Public Safety tax increase approved without Carmel vote By Sadie Hunter • sadie@youarecurrent.com The Noblesville Common Council approved a resolution that will increase the local income tax rate by 0.1 percent to help COUNTY fund 911 operations, making it the third of the “big four” cities in Hamilton County to do so. With Noblesville’s approval the tax has enough support to go into effect. The town council of Arcadia, with a population of approximately 1,600 people north of Cicero, recently voted in favor of the tax, triggering a process that required it to be voted on by the remaining seven Hamilton County city and town councils. To go into effect, councils representing more than half of the county’s population had to approve the tax increase. Noblesville represents 17.4 percent of the 50 percent threshold necessary to approve the county-wide increase. The cities of Fishers, representing 28.95 percent, and Westfield, representing 12.34 percent, also have approved resolutions on the agreement. The Town of Atlanta, representing 0.24 percent, also voted in favor of the increase at a Sept. 24 meeting. Carmel, which represents 29.11 percent of the county’s population, plans to discuss the issue at its Oct. 7 meeting even though the matter has already been decided. “I think it is important that we have the discussion. This is all about being open and transparent,” council President Jeff Worrell said, adding that he still wants to give Carmel residents an opportunity to share opinions.
Cicero, which represents 1.61 percent, was set to take a vote at its Sept. 26 meeting. Sheridan, representing 0.89 percent, will vote Oct. 2. “(The county has) talked about raising this fee for over 10 years, and 10 years ago I probably would not have voted yes, but we live in a different world than we did 10 years ago,” councilor Rick Taylor said. “I think all of us have a responsibility to keep our citizens safe and definitely keep our public safety people safe. It’s basically good for the whole community.” Historically, the county’s cities have helped subsidize the 911 dispatch center for the small towns and townships, which include Atlanta, Arcadia, Cicero, Jackson Township, Sheridan, Wayne Township and White River Township. This year, Hamilton County’s small towns and townships are responsible to jointly contribute $500,000. The county agreed to phase in the amount they owe, with $50,000 due in 2019 and the amount increasing by 10 percent each year until they are paying the full amount, with the county funding the difference. But with the new tax going into effect Jan. 1, 2020, municipalities will no longer be required to pay a fee to use the dispatch center. Carmel paid $1.8 million to use the dispatch center in 2019 and was set to pay $2.4 million in 2020. Those funds will now go to the city’s general fund and may be used to cover other public safety initiatives, although it will not be restricted to that. The public safety tax is expected to raise approximately $16 million per (Ann Marie Shambaugh contributed to this report.)

Commission urges pause on small cell towers By Ann Marie Shambaugh AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com Carmel’s Cable and Telecommunications Commission is urging city leaders to stop allowing the installation of CITY NEWS small cell towers throughout town until their impact on health can be studied. The commission sent a memorandum to the Carmel City Council Sept. 13 outlining the findings of a task force assembled to study the issue. It recommends the city “immediately pause the installation of ‘small cell’ antennas until more scientific data is available.” Telecommunications companies have been installing infrastructure throughout the nation to improve wireless networks from 4G to 5G speed, which is faster. It often uses antennas or small cellphone towers placed closer together and lower than traditional cellphone towers, sometimes on existing structures such as utility poles. But as the technology has spread, many people have raised concerns about it potentially leading to health problems. The Carmel commission’s memo points to a National Toxicology Program study released in 2018 that found “clear evidence” of tumors in the hearts of male rats exposed to high levels of radio frequency radiation used in 2G and 3G phones, technology still used for phone calls and texting. The results do not apply to 4G or 5G technologies, which were not included in the study. The memo states that the results of the study have quickly shifted prior presumptions about the safety of wireless technology. Winston Long, chairman of the Carmel Cable and Telecommunications Commission, said he is “seriously concerned” about the possible negative impact of small cell towers. “I didn’t want to be the person that is the creator of tension, but on the other hand, if I’m convinced it’s doing harm, for the benefit of our citizens and the benefit of our state and our nation, it’s time somebody stepped forward and started making this information available,” he said. In 2017, Carmel took action to exempt the entire city from a state law that allows telecommunications companies to install certain infrastructure in public right-of-ways without approval from local municipalities, but city leaders mostly cited aesthetic reasons at the time. Small cell towers may still be installed

