Ann Craig-Cinnamon and her husband, John Cinna-mon, call themselves travel junkies.
They’ve run with the bulls in Spain, spent Oktoberfest in Munich, Germany, Mardi Gras
in New Orleans and New Year’s Eve in Times Square.“There is no education in the world like travel,” Ann
said.So now the couple has set its sights on climbing
Kilimanjaro.“It’s not a technical climb. It’s just a really hard
hike,” Ann said. “The altitude is the issue.”They are doing a fundraising effort to battle cancer
as part of their climb.The couple will leave for the climb on June 12. Ann,
59, an ex-editor for Current in Fishers, and John, 54, were Indianapolis radio personalities for 30 years. They own a CruiseOne travel franchise.
“Last summer we hiked Petra, which is 17 miles, in one day with lots of climbing,” Ann said of an ancient city in Jordan. “It just about killed me. We’re going to hike five or six hours a day.”
On the final day of the climb, they will have to get up at midnight and climb five to seven hours to get to the summit to be there for sunrise.
“You only stay for 15 to 20 minutes because the altitude hits you hard there,” Ann said. “Then you go back down almost all the way down in one day. It’s really long day.”
John said it’s not like anything either of them have done.
“We’ve done warm-weather trips and cold-weather trips, but this trek up Kilimanjaro may be the first time we’ve gone from shorts to winter coats in the space of five days,” John said. “And all on foot. We’ve read that the hike will cover four different climate zones, from equatorial rain forest to glaciers and sub-freezing temperatures at 19,000 feet and everything

in between.”They will each have two porters to carry
their camping gear and clothes. A cook and a guide also will join them. Ann said they made the decision to do this while they are still fit enough to do so.
“We’ve walked every day for 15 years,” she said. “We lift weights and do have a workout regimen we follow but we’ve added to it for this climb. This is getting us in better shape than we were in. Not everyone makes the summit so I’m keeping our fingers crossed we make it.”
Ann said a doctor gave them medications to help combat altitude issues.
“We’re as prepared as we possibly can be,” Ann said. “Of all our travels, this has been the
most intense because of preparation because we had to buy gear we didn’t have the need for before.”
Ten years ago, Ann and John went to Kenya and raised money for clothing and medical sup-plies for an orphanage in Nairobi. Ann and John, who will be celebrating their 20th wedding an-niversary during the trip on June 24, are raising money with the climb for the Community Health Network Foundation. Indy Eleven is another sponsor. They are calling the fundraiser Climb-ing to Kick Cancer. A pledge can be made for every thousand feet they climb, which goes to the oncology patient assistance program.

A neighborhood home can put a lot of stipulations on residents with a green thumb,
yet Chris and Tonya Hays, Fishers, have not let those stipulations stop them from
following their passion. They recently covered the clay soil that
lays on their property with eight inches of compost, retrieved from Noblesville, and put in rows of different types of vegetation from the street to the front of the house.
“We have been gardening for 10 of the 15 years we have been there and this year we decided to convert the entire front yard to garden space for flowers, herbs and veg-etables,” Chris said.
The Hays, along with their kids Kira, 11, and Alex, 8, grow just about everything they can. Tonya’s favorites are the herbs, which she includes in the soups and stews that she makes at home. Chris enjoys growing hops, what beer is made out of, and brews his own beer. The kids both enjoy growing tomatoes the most.
Chris said his favorite part about being a gardener is the food.

“You can’t get tomatoes or herbs or lettuce or anything that has the same intensity of gardening, and we can teach the kids where food really comes from,” Chris said.
The kids assist their parents with all the processes of having a garden, such as laying the compost, weeding and harvesting.
Chris and Tonya also enjoy woodwork-ing, and run a furniture business out of their garage.
“It’s kind of nice to get your hands dirty af-ter sitting in a sterile office all day,” Chris said.

Superheroes, a new business created by Elizabeth Cramer, is now open in Fishers.
The business is a type of life coaching for kids and teenagers, whether they
have disabilities or not. It helps manage stress and anxiety, test or school trou-ble and it promotes positive self-talk.
Cramer was a school councilor for Hamilton South Eastern and noticed a need for proactive teaching.
“We need to help parents in their goal of trying to teach kids to be com-petent and to reduce their stress, to deal with conflict resolutions, have a positive identity, and to be leaders and stay motivated,” Cramer said. “Kids are struggling in a lot of areas.”
The name came from Cramer believing that all superheroes should celebrate their strengths, but they have weaknesses, too.
She said she hopes to develop coping skills for those weak areas.
“Kids are going to have challenges in ev-eryday life and we want to empower them so they are ready to handle those,” Cramer said.
This summer, Cramer is offering 20 different types of camps at Superheroes, all involved with helping kids improve themselves. The list of camps, which includes stress reduction, conflict resolution, empowerment and more, are available through the website, www.we-superheroes.com.
Although the primary focus is the kids and teenagers, Cramer said that Superheroes helps work with the parents as well.
Cramer can be reached at 288-9141. There are still positions available for the camps. Cramer said she hopes to continue the idea of the camps into the fall and winter as well.
“It’s a unique place, I don’t know of any other business like it, definitely not in this area,” Cramer said. “We want the clubs to help kids and teens work on their particular weak areas that they need to address or just strengthen the skills they already have.”

