Spartz, Hale win primaries By Sadie Hunter sadie@youarecurrent.com Clear leaders emerged early in contests for Republican and Democratic nominations to fill the seat of the 5th ELECTION Congressional District seat occupied by Republican Susan Brooks, who isn’t seeking reelection. Brooks’ retirement drew a host of new and wellknown local political figures to seek the seat. Early in the night, Republican Victoria Spartz and Democrat Christina Hale were declared the nominees. Spartz Spartz, Indiana’s District 20 state senator representing Noblesville, beat 14 other Republican candidates. “I would like to thank the great people of Indiana’s 5th Congressional District for placing their trust in me to be their nominee for Congress,” Spartz said in a statement. “I also want to thank my family and supporters who spent countless hours helping me. My candidacy, and tonight’s victory, also prove that the American Dream is alive and

well, and voters want a representative who will defend it. As Margaret Thatcher once said, ‘Europe was created by history. America was created by philosophy.’ I would add by the philosophy of freedom.” Hale, a former state representative, beat four other Democratic candidates, including Carmel resident Dee Thornton. “Our community is facing unprecedented challenges, and I’m committed to taking action on the issues most critical to families across (the 5th District),” Hale said in a statement. “Whether it’s the lack of access to affordable health care during Hale a global pandemic, or the economic crisis that has forced over half a million Hoosiers to file for unemployment, our problems are too grave to waste time on partisan politics.” Spartz and Hale will face off in the Nov. 3 general election. Libertarian Ken Tucker also is running for the 5th District. For more on the candidates, visit spartzforcongress.com, haleforcongress. com and aguyfromindiana.com.

SUMMER CAMPS IN CRISIS Current in Westfield

www.currentinwestfield.com

An interview with Jon Beight Director at Twin Lakes Camp in Hillsboro Indiana.

How long have you been the director at Twin Lakes? I started at Twin Lakes in 2000 after serving on the Camp Board for two years. Camping has been a part of my life since being a camper at age 10. After my freshman year in college, I was a summer counselor.

When did you realize camp wasn’t happening? Five days after Indiana’s stay-at-home order was put in place, a large camp in Texas announced they had canceled their summer camps. That sent shock waves around the camping industry. Nearly everyone thought it was way too soon and was an overreaction. The “Back on Track Indiana” plan with camps starting June 14, meant we would need to cancel our first week of camp. About 80% of our parents switched their children to another week. We met with the health department and 10 of our camp’s volunteer Registered Nurses (many who were working in hospitals treating COVID patients at the time). They developed a Communicable Disease plan to keep our campers safe. We were feeling good about camp for 2020. We started ordering our regular camp supplies, as well as the extra supplies needed for increased hygiene and sanitation.

On May 22, five days before summer camp counselors were to arrive at camp the updated CDC guidelines made the decision for us. Camp was canceled! What are you hearing from other camp directors? Most all overnight residential camps have canceled. Special needs camps and camps tied to universities were the first to cancel, and they did that fairly early. Many camps are struggling to find camp staff, as recruiting was hindered by the closing of colleges and universities. If you use volunteers you might be able to salvage some camping weeks. Those camps that have professionally trained summer counselors are facing the biggest challenges.

What’s the financial impact of COVID on camps? We have definitely taken a huge financial hit as we’ve had to return deposits and camp payments from our campers, which is understandable since so many

people are unemployed or worried about their future employment. Never in my wildest dreams did I think illness would affect camp like it has these last 12 weeks. Much of the money that we had collected since the end of last summer had been spent on recruiting campers and staff, building maintenance, grounds upkeep and payroll for our year-round staff members with the anticipation of a full summer.

Many camps are experiencing the same loss of revenue. The last weekend of February was most camps last source of income, except for donations.

Families can also plan their own excursions off the camp property. Horseback riding at Turkey Run, canoe trips down the Sugar Creek, touring the covered bridges in Parke County, 4x4 rentals in Attica or renting a pontoon boat on Raccoon Lake.

Would you like to be involved in financially supporting youth camping in Indiana? Contact the camp director of any Indiana youth camp to help.

For more information about Twin Lakes Camp Visit their website at www.twinlakescamp.com Call the camp office at 765-798-4000. 1451 W Twin Lakes Rd Hillsboro, IN 47949

It has halted Twin Lakes building program for a new activities center that sits half completed. What was looking like a record year of growth and finances has turned out to be the opposite.

