$9.5M activity center proposed north of football stadium By Ann Marie Shambaugh AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com An 85,000-square-foot building has been proposed north of the Carmel High School football stadium to proEDUCATION vide indoor practice space for the marching band and winter guard, with athletics and other student groups expected to use the facility as well. Tentatively named the Greyhound Activities Center, the $9.5 million pre-engineered building is proposed to be funded through a $27 million bond that includes several other stadium upgrades previously approved by the school board, including a switch to LED lighting and a new restroom, concession and locker room building south of the stadium. The proposed activity center would include a full-size football field, with approximately 9,000 square feet dedicated for storage, restrooms and changing areas. Several CHS officials presented information to the school board April 25 about how the facility, which would replace a practice field, would benefit students and the community. “This center would give not only many of our programs but also our students oppor-

tunities that they have never had before,” CHS Principal Tom Harmas said. “That is pure excitement.” Chris Kreke, CHS performing arts department chair, said the facility would solve several problems the 350-student marching band faces each year, such as providing a place to practice during inclement weather, increasing secure storage space and providing changing rooms so students don’t have to change in a public restroom. CHS Athletic Director Jim Inskeep said the performing arts department would typically have priority in using the building, but he said it could also be used for intramural sports, expansion of the unified sports program and as a shelter for those attending football games if bad weather strikes. The project is not expected to increase the district’s tax rate. “I’m confident that we’ll continue to be in a very enviable situation in terms of our tax rate and ability to manage that in such a way that it will not go up as a result of any facility projects we’re doing,” said Roger McMichael, CCS associate superintendent of business affairs. If the project is approved by the school board, construction is expected to begin in the spring of 2023 and be complete by the end of 2024.

Hamilton County secures site for new domestic violence shelter By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com A site has been selected for the future Prevail of Central Indiana domestic violence shelter, and it’s everyDEVELOPMENT thing Hamilton County officials and Prevail staff hoped for, with ample space, proximity to nature and temporary housing solutions for those seeking shelter. Hamilton County recently purchased an 8-acre parcel for the shelter on the south side of Ind. 38 between Hague and River roads in Noblesville for $500,000. “It’s a beautiful setting, especially for something like this that can have a calming environment for people that are having to deal with stress and anxiety from having a traumatic thing happen to them like a domestic abuse,” Hamilton County Commissioner Mark Heirbrandt said. Hamilton County began seeking land for the shelter in 2021, after statistics revealed eight deaths associated with domestic violence were reported in 2020, compared to none the previous year. The figure prompted the Hamilton County Council to approve $14,000 for the design of a domestic violence shelter, an idea that’s been discussed — but not funded — for more than 20 years. RQAW, a Fishers engineering and architectural firm, is designing the facility. Prevail, which offers crisis intervention and restorative support services for adult, adolescent and child survivors of crime and abuse, is leasing a building at 1100 S. Ninth St, Suite 100, Noblesville, from former Indiana State Senator Luke Kenley for roughly $80,000 a year. If a client requires temporary housing, they are to be sent to a domestic violence shelter in Madison County or Marion County because Prevail doesn’t have housing available. Sometimes, Prevail funds hotel stays for clients in need of shelter. But that could change by fall 2023 when the new shelter is expected to open. “We want to create an environment that is very friendly and keeps families together and creates a structure that’s more beneficial in helping them to heal and have a better healing process,” Heirbrandt said. Roughly $5 million is budgeted for the project. Prevail Executive Director Melinda Konrath-Fielding said the shelter will have family bedrooms, and outdoor space for activities among other amenities.

“We really want to be able to maximize the space for clients. The building will have a lot of multi-use spaces in them,” Konrath-Fielding said. “For instance, a good example is, one thing I would really like to have is a commercial kitchen where we could have a nutritionist come in and talk about cooking, or how to cook on budget and how to maximize food stamp benefits, or how to cook healthy meals using food stamps. Those are things we weren’t able to think about and incorporate in previous renderings.” Konrath-Fielding, a Westfield resident, said the building will facilitate holistic therapies. “It is a beautiful plot of land, and nature is going to be a huge part of it,” she said. “I think we’re going to have a really neat campus that allows us to have unique services to help victims through healing from trauma.” Heirbrandt said the county has an “aggressive” schedule for the project and expects to break ground in the next five or six months. The shelter is expected to open a year after it breaks ground. It’s not certain what Prevail will contribute financially when the project is complete. “The county will own the building and we will lease it to Prevail,” Heirbrandt said. “We haven’t worked out the details yet. We are hoping to finalize them here in the next couple of weeks. We are all really excited about it because it’s something we have talked about for a lot of years. To be able to collaborate with our council and be able to have everybody be on board and agree that these services are desperately needed in our county, it makes you feel good that we are fulfilling this need.”

