ENHANCING THE HIGH SCHOOL EXPERIENCE COLLEGE AND CAREER ACADEMY

The College and Career Academy, known as the CCA, at both Fishers and HSE high schools provides a unique learning environment for students.

“Classes in the CCA are a lot like the other normal classes, but they are also different as well. With the sliding glass walls and the couches The five-year process of planning the necessary expansion to and tables in the hallways, students have much more freedom to accommodate the number of students at the high schools explored move around comfortably while they are working,” says FHS Senior several possibilities, eventually settling on the CCA as the best option. Claire Calvert, “Having iPads and laptops for every student makes it easier to access online databases and programs such as Microsoft The welcome voice of the students aided in the decision to pursue Word right there in the classroom. I would say that overall, the CCA this design element.

These nontraditional spaces are popular “It has changed their lens, their environment,” shares Urban. “The and create new interactive experiences. energy is different within the CCA.” Another key element with the CCA is the leaning towards independent problem solving. “We are a high achieving district, but are our students prepared?” questioned FHS Principal Jason Urban. “It was found that HSE does a great job at course content but was weak with students managing their independence.” When speaking with former students at the university level, many struggled to study in a group. “We sought to increase independence, allowing less reliance on the teacher,” adds Urban.
“Students have a place to go to work where teachers can see them. The small collaborative spaces are working out well for the students – it’s private but still at school,” says Matt Kegley, Principal at HSE High School. “The whole layout was designed around flexibility in the classroom, and we are achieving that. The CCA is meeting our goals in terms of wanting students to become independent learners. Students move from whole group to small groups to individual learning within a small radius.“
Traditionally the teacher leads the way, so in order to increase student confidence in problem solving, the “process”-oriented learning has changed. With the layout of the new CCA additions, the shift with the learning model is facilitated.
The collegiate offerings for dual credit curriculum have greatly expanded. Both HSE Schools have partnerships with many state universities as well as Ivy Tech, J. Everett Light CNA medical center. “Our goal is fifth year readiness, whether that’s college or a trade school,” says Urban. Through Ivy Tech, J. Everett Light CNA medical career options, students who may not want be drawn to college are able to explore workforce options.
With lots of glass walls, it’s powerful to witness students sharing in new ways. For instance, English teach Ben Beasley was writing out

And students can leave and attend these other learning centers as part of their high school experience. “We wish to create a bridge to a student’s future, so part of the curriculum has been expanded and is relevant to their senior year and easing transition to their fifth year,” says Urban. Community businesses are coming to FHS and HSE looking for interns. Through Media Fuel, students learn digital marketing skills. HSE Schools has their own health center, and for the first time ever, students are interning there. Places like Launch Fishers, Kindred Rehab, Dr. Hanna – oncologist and Shelton Machinery have reached out to hire interns. “Working at Launch Fishers was amazing!” shares FHS grad and IU Kelley School of Business Freshman Alex Reibel. “I got to meet local entrepreneurs in many diverse fields and learned many of the stories.” “As the community is hearing about our goals and objectives outside of our walls, they are reaching out to us in order to create new opportunities and creating a unique and new partnership,” says Kegley.

“He is a completely different kid now. He does his homework after school before I even see him. It changed his life. It changed our whole household.” These are the words Sheryl Shepherd used to describe the results she saw after her son Grant finished a program at LearningRx. Prior to LearningRx, Grant’s parents, Sheryl and Randall, were in a constant battle to get Grant to do his homework. Grant’s frustration with school work placed a strain on Grant and the whole family. The fact that Grant’s parents always knew he had the ability but felt that something was missing just made the situation even more frustrating. Grant, like many other 11-year-olds, received good grades in math and some of his other subjects but really struggled with reading. While he could read the written words, Grant’s lack of focus and concentration impaired his ability to comprehend and recall what he had read. Grant’s difficulties became very apparent as he reached the fourth grade where the amount of homework increased significantly, and he started receiving letter grades. Randall said, “It was a big battle every night to get his homework done.” The Shepherds even hired two tutors, who were trained educators, just so Grant could get his homework completed. While the tutors helped Grant deal with specific lessons, they did nothing to sharpen his cognitive skills. The Shepherds’ frustration just went on and on unabated throughout the year.
Finally, the Shepherds contacted LearningRx, and Grant started in April. The Shepherds decided to enroll Grant in LearningRx because they had seen first-hand a nephew who had experienced a terrific improvement in his cognitive abilities as a result of the LearningRx program. After going to LearningRx three nights a week, Grant’s reading ability increased significantly. The reading improvement was not a result of being tutored in reading at LearningRx, but a result of improving cognitive skills that result in greater focus and concentration. Grant’s grades in reading have improved significantly, and his frustration with school has eased considerably.
LearningRx is different from other programs that “tutor” its students. Rather than tutoring on a particular subject, the LearningRx program provides a cognitive framework that people can use for the rest of their lives.
According to Heather Koenig, executive director and owner of LearningRx in Indianapolis, “Many learning problems are Recently, Grant did something that he never caused by inefficiencies in how the brain actually processes information, things like did before.

