BUILDING FAMILIES

ADOPTIONS OF INDIANA FOSTERS LIFELONG CONNECTIONS

Writer & Photographer / Abbie Willans

Adoptions of Indiana is a licensed child-placement agency focused on supporting everyone in the adoption process: birth families, adoptive families and adoptees. Co-founder and Executive Director Meg Sterchi helped create the organization in 1995 and has since gathered a dedicated, knowledgeable team of social workers and

other professionals to help children find loving homes and families.

“Our goal is to develop a long-term relationship with families, so that they know they have our support throughout the years, both birth families and adoptive families,” says Sterchi.

Adoptions of Indiana provides child-placement services for prospective families looking to adopt and assists expectant mothers with finding options, including making an adoption plan. The organization also offers therapy and counseling for all parties involved, from grief counseling to adoption education.

Jennifer Morrissey is a social worker supervisor at Adoptions of Indiana who gives adoptive parents information about how to talk to their child — about their birth parent, about adoption in general and what kinds of questions children will have at different stages of development. She also explains how to talk about race if a family is adopting a child of a different race, as well as substance exposure and how that could impact the child.

“I provide post-adoption education for our families after they’ve had a placement. We try to help them do that with different age groups and run groups for kids. I’m a licensed clinical social worker, so I provide counseling for adoptees,” says adoption specialist Allison Montgomery. “I also run a ‘while we wait’ group. It’s a support group, because nobody understands what it’s like better than another family waiting to adopt a child.”

Not only is there a waitlist to adopt a child, there’s a waitlist to begin working with Adoptions of Indiana. Most families are matched in under two years, but it depends on many different factors. The organization offers services like home visits, even if families aren’t working with them for placement. The agency is very selective about who it brings into the program.

“We’re looking for families for children, not babies for families. The families we bring into our program understand that. It’s usually the prospective parent who is looking for a certain type of

family,” Sterchi says. “The families that we bring in genuinely desire openness. Not every family will be prepared for that.”

Once potential adoptive families have passed the home-study stage and been approved as candidates by the agency, the choice is up to the expectant mother and what she wants for her child. She is presented with several family profiles and given the opportunity to meet them in person to see if it’s a good fit. There is never a fee for the birth family for any service that Adoptions of Indiana offers them, which is made possible exclusively through donations.

“We’re very pro-woman. We believe that women should have all of the options that are available for them. We want to support women in any way that we can,” Sterchi says.

“When a woman is pregnant and considering adoption, I provide options counseling to her. We look at support and resources that she may or may not have. We talk about kinship care or guardianship as short-term options. We form multiple plans at the same time so that she can think about what’s best for herself and her family. I’m with her every step of the way. I provide grief and loss counseling after placement. Placement isn’t just one moment — it’s a lifetime,” says Madison Smith, pregnancy and birth parent counselor.

“Single-parent adoptions are not as common, but we’ve had them. We work with same-sex families. We want to have a broad, diverse group of people because not every woman is looking for the same thing. We’re always looking for families of color,” says Sterchi.

“With more diversity, the mother isn’t pigeonholed into looking at the same sort of family 10 times; she’s got a broad variety of options and can think about what family she envisions her child growing up in,” Smith continues.

“They’re not looking for the most wealthy people or the biggest vacations; they’re really looking deeply at their values and beliefs. If faith is something that’s important to them, that’s what they’ll be looking for in a family. Sometimes they’re looking to make sure that a person’s faith isn’t dogmatic and that they’re going to love the child even if they’re gay or a little different,” adds Sterchi.

The adoption process requires sensitivity at times. Office manager and home-study administrator Liz Moser encourages potential parents to think about things from the child’s perspective. She recalls when a prospective family said they’d raise a child of any race, and another caseworker challenged the parents about the lack of diversity in their own lives.

“We know you would love them, but think of the child. Is this what’s best for the child if there’s no one in your life who isn’t white? How will the child feel about that when they’re 8 or 9 years old?” says Moser.

“It’s about being child-centered. I’m an adoptive parent.

Sometimes it takes us a while to not just think about things through our own little sphere, but how that child will be impacted,” Sterchi says.

