ST. GEORGE MIDDLE EASTERN FESTIVAL The St. George Festival will be held Friday and Saturday, Sept. 18 and 19 for the second time at St. George Orthodox Christian Church, 10748 E. 116th St. in Fishers.

The church sponsored the Middle Eastern Festival for 17 years at its prior location in Indianapolis, and the newly revamped festival builds on that Middle Eastern heritage, offering many popular features of previous events.

"We’re still celebrating our Middle Eastern roots, but at the same time, we’re expanding the format," explains Brad Tirey, festival director. "In the past, it’s been just food, drinks and dance. We are adding other activities, demonstrations, cultural events and more attractions for youth, including hot air balloons and a carnival area."

Why change the name of the festival? Parish priest Father Nabil Hanna says, "We want to honor the various other traditions of all the people who have joined and make up St. George today. We are extremely diverse.

We have people of backgrounds from many countries across the world."

What’s different about this festival? "Two things," says Father Nabil. "One is that it’s at our new location on 116th Street with a new Byzantine temple and beautiful iconography. The Indianapolis Star called it ‘the number one thing to see or do in Fishers this summer.’ We are inviting everybody to come and celebrate with us."

Tours will explain the church’s unique architecture, as well as iconography

that was recently installed by renowned iconographer Dr. George Kordis of the University of Athens, Greece.

"Secondly, we are trying to make the festival a little more interactive; not to just come, buy food and sit down with music playing in the background. You are able to move around, see different things, different demonstrations, try out different things while you are here," explains Father Nabil.

What’s going to be the same as previous festivals? "Fantastic food, live entertainment and all of the welcoming people of St. George who want our guests to see what we’re about," says Tirey. "We hope to continue the spirit of hospitality for which we have become known."

ABOUT ST. GEORGE ORTHODOX CHRISTIAN CHURCH St. George Orthodox Church was established in 1926 and ministers to Orthodox Christians of a great diversity of backgrounds. It is a parish of the Antiochian Orthodox Christian Archdiocese of North America.

After worshipping together for more than 50 years at its prior location on Sherman Drive, the parish purchased land in Fishers and built a new Byzantine-style church building. St. George’s congregation began worshipping in their new facilities in November 2013 and held the official door opening ceremony in May 2014.

Photographer / Brian Brosmer 8 / GEIST MAGAZINE / SEPTEMBER 2015 / atGeist.com

"Last year was our very first festival in Fishers," says Father Nabil. "We were still getting accustomed to the new location, but we were very happy to be receiving all of our guests. This year, we will be making it even better"

SEPT. 18-19 Festival hours are 4-11 p.m. on Friday, September 18 and from noon to 11 p.m. on Saturday, September 19. Free admission.

Offsite parking is available for $5 at Fall Creek Community Church, 10401 E. 116th St. (within walking distance). Shuttle buses will run throughout the festival. Due to festival activities, parking at the St. George lot will not be available.

GETTING A KICK OUT OF GUNS

Tim’s Shooting Academy of Westfield is where it’s at if you want to channel your inner tough-guy…or just hone in on your shooting skills!

It’s a family-owned indoor shooting range focused on safety and education, making it one of the BEST ranges in the state. Owner Tim Tomich and his knowledgable and friendly staff care very much about the entire customer experience. From novices to expert shooters, all feel welcome!

They also operate a full-service firearms store staffed with experts to help you "safely and confidently enjoy your sport."

Everything you’ll need is available, including ammunition, personal eye and ear protection and targets. Of course, they also have a nice variety of guns and rifles for rent to anyone over 21. Our experience was no less than fantastic!

While inexperience doesn’t matter here, safety certainly does. In fact, Tim’s #1 priority is safety, starting with a short video for all shooters on gun safety and rules of the range. Range Safety Officers (RSOs) are always present to assist and answer all questions or concerns.

There are classes for beginners, women and expert shooters, including private lessons which are highly recommended for all first-timers. Why? Because while Tim’s has beginning basic pistols classes, sitting in a classroom with up to 15 people of little experience might be a little overwhelming, and private lessons allow you to advance at your own pace and comfort level. Sounds like just our speed!

Eager to begin, your Girls About Town headed to the classroom for the eight minute video presentation where we learned all about firearm safety and the Golden Rules of the NRA*.

We were educated as well on the use of the oh-so-important command, cease fire!

When a cease fire is called out, all shooters must stop immediately, keeping their firearm pointed down range, finger off the trigger and await further commands.

atGeist.com / SEPTEMBER 2015 / GEIST MAGAZINE / 11

Anyone may call a cease fire if you’re ever concerned about a safety compromise of any kind. Completing our safety class earned us our Orientation Card and access to their high-tech rifle and handgun indoor range.