Dad’s decision proved right for Westfield softball player By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Westfield High School senior Avery Parker was a bit forced to trade in her pompoms. “I was a cheerleader until I was 10,” Parker said. “My dad picked me up from a tumbling class and handed me a mitt and said I was going to play softball.” It proved to be the right decision as Parker is headed to play softball for Indiana University on scholarship. Parker had two major goals, one personal and one team, entering the 2022 season. She has already smashed her personal goal of breaking the school’s all-time home run record of 25. She has nine already to give her 28 in her career. Now, she just has to get her team goal of breaking the school’s single-season record for wins, which is 16. As of April 25, the Shamrocks were 9-4 and 2-1 in the Hoosier Crossroads Conference. Through the first 13 games, Parker was hitting .526 with 28 runs batted in. “All around as a team we’ve been doing better than we have in past years,” she

ing everywhere,” she said. The 5-foot-9 Parker said her biggest improvement has been an increase in power. “I’ve built up strength as I’ve gotten older, so I’ve hit the ball harder,” she said. “A lot of balls I hit that would have been flyouts have turned into home runs. Line drives that would have been groundouts have turned into doubles and triples. My speed has developed more. When I get on base, I like to steal bases.” Parker said playing travel softball with Indiana Magic Gold has helped her see more pitchers with speed. “In travel softball, we play some Power 5 Division I commits, so they throw some heat,” she said. Parker said she has always wanted to play in the Big Ten and IU seemed like a great fit. “I know (IU’s coaches) are going to develop me in the best way,” said Parker, who plans to major in psychology and wants to become a forensic psychologist. Her brother, Aidan Parker, is a 2020 WHS graduate and an offensive lineman for Youngstown State University’s football team.

Thank you, teachers! Commentary by Dallas Shelby This week is Teacher Appreciation Week. A couple years ago, parents throughout the community got a very real EDUCATION look at just how much there was to appreciate. Our schools were closed, and parents were forced to take on a more active role in our children’s education. If you are like me, you spent a lot of time sitting at your kitchen table with your head in your hands pleading with your child to please, please just try to focus on the math facts. That was then. In the last year, we’ve seen marches and protests and letters to the editor and countless heated debates about our teachers, but these measures only seem to have made matters worse. The simple fact is we are losing teachers at an alarming rate, and the trend will very likely only worsen. A survey done by Indiana State University’s Bayh College of Education found that almost all of Indiana’s school districts (97 percent) have reported teacher shortages. According to a national survey by RAND, a

nonprofit, nonpartisan research organization, 1 in 4 teachers are considering leaving their job by the end of this school year. I am a board member of the Carmel Education Foundation, an organization that provides college scholarships for high school seniors and innovation grants for educators. During the past few years, it has been a challenge for us to award scholarships for students pursuing a career in education because of so few applicants.

Authors to highlight new books By Chris Bavender news@currentincarmel.com The Carmel Clay Public Library Foundation will host the Visiting Author Series at 4 p.m. May 6 at the LIBRARY Jill Perelman Pavilion at West Park. In its fifth year, the event will feature authors Chris Hauty and Heather Webb, who will debut new releases. Webb “We try to invite authors who have new releases to help spread the word about their new books,” said Elizabeth Hamilton, CCPL Foundation director. “Both authors have visited our library before and were very well received by our community.” Hauty’s book, “Storm Rising,” is the latest in the Hayley Chill series. The premise: a former White House intern who becomes an intelligence operative, Chill sets out to discover the truth about her father’s mysterious fate. Webb’s book, “The Next Ship Home,” examines the secrets of Ellis Island at a time when entry into the U.S. promised a better life but often delivered something different. “Chris is an incredible thriller writer, and Heather writes historical fiction,” Hamilton said. “Both genres are popular with readers in our community.”