“My former husband and I adopted, and there was no education in the process. I knew that I didn’t know enough about adoption at the time, so I had to research for myself. We started thinking about how we might make this better, initially for adoptive families. Then I really started to understand that birth families didn’t have anyone in this process and were often the forgotten people in the adoption circle, and that needed to change,” Sterchi recalls.

The staff at Adoptions of Indiana is working to fight stereotypes and misconceptions about birth parents. People often assume the women are young teenagers acting without thought, but in many cases, the birth mothers they work with are in their late 20s or 30s, with real-life experience and who may have other children already.

“It takes a level of maturity and self-sacrifice to put a child’s needs before your own desires,” says Sterchi.

“We talk about shared loss theory. Each person within the adoption circle comes from a place of loss. The birth family loses the opportunity to see that child grow up firsthand, the adoptive family has usually had loss before they get to adoption with infertility, and the adoptee grows up separated from his or her family. It’s important for birth parents to recognize that loss so they can be sensitive to it, to the birth family as well as to the adoptee,” she continues. “There’s incredible grief for these families at times. Parents have to be both educated and supported in order to stand with that child in their grief, not try to fix it for them. That takes a lot of work.”

Sterchi describes the agency’s views on openness and how birth families can be almost like a “strange, 21st-century extended family” if they so choose. Adoptive families provide letters and photos to the birth mothers, and the adoptee can ask questions and have a relationship with them. She stresses that it isn’t shared

parenting and boundaries are clear, but they want to foster those connections.

“Everyone’s going to get tired of hearing about a child at some point, but the birth mom never will,” she says.

“Some of the birth moms that I’ve worked with over the years are in their 50s now, and we still get together. Those relationships are really important. I’m grateful that we’ve

created a very safe space for people,” says Sterchi.

MAKING WAVES

INDY AQUATIC MASTERS ADULT SWIM LESSONS ARE SAVING LIVES & BUILDING CONFIDENCE

Writer & Photographer / Abbie Willans

When most people imagine swimming classes, they probably think of small children wearing goggles and water wings. However, many students at Indy Aquatic Masters are parents and grandparents. Their swimming lessons for adults have gained momentum, and they will be expanding to new locations in the coming months.

“The CDC reports that 37% of the adult population in the U.S. can’t swim 25 yards. Generally, what happens is that if they don’t swim, then their children don’t swim, and it causes a lot of problems. There are 10 drownings every day. It’s the highest rate of preventable deaths in the United States,” says Mel Goldstein, founder and business development director of Indy

Aquatic Masters.

“Indy Aquatic Masters is an adult aquatic fitness program, for adults who’ve chosen aquatics as a means of exercise for a healthier lifestyle. It’s generally made up of four components: fitness swimmers, competitive swimmers, triathletes and open-water swimmers. Adjunct to this master’s program, we try to teach adults how to swim,” he explains.

“We started Indy Aquatic Masters in 2011 and started the adult learn-to-swim program at the same time,” he adds. “We always wanted to expand. We’re not trying to get them into triathlons, we’re trying to save their lives. This may be a jumping-off point

so that they can enjoy swimming more, or they could join other programs, but that’s entirely up to them.”

This adult learn-to-swim program is supported by the USA Swimming Foundation, United States Masters Swimming, the American Red Cross, the Indianapolis Fire Department, and recently, the Indiana Pacers Foundation.

“The reason we’re supported by them is that we teach the five competencies that they want people to know: you learn to jump in water over your head, tread water, turn around, swim 25 yards and climb out of the pool. In essence, we’re saving a life,” Goldstein says.

The classes are two days a week for four weeks. Each lesson is 45 minutes long. The classes are currently held in three locations: Carmel Swim Academy, Lawrence Central High School and the Jewish Community Center.

“The classes are relatively small, where we only have one instructor to maybe two students, but we prefer for it to be one-onone. By the middle of April, we should have three additional locations. That way instead of 250 students, we can help 500, or even more,” he says.

“A lot of resources go into teaching kids to swim, and rightfully so, but we’re missing a lot of people in that 37% who don’t know

how to swim or are afraid of water,” he adds.

Executive Director Michelle Harter says she’s been moved by some of the stories that have come out of the program, from grandparents who are finally able to join their grandkids in the pool, to students who’ve taken the course to surprise their family on vacation.