Next up, getting fitted for a pistol! Adriane, one of their many NRA certified instructors, helped us choose a gun to shoot from Tim’s large selection of rentals. We both finally settled on the most popular handgun in the U.S…a Glock! We then had to select what ammunition to shoot for our levels. 9mm ammunition seemed just right, so we put on our ear and eye protective wear and headed out to the 15 indoor shooting lanes.

We were pretty impressed with the range, including the state-of-the-art ventilation and containment systems designed for comfort and, you guessed it, shooter safety!

We learned a lot in a short amount of time, including how to properly hold the pistol, load and unload the ammunition, set our

target distance, shooting etiquette and sight alignment.

We have to admit we were pretty nervous at this point….Time to pull the trigger! AND WE DID…e v e r s o g e n t l y! Both of our first shots landed in the bullseye range!

Ladies!!! The recoil on our pistols wasn’t bad at all!! Do not let your fear of the unknown stop you from experiencing this!! No one will be watching you, except the RSOs to ensure you are all safe! It was AWESOME, not to mention EMPOWERING!!! Having never shot a handgun, it was exhilarating to finally experience the thrill of shooting a pistol! We turned our fear into a great respect for guns!

What a kick!! Bucket list #10 DONE!!!

Many thanks to Tim and all his staff at Tim’s Shooting Academy of Westfield! We had so much fun! They offer annual individual and family memberships that are super affordable.

Our kids have already asked to go shooting.

Why not?! We had a BLAST! 12 / GEIST MAGAZINE / SEPTEMBER 2015 / atGeist.com

*While the NRA calls gun range etiquette "a blend of common sense, courtesy and safety," there are Golden safety rules of the National Rifle Association: q Always keep your gun pointed in a safe direction. w Keep your finger off the trigger until you are ready to shoot. e Do not load the gun until you are ready to operate it. r Know your target and beyond.

Find information on pricing and classes at TimsShootingAcademy. com or on Facebook at Tim’s Shooting Academy of Westfield.

GAME DAY COFFEE KICKS OFF WITH JEFF SATURDAY

Writer / Janet C. Striebel Photographer / Brian Brosmer

Former Colts center Jeff Saturday is going to be a spokesperson for a new national program, Game Day Coffee, which involves uniting fathers and their children around sports, events, etc. This platform serves as a means to help strengthen the relationship between fathers and their children by communicating and connecting on a deeper level compared to the ordinary, predictable, casual dialogue that normally occurs.

atGeist.com / SEPTEMBER 2015 / GEIST MAGAZINE / 15

"Game Day Coffee is about going to your local coffee shop or sitting in the comfort of your own home to talk to your children about how they are really doing," says Todd Melloh, founder of Game Day Coffee.

"It’s about going deeper with questions/topics rather than how the Colts are doing. It’s about asking them questions such as ‘How can I be a better dad? How’s your walk with Christ? Is there anything you need to tell me?"

Melloh recollects his meaningful childhood memories when he says, "While growing up, my dad and I would play hooky from work and school so we could hang out together. We would catch a baseball game, go to the movies, hit some balls together or just be together on what we called ‘our day.’ It was so special. I had my dad to myself."

Jeff Saturday with his son at Waffle House

Sadly, Melloh says that the majority of the men that he has met have had a bad relationship with their dads.

"I’m amazed. My heart bleeds for them. I wept many times as I listened to their stories. I began thinking if I were born into their shoes what my life would’ve been like."

Game Day Coffee is about going to your local coffee shop or sitting in the comfort of your own home to talk to your children about how they are really doing. It’s about going deeper with questions/ topics rather than how the Colts are doing. It’s about asking them questions such as ‘How can I be a better dad? How’s your walk with Christ? Is there anything you need to tell me? - Todd Melloh

THE PLACE TO BE Writer / Lisa Kitchen Butt Photographer / Keeley Miller

"I want people to say the place to be is Casler’s Kitchen and Bar," says Randy De John, managing partner for the Fishers restaurant located on the southeast corner of 116th Street and Olio Road. Bringing together sports watching, good food and fan camaraderie is the goal of this family-owned business.

Sports watching starts and stops here…at least for the Indianapolis Colts and Indiana University basketball. With 51 TVs, Casler’s is the fans’ choice for watching all sports and eating a reasonably priced meal.

A cornerstone of the Fishers community since April 2006, Casler’s was built on family.

Rick Fonseca took over ownership in late 2009 and has not looked back. De John, managing partner since 2009, embraces and engages all that is Casler’s.

Lastly, we treat every customer as if they were our own family," said De John.

