City changes course, approves new plan for airport land By Sam Elliott • sam@youarecurrent.com The Fishers City Council approved a new plan for the development of 211 acres of land at the Indianapolis development Metropolitan Airport at its July meeting. City staff developed a new plan, resulting in a new memorandum of understanding with the Indianapolis Airport Authority, which approved the plan at its July meeting days before the Fishers City Council. “The mayor has encountered a number of corporate citizens that were looking for more campus feels. These are folks that employ north of 500 that weren’t just looking for a building; they wanted to develop a campus,” Fishers Director of Economic Development Brandon Dickinson said. “Given our track record to attract new companies, we’ve gone back to the Airport Authority and discussed with them whether the original MOU that said once we have this master plan approved we take it to an RFP process, maybe there’s a better way to do that that involves the City of Fishers being the master developer so to speak. We can create nodes and niches as we attract these companies to land their 30-acre campus development and placing them where we see fit on the

The Airport Authority also approved the city’s plan to donate approximately 12 acres of land to the adjacent Richey Woods Nature Preserve either through easements or purchase.

Dispatch Immediate raises for EMS staff denied again — For the second time in three meetings, the Lawrence Common Council voted 6-3 against an immediate $2 raise for the city’s paramedics and EMS workers at its July 20 meeting. Two proposals for raises were on the meeting agenda for first reading, but one proposed by Councilor Tom Shevlot was removed following a 6-3 vote to suspend the rules and then a vote to remove the item. “There are no words for that. It's unprecedented,” Shevlot said. “I can't think back to a time where something on the agenda never got heard.” Another proposal introduced by Councilor Wm. Tyrrell Giles was sent to the finance committee after first reading, with his proposal calling for a $4 raise that would go into effect Jan. 1, 2017. “You can't do a proposal in 2016 to take effect in the new year,” Shevlot said. “You just can't do that, but their legal advice is letting them down.” Messages to Lawrence Mayor Steve Collier, Controller Jason Fenwick, City Attorney Maura Hoff, Common Council President Joe Williams and Councilor Giles were unreturned as of press time.

The Bible says, ‘Be unafraid’ Commentary by Rev. Michael VandenBerg Another week, another set of shootings, violence in our cities, protests in the streets and a rising level of hopelessreligion ness. What can be done to stem the cycle of violence and retaliation? More police, more oversight, more money for cities, more laws, more WHAT? President Ronald Reagan said, “Evil is powerless if the good are unafraid.” That’s a pretty tall order in a world that seems to be spinning out of control. How do the good stand unafraid in the face of evil? Repeatedly, the Bible tells believers to “be unafraid.” In some of the most terrifying moments in Biblical history, God breaks in and tells us that we need not be afraid for he is in control. God reminds us that we can be unafraid, act unafraid and exercise power over the evil that surrounds us. We must look again into the face of God and realize that the enemy of this world is powerless against the power of God and that those who follow God into battle have nothing to fear. The evil around us may take our power, our voice and even our lives, but he cannot destroy us. The voice of God will never be si-

lent, the followers of God cannot be defeated because the final enemy, death, has already been defeated. The battle is not against those who differ from us, or even those with evil agendas, but rather against the spiritual realm that seeks to pull us away from God, cause us to give up our faith and to turn away from the eternal only to gain the temporary. The enemy is not the people or things around us that cause us pain, division or distraction, but the prince of darkness, who can kill the spirit, rob us of our eternal inheritance and turn us away from the Prince of Peace, the God of hope and the spirit of truth. Edmund Burke once said before the British Parliament, “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good me to do nothing.” Will we be the voice of peace, unafraid in the face of evil or will we sit on the sidelines and watch as our nation descends into chaos and destruction? Jesus once said, “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called the children of God.” We stand unafraid when we know the outcome and are sure of our convictions. 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. He and his wife Nancy have been Indiana residents for more than 17 years and Indianapolis residents since 2008. He can be contacted at office@indyhopecrc.org.