A former high school teacher, Webb turned to writing after having a dream about Josephine Bonaparte, Napoleon’s first wife. “She took me on a tour of a chateau every night for a couple of weeks, and finally, I decided this was a very strange occurrence and checked out a biography about her at the library,” Webb said. “I read half of that biography and knew, almost like a lightning bolt, that I had to write a book Hauty about her.” Webb looks forward to returning to Carmel. “During my first visit, I was amazed by the gorgeous Carmel Clay library, as well as the number of readers and donors who turned out in support of local charities and the visiting authors,” she said. “They were friendly and interactive, and it was thoroughly enjoyable to visit with them.” A private event will be held from 3 to 4 p.m., when donors can spend 1-on-1 time with the authors. At 4 p.m., doors open to the public. Hauty and Webb will each speak for about 15 minutes followed by a Q&A session and a book signing.

1 year after 4-year-old’s cardiac arrest, Carmel family promotes community CPR, AED training By Ann Marie Shambaugh AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com Matt and Erin Uber have never been so thankful for their large family, or their community of neighbors and friends who have become like family, as they have in the last year. Some of them helped respond when the Carmel couple’s youngest daughter, Vera, suddenly collapsed from a cardiac arrest at age 4 on April 25, 2021, and all of them have stepped up to be prepared to potentially save her life if it happens again. After the cardiac arrest, Vera, now 5 and back in preschool, was diagnosed with calmodulinopathy, a rare arrhythmia syndrome caused by a gene mutation, and chances are that her heart will someday stop beating again. She has a defibrillator implanted in her abdomen to provide immediate lifesaving measures, and — in case that doesn’t work — an army of people in her life refreshing their CPR and AED skills. “If you think long enough on Vera, it will terrify you. Clinically, there is likely a future arrest. We’ve protected her the best that we’re able to. We’ve been compliant in every recommendation, yet still we could be living our lives just waiting for the next shoe to drop, and after that shoe drops, it could just keep dropping,” Erin said. “Having our vibrant extended family and community allows us the support, but also the distraction, of loving her with the people we love.” Exactly one year after Vera’s cardiac arrest, approximately 50 people with ties to the Uber family gathered at Carmel United Methodist Church for a refresher course from Carmel Fire Dept. firefighter Brent Schnepp, who responded to Vera’s emergency. The Ubers plan to mark “Vera’s Heart Day” in a similar fashion every year, but they’re also partnering with the Carmel Fire Dept. with the hope that sharing their story on a larger scale will encourage others in the community to stay up to date on their CPR and AED skills. “This is Step 1 in trying to do a little bit of extra training so we’re all a little more ready, a little more competent if something happens to your child or your friend’s child or a stranger walking down the street,” Matt Uber told those gathered at CUMC. “You can jump in and give somebody the gift of

more time and love and life.”

‘THE MIRACLE’ For Vera, an outgoing and confident child who loves dogs and building with Legos, it was her father’s quick actions that gave her another chance at life. The two had been playing tag in their kitchen after a busy day when Matt heard a thud and found Vera lifeless on the floor. Thinking she had likely smacked her head hard enough to pass out, he soon realized she wasn’t breathing. He yelled for his older daughter, Nora, to call 911 as he began doing CPR, which he remembered how to do because of a scene in an episode of “The Office” he had watched. First responders soon arrived, bringing Vera back to consciousness upon a second shock from an AED. They rushed her to Riley Hospital for Children, where doctors told the

family it appeared she did not suffer any permanent damage as a result of the cardiac arrest. That’s not often the case, as up to 90 percent of people whose heart stops die before reaching the hospital, and many of those who do survive experience brain or nervous system injuries, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. “Getting her to Riley was the miracle,” Matt said. “Her blood still moving, the oxygen moving and her being revived on our kitchen floor is what made Riley’s next wonderful steps possible, and it was really unlikely that was going to happen.” As Vera recovered, the Ubers soon realized that, because less than 80 cases of calmodulinopathy cases have been reported worldwide (and many of those discovered post-mortem), chances are slim that enough research will be done to find a cure or better treatment. So, they made the decision to implement the defibrillator — which

