We raised more than $42,500 this year earmarked for our building fund through fundraiser events. We are a third of the way to our goal of raising $1.5 million dollars to make a physical shelter a reality. A financial gift of support from you will greatly assist in helping us reach this monumental goal.

Now imagine having seven heartworm positive dogs come to you for care, lethargic, coughing and exercise intolerant in just a month’s time. Or getting a call because someone found a week-old, flea-infested kitten – eyes just opened – in their fire pit and they don’t know how to care for it. Thanks to our foster network, the Humane Society for Boone County is there to take in and help nurse these animals to back to health in a loving, caring home and works to find each furbaby a wonderful furever home.

Imagine what we will accomplish with a building!

Your kindness and generosity also provides many services and purchases important to the continued health and welfare of each animal in our care. We urgently need your support to help more companion animals in Boone County receive a second chance to live a long, safe and secure life.

At any level of giving – here’s what your gift will accomplish: $5 – will provide deworming to a cat or dog $45 – will provide initial vaccinations to a cat or dog $50 - $75 – will provide spay/neuter for a cat or dog $100 – will provide flea and tick preventative for 10 cats or dogs $250 – will provide heartworm prevention to 30 dogs $500 – will help us reach our shelter goal more quickly!

Siro’s ribbon cutting at new store on Main Street.

SIRO’S CHIC BOUTIQUE

OVERCOMES ROADBLOCKS & SETTLES INTO NEW LOCATION Writer / Rebecca Wood Photographer / JJ Kaplan

“When you buy an old building, you prepare for the worst and hope for the best,” Barnes admits. “It was not worse than I thought.”

Good things come to those who wait.

So says Siro Derrer-Brooks.

After over a year of enduring delays and roadblocks, Derrer-Brooks’ store, Siro’s Chic Boutique, finally moved from its temporary location on Cedar Street to its permanent home at 285 South Main St. The move came later than expected. Derrer-Brooks anticipated settling into the space a year ago, but older buildings come with challenges.

Nevertheless, the building had to be totally gutted and redone to ensure it was up to modern-day codes. To complicate matters, various roadblocks popped up throughout the process, including the discovery of rusted steel beams on the ceiling and water damage.

Derrer-Brooks refers to the last year as “challenging.” She credits her faith and her church for supporting her through each obstacle.

“I have a lot of faith,” asserts Derrer-Brooks. “God was by my side.

My friends were by my side.”

So says building owner Scott Barnes.

Specifically, she recognizes her church, Sugar Plain Friends in Thorntown, and Pastor Larry Truitt with helping her throughout all Barnes, who also owns The Friendly Tavern, purchased the building of the trials. two and a half years ago. He believes the building dates back to 1924. Barnes says prior tenants included a meat processing business “It’s a very small church. Everybody in the church asked, ‘What can and a general store. An antique store was the latest occupant of the I do? How can I help?’” Derrer-Brooks says. “The support from the space, but that business cleared out by the time Barnes purchased church kept me going. They’ve been great.” the building.

Both Barnes and Derrer-Brooks agree that the interior of the building needed some serious work. Barnes says the space had not been repaired or maintained in 35 years.

Pastor Truitt helped with everything from reviewing the business plan to removing floorboards. Church members offered emotional support.

“It’s been a long process for Siro,” Truitt contends. “During her of picking out her own clothes for her boutique. struggles, people told her not to give up, to hang in there, and things would get better.”

Derrer-Brooks scoured the Northside looking for the right home for her business. She is pleased with her Zionsville location. “I feel Things have definitely improved. like Zionsville is the perfect upscale village,” says Derrer-Brooks.

Derrer-Brooks says the building has finally transformed from a disaster into 2,600 square feet of attractive retail space. She refers to her new spot as a “Destination in Zionsville.” In the décor, DerrerBrooks maintains some of the location’s historic charm. Antique meat locker doors, original to the building, adorn the walls and provide unique character to the space.

“I didn’t think it would come out the way it has. It really looks nice,” Truitt says. “It will be a great addition to the town.”

Derrer-Brooks refers to herself as an “old, hard-working gal.” She considers it a joy to work in her store at its new home.

