Norris announces bid for council seat

Republican candidate Evan M. Norris recently announced he will run for one of the two at-large seats on the Zionsville Town Council in the May 2 primary election.

ELECTION

Republican incumbents Alex Choi and Brad Burk withdrew from the at-large races, leaving both seats open. Burk is running for the District 5 seat. Republican Joe Stein and Democrat Amanda Rubeck have also launched campaigns for at-large seats.

“I am one of the few candidates with legal training,” said Norris, an attorney. “After watching the town council and mayor’s administration struggle for the past three years, I find it vital for the town’s future to elect leaders with practical legal experience and who knows how the adversarial process works.”

Norris said his experience would help him be an effective councilor, if elected.

“Ensuring sustainable growth of the town with my legal training, education and experience will allow me to assist the town council in navigating the intricacies of both

the legislative process and compliance with the Indiana Code and Administrative Code,” he said. “My background is heavily rooted in litigation. I believe litigation experience is crucial for looking for potential issues or conflicts when planning for the future.”

Norris has lived in Zionsville for eight years.

“I want to work for everyone in Zionsville, including those looking to plant their roots and raise a family in the greatest town in the Midwest,” he said. “When I moved to Zionsville, I was welcomed by so many with open arms. I feel it is my civic duty to give back to the town, working to keep Zionsville one of the most sought-after places to live.”

Norris, 35, is a graduate of Indiana State University with a bachelor’s degree in political science and legal studies and has a certificate in health law and policy from the Indiana University McKinney School of Law. He is an attorney at Drewry, Simmons, Vornehm LLP, a law firm in Carmel with a primary focus on providing legal services to all aspects of the construction industry.

Norris received the 2022 Defense Trial Counsel of Indiana Outstanding Young Lawyer of the Year Award and was also a

recipient of the 2022 Super Lawyer Rising Star Award.

Norris said legal knowledge is crucial to understanding and preventing a future strain between the mayor and the council.

“There is no denying that the relationship between the mayor (Emily Styron) and the town council has been strained for several years,” he said. “In particular, the mayor’s lawsuit against the town council resulted in six-figure fees for services rendered to litigate the case. If elected, it would be my goal to set aside those past issues and work towards rebuilding a more symbiotic relationship.”

Norris said he supports the expansion of growth in the town and attracting new business to the area.

“I believe that enhancing the transportation corridor around the Village is vital and that the town should look to expand growth south of Sycamore Street,” he said. “Both goals can be achieved with thoughtful and deliberative planning between the mayor’s administration and the town council.”

Norris and his wife, Danielle, have four daughters: Maxwell, Cameron, Kennedy and Vivienne.

Stein seeks Zionsville at-large seat

Stein said he supports working together on realistic agendas that are deliverable to the town.

ELECTION

Republican candidate Joe Stein recently announced he will run for one of the two at-large seats on the Zionsville Town Council in the May 2 primary election.

Incumbent Republicans Alex Choi and Brad Burk recently withdrew from the at-large race, leaving both seats available. Burk is now running for the District 5 seat. Two remaining candidates filed for at-large seats: Republican Evan M. Norris and Democrat Amanda Rubeck.

“Both of the other candidates have different skills to offer, but I believe that my service to the community of Zionsville is proven, and I look forward to the opportunity to serve again,” Stein said. “I was excited to run against so many great people and was surprised to see that people dropped out, but I believe the town will see my record and stand with me.”

“I won’t make any promises I cannot keep,” he said. “With that said, I will work tirelessly to be the best council member possible by lending my skills in accounting to the budget process as I strive to keep the town moving forward in a positive direction, leaving the town better than I found it, just like I did on the Zionsville school board.”

Stein, a Zionsville resident for 31 years, said he is not running for town council with an agenda to change the town.

“I am always in favor of transparency with the community by speaking with and listening to taxpayers and working with my colleagues to implement changes that the group sees as beneficial to our town,” he said.

Stein, 56, is a graduate of Indiana University. He has a degree in accounting and is a CPA. He was the CFO of Taft Law Firm for 15 years and is now the CFO of Ideal Food

Group, a family-owned regional Wholesale Food Distributor. Stein also owns Backroads BBQ in Lebanon, a Texas-style barbeque restaurant.

Stein has nearly 20 years of experience leading youth groups at his church, Zionsville Fellowship, and served two terms on the Zionsville school board, including his last two years as president. Stein also partners for Moody’s Butcher Shop in Zionsville and owns several other small businesses.

