The RepoRTeRMonday, the City of Fishers, Nobles-

ville and Hamilton County Commission-ers held a joint meeting to vote on the future of the Nickel Plate Corridor. An agreement was reached that allows for excursion trains along 8.5 miles of rail-road beginning just north of downtown Noblesville up to Atlanta. The Nickel Plate Trail proposed would run 9.2 miles from 96th Street in Fishers to Pleasant Street in Noblesville. Statement from Mayor Scott Fadness

on Nickel Plate TrailI appreciate the hard work of every-

one involved in making the Nickel Plate Trail a reality, including the strong leader-ship from Mayor Ditslear and the County Commissioners. The proposal approved today allows for the preservation of the train going north from Noblesville while providing a year round recreational trail amenity for our residents.

The Nickel Plate Railroad played an important role in our history as a city and I believe the Nickel Plate Trail will hon-or that history while creating an amen-ity that so many of our residents have requested. This will be transformational for the heart of our city and my team and I will work to involve as many com-munity members in the planning of the trail design as possible. I look forward to honoring our past while celebrating the future of our vibrant city with the Nickel Plate Trail.

Statement from Noblesville Mayor John Ditslear on Nickel Plate Trail

The joint decision made this morn-ing by Hamilton County, the City of Fishers and City of Noblesville will pro-vide the best of both worlds to our resi-dents. By selecting Nickel Plate Heritage Railroad as the new operator, we are saving the Nickel Plate Railroad so that it never needs saving again. This option keeps the trains rolling from Downtown Noblesville, through Forest Park and north along the historic railroad. The oth-er decision to pursue railbanking for the southern railroad leg starts the federal process to convert the line to a multiuse trail and preserves the right-of-way for any future mass transit opportunity.

Statement from Hamilton County Board of Commissioners President

Christine AltmanHamilton County has been a part-

ner with Noblesville and Fishers in the ownership of the Nickel Plate Rail line for many years. The County invested in the Nickel Plate based upon the tran-sit opportunities afforded by this unique multi-county right of way.

We have worked for years to estab-lish independent funding to renovate this corridor for light rail use. Unfortunately, the recently passed regional transit fund-ing legislation specifically excludes the use of dedicated funding for rail purpos-es.

The disruption of operations on the line due to track conditions has prompt-ed our partners to consider alternate uses of the Nickel Plate. Fishers and Nobles-

ville have shared with the County their desire to utilize the portion of the Nickel Plate in their communities as a regional trail until such time that density, conges-tion and adequate funding are present to make the Nickel Plate a viable transit corridor. As with any partnership, con-sideration should be given to the inter-ests of all partners.

The highest priority for Hamilton County is the preservation of this corri-dor, intact, for future use for transit and transportation purposes. Given the un-certainties of the future use of the Nick-el Plate, the County supports entering into the federal process of Rail Banking, which preserves all of the line for future transit use and allows for flexibility in

the current use of the line for rail or trail use. The County voted to allow the Rail Banking of the line today at a special joint public meeting of the partners, and did not vote on the operator selection. “

As of Monday evening, No statement was received from the City of Noblesville or from the Hamilton County Commis-sioners

Nickel Plate line. “My grandchildren and I will miss the Fair Train,” Jackson Township Trustee Christina (Chris) Miller told The Reporter. “However, as the Jackson Township Trustee, I am excited that the train will continue to run in Northern Hamilton County. The Town of Atlanta would be an excellent choice for a hub and Train Museum, as discussed in the meeting this morning. All of the Towns, Arcadia, Atlanta and Cicero will have opportunities for tourism.”

Atlanta. The Nickel Plate Trail will run 9.2 miles from Pleasant Street in Noblesville to 96th Street in Fishers.

By BRenna Donnelly FISHERS, Ind. (WISH) — A por-

tion of the Nickel Plate Rail will soon become a Monon-style pedestrian trail in addition to a historical train running north out of Noblesville.

Fishers and Noblesville city leaders made it official Monday morning, choos-ing the Nickel Plate Heritage Railroad as the rail line’s operator. The plan as-sociated with that bid includes the cities building a multipurpose trail south of downtown Noblesville and the rail line maintaining a historical train from the Historic Noblesville Square and going north. The decision requires rail banking the southern portion of the rail line.

Fishers Mayor Scott Fadness, a longtime supporter of the Nickel Plate Trail, “I think this is a really a win-win scenario, where we can get the trail and progress forward and connect our com-munities in a meaningful way and allow for the train and the history that Nobles-ville is so proud of.”

The train versus trail debates have

continued for more than a year since the Hoosier Heritage Port Authority halted service along the Nickel Plate line af-ter an inspection in March 2016. Train support groups claim the inspection was cosmetic and meant for a different class of train, but the cities’ leaders point to $3.7 million price for updating the rail per the inspection findings. Noblesville and Fishers leaders announced a poten-tial trail project in February and held two public meetings for comments. Mon-day’s meeting marked their decision and action selecting an operator to execute a part trail-part train plan.

Fadness said the train would run from the north side of Noblesville north to Arcadia with the potential to go to Tip-ton. He said the trail portion would start on the south side of Noblesville and go south, potentially reaching downtown Indianapolis. Other than two city-gener-ated renderings, an image of the trail and all the crossings is still unclear, but the Fishers mayor is optimistic.

“The Monon wasn’t built in one day

or one month or even one year, so we’re going to do this for a period of years to get this thing built,” Fadness said. “But the idea would be a world-class pedestri-an experience on the Nickel Plate Trail.”

He said events like the dinner train and Polar Express would still be opera-tional but this new plan effectively ends the Indiana State Fair Train.

“The proposal that we approved this morning would have a lot of the histor-ical train experience, just from Nobles-ville going north,” Fadness said.

The land the railroad tracks run along is owned by the cities of Nobles-ville, Fishers and Hamilton County, meaning they are the governing bodies deciding who operates on it and where those groups go, as long as they maintain clearance from the Hoosier Heritage Port Authority. As they’ve made decisions, the leaders have fallen under criticism for not listening to the public’s opinion.

“They’ve mentioned many times they’re listening, and we have no evi-dence of that,” said Logan Day, a member

of the Save the Nickel Plate Train group. “All quantifiable data shows there’s that more people in support of preserving the rail than there are the trail.”

