What started nearly 10 years ago as a hyper local website for Geist Reservoir residents has entered an expansion phase in the Indianapolis metro area. Tom Britt, the founder of the TownePost Network of websites and hyper local newsletters, announced that the Fishers (atFishers.com) and Zionsville (atZionsville.com) Community Newsletters will be launching in 2013 to compliment their existing atGeist.com, atCarmel.com, and atCenterGrove.com properties.
“As print, Internet, and video medias converge locally, we’re positioning ourselves to be a news and small business promotional conduit for the communities we serve,” Britt said. “Fishers and Zionsville round out our North side presence and give our advertising sponsors good penetration in these local markets.”
In February, approximately 14,000 Fishers residents will being receiving the Fishers Community Newsletter in their mailboxes published by Laurie and Matt Quinn. A Fishers family of four living near Hamilton Southeastern High School, the Quinns recently licensed the area from the TownePost Network launching them into a profitable publishing business. Zionsville will be launching in April serving the Zionsville area on Indianapolis’s northwest side.
This expansion comes on the heals of the announcement that the Carmel Community Newsletter licensing rights have been sold to former Indianapolis radio icons John and Ann Craig-Cinnamon.
“We have the highest advertiser retention rate in any media for one simple reason: it works,” added Britt. “People want to support locally owned businesses. We facilitate positive content that help create that sense of community that every resident wants.”
Future plans call for expansion on the west side and downtown Indianapolis. For more information on licensing information, contact Tom Britt at 317-496-3599 or email [email protected].

There’s nothing like a milestone birthday to bring about positive change in one’s life. For Mindy Irish, the magic number was 35. Two days earlier, she gave birth to her 4th child and was 95 pounds overweight. This pivotal event occurred in early October, 2009. “Reading about the ill health effects of excess weight, I could feel that change was in order,” said Mindy. Most importantly, she wanted to feel better about herself.
Mindy’s past was littered with failed diet attempts. One diet program would start, she would lose some weight, then get pregnant again and be happy she could “eat” again. After the birth of their 4th baby, she vowed to avoid the yo-yo effect again. The solution was to make some lifestyle changes.
Working with her husband in realty and remodeling, and being a mom, finding time to exercise is a challenge.
Making small changes, Mindy started out by slowly adding exercise into her already busy daily routine. With four kids 6 and under, life is in constant motion, so she took that motion to the Fishers YMCA. Able to capitalize on the childcare available, Mindy was able to work out with weights on a regular
basis and make time for cardio. With the support of her husband, Dan, Mindy was able to stay on task. “You make it a priority, like brushing your teeth – it’s a daily activity that isn’t skipped,” said Mindy. Over the next two years, Mindy was successful at losing the 95 pounds.
Last year, the possibilities of where this weight lifting and exercise could take Mindy began to materialize. She was encouraged through a friend to attend a Physique competition. “I never pictured myself on stage in that skimpy bathing suit, but I realized it was a potential option.” Mindy decided that if she could keep the weight off successfully in a year’s time, she would compete. Common with most extreme weight loss patients, Mindy had some 7 pounds of extra skin surgically removed. Having successfully maintained her weight for over a year, she made the tough decision to proceed with the surgery. Coming off the surgery with 23 weeks until the competition, Mindy is focused on her goal.
The National Physique committee oversees many competitions locally, regionally, and nationally. This includes bodybuilding, fitness, and figure competitions. Mindy will be competing in the “open” category for “figure” which is divided by height. Apparently, all contestants must wear a 2-piece with the bottom being a ‘V’ shape and high heels. Not lacking self-confidence, Mindy is counting the days and weeks until the big day. She even has a blog about her experience, fitgalclub.com. “I want other moms to know that the weight loss is possible and very achievable. If I could do this, so can anyone!”
Determination, when directed in a healthy way, has served Mindy well. She credits her mind set. The weight loss has been the result. She owns it, takes full responsibility for her body, and that body has responded well. It’s a daily sacrifice, but it has been worthwhile. Positive habits have an energy all their own, and she is certainly channeling hers!
Fishers Mom Makeover
Kara Reibel, owner of Geist Pilates, has been a fitness professional for over 25 years. She is the mother of 3 kids and lives in the Geist area.
I want other moms to know that the weight loss is possible and very achievable. If I could
do this, so can anyone!

