Did we reconstruct his ACL . . . or his dream?
Jared will tell you, both. That’s because the ACL reconstruction that Shelbourne Knee Center did on Jared’s knee not only got him back on same level as before the injury. Which has made his dream of playing college football a reality. As Jared says, “All over their walls are pictures of athletes with thank-you letters. I knew I was in good hands.” A large, multi-center study found that only 50% of patients return to their sport at the same level. Yet similar research at Shelbourne Knee Center has found that greater than 90% of Shelbourne patients return to sports at the same level. Which proves we’re not only specializing in knees, we’re specializing in your recovery. Just ask Jared. He came in with a torn ACL, and walked out with his dream intact.

Froehlich was interested in transferring universities, so she began to search on her own. She narrowed down the choices to Ohio State University and the University of Texas. After visiting both, Froehlich said she and her sister prayed about the decision. “When we had finished praying, we looked at each other and both said ‘Texas’ at the same time,” Froehlich said. “We just knew that that was where God had put on both of our hearts where to go.” She transferred to Texas in January 2015, and the rowing team placed seventh in the nation that year. She said she might pursue a career in rowing, exercise science or psychology.

Emily Froehlich had no idea rowing would be the sport Achievement to lead her to a world competition. “I’ve never been on this kind of stage with rowing, or with anything, in my life, so I’m excited to experience representing the United States, but also challenging myself and how I hold myself as an athlete,” Froehlich said. Froehlich, 22, earned a seat in the eightperson boat representing the U.S. at the 2017 World Rowing Under 23 Championships July 19 - 23 in Bulgaria. The team was chosen from athletes participating in the Under 23 National Team Selection Camp this summer in New Jersey, which requires an application from athletes to earn a spot. Froehlich graduated from Hamilton Southeastern High School in 2013 and began rowing as an intramural sport at Purdue University.

Start the right way Commentary by Michael VandenBerg "Start children off on the way they should go, and even when they are old they will not turn from it." (Proverbs 22:6) faith Teen violence, high school shootings, gang and radicalization of our youth. The headlines jolt our consciousness. The question is always, 'Why?' Someone who knows them gains the lights of the camera and proclaims they just don't understand how this good kid could go so wrong. What's the new workable solution? Maybe the solution is not new at all, but is 3,000 years old and found in the wise sayings of King Solomon. Solomon wrote to give wise instruction. If followed, it could lead to a life of health that was spiritual, emotional and, at times, physical. Solomon's headline solution was to be attentive in how we train our children. More than just formal education, Solomon is saying parents need to be very deliberate about whom and what teaches their children. It is not just book knowledge that our children learn: It is how mom and dad interact that teaches them how they should act as a spouse. It is how parents argue
that teaches them how they should resolve differences. It is how much time they spend with their child that teaches how valued they are. It is how they are supervised that teaches the value of discipline (an ordered life with purpose), which is the necessity of a successful navigation of life in a society governed by laws, not simply by our wants and desires. Everything we do, the people we associate with, the things we value, our outlook toward society, are all observed and passed down to our children. If you want your child to be productive, independent, compassionate and loving, surround them abundantly with people who are all of those things, and when they get older, they, too, will value them and live that kind of life. We learn more by what we observe than what we read, so make sure your children catch you being the kind of person you want them to be. Rev. Michael VandenBerg is the pastor of Hope Community Church, a congregation of the Christian Reformed Church, and a community consultant for City in the Church Consulting.

