Aspiring Eagle Scout builds swing for the Monon

For nearly eight months, Westfield High School freshman Andrew Bredensteiner and his father, Jeff, planned to build a covered memorial swing. The swing was the project Bredensteiner had selected as his service project to attain Eagle Scout level, and they planned to build it on the Monon trail in Westfield. That plan was tragically shattered when Jeff suddenly and unexpectedly died on Feb. 5 at the age of 46. Although still coping with the loss of his father, Bredensteiner has completed the construction of the covered swing after a year of planning and work. He will dedicate the swing in his father’s memory. “Without my scout leaders, Jim Hester and Kevin Mershimer, I would have never been able to do this. They filled in where my dad left off,” Bredensteiner said. The scouts of Westfield Troop 107, his grandfather, Roy Bredensteiner, family friend Larry Harshen, and great uncle, David Hulen Breden-
steiners, also assisted him. “Raising all of the money took the longest time,” he said. Money was contributed by family and friends, Herman & Kittle Properties, and two apartment complexes near the swing’s location – Spring Mill Commons and Casey Acres. Bredensteiner worked with the City of Westfield Parks and Recreation Department to choose the location and design of the swing. He made some modifications to the construction plans provided, resulting in a larger, sturdier swing. “The plans were really rough, and Bredensteiner has rewritten the plans for the next scout who comes along,” said Bredensteiner’s mother, Tara Bredensteiner. Bredensteiner originally chose the covered swing project because he wanted to create a lasting monument that could be enjoyed by the community long-term. He passed on other options such as trimming or mulching portions of the Monon, which surely would fade away as autumn approached. As fate would have it, Bredensteiner’s lasting monument will now serve to commemorate the 14 years he was able to spend with his father.

Follow-up to Harper Lee’s ‘To Kill A Mockingbird’ draws locals By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com
There are some books that people wait decades to read. Harper Lee’s sequel new release to “To Kill A Mockingbird” is one of them. “Go Set A Watchman” was released July 14 across America. The long awaited sequel caused Barnes and Noble stores nationwide to participated in a day-long, marathon reading of “To Kill A Mockingbird” inside the store, and Barnes and Noble on the Westfield/Carmel border was no exception. Teachers and students from Westfield Washington Schools participated in the reading, with one of the main players being Joel Bruns, media specialist at Westfield High School. “We thought it would be fun to get involved,” Bruns said. “If people come in and purchase items from this Barnes and Noble, it benefits the (WHS) library.” The readings began at 9 a.m. and ended around 8 p.m. The almost 12-hour marathon

consisted of readers switching off every 30 minutes to continue where the previous reader left off. Teachers, staff and students got involved in the event. Many readers and listeners ate lunch at the store’s café, most of them not leaving the store until the book had been completely read. “It’s a real cool thing,” Bruns said. “We’re basically locking ourselves in here until we get through the book entirely, which will take about 10 to 12 hours.” “Go Set A Watchman” is now available for purchase in stores and online.
Golf outing to help pets
By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com On July 31, Meyer Najem’s 8th annual Swing into Giving Golf Charity will take place at the Eagle Creek golf course. Currently, 296 players fundraiser are participating to raise money for the Humane Society for Hamilton County. Jennifer Arvin, director of marketing for Meyer Najem, said they hope to bring in more than $40,000. “We’ve never done an animal-based not-forprofit for our fundraiser before, so this year we thought we would be different,” she said. “A lot of people in the philanthropy group are animal lovers.” Fishers Mayor Scott Fadness will be one of the honorary chairs at the event. The other honorary chair? A dog named Gracie from the Humane Society. Gracie was hit by a car, and when the previous owners didn’t take action, she became paralyzed in her back legs. She uses a cart to get around, and a video will be shown about her life. “As a year-round supporter of the Humane Society for Hamilton County, this was our chance to give back to a group that does so