A pair of Fishers High School state championship teams were honored in front of the Fishers City accomplishment Council at its June meeting. The FHS We the People team was back in front of the council to be recognized for its sixth-place finish at the national competition following its Indiana state title. “Even more important than their accomplishments this year has been that their hard work has sparked so much excitement in the Fishers community,” said Liz Paternoster, FHS teacher and We the People coach. “For example, we had (city councilor) Cecilia Coble volunteer to judge a competition for us and from that a We the People class for adults was born, there were over 50 participants and there are plans for another one in the fall.” Also recognized for its recent accomplishments was the Fishers High School rugby program, which capped the 2016 school year with a pair of dominant state championships. The Tigers’ varsity rugby team won its recent state championship matchup by a score of 73-6 while the junior varsity squad prevailed 63-0 in its state title game.

Area residents open country’s first dedicated pod spa

By Sam Elliott • sam@youarecurrent.com Friends Daryl Randall of Geist, Rick Goren of Fishers and Ron Albright of Indianapolis wanted to be cover story the first to get the United States in on a long-time health and wellness craze from around the rest of the world, so they did some studying abroad. That led to the trio from Fishers, Geist and Indianapolis to open Emerge Body Transformations, a spa dedicated to using Cocoon Wellness Pro “pods,” at 435 Virginia Ave., Suite 1600, Indianapolis. “We saw this example in Europe where this lady had bought 2,200 pods in 15 years, she opened up 180 weight loss centers strictly with the pods,” Albright said. “She has a concept where she guarantees your weight loss or your money back. In 15 years, she's given people money back twice. Sweat is good for you. The people who live the longest in the world are Norwegians and Asians, where, from birth, they get in saunas, and it's just part of their daily life. They're constantly detoxing their body.” The pods come in two styles and can reach as high as 190 degrees inside. Keeping the user’s head outside of the pod tricks the brain into not overheating and wanting to get out. “Most people, when they workout, they'll go do a half-hour workout. Well, the first 15 minutes is just getting tired and getting your body up to the point where a sauna will do you good,” Albright said. “Most people in America, when they sauna, it gets too hot, they get out and never go back in. In Europe, they get in for 10 minutes, they jump out for a minute and repeat that. They keep their core temperature up. Everybody else in the world knows how to use a sauna and knows the benefits of a sauna and sweating.” The pods can be dry heated or heated by wet steam and combine a collection of therapeutic practices. “It’s an infrared sauna, it’s got a vibrating massage table, it's got aromatherapy, jade therapy, oxygen therapy and Himalayan salt therapy,” Albright said. “It’s really a model for people who really want to get jumpstarted on a wellness program. It's first about weight loss. If you got in that thing three times a week, and we wrapped you in a sauna suit and cranked the heat up to 190 degrees, all you've got to do is lay there. … It's just super intense heat, and all you do is sweat like a pig, and it's just meant to drive the toxins out of your body, raise your metabo-

lism and get your core temperature up.” While the pods have been a success in other parts of the world, their popularity in America hasn’t yet experienced similar growth. “There have been about 30,000 of these pods sold worldwide, but only maybe 2,000 or 3,000 in the United States,” Albright said. “In Russia it's a medical device where you can't have a detox center, a weight loss center or a hospital in the country of Russia without a pod, otherwise you can't get licensed. In Japan and Taiwan and places like that, there are pod centers everywhere. Wellness has always been more popular overseas.” The Emerge Body Transformations team has benefited from the pods personally and was hooked from their first sessions and has seen the effects of the therapy in action. “My wife recommends it for professional dancers,” said Randall, whose wife, Alyona Yakovleva-Randall, founded the Indiana Ballet Conservatory in 2010. “They can lay in it for 10 minutes and loosen up. My wife loves it. She was in here yesterday, and she wanted to come back today. She loves the feeling when she gets out. She gets out and feels brand new.”

Adriane Villegas uses one of the Emerge Body Transformations pods.

Future of Fitness “This will be the next big thing in fitness,” Emerge Body Transformations co-founder Rob Albright said. “Tanning centers are kind of keeping an eye on it … and eventually they'll get caught up. Eventually I think these will be everywhere. We just want to be first and build a brand around Indianapolis with maybe one here, one in Zionsville, one in Fishers, one in Carmel, maybe one on the west side, so there might be five Emerge Body Transformations salons in Indy. If the concept works, we want to take it to downtown Manhattan, downtown Chicago and Miami Beach — we could see this building.” The Emerge Body Transformations founders estimated maybe 500 such pod-centered spas exist in the world, but theirs is the first in the United States. “Twenty-five years ago they were ahead of their time,” Albright said. “They're just now getting to the point where the timing is right and we think America will buy into this concept. Everywhere you go they’re the most popular machine.” More: EmergeBodyTransformations.com Facebook.com/EmergeBodyTransformations

