Common Council recap

DISPATCHES

Action: Rezoning of Terry Lee Crossing project What it means: The Terry Lee Crossing project at the undeveloped southeast corner of Ind. 37 and Ind. 32 will consist of a Terry Lee Hyundai dealership and commercial area with seven other lots for retail. The land has a long history of being problematic and still faces state and FEMA approval to be rezoned from Flood Hazard to Planned Business. Since presenting the project to the Noblesville Plan Commission on Aug. 19, the development has dropped the electronic portion at the top of two signs and agreed to remove the proposed off-site sign.

What’s next: The zoning change and preliminary development plan may be voted on at the Sept. 10 meeting.

Action: Special consideration for K1 Speed What it means: California-based K1 Speed Inc.’s proposal will create an electric go-kart racing center in the 71,830 square feet vacant industrial building that formerly housed Helmer Labs at 17395 Bergen Blvd. Asst. Planning Director Andy Wert said the property would not change structurally on the outside but non-weight bearing walls would be demolished on the inside. The Noblesville Plan Commission unanimously voted unfavorably about the project the week before the common council meeting. “The (plan) commission was concerned about use in Corporate Campus that we worked diligently to create an industry park,” Council Member Greg O’Connor said. “It could detract the marketability for other businesses that might come to Noblesville… It didn’t seem to make sense.”

What’s next: The proposal may be voted on at O’Connot the Sept. 10 meeting.

What it means: The city is in the process of making offers to acquire 6.4 acres between Ind. 19 and Logan and Conner streets. Proposed plans for West Gateway Park include an amphitheater, trails, public event space, shelters, a parking area constructed of pervious pavement, and more. “Plans are for some type of performance area,” Parks Director Don Seal said. “It’ll enhance the downtown experience and hopefully encourage future development of property west of White River.”

What’s next: The council unanimously approved the amendment. Planning Director Christy Langley said the West Gateway had to be formally adopted to be eligible for park impact fees.

Seal

Action: Amending ordinance on pedestrian walkways and parking spaces What it means: Langley presented two major changes to the city’s Unified Development Ordinance. The city has minimum parking spaces requirements but nothing for the maximum parking spaces allowed. While businesses may exceed the maximum space allotment, Langley said pervious payment or pavers must be used in a preservation effort to save storm water. The other change provides pedestrians more safety in large parking lots. Langley said a walkway will separate pedestrians from vehicle traffic at the entrance of businesses. If approved, these changes will affect future development and not current businesses.

What’s next: The amendment may be voted on at the Sept. 10 meeting.

What it means: NFD Fire Chief Ken Gilliam said Wayne Township can provide basic life saving services from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday by paying a paramedic to stay at their station for 40 hours a week. Gilliam said the agreement will save Wayne Township $4,250.01 for the rest of 2013 and $17,000 if it continues in house service in 2014. “I think it’s a fair trade,” he said, adding Noblesville is paid $125,000 each year to provide ALS service. “We got into this to be good neighbors.”

Canine inspires double amputee

By Patricia Mangan • news@currentnoblesville.com The expression “A Dog is a Man’s Best Friend” is debatable for Noblesville resident La-Gretta Norvell, 56. Her feeling is that it also is woman’s best friend and she everyday people is living proof. In 2006, Norvell became a double amputee after discovering a blood clot in her aorta which traveled to her legs. Months of hospitalization and rehabilitation and a move to an apartment complex with a first floor unit were just the beginning. Norvell lost her job. A former athlete, she struggled to adjust to a wheelchair and double prosthetic legs. Devastated, angry and depressed, she nearly gave up. Until her life changed completely. “The best part is that I got a new best friend – my dog named Colt,” Norvell said, adding the canine was named after the Indianapolis football team that won the Super Bowl that same year. “This dog is so smart as if he sensed I was not really normal as other people.” A dog lover who previously had larger dogs, Norvell adopted a small rat terrier. The Norvell family loves sports and naming the dog Colt after the Super Bowl winning team was a perfect fit. The family had something to celebrate even when times were extremely trying. Colt loves to play. He has a huge box of toys and his own bedroom with a mini bed, mattress, sheets and pillowcases in Norvell’s walk-in bed-

room closet. “Colt is my companion and I enjoy playing with him,” Norvell said. “I spoil him a lot and even bought him 20 outfits and a winter coat as we go jogging together when I use my scooter and attach his leash.” Norvell found her way back to the person she was before her amputations and said Colt had a lot to do with her transformation.