Stein said his corporate accounting experience would help him in office, if elected.

“I am very qualified to understand good financial stewardship,” Stein said. “As a former CPA for many years, I am experienced in taking on the legislative and financial aspects of the town as I know firsthand how to handle the challenges of budget constraints successfully.”

Stein and his wife Donna have been married for 34 years.

“I believe the town council fits my strengths, and I will be thankful to serve such a great town,” Stein said.

‘Wearable art’ boutique to close

Joan “Lilly” Carney, owner of Lilly’s Wearable Art, will close her boutique at 110 N. Main St. in downtown Zionsville after 32 years to give back to the community and mentor aspiring designers and shop owners.

“I would travel abroad and meet artisans and bring clothes back to my store,” Carney said. “That gave those smaller designers a way to sell their clothing and make money. I have a passion for helping artisans.”

GIVING BACK

“I have been mentored by fashion icons and designers that were world famous, and I met people along the way that took me by surprise because they wanted to help me,” Carney said. “I want to be that mentor and help other people succeed.”

The store will close permanently in mid-March.

In 1992, Carney opened her first store, Lilly’s Boutique, in Zionsville. She found clothes for her boutique by traveling to different nations and selecting different multicultural pieces to sell at her store. The boutique sells items from Africa, Thailand, Scotland, Ireland and Germany, among other nations. Carney said her clothes are “wearable art.”

Carney met her first mentor in Finland in Annikki Karmine, one of Finland’s top designers.

“She was the first designer eager to help me,” Carney said. “She was No. 1 in Finland, and we got to go to her home.”

Carney was inspired throughout her career by Beverly Rice, who was an Indianapolis fashion icon; Mariana Zaharoff, who designed President Reagan’s daughter Patti’s wedding dress; and Elena Pelaniva in Indianapolis.

“I was so blessed with all the people that came into my life and wanted to help me get where I am today,” she said. “It was all meant to be,”

Carney said she plans to start a scholarship at IUPUI to help young designers travel abroad, learn about cultural clothing designs and attend fashion school. She will also be at venues hosting fashion shows for nonprofits to help small artisans grow businesses.

extremely unselfish and coachable and just wants the team to win and isn’t worried about her own stats,” Shelton said.

Shelton said Minch started some games as a freshman and every game the past two seasons. She averaged 17.5 points per game as a sophomore.

“I used to be pinned as a 3-point shooter, for the most part,” Minch said. “But the past two years, I’ve been working on improving other aspects of my game, driving and pullup shots and posting up. I think I did a good job of improving my ball handling.”

“My dad played in college, so he was pretty upset when I quit,” Minch said. “Shortly after that, we were at Target, and I really wanted this polar bear. He bribed me with that and said if I played my next year, he would get me the polar bear. I enjoyed it and haven’t stopped playing since.”

Now a Mt. Vernon High School junior, Minch still has that stuffed animal and has several NCAA Division I college basketball offers to go along with it. The offers include the University of Cincinnati, University of Toledo and Butler University.

Minch, whose father Ted played at Florida Atlantic University, said she will likely wait to see if other offers come in after AAU play this summer.

Gaming STEM Camp, a popular choice for Minecraft players

Indy Stem Camps is gearing up for another summer of Minecraft, an innovative STEM program for creative gameplay.

The camp has locations in Carmel, Zionsville, Noblesville and Indianapolis, with two separate locations in Fishers. Registration is underway. The camps run from June 5 through July 28.

“My son loves these camps. The counselors are fantastic,” said Aubrey Able, the parent of a student camper.

Founder Matt Mulholland, a physics teacher at Zionsville Community High School, began offering Minecraft camps in the summer of 2012 when his children became obsessed with the game.

“When my two daughters were about 10 years old, I noticed that they were playing this new video game nonstop, so I started playing with them and quickly realized the educational value of Minecraft in teaching children to create and problem solves,” Mulholland said.

Campers in first through eighth grade experience Minecraft through a customized educational version of the game on a secure server that includes only other campers and is continuously monitored by camp counselors.

All campers have their own computer workstation and can play Minecraft in multiplayer worlds with other campers. With eight unique camp titles to choose from, there is something for every child.

“Minecraft Camp was the highlight of my child’s summer to the point where he is signed up for four camps this coming summer,” Dana Harrison, a camper parent, said.