Siro’s Chic Boutique is open Monday to Wednesday from 10 a.m. – 7 p.m., Thursday to Saturday 10 a.m. – 9 p.m., and Sunday 11 a.m.

– 3 p.m. Appointments can be scheduled to visit the store during non-business hours.

Barnes is pleased with the finished product too.

Siro’s Chic Boutique sells women’s clothing, accessories, handbags and gift items. Derrer-Brooks says her boutique offers everything from jeans to cocktail attire. Sizes span from plus sizes to petites. Currently, Siro’s sells only petite jeans, but the store plans to expand petite offerings in the spring.

“We serve every price point, but we cater towards the couture woman,” Derrer-Brooks asserts. “We try to serve different styles and sizes of women.”

Derrer-Brooks has deep fashion roots. She credits her fashionforward mother with fueling her passion and teaching her how to sew and design. At the age of five, Derrer-Brooks sewed her first dress and won a competition. She continued to sew into adulthood for her three sons.

After spending several years at home raising her boys, DerrerBrooks entered the fashion world. She served as a personal stylist and wardrober at Jacobsen and Nordstrom for over twenty years. She was named “Best of the Best for Personal Stylist”

by Indianapolis Monthly in 2007. Derrer-Brooks also penned several fashion columns for area magazines and newspapers.

Upon retiring from Nordstrom, Derrer-Brooks fulfilled her 116th St. & Olio Rd. next to Kroger lifelong dream of opening her own store.

“I can probably give you the names of most of our kids playing kindergarten basketball,” admitted the effervescent Busick, who has turned the 2014-15 Eagles into one of the most feared teams in Indiana. “Our master plan is to develop a total program from first grade to 12th grade.”

That plan starts unfolding with the Indy Hoops youth program sprinkled throughout the Boone County community.

Coaches at the two middle schools, several elementary schools and other youth programs are provided with copies of the Busick basketball manuscript, R.I.S.E. The letters translate to Responsibility, Integrity, Selflessness and Effort.

And while the Game According to Busick may include tips and strategies on playing basketball, the core message includes

College speared his first head coaching job at Argos in 1991-92. Argo was in the throes of a 28-game losing streak.

“I think I got the job because no one else wanted the job,” confessed Busick.

Busick guided the Dragons to an opening night win and two appearances in the sectional finals. But after massaging a victory-starved 11-50 record, he noted “that it was time to move on.”

“It was a wrestling school,” Busick said.

But there was a lot brewing in the Decatur County community of Berne. First, the Dilley sextuplets moved from Indianapolis to town in 1997. A year later, a fabled basketball player enrolled at Bellmont after leading his middle school team to a 43-0 record in two years. That was the same year Busick arrived and he watched in his astonishment when he saw scrawny Seth Colclasure, at 5’11” and 135 pounds, compete in a progressive summer league competition.

“He was one of Indiana’s five best shooters — ever,” remembered the coach.

During his freshman season, Colclasure was all-conference. In another year, he made a stunning 167 of 171 free throw attempts.

“When he hit the rim, the crowd would gasp,” recalled Busick of his sharpshooter, who made 511 of 546 free throws in his four seasons at Bellmont and finished second to Sean May as Mr. Basketball in Indiana.

Overall, the Braves won five sectional titles during Busick’s seven years and lost to Evansville Mater Dei in the 2004 3A state championship game. A year later, Busick and wife Cathleen yearned to return to northwest Indiana following the birth of their son, Drew. Both wanted to be closer to their families and thought Crown Point could be a long-term stop.

Following a year as an assistant at Lebanon, the Portage native headed south to North Knox. His quintet turned into a dangerous It wasn’t. foe, rising to No. 5 in the 2A state poll in his second season. A 29-16 overall mark propelled Busick into a desired commodity at “It wasn’t a good fit for Crown Point or me,” other Hoosier ports. One of those calling was Busick admitted.

But as noted in his writing of R.I.S.E., Busick persevered during the difficult session and landed the Zionsville position in 2006. His Eagle teams have gone 105-65 and the best may be yet to come during the 2014-15 season. Zionsville has been named by The Indianapolis Star as a Top 10 team and many expect the Eagles to battle Brownsburg for the Hoosier Crossroads Championship.

“He will help us greatly,” remarked Busick.