The coolest backyard ever – Natural Light Patio Covers There’s nowhere anyone would rather be on a beautiful summer day than the backyard deck, in a comfortable chair, sipping a cool drink. And yet, this idyllic scenario can so easily be spoiled if the sun is too hot and too direct. There are dozens of solutions to block the sun, but nothing is as effective or rewarding as a Natural Light Patio Cover. Imbued with almost magical qualities, the covers block all U.V. rays and 75 per cent of infrared rays, while letting through most of the light. The result is a cool setting that is still filled with natural light. There isn’t a giant solid awning casting a shadow not only on the deck but on the room behind the adjacent windows. There isn’t a large umbrella that has to be folded down every time the wind picks up. And there isn’t a retractable sunshade that has to be cranked into position every time someone wants to sit outside. Natural Light Patio Covers use Acrylite panels to filter out heat and U.V. while letting the light shine through, to create the perfect patio atmosphere. They can be attached to homes to cover decks and patios, or built as stand-alone covers detached entirely from the house.

They are permanent structures, engineered specifically for the Indianapolis climate to take the wind and snow without buckling or showing signs of wear. The see-through panels do not discolour or show any effect from U.V. rays. In short, they are the perfect way to ensure your backyard experience is ideal all spring, summer and fall for many years to come. “We can even build enclosures to create three-season rooms,” says Cory Clapper, the Indianapolis sale consultant of the covers. “People have all sorts of uses for this technology,” he says. “We can build almost any kind of structure to fit in with a backyard plan.” The Acrylite comes in two-foot wide panels that can be as long as 24 feet. Glazing bars between them provide structural support and can be formed into a single slope or cathedralstyle ceiling. “When you look up through the panels, they are a sky blue colour,” Clapper says. “It’s like you’re looking at the sky.” The aluminum structure itself comes in four colours and all Patio Covers include eaves troughs just like the roof of a house.

“The manufacturer guarantees the engineering of the panels, which are made in Germany, for 30 years not to fade or discolour, and has a 10 year warranty against hail damage,” Clapper says. “So, people can expect their covers to last 30 years or more. It’s a quality product.” The structures are not inexpensive, but Clapper uses an integrity pricing system that keeps costs as low as possible. He provides free estimates and plans to run several open houses in London this summer, inviting interested homeowners to tour houses where he has installed a Patio Cover already.“When people see them and feel how cool they are standing there in the bright sunlight, they are amazed,” he says. The company’s website features several options and configurations and as well as testimonials from happy customers who are already enjoying their Natural Light Patio Cover this summer.

Knock-down event a success

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com

With each pin knocked down, bowlers were raising money to help provide nutritional meals to Hamilton County philanthropy residents during the 13th Annual “Strike Out Hunger” Bowl-A-Thon at Coopers Stardust Bowl, 845 Westfield Rd., Noblesville. The Meals on Wheels of Hamilton County Executive Director Beth Gehlhausen said the event raised $12,000 – twice as much as last year’s bowl-a-thon. “That’s pretty good for this event,” she said. “We had better attendance this year.” Top bowlers were Rich Hamilton and JoEtta Sanich. Twenty-six teams participated in the event and Harbour Manner/The Lodge won with a top score of 2,568 and Sheridan Rehab came in second with a score of 2,399. “The two are almost rivals. The traveling trophy has gone back and forth for a couple of years,” Gehlhausen said. Proceeds from the event will benefit the Sponsor-A-Senior Program which provides financial assistance to those who otherwise would not be able to receive a nutritious meal. Meal service focuses on reducing hunger, improving health, and promoting independence in Hamilton County. “It’s essential we have events such as this to meet the needs of our community,” Gehlhausen said.

