CruZionsville returns June 4

Dispatches

By Heather Lusk • news@currentzionsville.com

This year, automobile lovers will be able to celebrate Indiana’s heritage in automobile manufacturing along with a bevy of Porsche cars vehicles during the annual CruZionsville rolling into town on June 4. The largest Porsche gathering in the state is simultaneously a fundraiser for Alzheimer’s research, raising more than $50,000 in the past five years. In celebration of the state’s bicentennial, CruZionsville has been designated an Official Legacy Project, supporting Indiana’s community projects and programs. Five Hoosier-built automobiles are anticipated to share space with the Porsche vehicles including Stutz, Auburn, Cord and Studebaker. A program by Dennis Horvath, noted author and expert on Indiana-built cars, at the Brick Street Inn is free to the public with first-come, first-served seating. The day will begin with a parade at 10 a.m. leaving from the Stonegate Meeting House. “It will be an opportunity for people to see another part of Zionsville that they haven’t seen before,” Steve Tarr, event organizer, said. The vehicles will travel east on Oak Street to reach their final parking spot on Main Street where they can be viewed until 3 p.m. The day is filled with art projects for kids, automobile judging for car lovers and a food eating contest for all to enjoy. The automobiles that range from 1950s to new are judged based on car class with a Best in Show prize selected by the public. After inspecting the cars, hearing them run and speaking with owners about their vehicles, a pre-selected group of young judges will present the Youth Award to their favorite Porsche. “Cars are art,” Tarr said. “We want to create an

appreciation of art in all forms.” CruZionsville products can be found throughout town from a special blend of Inga’s popcorn, to Hopwood Cellar’s wine, to an original blend of B. Happy Peanut Butter. Proceeds from shirts, signed posters, visors and a silent auction will go toward Alzheimer’s research. Tarr appreciates that the event brings together so many different facets of Zionsville. “We feel that this is a community event,” said Tarr. “It’s really getting the community together to be a part of this fun family-focused activity.” Learn more at CruZionsville.com.

Whitestown annexes 620 acres

Rotary Club of Zionsville recognizes student leaders

By Chris Bavender • news@currentzionsville.com The fastest-growing town in Indiana is expanding again. The Indiana Supreme Court on May 5 declined to hear a case legal involving 620 acres in Perry Township, which allows Whitestown to annex it. The land was not included in the portion of Perry Township that became part of Zionsville through reorganization in 2015. The annexation started in 2012, and a $25 million Whitestown wastewater plant was scheduled to be built on the land. Several residents fought the plan, arguing it would increase property taxes. In August 2014, a trial court ruled in favor of the landowners, but the Court of Appeals reversed the decision in July 2015. The wastewater plant opened in September 2015. “The reason for the annexation was because the town owned the ground, and it was unincorporated, and we wanted the plant to be in the town border,” Whitestown Town Manager Dax Norton said. “The second reason was growth. For the fifth year we have been named the fastest-growing community in the state. That area is approximately 15 1/2 square miles and the Ronald Reagan (Parkway) will come into Boone County through that property. I am sure there will be some sort of com-

mercial growth adjacent to that, which will add to our tax base and keep taxes low and allow us to provide services at a high level.” Norton said the town has no intention of rezoning the area. “That is up to the landowners. If someone sells their ground and wants to rezone it from agriculture to commercial or general business, then so be it,” he said. “We don’t intend on changing any of the zoning.” The decision and resolution of the case is a relief, he added. “I am very excited about the ruling. We have no cases in front of any courts now, so it’s good to not be spending money on those fees,” Norton said.

The Rotary Club of Zionsville recently recognized three Zionsville Community High School students with the Rotary Youth Leadership Award. This award recognizes students for their community involvement and leadership capability. It includes a weekend retreat at Camp Tecumseh with other award winners from Central Indiana, where students can improve their teamwork and leadership skills.

The Zionsville Education Foundation awarded more than $25,000 worth of grants to Zionsville Community Schools teachers April 25. education Eight community members and seven board members considered grant applications and made the final decisions through a review, scoring and evaluation process. This year, ZEF received $41,000 in grant applications. “The board sees how hard it is to make decisions, because each year more is asked of us than we can fund,” ZEF Executive Director Tracy Phillips said. Phillips said innovation and forward-thinking are essential to receiving a ZEF grant, and Pleasant View Elementary’s Uke Can Do It grant application is a great example. After many years of fourth graders learning music theory on the traditional recorder, music teacher Rebecca Hampton wanted to implement a new trend — the ukulele. “Innovation doesn’t always equate technology,” Phillips said. “This is the perfect grant and example of thinking out of the box.” Each year ZEF hosts a Fall Frolic fundraiser to share its mission. This year’s event will be Nov. 5 at the Indianapolis Executive Airport. Individual donations and corporate sponsorships are accepted to fund the fall and spring grants. “Every single parent can say a program by ZEF has touched their child,” Phillips said.

