Zionsville Fire Dept. recently acquired four devices which will help firefighters perform CPR on patients. The PUBLIC SAFETY new devices, known as Lucas 3 chest compression devices, were unveiled Aug. 5. Lucas 3 provides chest compressions which meet the American Heart Association’s standards for CPR. According to a press release from the Town of Zionsville, the Lucas 3 reduces the risk to first responders and allows them to focus on other aspects of patient care. With the Lucas 3, CPR also can continue to be given to the patient while they are being moved. “It can be a challenge to maintain quality CPR to a cardiac arrest patient manually,” EMS Division Chief Steve Gilliam stated. “The
device provides quality, consistent CPR and allows for fewer pauses because of no longer having to switch rescuers. “Quality CPR cannot be done to a person in a moving ambulance. This device is designed for use while moving the patient, so the compressions are maintained no matter the situation.” The four devices cost a combined $73,000. Funding was provided by ZFD revenue from EMS ambulance transportation. The Zionsville Town Council approved the additional appropriation to fund the equipment at its July 15 council meeting. Each of the department’s frontline ambulances will receive one of the devices. The fourth device will be placed on a reserve ambulance which frequently covers special events, such as high school football games. All fire department shifts began training on the devices earlier this month.
The Boone County Highway Dept. closed 96th Street between Ford Road and Moore Road June 10 for resurfacing and safety improvements. Local access for residents will be maintained within the closure. The road temporarily re-opened to through traffic at the beginning of July. A second, full closure to thru traffic began in late July for a final road surface treatment. For more, contact the Boone County Highway Dept. at 765-482-4550. Zionsville Road remains closed for a reconstruction project involving the widening of a 1-mile section of the road, converting it from its current two-lane configuration to three lanes by widening the existing lanes and adding a center turn lane between Technology Center Drive and 106th Street. The project also includes adding a 10-foot, multi-use pathway along the entire length of the project on the west side of the road. There also will be a 10-foot, multi-use pathway on the east side of the road from Inglenook and Zionsville Cemetery north to 106th Street. The road is closed in order to minimize cost and project duration and is expected to continue through November. Local access for residents to and from homes and businesses will be from the north end of the project. No traffic will be permitted south of the Vonterra subdivision entrance. The Indiana Dept. of Transportation has announced a bridge rehabilitation project on the U.S. 421 Bridge over Little Eagle Creek between 121st and 131st streets. This project will restrict traffic to one 12-foot lane, which began April 29. Motorists will be controlled at the bridge with a traffic signal. Clarkston Road, the entrance into Coventry Ridge, has been closed by the Indiana Dept. of Transportation. This is to ensure safety as Clarkston Road is too close to the temporary traffic signal on Michigan Road to be a safe environment and most hours of the day drivers wouldn’t be able to break into the traffic queue. The work will be completed at the end of August.

Jerry Tang, with the help of his mother Michelle Yi and other troop members, moves art supplies into the closet.
Boy Scout Jerry Tang fondly remembers his time after school at the Boys & Girls Club of Boone County – Zionsville Unit. So, when it was time to plan an Eagle Scout project, he naturally thought of helping the club. In particular, he remembered how much everyone enjoyed creating art but how chaotic the art room was, with painting and other supplies stashed haphazardly around the room and supply closet. So, he set about to bring some order to the chaos. With the help of fellow Scouts from Troop 358, chartered by St. Alphonsus Catholic Church in Zionsville, Tang purchased new shelving for the classroom, assembled it and organized all of the art supplies. Tang is a senior at Zionsville Community High School.