Last month, Flanner and Buchanan Funeral Centers’ new building, Oaklawn Memorial Gar-dens, opened. It is at 9700 Allisonville Rd.
However, Flanner and Buchanan does more than just funerals. its new building, built mostly of natural stone with plenty of windows, is unique enough
to host a variety of events,
including weddings. “There’s nothing else quite
like it in the country,” Bruce Buchanan, owner and CEO, said. “It’s a unique building used for funeral events, and we know people want to have open, positive environments so we have built a building to reflect that.”
Flanner and Buchanan is one of the oldest, continually family-owned and operated busi-nesses in the state. It was founded in 1881 by Buchanan’s great uncle and has stayed in the family ever since.
“I constantly hear from people about how we have served their family and they are so thank-ful for what we have done for them because people are looking for assistance, help and un-

derstanding when there is a loss of a loved one,” Buchanan said.
Buchanan said that Flanner and Buchanan is able to provide families with a very large amount of resources for funerals, weddings, anniversa-ries and more.
“We have experience with all religions and practices, we have worldwide connections if someone dies out of the city and we run our own care center, so when someone dies they never leave our care,” Buchanan said.
They provide special event coordinators and their own catering company if someone wants to host an event other than a funeral.
To inquire about an event or a funeral, call the Oaklawn location at 849-3616.

On June 20 the Nickel Plate Players will perform the world premiere of the juke box
musical, “Girls Night Out,” at the Fishers Amphitheatre at 8 p.m.
The musical focuses on a group of girlfriends who regularly take part in girls’ night out and details how they lean on each other to navigate through the good and bad times in life. Their life experiences dictate their taste in music.
“The thing that I thought was really impor-tant that I’ve come to find out through talk-ing with my wife is that the bond between women is so clearly different than the one with men. She would say you know it’s just something that is so vital. That relationship is so vital,” said Ashton Wolf, artistic director and co-founder of NPP.
Juke Box musicals are a little different than traditional musicals. Instead of original scores written by composers the songs used are contemporary pop songs. GNO features music from Carole King, Taylor Swift and Madonna along with songs from popular musicals such as Grease and Chicago.
Keeping the event local was important to

Wolf. All of the actors are from Fishers. “The whole idea was to create a theatrical
avenue for people here in Fishers. So, not only people who act regularly but those who used to do it and want to do it again. I like the idea of the people watching the show and thinking this is accessible,” Wolf said.
While the show focuses on women and their relationships, everyone will enjoy the show.
The event is free to attend. Guests are en-couraged to bring lawn chairs, blankets, food and beverages.

