’ve regularly released music that blends not only their interests in life but their interests in a diverse spread of music. They’ve racked up award nominations including two Grammy nods in 2023 for Best New Artist and Best Roots song for “Blank Page.” The influence of that song, “Blank Page,” will be apparent at the show in Carmel. The song inspired two high school sweethearts in Maryland, Jack Robert and Avery Grace, to form a band together with that name. Fittingly, they’ve grown close with The War and Treaty over the years and will be opening for Michael and Tanya at the Oct. 13 show. R&B singer Jordan Babbs will perform first, followed by Blank Page before The War and Treaty take the stage. The duo have enjoyed playing in Indiana over the years. They fondly recall a coffee shop in South Bend, where they got a good reception several years ago, and Indianapolis has treated them well inside and outside the music venues. Tanya, an avid vintage shopper, had high praise for the vintage shops in town where she has bought multiple scarves in the past. More than anything, they’re excited to connect with audience members. Tickets are available at thecenterpresents.org. Even though their lives have taken them all over the world, they acknowledge that they wouldn’t be who they are today without their time in Michigan and touring around the region. “We don’t get to this path without the Midwest,” Michael said.

Actor has historical tie to ‘The Crucible’ By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Ken Kingshill has a unique connection to “The Crucible.” Kingshill has a small role as Judge Hathorne in the Main Street Productions’ presentation of Arthur Miller’s 1953 play “The Crucible” Oct. 8-18 at Basile Westfield Playhouse. The play is based on the 1692 Salem witch trials. Kingshill found out about 15 years ago that he is related to Giles Corey. “At that point, I was like if I ever get an opportunity to be in ‘The Crucible,’ I would want to do that,” Kingshill said. “Giles Corey is famous because he was put to death by weight. They put heavy stones on him, trying to get him to confess. He refused to name names and kept saying, ‘More weight’ and was ultimately killed. He’s kind of a cantankerous old farmer in the show, but he’s definitely a historical figure.” A former Westfield City Council member, Kingshill lived in Westfield for several years before moving to Whitestown. J.B. Scoble, a north Indianapolis resident, plays John Proctor, who defends those accused of witchcraft. “The range of emotions this man has during the show is vast,” Scoble said. “He cheats on his wife, and that’s kind of the undertone of his relationships with the girls. He’s a meaty character, so it’s fun putting that together.” Carmel resident Piper Williams plays Abigail Williams, one of the accusers. “My character is very vindictive,” she said. “I’m seeking out revenge for a lot of the women in the town, especially Elizabeth because I want to be with John Proctor, her husband. So, that’s kind of my motivation for the whole show.” Williams said she played a lot of villainous roles in college, but not in community theater. “I was very excited when I saw the posting for this show. I really knew that’s a role I wanted to go out for,” she said. “She almost loves power more than anything.” A 2020 Carmel High School graduate, Williams teaches first grade at Smoky Row Elementary School in Carmel. Fishers resident Megan Fridenmaker

portrays Elizabeth. “‘The Crucible’ is a show I’ve wanted to do for a long time,” she said. “We were supposed to read it my junior year in high school and I was so excited because we were going to read aloud in class ... but we pivoted at the last minute to ‘The Scarlet Letter.’ So, it’s a show I’ve wanted to do for a long time.” The role is the most challenging Fridenmaker has ever had. “It’s really intense content, but for me there is a lot of restraint that goes into portraying that. And Elizabeth, specifically, is just such a complex character,” she said. “There is a quiet strength about her. She’s a very dynamic character. There’s a lot going on in her life and her head, so finding that sweet spot without overdoing it has been a really good challenge.” Shelbyville resident Daniel Ott plays Rev. Hale, who originally supports the accusers. “But as the play progresses, he begins to feel conflicted and doubtful,” he said. “He feels some of the accusations lack merit and he doesn’t agree with how the court and judges are handling the proceedings. He’s very humanitarian.” Initially, he didn’t believe good Christians would lie, especially good Christian children. Miller wrote the play during the 1950s Red Scare, when Sen. Joseph McCarthy accused communists of infiltrating the U.S. government, military, universities and the film industry. The hearings focused on McCarthy and others trying to get witnesses to name names. For more, visit westfieldplayhouse. org.

The Indianapolis Symphonic Choir is celebrating its 90th anniversary during the upcoming season. (Photo courtesy of the Indianapolis Symphonic Choir)

Indianapolis Symphonic Choir celebrates 90 years By Alex McCarthy alex@youarecurrent.com When Michael Davis arrived at the Indianapolis Symphonic Choir 25 years ago, he thought his work was going to be all about the music. As ISC celebrates its 90th year with an upcoming season entitled “Then, Now, and Always,” Davis acknowledges that his initial thought process was a little off. “What I have learned is that it’s all about the people and the community that’s making the music and doing it together,” said Davis, the ISC’s assistant artistic director. “That was true then, it’s true now, and because of the generosity and the visions that are out there for the organization being around for 90 years plus, makes it that ‘always’ piece.” The ISC’s season begins with not only a celebration of its 90th year, but with free performances in celebration of Davis’ 25th year. The first show of the season is “Mood Indigo” Oct. 10 at the Madam Walker Legacy Center in Indianapolis. There are two performances, at 2:30 p.m. and 6 p.m., and free registration is available at indychoir.org. Guitarists Frank Vignola and Vinny Raniolo will perform alongside the choir. The ISC has made an effort in recent years to make its music more accessible to the general public, with initiatives such as a pay-what-you-can structure for some shows to free performances. Executive Director Jennifer Cooper said she believes the most important part of

life is building relationships between people and communities, and she’s honored that the ISC can do that through chorale music. “There are so many ways you can build community,” Cooper said. “There are festivals, there’s sharing food, but for us to be able to share something as human as the voice, it’s so wonderful to use that to bring people together.” The organization has brought multiple generations together, which Davis has seen firsthand. He has seen children of previous musicians come through the program and has been floored at the importance of the organization for these families — and he’s only been at ISC for less than a third of its existence. Other shows during the “Then, Now, and Always” season include the annual “Festival of Carols” in December; a collaborative show with the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra in January; an anniversary show in early April that includes music from the past 90 years; and a show with musicians from the Indiana University Jacobs School of Music in late April. This year also marks Artistic Director Eric Stark’s 25th year with the organization, adding another layer of celebration. More details and tickets are available at indychoir.org. While the “Then” and “Now” in the season title are apparent at the performances, “Always” is the word on the minds of Davis and Cooper as they talk about the ISC. “We plan to be here forever,” Cooper said.