I had a slight earache last week while working outside in a stiff wind. I’ve always been susceptible to earPLAIN TALK aches, especially during winter. I usually keep my head and ears covered in cold weather, so it’s not usually a big deal. When I do get afflicted, a cup of hot chocolate in front of the fireplace usually takes care of it. Come to think of it, most of my winter ills yield nicely to cocoa and a fire. Sometimes, I don’t bother to go outside at all. I just cut to the chase, fix a cup of chocolate and park in front of the fire. Why risk an earache just to shovel some snow? When I was a little kid, I got terrible earaches. The treatment back then was warm camphorated oil in the ear, held in place with a cotton ball. I liked the smell, too. Strong eucalyptus twang, like Vicks VapoRub. You can’t buy camphorated oil in the U.S. anymore. In 1980, the government outlawed it for safety reasons. I haven’t found out just what those reasons were. Maybe laboratory rats were allergic to it. Camphor, which is distilled from the camphor laurel tree, has a long history of medicinal uses. As early as the 11th century, it was commonly used to relieve skin irritations and itching. Ancient Egyptians used camphor in the
embalming process of mummies and it is still used in some embalming fluids. It also was used as an antibiotic during the 1855 cholera epidemic in Naples, Italy. Today, it has a myriad of uses, including as an ingredient in insect repellent, a cooking additive (it occurs naturally in rosemary), a flavoring in some candies and, strangely enough, as a rust preventer. I know guys who keep a block of camphor in their tool boxes to keep their tools from rusting. Interestingly, much of the camphor in use today is distilled from turpentine, a process that was pushed into use in the 19th century when Japan – which apparently has a lot of camphor trees – tried to create a camphor monopoly. A scientist named Gustav Komppa discovered he could create synthetic camphor from the stumps of pine trees. As for earaches today, there’s an array of eardrops available, with and without a prescription. One pediatrician studied the problem of childhood earaches and prescribed a better set of headphones. Seems a lot of headphones cause undue pressure on the ears. Ward Degler lives in Zionsville with his wife.

Some people always thought the cloud is just this white “thing” in the sky that provides shade, precipitation or TECH a beautiful sight to see. But then came technology and its “cloud.” That changed the perception a bit and confused us all. So, what is the cloud and why should you care about it? In a nutshell, the cloud is a vast network of servers and computers that have unique functionality and purpose to serve mankind with tasks such as streaming videos, delivering email, providing software services or social media, among other functions. So, instead of accessing files and data from a local computer, you’re accessing them online from any internet-capable device, and information is available anywhere you go and anytime you need it. The cloud has many variations, such as public, private and hybrid, but they all do almost the same thing: Deliver information when needed. The cloud is controlled and delivered by conglomerate cloud-computing providers such as Google, Amazon and Apple.
So, why should you care about the cloud? Well, you really don’t since you’re probably already using the cloud for your email, which was the first cloud application that ran on the internet. You just access the tools you need such as email, Facebook, YouTube and whatever you want and use out of the box without knowing or caring it is being run through the cloud. This approach saves consumers and businesses money and resources, allows for multi-device support, provides easy file and data sharing and accessibility with massive storage space. If one had to do what the cloud does on a massive scale, he or she would have to spend millions of dollars. Instead, we pay $19.95 for a subscription and get all we want or need without forking out a fortune. So, the cloud is cool and it’s here to stay.

Ava Durso, center, awaits a pass from Carissa Mayberry during a Cincinnati Play Day in June. (Submitted photo)
Field hockey, anyone? By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com A math class helped Ava Durso discover her favorite sport. Durso, a Westfield Middle SPORTS School seventh-grader, learned about the possibility of playing field hockey through Audra Heilman, her then-fifth-grade math teacher at Westfield Intermediate School. “I like how it’s a team sport and keeps you active,” Durso said. “I like how you can be a little rough but not too rough with it.” Heilman, a Noblesville resident who grew up in Easton, Pa., played field hockey at Indiana University with Indianapolis residents Gaby Olshemski (from Lehman, Pa.) and Danielle McNally (Ocean City, N.J.). When they all settled in the Indianapolis area, they formed the Crossroads Field Hockey Club. “Field hockey and sports led me to become a teacher, so I’m hoping to teach some of the skills I have and help the community even more,” said Heilman, a twotime All-American for the Hoosiers. Their mission is to grow the sport of field hockey in Indiana. “We are the first club team in the state,” Heilman said. Durso said she was the first of her friends to join. Two other friends from Westfield then decided to play on the club. The Southeastern Program of Recreation Team Sports, better known as S.P.O.R.T.S., in Fishers is still accepting registration for the field hockey recreation league for under-12 and under-16 teams this fall. Scott Spillman, S.P.O.R.T.S. executive direc-
tor, said for the first two years, the league has been permitted to accept players from outside of Fishers to help grow the sport. Clay Middle School seventh-grader Caroline Lafferty played in third and fourth grade before her family moved to Carmel. She was disappointed when she heard there wasn’t field hockey in Indiana. So, when Lafferty learned about the Crossroads Club, she joined. “It’s really fun to do because of the teamwork,” Lafferty said. “I like how there are different levels of skills you can use and air dribbling.” Lafferty’s mother, Jill, said it’s rewarding to watch the sport develop in Indiana. “As field hockey develops here in our state, the kids can just have fun and learn together without a ton of pressure,” Jill said. Olshemski said approximately 35 girls have been part of the program at one time or another. “The hardest part is getting people to show up because they don’t know what the sport is,” Olshemski said. “I went to an Indianapolis school and they didn’t know what it was, so I showed them a video of an Olympic game.” Olshemski said she is hoping Carmel Dads’ Club and Westfield Youth Sports Association will add leagues in the future. Another coach on the team is Molly McCue, a Zionsville resident and seventh-grade teacher at The Orchard School. McCue played at Denison University. Former IU player Karen Lorite also is a coach.