Commentary by Mike Colaw
My grandfather was a Harley-riding, South Dakota born, good ol’ boy. He didn’t become a
believer in Jesus until later in life. His conversion to Chris-tianity always intrigued me.
Why would this guy with a decent life full of excitement choose to follow the Bible with rules that would, at first glance, appear to keep him from his pleasures?
He worked as an electrical engineer. Often his work would take him on the road and inevitably landed him in a small town in South Dakota where there was nothing to do in the evenings after work. One evening, out of ac-tivity options, he decided to read a Bible in his hotel room. Before hotels were all equipped with televisions it was much easier to have time to truly reflect. As he flipped through the pages, reading story after story about Jesus and his disciples, he discovered something – there was a mission and purpose so much bigger than anything he had experienced be-fore. In the pages of that ancient text he tast-ed commitment, deep friendship, faithfulness and hope at a whole new level. He had been captured by heaven’s delight and it satisfied an emptiness that nothing else ever had.
Interesting – he discovered he had a long-ing for something that couldn’t be satisfied by anything on earth.
When we are hungry, there is food to sat-isfy that need. If we desire to procreate, there is the potential for that, too. Feeling lonely? Friendship. Tired? Rest.
Metaphysical longings? Where did they come from? How did they evolve? Every tribe, every nation … why are these longings in us?
My grandpa is not alone. So many including myself find Christ out of wonder. But, don’t take my word for it.
Oxford professor C.S. Lewis: A man’s physical hunger does not prove
that man will get any bread; he may die of starvation on a raft in the Atlantic. But surely a man’s hunger does prove that he comes of a race which repairs its body by eating and inhabits a world where eatable substances exist. In the same way, though I do not be-lieve (I wish I did) that my desire for Paradise proves that I shall enjoy it, I think it a pretty good indication that such a thing exists and that some men will.
Do I have all the answers in life? No. Do I have a hunger that can’t be filled by anything on this planet? Yes.
Commentary by Larry Lannan
The Indiana General Assembly did the Fish-ers community a big favor with actions tied to
school funding, but another cri-sis looms for Fishers and other local communities throughout
the state. Indiana’s method of funding street and road work is in serious need of change.
State lawmakers declared the 2015 session as one aimed at education funding. The actual amount of new money was substantial, but not dramatic. What did change was the formula to pass out the funds available, providing more to school districts with growing enrollments, like Hamilton Southeastern Schools.
State legislative leaders are already saying the 2016 session will be aimed at dealing with the deficit between the need to keep our road network in good shape and the money available to do it. In the past, the gasoline tax has been essentially a user fee system – the more you use the roads, the more you pay to build and maintain the road system.
However, that model is no longer viable
with the fuel efficient vehicles we see on our streets today. That means fewer gallons of fuel are used, and results in lower gasoline tax collections.
Sadly, there are no good and easy answers to this problem. One approach would be to increase the gasoline tax or find some other source of revenue to pay for streets and roads.
Another idea being floated would not tax you on the gasoline you buy, but based on the num-ber of miles you drive. The technological barriers and intrusiveness of such a system are major drawbacks.
In September of last year, then Fishers Town Manager Scott Fadness told town council mem-bers the gap between the need for road and street maintenance and the funds available un-der state law was widening.

Family receives help from parish By James Feichtner • [email protected]
Faith can be a powerful motivator and it certainly is for one McCordsville family in need.
The Beach family has gone through a tremendous struggle over the past few
months, but with the help of their parish and strong faith, things are looking up for the family of six.
The father, Tom Beach, is diagnosed with Pul-monary Fibrosis, a condition where lung tissue becomes damaged and scarred, making it dif-ficult for lungs to function properly. Fortunately, Tom was able to receive a double lung trans-plant and is now currently recovering from the surgery. But aside from his medical difficulties, Tom’s position at Eli Lilly was eliminated in April as part of a series of lay-offs within the com-pany. With Tom being the main source of income, their only son being diagnosed with Autism and medical bills piling up, the family was facing a financial crisis.
“They are a family who had a need,” said Dodi Poynter, family friend and member of the Beach’s parish. “The husband was [very ill] and now he has a lung transplant. They don’t have the income and he can’t apply for unemployment because he can’t go out and apply for a job. And
fUNdraIser
they have four children. They needed help and someone needed to help them.”
Poynter decided to take matters into her own hands to help. She knew she needed to reach out to the community, but needed a way to do it on a large scale, so Poynter looked to gofundme.com.
“They had so many different outlets to reach out to assist, but I needed a vehicle to reach out to those outlets and so in my mind I’m thinking, “How am I going to help this family with their immediate needs and how am I going to do it now?” Poynter said. “They have a mortgage, they have utilities, they have a child with Autism. This

family needs help; a little bake sale is not going to do it. We need something big. With the Go-fundme.com, we can reach anyone at anywhere at any time to be able to be a part of this.”
Within six days of the gofundme.com page being launched, Poynter has raised over $50,000 out of their $150,000 goal. On top of that, mem-bers of their catholic parish have volunteered their time to help the family in other ways.
“Everybody else hopped on board in helping support the family,” Poynter said. “There are different ministries within our parish who have come forward and have offered significant sup-port, such as the Knights of Columbus, who or-ganized the outdoor cleaning. It’s just members of their parish coming to assist this family that is in need.
The Beach family is astounded by the support their friends and members of their parish have supplied.
“They are just overwhelmed by the generos-ity. They know they will continue to trust in God and he will provide. Never would they have ever expected this.”
The family is continuing to receive support, but face a long road ahead while Tom recovers. To learn more about the Beach family or to make a contribution to their donation page, visit http://www.gofundme.com/vjk9e4.

