DOVETAIL GROUP INTERIOR DESIGN AND HOME REMODELING FIRM Story Provided & Photo by Amy Payne
In 2015, Kayla Stauffer and Liz Curtis formed Dovetail Group after seeing the need in the marketplace for a comprehensive design solution that blended both interior remodeling, as well as furnishings, decor and overall styling of a home. The team has diverse capabilities when it comes to project scope in that they can take on residential remodels, new build construction and fullscale commercial projects. Liz and Kayla met and worked together at a home remodeling firm that focused primarily on kitchens and baths. Early in their careers, both noticed the industry was dominated by remodeling companies that put construction before design and style. Liz, whose background is in finish and fixtures selections and custom home furnishings and décor, started her own firm, while Kayla, whose background is in interior design, space planning and construction management, opened her own firm. “My clients needed help with furniture and décor, and her clients needed help with structural modifications, so we ‘dovetailed’ our companies together. That’s how we came up with the name Dovetail Group,” Kayla explains. Together, Liz and Kayla had a unique idea to disrupt the home remodeling industry in a few very important ways. First, Liz and Kayla wanted to combine forces and form a woman-owned business to appeal to their female customers. They focus on the design
first, finalize all the details and then turn projects over to their trusted independent contractors to perform the construction. Budgeting is of the utmost importance which is why they offer itemized pricing of all of the materials and furnishings that are involved in a design project rather than providing a lump sum price with no detail. These changes allow Dovetail Group to manage the process while adhering to budgets and advocating for their clients throughout the process.

“We don’t just create a beautiful space,” Liz says. “We make a beautiful space that fits their budget.” “We found a need in the market for fullservice design, which involves taking a project through not only the remodeling element but also the furnishings and decor,” Kayla adds. “It’s giving people a comprehensive design solution and ensures that whatever we do will go with the rest of the home.” As Dovetail Group grew, Brad Horn joined the group as an architectural designer and has elevated the customer experience by utilizing 3D renderings and detailed construction drawings throughout the design process. “Those 3D renderings of spaces and all the different design options, in combination with seeing all the finishes in person, gives people the reassurance they need to make that investment in their home,” Kayla adds. Elizabeth Stewart joined the team last TownePost.com TownePost.com / APRIL / APRIL 20222022 / BOONE / CARMEL COUNTY MAGAZINE MAGAZINE / 19/ 3
CONNECT year as Design Coordinator, to help manage and communicate the ever-changing production timelines caused by COVID-19 supply chain issues. “There are hundreds of items that need to be ordered and managed throughout our process. Keeping our homeowners in the loop is very important to us,” Liz says. “We are grateful every day to our wonderful clients who have entrusted us with their homes. We live and breathe to have relationships with a home and the people in it,” the Dovetail Group Team says. Dovetail Group is located at 600 East Carmel Drive, Suite 230 in Carmel, IN.

WAVE ORGANIZATION BENEFITS WESTERN BOONE STUDENTS Writer / Matt Keating Photography Provided
Angie Moody, director of WAVE (We All Value Each Other), a new nonprofit organization based in Thorntown whose members hope to benefit Western Boone County Community School Corporation students, says the program is wonderful for the area. “The program serves students from kindergarten through 12th grade, and focuses on providing after-school activities, educational support and healthy meals,” Moody says. “WAVE will help students bridge any gaps in their education, give them a place to participate in opportunities that might not be available to them elsewhere, and encourage students to success in all their individual efforts.”
Moody, who is also vice president of the WAVE board, notes that there are different ways people can get involved, and volunteers are needed.
after school in August with the beginning of the school year,” Moody says. The Western Boone Future Farmers of America chapter helped WAVE last December by sweeping, mopping and scrubbing floors. They also washed windows, moved supplies to the storage closet, picked up donations including tables and chairs, and carried large and small items up the stairs.
“We will need volunteers to help with individual programs that we may be offering, so they can join us on days that WAVE will be open to students after school,” Moody says. “They can possibly help with meals. Donations and monetary support will be also be helpful as we develop and the program grows.” Moody can’t wait to get WAVE started and moving in the right direction. WAVE, which also goes by “Catch the WAVE” on Facebook, is scheduled to start “WAVE is here to make an impact in our soon. students’ lives and our community,” Moody says. “We are looking forward to opening WAVE is located at 101 West Main Street in our doors this spring, hosting programs Thorntown.