The Indianapolis Yacht Club will host the 3rd Annual Vines for Life – Connecting the Causes on February 22. Elite Beverages will provide unique wines for the evening, giving attendees an opportunity to sample over 60 wines from around the world including: Great Cabernets from Napa Valley, Elegant Champagnes from France, robust reds from Italy, lively whites from New Zealand and the list goes on. New this year will be a Craft Beer Tasting area. This local event has evolved over the years to be one of the main fundraisers for three local cancer charities: Creating Hope, Indy SurviveOars, and Team Luke.
Most of the time we go to an event like this not knowing
how it all started. So this is the back story of Vines for Life I thought you might enjoy.
After an interview with John and Tina Gianfagna in 2004, atGeist.com Publisher Tom Britt came home and talked to his wife, Jeanne, about his interview.
“We need to help these people,” he said. “They just lost their daughter Jeannette to breast cancer last year and they are hosting a walk this fall in Windermere for her charity, Creating Hope.”
A feature story followed in the Geist Community Newsletter, more importantly the seed of friendship between the Britts and Gianfagnas was planted. Jeanne felt an immediate connection to the Gianfagnas’ mission having lost her own mother to cancer. In her mother’s last months, the time she most enjoyed was the time spent working with arts and crafts.
Tom and Jeanne concocted a plan to do a southern Indiana wine tour, and with the help of the Gianfagnas, hosted the first of three all-day bus tours of various southern Indiana wineries.

“We had a great time on the tours, but it just wasn’t raising enough money to warrant the amount of time we were all putting into it,” said Tom.
“When you think at that moment that it is possible – then the MAGIC starts…”
After taking a year off, the notion of a wine tour evolved into a larger scale wine tasting. Instead of touring Indiana wineries, why not bring global wineries to Geist and host a wine tasting at the iconic symbol of the area – The Indianapolis Yacht Club.
Ray Cox, owner of Elite Beverages, had supported various fundraisers in which Tom and Jeanne had been involved. The Britts invited Cox and Susan Cotter, a wine representative with a local distributor, to dinner at the Yacht Club to discuss the idea.
“Before we could get the words ‘would you help’ out of our mouths, Ray and Susan had already committed to support the inaugural event,” said Tom.
The name “Vines for Life” came about when the discussion turned to the grape vines – a plant with a long, thin stem that grows along the ground or climbs up to support the grapes. Without the vine, wine could not be produced. Likewise, without community support, local cancer charities cannot thrive.
Before the dinner was over, the four had agreed to organize a charity event that would not only support Creating Hope, but also two other local cancer charities, Indy SurviveOars and Team Luke.
Creating HopeJeanette Gianfagna Shamblen (36) was a breast cancer patient battling against all odds to survive. One day her sister, Diane, gave her a gift of paints, paper and brushes. Even though she was not an artist, when she painted she felt better. This creative time was free from worries and pain. Drawing and painting gave her peace in a way she couldn’t quite explain. This feeling grew into an idea to share a message with other cancer patients to help them cope with cancer through self-expression and creativity … inspiring them to find a moment away from their pain and fears as they made their way through each day toward survival.
Jeanette didn’t win her battle with cancer, passing away on July 3, 2003. But she left Creating Hope in the loving care of her parents, John and Tina Gianfagna, who now work tirelessly to provide the free HOPE Kits to other
cancer patients and families. They have become the spirit of delivering Jeanette’s wonderful gift to other cancer patients their daughter would never meet.
No one can go it alone. Somewhere along the line is that one person who gives you faith that you can make it …
Team LukeTeam Luke is the inspiration of one small little boy, who, at the age of three, was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia. During his grueling treatment, Luke Andritsch found comfort and healing while playing bongos.
As time went on, Luke realized that sharing the positive effects of rhythm, percussion and musical expression, during and after treatment, was something he wanted to share with other kids who were sick.
“I want other kids to feel the way I feel when I play my music,” he said. Today, Luke has expanded his musical interests to include the drums and congas. In July of 2010, Luke finished his 3-1/2 years of treatment and has grown into a handsome guy wise beyond his years.
“When I was little, my dream was to work with Spiderman to find a cure for cancer. Then Spiderman and me would web ourselves hospital to hospital and pass out toys to all the sick children and make them all better. And then we would give all the kids the book, If You Give a Moose a Muffin,” he wrote at the age of six.