Each Minecraft Camp lasts three hours day. Camps are offered five days a week for a total of 15 hours of gameplay and instruction. Indy Stem Camps maintains an 8-to-1 camper-to-instructor ratio, allowing parents to opt their child out of any player versus player game activities.

All eight-course titles provide a unique curriculum and theme and has three experience levels, beginner, intermediate and advanced, according to Mulholland. Two modes of play, creative and survival, are emphasized. Additionally, a grade-level recommendation for each camp is provided to help parents find the right camp for their child.

“There are a million summer athletic camps, but very few for kids more interested in computers and gaming. Our Minecraft Camps fill a void by offering something different but just as enjoyable for children to do during their summer,” Mulholland said.

BGCN camps full of activities

Children will have no shortage of activities to stay busy during summer camps offered by the Boys & Girls Club of Noblesville.

The nonprofit offers something for campers who want to stay indoors through its Club Daybreak program, while those who are seeking something more adventurous outdoors can register for Camp Crosser that is situated on 20 acres of land near the White River. Abby Stutesman, director of club operations, said both programs begin June 5 and run for eight weeks.

Camp Crosser remains a popular destination and allows campers to enjoy zip lining, archery, a gaga ball pit, greenspace, trees, trails and campfire cooking opportunities, according to Stutesman. A nature center is also available that provides outdoor educational opportunities, she added.

“All of these activities happen throughout the week,” Stutesman said.

Stutesman said days begin at 7:30 a.m. with all campers being first dropped off at the Boys & Girls Club of Noblesville before they depart on a bus to the camp property. Campers will be at the Camp Crosser property each day from 8 a.m. to 3:30 p.m.

Camp is open to individuals ages 6 to 13, and Stutesman noted that there are different weekly themes with all activities planned around those themes. She said the

zip line is among the most popular activities at Cam Crosser.

“It’s definitely a focal point for Camp Crosser and it allows our campers to be challenged, but not too challenged that they can’t accomplish it,” Stutesman said. “Once they start zipping, they don’t want to quit.”

Meanwhile, Club Daybreak also gives campers an opportunity to enjoy programs within an indoor setting and is held at the Boys & Girls Club of Noblesville, 1700 Conner St. Participants can enjoy the facility’s game room, tech center, arts studio and enjoy field trips, according to Stutesman.

“We schedule guest speakers, we schedule events in our gym, so we can keep all the program areas within this facility that allows us to do art and education and technology and social recreation,” Stutesman said.

Stutesman said when school gets out, kids are ready to have an enjoyable summer and that is an important focus for the Boys & Girls Club of Noblesville.

“We’ve got to make sure that we have activities ready to go that are engaging and fun, because summer can get really long for a kiddo if they’re not involved in something that’s stimulating for them,” she said.

Camp Crosser and Club Daybreak officially end at 4 p.m. each day, but parents will have the option of extended care for their children that requires a separate fee, Stutesman said. For more, visit bgcni.org/.

Guerin camps offer variety

If kids are looking for some fun this summer, Guerin Catholic High School’s Camp Purple has something for youths of all ages.

Camps ranging from sports, baking and music are offered in June and July to children entering kindergarten through eighth grade.

“We are lucky to have both athletic and enrichment camps that cover a variety of interests. Some of our most popular athletic camps include boys and girls basketball, lacrosse and soccer,” said Colleen Ward, director of marketing and communications at Guerin Catholic. “If campers are looking for something different, we recommend checking out our popular STEM camps such as Summertime STEM, Mad Scientist Camp and our new Guerin Catholic Space Camp. These camps are fun ways to engage with important academic content while having a blast.”

Ward said what makes Camp Purple unique is access to Guerin Catholic’s community and staff.

“Camp Purple is more than just a place to spend summer break,” she said. “It’s

an experience that becomes a tiny part of who each child is. Campers are encouraged to step out of their comfort zone, as they develop valuable skills and discover their God-given gifts in a safe and noncompetitive environment.”

Ward said camps are led by Guerin Catholic’s teachers, alumni and varsity-level coaching staff who are passionate about their programs and the outcome of each camper they serve. A new program, Camp Chaos, is being offered this year and should be a fun experience for campers in first- to third-grade, said Marcia Murphy, director of fine arts at Guerin Catholic.

“We’ll make messy foods, make slime, dig in the garden and do other messy activities,” Murphy said.

