Lake resort at Strawtown gets approval from county By Sadie Hunter • sadie@youarecurrent.com Hamilton County’s Strawtown area in north Noblesville soon will be home to a new lake resort next to Strawtown DEVELOPMENT Koteewi Park. On Dec. 10, the Hamilton County Commissioners approved the ordinance that would rezone the land appropriately for the 55-acre development that will have camping, walking trails, a new, 20-acre lake, an event center and more at 23003 Ind. 37 N. and 22836 Essig Ave. in White River Township. Just across Essig Avenue is Strawtown Koteewi Park’s archery range, treetop suspension climbing, winter sledding hill and horse barn. Strawtown Property Management is the owner and developer of the project. The team is made up of Bruce Oldham, a 14-year employee of the Hamilton County Parks Dept., and Sean Cannon of Strawtown Property Management. “Outdoor recreation and getting people into nature is a passion of mine,” Oldham said. “I saw a need to bring a different population of users out to the park and out to nature in general. Ultimately, our goal is to get families out experiencing nature together. As I was growing up, everyone had grandparents or an aunt and uncle who owned a farm. We all went and spent time there and we got to have those experiences, and unfortunately now, in today’s society, most grandparents are living in a condo. So, those opportunities for us as adults and parents are really limited, to be able to experience that time outdoors with our kids. “The park is such a gem already, and there are so many different kinds of opportunities there. We wanted to offer a different type of accommodation.” Water recreational activities like paddle boarding, canoeing, fishing and more will be allowed, but the developers will not allow motorized boats or watercraft on the lake, a 4-acre portion of which will be constructed in the first phase of development. “We want to start offering rental opportunities prior to completion of (the entire development),” Oldham said. “We’ll basically split the property and be open on the recreational side of

things while the rest of the lake is being built.” The development also will feature a campstore, which will sell “basic sundries and convenience items,” according to the ordinance, and also will house a small office and restrooms. An event space will accommodate 200 to 300 people with indoor and outdoor seating. The event center will be used for corporate and personal events like weddings, seminars, family reunions, etc. Oldham said he hopes the first phase of the project will be finished by December 2019 with ground being broken before the end of this year. The first phase is set to include eight rental units, a road and walking trail system, a campground area, a 4-acre lake, the campstore, well and septic and installation of native landscaping and prairie plantings for open space. “Phase 1 will essentially consist of all the infrastructure: office building, roads, an initial set of eight primary structures/rental units and additional secondary units,” Oldham said. “From now until spring is going to be a whirlwind, and we’re going to try to get as much done as we possibly can to hopefully be able to open some doors midseason.” During the next 10 years, the development plan includes linking the 4-acre lake and a 16-acre lake to form a 20-acre lake; expanding the gravel road system; adding eight to 25 rental cabins; construction of the event space; and adding a food and beverage service at the campstore.

DNR reminds residents of coyote winter activity— Because winter can be a busy time for coyotes, DNR biologists say people can expect to see more of them in the coming months. Coyotes are common to Indiana, including areas where people gather, including urban areas. They help to control rodent populations and cleaning up dead animals; their primary diet consists of rodents and rabbits, but they will eat almost anything. Keep garbage secure, make sure pet food is not left outside, and make sure fruit from trees is picked up. Learn more about coyotes at wildlife.IN.gov/5688.htm

