INGA'S POPCORN A Farmers Market Product | Geri Neita In addition to fostering a sense of community and providing a source for healthy food options, farmers markets across the country have become popular test markets for startup businesses, and the Zionsville Farmers Market is no exception. Since its inception in 1997, new and successful businesses have been spawned and nurtured there. But what makes many of these stories unique is the way current business owners reach out to new entrepreneurs, encouraging and supporting them in their quest to turn a hobby into a successful enterprise.

In the mid 1990s, when I baked pastries for the Butler’s Pantry tea room (an extension of the current Butler’s Pantry on Main Street), store owner, Sandy Rogers, unselfishly allowed me to use her facility to run a small catering business, on the side. Thinking back, I realize that chances were pretty slim I’d ever have ventured down that road without Sandy’s unfettered generosity. This same kindness and willingness to support others is still evident among local proprietors who share Sandy’s altruistic values.

Kelly Maucere, baker and proprietor of My Sugar Pie, has had a stall at the Zionsville Farmers Market since 2008 where she learned how to promote certain pies throughout the summer – fresh strawberry and rhubarb at the beginning of the season, peach towards the end and, when the weather is cool enough, she offers pecan and pumpkin pies.

Just about the time she was starting her business, Kelly and her husband had dinner at the Cobblestone Grill. “We were talking to another couple who were sitting close to us and didn’t realize they were the owners of the business,” she said, with a chuckle. “My husband piped up, ‘Well, Kelly is starting her own business baking pies, and she needs a commercial kitchen.’” And so began a relationship that continues today. “It was an easy way to start slowly with the business and see if it was going to take off before I got into a brick and mortar with all that overhead,” she recalled.

This month Kelly celebrates the second anniversary of having her own shop, but the Cobblestone Grill continues to offer patrons a taste of her highly acclaimed pies. “I’d like to stay loyal to the restaurant that gave me my start,” Kelly said.

As for the Zionsville Farmers Market, Kelly doesn’t ever want to leave it. “We just enjoy having a presence there. It’s

“Popcorn is fun! I love it! I get out of bed thinking, this is going to be a great day!” said Inga Smith, proprietor of Inga’s Popcorn.

When circumstances came along that dictated changes in her life, Inga felt the only option was to open up a business – one that would enable her to work as she pleased, while being there for children, Carmen, Quinn, and Eve as much as possible.

Having grown up in an entrepreneurial family, working for her parents and owning a couple other businesses in previous years, the idea seemed perfectly natural. But Inga didn’t know what that business would be until she took a trip to Chicago with a friend who introduced her to Garrett Popcorn. “I see this line wrapped around the corner and a lightbulb went on,” she said. “I knew that my hometown in Zionsville didn’t have a popcorn shop, and so I looked into it.” She thought if she could take Garrett’s idea and tweak it to make it her own, it just might work.

Today, Inga has two storefronts – one in Bloomington, Ind., and one in Zionsville, where she pops about 60 pounds of popcorn daily.

But other places carry Inga’s Popcorn too. Not long after setting up in the coffee shop in the West Baden Springs Hotel and Oliver Winery, Indiana University jumped on board. "Last year we provided popcorn for all the suites at the football games,” said Inga. And this fall, it’ll be hawked to all the fans in the aisles. “I grew up in Bloomington and went to IU, so I’m very excited about my popcorn being there,” Inga said.

During the month of August, Inga’s Popcorn is running a contest for a new flavor. The winner will receive one tub of popcorn a month for an entire year! Pick up your entry form at Inga’s Popcorn and a couple of bags of her delicious flavored popcorn at 140 S. Main St, Zionsville.

DARRIN’S COFFEE A Local Perk Also with experience at the Farmer’s Market, Darrin Marion knows his beans. A self-taught coffee connoisseur, this laid-back brewmeister has already placed his stamp on Zionsville.

After having worked for a well-known coffee company, Darrin was curious as to whether he could roast coffee beans himself, and perhaps improve upon the flavor. Friends helped him tweak the nuances, and it wasn’t long before 10

zionsville C O M M U N I T Y

Zionsville_August_2013.indd 10

he saw a little revenue come in. It was time to take it to the masses, and Darrin’s Coffee Co. quickly gained popularity on the north side of Indy.

It seems that beans grown at different altitudes and in different geographical regions require different treatment, with regard to ‘burning’ them, as Darrin calls the roasting process. So, he takes the time and effort to treat each one according to its profile.