Goldstein remembers a former student of his who overcame his fear of water after taking lessons.

“I had a student several years ago who had served in Vietnam and almost drowned there. He said he turned the car around twice before he got there because he didn’t want to face that fear,” he recalls.

The staff at Indy Aquatic Masters understands that students come from many different backgrounds and have different personal histories when it comes to water. All of their students are age 18 or older, but many are around 40 or 50 years old or above.

“You stop and think about where we are in 2026; think about an African American grandmother, she’s now 65 or 70 years old, and wants to play with her grandkids in the water. Where was she going to swim in 1960 or 1970? Not only was she not worried about where to learn to swim back

then, but where could she swim at all? So this is changing that. We do everything we can to adapt to teach them how to swim,” Goldstein says.

He has many years of experience with swimming and coaching. He was named Coach of the Year in 2001, and he was inducted into the International Swimming Masters Hall of Fame in 2012. Goldstein is passionate about teaching Hoosiers to swim and saving lives, and other coaches and staff members share that feeling.

“All of our instructors are certified by United States Masters Swimming, which is also partnered with the American Red Cross. Indy Aquatic Masters has been recognized three times by the national organization as the outstanding club of the year. We have several representatives who’ve been nationally recognized for their contributions to the aquatic world,” he says. With small class sizes, the instructors are able to tailor their lessons to the students according to their ability and how comfortable they are around water.

“We have some people who are very afraid of water, and their first lesson might just be standing in it and moving water back and forth, learning how to blow bubbles, learning how to do all the mechanics that go into swimming. We teach them that the body floats, that it’s very hard for people to

drown unless something is holding them down,” Goldstein says.

“We do everything we can to make it comfortable for that individual. Maybe the first lesson is just sitting on the side of the pool with their feet in the water. The second lesson, we say we’re going to try something new and we’re going to put your face in the water,” he continues.

Because of those small class sizes, however, there are only so many students who can participate in the program at a time, and that’s why they’ve been aiming to expand. Goldstein says he has a current wait list of about 80 people, and he wants to be able to help them as soon as possible.

There are between 10 and 20 instructors involved in the program at any given time, and he says many of them are in the master’s program.

“They’re giving back to the community with their time, as volunteers,” he says. “The value that we get from the program helps our core organization, because people start talking about it. I’m really proud of the fact that we’re sponsored by the Pacers Foundation. To the best of my knowledge, it’s the only professional sports team that has sponsored a swimming organization.”

Indy Aquatic Masters tries to keep the price of the adult learn-to-swim classes low so that more people are able to afford it and access life-saving training. Four-week sessions, with a total of eight lessons, are $120, with limited scholarships available.

“Learning to swim is not just life-changing for the students, but for the people who care about them,” Harter says.

PRANA PLAY

LOCAL BUSINESS OWNER PROVIDES SAFE PLACE “ TO PLAY FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY

Prana Play contains multitudes: a play place, a safe haven, a therapist’s office and a space to build community. Inspired by her daughter’s journey with autism, owner Kay Anderson wanted to build a place that would support children both with and without special needs.

Anderson never expected to have a business like this. When she was planning on having a third child, she was diagnosed with

“I think when you’re faced with something that’s really life-changing like that, it changes who you are as a human. Instead of having a kiddo, we embarked on surgeries, chemo and radiation. In the middle of everything else, my youngest daughter, Victoria, got diagnosed at two years old with autism. It really changed my perspective on everything. I was shocked by the stigma and the lack of understanding,” she says.

“I got things from friends like ‘she’s aggressive’ and ‘she’s mean.’ The reality was that, at two, she didn’t have words yet, and that was really hard because she didn’t have her language to say ‘when you pull on my arm, it’s painful,’ or ‘when my legs dangle, I

get sensations that are uncomfortable.’ So what do you do? You push back, because it’s your only form of communication,” Anderson explains.

At first, they thought she had a sensory processing disorder, but soon learned it was autism.

“So we can’t go as a family to spaces that most families can go to. We can’t go to restaurants because they’re too loud or bright. Her sister is only a year older than her, and I always felt guilty, like if I did one thing for one child, the other child was suffering. I wanted to create a space where it was for the entire family,” she says.