Gehlhausen said MOWHC provided 55,000 meals to 372 people in 2012. She said those numbers are on track for the first half of 2013 as approximately 27,000 meals have been provided to 183 people a month. Gehlhausen said 60 percent of MOWHC clients fully pay for their meals, which cost $6. Delivered by volunteers Monday through Friday, hot meals include a vegetable, fruit, starch, protein, desert and beverage. A second “sandwich meal” also is available. For more information on becoming a Meals on Wheels client or volunteering, call 776-7159 or visit www.mealsonwheelshc.org.

Ponzi schemer targeted retirees news@currentnoblesville.com

The Securities and Exchange Commission charged a Noblesville resident with running a $6 million Ponzi scheme that defrauded crime investors out of their retirement savings and used the money to invest in a bridal store, a bounty hunter reality television show, and a soul food restaurant owned by the bounty hunters. John Marcum, 49, is accused of deceiving at least 37 people into investing in promissory notes issued by his firm by promising doubledigit annual returns with no risk to principal by day-trading in stocks. On Aug. 26, the SEC stated it obtained an emergency court order to freeze the assets of Marcum and his firm, Guaranty Reserves Trust LLC. “Marcum tricked investors into putting their retirement nest eggs in his hands by portraying himself as a talented trader who could earn high returns while eliminating the risk of loss,” stated

Timothy Warren, acting director of the SEC’s Chicago regional office. “Marcum tried to carry on his charade of success even after he squandered nearly all of the funds from investors.” According to the SEC’s complaint filed in federal court in Indianapolis, Marcum began his scheme in 2010. The SEC alleges that Marcum assured investors he could safely grow their money through investments in widely-held publiclytraded stocks, and he promised annual returns between 10 percent and 20 percent. He also told a number of investors that their principal was “guaranteed” and would never be at risk. In the little trading he has done, Marcum has suffered losses amounting to more than $900,000. He spent nearly $1.4 million of investor money to finance several start-up companies. Marcum allegedly also used more than a half-million dollars to pay personal expenses accrued on credit card bills, including airline tickets, luxury car payments, hotel stays, sports and event tickets, and tabs at a Hollywood nightclub.

Family, congregation lose member who loved serving others

Gas grill safety tips

By Robert Herrington • robert@youarecurrent.com “He was 6-foot, 5-inches with a gift and passion for culinary. He applied it in a unique way to serve others and cover story wasn’t afraid to use his resources to serve others and lead others because of that. That would best describe my brother.” – Richard Gripp on his younger brother, Doug. Doug B. Gripp, 52, of Carmel was volunteering to prepare a men’s ministry barbecue on Aug. 26 at Grace Community Church, 5504 E. 146th St. Manning a grill that he had used countless times to cook large meals, tragedy struck as the grill exploded, killing Gripp in the process. “He was doing what he loved to do,” Richard Gripp said, speaking on behalf of the family. “Doug had a passion for culinary, not as a business but as a joy. He loved grilling, loved the making of all the things and applied that to his faith.” Gripp said his brother was a very strong family man who “let his walk match his talk.” He purchased large quantities of food then prepared meals for the homeless in Indianapolis. “He was serving others in need. He did this on a repeated basis,” he said. Doug had the idea of combining his passion for food and leadership with the church. What started with four men has now expanded to 30. “He opened up a whole new aspect of men’s ministry,” Gripp said. “Doug would say it’s not about the food – that was the bait – it was about leading others to give back.” Doug was owner and president of Gripp, Inc. of Westfield, a manufacturer’s representative for water-quality monitoring equipment, including sales and service, for more than 30 years. “He was a very successful businessman,” Gripp said. “He had an engineering mind. He really built a business with a very strong reputation.”

Gripp said his brother was detailed, thorough, and used best practices, even in the moments leading up to his death. “Before he lit the smoker he told everybody to get back and that saved everyone’s life,” Richard said. “There was no human error or mechanical error. There was nothing anybody could have done or not done. It was a very rare situation.” What happened? Noblesville Police Dept. spokesman Lt. Bruce Barnes said police officers and firefighters from Noblesville responded to the incident following the explosion at 5:15 p.m. Based on preliminary information, it is believed that the explosion originated from a propane grill that was being used to prepare food for the Men of Grace Barbeque at 6:30 p.m. Barnes said there were three to five people “in very close proximity” to the grill at the time of the explosion; however, no other injuries were reported. “It was large enough to be heard and felt by people in the immediate area,” he said. Church leaders were expecting about 400 people to show up to the event. Only volunteers were in a parking lot at the rear of the church at the time of the explosion. The grill was taken by investigators to a secure storage location. NFD Division Chief Rick