Pennington ready for new role at Amy Beverland By Sam Elliott • sam@youarecurrent.com The Metropolitan School District of Lawrence Township tapped Noblesville administrator Jered Pennington as the third leadership principal in Amy Beverland Elementary School history beginning this school year. Pennington has spent the past four years as the assistant principal at Promise Road Elementary following 12 years of teaching — 11 at White River Elementary. “The building (I was) in had roughly 780 students and Amy Beverland is getting close to 820 students,” Pennington said. “The most notable difference in terms of the structure of the building is that I was in a building serving students in kindergarten through fifth grade whereas Amy Beverland is first through sixth grade with the kindergarten being at the Early Learning Center there on campus.” Pennington will succeed Susan Jordan, who was struck and killed by a school bus having jumped the curb outside the building during dismissal Jan. 23, in the role. “I think it goes without saying that where they’ve been presents some challenges, but I also know that where they’ve been creates an

opportunity for me to be successful. I want to make sure I not only value and appreciate where they’ve been, also where they currently are making sure that I’m not only sympathetic but supportive and, most importantly, getting to know them on a deeper level so we can start our work together moving forward,” Pennington said. “The

last thing Amy Beverland needs is for somebody to come in and make wholesale changes. Their world has been turned upside-down, and they’re on the path of healing and staying on their feet and moving forward, and I look forward to working alongside them in that process.” Pennington was selected from a pool of approximately 50 applicants. “Having had the opportunity to meet and greet meeting many of the families, the staff members, the students and the support from the district administration has been nothing short of remarkable, and I’ve been welcomed with open arms already at Amy Beverland, and I look forward to continuing to get to know every single person in that building and continuing the great culture that exists there,” he said. Pennington graduated from Western Boone High School and holds a bachelor’s degree in education from Indiana University-Purdue University Indianapolis. He earned his master’s degree and administrative license from Indiana Wesleyan University in 2008 and 2012, respectively. Pennington and his wife, Christy, live in Noblesville and have two teenage sons. Pennington met with Amy Beverland students and families during an open house reception at the school May 24.

Beginning this year with 20 percent of the district’s senior staff, one-fifth of HSE employees will receive checks each year. “This is $7,600 per year, but given the fact we don’t require that after somebody’s been hired, it’s years we can go and not that we suspect anybody of anything, we just think it’s a good tool to maintain as secure an environment as possible,” Supt.

Claxton found additional resources online in preparation for last spring’s awareness week and plans to do more that week again next spring. “I emailed the National Stuttering Association and they helped by sending us some supplies and pamphlets, so for the next couple months, I got a couple friends together and we ended up making posters to hang around

HSE utilizing more portable classrooms By Sam Elliott • sam@youarecurrent.com Six Hamilton Southeastern Schools will be utilizing portable classrooms on their property this year as funding from facilities the voter-approved referendum allowed for the hiring of more teachers in an effort to reduce class sizes. “All of the units have already been moved,” HSE Schools Facilities Manager Harry Delks said. “They’re all in place, they’re working on skirting, electrical and doing the work on installing that now.” Fishers Elementary will house one portable classroom unit, Brooks School Elementary will use two and New Britton Elementary will have three. Lantern Road will have one unit plus one quad unit of four classrooms, which will also be used at Hamilton Southeastern Junior High and Geist Elementary.

The portable classroom outside Hamilton Southeastern Junior High has been set and is ready to have power supplied. (Submitted photos)

The portable units were set and foundations complete when Delks gave the HSE School Board an update July 13, with work on installing power and sidewalks and ramps into the rooms to follow soon. HSE Supt. Dr. Allen Bourff has told the school board he would like to begin discussions soon on permanent solutions to replace the use of portable classrooms at the district’s schools.