In the meantime, it will be another Valparaiso recruit, Derrik, creating matchup challenges for opponents.

“His strength and athleticism have improved,” said Busick. “He is also tougher

mentally. He has high skills and a high basketball IQ. I am not saying he will play in the NBA, but he has a shot to play somewhere professional.”

A trio of guards will balance the Zionsville attack. Marksman Jake Morris and gifted point guard Braden Hall will direct the

“Zionsville is a great academic school and we have the best kids around,” said Busick, who teams up with Cathleen in the school’s English department. “And the administration has allowed us to build the program from the ground up.”

The partnership between coach and school may pay big dividends this season. Not only is there potential for giant results in victories, but there are big Eagles in the paint. The frontline enlists 7-foot senior Derrik Smits, 6’7” Guerin Wagner and 6’5” Chris Pappas. Another big body will appear in December when 6’8”, 225-pound Cassis Smits-Francisco returns from surgery after suffering an ACL tear. SmitsFrancisco, the cousin of Smits, is already on the recruiting radar of Purdue, Indiana State, Ball State, Mississippi and Valparaiso universities.

offense most of the time, but waiting is the wings is freshman Riley Bertram who was promoted to the varsity after a sparkling summer showing.

“Jumping from eighth grade to varsity is going to be a learning curve,” Busick said.

“But he will eventually be a great guard.”

Additional strengths of the program include the coaching talents employed by the Green machine. Former Hoosier Phil Isenbarger has taught Smits the hook shot; longtime Indiana coaching legend Basil Mawbry has helped insert a troublesome zone defense; and Busick calls top aide Kevin Branigan “the best assistant in Indiana.”

And when March arrives, this could be a history-making Zionsville team. The Eagles have not won a sectional title in 20 years. But a title will not come easy.

Lurking in the sectional will be Carmel, North Central, Hamilton Southeastern, Fishers and Noblesville. Indeed, a scary proposition.

“I’ve told the team that if we can win the sectional, we can win the state,” said Busick. “I want to win the state title. We didn’t come here to win a sectional.”

LIGHTING THE WAY TO SOBRIETY When Amy Temple walked through the doors of The Salvation Army’s Harbor Light Center in April 2013, it was not her first attempt to conquer addiction. This time, though, would be different.

addiction, but each time she would fall off the wagon. “It’s true what they say about life getting worse and worse each time an addict goes back out,” she said. “Mine certainly did. My using ran rampant and completely ruled my life.”

Amy’s story looked much like any other Hoosier’s until about 14 years ago. That’s when she underwent bariatric surgery and developed medical complications during her recovery. Prescription narcotics helped with the pain, but it wasn’t long before Amy became addicted.

After an intervention by family, Amy found herself on the doorstep of the Harbor Light Center for the third time. Though embarrassed and filled with shame, Amy was welcomed with open arms. She saw this as her last chance to reclaim her life.

The facility addresses the medical, psychological, emotional and spiritual needs of its clients. From detox to 12-step classes and “I was never one of those addicts who was in denial about having a problem,” Amy explains. “That was apparent to me fairly early. What counseling to chaplaincy, the program works with each individual I was in denial about was that I could control my using or get clean to create a unique path to a successful recovery. without working any kind of a program or without God in my life.”

“In the months before I came here, I was hopeless and suicidal,” Amy says, revisiting that heartbreaking time. “My family had had Amy began to seek help after more than eight years of active

enough enabling me. They had to love me enough to stop helping me kill myself. My willingness to do something different and their tough love helped to make the difference.”

For the first time, Amy was able to fully embrace the changes that had to be made in order to overcome her addiction. “We have so many clichés in recovery, but one of the things that’s said a lot is ‘you only have to change one thing, and that’s everything’ and that really has been true for me. I feel like everything has changed. I went from having no hope and praying to God to die every single day, to having so much hope for the future, so much hope for what God has in store for me.”

“WE HAVE SO MANY CLICHÉS IN RECOVERY, BUT ONE OF THE THINGS THAT’S SAID A LOT IS ‘YOU ONLY HAVE TO CHANGE ONE THING, AND THAT’S EVERYTHING’ AND THAT REALLY HAS BEEN TRUE FOR ME.”