Going through the emotional aspects of a divorce is difficult in and of itself, but the added pressure of managing finances only adds additional challenges. Going from a two-income household to a one-income household can be scary and you may be tempted to start moving assets around, or paying off debts, but you may want to think twice before doing so. Indiana law presumes an equal division of property, which means both parties are on the hook for all assets and debts that are considered marital. Disposing of said assets and liabilities could put you at risk. What counts as marital property? Does it include money I brought into the marriage? What about the house I purchased prior to marriage? I earned significant retirement assets prior to the marriage—is that included, too? While many states consider separate property, Indiana takes a “one pot” approach. All property owned by either spouse, whether acquired prior to or during the marriage, is considered marital property. This includes real property, personal property, bank accounts, retirement accounts, and anything else under the sun you can think of. The same rules apply for liabilities, too. Wait a minute. What about that big inheritance I received from a family member? A court can consider the extent to which property was acquired prior to a marriage or if property was given as a gift or through inheritance, but keep in mind this is only one of the relevant factors a court must take into consideration if you’re trying to exclude certain property as marital. What happens to the marital assets once a petition for dissolution has been filed? Consider the date you file for divorce a frozen snapshot of all your assets and liabilities. Everything you own and any debt you have will be valued as of that date and will be included in your marital estate. This means anything you acquire after your date of filing, whether an asset or
debt, is yours and yours alone. If your spouse wants to go buy a Lamborghini after the date of filing, that debt will solely be on them. If you buy a lottery ticket the week after filing for divorce and hit the jackpot, that money belongs to you! What you can’t do, however, is dissipate assets that are considered marital. Can I sell my property? It’s not necessarily a straightforward answer. If both parties in a divorce agree to sell an asset, a home for example, that’s perfectly okay. Any equity received or liability incurred can be attributed to each party at the end of a divorce settlement. If both parties agree that each party will keep their respective cars and then you want to go sell your car and use the proceeds to buy a new one, that’s okay too—so long as there’s an agreement to do so. Every situation is different, so it’s important to get advice before getting rid of any major assets. In many situations, parties are unable to agree on their own. If, for instance, one party has concerns the other party will cut off funds or dissipate assets, either party can request a temporary restraining order be placed on marital property. Specifically, this would keep either party from transferring, encumbering, concealing, or in any way disposing of any property. This essentially freezes your assets. Many courts issue these types of orders automatically when a divorce is filed, but if you have specific concerns, it’s best to address it directly. Don’t worry, you’re still allowed to use assets (think cash assets) for the normal and regular necessities of life, though. Just don’t go purchasing any big-ticket items. If you’re unsure of your rights, the attorneys at Hollingsworth & Zivitz, P.C., have the experience, the understanding, and the compassion to assist with your family law needs. If you have questions or concerns regarding divorce, custody, mediation, collaborative law or any other family law concerns, please contact our firm at 317.DIVORCE or visit our website at www.hzlegal.com.