will be relocated within Vera’s body as she grows — and do everything they can to ensure those in her circle and beyond know how to respond if her heart stops again. Those efforts began the day Vera returned home from the hospital, as several neighbors gathered to learn CPR from Schnepp. Many of those same neighbors returned for the refresher course at CUMC. Kyle Monk, who hosted the initial CPR training in her home and is required to know how to perform it because of her occupation, said she’s made sure her children know how to respond during a cardiac emergency. “When we did (the training) at our house, my girls were there,” she said. “We tried to get all the kids involved, because they’re the ones out playing with (the Uber children).” Vera’s three older sisters, who range from 11 to 20 years old, have also become proficient in CPR and AED usage and are passionate about encouraging others to learn how to save lives, too. Nora, a junior at Carmel High School, recently worked with CFD to create a video sharing her family’s story and information on how to perform CPR and use an AED. CHS played the video April 22 for its 5,300 students. “It’s so simple. It takes maybe 10 minutes to refresh your (CPR and AED skills) and educate yourself on it,” Nora said. “It really does change the course of a lot of people’s lives.” CFD plans to repeatedly share the 10-minute video featuring the Uber’s story on the big screen in Midtown Plaza during an event — likely in late May — that will also include an opportunity for community members to learn CPR and practice on dummies. Watch the video at youtu.be/_FSS2SpwI2g.

WHAT HASN’T CHANGED So much has changed for the Ubers in the past year. But at the same time, they’re thankful for how much has stayed the same. Now that Vera has an internal defibrillator, her family has an AED that travels with them everywhere and her caregivers have the skills to respond to another cardiac arrest, life has largely returned to normal, albeit Continued on Page 19

Approximately the same time as Vera Uber’s cardiac arrest, the City of Carmel assembled a task force to determine if and how AEDs could be placed along the Monon Greenway and in Carmel’s parks. The initiative came at the request of Jeff Utzinger, a Carmel resident who suffered a cardiac arrest while jogging in 2017 and was resuscitated with CPR from a passerby and an AED in a police vehicle. After a year of planning, the city plans to unveil its first Monon Greenway SAVE station, which will include an AED and a Stop the Bleed kit to quickly treat traumatic injuries, in late May. Other SAVE stations are set to be added along the Monon at Main Street, Carter Green and near the intersection with Gradle Drive. “All of those places are great examples of areas where large groups gather, and that’s why we picked those locations first,” said Carmel City Councilor Jeff Worrell, a member of the task force. “We felt like, should there be an emergency, we’d have the largest group of people that could possibly need an AED, but also Continued from Page 18 with some restrictions on physical activity. Vera’s parents are thankful the cardiac arrest happened when she was young enough to always be near a caregiver and before it might have led to more drastic life changes. “She wasn’t 8 (years old) and had begun to love basketball and soccer,” Matt said. “We didn’t have to take that from her.” Easter, which fell a little more than a week before the first anniversary of Vera’s cardiac arrest, held special significance for the Ubers this year. As they sat in church,

a very visible location so anyone using the Monon, even if they’re 100 yards up the trail, might remember there’s an AED (nearby).” Worrell said the task force would also like to eventually have AEDs placed near the north and south ends of the Monon in Carmel and in every Carmel park. The SAVE towers, which will be temperature controlled for the sensitive equipment inside, will alert first responders when they are activated. They will also include information about Pulse Point, an app that provides information on where users can find the nearest AED at any given time. The AEDs were provided by Be Like Bill, a nonprofit founded by Utzinger and named in honor of the man who performed CPR on him; Bolt for the Heart, a nonprofit that aims to place AEDs in law enforcement vehicles; and a donation from Lindner Learning Center, founded by Vera’s grandmother. The SAVE towers are funded through donations and the City of Carmel. listening to a story of the Resurrection, they reflected through tears on how their own daughter “came back to life.” “It never occurred to us until sitting in Easter services last weekend just how close resurrection and resuscitation are,” Erin said at the April 25 event. “She was gone, and then she was not.” ON THE COVER: Erin Uber, center, Vera’s mother, demonstrates how to perform CPR at an event the Uber family and the Carmel Fire Dept. held April 25 at Carmel United Methodist Church.

Grab a cab?