Now well into her second year of recovery, Amy is still at the Harbor Light Center, but now in a supportive role. She is a Ladies Resident Assistant for the Transitional Housing Program at the facility and teaches several classes for clients going through the 12step program. As a role model for residents, she is able to encourage them in their own difficult journeys.

Amy is thankful for the supportive staff at The Salvation Army who saw her through her darkest days. “I finally have some peace and serenity in my life,” she remarks, before adding, “but God both deserves and gets all the praise and all the glory for my transformation.”

IT’S TIME TO END THE WAR ON FAT Writer / Dr. Christy Watson

How many times have you read or been told that fat is enemy No. 1 and should be avoided? Diets are simply based on calories in versus calories out and all calories were created equal. This was the message given to the public in the early ’80s. The dietary food pyramid was based on grains and carbohydrates, with little fat or protein. It was a diet that was supposed to make us healthier, to lower our risk of heart disease.

Twenty years later the results are in, and the low-fat experiment was a failure of epic proportion. Americans are sicker and more overweight than at any time in history.

Obesity is not just an epidemic;v it’s a pandemic.

There are only three macronutrients – fat, carbohydrates and protein. Our dietary intake of them must equal a total of 100 percent. If we lower one, by definition we have to increase at least one of the others

to keep the total the same. Without fat, something had to be added.

The scientific concept seemed to make some sense – if we limited saturated fats in our diet, then it would reduce “fat” in our bodies in the form of cholesterol. The idea was that we would replace saturated fats with healthy fruits and vegetables. But that wasn’t the case. Refined, processed carbohydrates and added sugars replaced fats that should have been a part of a balanced diet. These carbs were found in wheat bread, low-fat crackers and pasta. These sugars caused our blood chemistry to change, which caused us to store energy and gain weight. This also increased our hunger, which made it even more difficult to lose weight. It created a vicious cycle and has had devastating consequences to our health.

How did this happen? Can fat free bread and corn be sugars? Yes, they can. To our bodies, a low fat bagel is no different than a TOWNEPOST NETWORK / DECEMBER 2014 / TownePost.com

bag of skittles. A calorie is NOT a calorie.

Since 1970, egg consumption is down 21 percent and refined white sugar is down 35 percent. Yet high-fructose corn syrup is up 8,853 percent, and corn products, 198 percent. These are the processed food products that the food industry used to replace fat. In that same period, there was a 42 percent increase in calories from flour and cereals.

As a result, consumers unknowingly increased caloric intake from 2,109 calories per day in 1970 to 2,586 calories in 2010.

From just calories (not even the kind of calorie) alone, if those were extra calories not burned off, this would contribute to ONE pound of weight gain EVERY WEEK! And unfortunately for us, the caloric pie (unlike the macronutrients of fat, protein and carbohydrate) is not one that must remain 100 percent. If we consume more than we need, we store that energy as fat,

which goes right to our waistline. Obesity, Type 2 Diabetes and high triglycerides are the result, and it happens with little to no involvement of “evil” dietary fat!

So what is really going on inside our bodies in regard to proteins, carbohydrates and fats?

Think of your body’s metabolism as a fire.

It has to be stoked to keep the fire going.

If it doesn’t, then it starts to die down. We can stoke the fire in different ways. When we give our body sugar, we get a quick burst of energy, and our body uses some of this for basic functioning of our organs. The rest – usually quite a bit – gets stored. This is quick fuel for our cells. When this quick energy is used up and put in storage, our body thinks it is starving because there is no usable energy around. It tells our brain that it needs more energy, that we are hungry; even though we just ate and there was plenty of energy there. Therefore, we are constantly hungry and storing away more energy. And we never burn the extra because we never force our body to use an alternative fuel source.

When sugars are withheld from the diet, and we stop living on quick sugar metabolism, our body quickly figures out that it needs a fuel source. It turns to the most abundant supply of energy all of us have – our fat cells! This is called nutritional ketosis. And remember, in keeping with the 100 percent total for macronutrients, if one goes down, at least one other must go up.

This is where protein comes in. In simple terms, proteins have the same caloric energy as carbohydrates. But they have a drastically different effect on our metabolism.