Doug B. Gripp, 52, of Carmel, died Aug. 26, 2013. Born March 5, 1961 in Clinton, Iowa, he was the son of Jack and Juanita (Borger) Gripp. Survivors include his wife, Judy (Schwarz) Gripp; daughters, Sophia and Isabel; mother, Juanita Gripp; brothers, Richard Gripp and Steve Gripp; sisters, Cheryl Six and Kim Gripp; nephews, Mark Douglas Zukunft, Chris Cobb and Bryan Gripp; and nieces, Rachel Gripp and Meaghan Six. He was preceded in death by his father. He was the president and owner of Gripp Inc. and was a 1984 graduate of Purdue University. He was a member of Grace Community Church and its Covenant Community, where he was a member of the Men of Grace Leadership Team. He was a passionate supporter Gripp of Circle City Relief in Indianapolis. Funeral services were held Aug. 31 at Grace Church and burial followed at Hamilton Memorial Park Cemetery in Westfield. Memorial contributions may be made to Grace Church. Online condolences may be left at www.randallroberts.com.

Russell said the department was working in conjunction with the Hamilton County Coroner’s Office to determine the cause of the explosion, which was not available at publication time. “We’ll look at the explanation we have and ask, ‘Does it match up to the injuries of the victim?,’” Russell said. Russell said the smoker was a 20-foot-long wood-burning grill with two 30-pound supplemental propane tanks. It also contained a burner that was heating oil to deep fry onion rings at the time of the blast. “It’s very typical for the size of operation,” he said of the custom built grill owned by Gripp. “He drove down to Texas to get this.” Russell said the NFD is using the same systematic approach with this incident as they would a fire investigation. “Identify where the explosion occurred. What burned? What was ignited? What was the ignition source that sparked the fire? Test your hypothesis – does this work? Could this ignite that?,” he explained. “We want to do our due diligence to make sure the family gets the answers they need and I think we can provide that to them.” Church copes with loss Grace officials described Gripp as “energetic and passionate” and a beloved volunteer. “His passion was cooking and providing food,” said Melody Boyer, pastor of connecting. “It was his ministry – using his tools and grills.” “He had a contagious passion and generous spirit,” Senior Pastor Dave Rodriguez stated. Since the tragic accident, church officials have worked to help congregation members cope with Gripp’s death. “I would say to our congregation: ‘This is a time to go to God. This is a time to take all of our fears and our pain and even our frustrations with God at this point and just take it to Him and

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission reports that about 30 people are injured each year as a result of gas-grill fires and explosions. The CPSC states that many of these fires and explosions occur when consumers first use a grill that has been left idle for a period of time or just after refilling and reattaching the grill’s gas container. To reduce the risk of fire or explosion, consumers should routinely perform the following safety checks: • Check the tubes that lead into the burner for any blockage from insects, spiders, or food grease. Use a pipe cleaner or wire to clear blockage and push it through to the main part of the burner. • Check grill hoses for cracking, brittleness, holes and leaks. Make sure there are no sharp bends in the hose or tubing. • Move gas hoses as far away as possible from hot surfaces and dripping hot grease. If you can’t move the hoses, install a heat shield to protect them. • Replace scratched or nicked connectors, which eventually can leak gas. • Check for gas leaks, following the manufacturer’s instructions, if you smell gas or when you reconnect the grill to the gas container. If you detect a leak, immediately turn off the gas and don’t attempt to light the grill until the leak is fixed. • Use the grill at least 10 feet away from your house or any building. • Do not attempt to repair the tank valve or the appliance yourself. See a gas dealer or a qualified appliance repair person.

speak to Him and let Him speak to us,’” Rodriguez said on Aug. 26. Officials said weekend church services focused on “Worship in the Midst of Tragedy” and provided an extended time of prayer, reflection and worship. Church officials declined to comment further, but Rodriguez stated this on the church’s website: “For many of us, the reality of this tragedy is still sinking in as our minds and spirits try to grapple with such an agonizing loss. Often, our initial responses come in the form of questions: “How could this happen?” “What do I do next?” “How can I help those who are hurting?” As a church family, we continue to call out to God for His comfort, mercy and presence to cover all those who have been deeply impacted by Doug Gripp’s death. We also ask God for continued strength for those who are extending arms of grace and compassion at this time.”