Depths of pain and death

Commentary by Terry Anker “Your driver will arrive in two minutes,” says the trusty app on our phones. How wonderfully convenient. In fact, the screen also points to the live location of the vehicle, its general appearance and license plate number. Moreover, it tells us, with eerie specificity, that our ride is now “400 feet from us.” Terrific, we’ll soon be on our way, secure in our confidence of the marvels of modern technology and maybe just a bit smug in the wonders that we have delivered upon this good Earth. But the vehicle has not moved from its spot 400 feet away for five minutes now, then seven, then 10. The application allows for a text we send to the driver with a basic inquiry, “We’re here and ready, is all well there?” A few slow minutes pass. Now, we call. Naturally, the call is unanswered. Moments later, the car disappears from our screen. The transportation service offers to get us another ride in only 15-minutes. Instead, we board a waiting taxi and are on our way. As the cab is nearing our destination, a phone notification, in an odd delay, informs us that Jane canceled our earlier trip, no apology just a restatement of the obvious fact. Then, an email arrives from the rideshare company with a bill for “our” failure to complete the transport and an admonishment that we be more responsible. Then, in a multistage process with countless drop-down menus and new logins, the company says that they will refund our money because their “system investigated this issue and resolved as per (their) policy.” Do we thank them for returning money to us that they wrongly took? Do they thank us for our wasted time? Do we challenge our positive impression of the “gig” economy? Or do we simply take a taxi?

Friends, I’ve had a rather sleepless week, mostly from dealing with what I’m positive is a broken arm, but also from learning all the ways scuba can kill me. Let’s explore! First, I’ve self-diagnosed a stress fracture somewhere in my right shoulder. Based on extensive online research, including but not limited to Web MD and Wikipedia, discussions with co-workers and family members, none of whom are medical professionals, and my own anatomical intuition, I’m 80 percent confident I’ve suffered a break. It was probably back in February while doing stupid burpees or a HIIT workout without warming up properly (stretching is for the weak!). It’s continued to worsen, and now I have difficulty writing on the chalkboard, reaching over to smack my husband Doo when he’s snoring, and lifting anything heavier than my phone. I can’t get in to see a doctor until midMay, so I’m going with the broken arm theory until proven wrong. And I’m telling everyone about it. Ad nauseam. When I’m not flinching from the acute pain of turning onto my stomach at night, I’m wondering why on earth I decided to become dive certified. I mean, sure, I’ve always wanted to learn, and I did turn 50 this year – YOLO – but sweet mother, who knew how easy it was to get a brain embolism or to poison yourself with nitrogen or simply disappear in the vast ocean surrounded by jellyfish and woman-eating predators? I’m completing the online course, and every other slide is basically, “You might die!” Doo, unfortunately, offers little in the way of reassurance: “Yeah, you might.” In summary, it’s been a fairly sleepless week. Peace out.

READER’S VIEW

Artificial turf at Midtown a wise investment for city Editor, In response to Alison Brown’s recent letter to the editor, I’d like to counter her point concerning artificial turf at Midtown Plaza. As someone who has sold millions of dollars of synthetic turf for 21 years now around the Midwest, I have a solid understanding of the product. For starters, the City of Carmel is using turf with a 1-inch pile height and not using any in-filled rubber, which is very smart. That will keep the heat level down and avoid a lot of maintenance. Artificial turf in that situation will not only save the city on watering, but it also will save money from mowing and fertilizer and hold up well in a

heavy foot traffic area. Artificial turf is used in many municipal areas around the country, particularly down South and out West. There is no off-gassing without the rubber in-fill, nor will there be any chemicals given “off.” Perhaps Ms. Brown should have done her homework before criticizing the City of Carmel for their wise decision at Midtown Plaza. And, more than 200 high schools in Indiana have at least one turf field, while Carmel High School now has four! If it’s so bad for the environment, why would our public educators allow our children to be exposed to something so perilous? Bruce Heldt, Carmel

Franciscan, Forté facility now open in Carmel By Ann Marie Shambaugh AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com At the newly opened Carmel facility housing Franciscan Health Orthopedic Hospital and Forté Sports MedORTHOPEDICS icine and Orthopedics, patients can find the help they need from the first sign of an injury to ensuring they’re ready to enjoy an active lifestyle again. Franciscan, which owns and operates the hospital, and Forté, an independent physician group, partnered to develop the 166,000-square-foot orthopedic hospital and 69,000-square-foot medical office building at 10777 Illinois St. “When you bring together two big brands in orthopedics and you bring the resources and the breadth of a well-known orthopedic group and a hospital system, you really get a lot of synergy to deliver an excellent, high-quality clinical care product,” said Dr. James Callaghan, president and CEO of Franciscan Health Central Indiana. Marty Rosenberg, CEO of Forté Sports Medicine and Orthopedics, described the partnership and facility as a “rarity in the country.” “There are very few, if any, institutions where you have an independent orthopedic practice partner with a health system and come together to build a center of excellence,” Rosenberg said. “You have literally everything in the orthopedic ecosystem in one building in a unique partnership, and that’s really rare.”