Who knew there was so much to learn about coffee?

Darrin sells his custom coffee blends in his store on Main Street and online (darrinscoffee.com). Stop in – he’d love to meet you!

really been a success for us,” she said.

Inga Smith, proprietor of Inga’s Popcorn, also reaped the benefits of test-marketing her gourmet snack at the farmers market. When life threw the mother of three a couple of unexpected curve balls, Inga knew she had to create a way to generate income for her family, so armed with an old home recipe, she jumped right in and started making caramel corn. Soon after, she added Cheddar to her repertoire, and with a balance of sweet and savory, she hit the farmers market. “I had popped probably $500 worth of popcorn to sell at that first farmers market and not one person came up to buy popcorn until 10 o’clock,” Inga recalls (the farmers market is only open between 8:00 a.m. and 11:00 a.m.) But in the last hour, “We sold and sold and sold and sold. Now I know people don’t like popcorn for breakfast! It’s more of an afternoon thing,” she said.

That summer, Inga sold so much popcorn that she decided she’d try to launch her product in the retail market, so that meant using a licensed kitchen – and she found one at Eagle Creek Coffee Company. At the farmers market, earlier in the year, Inga had befriended Ken Julian who owned the coffee shop at the time, and he readily agreed to let her use his facility after business hours.

Not only did Inga sell her popcorn at the farmers market, she also bought it there. On a whim, she purchased some

popping corn from a Brownsburg farmer who ran his own stall. She took it home, tried it and was hooked. “There was just a huge difference in the quality of the popcorn,” she said. Interestingly, Inga’s Popcorn became popular so quickly that she purchased all the corn the farmer could harvest and had to find another source!

Today, Inga Smith has her own storefront and is ‘paying it forward.’ She offered her kitchen and retail space to Jon and Kathy Weed after tasting a sample of their homemade peanut butter and encouraging them to test it at the farmers market.

In a matter of weeks, B. Happy Peanut Butter was born. “We wouldn’t do this if we didn’t have Inga and a local kitchen to use,” Jon said, in a recent interview. “Having her support, right off the bat, was a huge benefit.”

This is the Weed family’s first year at the farmers market, where their peanut butter has debuted to raving reviews. “It’s such a great way to test the market for something, see if it’s priced right, see if there’s interest. We love it because we get to interact with people and get that instant feedback,” Jon explained.

Others, including Darrin Marion, owner of Darrin’s Coffee Co., started out at the farmers market too. In fact, Darrin tested in three separate markets and discovered Zionsville to be the most favorable. He recently opened up shop next to Plum’s Upper Room on Main Street where he blends and roasts his beans

B. HAPPY PEANUT BUTTER Beyond the Sandwich Smunchy. That’s how the Weeds, makers of B. Happy Peanut Butter, describe the texture of their unique recipe.

“It’s crunchier than smooth, and smoother than crunchy,” explained Jon, husband and father of this family operation.

The Weeds have always been huge fans of peanut butter, so when the locally made variety they bought at the farmers market was no longer available, Jon and his wife, Kathy, decided to make their own. That was in January of this year.

B. Happy Peanut Butter is made using honey-roasted peanuts which instantly creates a sweet and salty profile.

“We ordered a lot of different peanuts from a lot of different places online before we found the one that we liked,” Jon said.

to create signature flavors. And again, owners of established businesses have extended a welcoming hand; Plum’s and Noah Grant’s both serve up Darrin’s fabulous coffee.

Le Dolce Vita owner Kelly Evans, who recently moved to the former site of the Eagle Creek Coffee Co., is also active in helping the entrepreneur spirit in the Village. “I currently rent my kitchen to Amy Pictor who sells quiche at the Farmers Market. We will also be selling and using in our new store, B. Happy Peanut Butters.”

So, as you can see, the Zionsville Farmers Market is a fabulous testing ground for many new ventures, and it’s backed up by a great community of business owners who understand the value in supporting one another and welcoming new faces.

The Zionsville Farmers Market, at the corner of Main Street and Hawthorne, runs every Saturday from 8:00 a.m. – 11:00 a.m. through Sept. 28. For more information and a list of vendors, visit www.zionsvillefarmersmarket.org.

Geri Neita is a Zionsville resident and freelance writer who fronts a local Irish band.