'the burnt part boys' Play director Andrew Okerson rehearses the production’s musical numbers at Ten West. (Photos by Sadie Hunter)
Ten West Center for the Arts to premiere new musical Aug. 11
By Sadie Hunter • sadie@youarecurrent.com Since 2012, Ten West Center for the Arts has been bringing true community theater to Fortville, and beginning Aug. cover story 11, its next production, “The Burnt Part Boys,” will premiere. “It’s set in 1960s Appalachia West Virginia, a mining town, Pickaway, West Virginia,” director Andrew Okerson said. “Ten years before the play starts, a bunch of the Okerson fathers in the town are killed in a mining explosion. It leaves a big portion of the mountainside charred black, so the locals call it ‘the burnt part.’ Flash-forward 10 years, and we’ve got a group of kids listening to the radio, and they find out that the mining company is going to reopen that mine.” The group is divided on how it feels about the mine’s reopening. Some of the older kids who work for the company have been chosen to work there, while the younger ones, who didn’t get a chance to know their fathers as well, scheme to destroy the mine permanently to honor their fathers, whose bodies were never recovered. “Along the way, the ghosts of the fathers appear to give advice and help,” Okerson said. “Sometimes, they appear as Davy Crockett. It’s a really interesting show.”
Stephani McDole, right, sings “God’s Eyes” during a rehearsal for “The Burnt Part Boys.”
The one-act play, which lasts approximately 90 minutes, will have a short run at the 140seat theater from Aug. 11 to 13 and features 18 musical numbers. The theater is inside a historic building that dates to 1927, “It (play) has a really cool Appalachian score to it,” Okerson said. “It’s all very bluegrass feeling.” The cast of nine earned roles after auditions in May. Since then, the group has been rehearsing twice each week. “It’s a little different from some of the bigger musicals. It’s very music-heavy and less
on the production value,” Okerson said. “It’s done in the style of found (non-traditional) theater, where our set consists of a large piece of scaffolding and ramps and platforms. All of that moves around to make mountains, rivers and hillsides. There’s lots of climbing and moving around, but all of it’s done through imagination.” Written by the American musical songwriting team Miller & Tysen, “The Burnt Part Boys” ran off-Broadway in 2010 and has only been performed one other time in Indiana.
SEE THE SHOW What: “The Burnt Part Boys”: Locally named The Burnt Part, the Pickaway Coal Company’s South Mountain closed down after an accident in 1952 that resulted in the death of four miners, three of whom left behind children. Ten years later, Jake Twitchell is an employee of that same company, doing the same job that took his father’s life. To the dismay of his movie-buff younger brother, Pete, the Pickaway Coal Company is going to begin remining The Burnt Part and send down both Jake and Jake’s friend, Chet, whose father also died in the South Mountain accident. Inspired by his silver screen heroes, Pete sets out for The Burnt Part with his saw-playing best friend, Dusty, a pack full of dynamite and plans to render the mine useless. With Jake and Chet in hot pursuit, Pete and Dusty are in need of a guide and find a perfect Sacajawea in the young runaway, Frances, who also lost her father in the accident. Dangerous and heartwarming discoveries comprise every theatrical layer of the adventure on the road to the mine. When: 7:30 p.m. Aug. 11 and 12, 2:30 p.m. Aug. 13. Where: 10 W.

Mt. Vernon district CFO honored news@geistcurrent.com Brian Tomamichel, chief financial officer of Mt. Vernon Community School Corp., was recently honored by the Association of School Business Ofrecognition ficials International with its 2017 Pinnacle of Achievement Award for an innovative program that leverages use of credit card rebates to fund a 1:1 program in the district. The district said purchasing nearly 4,000 devices as part of a 1:1 initiative and updating MVCSC’s infrastructure on a short timeline required a $2.5 million investment. Tomamichel spearheaded a strategy that entailed taking out a four-year, $2.5 million loan from a local bank and offsetting most of the interest through a credit card 1 percent cash-back rebate program. The district worked with the bank, credit card company and vendors to set up a process whereby the district could make large purchases with its credit card, thus taking advantage of the rebate program. Between 2015 and 2016, the district received nearly $71,000 in cash back from the program, which helps the district further expand the technology program. “We are now truly seeing our curriculum integrated digitally throughout our district,” Tomamichel said. “And any student who sets foot onto our campus will be utilizing technology at some point during the day, regardless of their age.”
Hamilton Southeastern Schools are back in session Aug. 9, and Fishers Police Dept. spokesman officer schools Shawn Wynn wants to remind students, parents and drivers of traffic and bus stop safety tips. FPD also will be stationed at schools around the district during drop-off and pick-up hours to aid bus traffic and parents. They will continue this throughout the year. Here are Wynn’s tips: • One traffic safety tip many drivers are confused on is when to stop when a school bus stops. If a

road is not divided by a median, all lanes must stop when a school bus stops. Wynn said bus drivers are provided with forms to copy down license plate numbers if drivers violate this law. Forms are then turned into the FPD, and a sergeant follows up with the driver to educate them. • Students should always walk far enough in front of the school bus to be able to make eye contact with the driver. • Students should stand six feet from the curb. This prevents a student tripping or falling off the curb and in the front of the bus.