The facility includes 15 inpatient and outpatient surgical suites for orthopedic procedures, 23 inpatient beds, a pre-surgery center, the Franciscan Orthopedic Surgery Center, an orthopedic urgent care clinic, a state-of-the-art center for physical and occupational therapy, an advanced imaging center and a multi-story parking garage and sky bridge. It also has a sports performance and athletic training center, complete with artificial turf, a pitcher’s mound, basketball court and a dance studio so medically trained personnel can work directly with athletes of all levels on specific motions used in their activities as they rehab. The facility also includes the Forté Orthopedic Research Institute, which provides the space, tools and technology for surgeons to learn how to perform specific procedures, including by watching a live operation elsewhere in the building on a video feed and replicating it concurrently on a cadaver. “If you’re from Crawfordsville and you’re a surgeon there and you want to come learn how to use the (surgical) robot, you’d be able to come here (and learn from) surgeons that are using it on a daily basis,” said Dr. Mark Ritter, president of Forté Sports Medicine and Orthopedics. Future plans include the addition of an on-site fitness trail for area residents and visitors to enjoy. Learn more at franciscanhealth.org/CarmelOrtho and Forteortho.com.

Art Lab settles into new space By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com The Art Lab owner Maren Bell is thrilled with her new location for multiple reasons. Bell’s business moved RELOCATION in April to the Turner James building, 1030 S. Range Line Rd. in Carmel. “I love that this building opens up to green space in Carmel Civic Square, so our camps can have areas to run around and take breaks,” Bell said. “I also love that I’ll share the building with a cafe and other creative businesses in the new Turner James building. My suite opens onto the balcony level, allowing me private access and fresh air. There are lots of windows and natural light with close access to water and bathrooms.” Bell said the new space is similar in size to her former studio on Main Street, with approximately 700 square feet. The Art Lab has a fine arts studio and offers classes for adults and children. The business turned 10 years old in March and Bell said she looks forward to celebrating the anniversary during the summer.

Amid the COVID-19 pandemic, Bell said her business shared space with The Cat Theatre and used additional shared space in the same building at 254 Veterans Way in Carmel. It has been two years since The Art Lab has had its own private space. “We are still getting set up but running classes and will have set-up fully complete by the start of our summer camps the first week of June,” Bell said. “Classes and parties are currently running in the new space.” For more, visit artlabindy.com.

Feinstein, Patty to share Palladium stage By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Michael Feinstein has been eager to have singer Sandi Patty join him again in person. CONCERT Feinstein and Patty performed a free virtual concert featuring holiday music in November 2020 amid the height of the COVID-19 pandemic. “We did a live concert a number of years ago and I was thrilled she wanted to do another one together because she is a wonderful person in addition to being an exquisite talent,” Feinstein said. An Evening with Michael Feinstein with special guest Sandi Patty is set for 8 p.m. May 7 at the Palladium at the Center for Performing Arts in Carmel. Feinstein, the Center’s artistic director, typically performs at least one concert per season. Feinstein said he and Patty will each perform a set of songs and then sing some duets. “I’ll be doing some Gershwin selections from my new recording,” Feinstein said. “I’ve got some new things I’ve been working on, a couple of new routines, some classics and some more contemporary things. I like to mix it up and bring different things to each show for those who might have seen me before (so they) can hear something that is new.” Feinstein said the show contains incredible pieces of music. “I always try to find something that will be fresh for everyone, so it’s always new,” he said. Feinstein’s latest album, “Gershwin Country,” featuring duets with a variety of stars, was released in mid-March. “One of the things that made it unique was recording it in Nashville with a Nashville band,” Feinstein said. “Then tailoring each duet to the individual personalities from Dolly Parton to Brad Paisley, Lyle Lovett, Alison Krauss, each one was tailored to that specific voice,” Feinstein said. “I’ll probably do those songs solo unless Sandi likes one of the duets and wants to do them in a performance.