Anderson found that many places worked well for neurotypical children or neurodiverse children, but rarely

advanced breast cancer.

both at once.

“One of the biggest stigmas is that people believe special-needs families have all special-needs kids, so pretty much everything caters to special needs. The reality is that most families have one specialneeds kid, and the rest are neurotypical. I wanted something that spoke to the hearts of the whole family,” she says.

She wanted to have a place where parents could relax but still easily keep an eye on their children. It was also important to her to have things to entertain children of all backgrounds, neurodivergent or not.

“The vision was to create a sensory-friendly space where kids could play and parents can also access therapy. On one side of the business there’s play, and on the front side

of the business there are therapy rooms. An occupational therapist or speech therapist can meet their clients here, use the equipment, and if there’s a sibling, instead of being stuck on a tablet, they get to actually play,” Anderson adds.

The play zone includes a jungle gym, a ‘tree nest,’ sensory stations and areas for children to explore their imaginations, like the miniature ‘ice cream shop’ and ‘vet clinic.’ If a child gets overwhelmed, there is a small ‘calm-down’ room that’s dark and quiet, with a camera inside so that caretakers can still see them. There are plenty of comfortable chairs for parents and guardians to rest while knowing their children are safe and having fun.

Prana Play offers monthly memberships, as well as play passes for the day. The space can be rented out for birthday parties and other special occasions. They host classes such as sensory studios, flow arts, movement classes and silk classes, and Anderson is hoping to have even more events available soon.

“We have partnered with an Olympic diving and gymnastics consultant, who specializes in brain and body and movement, and helping kids connect with their bodies,” she says.

Prana Play is a few months behind the schedule Anderson first imagined. The tornado in April 2024 took out an entire wall of the building and required a long time to rebuild. The setback “almost sunk” her. However, they opened in September and have been growing the business ever since.

“I started a nonprofit called Waves of Change Foundation for Neurodiversity. My goal for that is to spark systemic change, starting in Indianapolis: providing support for parents that isn’t just complaining, but productive discussions. Our highlevel priority is around the whole family, especially sibling support. Oftentimes when you have a special-needs kid, they require more time and support. We want to create support for them in a meaningful way, so that they’re not feeling like they’re the caretaker,” she says.

The foundation’s other goal is to encourage other local businesses to be more inclusive.

“It doesn’t take money to have lights that don’t hum, or more soundproofing. The light bulbs here don’t buzz, but they’re the same price as the other ones that do. How do we help other communities and businesses do better at embracing those kids? These sound panels aren’t expensive. It requires an understanding and strategic thought,” she says. “To a neurotypical, we don’t hear the buzzing lights, but to my daughter, it’s unbearable.”

While Victoria is autistic, Anderson found out that she herself and her other daughter, Olivia, both have ADHD. They learned that neurodiversity often runs in families.

“It’s not bad, it’s not good, it’s just different. I’m glad that Victoria knows that she’s autistic. Exposure and talking about it matters so much. In our social skills classes, we bond all types of kids. The world is not very accepting and friendly right now. Unlike other things, such as anxiety, it tends to present pretty consistently. Every person experiences the world differently. If you know one autistic person, you only know one experience. That makes it more difficult for others to understand,” Anderson says.

As for the future, she hopes to continue developing the second floor of the business into a place where older neurodiverse people can find community.

“I fear when my kid becomes a teenager. I want, as the business grows, to provide a safe space for neurodiverse teenagers and adults. Maybe that’s a special-interest class, or a Pokemon tournament, or a gaming night. I want it not to be just about little kids, but to be a space that can grow with the whole family,” she says.

Prana Play is open seven days a week. It’s located at 1019 3rd Ave. SW in Carmel. To learn more about memberships, classes and other events at Prana Play, visit pranaplaycarmel.com or call 317653-0444. For more information about the Waves of Change Foundation, visit wavesofchangefoundation.org.