New elementary school to replace portable classrooms By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com Construction will begin for a new elementary school in the Hamilton Southeastern School construction District this fall. It is expected to be completed by July 1, 2019. A name for the school has not been deteremined. The HSE School Board will name the school. The school will replace 35 portable classrooms in Delks the HSE district and allow more space for students through Fishers’
growth. Harry Delks, HSE School District director of facilities, said the new school will accommodate approximately 700 students for kindergarten through fourth grade. It will be across from Cyntheanne Park, near Cyntheanne Road and 126th Street. The cost of the new school is capped at $22 million from a previous referendum. Delks also touched on a few other construction projects under way in the district. “We are currently renovating Cumberland Road Elementary School and expanding the Central Office,” he stated in an email to Current. “The total cost of this combined project is a little over $19 million. The completion date of this project is fall of 2018.”
Schools to practice mindfulness By Jessica Hoover • news@currentinfishers.com Teachers from Riverside Intermediate School and Fall Creek Intermediate School have been trained by the education Mindful Schools program and plan to implement mindfulness in their classrooms this fall. According to Brooke Lawson, mental health coordinator at Hamilton Southeastern Schools, mindfulness is about creating a pause in your day, slowing your thoughts down and paying attention to the world around you. Lawson Mindfulness can be practices such as mindful breathing, mindful thinking, mindful communication and more. The teachers will walk their classes through a variety of scripted exercises and lead a discussion afterward. Freedom Kolb, executive director of the Hamilton Southeastern Schools Foundation, said practicing mindfulness in the classroom differs day to day. “It could be as simple as taking a moment at the beginning of the day to be mindful, to think about your day, to kind of use positive self-speaking,” Kolb said. “But then there also could be times in your day when a student could be experiencing some anxiety, so you stop and take a break
and practice being in the present, thinking positively.” The idea for implementing mindfulness in Hamilton County classrooms came from a community member who provided a donation to Hamilton Southeastern Schools Foundation. She and her family felt there was a need to become more proactive in the mental health of younger children, and that led to the idea to participate in the Mindful Schools program. Although mindfulness is still a new topic in education, Lawson said it has been proven to benefit Kolb students. “It helps people make better choices (and) helps the students communicate better with one another,” Lawson said. “It helps increase self-discipline and self-regulation. It improves confidence, it helps with interpersonal skills, it improves emotional response and it increases the ability to understand others.” Teaching mindfulness to students at a young age could even have lasting effects, according to Kolb. “I think it will help long-term with time management, with coping with anxiety, with decision-making,” Kolb said. “It’s giving them another tool that they’ll be able to use for the rest of their lives.”

o b s e r v a tion Never-ending firsts Commentary by Terry Anker
Commentary by Danielle Wilson
Firsts. Premiers. The maiden voyage. We all have them. Yet, as we age, it may seem as if they become fewer. But do they ever go away? Along life’s journey, we are routinely presented with opportunities to try our hand at new things, skills and experiences. Among the many joys of seeing life through the eyes of young children is the sense of anticipation and apprehension that embodies firsts. We recall that an inaugural school dance is filled with trepidation even as we are compelled to attend – driven by our desire to socialize. At a certain stage in life, what is left for us that is new? We have traveled, raised children, paid a mortgage, built a career, driven a car, eaten exotic food and, most likely, been to a school dance. Too often, we slip into our routines imagining that little remains undiscovered. Yet, are we being entirely honest with ourselves? Do we intentionally avoid the novel and unknown firsts, just like a trepidacious child loath to leave the safe confines of mother’s skirt? Are we deliberately holding ourselves back, excusing our reluctance by claiming that there is nothing new under the sun? Only recently, our youngest procured his initial license to drive an automobile. He was a bit reticent. In time, the course work and training were completed. The tests and administrations were fulfilled. All that remained was the first drive – alone. Even as the car pulled from our lane, his anxiety transformed into elation. He had overcome another first and was already on to the next.
A funny thing happened on my way to a funeral. As I prepared to pull out of humor my driveway to make the fourhour round trip to Kentucky, I realized I had forgotten to pack a water. I put the car in park, kicked off my heels and raced through the garage toward the door. My left foot suddenly connected with a two-by-four concealed under a tarp. I stumbled into the house before the pain hit, then dropped to my knees on the kitchen floor. My vison blurred and I thought I might vomit. As I whimpered over my surely broken toe, practicing excuses for why I would no longer attend a good friend’s father’s service, my older daughter walked in, assessed the situation and said, “Now you know how I feel every time I drop a rifle on my foot.” She’s in color guard and frequently sustains injuries to her extremities, but still, where’s the compassion? “Get up, Mom. You’ll be fine.” She prepared an ice bag, fed me two Aleve and then hustled me back out to the car. “Mom, you have to go. It’s important.” Despite the pain, I realized she was right. I had to go. The student had become the master. Proud parenting moment! I made it to Louisville, shoved my blissfully numb foot into a 3-inch heel and hobbled my way through a one-hour calling. True, when I stopped by my parents’ afterward and removed my now bloodfilled shoe, my toe was a disturbing shade of purple and was no longer numb. But I was so thankful that my daughter had the wherewithal to understand that I needed to be there for my friend. Life can be funny like that, right? Peace out.

