Things to kNOw before you cast your vote FACT: The School Board voted in January: $7.6M for 25 years equals $190M - NOT $90M.

FACT: Combined with the current debt of $188M (per DLGF), the total debt for the District will be $378M.

FACT: After a $0.20 referendum last fall, this additional $0.3079 will make the school tax rate over $2.00/$100 NAV. FACT: WWS already has the highest school tax rate in Hamilton Co. and the highest debt service rate, 61.89%. FACT: 73% of the requested monies will not be spent in any of the elementary schools. (no need per WWS) FACT: The existing WWS annual budget of $86,335,509 already includes a Capital Projects budget.

FACT: The 2016 fall referendum was more than twice the amount WWS "lost" due to property tax caps ($2,003,731). FACT: This referendum requests nearly 4 times the amount of "losses" due to property tax caps.

Fiscal accountability, transparency, and responsibility are needed at WWS - NOT another School Tax Referendum. WWS

Port authority approves request for proposals

By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com

The Hoosier Heritage Port Authority unanimously has approved a request for proposals for an operator of the Nickel travel Plate railroad. The vote was April 19. A review committee for the proposals would be made up of five board members, excluding Mike Obergfell because he is the president, and one member appointed by each of the three owners, Fishers, Noblesville and Hamilton County, to create a committee of eight people. Proposals must be received by June 13 and scoring will begin July 1. Scores will be brought to Obergfell to review and make recommendations. The railroad owners have the opportunity to interview the top-scoring proposers. Obergfell said the plan is to make the final award in July at the HHPA meeting or, if interviews run through July, hold a special meeting in August. “Time is short. We would like to get the operator going back on our line as soon as pos-

sible. The sooner, the better,” Obergfell said. At the end of the meeting, the HHPA board fielded questions from the public. One person asked about the state fair train, and Obergfell said there would be no state fair train in 2017. Previously, the railroad was operated by the Indiana Transportation Museum. Those operations were suspended last year. For more, visit hamiltoncounty.in.gov/257/ Hoosier-Heritage-Port-Authority.

The Noblesville Farmers Market, hosted in past years at the Riverview Health overflow lot, will move across the street May 6 to its new home at Federal Hill Commons. (Current file photo)

Main Street farmers market opens at Federal Hill May 6 news@currentnoblesville.com The Noblesville Farmers Market will open next week at its new location at Federal Hill Commons. event The annual market, organized by Noblesville Main Street and offering fresh produce, local arts and crafts, baked goods, food vendors, live music and more, will open at 8 a.m. May 6 and run until noon each week through Oct. 14. “The opening of the farmers market in our new home, Federal Hill Commons, is an exciting time,” said Chris Owens, CEO of Noblesville Main Street. “The City of Noblesville has sought our input from the start of planning this project, and we are happy to see activities begin and our community enjoy this amenity in downtown.” New to the market this year, the Main Street hospitality tent is sponsored by Community Health Network and is the location for patrons using SNAP benefits and Fresh Bucks, a local initiative to combat food insecurity. Fresh Bucks is a supplemental nutrition assistance program, formerly known as food stamps, which is a double-up program that allows customers who pay with their EBT card to double their dollars, up to $20 a day, spent on fruits and vegetables. The Fresh Bucks program is a project of the Indy Hunger Network, a local nonprofit whose goal is to ensure that anyone who is hungry can access nutritious food.

“Federal Hill Commons is an urban park meant to be enjoyed by all and accessible via car, bike or on foot,” Noblesville Parks Director Brandon Bennett said. “We are happy to showcase new features to enhance the market experience, including a playground on-site along with dedicated seating, restroom facilities and more. We look forward to what our partnership with Noblesville Main Street will offer our community in collaborative events and festivals.” With more than 80 vendors, the market is the oldest and largest in Hamilton County. It offers farm-fresh homegrown fruits, vegetables, meats, plants, herbs, flowers, honey, spices, wine, jams, jellies and salsas. Locally handmade items include baked goods, soaps, jewelry, artwork, quality crafts and pet products. The market’s food court offers breakfast and lunch choices and takeout items and snack food for those on the go. Tables and chairs also are provided for patrons to sit and visit while listening to live music. In keeping with a market tradition that began several years ago, the first Saturday of every month, June through October, will feature a limited business showcase, giving local businesses the opportunity to engage and connect with patrons. Noblesville Main Street also has planned special event days as part of the market. They include Kids Day June 24, a Health Fair July 22, Pie Day Aug. 12, Pet Day Sept. 23 and a chili cook-off Oct. 14.