haven’t discussed that.” Feinstein last performed at the Palladium with Melissa Manchester in May 2021. Feinstein said his schedule has picked up in the last few months as the pandemic has eased. “Performances have resumed and that’s been wonderful,” he said. “I’ve done a couple of shows at Carnegie Hall and been in Florida several times with different symphonies. I haven’t been back to full schedule because depending on the geographical location, some people are more or less reticent about coming out. Audiences in some places have been smaller until people feel totally comfortable about going out again for live music. It varies from place to place.” Feinstein’s cabaret at Hotel Carmichael had its grand opening in May 2021. He has similar clubs in New York, Los Angeles and San Francisco. Feinstein said each club has acts that draw better crowds than others. “In Feinstein’s club in San Francisco, we’ve learned an equal balance of local

talent mixed with international talent works best in this place,” he said. “With Feinstein’s at the Carmichael, we are still discovering what audiences like to see in the room, even though the many great performers we’ve brought in from New York and LA have done well. With our goal being serving the community and sharing the breadth of talent that is local, the balance is still being worked out.” Feinstein said one of the things he loves about the room at the Carmichael is that it was created from scratch as a nightclub and is not a space that was transformed from something else into a nightclub. “All of my friends who have come to play the room have been agog at the beauty of the place and comfort of performers on stage,” Feinstein said. “I think it will grow as more and more people experience it. I think once people are in the room, I would wager they want to come back and experience it many more times. At least, I hope so.” For more on the May 7 concert, visit thecenterpresents.org.

Cool Creek Concert Series returns

Center lands popular acts

By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com

The Cool Creek Summer Concert Series will offer an even mix of old and new in its 2022 schedule. MUSIC “Three of this year’s six musical acts will be new to the Cool Creek Concerts stage — Fleetwood Gold, The Nauti Yachtys featuring Josh Kaufman, and Stella Luna and The Satellites,” said Don Nicholls, Hamilton County Parks resource development specialist. “All in all, Hamilton County Parks is extremely excited about this year’s stellar lineup of musical artists and, of course, the fun activities that are staged in the park in conjunction with the concert performances.” Kaufman, a Carmel resident, was the Season 6 winner of “The Voice” on NBC in 2014. Nicholls said he likes the fact that the series has a unique variety and is adding a tribute band. The 28th year of the Friday night series kicks off June 17 with The Flying Toasters at Cool Creek Park, 2000 E. 151st St. The series follows with Fleetwood Gold, June 24; Toy

The Center for the Performing Arts President/CEO Jeffrey C. McDermott saw the need for more balancing CONCERTS programming at the Palladium, the Carmel venue’s 1,600-seat concert hall. “About five years ago or so, we felt we needed to step up the more commercial revenue-driving shows we were booking here,” McDermott said. “We would bring in all sorts of world-class shows that I would call mission shows, classical, jazz, songbook or international, great talents and great artists who weren’t necessarily well-known but part of our mission to bring great music and great artists to our venue. “The challenge was, without some higher revenue-producing and commercially viable artists, it’s hard to maintain that mission.” There have been some big draws like Tony Bennett, Harry Connick Jr., Weird Al Yankovic, Diana Ross, Sheryl Crow and Steve Martin and Martin Short.

The gates open at 6 p.m. with concerts starting at 7 p.m. There are kid zone activities and food and beverage vendor offerings on the concert grounds. Guests are welcome to bring lawn chairs.

said the 2021-22 season might have created the biggest buzz with attracting John Legend, who performed Oct. 20, 2021, and Sting, whose concert is set for May 8. Both concerts sold out quickly after public sales began. McDermott said the Center wanted to book Sting for more than one night, but his schedule was already filled. McDermott said Sting and Legend likely could have sold out multiple nights. McDermott said some of the more popular ticket-selling acts are added after the season is announced. “A lot of the more commercial artists might book four or five months in advance,” McDermott said. “They have to be touring in this area and we have to have the opening at the same time. It’s the combination of art, science and a little luck.” McDermott praised the contributions of Dan Kemer, who was named the vice president of programming in June 2021. Kemer, a Carmel resident who has been a vice president of Live Nation Entertainment in the Midwest, stepped into the role when Doug Tatum retired from the position.