A Craftsman, Not a Contractor

Together, the family of five work the Zionsville Farmers Market, handing out samples to passersby. “You have to sample it before you really know what it’s like. It’s so different,” Jon said. “I just haven’t found anything that has the texture and consistency and the stuff that we put in it.”

Currently, B. Happy Peanut Butter comes in five flavors: Dream Big (white chocolate and pretzel); Happy Trails Mix (raisin, chocolate chip and flaxseed); Go Lucky (milk chocolate, toffee and puffed rice cereal); So Happy Together (Inga’s snickerdoodle popcorn); Keep Smunchy (plain). One Facebook fan who tried the white chocolate and pretzel combination made a great observation, “It’s totally spoon worthy!”

“It’s really not made to just go on a sandwich,” Jon explained. He suggests trying it with apples or bananas, mixed into smoothies, stirred into yogurt or, his personal favorite, over vanilla ice cream.

Buy B. Happy Peanut Butter at Le Dolce Vita and Inga’s Popcorn in Zionsville, and The Goose Market in Indianapolis. But, be warned – it’s addictive! Oh well, as the Weed family likes to say, “Life is short. B. Happy.”

Celebrating a 10-Year Symphony On The Farm | Denise Reiter . Photos | JJ Kaplan

estled among the gently rolling hills of southwestern Boone County you can treat yourself to one of the most exquisite dining experiences in Indiana – perhaps the entire Midwest – by enjoying a meal on the deck at The Loft Restaurant at Traders Point Creamery. Once you’ve finished your delectable, fresh-from-the-farm dinner (or breakast or lunch), sit back and take in the sights and sounds of this centuries-old, family-owned farm.

Just simply listen. As your senses soak in your surroundings, you’ll begin to detect a palpable rhythm. It’s unmistakable.

Whether it’s the breeze gently rippling through a welcoming archway of Indiana willows, the distant moo-ing of a contented cow, the pleasant chatter of patrons and foodies enjoying delights only dreamed of, or the quiet hum of farm workers going about their chores — the harmonious composition is there, played out as a most remarkable and beautiful symphony.

Part of this summer’s particular symphony has been a flurry of construction cacophony to prepare for the celebration of Traders Point Creamery’s 10-year anniversary. And to commemorate the special occasion, the farm is about to get better — if that’s possible!

Thanks to continued, steady growth over the last decade, TPC has expanded its capacity to serve more customers. Big plans brought about many changes including the addition of a new stove and an enlarged kitchen; a beautifully landscaped new slate patio and firepit on the first balcony; a new Dairy Bar service window; and a third floor addition for private parties, group meetings and special events. “These exciting changes will give us a total of three balconies for our patrons to appreciate our spectacular view while enjoying meals fit for a king, or having a glass of wine and sampling of our popular cheese board,” stated Gail Alden, Marketing Director at Traders Point Creamery. “We estimate we’ll be able to serve twice as many people outside on the decks with our expansion. It’s really going to be fabulous!"

Like a magnificent masterpiece, painstakingly created by artisans who clearly love their craft, the foods that TPC produces and serves to customers of all ages and from nearly all corners of the world, are unequivocally worldclass and of the highest quality available anywhere. From the organic garden in view from your table, to the 100% grass-fed herd, to the cheese cave or the organic wines — each component comes together for an unforgettable dining

experience rivaling any restaurant far and wide. Best of all, it’s right in Zionsville’s backyard!

One of the best-kept secrets about Traders Point Creamery is dinner. Once breakfast and lunch are over, The Loft takes on a lovely upscale, rustic chic atmosphere. Menus are changed for the evening crowd to please even the most sophisticated palates, including items like pate´ and quail. Candles are placed and lit on all the beams giving a warm and enchanting appeal. White linens drape all the tables. Wine is available for patrons, and very often there is live music. Instead of the all-too-often outdoor dining view of a restaurant’s parking lot, TPC diners lookout over a panoramic view of the farm and its trees and peaceful pastures. It doesn’t get much better than this.

However, the real symphony of Traders Point Creamery lies in the beauty and simple philosophy behind this generational farm. Orchestrating the inner workings behind the scenes are TPC owners, Peter “Fritz” Kunz and Jane Elder Kunz.

Immediately when you meet them, it’s apparent they have long been aware of the pivotal connection between the land and food. In fact, their passion about honoring the way food

is made can be downright contagious.

“We really believe we are not owners of the land, but rather caretakers of the land for the next generation,” said Jane.