Vascular Health

GlycoCheck™ Testing / ReVasca™ Healing

Often overlooked in traditional cardiology is the endothelial glycocalyx a gel-like lining inside your blood vessels that keeps them flexible, protected, and free from inflammation This structure functions as one of the body’s largest organs, spanning approximately 60,000 miles of blood vessels and covering nearly 7,800 square feet of microvascular surface area

The glycocalyx plays a critical role in regulating blood flow, circulation, oxygen delivery, nutrient exchange, and inflammatory response When this protective layer becomes damaged, blood flow is impaired, inflammation increases, aging accelerates, and the risk of signif icant health issues rises Protecting and restoring the endothelial glycocalyx is essential for long-ter m cardiovascular health, vitality, and healthy aging.

Bridging the Gap

Compounded Peptides & Medical Grade Supplements

We utiliz e compounded peptides and physician-grade supplements as part of a precision-medicine approach to support metabolism, healing, repair, and longevity. By targeting health at the cellular level, we optimiz e function, enhance wellness, and promote regeneration unlocking the full potential of cellular optimization for long-ter m vitality.

Customized Medical Weight Loss

At TruHealth, we don’t do fad diets or one-siz e-f its-all programs. Your journey is personaliz ed, and so is our approach. Our customiz ed medical weight loss plan is rooted in science, guided by your unique biology, and designed to help you achieve and maintain results.

Hor mone Optimization for Women & Men

As we age, natural declines in estrogen, progesterone, and testosterone can affect nearly every system in the body. These hor monal changes may impact metabolism, sleep, focus, mood, and physical perfor mance, while also increasing the risk of chronic disease.

Our process begins with a comprehensive evaluation of your symptoms, advanced lab results, medical history, and personal goals. From there, we create a personaliz ed treatment plan designed to restore hor mones to optimal physiologic levels closely mimicking the body’s natural rhythms.

We emphasiz e the lowest effective dosing to promote balance, support long-ter m safety, and enhance overall vitality and well-being.

THE WOODARD FAMILY

FOUR GENERATIONS OF PHILANTHROPIC COMMITMENT & COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT

Ask any financial planner to define “legacy” and it is difficult to do. It’s very personal. It means different things to different people. For most, it’s purely a financial transaction, or it could be a vintage watch or an engagement ring passed down through generations, a CD, stocks or family heirlooms.

PASSING DOWN PURPOSE — NOW IS THE TIME

For the Woodard family, legacy is clearly defined! It’s passing down purpose! It’s passing to their children a deep commitment to serving their community and giving back in a meaningful and impactful way. Beyond financial assets or real estate, Turner and Diann Woodard wanted to pass on a strong commitment to their son Turner John (“TJ”) and their daughters, Taylor and Whitney, what was bestowed upon them by Turner’s mother Edna Woodard Van Riper.

The Woodard family, led by Edna’s passion and commitment to Indiana Landmarks and their historic preservation efforts around the state, is just one example of their philanthropic commitment and community engagement legacy plan for their children and grandchildren. When families intentionally guide children to apply resources toward philanthropy and community engagement, those resources

become a tool for impact, responsibility, and legacy.

“Those who can, must,” Turner says. “If you have the resources and wherewithal to better the community you live in, you must step up to make a difference. The time is NOW.”

Turner and Diann, both longtime Indiana Landmarks members, assisted with the grand opening of the Indiana Landmarks Center, helping to celebrate Landmarks’ adaptive reuse of a historic church in downtown Indianapolis as their statewide headquarters and raising money for their work around the state. A recent donation by The Woodard Van Riper Family Foundation boosted Indiana Landmarks’ ability to quickly intervene on behalf of threatened historic places.

“Preserving Indiana’s special and historically significant buildings and monuments is a must and it’s one way that our family can add value and respect in local communities,” Turner says.

COMMUNITY IMPACT

The Woodard family is best known for saving the famed 500,000-square foot former Stutz Automobile Factory in downtown Indianapolis from the wrecking ball in 1992 and pioneered its reuse as a small business incubator — a new concept at the time — attracting artists, furniture makers,

technology companies and many, many other businesses as tenants. For several of the initial years, the clean out and clean up of the Stutz Factory was a family affair.

“TJ and the girls used to bring their skates and bikes and while we were doing what demolition we could, the kids were having a ball in the wide open spaces,” Diann recalls.

For over 25 years they, along with the Stutz Artist Association, supported and helped host The Stutz Annual Artist Open House, a community-wide social fundraiser for the association which enabled both professional and upcoming artists to thrive and the community to connect with local artists in their working studios.