in Carmel, but only with approval from the Board of Public Works. As of mid-June, small cell towers had been installed near Ditch Road and Ridgegate Lane and 96th Street near Cloister Drive East and West to improve existing networks, but 5G service was not available. Current has requested updated information from the city but had not received it as of press time. Sara Jo Grethlein, medical director for cancer services for the IU Health Joe and Shelly Schwarz Cancer Center at IU Health North Hospital, said she does not object to the installation of the towers based on current information. “I think that it is reasonable for us to be concerned enough when new technology arises that we need to study it. At present, there is no convincing evidence that the radio-frequency radiation that small cell towers expose us to are a risk,” Grethlein said. “For now, I trust the data and the expertise of the American Cancer Society, the Food & Drug Administration and the National Cancer Institute and don’t object to the installation of these towers.” Long said he plans to present the commission’s findings to the Carmel City Council during a presentation at its Oct. 7 meeting, which will begin at 6 p.m. at City Hall. “It’s something we can’t look away from, not if we really care about our people,” he said.

Holcomb may face challenger By Maria Cook news@currentincarmel.com The Indiana Republican Party hasn’t had a contested gubernatorial primary since 2004, but that could soon change. ELECTION Brian Roth, who lives in Westfield near the Carmel border, has announced his intention to run for governor against Republican incumbent Eric Holcomb in the 2020 primary. Roth was reared in Upland, where he attended Taylor University and earned a degree in physics before serving 22 years in the Navy. Roth and his wife, Sharice, and three children settled in Michigan for a time. After moving back to Indiana, Roth started a Carmel-based leadership development firm called Employment 2 Deployment. Roth said that his run will ensure that voters have choices. He has made an unusual promise: To donate the entirety of the salary he would earn as governor to nonprofit organizations. “We’re not looking for a job,” he said of himself and his family. “We don’t think professional politicians are the best thing for Indiana or, frankly, for the nation.

pick up a job, it’s something you get paid to do, and we’re not looking for that. We served for 22 years in the Navy, and we’re just looking for another opportunity to serve again.” Roth emphasized that his first goal is to get on the ballot. To do so, he will need to collect 500 signatures from each Congressional district. Should he succeed, Roth said his campaign will focus on a “united but independent Indiana” in which Hoosiers find their own way toward national goals. For more, visit BrianRoth.org.

Center Green now Carter’s Green
Golf 4 Heroes returns Oct. 14
By Ann Marie Shambaugh AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com
By Renee Larr news@currentincarmel.com
Ron Carter knew something unusual was going on at the Sept. 21 Carmel Farmers Market when he saw several CITY NEWS city officials and employees gathering. The Carmel Farmers Market founder and longtime city council member said he was “flabbergasted” when he learned the reason for their visit: To rename the spot where they were assembled from Center Green to Carter’s Green. “I don’t think it’s sunk in yet,” Carter said Sept. 24. “It was as much a shock as I’ve ever had in my life.” Carter, who will be leaving elected office at the end of the year after 24 years, said he intends to continue serving in a leadership role with the market. Carter said Center Green — the open space to the south of the Palladium — has been an important place throughout his years on the city council. He served on the Carmel Redevelopment Commission as it worked to improve the surrounding area and was instrumental in moving the farmers market there.
The Heroes Club of Carmel will play host to the 22nd annual Golf 4 Heroes fundraiser Oct. 14 at Prairie View ELECTION Golf Club, 7000 Longest Dr., in Carmel. The event raises money for local public safety officers. The club was established in 1996 to support first responders. Its mission is to provide financial assistance and resources for the Carmel Police Dept. and Carmel Fire Dept. as well as members of the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office and Indiana State Police who serve the City of Carmel and Clay Township. “We fund a $250,000 life insurance policy that is paid out to the family of local public safety and law enforcement if they are killed in the line of duty,” said Bill Nicholls, The Heroes Club president. The golf outing is an an opportunity for members and Carmel businesses to support local public safety officers. Participants join police officers and firefighters in a round of golf, and each player sponsors a public safety officer through golfing fees.