On NFL football Sunday, fans throw footballs through a hoop, and Casler’s provides prizes such as NFL jerseys, Weber grills, free drinks, iPads and local gift cards. During IU basketball games, Hoosier faithful shoot free throws for prizes. And during every game, "The Star-Spangled Banner" is sung at halftime, adding to the non-stop entertainment and enthusiasm.

De John is no novice to running a successful restaurant. With 21 years in the restaurant business, he has a proven track record of growing a loyal following which is evident at Casler’s.

Casler’s provides 30 taps, 21 different wines and a wide and varied menu to tempt your culinary tastes.

The Hawthorns Golf and Country Club launched a new Wine Club in July, meeting the third Wednesday of every month, and is open to all members, not just their wine locker members.

The theme for August was South American gems. Six wines were presented by a sommelier who shared the regional history and origin of each ingredient inside the bottles. The Wine Club evenings include a dinner buffet.

"I love wine, but it’s the education about the wine that I enjoy," shares member Jim Martin. "It’s also seeing neighbors and friends and enjoying a lovely evening."

Wine Club

"The Club is seeing some exciting changes," shares Beverage Specialist Michelle Collins. "In addition to the Wine Club, we hope to add a Draft Beer Club once the Player’s Lounge reopens."

The renovations are currently underway, increasing the seating at the bar from nine seats to 20, and a draft beer system with six to eight beers is being installed featuring all local craft beers. The Player’s Lounge upgrade is part of a $1.2 million capital improvement campaign.

Other changes will include a new drink list and new wines.

The Hawthorns Golf and Country Club was recently purchased by Concert Golf Partners which now owns private golf clubs and resorts across the country. The Hawthorns is proud to have joined their exclusive family.

NEW YOGURTZ OPENS IN FISHERS

Micky Virdi, owner/ manager of Yogurtz in Fishers

Writer / Pat Carlini

You might say it was a case of being in the right place at the right time, but during a recent stroll to see what’s new at The Depot at Nickel Plate along 116th St. in Fishers, we peaked into the new Yogurtz and heard, "Welcome! We just opened for the very first time!"

It was their soft opening on July 15, and my 18-year-old daughter Lexi Miller and I were their very first customers! As fans of frozen yogurt, we were ready to give it a try!

The inside décor is clean and colorful with pink and lime green tiled walls and white modular seating. The back wall features a variety of flavors including traditional strawberry and chocolate to a salted caramel pretzel flavor and NSA (no sugar added) vanilla. The center of the room is filled with every topping imaginable!

Lexi swirled together coconut and chocolate topped with brownie bites, and I tried my new favorite – gluten free, fat free watermelon sorbet!

Lexi says she gives the new yogurt shop a big thumbs up! "I know it’s brand new, but it just tastes so fresh, and the variety of toppings to choose from is great!"

Owner/Manager Micky Virdi says that’s exactly what they are going for.

"We want to offer fresh frozen yogurt with four new flavors each week and a topping bar that the customer knows they can find just about anything they want!"

The "family-owned, self-serve frozen yogurt spot" also sells take home containers of yogurt and plans to be open to private parties and community events.

Yogurtz’s grand opening was slated for Saturday, July 25 in the spot just down from Brixx restaurant and next to the new Dottie Couture Boutique in the new Fishers Marketplace.

For more information, visit yogurtz.net.

NEW TOP-NOTCH EARLY CHILDHOOD PRESCHOOL EXPERIENCE AT GEIST Writer & Photographer / Jennifer Lear

Northside Indy families have a great new option when it comes to first-learning experiences for their little ones. Geist Kids Academy, a faith-based premier preschool nestled on 10 acres in the heart of Geist’s Admiral’s Bay subdivision, arrived on the scene less than 30 days ago, and area families are already flocking to register their children for the top-notch preparatory curriculum.

The preschool operates as a licensed ministry of Geist Chapel and is another facet of the church’s continued commitment to the Geist community. The preparatory academy program is geared for children 6-12 years of age. The school’s atmosphere and wellrounded curriculum are designed to address the needs of the whole child (educational, emotional and spiritual). The highly experienced staff want families to be able to think of the academy as a home away from home, a cozy sanctuary for learning, making friends and being valued as individual.

The loving staff aims to make each day special for your child through well-thought-out age-appropriate lesson plans including interactive play, exploration, STEM-based activities, early reading/ writing experiences, sensory and discovery, creative arts, dramatic play, music and many other fun activities. Successes are celebrated, fun is encouraged and birthdays are always significant.

Some of our favorite features of the new Geist Kids Academy include: • The nautical theme throughout – a great fit for the Geist area!