First, we actually burn some calories just digesting protein. Second, proteins provide building blocks for our cells, especially muscle. Third, and in my opinion most important, protein is the best appetite suppressant we have. Protein fills our stomach, and sends a true signal of satiety or “fullness.” Now this isn’t saying that you can eat more protein than you can burn, because it all gets stored if it is in excess, but it does not stimulate the quick sugar metabolism like carbohydrates.

Where does dietary fat fit in? There has always been evidence that fat was not the

problem. The Mediterranean diet includes healthy fats like olive oil, and has been proven to have many heart-healthy and waist-healthy benefits. It is a diet espoused by reputable medical groups such as the Mayo Clinic. It has been referenced in study after study as a healthy diet. Meta-analyses of even saturated fat in the diet have failed to unequivocally prove that it alone causes higher levels of heart disease and death. On the contrary, there is mounting evidence that added sugar in the diet has a direct and linear relationship to higher levels of cardiovascular disease and death.

So how can a consumer keep it all straight?

How can we guide our own diets and those of our families? First, read every label. The label on the back of the package, not the one on the front from the marketing department of the food company. And know what you are putting in your body. Just for fun, journal everything you eat in a week to get an idea of your actual caloric (energy) intake, and look at where those calories come from.

Are they sugars, flour, and processed foods?

Finally, do a little research yourself. Don’t rely on the government, the food industry or even the diet industry to safeguard your

☐ Treat each holiday as one meal only.

Do not make leftovers into several days of meals. Go back to your regular eating routine and get rid of leftovers.

Remember, waste it or waist it! ☐ Continue tracking calories and exercise more than normal. ☐ Don’t skip meals before the big holiday meal. You are more likely to overeat then. Do eat small, high protein, lower calorie meals during that day. ☐ Don’t deprive yourself. If we tell our brain we can’t have something at all, we obsess over it and end up overindulging more. Instead, allow yourself a small portion of that food, so you can stop thinking about it. But be aware of overall calories. ☐ Control your stress. We all tend to overfill our lives with commitments during the holidays. Don’t be afraid to say no. The less stress you have, the and the more likely you are to continue in your normal routine and organization.

LINCOLN SQUARE PANCAKE HOUSE OPENS 9th LOCATION Lincoln Square Pancake House is a staple in central Indiana. Stop by on a Saturday or Sunday morning and the full tables speak for themselves.

The locally owned breakfast and lunch joint has opened its newest location in Fortville where there was once the Fortville Grill.

But the building is not the only thing that transferred from the original restaurant.

James Dowless, former owner of Fortville Grill, is now the most recent chef to be hired onto the Lincoln Square team.

The 11-year-old business has seen lots of growth, as Fortville will be their ninth location. And the business hopes to still grow, but Dowless has his own ideas for what the secret to success is.

“The secret is the people that work here and the food is pretty amazing,” said Dowless.

MILITARY STUDENTS RETURN FOR THE HOLIDAYS TownePost.com / DECEMBER 2014 / TOWNEPOST NETWORK

uring the holidays, college students return home during their mid-year breaks to reunite with families and friends.

It’s also a time when Naval Academy Midshipmen return from Annapolis and convene for the annual Indiana All Academies Ball with fellow military families from Indiana.

Navy IU tailgate

This year’s chairperson of the event, Jose Alejos, has strong ties to the military and happens to live in one of the officer’s homes at historic Fort Benjamin Harrison. Alejos enlisted in the U.S. Air Force in 1979 and served 10 years. Following their father’s footsteps, his sons Marco and Andres graduated from Lawrence North High School and then were accepted into the Naval Academy and West Point respectively.

“It’s very difficult to get accepted at the academies,” said Alejos.

“Over 60,000 high school graduates apply to the academies every year with only about 3,500 getting accepted.”

Not only do applicants have to have good grades and show leadership capabilities, they also must submit letters of recommendation from U.S. Senators and Congress just to be considered for the program.

Central Indiana touts a high number of active U.S. Naval Academy and Merchant Marine “Midshipmen” as well as “Cadets,” and from the other three academies including Air Force Academy, United States Military at West Point and the Coast Guard Academy. There are 280 Hoosier Cadets and Midshipmen including those attending the associated prep schools, which will be returning home during the holidays. And while Alejos and his family love to spend time with his enlisted sons, he openly admits “they are our sons, but they belong to the USA.”