Call of duty COMMUNITY
By Jarred Meeks news@currentzionsville.com
He knows their room numbers, he knows their names and he knows approximately how long they have to COVER STORY live. Yet, Tom Schemmel introduces himself to the veterans at the Roudebush VA Medical Center as a candy striper without a skirt. “That way they smile and laugh. Some will say, ‘Well, go get a skirt!’” Schemmel said. Schemmel, a representative for the national VA veterans service for the Roudebush VA hospital and clinics, and others from The Knights of Columbus Council in Zionsville, visit veterans at the Roudebush VA Medical Center in Indianapolis as a part of the national Serving Those Who Serve veterans program to assist the men and women who served in the United States’ military any way they can. Schemmel and his group from Zionsville, which includes veterans and non-veterans, logged 842 volunteer hours in its first year participating in the program (2016). The following year, the group logged 2,220 volunteer hours and has maintained that rate. Schemmel, a U.S. Army veteran, served in Vietnam in 1963. He was unable to contact his wife for eight months. He flew back to the United State at the end of the year, but while catching a connecting flight in Hawaii, he was cautioned not to return to American soil wearing his uniform. Schemmel did not understand why until he spoke with some of his military friends who reported they were spit on and cursed at when they wore their uniform on arrival because of rising popular sentiment against the war. But the impact of the war did not stop there. “The thing that upset me so much was that my fellow veterans were coming back from Vietnam and 20 a day were killing themselves, suicide,” Schemmel said. Schemmel recalled that for years, Vietnam veterans were disrespected and often referred to as “baby killers.” But he and
other veterans have fought to change such perceptions by actively celebrating the lives and sacrifices of veterans. Conducting fundraisers for veterans is one of the ways he and his group helps. One of the group’s recent fundraisers
was a charity polo match, dubbed “Polo at Sunset,” July 19 at Hickory Hall Polo Club. Proceeds benefitted the United Service Organizations of Indiana and veterans programs, such as Schemmel’s. Schemmel now visits the VA Medical Cen-
SCHEMMEL’S EXPERIENCE IN PALLIATIVE CARE A year ago, Tom Schemmel visited a veteran who was unable to respond. During the visit, a chaplain came in. Schemmel took this as his time to leave, so he explained to the patient that the chaplain would pray for him, that he needed to go and he thanked him for his service. As Schemmel was leaving, a nurse approached him. She said the veteran had opened his eyes and was attempting to follow him with his gaze. Schemmel returned to the room to again thank the
man for his service, but the veteran could only meet his words with a silent stare. He was unresponsive otherwise. Schemmel left the hospital knowing the chaplain and the nurse were there to treat the man, but in time he began to think about the patient. One day Schemmel called someone he knew at the hospital to ask about him. They informed him the man died later that afternoon. “How does it affect me?” Schemmel said. “I just say, ‘Thank God for the opportunity.’”

ter to serve veterans under palliative care who do not have much time to live. He was specifically assigned to the role because he, in the eyes of VA officials, demonstrated a natural sensibility for the solemn task. Most veterans thank him for his time and appreciate the group’s efforts. “The guys that are rough are the ones that are in ‘comfort care,’” Schemmel said. “They are the ones that are in the bed, eyes closed, no response, shallow breathing, death is near, but you never know. So, I go in and I talk. “Basically, I’m talking to myself. I’m hoping they hear. I don’t know. And I spend time (with them).” “There are some people who have no one else, and no one should die alone,” said Geri Neita, director of communications at St. Alphonsus Liguori Catholic Church in Zionsville, where Schemmel’s Knights of Columbus Council is based.