Little league teams practicing their fielding skills, high school athletes working on their swing, professional instruction for pitchers – these are just a few of the activities happening inside the Fishers Sports Academy (FSA). Offering professional instruction, training camps, batting cages, a full-size practice infield and an overlook event/meeting space, the Fishers Sports Academy was built to serve area teams for indoor training and practices. Recently celebrating their official grand opening, the 14,000 square foot indoor baseball and softball training academy is proud to serve their community. “Our goal is to not only teach the game, mentor young athletes and promote healthy competition, but to be a valuable community partner,” says Academy General Manager Eric Blakeley who was drafted by the Seattle Mariners out of Indiana
University and played professionally for six years. The coaching roster rounds out with several additional past collegiate champions and professional athletes. “Sports play such a vital role in developing positive character traits in young men and women alike,” Blakeley said. “Along with other community organizations, our coaches look forward to having the opportunity to provide life lessons in teamwork, dedication and integrity.” Serving as a hitting and fielding instructor along with Blakeley is Co-Owner Ed Woolwine, a Big Ten Conference Champion outfielder and veteran travel baseball coach. The facility also is co-owned by Beau Brunnemer, a 10-year volunteer and current President of the Fishers-HSE Youth Baseball organization, and Real Estate Developer Kyle Bach, who also is a supporter of Fishers-HSE Youth Baseball. “My hope in bringing this new amenity to the Fishers area is for FSA to be an additional outreach tool, through a 14 / FISHERS MAGAZINE / FEBRUARY 2016 / atFishers.com
community-focused mindset, to provide a safe and healthy environment for both serious and recreationally-minded youth to further their athletic and educational goals,” says Brunnemer. In addition to providing professional hitting, fielding and pitching instruction and off-season indoor team training, Fishers Sports Academy is available to host corporate events, birthday parties and community lock-ins. “We hope to be a community destination for events, whether it’s an afternoon of corporate team building, an overnight youth group lock-in, a morning Zumba class or any other type of gathering that would appreciate a unique space to hang out in,” shares Brunnemer. For training, the Fishers Sports Academy is offering individual memberships in addition to team trainings. They also give back a portion of all camp registrations to the Fishers-HSE Youth Baseball and Softball League.
With over 20 area travel teams, it was time to provide an indoor facility to compete regionally with other leagues. FSA offers 12 cages, a designated pro instruction area, automated Iron Mike pitching machine and an Atec softball pitching machine. The space was designed with flexibility in mind, creating possibilities of serving other sports and perhaps even personal training in the off hours. The facility is located at 12910 Ford Dr. in Fishers. Please visit FishersSportsAcademy.com or contact Eric Blakley at 317-436-4772 or eric@fisherssportsacademy.com or call for further information. The facility is now open Monday through Friday from 3:30 to 9:30 p.m., Saturdays from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. and Sundays from 10:30 a.m. to 9 p.m.