Summer Stock Stage Local Summer Stack Stage students were outstanding in “The 25th Annual Putnam Country Spelling Bee” musical … “Where’s Amy” loved meeting and watching local talented students shine in their soldout performances at the Ayres Auditorium at Park Tudor. These students come from all over Central Indiana to be a part of Summer Stock Stage. Yep, Broadway lights await these amazing gifted students.(Photos by Amy Pauszek)
“Where’s Amy?” caught a quick chat with Summer Stock Stage director Charles Goad and producer Emily Ristine Holloway before the opening night performance of “The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee,” – The local talent was exceptional and the cast shined! Hats off to all of the cast and crew members – and yes, the show ended with a much deserved standing ovation!
Taking a few minutes to breathe and allow their opening night standing ovation to sink in. From left, Kathleen Muloma, Carmel; Katie Sinicki, Westfield; along with John Collins and Weston LeCrone, Zionsville.
“Where’s Amy?” loves to promote the arts and had a blast at the Summer Stock Stage production of “The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee” performed at the Park Tudor campus. Summer Stock Stage provides theater experiences for teenage students in Central Indiana. Students focus on vocal work, dramatic and dance performance, sharing their creative talents in a professionally managed and positive environment. The Summer Stock Stage draws students, staff and audience members from a variety of backgrounds. Each season there are eight to 10 main stage performances reaching over 3,500 theatergoers. In addition to main stage productions, Summer Stock Stage offers Summer Stock Academy camps and workshops throughout the school year. I spotted amazing talent from our very own Current ZIP codes. I loved watching students perform from Carmel, Westfield, Zionsville and Fishers belting out tunes on their way to win the 25th Annual County Spelling Bee. “Where’s Amy?” enjoyed learning about the Summer Stock Stage through my friends director Chuck Goad and producer Emily Ristine Holloway.

Westfield family develops a waystation to help promote monarch butterflies By Anna Skinner • anna@youarecurrent.com Summer is a time for lots of fun activities, like catching butterflies. Yet most citizens don’t realize the endangered monarch butterfly cover story is joining the ranks of other species. One Westfield family took matters into its hands, born of the idea of Amelia Stone, 10, Daniel Holbrook, 8, Haylee Holbrook, 7, and Jacob Marshall, 2. “The monarchs are unique to America, they’re an American butterfly, and their populations have dwindled dramatically the last few years,” said Rose Green, grandmother of the children. “Naturally growing places where they have to stop, like milkweed, are being sprayed by pesticides of farmers or destroyed by development.” And since the beautiful orange-and-black harmless butterfly is an insect, pesticides take care of it, too. But pesticides aren’t the only things hurting the butterflies. Massive developments taking place in cities are clearing out the butterflies’ natural habitat. Green said that the butterflies fly 1,500 miles south to Mexico every autumn. However, each migration is made up of approximately three generations that make the journey there and back. “The kids are really interested in nature and they learn a lot at school about nature and recycling,” Green said. After the kids learned about the monarchs, they wanted to start the Flutterby Butterfly Garden. Beginning last fall, the family began planting the waystation and constructing the habitat at Green’s home, directly across from Grand Park Sports Complex on 186th Street. Ten monarch butterflies were shipped to Green and her family from Michigan. The monarchs were shipped cooled and were misted with water and fed Gatorade, a nectar substitute, while they waited for their release.
The kids and Green built a monarch waystation, which includes stinging nettle and sticks for shelter, water, nectar plants for food and, of course, milkweed. They enclosed the space with a fence and released the butterflies. Soon, the monarchs will start laying eggs on the milkweed, which is the only spot where the butterflies will lay their eggs. Green said they are going to buy some caterpillars to release in the garden as well. Mayor Andy Cook, his wife and grandkids made the trip out to the waystation to see the ceremonial release of the monarchs. Green told him she would send a starter kit for a monarch waystation to him for his grandkids. On July 6, the date of the release and ribbon cutting, the family’s waystation joined a registry of more than 10,000 waystation sites across the nation. “This is beyond my wildest dreams,” Green said. “The kids got a certificate for ap-
by the numbers preciation, and they have a number for this waystation.” Some people who create waystations even mark their monarchs to track them and their journey. All who attended the release received a pamphlet on monarchs, a bumper sticker and an experience of observing the butterflies in their natural habitat. Upon their release, the butterflies fluttered through the air, making their way directly to the milkweed and other flowers in the
Monarchs can travel from 50 to 100 miles a day ••• They must migrate 1,500 miles south to Mexico in the fall ••• Monarchs cannot fly if body temperature is less than 86 degrees Fahrenheit ••• Their wings flap between 300 and 700 times per minute, slower than other butterflies ••• Monarchs can lay about 250 eggs a day ••• Monarchs live 2-6 weeks *Source: www.monarch-butterfly.com