LETTER Free school supplies?
Stay connected Commentary by Terry Anker Connected people are better. Sure, it is nice to have a friend who can get access to hot concert tickets before they go on sale. And it can be good to know someone with a strong Rolodex when it is time to get a private telephone number of someone who is particularly difficult to reach. But the best kind of connected people are basically those who link with others, not in a particularly spectacular or leveraged way, but in genuine interest and mutual friendship. They may not be two degrees away from the pope or the president. Yet, they take an interest in our lives. They know that we’ve had a bit of a cold lately. They know that we like chocolate ice cream but not strawberry. And they answer the phone whenever we call. They care. They have “connected” their lives to ours. They invest in the petty nuances that make each of us unique. Even the best among us only has so much of this quality to go around, so we have to watch its distribution. We keep jealous guard over what we share and what we ask, knowing that time is perhaps the most finite of all resources. These attachments seem minor, even inconsequential, until crisis, or change, or life, brings into focus the isolation that confronts us in the world alone. Families often matter little, until they are gone. Friends may have little use, until we find ourselves celebrating life alone. Colleagues and intellectual mates are superfluous, until we discover our ideas unchallenged. Isn’t it these connections that hold us together rather than hold us back? In an age of such polarization, tribalism and name-calling, our impulse is to disconnect. It’s understandable, but at what cost? Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC.

Reflections on self-reflection Commentary by Danielle Wilson Friends, I have returned. My grand adventure in Southeast Asia was a success, and even more important, it taught me a few things about myself. Here’s HUMOR what I learned: I have trouble going with the flow. This wasn’t exactly a revelation (just ask my husband Doo), but it reaffirmed the fact that I occasionally have a hard time summoning personal flexibility when plans go awry. A canceled flight, a suspicious taxi ride and a stolen wallet left me strung out on adrenaline and panic-induced paralysis. To my credit, I didn’t completely melt down, but in retrospect, I certainly didn’t handle my mini-crises with aplomb. I don’t need a man. Doo joined me for the first part of the trip, but I was solo for the last 12 days. I walked the streets of large cities at night, alone; managed to order food at restaurants, by myself, where English was not spoken; and exchanged money,
organized tours and stayed at questionable hotels, all without a guy by my side. I didn’t necessarily like being solo (seeing a dog carcass on a butcher’s block is a sharable moment), but I proved that I can. Girl power! I like small luxuries. I’m quite capable of traveling on a budget and fully understand that outside the U.S., things are exactly the same except entirely different. But abiding by the “Please don’t flush toilet paper of any kind down the pot” rule for almost three weeks is exhausting and disgusting and helped me to realize how often I take our modern American conveniences for granted. Also, democracy. I definitely have a new appreciation for democracy. Here’s to international experiences! Peace out.

QUOTE OF THE WEEK “Drama is life with the dull bits cut out.”
- Alfred Hitchcock
Editor, It’s back to school again and in July! What happened to summer vacation for students who need the time for summer jobs, visiting relatives, experiencing summer vacations with their families and just having time for themselves? The balanced school calendar which is also “year-round school,” affects all of us, whether we have children in school or not. Three examples are the moved-up dates for county fairs, the Indiana State Fair timing and the closing of public pools long before the summer heat is gone. Added to this scenario are the free handouts of new school supplies every year to students. My questions are: Are the students being taught to reuse their school supplies from the year before? Do the parents pass down outgrown supplies to younger siblings, such as backpacks? The bottom line is, why must the students be receiving free new supplies every year? I welcome an honest answer. Mari Briggs, Sheridan
Are the students being taught to reuse their school supplies from the year before?

