Geist Lake Marina proves if a boat is available, people will come By Meggie Welch • news@geistcurrent.com

Geist Lake Marina has been offering pontoon rentals for more than 15 years, diversion and has grown in popularity so much, the marina began to offer kayaks for rent. Kent Duckwall, the director of marina operations at Geist Lake Marina and Morse Lake Marina, says a great deal of their renters are families, but sometimes corporations will rent them out for a company event or a bachelor/bachelorette party will rent out a pontoon boat for the night. At first the customers were only from around the area, as only people from the neighborhoods of Geist were allowed to rent, but in recent times the renting has become available to anyone and has reached from northern Indiana, southern Indiana and all the way to western Ohio. When there are big events in the area, such as the Indianapolis 500, Duckwall will notice an increase in demand, along with around the holiday seasons. While the marina is opened from mid-April to mid-November, the most popular time to rent is on the weekends in the summer months from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Duckwall is interested in putting enclosures on the pontoons to lengthen the time people could enjoy the lake. A neat service the Geist Lake Marina offers is the rental of two smaller pontoon boats for beginner boaters to learn the rules of the water. The marina also gives every renter an orientation be-

Free to Breathe run/walk – The Indianapolis Free to Breathe Run/Walk will be held on June 27 at Fort Harrison State Park. Check-in begins at 9 a.m., followed by Tot Trot at 10:25 a.m. A 5k run/walk and a one-mile walk will begin soon after. All proceeds support Free to Breathe, a nonprofit lung cancer research and advocacy organization. To register, visit www.freetobreathe.org. HCLA applications – The Hamilton County Leadership Academy announced that it is currently accepting applications for the 2015-2016 class, which will run from August through June of next year. Applications are due June 30. For more information, contact Jill Doyle at jdoyle@hcla.net.

fore leaving for their trip. “A lot of people will either return to rent often and continue to do so,” Duckwall said, “or will decide to buy a boat for the long-term.” The opportunity to rent for a day or evening is appealing to former boat-owners that do not get out on the water enough to own their own vessel, but still want to be out on the water. Geist Lake Marina is located at 11695 Fall Creek Rd. in Indianapolis and it offers rentals of pontoons and kayaks every day, either for the whole day, the evening or hourly (two hour minimum). To find out more about renting availability and rates, go to www.marinalimited.com or call 849-8455.

The world owes you nothing Commentary by Mike Colaw • news@geistcurrent.com Entitlement has swept across our nation like a tsunami, and in its wake is endless debris of unmet expectations. People religion are deeply hurt because of the chasm between who they wanted to be and who they really are. A few years ago I met a young man, a teacher. He had a decent job and a wonderful group of close friends. According to most, he already had a good life, maybe even a great one, healthy, reliable job and great friends. He was living the young adult dream! Not the typical person to darken my door asking for counseling. I listened closely as he tried to explain the reason for his inner turmoil. He basically was depressed because he wasn’t who he thought he should be. So I asked, “Who should you be?” He had a really difficult time landing the plane, fishing for an answer and coming up with nothing. After a few moments of half finished sentences I was able to piece together where he was going. He was frustrated because the world wasn’t responding to his dreams, desires and expectations like he wanted. He truly believed he was entitled to happiness. Not just a

culturally agreed upon version of happiness, but his ideal version of happiness. It’s crazy how a young man living a good life can be so miserable. He is the epitome of the “every kid gets a trophy” generation. After a few conversations I became certain his bedroom had a wall full of trophies screaming, “You’re much greater than you really are.” As an adult he believed it. He should be the boss. Everyone should pick his idea. The principal needs to listen to everything he has to say. Why? Because everyone and everything has told him he is the best. His real emotional chasm was a result of the slowly emerging awareness that he isn’t perfect. He, like many, had married his personal value into a false sense of greatness. Do you know what all these unmerited accolades ended up giving him? Discontent and depression. To read the full version, visit geistcurrent. com.