BECAUSE EVERYTHING
WITH BILLIE DRAGOO Writer / Kara Reibel Photographer / Amy Unger
RepuCare Founder, President and CEO Billie Dragoo has an office so heavily decorated with awards and accolades that it appears to be a trophy room at a Hall of Fame museum. Dragoo is honored to have received every award proudly displayed in her office. When asked about her most coveted achievement or award, Dragoo doesn’t hesitate to say “the Central Indiana Business Hall of Fame Junior Achievement Award I received alongside fellow Laureates David Simon (SIMON Group), Dave P. Lindsey (Defender Direct) and Michael Smith (Anthem) the same year.”
Make no mistake, Dragoo is a champion. She is a celebrated champion of her efforts to help others, namely women business owners. Dragoo’s story is inspirational of course. As a single mom of two young children, she started a business based in her home providing healthcare staffing which has flourished over the years. But it’s not the struggles she has experienced or a sad tale that defines Dragoo. The truly compelling nature of why crystal trophies litter her office space is simple. It’s Dragoo’s method and her mindset that has brought her success. She didn’t trip the prom queen and throw the PTO moms under the bus; she has simply lived a life of service by reaching out to
help other women around her achieve their dreams. “You help one woman in business, you help a thousand,” says Dragoo. Her friend, Deborah Collins Stephens, bestselling author and former Silicon Valley venture capitalist, adds. “The ripple effect of helping just one woman cascades to others. The outreach is profound.” There is still a long way to go with measurable statistics supporting why companies should support diversity in business. Studies show that women-led teams in large companies outperform those led by men. Women-owned businesses give back more to their communities and are found to be more efficient.
“You help one woman in business, you help a thousand.” When Dragoo was looking for funding to expand her business, she was rejected. “I had a solid pitch deck, and there was not a single institution wanting to invest in my service-based company,” says Dragoo, “until Carol Curran stepped in and put up her own money.” Carol Curran, CEO of Phoenix Data Corp, created a ripple with her investment in RepuCare, for the money enabled RepuCare to expand and subsequently purchase another womanowned business. The ripple turned into a wave. This experience propelled Dragoo to facilitate profound policy change in regards to venture money for women.
Most service-driven companies are owned by women. Finding capital for service-based businesses has been nearly impossible. Dragoo takes credit for the start of the Indiana Diversity Investment Fund as she should. “I believe that if you are in a position to extend your hand and bring someone forward, you do it,” says Curran. “My investment in Billie’s company enabled her to help someone else directly. We are all proud of that.” Collins Stephens adds, “Billie has opened doors for so many women in this state. I wish others could operate as she does from a ‘perspective of abundance’ instead of a ‘what’s in it for me?’ mentality. Billie

is the real deal, and I am blessed to have her as a friend!” Dragoo’s value of other female entrepreneurs cannot be overstated. Mentoring is very important to her, and she feels it is a duty, rather than a choice, for women to assist other women for business success. The wave is gaining momentum.

pounds of muscle. I have been throwing a lot better – my arms are a lot more fluid when I am pitching.”
After being referred to Force Barbell by Nolan Watson, MLB first-round draft pick for the Kansas City Royals, Bohm decided to join in hopes of maximizing his potential for the 2016 season. But in only two months, he has accomplished so much more than off-season preparation. “[Watson] told me to get in because it would help me a lot,” said Bohm. “Since I joined, I have gained 30
or gyms. At Force Barbell, every single workout is customized for the specific athlete in order to help clients reach their full potential.
Force Barbell, located just off 37 and 141st Street, is a training facility for athletes of all ages and abilities. Whether you are a national strength competitor or just looking to stay in shape, Force Barbell provides a customized training schedule along with first-class trainers to help you reach and exceed your goals.
“In the school’s weight class, it is all about lifting heavy, as much as you can, without focus on all of your muscle groups and your technique. At Force Barbell, you also work on small muscle groups, soft tissue – you get an all-body workout,” said Bohm.
“When we build a program for an athlete, we do a full physical assessment to learn where they are and what specific needs they have. We address those up front everyday,” said owner and trainer Tyler Miller. “After that, we look at where they are in the season so we can put together a total package program instead of just a training program that is good for most people. We want to optimize performance, recovery, nutrition – getting them on point. We look at training as more of a big-picture thing.” Through one-on-one personalized training, Force Barbell is a large step above other weight training programs
As for the 2016 season, Bohm hopes to lead his team to a state championship, get All State and be selected for the MLB draft in June. “I would definitely recommend Force Barbell,” said Bohm. “They build you up as an athlete. They don’t just try to get you bulk; they work on getting your mobility and muscles right, so you can be at your top performance.” Force Barbell offers a free physical assessment and the opportunity to meet the trainers and tour the facility for anyone interested in joining. To schedule your assessment or for more information, visit ForceBarbell.com or email Tyler@ForceBarbell.com.