What’s in a name? No way Commentary by Dick Wolfsie My brother, Peter, lives in New York. When he visits us, I’d love to take him to a popular local golf range in FishHUMOR ers, where I know he’d have fun driving golf balls onto giant dart boards. But I can’t take him there. I’ll explain why, keeping in mind this is a family newspaper. My friends Bob and Cathy gave me a gift certificate to this place for my last birthday and I was eager to try it out. I invited my son to join me there on Tuesday evening for dinner and a chance to practice our hooks and slices. The hostess guided us to an enclosed area with a café table next to a golf tee looking out on the range. Here, you can dine and whine about your golf shots. We registered as new members at a computer kiosk. Brett and I both signed in, then we took a couple of iron shots. Soon, it was time to order our dinner. But as soon as we opened our menus, the server approached us. “Mr. Wolfsie,” she said, “the manager would like to talk to you.” The manager approached and quietly asked if I was Mr. Wolfsie. I said “Yes,” with a smile, assuming he recognized me from TV. Truth is, he had no clue who I was. He said, “I am going to have to ask you to re-register using a different first name. This is a family friendly business and we like to ensure a wholesome environment. The registration form does not accept any profanity or vulgarities (author’s note: This story is 100 percent true.) I signed in again, this time as Richard Wolfsie, although I considered trying other names, just to see how many times I could be censored by a software program. Remember, my name is printed at the top of this column every week. I hope you’re not offended. If so, thanks for not reporting me. But back to my brother, Peter. Do you see why I can’t ever take him to this place to hit golf balls?

The survey influences new car buyers as the largest manufacturers in America vie for a share of the 17 million vehicles sold each year. This year, three South Korean brands topped the list, pushing out the perennial leaders from Europe, Japan, and the U.S. At the top of the list, Kia and Hyundai were joined by the Hyundai luxury brand Genesis. Hyundai has a minority ownership interest in Kia. The J.D. Power IQS is based on a measure of reported problems per 100 vehicles. The cars that qualify are 2019 models. Genesis took the top sport with 63, followed by Kia at 70 and Hyundai at 71. The industry average across the 32 brands was 93. This industry average remained unchanged from the previous year. Ford Motor did extremely well in the survey. Its flagship Ford brand scored fourth on the list with an 83. Source: 247wallst.com

ZCHS graduate Krejci to perform at Zionsville Alumni Association event By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com The event seems a natural fit for singer/ songwriter Michael Krejci. Krejci, a 1998 Zionsville ComMUSIC munity High School graduate, will perform at the Moontown Rhythm & Booze event from 7 to 10 p.m. Aug. 24 in the 1915 Room at Moontown Brewery, 343 S. Bowers St., Whitestown. The event is a fundraiser for the Zionsville Alumni Association. After graduating from Kenyon College in Ohio, Krejci moved to Nashville, Tenn. He has released three full-length albums. “My last album was the most commercial country that I released,” he said. “It had a more modern feel to it. My favorite is Americana or roots folk. I like acoustic.” Krejci is working on his fourth album. He said he plans to release it in 2020. He almost has enough songs to complete the album. “I perform as much as I can. It’s slowed down a little bit because I have released a lot of new music,” he said. “I do solo acoustic stuff to duo to full band, depending on the gig, budget and travel. I’ve enjoyed the quality of musicianship here. It’s just incredible from musicians to engineers to vocalists. It’s really an encouraging music community here.” Krejci has his own music agency, Divided Sky Entertainment, where he does talent buying and booking. “I work with festivals, casinos, theaters and I’ll provide them with entertainment,” Krejci said. “It’s a good way for me to network and meet other songwriters.” Krejci said he has performed since college in the Lincoln Park concert series and the Fall Festival in Zionsville. “I do some writers’ nights around Nashville where you might have three songwriters up on stage and you go around to the next one,” he said In addition to his own songs, Krejci plays covers during his performances. “I’ll cover a wide variety of genres for something like that,” he said. “I’ll do some