The Hamilton County Commissioners are seeking help from the Indiana State Police following claims INVESTIGATION made by a discharged employee. A lawsuit filed by Susan Byer Nov. 14 states that Byer, a deputy treasurer and bankruptcy lender clerk in the Hamilton County Treasurer’s Office, was terminated March 27 for alleged insubordination, failure to comply with Hamilton County employee expectations and other reasons. The lawsuit states Byer believes she was terminated because she confronted Chief Deputy Treasurer Kim Good about violating an office policy forbidding Hamilton County Treasurer’s Office employees from posting late tax payments as on time. Byer then informed the Hamilton County Human Resources Office that she wanted to file a formal grievance against Good and the elected county treasurer, Jennifer Templeton. From July 12, 2017 to Byer’s March 27 termination, Byer received three disciplinary notice letters. One of the letters stated Byer glared at and projected negative body language toward Good. Another letter stated Byer looked at her cellphone, which is a violation of office policy. The lawsuit states Byer believes she was terminated because she knew Hamilton County Treasurer’s Office employees were allegedly posting late tax payments as on time for their family members. Byer is seeking damages of $700,000 from the defendants for each cause of action. The commissioners asked the state police to independently investigate the claims, and it is unknown if the state police will take on the case. “While the county does not believe there is a factual basis for these charges, we feel it is our duty to ask an impartial party to investigate the claims,” County Commissioner Mark Heirbrandt Heirbrandt stated. “That’s why we have asked the Indiana State Police instead of the Hamilton County Sheriff’s Office for help. We owe it to the taxpayers to investigate the claims and to assure them that their tax dollars are being managed properly.”

Kristen Boice said in addition to suffering grief from the loss of a loved one, depression and anxiety during the holiday season are common and on the rise. Boice is a psychotherapist and the owner of Pathways to Healing Counseling in Noblesville. “Depression and anxiety are kind of on the increase in general so typically during the holidays, Boice we will see an influx of people struggling just to get up in the morning and find the joy in the day,” Boice said. “Grief looks different for different people. It doesn’t necessarily have to be the loss of a person. It can be the loss of a relationship, maybe a divorce, maybe your kids got married and aren’t able to come home for the holidays. We call that ambiguous loss.” Boice said there are several tactical, real-life tips her office recommends for someone struggling with loss this time of year: Honor them: “Start a new tradition. Plant a tree. Though this isn’t really the season to plant a tree, you might instead buy a plant in their honor. Make a donation to a charity in their name.” Give back: “Sometimes getting out and giving this time of year can be helpful. Volunteer at a soup kitchen. Ring the bell for Salvation Army. Helping somebody else who’s struggling can also be very therapeutic to connect with other people in pain.” Find joy in something: “It’s hard to find something you enjoy when you’re going through grief. Sometimes it could look like something like painting or joining a painting class, picking up your favorite novel and reading it, etc.” Get or interact with a pet: “Pets are great at helping people heal through grief. That’s why therapy dogs are used so much, because a pet helps someone connect and feel safe to share all of their emotions. The pet doesn’t judge, but rather just accepts it. On the physical side, an animal that you can pet is very helpful because that regulates your nervous system and calms you down. Write it down: “Journaling, writing out how you feel and just getting it out instead of holding it in also can be helpful.” Find supportive people: “It might be a grief group. If you Google ‘grief groups,’ they’re all over the place. These groups are extremely helpful, especially with loss, because there are other people going through that grief and loss that can support you and can understand what you’re going through.” Movement: “Getting up and doing some movement, whether it’s walking a pet or taking a walk outside for five minutes, is important. We know that your health can get impacted if you’re not moving through the grief. You can start getting physical symptoms.”