The 2016-17 school year begins Aug. 10 for more than 21,000 kindergartencolumn ers through seniors of Hamilton Southeastern Schools. Our teachers and administrators are actively preparing for another exciting season of awardwinning instruction and engagement. We look forward to seeing each student and to working with parents and community partners for a great year. (On) May 3, our community passed the district’s operating referendum with a 71 percent majority. It was a great vote of confidence, and HSE Schools will enthusiastically rise to the challenge. As promised, here is what you can expect in 2016-2017: • Lower class sizes K-6 – Portable classrooms have been leased to immediately address overcrowding at the elementary level this fall. • More high quality teachers – HSE welcomes 43 additional teachers K-6 to limit class sizes and provide students with more personalized instruction. • Assistant principals in all K-4 buildings – Many of our elementary school enrollments exceed 700 students. The addition of administrative support will enable principals to devote more time to advancing

instruction. • iPads for K-8 students; laptops for grades 9-12 – As part of the HSE21 initiative, Hamilton Southeastern Schools has implemented the final phases of a 1:1 digital program K-8 and a Bring Your Own Device program in grades 9-12. The goal of HSE21 is to prepare students for global competition and transform learning through inquiry, STEAM and technology-rich instruction. • Fee Relief for Parents – In direct response to the concerns of many parents, HSE administrators, principals and teachers have worked diligently this summer to reduce — and in many cases eliminate — rental and participation fees for the upcoming year. Hamilton Southeastern is home to an amazing set of champions. For all your support of these champions — and many others in the making — thank you! Our teachers, staff and administrators will always work to grow your trust. Now, for a great school year! Enroll your new students online at hse.k12. in.us/ADM/enrollment/index.aspx.

Hamilton Southeastern builds new offices By Sam Elliott • sam@youarecurrent.com School’s out, but work hasn’t gotten any easier for Hamilton Southeastern Schools Facilities Manager administration Harry Delks. As a result of the school district’s successful operating referendum, Delks has been busy as new incoming hires have him overseeing building new offices for HSE’s latest employees. “We’re doing a whole lot of work this summer. It’s busier than I think it’s ever been for me,” he said. “We’re building a lot of offices for the assistant principals we’re bringing on.” Each of the district’s elementary schools added assistant principals, as the positions were promised as part of the referendum approved by voters. Seven schools required more than just rearranging furniture to accommodate a new office. “We’re managing this ourselves, just having subcontractors do all this work and it really is going well,” Delks said. “I think we’re going to accomplish everything before school starts.”

Fishers resident Bettyjo Bouchey has been announced as the new program staff director for undergraduate business programs at National Louis University’s College of Professional Studies and Advancement. Bouchey is an associate professor of business and management, has taught at the school since 2015 and will now help NLU with its program development while overseeing program operations and continuing to teach courses. “I believe that everyone deserves the opportunity to Bouchey pursue post-secondary education — and National Louis University is one of the best places to do so,” Bouchey stated. “I am honored to join NLU and to help more students earn their degrees to advance their careers.” Bouchey previously worked at Harrison College, where she was the vice president of instruction and was responsible for instruc-

HSE fees on decline By Sam Elliott • sam@youarecurrent.com Parents of students within Hamilton Southeastern Schools can expect to money pay a little less overall for school fees this 2016-17 school year. “One really positive thing that came out of the referendum — there were lots of them with that passing — we were able to restore some supply budgets,” HSE Schools Business Manager Cecilie Nunn said. “A number of the material fees have been reduced.” Many textbook and material fees have been removed or reduced across grade levels. Rental fees for iPads at the elementary levels and laptops at the high schools have been decreased from $125 to $90. “Next year will be our first year for iPads at the elementary level, so we did a rental fee for those kids who are going to rent an iPad,” Nunn said. “If they bring their own, there’s no rental fee. That’s only if they’re renting one from us.” An average elementary student’s fees may decrease from $21 to $48, Nunn said, without an iPad rental fee if a student can bring their

own device. “Junior high fees are falling even more significantly than elementary — $15 to $56 depending on the student’s class schedule without the rental,” she added. High school students’ fees can vary even more thanks to more class options with different fees attached, but some consumable fees and materials fees are falling at Fishers High School and Hamilton Southeastern High School.

Enroll online — Hamilton Southeastern Schools begins the 2016-17 year Aug. 10. To assist new families or first-time students in the district, HSE Schools is now offering online enrollment. If you have a child entering kindergarten, or attending HSE Schools in another grade level, you may begin filling out the enrollment forms online at HSE.k12.in.us/ADM/ enrollment.