Day was at Monday morning’s meet-ing and wants to see passenger rail from Tipton County to downtown Indianapo-lis. The fact that Monday’s decision to keep the northern part of the train intact is a success for him.

“I believe the idea to preserve it north is specifically to try and appease the public,” Day said. “We’ve made a difference. That’s a positive and we plan to continue to do so moving forward.”

Fadness said the next step is to ap-ply for rail banking through the federal Surface Transportation Board. The Fish-ers mayor said it’ll take about a year for clearance and then they can start con-struction, with a ballpark figure at $9.3 million.

Nickel Plate Trail to run south of Noblesville, train to run north

The REPORTERA concerned citizen recently filed

a request for information for “copies of public records (electronic or print) that relate to the City of Noblesville and its interactions regarding the Indi-ana Transportation Museum as well as the Nickel Plate Trail proposal” under the Indiana Access to Public Records Act. This information was then given to The Reporter. Some emails point to both Noblesville Deputy Mayor Steve Cooke attempting to fill a public forum with front-row supporters of his own view and a pattern of disrespect toward citizens who do not agree with his per-spectives on city projects.

The Reporter contacted Deputy Mayor Cooke, Mayor John Ditslear and the Noblesville Common Council to ask for their views on some specific emails which were provided as part of the pub-lic records request.

The following are specific email excerpts, The Reporter’s questions and Cooke’s replies.

Email: “We are getting beat up pret-ty badly, although I’m hoping that our public meeting on 3/23 can start to turn more people to our side.”

Reporter: I thought this was a lis-tening session? Wasn’t it an opportunity for government, both county and city, to listen and not an opportunity to “turn” people to “our” side. Did the city listen? If so what did they hear?

Cooke: I used a poor choice of words in this e-mail from March 8 with another trail supporter, and for that, I’m sorry. As with any project, it’s important for all the facts to be presented, and our efforts to “turn more people to our side” were to present the facts that we had collected about the ben-efits of a trail as well as the facts about the Nickel Plate Railroad. I’m proud of the fact that Mayor Ditslear made the decision to change the format of our March 23 pub-lic meeting to include comments from citizens. For me personally it was surprising to see the level of passion for the Nickel Plate Railroad displayed at the meeting, so it was a good learning experience. And listening to the public strengthened our resolve to keep the Nickel Plate Railroad as part of the city’s vision for the northern sec-tion of the corridor running from our downtown – which we have not wavered from. But I apologize that my poor choice of words written in March did not reflect the lead-ership of this office.

Email: “Because this trail is far from a done deal.” . . . “We need to show our City Council how much of No-blesville supports the idea of the trail so that they are not just hearing from the vocal minority who want to preserve the train. Seriously! If Council only sees the opponents, Noblesville will miss out on our only chance to get this Monon Trail like amenity in our own city. I've seen this play out already in Noblesville where good ideas die be-cause only the old timers against everything speak up.”

Reporter: Isn’t it just the opposite, the vocal minori-ty being the trail supporters? “Old Timers against every-thing . . .”

Cooke: This content was written as an e-mail only to myself as a draft of a potential communication to mem-bers of my HCLA team that I revised. A full search of all my e-mails has verified this fact. I did, however, write

an e-mail with different content that I sent to two HCLA team members who are trail supporters.

Noblesville Deputy Mayor’s emails reveal pattern of disrespect for opposing views . . .

Stacking the deck, Mr. Cooke?

Noblesville Common Council respondsNoblesville Common Council President

Megan Wiles: "I don't appreciate the tone of Steve's messages, whether they are internal or meant to be shared with our residents. Anytime we are embracing a project that impacts our community we need to gather the input of our community and gauge their level of interest."

Noblesville Common Council Vice President Chris Jensen: “I am always supportive of a professional, respectful debate about the future of my hometown. However, in regards to the recent emails that have surfaced, I am disappointed in their tone and would have, personally, handled the situation differently.”

Cooke off the RailDeputy Mayor assigned to other projects

Statement from Noblesville Mayor John Ditslear:

Deputy Mayor Steve Cooke and I have decided to turn his attention to other city projects and let the discussion about the Nickel Plate Trail continue under the leadership of other city officials. I believe Steve did not mean to come across in the light that he is being portrayed and will use this experience as a learning opportunity going forward.

The topic of the railway has passionate

members of our community on each side. However, some of the social media comments I have seen directed at him have been unfair, defamatory and harassing. We are a team and Steve works diligently on my vision for the City of Noblesville and what we think is best for its future.

As I have previously stated, we want to keep the train rolling in Noblesville from Forest Park north to Tipton. I am hopeful this move allows the railway conversation to progress forward without being personal.Ditslear

Deputy Mayor Steve Cooke’s emails

Cooke

Noblesville Common Council Member Mary Sue Rowland: “Good government and honest government are one of the same and citizens should expect nothing less.”

Typically, people who are against proj-ects are the most vocal. However, my in-tent was for those in favor of the trail to also have a voice.

Email: “See the attached - this is just a rough draft, written late. The section on ITM would need a serious look. I’ve never actually been to the ITM And I’d want to be somewhat careful. But on the other hand, I’ve heard it’s an eyesore. It’s funny reading comments from people who love it.”

Reporter: Forest Park is one of No-blesville’s most treasured assets. The ITM occupies a good portion of real es-tate in the park and the Deputy Mayor has never been there? I don’t understand how a project (Trail/Rail) spearheaded by the Deputy Mayor could be present-ed without firsthand knowledge of a key component. ITM isn’t hard to miss by just taking a drive through the park. If you have never been to ITM how could you find any humor in comments from people who love it?

Cooke: This email to another city employee is regarding a potential com-munication with a reference to the ITM that the city never used. I have driven by the ITM during my visits to Forest Park, and I’ve been briefed on the museum’s conditions. However, the city’s plan for the trail allows for the Nickel Plate Rail-road to remain within the park because it is proposed outside the project scope. Like many citizens, I look forward to seeing improvements to this area when the trains begin running again.

Email: “This citizen still doesn’t get it – but at least Jill Doyle from HCLA tried. And I’ve offered to meet with her as well.”

Reporter: Can you be specific about who the citizen is, and what it is that she doesn’t “get.”