Green BEAN Delivery, a grocery delivery service, started in Indianapolis in 2007. “All the groceries are organic and locally sourced products,” Shopp said. Shopp said the delivery service is perfect for anyone who tries to eat healthy or stay local, yet Green BEAN also earns big points for the convenience. With $35, Shopp, who is a working single mother of two, can get herself and her kids fed with healthy food. “I like the variety of the products,” Shopp said. “They give you things you wouldn’t normally get.” Green BEAN Delivery changes the types of food in its pre-packaged bins quite frequently, and even provides some recipes on its website for those who may not know how to use some of the lesser-known foods. The food bin coolers are insulated and keep the produce cold and fresh for six to eight hours after it is dropped off on the member’s doorstep. A variety of different bin sizes can be selected by members, and customized each week to whatever they fancy. Rhonda Parr, Geist, said she enjoys using

Social entrepreneur blends childhood dream with community volunteering By James Feichtner • james@youarecurrent.com The path of an entrepreneur is filled with risks and uncertainty. Some are fortunate to reach their goal of earning a profit through their endeavors, cover story however for one category of entrepreneurs the goal isn’t financial gain, but to give back to the community. Donna Wing falls into this category, the category of a social entrepreneur, and today she continues to give back to her community while following her childhood dream of being an actress. Since she was a child, Wing had wanted to be an actress, but like with many childhood dreams, life got in the way. “As I grew up, [acting] was just something that wasn’t encouraged in my life. So I studied nursing,” Wing said. “I rubbed the field and got my bachelor’s degree and got my master’s degree.” Wing used her nursing education to become a teacher in Tulsa, Okla. But her aspirations of being an actress still reached out to her. While she volunteered with her son’s performing arts program, she realized that she needed to make a change. “I was helping back stage and getting involved and really enjoying it,” she said. “In ’99 when my son had graduated, I decided I really needed to do something else.” With her husband working in Indianapolis at the time, Wing decided to move the rest of the family here, where she began rekindling her dream. “I started pursuing theater, trying out for auditions, getting into plays and just enjoying it and just realizing that this is really what I want to do, but I didn’t really want to do it as a job, per se. So I started volunteering,” Wing said. After spending time playing roles in various volunteer based venues around central Indiana, Wing decided she wanted to do more with her passion of the performing arts. “In 2002 I started realizing there are some things I would like to do a little bit differently.” she said. She set her sights on two historical buildings with what she saw as wasted potential. One was the Fort Harrison Presidential Site downtown where she went on to start the Candlelight Theatre. The other was Oaklandon Unitarian Universalist Church located in the Geist area.

“[Oaklandon] was actually rebuilt with a stage and in the 1950’s it had become boarded up and not used. I saw that stage just sitting there and the building was in need of certain upgrades.” In 2002, Wing opened Oaklandon Civic Theatre, a community devoted theater that uses its show’s profits to give back to the public. Since then, four of Oaklandon’s plays have been accepted into the Spirit & Place Festival, with Wing winning an international award for her portrayal of a Vietnam nurse in “A Piece of My Heart.” Her success with Oaklandon and Candlelight has even brought her to Harvard Business School where she presented her theater projects to around 80 students. While Wing is still in charge of the plays she presents, she manages to follow her childhood ambition of playing a physical role in the plays. “The social entrepreneur part is like the businesses that I’ve started and that I basically run and coordinate. But it’s not just funding things or having the idea; I’m performing. Of the four plays I do a year, I perform in three of them, I work backstage in one, I get the directors, I get the actors, I get the costumes.”

ABOUT DONNA WING Family members: David (husband), Ryan and Chris (adult sons) Education: BS in Nursing, University of Tulsa; MS in Nursing, University of Oklahoma; Doctorate in Education, University of Tulsa in collaboration with the University of London; Post-doctoral Fellowship; Harvard University. Favorite vacation spots: Waitsfield, Vermont and Grand Cayman Favorite pay: “A Piece of My Heart” Favorite hobbies: Hiking, scuba diving and skiing. What I like about Geist: The beauty and wildlife.

Helps at Lawrence food bank monthly. Helps husband with a Coral Reef advocacy program in Fla.

(Photos by Amy Pauszek) "Where’s Amy?” … Well, I was stuck in The Rabbit Hole with the cast of "Alice in Wonderland" at the Booth Tarkington Civic Theatre! The fun started as I watched the cast and crew belt out favorite songs of my childhood past. Then, I was lucky enough to mingle with some of the cast members afterwards. They were in a hurry to get to their own private Kiddo Tea Party but had fun posing and chatting with “Where’s Amy?”. Later, the adults had their own tea time at an adult “Twisted Tea Party.” The Twisted Tea Party was all about having a fantastic time, but it also helping to support the Civic Educational Programs. Guests could buy a special ‘tag' to help Jr. Civic or take home a bottle of wine from the whacky wine pull. Everyone had a magical evening, delicious food by Jonathan Byrd and colorful psychedelic cocktails to sip on throughout the night. Hats off to the wonderful cast, crew and to Civic Theatre’s own Brent E. Marty who directed and choreographed the show. Yep, the event was a true FUNdraiser! Enjoy!