waystation. An educational board that depicts the life of a caterpillar and monarch also was installed in the waystation. “There’re lots of monarchs who can fly anywhere they want,” Haylee said. In the fall, the monarchs start their trip back to Mexico. “They know exactly where to go,” Green said. “They’re not like some other butterflies; they have to migrate.” Green said that she and her family hope to encourage others to develop waystations or even just plant common milkweed to support monarchs. The family is also considering establishing its waystation as a place for field trips for schools. “(The kids) can enjoy the progress with their city and also enjoy and appreciate what they can do with nature with these beautiful monarchs,” Green said. “They’ve been out here getting dirt under their fingernails working on this project.”

Safety a top priority at Westfield Washington Schools By Sadie Hunter • sadie@youarecurrent.com Westfield Washington Schools takes the safety and security of their students and staff seriously, which isn’t surprising after the district announced in March that it would be starting a pilot program to install seatbelts in some of its buses. But the district began taking safety measures before that. All schools within the district have specific safety preparedness plans, and small groups like the WWS Security Team and WWS Safety Committee help create and enforce them. The Safety Committee, led by Chris Baldwin, executive director of human resources, consists of building administrators, central office staff, the district school resource officer and two school security officers (security team), and representatives from the Westfield Police Department and Westfield Fire Department. The committee meets monthly to review and revise safety procedures. Through this committee’s work, the district has a strong relationship with the city police and fire departments and Hamilton County Emergency Management. Each member of the committee is required to be a School Safety Specialist through the Indiana Department of Education’s School Safety

An explanation of sorts
FR O M T HE BA C K SH O P Truth to power Trump to prez? Donald Trump, that free-talking candidate for the Republican nomination for president, leads his GOP rivals in polling as of last week. Amazing. This is the same version of The Donald that recently made disgustingly disparaging remarks about Mexican immigrants, that has been jettisoned by a number of TV network and commercial enterprises and that claims a perfect candidacy because he’s a “really rich guy.” Apparently, voters want plain speaking. Give him credit on some level, though, because in some ways he has his spine intact. ••• Lest ye believe we only poke at politicians here, consider this woman a candidate for the annual Darwin Awards, which take time out to “honor” the stupid. The woman, a Tennessee resident, has been busted for using counterfeit money. Why did she do it? Because she read an online account that said President Barack Obama declared it legal to do so. He did no such thing. Even better, she faked her $5 and $100 bills by printing them in black and white, and then gluing the fronts and backs together. She was arrested and charged with criminal simulation (simulating a criminal?) and counterfeiting. ’Merica! ••• We took a media tour of the Indianapolis Mormon Temple in Carmel last week, and, not knowing what to expect, we were blown away by its stunningly tasteful beauty. And we continue to be impressed by the unbridled grace with which we have been greeted and treated, in person and by phone, by those affiliated with the temple.