What are you doing to combat the canceling of traditional summer programs? We are changing from a traditional youth camp to a family vacation facility. Families are going be able to rent cabins this summer. I am proud of our team and thankful to God that he has allowed us to be creative in changing so quickly. As we worked through the changes, we also had to work through our faith-based mission. We are excited about our family vacation programing for this summer. God already had 10 of our full time summer staff here training for specialty roles. We are confident we can provide an excellent place for families to find refuge and relax this summer.

How can families plan a stay at Twin Lakes? We are offering both day passes to the camp and overnight family cabin rentals.

Every summer I have parents telling me that they wish they could come to camp. This is their year! Now parents or grandparents can bring their children for the day or stay over 3-7 nights and have a fun experience in our modern, well-equipped cabins. We have all our traditional camp activities available as well as some great meals.

Twin Lakes is offering a tremendous opportunity for a fun, safe, relaxing getaway that will make family memories for years to come.

Make no mistake about it, no citizen has a right to destroy, vandalize or threaten another Hoosier’s safety or property. “Coordinated efforts to unlawfully breaking in and entering, shooting at law enforcement officials and setting fires has taken on a tone of organized crime and will be responded to accordingly.” ISP Supt. Doug Carter said state police would deploy any and all resources during the protests to ensure public safety. He also expressed a desire, during a press conference, to hold himself and other police officials more accountable. ““We are not without sin,” Carter said. As of press time, officials in Boone and Hamilton counties said they had not implemented any additional travel restrictions in response to the executive order.

Compassion and safety at the heart of essential care █

Ascension St. Vincent is fully prepared to care for patients

Ascension St. Vincent is fully prepared to provide all of the care and procedures for important health needs that patients might need urgently, have put off during this time or have been considering. Hospitals, clinics and facilities are now open to deliver care – with the safety precautions to minimize exposure risks. “We believe that compassionate care is safe care, and we’re committed to help keep patients safe when they’re receiving care,” said Jonathan Nalli, Senior Vice President, Ascension, and Ministry Market Executive, Ascension Indiana. “We’ve put strong safety precautions in place to help protect both our patients and our caregivers.” Over the past few weeks, many people postponed care for almost all of their health needs – from elective procedures and surgeries to vaccinations, and from routine checkups to important health screenings. These extraordinary measures were necessary to meet the critical care needs of patients and communities across the state of Indiana. Heightened precautions for patient and caregiver safety Balancing care with caution, Ascension St. Vincent has added strict safety precautions to help protect both patients and caregivers. And, its caregivers continuously monitor

guidance from the CDC and adjust their safety practices accordingly. Precautions include: █ Screening doctors, nurses and care teams before they enter a facility. █ Cleaning and sanitizing all areas extensively and more often. █ Designating separate emergency triage and care areas for patients with symptoms of COVID-19. █ Maintaining proper social distancing in waiting rooms. █ Continuing to wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE).

The risks of putting off care Emergency rooms across the country are reporting fewer cases of heart attacks, strokes and serious injuries. But these critical events are still happening. Avoiding care can make these conditions worse or recovery more difficult. For example, delaying care for a stroke, even by a few minutes, can be the difference between recovery and permanent disability. Delaying care for chronic conditions, routine appointments and screenings could also impact a person’s long-term health. Ascension St. Vincent has added new options for care, including telehealth.

Getting health back on track Whether it’s rescheduling a delayed visit or scheduling care for a new health concern, overall health is too important to delay. “Our doors have remained open to patients who have needed us urgently,” said Julie Manas, President, St. Vincent North Region, a part of Ascension Indiana, “and we are now scheduling for all types of care. Regular follow-up visits, screenings, surgeries – whatever the need, we’re here for you.” From the routine, to important care and emergency care, patients can get the care they need, when they need it, even now: █ If you have a health concern, call your doctor

to talk about the best option for your care. █ If you have a chronic condition, call your doctor or go to GetStVincentCare.com to find a doctor. █ Contact your doctor today about any surgeries that have been delayed or need to be rescheduled. █ Contact your doctor about non-emergency procedures that you might have put off or have been considering for you and your family. █

If you have a medical emergency, emergency rooms are always available 24/7 and can see you urgently. Let your emergency care team know you’re on the way –

make an ER appointment online. If you are experiencing a life-threatening emergency or difficulty breathing, go directly to the ER or dial 911. More ways to receive care – in-person and virtual visits Ascension St. Vincent has added more options for receiving care, including new ways to see doctors by phone or online, when it makes sense. For routine or non-emergency care needs, it’s always best to discuss the right option for care with a doctor. Here for patients and communities – and not going anywhere It has been a difficult time to take care of healthcare needs. Ascension St. Vincent won’t stop working to keep Indianapolis and surrounding communities healthy while continuing to care for those who need it most. Now and always, Ascension St. Vincent is here for patients and families.