Lunch prices on rise — National legislation first passed in 2010 has put Hamilton Southeastern Schools in the position of needing to raise its weighted average lunch price by 10 cents before next school year or else risk losing out on millions of dollars in federal reimbursements. The district staff’s recommendation to the school board was to increase HSE’s weighted average meal price by 10 cents to $2.71. The added 50 cents per week per student translates to an additional $18 over the course of the school year.

HSE acquires 35 new buses — Hamilton Southeastern Schools’ fleet of approximately 300 total school buses will include 35 brand new ones before the upcoming 2016-17 school year begins. Repairs and maintenance on the 33 buses being replaced has cost the school district more than $87,000 in the past year. The district will enter a three-year lease-to-own agreement with Kerlin Bus Sales and trade in the buses being replaces for a credit on the new vehicles.

Food for thought

F R O M   T HE backshop Clinton lacking regard for women If anyone out there was watching the GOP convention July 18, we’re sure you were struck by the emotional speech by Patricia Smith, mother of Sean Smith, who died in the 2012 attack on the U.S. Embassy in Benghazi. She pointedly blamed Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton for not providing the necessary security that fateful night. She said Clinton “looked me squarely in the eye and told me a video was responsible” for the attack. We now know that’s not the case; clearly, it was a terrorist attack. We couldn’t help but feel the anguish and pain Smith still is suffering in the wake of her tragic loss. We, too, can feel the betrayal she experienced after being lied to by Clinton. Wanting the last word, Clinton then accused Smith of lying. Can you imagine? It really gets one thinking: After all we hear about Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump’s polling deficit among women voters, this incident is telling - enormously so - as to what Clinton really thinks of women. To lie to a grieving mother is beyond the pale. While politics can be a brutal game, we believe strongly that this incident fully demonstrates once and for all that the only woman Clinton cares about is herself. ••• Locally owned and operated businesses take center stage from noon to 4 p.m. Aug. 28 for the City of Lawrence’s Indiana Originals Expo & Marketplace at Theater on The Fort.

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Stupid and evil Commentary by Terry Anker One wonders if Gutenberg and his contemporaries imagined the impact that their printing press might have on the world – namely, it freed the flow of information in a game-changing way. More people could claim a voice; and, more people could hear it. Certainly, there must have been some discussion as the stylish folk of 1439 peered over the craft ale they were sampling from their distinctive lead tankards from the new maker’s space around the corner. What does it all mean? What will this new “social” media bring us? So, now that we are collectively 600 years older and wiser, what have we learned? The newest “social” media allows for an even more liberal movement of information than did Mr. G’s original device. Even as we contemplate the changes afoot in the order of things now that the New York Times has fewer readers than Kylie Jenner, those changes are marching on. Articulate and profane alike, we all have a voice. Unvarnished

and unmitigated, we can all be heard! In a symphony of ever increasing cacophony, should we raise our voices even louder to ensure that WE ARE HEARD ABOVE THE RABBLE. OUR VOICE MATTERS! LISTEN TO ME! Gutenberg printed what he believed to be the most important ideas – and hoped to share them widely. In a quick survey of modern social media, it seems that one is more likely confronted with hate and bigotry than with the advancing of affirmative ideas. “You are stupid! Your candidate is stupid. This recipe is stupid. You must be too stupid to see how stupid you are! We’re only saying you’re stupid to be nice – we really think you are stupid AND evil.” In a world where everyone is in the ring, is it possible to imagine that most hits will be above the belt?

Q U O T E  O F   T HE  W EEK Keep your values positive because your values become your destiny.