His parents, Vicky and Todd Andritsch, set it all in motion in 2008 when they established “Team Luke” as a way for Luke to give back to other children going through their cancer treatment. All the money they raise goes to support the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. What started as a number of friends raising money at local events has grown to include hundreds of supporters from multiple states.
What Luke is most proud of would have to be the Patient Well-Being Programs which also includes the families. Luke created the “RhythmPax – Feel the Cure!” kits which he hands out when he visits the kids at Riley Hospital. These healing kits include: a Kalimba (thumb piano); a kids’ DVD movie; rain sticks (which produce rain-like sounds); a Team Luke DVD in which Luke talks about the healing benefits of music; Not-So-Loud-Sound Shakes; a drawing by Luke of an Angel; and a lucky penny. The penny is included because Luke began collecting pennies found along the way on walks with his mom. Today, these gathered pennies have found a home covering the walls of their entire laundry room.
Without doubt, Luke belongs in the hero category, right along with Spiderman and Superman, because he lives the life of helping those who most need his vision of conquering their battles with cancer. Music was and is the driving, healing factor in Luke’s remarkable journey.
Isn’t faith believing all powers can’t be seen!
Indy SurviveOarsDragon Boat Racing is often referred to as a floating support group for breast cancer patients and survivors. It is also Indiana’s only breast cancer dragon boat racing team! Their name reflects their hometown connection and pays homage to
the steer oarsperson who guides the dragon boat on its course. The breast cancer survivors train to paddle together; support each other, learn from one another and overcome fear.
Dragon boat racing began over 2,000 years ago in China and eventually made its way to North America in the l980s. Now considered the fastest growing team water sport in the world, it features sleek, slender boats decorated with dragon hands and propelled by 20 paddlers working in unison. The drummer beats out the pace, while a steer oarsperson guides the dragon boat on its course. The Indy SurviveOars dragon boat is 50 feet in length and carries several distinctions. The Indiana boat is the first pink dragon boat that boat manufacturer, Swift Dragon Boats of China, has ever made. The Indy boat’s head and tail are the first in the world to be custom-designed and painted pink, which is estimated to be the 50th breast cancer team boat to launch in the U.S.
Kathy Martin Harrison did not have cancer when she decided to pitch in her oar to start this paddling group in 2007. The cause of support for women with breast cancer became the guiding light for those women who were in the race of their life.
Genie Barker, current President of Indy SurviveOars, is a six-year breast cancer survivor. “Today, our group supports about 60 active members and care-givers who paddle in the waters of Geist (Geist is the practice body of water for Indy SurviveOars). We participate in races across the United States and Canada, and took a first place win in June (2012) in Chicago,” she added with a big smile. “Our goal is to raise funds to support the growing number of women who would benefit from this sport. Being on the water and rowing forward is the essence of a journey together,” she added.
There are two dragon boats taken out for practice three times a week for seven months of the year. Boat repairs and providing safe equipment is necessary for the team’s existence. Currently, Community Regional Cancer Care, Community Health Network Foundation, Community Hospital Oncology Physicians Anuj Agarwala, Pablo Bedano, Sumeet Bhatia and Radhika Walling are the team’s premier sponsors. It can be said that water is the healing body for supporting life. Indy SurviveOars certainly contributes to this thought.
After learning about this group, and all they do together, the lyrics of “… row, row, row, row your boat” should present a new, special meaning!
So now you know a little bit about how Vines for Life began – from the humble beginnings of a few friends and families riding together on a bus to taste Indiana wines, to the front door of the Yacht Club to celebrate and support life, proves that when people gather for the cause of another, something wonderful happens!
Several wine tasting stations are set up around the perimeter of the Indianapolis Yacht Club with heavy appetizers served all evening in the center area.

Simeri’s Italian Restaurant owner Arec Simeri with Dad, Danny and brother, Christopher.