Cooke: I won’t share the citizen’s name, but I can tell you the context be-hind the e-mail. A woman who was angry about the trail proposal posted Facebook messages tagging other community lead-ers that portrayed HCLA as the group behind the trail proposal. HCLA Execu-tive Director Jill Doyle met with her to explain the difference and about the role of my HCLA team’s project work – a study of rail and trail – as compared to my role with the city working to achieve the Mayor’s vision for this corridor.

Email: “As for Anita - I’d rather not waste time on her. She’s probably a typi-cal anti-City person.”

Reporter: Who is Anita? Please de-fine “anti-City person.”

Cooke: This e-mail with another em-ployee within the city was not part of any communication regarding the Nickel Plate, but was in response to a complaint that the mayor was not personally spon-soring a Noblesville Preservation Alli-ance event, which led to a criticism of our city government.

Email: Attached is the updated Proj-ect Tracker spreadsheet. You’ll see that I’ve broken this into two worksheets: one for the priority projects and one for oth-er. Let me know if you prefer it this way or on one sheet. This way, though, I can still track “other” project information that we may not want “out there” if you

know what I mean. I could even create those as a separate spreadsheet alto-gether. I’m not quite sure how you plan to disseminate this with Council. It could be as simple as me printing out and put-ting hard copies in their mailbox. Just let me know.

Reporter: Please comment on your statement “information we may not want out there if you know what I mean.”

Cooke: Every city project goes through the appropriate public process for consideration and possible approv-al. While poorly worded, the point of this e-mail was to create a document to update our Common Council on various projects, with the distinction being made here to “other projects” that are tentative and not yet fully developed for public communication.

Email: Basically – We needed to re-vise where we say the Nickel Plate ends in Noblesville. The estimate before was up to SR32. But since we’re turning the Nickel Plate onto the Midland Trace Trail at Pleasant Street – that’s what we need to say where the NP ends. You’ll see what I mean when you review my edits. However, we’re not revising the budget estimate yet to account for this change. But geographically speaking, it’s less confusing to say it stops at Pleasant (for

now hopefully!). We’ll certainly be excited to pull

up the tracks from 8th Street and over SR32/38 – but no need to confuse the public with this specificity.

In the FAQ, I also added paragraphs about Rail Tourism and Mass Transit. Feel free to revise accordingly or take out that question altogether. We could certainly put in talking points that could sway people away from both – but I think it’s best to remain somewhat neutral to give some cover to our partners.

Reporter: You make the comment about adding talking points that could sway people away from Mass Transit and Rail Tourism. Why would you want to “sway” people? You also state “to give some cover to our partners.” Please ex-plain “cover” and identify “partners.” Shouldn’t city government present facts about a project without consideration of swaying people in one direction or an-other?

Cooke: I’m sorry that my language in this e-mail comes across as cavalier, but facts are what we’ve been presenting to the public as part of the education pro-cess on the benefits of trails as compared to rail tourism and mass transit given the city’s vision for this corridor and its ob-jectives of the Noblesville comprehen-

sive master plan. Regarding the mention of “remain somewhat neutral to give cover to our partners,” I was referring to not directly criticizing ITM during our trail announcement. Despite the trou-bled history of the ITM, which has been the city’s partner for three decades, we didn’t feel it was a good idea to criticize the organization in our announcement – hence, why we removed that section from the trail FAQ.

Reporter: Please comment on your statement “We’ll certainly be excited to pull up the tracks from 8th Street and over SR32/38 – but no need to confuse the public with this specificity.” Isn’t being specific the best way to eliminate confusion?

Cooke: The changes I proposed for the February 28 news release were to simplify the description of where the tracks would be pulled up compared to where the trail would end at Pleasant Street, which was reflected in our final news release. The initial drafts made it sound like the trail would run all the way north to SR32/38, which is not the case.

The REPORTERNoblesville Deputy Mayor Steve

Cooke sent the following statement to The Reporter about emails sur-rounding the Nickel Plate Rail/Trail project:

As the debate on the Nickel Plate Railroad continues, several of my e-mails that are in the public domain have been called into question. I can see where reading some of them without any context could create concerns about the city’s plans for the Nickel Plate Railroad. These e-mails reflected early research and idea gen-eration about the Nickel Plate, and do not necessarily reflect the city’s cur-rent proposal for the railway.

While our actions speak loud-er than words, my communication needs to better reflect the leadership of this office. I’m sorry if the tone of my e-mails offended anyone in our community. The last thing that I want is to tarnish the reputation of this city that I am so passionately serving.

By FRED SWIFTHamilton County motorists who drive

146th Street and wish to head south on Keystone toward Indianapolis should be happy to hear that a new section of road-way to access southbound Keystone from 146th will be well underway by this time next year.

The elevated link, sometimes called a 'flyover' will be less than a half-mile long, but will make a critical link essentially extending Lowe's Way to the south over northbound Keystone and then curve into the southbound lanes of Keystone where drivers encounter no stoplights until reaching 96th Street.

(Currently it is more difficult to get onto the popular parkway, with motor-ists having to use 151st Street in order to get on U.S. 31 which has an exit for Keystone.)

County Highway Director Brad Davis prefers to call the project a Lowe's Way extension. Bids will be taken in Febru-ary, and likely be awarded in March. He reports that about $4 million in federal funds will help pay the estimated $12 million cost of the Lowe's Way connec-tion.

A second, future phase of the project will take the improvement to the north end of existing Range Line Road to allow direct access from 146th to Range Line, the main route into downtown Carmel. There is also good news for the highway department from Purdue University esti-mates of revenue coming to the county from the state increase in gas tax and oth-er fees adopted by state legislation this year.

Davis said estimates show about $3 million next year for the county. Actu-al disbursements will reportedly start in August of this year, and would appear to amount to something over $1 million yet this year. This money is for the county unit only, and does not include disburse-ments to the eight cities and towns in Hamilton County. The formula used for these additional payments is the same that is used for disbursement of currently allocated gas tax revenues.

Doyle to step down as HCLA leaderThe REPORTER

Jill Doyle, Executive Director for the Hamilton County Leadership Academy (HCLA), has announced she is stepping down at the end of August. Doyle has served HCLA for the past seven years.