City roundup: engineering news@currentnoblesville.com The City of Noblesville recently released its year-end annual report. The report details major accomCOMPREHENSIVE plishments from every city departREPORT ment and within the community during 2016, and each week, Current in Noblesville will be highlighting a portion of the report. This week, it’s engineering. To see the full report, visit bit. ly/2lDGclL. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The engineering department has a staff of 12 employees and manages the installation of all public works infrastructure for new residential, commercial and industrial developments. A major responsibility of the engineering department is the scoping, design, management and inspection of all capital improvement roadway projects. In general, staff manages all major roadway projects, which includes annual resurfacing to sidewalk and alley replacements, from preliminary conception to final completion. The department also provides construction management, support services for other city departments and develops procedures and guidelines for prospective developments. It also handles right-of-way and property purchasing management and oversees the city’s Municipal Separate Storm Sewer System (MS4) Program, manages ADA and Title VI programs, and administers the city’s traffic committee and field support for traffic operations. REALIGNMENTS and RESURFACINGS Noblesville realigned 17th Street at Conner Street (Ind. 32/38) near the Ivy Tech Project Resurfacing (linear feet) Resurfacing (miles) ADA ramps reconstructed ADA ramps newly constructed

Community College campus, formerly Noblesville Middle School. The road previously had an offset intersection at Conner Street. Ninth Street also had its first major resurfacing since 2004. The focus of the work ran from Logan Street to Pleasant Street. Additional side streets were resurfaced and repairs were done to curbs and alley approaches as part of the project. Noblesville has approximately 13 miles of public alleys throughout the city. One city block is equal to 1/16 of a mile. In 2016, the city began a new initiative to address deteriorating alleys. To begin the process, 60 approaches and 0.9 miles of the worst rated alleys were repaired at a cost of $450,000. SIDEWALK REPLACEMENT The engineering department resurfaced or replaced nearly twice as many linear feet of sidewalk in 2016 compared to 2015. These projects fixed ADA trip hazards and provided pedestrian connectivity. Major sidewalk projects in 2016 included Southwest Quad, Fairfield Farms, Pine Knoll, Little Chicago Road along Lions Creek Apartments and Creekside at Cedar Path. 196TH STREET TRAIL In 2016, 2,500 linear feet of sidewalk and trail was rehabilitated, including old sidewalk replaced with a new segment of trail along 196th Street from Hague Road to Morse Park and Beach. The project also removed an outdated bridge crossing with a new crossing to accommodate a full trail. The new trail connector effectively connects an existing trail network with Forest Park and downtown Noblesville to Morse Park and Beach. The project also will serve as a connector to potential future phases of the Levee Trail. 2014

The whole idea of the kaleidoscope is that as the colors change and shapes change, then so do all the things that are going on in our lives, including the classes that are going on here and all the different things that we’re doing.” Kalaidescope Krossing, housed in the 1920 home that sits at 185 S. Eighth St. in downtown Noblesville, adjacent to the Nickel Plate Arts campus, will offer a series of arts-related workshops and classes that focus on photography, journaling, crafts, performance art and more. “I want to offer things that you can’t just go anywhere and find,” Wood said. “I’m also trying to keep the price points low. Some of the classes will even be free, but a majority will range between $5 and $20. The whole house is laid out to be very flexible. “Depending on what the need is, we can do everything from if three or four women want to come over and play dominoes, all the way to maybe three different youth groups coming in from different churches. I’m trying to go with a more laid-back and informal feel because that’s what life is. It’s not perfect or polished.” Wood said her family has lived in Noblesville for more than 15 years and has seen the community transform into what it is now. “As (the city is) beginning to embrace the arts even more, I’m really excited for Kaleidoscope Krossing to be part of that downtown fabric,” she said. “It’s really just been a year or year-and-a-half since Kaleidoscope Krossing first came into my mind, but the story goes back much far-

ther than that.” Wood said she has been creative since childhood. Planning to be an architect, she graduated from Ball State University and was an architect for a number of years before leaving her full-time job in November to dedicate all of her time to Kaleidoscope Krossing. “I was inspired a lot by my mom, who is a very creative and artistic person. I think it almost must be in my DNA,” Wood said. “But then the other side of me, the part that really likes to teach and engage

meet beth wood An Ohio native, Beth Wood is a longtime Noblesville resident. She practiced as an architect for approximately 10 years before moving into roles in talent management and corporate communications for another 10 years. She is married to Marty Wood. Together they have three daughters, Maddie, 12, and twins Parker and Kenzie, 9. All attend Hazel Dell Elementary. The family also has two dogs, Roger (named after tennis pro Roger Federer), a black lab and border collie mix, and Leia (named after Princess Leia, a bloodhound, German Shepard, boxer mix).