FOR THE KIDS
WAM OF ADVANCE PROVIDES A SAFE AND CARING ENVIRONMENT
Writer / Matt Keating Photography Provided
We All Matter (WAM) of Advance, an afterschool program for students in kindergarten through 12th grade, has proven to be a safe and caring environment for many Western Boone students in the Jamestown community.
“We are a direct outreach of Old Union Church in rural Jamestown, where my wife and I copastor, and we are now four years old,” he says. “We meet in the fully renovated second floor of the Advance town building on Mondays and Wednesdays from 2:45 to 4:30 p.m. We offer a hot meal, crafts, music, recreation and a reading corner, as well as a five-station computer center.” The program has proven to be highly popular.
It’s a place where kids can have fun, and also feel like they are a part of something special.
Other fun activities have included a Nacho Day, a WAM fourth birthday celebration, and a Valentine’s Day party featuring cards, pancakes, sausages, cupcakes and ice cream.
Ed Charlton, WAM board president, says kids in the program know they matter.
WAM leaders also provided other fun holiday celebrations during the Thanksgiving and

Christmas holidays. In the past, the kids have also made get-well cards, sang karaoke, enjoyed pizza and great snacks, and helped each other with fun drawing and dance activities. WAM also helps many kids in the area who are in need of assistance. “We consider ourselves important to reach into a community where kids are often overlooked, and have few social opportunities and need some extra care,” Charlton says. “We are open to all students in the Western Boone school district, from grades K through 12, as well as home-schooled students.” For more information, call 765-676-5608 or visit facebook.com/wamadvance.

As a business owner in the highly-competitive beauty industry, you must look your very best, display confidence and be comfortable with your unique presentation. Of course, that is a high expectation and Dolcie knew 16 / BOONE COUNTY MAGAZINE / APRIL 2022 / TownePost.com
Here’s why. Our previous articles explained Dr. Springhetti’s approach to a healthy, natural
and beautiful smile and overall dental health. Although every patient has a unique and personal issue, the steps needed to design the treatment plan and perfect that plan is routine for every patient.
CLINICAL STEPS TREATMENT PLAN
COMMUNICATION THE GOLDEN RULE OF RELATIONSHIPS
From discussions with Dolcie, her history and his examination, Dr. Springhetti knew why Dolcie was not happy with her smile. He could see the areas of concern that were causing Dolcie’s discomfort and disappointment with her smile. Dolcie knew something was wrong but could not fully explain the problems that Dr. Springhetti could see or deduce. Dolcie did not have a naturally aesthetic smile. But why?
Dolcie recalls feeling comfortable and hopeful when she first met the clinical staff. Dr. Springhetti took his time to listen carefully to Dolcie’s story and her vision of a smile. This extra time and consideration made her even more comfortable and confident that Springhetti Dentistry was the right choice for her. Feeling confident is an important motivator for most professionals. Dolcie recalls trusting Dr. Springhetti simply because he was able to show results with other patients and took the time to understand not only her problems but her vision. Dr. Springhetti completed his interview and examination and completed his initial assessment. “Dolcie, I’ll see you in two weeks,” he said. Some patients may think two weeks is too long between consultation and presentation. Not Dolcie. She appreciated and commented that taking this time was reassuring to her because she knew he was doing the research, spending time identifying problems, formulating solutions and identifying the right materials to make her healthy and happy if she made a choice to go forward with the treatment plan.
COMMUNICATION UNDERSTANDING AND SUPPORT The women at Springhetti Dental have a special place in Dolcie’s heart. Dolcie recalls that there was always someone there to re-assure her, support her when necessary and say a kind word or encouragement at the right time. It didn’t take long for the bond between professionals and patients to embrace Dolcie. The ladies and Dr. Springhetti became part of her family. Close and comforting.
Two weeks. Appointment time. Greeting from Erika at the front desk. A short wait. Then on to Dr. Springhetti’s office.
Although Dolcie had seen many dentists since 2005, they were unable to identify the problems she was trying to describe. Sometimes it seemed like she was asking for the impossible. Dolcie noticed a difference at Springhetti Dentistry. Dolcie was pleased that Dr. Springhetti paid attention to her story, her clinical history and she noted that small details were not lost. Dr. Springhetti noted them and considered them in future treatment. After discussion and examination, and as a cosmetic dentist, Dr. Springhetti could see her areas of concern in scientific and cosmetic terms. But he also realized that although he could have resorted to detailed explanations and scientific terms, what was needed to solve this problem was creating trust and confidence with Dolcie. He needed to give Dolcie the confidence to trust his training and his passion for the art of cosmetic dentistry.