In a statement posted on the HCLA website, Doyle said, “The Hamilton Coun-ty Leadership Academy has a strong board of directors in place and a dedicated group of volunteers and stakeholders ready to continue to move this organization for-ward. I have no doubt that HCLA is in a great position for the future!”

Doyle thanked the people who had

helped support and mentor her in her role as executive director.

“I firmly believe in this community leadership program and know that I will continue to see many of you leading and contributing to all of the organizations that make Hamilton County a great place to live, work and play,” Doyle said. “I will always be an advocate of HCLA and hope that you will also continue to support the

mission of educating and inspiring leaders to create change in our community.”

HCLA Board President Jody L. De-don responded to Doyle announcement by thanking Doyle for her service and dedi-cation.

“Jill has made Hamilton County a bet-ter place through her service to HCLA,” Dedon said. “Through Jill’s unyielding leadership, HCLA is poised for future growth. A board transition committee is already working toward identifying candi-dates.”

A new executive director is expected to be named this fall.

retirement community, recently presented a check to three wonderful organizations.

The community held two fundraisers and raised $7,500 to be evenly distribut-ed between the American Heart Associ-ation, American Cancer Society and the Alzheimer’s Association. The fundraisers

included a 24-hour memorial walk where residents and associates signed up to walk for as many 15-minute intervals as they wanted during the 24-hour period. This is the third year the community has hosted the event.

The second fundraiser was “Casual for a Cause.” Residents and employees paid $20 for a button that allows them to wear

casual clothes on the last Friday of the month for a year.

Representatives from each organiza-tion attended to accept a check for $2,500. These events were held to promote senior health and are examples of the communi-ty’s Masterpiece Living philosophy, which focuses on the importance of living an ac-tive lifestyle and maintaining good health.

Volunteers needed for third round of 2017 trail study along Monon Greenway in Carmel

The REPORTERCarmel Clay Parks & Recreation

(CCPR) is seeking volunteers to assist with a 2017 trail study that will occur from Aug. 7 to Aug. 13 along the Monon Green-way in Carmel. This is CCPR’s third round of participation in the trail study this year. The survey will be conducted by the Ep-pley Institute through Indiana University. The survey’s intention is to collect infor-mation regarding trail use, benefits and economic value and measure health factors as related to trail usage. This study follows up the nationally acclaimed 2001 Indiana Trails Study that provided valuable data to trail managers, trail advocates and the

State of Indiana.Volunteers are welcome to work along

the trail individually or in pairs and will have a variety of two-hour shifts from which to choose. Weekday morning, mid-day and afternoon shifts are available. There will also be a short training session at a time and date to be determined. Regis-tered volunteers will be notified when the training is scheduled.

“We’re excited to learn about our trail users and how they use the trails we have here in Carmel,” said Rachael Fleck, vol-unteer project coordinator. “Volunteers will help us a lot with the data collection in this groundbreaking study. It would be

difficult to accomplish without them.” Those interested in volunteering for

this project should register online at www.carmelclayparks.com/volunteer. There will be a total of four, seven-day data col-lection periods. The first two data collec-tion periods occurred in April and June and one more collection period will take place later this year in October. Trail counters will also be utilized along the nine trails to capture head counts. Data from the trail counters will be used to compare user pat-terns statewide.

Board members approved a resolution allowing the city to enter into a public-pri-

vate partnership agreement with the Hag-erman Group during its regular Monday meeting.

The new parking garage, to be partially used by the police department, is already under construction. The new police head-quarters structure will be 48,000 square feet, compared to the current headquarters building which contains 24,000 square feet of space.

Hagerman will construct the garage and new building. Fishers will then pur-chase the facilities from Hagerman under this agreement.

Department that began in late February has resulted in the arrest of a Noblesville School Corporation employee.

NPD indicated the investigation was focused on complaints of alleged crim-inal activity between Ted W. Weigel, 60, Indianapolis, and a number of students at Noblesville's White River Elementary be-tween Jan. 2, 2017, and March 6, 2017.

A statement from Noblesville School Corporation said, "It’s very upsetting to us that someone would violate the trust of our students. We have been cooperat-ing fully with Noblesville Police during their investigation. We are thankful that our process for reporting such incidents worked as intended. Our staff and stu-dents have all been trained on body safety issues and when students felt uncomfort-able they raised the issue with a trusted adult. We took those concerns seriously. Noblesville Schools immediately con-tacted the Noblesville Police Department and in addition, we conducted an internal investigation once allegations of inappro-priate behavior were brought to our atten-tion. The non-teaching staff member was placed on paid administrative leave during our investigation and once completed, we terminated his employment on February 28."

The Hamilton Southeastern (HSE) School Board took legal steps to move forward with build-ing projects at last Wednesday’s evening meeting.

The board adopted a resolution giving approval to prelimi-nary plans for the new elementary school building on Cyntheanne Road. This will pave the way for a public hearing at the next regular board session on the plans to finance the new, as-yet-unnamed school.

The board approved bids for the Cen-tral Office and Cumberland Road Elemen-tary school construction projects. Facilities Manager Harry Delks told board members the Cumberland Road Elementary work has been “a really challenging project,” but things “will be ready as they should be by the time school opens up.”

HSE School Board takes steps moving forward on building projects

The REPORTERThe Hamilton County Health Depart-

ment celebrated its 50th anniversary last Thursday at a public open house.

The event displayed historic vital re-cords going back 135 years. The depart-ment was actually organized in 1966, but the following year was its first full year in business. Operating out of a room in the basement of the old Courthouse, there were initially three employees: a nurse, a sanitarian and a secretary.

The first board, appointed by county commissioners in 1967, was composed of Dr. John Haywood, Dr. Haldon Kraft, Max Hunter, James Morris, Gerald John-son and Garrick Mallery. Mallery attend-ed Thursday's event.

“It’s been interesting. I’ve done a lot of things, but this was one of the high-lights of my life seeing it [the depart-ment] come along to where it is today," stated Mallery.

The health department has expanded dramatically as the county has grown. Health inspectors now check hundreds

of restaurants and other food handlers to protect the public from unsanitary con-ditions, provide immunizations for the county’s children, maintain all county

birth and death records, seek to eliminate dangerous mosquito breeding grounds and provide public education on best health practices among other services.