Jane and Fritz were very young when they first met. Both were students at The Orchard School in Indianapolis – Jane a kindergartner, Fritz a first-grader. When Jane inherited her family’s farm from her 104-year old grandmother, the couple did some soul-searching about what would be the best thing to do with the land. They wanted to preserve the family farm and continue to improve on their grandparents’ legacy of sensible, sustainable low-input agriculture. The two key influences that pointed them toward beginning an organic dairy farm were that the Elder farm had had dairy cattle on its property for more than 50 years; and, Fritz is a physician.

Health and nutrition have naturally been an important and permanent part of their family’s interests.

After meeting the challenge of becoming USDA Organic Certified, which means they waited for three years for all traces of chemicals to leave the farm’s grasses and land, TPC became the first organic dairy farm in the state of Indiana. Fritz and Jane were pioneers in every sense of the word because there were no other organic dairy farms around to draw support from back then. They learned the meaning of being organic in a very practical and methodical way by researching, seeking out the facts, visiting farms and asking questions.

The Dairy Barn was their first initiative, serving organic whole milk, ice cream, milk shakes and smoothies. Then TPC followed with the Loft Restaurant offering breakfast, lunch and dinner six days a week (no dinner on Mondays.) From there, the popularity of the goodness of their food took over and the rest is history.

Not only did TPC pioneer the way for organic dairy farming in Indiana, but they’ve been pathfinders in other areas, as well. TPC was the first producer in the United States to offer glass jars for single-serving yogurt providing premium appearance, material health, and recyclability. Fleur de la Terre, a classic Gouda, is one of their award-winning cheeses. “We’ve become disconnected from our food, and TPC wants to see farms survive in an urban setting,” said Fritz. "Having food near where you live, eat and work is ideal because it’s important for people to see how food gets made and how it is grown. Farms in a surburban setting create public conversations, they create jobs, and farms stimulate other businesses in the community. It can be a great relationship.

time honored and philanthropic tradition returns to Zionsville

The Trader’s Point Hunt Charity Horse Show and Country Fair returns for the 36th year with pageantry and tradition to the 250 acres of sprawling countryside at Wild Air Farms in Zionsville. This nationally renowned event is organized by Mrs. Elizabeth W. Johnson, her family and the Trader’s Point Hunt Charity Horse Show Committee.

Located west of Zionsville’s historic downtown, visitors and spectators will find themselves entranced by the majesty of the grounds, the exhibition rings and annexes, and pagoda and Country Fair that make up Wild Air Farms. Originally part of the hunting grounds of the Traders Point Hunt Club (founded in 1932) the Show has become an annual favorite in the equestrian world.

Guests of the Show are delighted with a myriad of activities throughout the week leading up to the two Grand Prix events: the $35,000 Marty and Russell Fortune, Jr. Memorial Grand Prix, featuring world-class horses and riders on the evening of August 9; and the $75,000 Grand Prix of Indianapolis August 11 featuring an extraordinary afternoon of show jumping on one of the nation’s most challenging Grand Prix fields. Dignitaries, VIP sponsors and more than 8,000 spectators attend this day of great exhibition.

One of the unique elements that sets this Show apart from others is the philanthropic component that benefits Riley Hospital for Children in Indianapolis. Riley Hospital serves more than 230,000 patients annually and is ranked eleventh in the nation for it’s overall services, research and level of care, and fourth for neonatal care. The Show’s chairperson and founder, Mrs. Johnson, continues to advocate for the support of Riley Hospital and its growing pediatric AUGUST 2013

research programs. “We are pleased to have Riley Hospital for Children as our charity for the seventh consecutive year,” Johnson stated. “Riley Hospital has been providing comprehensive care for children since opening in 1924. Riley Hospital is dedicated to the critical care needs of children, and treats patients from more than 200,000 Indiana families and from every country every year.”

The Johnson’s hospitality and Show Committee’s dedication to the quality of the amenities that are offered to the

exhibitors and their parties is equally as legendary as their philanthropic efforts.

The exhibitors of the Show are offered stately riding facilities. They can enjoy cross-country riding on the 250 acres of trails and around Lake Elizabeth and Indiana Lake, and have access to an army of Show staff, judges, stewards, jump crews and other necessary personnel who make this effort successful. The Show brings in hundreds of riders of all ages from around the country including world class equestrians, Olympic competitors and their magnificent horses.