– Mahatma Gandhi

A few weeks back, I wrote a column about one of my sons deciding not to make his Catholic confirmation. I humor actually thought nothing more of it until I started receiving a ton of emails, both good and bad. What was my take-away? People are reading me! During the summer! And if they are getting worked up over a rather non-controversial issue like a teenager’s choice of faith, imagine what would happen if I gave them something really write-the-editor worthy. Like if I addressed the upcoming election and why I’ll be voting for Hillary. Yes, Hillary! Of course, politics can turn nasty in a heartbeat, so perhaps I should withhold my rather low opinion of “The Donald” and discuss matters of a less divisive nature. Would my support of gay marriage strike a chord in our conservative suburban bubble? I like to think not, but I know my audience. Maybe I could write at length on the reasons I’m both Catholic and pro-choice, a seemingly glaring contradiction until I explained my views. Which, unfortunately, I won’t be doing right now because I have bigger fish to fry. Another time, then. I could always rant about the deplorable state of public education and the appalling treatment of its teachers, but people around here tend to put in their ear plugs whenever that topic is broached. Maybe I should stick with mom issues, which are, without question, my forte. I could easily pen a whole book on why epidurals, infant formula and letting your 2-year old watch Nemo for 17 minutes so that you can swallow a pretzel nugget and sponge-bathe your pits are all OK. Seriously. It’s maternal survival before pre-school applications, my friends, and don’t let anyone shame you into doing otherwise. Have I honked enough people off yet? I feel as though I’m just getting started. I have yet to mention immunizations, Black Lives Matter, gun control or Daenerys Targaryen’s claim to the Iron Throne, all of which I strongly support. A little food for thought. Enjoy your meal! Peace out.

Launch hosting third FailFest By Sam Elliott • sam@youarecurrent.com For its third annual FailFest event, Launch Fishers is partnering with Fishers High School to make the day local business bigger and better for attendees. “This year's installment is actually a huge departure from what we've done in the past,” Launch Fishers Event Manager Rachel Spudic said. “Historically, the past two installments have been very much like TED Talks and just a single track where you come in in the morning, you have your kickoff speaker, you have your co-hosts introduced and then one after another you have speakers come up from a variety of industries and backgrounds, give a 15-20-minute speech about a time they failed and how that's propelled them on to future success and what they've learned from that. it's always kind of been in one room, one seat — yeah you get up for lunch, but it's very much a one-track event.” So, housing the event from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. July 28 at Fishers High School, 13000 Promise Rd., made sense for the event’s evolution. “This year, because we have so much space within the high school to work with, we're

DIVORCE – WHAT TO EXPECT: College Expenses In Indiana, in many family law cases, in addition to receiving normal child support, either parent can request the court to order the other parent to help contribute towards post-secondary educational expenses once the child nears college. In any Dissolution of Marriage, Post-Dissolution, or Paternity action, the court will almost always enter a child support obligation to be paid by one of the parties (typically, the noncustodial parent). The Indiana Child Support Guidelines are presumed to be applicable in every such proceeding and govern the payment and determination of child support. The Guidelines are based on the “Income Shares” theory; more specifically, that both parents are responsible for the support of a child based upon their respective income shares. However, once the child is emancipated, and if college expenses are not discussed prior to emancipation, one parent may be left with the burden of post-secondary educational expenses, without contribution from the other parent. Effective July 1, 2012, the Indiana State Legislature reduced the age of emancipation from 21 to 19 years of age. Being mindful of typical family circumstances, the legislature wanted to more fairly recognize families where the college-aged child was residing at school and spending little to no time with the custodial parent, who was receiving support. However, this change has had a major effect upon a parent’s ability to request post-secondary education expenses. Thus, if you have a current support order and a child nearing the age of 19, you should consult an attorney in order to determine your options for emancipation and requesting post-secondary education expenses. Plan accordingly and preserve your right to request such expenses prior to the child’s 19th birthday. Unlike child support, post-secondary educational expenses are not guaranteed, thereby making each situation fact-specific.

When determining post-secondary education expenses, courts will consider several factors. These factors include, but are not limited to, the child’s aptitude and ability to attend college, which determines the child’s college selections. Additionally, courts consider the child’s ability to contribute to educational expenses either through work, scholarships, grants, obtaining loans, and obtaining other sources of financial aid reasonably available to the child and each parent. Typically, courts are looking to the child to help contribute towards their future in some way. Finally, and arguably, the most significant factor the courts consider and place a lot of emphasis is on a parent’s ability to contribute toward such college expenses. Thus, the amount each party in a post-secondary education matter is ordered to pay will be very fact-sensitive and can vary significantly depending upon the aforementioned factors. The Guidelines suggest typical expenses, for which parents can be expected to help contribute towards college. In most cases, typical post-secondary educational expenses shall include expenses such as, tuition, room and board, and books and fees. With proper preparation, based on this new legislation, families can plan ahead and help reduce any anxiety about the allocation of college expenses.