Murphy said what makes Guerin Catholic’s fine arts camps unique is the fact that leaders are trying to inspire students to be creators while recognizing and seeking beauty. She noted that Guerin Catholic’s promise statement, “Love the children first, then teach them,” applies to students who attend camps.

Sailing camp teaches all levels

Luke Andritsch was sold immediately on the Indianapolis Sailing Club.

“I started going to sailing camp when I was in second grade and immediately fell in love. The counselors were amazing and the experience of learning a new sport in a camp environment that took place on the water and on land hooked me,” Andritsch said. “I went back every summer for multiple weeks, learning new things about sailing, myself and working with others every year. This led me to becoming a counselor at sailing camp and getting to teach and show how special this place is to others.”

Andritsch, a 19-year-old Fishers resident, will be a counselor.

“Sailing camp is a place for me that symbolizes joy, and our staff works hard to make sure that is how the campers experience it each summer,” said Andritsch, a 2022 Hamilton Southeastern High School graduate who attends Butler University.

The camps, located on Geist Reservoir, run for six weeks from June 12 to July 28 for ages 8-17.

Michelle Sarber, the club’s junior sailing

director, said there are beginner to advanced levels. Campers get divided by age and experience.

“Each week is different due to the different experience levels of the campers,” Sarber said. “That helps to keep each week new and fresh. We have a ranking system if campers choose to participate. There are seven levels. Kids who really want to learn to sail come back year after year to complete the ranks.”

The Indianapolis Sailing Club accomplished a major goal in 2022 by establishing a nonprofit education organization to better support its training programs. The charitable educational organization is called Indianapolis Sailing Club Academy Inc.

Summer camps reflect ‘hallmarks’ of the Park Tudor

Park Tudor’s summer camps aim to provide many elements similar to what its students experience during the school year.

“Park Tudor’s summer camps and classes feature small class sizes and lots of individual attention – hallmarks of the Park Tudor educational experience,” said Rachel Dabertin, director of auxiliary programs at Park Tudor. “Many of our camps and classes are taught by our own exceptional teaching staff, along with highly qualified outside instructors. So, in addition to having fun, students learn and grow.”

The school at 7200 N. College Ave. in Indianapolis offers summer camp options for children from age 3 to 18 years old. Offerings include a general day camp and sessions focusing on arts and crafts, sports, performing arts, science, robotics, literature, Spanish language immersion, chess and gaming and more. Half- and full-day options are available.

“Our wide variety of options offer something for everyone and will give families a taste of the Park Tudor experience,” Dabertin said.

Registration for the camps opens in March and will continue until spots are filled. Dalbertin recommends signing up early, as the camps and classes can fill quickly. Learn more at parktudor.org/summer.

Theatre camps provide variety

Carmel-based Civic Theatre summer camps provide opportunities for students with a wide range of ages and abilities.

Except for an intensive camp for older students, Holly Stults, Civic Theatre education program director, said the camps often include newcomers and kids who have performed before.

“Every child has an even playing field,” Stults said. “Every child is a star. Every child has the same amount of material to perform.”

The one-week camps are run by Stults and Brent E. Marty, director of music and education.

The Little Stages camp is for ages 4-5 and will run from 10 to 11:30 a.m. June 26-29.

“Every year the theme changes and it coincides with the Junior Civic musical,” Stults said.

With the Junior Civic Theatre musical being “Newsies” June 23-28, the camp is called the Headline Edition.

“We do a song that has to do with headlines or papers,” Stults said. “They do story-

telling through music. They have costume pieces. We do a presentation for family and friends on the last day.”

Marty said all camps end with a presentation. Musical Theatre Mini-Camp is for ages 6-7 from 12:30 to 3 p.m. June 26-29.

The Jr. Civic Musical Theatre Camp for ages 8-14 will be held from 9 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. the weeks of July 10-14 and July 17-21. Those camps culminate with a performance on The Tarkington stage at 6 p.m. on the final day of camp. There is a 60-children limit on camp size each week.

“One year we did songs that were from particular theaters on Broadway,” Stults said. “Each age group has a different theme, and they learn songs from that. It allows us to give them an opportunity to not only learn singing, dancing and acting but the history of particular Broadway performers, composers or choreographers.”

Marty said all camps are process based.

The Musical Theatre Intensive camp for ages 10-14 is for advanced students. Marty said there is an application process to get into the camp, which is held July 5-7. For more, visit civictheatre.org.