ESSAY A fair shake
LETTER Cartoon not funny
Commentary by Terry Anker With the end of another excessive meal, we retired to the hotel’s quiet lobby bar to relax with a nightcap before ending the day. This having been our evening ritual for the several evenings of our visit, the amiable server knew well our preferred libation and even our names. But on this, our last night in town, we asked the young man to tell us a bit about himself. Surprised by our genuine interest, he responded in earnest, “I miss my family.” It seems that this kid was reared in the northern-most part of India while his interest in finding decent work brought him here, to the tip of the subcontinent of India. He wasn’t complaining, really. He worked long hours, but the job was pleasant enough and the firm, an international hospitality group, compensated him far above the local level for his academic achievement. As the more cheerful countenance we’d come to know returned to his face, he shared that his employer is still hoping to expand in a way that would take him back north. While they’d been discussing it since his start more than five years earlier, he believed that this would be the year. Home was five hours by airplane, but such transport is financially out-of-reach. A train, in coach, is 40 hours and affordable – if all goes well – but he hasn’t been able to get the time from work to make the roundtrip. A few days later, while sitting in an airport lounge awaiting our own connection home, we lamented the inconvenience of it all. Why couldn’t we get a direct flight? Why is airplane food so terrible? Why couldn’t we just be home already? With wealth (and power), we come to believe that the world should treat us differently. Don’t we forget too quickly that it already does? Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC. You may email him at terry@youarecurrent.com.
Editor, Please tell Tim Campbell that his “The Kiddie Table” cartoon (published in the Nov. 20) is NOT funny AT ALL! Sick of the leftist BS. Have some respect! Lauren Perkins, Fishers
Cartoon rings true Editor, Please tell Tim Campbell that his “The Kiddie Table” cartoon (published Nov. 20) was Hilarious, and oh so true! Every time I hear Trump’s name-calling (Pocahontas, Little Rocket Man, Crying Chuck, Crazy Bernie) I think, so childish. If he wants respect, he needs to show respect to others. Jayne Vaughn, Fishers
Planning for spontaneity Commentary by Danielle Wilson I am not a spontaneous person. I’m a planner, a list-maker, a masterful orchestrator of to-do lists. So, when a HUMOR friend texted that he had tickets to the IU-Louisville game, I politely but immediately turned him down. I had a mountain of tasks on my Saturday plate and I couldn’t possibly take four to six hours to attend a sporting event that could be playing on the TV while I graded papers/ put up a Christmas tree/started holiday shopping/cleaned the house/did laundry/ dominated in six games of Words. I am also a penny-pincher who can’t pass up a good deal and am married to Mr. Impulsive, so when the next two lines of text came through – Free! and Parking pass! – Doo was easily able to convince me to smash that chore plate against our stillunstockinged hearth. Road trip! Eight hours of fun later, we returned, with me in a snit. I was exhausted, my team
had lost (go Cards!) and, most concerning, very few things were crossed off that list. Before I gave Doo reason to call a marriage counselor, I went straight to bed. My anxiety levels had beautifully crafted “It’s your fault” comments brewing way too close to the surface. Feeling more positive the next morning, I decided to take my own advice. Students could wait on their essays, the floors could remain covered in a snow-ice-salt layer of filth, and the 12-foot mother of a Frasier fir could be erected later. Life happens when it happens, and I don’t want to miss it because of a stupid, irrational idea that I can control the universe. Note to self: Add “Be Spontaneous” to list. Peace out.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK “My idea of Christmas, whether old fashioned or modern, is very simple: loving others.”
— Bob Hope
What are you thinking? Editor, What in the world was Tim Campbell thinking when he drew the cartoon with a picture of the Statue of Liberty and the caption, “Hello, France, I want to come back”? He must be out of his mind to think life would be better in France than here in the United States. Does he want to trade the freedom of our nation for socialism? There are many of your readers who are conservatives. The policies of the so-called “progressives” will lead us to the disasters that have been the ruin of every nation that has adopted socialism.

Discourage smoking for Hoosiers Commentary by Dennis Murphy

Too many Hoosier babies die before their first birthday. The toll is tragic. Indiana’s infant mortality rate of 7.5 infant deaths for every 1,000 live births equated POLICY to the deaths of 623 babies in 2016. And African-American infants face worse odds, dying at a rate twice that of white infants. Only five states have higher rates of infant mortality than Indiana. Although the past two state administrations have declared infant mortality a priority to fight, the death rate remains grimly high. As the state’s largest comprehensive health care provider and a leader in medical education, Indiana University Health finds this infant death rate unacceptable — particularly when we know how to blunt a main cause. One of the most effective and fastest ways to combat infant mortality is to use public policy to discourage smoking. While we typically link smoking with heart disease, cancer and other health ills, smoking also is a significant contributor to premature birth, birth defects and infant death.
In a 2015 study, researchers found that increases in cigarette taxes and prices are associated with lower infant mortality rates, especially for African-American infants. For every $1 increase in the per-pack price of cigarettes, overall infant deaths in Indiana would decrease by 0.19 per 1,000 – or 16 babies. The authors concluded that “policymakers may consider increases in cigarette taxes as a primary prevention strategy for infant mortality.” Indiana has not raised its tobacco tax in more than 11 years. Our tax rate is lower than in all our neighboring states and among the lowest in the nation -- 36th out of 50 states. Tobacco taxes in neighboring Illinois and Michigan are nearly double Indiana’s. I call on our governor and other state leaders: Let’s work together in the 2019 legislative session to decrease the infant mortality rate by increasing the tobacco tax.