Beatles, John Fogerty, Glen Campbell. I’ll try to branch out and play something hopefully everyone will know.” Krejci has opened for the Goo Goo Dolls in Naperville, Ill., and opened for The Band Perry before a crowd of 12,000 in Kansas City. “It seems like my high school buddies have all returned to Zionsville,” he said. “They moved away, had kids and slowly moved back to Zionsville, so I should have a group of friends there.” Krejci, who played basketball and baseball at ZCHS, is familiar with Moontown since his 20-year high school reunion was held there last year. Proceeds from the event support ZAA projects. Tim Ottinger, a 1972 ZCHS graduate, said it’s always good to provide an event when old friends get together. “It’s for alumni, teachers, retired teachers, whomever,” he said. “We want to raise funds for the annual $1,000 scholarship. One of the things we are trying to tackle is a searchable data base for Zionsville
alumni. We’ve started but it has a long way to go.” Ottinger and Jim Haines, a fellow 1972 graduate, are co-chairs of the event. “We started the scholarship program in 2007 and every year we have given a scholarship. It’s been $1,000 most years and we’d love to be able to increase that moving forward,” said Haines, a founder of ZAA. “It started out as $500 the first two years. It goes to a graduating high school senior. The purpose of the Alumni Association is to create camaraderie among Zionsville students.” The ZAA conducts all-class reunions and helps with the Soaring Eagle Hall of Fame. Tickets for the event are available on ZAA’s website, zionsvillealumni.org, or at Zionsville Eyecare, 1375 Parkway Dr. Tickets are $35 for ZAA members and $40 for non-members. Krejci’s music is available on iTunes, Spotify and Amazon. CDs are sold on his website, MKNashville.com, and he will have some for sale at his performance.

CYT show gets IndyFringe spot By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com The latest Christian Youth Theater presentation offers a treat for parents as well as their children. “This show has been a MUSICAL blast to put together because it is such a small cast. It’s a new experience to get closer with my fellow castmates and directors while bringing everyone back to their childhoods,” Westfield High School junior Ellye Tibbets said. Christian Youth Theater is presenting “Schoolhouse Rock Live! Fringe Edition” for the Aug. 15 to 25 IndyFringe Festival. The show is based on the Emmy-winning Saturday morning educational cartoon series. The 10-student cast includes five Carmel residents, Christian Baltz, Grace Kubek, Natalie Kern, Lillian Williams and Kate Smith. Other members include Abigail Drake, Westfield; Hannah Doran, Zionsville; Bridget Tuttle, Indianapolis; and Trey Weger, Fishers. Baltz said he watched the show when he was younger. “My dad has the DVD boxed set and my brother and I used to watch them in the car,” Baltz said. Doran, a Zionsville Community High

School sophomore, said she hasn’t been in a show like this before. “It’s so many shows coming together,” she said. “I watched the videos in school when I was younger. I really like ‘Elbow Room’ and ‘Unpack Your Adjectives.’” Weger, a Fishers High School freshman, said the production involves everyone. “It’s super fun and we get to hang out as a class,” Weger said. There are six performances at the Murat Shrine Center, 501 N. New Jersey St., Indianapolis. For a schedule, visit indyfringe.org.
Pearce to join Aldean on tour By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Carly Pearce has been on a dizzying pace the last several months. “It’s been the craziest year CONCERT because I’m juggling a lot of different things. I’ve been on tour 95 percent of my life. I’m planning a wedding, I’m finishing an album and getting married,” said Pearce, who is marrying fellow country singer Michael Ray later this year. Pearce is one of the opening performers for Jason Aldean’s “Ride All Night Tour,” which includes Kane Brown. The tour stops at Ruoff Home Mortgage Music Center in Noblesville at 7:30 p.m. Aug. 23. “Jason is super sweet and very welcoming,” Pearce said. “I don’t feel like I could be on a bigger tour. Jason is at the top of his game, and honestly, Kane Brown is a headlining act in his own right.” Pearce was greeted by a bouquet of flowers from Aldean before the start of the tour. “It’s nice to get a nod from Jason that he feels I’m the right artist to open his show,” she said. “It makes his fans aware of me and pay attention to me probably more than they would elsewhere. I feel very lucky to

be able to do that.” Pearce is completing work on her second album. The first single, “Closer to You,” was released in November 2018. “It parallels exactly where I am in my life, meeting my fiancé and getting married later this year and all of that stuff,” Pearce said. Pearce said her attitude is “the best song wins for me.” Pearce has previously toured with Blake Shelton, Luke Bryan and Rascal Flatts. “It benefits me where I am in my career to be aligned with people like Jason Aldean,” she said. “It helps me make my headlining shows more successful because people are seeing those tours.”