Sometimes I still get my duds on Commentary by Ward Degler

A couple hundred years later the Dutch talked about a “dudman,” which referred to a scarecrow or the old clothes on it. By the time I started climbing into my duds and saddling up, the country was deep into the Great Depression, and a lot of folks were wearing old clothes. As the years wore on and the world moved into yet another war, the term duds took on another meaning – bad ammunition. Bombs that failed to go off. I don’t remember when my dad stopped rousing me mornings to get my duds on. Probably about the time I waltzed into high school and was suddenly way too cool to be a simple cowboy anymore. I think for a time I preferred my mother’s call to simply “get up and get dressed.” Later, however, and sometimes yet today when the sun comes up in a certain indefinable way, I still get a hankering to simply roll out, get my duds on and saddle up.

When I was 5 or 6 years old, my dad took me to see a cowboy movie. I don’t recall the title, but I think the hero was played by Randolph Scott. He filled a lot plain talk of white-hat roles in those days, and I have a vivid memory of him sitting on his horse with that craggy face of his turned toward the sunset at the end of the film. The thing that most stuck with me about that movie, however, was an early scene where Scott walked into a darkened bunkhouse just as the first streaks of dawn crept over the horizon and said to one of the slumbering ranch hands, “Rise and shine, buckaroo, it’s time to roll out, get your duds on and saddle up.” I might have forgotten all about that early movie, except that my dad took to waking me in the morning for school with the admonition to “roll out, get my duds on and saddle up.” I guess I always thought those words came out of the old west and that “duds” simply referred to the clothes that cowboys wore. Turns out, however, that the word “duds” came out of Middle English in the 17th century, “dude,” meaning old clothes or rags.

Camp Invention returns By Chris Bavender • news@currentzionsville.com For the fourth year, Boone County students entering grades one through six can enrich their summer at Camp Invention. The weeksummer long adventure encourages creativity through STEM learning – science, technology, engineering and mathematics. “It is important for children to be engaged and have a positive attitude toward the activities they are performing. Unfortunately, many children equate learning with a negative experience that is tied to completing something that is mandatory,” said Alaina Rutledge, Camp Invention director of education. “At Camp Invention, the children become immersed in the storyline and develop a desire to think, build and create. Since it comes from an internal desire, the learning can be very powerful.” This empowers children to use tools and their own minds to create, Rutledge said, challenging them to think for themselves and “sparking that excitement to explore and discover.” “The children discover that you don’t have to have fancy, expensive equipment to do STEM. You can work with easily available materials,” she said. “They realize STEM is nothing to be afraid of; it is having fun and looking at things in a new way.” This summer’s camp curriculum is called Epic. “The word epic is one of the current pop culture

terms which indicates greatness and how unbelievably awesome something is. We wanted to use language that would resonate with the children and get them excited to dream big and create amazing inventions,” Rutledge said. “Not only is the program epic for the participants, it turned out to be an epic experience for our education team writing and piloting the activities.” Experiences during the week will include: • Epic Park: Children will design and build an ecotourist island destination, complete with towering treehouses that have operating lifts and innovative games, gear and nature-based adventures for tourists to experience • CrickoBot: Children will build and take home a DIY solar-powered cricket • The Lab: Where Pigs Fly: Featuring experiments ranging from demolition and cup tower explosions to programming and coding, and much more • I Can Invent: Maker Studio: Campers will take apart machines and devices, and then repower the components Camps are scheduled for June 13-17 at the Zionsville Community Schools Freshman Center, 1000 Mulberry St., Zionsville; and June 27 to July 1 at Traders Point Christian Academy, 6600 S.

ProCartz makes custom golf carts for IndyCar drivers, others By Ann Marie Shambaugh • AnnMarie@youarecurrent.com All eyes will be on the 33 cars circling the historic oval during the Indianapolis 500, but a bigger fleet of much slower vehicles are just as important to pulling COVER STORY off a successful event behind the scenes. The many teams that make the Greastest Spectacle in Racing a reality frequently rely on golf carts to efficiently get them from one end of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway to the other. And one Carmel-based company has provided several of them. Zionsville couple Mike and Pau Nelson are the owners of ProCartz, and they expect to have more than 20 of their golf carts at the IMS on race day. Many basic models are rented to move race-day staff and guests quickly around the grounds of the 2 1/2-mile oval, while others have been customized for current and former drivers. ProCartz sponsored a cart for Andretti Autosport IndyCar Series rookie driver Alexander Rossi, a California native who now lives in Indianapolis. The cart is black – like his Honda racecar – and features his name and number, 98. “Obviously, the facility here at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway is pretty big, and it’s a busy schedule here. You’re kind of all over the place,” Rossi said. “To have something that’s functional and looks cool at the same time is great.”