COLTS OWNER SUPPORTS MILITARY

Last year during the Navy’s sequestration, Navy Midshipmen were not allowed to fly on military planes to their away football games, including the Sept. 7 game against Indiana University. Parents of the midshipmen started reaching out to military families raising money on short notice to prepare for a tailgate event. Indianapolis Colts

owner Jim Irsay was one of the first donors to help fund the tailgate event, which attracted over 1,200 people.

“It was the largest tailgate ever hosted at IU,” said Alejos.

Dignitaries from the U.S. Navy and Department of Defense were so moved by the outpouring of support, they attended the tailgate and signed a football to give to Irsay as a token of their appreciation. The Colts owner has also sponsored the annual Indiana All Academies Ball among other military causes and functions.

INDIANA ALL ACADEMIES BALL

Military families and applicants to the academies are invited to the annual ball on Dec. 26 at The Crane Bay Event Center, located at 551 W. Merrill St. in Indianapolis.

Justice Steven David will be the keynote speaker highlighting an evening featuring a plated dinner and dancing. For other local businesses or families that would like to support these up and coming leaders in our nation’s military, sponsorships are also available to help offset the costs.

The Bourgerie’s and their staff’s work is very labor intensive. Everything is made from scratch. “If we can make it then we make it,” Debbi stated. “There are very few canned goods in this place. We buy from local markets and farmers, as much as we can.

Everything will be made on site, as we do it in Noblesville and the Zionsville location will have it’s own bakery. We take special orders for our baked goods, especially during the holidays. We also ship cookie tins all over the country. Customers can visit our locations or website for a list of our baked goods.”

While discussing the process of opening a second location, the Bourgeries spoke about their goals for Rosie’s in Zionsville and what Celebrating 25 years of marriage, Michael residents there can expect in the way of their said that one of their personal goals is to spend more time together.

Our customers are like family and even our staff has become family. They are all a blessing.”

Long-time customers Linda Sidener and Jeff Rickard shared their thoughts with me while I was visiting in Noblesville.

Noblesville resident, Linda Sidener and her granddaughter, Kenleigh, were having breakfast at Rosie’s that morning. Sidener has been bringing her grandchildren there since they opened. “I have several grandchildren under seven, and all of them love to come here,” Sidener confessed.

“Most of the staff all know us here. I’ve offered to take the grandkids to other places but they always want to come here.”

Jeff Rickard lives on the border of Carmel and Zionsville and makes the 15-mile drive just to have his favorite meal of the day at Rosie’s Place. “It’s a great place,” Rickard said. “I hope that they have the same quality of food that they have here because it’s really

good. I just had the breakfast tacos, but my standard is the spinach, tomato and feta omelet. It’s all fresh and you don’t get that in many places anymore. I am really excited that Rosie’s is opening in Zionsville because it is a really good restaurant.”

In addition to offering a fresh concept to people’s plates, the building that Rosie’s Place will be housed in is offering a fresh new “face” to Main Street after undergoing a massive renovation that was supported, in part, by the Town of Zionsville through the Zionsville Architectural Review Committee (ZARC) and their facade grant program.

Proven expertise for uncertain markets.

The ZARC chair,David Rausch spoke about the program and their work with the Rosie’s Place project. “The ZARC facade grant program has had a number of successes already in town,” Rausch stated.

“This one (Rosie’s Place) will likely be the most visible. The program was conceived in 2008 and founded in 2009.”

The program’s annual appropriations of $50,000 of funds come from the Food and Beverage Tax. The Town Council for use in downtown improvements specifically earmarks these funds from the Food and Beverage Tax. “The program has had some refinements along the way,” Rausch continued.

“It will continue to have more as it matures and as projects continue to come along. In the last two years, it has gained awareness, visibility and the success that we were hoping would be accomplished by this point. Our goals are all about Zionsville. Our town has its own character and integrity. The village business district is a small area and the buildings are old and in various

THE H.A.W.K. FOUNDATION TAKES FLIGHT Writer / Janelle Morrison

For families with children with special needs birthday parties, play dates or running errands can sometimes be challenging and require special planning in advance. The Helping All With Kindness (HAWK) Foundation was recently created by a group of Zionsville residents who came together and created some rather remarkable events for people with special needs and their families.