Simeri’s Italian Restaurant opens in Geist (10410 Olio Road) after much anticipation from area neighbors and a growing following on their facebook page.
Arec Simeri – who owns the restaurant with his father, Danny, and his brother, Christopher, with sister, Anna, managing the bar — is no stranger to restaurants using social media. The first-time restaurant owner worked at Scotty’s Lakehouse prior to opening his own place. The Simeri family has also been in the restaurant business for several decades with pizza shops in northern Indiana.
“We kept hearing how this area needed an authentic Italian restaurant,” says Arec. “So we’re opening just that with some of great grandmother’s – “Nanna’s” — recipes that were brought over from Italy.”
The result is a relaxed restaurant/bar with tables covered in checkerboard tablecloths and a menu of pasta, pizza, and sandwiches including the crowning jewel of the kitchen, “Rocco’s Meatball Sub,” named after yet another relative. “Its covered in our special marinara sauce,” says Arec. “You gotta try it!”
The Simeri family also takes pride in their beer selection which features several local producers such as “Three Floyds Brewing” and seasonals from Sun King.
While I was visitng Simeri’s, several stopped in to check it out; and one guest requested a gift certificate. “We don’t have any printed up yet,” explained Arec, who thought for a moment and then had another response. “But, if you give me a minute, I will make you one!”
Now that’s the local feel you want from a neighborhood Italian restaurant.
Mamma Mia! “Nanna” would be proud!

Chris Cutter can joke about being accident prone. That’s only because it was just a big part of life for him for quite a while.
“I’m just a normal guy, but at one time I wasn’t all so sure. It seemed like if something could happen to me, then it probably would,” the Fishers High School senior said while toweling off after a practice session.
It all started with having seven concussions from playing football as an eighth grader and freshman. Then after sudden numbness in his legs struck, Cutter was told he had micro fractures in his lower back.
L - a - p - p - e - dFishers High school’s Chris Cutter sets his sights on state16 geist c o m m u n i t y n e w s l e t t e r | j a n u a r y 2 0 1 3
“Basically, I was swimming with a broken back,” said Cutter, who later missed a month of water time because of a hip flexer.
He finished seventh in the 500-yard freestyle as a sophomore, and had a great summer of training and competing, and just missed Junior National cuts in the backstroke events and the distance freestyle.
About midway through his junior season, Cutter started complaining of numbness in his legs. This was affecting his turns and breakouts, and subsequently, his times. Before the state meet that year, a doctor discovered that he was swimming with micro fractures in his lower back, causing nerve problems. Amazingly, he still placed seventh in the 500 and 15th in the 100 Back at State, despite the devastating news.
“After months of therapy, he is back to training hard, tough, again; we are eager to see how he performs this season,” said his coach Jay Chambers. “Chris is a tough kid, quite a competitor.”
Cutter, team captain for the Tigers who has signed a letter of intent to attend Eastern Michigan, was told by his doctor that those micro fractures were years old – probably football related. So Cutter quit football to swim because of concussion issues. “I had played lacrosse and football, but I really liked football and wanted to follow in my dad’s shoes,” said Chris. His dad, Rob Cutter, was a standout quarterback at Noblesville High School and Butler University. He posted a 132-49 record in 12 years coaching Hamilton Southeastern football. He also led the Royals to state runner-up finishes in 1997 (Class 4A) and 2007 (Class 5A). “That was tough for me, since I grew up around football. But my parents were supportive of me turning to swimming.
“It’s ironic that football actually drove me to swimming,” he added with a slight chuckle. “I had always liked swimming, and when the Fishers coach suggested I give it a try, I discovered I could handle the training, and I did pretty well. It’s a grueling sport, but it came pretty easy for me.”
Cutter missed two months of training because of the micro fractures.
“I really can’t say I’ve had any problems recently, but the biggest thing after rehab was the mental aspect of returning to the sport,” Cutter said. “Mentally, it really was hard. When I was diagnosed with a broken back, well, that was the darkest moment in my athletic career. There was the uncertainty of not knowing for sure if I’d ever be able to swim competitively again. Or if I could, would I be where I was before the injuries? And then there was the mental part. Mentally, it was tough to overcome what I’ve gone
through. The biggest thing was just getting myself prepared, mentally.”
Now, Cutter says he doesn’t think about what happened. He just thinks about competing and winning. His toughness and competitiveness were at their best last year in the state meet. He had to undergo a three-way swim off in the 100 backstroke after he already had swum the 100, 500, medley relay, and 400 relay. “I knew I was back after that,” Cutter said. “That was grueling. But I kept pushing myself. That’s what’s great about swimming – you can push yourself. I mean it’s like no other sport I’ve been involved in.”
Cutter, whose 100 backstroke time of 52.16 ranks 6th best in the state, thinks he can do better in what he says is his best event, even though his 500 free time of 4:38.45 was third best in the state last year. “I can get my time under 50….that’s what it’ll take,” he said.
“Can you win state this year?” he was asked. “Absolutely. That’s a goal, of course, and I think I’m capable,” he said.
j a n u a r y 2 0 1 3 | geist c o m m u n i t y n e w s l e t t e r 17
“But I don’t set placing goals as much as I do improvement goals. My main thinking is that I want to beat the guys next to me. If I do, then I’ll like the outcome. I’ve overcome a lot of adversity, and I want to finish on a high note.”
Cutter is pretty busy and successful out of the pool, too. He’s a member of the National Honor Society; a Student Athletic Council representative; and is involved with Best Buddies, a national organization that focuses on enhancing the lives of those with intellectual disabilities by pairing them in one-on-one relationships. “I’m in our school’s Best Buddies chapter but am not paired with anyone this year. My buddy graduated two years ago,” Chris said.
He’s also been the junior, senior, and at-large rep for the Indiana Swimming Board of Directors. And he just recently was named to the USA Swimming Age Group Development Committee.
It would appear that a lot of good things are within reach for Chris Cutter – state, college, and life in general. Mentally, he seems ready, and he’s certainly got a good perspective. And, of course, he’ll continue to push himself to be the best he can be.