The start line

The Nelsons have been in the business since 1999, when Mike founded Pit-Pro to provide top-of-the-line, customized carts for race teams. When several central Indiana municipalities began allowing golf carts on public streets in recent years, their demand and client base spiked. In 2014, they changed the company name to ProCartz and opened a showroom at 9850 N. Michigan Rd. in Carmel. “Golf carts have exploded on the north side of Indianapolis, so two years ago, we brought the shop up here, and it has absolutely taken off,” Mike said. Carmel and Zionsville do not allow golf carts on streets, but the Nelsons hope that will soon change. As cities and towns promote walkable, sustainable developments, golf carts offer a great transportation alternative, they said. “One of our ulterior motives is to get Zionsville to ultimately

look at allowing golf carts on the street. It’s the perfect town for it,” Mike said. “We have parking issues in Zionsville, and therefore any cars that we can eliminate – and park three golf carts instead – would be a better thing.” ProCartz offers carts that range from basic models to street-legal vehicles, which are required to have a license plate, seatbelts, turn signals and other safety features. Their carts can be customized in a variety of ways. They’ve created carts that look like old Chevrolet trucks, New York Yankees uniforms and a pirate ship. “It’s not about what I can do, honestly. It’s what your checkbook is going to allow me to do,” Mike said. “The sky is the limit.”

Watching history

The month of May is among the busiest times of the year for ProCartz, as warmer weather reminds clients to bring in their carts for maintenance or encourage others to buy one. This year – with the 100th running of the Indianapolis 500 – has been especially busy, Mike said. After spending so much time helping others prepare for the big race, Mike plans to enjoy it as a fan, as he has most years since he was a boy growing up in Logansport. Pau, who grew up in Mexico, has also attended the race in recent years. “It’s just very exciting to see the final product after being involved,” Pau said. “I go more for the experience than for the actual race. It’s just so exciting, and the people are so wild.” Mike and Pau met through Up With People, an organization

that provides opportunities for travel, service learning, performance art and more. They’ve been married for 20 years, but when Pau first told her friends and family she was moving to Indiana, they gave her a blank stare until she mentioned the Indianapolis 500. “It has such a history and such a following,” she said. “That’s how people knew where I was going.”

Zionsville says no to golf carts – for now

Many cities, such as Lebanon, Noblesville and Westfield, have adopted ordinances in recent years to allow golf carts on public streets. Zionsville Mayor Tim Haak said the town considered the issue approximately five years ago. “For many reasons, primarily safety related, the town council along with the safety board, decided not to allow them,” Haak said. “We have had very few requests for allowing golf carts, so I don’t see any changes in the near future.” Mike Nelson hopes and expects Zionsville will reverse course, eventually, as the trend continues elsewhere. “It’s a matter of (time) in my opinion,” he said. “Zionsville has had a lot of other bigger priorities on its plate than worrying about golf carts right now.”

Prison warden enjoyment

FRO M  THE CO M M U N I TY

Could Clinton lose in Cali? With the Democratic Party seemingly headed for the kind of upheaval the Republican Party finds itself in these days, we find it strange that Dem frontrunner Hillary Rodham Clinton (N.Y.) has refused to debate challenger Sen. Bernie Sanders (Vt.) next month in California. Hold the debate, anyway, and leave her spot open? Just a thought. In our opinion, that would have been her chance to push forward her agenda in a way that might have united the core of the party. Clinton probably will capture the 475 delegates in the June 7 California primary, and that, it seems, will be that. However, any slipup by the candidate or her campaign could propel Sanders even more than ever imagined, and if he were to win the Golden State, that would be an upset of epic proportions. ••• The Republicans’ “presumptive” nominee, Donald Trump (N.Y.), has been fairly quiet of late. Media sources inside and near the Beltway have him meeting with campaign experts – even those of bygone eras – in a girding for the general election race against, we believe, Clinton. That being the case, it should prove to be a battleground, the likes of which we never again may see. When people question Trump’s fitness for the presidency – and this is no endorsement, trust us – we are compelled to point to his multiple successes around the globe and the fact that he is adept at hiring high-quality men and women to get the jobs done. We have to assume it would be the same with his cabinet. Brian Kelly, publisher, and Steve Greenberg, general manager, are co-owners of Current Publishing, LLC.