HITTING THE ROAD FOR CHARITIES

Another hallmark event orchestrated by the Woodard Van Riper Family Foundation is their Charity Road Rally which brings together two-person teams from smaller local charities to compete in a day-long drive across central Indiana hunting for various signs and landmarks along their journey. It’s a very unique event, as it not only builds camaraderie among the charity staffers, but it also connects 12 local charities in the same room to share stories of success and challenges.

“I know for many it’s a different sort of day. That is one of our goals. We hope everything we are doing will help in some meaningful way,” Turner says. “Our foundation mission is to support the aspirations of grassroots community driven organizations, rooted in our shared values of inclusivity, collaboration, and service to others! Our commitment is to champion positive change, by actively helping fund and telling the stories of these vital community organizations!”

As new and pressing needs arise in the local community, the Woodard Van Riper Family Foundation will continue to be a rallying cry for local charities to help them get their message out and reach their missions.

In the early 90’s, downtown Indianapolis was a bit slower on evenings and weekends. “Our family was honored that we could provide an affordable venue for different and unique businesses to thrive so that our tenants could earn a living and then make their own impact within the city.” Turner says. “It worked and we’re proud to have been a part of that bottom-up community building effort.”

In fact, the “adaptive re-use” model of the old Stutz Factory and even their reimagining of the Canterbury Hotel, sold in 2013 proved sustainable, and, assured that the landmark’s futures were secure. They sold

a majority stake in the Stutz to developer SomeraRoad in 2021 for the company to continue to invest in the Stutz Factory for use as artist studios, galleries, offices, restaurants and a cultural center that is vibrant and thriving today.

Beyond investing and preserving some of Indiana’s most unique buildings and real estate, the Woodard family has been long-time supporters of the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department’s Mounted Horse Patrol. From their early days of owning the Stutz Factory and the Canterbury Hotel, the mounted officers and horses would trot by and were offered carrots while on patrol. It was this 30 year passion of supporting the IMPD Mounted Patrol that led the Woodard family to be the lead donor and a core fundraiser to help ensure that the new barn, stables, riding arena and offices were built!

After a grand opening in September 2025, The new Woodard Van Riper IMPD Mounted Patrol Headquarters in Indianapolis, is now the state-of-the-art home for Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department’s seven horses and officers, made possible by a public-private partnership and the generosity of Indianapolis-area residents who wanted to make sure the city’s mounted patrol continues to serve the public well into the future.

The Woodard’s are still fully invested in the Indianapolis area with their ownership of racing legend Sarah Fisher’s Speedway Indoor Karting building and well as Village at Valley, an urban renewal mixeduse project on the industrial end of Mass Avenue.

Villages at Valley is in a developmental phase and will be a great additional to the vibrant Mass Avenue scene as it comes to fruition,” TJ says.

LEGACY OVER TIME

As the family moved away from the daily operations of the city-block sized Stutz Factory, their focus for real estate shifted north to reuse opportunities in Carmel. At the same time, TJ, his wife Megan, and their three boys (all under 5 years of age) bought a family home in Carmel. With TJ playing a leading role in the revitalization projects and site selection for the family’s new businesses, in 2021, the Woodard’s purchased Carmel’s ‘70s-era’ former Rich Furniture building on Rangeline Road to renovate it as a boutique and unique office and retail space, expanding the approach they applied at the Stutz Factory. It is now known as the Turner Jeffrey Building. At the same time, they acquired both the Horton Fan Factory on Carmel Drive, renaming it, “The Weldon” and the former Keltner Business Plaza and renamed it, “The Rivington”.

The Weldon has been repurposed into a vibrant youth sports complex which houses pickle ball courts, gymnastics, dance and fitness businesses, another example of “adaptive reuse” applied to a factory building in Carmel. The Rivington is a office/warehouse combination building providing much needed space for small businesses in Carmel to flourish. The Turner Jeffrey Building also houses the Woodard’s business operations, an art gallery, and a showroom to display the family’s automobile collection.

