Annual home tour returns to Lawton Loop in Lawrence By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com
A holiday favorite soon will return along Lawton Loop. history Arts for Lawrence will host its seventh annual Holiday Home Tour fundraiser Dec. 1. The tour allows participants to explore seven stops in the heart of Historic Fort Benjamin Harrison. The Theater at the Fort will be open to tours for the first time this year. Other stops include three former military barracks and three former officers’ quarters, which now house organizations such as Porter Books and Bread and the Village of Merici. “It’s the first year the theater will be on the tour, and we will have all of the Fort Harrison memorabilia from Fort Harrison’s historical society on display on the stage, so that’s new this year,” said Judy Byron, executive director of Arts for Lawrence. A gift shop and wine tasting will be at the Village of Merici, 5707 Lawton Loop East. A free wine tasting is included with a Holiday Home Tour ticket purchase. A free shuttle will transport attendees between destinations. The tour is selfguided. Each stop will have a ticket table, so attendees can begin their tour at any of the homes. The stops will feature live music and refreshments such as hot cider and coffee and other treats. “A greeter will tell you a little bit about the home and let you know what parts of the home are open,” Byron said. “There are monitors through the home to answer questions. You enter through the front door, exit at
the back door and once you go through the kitchen you are given a treat.” The tour takes approximately one hour. Tours are open from 4 to 7 p.m. The gift shop will be open until 8 p.m. and will feature seven different vendors selling artist’s works and other items. “All three of the doubles were once officers’ quarters, and they have been recently renovated so they are really state-of-the-art as far as kitchen and bath go,” Byron said. “They all still have the historic charm from when they were built in 1906.” Tickets are $12 in advance or $15 at the door. Advance sales end 24 hours before the tour. For more or to purchase tickets, visit artsforlawrence.org.

Holy Spirit Parish at Geist Catholic Church is celebrating 20 years of peer faith support and guidance through its Stephen Ministry program. The international program is offered to Holy Spirit at Geist members and their adult family members who may not be parish members. Pastoral Associate Greg Bowman said the program has served 500 people at Holy Spirit Parish at Geist since it began in 1999. “It’s a one-on-one ministry, and we give volunteers training and listening skills and how to deal with mild depression,” Bowman said. “Someone who’s having a difficult time in life can call and say, ‘I’d like to be matched up with a Stephen Minister.’ They meet, and the idea is for the Stephen Minster to listen to them, help them process their feelings, encourage them, pray with them and just help them through that difficult time.” Bowman, a professional counselor, evaluates the person prior to connecting with a Stephen Minister. “When I’m talking to someone about a situation and they’re asking for a Stephen Minister, I try to make sure that Stephen
Greg Bowman, left, and Kathy Gurzynski brought the Stephen Ministry program to Holy Spirit Parish at Geist Catholic Church in 1999. (Photo by John Moyer Photography)
Ministers never get assigned someone who has an active addiction or someone who’s more than mildly depressed, and certainly never, ever anyone who is voicing any kind of suicidal ideation,” he said. If Bowman comes across someone who needs professional help, he connects the person with the right resources. Stephen Ministers are volunteers who receive 50 hours of training in seven months. They are supervised and undergo continued education twice a month.

Other McCordsville projects include adding Wi-Fi hotspots throughout the town, streetscape improvements and adding a trail in Old Town McCordsville. “Old Town McCordsville has no pedestrian or bicycle infrastructure of any kind in that area,” Crum said. “What we would like to see is some public investment into Old Town, and the initial thought is one, centralized trail through Old Town.” The other munincipalities plan to use the funds for community development and housing projects. Crum said the McCordsville projects will be completed even if the grant isn’t awarded. But if it is, the projects would be completed much sooner than originally planned. “The Stellar process identifies some things we know we need to do, regardless of Stellar,” he said. “The beauty of what Stellar has done for us is while we were already collaborating with the two other communities, we were not doing it at this pace or detailed level. It’s really caused us to think bigger about our partnerships and the importance of the three towns along the corridor.” McCordsville Town Manager Tonya
Galbraith said even if the region doesn’t receive the grant, the community partnerships are valuable. “Even if we don’t get Stellar, we’ve developed these wonderful partnerships with New Pal and Cumberland that will lead us through doing other great projects and combining all of what we have together,” she said.
a shot at winning Previously, the Stellar Community Program was known for awarding grants to towns in areas more rural than McCordsville. However, when SCP required regional partnership applications, McCordsville Director of Planning and Building Ryan Crum said McCordsville’s chances of winning improved. “We have a lot of agriculture base here, but we are very much in an Indianapolis metropolitan area and very much more of a suburban-style community,” he said. “We are preparing ourselves for future growth, so we are not reacting to it but being proactive. We want to go out and manage it before it gets here and Stellar helps us do that on a much faster pace.”