with people, that has really come about since I started my career as an architect. About a decade ago, I was asked to lead the middle school and high school youth at (Noblesville) First Presbyterian Church. I really found my passion for teaching and working with others there. And then in architecture, there’s such a strong emphasis on teamwork and collaboration. All of those factors really impacted me, kind of like the kaleidoscope. When this property came onto the market, it seemed like the perfect solution to all these different passions of mine.”

Grand opening party: From 5 to 9 p.m. May 9, join Kaleidoscope Krossing for its grand opening celebration with a Cinco de Mayo theme. Local artists will have their work on display and will be doing live mini demonstrations. All upcoming workshops will be unveiled, and guests will be entered in multiple drawings for prizes. No RSVP needed. Bible Journaling: From 6:30 to 8 p.m. May 9, Beth Wood will lead this interactive and creative workshop where guests explore Bible journaling in several fun ways, learning how to use creative fonts, play with different coloring techniques, sample various coloring tools and learn how to incorporate your favorite Bible verses. Photo Explorations: From 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. May 3, 10 and 17, these one-part, two-hour Bible studies will explore the photographs from the book “Journeys With the Messiah.” Guests will take photos during the workshops. The photos will be displayed in a gallery exhibit at the end of the series of workshops. Mother’s Day Make-It and Take-Its: From 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. May 13, guests can take time for their mom and make her a special gift or two for Mother’s Day.

Prepping for poltergeists and mint juleps

Practice makes perfect

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Commentary by Terry Anker “How do you get to Carnegie Hall?” inquired a visitor to New York City looking for the famed music venue. “Practice, practice, practice” said the man on the street, misunderstanding her need for geographic coordinates from a cartographer rather than work-ethic advice from a smart aleck. Still, he made a good point. If we ever hope to move from audience to stage, hard work is key. Sure, talent figures in. Certainly, accomplishment requires a bit of aptitude – and a connected relative can’t hurt. But for most of us, the overwhelming majority of us, in fact, success demands hard work. So, if practice is the undisputed linchpin required to get us from a spot in the balcony to one at center stage, why do so few of us think about it? As youngsters, we practiced everything. But as adults, we might call what we do a practice (medical and legal, among others), but seldom do we commit to two hours after a day’s work to improve our game. It makes some sense. Practice leads to mastery. Most of us don’t continue to work on the multiplication tables we learned as kids. But, aren’t there things that we’ve yet to master? Aren’t there things in our lives that would benefit from a bit more practice? Famed tutor to Alexander the Great, Aristotle, said, “We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, therefore, is not an act but a habit.” If this is solid coaching to someone who came to be known as “The Great,” isn’t it good enough for us?

Campaign encourages teens to call or text for help Commentary submitted by CEO Indiana Youth Services Association David Westenberger, Indiana Senator James Merritt, Indiana State Treasurer Kelly Mitchell “If someone had called for help right away, maybe my son would have survived his first high school party.” It’s a statement few parents think they’ll ever make, but one that far too many Hoosier parents have already made. In an effort to create awareness – particularly during prom and graduation season - Indiana Youth Services Association’s Make Good Decisions program and State Sen. Jim Merritt, author of Indiana’s Lifeline Law, have partnered with Indiana’s Text-to-911 services and Indiana State Treasurer Kelly Mitchell, chair of the Statewide 911 Board, to increase public awareness about the ability to call or Text-to-911 in an emergency. Indiana’s Lifeline Law provides legal amnesty from prosecution for underage drinking, and many related drinking offenses, for a person who calls or texts (or for persons assisting) and reports a medical emergency, sexual assault or other crime. The

purpose of the partnership is to encourage young people to contact 911 for help when they find themselves or a friend in an emergency. HOW IT WORKS Those who contact 911 via Text-to-911 or by calling must demonstrate that they are acting in good faith by completing ALL of the following three steps: • Call and provide their full name and other relevant information requested by law enforcement officers and emergency medical responders. • Stay at the scene with the ‘victim’ until law enforcement and emergency medical assistance arrives. Cooperate with authorities on the scene. Indiana is leading the nation with innovative technology to better serve Hoosiers and make it easier and safer for the public to contact 911 in an emergency. Indiana is one of only four states that offers a statewide deployment of Text-to-911 services. If you’re a parent to teens, please encourage them to call or text 911, and stay and cooperate if they find themselves in an emergency.