FROM THE BACKSHOP The future of mass transit here

Putting the rocks in Shamrocks It is our position that city of Westfield is to be congratulated for its’ ranking as one of America’s best small towns by Money magazine. The city, which has a population of 31,857, garnered a No. 18 ranking. Forever in the shadow of neighboring Carmel in the areas of education, entertainment, housing and prep athletics, Westfield has quietly created their own bright spotlight. Set to open in April 2014, the Grand Park Sports Complex will feature 31 soccer/multipurpose fields, 26 baseball diamonds, and over 10 miles of trails and pathways including a trailhead on the Monon Corridor. The Grand Park Sports Campus is anticipated to attract 650,000 visitors in its first year of operation and 1.5 million visitors in future years. The master development plan for the city outlines approximately 1,400 acres of land available for residential and commercial development including hospitality (hotel, restaurant and retail), mixed-use, life science and corporate office uses. The city’s education system and low crime rate also factored into the rankings. Will folks from Carmel migrate to the north? Only the shadow knows. Congratulations to the citizens of Westfield for putting the “rocks” in Shamrocks.

Lead thinking Commentary by Terry Anker It could be a weakness of mine, but every few years or so I indulge myself in some manner and sort of “leadership” training. Like many things, it strikes me that leadership is a talent that is nurtured rather than a skill that is mastered. To be sure, there is some redundancy in the messages – and there are a lot of gimmicks (all designed, innocently enough I think, to help us remember both the message and the author). Having now traversed a decade or two of this kind of education, one can begin to see the patterns. There are some who argue that to lead is to serve – imagine Mahatma Gandhi saying, “There go my people, I must hurry to catch up with them for I am their leader.” Others might argue that leadership must be strict and demanding from the top – imagine Nicco Machiavelli saying, “A leader ought to inspire fear in such a way that, if he does not win love, he avoids hatred.” Others still urge that leadership cannot be

taught (or learned) and only received as a genetic coincidence at birth – imagine Winston Churchill saying, “Some are born great, some achieve greatness and some have greatness thrust upon them.” While Sir Churchill was likely quoting another Englishman, William Shakespeare, the point is the same. Namely that leadership can be simply born if not pursued or demanded. I’m not sure which, if any or all, of these views is correct. If nothing else, this twice a decade renewal refreshes my commitment to thinking about leadership as a thing to be practiced rather than a proficiency added to be added to a resume. Doesn’t taking time to consider “leadership” as both an object and as an act remind us to consider how and to whom we choose to apply it?

We’ve heard all the arguments about why mass transit will save the republic by helping to protect the environment, ease traffic congestion and possibly speed commutes into and from downtown Indianapolis. If the proponents and creators of the plan were really honest, they would admit they forgot one other reason that protects an encompassing special-interest group: the unions, whose minions, in large measure, make the current IndyGo deficit-heavy system go. We laughed out loud when the system’s communications department floated a news release at us last week. It was headlined, “INDYGO SERVICE IMPACTS DUE TO LABOR DAY HOLIDAY AND SPECIAL EVENTS.” We just had to read it. While it did mention street closures for the just-concluded Labor Day Weekend, it also noted “a Sunday/ Holiday schedule in observance of Labor Day.” Allow us to translate: That means unless the union workers got triple-quadruple overtime – you know, the kind the rest of us saps don’t get – the service would have been decimated further. True, no one would flood buses from the northern suburbs on a holiday weekend, but the fact that these so-called government holidays hold many of us hostage is ludicrous. Face it: This is exactly what will happen if we allow government-run mass transit up in these parts. Travelers will be beholden to union rules. We may not prevail, but you can bet we’ll fight this every step of the way. ••• We stand corrected. We wrote in this space (Current, Aug. 20) that congressional staffers were exempt from Obamacare. The actual issue being discussed in Congress is that which pertains to how the funding will work. No additional funding, per se, just how staffers’ contribution, which is 72 percent, will be paid.