sagamore advisors of raymond james Photo by Brian Bosmer

It isn’t easy in the business world to convey a mission statement that speaks to the core of your business operation.
“We spent a lot of time on the genuine nature of our new partnership as we opened our new branch office in Fishers with Raymond James & Associates,” said Bill Gray, Senior Vice President of Investments and Branch Manager.
“It was important for us as financial investment advisors to connect with the public and business leaders in the corporate world with a simplistic way to describe the role we play in helping them prepare for the future,” added David J. Brandvik (Senior Vice President, Investments Financial Advisor).
“As partners, we have over 30 years each in the financial investment field. As a team, we have worked together over the years helping so many clients with their goal of finding managers and success in financial paths that can generate returns for the risk being assumed,” added David R. Slaughter (Senior Vice President, Investments Financial Advisor).
Gray has a long-time interest in history, especially American Indian. He has a farm in Green County with a prehistoric Indian village located on his property. It seemed natural that he would connect the name “Sagamore” with Indian history that documents that the chiefs of Indian tribes created a special Wisdom Council advisor to turn to for guidance when confronting important life issues. This wisdom counselor, called a Sagamore, was seen as a trusted confidant to the chief and his tribe.
“This is exactly what we do, so the name Sagamore connects and reflects the trust that is so needed in an advising role such as we have at Raymond James,” added Brandvik.
Thus, this core team of Sagamore Advisors of Raymond James & Associates, Inc., certainly fit together perfectly
with these investment partners who are located in a community where they work and live. They bring to the table simplicity, focus and balance in creating a comprehensive wealth plan for you and your family.
The world of financial investment can be a very gray and complicated matter for most of us, but the partners took me through a very simple foundation platform of how they work with each presenting new client.
ThEIr PErsoNalIZEd ProcEss:
SIMPLICITY: As financial investment officers, they do the work for their clients as they walk the client through an evolutionary six-step process of development in a wealth plan that will meet individual or company needs.
FOCuS: Results, by not following trends. They provide rational and disciplined approaches that remove the emotional aspect of asset allocation and avoid trend-chasing behavior. They sit on the client’s side of the table to help find the best investment strategy that fits each client’s unique needs and circumstances.
BALANCE: Managing risks, creating exceptional value. These financial advisors believe that investors should be compensated for the risk they take in their investment portfolios. They evaluate and manage risk/return through the asset allocation process, utilizing forward-looking assumptions to maximize the return potential at any given level of risk. This ‘risk budgeting’ approach seeks to provide better solutions than the ‘rule of thumb’ method used by most other advisors.
“We also have a wealth of experienced nationwide resources (more than 2,600 offices throughout the United States, Canada, and overseas) available to all our clients across a multitude of financial/investment solutions, including helping bring together investment dollars for clients looking to expand or build a new business,” added Brandvik.
It is for certain Gray, Brandvik, and Slaughter are well-situated within our community to help you with trusted financial solutions for your family or your business. They certainly are partners who merit the title they created for their new partnership: Sagamore Advisors of Raymond James & Associates.