Carter said the fact that Carter’s Green is next to the Monon Trail is meaningful as well. “The Monon was really my first big (project) in Carmel, and so to have that honor in the heart of the city makes me feel very glad, very proud,” he said. Although Carter was shocked by the honor at the farmers market, he said his wife, Barb, found it a relief. “Barb had known for a month,” he said. “She said that Saturday night was the first time she had slept well in that month because she didn’t have to worry about me finding out.”

“What is really cool about this golf outing is that when you pay to play, you are also paying for a member of the public safety community to play as well,” Nicholls said. “My favorite thing is I’ve been fortunate enough to get to know all these wonderful men and women affiliated with these organizations.” Registration starts at 9 a.m. with a shotgun start at 10 a.m. The cost to register is $300 for one player, $550 for two players and $1,050 for a team.

BICYCLIST SETS RECORD FOR MOST MILES IN A ROUNDABOUT
Noblesville resident Dave Schweikert, 51, set a world record for the most miles completed in 24 hours while riding continuously around a roundabout by bicycling 375 miles in the roundabout at Main Street and River Road in Carmel. He began the attempt at 7 p.m. Sept. 20 and completed 3,065 laps within a day. Charitable contributions donated on site benefited World Bicycle Relief, an international nonprofit that distributes bicycles to aid in poverty relief. Schweikert raised $1,200 and said that’s enough to donate eight bikes.

A surprise 150th birthday for CHS By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com To the surprise of everyone, Carmel High School is celebrating its 150th anniversary this year. HISTORY It’s surprising because CHS celebrated its centennial 32 years ago. However, the Carmel Clay Historical Society recently completed a year-long research project on the history of Carmel schools and learned CHS was actually founded 18 years earlier than previously thought. CCHS Historian A.J. Wright has authored a book, “The Early History of Carmel Schools: 1830-1922,” which is on sale for $5 at the CCHS Monon Depot. In 1868, a Quaker congregation in Carmel called the Richland Monthly Meeting built a two-story brick schoolhouse on the southeast corner of Smokey Row Road and Range Line Road. It long has been believed the congregation operated the school as a private academy, Wright said. However, CCHS research discovered a lease document in the sub-basement of the old Hamilton County courthouse that reveals what really happened.

OBITUARY Courtney Lee Huston Webster, long time resident of Carmel, Indiana, was born on April 14, 1968, in Alexandria, Virginia to Tom Charles Huston and Brenda Lee (nee Courtney) Huston. She passed away at the age 51, on September 21, 2019. Courtney spent her childhood in the Meridian-Kessler neighborhood of Indianapolis where she attended IPS #70. Courtney’s first job was crossing guard for children walking to and from school. She and her friends walked and rode their bicycles to local pharmacies to buy candy and play video games. At night, she played flashlight tag and dingdong-ditch. Courtney loved growing up in such an idyllic place. Courtney next attended The Orchard School and Park Tudor. She enjoyed summer vacations on Fripp Island, South Carolina with her immediate family and close friends. Courtney was elected and presented as a debutante in her mother’s hometown of Shelby, North Carolina. She attended Stephens College and graduated from Indiana University, Bloomington in 1990. For decades, Courtney succeeded as a residential real estate agent. Her skills and outgoing personality led to her being a feature on HGTV’s House Hunters. Courtney’s bright smile, easy laugh, loyalty
and ability to see the positives in others captivated people. Courtney’s proudest achievements were her sons, William (Will) and Daniel (Danny). Courtney and her husband, Brian, supported their boys’ athletic and academic pursuits. Not being able to continue to see her boys grow into adulthood was her greatest regret. Courtney is survived by her husband, Brian Webster, children Will and Danny, parents Tom and Brenda Huston, brother Harry Huston (Carla), as well as extended family and friends.