REA D ER ’ S V I E W Understanding our president Editor, Our president, Donald Trump, reminds me of the men of the 1950s. These men, who just returned from World War II, were tough, not afraid of hard work and commanded respect, discipline and no nonsense. They were not afraid to speak their minds, the opposite of being politically correct. These men became fathers and raised functional families. They moved back into the communities and became the future principals, teachers, public servants, doctors, construction workers, farmers, community leaders and more. They were everywhere in the lives of children who looked up to them for discipline and leadership. Our president is tall and has broad shoulders, shoulders that are carrying a very heavy load of trying to sew back our divided country, set the record straight to other countries that we won’t take any nonsense from them and the load of
bringing back the middle class, which is the pillar class holding up our nation. During the 2016 presidential campaign, from the primaries to the final two contenders, President Trump shared information that was not commonly known to the average American, such as other countries not paying their fair share of promised debts and the recent Paris Climate Change Agreement. Just these two examples show billions of dollars being sucked away from our middle class. Even though our president is a billionaire, he does understand the needs of hardworking Americans and their families. He is trying to bring back our country to what it was during the 1950s, when our nation hummed with jobs and growing families. The United States was respected world-wide at that time, and we need to get back there again. Mari Briggs, Sheridan

I am a loser. I lose everything. Most people lose golf balls on a course; I lose clubs. One time I lost the golf humor cart. People lose their wallets; I lose my pants. Don’t ask. It’s a long story. I recently reported on the Wolfsies’ trip to Banff, Canada, where I spent most of the time waiting in the car due to my bad knee. I managed to snap some great photos of my son, Brett, and my wife, Mary Ellen, as they headed out for a hike each morning, and I got some more scenic pics in the evening at dinner. I’m a good photographer, but at the airport before our flight home, I lost my focus. I put my camera in the large gray tray to go through security. Then I forgot to retrieve it from the conveyor. When I went back five minutes later, it was gone. My Konica had been stolen, along with the pictures showing all the fun we had, although most of the photos were of Mary Ellen and Brett walking away from the car and heading off without me. I had my name and email address taped on the back, but I assumed the camera was
gone forever. Then last week, I opened my email and there was this note: Dear Mr. Wolfsie: Thanks for leaving your camera unattended at the Toronto Airport. I’ve always wanted a vintage one like that. But when I started looking through those pictures, my heart just went out to you. You have such a lovely family, so I am emailing you all your digital photos. Your wife is very attractive, but tell her a lime-green sweater does not work with red hair. What’s with your white socks with blue jeans? Tell your son not to slouch when he walks. Also, why so few shots of you? Ever hear of a selfie? You should have more fun. The Wolfsies look very stiff. Anyway, Dick, if I may call you that (I feel like I know you), I am keeping the camera, even though I would have preferred a Nikon. P.S. Do you know if they make a carrying case for this model?

