Fadness hosts 12th annual Boy Scout fundraising breakfast

Dispatches
By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com
City and Scouting officials, business owners, Boy Scouts and Cub Scouts, among others, attended Mayor Scott Fadness’s fundraiser 12th annual Breakfast for Scouting March 1. Scouting Executive Patrick Sterrett introduced Cub Scout Drake Kane and Eagle Scout Dan Young to present to the crowd about what Scouting means to them. “Fishers has a really strong, vibrant Scouting community,” Sterrett said. “We are absolutely thriving, and 2016 was the best year in maybe a decade for this (Scouting) council. We continue to try and change. One of those big changes is having STEM Scouts. STEM Scouts (share) the same values of Scouting, character, citizenship and fitness and the education side of Scouting. Instead of focusing on merit badges, it focuses on science, technology, engineering and math. It is co-ed. “We are really proud of the things we are doing in this community and across our entire council.” Kane was the first Scout to present. He is in second grade and a Wolf with Pack 130. “There are nine other guys in my Wolf Den,” Kane said. “My dad was an Eagle Scout. At (Camp) Belzer, I like archery, BB guns, rafting and crafting. I hope to be an Eagle Scout.” Dan Young is a senior at Hamilton Southeastern High School and a member of Troop 199. “When I first joined Scouting, I was extremely small and extremely quiet. I didn’t talk to a whole lot of people,” he said. “That just shows what the program does for people like me. Scouting has taught me leadership skills. You get a lot of training with that. I’ve worked with so many different kinds of kids. You get to really learn how to lead and lead a troop. It gives you the most unique experiences you’ll ever have in your life.”
Hamilton County GOP elects new officers - On March 4, the Hamilton County Republican Party precinct committeemen met at the Ritz to elect officers for the next four years.

Fadness also spoke. “One constant we can all agree upon is the impact of one adult role model in a child’s life can be very positive,” Fadness said. “I think it’s a right thing and appropriate thing to rally around an organization like the Boy Scouts. What are the tools and skillsets you are going to need to be successful in this ever-changing world?” The total raised at the breakfast was $23,265.

Canine comfort Geist couple, church help others with comfort dog Naomi
By Sadie Hunter • sadie@youarecurrent.com An Illinois-based group, Lutheran Church Charities, is making a difference in the Geist area in a unique way – with a comfort dog. Holy Cross Lutheran Church, off of Oaklandon Road, has been getting out in the community cover story with its comfort dog, Naomi. Kathy Megazzi, administrator of the Comfort Dog program at the church, is Naomi’s caretaker with the help of her husband, Larry. Megazzi also is a teacher at the church’s school, teaching math, science and general education to fourth and fifth graders. Naomi attends school with her each day. “We have had her since July (2016). We got her when she was 15 months old,” Kathy said. “Lutheran Church Charities, where we purchased her from, has been going on since 1947, and Comfort Dogs started in 2008 after the Northern Illinois University shooting. “The program was founded because the president of LCC realized that dogs break down inhibitions of people,” she said. “They can be very comforting. There’s nothing like petting the dog. They sense our needs, and that’s something that, even when Naomi was a puppy, she has been able to do.” Naomi is different from a service dog, which are trained to provide assistance to a single individual. Naomi is trained to serve multiple people, including the public. Busy nearly every day, Naomi visits hospitals, assisted living facilities, schools, libraries, police and fire departments and more. All of LCC’s comfort dogs are purebred golden retrievers, a breed Megazzi has had experience with. “When I was young and in 4-H, I trained guide dog puppies for the blind. So I’ve kind of always had a desire to help people with dogs,” said Megazzi, who added she believes God led her to Naomi and the Comfort Dog program. “As a teacher here at the school, I was cleaning my