Happy, healthy birthday in Hamilton County

The REPORTERYou love the taste of anything fresh

from your garden. Imagine how delicious it will be for Hamilton County residents that rely on food pantries for their grocer-ies.

Throughout August, Always In Stitch-es, 1808 E. Conner St., Noblesville, will

collect fresh-from-the-garden (or farmers market or grocery store) produce for the pantry at New Beginnings Baptist Church in Noblesville as part of the Adopt a Food Pantry program the Hamilton County Soil and Water Conservation District created. Bushels of food will be appreciated as much as single handfuls and bunches –

whatever you can spare to share. Drop off donations from 10 a.m. to 4

p.m. any Monday. The pantry will distrib-ute them that evening.

Because these donations are fresh, the 10-year-old quilting, yarn and fabric shop can accept donations only on Mondays, Aug. 7, 14, 21 and 28.

The REPORTERHamilton County Harvest Food

Bank (HCH) has sponsored its second year of “Meating” The Need, a part-nership between 4-H Beef, Dairy and Swine projects and the Food Bank. HCH is a non-profit organization that supports local food pantries and feeding programs year round, all here in Hamilton County. This year HCH purchased seven beef and five swine at the Hamilton County 4-H Livestock Auction on Tuesday, July 25. The es-timated 3,500 pounds of meat will be used to supply twenty Hamilton County food pantries with farm fresh beef and pork raised by 4-H members. Meat Distribution Day will be Aug. 12. The ten 4-H members who have designated their animals for sale to the Food Bank will be helping to feed those families and children in our own community with good, healthy pro-tein.

Protein is an item that is often missing from our clients’ meals and hard to provide consistently by the pantries because of cost. When beef and pork are available, the families are so appreciative. Donations to this program will go towards the appraised market purchase price of the 4-H ani-mals and to the 4-H members as they pursue their 4-H, education and life goals. This year our ACTS (A Chance To Serve) students chose Meating the Need as their primary project as a ma-jority were involved in the 4-H live-stock projects also.

4-H members selling their animals this year were Karly Dean, Chloe Henderson, Madeline Teal, Maggie Adams, Nate Kavicky (Beef), Karissa Rulon, Emily Peterson, Jenna Peter-son, Rachel Adams and Nolan Miller (Swine).

HCH wishes to thank all of the generous donors that have contributed to fully fund this year’s project. Do-nors include: St. Christopher’s Epis-copal Church, White River Christian Church, Arcadia Christian Church with Angels Attic and HHELP, Pil-grim Lutheran Church, Becks Hy-brids, Biddle Memorial Foundation, Green Valley Church of Christ, Ham-ilton County Farm Bureau, Nobles-ville Township Trustee, Hamilton County Beef Cattlemen’s Association, Delaware Township Trustee, Ham-ilton County Pork Producers, David and Brenda Day, Fishers Do-It Cen-ter, Midwest Financial-Doug Sweet, Bethel Lutheran Food and Baby Pan-try, Bread of Life Pantry at Hazel Dell Christian, Open Arms Pantry at Aroma Methodist, Shepherds Gate Pantry at St. Maria Goretti, Sheridan Youth Assistance Food Pantry, Sheri-dan Lunch Club and Sunflower Pantry at Sheridan First Methodist and Fall Creek Township Trustee. Hoosiers Feeding the Hungry is donating all of the processing fees for the 12 animals.

HCH welcomes donations year round to support this initiative. Please send to HCH Food Bank, PO Box 881, Noblesville, IN 46061 or visit our website at www.HCHFoodBank.org and designate “Meating The Need”.

‘Meating the Need’ with 4-H’s help

The heartstrings of a moth-er stretch to wherever her chil-dren go. Mine just stretched a bit farther than I ever expect-ed.

It's Friday night about 11:00 and I just got a text from Emily. "We are just south of Nashville, Tennessee." By mid-morning on Saturday they should arrive in Tampa . . . their new home.

Emily, Drew, Aiden and Leah headed out of the drive-way about 5:00. The kids were told it would take about 16 hours to arrive where they would then call home. They have no idea how long 16 hours in a loaded down SUV can be. Neither can Emily and Drew. They have never taken a road trip. Not one.

Aiden is almost seven and Leah is 4 1/2. They really do not fully understand that they will be so far away from their friends and their Grandma Janet.

Aiden hugged his best friend, Cooper

and said, "I'm sure going to miss you man" as they said their goodbyes a few days earlier. Let's just say Cooper and Aiden might have no-ticed their moms had leaking eyes.

I've had a few moments where I found it difficult to wrap my mind, as well as my heart, around not being able to call Emily and meet for coffee on a moment’s no-tice. I call it the "empty hurt" when your heart just doesn't

understand what it is feeling. It just feels lost and empty.

On Friday, a few hours before they left, Emily called and asked me to go to Target with her. We laughed as she told me I was getting old because I did not want to take the interstate. I handed her the keys and said, "You drive and one day you will be old and you won't want to take the interstate."

As we went through the drive thru at Culver's she realized she had forgotten her

debit card. Of course, Mom to the rescue. I'm going to miss those rescues.

We got back to her house and I saw their SUV packed and ready to go. It honestly looked like a scene from the Chevy Chase "Vacation" movie. Suitcases, bags, car seats and their summer clothes were tucked into the SUV. A small trailer basket was attached with more bags and stuff. The moving van will come later when their house, in Fish-ers, sells.

Totes for Leah and Aiden were filled with things to occupy them for the LONG drive. Friends had supplied them well with snacks.

I got a text about 6:00 p.m. from Emily that they were just south of Greenwood and Aiden asked how many more hours they would be driving.

Like I said, it's going to be a long trip. I imagine Emily will hear a few "Are we there yet?"

If she looks in her rear view mirror she might notice a few strings also attached to the trailer. Those heartstrings will always follow her . . . wherever she goes.

Progress with Stage 4I just returned from an

eleven day trip to Vancou-ver and Alaska. Thus, I am trying to get back into the “flow”. My biggest goal is to get the kids ready for “back to school” and to get myself into top shape. Fortunately, getting the kids back into the groove is not too diffi-cult; however, getting my-self back into top shape is a constant challenge.