YMCA offers a range of camps

The YMCA’s summer camp schedule is filled with activities designed to give children ages 3-12 the opportunity to participate with other kids or enjoy time with the family.

Northern region clubs in Westfield and Fishers and Fort Benjamin Harrison in Lawrence are offering traditional camps and discovery camps. Enrichment clinics are available as add-ons.

Association Director of Camps and Family Programs, Desiree Brando-Gouveia said,

“Traditional camps have a lot of the traditional elements that people think of when they think of camp at YMCA,” said Desiree Brando-Gouveia, association director of camps and family programs for YMCA. “They have a lot of camp elements.”

Campers will have access to the clubs’ facilities, such as pools, gyms, sports fields and other outdoor space. Traditional camp activities include swimming, camp circles, arts and crafts, songs and more. Traditional Camps will be offered at all four YMCA locations.

Brando-Gouveia said the discovery camps

are slightly different from the traditional camps.

“They are STEAM- (science, technology, engineering, arts, and math) based camp,” Brando-Gouveia said. “Every week they have a theme, and the theme is a STEAM-based theme.”

Campers can participate in activities designed to keep them physically and mentally active in indoor and outdoor space at an offsite YMCA location, such as Thorp Creek Elementary School.

The enrichment clinics will be offered at both camps, giving campers a chance to try something new or explore a passion.

“It’s a way for families to allow the kids to do an added activity at an added portion of the day, beyond the normal camp day,” Brando-Gouveia said.

Campers will have the chance to learn a new skill, such as cooking or pottery. They can explore interests such as dance or LEGO building. Sports such as flag football and bowling will be available at the enrichment clinics.

Camp Bow Wow eyes June opening in Noblesville

After a 30-year career as a dentist, Angie Hutter is aiming to use the same connection skills in her new endeavor as owner of Camp Bow Wow in Noblesville.

“My patients were my extended family, and these pups are going to be extended family, as well, and their pet parents,” Hutter said. “We want to be friendly, and for everyone to know everyone when they walk in. That’s our desire.”

land Rd. is set to open in June. It will provide the same programs and standards that are found at Camp Bow Wow’s more than 200 other sites nationwide.

According to Hutter, Camp Bow Wow places a top priority on safety for its employees, known as counselors, and canines, known as campers, with the counselors all being pet first aid- and CPR-certified. Live webcams capture the action throughout the day. Pups can play in large groups separated by weight or be directed into smaller

group settings or one-on-one time with a counselor.

Most programming is the same yearround, although themes change with the seasons and the pups get more outdoor time during nice weather months.

All campers must pass an interview process, which includes meeting and interacting with other dogs, before being accepted to camp.

Students launch recycling awareness project at Zionsville Community High School PURPOSE TO REPURPOSE

Four Zionsville Community High School students wanted to make a meaningful impact with a class project to help their school. They are doing it through a recycling awareness project that will launch next month at the school.

“The special part about the recycle awareness project is that the group was ready to jump on board an issue they identified and start coming up with a solution that benefits the school,” said Danielle Wilson, AP U.S. history teacher at ZCHS.

ZCHS juniors Payton Bohm, Spencer Krone, Andrew Raikos and John Gunderman started the schoolwide Recycling Awareness Program, or R.A.P., as part of the U.S. history service-learning graduation requirement. The program runs the week of March 14-20.

“I’ve always been a big fan of helping the environment, and this project has pushed me to do my part for it,” Raikos said.

The recycling project’s goal is to create a better plan for recycling at the school.

“Finding ways to promote environmental conscientiousness and also help out our school is awesome, and I’m glad we got this opportunity,” Gunderman said.

The students said they could choose any topic for the project as long as it was local.

“My group and I started researching and investigating environmental issues and decided on plastic waste because my dad is knowledgeable on that,” said Krone, the project leader. “We went to my dad and asked what his company was doing.”

Krone’s dad, Peter Krone, works for Amcor Rigid Plastics, a supplier of rigid plastic packaging that uses post-consumer recycled packaging, a material made from items that consumers recycle every day to use as packaging.

“Recycling today is more important than ever because of our need for packaging and using recyclable materials,” Peter Krone said.

To utilize PCR at the local level, the students said the first thing that needed to happen was for recycling to be conducted. They partnered with the school to imple-

ment a student recycling experiment in which they will gather data for an entire week.

“We want to see what is being put in the school’s blue recycling bins, from paper and cans to plastic bottles, and measure how they are being properly recycled,” Krone said.