Come September, Alexa Kapsalis will go on the journey of a lifetime.
The Fishers High School and Ball State University gradu-ate will be participating in the World Race mission trip, which will take her to 11 different countries during the
span of 11 months. “I’ve always just really felt called to missions,” Kapsalis
said. “I didn’t know what it looked like futuristically, but I did know it was a part of my future.”
Kapsalis heard about the World Race her junior year of college and took a year to pray about it. She applied, got ac-cepted and decided to graduate from Ball State a semester early to begin raising money for her trip to take place this September.
Kapsalis will spend one month in each Uganda, Rwanda, Ethiopia, India, Nepal, Malaysia, Thailand, Cambodia, Guate-mala, Honduras and Nicaragua. She and her team will stay at churches or nonprofits while they assist the people that live there.
Kapsalis is departing with 50 other people, but once they reach the country they split up into teams of seven.
Kapsalis and her team will be catering to whatever the people of the specific country need. She said that each month could be extremely different.
“I could be teaching English, working on a farm, working in orphanages or trying to help those affected by sex traf-ficking,” she said. “It just depends on the community that we are serving.”
Previous mission trips, one to Guatemala and one to New Jersey, have helped prepare her for the adventure she is about to embark on.
Kapsalis believed that her mission trip to Guatemala helped her understand that the universal language is love.

MeeT alexa KapsalIs:
“I think traveling overseas to Guatemala definitely gave me a better perspective of just a bigger world. I think we often get caught up in this little bubble and going overseas showed me that love is the universal language,” Kapsalis said. “It doesn’t matter what language you speak or what age you are, everyone understands love.”
Kapsalis must be completely funded before she leaves, and currently she is at about 80 percent. Approximately $17,000 must be raised for her to go on the trip.
“I am so grateful for the support and encouragement I’ve received so far. It’s such an incredible thing to witness, the people who want to join me on this journey and give hope to the hopeless, it is such an incredible process to see people partner with me and I cannot thank those people enough,” Kapsalis said.
While she is on her trip, Kapsalis will be able to talk to her family around once a week. It all depends on where she stays and where she can get Wi-Fi.
However, despite the churches and nonprofits helping those on the World Race with a place to stay, Kapsalis said that sometimes the teams may need to sleep outside in the tent they are required to carry with them the entirety of the trip.
Despite the huge event looming in front of her, Kapsalis said that most of her fear is in saying the goodbyes to the people she meets in each country.

We’re sure you’ve heard about the latest fail at the IRS. It was recently reported tax return information for “about 104,000” taxpay-ers was illegally accessed by computer hack-ers overseas. The stolen information was used to submit fraudulent returns and, as a result, “about $50 million” in refunds were is-sued. This, of course, is on top of the recent scandal wherein the IRS was caught target-ing conservative organizations. We taxpayers finally need to say, “Enough, already. Time to shut it down!” Wherever you find our govern-ment, corruption and incompetence are sure to follow. Since we know the Republicans will never have the collective spine to over-haul our tax system, it’s time to look at third-party candidates.

Commentary by Danielle Wilson
I’ve just left my youngest child’s recogni-tion ceremony, though as my husband Doo likes to point out in his Mr. Incredible voice,
“It’s not a graduation. She’s moving from fifth to sixth grade!” Regardless, the Wilson
family is now officially done with elementary school and I couldn’t be happier.
Of course tears threatened a few times. When you see your baby at the podium re-calling her fondest memories of kindergarten in front of a few hundred people, and she speaks with poise and confidence and just the right amount of humor, you can’t help but feel proud and slightly sentimental. I sat amidst parents and teachers whom I’ve gotten to know over the last eleven years, and I realized this might be the last time I see them. And if I’m perfectly honest, I’m not quite ready to replace field days, science fairs, and movie nights with field trips to D.C. and scientific dissections of pigs and, gulp, date nights.
Graduation ceremonies inherently empha-size your child’s growth, and force you to take stock of how far she’s come. I can eas-ily remember Maddie’s first day of school and how my neighbors and I congratulated our-selves with a mimosa cocktail that morning. Today, after I put my dancin’ queen on the bus for her last day, I had a single moment of melancholy and then jumped into the air for an Irish feet clapping. “Job well done!” I thought. So though part of me will miss the innocence of elementary school, I mostly feel relieved that we can finally close this chap-ter of our lives.
Not that I’m particularly anxious for anoth-er teenage girl in the house; her older sister is providing enough hormones, sass and eye rolls for the both of them and I haven’t yet developed a strategy for hiding all of my clothes, shoes, make-up and accessories. And Lord help us when we have four drivers; one has aged me easily 10 years. [Yes, I now look forty!]
But despite what Doo thinks, graduating from elementary school is a big deal, and I for one am celebrating. Peace out.