Chemo drugs can be brutal on weight gain. They can make you feel like you need to eat five meals a day. For someone who is used to being in shape, this is one of the hardest parts of cancer; however, I am slowly starting to make a “dent”. After my chemo treatments, I quickly gained 30 pounds. It is one thing to want to eat all of the time, but the real issue is not being healthy enough to counteract the desire for food with ample exercise.

However, things have improved and I started exercising right after Christ-mas. As I have stated in previous arti-cles, I have a chunk of lung that has been removed and I have a metal rod in my right humerus. The cancer also spread from my lungs to a vertebrae in my back

and into my right knee. I had a huge hole in the ver-tebrae. I had radiation a year ago and take a daily chemo pill. The miracle of modern medicine helped grow these two bones back into place — they regener-ate. Of all the things that I have been through, this is the one thing that amazes me. When cancer gets into your bones, it is incredibly painful. However, at least in my case, it was fixable.

Once the bones were healthy enough to exercise, I decided the best way to get rid of the weight gain was to exercise. I joined Orange Theory which consists of running on a treadmill, rowing on a rower and lifting hand weights. When I first started, it was a real challenge to breathe. In fact it took me 5.5 months before I could run on the treadmill. Un-fortunately, I also had two big falls on the treadmill. In both cases the person using the treadmill before me did not turn it off . . . I was tired and did not no-tice that it was still running and stepped on it and “face planted” both times. For-tunately, my brain somehow kicked in and managed to turn to my left side in

mid-air so that I fell on my left arm and not my right arm that already has a rod in it.

When I first started, I could only work out three times a week. I am now up to five times a week. Furthermore, I also could not lift any weight with my right arm nor do any push-ups due to the rod in my arm. I can now lift 10 pounds with my right arm and I am able to do “modified” push-ups.

The other big issue with Stage 4 cancer is that it can be very depressing. However, exercise does wonders for the mind. In the beginning they put me on an antidepressant which also contribut-ed to weight gain. My whole goal was to get myself to a position in which I could exercise and thus, I could stop taking the pills. I am ecstatic that I have reached that goal.

Cancer is brutal but I am very happy to have an athletic background that in many ways has been very instrumental in helping me deal with setbacks and given me the mindset to go forward. This is a big battle and all I can do is take a “go forward attitude”. I have also been very blessed with family and friends that provide unbelievable support. Stage 4 is a big opponent, but I have a ton of sup-port and will continue to fight.

Getting sweeton Turkey Run,

Sugar CreekSometimes

we Hoosiers don't sufficient-ly appreciate the great attrac-tions we have here in Indiana. Last week with the relatively cool and sunny weather, I spent a couple of days at Turkey Run State Park. There was no special reason, it was just to get away from home a little while.

I had never spent much time at Turkey Run even though I like the state parks and have often been to Spring Mill, Brown Coun-ty, McCormick's Creek and the Dunes.

I knew our parks were among the best because a college friend of mine who headed parks in New York State told me ours stack up well or perhaps better than theirs. But, to visit one of ours served to remind just how true that is.

Unfortunately, we have no state parks in Hamilton County. That's largely because the topography in the southern and western parts of the state offer better potential for park sites. Turkey Run is an example of this. Its 2,400 acres are almost entirely wooded with a largely hilly terrain.

Sugar Creek, although called a creek, is more like a small river and cuts across the park through a deep gorge. The creek is popular for canoeing. A pedestrian suspension bridge, not for the faint-hearted, is an attraction.

Hiking, horseback riding and swimming are also offered. And, history is not over-looked. There is an original covered bridge within the park as well as the early 19th cen-tury Salmon Lusk homestead with a two-sto-ry, federal style brick house that looks a lot like the William Conner home.

The Turkey Run Inn is an attractive but not lavish hotel. Its dining room offers rea-sonably priced meals. It's popular with our Illinois neighbors whose state parks, I am guessing, are more expensive and more crowded.

Turkey Run is not crowded. In fact, you wonder why more folks are not there at the height of the summer season. Might be be-cause no liquor is served, but more likely be-cause state park inns aren't particularly well promoted.

Anyway, as you can guess, I think it's a great place for a mini-vacation and highly recommend it.

Hamilton County recognized for e-government solutionsThe REPORTER

Hamilton County has been honored by the Center for Digital Government and the National Association of Counties for its ef-forts to streamline delivery of government services using technology.

The county placed eighth in its size cat-egory in the 15th annual Digital Counties Survey, which recognizes the best technol-ogy practices nationwide.

“Digital counties are leveraging tech-nology to improve the ways they conduct business and engage with citizens in in-creasingly innovative and exciting ways,”

Center for Digital Government Executive Director Todd Sander said in a news re-lease announcing the honorees. “The Cen-ter for Digital Government congratulates this year’s winners for their work to reduce costs, encourage citizen engagement, in-crease efficiencies and proactively address citizen expectations.”

Ten winners were named in each of five population categories. Hamilton County competed in the third-largest group, against other counties with 250,000-499,999 resi-dents. Douglas County, Col., placed first in the category. No other Indiana counties

placed among the Top 10 in any category.The 2017 winners were recognized

July 22 at the National Association of Counties conference in Columbus, Ohio.

“As technology continues to grow in all facets of our lives, county governments are adapting and innovating,” said associ-ation Executive Director Matthew Chase. “The Digital Counties Survey spotlights how counties deploy technology to en-hance services and benefit residents while being responsible stewards of taxpayer re-sources.”

Hamilton County government has long

recognized the value of technology as a cost-effective way to enhance services. Over time, the county has been judiciously implementing e-government solutions.

It has been recognized with a Digital County Award in 14 out of the last 15 years. Hamilton County did not enter in 2016.

“This is not a quick or easy task, but we are committed to serving you in the most effective manner possible,” said Chris Mertens, director of Information Technol-ogy for the county. “Please rest assured that we are moving in the right direction, for the right reasons.”

By RICHIE HALLReporter Sports Editor

The Sheridan football team was all over the place this summer.

The Blackhawks did their fair share of scrim-maging during the vacation months, taking on schools of different varieties and sizes. Sheridan is taking this week off, but will be back at it on Monday as the official practices begin.