Palladium’s New Year’s Eve Extravaganza includes Martinie’s Boogie Trio By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Ross Martinie Eiler loves that old, oldtime rock and roll. He’ll share that love with New Year’s Eve partygoers at the CELEBRATION Palladium. “Folks hanging out with us will be bopping along with the high-energy dance music of the 1950s,” Martinie Eiler said of his band, Martinie’s Boogie Trio. “We do originals as well, but we love doing our own takes on the acoustic roots of rock and roll and soul music. We do a lot of early rhythm and blues. We do jump blues from people like Louis Jordan. We do music from soul folks like Ray Charles. We do a lot of great rock and rollers like Little Richard, Jerry Lee Lewis and anything that’s got a piano and makes people jump up and down, we take a stab at. That’s kind of our mojo.” The New Year’s Eve Extravaganza begins at 9 p.m., and lasts until 1 a.m. Martinie’s Boogie Three will appear in the Founders Room. Living Proof will perform on the Palladium stage. Other entertainment includes Scott Routenberg Jazz Trio, Shiel Sexton Songbook Lounge; DJ Futon John, Robert Adam Room; and A Touch of Grass, South Lobby. “It sounds like a super-fun party and we’re glad to be a part of it,” Martinie Eiler said. Piano player Martinie Eiler and his fellow bandmates, Joe Donnelly, saxophone, and John Valdez, drums, have been playing together for three years. “We enjoy spending time together,” Martinie Eiler said. “It’s been a wonderful experience in that way.” The band released its first album in August. “We played a Peanut Butter and Jam program for kids at the Palladium and I think people thought what is good for the kids is good for the grown-ups,” Martinie Eiler said. “We’re delighted to come up to Hamilton County. We mostly stay in southern Indiana, Bloomington or Brown

County.” On average, Martinie Eiler said the trio plays twice a month. “Just enough to keep our chops up and keep it rolling,” he said. Top cover band Living Proof has a reputation of being one of the top cover bands in central Indiana. Julianne Hess is one of Living Proof’s eight band members. The band has a horn section and six lead vocalists. “We have played every New Year’s Eve for more than 15 years, including events such as NYE weddings to downtown Indy countdowns,” Hess said. “We look forward to playing at the Palladium, the most breathtaking venue in central Indiana.” Hess, who lives in Pendleton, said the members all live in central Indiana. “We play a variety of dance music, covering hits from yesterday and today,” Hess said. “Some of our greatest musical influences are Earth, Wind & Fire, Justin Timberlake, The Jackson 5 and Bruno Mars. We always provide a non-stop party experience to keep guests dancing all night long.” Living Proof formed in 2002. Hess said it has grown in popularity every year since.
“Although most members have changed since the band first began, the spirit of the group remains unchanged with the same musical influences and collective vision to provide a positive musical experience for audiences of all ages,” Hess said. “With so many vocalists on stage, it allows us to sing a wide variety of music that plays to each of our vocal strengths. We also have some of the tightest harmony and group vocal arrangements around.”

Sadie Hunter Current in Noblesville editor I’m sharing this recipe knowing full well that the cooking bug must have died with my grandmothers. In fact, the recipes my family members have enjoyed most through the years aren’t written on a recipe card anywhere, they’re just made from memory and only a few have survived. I’m no cook. I have one cookbook – Julia Child’s “Mastering the Art of French Cooking, Vol. 1.” I got it at a garage sale for $2, and it has never been opened. So, when I knew each of the editors of Current were to submit a family recipe, I went scrambling to my mother. This is one my mom was given by my second-grade, and arguably favorite, teacher, Karen Thomas. At my family’s holiday gettogethers, there often isn’t a traditional, sitdown meal. Especially at Christmas, everyone just brings an appetizer or dessert, and we pop in and out of the kitchen between board games and presents. I do not recommend for those with blood glucose issues because every single ingredient has sugar. Karen Thomas’ Slush Punch Ingredients: • 2 cups sugar • 1 can pineapple juice • 2 small packs of gelatin (apricot, peach or lime is recommended, but you can use any flavor. Mrs. Thomas’ type-written recipe says not to mix flavors) • 2 bottles of ginger ale (quart or liter size) Directions: Dissolve sugar and gelatin in hot water until everything is dissolved. Put the mixture in a plastic container and freeze. Remove from the freezer 4-5 hours before serving, breaking the ice block into “slush” consistency. Add the two bottles of ginger ale. Stir and serve.