Graduation a cause for celebration

Commentary by Terry Anker
Our eldest son capped a successful first year of college with a class trip to the seeming birthplace of democracy, Athens, Greece. As a student in Indiana University’s Civic Leaders program, it related sufficiently enough to “actu-al” study to make the expenditure worthwhile. In spite of a lurking suspicion that he’d found a loophole that provided an oh-so-perfect excuse for an island junket, his mother and I were impressed by the reading list and occasional photo from important historical sites. Certainly, there are other pictures of young adults being young adults – let’s call those historic sights – but, we are content that the time and money was well spent.
As luck and an understanding spouse would have it, I found myself enticed to participate in a program at a nearby Aegean pied-a-terre a few days antecedent to our son’s scheduled return to the U.S. The gap after the Memorial Day conference and my retrieving our progeny allowed for a
short tour of the Peloponnesian isthmus. Populated since pre-history, our present understanding comes from Paul’s letters in the New Testament to the locals of Corinth, or perhaps to the Olympics foundations in Olympia, or maybe to the Hollywood film “300” and its spawn which follows the leg-endary tale of the Spartans.
With each vista more impressive than the last and with each ruin more awe-inspiring than another, one wonders what will remain of us in more than 3,000 years. Would city leaders be pleased in how they are memori-alized? Are we destined to be remembered by empty tombs, ancient vandals and frag-ments of broken marble? If not a statue of stone, then can an idea, well-conceived, hope for immortality?

This is part two of my highlights of the newest Hammacher Schlemmer gift catalog. Just in time for Father’s Day, it includes some items that might make dad wish you’d gotten
him a tie.Insect Blunderbuss: This is
a rifle-type weapon that when loaded with salt can be used like a shotgun to pulverize flying insects. It offers a great lesson to pests about the dangers of a high sodium diet.
The Selfie Toaster: Here›s how it works. You upload a photo of yourself to the manu-facturer and they send you a customized heating insert that imbeds your likeness onto the toasted bread. Many women returned the item, claiming they looked old and wrinkled, so now the company is recommending against using English muffins.
Un-kinkable Hose: The maker claims this hose cannot tangle. HS prides itself on being a family magazine, so this product is rated as the least kinky gift in the entire catalog. The most kinky? Probably the plantar fasciitis high heel shoes.
The Dental Hygiene System: This tooth-brush has an accelerometer and a magnetom-
Gifts you shouldn’t giveeter embedded in the handle, which sounds to me like something you shouldn’t put in your mouth after running it under water. Download the app to your cellular device and you can see graphs and charts showing how success-ful your tooth-brushing has been. And you can monitor the kids’ progress, as well. Friends might ask you, “Do you have a photo of your grandson on your phone?” “No, but take a look at his plaque report.”
Rechargeable Personal Air Purifier: The device hangs around your neck and eliminates airborne germs in your personal space. It’s not clear whether it’s your germs or someone else›s they’re worried about. The gadget emits two million negative ions a second, which doesn’t sound like the ideal way to make new friends and meet new people.
That’s the Father’s Day edition of the Ham-macher Schlemmer catalog. Stay tuned for the 2015 Christmas edition, out in just two weeks.

For Colin McCabe, performing isn’t as much about the spotlight as it is about the time spent
with his cast mates – both on
and off the stage.The third-grader at Our
Lady of Grace in Noblesville is making his Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre debut as Dweasle, a Lost Boy in “Pe-ter Pan.”
“I wanted to do ‘Peter Pan’ because it would be a great acting experience for me, and I could make new friends,” McCabe said. “I like performing because I get to make new friends.”
By now, even at 9-years old, he should have plenty of them.
The family musical at Beef & Boards brings the total of productions listed on his resume to 10. Per-forming since he was a 4-year-old, he’s been seen in shows at The Artist Studio, Civic Theatre and Theatre on the Square, to name a few. Of course, each has its challenge.
“The hardest part is remembering all the lines,” McCabe said.
Still, it’s all about the friendships he’ll take with him long after the curtain goes down.
“My favorite thing about ‘Peter Pan’ are my friends,” he said. “I get to hang out with them on breaks.”
While he’s been developing his acting chops most of his life, he also has another potential ca-reer in mind.
“I have wanted to be a scientist since I got my first science kit in preschool,” McCabe said. “But I love to act, too. So I don’t know yet!”
“Peter Pan,” the high-flying Tony Award-winning musical featuring the iconic songs “I’m Flying, “I’ve Gotta Crow,” “Never Never Land” and “I Won’t Grow Up,” is on stage through July 3 in the intimate space of Beef & Boards Dinner Theatre.