Bud Wright, soon to be-gin his 52nd year of coach-ing the 'Hawks (53rd year overall) listed all of the op-ponents his Sheridan team scrimmaged over the sum-mer, and it was a lengthy one. The Blackhawks went down to Indianapolis for a scrimmage with Arlington, but other than that stayed mostly in the north-central part of the state.

The Blackhawks had scrimmages against South-wood, Frankfort, North Miami, Tri-County, Trad-ers Point, Kokomo, East-brook and Logansport.

"We tried to get a vari-ety," said Wright. That en-abled Sheridan to see dif-ferent teams and different outlooks.

"I'm happy the progress we've made so far," said Wright. "We're coming along decently." The coach said that "things are begin-ning to fall into place" and that the 'Hawks have "ac-complished a lot."

There is some good experience returning for Sheridan. Leading the way will be senior Joey Calla-han, who rushed for 2041 yards last season, with an average of 5.7 yards per carry. Callahan scored 18 touchdowns.

Junior quarterback Drake Delph is also back.

He threw the ball well last year, totaling nine touch-downs, and could also score on the run, with sev-en TDs. Delph had well over 1000 all-purpose yards, with 650 yards pass-ing and 468 more on the ground.

Two more seniors, Gunner Williams and Bro-dy Perry, will also figure into the offensive scheme, as will junior Rhett Wil-liams. Gunner Williams had 18 catches last season, with Perry and Rhett Wil-liams both scoring three receiving touchdowns.

Senior Tanner Swindle and juniors Karl Whaley and Jesse Kolb are also back; Kolb was a defensive standout, making 92 to-tal tackles. Also returning are senior Hunter Pflugh, junior Nick Burnell and sophomore Chris Starks, all of whom had solid de-fensive seasons.

"We got several kids back on both sides of the ball," said Wright.

Sheridan's schedule is a little different this season, due to changes in the Hoo-sier Heartland Conference. The league was formerly 10 teams, split up into two five-team divisions, with the two leaders playing at the end of the season for a conference championship.

But this season, three schools (North White, Tri-County and Frontier) left the HHC, leaving sev-en schools in the league. So, the conference has gone back to a traditional schedule, with the teams all playing each other to determine the champion.

Sheridan's first two opponents are the same, old rivals Western Boone and Clinton Central (also an HHC opponent). The

Blackhawks were already playing all but one confer-ence team before this year. The missing team was Clinton Prairie; Sheridan picked up Prairie for its Week 5 contest.

Another new opponent is South Decatur, who the Blackhawks welcome for their Week 9 game. Tip-ton completes Sheridan's non-conference schedule with a Week 7 game.

Blackhawks on good trajectory

Brian Reddick / File photoSheridan’s Joey Callahan rushed for over 2000 yards and 18 touchdowns in his junior season last year. Callahan is one of several good players coming back this year for the Blackhawks.

The REPORTERWestfield's Josh Kehl added his name

to the list of Hamilton County golfers that have won summer tournaments by win-ning the Indiana Golf Foundation's Mas-ters Tour Championship.

The tournament took place last Mon-day and Tuesday at Prairie View Golf Club

in Carmel. Kehl need-ed a playoff to get past Zionsville's Graham Vogtman, but won the playoff to claim the championship.

In the 36-hole event, Kehl finished with a three-under par 141. He totaled six birdies over the tour-

nament. Also landing in the top 10 were Noblesville's Danny Paris, who placed sixth with a 149 and four birdies, and Car-mel's Stephen Kocerha, who tied for sev-enth with a 153 and three birdies.

In the girls event, Fishers' Morgan Lewis was the highest-placing county golfer, tying for eighth. Lewis made four birdies on her way to scoring a 158.

Editor's Note: Carmel High School football coach John Hebert provided this ar-ticle to the Hamilton County Reporter about who is returning for the defending Class 6A state champion Greyhounds, as well as some information about what the team has been up to this summer.

The Carmel Greyhounds had a pro-ductive summer of work on the field and in the weight room. A choice was made not to scrimmage with any outside oppo-nents nor participate in 7-on-7 competi-tions. Instead, we focused on improving our internal practice methods and film study.

Offensively, Carmel has one returning starter, quarterback Jake McDonald who threw for 2400 yards, 31 touchdowns and nine interceptions. Jake has been a strong leader this summer and continues to de-velop. Atticus Clouse showed signs of being a great playmaker for Carmel as a slot receiver after a strong track season. He is very fast and catches the ball well. We expect him to have a great season. Our offensive line is the biggest surprise of the summer. Led by Zac Bowman, a senior with a few starts in 2016, the unit has shown great promise in both run and pass situations. Juniors, Caleb Shaffer, Matt Kleppinger, and Sloan Goldblatt have had a great summer, along with se-nior Jon Vanzetta, and junior, Dominic Cate. Sophomore Haakon Van Beynon has established himself as the frontrun-ner for the starting TE spot, but junior Sheridan transfer, Rhett Williams is also in the mix. At running back, senior Will Schmidt, junior Camari Hunt, and sopho-more Dylan Downing are all great weap-ons with a variety of skillsets.

Defensively, the summer has been a great opportunity for developing depth at defensive line, linebacker and in the secondary. The defensive line looks to be another strength of the team. Beau Robbins is an outstanding defensive end who holds five Big Ten offers as a junior. Seniors Vance Roudebush and Jack Frey have done very well, as has Brebeuf Jesuit transfer, Cole Brevard, a sophomore that is 6-foot-3, 255 pounds. Joey Schmidt (second leading tackler in 2016 with a Bowling Green offer), Alex Brown, and Matt Boyer had strong sum-mer sessions at linebacker. Ben Leary, Matthew Wolfe, and Nate Frey all return as starters in the Greyhound secondary and have performed very well. Leary is also getting reps at linebacker. Mark Al-len, Andrew Colombo, Nick Leinbaugh, and Jake Nichols are all seniors that have

made a big impact this summer in the sec-ondary.

Carmel returns Conner Coghlan at placekicker after going 14-of-15 on field goals in 2016 including 3-of-3 in the Class 6A state championship game. Coghlan is

also a very strong punter and will add depth there along with Zachary Bradley who returns from a great 2016 season. Bradley is also a starter at fullback.

We are very excited for the 2017 sea-son. This season we have an opponent

for the controlled scrimmage for the first time in several years. East Central visits Carmel Stadium on Aug. 12 before the Hounds travel to Louisville to play the Kentucky defending state champions, the Trinity Shamrocks, on Aug. 19.