Ann Marie Shambaugh Current in Carmel editor Buckeyes have been a necessity at Christmastime in my family for as long as I can remember. I look forward to enjoying the perfect pairing of creamy peanut butter and chilled chocolate almost as much as spending time together as a family opening gifts Christmas morning. Also a family tradition: My mom hiding or disguising the buckeyes so that my dad won’t get into them before Dec. 25. Buckeyes Ingredients: • 1 1/2 cups peanut butter • 1 1/2 cups confectioners sugar • 1 tablespoon butter, softened • 1 package semi-sweet chocolate chips Directions: Mix peanut butter, confectioners sugar and butter. Let chill in refrigerator, then form into 1-inch balls. Melt chocolate chips in microwave or double boiler. Dip peanut butter balls in the chocolate, remove with a toothpick and place on foil to cool. They can be placed in the refrigerator or freezer to speed up the process.

ICS to perform at Palladium By Mark Johnson editorial@youarecurrent.com Ask Eric Stark what he enjoys most about the holiday season, and he does not hesitate with his response. “One of the best things about CHOIR this time of year is getting to work with 200 singers, a group of wonderful people who care about the community,” Stark said. “It is a joy to make music with them.” For Stark, the artistic director and conductor of the Indianapolis Symphonic Choir, the holiday season is a time when music plays a key role. “At this time of year, there is literally wallto-wall music,” Stark said. “It’s the sound of a chorus, the sound of a choir, it’s what helps to make this time of year special.” Stark and the Indianapolis Symphonic Choir will celebrate the Yuletide season with the presentation of “Festival of Carols” for four shows at the Palladium at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel. The performances are 8 p.m. Dec. 21, 2 and 7 p.m. Dec. 22 and 3 p.m. Dec. 23. In addition to a 17-year leadership role
with the ISC, Stark also is an associate professor of music at the Butler University Jordan College of Fine Arts. Throughout his tenure as conductor, he has come to appreciate the power of music, particularly during the Christmas season. “It is an immense privilege when I get to experience the music from both sides, from the audience and from our singers,” he said. “It’s very exciting to feel that energy from the audience during the uptempo numbers and the quiet that falls over the audience during the slower songs. It’s an experience that cuts across all generations, especially this time of year. It’s a very special connection for all of us.” Stark said he hopes audiences will connect through the common appreciation and joy of music. “Even though we have differences, it’s what we share in common that is important. In our choir, we have the entire spectrum of people. But when we join together with our voices, we forget our differences,” he said. “We make beautiful things happen when we focus on the things that unite us.” For tickets, visit indychoir.org or call 317-940-9057.
Gift bottles for red drinkers Commentary by Elizabeth Morse December brings with it a host of special holiday events. From neighborhood open houses and office parWINEderlust ties to New Year’s Eve, it’s best to have a little something in hand for your host. The three red wines I’m recommending are all bottles I’d be happy to receive. Starting at well under $20, there is an appropriate selection for any occasion. A fun little Italian wine, Olianas 2017 Cannonau di Sardegna DOC, comes in at $13ish and isn’t one you’ll find everywhere. I always enjoy a wine that’s a bit obscure because it implies that the giver has put a bit more effort into selecting it. This one isn’t going to be in the 15-case display inside your wine shop. It will impress with rich, bold flavors like chocolate, fragrant tobacco and hints of myrtle berries (menthol). A big mouthful of silky red wine. For a fancy affair, seek out 2015 Franky Family Vineyards Napa Valley Cabernet Sauvignon. With 86 percent Cab juice and
about 10 percent Merlot, this beauty smells like black currants and strong coffee. It’s got a solid tannic structure but the tannins themselves are subtle and feminine. In the mouth, you’ll get flavors of bramble fruit, ripe black cherries and cocoa with a gorgeous spicy finish that won’t quit ($55). My most recent wine crush (pardon the pun) is another California wine from St. Helena in Napa Valley. 2015 Ehlers Estate Cabernet Franc makes a statement. What it says is, “I’m a very structured and concentrated wine, with firm tannins.” Each sip grips you with dark berries, tarragon, chervil and scads of chocolate and leather. This lovely is a big mouthful that stands up nicely to heavier holiday fare ($65). Worth. Every. Penny. Elizabeth Morse owned the Corner Wine Bar in Broad Ripple for close to 20 years. She is a graduate of IU, is a Hoosier chef, food writer, wine guru and Hamilton County Master Gardener who believes in supporting all things local.