THE BLUEPRINT • White perimeter cabinets brighten the space and provide a more modern appeal, while wood tones accent the expanded island. • The matte white brick backsplash provides a delicate texture contrast to the sleek quartz countertops. • A device-charging drawer, knife block drawer and warming drawer improve functionality. • The custom cabinets extend to the ceiling, providing additional storage and display space. • Timeless finishes, like polished nickel cabinet hardware, elevate the kitchen’s aesthetic.

Let’s talk baby talk Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt

Ouiatenon Park blockhouse in West Lafatette. (Photo by Don Knebel)

A brief history of Fort Ouiatenon Commentary by Don Knebel Fort Ouiatenon Park in West Lafayette includes a reconstructed fort that is inaccurate in its design and location, TRAVEL but nonetheless remembers an important historical site. Prior to the arrival of Europeans, Weas, a subtribe of the Miami Nation, established a village along the south bank of the Wabash River 4 miles southwest of what is now West Lafayette. In 1717, the French established a fortification named “Ouiatenon” (Wee ot teh non) across the river from the Weas. The fort became the center of fur trading, and French settlers built homes around the fort, the first European settlement in what is now Indiana. In 1761, during the French and Indian War, British forces captured Ouiatenon. Two years later, Native American forces organized by Ottawa Chief Pontiac captured Ouiatenon. A 1765 meeting between Native Americans and the British at Ouiatenon resulted in a peace treaty. Weas later used Ouiatenon for organizing attacks against settlers. In 1791, President George Washington ordered the total destruction of Ouiatenon and the Wea village. In 1909, the Daughters of the American Revolution erected a marker where they believed the French fort had stood. In 1929, Richard Wetherill, a wealthy Lafayette physician, historian and philanthropist, donated the riverfront land that surrounded the “Bank of America, is submitting a Notice of Intent to the Indiana Department of Environmental Management of our intent to comply with the requirements under 327 IAC 15-5 to discharge storm water from construction activities associated with the Commercial Building located at 11530 N. Illinois Street, Carmel, IN 46032. Run-off from the project site will discharge to Williams Creek. Questions should be directed to Brian Smallwood at Woolpert Inc., 1203 Walnut Street, Cincinnati, Ohio 45202.”

marker to the Tippecanoe County Historical Association. In 1930, he financed construction of a wooden blockhouse on the site. The area around the blockhouse, including a boat ramp and pavilions, became Fort Ouiatenon Park. In the late 1960s, archaeologists discovered the actual location of Ouiatenon, about a mile west of the park, which was named a National Historic Landmark in 2021. Historians also determined that Wetherill’s blockhouse is of British rather than French design. Despite these inaccuracies, every early autumn Fort Ouiatenon Park hosts the very popular Feast of the Harvest Moon, reenacting the annual fall gatherings between the French and Weas at Ouiatenon.

“baby’s”: My baby’s pacifier got lost in his car seat. That baby’s lung capacity is exceptional. The word “babies” on its own indicates more than one baby: The babies went through an entire crate of diapers last week. As a child, I enjoyed the cartoon “Muppet Babies.” Those politicians are acting like a bunch of babies. When multiple babies possess or own a thing or multiple things, use babies’: The babies’ strollers each got a new neon green paint job. The babies’ father had his hands full. It’s a daunting task to take on the responsibility for a new life, especially given the various levels of disarray in our nation and world. I do take solace, however, that my baby’s first word will no doubt be uttered in honor of his favorite absolute person in the entire world: mama.

My wife and I welcomed our third baby last week. Our baby boy is happy and healthy; his parents are happy and tired. Please send GRAMMAR GUY caffeine. During the nightly brain fog induced by our new “feed-change-cuddle-repeat” cycle, I’ve been thinking about a few baby-related language rules. Please excuse me if any spit-up gets on this column. Is “baby” ever a proper noun? Unless your stage name is DaBaby, the short answer is “no.” Baby is a common noun, just the same as lamp, tree and stroller are common nouns. The only instance in which “baby” becomes proper is when the word is used as a name. For instance, “Baby Sinclair” is the name of a character from the early 1990s sitcom “Dinosaurs.” How do you express something a baby owns or possesses (other than my heart when he wraps his perfect, tiny fingers around my pinky)? That certainly depends on the context. If one baby owns a thing or things, use