Greyhounds look inside to improve

Brian Reddick/File photoQuarterback Jake McDonald (13) and kicker Connor Coghlan (1) led Carmel to the Class 6A state championship last season. Both McDonald and Coghlan return for their senior seasons.

The REPORTERAnna Appert Lund, playing out of

Carmel's Prairie View Golf Club, cruised through the second round and that sent her to the winner's circle at the Indiana PGA Women's Open.

Appert Lund finished last Wednesday's second round with a six-under par 66. Add that to her first round score of 70, and that gave her an eight-under par 136 for the event. Appert Lund made 13 birdies during the tournament, including eight on the sec-ond day.

Brittany Kelly, a former Hamilton Southeastern star playing out of Carmel's Woodland Country Club, tied for third place with a two-under par 144. Kelly di-vided up her six tournament birdies evenly, making three in each round.

Westfield's Cailyn Henderson, just days away from beginning her senior year as a Shamrock, finished tied for ninth with 149. Henderson had three birdies for the event.

With a nice mix of experience and strong freshman, expect another solid season from the Carmel girls golf team in 2017.

The Greyhounds finished fifth at the state meet last year, and have the ingredi-ents to make a return trip this year. Leading the way are three seniors, an All-State ju-nior and seven freshmen ready to start their careers as Greyhounds.

"We look for our seniors and returning players to lead the team," said third-year Carmel coach Kelly Kluesner. "We have quite a few freshmen that will make a sol-

id impact on the team this year. We are ex-cited for tryouts (Fri-day and Saturday) and look to build upon the successful summer tournaments the play-ers had."

A top returner is junior Nina Hecht, who finished tied for seventh at state last year and was named to the All-State team. Senior Erin Evans also played on the state team last year, as did junior Libby Mc-Guire.

The two other seniors are Lahiri Chit-turi, who played junior varsity last year, and Alex Waples, who went back and forth between varsity and JV. Returning juniors include Lucy Frey, Calli Kohl and Ella

Woods, all of whom move up from JV. Sophomore Elizabeth Hedrick played in a couple varsity matches, in addition to most-ly JV meets last season. Marney Jones also has JV match experience.

The Greyhounds will play four invita-tionals in their first four days of the season, first traveling to the Bloomington South In-vitational on Monday. Next up is the Ham-ilton Southeastern Invitational at Stony Creek on Tuesday, where Carmel will see several Hamilton County opponents.

After that, the 'Hounds head to the Golf Club of Indiana on Wednesday for the Zi-onsville Invitational, then play the Crooked Stick Invitational on Thursday.

After graduating one of the state's top players last season, it's not surprising that the Hamilton Heights girls golf team will look a little different this season.

The Huskies will be "quite young and pretty inexperienced," in the words of their coach Kim Drake. There are no seniors on this year's team. But there will be some varsity experience, thanks to three return-ing letter winners and another golfer who is back after taking a year off.

The top returner is a junior, Kate Biggs, one of the letter winners who is back. The other two are sophomores: Alyx Harley and Ellie Arrowood. All of them played

regularly on the varsi-ty last season.

"Kate and Ellie have been involved with lessons since last season and I am confident there will be good improvement from both of them," said Drake.

Lexi Tucker played for Heights in her freshman year, but didn't play last year. She returns this season, and Drake notes that Tucker brings athleticism to the team and has "shown a lot of improvement."

"I am sure she will factor in to our top five players," said Drake.

After that, there's not much experi-ence on the team. A key freshman could be Rebekah Steffen, who moved into the Heights district from Avon. Steffen played golf as a junior high student, and Drake said he's hopeful that she will play a role for the Huskies.

Heights will be moving ahead with a tough schedule this season, starting with a trip to the Plainfield Invitational on Mon-

day. The Huskies then play at the Hamil-ton Southeastern Invitational on Tuesday, where they will see other Hamilton County teams - meaning some of the best teams in the state.

Drake said that many of this year's golf-ers watched Caitie Gehlhausen, one of the most successful golfers in Heights history, last season. Gehlhausen achieved her goal of playing in the state tournament last year and is now off to play Division I golf at High Point University in North Carolina.

With Gehlhausen graduating, this year's Huskies will be in a new position of taking on leadership responsibilities, said Drake.

"It will be interesting to see who begins to step up in those areas," said Drake.

The girls in the class that set new stan-dards for the Westfield girls golf team are now seniors.

State qualifiers since they were fresh-men, this year's Shamrock seniors have led their team to a runner-up finish at state over the past two seasons. Now they're ready to make one more run at the state championship.

"This season looks to be an extremely exciting one for us. We have four seniors on our roster that have put a lot of time and energy into making our program what it has become and they are a determined group. With their experience and the com-bination of the younger talent we have, it is our goal again this year that we put our-selves in a position to have a chance to win each event we play," said Westfield coach Trevor Neu.

The four seniors are Cailyn Hender-son, Adrienne Montalone, Margaret Wentz and Emma Clary. Henderson is an All-State player three years run-ning and tied for individual run-ner-up honors as a freshman, and since then has gone on to be one of the state's leading players. The other three seniors have all been varsity play-ers since they were freshmen.

Also back is Jocelyn Bruch. Last year, she made an immediate impact on the Shamrocks team, and was named to the All-State team as well. Two more sophomores are on the roster: Natalie Shupe, who played a few varsity matches last season and Grace Sny-der, who moves up from junior varsity.

As it has in the past, Westfield will hit the ground running once the season offi-cially begins on Monday. The Shamrocks will play four tournaments in the first four days, starting with the Bloomington South Invitational. On Tuesday, Westfield travels to Stony Creek for the Hamilton South-eastern Invitational, where they will see fellow Hamilton County teams.

The Shamrocks will then head to the Golf Club of Indiana on Wednesday for the Zionsville Invitational, then go to Crooked Stick on Thursday for an invitational there.

"Last season was a fantastic year for us and we look to continue to build off of that success and the experience we gained," said Neu. "There are so many good teams in the state this year and within our own conference so each match and invitational will be a grind. It is our goal to use the chal-lenge of the invitationals we play to help us put together another run in postseason and compete for a State Championship."