GreekFest celebrates culture
UPCOMING CONCERTS
By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com GreekFest always has a dual purpose. “Fun is definitely part of it, but we would love for everyone to learn about Greek culture and our Orthodox faith,” FESTIVAL GreekFest President Christopher Lafter said. “Going back to the first festival in 1973, it’s been our goal to welcome our friends, family and the central Indiana community into the Holy Trinity community to share our culture and faith.” The 46th annual Indy GreekFest will run Aug. 23 to 25 at the Holy Trinity Greek Orthodox Cathedral, 3500 W. 106th St., Carmel. Holy Trinity held its first service on Christmas Eve 2008 and held its first GreekFest in 2009. Before 2009, Greekfest was held elsewhere. “We want (visitors) to enjoy the food, the music and have a good time,” Lafter said. “It’s a lot of work but a lot of fun because everybody always enjoys sharing our food and our faith with the visitors.” Lafter had been in charge of the festival’s Grecian grills for several years before becoming president this year. Lafter, an Indianapolis resident, said the festival is, for the first time, partnering with

the Children’s Museum of Indianapolis because it has an Ancient Greece exhibit. The Children’s Museum is a sponsor and is providing activities for the children’s booth. As customary, several dance troupes of varying ages will perform traditional Greek dances throughout the day. However, a new feature is the young adult group will offer Greek dancing lessons between performances. “We’re going to have people throughout the grounds dressed in traditional Greek clothing,” Lafter said. “There will be people in togas and ancient Greece warriors.” Festival proceeds go to the church for various missions, Lafter said. Lafter estimates the average combined attendance for the three-day festival is 12,000 to 15,000.
Lehman to showcase work By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Gabriel Lehman is taking a break from his hectic painting schedule for an annual important date. Lehman is a longtime feaARTIST tured artist at the Carmel International Arts Festival, which is set for Sept. 28-29. “It’s always a good show for us and we enjoy our local clients,” Lehman said. “We get a lot of repeat customers. It’s always been very beneficial. I can’t imagine going a year without doing this show.” Lehman will have 30 square feet of wall space in his light-domed tent. “Having the right tent has always been very important for us,” Lehman said. “Making sure, rain or shine, we are always going to be in business.” Lehman said he brings anywhere from 20 to 35 pieces, depending on their size. “I do illustrated surrealism,” Lehman said. “A lot of people say it looks like it walked out of a movie. It’s very character heavy. These are humanoid characters I’ve created. There is not a lot of earth involved in my pieces. It’s predominantly clouds.”
Gabriel Lehman’s painting, “Traveling Through the Treetops,” will be on display at the Carmel International Arts Festival. (Submitted photo)
Lehman, who had previously lived in Noblesville for several years, works from his home studio in Nineveh. Lehman, 42, and his wife, Jamie, selfpublished a book, “Splat/Kitty Calamity.” Jamie did the writing and Lehman did the illustrating. Shelby County Reads awarded it Book of the Year. The couple is now working on a textbooksize art book called “Paper Airplanes.” Each page has a poem. The book’s release is tentatively set for June 2020. The launch will be on the thirdfloor gallery at Saks Fifth Avenue at The Fashion Mall at Keystone in Indianapolis. For more or to volunteer for CIAF, visit carmelartsfestival.org.

Blueprint for Improvement: Resort-style living in Carmel Commentary by Larry Greene
Before
Background: This home was built in 2004 in Carmel’s Valley Brook neighborhood. The owners bought the home and remodeled the exterior and interior before moving in.
THE CHALLENGE The owners were drawn to the home’s expansive backyard, lined with a small creek and beautiful trees. They wanted to create more space to enjoy the outdoors for swimming, grilling and spending time with friends and family.
After
THE SOLUTION A pool framed by an all-new outdoor living area make for a breathtaking backyard. 1. A new covered pavilion and storage structure were constructed in an Lshape, just off the existing sunroom. 2. Stacked stone accents surround the seating and entertaining area. The spacious granite countertop has a curved edge for ample, comfortable seating. 3. Infrared radiant heaters mounted to the stained pine ceiling allow the outdoor space to be enjoyed in the cooler months. 4. The homeowners selected gray pavers for the pool decking and patio. The home’s exterior was repainted for a perfectly polished result. To get started on your own remodeling project, visit us at caseindy.com or stop by one of our three locations.