Summer Stock presents ‘Pippin’ July 27-30 By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com John Collins loves the challenge of his latest role. Collins will perform in the title role of Summer Stock Stage’s production of “Pippin” July 27 to 30 at Park Tudor School. Pippin is a young prince in search of fulfillment. Collins, a 2017 Herron High School gradutheater ate from the Geist area, said the music is high tenor material. “It’s big, intense music, and along with it you have to show this arc of journey starting from a kid who just wants to be the best version of himself he can be and finding his place in the world. He keeps failing time and time again,” said Collins, who plans to major in musical theater at Krauter the University of Cincinnati. “He feels he has nowhere else to turn. To be able to show that arc is a good challenge to have.” This is Collins’ fifth year with Summer Stock. Last year he played Shrek in “Shrek the Musical.” In addition, he played Anthony Hope in Actors Theatre of Indiana’s “Swee-

ney Todd” earlier in the year. Collins will perform with fellow 2017 Herron graduate Courtney Krauter, a Carmel resident. “He’s my best guy friend since I was a freshman, so it’s been super-fun working with him all these past years at Summer Stock,” said Krauter, who will attend Indiana University to major in international studies this fall. Krauter plays Berthe, Pippin’s grandmother. “She was cast out of the kingdom due to personality conflicts with her daughter-in-law,” Krauter said. “She’s a kind person but has a hilarious humor to her. She gets a little crude at times. She is real fun to be playing because I kind of relate (to a similar sense of humor).” Krauter said the director doesn’t want to dress her up as an older lady. “I’m going to wear a wig, but he’s going to make it more abstract,” Krauter said. “I act it out instead.” Too much makeup might be an issue, too, since Krauter said she performs in other scenes as a chorus member. Performances are set for 7 p.m. July 27, 28, 29 and 2 p.m. July 30. For more, visit summerstockstage.com.
Film explores Danish happiness By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com When Rocky Walls and Zach Downs first made a trip to Denmark in May 2016, they were unfamiliar with the term ‘hygge’ (pronounced hoo-ga), which documentary means coziness. Hygee has recently gained popularity in the U.S. Wall and Downs decided to explore the concept more in the version of a feature film, producing it through the Fishers company they co-own, 12 Stars Media. “Hygge is to the Danes like freedom is to the Americans,” said Walls, the film’s director and producer. “It’s like coziness, or Downs the feeling that you have when you’re in an environment where you feel very safe and comfortable. In 2016, a lot of people (Americans) reached a point where they were fed up with how easy it was to be unhappy. People started looking for things to brighten their lives a bit, and this concept of hygge came up. We started to look into it and thought it was something it Walls might be worth sharing with the world. Danes are consistently ranked among the happiest (people) in the world, so if they know something we don’t know

about being happy, we could find that out maybe and share with the world.” The pair returned to Denmark and the United Kingdom, this time with a staff of 17 from the 12 Stars Media team. They spent five days in Denmark and three days in the U.K. to gather enough information to be made into an approximately 90-minute feature film. Normally, 12 Stars Media creates videos for a company’s or organization’s website, typically three minutes in length. “The biggest thing is that we actually followed around
and interviewed and really dug into the lives of actual Danish families and professionals so we could get a glimpse into their real lives,” Walls said. The plan is to have the film ready by next spring. The duo has already compiled a list of film festivals, both national and worldwide, they plan to submit the film to. The film’s distribution method has not been determined. In addition to collecting footage for the film, the team also learned some important lessons about the hygge concept. “The biggest surprise I think for me is hygge is a lot of times subjective, even from Dane to Dane,” said Downs, also a producer of the film. “The commonality being that it’s the idea of relaxing, enjoying the moment. It’s just kind of like being in that moment, putting things away, enjoying the company around you, and again that all kind of turns into something different from individual to individual. None of it’s like extreme ideals or anything. It’s just enjoying what’s around you. “There are also more things that you have to think a little deeper about, like being present,” Walls added. “Mindfulness came up a lot.” Downs said 12 Stars Media is focusing on completing the project before it considers creating other feature films.