Nationally known horse trainers, grooms, farriers and veterinarians arrive to the Show because of the precise orchestration of manager Michael Morrissey. Morrissey brings with him more than thirty years of show management experience paralleling the Show organizers’ level of care and attention to details. The Show is also greatly assisted by the Traders Point Hunt Club which plays a major role in bringing volunteers to work in numerous capacities throughout the week.

Tom Santelli, a member of the TPHC and Show Committee member for the last eight years, explained what makes this Show so highly ranked.

“The Trader’s Point Hunt Club Horse Show is in the top five horse shows in the nation, and it’s cornerstone piece is the Grand Prix Sunday,” Santelli said. “The Show is made up of many engaging events such as the Paws to Applause Dog Show, Kid’s Day, the Russell Fortune Classic and two Hunter Derbies that showcase the highest level of performing between the riders and the horses. There is a lot more magic in the training and in the athletic abilities of the horse and rider in the Hunter Derbies compared to horse racing.”

Expert investment management for portfolios of $500,000 or more.

Santelli also spoke about the importance of the Show to the local area and why members see it as a valuable asset to the community.

“The Show brings in 12-15,000 people over the week,” Santelli explained.

“It provides a great opportunity for sponsorship for local businesses and restaurants at both local and national levels. It it a great place for locals to come for a lovely stroll, see some incredible jumping, shop the Country Fair and participate in any of the incredible events that take place on these beautiful grounds.”

Mrs. Liz Johnson Brings Majesty & Grace to Zionsville

| Neil Lucas . Photos | JJ Kaplan Every August for the past 35 years, the highest levels of the hunter/jumper equestrian world have descended upon Zionsville to compete in the Trader’s Point Charity Horse Show. While the horse show is a world-class competition, it is equally an annual tribute to its founder and longtime Zionsville resident, Mrs. Liz Johnson. The Trader’s Point Horse Show is this remarkable eighty five year old’s annual gift to the town of Zionsville, Riley’s Children Hospital, and the equestrian world she loves so very much.

From an early age, Mrs. Johnson’s world has revolved around horses, although neither of her parents were particularly interested in riding. While growing up as a “city girl” in the 56th and Washington Boulevard neighborhood, her first memory of being drawn to horses is one of being a very young girl wanting to continuously ride the ponies at the old Riverside Park. (Editor’s Note: It is uncanny how similar Mrs. Johnson’s description of her early attraction to horses is to young Stephanie Freeland, our cover story in July).

Mrs. Johnson quickly progressed from the ponies at Riverside Park to the world of competitive horse shows. She fondly remembers that as a teenager her brother gave her her first horse named Janette Umber. Not long after receiving Janette Umber, Mrs. Johnson took the horse to compete in one of the nation’s top horse shows at Devon in the western suburbs of Philadelphia (founded in 1896). Amazingly, Mrs. Johnson and Janette Umber finished fourth in the Hunter’s Stake. Mrs. Johnson recalls her trainer telling her after the Devon performance, “You just went to college without going to kindergarten.”

From that first show in Devon, Mrs. Johnson continued to compete successfully at the highest levels including several appearances and wins in competitions at Madison Square Gardens. As a result of her lifetime of accomplishments in hunter/jumper competitions, she was recently inducted into the Hunter Wall of Honor at the Devon Horse Show and has been recognized as a living legend at Madison Square Garden. She has appeared in the prestigious Town & Country magazine twice.

Not surprisingly, Mrs. Johnson met her husband at a stable.

They both had a love for horses and fox hunting, and as a result moved from Indianapolis to a farm in Zionsville in 1948, principally to be closer to the Trader’s Point Hunt Club. It’s the same hunt club where she served as field master, whipper-in, huntsman, and presently holds the prestigious title of “Master of the Foxhounds or MFHA.”

Through the years, the Johnsons continued to reside in Zionsville while competing in the various equine competitions around the country, raising two sons (Johnny and Sylvester), some pigs, cows, chickens, and for a while, bred and trained thoroughbred race horses. Somehow Mrs. Johnson also found the time to become qualified as a ski instructor in Aspen, and to win a few trophies playing tennis at the Woodstock Country Club. Clearly, she is a woman with a great deal of drive and energy.

Mrs. Johnson and I met around 5:30 p.m. after she had just flown in from California late the day before. By the time we got together, she had already attended several business and board meetings earlier in the day. At the end of our twohour meeting, she hopped in her car, donned a fedora, and drove down the road to another board meeting. It is worth repeating that she accomplished all this at the age of 85.