• Children 3 and up rotate between three classrooms each day – language arts, creative arts and science/technology/dramatic play.

• The curriculum includes virtual flights where students virtually visit other countries to explore the tastes, music and cultural.

• Healthy snacks and lunches, made from scratch, are provided daily from an on-site chef.

• Teachers are CDA certified, have early childhood education degrees or a minimum of 5 years of experience. We were impressed

that one dedicated employee has over 19 years of experience.

• The staff addresses the needs of the whole child, including things like character building.

• There are future plans to add a soccer field and outdoor play area specifically for older age groups.

Kids Academy long-term. The special offer also includes a waiver of registration and supply fees. Curious about tuition rates? Visit GeistKidsAcademy.com.

masthead neighbors fight back

Erosion Writer & Photographer / Keeley Miller

Masthead resident Hank Dragoo was watching his back yard wash away after every rain and decided to do something about it. The result was a LARE grant from the State of Indiana and eight cooperative neighbors funding an erosion control project behind their homes. atGeist.com / SEPTEMBER 2015 / GEIST MAGAZINE / 29

, Geist resident Hank Dragoo noticed slight erosion in the creek that ran through his backyard in Masthead.

Four years later, the erosion has grown to a degree that has eliminated the usage of boat docks, uprooted 100-year-old trees and exposed pipelines.

"We had a major water event nearly four years ago, and water and soil came out at that time," said Dragoo. "It has progressively been getting substantially worse. With each heavy rain, we get more and more sediment washing down. Once it starts to loosen the soil, it opens the floodgates."

Sediment has built up along the creek progressively over the years, spilling out into the cove and blocking access to the water. The severe erosion and run-off has destroyed yards, foliage, wildlife and water quality.

"What we want to do is remove all the sediment that has built up in the cove and take it off-site or use it as available resources to build a grade-stabilization structure," said Dragoo. "We will build grade-stabilization

"The Geist Coalition has been very helpful along with the Geist Harbours Property Owners Association. Both of them understand the importance of this work," said Dragoo. "It takes a unified front. Without those groups and the support of homeowners, none of this could happen."

She’ll make you feel right at home.

"If the problem is not addressed now, it will lead to even more damage. We are talking about four-foot-wide trees that will make a big impact if they go."

Despite the large degree of the erosion and amount of sediment in the cove, this same issue exists all along Geist.

"This situation is not unique along the reservoir," emphasized Dragoo.

"It is an issue that everyone who is concerned with water quality, wildlife, planting and conservancy has to be faced with. Identifying the problem and finding out how to best solve it is to present it to the right agencies."

build our nonprofit and be competitive.

We strive to find ways to stand out and still provide unique services.

“One of our strategies is to develop and maintain strong corporate sponsorships that are looking to reach and assist communities that really are underserved.

Companies like Bastian Solutions, American Structurepoint and the Indianapolis Colts organization have stepped in and offered not only financial contributions, but we will open up their businesses and give our scholars access with experiential learning trips where the students will learn about different jobs and job skills that are available to them.

This allows our kids to dream beyond their circumstances.”

Support from the local businesses is essential in sustaining organizations like DREAM Alive, and the business partners that support DREAM Alive engage because they share a philosophy with the

organization that the community’s youth is a community’s future. For example, Bastian Solutions will hire students from within the DREAM Alive program and place them in jobs within their corporation.

In addition to the business community’s support, the DREAM Alive organization recognizes the importance of having positive mentors on board to work with and help raise up their scholars.

at Sullivan’s Steakhouse in Indianapolis.

An annual event since 2004, Wishing on Stars was first hosted by former Indianapolis Colts Tight End Marcus Pollard. Fellow Colts players, Indiana Pacers, Indy 500 drivers and other local celebrities are expected to attend the event.

Dwayne Allen, Player Executive for DREAM Alive, has stepped into a leadership role within the organization to assist with Glenn’s mission. Allen, tight end for the NFL’s Indianapolis Colts, is making an impact in the lives of Indianapolis at-risk youth. Allen serves not only as the professional face of the organization but also participates in program development and implementation.

“I grew up in the inner city of Fayetteville, North Carolina,” Allen said. “My story resonates so well with the children that we impact at DREAM Alive. I spend every opportunity that I get to spend with our kids. I see so much of myself in each and every one of them. I didn’t have anyone to look up to or have someone who looked like me, who came from similar situations as me, trying to inspire me. That is why I am passionate about wanting the kids to want more in their lives.

“I want them to understand that regardless of where you come from, how you were raised or who you were raised by, you can’t allow your circumstances to dictate who you who are or who you want to be. That’s what our mission is all about. We educate the kids and provide resources and knowledge, so that they can go and be successful in their lives.”