Get wild at Indy’s ZoobilationBy Maddie Yerant • [email protected]
June 13 will be a wild night for the Indianapolis Zoo – well, even more wild than the usual wild animals make it.
That’s the Friday of the Indianapolis Zoo Zoobilation, an annual event bringing together humans, animals and central In-
diana businesses for one night of food and fanfare from 5:30 p.m. to midnight.
“It’s grown into a party,” said Zoobilation co-chair Ellen Coen.
According to Ellen, Zoobilation began at the house of India-napolis real estate magnate Herb Simon in the 1980’s. It has since become a sizable fundraiser and event, with live music and more than 70 restaurants and vendors in attendance – all on the grounds of the Indianapolis Zoo.
Each year, Zoobilation celebrates a different exhibit, whether new, returning or enhanced, according to Larry Coen, Zoobilation co-chair. This year, the zoo’s returning koalas are center-stage; the sold-out event even has an Aus-tralian theme.
“We’re expecting a big crowd, shoulder-to-shoulder at-tendance where 5,000 people are packed into relatively small areas, if you think about the pathways that we use at the zoo,” Larry said. “So it’s a really great party atmosphere.”
More than 70 restaurants and bars across central Indiana will join in the fun, donating their food and services to the night, including Matt the Miller’s and Langton’s Irish Pub in Carmel, and Stone Creek in Zionsville, according to Larry.
These businesses will offer their fare not only to guests, but also to a panel of judges, who will select winners in dif-ferent categories.
Last year’s dessert winner, Stone Creek, will be bringing back an old favorite, according to marketing manager Mallory Doyel.
“It is our golden raisin and cranberry bread pudding,” Doyel said. “We’ve been serving it for years now, and it’s kind of a crowd favorite. So every year, people kind of come up to our booth, hoping we’ll have it, and they get excited when we do.”
According to general manager Chris Parker, Matt the Miller’s will be serving shrimp and grits, while Langton’s will be serving cottage pie and seafood chowder.
Parker said the event is great both for the zoo and partici-pating businesses.
“We’re located in Carmel, and doing events outside Carmel and Hamilton County are beneficial just to reach people that might not know we exist, or where we’re located, or have ever heard of us before,” Parker said. “It’s probably the big-gest fundraising event in the city every year, from what I gather.”

Fishers Rotary preps for June 13 Fishers on Tap
dIversION
By Alec Johnson [email protected]
For the third year in a row, the best craft breweries in the state of Indiana will pres-
ent their beer for a sum-mer tasting.
The Fishers On Tap-Summer event, which is a fundraiser pre-sented by the Fishers Rotary Club, will take place Saturday, June 13th from 4 to 8 p.m. at the City of Fishers Amphitheater. Event proceeds are given back to local service agencies and support organizations to help local youth and their families.
Nineteen local craft brewers will be at this event, including Sun King, Tow Yard, Outliers and several others. Harmony Wine will provide wine for the non-beer crowd.
Attendees can also sample appetizers from area restaurants like Peterson’s, Red Sake Japanese Bistro, Ruth’s Chris Steak House and Eddie Merlot’s. Live music by Phoebe and the Mojo Makers will also be provided.
Ticket prices start at $20 for a designated
driver or wine-only drinkers, and then goes up to $40 for general admission. VIP tickets are $60, and people with VIP tickets get to go in for an hour before the main event starts. The VIP event starts at 4 p.m. and runs until 5 p.m., and then people with gen-eral admission tickets can go in at 5 p.m. Those with designated driver tickets will not be served alcohol, but are allowed to enjoy the food and music provided. A photo ID is required and attendees must be 21 or over.
Fishers Rotary Club Membership Chair Bill Jerrow is proud to be a part of hosting this event.
“It’s a great blend of us trying to do the right thing and good things for people that need help in the community, supporting a great growing Indiana business, or market, I guess, or industry, and then getting all of the nice feedback from not only the guests, but the brewers who say ‘It’s a great event, best event we go to each year, can’t wait for next year’; so, we just feel like we’ve hit the right note all around in all three areas,” Jerrow said.

The Indiana Design Center in Carmel re-cently opened an exhibit entitled “Kindred
Spirits,” which hosted the work of NYC-based artist Hunt Slonem and his longtime friend and fellow artist,
Carmelo Blandino.The exhibit, presented by Joan Coats Eckert
and Dianne Wright of Coats-Wright Art Design, features Slonem’s “Bunny Wall”, which he says represents his Zodiac sign and his love of nature and animals. His new painting has also been transplanted on Groundworks, a new Lee Jofa brand of wallcovering and fabric.
When it comes to his style, Slonem says he’s been called everything from a pop art-ist to a neoexpressionist, but likes the term exotica.
“My focus is on cultures, foreign cultures and well … my work is teeming with spiritual-ity that is seen or unseen,” Slonem said.
Blandino’s work is a mix of portraits and landscapes. His paintings, “Operetta I” and “Strawberry,” are featured in the exhibit. All of his 2014 paintings, he says, were inspired by symphonic music.
His artistic style has been described as “lyrical abstractionism,” according to a writer

who interviewed him. His paintings have a contemporary feel to it, he said, and he likes to use thick brush strokes. Also, he doesn’t like to start over if he messes up, but rather he works around it.
“I just keep going and going,” Blandino said,
referring to how he painted “Operetta I,” “and suddenly, poof, it just appears. It’s like life. It’s my metaphor for life. You just keep going. You don’t remove what you’ve done. You can’t.”
The exhibit runs through June 13 in Suite 122.