After counting the contents in each bin, the students said they will bring the data back to the school and demonstrate where recycling bins should be placed so that students, teachers and staff are more inclined to recycle.

“One of the main parts of recycling is getting people involved in knowing about it,” Spencer Krone said.

With Earth Day approaching April 22, the students plan to help the town of Zionsville find sufficient recycling methods using the data collected from the school.

“In addition to the recycling awareness project, we plan to go to our local Lions Club to start a recreational service partnership to help implement a recycling plan for the park in May,” Krone said.

At the moment, the school only recycles paper, but Spencer Krone said he wants to expand to other types of recyclables in the

RECYCLING 101

WHY RECYCLE?

Recycling conserves energy, reduces air and water pollution, reduces greenhouse gasses, and conserves natural resources. Recyclable materials are reprocessed into new products, and as a result, the amount of rubbish sent to landfill sites decreases, reducing methane emissions.

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN PEOPLE RECYCLE?

Materials are converted into new products, reducing the need to consume natural resources, which will help to protect natural habitats for the future.

WHAT CAN BE RECYCLED?

All colors of glass, plastics #1 & #2 (bottles & jugs), aluminum, tin, and steel beverage and food cans, newspapers, cardboard, paper, paper/paperboard cans, and magazines. NO plastic bags or styrofoam.

WHERE TO RECYCLE?

Zionsville has several locations for recycling in the area. Here is a list of some of the most frequently used recycling centers:

• Clean Earth: 6011 W 96th St.

• Boone County Resource Recovery Systems Inc: 985 US-421

• RecycleForce: 1255 Roosevelt Ave.

• Worman’s Clean Fill and Organic Recycling: 10150 Zionsville Rd.

future and use the PCR program locally.

“I feel like it’s a great way to give back to our community and develop new skills and connections,” Bohm said. “Hopefully, we will keep making connections and go far with this.”

Politicians leave their posts for countless reasons, although mostly because they come to realize that they are no longer likely to win reelection. Still, Ardern’s departure and the response to it points to a shifting reality in human ethic. What is our obligation to endure adversity? When should we quit to avoid burnout, stay to try to work it out, or double down and tough it out? Let us not work ourselves to death!

Still, if we are all smelling the roses, no one is left to tend them. Grit, resolve and fortitude help propel our species. We learn that we can do more than we believed. We find that our capacity is greater than expected — and we become better and stronger for it.

Happiest place on earth

The sun, the sand, all that’s a given for treating the Midwest winter blues. But what’s unique about her rental, and I think what really speaks to me, is that it’s essentially a senior living community in a small town already full of retirees.

I can wake up to the sounds of gulls and surf, walk miles of gorgeous coastline (slathered, of course, in SPF 70), and then maybe take an afternoon nap before a coffee date with my latest Nora Roberts novel. If I want to socialize, I can pop over to Janet’s and hear about the latest with her Cleveland grandchildren, and if I don’t, I can stay right on my swivel lounger and contemplate my mortality with the cast of “Grey’s Anatomy.” And no one is judging me, because they’re all doing the same thing.

So, most of the time there is no one in the heated pool, the beach is empty, and if there is music playing, it’s always low-volume yacht rock. Her neighbors are coming back from their 4 p.m. supper club reservations when I’d just be starting my Indiana dinner, and they’re going to bed right after “Jeopardy!” This, people, is my dream lifestyle.

The magnificent Gulf of Mexico, the quiet mornings and early nights, and, most important, the slow pace of retirement are clearly the ingredients for my happy place. Peace out.

A sea of misfortune in the Caribbean

ard said. “What were you doing?”

“I was channel surfing,” I told him.

SUN WILL BEAT ON IT. WINDS WILL RIP AT IT.

YOU’RE GONNA NEED SOMEONE WHO IS GOOD AT IT.

HUMOR

Mary Ellen and I just returned from a wonderful Caribbean cruise. No one wants to read a humor column about how much fun we had, so instead, I’ll put on my grumpy old man hat and describe everything that went wrong.

On Monday, we went snorkeling. It took an hour by catamaran to reach the reef, but the fish in St. Thomas must have seen us coming, because by the time we put on all of our gear and dove into the bay, there was nary a minnow in sight.

The guide tried to paint a rosy picture of our pricey excursion.

“Have you ever seen so many fish?” he asked.

I answered honestly, “Yes, on the wall of Red Lobster.”