TO OUR READERS: Thank you for supporting Current in Westfield and its advertisers by reading our edition each week. We fully understand how fortunate we are to have the level of loyal readership we enjoy (92 percent in each of 13,420 households – SMARI, Inc.). We are proud of and grateful for being the purveyor of local news and information that, in many cases, cannot otherwise be consumed. Whatever your reason or reasons for continuing to use Current in Westfield as your local news source, your support means the world to us. Now, we have a favor to ask. In light of the recent economic downturn and rising postal and newsprint increases, we have decided to institute a voluntary pay program. Believe it or not, your help with a $25 contribution for one year of receiving Current in Westfield

will make a significant difference to our employees and to our operation. If you’re curious as to how that $25 affects Current, it takes $0.49 per paper to produce and deliver, and the $25 equates to $0.48 per piece. We will continue, unabated, to deliver quality and factual news and information to Westfield, and we will continue to support the community’s not-for-profits with advertising at no cost as we have since our founding in 2006. On that subject, we surpassed $2.5 million in donated advertising space at the end of 2019 for all our markets, and we’re not stopping there. We’re honored to play that role. Twenty-five dollars may not seem like a game changer to many in our midst, but it would make a huge, positive impact for Current in Westfield and its locally generated journalism.

Again, this purely is voluntary. To those inclined to participate, we sincerely thank you. To those who may wish to consider before doing so, the same. And to those who, for whatever reason, cannot participate, we understand and respect that and your contemplation. In the meantime, we will continue doing what we started back in 2006, and that’s PROVING NEWSPAPERS WORK and seeing to it that Current in Westfield arrives uninterrupted in your mailboxes each week. Thank you for your consideration, and we sincerely salute you for reading the local journalism Current in Westfield provides.

THE FAIR GOES ON

From left, Gracie Hackman, Ella Huff, Addison Huff, Mason Kingdon, Jesse Bishop, Jackson Davis and Audrey Davis are raising pigs on Ben Davis’ farm.

Westfield man provides spot for city families to raise pigs; fair to return with restrictions By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com Westfield resident Ben Davis knows that city residents who want to raise pigs for the Hamilton County 4-H COVER STORY Fair likely don’t have adequate space to do it. That’s why he offered his 20-acre farm in Sheridan to allow five families with eight kids to raise their pigs for the 4-H Fair. Half of the participants are in their first year of Davis 4-H, and half are veteran 4-Hers. Davis grew up on a pig farm and competed in the Hamilton County 4-H Fair before his family moved to Hagerstown, where he competed in the Wayne County 4-H Fair and met his wife, Gretchen, who

also showed pigs. Now their kids Jackson, 13, and Audrey, 11, are competing in the Hamilton County 4-H Fair. “It’s a 10-year program and the soonest you can start is third grade, and it goes up to their senior year,” Davis said. “There’s lots of different projects, and what we’re doing out here is hogs. I have a little farm, and most people in the city don’t have a place to take care of pigs.” This is the first year Davis is welcoming

more families onto the farm. He and fellow Westfield resident Chad Huff have been allowing their kids to use the farm to raise pigs for about three years. Davis’ kids are fourth-generation 4-Hers. Kids typically raise pigs to fit what consumers prefer in pork products, such as chops, loins and hams. Judges are brought in from outside the county to judge the pigs. The pig farm has largely been unaffected by the COVID-19 pandemic. Kids still visit the farm every third day for six to eight hours a week for 12 weeks. However, the pandemic has affected the 4-H Fair, which will not be open to the public this year. The fair will only be open to 4-Hers, their families, staff and volunteers. If a COVID-19 hotspot were to develop, the fair would become virtual. The fair is scheduled for July 16-20, and non-animal projects will be closed-judging. Livestock shows will be in a show-andgo format, in which animals won’t stay overnight. Davis, who is on the fair council, said the pigs typically arrive on the Wednesday of fair week and are judged on Saturday. This year, pigs will arrive on Saturday and go home the same day. Despite the restrictions, Davis said it’s

important for kids to experience the 4-H Fair. “These kids work so hard. It’s like doing a project and not getting it completed (if there was no fair),” Davis said. Kids can sell one pig at an auction, which will be held virtually. The auction is a way for kids to recoup some of the money spent on purchasing and raising the pigs for the fair. On Davis’ farm, kids raise either Berkshire or Duroc pigs. For more about the fair, call 317-776-0854 or visit extension.purdue.edu/hamilton.