Donate Your Prom Dress
| Janet C. Striebel
Every girl should have the chance to buy an affordable prom dress to wear on one of the most special nights of her life. Though every young lady dreams about her special dress, unfortunately, some girls cannot afford one. YOU can help make someone’s dream become a reality by offering your prom dress.
Simply donate your gently-used prom or formal dress to Fishers Tri Kappa. The members of this reputable organization will clean, mend, and sell the dresses for a nominal price with proceeds going toward next year’s sale preparation and purchasing of new dresses. Although Tri Kappa has been a statewide philanthropic sorority since 1901, the Fishers chapter was established in 1991.
“When we host this event, this is not a fund raiser for us but rather a service project,” says Kim Goss, member of Fishers Tri Kappa Sorority. “We just want to help make beautiful prom dresses more accessible to everyone.” Attending today’s prom can become a costly package as most girls attempt to make sure they look perfect with their dress, hair, nails, and shoes.
6th Annual Fishers Tri Kappa Prom Dress SaleThe 6th Annual Fishers Tri Kappa Prom Dress Sale will take place on March 2, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Delaware Township Government Center located at 9090 131st Street (corner of 131st and Highway 37). Students must show a valid school ID and pay with cash. The dress sizes range from 0 to 18+ and may be any color, style, or length. Some jewelry and accessories will be available. The prices range from $10 to $40. Just imagine. Some girl could discover your “old” dress that will be “new” to her. She will feel as special as you did on prom night!
“Each sale signifies an absolute community outreach,” says Bryn Cieciura, co-chair of the prom dress sale committee. “We want to make sure that as we reach out to these various communities, we can offer a beautiful, large selection of dresses. We would like to stretch out to as many areas across Indy as possible, from Lawrence and Fishers to Pendleton and Anderson.”
Fishers Tri Kappa embraces these core values: Charity, culture, and education. In addition to the prom dress project, Fishers Tri Kappa stays busy organizing many charitable events throughout the year.
Make Her Dream Come True
Fairy Godmothers Working to Make Dreams Come True“If we outfit even one girl, then it’s a success,” says Nancy Reed, co-chair of the prom dress sale committee. Nancy continues, “It gives you such a good feeling to see a girl find her dress. It’s usually someone who works hard. I remember when a girl came in one day and she had just gotten off of work as a waitress. She pulled out all her one dollar bills and started counting them. It was very touching.”
“During the sale we are all like mother hens, helping the girls try on their dresses,” says Cieciura. “We are running around ‘oohing’ and ‘ahhing’ over all the girls. We have a lot of fun helping them.”
How Do I Donate My Dress?If you would like to donate your prom dress to this most worthy cause, please send a message to [email protected] and send to the attention of either Bryn Cieciura or Nancy Reed. Tax deduction forms are available for your donation.
Reed reminds us, “A lot of us have prom dresses hanging in our closets, collecting dust, with no purpose. Yet every girl should have the opportunity to feel perfect. Everyone deserves this moment and should have this chance.”
Janet Striebel serves as a freelance writer. She and her husband Doug have three children, Ryan, Jessica, and Justin. After writing for atGeist.com for
over six years now, she claims that the best part is meeting all of the interesting people in our community.

invest in your nestMaking a Grand Entrance| Pat Carlini
Everyone enjoys making a grand entrance; and when your front door is warm and inviting, it just screams “welcome” to your guests! So if you notice your front door is looking a little weathered, or maybe just in need of an update, it may be time to Invest in Your Nest and help your front door say “come on in” once again.
Jim and Laura Murphy have been updating their Carmel home since they moved in a few years ago. With the inside nearly done, they started looking at the home’s exterior and thought the front doors could use a little update as well. “They are nice solid wood front doors; but they are heavy, and they block out the light for the foyer inside,” says Lisa. “I wanted to let some light in and give the doors a new look.”
The couple shopped around and found “One Hour Door Decorative Glass and Windows” which specializes in front-door makeovers. “We learned that we could get a whole new look to our entryway with One Hour Door at a fraction of the cost of buying new doors,” says Lisa.
The Murphys met with One Hour Door owner Tim Quigley, and together they came up with a new look for the front door. “Pretty much any design you want can be made into a glass insert,” says Tim.
The newly-designed decorative glass inserts were ordered. When they arrived, One Hour Door was ready to tackle the project. Working from their truck in the Murphys’ driveway, One Hour Door removed the wood doors, cut out the center of the doors and put in the new glass inserts. “You have a whole new look to your entryway in very little time," says Tim, “and there’s no mess for the homeowner to clean up!”
The result is a beautiful new entryway to the Murphy home for a cost of around $2,500.