THE “NOW” ACTION PLAN

As part of their mission driven legacy plan, in 2026 TJ purchased Wasatch Lake, the 400 acre retreat property one

hour southwest of Indianapolis in Poland, Indiana. Wrapped around a 60-acre lake, Wasatch Lake is open year-round and offers 7 lakefront cabins, Longhouse Lodge, an expansive 9,000 square-foot gathering space for groups and receptions, plus 12 miles of hiking trails that wind around the lake and through the forest. The property purchase by TJ and his family is not merely about ownership, but about values, purpose, and stewardship passed down through generations.

“It was important for me to step up with passion, love and commitment to the traditions of our many long time guests! Along with my three boys, my wife and our great team at the lake, there are many reasons why this property needed to stay in the family,” TJ says.

He’s already made a big impact with the development of a high tech website to enable guests to make reservations on-line (wasatchlake.com) and major upgrades to cabins and the lodge. Although it’s a for-profit business, TJ relishes in providing a venue for some of life’s most special occasions.

“We host weddings, family reunions and other special events on the property and we constantly receive feedback and thank you letters on how special Wasatch Lake is to so many families,” TJ adds.

He is continuing his family’s legacy of commitment to the arts and community organizations leading efforts to support the Carmel International Arts Festival, Actors Theatre of Indiana, Indy Jazzfest, Humane Society of Indianapolis and the Children’s Museum. In addition, TJ is on the board of the Heartland Film Festival and the Alumni Board of Park Tudor School.

As TJ, Megan and their three boys celebrate their family’s special moments at Wasatch Lake, it reminds him of spending time with both his grandmother and parents reflecting on how important is it to take care of others around you. TJ’s boys are the 4th generation that will carry on The Woodard Van Riper family traditions of supporting community and giving back.

STONE SOLUTIONS

JJC COUNTERTOPS FOCUSES ON QUALITY & RELATIONSHIPS

With summer just around the corner, homeowners in central Indiana may be looking for ways to spruce up their home.

JJC Countertops offers a great way to refresh any space with a wide variety of natural stone to choose from. Whether it’s building an outdoor kitchen for grilling on the weekends or a basement bar remodel, they are here to help.

JJC Countertops creates custom countertops, islands, vanities and fireplaces. They use materials such as granite, quartzite, marble, porcelain and quartz to make beautiful, unique pieces.

“We’ve been in business since 2022. This idea took shape and became a reality when we were in our current job at the time. We were looking for more opportunities. We learned about the process and how to treat customers and how to handle their expectations. We worked part time at our other jobs while we worked on getting this business up and running,” says co-owner Carlos Caldera.

Caldera is in charge of sales, Jonathan Valbuena is the operations manager, and Jose Romero helps in both areas of the business. They also have another business

partner, Clemente Romero.

“Jonathan is the one who has more experience. He has 10 years in the industry. Jose has six years, and I have around four years. All of us come from Venezuela. We are basically family. Jonathan was the one who introduced Jose to the industry. Everyone was learning something different: from how to manufacture, how to get an idea for the company in the commercial area, and connecting with people and expanding our network,” Caldera continues.

After moving to the United States, the three

Writer & Photographer / Abbie Willans

business owners settled in Westfield, but they like working in Carmel because of its location on the map.

“Carmel is a central area that helps us connect with all the areas around here: Zionsville, Meridian, Fishers and others. It lets us be everywhere in 20-30 minutes. The people in Carmel appreciate how we do business with them. We’ve done several jobs around us and they’re very friendly. Since we’re a small business, we try to make connections with people,” Caldera says.

JJC Countertops handles commercial

jobs as well as the typical residential ones. They’ve done work installing new counters at Tilly’s Tea Room in Fishers and created brand-new tables to match the existing stonework at the Goat Tavern in Carmel.

“We let them know that we’re not just a company you’re going to do business with; we want to be their friends and create that relationship. They’ll call and say, ‘Hey, Carlos, we’re looking to do something in our kitchen or basement bar, and you did a great job the first time.’ When they call you for the second time, you know you did well. They talk about us to others and say, ‘they’re

really friendly, easygoing, and do work that you can trust,’” he says.

While they do all of the fabrication and installation themselves, the team at JJC Countertops admits that social media is not their specialty.

Romero jokes that some of their girlfriends told them to “hand over the password and the login, and don’t touch it again.” Their Instagram showcases many of their recent projects and gives potential new customers ideas for possibilities in their own homes.