NinjaZone helps spur growth of gymnastics among boys By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Casey Wright wanted to boost the number of boys in her gymnastics program. “We then had three COVER STORY gyms with three classes (total) with only 10 boys,” she said. “I was talking to a mom in the bleachers and she said her son would absolutely love this kind of activity, but her husband wouldn’t go for it because it was gymnastics. Originally, it was a way to rebrand and re-market a gymnastics-like program for boys. Since then, it’s morphed into so much more.” So she developed NinjaZone. “It took off with the popularity of ‘American Ninja Warrior’ and emergence of parkour, which is like street gymnastics, jumping on walls and climbing from building to building and the principles of gymnastics and martial arts,” the Carmel resident said. “A lot of our character development comes from the martial arts piece. Ten boys (in the program) went to 365 kids in six months, and at that point I knew I had something pretty special. That was huge because gymnastics is typically 95 percent girls.” Wright, 41, owns five Indianapolis-area corporate gyms, which have NinjaZones. There is a NinjaZone Academy in Geist. Wright started testing the NinjaZone concept at her Greenwood gym at the end of 2013. She said she built FUNdamentals Gymnastics in Westfield in early 2015 and offered it there. The concept went national later in 2015. There are now 335 licensed NinjaZone locations around the world. NinjaZone started primarily for boys but is open to boys and girls, although the number of boys in the program is much higher than girls. The growth led to Wright being named the 2019 Small Business Person of the Year for Indiana by the U.S. Small Business Administration. “It’s more of a holistic approach,” she said. “We are teaching them not only athletic skills but character-development skills, just life skills. The program has a perfect fu-

sion of everything parents want for children at that age and gives them the foundation to go on and do whatever sport they wanted to as they get older. What really makes us different is we focus on the kids-centric coaches. We train all our coaches that the kid, the whole child, comes before the sport that they do, and that’s more important.” NinjaZone is primarily for ages 18 months to 13 years old. Geist resident Dan New’s son John, 6, started when he was 4 years old.
“He loves it,” New said. “My son loves to watch ‘American Ninja Warrior,’ so I think that show has brought awareness to this kind of movement. Instead of being in a leotard doing gymnastics, you are still doing a lot of the same movements, but it’s called different stuff. And there is more obstacle play kind of stuff.” New said if his son wants to play another sport, NinjaZone will help with balance and coordination. New said he likes seeing his son’s face after working to overcome obstacles. “It’s such a great life skill,” he said. There are two brands: Wright’s Gymnastics Academy, for more competitive gymnastics, and Wright’s FUNdamentals Gymnastics, which focuses more on recreation for younger kids and not competitive teams. Wright said the company is building a $5 million multi-sport facility at Grand Park in Westfield. She wants to open it in the summer of 2020. “I used to coach at the elite level, but I’ve since concentrated more on the business and more on the community level,” she said.
Casey Wright’s parents, Bob and Dana Wright, founded Wright’s Gymnastics Academy in 1975 in Johnson County. Wright’s parents were college gymnasts at Ball State University and then became teachers. “They started one of the nation’s first private gymnastics clubs. It was Casey Wright at age 3. really one of (Submitted photo) the first private athletic clubs,” Wright said. “That was in 1975, when everything was in a school system or a community center. They really blazed that trail. They quit their teaching jobs and became entrepreneurs pretty early on.” Casey Wright competed in gymnastics until she was 11 and began coaching when she was 12. “I bought the business from them in 2005,” she said. “They retired and moved to South Florida in 2000. My dad passed away in the summer of 2018.” Casey Wright attributes her entrepreneurial spirit to her parents. “My dad always said he wanted to get out as much as he put in,” she said. Casey Wright said her husband, Jeremy Ciano, an optometrist who owns RevolutionEYES and Little Eyes Pediatric Eye Care in Carmel, has helped teach her the fundamentals of operating a business. Casey Wright has lived in Carmel for five years. She and Ciano have a blended family with Alex, 13, Bella, 12, Scarlet, 9, and Leo, 7. Alex and Bella are Ciano’s children from a previous marriage while Scarlet and Leo are from Wright’s previous marriage. All four children have participated in gymnastics or NinjaZone.