Later, on the ship, one of my hearing aids stopped working.

“Which one?” Mary Ellen asked.

“Starboard side,” I said, but when I turned around to walk toward the lunch buffet, my broken hearing aid was now on the port side of my head. This created a real problem: Mary Ellen never knew which ear to yell into.

Getting on the elevator required a room card. I kept swiping mine, but the elevator door didn’t open. A fellow passenger watched.

“You’re scanning the hand sanitizer dispenser,” he told me.

One night, I carried the TV remote onto the veranda outside our room. The device slipped out of my hand when the ship rocked, and it landed in the Atlantic.

“That’s never happened before,” the stew-

Our room safe required us to choose a security code. I used our old house number. I must have entered it incorrectly when I programmed it, because I couldn’t unlock it with those same digits later that night. Panicked, I called the security desk.

“How did I get locked out of my own safe?” I asked.

“Aren’t you the guy who griped about the snorkeling, swiped the hand sanitizer with his key card and lost his remote in the Atlantic? Did you ever get your hearing aid fixed?”

Wow, word travels fast at sea.

On the way home, I went to the airport’s deli to get a bite to eat before boarding. All they had was a stale-looking chicken sandwich with wilted lettuce and slimy American cheese. I bought one, along with a bottle of water.

“That will be $25,” the cashier said.

“Twenty-five dollars? At Costco right here in San Juan, I could get five whole rotisserie chickens for $25!”

“Good luck fitting them under your seat, sir.”

Again, despite what you have read, I had a wonderful time. I especially liked our last glorious day in Puerto Rico. As David Letterman would have said, “It was 75 and sunny. Just like me.”

Mother Nature can be a real mother. Especially when it comes to roofs. That’s why you should consider a roof that stands the test of Father Time. Bone Dry. We’ve been around for over 30 years because we install roofs that last just as long. Nothing weathers the weather quite like a Bone Dry roof.

CSO to feature film composer Williams’ music

‘FOOTLOOSE’

“Footloose” runs through March 26 at Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre in Indianapolis. For more, visit beefandboards.com.

‘THE CAT IN THE HAT’

CONCERTS

The music of film composer John Williams is so popular that Carmel Symphony Orchestra Artistic Director Janna Hymes decided one concert wouldn’t be enough.

“The Best of John Williams — A Tribute Concert” will be presented at 7:30 p.m. March 11 and 3 p.m. March. 12 at the Palladium in Carmel. The concert is the Masterworks 4 concert of the 2022-23 season.

“In my understanding, the CSO has never performed the same Masterworks twice,” Hymes said. “We decided with the popularity of this concert, the draw would be great, and we want to give everyone the opportunity to hear this amazing music accompanied by film.”

The concerts’ playlist includes selections from some of Hollywood’s biggest hits, including “Star Wars,” “Hook,” “Schindler’s List,” “AI,” “Harry Potter,” “JFK,” “Jurassic Park,” “Superman,” “Jaws,” “Memoirs of a Geisha,” “E.T.” and “Raiders of the Lost Ark.”

“John Williams’ music has a distinctive sound and is easily recognizable because of the melodies, orchestration and connection to story,” Hymes said. “I have always been a fan of this iconic composer and incredibly kind human being.”

Hymes said the CSO has played Williams’ music on various concerts but not a concert designated solely to his work.

“I love them all, but I think ‘Schindler’s List’ is one of the most beautiful pieces in the repertoire,” Hymes said.

The concert will be accompanied by film clips from movies on the big screen.

“The film clips will correspond to the music, and the experience will be spectacular and a first for the CSO,” Hymes said. “We are so excited about these upcoming performances and anticipate a couple of fantastic crowds. We’ve really expanded and experimented with our programming during this 47th CSO season, and this John

Williams production is shaping up to be a highlight of a season that’s already been noteworthy for multiple highlights.”

The concerts will be performed on the same weekend that 91-year-old Williams, a five-time Academy Award winner, is up for another Oscar, his 53rd nomination, this time for the score to Steven Spielberg’s semi-autobiographical film, “The Fabelmans.”

“John Williams’ music is the soundtrack not only to some of Hollywood’s most iconic films, but the soundtrack to our lives as well,” Hymes said. “It’s the music you know and love, from the movies you know by heart.”

The Palladium was sold out for January’s Pops concert featuring Serpentine Fire: The Music of Earth, Wind & Fire, and was nearly sold out for two Holiday Pops

shows in early December.