Allen will host the annual Wishing on Stars benefit on Monday, September 14 TownePost.com / SEPTEMBER 2015 / TOWNEPOST NETWORK

The evening will feature a cocktail reception, followed by celebrity introductions, dinner and a silent and live auction. The players and other celebrities are willing to sign autographs, serve cocktails, personalize voicemails, perform guests’ favorite songs and spend time with attendees in a relaxed, enjoyable private environment of 150-200 guests.

In addition to Allen, numerous fellow Colts players are expected to attend.

Past attendees include Glenn, Pat McAfee, Tamika Catchings, Anthony Castanzo, T.Y. Hilton, Coby Fleener, Matt Hasselbeck, Dallas Clark, Peyton Manning, David Thornton, Jeff Saturday, Ken Dilger, Roy Hibbert, Reggie Wayne, Marcus Pollard, Bob Sanders, Joseph Addai, Gary Brackett, Marlin Jackson,

“By them opening their doors to our programs so that we can take the kids to different businesses around Indianapolis and around the state, we can expose the kids to things outside of the inner city. Little by little, this begins to break down the barriers of their world. We take them for walks around university campuses or to a business like WTHR or a military base to expose them,so that they can begin to dream bigger.

“As we continue to grow and obtain more funding, we can expand our reach and develop a model that is replicable in cities throughout the country. Our goal is to replicate the programs in all NFL host cities and team up with players from those teams who will then engage their local school corporations.

“Here in Indianapolis, we want to expand in all IPS schools and surrounding areas, so that we can serve the underserved and fill in the gaps, so that no child falls in between. We want to see all children have opportunities to resources that they need to become successful adults. Ultimately, that is how it should be.”

Live Your Passion.

“This is the way we wanted to live our retirement.”

-Jim and Nancy Russell

We worked hard for years in order to live the active life we wanted when we retired.

That’s why we chose Westminster Village North. Here we are able to participate in activities on and off campus, volunteer within our community and our city, and mingle with new friends and neighbors. And, there are so many clubs and interest groups that we find we are always busy. We love our beautiful apartment home and appreciate all of the benefits of living in a maintenance-free community.

Westminster Village North became our home shortly after we retired, and we wouldn’t have it any other way.

A future of possibility, a foundation of support.

GEIST RESIDENT ESTABLISHES AARON'S LAW TO FIGHT ADDICTION Writer / Kara Reibel . Photos Provided

Heroine addiction is far reaching into our communities, more than most would like to think. These opiate-based drugs are infiltrating communities, affecting good kids from good homes. After her son’s tragic death from a heroin overdose, Geist resident Justin Phillips pushed for legislation to help prevent drug-related deaths.

"Sometimes the addiction is stronger than the will to get help," shares Phillips. "I want my hindsight to help save others."

Reaching out for help isn’t easy for many with addiction issues. "We have to talk about drug addiction the same way we talk about cancer," says Phillips who founded

Overdose Lifeline, Inc. "It’s time to break through the stigma and open up a sincere dialogue to help people."

The mission of Overdose Lifeline is to carry "the message of HOPE to individuals, families and communities affected by addiction," which was the driving force behind the passage of Aaron’s Law in the last legislative session. Aaron’s Law enables anyone access to a prescription for Naloxone (Narcan), the opiate drug antidote.

To realize that vision, Overdose Lifeline is working on behalf of addicts and their families to assure adequate resources and support exists. atGeist.com / SEPTEMBER 2015 / GEIST MAGAZINE / 41

Overdose Lifeline has developed an educational program to help inform students of the risks of opioids and heroin use and provide alternatives to using drugs and alcohol in dealing with the issues, stresses and pressures facing today’s youth.

Their website contains current information regarding heroin treatment and prevention, including resources for those who may be seeking help and for caregivers. There is also a poignant video created by Verexia Studios.

"I feel blessed to have been part of this project," shares Kindari O’Connor, founder of Verexia. "It is such an important message, and we hope this opens up a dialogue about addiction and encouraging people to seek treatment."

Overdose Lifeline funds the opiate drug antidote for police departments around the state of Indiana. Aaron’s Law not only makes Naloxone available to anyone, but also makes it legal for anyone to administer the drug.

Indianapolis Metro Police Department was one of the first to train officers to implement the Naloxone administration program.

"Our southwest district piloted the [Naloxone] Narcan program for our department with widespread success," states Lt. Richard Riddle of IMPD. "We have specially trained officers in the first line of defense in saving lives."

"Help is out there. All someone needs to do is go to our website and reach out to us," shares Phillips. "We have support groups and can place families in touch with the right resources to find the help they need and deserve."