Commentary by Terry Anker Do little kids still learn to ride bikes? There was a time, not so long ago in America, when every child had a bicycle and knew how to ride it. Outside the small-town pharmacy with the soda fountain, there would be a pile of them strewn on the sidewalk, as if their owners couldn’t wait to park them properly before rushing to the candy counter. But today, one is more likely to see the youngsters piling out of the family SUV with some patient adult texting away while sitting on the front seat. Is it that we have more time to deliver them to their many obligations? Is it that they are too tired from travel soccer? Is it that rising crime leads us to fear allowing them to bike or walk to the corner store? Is it that the corner store has been replaced with some behemoth retail outlet where one needs a bicycle to manage the aisles rather than one to get there? Regardless the reason, these small humans have stopped pedaling. Maybe it is a good thing. Isn’t it always better to get a ride than walk? Isn’t it always better to be a passenger than in charge? Well, maybe not so much. What is being taken away from our kids in our generous desire to “help” them? What skill is not being developed? What confidence is not being found? Without unnecessarily waxing poetic about the halcyon days of yore, we did learn that a bent nail can repair a broken bicycle chain in a pinch. And, we all knew that we had to get home before the tire went completely flat or we’d be walking. Maybe it is not a video game, but isn’t it something?

Not missing toddler time Commentary by Danielle Wilson Oh, my goodness, I can’t tell you how happy I am not to be pregnant and/or raising toddlers. Wait. Who am I kidding? Of course I can tell you! A friend of mine is in labor HUMOR as I type. First baby, doesn’t know what she’s having, she’s been simultaneously excited and terrified. I’ve watched her go from “looking pregnant” to having to elevate her swollen feet after waddling a short ways, hand to lower back. She’s had to consider pediatricians and car seats and finding the perfect name that satisfies not only her and her husband but also her parents and in-laws, and one that won’t be associated with the next Hollywood scandal. She’s learned Lamaze and built a crib and survived awkward baby showers, all without the help of caffeine or booze. And now, after 10 months, she’s literally birthing that little miracle through the sheer superpower of womanhood. I’m exhausted just writing this
paragraph. And that’s only the beginning. Soon, that precious angel will start to walk and talk and attempt to scale the pantry shelves. My youngest sister was visiting with her kiddos, 3 and newly 5, and I couldn’t help but flash back to my own era with preschoolers. Sugar-induced tantrums, the battle over bedtimes, lost woobies, poopy pants … the horror! Sure, the wine helps, but keeping those rugrats alive and on the path to eventual home ownership is a constant source of anxiety and sleepless nights. Teenagers bring their own set of worries, but at least you can ship them off to boarding school. I can’t tell you how great it is to be past this nonsense! Peace out.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK “The way to get started is to quit talking and begin doing” — Walt Disney
Editor, I’d like to share why I’m voting yes on the Carmel School safety referendum on Nov. 5. Since that devastating day of the shooting at Noblesville West Middle School on May 25, 2018, I’ve spoken to multiple safety experts. My conversations with everyone from police officers to school counselors and psychologists, as well as former Homeland Security staff and FBI, have all led me to the same conclusion: We need highly-trained school resource officers and better mental health services in our schools. This referendum will provide the funds for just that. The Carmel school safety referendum will provide a school resource officer in every school. Currently, there are seven across 15 schools. The referendum also will fund raising the salaries of current social workers to be competitive with area districts as well as hiring additional school counselors/social workers. The referendum also will provide students, staff and the community with ongoing training to improve safety and reduce violence. We can no longer live in a “that doesn’t happen here” world. Because it happened 7 miles from here. Karla Oselka Walsworth, Carmel