While Father Time and numerous horse-related injuries may have slowed her down and reduced her mobility, it has done nothing to diminish her vitality or her passion for horses, people, and the community.

When asked how she and her husband decided to start the Trader’s Point Charity Horse Show, she responded that they wanted to use their property for the good of other people. Liz Johnson brings the majesty and tradition of Devon, Madison Square Gardens, the Hamptons, and Spruce Meadows to Zionsville, Indiana once a year with the finest of riders and horses culminating in the Grand Prix on Sunday. And that is her gracious gift to the community, charity and sport that she loves.

Eric Moore Equestrian Giant | Ray Compton When the fox hunters gather for their annual schedule this fall and winter at Traders Point Hunt Club near Zionsville, it is unlikely there will be many riders standing 6-foot-6 and weighing over 320 pounds.

But there will be at least one.

It is also improbable that there will be many former first round National Football League draft selections charging up and down the trail at Traders Point Hunt Club during this fox hunting season.

But there will be at least one.

And, finally, it is very doubtful that there will be many Traders Point Hunt Club fox hunting participants that have a Super Bowl ring locked in a safety box.

But, again, there will be at least one.

Indeed, you could say that personable Eric Moore is not your stereotypical equestrian sports competitor. His resume is filled with remarkable victories on the football field in the NFL, and noteworthy achievements in the business world as the owner of several McDonald’s franchises. But when it comes to piling up personal accomplishments, Moore proudly recalls his horse jumping, trail riding and fox hunting skills at Traders Point Hunt Club and other Indiana horse riding courses. “I absolutely love it,” said Moore from his office in Oaklandon. “It is all about relaxation. You have to be energetic to do it, but it is an opportunity to get away from everything else. It is a great stress reliever. It is a joy to ride.”

And it is an avenue for the 48-year-old Moore to maintain physical and mental conditioning. His riding schedule of three days a week starts at sunrise when and he and the horses (Rolex and Ferrari) begin their riding regiment. “If I could, I would go out riding every day,” noted Moore, who rides each horse for about 30 minutes during a day’s ride.

“You can get together with other people and go out riding.

You go out with the hounds, go through the woods and do the jumps. You feel great when you can jump all the jumps.

“It is a workout. It is a great feeling when you are done. I am sweating down to my navel. It reminds me of playing football.”

Eric28Moore in his days as a New York Giant zionsville community newsletter Zionsville_August_2013.indd 28

7/24/2013 7:44:50 PM

Playing football was the main course for the first portion of Moore’s life. After playing football in Berkely, Missouri, Moore joined Bill Mallory’s Hoosiers in Bloomington. He started three years at right tackle for Indiana and was drafted at the No. 10 slot by the New York Giants in the 1988 NFL Draft.

His first professional coach was the iconic Bill Parcells.

“Bill knew what he wanted in a team and you were a piece of his puzzle in achieving success,” remembered Moore.

“I learned a lot from that experience with him. To be successful in business, you need pieces of the puzzle.”

The Giants, Parcells and Moore captured Super Bowl XXV in 1991, defeating Buffalo, 20-19. Two years later, Moore was acquired by the Cincinnati Bengals. His career ended in 1995 after stops with Cleveland and Miami. “It was in July and I called the coach and said I was retiring,” Moore said.

“Football was a great experience. If I could have, I would have played until I was 50. Football provided me with so many opportunities, including traveling in the off-season to Germany and other parts of Europe to go to military bases.

It provided me with so many opportunities.”

Football was replaced by McDonald’s. Moore and his wife, Indianapolis native Vanessa, are among the largest franchise owners in central Indiana. Vanessa oversees operational components of the ownership tandem. In 2012, Moore was honored by McDonald’s as winner of the Black History Makers of Today. The award is presented to persons who are “extremely involved in the community” and have obtained outstanding professional achievement. “McDonald’s has been a joy since Day One,” said Moore. “The people are the ones who make it fun. You are able to work with them and someday put them in management positions. They are your pieces of your puzzle.”

Another portion of the puzzle for the Moore team has been raising four children. The eldest is a sophomore-to-be at the University of Indianapolis. Daughter Erica is a potential all-state basketball player at Mt. Vernon High School, and younger sons Bryce (basketball) and Brandon (football) play sports at Park Tudor. “Everyone needs to compete in something,” said Moore. “If it is sports, then that is great.