Dolcie Do smile makeover
Makeover. In order to get to that step, Dr. Springhetti and Dolcie reviewed a treatment plan that included: • Gum treatment to correct gum level • Removal of wisdom teeth which were interfering with her natural bite • Comprehensive Bite Adjustment • Removal of her unaesthetic crowns and • Restoration with new Porcelain Crowns with the correct shape, contour, and color to meet Dolcie’s specifications.
Comprehensive care and cosmetic dentistry may require longer treatment times. Springhetti Dentistry takes a patientcentered approach to comprehensive care. By listening to and observing the patient throughout treatment, treatment can proceed at a pace aligned with the patient’s wishes. The staff is quite good at judging and discussing the pace of treatment with their patients. Of course, the kind words from the women in the office helped keep Dolcie’s spirits up. After all, she was committed to finally having the smile she wanted since she began treatment in 2005 with other providers. It was a long journey. While in the treatment chair, Dolcie realized Smile makeovers have become increasingly that the team at Springhetti Dentistry was sophisticated over the years. Dr. the right choice.

WellBridge Surgical is disrupting the healthcare model for surgery in Indiana. The country’s second-ever cash-pay surgery center offers Hoosiers fixed and transparent pricing for surgery. Local business owner Jeff Williams noticed the cost of health care was rising tremendously for his small business. Williams didn’t want to increase his deductible for his employees, nor did he want to increase his rates by a high margin. Instead, Williams partnered with longtime friends Dr. Ron Piniecki and Dr. Eric Inman, both anesthesiologists, to revolutionize the way patients pay for their surgical care. The fixed payment method means patients know their all-in total cost for surgery prior to the procedure and don’t receive a surprise bill in the mail. Pricing includes the facility charge, surgeon fee and anesthesiologist fee. Patients pay a one-time consultation fee of $150 that is credited to the cost of the surgical procedure.

Not only is the pricing up-front and transparent, but patients also pay, on average, 30% to 60% less than they would at other facilities in Indianapolis. Williams says WellBridge can offer their patients TownePost.com 2022 DIRECTORY / APRIL 2022 AND/ RELOCATION BOONE COUNTY GUIDE MAGAZINE / 23 / 21
those savings by not adding hidden facility fees. For instance, the WellBridge cost for ear tubes is $2,380, while the Indianapolis average is $6,804. WellBridge Surgical offers general surgery, orthopedics, gynecology, otolaryngology, urology, podiatry, and gastroenterology procedures. Patients contact WellBridge and are paired with a surgeon based on their specific surgical needs. The prices of surgical procedures are listed on the WellBridge Surgical website. The patient will know their total cost immediately. “Dr. Piniecki and Dr. Inman have worked at some of the biggest hospital systems, so they know most of the surgeons in Indianapolis,” Williams says. “We’ve partnered with some of the best surgeons in the city.” “Our first surgical patient was a smallbusiness owner,” Williams says. “He and his wife were so thankful to find us. They have insurance but they never knew what they would pay for care. It made us feel like we were proving our theory right.” Hoosiers pay the fourth-highest surgical costs nationwide according to a 2020 RAND Corporation study. WellBridge aims to make a difference with the uninsured, individuals with high-deductible insurance plans, and those with self-funded plans.
HATCHING NEW LIFE IN DOWNTOWN ZIONSVILLE COHATCH TO OPEN THIRD INDIANAPOLIS-AREA LOCATION Writer / Megan Arszman Photographer / Jon Ellegood
entrepreneurs and nonprofits find a space of their own in a professional location, while also providing a place for the community to gather.
A new kind of life is being breathed into Main Street with the opening of COHatch’s third Indianapolis-area location. Founded in “The goal is to create spaces where people Columbus, Ohio, COHatch is an integrated can work, meet and live,” says Olivia space that allows for small businesses, Ortmann, the Zionsville COHatch community leader. “We want this location to be comfortable for people to do their day-to-day work for their businesses, while becoming more like their own space.”