Does it matter which ladder? Commentary by Curtis Honeycutt
The Opera House and Harbour Bridge in Sydney, Australia. (Photo by Don Knebel)
Glance at Sydney Harbour Bridge Commentary by Don Knebel The Sydney Harbour Bridge stands alongside the famed Opera House as symbols of Sydney, Australia. Residents TRAVEL once doubted that the bridge, dubbed the Coat Hanger for its shape, was safe. Now, they can climb it lawfully. Sydney began as an English prison colony on the south side of Sydney Harbour in an area called the Rocks. In 1815, an English architect sent to Sydney for forgery proposed a bridge connecting the Rocks to the north shore of the harbor. Nothing came of that or similar proposals floated during the next 100 years. At the end of World War I, the government of New South Wales approved building a bridge across the harbor using a so-called “through arch” design inspired by New York City’s Hell Gate Bridge. In such a design, abutments at the bases of the lower arches support the entire weight of the bridge, but local residents were skeptical that such a design would be safe. To gain public confidence, the builders added four concrete and granite pylons atop the
abutments, whose only function was ornamental. Before the bridge opened in 1932, 96 steam locomotives stood-end-to-end on the bridge’s four railroad tracks to confirm its structural integrity. The bridge now carries 160,000 vehicles a day on its eight traffic lanes. The apex of the bridge is 440 feet above the water of Sydney Harbour. That height, combined with the design of the bridge, provided an irresistible, but illegal, temptation to daredevils wanting to demonstrate their climbing skills and prove their bravery. Authorities responded in 1998 by offering the world’s first supervised bridge-climbing experience. The three-hour climb to the top and back has become popular among tourists and residents alike. Four thousand marriage proposals have occurred at the top of the Sydney Harbour Bridge, along with many weddings. Don Knebel is a local resident who works for Barnes & Thornburg LLP.

DISPATCHES Orange oil for mood — Need a mood or energy boost? Sniff an orange. Studies have shown that orange essential oil helps boost mood and alertness and can reduce anxiety.

Trimming tall grasses — Large ornamental grasses can be daunting to trim back each fall. Make the job quicker and smoother by wrapping a bungee cord around each clump of grass before pruning. The cord will neatly collect the clippings, making them easier to move away from the area when you’re done. Source: BobVila.com
Do you want to work your way from the mailroom to the corner office? I’ll give you some swell GRAMMAR GUY advice that’ll have you drinking goldleafed martinis quicker than you can say “Scrooge McDuck doing the backstroke in a roomful of golden coins.” First thing’s first: We need to clear up the common confusion between latter, ladder and later. A ladder is a thing your leaf butler climbs to clean out your gutters. It’s a tool with a series of horizontal bars called “rungs” that extend upward on affixed, parallel, vertical poles. I assume you understand this, so it’s time to move on. Latter and later are a bit more confusing. Not only are the two words one “t” apart in spelling, but their meanings are similar enough to make this pair bewildering to many. “Later” is an adverb that means “after, or subsequent to, the present time.” For example: I planted some marigold seeds in my window planter box. A few weeks later, I had bright orange flowers blooming.
Latter is an adjective that means “happening at or toward the end of an activity.” It also indicates the second of two things or people that were previously mentioned. Given the option between a Nickelback CD or a puppy, all of your co-workers would prefer the latter as a birthday present. Don’t be the lady who gives Nickelback CDs to people for their birthdays; instead, be the puppy-giving co-worker. Furthermore, don’t show up to a meeting later than the posted time. Instead, get there five minutes early. Bosses appreciate promptness, which is a sign of respect for their time. When it comes to climbing the corporate ladder, these tips can get you far toward your goal. In addition, having good grammar will make you more popular than the lady who gives out hypoallergenic birthday puppies.