“I missed a lot last season [from the injury], so I have really been working on becoming fit and getting my strength up,” said Obear. “Hopefully, I will become varsity.” Despite only being a freshman, Ferris is pushing to become a part of the varsity roster during her high school wrestling career as well. “I want to improve a lot this year from last year, and I want to improve a lot next year from this year,” said Ferris. “Junior year, I would like to be varsity and then take it from there.” But for Obear and Ferris, wrestling is more than just a sport. For them, it is both physical and mental, something that they feel grows them not only as an athlete but as a person. “You learn so much about yourself,” said Obear. “You push yourself harder than almost any other sport. Wrestling works your whole body and your mind.”

freshman Jayma Ferris and sophomore Valerie Obear are not your typical athletes. In junior high, both girls began to excel in a sport historically dominated by men – wrestling. Despite facing criticism, confusion and complete shock, Ferris and Obear have proven that wrestling has no gender.
and she pushes me,” said Obear. “We help each other.” But being the only girls on the team is not the only thing that the wrestlers have had to overcome. Over the past two years, Obear has torn both of her meniscuses from wrestling. After having invasive surgery to repair the cartilage, she has been working to overcome her injury and accomplish her goals.
“It matures you and changes your mindset about a lot of things,” added Ferris. “It helps you grow.” As for the future, both athletes hope to draw more girls into the sport and prove that wrestling is for everyone. “Nobody really thinks of a girl wrestling until a girl wrestles,” said Obear. “If you like the sport, stay with it.”
“A lot of girls try wrestling but don’t end up sticking with it because it is a tough sport,” said Ferris. “Some of [the criticism] can put you down, but you can take most of it and put it towards proving them wrong. You can take the criticism and show them that yes, a girl can wrestle.” As the only females on the high school wrestling team, the girls have pioneered their way into the sport. “Although we are the only female wrestlers, I feel like I kind of push her, MASCOT MONTHLY - MASCOTMONTHLY.COM / 27

KHUSHBOO CHOUGULE
SCHOLARSHIP OF THE ATHLETE MONTH
chefsuzanne.com
While balancing multiple advanced courses including AP Biology, AP Literature and Composition, AP Calculus and AP Seminar, senior Khushboo Chougule still found time to participate in a school sport - tennis.
Principal’s Advisory Council. “I think that inherently I do better at school during season than before or after because my mind realizes the need to manage time,” Chougule said. “I procrastinate less, and I don’t become distracted.”
“I love that I can forget everything and just focus on the strategy of the game,” Chougule said. “Tennis is also such a strategic game that requires both athleticism and a brain. You could be really athletic, but you can easily be outsmarted by an opponent much more athletic than you.”
But time management is not the only reason why Chougule chose to play all four years of high school. Her relationship with her team was the main reason she came back year after year.
Chougule first started playing tournaments as a fifth grader after her friends encouraged her to join. She then went on to win multiple tournaments with her teammates, all the while balancing a 4.7 GPA and involving herself in a wide variety of extracurricular activities, from Student Council Vice President and National Honor Society to DECA and
“[I play tennis because of] the people and the bonding,” Chougule said. “Tennis season is honestly my favorite part of the year, mainly because I’m with all those people.” The HSE Mascot Monthly Scholarship Athlete of the Month is sponsored by Chef Suzanne who will deliver a catered meal and plaque to the Chougule family during the month of February. Great work, Khushboo!