The premise behind COHatch is to offer private offices, large co-working spaces and a unique aspect to each location. Every location is different, with Zionsville’s location serving as the home to North High Brewing’s first Indianapolis-area location. North High Brewing is a brewpub based out of Columbus, Ohio, that has partnered with COHatch on other Ohio locations. The Zionsville location will offer a large patio, serve lunch and dinner, and will be open on weekends, later this spring. “It’ll be a family-friendly, affordable spot on 22 / BOONE COUNTY MAGAZINE / APRIL 2022 / TownePost.com
Main Street, which will add a lot of life to the corner,” Ortmann says. The Zionsville COHatch is based in the old Nancy Noel building at 75 North Main Street, featuring 10,000 square feet of space. The design team worked to complement the beloved architecture with stained glass windows while adding some fresh, modern touches. “Our design team does a great job of keeping the local feel to something, while bringing a new and fresh design,” Ortmann says. The building will feature 26 private offices available for memberships, three different meeting rooms that can fit about six people each, plus a larger co-working space on the lower level that can seat about 40 to 50 people. The larger space can be reserved for after-hours by members as well as nonmembers. The community is invited to host events at the facility, even without a monthly membership. For example, if a group is in need of a meeting space once per
month, the meeting rooms or co-working space can be booked at an hourly rate. As a membership perk, members are given three hours of facility rental per month, allowing family gatherings and celebrations to be hosted there. “We’re parents, family and friends, and we’re active in our community, so we want to see this space as a collective share of resources,” Ortmann says. “We’re really hoping to strengthen the community while improving people’s lives, and equip them to be greater.” An official opening of the Zionsville COHatch and North High Brewing will be held later this spring. To find out more or to see a virtual tour of the Zionsville location, visit indianapolis.cohatch. com or email Ortmann at olivia@cohatch.com.

SET FOR STARDOM LEBANON’S CHASE WRIGHT IS SHINING BRIGHT IN THE COUNTRY MUSIC WORLD
Writer / Seth Johnson Photos / Jason Myers, Austin Friedline and Lebanon High School
Like many artists, country musician Chase Wright’s career had somewhat of a humble beginning.
Tennessee, Wright released his debut album “Intertwined” in 2021, which has seen a great deal of success. Recently named a “Spotify Hot Country Artist to Watch” for 2022, the Lebanon native is set to perform at CMA Fest in Nashville this June alongside some of the biggest names in country music.
“My dad surprised me with a $20 garage sale guitar that was kind of broken,” Wright A graduate of Lebanon High School, Wright says. “He was like, ‘You’ve mentioned that credits both of his parents with getting him you wanted to start learning guitar, so here’s into music at a young age. this. If you learn it then we’ll get you a better one.’ ” “My mom went to school for music education so she always wanted me to be Now making a career in Nashville, in band and stuff like that,” Wright says. “I TownePost.com / APRIL 2022 / BOONE COUNTY MAGAZINE / 25
think I get a lot of my musical influences, though, from my dad. I have fond memories growing up of him showing me videos of Keith Urban playing live, and those 10-minute guitar solos that he’d rip on.” After graduating from high school, Wright moved on to DePauw University, where he studied economics. He realized quickly that a sedentary office lifestyle wasn’t for him. “I went to college for economics, so corporate life was always the move,” Wright says. “Then once I got there I was like, ‘I cannot do this - it’s just not for me. I feel like I have so much untapped potential.’ ”
With this in mind, Wright started putting Wright’s hard work paid off fast after his more energy into music, building an online current manager Rob Filhart stumbled fanbase by posting videos of himself playing. across one of the videos he’d posted.
Filhart was indeed legitimate and has since helped Wright take his music career to the next level.
“I started researching social media marketing and different things like that,” Wright says. “I was trying to figure out how to get my music off the ground without the severe overhead of moving locations physically. I just started learning how to post effectively and I posted all the time. I was really grinding at it.”
“There was obviously a lot to learn - just going through the steps of learning the industry, taking it day by day and going through all the trials that come with being a new artist,” Wright says. “But my team is top-notch. I could not imagine a better team and that really is what makes the difference.”
“He hit me up and I thought it was kind of fake at first,” Wright says. “I had heard all these horror stories about people being taken advantage of in music, so I dismissed it. He followed up with me again and then a third time. Then I was like, ‘OK, this dude is pretty persistent.’ I reached back out, we got to talking and he seemed legitimate.”