IU Health has released a new way of seeing a physician. technology With IU Health Video Visits, patients can now see a physician or practitioner without ever leaving their home. “This is an opportunity for a patient to connect with a physician on many types of devices,” said Ian McDaniel, executive director of tele-health and retail services at IU Health. “Physicians can interact and interface with that patient via video and voice.” Video Visits are used for low-intensity problems, such as coughs, colds, flus, skin conditions and eye conditions. A pilot program was launched internally and used for several months with IU Health employees and dependents. McDaniel said that many patients have interacted with a physician via phone, and this is a step up for physicians to diagnose. “Physicians have been practicing with less information across the course of history, and now we are given the opportunity to interact with more information than we had on the telephone,” McDaniel said. If a physician be-

From friendship to marriage to motherhood, “Steel Magnolias” covers it all. The play runs from now art until Aug. 7 at the Center Stage Community Theatre in Lebanon, at 604 Powell St. “It centers around the relationship these women have that they always come back together,” said Amanda Bell, who plays M’lynn. “There’s no way this story doesn’t affect people.” Bell worked in community theatre before, but she took a 20-year hiatus to raise her family in Fishers. She got involved again a few years ago through Nickel Plate Players and started auditioning more. Bell decided to audition for “Steel Magnolias” after stage-managing a show at the Westfield Playhouse where she met Pam Kinglsey, who encouraged Bell to audition alongside her. “Steel Magnolias” takes place in Truvy’s beauty salon in Louisiana where six women come together on Saturday mornings to get their hair done. The story takes place during four scenes, with each focusing on a new event beginning with a wedding. “It’s one of those plays that speaks to every milestone in a woman’s life,” said Pam Kingsley, who portrays Clariee. The play follows Shelby through marriage and motherhood, but also speaks about divorce, aging and dealing with an empty nest. Bell and Kingsley said it’s a beautifully written play with a powerful story, which is why threatres continue to produce it. “When people leave, I want them to feel uplifted because family and friendship means everything,” Kingsley said. “I want people … to know we are all in it together.” Tickets are $13 for students and seniors and $15 for adults.

Belfry sets 2016-17 season schedule By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com The Belfry Theatre’s 2016-17 season will feature a healthy dose of comedy and popular musicals with a dash of holitheater day adventure. The season opens with “Girls of the Garden Club” from Sept. 23 to Oct. 9. It will be directed by Noblesville resident Carla Crandall. “This is one of the first shows I appeared in (more than) 20 years ago, and one Crandall of our Belfry board members (Ginny Burt) appeared in it when I directed this show at another theatre about 15 years ago,” Crandall said. “She suggested I submit it for this season because it is such an inclusive show, well-suited for the experienced character actor as well as the novice. It is funny, well-written and everyone will be able to relate to the characters, a very funny show to start the season.” Connie Murello-Todd will direct two plays, “Dashing Through the Snow” from Nov. 25 to Dec. 11 and the season’s final show, Disney’s “The Little Mermaid” July 28 to Aug. 6, 2017. “'Little Mermaid' is a show I knew the kids

from 5 to 13 would love being a part of,” said Murrello-Todd, a Noblesville resident. The Disney musical will feature the Apprentice Players. In even numbered years, ages 5-13 are featured in the summer and in odd years it’s 13 to 20 years. Murello-Todd said there are staging challenges to both shows. “In ‘Dashing Through the Snow’ it needs to snow on stage and with ‘Little Mermaid’ we have to go under the sea and have a ship on stage for Prince Eric to sail on,” Murello-Todd said. Jeff Bick will direct the musical “How to Succeed in Business Without Really Trying” Jan 27 to Feb. 12. That will be followed by two comedies, “The Foreigner” (directed by Dana Lash) from March 24 to April 9 and “Perfect Wedding” (directed by Elaine Wagner) June 2 to June 18. Tickets are $18 for musicals and $15 for other plays. Tickets for children 12 and under are $12. Show times are 8 p.m. Friday and Saturday nights, 2 p.m. Saturday matinees and Sunday matinees (Apprentice Players’ shows). This is the 52nd season for Belfry Theatre, 10690 Greenfield Ave., the longest-running community theater in Hamilton County. For more, visit thebelfrytheatre.com.