Articulating pandiculation Commentary by Dick Wolfsie Pandiculation is the act of yawning. I’ve always found it embarrassing. I’ll be talking to someone and suddenly find HUMOR myself yawning. That’s when the guy will say, “I’m not boring you, am I?” Here’s my response: “Not at all. People yawn when the pressure in their ears differs from the outside pressure, or from the partial collapse of the air sacs in their lungs, prompting the brain to make them yawn, thus getting more oxygen into the lungs.” “OK, Dick, now you’re boring me.” My cat always yawns when she sees me (your pets do the same thing to you, don’t they? Please tell me they do). When I used to get undressed with my dog in the room, he’d take a look, and then he’d yawn. I tried not to take it personally. My wife doesn’t yawn much, which I thought was evidence of what a snappy conversationalist I am, but at times she exhibits paralinguistic respiration — meaning she sighs audibly. Unlike most cinema reviewers who employ either the thumbs-up or five-star criteria, Mary Ellen practices the sigh standard, exhibited most often when I
drag her to a film she doesn’t want to see. Years ago, at an Arnold Schwarzenegger flick, she sighed so many times the man next to us thought she was in cardiac arrest and called 911. Unlike a sigh, a yawn is involuntary. I was at a wedding and I desperately tried to suppress a yawn to not appear rude or uninterested. My face got all twisted and scrunched, but I managed to successfully incorporate the words “I do” into my pandiculation. Even the minister was impressed. Scientists studied research volunteers who had been deprived of sleep and were asked to read a boring news article with an ice pack on top of their head. Very few yawned. I don’t know who paid for this study, but I wish they’d instead spent that money to find a cure for my gout. I hope you think this column was worth reading. Personally, I don’t think it’s anything to sternutate at. You can look that one up. But here’s a hint: Gesundheit! Dick Wolfsie is an author, columnist and speaker. Contact him at wolfsie@aol.com.

Carmel entrepreneur’s headphones help discreetly treat anxiety By Chris Bavender news@currentincarmel.com A few years ago, a close family member of Bart Waclawik was diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder. He was prescribed antidepressants but didn’t INNOVATION respond well to them and started having significant side effects. “I began researching non-drug approaches to treatment of this disorder and came across cranial electrotherapy stimulation that has been approved by the FDA for treatment of anxiety, depression and insomnia for many years,” said Waclawik, owner of Innovative Neurological Devices. Waclawik “I found there were a number of clinical trials conducted over the years showing that the technology works, especially for treatment of anxiety and accompanying insomnia.” Waclawik bought a CES device and his family member started improving within a couple of weeks. “However, he was complaining that the device I bought for him, which used ear-clip electrodes, was uncomfortable to use, and he was reluctant to use the device in school, where his anxiety was at the highest,” Waclawik. That led the Carmel entrepreneur to integrate the technology into headphones that resemble those used for music or to cancel noise. “Everyone, especially adolescents and young adults, use

headphones during work, study and play. To me, integrating a medical device into an accessory that is a part of people’s daily life seemed like a logical and a natural choice,” Waclawik said. “Also, people who suffer from anxiety often want to isolate themselves from their environment during an attack, so making the headphones noise-cancelling also seemed appropriate. Lastly, based on patient feedback, I wanted to make a device that is ‘stealthy,’ so patients can
use it without others knowing they are getting treatment.” Waclawik markets the headphones under the name Cervella. “Cervello means ‘brain’ in Italian, and cervella is a plural form. Since we deliver electrical current to the brain, we felt it was an appropriate name,” he said. “It is also reasonably easy to pronounce and remember for English speakers.” Cervella can be controlled by a smartphone app and is easy to use outside the house. “The patient can put the headset on, put the device in his or her pocket and control the device completely from the app as there are no buttons or even an on/off switch on the device. It is all controlled through Bluetooth,” Waclawik said. “For the clinician, the important feature is that the app automatically records all of the treatment parameters and patient treatment history, which should allow the doctor to better monitor a patient’s progress and adjust the treatment plan.” The device won a Mira Award for Innovation of the Year, creating a lot of exposure for the company. “More importantly, it brought to light that there are non-drug, FDA-cleared and clinically validated options for patients suffering from anxiety and depression, which are disorders that affect at least 18 percent of the adult population,” Waclawik said. “Everyone knows someone who suffers from anxiety and depression, so treatment of this disorder is something that is personal and relatable to almost everyone.” For more, visit cervella.us.