classroom floor and found a business card. Another comfort dog had come to visit the kids in the after-care program and had passed out her business card (something each comfort dog carries with them). So one of my students had it in her desk, and it must have dropped on the floor.” From there, she said she took the card, noticing the golden retriever, and began researching the program and sharing the information with the pastor of the church, who told her to “go for it.” Many churches can’t boast that they have a dog on staff, but because she was purchased by the church from
LCC’s KARE 9 MILITARY MINISTRY In addition to providing comfort services to the general public, Naomi is specially trained to serve veterans, active military and their families in a variety of ways, including: • Yellow-ribbon reintegration events • Military stand-downs • Vising VA hospitals and medical centers • Taking part in holidays (Veterans Day, Memorial Day events, etc.) • Visiting veterans in their homes • Attending VFW, American Legion and AmVet events For more, visit kare9.org.
LCC and provides a service to the church’s members and the local community, Megazzi said she is considered a staff member. “In fact, in the whole state of Indiana, there are only four (three in Portage) dogs, including Naomi,” Megazzi said. “We’re in 23 states, and there are over 130 dogs. Because it just started in 2008, there aren’t a lot of them. It takes 15 months to train the dogs.” Training includes 2,000-plus hours of service, where they learn basic obedience, 34 specific commands, housebreaking, socialization and more. “The ministry is about connecting with people. We use Naomi as a bridge to kind of draw people to us, and then we can talk,” Megazzi said. “In addition to that, she’s taken to places like Lowe’s to socialize. She goes to church every Sunday, and anywhere where there would be people who are sad, lonely, in pain or needing comfort.”

Sleeping through a slumber party

The doors of our lives
Commentary by Danielle Wilson
Commentary by Terry Anker Famed American inventor Alexander Graham Bell once said, “When one door closes, another opens; but we often look so long and so regretfully upon the closed door that we do not see the one which has opened for us.” Too often his words reflect in our own lives. We set course planning to move from one space to another without considering a contingency plan. Like people exiting a crowded theater only using the door that is propped back rather than opening any of an array of other adjacent exit doors. We imagine our route, then line up as if our brains cannot conceive of another. Yet whether we can find a new course on the map or not, life continues to move. We pass along its corridors barely noticing until we find a portal locked, obstructing our smooth passage. We strive diligently to bypass it and, in failing, collapse in our own grief believing that our lives will go no further, trapped by our own conception. Yet even if our work creates a path to open, get around or simply break through the barrier to allow us to continue along our way, we might expend such vast resources so as to turn the victory into a loss. How do we know it is time to look for another portal? With time comes wisdom, and our own measure of grit is determined. We learn when to pound the door and when to find another. But isn’t it all made easier if we remember Bell’s admonishment that it is a rare journey with only one path to its final destination? Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC.

Give the old gung-ho Commentary by Richard K. Egan To be sure, the world we live in isn’t what it used to be. Well, really, nothing is anymore. What was the world back then, and was it any more fun than now? Do we still say that those were the good old days? We had tar-paved streets over cobblestone and the car you drove had to be black. Mother hung clothes on a line in the backyard, and dear ol’ dad shoveled the coal into a shoot. Oh, yes, we cast our vote for the candidate we wished and forgot them until the next ballot, as the elected did the same to us. Boy, have things changed. First radio then television, and now internet. The quickest we used to get breaking news was an extra edition of the newspaper sold on street corners. Now, it’s all instantly being slung at us by so many sources it is hard to keep up with it all. Breaking news, no news, fake news, slanted news, right or left news.
In today’s world, it’s hard to differentiate fact from fiction. Everyone seems to have the right answers, which makes for strange bedfellows. Right or wrong, we still have to live with each other whether we want to or not. This is still our country, our land of the free, our heritage and ours to have and to hold. Somehow, somewhere, someone must stand tall to unite us as one people under God, as our forefathers intended. That someone is you. It starts with you and then another until we again have the United States of America. Don’t give up or in, give the old gung-ho to ‘make America great again.’ Richard K. Egan is a retired interior decorator, born a Buckeye, Hoosier at heart. He has been married to his sweetheart Evelyn for 62 years. They have five children, 10 grandchildren and five great grandchildren. He is active in the Indianapolis Aero Club as past president and sergeant of arms.
Recently, I had between 11 and 15 teenage girls asleep in the basement. I lost track of the headcount as soon as they humor swarmed the mini-chocolate fountain with sharp wooden skewers and marshmallows. It was survival at that point, people, so I quickly fled to the relative peace and quiet of the upstairs, shoved a beach towel into the crack at the base of the door (to block both the high-pitched squeals of delight and the overpowering scent of floral deodorant/perfume) and offered up a few Lenten Hail Mary’s to ensure I was alive to see the sun rise on the morrow. Success! I awoke the following morning actually feeling rested. Of course, I had slept fitfully until about 2 a.m. when I couldn’t take the stair-running or the kitchen-banging any longer. But I was smart this year. Instead of channeling “Mommie, Dearest” in full facial mask mode and confronting the masses directly, I simply texted my darling daughter to have everyone prep for shut down. She quickly replied “Gucci,” and I congratulated myself on using technology to communicate with my newly minted 13-year-old. Did I mention these are all competitive dancers? And that within 30 minutes of their arrival this hormonal plague of locusts had already drank and discarded four large bottles of orange Fanta, plowed their way through three bags of Doritos and were clamoring for cheese pizza while attempting to shish-kebob-me on their way to chocolatey goodness? It was only 5:30 p.m.! I can tell you my basement floor looked like a makeshift disaster shelter, with little cocooned bodies lying everywhere. And FYI, I counted 14 before the smell did me in.