NAWBO CREATING A POWERFUL IMPACT

Executive board of the National Association of Women Business Owners.

Writer / Kara Reibel . Photographers / Kara Reibel, Brenda Staples

Since inception 40 years ago, the National Association of Women Business Owners (NAWBO) has facilitated change by creating a strong impact across the country, enabling a more equitable playing field for women-owned businesses.

"I have witnessed that within our membership, the more engaged a member is, the more she gets out of it," shares NAWBO Executive Director Mi’Chelle Bettner. "We have many opportunities to volunteer, attend events and serve on committees."

Executive Board President Kathy Cabello founded her own company, Cabello Associates, a strategic marketing consultancy The result is a ripple effect, not only benefiting women but minority working with Fortune 500 companies. Cabello is focused on business owners as well. driving businesses forward, which is her leadership theme for her Board position, by creating growth opportunities for NAWBO The roots of NAWBO began with advocacy. In the 1970s, in order members and corporate partners in their mutually beneficial for a woman to get a business loan, a man had to to sign off on it. relationship.

Realizing that women represented 54 percent of the voting public, a group of women in the D.C. area formed the first chapter of "Studies show that locally owned businesses give more to their NAWBO to positively impact public policy. communities," states Cabello. "We at NAWBO provide the support and access to resources for growing businesses."

The ripple effect of these efforts 40 years ago is still being felt in progressive waves. One of the largest, if not the strongest, chapter of Carol Curren, of Phoenix Data Corp. located in Lawrence, NAWBO is located here in Indianapolis with a strong membership emphasizes the value of networking within NAWBO, citing that of over 200 central Indiana women-owned businesses. she works with at least five companies that she met through the organization.

NAWBO has broadened their scope from only being a vehicle for changing public policy, but it is a strong networking group of "I like to work within the NAWBO family and help these dynamic, successful and highly capable women who, when gathered companies grow," shares Curren. "It also helps my company, and I in one room, create an electricity that is unmatched. enjoy helping others to further along their careers."

Each of these women is a game changer. A more intelligent, creative or professional grouping of individuals could not be found elsewhere.

Curren, a natural mentor and President-Elect of the NAWBO Board of Directors, was directly mentored by another female business owner which motivates her to give back.

SOME NATIONAL STATS: WBO STATISTICS "The relationships that develop in our organization are powerful, and it’s such a fantastic organization to be a part of," shares Bettner.

"I enjoy the camaraderie of fellow women business owners," says Jeryl Mitsch of Mitsch Designs in Carmel. "The support and encouragement is incredible! At our meetings, the energy and excitement is palpable. The Indianapolis chapter of NAWBO is looked up to as a benchmark."

Cabello’s advice to women starting their own business is, "Be prepared to work very hard and surround yourself with a good core team."

Cabello established her goals with her Presidency as the following: "My desire is for women-owned businesses to grow and flourish, to go from good to GREAT and to economically impact our city, state and nation at unprecedented levels."

You might have heard there’s a new farm in town…but let’s be honest, you’ve not been keeping up on the local farm Sure, you’ll pay a buck or two more for a Starbucks or a scene. However, our Greenfield neighbors have one very craft beer. Why? Because it tastes better. But why do we awesome farm that is now available right at your doorstep. scoff at paying more for our meat and produce? Chris shares, "Too many people think you’re an elitist when I get it. You’re thinking, "I don’t want a farm at my you spend more on better quality food for your family or doorstep." Perhaps not, but do you want local, pastureyourself. That couldn’t be further from the truth." raised, drug-free, delicious meats delivered for free? Yes please!

You might wonder why Tyner Pond’s food tastes so much better. Chris believes, "The big aspect here is we want them [the animals] to be able to express their natural behavior. What makes a pig happy vs. makes a pig stressed? Pigs are happy when they can be piggish. They are happy when they have a variety to eat, they can roam around and have lots of sunshine. We don’t want to do anything that makes the pig unhappy.

Animals living in their natural environments don’t need antibiotics pumped into them because they are far less likely to get sick.

If you appreciate quality and you want something that tastes better, treat it better."

The completely amazing part is that if you don’t believe their claims, you can check it out for yourself! The farm is 100 percent open to guests. Head on out to Greenfield, walk the farm and meet the livestock, and while you’re there, you can check out the farm store.

Better yet, stay for the weekend. Have you ever wanted to check out a farm lifestyle?

Extend your stay. Tyner Pond Farm now offers you and your family the amazing opportunity of experiencing life on the farm firsthand. You can rent their newly constructed, four bedroom, three full bath farmhouse for the weekend.