Commentary by Danielle Wilson

Virtues and vices Commentary by Terry Anker We don’t talk much about virtues these days. And, the concept of vice has been turned into little more than the moniker for the squad of government enforcers assigned to keep humanity out of the gutter. But, for centuries, we all would have talked, a lot, about virtue and even some about vice. As soon as we humans could spend a bit of our time doing more than trying to stay alive, we have mused on those conditions of being that could help us to become the best that we might be. Plato, Shakespeare, Confucius, Mohamed and Jesus Christ were all among the voices guiding and challenging our thinking – helping us to frame those characteristics most likely to put us on the path to an ethical and soul-fulfilling life. Prudence, justice, temperance and courage framed the classical understanding of virtue. Vice, likewise morphing across time and continent, has more-or-less been settled

as defined as something degrading society or the social order. Closer to home, it is accepted as something degrading to our own health and wellbeing. With shifting morays, our understanding of virtue and vice has likewise been reconsidered. Yet, in recent years, we seem to shun the concepts. Perhaps, our desire to be perceived as open-minded has led us to avoid the tags at all cost. Too often, we refuse to pursue virtue for fear that it might alienate others who fail to see the value in the characteristics. And, we eschew labeling our actions as vices thinking having standards somehow makes us close minded. Shouldn’t we embrace the character traits that matter and understand why? And, shouldn’t we order our lives correspondingly? Terry Anker is an associate editor of Current Publishing, LLC. You may email him at terry@ youarecurrent.com.

Q U OTE OF THE  W EEK Givers have to set limits because takers rarely do.

– Henry Ford

Prison is tough, for inmates at least. My husband and I are rather enjoying our term as wardens. We’ve grounded humor our oldest, and he is seriously struggling to adjust to life behind bars. Attica! Make no mistake, Inmate 7 is guilty. We warned him about keeping up his grades, and thanks to the internet, we can view them whenever we want. I couldn’t sleep the other night, so I did a cursory background check. Turns out our juvie hasn’t been keeping us in the loop. The following morning, we read the accused his heavily-amended Miranda rights, and then promptly threw him in the can. He received no phone call. That first day of incarceration wasn’t too bad; he got work release for school and to drive his baby sister to dance. But then the weekend arrived, and his confinement took on new meaning. The complaining, whining and general depression soon morphed into desperate requests for shock probation. Denied. Twice. He did the crime. He’s doing the time. Then it got really interesting. Apparently word of his confinement spread quickly among his peeps, and we soon saw various attempts to break him out. While he was mowing the back lawn, for example, two would-be accomplices tried to jump our storm-swollen creek and pass him food (and shivs?). He’s not in solitary, mind you. We let him keep his phone, which basically keeps him in touch with his entire posse. But the arguement of abuse is rampant. Physical labor, lack of junk food and restrictions on electronics make him think he’s being water-boarded. Sorry, Inmate 7. You’ll get three hots and a cot, and you’ll like it. Or not. We don’t really care. In fact, it’s almost entertaining to watch him grapple with the knowledge that he did this to himself. Hopefully, he’ll learn from his experience and make smarter choices next time. If not, we have no problem Shawshank-ing his butt again. Some kids just take longer to figure out how to make parole, and he might be one of them. Peace out. Danielle Wilson is a contributing columnist. You may email her at danielle@ currentincarmel.com.

Georgia on my mind Commentary by Dick Wolfsie We recently went on a vacation with our friends, John and Jane. John has a PhD in statistics, so he predicted there was only a 50/50 probability we’d all still like each humor other afterwards. Some things make trips with other people stressful: too much alcohol, talking politics and driving recklessly. My wife said if I’d stop doing this stuff, the Murphys might travel with us again. I’m paranoid about losing my keys, cell phone, passport and tickets. I continually pat my back and front pockets to be sure I have everything. The TSA agent let me walk right through security because he said no one on his staff could do a better job of patting me down than I had. There were dogs sniffing suitcases at the airport. Mary Ellen was so convinced it was for explosives and not drugs that she made me a sizeable wager. Then, she asked an officer. “The dogs are searching for explosives,” he said, “not drugs.” “Oh, that’s great to hear,” said Mary Ellen … which led to a thorough search of her carryon bag. In Savannah, I was pulled over by a patrol-

man for rolling through a stop sign. Savannah is laid back, and coming to an abrupt halt seemed uncharacteristic of the local pace of life. My passengers thought it was funny I was pulled over going 3 mph. My wife, who normally takes law enforcement very seriously, was snapping photos of me talking to the officer, explaining to him she had shots of me being pulled over in 13 states. I got a warning stating, “there were mitigating circumstances for the infraction,” which either meant I was a sightseeing and didn’t notice the sign, or he was cutting me slack for driving around with three goofy passengers distracting me. Could we travel well with the Murphys again? John applied his statistical acumen to this question, factoring in all related variables. “I can’t give you the specific odds,” said Dr. Murphy, “but chances are we’ll all have a better time if I do the driving.” (Read the full version at www.currentinwestfield.com)