But it can be dancing or playing checkers too. You need to do something that you have passion to compete in and play with a team. Competing develops us as a person.”

And Moore delights in his new personal passion, riding his horses. Vanessa, who traveled as a youngster to her uncle’s farm in Tennessee to ride horses, introduced the former football player to horses and riding. “The horses touch your soul,” said Vanessa, whose horse, Hollywood, is 23 and is “very special” to his soul mate. “Hollywood doesn’t jump that much now. He is strictly for fun.” august 2013

Meanwhile, Moore has become hooked on a new hobby.

Besides riding recreationally with Vanessa, Moore has grown fond of riding in the hunt at the Traders Point Hunt Club and filling his horse trailer with three horses and traveling to nearby jumping sites in Indiana.

He admits that he may not be ready for an event championship, but that does not discount the thrill of riding.

“There are no bad days of horse riding,” said Moore. “If you fall, you get up.”

This included his first attempt at fox hunting at Traders Point Club last year. The riders and their four-legged teammates are not chasing live foxes. Instead the fields have been laced with scent of a fox to lead the hounds, horses and riders. “I was green, green,” said Moore. “I tried to stay away from the trees.”

But, alas, Moore’s horse went sideways near a tree and the 6-foot-6, 325-pound Moore barreled into the tree. By being the first competitor sidelined, Moore was crowned “King” of the hunt. Moore, fortunately, suffered no serious injuries.

“My ego got hurt,” he admitted.

But Moore has massaged the ego and will return for fox hunting this fall. After all, football players have gotten knocked down too.

ZCHS’s Football Coach Prepares for the 4th Quarter

A

fter authoring the blueprint for football at Zionsville High School for the last 17 years, Larry McWhorter has witnessed a remarkable growth of the sport in the community.

First, there is the football stadium, a wonderful-looking brick facility perched on the northwest side of the sprawling school campus on Mulberry Street. The recently constructed stadium has become the center of the universe in Zionsville during an Indiana high school season.

Then there is the tradition that McWhorter, his coaching staff and school administrators have carved out during the McWhorter regime. Not only have the Eagles posted a 14755 record in those 17 years, but they have also nabbed six sectional championships, two regional titles and two semistate conquests.

Finally, Zionsville and McWhorter and Associates have refueled successfully each autumn. They regularly welcome 90-100 players each year.

Soon, though, the veteran coach will be entering a new and different world. This one presents a few daunting uncertainties, including this possibility: What if you started a new football program and no one came to the audition? “Who

knows,” admitted McWhorter with a laugh, “we may only have seven or eight players. That’s probably my biggest fear.”

Okay, McWhorter believes he is only kidding when talking about his first squad at Covenant Christian in 2014. But he also recognizes that he is leaving a comfortable nest in Zionsville for the unknown world of hammering out from the ground level a football program for a private, Christianbased school of less than 350 students. Not only does Zionsville house more than 1,800 students, but the Eagles have a strong youth football program that annually restocks the community’s middle and high school systems.

In reality, McWhorter is buckled up for two challenges.

One project is laying out plans for the birth of a successful football program at Covenant Christian in 2014 (junior varsity) and 2015 (varsity). The second enterprise is continuing his coaching assignment at Zionsville for the 2013 season. His 18th Eagle edition opens the season against Lafayette Jeff on August 23.

Summer workouts will turn to formal practices in early August. “This (Zionsville) is priority one,” said McWhorter before a summer workout with his team. “We are committed to achieve everything that we can achieve with this team. I don’t want anyone to think that coach Mac is not committed to this team. We definitely are committed.” august 2013

The season will be packed with the annual Hoosiers Crossroads Conference slugfests. This means featured battles include bouts with Brownsburg, Avon, Fishers, Hamilton Southeastern, Westfield and Noblesville.

“Everyone seems to get better,” McWhorter said. “Every game is a conference game. It is tough.”

The next chapter will also be highlighted with difficult confrontations for McWhorter. Future foes will not include squads from Brownsburg, Fishers and Avon, but there will be numerous potholes while steering a start-up program.

Ideas that sparkled on paper will now have to be executed on the field.

And, speaking of a field for the Covenant Christian team.

“We’re still working on getting one,” said McWhorter.

This building process started three years ago when McWhorter volunteered to huddle with Covenant Christian officials to offer advice on starting a football program. Wife Debbie worked at the school and he had met many parents and administrators during a school mission trip to Mexico.