TAKE-AWAY FROM 4-H Parents recognize the multiple benefits having their children participate in the 4-H Fair. Brian Bishop, a Carmel resident whose child is raising a pig on Ben Davis’ property for the fair, said he grew up in 4-H. “I wanted my kids to have this experience, and this would not be possible without what Ben is doing for us,” Bishop said. “It takes a lot of hard work and commitment, but there’s also a connection of taking care of an animal and watching it grow.”

ESSAY

LETTER

Lockdown insight

Equity for all

Commentary by Terry Anker The list of guilty pleasures we indulge has only been fed by our prolonged isolation. If we are prone to sneak occasional ice cream, being locked in with a gallon or two of our favorites calling out to us from the kitchen freezer just a few feet away urges us to partake. Likewise, the missing commute, workout and laundry duties give us a bit more time. Although learning another language, advancing in our yoga studies or mastering the wood lathe may have been our hope, as we find ourselves on the precipice of returning to organized society, and the soaring ratings prove, most of us have burned a good deal of time watching old-fashioned television. It turns out there are countless channels with all manner of programming, the point of which is difficult to discern. Still, quick cuts, abjectly profane topics and the good-looking people and place are well-suited to capture our attention. A few picks are shows that aggregate video clips of folks doing self-destructive or silly things that have then been posted to the internet. People jump from rooftops into backyard pools. People attempt to ride grocery carts down flights of stairs. People wear masks to frighten their grandmothers. Sometimes, it is difficult to distinguish between its absurdity, its cruelty or its legitimate insight about the human condition. Among the latter, a recent clip showed a college-aged student working alongside his peers while becoming increasingly agitated by the failure of his laptop to comply with his desired direction. Soon, his frustration escalated from begging, to yelling, to beating and, ultimately, to obliterating his expensive Apple. Certainly, the computer deserved it. We all can agree that they are exasperating. But what victory is there in winning the battle but losing the war?

Hail the soulless victor! Commentary by Danielle Wilson My youngest announced the other day that if my husband Doo and I were thrown into the “Hunger Games” with HUMOR all of her aunts and uncles, I’d be the most likely to emerge the victor. “Yes!” I shouted, fist-pumping. Oh, but wait. Is that a good thing? “Explain yourself.” So she proceeded to elaborate on how I could defeat 10 men taller than 6 feet and nine women who’ve survived pregnancy and childbirth. For starters, I apparently have the cold-blooded temperament necessary to deliver fatal blows to my opponents. “You’re not emotional, Mom. You’ll do what needs to be done and move on.” Hmmm. I guess that’s a positive. Second, she felt that with my ultra-competitive nature, I simply wouldn’t allow another competitor to win. I do recall once telling Doo that I’d rather die than let him beat me in a triathlon. I wasn’t joking. If I’m gonna lose, he’ll literally have to leap over my dead body to cross that finish line first.

“Plus, you’re really tough mentally and physically. I don’t think you’d last long in ‘Naked and Afraid’ because you don’t have the body fat, but you’re scrappy. Hunger, dehydration, indiscriminate shankings ... none of that would bother you.” Again with the soullessness. Compliment or criticism? I honestly couldn’t tell. But clearly she’d given this considerable thought, because next up were the many reasons everyone else would lose. Too nice, too needy, too social, too cerebral. In her mind, I’m the perfect blend of resourcefulness, resilience and readiness to kill. In these uncertain and seemingly apocalyptic times, it’s somewhat comforting to know where I stand. “Hunger Games” victor! Peace out.

“I apparently have the cold-blooded temperament necessary to deliver fatal blows to my opponents. ‘You’re not emotional, Mom.’”