Zionsville nurse honored By Heather Lusk • news@currentzionsville.com A Zionsville resident has earned accolades for her nursing work, recently being named a finalist for the 2016 Inspire Awards and recognized at the Salute to Nurses achievement annual banquet. For 25 years, clinical educator Belinda Wallbank has been in the nursing profession but through the years has moved from a staff nurse position working with patients to an educational role. Her commitment to inspire other nurses to find their best path in nursing helped earn the recognition by the two organizations. “I think part of it is just recognizing that everyone starts somewhere,” Wallbank said. “You’re not born a nurse; you have to become one.” Developing skills and knowledge, she said, takes time and is not innate but needs to be learned in practice. Her role is to assign nurses to an area that she thinks would be a good match and then follow them through the process to ensure a smooth transition. Wallbank was honored at the annual Salute to Nurses banquet last month, receiving one of six special recognition awards, for which there are several hundred nominees from central

Indiana each year. She received the Nurse Educator Award for her work at IU Health Methodist Hospital. She was also a finalist for the 2016 Inspire Awards, honoring individuals who have inspired excellence in the workplace or community through mentoring. Her role in professional development allows her to help those who have chosen the nursing profession but also to impact patients through the nurses with whom she works. “Nursing is an amazing career,” Wallbank said. ”We work hard, but we also have lots of opportunities in our profession.”

With travelers in areas affected by the Zika virus not permitted to donate blood for 28 days after their donations return to the U.S., the Indiana Blood Center is seeing an increase in travel deferrals that had left it approximately 500 units short in May. “We also believe donors who have traveled are self-deferring, Fagan not even showing up to donate, because the deferral is so broad,” said Andrea Fagan, marketing director for the Indiana Blood Center. “Unlike malaria or some other travel deferrals that are specific to regions of a country, Zika is a blanket deferral, all of Mexico, regardless of where you travel. Zika is a daytime-biting mosquito, as well. This means that if you were on a cruise ship passing through an area of active transmission, you are deferred. It’s a very broad deferral.” The Zika deferral began Feb. 16. Fagan

said being in the midst of long holiday weekend, it further weakens the supply as donors are doing other things. To help with that, the organization gave away free Indy 500 Carb Day tickets to encourage donations. “The need for blood is fairly constant, 550 donors are needed each day, and we have minimums and maximums for each type that we keep on our shelves in addition to that which we send to hospitals,” Fagan said. For more on countries affected by Zika, visit cdc.gov/zika/geo/active-countries. html.

Moli Hall juggles duties in ‘Scaler’ By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com As if juggling her roles as actor and producer wasn’t tough enough, Moli Hall has been working alongside her father film and fellow producer, Dan T. Hall, on a new movie. “Being both an actor and a producer on a project is extremely demanding,” Moli said. “As a producer, I have to nitpick all the details of the film, including the acting, which proves to be difficult as I have to try to be impartial with myself, the director/writer, my dad and my co-stars, who have become great friends of mine. Learning to be unbiased with my own acting has been extremely beneficial in my growth as an actor. I’ve learned so much about acting due to being a producer and honestly critiquing my performance.” Moli, a 22-year-old former Carmel resident who is now pursing acting/modeling in Atlanta, is one of the stars of “Scaler, Dark Spirit.” The premiere will be held at 7:30 p.m. June

18 in the IMAX Theatre at the Indiana State Museum. “My dad and I are extremely close, but also, we are both extremely stubborn,” Moli said. “Occasionally, we would adamantly disagree on a line or scene, and I’ve had to learn how to let it go and trust his vision, as ‘Scaler’

really is his brainchild.” Dan, who said he received great creative input from Moli and other actors, said it was loosely based on a paranormal event he was helping film. “At the end, I included some footage from the actual event that kind of spawned all this,” Dan said. Dan, who lives in Broad Ripple, had been filming a documentary on paranormal investigation in a St. Joseph’s, Mo., house a few years ago. A non-practicing Catholic priest had purchased the house. “He had started to remodel and something (paranormal) was released,” Dan said. “He thought he could control it, and I believe it was controlling him.” The cast of “Scaler” also includes Fishers resident Dija Henry and her daughter Selah. “It was an amazing experience as always when working with Dan and the rest of the cast,” Dija said.