26 / BOONE COUNTY MAGAZINE / APRIL 2022 / TownePost.com
In addition to the dedication of his team,
Wright is also grateful for the support his family has given him through the years. “I definitely would not be able to do what I’m doing without them and their endless support throughout this journey,” Wright says of his family. “Doing music is not easy. Having your parents and family be your biggest fans since day one really, really does help.” Released last November, “Intertwined” has racked up millions of plays on Spotify. Featuring songs like “Drive,” “Wish You’d Miss Me” and “Why Should We,” the album is a proper introduction to Wright’s popcountry sound. “It’s something I’m super proud of,” Wright says. “There’s so much work that goes into creating a record, and I took it upon myself to take on a lot of responsibility with that.” Since releasing the album, Wright says he’s savored all the moments seeing fans singing
“THERE’S SO MUCH WORK THAT GOES INTO CREATING A RECORD, AND I TOOK IT UPON MYSELF TO TAKE ON A LOT OF RESPONSIBILITY WITH THAT.” CHASE WRIGHT
along to songs from “Intertwined” at his concerts. “Obviously I love it or I wouldn’t have put it out,” Wright says. “It’s so inspiring to see other people love it too. I’m starting to play shows now and get out on the road. Seeing people be so passionate about your music and sing it back to you is something that never, ever gets old.”
TownePost.com / APRIL 2022 / BOONE COUNTY MAGAZINE / 27
With more live shows on the horizon, Wright also says he’s currently in the midst of working on new music. “Now we’re working on the second project,” Wright says. “We’re not really sure what that’s going to look like necessarily, but we’re going in to record more songs. Those will hopefully be out in the summer some time.”

FIFTH ANNUAL VIKING FEST RETURNS TO WHITESTOWN Writer / Christy Heitger-Ewing Photography Provided
Several years ago a brewery in an Indiana town hosted a Viking festival that attracted a respectable crowd. Over time its popularity grew so much that the organizers needed to find another location that could accommodate the crowd. When the Parks and Recreation staff of Whitestown were approached about hosting, they were intrigued by the idea. “We were looking for an opportunity to bring a unique event to Whitestown,” says Kim Heffner, director of public relations for the Town of Whitestown. No doubt it is a unique event, as the three-day festival is all about celebrating Viking culture. This means that there are fighting reenactments, in addition to archery, axe throwing, fire juggling, a Viking village, and the chance to meet live wolves. Alexa Lingg, events coordinator for Viking Fest, is happy to see TownePost.com / APRIL 2022 / BOONE COUNTY MAGAZINE / 31
how eager people are to not only attend the event, but also to participate as either vendors or entertainers. Held at Anson Acres, a 15-acre park, Viking groups come from all over the region including Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan and Illinois. Many of them know one another, and that’s because this festival kicks off the season and many of them travel all around the U.S. to Renaissance festivals and other similar events. The Ulfhedinn Vikings, Dansk Spyd Vikingr, and Storrada are confirmed to come this year. “They camp in the woods at Anson Acres, and people who come can see their camps set up to watch how they cook food because they do it all Viking-style over the fire,” Lingg says. “Everyone dresses the part and they never come out of character throughout the whole weekend. It’s an immersive experience.” Throughout the weekend, Viking groups re-enact battles to educate the public about
what life was like during the Viking Age. Occurring several times throughout each day, the battles are the most popular draw, though guests love the handcrafted artisans too. “I think since COVID, a lot of people have gravitated towards supporting local businesses,” Lingg says. These artisans sell a wide variety of unique items such as candles, crystals, handsculpted dragons, handcrafted ceramics, chain-mail jewelry, leather goods, local wine, handmade soaps, armor, weapons, books and drinking horns. Many of the food vendors have periodthemed items such as turkey legs, burgers, brats and Scottish eggs. There will also be a variety of fair-style food, steak tips, potatoes, loaded fries, macaroni and cheese, sandwiches, and ice cream. Beer, wine and mead (a Viking drink similar to wine) will also be available. 32 / BOONE COUNTY MAGAZINE / APRIL 2022 / TownePost.com
“It’s a family-friendly event so there’s food, drinks and fun for adults and kids,” Lingg says. Children can play in the inflatable axethrowing area and run the obstacle courses. Visitors can also view different bird shows that include falcons. In addition, a nonprofit group will have wolves and goats on-hand to pet. Viking Fest has grown each year as new vendors and entertainers have asked to be included. This year they are adding a storyteller, who will be talking by the fire pit. Other entertainment includes the band Pictus, the Minstrel Rav’n, Enchanting Animals, Take Flight! Wildlife Education, Luku the Mad Skald, a fire performer (Friday and Saturday night only), and a kegtoss competition. “The Rangers of Asgard does axe throwing and archery,” Lingg says. “People can pay $5 to do that. It’s really fun and popular.”