Their mission statements spell out their purpose. “The HAWK Foundation is not focused on our little friend Hawk. Rather, the miracle we were able to create for him was an inspiration to do it again for other families with members who have Special Needs.

We hope to insure that the Spirit of Giving happens all year long to those in need.”

One of the founding board members, Paul Dreier, explained the origin of the HAWK Foundation and why there was a need to create it in his hometown of Zionsville, Indiana.

“It all started when Leigh Ann Akard, came to me and asked, ‘Hey Paul, you are into volunteering for Special Olympics and other events for Children with Special Needs, aren’t you?’” Dreier said.

“She had an idea and that transformed into a plan. The plan was to invite some of the Lions members who had children with special needs to bring their families and friends to the park and enjoy the rides, games and dinner for free. That first event brought in seven

families (about 35 people). We fed them, got the Carnival ride owners to allow them to ride the rides for free, and some of us put up money so the children could play the carnival games for free.

Then came Christmas. We took the same plan, added Santa, a photographer to make family Christmas photos and more people.”

The result of this pilot event came the creation of the annual VIP Carnival and VIP Christmas events. Each year these events have attracted impressive numbers of attendees from all over Indiana.

“Each year we have grown more and more,” Dreier said. “This year’s VIP Carnival hosted 1,200 people. Last year’s VIP Christmas hosted 450. All these people are family members and their very special people.”

During the 2013 VIP Christmas event, Santa, Jeff Collins and HAWK board member, was asked by a 12 year-old boy for a very special wish that he then presented to the VIP organizers.

Many local residents will recall that this little boy, Hawk, became the center of media focus when the organizers of the VIP events and selfless residents came to his doorstep with a special Christmas miracle. The results made national news and shined a bright light onto Zionsville. Shortly after the HAWK Foundation, a 501(c)(3) was created and it continues to strive and insure that the VIP events occur annually and are free to the individuals and their families.

They will continue to plan for their “next miracle” and help other

VanGorder Photography – and gifts and prizes from Santa.

Zionsville resident and board member Jane Winters spoke from her family’s personal experience, having a daughter with special needs and how these events positively affect the whole family, including siblings.

This year the HAWK Foundation will host the Sixth Annual VIPs Christmas Celebration for Special Needs Families. It is a unique event designed to bring together the entire family for an evening of family, friends and fun. The goal is to eliminate all obstacles that would prevent a family with a special needs child from visiting Santa. This event was the idea of Zionsville residents, Leigh Ann Akard and Amy Lacy. One of the major attractions at the event is the sleigh ride through the woods. The sleigh ride takes the VIP’s through the woods behind the Hussey-Mayfield Library.

“We want to provide free seasonal events that include individuals with special needs and their families,” Winters said. “These events are made to say to the individuals and their families, ‘we want you there and that you are all invited.’ There’s not a lot of opportunity for individuals with special needs to interact with their peers and friends that they feel comfortable with. These opportunities are created to bring them together so that they can build these friendships and bonds just like any of us do.

“There are usually siblings involved and the attention is usually placed on the child with special needs and the sibling(s) who are not special needs and will feel that shift of attention at some point throughout their upbringing. Our goal is to incorporate them into these events as a chance for the entire family to feel included and to enjoy themselves,” she said.

The foundation is currently developing future fundraisers to raise funds and participation from area businesses and volunteers who may be interested in supporting these incredible events.

“Kite Day will operate as a fundraiser for the foundation,” Winters said. “We don’t collect funds for VIP Christmas, the VIP Fall Festival Carnival or any of our events so we will need the generosity of our community members as we continue forward.”

Dreier echoed his fellow board member’s sentiments and gratefully acknowledged the generosity of the Chickfil-A Corporation for their continuous meal donations to approximately 1,200 people at the VIP Carnival. “Chick-fil-A has just been unbelievable with their support to our event,” he said.

“We are grateful to all of our sponsors and selfless volunteers for their continued support. We invite anyone who is interested in learning more about our foundation or may need information on what services and assistance are available to their family members, to come to our VIP Christmas event.”