Carmel comedian hosts Enchantment Ball By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com

Mike Gardner and his daughter, Helena, 5. (Submitted photo)

Mike Gardner has a special bond with his 5-year-old daughter, Helena. The Carmel resident, a family stand-up comedian, has shared that connection while they travel around the nation to comedy clubs. They’ve enjoyed two elegant daddydaughter dances in Kokomo, where Gardner grew up. Gardner said he believed it was time to have an event like that in Indianapolis, so he started planning the Enchantment Ball, which will debut at the Conrad in Indianapolis from 5:30 to 9 p.m. June 4. The evening includes dinner, dancing and carriage rides. Gardner said the target ages are 3-13, but it’s up to the discretion of the parent. “I really want to make it a night to remember for the girls,” Gardner said. Gardner said the numbers might be low this year, but he sees it growing each year. “It’s an awesome night for dads to bond with their daughters,” Gardner said. “A lot of my mail comes from single mothers

who say ‘I wish my daughter’s dad would do this.’ Women are naturally awesome parents, it’s kind of in their DNA. Guys have to try harder.” The key for him is to be interested in whatever his daughter is, Gardner said. “Right now, it’s dressing up like a princess and being a girly-girl,” Gardner said. Gardner, 32, travels to comedy clubs and corporate events nationally. “I’m getting big enough to the point where I can cherry-pick my gigs and travel less,” Gardner said. “She’s traveled with me on the road for quite awhile. Now it’s traveling for Friday and Saturday shows. When I first started off, it was traveling two weeks at a time.” Gardner shares custody with Helena’s mother, who also lives in Carmel. Helena will enter kindergarten at Carmel Elementary School in August so they will have to scale back their trips. The cost of the Enchantment Ball is $169 per couple. For more, call 317-647-0909. During the event, the girls will fill backpacks for less-fortunate kids.

ZCHS grad works on studio album By Desiree Williams editorial@youarecurrent.com

After graduating from Ball State University in December, Zionsville’s Paul Whitacre has moved onto the next step in his life. His first album, “Coming Of Age,” is set to music release this summer. Whitacre received his first guitar before age 15, but he didn’t feel passionate about music at the time. He got involved with the worship team at his church during high school and college, which was when Whitacre began writing his own songs. The passion grew during Whitacre’s junior year in college when he joined forces with a friend, Clay Langebartels. Langebartels, along with his brother Bryce, have been helping Whitacre produce his first studio album. Titled “Coming Of Age,” the album tells Whitacre’s story of the transitions in his life through high school and college. It consists of 12 original pieces, which he wrote over the course of four years. “They’re ordered in a way that tell the story of me going from being more immature and making bad decisions, to realizing a need for God,” he said. Whitacre didn’t have confidence in his writing until he repaired his relationship with God.

Paul Whitacre, of Zionsville, is working on his album, “Coming of Age.” (Submitted photo)

This gave his songs meaning, he said. “I made it a mission of mine to try to … write music that has a little more substance to it,” Whitacre said. He said he hopes to create another album in a few years and continue growing his music career. “I’ve got a goal of moving down to Nashville and pursuing (music) there within five years,” he said. Whitacre said he hopes the new album will be available on iTunes and Spotify in late July. Learn more at paulwhitacre.com

ISO to perform at Palladium By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra concertmaster and violinist Zachary DePue said he believes the audience is in music for a treat with some upcoming performances. The ISO will perform “Tchaikovsky’s Fourth,” with pianist Garrick Ohlsson, at 3 p.m. June 5 at the Palladium in Carmel. The ISO will also perform this concert at 11 a.m. June 2, 8 p.m. June 3 and 7 p.m. June 4 at the Hilbert Circle Theatre in Indianapolis. “It’s a wonderful example of (Pyotr Ilyich) Tchaikovsky’s work,” DePue said. “It’s exciting. The second movement is a beautiful, full movement with an oboe solo and a bassoon solo with a real kind of a haunting memory, which is sort of foreshadowing of Tchaikovsky’s struggles in life. You can hear (it) in the music. The third movement is an alto staccato movement. It’s a lot of fun for the strings. It’s quite charming. It launches into a fourth movement that is gangbusters.” Ohlsson will perform a sinfonia concertante of Polish composer Karol Szymanowski. “Garrick is one of the world’s great pianists,” DePue said. “He is amazing in every meaning of the word as a pianist, and as a musician and