Disappointment leads to learning Commentary by Danielle Wilson

My husband, Doo, and I have been through the emotional ringer twice in the last week. Two of our children were trying out for humor school sports teams − the first time either has experienced an honestto-God tryout, where, gasp, they MAY NOT MAKE IT! Our freshman soccer hopeful has been playing since he was five, starting with rec leagues and then on to the sell-your-organs-to-afford travel circuit. He’s OK. Doo and I gave him a 50/50 chance, considering he was up against 40 other ninth-graders. The tryouts themselves were brutal– doubles for three days, with the selection coming at the end of the last practice. When we pulled into the parking lot, we could see the coaches settling down about a hundred teenagers, and delivering the standard “Thanks for your effort, we can’t take all of you, blah, blah, blah.” I felt sick. His best hope was that they could see his potential (he’s almost 6 feet tall), but even then, his odds were slim. I muttered one last Hail Mary, and then suddenly, it was happening. Boys began jumping up and running off to a distant huddle. Our son’s name was not called. I was in shock. Somewhere deep down I had harbored the notion that his making the team was a sure thing. How could this have happened? What was wrong with these coaches? Why did they hate my child? The tears came when Doo took him

into Yogurtz. All those years, all that work. Was it too late to transfer him to a smaller school? Crazy thoughts zoomed through my mind until I forced myself to get a grip. He’s only 14, for God’s sake. He’ll get over it. But would I? Our daughter’s volleyball tryouts started the following Tuesday. She’s only been playing for a year, so I wasn’t expecting much, but as she plowed her way through the four-day process, I became cautiously optimistic. After all, she only had to beat out five others. On Friday, Doo and I found ourselves once again in a parking lot. We fidgeted anxiously as individual girls emerged from the school’s double-doors. Some were crying, and we secretly cheered. Imagine that! Supposed adults celebrating when a poor little seventh-grader’s dream has just been crushed. Doo and I had been reduced to psycho parents. Finally, our daughter appeared. Stoic, then all smiles. But she too was a “no.” Jeeze-Louise! Who do I have to pay to get a kid on a stupid team? In my heart I know these setbacks are good learning experiences. But right now, I’m sad that they won’t have the unique opportunity to play for their schools. And I’m exhausted. Real tryouts are just too stressful. Peace out.

Divorce – What To Expect: Collaborative Law Collaborative divorce is a process by which couples work through issues of child custody, parenting time, division of financial assets and payment of marital bills and expenses through non-litigation techniques guided by specially-trained, experienced family law attorneys with the assistance, if necessary, of collaboratively trained professionals, such as child and financial specialists. The goals of collaborative practice are similar to litigation in that collaborative professionals consider the best interest of the children in custody and parenting time issues and the law in the division of assets and debts. However, collaborative professionals do not consider these issues in a vacuum, but rather in ways that also address the emotional and personal needs of the family that is being separated. Collaborative practice recognizes that the spouses are often forever linked – even if divorced- by children, grandchild, and long-time friends. The collaborative model is designed to assist divorcing spouses work through their disputes constructively and peacefully. This allows both parties to move forward as individuals with dignity and respect without the post-traumatic stress that often accompanies divorce. At the outset of the collaborative case, each party signs an contract to work to resolve all issues related to the divorce outside of the courtroom. Just as in divorce litigation, collaborative practice requires both parties to provide full disclosure of all relevant issues and facts involving the children, as well as a full disclosure of all financial assets and liabilities. Both parties exchange all information and documentation necessary to make informed decisions regarding custody, parenting time, and division of the marital estate. Moreover, each party is given the time necessary to process, evaluate, and apply the information to his/her individual circumstances.