LOCAL AUTHOR MADALYN KINSEY Writer and Photographer / Kara Reibel
Madalyn Kinsey spent her summers at her grandparent’s farm in Fishers. Back in the 1960s, driving from Indianapolis to Fishers seemed like a long journey out into the country. During these visits, Kinsey and her cousins would explore the farm, which included a creek, woods and a cemetery containing a mysterious gravesite for a Civil War soldier. “As kids, we always wondered about this man’s story,” recalls Kinsey. “I recall being able to view the cemetery off into the distance from the back bedroom window and wondering if we’d see wisps of translucent white rising from the graves when the clock struck midnight.” It’s not surprising that Kinsey pulled from these childhood memories certain
elements for her coming-of-age Vanessa Mysteries Series. The books feature Vanessa, a 14-year-old city girl who visits her grandparents’ farm during the summer of 1967. In her first book, “The Ghost of Cheeney Creek,” Kinsey focuses upon a mystery of a nearby abandoned home and its possible ties to a Civil War soldier’s gravesite. Gatewood is Kinsey’s family name, and her grandparents and other family members owned most of the land north of 96th Street along both sides of Allisonville Road. Her grandparents’ farmhouse was on the northwest area off Allisonville and 106th Street (a portion of their land became what is now the Gatewood subdivision). The cemetery still exists for local snoopers to respectfully explore. atFishers.com / FEBRUARY 2016 / FISHERS MAGAZINE / 29
Not only did Kinsey pull inspiration from memories of locations from her childhood, but her characters are based on her cousins, one of which is Jeff Gatewood, owner of Allisonville Nursery. The character of Daniel in the books is based on Jeff.
Kinsey’s latest release, “The Mystery of Gatewood Airport,” features the heroine Vanessa back in action to solve another confounding situation, this time involving some strange goings-on at a local airport (Indy Metro). This adventure involves illegal exotic animal smuggling. Vanessa and her friends spy on the airport from a treehouse built near the perimeter and adventure ensues. Such a treehouse existed back in 1967.
“We had the greatest childhood running around the fields, woods, creek and barn around the farm,” shares Jeff. “It’s fun to see these characters loosely based on what we were and what we did, the places we went to and the music we listened to. Madalyn brings back the whole culture of what it was like growing up in the ’60s, including the mischief we got into.” Kinsey features nostalgic landmarks that no longer exist, such as the Rainbow Roller Rink, the old Dairy Queen and the ABC Drive-In in Noblesville in addition to several other destinations. It’s been revealed that the Civil War
gravesite belongs to James Payne, a Civil War veteran. “Fact or Faked,” a show on the Syfy Channel, investigated his grave for the show in 2011. Payne is listed as being a deserter and reportedly haunts the area which the show was unable to debunk after spending several days on-site investing the grave and the cemetery. “I feel like I am celebrating an era and also Hamilton County and Indianapolis,” shares Kinsey. “I’m also sharing what it was like growing up during the politically and socially tumultuous summer of 1967.” “The Man Who Defied Gravity” will be the third and final book of the Vanessa Mystery Series trilogy. Kinsey’s books are sold at Black Dog Books in Zionsville, Conner Prairie’s Gift Store, Wild Bookstore, A Corner Cottage, Allisonville Nursery and Women and Children First Bookstore in Chicago. The novels are also available on amazon.com.

Guest Speaker Hunter Smith
Master of Ceremonies Tom Britt
FISHERS YMCA CAMPAIGN BREAKFAST STRENGTHENING OUR COMMUNITY
Writer / Janet C. Striebel
For 171 years, the YMCA has focused on youth development, healthy living and social responsibility. The philanthropic organization doesn’t just bolster bodies; it shapes the future of our community by taking on challenges like the educational achievement gap, adult and childhood obesity and diseases such as the diabetes epidemic. “Many people don’t realize that the YMCA is a nonprofit organization, and we fundraise,” says Jake Reardon-McSoley, Executive Director at the Fishers YMCA. “I am excited to come to work each day to work towards our mission of awarding over $700,000 in scholarships to 7,200 folks and impacting so many kids and parents each year at Fishers YMCA….One misconception is that Hamilton County is a wealthy place, but actually there are a lot of families living here who face great financial needs.”
Fishers YMCA will host its annual campaign breakfast February 11 from 7:158:30 a.m. at 9012 E. 126th St. off Highway 37. Guests will enjoy a delicious breakfast catered by local culinary celebrity Chef Suzanne who appears weekly on WTHR Channel 13 (chefsuzanne.com). Former Indianapolis Colts punter Hunter Smith will be the guest speaker. Tom Britt, another well-known personality, will serve as the Master of Ceremonies, introducing each uplifting story about how Fishers YMCA has successfully strengthened our community. Britt is a passionate community leader and publisher of the TownePost Network (TownePost.com). Former Fishers YMCA staff member Mike Connelly, who attended Lawrence North High School and now plays for the Memphis Grizzlies, has been a longtime supporter of the YMCA annual campaign. He will share his story through a video feed. He could be a potential NBA All-Star, 32 / FISHERS MAGAZINE / FEBRUARY 2016 / atFishers.com
but no matter what happens in the NBA, he remains an all-star to the YMCA for his deep-rooted support.
YMCA MISSION SAMPLING
Since 2008, the YMCA has led a program called LIVESTRONG as part of the social responsibility mission. It helps cancer victims build and strengthen muscle mass, increase flexibility and endurance and improve confidence and self-esteem. This 12-week program meets two days a week for 90 minutes and offers a caring staff trained to follow American College Sports Medicine and American Cancer Society exercise guidelines. “LIVESTRONG focuses on healing and hope and is a very powerful program,” says Reardon-McSoley. “We’re proud to provide this program completely free for cancer survivors. This is important since we know the bankruptcy rate is two and a half times higher for cancer victims than it is for the rest of the community.”
In addition, the YMCA offers a Preschool Program to help offset the achievement gap; it’s available at a discounted rate and follows the USA Creative Curriculum model. This state-of-the-art course plan uses computers and focuses on four types of development: social/emotional, physical, cognitive and language. Of the 131 children involved with this curriculum, one out of four receive a financial scholarship.
the annual campaign, please contact Jenny Lindbloom at 317-558-3203 or register at Eventbrite.com (search ‘Fishers YMCA’). Visit indymca.org for more information or to sign up for a program.
Finally, to help address the diabetes epidemic, the YMCA has organized the Diabetes Prevention Program along with the help of the IU School of Health. Though it was first piloted at the Fishers branch, it has grown nationwide due to its success. The goal of this program is to reduce one’s body weight by seven percent while increasing physical activity by 150 minutes per week. The best part of this process is that participants can work with others in a group setting to help support each other. They can make friends as they lose weight, boost their energy, reduce their risk for diabetes and improve their health. According to the National Institute of Health, the YMCA’s Diabetes Prevention Program not only reduces the number of new cases of Type 2 Diabetes by 58 percent overall but also by 71 percent in people over 60. The YMCA is fundraising for the sake of the Fishers public’s well-being. After all, a healthy community is a happy one. Reardon-McSoley invites you to come share fellowship at the Fishers YMCA fundraising breakfast. “We have a lot of powerful missions to carry out. The only way to strengthen our community is by carrying out these missions through the generous support of our donors. We have thousands who are leading a better life because of the time, treasure and talent of our current donors.” If you are unable to attend the breakfast but would like to donate to atFishers.com / FEBRUARY 2016 / FISHERS MAGAZINE / 33