Brew Bracket set for June 11 By Mark Ambrogi • mark@youarecurrent.com Ryan Coyle figures everyone enjoys a little tournament-style competition. So, why not bring that competition to the drinks craft beer world? Coyle and Mike Sale, both Carmel residents, started Brew Bracket in 2010. “The craft beer industry (is) booming and has been for the past five or six years,” Coyle said. “It’s almost tripled in size since we started. No one else in the county holds events like this where it is a blind, side-byside comparison where patrons can find their new beers. We bring eight brewers head-tohead in tournament-style competition. It’s all the same category.” Brew Bracket will host an event featuring experimental wheat brews from 2 to 5 p.m. June 11 at Tomlinson Tap Room at the Indianapolis City Market. Tickets are $35. A portion of the proceeds from Brew Bracket events are always donated to an Indianapolisarea charity. This event will benefit 100 Voices of Hope, a cancer research facility through IU Simon Cancer Center. Coyle said they have donated more than $10,000 to area charities. “The brewers absolutely love our events because it gives them the chance to try new

Carmel’s Flix Brewhouse head brewer Chris Knott was previously an assistant and head brewer for the Ram Restaurant & Brewery in downtown Indianapolis, which has won three of the Brew Bracket contests. Coyle said it would be interesting to see if Knott can continue his winning ways at Flix. Coyle and Sale starting selling a Brew Bracket hosting kit, which costs $35, in 2015. “People can do this at home or at the office,” Coyle said. “We’ve sold them pretty much all over the globe.” The kits can be purchased at brewbracket. com, along with tickets for the June 11 event.

First timers are a little shocked, uncertain of what to expect and a bit overwhelmed. Delightfully so! The products are fresh. The finishes are smooth, and the building is a testament to well-thought design. Home to 15 showrooms and 20 design firms, the Indiana Design Center is a relevant destination for anyone considering a home remodel or new construction project. The building is open to the public, and the staff will be happy to direct your journey. Our experience was formalized Feb. 15, when we moved into an IDC studio space. Suite 219 is industrial, edgy, inviting and thriving. Our strategic move has exceeded our expectations, and I am thrilled to witness giddy first-timers and seasoned returnees explore the building’s offerings. Collaborations A few recent projects prompted us to bring in Ferguson Bath, Kitchen & Lighting Gallery for interior lighting, faucets and bathroom vanities. A patio update saw us working with Caryn at Drapery Street for porch blinds, Brian at Godby Hearth & Home for a fire feature consult and Tay with The Premier Group for audio. Genius designer Adam Gibson has included our firm in a kitchen remodel. And of

Cost vs. value in your remodel Commentary by David Decker One of the most common topics our clients ask us about when it comes to remodeling is the budrenovations get. People want to know what they can expect to spend on a remodel and where that money is going. Understanding how much a project will cost will help determine the scope of the project and if financing is needed. When planning your remodel, it is important to consider how long you intend to stay in your home. If you think you’ll be selling within the next five years, you’ll want to look at any improvements you make as an investment. With each project and home being different, it is nearly impossible to give a set figure on what a renovation should cost. That said, we can provide some guidelines to help determine an appropriate remodeling budget and understand where the costs lie. For a complete kitchen remodel, we recommend budgeting 10 to 20 percent of your home’s value. For a complete master bathroom remodel, we recommend budgeting 7 to 12 percent of your home’s value. Again, these

percentages can vary a bit with each project, but this guide can help you plan and understand the costs related to your remodel. At The Affordable Companies, we work to make luxury affordable. That means we work with clients who have large budgets, as well as those who have more modest budgets. Each project is individual and unique, and we work closely with our clients to create a space that fits both their budget and their lifestyle. Are you interested in updating your kitchen and your bathroom? Do you have questions about budgeting and whether or not now is the right time to remodel? Schedule a consultation with us! We’ll talk about your home and your budget, and come up with a plan that fits your needs. Updating your kitchen or bath is an investment, but it’s one that pays dividends for years to come. For more, visit currentincarmel.com.