Commentary by Danielle Wilson
Dogs are people, too
Commentary by Terry Anker
While it would be fair to say that we like pets in general, we have a preference for the canine variety of domesticated beasts. Millions of Americans invite dogs, cats, gerbils, fish and countless others of God’s creatures into their homes (often sleeping in the same room if not the same bed). At a recent conference on merger and acquisition activity held here in Central Indiana, several of the panelists representing investor groups and investment banks pointed to the growing spending in the pet area. More than increasing quality in food provided for our cohabitants, it seems that we are attentive to the overall quality of life they experience. Clothing, furniture, spas, resorts and countless other products and ideas prove that in spite of what has been a difficult economy, we LOVE our furry friends. Most of us don’t completely buy into the aphorism that “dogs are people, too.” But, it is understandable that we personify them.
Empathy, attention, joy and concern are all on the docket for the routine interaction with a pet. And, they display an amazing array of what can only be called personalities. Some are engaging, extroverted beings that seem happiest when interacting with their human counterparts. Others are shy, introverted animals that appear to prefer a quiet spot in the sun to the chaos of daily family life. Whether demeanor is determined by breeding, socialization or a combination of both has long been debated, and not satisfactorily answered, but can they help us to understand our own interactions with other animals of the human variety? Do we bark at anyone that enters the space we believe to be our own yard? Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC. You may e-mail him at terry@currentinwestfield.com.
Q U O T E O F T HE WEE K “Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn’t do than by the ones you did do.” – Mark Twain
I received several “hate emails” over a recent column, the one where I was trying to figure out if my 11-year-old had become a brat because of her age or humor because of competitive dance. So because I have at least another year of fishnet hose, glitter lipstick and obnoxious awards ceremonies, I thought it wise to clarify my position before a fellow dance mom shanks me backstage with a mascara wand. [Is the verb shank or shiv? I haven’t started season three of “Orange is the New Black” and my prison lingo is rusty!] For starters, not all “dance people” perpetuate or even tolerate the crazy. My daughter has made wonderful friends and developed the strength, grace and self-confidence of a much older girl in her two short years of training. I would (and have) left her in the care of almost every dance mom on her team and trust their babysitting skills more than my husband’s. Her instructors not only expect, but demand respect, accountability and hard work, and understand that these are the qualities that make a good dancer, not the number of trophies she takes home. If I didn’t love her studio and the quality environment they maintain, she would not be dancing. Period. However, anyone who claims that the world of dance doesn’t have its fair share of drama is either not involved or lying. I have seen mothers yell at their preschoolers while they fought to apply fake eyelashes. I have heard girls belittle their own teammates for falling out of turn. And I have had parents make snide remarks to me for belonging to what they considered a lower-class studio. Costumes cost up to $200 each and solos run $100 per competition. $10,000 a year is definitely not unheard of. Like in all competitive sports, dance attracts a fair number of nut jobs. And most pre-teens are, at one time or another, insufferable brats. My point is, when you marry the two together, you potentially have a recipe for crazy. That’s all I’m saying, so please don’t shank/shiv me next season! Peace out. Danielle Wilson is a contributing columnist. You may e-mail her at danielle@currentinwestfield. com.

A trip to nap town Commentary by Dick Wolfsie New findings confirm the benefits of a siesta. Recently, I lost interest in this daily respite, so I headed to the doctor. I told humor him I was often awake 10 or 12 hours in a row. “So, Dick, you don’t fall asleep at night?” “No, Doc, I sleep great at night. It’s all day that I can’t sleep.” In this research there is so much to think about that it’s keeping me up all day. The study claims “the kind of nap you take depends on the time you have at your disposal.” Recently, I fell asleep next to the sink while running the disposal. My wife decided it was a toss-up which of us she would rather sleep next to. There are three types of naps: • The Habitual Nap: Take whether you are tired or not. It’s 2 p.m., Time to lie down. If I knew in preschool that I was training to be a senior citizen, I might have been more cooperative. • The Planned Nap: You’re not tired, but you are going to a play later and you don’t want to snore and drool through the entire second act.
• The Emergency Nap: You are driving to Chicago. You’ve had three tall cups of coffee and jammed a ball-point pen into your thigh, but you are still nodding off. Scientists say emergency naps are taken out of “bleary-eyed, foggy-headed necessity.” Personally, I believe in a little more pre-planning. That’s why I am already preparing to take a nap … tomorrow. The quickest nap is the six-minute Ultra Short, which supposedly improves your shortterm memory. Why, then, when you awaken, is the first thing you say: “Where am I?” My brother is a big fan of this nap, but his clients keep waking him, screaming from the back seat of his taxi. It’s 2 p.m. and Mary Ellen is upstairs. She denies that she ever naps. But I must say, right now she is doing a pretty good impersonation of how I sound when I snore.