“They were investigating what it would take to get football started at the school,” McWhorter said. “So we talked about the needs for staffing, the physical plant and the coaching standards that I would recommend.

“After a few discussions, a seed was planted in me. I thought about how enjoyable it would be to try and build a program from zero to something.”

The timing was also perfect because of a situation that the 57-year-old McWhorter faced at Zionsville. Due to contractual issue with his teaching position at the school, McWhorter would not be able to continue at the school after 2013. IHSAA and officials from both schools worked out an arrangement to share McWhorter for this season. McWhorter would continue to coach the Eagles and start putting together a staff and building plans for football at Covenant Christian.

“It is a home run for us,” said Covenant Christian athletic director Andy Gossel. “Coach Mac is providing us with instant creditability. He is icing on the cake.”

McWhorter will carry his coaching style and philosophies to his new post on the Westside of Indianapolis. He learned those principles while serving as a student assistant at Franklin College. His mentor was the legendary Red Faught, who pioneered spreading the field with his run and shoot passing concepts. “The only reason I am here is because of Red Faught,” remembered McWhorter. “I was on the track team and he knew I wanted to be a coach. He saw something in me that no one else did. I got my coaching principles from him.”

Those mainstay principles – executing correct techniques

and unleashing full effort – have been the trademark of McWhorter’s Eagles, who won the 3A state championship in 1996 (defeating Fort Wayne Dwenger) and finished second in 2000 (losing in overtime to Heritage Hills). “Physically, we may not always be the best team on the field,” said McWhorter, who has produced four Division I players at Zionsville. “But our team will compete on every play.

We hear a lot from coaches who say that they wish their program would be like ours. That is the ultimate compliment for a coach and his players to hear.”

Gossel wants to see those traits carry over from Zionsville to his camp. “It is very exciting for us to have Coach Mac,” said Gossel, “And that is not disrespecting other candidates that we had. We had 40, 50 candidates apply and most were outstanding candidates. But coach Mac is the perfect person for us. Not only does he have solid coaching expertise, but he is passionate about mentoring kids beyond the football field. He wants to make them better people.”

The Gossel roadmap for football at his school is very similar to the one drawn up at Zionsville. He dreams of future Friday nights to be special bonding moments for the students, parents and administrators at Covenant Christian. The school attracts students from 51 different middle schools (private and public) and home schools. “We’re big on building community

here,” said Gossel. “Football can build a community spirit at your school. Other athletic directors have told me that a football program is important to the identity of a school.

Everyone goes to the home football game.”

However, home football games may not immediately come.

A home field is still lodged in the wish phase for McWhorter and Gossel. “We may bounce around for a while,” conceded Gossel, who will gear future schedules toward 1A schools in the area.

For now, McWhorter refuses to worry about the field.

Instead he is eyeing one last run at Zionsville and one big chase at Covenant Christian. “I think my dad put it best,” recalled McWhorter, who admits his final walk off the field at Zionsville may be an emotional one. “He said it would be a chance for me to re-energize myself. He told me that I would get a charge out of the change.”

But that change and charge are still on the horizon for McWhorter. He still has some business to complete at the Zionsville stadium.

eagle fest ZCHS Football Kickoff - Aug. 23 | Jennifer Pittman If in late August you find yourself asking whether or not everyone’s green spirit wear means St. Patrick’s Day has come seven months early, don’t fret. Football season has arrived in Zionsville, and just as in much of small-town America, Friday nights this fall will be consumed by it.

Zionsville’s sea-of-green fans will make their 2013 debut on Friday, August 23 for the varsity team’s season opener versus the Lafayette Jefferson Broncos. The home team Eagles will kick things off with Eagle Fest, a pre-game rally and community cookout. The event is sponsored by the Athletic Booster Club annually, and has been around for almost thirty years. This longstanding Zionsville tradition is a great opportunity to support all Zionsville sports, as proceeds benefit athletics at the high school and also both Zionsville Middle School and Zionsville West Middle School!

At the event, you’ll find a variety of entertainment including food from local vendors, games, and live performances from the high school bands, cheerleaders, and dance team. You’ll also find young Zionsville athletes from all sports and a strong sense of Eagle pride. We encourage everyone in the community to come out to Eagle Fest to start our varsity football team off on what will be a fantastic season. All ages are welcome and tickets can be purchased by contacting the high school athletic department. Keep your eyes out for local merchants who have tickets available this month! Come enjoy the fun! Go Eagles!