For a complete, master-bathroom remodel, The Affordable Companies recommends budgeting 7 to 12 percent of your home’s value. (Submitted photo)

Divorce – What to Expect: The Benefit of Reaching an Agreement on Custody There are two aspects to child custody. The first is legal. Legal custody refers to the ability to have input on medical, educational, and religious issues pertaining to a child’s upbringing. Joint legal custody is appropriate when the parties are able to communicate about these issues and have reasonable discussions and disagreements that can be worked out. Generally, as long as the parents are able to communicate and cooperate with one another on decisions involving the child(ren) without a high level of conflict, joint legal custody is an excellent first step in custody agreements, both acknowledging the roles of each parent and investing both in the decisions presumed to have the highest level of impact of the children. The fact that the parties will not always agree, besides being an obvious component of divorce to being with, is not a reason to discard the possibility of agreeing to joint legal custody. The mere fact that the parties do not see eye-to-eye all the time will not necessarily guarantee that a Court would not order joint legal custody if the best interests of the children are served by that status. With an agreement, you have the ability to lay the framework out for successful co-parenting, beginning with this step. If the parties are at odds over even minor decisions and are at such a level of conflict that joint legal custody would be impractical at best and harmful to the children at worst, then either by agreement or order of the Court one parent would be vested with the final say in making any of these “major decisions.” The second aspect of custody is physical custody, which is much more often the subject of dispute. Simply stated, physical custody refers to the home location of the children. One party or the other having physical custody does not presume any level of parenting time for the other parent. In fact, designating one parent as the primary physical custodian does not preclude the other parent from having parenting time with the children up to fifty percent of the time.. Along those lines, parents may create a unique schedule which satisfies the needs of their children and each other. Often, however, developing a parenting time schedule can be very challenging. When parties are unable to agree, the Indiana Parenting Time Guidelines provide a parenting time schedule that gradually increases as the children age, provides for a division of holidays, and time with the children should one parent live a significant distance from the children’s primary residence. It should be noted, though, that the Guidelines represent a minimum amount of reasonable parenting time

to be afforded to the non-custodial parent. Many Indiana Courts commonly award an involved, non-custodial parent parenting time in excess of the schedule provided in the Guidelines. People often feel the need to “have their day in court,” believing that if the judge hears “their side of the story” the custody order will be in their favor. However, in evaluating whether to ask a judge to make a ruling on custody and parenting time, the parties would be well advised to keep in mind that time in court is limited, and it is difficult to present all of the information believed to be important. A judge will receive limited information in a limited time frame, so choosing whether to have the outcome determined in this matter instead of an agreement requires serious consideration. This is not to say that such conflicts which arise should never be litigated. However, once you proceed to court, the final decision is out of your hands and the Court is free to accept your position, the position of the other parent, or a position unrelated to either based upon the evidence heard and the Court’s believe about what is in the best interests of the children. If parties are unable to reach an agreement, Indiana Courts will focus on the “best interest of the children” and in doing so will consider a number of factors in determining an appropriate custodial and parenting time arrangement. These factors include, but are not limited to, which parent has served as the primary caregiver; the child’s age and sex; the wishes of the child and the parties; the child’s relationship with each parent, siblings, and others; the child’s adjustment to their home, school, and community; and the mental and physical health of all involved. There are a number of benefits to reaching an out-of-court agreement, including but not limited to, allowance for non-traditional work schedules and flexibility for holidays. When parties are able to communicate and cooperate on these matters, it is a win-win for all involved.

Ruins of Castle of Dürnstein, Austria (Photo by Don Knebel)

Dürnstein and King Richard Commentary by Don Knebel Dürnstein is a charming village along the Danube River in northeast Austria, 50 miles upstream from Vienna. Its main travel claim to fame is an ancient castle that once held as prisoner English King Richard I, better known as “Richard the Lionheart.” In 1188 A.D., King Richard joined Philip II, the King of France; Leopold V, the Duke of Austria; and other Christian rulers in the Third Crusade, seeking to take back the Holy Land from the Muslims. The Crusaders were successful in capturing significant territory, but were unable to retake Jerusalem, their primary objective. On his way back to England in 1192, Richard was captured by representatives of Leopold, who had been offended when Richard tore down the Austrian flag after a successful battle. Leopold held King Richard captive in a castle on the hill overlooking Dürnstein. He was eventually freed when England paid Leopold a ransom of about 100,000 pounds of silver, twice England’s annual income at the

time. The money helped finance the construction of Wiener Neustadt (“New Vienna”) Today, Dürnstein, with fewer than 1,000 residents, is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Austria’s picturesque Wachau Valley, famous for the quality of its wines and apricots. A sign on a street leading into town encourages people to climb the hill to the ruins of Dürnstein’s castle, where they can get a great view of the valley and learn the story behind the imprisonment of Richard the Lionheart. The sign notes that Leopold, called “the Virtuous,” was not able to spend the ransom money very long because, soon after being excommunicated by the Pope for kidnapping a fellow Crusader, he “fell from a horse and died unexpectedly.” In fact, Leopold died from gangrene after ordering one of his servants to hack off his broken foot with an axe. Don Knebel is a local resident who works for Barnes & Thornburg LLP. For the full column, visit donknebel.com. You may contact him at news@currentzionsville. com.