Success at a high school reunion

FR O M   T HE B A C K SH O P OK, who needs some face wash? They just continue to rub all our faces in “it,” and we keep coming back for more. Last week, the Internal Revenue Service stated it may have found 6,400 e-mails from Lois Lerner, who oversaw the tax agency’s Exempt Organizations Unit, but the IRS folks aren’t sharing what “may” have been discovered. Trust us, the excuse is el-perfecto, too! The legal beagles from the U.S. Department of Justice, in representation of the IRS, say the e-mails won’t be shared because the service is making sure that none of them is a duplicate. Yes, of course, we buy that lock, stock and barrel. Some people need to stop taking stupid pills, and everyone should demand that his or her congressional representatives get the ball rolling toward shuttering the Jurassic agency or vote them out. Fair tax, flat tax … whatever. Just. Make. It. Stop. And if they can’t get it done, vote for people who will achieve on that front. This poor nation … . ••• Festival season is upon us, and we’re thrilled to be sponsoring events across our region once again. That got jump started with last Saturday’s Wild Air Farms Summer Festival in Zionsville. It was a benefit for the Make A Wish Foundation, and it was wildly successful by every measure. There was wonderful family entertainment, and the fireworks display was among the most amazing shows of pyrotechnics we’ve seen anywhere. Folks worked their fannies off to make that event come off without a hitch. With July 4 festivities right around the corner, we urge you to consider joining volunteers working hard already to give the community a memory. Plus, volunteering just feels good!

Rain, rain go away

Commentary by Terry Anker

It has been a particularly wet June. Thunderstorms have populated the weather map with no immediate end in sight. As a child, rainy days were always a disappointment. With less than a handful of reliable television channels and all other electronics non-existent, there was little distraction to keep us indoors. Even more, small houses would have put us underfoot (and subject to direct supervision) all day long. The summer ritual was to head outside immediately after breakfast to explore and entertain. Rainy, sloppy days would only complicate matters. The resulting mud would make the call to lunch a much more challenging undertaking as we were not allowed back indoors without a considerable scrub. As an adult, one becomes far more sanguine about the weather. Experience teaches that the only thing worse that having rain is having no rain. We can count ourselves blessed in a time when so many regions

are experiencing record droughts. Once complaining about a delay on an airplane on the tarmac for a needed repair, a fellow passenger reminded me that the only thing worse than being on an airplane in need of repair on the ground was being on one with a mechanical failure while in the air. The challenges we face in life, great and small, often support a much larger ecosystem. While a rainy day may be the bane of existence to a child hoping to play baseball, it also brings needed moisture to plants and wildlife, helps restore the water table and fills the rivers, reservoirs and streams. Wear a raincoat. Carry an umbrella. Sleep in. Develop a mechanism to endure the inconvenience. It will pass and we’ll likely be better off for it.

Q U O T E  O F  T HE  W EE K Be courteous to all, but intimate with few, and let those few be well tried before you give them your confidence. – George Washington

Over the weekend I attended my 25th high school reunion. I know what you’re thinking: “How can she be that old when she looks so good?” Fair question, my friend, humor but the truth is I was a child of the eighties and it’s been a quarter of a century since I walked the halls of my dear Sacred Heart Academy, an allgirls catholic school complete with nuns and weskits. Fortunately, I am a twin, and my sister and I decided to go together, along with our three besties from freshmen year, for both moral and forgotten-name support. I honestly wasn’t thinking too much about appearances until Sis told me of her recent Botox injections and spray tan expenditure; she was clearly stepping up her game. But with an aversion to needles and no time to counter the pasty-white ginger skin, I showed up in all my natural glory. Turns out, most of us looked great. A few women I did not recognize; they were either much heavier or much thinner that I remembered, and there was one gray-haired gal I mistook for a 1970’s alum. But all in all, our class has held up incredibly well. Of course I credit Facebook for keeping the shocking transformations to a minimum; stalking old classmates does have its advantages! Actually the only surprise was that every single lady I spoke with was as nice as could be, even if I hadn’t particularly liked her back in the day. We talked about kids and husbands and divorces and cancer and parents and careers, and of course, our favorite memories of SHA. I learned our class had been widely regarded as the worst in decades. [Due to our behavior, the school board revoked senior lunch privileges and retired the student smoking “pad”. Furthermore, there are no championship athletic banners for the years 1988-1992, which might explain why I, at a very average 5’6”, started at center for the varsity basketball team. Desperate times called for a clearly desperate measure!] Hopefully our fiftieth will be just a lovely. I, for one, can’t wait. Peace out. Danielle Wilson is a contributing columnist.