Through collaboration and communication, parties are able to resolve their differences in such a way that is beneficial to both. Most often, this is done by participation in several planned conferences, with various professionals involved as needed. The agenda’s for each conference are predetermined and parties are prepared to address the issues for each conference. There is a Chinese proverb that is often used by collaborative professionals: “never cut what can be untied.” This is especially true in cases where married couples, especially those with children, know that divorce is inevitable, but do not wish to undergo the financial, personal, and emotional expense and stress of litigation. Dissolution is never a “winner-take-all” proposition. In fact, in most cases, there are no real winners, only losers. Protracted litigation takes a personal toll that may never be repaired. Litigation often results in emotional hurt, hard feelings, distrust and outright hatred, which negatively impact the ability of the parties to successfully co-parent their children. Collaborative dissolution is for anyone who doesn’t want to ruin his/her life by a divorce. Divorce is never a happy experience, but collaborative practice makes it as good as it can be. If you are interested in collaborative divorce, call any member of our collaborative team. We will be glad to answer any questions, and help you decide whether collaborative divorce is right for you! At Hollingsworth & Zivitz, P.C., our team has the experience, the understanding, and the compassion to assist with your family law needs.

Fun for all ages at Zionsville Fall Fest

By Mark Johnson • mark@youarecurrent.com

As the final days of summer draw to a close, the annual end of season checklist rears its unwelcome head: Most area schools festival are back in session. Check. Many families have returned from vacation. Check. People are making the most of the remaining days of warm weather. Check. However, residents of Zionsville have one more item on that checklist, and it is one of celebration and community spirit, the annual Fall Festival. The Zionsville Lions Club Fall Festival is a week-end long event featuring food, games, carnival rides, live entertainment, and vendors; not to mention an auction, dancing, and a kickoff parade. The theme of this year’s Fall Festival is “Rock around the Clock.” Since its inception, Fall Festival’s goal has been to raise money to maintain Lions Park, and it remains the Lions Club’s biggest fundraiser. Tim Reinhart, Lions Club president and Festival chair, explained both the need for financial resources and the significance of Lions Park. “The park is not supported by tax dollars. All of the revenue for the park comes from the Lions Club fundraisers,” he said. Attendance at the festival will be crucial to meeting fundraising goals. “We anticipate a crowd of about 25,000 over the three days,” Reinhart said. The three days will kick off on Sept. 6 with a VIP carnival for children and adults with special

trants. Carnival games, a kids’ area, live dance and band performances and an adult and teen party complete the day. Sept. 8 begins with the Spokes of Hope bike race and a community worship service, and ends with the Miss Outstanding Teen pageant. There will be an unlimited ride $15 wristband available. “This is typically ranked as the most fun event every year in Zionsville,” Reinhart said. “We cater to all ages. We like to have something for everyone, for the young children, for the teenagers, and the adults. It’s a great opportunity to experience the community of Zionsville.”

‘Pippin’ brings magic and mystery Karen Kennedy • karenk@youarecurrent.com

If you’ve never seen this show, haven’t seen it lately, or have only heard the catchy tunes from it, you may think of “Pippin” theater as a light-hearted show about a merry band of troubadors who show us the coming-of-age story of a young prince. The reality is that while the show is indeed chock-full of lively and memorable tunes, it actually explores a sharp contrast between good and evil, and the struggle that we all face daily to do the right thing and find our place in the world. Stephen Schwartz’ “Pippin” debuts at the Tarkington Theatre on Sept. 6, opening Civic Theatre’s season. The opening number in the show is “Magic to Do,” in which the audience is invited to take a journey along with a magical and mysterious troupe of players. The Leading Player tells the audience about Pippin, the son of a king, who is searching for meaning and significance in his life. Pippin then enters and tells of his search in the popular song “Corner of the Sky.” Pippin’s adventures take him through various loves, war, and even murder until he finally finds his own version of a happy ending. “The music is what really drives this show,” said musical director Brent Marty. “It has a pop feel and it really pulls the audience in.” Marty will conduct the thirteen-piece orchestra, which includes three keyboards. “Pippin has always been a favorite of mine—I just saw it on Broadway,” said Marty, who has been with Civic since 1998. “Pippin” is directed by Ryan Koharchik. He has been the resident scenic and lighting designer for Civic since 1996. Some of his most notable Civic productions include: “Evita,” “Aida,” “Into the Woods,” “The Will Rogers Follies” and “City of Angels.” “At the heart of this show is the choice between the darkness and the light,” said Koharchik. “We all have a good voice and a bad voice in our own heads, and only we can choose which voice we listen to. It’s an ‘everyman’ story.” In various productions of “Pippin” over the years, the role of The Leading Player has been portrayed by both men and women. Ben Vereen originated the character on Broadway, for which