ESSA Y
LE T T ER Attacks lead to discouragement, hope
False impressions Commentary by Terry Anker We live in an age of swift and irreversible judgment. Accusation, if acutely leveraged, has the effect of judge, jury and executioner. Our prejudices lead us to the warm corners of our own confirmation bias – we find and digest only that which agrees with that with which we already agree. Ordinarily, inconsequential or naïve utterances are used as blunt instruments to destroy decades-long careers, family relationships and trusted institutions. The English Bard, William Shakespeare, reminded us that “suspicion always haunts the guilty mind.” But he might have added note of the corrosive effect it has on us all. Like the eroding result the irresistible forces of nature have on the seemingly impenetrable ancient stone fortresses, the constant aspersion of the detractors amongst us debases our trust in each other and in our communal organizations. Seeming truisms – trust no one – become false demigods. Can we live in the complete absence of trust? Should we? Is it even correct to imagine that not one human can be trusted – ever, in any circumstance? Regardless, we plod on, wary of the motive and intention of others. We isolate ourselves in eternally smaller identity groups, eager to exclude any who fail to conform to our increasingly doctrinaire vetting of their likely natures. The 1930s radio show character, The Shadow, claimed: “Who knows what evil lurks in the hearts of men? The Shadow knows!” Yet, given his almost supernatural deductive powers, The Shadow still had to discern between actual guilt and its mere perception. Appearances deceive us. Motives are often complicated, and things are routinely not as they seem. Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC. You may email him at terry@ youarecurrent.com.
Avoiding December disasters Commentary by Danielle Wilson This is it, people. The season of parenting Olympics is upon us, and as a 20-year survivor of the most exhausting of humor months, I’d like to offer some hard-earned advice. After all, we don’t want a repeat of 2009, do we? • Just say no. No to making an extra batch of homemade sprinkle cupcakes for your first-grader’s teacher (she wants cash, anyway!). No to hosting a mother-daughter holiday tea for Scout Troop 176. And a big, fat no to anything that involves glitter and/or licking more than 11 envelopes. • If you ignored No. 1 and said yes to Elf on the Shelf, there’s not a lot I can do for you now. My best advice is a late arrival (“Pickleknuckle’s flight was delayed. Stupid ATL”) and a fake broken leg (“Honey, it’s really hard for PK to move around. Santa said he should stay put”).
• Clearly articulate plans to all parties in advance, and if possible, in writing. Having definitive dates, times and locations ahead of time allows for the necessary mental and emotional preparation for dealing with in-laws, politically polarizing family and sugarcookie-crazed rugrats and provides opportunity for the stockpiling of Maker’s and the orchestration of multiple escape routes. • Amazon Prime. • Make lists. Check them twice. Gifts, chores, grocery, honey-do, Netflix must-watches, “Reasons I Should Be Mom of the Year,” whatever. Peace out.

Q U O T E O F T HE WEEK “In the middle of every difficulty lies opportunity.” –Albert Einstein
Editor, I attended a Community Memorial Gathering (Nov. 1) at Indianapolis Hebrew Congregation for the people who were recently killed at the synagogue in Pittsburgh. In one way, I feel discouraged at seeing acts of anti-Semitism rise 58 percent since 2016, but another part of my spirit is hopeful, and here is why. There were more than 1,000 people from all faiths being present to show their support of our Jewish brother and sisters. Recently, we saw people of all faiths build a house for a family through Habitat for Humanity. We had more than 60 people in attendance every Thursday evening of October for Carmel Interfaith Alliance’s “Meet Your Neighbor” series, where we had speakers share their beliefs and misconceptions of their faith. I am convinced that one of the best ways to decrease prejudice is helping people meet others of another culture or faith tradition. Once we get to know each other as human beings we see how much more we have in common than what divides us. Pastor Jerry Zehr, president of the Carmel Interfaith Alliance

“You need to have your hearing tested,” my wife said. “I’ve told you that a hundred times.” humor “I only remembered 60, but maybe I didn’t hear the other 40 suggestions.” I took a hearing test online. I was instructed to wear headphones and sit in a quiet room. All the rooms in my house are very quiet — even the laundry room when I am doing the wash. Hmmm, that is a little peculiar. I was prompted to click on a green button if I heard a sound. I clicked every single time because I realized this was just a scam to sell me a hearing aid, which I clearly don’t need. Sure enough, they called me 10 minutes after I finished. “Mr. Wolfsie, thank you for selecting the Republic Hearing Company.” “Wait, isn’t the election over? And I’m not Republican.” “Sir, we are calling about the hearing test you just took online.” I agreed to see their hearing loss professional. They sent me a form to fill out. SEE IF YOU MAY HAVE HEARING LOSS
since 1977
Why were they yelling at me in bold capital letters? I wanted to determine if I’m hard of hearing, not hard of seeing. I tried to give honest answers to the survey questions. Do others complain that you watch TV with the volume too high? Every night, my wife comes into the bedroom while I’m watching “The Late Show” and says, “I can’t believe how loud this is.” I know she is saying that because I can read lips. Can you hear people in another room? No. That is the major reason I went into another room in the first place. Do you sometimes hear ringing in your ears? If dog barking follows, I know it means there is someone at the door. My audiologist appointment is next week. “Does he have a good reputation?” my wife asked. “I have no idea,” I said. “I haven’t heard a thing.”