Merchants Bank officials join representatives from the City of Carmel and other organizations to cut the ribbon celebrating the opening of its new headquarters in Midtown. (Submitted photo)
Merchants Bank HQ now open By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Merchants Bancorp Chairman and CEO Michael Petrie describes partner Randy Rogers as a man of very few MIDTOWN words. Upon seeing the new headquarters for Merchants Bank of Indiana in Carmel’s Midtown, Rogers, Merchants vice chairman, told Petrie it was truly overwhelming. “My partner hit the nail on the head again,” Petrie said. “It was the perfect word. Overwhelming describes the work efforts of our employees over the last 29 years. Merchants has been named one of the best places to work in Indiana for four years in a row. Now, we are not only one of the best places to work in Indiana, we have the best place to work in Indiana with this overwhelming building.” Merchants Bancorp, along with subsidiaries Merchants Bank of Indiana and Merchants Capital, unveiled its new headquarters with a ribbon-cutting ceremony Sept. 20 in Carmel. The 120,000-square-foot building, at the intersection of Elm Street and Monon Boulevard, houses approximately 200 employees. The headquarters, which took approximately two years to build, was designed by Dillon Construction Group and Studio M Architects. Petrie said construction was completed on time and on budget. “It’s a long journey, but we’ve finally made it and we’re very excited about it in downtown Carmel,” Petrie said. “We have
five floors with plenty of room for expansion. We have a branch on the first floor. We think it gives us added exposure in the community.” The building has 8,000 square feet of available retail space and 24,000 square feet of leasable office space. Petrie, a Carmel resident, said Merchants officials had been thinking about a headquarters for four or five years. Petrie and Rogers started the company 29 years ago, first called PR Mortgage and Investments and then rebranded using the Merchants name. Petrie and Rogers have worked together for 39 years. They previously worked for the old Merchants Bank. They left the company before Merchants was acquired by National City Bank in 1991. Petrie and Rogers brought back the green frog mascot, Hopper, who appeared in advertising campaigns for the old Merchants Bank “This is a great example of why our public-private partnerships work,” Carmel Mayor Jim Brainard said. “The city has invested in new roads and a new urban plaza and park. As a result, we have $600 million of private sector investments within the last couple of years.” Brainard said Midtown was designed to be pedestrian- and bicycle-friendly. “We used to be a car suburb,” Brainard said. “We are designing it so people can walk most places they need to go if they choose to live and work in this area. We know it’s healthy for people and it’s a lot more fun than being in a car for two hours a day, which is the U.S. average.”

Snyder returns after long hiatus to perform as Donna in Civic Theatre’s ‘Mamma Mia!’ By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com When Kara Snyder heard Civic Theatre was presenting “Mamma Mia!,” she knew it was time to return to the MUSICAL stage. “It’s been 15 years since I’ve been on stage doing anything in theater,” Snyder said. “I really love this show. There are not that many opportunities for shows that I feel I will be a good fit for.” The Westfield resident, who took a break from acting to raise her four children, will perform as Donna in the musical, which runs Oct. 4 to 19 at The Tarkington at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel. The musical centers on Donna’s daughter, Sophie, who wants to learn the identity of her father on the eve of her wedding. Her pursuit of the identity brings three men back to the Greek Islands, where they hadn’t been for 20 years. Snyder said she was in a couple of Civic Theatre shows 15 to 20 years ago. Snyder said she was even more excited to work on “Mamma Mia!” when she found out Anne Beck was the director and choreographer. Snyder had worked on previous shows when Beck was the music director. “I directed and choreographed the show last year for Zionsville (Community) High School and was able to learn there was much more to it than the excellent music of ABBA,” said Beck, a Fishers resident. “It has grown to be a favorite after diving into its script more and more because there are so many themes people of all ages can relate to.” Beck said the challenge with “Mamma Mia!” is giving equal emphasis to the huge amount of musical numbers and meaty script for Donna’s story and Sophie’s journey. “With ‘Mamma Mia!’ being an iconic film, more patrons have seen it over the Broadway show,” Beck said. “It is important to make this show our version, let this cast shine, create our own Greek chorus that enhances the story and its characters,