“We definitely feed off the energy that emanates from the audience, and that’s been something we’ve experienced and really enjoyed this season,” Hymes said. “Serpentine Fire was just crazy with the fans standing, singing and dancing at their seats and in the aisles. If you think a symphony orchestra performance is stuffy and serious and straight-laced, well, you need to experience a Carmel Symphony Orchestra performance, and ‘The Best of John Williams’ would be a great place to start.”

The Masterworks 5 concert will feature Sterling Elliott on cello and is set for April. 22. The season concludes May 6 with a Pops concert featuring Capathia Jenkins with a tribute to Aretha Franklin.

Actor plays ‘The Cat’ for 4th time

Playing ‘The Cat’ is becoming old hat for Jonathan Studdard.

The Indianapolis resident plays the title role for the fourth time in Civic Theatre’s production of “The Cat in the Hat.”

“There are a lot of things that I enjoy about portraying the Cat,” Studdard said. “However, the thing that I enjoy most is the representation aspect. The fact that other children who are (persons of color) can see this show and see themselves reflected means the world to me.”

“The Cat in the Hat” will have public performances at 10 a.m. Feb. 28 and 10 a.m. and 2 p.m. March 4 at The Tarkington at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel. This will be the seventh time Civic has staged the Dr. Seuss classic. It was canceled in 2021 and 2022 because of the COVID-19 pandemic.

“Throughout the years, we all work with the same great foundation,” Studdard said. “However, different people bring different energy or action to the show.

ningham, who portrays the Boy, and myself are the only returning members of the show. So, it has been so fun to get to work and discover new moments to add to the show with a new group of people.”

In addition to the public shows, there will be nine student matinees.

The March 4 matinee is intended for patrons who have social, cognitive or physical challenges that create sensory sensitivities. An American Sign Language interpreter will be available.

IWS concert to feature harpist

Indiana Wind Symphony’s upcoming concert is aptly named “Sound the Harp.” Indiana Wind Symphony will feature its harp soloist Melissa Gallant at 7:30 p.m. March 4 at the Studio Theater at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel.

MUSIC

IWS Music Director Charles Conrad will conduct most of the concert. The guest conductor is flute player Laura Recendez.

Gallant will perform on Stephen Sondheim’s suite from “Invitation to a March.”

“It’s incidental music that was used from one of his plays,” Gallant said. “It’s a really cool piece. It has 10 sections in it. It’s very melodic.”

There also is a piece by Reynaldo Hahn called “Le Bal de Beatrice d’Este.”

“There is a piece about a beetle called ‘Scarab!’ with flute, bassoon and harp,” said Gallant, an Indianapolis resident who has been with IWS for 20 years. “I’m interested in seeing how that goes together. It should be a really fun piece.”

Conrad said the “Scarab!” is a world pre-

miere by composer David Sartor, who lives in Nashville, Tenn.

“We’ve done a couple other premieres of Sartor’s work,” Conrad said.

The final piece is “The Sword and the Stone,” by Benjamin Britten.

“It’s quite an assortment,” Gallant said. “The biggest harp solo part is from Sondheim, but they all have really big harp parts.”

Devouring classic Argentine fare

Recently, my wife and I were able to sneak away for about six days without the kids. Our destination? Argentina! We went to Buenos Aires for six days to enjoy the summer weather and to eat and drink our way through town! The city is very European, thanks largely to the massive European immigration that occurred just before, during and after World War I and World War II. The influence is apparent in architecture, civil planning, food and beverage culture, and fashion. It is often referred to as the “Paris of South America.”

While in Buenos Aires, we sampled two staple items of Argentine cuisine: empenadas and choripan. Empenadas are small hand pies. The dough used to make Argentine empenadas is similar to Neapolitan pizza crust. The dough is folded over filling and baked, not fried. Spicy sausage is a common filling and is typically a fennel-based pork sausage crumble (think mild Italian sausage) with tomato sauce and onion. Other common fillings included chicken, steak and simply Roquefort cheese. They are simple in nature and oh, so delicious! Especially with

an ice-cold Quilmes beer in hand.

Choripan is a very popular food in Buenos Aires. Some might say, unofficially, it is the official food of Argentinian soccer. It is simply a sausage (chorizo) in a hefty bread bun with chimichurri. It comes in many forms, with many variations of topping combinations. Good sausage and good bread are imperative.