‘Best Christmas Pageant Ever’ set for CCP By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com This normally would not be the type of play that longtime Carmel Community Players board member Lori play Raffel would choose to direct. “I usually pick edgier shows, but no one would submit a Christmas show,” said Raffel, a Carmel High School graduate who lives in Indianapolis. “I don’t have any family left. I don’t go anywhere (at Christmas). I thought, ‘I’ll just bite the bullet and I’ll do the Christmas show.’” Raffel struggled finding a show she wanted to do until someone suggested she read the script. “I thought it has a great lesson to it and it’s not preachy and it’s not cheesy,” Raffel said. “It’s really funny and I think kids and adults will like it.” CCP’s production of “The Best Christmas Pageant Ever” will run Nov. 29 to Dec. 9 at Studio 37 in Ji-Eun Lee Music Academy, 10029 E. 126th St., Fishers. “The stage is bigger and there is a curtain, and for this show, the curtain is very important,” Raffel said. Raffel said she cast several members of Ji-Eun Lee Music Academy’s dance students. “It was hard to find boys (to cast),” Raffel said. “So, the Herdman family is supposed to be girls and boys but now it’s just one boy and the rest are girls.” The cast includes 12 children and five adults. The story revolves around a Christmas pageant at the church. There is a new director but the woman normally in charge breaks her leg. “They talk this poor mother into doing it,” Raffel said. “The Herdmans, kind of a welfare family with the parents not around, come because they hear at church you get refreshments for free. They show up and end up getting all the big parts.” Raffel said everyone tells the director it’s going to be a disaster and the Herdmans are bullies. “In the end, it’s the best Christmas pageant ever because everyone learns they are pretty cool kids after all,” Raffel said. Raffel said she put some singing in the

show because the cast are such good singers. Fishers resident Joe Meyers plays the pastor. His wife, Lee, plays one of the church members. “We met in 1980 playing husband and wife in a play called ‘My Daughter, Your Son,’ in Terre Haute,” Joe Meyers said. “We enjoyed it, so we made it permanent.” Joe Meyers has been acting since 1956. “I started in 1950 when I was a mere lass,” Lee Meyers said. Westfield Middle School seventh-grader Maya Davis is performing for the first time with CCP. She has previously performed with Westfield Playhouse. Davis plays Imogene Herdman. “I like that she is mean and sassy,” Davis said. “I like the change she goes through and she has some killer lines, as my mom puts it. She shows her soft side as the show goes on.” Carmel residents Steven Marsh and his wife Nikki Vrtis, along with their son, Sam Vrtismarsh, are in the production. Marsh plays Bob Bradley and Vrtis-
marsh plays his son, Charlie. Vrtis plays one of the church women. “I’m on stage a lot and don’t say anything. The times that I do talk I have some pretty funny lines,” said Vrtismarsh, a Carmel Middle School sixth-grader. Vrtismarsh played one of the Herdman children in the same play in 2014 at Westfield Playhouse. “He was one of the bratty Herdman kids. Now, he’s playing the good kid,” Marsh said. “This is the second time we played father and son on stage. We played in “The Nerd” for Westfield Playhouse.” Vrtis is making her acting debut, although she did play the Wicked Witch in a “Hansel and Gretel” play in kindergarten. “(Vrtis) started reading for people and I just kind of hooked her in,” Raffel said. Vrtis looks forward to her small part. “It’s not a huge role, so there are not too many lines to learn,” Vrtis said. “It’s just getting on stage at the right time. I’m hoping I can remember (the lines) once I have an audience.” For more, visit carmelplayers.org.