Wishing you well, Richard Commentary by Dick Wolfsie In the top left corner of a supermarket tabloid one week in 1983 was a photo of exercise guru Richard Simhumor mons running in Central Park. Next to him was me, at the time the new host of a morning talk show in New York. The caption read: “Jog with a Lover.” This was pre-Seinfeld’s “Not that there’s anything wrong with that,” but there was something inaccurate about it. Yes, we were friends, which is why reports of his absence from the public have been so troubling to me. We met in the ’70s in Columbus, Ohio. On my evening talk show, he counseled audience members. My wife was skeptical of his sincerity, but after the segment, she witnessed him, off camera, consoling an overweight teen. Both Richard and the young lady were in tears. Two years later in the Big Apple, I taped an interview with Richard. As we strode along Fifth Avenue, a woman told Richard that her terminally ill mother had been inspired by him. With that, he hailed a cab and sped off to the hospital to pay his fan a visit, leaving me alone with an entire
production crew. In 1991, I began my 27-year stretch at WISH-TV, which included my favorite three minutes of unscripted live TV. Richard was appearing at a local mall, his plane set to land early in the morning. My segment was live, so I had no way to ensure his on-time arrival. In a stroke of great luck, his limo pulled up while I sat on my front step interviewing a professional clown and a very overweight chef, both of whom had wanted to meet Richard. When Simmons exited his limo, we all broke into an exercise routine at 5:30 a.m. In the studio, anchor David Barras completely lost his composure. Weeks later, Richard wrote me: “And there we were in front of your house at sunrise. A clown, a chef and a baby beagle. Nobody would believe this.” Wherever he is, I hope Richard is safe and happy.

Bags to Riches fundraiser set By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Tracy Miller figures everyone loves to get a good deal on a handbag or purse, especially when it’s for a philanthropy good cause. The fifth annual Bags to Riches, a donation and resale fundraiser, is set for 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. April 21 in room K130 at IU Health North Hospital, 11700 N. Meridian St., Carmel. “We basically sell gently used handbags, tote bags, golf bags, wristlets and purses,” said Miller, director of philanthropy of IU Health North. “And 100 percent goes to our patients in need.” Miller said the goal is to raise $5,000. Bags start at $1. Some higher-end bags are on the silent auction table with bid pages. “We had a Chanel purse go for $500 in the auction in the past,” Miller said. The collection period is March 25 to April 15. The bags can be dropped off at IU North. In addition, two senior-living communities, Carmel Health & Living, 118 Medical Dr., and Copper Trace, 1250 W. 146th St., Westfield, serve as drop-off points. “The more bags we get in, the more

money we make for our patients,” Miller said. Miller said the first four Bags to Riches have generated approximately $15,000 for patients in need. The funds are used for patients’ transportation to and from the hospital. “Sometimes people arrive after an accident and they can’t go home in the clothes they arrived in because they could be soiled, torn or ripped, so we get them something to wear,” Miller said. “We provide food vouchers. So it’s patient support that is desperately needed in a time of crisis.” The hospital’s social work department runs the sale. Donations are tax deductible. For more, visit iuhealth.org.