The World Health Organization finally states, officially, what the rest of the world is already aware of: that the world’s most popular herbicide, RoundUp, probably causes cancer in humans, as well as damage to chromosomes and DNA. The Interna-tional Agency for Research on Cancer reported that there was limited evi-dence of carcinogenicity for humans, specially, for non-Hodgkin lymphoma based on a review of multiple previ-ous studies.

Tune up to avoid health crashes
MeN’s healTh
Commentary by Stephanie Cohen
Men, do you ever check under the hood of your car? It’s how you protect your invest-
ment, extend your vehicle’s life and per-formance and avoid
crashes. But when it comes to checking under your own hood, your health, that is where many come up short.
Beyond the usual risk factors of obesity, smoking, high cholesterol and diabetes – there’s the dreaded hazard no one likes to talk about and happens to be my specialty: cancer.
The top three cancers in men are lung, prostate and colon cancers. Lung cancer has a strong environmental component: smoking. The other two often hinge on genetics. Having multiple relatives with cancer or one relative with multiple cancers are red flags.
Fear often keeps men from uncovering their risks. Many think that if they feel fine, it’s best to not look for trouble. What they may not re-alize is that finding something early may make a big difference in the stage when cancer is identified, and, ultimately, survival. With colon cancer, for instance, you can remove a growth and stop cancer from happening.
Others are concerned about the cost of
health screenings, both money and time, which is why St.Vincent Fishers is hosting the Men’s Health Tune-Up from 7 to 11 a.m. on June 17. There will also be the chance to test drive a Tesla Model S and meet an Indiana Pacers player.
For risks with a strong genetic influence (like cancer), my advice is simple: Have regular health screenings, learn your family history and share it with your physician.
Stephanie Cohen, MS, LCGC, is genetic counselor at St.Vincent. For more information on genetic counseling, health screenings and the St.Vincent Men’s Health Tune-Up visit stvincent.org/fishers.

Following a passion she’s had since middle school, Sloane Swayze, Fishers, has taken her
hobby to the next level. With her love of jewelry and creat-ing it, she opened her own
business, Sloane Jewelry Designs in November of 2013.
Recently, she dedicated herself and her time fully to the business, leaving behind other part-time jobs that have helped her come this far.
Swayze sold the jewelry she made in middle school and high school, and once she realized her passion was actually a talent, she attended Ball State University and majored in fine arts with a specialization in jewelry.
Swayze said her favorite part about making jewelry is that she gets to wear her art.
“It’s easy when you’re putting together an outfit and you have something to top it off and change your whole look,” Swayze, 24, said. “It’s different when you wear your art, which is why I prefer jewelry over painting or drawing.”
Swayze said her jewelry is primarily silver, and has a very modern, geometric based de-sign. Her prices range from $22 to $175.

In business for only five months, one Indianapolis-based firm is making big waves
in the national archi-tecture scene. DELV Design recently won
the 2015 Architecture Business Plan Competi-tion, put on by Charrette Venture Group. The firm’s partners are Cara Weber and Chris Lake of Zionsville and Amanda and Jeremy Welu of Fishers.
The team presented its business plan to a panel of judges on May 13 in Atlanta preceding the American Institute of Architects’ national convention. The firm took home a prize of $10,000 that they plan to use to accelerate the execution of their business plan.
“It felt really good to win the competition, and it was a lot of fun to push ourselves hard-er than we would have to craft a really good business plan at this early stage,” Weber said. “The benefits of doing it would have been real-ized whether we won or not just from having focused on our business plan at this stage in the company.”
“The reason you should buy handmade jewelry is because you’re supporting someone local way more than going to shop at a retail store,” Swayze said. “You get a totally differ-ent personalized experience than if you just shop from a big store.”
Swayze said she connects with her cus-tomers on more of a personal level, and they often come back more than once.
To learn more about Swayze’s business or to purchase her items, visit sloanejewel-rydesign.com.
“The judges were shocked by how new we are,” Amanda Welu said. “They were really impressed with the way the plan was put together. The format and look of it made it feel like we have been around a lot longer than we have.”
DELV Design strategically focuses on deliv-ering technology solutions that many small firms struggle to implement. This innovative technology foundation strengthens the firm’s capabilities in architecture, interior design and branding services.