From start to finish, most jobs take seven to 10 days. Countertop installation usually takes between four and six hours.

“We go to the place, take the measurements. Once the customer agrees on the material they want to use, we can get started. We work with all the suppliers here in Indy: Stone Mart, MSI, Stone Design and some others,” Caldera explains.

“We like to take our customers to different suppliers so they can see all the materials. If you look at the small samples, you’re only going to see a portion of the stone. If we take them to the supplier, they can see the whole slab. Maybe the pattern or the veining is not going to be how you imagined it. We try to share all the details with them and send them digital preview renderings so they can see what it would look like in their kitchen. We can flip it so that the exact veining they like is precisely where they want it. Those small details are something that we can only do with our custom-made countertops,” he says.

The most common jobs they do are kitchen countertops and islands, outdoor kitchens, basement bars and bathroom vanities. With summer coming, many of their customers are looking for a way to refresh the look of their space.

“Quartz is really popular because it looks like natural stone, but you’re not going to be dealing with stains, chips and scratches. It’s affordable, long-lasting and low maintenance,” Caldera adds.

The staff at JJC Countertops uses their many years of experience to help customers figure out what material is best for them. Natural stone looks elegant but requires a lot of upkeep and can be hard to maintain in a house with a busy family. Spilled liquids can leave stains, and if sealant isn’t reapplied diligently, the surface can start to get scratched from everyday wear and tear. Families with children may prefer quartz for this reason.

On the other hand, they advise those installing outdoor kitchens that quartz will quickly fade or yellow in prolonged sunlight, and dark-colored natural stone is a better fit for this type of space.

“All of the materials come in different categories. People think quartz is always cheaper, but you can get it in a category 1 through 8. It depends on quality, veining

Some material comes with the NSF certification label, and those are the only kinds that are approved to use in public spaces, like airports, libraries, restaurants and hospitals.

JJC Countertops is growing, and the owners plan to expand the business even further in the future, ideally partnering with other professionals and branching out with what they can offer their customers.

“We want to have a whole team, like for plumbing, cabinets and whatever else you’d need. We want it to be where you can come to us from the bottom, and we handle it all the way up to the top for the whole house,” Caldera says.

In the meantime, they’re building connections with current customers and Carmel residents. They hosted a raffle with a full kitchen remodel giveaway prize last year. They work on the weekends and accept lastminute or rush jobs in case of emergencies.

“No job is too big or too small,” he says. “Our business isn’t to sell the material, because you can get the material anywhere. We offer them solutions, the best quality that we can deliver. For us, it’s really important, and we try to please everybody.”

Letter from the Mayor

My role as Mayor continues to inspire me every day. Leading such a special community is both a great privilege and a profound responsibility.

The City of Carmel provides a highly sought-after quality of life for people of all ages and backgrounds. Whether you are a long-time resident or a first-time visitor, I welcome you to take full advantage of everything our city offers as we head into this beautiful spring season.

We take immense pride in many aspects of our community, and our safety is chief among them. It’s no surprise that safety consistently stands out as an attribute our residents value most about Carmel.

And that’s just the beginning! Our excellent schools, miles of multi-use paths and trails and hundreds of acres of parks combined with an array of world-class cultural attractions round out the unique “Carmel Experience.”

Conveniently situated in the heart of Indiana, we enjoy a robust local economy that makes Carmel the ideal place to live, work, raise a family and create lasting memories with friends.

For those looking to get involved, the opportunities are endless. From community-wide events and concerts at our premiere venues to recreational sports leagues through our Parks & Recreation programs, there is something for everyone.

As the weather warms, I encourage you to enjoy Carmel’s outdoor amenities like the bikeable and walkable Monon Greenway, the Monon Waterpark and our many open public gathering spaces like Midtown Plaza and City Center.

Carmel is special because of its people — our engaged residents, visionary business leaders and the dedicated City teams who work every day to maintain a world-class quality of life.

I encourage you to reach out with questions, attend our public meetings, volunteer for a local event or simply get out and experience our walkable community.

We are truly a city Built for Big Dreams, and we are so glad you are part of it.

Mayor Sue Finkam of Carmel, Indiana