Blueprint for Improvement: Basement finish in west Carmel Commentary by Larry Greene
Before
Background Info: This home, built in 2015, is in the Woods of Lion Creek neighborhood in Carmel. The homeowners had just purchased it with the intent to make a few updates in order to make it their forever home.
BEFORE PROBLEMS The main level did not have a fireplace, so one of the homeowners’ top priorities was to add one to their living room. Also, the original basement was large, but it was unfinished, so another priority was to finish the basement to add more functional living space to the home.
After
AFTER SOLUTIONS The goal was to take this newly purchased home and finish it in order to create the homeowners’ dream home. 1. The largest portion of the project was finishing the basement, which included adding a bedroom, full bathroom, fireplace, wet bar, entertainment area and home gym to the space. 2. The basement bar became the focal point of the new basement with a mosaic tile backsplash that extended to the ceiling, new cabinetry and countertops, with an island for seating. 3. Another focal point of the basement was the fieldstone fireplace that was added to the entertainment area. 4. Additionally, a large gas fireplace was added to the first floor of the home and was finished from floor to ceiling with a white quartzite wall tile and a live-edge wood mantel.

Fitting holly into Christmas Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt At some point in “How the Grinch Stole Christmas!” the Grinch is scheming aloud to his dog, Max, when he asks, “Are you having a holly, jolly GRAMMAR GUY Christmas?” Even for a guy whose heart’s an empty hole, the Grinch’s question has been bothering me this holiday season. While we’re on the topic, I have to point out that the song, “You’re a Mean One, Mr. Grinch” was famously sung by Thurl Ravenscroft, who has one of the most perfect names ever named. Ravenscroft also was the voice of Tony the Tiger. Back to my lyrical problem: Can you have a “holly, jolly” Christmas? I understand “jolly.” Jolly is an adjective that means happy and jovial. When I hear the word “jolly,” I picture Santa laughing and his belly bouncing like a bowlful of jelly. I think because of the famous line in “‘Twas the Night Before Christmas,” the word jolly, when used to describe a person, can come along with overweight connotations. Whether we think about it or not, the words used in our holiday songs, poems and movies build their own unique associations
related to the Christmas season. Holly is always a noun. Holly is either a proper name (Holly Golightly, Holly Hobbie, et. al.) or a shrub. The holly plant’s red berries can make your belly particularly un-jolly if ingested in high enough doses. But “holly” isn’t an adjective. A wreath is often made from holly, but holly is still a noun. You can’t have a “holly” Christmas. It’s almost as if song lyrics don’t pass through a grammar editor before they’re allowed to be recorded. But that’s the strange thing that happens with language when it’s part of a culture — it evolves. It moves. Meanings shift and words that just happen to rhyme end up next to each other in a Christmas song. But, at the end of the day, even though it’s technically not a grammatically correct phrase, we all know what it means to have a “holly, jolly” Christmas. It means to celebrate with people you love, share warmth and happiness, and maybe even kick back a few glasses of eggnog with Uncle Rick.