Editor, I know I can never really understand what it’s like to be an African American in our country today, but I can still be outraged at the injustice and racism that continue to be a stain on our nation. This past month has shown again that we have a deep and systemic problem in the way some of our citizens are treated. I know many of us are hurt, upset, angry and even in despair about what has happened. Let’s extend the power of love to each other and let’s stand together; that we all say “no” to hate and injustice and cruelty wherever it manifests itself. We in health care have our own issues of injustice and inequity to address, as we know that African Americans and other minorities have long had issues accessing appropriate care, have higher rates of common chronic illnesses and, more recently, have suffered disproportionate rates of infection and death from COVID-19. At IU Health, we are continuing to provide excellent and compassionate care to all the patients we care for, but we also know there’s more we can do to address health disparities in our communities, and we are working on doing so. Dennis Murphy, president and chief executive officer, Indiana University Health

Matt and Liz Griffin pause outside of Westfield’s I Heart Mac and Cheese restaurant. (Submitted photo)

I Heart Mac and Cheese opens By Anna Skinner anna@youarecurrent.com A new business recently opened in Westfield, the first of its kind in the Midwest. I Heart Mac and Cheese, a NEW BIZ chain of 17 restaurants, mostly in Georgia and New York, is at 637 E. Ind. 32. The franchise is owned by Matt Griffin. “The reason we chose Westfield is my wife (Liz) was a police officer in Westfield, and she resigned late last year to do more with the restaurant and stay home with our family,” Matt Griffin said. “And Westfield is just a growing area. She was a police officer there for 18 years, and we only saw it as fitting to start the first (Indiana) franchise there.”

By the end of 2021, there will be a projected 100 I Heart Mac and Cheese franchises across the U.S. Some of the restaurant’s offerings are lobster & white truffle mac, a Philly cheese steak and baked Buffalo chicken, among other items. The Westfield franchise opened June 3. Although it does not have a drive-thru, it is linked with local delivery apps, such as DoorDash and Grubhub. I Heart Mac and Cheese also has vegan and gluten-free options. The Griffins live in Fishers, and Matt Griffin is a Noblesville Police Dept. patrol officer. A ribbon cutting is scheduled for 11 a.m. June 17. Ten percent of that day’s proceeds will be donated to the Westfield Youth Assistance Program. For more, visit iheartmacandcheese.com.

Contacts: Safe and sterile Commentary by Dr. Jeremy Ciano If there was ever a time to consider switching to daily disposable contact lenses, it’s now. With COVID-19 domVISION inating every conversation and news cycle, we all understand the importance of washing our hands and surfaces. Repeated cleaning is good, but sterile is better. Think about it. Given the option, would you prefer to put in a contact lens that you have “washed” or one that was directly removed from the sterile packaging? I am not here to bash your personal hygiene techniques or the contact lens cleaning solution of your choice. Regardless of your efforts or product choice, however, it can’t compete with sterile. Daily disposable contacts are fresh, clean, thin, light, comfortable and sterile. I can’t recommend that modality enough. My wife and kids are all in daily disposables. It is by far our first recommendation for all adults, and it is the only recommendation we have for children at Little Eyes. We always joke that it passes the “mom test” with flying colors!

The only reason why more people haven’t experienced daily disposables is the perceived higher cost. And although they do have a higher up-front cost, the total yearly cost of daily versus monthly contacts aren’t that far apart. When you factor in $200 rebates and the fact that you no longer have to purchase cases and solutions each month, I can make a very strong argument that single-use daily disposable contacts won’t cost you more during the course of a year. And with all of the packaging being recyclable, it’s a win-win for the environment, too. So, give your eye doctor a call and ask for a free sample of daily disposable contact lenses. Once you try it, you will be immediately impressed with the comfort and clarity. But most of all, you will feel safe because of the sterility! Dr. Jeremy A. Ciano, an international lecturer and published author, is a Current Publishing columnist. For more information or to ask a question, he may be emailed at DrCiano@ Revolution-EYES.com.