Tim Perkins with Dragons Den Treasures has attended Viking Fest for the past three years and always looks forward to coming back. “Viking Fest is the ultimate spectacle for vendors and customers alike,” Perkins says. “The staff are awesome, very accommodating, and placement is phenomenal for vendors. It is my best and most fun event by far.”
chance to share our love of the Viking Age with the public, and hopefully educate and entertain along the way,” Martin says. “Every year we’re pleasantly surprised as the festival gets better with more vendors, entertainment and organizations. We can’t wait to see what the future holds and are truly thankful for the opportunity to be a part of the fun-packed weekend that is Viking Fest.”
Viking Fest will take place at Anson Acres from April 29 to May 1. Anson Acres is located at 4671 Anson Boulevard in Whitestown. The daily cost of admission is just $5 per person. Children 2 and under will be admitted free of charge. Tickets are available for purchase online and at the gate. For more information, visit whitestownparks.org/vikingfest.
In past years the Whitestown Viking Fest has attracted between 5,000 and 7,000 attendees. “I don’t think people understand how big this event is and the crowd it attracts,” Lingg says. “Most of our attendance comes from outside of Boone County. It brings that big of a community because there’s no other event like this in the entire state, since the Indiana Renaissance Faire is no longer happening, or at least it didn’t last year due to COVID.” Patrick Martin Dansk Spyd Vikingr has worked with the Whitestown Viking Fest for the past couple of years. “It truly is a great weekend that gives the

ISLAND FLAIR
TROPICAL SMOOTHIE CAFE OPENS IN ZIONSVILLE Writer / Megan Arszman Photographer / Jon Ellegood
Locals can get a taste of the beach without ever having to leave Indiana, thanks to Tropical Smoothie Cafe opening its fourth store in central Indiana. The new store in Zionsville officially opens in early April. The company is celebrating its 25th anniversary this year. It first opened on the beach in Destin, Florida, bringing an island flair to customers. Owner and Operator Jamie Volpert works with his wife of 30 years, Angela, and his partners Dave and Ruth Buko, who wanted to bring Tropical Smoothie Cafe to northern Indianapolis starting four years ago. The team aims to open a total of eight stores in the area, and the Zionsville location is number four. Volpert says the best-selling smoothie offered at his stores is the Detox Island Green, which features kale, spinach, mango and TownePost.com / APRIL 2022 / BOONE COUNTY MAGAZINE / 41
ginger. “I call it a salad in a cup,” he says. Most of the smoothies at the cafe are fruit based, so you’ll find combinations featuring pineapple, mango, blueberries and strawberries, with the ability to add greens, chia seeds and more. A variety of supplements can be added to the smoothies such as collagen, vitamin C, pea or whey protein, and others. Start with a featured menu item and you can make it your own with additions to suit your lifestyle and tastes.
While Tropical Smoothie Cafe is a national chain, Volpert says the focus is on the local community, especially since he and Angela call central Indiana home. His stores are active within communities and schools, and also participate in charitable activities. “The communities around us have accepted us tremendously and it’s been a phenomenal rise,” Volpert says. “This has been quite a
“We do a lot of work with different sports teams because of the healthiness of our menu,” Volpert says. Every day, each central Indiana Tropical Smoothie Cafe uses 100 pounds of bananas and 100 pounds of strawberries while whipping up smoothies for customers. The rest of the menu also sets Tropical Smoothie Cafe apart from the competition. Freshly made items to satisfy appetites for breakfast, lunch and dinner can keep any diet on track. Sandwiches, wraps, salads, quesadillas and even a kids menu bring fresh taste to mealtime. Volpert’s favorite menu items include the Acai Berry Boost smoothie and the Buffalo Grilled Chicken wrap or Buffalo Chicken salad. “We do a lot of catering so we’re able to accommodate everyone,” Volpert says. 42 / BOONE COUNTY MAGAZINE / APRIL 2022 / TownePost.com
blessing.” To find a taste of the islands near you, visit Tropical Smoothie Cafe online at tropicalsmoothiecafe.com. The new store, featuring a drive-through, is located at 11036 North Michigan Road in Zionsville. For more info, call 770-821-1900.