Jeff Lantz, board member of the Geist Impoundment Fund, and Jason Taylor, Project Manager from the City of Fishers, meet at the Fall Creek Road trail which will be widened to 10' for 1.6 miles, connecting the new roundabouts at 96th and Brooks School Road.

HAPPY TRAILS FALL CREEK TRAIL PROJECT BEGINS Writer / Tom Britt . Photographer / Brian Brosmer

Walkers, runners and bikers along Fall Creek Road will be happy to see the much-anticipated multi-purpose trail project start construction in midOctober. Connecting the two new roundabouts, the 1.67 mile asphalt trail will be 10-feet wide, allowing for twoway pedestrian traffic. Total price of the project is approximately $2 million which is coming from the $3.7 million "Geist Impoundment Fund" set aside after the 2010 annexation of Geist by the Town of Fishers.

52 / GEIST MAGAZINE / SEPTEMBER 2015 / atGeist.com

Director of Engineering for the City of Fishers Jeff Hill goes over the plans with Geist Magazine Publisher Tom Britt.

Pedestrian bridges with new overlooks will highlight the 10' wide trail.

Taylor and Lantz meet at Mama Bears to review the project plans on site.

atGeist.com / SEPTEMBER 2015 / GEIST MAGAZINE / 53

"It’s wide enough to get us the ability to have two way traffic, so you’re not on a four foot wide concrete walk like some of that portion around Geist and Masthead along Fall Creek [Road], and maybe you have to stop to make sure you don’t run into somebody," said Jeff Hill, Director of Engineering for the City of Fishers.

The paths are multi-use, so walking, running, rollerblading and biking are allowed on the paths. But any sort of motorized vehicle is not allowed – this includes mopeds and golf carts.

Butler, Fairman and Seufert Civil Engineers created the project plan which calls for the replacement of three wooden boardwalks along the road frontage, a new observation platform at the Geist Road causeway, trail signage, newly designed turning lanes at most "That gets the pedestrians and the Masthead entrance drives and new retaining recreational bicyclists off the road," said Hill. walls to replace the aged wooden timbers. The plans are being bid out by the City, and construction is scheduled to begin this fall.

"We have a few trees to clear down by the boardwalks near 96th Street and some utilities to move which we can get started on after October 15," said Hill.

One of Geist’s newest residents and Fishers engineer Jason Taylor will be the project manager. He lives just off of Fall Creek Road and often runs along the current trail.

Proven expertise for uncertain markets.

"You might say I have a vested interest in making this project go smoothly," Taylor said with a grin.

Hill anticipates construction to begin on the northeast end (near the Brooks School and Fall Creek Road roundabout) and continue southwest in sections.

"By tackling this in sections, it will minimize the disruption to traffic as much as possible," added Taylor.

Geist Impoundment Fund board member and Canal Place resident Jeff Lantz is happy with the projects that their committee has recommended. Besides the two new Fall Creek Road roundabout sculptures at Brooks School Road and 96th Street, their committee was also behind the wiring and lighting project nearing completion on the Fall Creek Road bridge.

"We’re hoping to have enough budget left over to add lights and electricity on the north end of the lake on the Olio Road bridge, but that project is on hold until the final bill comes in on the Fall Creek Road bridge," says Lantz.

Taylor expects the project to be completed

Ty Cook (general manager) and Gary Brackett at the Stacked Pickle.

GARY BRACKETT’S SECOND CHAPTER Writer / Ray Compton . Photographer / JJ Kaplan

During the first chapter of his professional career, Gary Brackett drew a favorable reputation of playing with passion, performing without fear and being totally prepared for game days.

Those three assets underlined the attributes unleashed by Brackett during his nine years in the National Football League when he started and starred for the Indianapolis Colts. This was the same Gary Brackett who went undrafted and was a giant question mark to make the Colts’ roster in his rookie season in 2003.

Nowadays, Brackett continues to draw a favorable rating in the second chapter of his professional life. He still plays with passion, still performs without fear and still prepares for game days. The only difference is that now the 35-year-old Carmel native oversees eight central Indiana restaurants and is mapping out strategies to grow to over 20 Hoosier dining establishments by 2019. This is the same Gary Brackett who entered the restaurant business with little background and perhaps a target to misfire on this new and challenging occupation.

This former athlete has uncovered utopia, part two.

60 / GEIST MAGAZINE / SEPTEMBER 2015 / atGeist.com

"Joe Jefferson told me that one day, we all go out into the real world," remembered Brackett of a conversation with a former teammate with the Colts, "and that I shouldn’t let football define who I was. At that point, I knew I had to come up with something that I could enjoy after football."