McAfee ready to be uncaged By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com

It might be Pat McAfee’s first official stand-up comedy show. But it’s an act the Indianapolis Colts punter has been preparing for all along. “Some people play video games, some people binge watch diversions TV,” McAfee said. “Ever since I can remember, I write. I enjoy writing. My life has brought me into some very interesting situations and some hilarious situations. I’m so lucky and blessed to be in the NFL. I’ve been preparing for this for about 10 years. I’m ready to go. I could do the show tonight if I had to.” Pat McAfee: Uncaged is set for 8 p.m. on July 11 and 12 at the Palladium in Carmel. The first show in the 1,600-seat concert hall was sold out in less than two hours. The second show sold out quickly as well. “We thought we were going to sell 20 tickets,” McAfee said. “When the Palladium asked how many I thought I’d sell, I had no idea. There were zero projections. The morning it sold out it was an overwhelming feeling.” McAfee said he enjoys comedians who tell stories. “You get to really get to know them through their stories,” McAfee said. “It will be stories about my life and my mistakes. It will all be poking fun. It will be a fun night of happiness. It’s going to raise money for my foundation so it’s going be a win-win-win.” Portions of the proceeds go to The Pat McAfee Foundation, a nonprofit dedicated to educational scholarships for the children of U.S. military personnel. Comedian Jeff Vibbert, known for his behind-the-scenes work for the Bob & Tom Show, will open McAfee’s show. McAfee is a frequent guest on Bob Kevoian and Tom Griswold’s nationally syndicated radio show. “Instead of playing video games or having a family, I chose to make people laugh,” said McAfee, who had shows on WTHR-13 and IndyStar.com. “It’s an 18-plus show. But it’s not going to be grotesque. I’m going to deliver stories in a gentlemanly manner. It’s going to be about situations I can’t talk about on my TV show or on my Twitter account so that’s why it’s been called Uncaged.” McAfee said he might want to pursue a comedy career when his NFL career is over. “The good thing about comedy is you don’t have a boss,” he said. “Right now, I’m doing it for fun and see where I head to. But I really enjoy making people happy. All I want is for people to smile and be happy. The world is a crazy place. Tom Griswold told me once, ‘People have enough (crap) going on. They don’t need your (crap). Just make them happy.’ You never know when your career is going to end. So preparing for the future is always a good thing.” Colts tight end Jack Doyle has full trust that McAfee can be funny for 75 minutes. “I’m excited to go there and see what he’s got,” Doyle said. “He’s a really funny and a great guy at the same time. He’s one of the jokesters around the locker room and the lunch room. When you sit by him at lunch, you know you’re going to laugh throughout the lunch.”

Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com St.Vincent Fishers just added a new amenity that will attract parents from across the city. A new Saturday pediatric walk-in clinic opened at the hospital in early June. It treats newborns to age 18, which is a health large age range for walk-in clinics. Board certified pediatricians are staffed at the clinic. The clinic is open Saturdays only from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. No appointments are required. The doctors there treat illnesses such as ear infections, coughs, colds and vomiting. Some doctors will also conduct sports physicals as well as some sports injuries, which tend to be more popular during the weekend. “The biggest difference from other walkin clinics is that you will be seen by board certified pediatrician,” said Dr. Brian Aguilar, a pediatrician at the new clinic. “It is more important that someone who specializes in children sees your kids because we are more focused on problems that kids have. Kids are not just little adults, they have a different anatomy and physiology that pediatricians are more skilled at treating.”