OneZone talks public transit
Editor, In addition to other business-serving organizations in Greenwood, Indianapolis and Westfield, OneZone is in support of the creation of a Regional Development Authority. We applaud Current’s comments that the idea could work, and we’ve consistently championed the belief that public transit is important to our region’s future economic development. But here’s where we disagree: • Privatization. Presuming privatizing transit would necessarily make the endeavor profitable requires a large leap in logic. Public transit around the world, with rare exception, does not make a profit, and is subsidized to ensure its availability to everyone. • Use of public funding. Why do we have no problem utilizing public monies for infrastructure – streets, highways and bridges, but not transit? Why didn’t we demand that U.S. 31 be privately constructed? Why not privatize municipal street maintenance and snow removal? • Economic need and Business attraction. We’re excited when we attract new businesses with hundreds of jobs to our

Students bring ‘Mary Poppins’ to the Summer Stock stage
By Maddie Yerant • news@currentinwestfield.com
This summer, audiences and high school performers alike will get to take a jolly holiday with Mary Poppins and her chimney sweep friend Bert. performance Summer Stock Stage will present “Mary Poppins” at Park Tudor School from July 22-26. The event will be featuring performers from the ages of 13 to 18 from a bevy of local schools, including Carmel, Fishers, Zionsville and Westfield. According to Emily Ristine Holloway, director and Summer Stock founder, she chose the show for its ability to include as many students as possible. “We try to do shows that are a little bit more ambitious than what people typically do in their high schools, and also shows that provide lots of opportunities for multiple leads and large ensembles so that we can include as many students from the community as possible,” Ristine Holloway said. Ambitious is a good word for “Mary Poppins,” a crucial feature of which is having the actors who play magical nanny Mary and lovable chimney sweep Bert fly or walk upside-down,
respectively, across the stage. “Mary Poppins flies, and then Bert also does a proscenium walk where he walks up the side wall, walks upside-down across the top and walks (back) down in ‘Step in Time,’” Ristine Holloway said. “Similar to Peter Pan, Mary Poppins has to have that magical quality, or the story can’t really be told.” According to Elizabeth Hutson, who plays Mary, and Matt Conwell, who plays Bert, flying on stage is just as intimidating as it sounds. For “Step in Time,” Conwell is attached to a metal square of approximately one foot, which is then hooked up to a conveyer belt to move him as he tap dances upside-down across the proscenium. “I cried when she told me I would do it, because I didn’t think it was going to happen,” said Conwell. “It’s scary, but I’m too excited to be that scared.” Hutson said another intimidation factor is finding a way to put her own spin on a beloved character originally played by the likes of legendary actress Julie Andrews. However, Hutson’s history with Summer Stock – she played Anna in last year’s “The King and I” – helped ease her into this new role.
“I felt a lot of pressure last year with Anna, and so this year, it’s kind of relaxed a little more for me,” Hutson said. “I just need that (relaxation), because if you start thinking about it too much, you jazz yourself out.” Conwell said he felt more excitement than pressure at the idea of taking on the character of Bert. “It’s so much fun to play these iconic roles and to put you own spin on it,” Conwell said. “That’s what every actor dreams of, I feel like: to be able to put your mark on something so beloved.” Conwell, Hutson and Ristine Holloway said they’re all excited for audiences to see their hard work come to fruition – especially in tricky dance numbers, including “Step in Time,” “Jolly Holiday” and “Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious.” “I’m excited for people to see how we spell ‘Supercal’ with our bodies,” Hutson said. “It goes faster and faster and faster. You’re spelling it with your body the whole time. It’s ridiculous.” Overall, Hutson said she can’t wait to take the stage. “It’s really good,” Hutson said. “I’m so excited.” For more information, including how to purchase a ticket, visit www.summerstockstage.com.

Grilled Vegetable Pizza Total Time: 25 mins Original recipe makes 4-6 servings Ingredients: 2 cups small broccoli florets, 2 cups thinly sliced zucchini, 8 thin slices red onion, 1/4 cup vinaigrette dressing, 2 medium heirloom tomatoes, thinly sliced, 2 (8- to 9-inch) frozen cornmeal or other pizza crusts, thawed, pepper to taste, 1/2 pound crumbled feta cheese, 2 tablespoons mixed chopped herbs (such as basil, rosemary and oregano) Directions: Heat a grill.

Bake until cheese is browned and vegetables are crisp, 15 to 20 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board, cut into slices and serve.