Indiana 10th-worse state for COVID-19 health care infrastructure — The COVID-19 pandemic has exposed weaknesses in the nation’s health care system, from supplies to staffing to bed counts, but issues have been far from uniform across the U.S. The WalletHub website recently released its report on the States with the Best Health Infrastructure for Coronavirus. To identify which states have the best health infrastructure, WalletHub compared the 50 states across 14 key metrics. Indiana ranked 10th-worst among state. Source: WalletHub.com

Homemade face mask care — Homemade masks are definitely susceptible to viruses. Wearing a mask reduces the concentration of virus particles that can be inhaled from respiratory droplets, which in turn reduces the transmission of COVID-19, but masks can also carry the virus. The Centers for Disease Control recommends washing your mask at least once a day. Machine washing is optimal, and the material of your face mask will determine the temperature of the water, at least 140 degrees. Source: MSN.com

Fishers High School’s Legg excited about Songbook Academy selection By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com This summer’s Songbook Academy summer intensive will have a different feel. Instead of being conducted MUSIC at the Palladium at the Center for the Performing Arts in Carmel, it will be presented in an online format from July 12 to 18 due to the coronavirus pandemic. Emily Legg, who will be a senior at Fishers High School in the fall, is still thrilled to be selected as one of the 40 vocalists from across the nation. The group includes three Zionsville Community High School students, Hayden Elefante, Lily Cross and Mahesh Gupta; two Carmel High School students, Emily Chrzanowski and Cara Nowlin; and Noblesville High School student Leah Spurlock. “I was so incredibly grateful to have the opportunity to be one of the finalists for Songbook Academy,” Legg said. “I watched so many performances on YouTube from previous years and was so amazed by all of the talented people who have attended in the past. I’m so excited to have the opportunity to grow as a performer as well as learn from the amazing coaches and talented attendees. It’s been really inspiring to learn about the Great American songbook and how it has impacted music as we know it today. “Although I am disappointed that it cannot be in-person this year, I think that there are still so many amazing opportunities available for us online. Regardless

of the online format, I’m so honored to have this opportunity to learn, grow and perform.” The Songbook Academy, in its 11th year, is the only youth music intensive focused on standards from the worlds of jazz, Broadway, Hollywood and Tin Pan Alley. The 40 finalists will take part in an interactive experience of professional vocal training, performance coaching, workshops, daily social activities and educational masterclasses with a star-studded team of mentors led by five-time Grammy Award nominee and Songbook Foundation Founder Michael Feinstein. “While we are saddened we can’t gather on campus this year, we are guided by our first priority: Ensuring the safety and well-being of our students, faculty, staff, volunteers, guests and the entire Songbook Academy community,” stated Christopher Lewis, executive director of the Great American Songbook Foundation. “Fortunately, our staff and teaching faculty have been working proactively since mid-March

to develop a plan that preserves the quality, the camaraderie and the personalized nature of the experience.” In addition to Feinstein and the vocal coaches and music directors who will work with the finalists, this year’s guest mentors include pianist/arranger Scott Bradlee, founder of the genre-blending Postmodern Jukebox video series and touring production; Tony and Grammy Award-nominated actress Ashley Park, whose Broadway work includes “Mean Girls,” “Grand Horizons,” “The King and I” and “Sunday in the Park with George”; actor/singer Faith Prince, a multiple Tony Award nominee and Best Actress winner for her role in “Guys and Dolls”; and ninetime Grammy winner and 17-time Grammy nominee Janis Siegel of The Manhattan Transfer. Other names will be announced soon. Although health guidelines prohibit the customary schedule of public performances during Academy Week, many of the educational sessions will be available for live public viewing on Facebook and YouTube. The week will culminate July 18 in an all-day performance showcase hosted by Feinstein and streamed online for families, friends and the public to enjoy. More information and a schedule of events are available at TheSongbook.org/ SongbookAcademyOnline. This year’s application process drew entries from hundreds of students representing 28 states. The Top 40 finalists selected by the admissions panel hail from 16 states.

Center for Performing Arts seeks input By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com The Center for the Performing Arts is attempting to gauge how comfortable potential audience PERFORMANCE members will be in returning to performances in the coming months. President/Chief Executive Officer Jeffrey McDermott said the response rate has been strong from the survey, which was sent to patrons. The Center has been closed since mid-March because of the coronavirus pandemic. “We want to gain peoples’ thoughts about what their concerns are,” he said. “When we open back up, it’s going to be a little different, just as different for restaurants and businesses. We want to control expectations. We think the opening should go pretty seamlessly.” The staff is in the final stages of creating a document about reopening procedures and protocols. “It sets up for the future in terms of trying to be able to pivot with each new change we encounter and be ready to take any upturns or downturns in what might come,” McDermott said. Staff has been working remotely but will return July 6. Educational programming and some rental events will start first, McDermott said. “Our resident companies will restart their programming, so we’ll start to ramp back up,” he said. “It won’t be a full schedule right away. Our patrons and our resident companies’ patrons have to get acclimated to the new normal. Larger events will start a little later in the year.” McDermott said the Center plans to learn from smaller programing. “It will certainly be a somewhat abbreviated Center Presents (2020-21) season, but we will still come back strong,” he said. “I’m going to anticipate there is still going to be some social distancing involved. We are working on how seating will work within the venues as well.” In other performing arts news, the Cool Creek Concert Series will not be held this summer at Westfield’s Cool Creek Park.