NEAL TIRE AND AUTO SERVICE AT GEIST 13894 E. 96th St. McCordsville 317-335-5558 nealtire.com
Neal’s commitment to its customers shows. Take your car to Neal Tire and Automotive, and you’ll get more than just a tire experience. “Each customer gets quality attention because they’re dealing directly with one of the owners,” says President Terry Carlon. "The engine behind delivering a good experience to customers is the company’s philosophy of attention to total vehicle safety. Carlon says, “It’s all about the safety of all elements of the vehicle. Selling tires is the easy part, but ensuring the complete safety of our customers is our goal.” That means the technicians will check your vehicle for uneven tire wear or any mechanical issues that, if left unchecked, might compromise the safety of your vehicle’s occupants or other motorists.

The neighborhood tire and auto store just east of Olio on 96th Street now has a new name and face. Formerly Cooper Tire, Neal Tire and Auto Service bought the store last year by adding it to their 26 other retail locations.
Neal offers a full range of automotive services from lube, oil and filter changes to driveshaft repair, engine diagnostics and more. Stop in the store east of the corner of Olio and 96th Street just beyond the strip mall and gas station, and visit their website to explore all that Neal Tire and Auto Service has to offer.
With its 27 retail stores and six distribution warehouses (operating under the name Ben Tire) in Indiana, Illinois and Kentucky. The size of the organization provides the buying power to compete with any discount tire merchant with tire brands such as Michelin, Goodyear, Bridgestone, Firestone, Yokohama and Cooper. Automotive services were also needed. Neal Tire made a strategic move of its headquarters from Toledo, Illinois, to Indianapolis in May 2015. The company’s president and two vice presidents reside in Hamilton County, paving the road for Neal to expand its business presence in Indiana. When the previous owner, Bob Williams, was looking to sell, Neal revved its engines of expansion, and the deal fell into place. Now Indiana boasts Neal stores in McCordsville, Terre Haute, Greencastle, Bloomington, Columbus and Crawfordsville. Neal has had a foothold in the tire and automotive industry since 1925 when it was started by the Neal family. Now employee owned and operated, Neal Tire and Auto Service is proud to offer the same high standard of quality workmanship and customer service introduced over 90 years ago. To that end, Neal’s company mission is to offer peace of mind to its customers.