‘Cache’ or ‘cachet?’ Commentary by Jordan Fischer Question: “Dear Grammar Guy, can you explain the difference between ‘cache’ and ‘cachet?’ Are they just grammar guy alternate spellings of the same word?” Answer: Hey, I know this one! Grammar column: Engage. If you’ve ever been geocaching – a sort of scavenger hunt involving clues and GPS coordinates – you know what I’m about to say: a “cache” is a storage place or a collection of items stored in a hidden or inaccessible place. Squirrels have caches. Pirates have caches. Squirrel pirates would have caches, but they have better things to do. A “cachet,” on the other hand, has less to do with hiding things and much more to do with making them distinguishable. A “cachet” is a distinguishing mark or seal, or, more abstractly, the state of being distinguished, respected or admired (ex. “Few world leaders

had the cachet of Nelson Mandela.”). A “cachet” can also be a flat capsule inside which a dose of medicine is stored. Now, you may be saying, “Fine, Grammar Guy, I get the definition. But how do you pronounce these words?” If you would just have a little patience, I was getting to that. “Cache” is pronounced like the sort of thing you might hide inside – “cash.” And, while they’re both French words, “cachet” is the one that sounds most like its French roots: “cashay.” It’s kind of fun to say, really. So there we go: We learned two new words, and how to say them, and maybe even a bit about a new hobby. I’m talking about squirrel pirating, of course. We can leave the geocaching to someone else. Jordan Fischer is a contributing columnist for Current Publishing. To ask Jordan a grammar question, write him at rjfische@ gmail.com.

Vasa: Stockholm’s famous ship on display Commentary by Don Knebel The most popular museum in Scandinavia features an ill-fated Swedish warship launched almost 400 years travel ago. The museum also holds lessons about hubris and obsequiousness. By the early seventeenth century, Sweden was the third largest country in Europe, after Russia and Spain. In 1625, its king, Gustavus II Adolphus, ordered a fearsome new type of ship to intimidate rivals around the Baltic. The king, considered the father of modern warfare, specified two gun decks, each with 24 large cannons, and an exterior adorned with hundreds of brightly painted carvings. For three years, shipbuilders, sailmakers and artists worked on the 1210-ton “Vasa,” named for the royal family. In January 1628, the king inspected the nearly complete ship in the Stockholm dockyard and pronounced the untested configuration seaworthy. He then went to Poland with his troops, repeatedly sending back letters demanding to know when his ship would be finished. With Vasa still in port, 30 sailors ran around its top deck to test the ship’s stability. Senior naval officers could not tell the impatient king

his sanctioned design had failed the test. Instead, on August 10, 1628, they launched Vasa on its maiden voyage, with families joining sailors onboard. Gun doors were opened so cannons could salute the admiring shore crowds. Less than a mile from port, a strong gust caught the sails, the ship listed and seawater flowed into the open gun ports. The mighty Vasa sank, taking 50 people to the bottom of the harbor. An official inquiry refused

to assign blame for the debacle. By 1683, divers had salvaged Vasa’s brass cannons and the ship was forgotten. Don Knebel is a local resident who works for Barnes & Thornburg LLP. For the full column visit donknebel.com. You may contact him at news@currentzionsville. com.

New bathroom layout creates better space in homes Commentary by Larry Greene EXISTING BATHROOM: The owners of this home, located in the Cheswick subdivision in west Carmel, had lived with their existing master bathroom for blueprint for 10 years. “Our original bathroom had an odd improvement layout. The toilet room divided the bathroom in half and cut up the space. The small walkin shower was tucked away in a dark corner and always felt cold. We wanted a more open and functional layout to take advantage of the natural light.” NEW LAYOUT: To improve the functionality of their space, the existing bath was completely gutted, enabling a blank canvas for the new layout. Plumbing was relocated for the new location of the shower, tub and toilet room. The shower was moved to the previous location of the garden tub to give the homeowners’ more space with natural light. The toilet room was moved to the previous shower area. A new freestanding tub was placed in the center of the room to create the main focal point of the bathroom upon entry. TOWER CABINETS CREATE SPACE: While the location of the existing vanity worked well, it

before & after

lacked usable storage space. To add storage capacity, ceiling height tower cabinets were added to each side of the new vanity. CREATING ELEGANCE: “With the house dominated by my husband and sons, I wanted to have an elegant and feminine design that would stand the test of time.” To achieve this timeless look, marble tile was selected for the

RESULT: “The new bathroom is perfect for us. We love how many options we have with the shower. The wide door, bench and grab bars allow us to age-in-place in this home gracefully and I especially appreciate the convenience of the handheld shower wand to wash the dogs.”

bathroom floor and shower. Chrome fixtures, wainscoting and a traditional free-standing tub contribute to their dream vision. Minera quartz by Cambria with flecks of sparkle, crystal chandeliers, sconce lighting and crystal cabinet knobs add a touch of feminine flair.