he won a Tony. In Civic’s production, the role is played by Nathalie Cruz, who was last seen playing the Witch in “Into the Woods” on the Booth Tarkington stage. “I wanted to cast a woman in the role,” said Koharchik, “because I wanted Pippin’s love interest, Catherine, to represent the voice of goodness and The Leading Player to represent the voice of darkness.” The role of Pippin is played by Ethan Litt, a former Ball State student who is making his Civic debut. He is from Indianapolis, IN and recently graduated from Ball State University with a BFA in musical theatre. “Ethan brings an instant likability to the character. He was the perfect choice,” said Koharchik. Of the journey that the show takes, Koharchik said, “I want the audience to constantly wonder, ‘what’s happening next?’ The show is full of surprises. It explores different time periods, including a 3-D ‘trip’ through the 70’s. But I wanted to make it relevant to today as well, so we’re using video as well.”

Recovery moving in right direction Commentary by Jim Litten

With 2,457 sales in July in Central Indiana, overall year-to-date home sales are up 19.4 percent compared to this time last year, according to statistics compiled by F.C. real estate Tucker Co. On a monthly basis, July 2013 home sales fell 0.3 percent compared to July 2012, a slight decrease of seven homes sold in the nine counties that F.C. Tucker tracks. Four counties reported increased sales compared to July 2012. Specifically in Hamilton County, home sales for the first seven months of 2013 rose 22.3 percent compared to the same time last year. Year to date, Hamilton County home sales soared to 4,280 – an increase of 781 homes from the same time last year. The rise in home sales in Westfield, specifically, isn’t surprising when you consider that it ranked 18th in the nation on CNN Money’s “Best Places to Live” list. Affordable housing, as well as low crime and downtown development, are among the factors that contributed to Westfield’s ranking on the list. Westfield experienced an increase in home sales. In July 2013, 78 homes pended – up eight

homes compared to July 2012. Home prices are up in Westfield. In July 2013, the average home cost $236,661 – an increase of $15,810 from July 2012. Of the home sales in Westfield last month, one was priced $1,000,000 to $1,999,999; five were priced $500,000 to $999,999; 17 were priced $300,000 to $499,999; 18 were priced $200,000 to $299,999; 36 were priced $100,000 to $199,999; and one was priced at $99,999 or less. Inventory continues to tighten. In July 2013, 257 homes were available for sale in Westfield. In July 2012, 317 homes were on the market. It’s common for home sales to slow a bit as we move into the second half of the year. Even though sales in some areas pulled back slightly in July, the average home price continued to climb. With competitive prices and shrinking inventory, we believe our housing recovery will continue to move in the right direction. Jim Litten is the president of F.C. Tucker Company.

YOUR WEDDING ‘DO Are you are agonizing over how to wear your hair on your big day? It is one of the most important days of your life, and it is vital to look and feel your best! Deciding on the perfect hairstyle requires some thought, so consider these tips when finalizing your ‘do plan. 1. Talk to your stylist. Several months before your big day, get professional tips on what to do to get (and keep) your hair in the best shape possible. If you are thinking about a drastic change in hair color or style, it is best to try it out many months before your wedding day. 2. Plan early.

begin the process immediately. It takes short hair many months to reach shoulder length or longer, which is ideal for many up-do styles. 3. Consider your dress style. During the consultation with your stylist, make sure they understand the neckline and style of your dress. This will help decide which style might be best for you. Bring in a picture of your dress if you have one available. With careful consideration and open dialogue with a professional stylist, you will ensure that the end result will be one you love! You will gain joy looking back over your wedding photos for years to come.

Master bath remodel: Updating 1990s materials

Commentary by Larry Greene

EXISTING MASTER BATH: Built in 1999, this home located in the Lynnwood at Plum Creek neighborhood in Carmel blueprint for does not improvement look its age. However, as the second owners, these homeowners knew they would remodel the master bathroom. “When we bought, we loved the house and the location,” stated one of the homeowners. “However, the master bath was very pink and dated, so we planned to change it right from the start.” DESIGN PROCESS: “The original bathroom was done with builder grade materials,” said one of the owners. “The tub was bigger than the shower, and was not a good use of space.