Every year we have a blowout Kentucky Derby celebration at our house, and every year, in anticipation of said humor party, we run around like maniacs finishing DIY projects begun in October and taking a half-hearted stab at spring cleaning. I’m reminded of the 1982 film “Poltergeist.” Two weeks out, life seems to be going along per usual, but as we approach the first Saturday in May, strange things begin to happen. My children start disappearing, one to her best friend Lisa’s, another to his room at the end of the upstairs hallway. And the youngest, whom I’ll call Carol Ann for this piece, is literally nowhere to be found. I can sometimes hear her highpitched voice at night, coming from the walls ... or wait, maybe the TV, but I can never seem to locate her. With a couple of days to go, my husband Doo and I aren’t sleeping much. Terrifying questions prey on our sanity: Will we suffer another ham-tastrophe reminiscent of 2011? Why have only 15 percent of our guests RSVP’d? It’s not unusual for us to hallucinate chairs set up in odd formations and bottles of Makers Mark mysteriously floating through the air. So I call in professional help. The Maids arrive in force, wielding strange high-tech probes they call “vacuums” while assessing the paranormal activity of filth in every room. Our domestic predicament is declared “legit” and the exorcism begins. Hours later, having located Carol Ann ensconced in a “Gossip Girl” marathon on Netflix and sanitized the home against future bacterial possession, they depart, announcing, “This house is clean.” Doo and I can only hope they’re right. mint juleps only go so far in taming a party poltergeist.

St.Vincent House aids patients’ families

By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com St.Vincent Health officials saw a need to help families who need to be close to loved ones. philanthropy Thus, St.Vincent House has been established to ease that burden for people who might have a family member under care for an extended period of time. “We are serving all families that have patients at St.Vincent, so that includes St.Vincent Hospital, Peyton Manning Children’s Hospital, Women’s Hospital, so we’re serving all ages,” said Connie Cripe, director of St.Vincent House and Noblesville resident. Cripe said the house was built as part of a St.Vincent Foundation capital campaign. She said it required a little more than $8 million in funding to create the house, which opened April 20 at 2031 Dugan Dr., Indianapolis. The house is directly behind Peyton Manning Children’s Hospital. There are 20 rooms available. “Basically, if they really need a place to

stay, if they have someone in the hospital for an extended period of time or even a week or two, this is providing them with a home away from home where they can go,” Cripe said. “Each room has two full beds, Wi-Fi in the room, a TV and a bathroom.” There is a chapel, meditation spaces, playground, playroom, library, healing garden, walking trail, laundry facilities and kitchen facilities. There is a shuttle to the hospital. “We’re encouraging people to make meals for our families and we have a signup sheet online,” Cripe said. Cripe said they are asking for a $20 rental fee per night. “But we will obviously work with the families that are unable to pay the $20,” Cripe said. Cripe, who previously worked for the Ronald McDonald House for 12 years, said families must be referred by their social worker. For more, visit give.stvincent.org/ StVHouse.

Commentary by Cecelia E. Schmalbach Fact No. 1: Melanoma is a leading cause of death. There are two classifications of skin cancer: melanoma (which can aggressively spread throughprevention out the body) and non-melanoma (basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma, which responds to treatment fairly well and has a lower rate of spreading). Melanoma is often a result of an intense sunburn. Just one sunburn in your entire life puts you at greater risk for melanoma. On the other hand, non-melanoma skin cancer is often a result of cumulative exposure to the sun over time, such as occurs with prolonged outdoor activities and professions. Fact No. 2: All skin tones can get skin cancer. Although fair-skinned people are more likely to get skin cancer, those with darker skin can develop the disease as well. Anyone can get a sunburn, which increases the risk for melanoma. Fact No. 3: Tanning booths increase your risk.

Many believe that if they get a “baseline” tan from a tanning booth, they will not burn as easily when they go on vacation. Unfortunately, there is no evidence to support that theory. Fact No. 4: Prevention and early detection can save your life. When outdoors, cover up. Stay in the shade, wear wide-brimmed hats and use sun block of at least SPF 30. Try to avoid being in direct sunlight during the peak hours of 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. You may have heard about the ABCD warning signs of skin cancer (Asymmetry, Border irregularity, Color variation and Diameter), but equally important is to be vigilantly aware of E: Evolution, or change.