Fall is the perfect time of year to plan a home remodel. (Submitted photo)
No time like the present Commentary by Randy Sorrell and Bill Bernard Have you noticed the morning air is becoming a little more crisp? Have you noticed all the Halloween BEYOND THE decorations on display in BAC K D OOR the stores for the past month? Have you noticed that football season is in full swing? That can only mean one thing: It’s fall in central Indiana! Fall also happens to be the perfect time of year to plan the remodel of your home. As the weather gets colder and the holiday season approaches, we spend more time indoors entertaining guests, preparing special meals, hosting celebrations and hoping Adam Vinatieri will get the ball between the uprights. If you hesitate at the
thought of inviting friends and family to visit, or if the thought of spending time at home makes you sigh, perhaps it’s time to consider some remodeling. Planning to update or remodel your home is an exciting process any time of year, but winter in Indiana can be unpredictable, at best. Before the bitter winter weather invades, let us help you define your path to a more lovely home. Are you ready to start planning your remodel? We’ll help you create a space you love, so you can focus on the people you love. Stay home, be moved. Randy Sorrell is president of SURROUNDINGS by NatureWorks+, a Carmel homeimprovement firm.

Austria: Life of the beautiful Sisi Commentary by Don Knebel Most visitors to Austria and Hungary soon learn about Elisabeth, the beautiful and troubled Empress of Austria and Queen of Hungary widely known as Sisi. TRAVEL Elisabeth Amalie Eugenie was born in Munich in 1837 to a Bavarian duke and his wife. She had received little formal education when, unknown at age 15, the 5-foot-8 Sisi caught the eye of Franz Joseph I, the 23-year-old Emperor of Austria and King of Hungary. Engaged five days after their meeting, they married eight months later in Vienna. The royal court began distributing paintings and busts of the carefree and energetic young queen, claiming that she was the most beautiful woman in Europe. Sisi took this claim seriously, with Statue of Queen Elisabeth (Sisi) in Budapest, Hungary (Photo by Don Knebel) courtesans spending up to two hours a day arranging her ankle-length dark hair.

So, here’s the truth about so Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt When your significant other starts a conversation with, “So, we need to talk,” you know it’s over. GRAMMAR GUY You immediately flip through the pages of your relationship, scanning for any glaring issues or things for which you should be sorry. You’re on the defensive. You might even think about who gets to keep which friend after the impending break-up. Some — perhaps many — people believe fervently it’s not kosher to begin a sentence with “so.” I’m here to advocate for the use of “so” as an acceptable sentence starter. If this is a deal-breaker for the relationship between you and me, then I agree that it’s time for us to start seeing other people. “So” is a coordinating conjunction. This type of conjunction’s prime purpose is to join other sentence elements that go together. In case you’re wondering, it’s easy to remember English’s seven coordinating conjunctions — just remember “fanboys.” Fanboys stands for “for, and, nor, but, or, yet and so.” So, if this type of conjunction joins related parts of a sentence, how is it
acceptable to start a sentence with one? I thought you’d never ask. According to the Chicago Manual of Style, “There is a widespread belief — one with no historical or grammatical foundation — that it is an error to begin a sentence with a conjunction such as and, but or so. In fact, a substantial percentage (often as many as 10 percent) of the sentences in first-rate writing begin with conjunctions. It has been so for centuries, and even the most conservative grammarians have followed this practice.” While we could probably connect sentences that begin with “so” to prior sentences with semicolons to show the connection between the two thoughts, we don’t need to do this in everyday speech. If you’re addressing the U.N., maybe try to avoid starting a sentence with “so.” Otherwise, you have my permission to “so” away. Curtis Honeycutt is a national award-winning, syndicated humor writer.

DISPATCH Fresher bread — If you refrigerate bread to keep it longer, you’re actually shortening its life. When bread is stored in a refrigerator, the cold causes the starches to recrystallize and harden so it gets stale more quickly than at warmer temperatures. Freezing, however, dramatically slows the process down. Bread should be stored at room temperature for only a few days, or frozen for longer storage. Source: SeriousEats.com