Time for ‘A Little Christmas Spirit’ By Rick Morwick • rick@youarecurrent.com Virtually all plays have a unique set of staging challenges, and Main Street Productions, Inc.’s presentation theater of “A Little Christmas Spirit” is no exception. But director Kat Watson prefers to leave it at that. “I can’t answer this one much or it will give away a bit of a surprise,” she said. “But the play takes place in both 1990 and 1950 at the same time. Now, figure that one out.” Featuring a main cast predominantly of Hamilton County residents, “A Little Christmas Spirit” begins an eight-show run Nov. 30 at Westfield Playhouse, 1836 W. Ind. 32. The final performance is Dec. 16. Written by Pat Cook, “A Little Christmas Spirit” tells the story of J.D. Morris, who has been searching desperately for a special gift for his grandson. After wandering into Nick’s Emporium and finding what he’s been looking for, he receives a surprise when he returns to pay for the item: The store is vacant. Main cast members from Hamilton County are Thom Johnson (Noblesville) as Nick; Nate Piggush (Fishers) as Jerry Morse; Cin-

DeYoung brings ‘Grand Illusion’ By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Former Styx lead singer Dennis DeYoung never understood the attraction of performing an entire album, concert start to finish, in concert. “My theory is on any album, no matter how great it is, there is always a song or two that you think, Does anybody really need to hear that one again?” DeYoung said. “The fans responded so positively, we said, ‘OK.’ My observation after having done this for a long time, the fans are pretty important. Without them, I’d be in my basement playing with my trained parrot.” DeYoung, 71, will present the 40th anniversary tour of the “The Grand Illusion” album at 8 p.m. Nov. 30 at the Palladium in Carmel. “It started as a lark on the 40th anniversary of the day it was released, July 7, 1977,” DeYoung said. “I decided to do that one show in Chicago and sold it out. People reacted so positively to it that my manager and I decided to try it again in December and sold it again. We thought, ‘What’s going on here?’ So, we decided we would offer it

to promoters, and 25 different cities came in immediately to do the show. It continues because promoters keep wanting that show.” DeYoung, one of the founding members of Styx, was fired from the group in 1999 after he wanted the other band members to postpone the tour because of an illness that temporarily made his eyes sensitive. His bandmates refused and replaced him. DeYoung, who had creative differences about the band’s direction, wrote seven of Styx’s eight Top 10 Billboard singles.

Jumbo sea scallops from Anthony’s Chophouse are served on top of a creamy cotija polenta and paired with chorizo and black beans. (Photo by Anna Skinner)
Anthony’s Chophouse
Commentary by Anna Skinner Address: 201 W. Main St., Carmel What to get: Jumbo sea scallops Price: $38 Anna’s take: Anthony’s Chophouse has a variety of terrific dishes, and I tried several, but the jumbo sea scallops were by far my favorite. The scallops are pan-seared, served on top of a creamy cotija polenta and topped with chorizo and black beans. It’s a lighter dish that doesn’t feel as heavy as steak or pork chops (which also were delicious), but the scallops are meaty and tender. Before my main course, I sampled the tuna tataki ($16), which is sushi-grade tuna with pickled asparagus and jalapenos on the side. A wasabi avocado crema adorned the plate and was a great way to add just
a touch of spice without being overbearing. The tuna tataki is dusted with a wonton crumb and the tuna slices are thick and tender. I also sampled the kale cherry salad — tossed kale, green apples, dried cherries and figs drizzled with a balsamic gastrique and lemon cherry vinaigrette. The salad combines sweet and tangy flavors. If you aren’t a scallops fan, try the Berkshire Chop ($31) as an entree. It is a center-cut, bone-in and slow-braised pork chop, served on top of puffed barley, which is the restaurant’s play on risotto. Topping the pork is a tangy balsamic gastrique and a thick, sweet strawberry chutney which makes this dish taste like the holidays. Anthony’s Chophouse serves its side dishes family style. A good option is the creamy mac ($12), a delicious combo of gemelli pasta, serrano peppers, tomato skin, gouda cream and white corn crisp on top. If you’re looking for a healthier option, try the broccolini ($11). It’s served with shaved almonds, dried cherries and a white wine vinaigrette. Suggested pairings: Anthony’s Chophouse has excellent, unique cocktail selections and I would suggest going with one of those. My personal favorites are the Chophouse Old Fashioned and the Dirty Dancer – a spicy play on a vodka martini with sriracha.

Religion in a national park Commentary by Don Knebel
tive Americans who once lived in the area. Ironically, the Virgin River that created the canyon running through the area does not have a religious significance. It was named for Thomas Virgin, the first European to see it. In 1919, the collection of rock formations with the religious names was designated a national park and named Zion, a biblical term initially associated with the Jewish Temple in Jerusalem. Zion National Park is second to Salt Lake City’s Temple Square as Utah’s most popular destination.
Zion National Park is the only place in the United States where government employees routinely lecture about God, angels, the Bible and the Book of Mormon. travel Even the park’s name has religious connotations.

In the 18th century, Mormon pioneers settled near the formations, which they thought reflected Don Knebel is a local resident the majesty of God. As a result, they called who works for Barnes & Thornthe area the “Heavenly City of God” or burg LLP. For the full column “Little Zion.” They named one formation visit donknebel.com.