July Specials - Introducing ... Megan Tiller (Ado Annie) and Aaron Jacobs (Will Parker) in ‘Oklahoma’ on stage now at the Civic Theatre. (Submitted photo)
Teens take over in ‘Oklahoma’ By Heather Lusk news@currentinwestfield.com
Every summer the participants of Civic Theatre’s Young Adult Program have the chance to learn performance about every aspect of the Theatre and then bring those lessons to life by putting on a musical production. “The entire show is run by truly talented high school students under the supervision of professionals,” according to Kelly Smith, Young Adult Program coordinator. They can learn about costumes, set design, and even the orchestra, as high schoolers play in the pit next to professionals from the Indiana Wind Symphony. YAP, open to students aged 14 - 18, consists of a seven-week summer program and year-round workshops to learn about various aspects of Theatre. The summer program allows the students the additional opportunity to put on a performance such as this year’s production of “Oklahoma.”
blc#21341320
“It feels more like a professional show, like the feeling of a Beef and Boards or an actual Civic (Theatre) show,” said upcoming high school senior Nick Gehring, Zionsville, a first time participant in YAP who plays Curly. “It feels really exhilarating to be a part of this process.” Gehring has been a part of many performances through school and summer stock but the West Clay resident has been impressed with the opportunities that YAP allows the young actors and crew. “We get the exact same experience that some of these professionals would get,” he said. “It’s so cleanly run, they’ve thought out every aspect of it.” Summer workshop topics vary from combat training to playing different ages on the stage to life in New York City and are open to any eligible students, with roughly 60 percent each summer also participating in the musical. For tickets to Oklahoma, contact the Civic Theatre box office at 843-3800. The show runs from July 23-26.

Since June, Riverview Health in Noblesville has offered a resource to heart health that not many other hospitals can update provide. Riverview Health Heart & Vascular added on to the cardiovascular suite of the hospital, installing a new, enhanced cath lab, providing ample space and technology to accommodate surgeons and anesthesiologists in case a cardiovascular procedure turns surgical. A wider variety of procedures also can be performed there. Tammi Nash, clinical operations director at Riverview Health said, “We implemented and brought this lab in just because of the growth in vascular disease. Cardiovascular disease is the number one killer of both men and women in the country. So, we have a very strong cardiac program. The decision on construction began about two years ago with planning stages and site visits at hospitals. Then, last year, Riverview decided which equipment and accessories were necessary. Construction began in December.

On July 9, Mayor John Ditslear attended a personal tour to see the lab and equipment. “It’s a very unique situation,” he said. “Riverview Health has done a great job here, and it’s something to be proud of. It’s a step forward here for modern technology.” “This technology is not in any other lab in the Indianapolis area, it allows us to do complex procedures that other hospitals can’t do,” said Angie Bolinger, manager of cardiology at Riverview Health. “We are being used as a model so other people can come and see the design of our lab.”

Hamilton County ranks No. 1 in Indiana median household wealth among counties and also in retirement readiness index. The survey was by SmartAsfinance set.com, a financial technology website which provides dates for big financial decisions such as home buying, retirement and life insurance. “We have more than 130 data partners we work with to power that advice,” said A.J. Smith, managing editor for SmartAsset.com. “Our fingers are always in that data and we’re always analyzing it. We want to inform and educate when people are making these big decisions.” Smith said in many states, the counties with the highest median income were not the tops in retirement readiness. Hamilton County, which has median household income average of $71,727, had a score of 61.54 retirement readiness index. Smith said Hamilton County did well nationally, too, with
No. 51 ranking. “We looked at the ability to save in the county and that was a function of how much it cost to live there versus the income people are making,” Smith said. “That gives you a measure of the opportunity for people to save for retirement. We also looked at the tax friendliness of the area. If you would stay in Hamilton County and retire there, how tax friendly it is. You have to save more if you are going to face tax barriers in retirement.” The No. 1 county (Sumpter County in Florida) in the nation was given a score of 100. Then SmartAsset analysts graded on a curve on that basis, Smith said. SmartAsset combined factors of total wealth, social security income, cost of living and tax to determine which counties had the residents who were best meeting their retirement goals. This is the first year SmartAsset. com has conducted the survey. For more information, visitsmartasset.com/ retirement/401k-calculator#indiana.