New artisan market launches March 18 By Sara Baldwin • news@geistcurrent.com Keri Bishop and Bridget Corbett have been organizing fundart raisers for the past four years to help raise money for the Noblesville Youth Baseball team that both of their sons are on. This year, they were ready to try something new. “We thought we could do something fun for the community,” Bishop said. Both women are artisans with their own businesses. They have participated in local markets and craft shows in the past. Bishop owns Keri Bishop Designs, featuring handmade children’s items like bibs, burp cloths, dolls and more. Corbett’s business is called The Painted Pallet. She makes custom pallet signs with hand-lettered designs. “We were already in this world and thought that hosting an event would be such a great way to showcase other awesome local artisans,” Bishop said. “We chose to do handmade only, focusing on people who create and design.” Thus, Indy MADE Market was born.

The event will feature 55 makers selling jewelry, clothing, accessories, home decor and more. It will be held inside the Llama Barn at the Hamilton County Fairgrounds March 18. “I’ve had my business for over eight years. I’ve been in and out of craft shows. The Llama Barn was my
favorite venue that I’d ever been in,” Bishop said. “It has a rustic feel, but it’s also heated or cooled, depending on the weather.” Proceeds from the nonprofit event will go directly to the baseball team. The other 10 team members and their families will provide supportive help during the event with parking, admissions and snacks. “The team is only taking exactly what they need. If we have an overage, that will go back to the community,” Bishop said. There is a $5 entrance fee. Tickets can be purchased in advance online through the VIP program. VIPs will get to bypass the entrance line and receive a wristband and special discounts from the vendors. Kids 15 and under are free. “We’re proud of this event and we’re excited for everyone to come and see,” Bishop said. For more information, a complete vendor list and to purchase VIP tickets, visit indymademarket.weebly.com.

Harpeth Rising returns to Indy By Sara Baldwin • news@geistcurrent.com Folk trio Harpeth Rising will perform at the Indy Folk Series at 7 concerts p.m., March 18. The Indy Folk Series is a nonprofit venue for curated folk music with highquality acoustics. The series features a variety of acoustic music, ranging from bluegrass and jazz to Celtic music and more, all in a coffeehouse setting. The Harpeth Rising members call themselves “chamberfolk,” giving a nod to their classical training. According to Harpeth Rising cellist Maria Di Meglio, the band has a diverse musical background and draws on a variety of styles. Di Meglio and Jordana Greenberg, the band’s violinist and lead singer, met while studying at the renowned Indiana University Jacobs School of Music. They began playing together in 2011. Banjoist and clawhammer player Michelle Younger joined the band about a year ago. “We have a lot of roots and connections to Indiana,” Di Meglio said. “We tour all over the country and all over the world.

Blueprint for Improvement: Converting bedrooms into master suites Commentary by Larry Greene
After solutions:
After
The goal was to design a master suite that utilized the existing home’s square footage, while creating a more functional floor plan. 1. To create functional space for the master suite, two small bedrooms were converted into a large master bedroom with a vaulted ceiling and walk-in closet. 2. To create a larger master bath, two full baths were transformed into one full bath and a larger master bath. This was accomplished by creating a two-foot bump-out for the small amount of additional square footage needed. 3. A double vanity and large walk-in shower were accomplished with this new layout. 4. For additional daylight, three skylights were added in the roof system: two in the bedroom and one in the closet. In addition, the existing windows were replaced with larger windows to maximize the daylight and view to the exterior.
Before Background Info: This 1950’s home in the Devonshire neighborhood of Indianapolis was in need of a functional, spacious master suite.
Before problems: The owners were looking for design strategies to develop a more efficient master suite layout without a full addition. This required some strategic space planning within their existing house footprint. Because of the wooded lot, the interior spaces needed additional daylight as well.