That opportunity came when he became partners with Chris Long, a longtime central Indiana restaurant operator who started opening up the Stacked Pickle franchise in the metro Indianapolis area. Eventually, Brackett bought out Long, took on a new partner (Jeff Smith) and dove head first into the restaurant and entertainment business.

Gary Brackett poses with a photo from his pro days.

He and Smith own six Stacked Pickles (including ones in Zionsville, Carmel, Fishers and Greenwood). Future locations are scheduled for Southport (the first free-standing facility), Westfield and West Lafayette.

And more expansion is on the horizon.

Brackett and Smith, a former executive at Outback Steakhouse, Applebee’s and O’Charley’s, plan to open up three new outlets in each of the next five years.

Possible sites include Fort Wayne, South Bend, Bloomington, Terre Haute, Plainfield and Evansville.

But both are cautious in their dreaming.

"We have a system that we believe in," said Brackett. "I am fascinated with the business, but we operate with very low margins, so there is no room for error."

Meanwhile, Brackett and Smith have expanded into another restaurant venture.

Georgia Reese’s Southern Table and Bar boasts two locations, one on 86th Street on the northside of Indianapolis and the recently opened downtown location on Washington Street.

The restaurant was named after Brackett’s 2-year-old daughter and features a soulfilled Southern cuisine that is new to the Indianapolis market. Supper (yes, supper) items include Alligator Gumbo, Country Fried Green Tomatoes and Sweet Potato Casserole. For those with less adventure, the menu also enlists blackened or fried catfish, Georgia Reese’s Fried Chicken, Grace Norma’s Shrimp and "Indy’s Best" Slow Smoked Wings.

There is frequently live music played for background. Georgia Reese’s was recently featured on Julia Moffitt’s What’s Cooking segment on WTHR, and Brackett is scheduled to be interviewed for Inside INdiana Business in August. He chats business, not football. atGeist.com / SEPTEMBER 2015 / GEIST MAGAZINE / 61

The two restaurants cater to many different dining audiences. Brackett says that for lunch, the Stacked Pickle is a place where people "want to get in and get out." The dinner crowd looks for fair pricing and quality. In a recent tasting session at the Zionsville location, Brackett and Smith tasted potential future products.

"You really want to have something on the menu for everyone," said Brackett. "We believe we need to continue to cater to more women with our salads and wraps."

As for Georgia Reese’s, Brackett admits people should be prepared to embark on an eating adventure with heavy food entrees.

"You want to loosen your belt," confessed Brackett, who proudly claims the restaurant has a sizzling Sunday brunch menu. "The recipes are original, and the restaurant is very unique. We have meatloaf, catfish, chicken, shrimp and more. It is not just another soul place."

Brackett is also not just another soldier of football. Besides graduating from Rutgers (yes, there is a Rutgers banner in the Stacked Pickle), he earned his MBA in business economics from George Washington University. He also married his wife Ragan, a Brebeuf and Indiana University graduate who is now a doctor at Community East Hospital. Besides their daughter Georgia, there’s also 6-year-old Gabriel and 3-year-old Gary, Jr. Other family members are the expanding restaurant homes. The Zionsville location sits a mile from Brackett’s Carmel home, allowing him to visit the location morning, afternoon and night.

He uses the visits to reinforce to staff his marketing and sales philosophies.

"People are searching for a purpose, and operating the restaurants is my purpose," said Brackett. "I love inspiring people and am humble enough to listen to them.

Yelling and screaming won’t make people work harder. I like to say that I may have bad moments, but I never have bad days."

Brackett maintains that focus even when he stirs late at night and goes to the computer to review sales at the restaurants.

Gary Brackett and his alma mater, Rutgers.

"P and L [profit and loss] statements are brutally honest," Brackett said. "They are your scorecards and are our wins and losses, but you also have to realize that they are not the final destination. You can make things better."

Brackett remembers lessons learned from his football career, which ended after undergoing eight separate surgeries. ("Some days, I feel like I am 51 and not 35," he admitted.)

Football can be one play a time.

Restaurants can be one customer at a time.

"Competition is tough, but competition is tough in every business," Brackett noted. "We try to value every client and try to break everything down to see what is attainable. How can we get six extra people in for lunch or dinner?"

In this area, Brackett reads and observes other success stories. For example, former NBA star Junior Bridgeman owns over 200 restaurants (many of them Wendy’s) and is estimated to be worth $400 million. However, Brackett also calls on his own persona. This one bubbles with enthusiasm…just as it did during his NFL days.

"I believe in being engaged," said Brackett after greeting guests at the Stacked Pickle on Michigan Road. "People want to be around friends and friendly people."

Just like Gary Brackett.