The Fishers Arts Council has transitioned to the virtual world as restrictions are still in place due to the COVID-19 panART demic. The organization hasn’t let the pandemic affect its offerings but is connecting artists in different ways. “We have engaged the artists in what we call a Monday 2 Monday challenge, where we give them a set of two options like hot and cold or tranquil and energetic and have them submit art that represents that,” Fishers Arts Council President Tom Rich said. “There’s not a winner or anything, but it gives them an opportunity to keep art in front of everybody and, in some cases, sell some art.” The Fishers Arts Council website has an online gallery with artwork that is usually displayed in Fishers City Hall. Other actions the arts council has taken is establishing its ASSET: Artist Lecture Series, a four-part series to engage artists with what they do and how they get their work in front of gallery owners. The next ASSET: Artist Lecture Series will be Inside the Gallery World June 25.

For in-person events, the Hamilton County Artists’ Association is scheduled for the July artists to be on display at Fishers City Hall, 1 Municipal Dr. In addition, the first-ever juried exhibit for artists in Fishers and Hamilton County will be in October at Fishers City Hall. Spark! Of Creativity will be June 27. Spark!Fishers was canceled this year. Several virtual classes will be offered from 3 p.m. to 8 p.m. June 27. Classes include drawing, painting, stoneware and acting. Materials are available for free or for a donation. For more, visit fishersartscouncil.org.

Jon E. Gee shares experience By Mark Ambrogi mark@youarecurrent.com Jon E. Gee, longtime bass player for John Mellencamp, is sharing his expertise with students in the area as well MUSIC as nationally in a new online program. Gee and his wife, Sondra, who the students call Mrs. Gee, are directors of the Carmel Music Academy. Because of the coronavirus pandemic, lessons are offered online. The academy was scheduled to reopen June 8 but will continue online private lessons. Anyone taking lessons online or in-person can access free Cabin Fever Busters sessions on Facebook Live. The programming, from music schools across the nation, has offered instrument lessons, young children music classes, an opportunity to be in a virtual choir and rock ’n’ roll name-that-tune tournaments. “It gives them a way to try a different instrument or learn how to restring your instrument,” Sondra said. Gee does interviews on his career, which also included a stint with Ted Nugent before joining Mellencamp’s band in 1999.

Sondra said Carmel Music Academy, 13295 Illinois St., has larger rooms, so it’s easier to social distance for lessons. There are 12 instructors. “Parents can come in and sit in on a lesson if they want,” Sondra said. But students who don’t feel comfortable returning can continue with online private lessons. Sondra said she is planning some outdoor concerts in the parking lot later this summer. For more, visit carmelmusicacademy.com.

Tavern on South

Commentary by Anna Skinner Address: 423 W. South St., Indianapolis What to get: Blackened cod tacos Price: $10.50 Anna’s take: Tavern on South has an abbreviated menu as it gradually reopens because of the COVID-18 pandemic, but all the items I tried were still delicious. I started with the Chilled Shrimp Martini ($13), an elegant display of shrimp around a martini glass filled with cocktail sauce and horseradish pesto sauce. I sampled the Tavern salad ($9), a refreshing mix of field greens, candied asparagus, sweet and spicy wal-

nuts, cucumber, dried cherries, goat cheese and granny smith apple vinaigrette. My favorite item was the blackened cod tacos ($10.50) — three wheat tortillas with Cajun and Old Bay-seasoned cod, lettuce, chili aioli, white cheddar and smoked tomato salsa.   Suggested pairings: I loved sipping the Barrel-Aged Cherry Vanilla Manhattan ($11) while checking out the Indianapolis skyline.

Current provides excellent value and reach with both its print and digital offerings. I feel confident Current’s weekly newspaper helps O’Malia’s Living draw customers from across the six northern markets it covers. The targeted email campaigns increase visitors to my website, giving me the opportunity to gain new customers. These results are why I have Current’s print and digital solutions in my advertising plans for 2020.