Commentary by Jordan Fischer
Question: “Dear Jordan, I look forward to your column in The South-
side Times every week. I especially en-
joy your sense of humor and the fact that you don’t take grammar too se-riously. Please do address the dif-ference between the homonyms ‘lead’ and ‘led.’ They are used incor-rectly more and more often, as you did in your May 7 - 13 column. You are so rarely, if ever, inaccurate, I forgive you!” – (Petra Ritchie)
Answer: You know, I put those mistakes in my columns just so clever readers like you will catch them and give me more fodder to write about.
(No, not really. Great catch, Petra!)The mistake at hand here is mixing
up the proper past tense of the verb “lead” – meaning to guide, especially by going in advance – with the ele-ment lead (which, incidentally, has the best Latin name: plumbum).
“Lead” is an irregular verb, so its
past tense isn’t “leaded,” but “led.” The trick isn’t in remembering that it’s irregular, though, but how it’s irregular, because it conjugates dif-ferently than “read,” which is spelled the same in the past tense, but pro-nounced differently.
Unfortunately, Word’s little squig-gly lines aren’t much help here, be-cause “leaded” is a word in its own right meaning “covered, weighted with or containing lead.” Why they didn’t go with “plumbumed,” I’ll never know.
So there’s no trick on this one – you’ve just got to remember that “lead” becomes “led” in the past tense. Even your friendly neighbor-hood Grammar Guy needs a refresher on it from time to time, though, so you can rest easy knowing we’re all in this together.
‘Lead’ and ‘led’

Commentary by Don Knebel
Cape Point, a UNESCO World Heritage site situated 30 miles south of Cape Town, South
Africa, offers an extraordinary view of the famous Cape of Good Hope, which is neither the
southernmost point of Africa nor the point where oceans meet. It is, however, the home of a macabre legend.
In 1487, Portuguese explorer Bartholomew Diaz and his crew sailed south from Lisbon along the western coast of Africa, hoping to find a sea route to India. Diaz managed to sail east after reaching the southern coast of Africa, but his frightened sailors refused to continue. On the return trip, Diaz encountered a rocky headland jutting into the ocean that he named “The Cape of Storms” because of violent weather in the area. His patron, King John II, renamed the point the “Cape of Good Hope” because it proved sailing to India was feasible.
The king’s optimism was justified. In 1498, Vasco de Gama “rounded the Cape of Good Hope” and continued until he reached India. The notion of “rounding the Cape” has long suggested that the Cape of Good Hope is at
the southern tip of Africa. It is not. To the east, little-known Cape Agulhas extends fur-ther south. Cape Agulhas is also where the warm currents of the Indian Ocean bump up against the cooler currents of the South At-lantic, creating turbulent weather. Cape Point tourists, having never heard of Cape Agulhas, buy T-shirts incorrectly saying they have seen “where two oceans meet.”
To reach the hilltop offering the best view of the Cape of Good Hope, visitors to Cape Point ride “The Flying Dutchman,” a funicular named for a legendary Dutch ship report-edly lost off the Cape of Good Hope during a storm. According to a 17th century tale, the ship and its ghostly crew are destined to sail the oceans forever, foretelling doom to anyone catching sight of the glowing ship. After see-ing the Cape of Good Hope, the adventure-some can look for 250 species of birds and several troops of baboons. They can also try to avoid spotting the Flying Dutchman.

Commentary by Larry Greene
PROJECT OvERvIEW: This home, located in the Sandstone subdivision in Fishers, was built in 1997. “The deck on our house did not
provide a true out-door living experience. We wanted to add a screened porch that gave the feeling of
being outside without the nuisance of intense sun and pesky bugs.”
DESIGN CHALLENGES: “We started with the intent of placing the new porch off the back of the house and we wanted it big enough to fit all six grandchildren.” Due to building setback regulations and roofline complications, the new porch would not fit off the back of the house. The south side of the house was found to be the best option.
INTERIOR FINISH: Once the foundation and structural framing was complete, pres-sure treated deck boards were installed. To create improved access in-and-out of the house, the existing window left of the fire-place was converted to fit a new exterior glass door. EZE-Breeze windows were chosen due to their ability to open three of the four lightweight, vinyl-glazed panels to create an

outdoors feel. The bead board ceiling and ce-dar trim throughout the interior of the porch was painted to match the existing house trim color.
EXTERIOR FINISH: Skirting was added to conceal the exposed bottom portion of the deck. Hardie exterior panels and cedar trim was installed throughout the perimeter of the porch to tie in with the existing house. Shingles and aluminum gutters matching the profile and size of the existing were installed. The exterior was then painted to complete the

final look. ARCHITECTURAL DETAILS: To create a unique
and custom look, a bump-out with a bay win-dow was incorporated into the design of the porch. Sconce lighting and a ceiling fan on a dimmable switch were installed to add function and elegance to the new 350 SF porch.