Hammered dulcimer workshop set for May 19 By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com

Rick Thum will hold an intensive workshop May 19 to 21 at the Noblesville Community Center. (Submitted photo)

Elizabeth Robinette selected a hammered dulcimer as part of a raffle victory during a Kentucky Music Week in Bardstown, Ky., two years ago. music So the Noblesville resident figured she might as well learn how to play it. “I’ve taken some lessons and found Rick Thum is one of the best instructors I’ve been around,” Robinette said. “I’m being kind of selfish. I didn’t want to drive to see him (in hometown of St. Louis). I wanted to bring him to us. I thought there might be enough people in central Indiana that had an interest to do that.” Thum agreed to do an intensive three-day workshop once Robinette helped find a location. The A to Z Noblesville event will be held at 9 a.m. to noon and 1 to 4 p.m. May 19, 20 and 21 at the Noblesville Community Center, 372 S. 8th St. There also will be sessions from 6 to 7:30 p.m. May 19 and 20. The cost is $175. Thum had been a drummer, a guitar player and trumpet player in rock and roll bands. “I played on the Admiral that used to float up and down the Mississippi River,” Thum said. “I played a 12-string guitar for almost 14 years in a church choir. I ran into the hammered dulcimer, and it was my instrument. I just fell in love with it. It kind of changed music for me forever. I’ve been doing it full-time since 1990.” Thum travels to festivals giving workshops. “I teach it, play it and build about 10 of them a year,” Thum said. “Between festivals and building, it keeps me busy. Last year I was on the road for 103 days.” Thum typically does three or four A to Z intensive workshops per year. For more, visit rthum.com/wp/noblesville-in-a-to-z-workshop/.

NPA to host watercolor sessions By Heather Collins editorial@youarecurrent.com Nickel Plate Arts will host watercolor painting with Anna Afshar from 6 to 9 p.m. each Thursday from May 4 to May art 25. During the watercolor painting sessions, Afshar will cover most watercolor techniques, including how to use different materials and the basics of color theory, drawing, perspective and composition. Sessions will include work from photos, still life and on-location sites. Afshar, a Russian-born artist who lives in Indianapolis, has studied with well-known artists and teachers from around the world, including Alvaro Castagnet, David Taylor, Cheng-Khee Chee and Frank Webb. “Watercolor still remains my first and only love. It always surprises and keeps you on your toes. You can never quite relax and think, ‘I got it’,” Afshar said. Afshar is a signature member of the Watercolor Society of Indiana, Hoosier Salon and Indiana Artists Club. In 2015, she won “Best of Show” at the Watercolor Society of Indiana’s 2015 Annual Juried Exhibit and the

An empire in an afternoon Commentary by Don Knebel People come to Istanbul, Turkey from all over the world to see the Hagia Sophia, the Blue Mosque and other architectravel tural masterpieces. If they have time, they go on to Ephesus and Aspendos to see the ruins of great works from antiquity. On the way home, they might visit Jerusalem and see the Dome of the Rock. All these historic structures, as well as some that no longer exist, can be seen during a pleasant stroll along Istanbul’s Golden Horn. The Golden Horn is a horn-shaped estuary that flows into the Bosporus Strait separating European and Asian Istanbul. Until recently, the Golden Horn was home to slaughter houses, foundries, factories and shipyards, creating a polluted waterway and an unattractive shoreline. In the late 1980s, the Istanbul government began demolishing the industrial buildings and replacing them with parks and museums. Miniaturk, one of the largest miniature parks in the world, opened on a 15-acre reclamation site in 2003. Miniaturk includes 1:25 scale models of important architectural works from areas

once controlled by the Ottoman Empire. The more than 125 miniature reproductions include about 45 from Istanbul, 45 from the rest of Turkey and the remainder from other areas, including Israel. The most interesting of the miniatures are interpretations of two lost buildings considered in antiquity among the Seven Wonders of the World: The colonnaded temple to Artemis in Ephesus that was demolished by a Christian mob in 401 after Emperor Theodosius I outlawed paganism, and the tomb of Mausolus, the source of the word “mausoleum” and the architectural inspiration for the Indiana War Memorial, which was destroyed by a series of earthquakes in the Middle Ages. Visiting Miniaturk is not a substitute for actually exploring the historic structures of Istanbul. But as an introduction to Turkey and the glory of the Ottoman Empire, it is worth a couple of hours. 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.