i worked at a medium-sized company for a while where the managers had offices and the worker bees had cubicles. i, of course, was a cubicle dweller, which wasn’t ideal, but i made the best of it. so i only had half walls that anyone taller than 5’ 5” could see over and no door. i still made it my own by decorating my diminutive walls with photographs of friends and funnies i’d clipped from the paper and displaying pottery in hues of peach on my metal bracket shelves.
my co-workers and i had fun — at least the worker bees did. we buzzed by each other’s cubicles on a regular basis for impromptu pow-wows and the rare gripe session. we’d giggle over the latest office gossip (not that any of us were slaves to fashion, but rodger had worn the same blazer to work for 37 days and counting) until our boss’s disembodied voice told us to “cut the chatter,” then we’d wing back to our respective corners. we worked hard, though, every one of us.
occasionally, i’d find myself behind the 8 ball and in the office on a saturday trying to finish up a particularly cantankerous project. i didn’t really mind. the lights were usually out on my floor, and i was the only soul there. i kind of enjoyed working without the fluorescent lights painting such a harsh glow on everything. i’d set myself up a little picnic, humming a happy tune between mouthfuls of carrot sticks and potato chips or hummus and pita bread and peanut butter cookies as my fingers tapped lightly on the computer keyboard.
But one saturday when i rolled in around 11 a.m., i noticed that the light in my boss’s office was on. sigh. not that i had anything against my boss. nothing serious, anyway (although he did have a laugh reminiscent of the cartoon character snagglepuss, which he frequently used at others’ expense), but his presence did kind of mess with my feeling of Zen.
so what’s a girl to do when the feeling of fun on the job sails out the window at the end of the hall? well, if you absolutely love your job and wouldn’t want to change anything about it, ever, you are welcome to follow my lead; but if you harbor ideas of being promoted one day, i wouldn’t suggest doing what i did.
my action was a moment of weakness to be sure, one of those times when the angel and the devil are whispering in opposite ears — and the angel clearly lost. Because when my boss walked out of his office into the dark, i knew he didn’t realize i was there. when he turned down the hall into which my cubicle opened on his way to the bathroom, i gave a silent whoop of triumph. and when his big toe broke the plane in front of my space, i did the only thing a woman possessed with the spirit of mischief could. i let out an exuberant “Boo!” and my boss screamed like a girl.
i might have cracked a little smile. my boss looked positively apoplectic. i could suddenly envision a call to 9-1-1 and trying to offer an explanation. “i think i startled him, and then he just sort of keeled over.”
as he walked away, i got the distinct impression he was envisioning his own (anonymous with a fake accent) call to 9-1-1. “i don’t know what happened, but it appears she has been strangled.”
my boss didn’t walk by my cubicle on his way back from the bathroom, and i kept a low profile for the rest of the afternoon. i was even able to stifle the repeated impulse to giggle over the mental replay of my boss’s momentary look of sheer terror.
i was absolutely wrong to do it, of course. and in the end, i really did learn my lesson. some things don’t bear repeating, so i never go in to the office on the weekend anymore.

Kids today live in a technical world of instant communication. The use of computers has changed the playing field in providing educational elements so necessary to a child’s learning process.
Use of computers and Internet access in a classroom has skyrocketed in the last decade. Students who have access to these tools can explore hundreds of skill-building programs, lessons on the Internet, and a variety of other possibilities for furthering their education. It is important to know how computers have impacted our schools and education so far, and to recognize the full purpose of computers within the classroom. Research documents that kids who have access to working on computers in a classroom setting improve in a wide range of social skills, including the ability to cooperate and learning to solve problems within a group setting. Working with a computer may also encourage students to explore their own ideas, as well as share their ideas with the class, allowing the students to interact as they work together and to communicate effectively while creating strategies for completing tasks. There’s no question that today’s students have to learn how to effectively use a computer and to navigate the Internet. This is best begun in the early years of education to acclimate the student to performing online school tasks, because they will need to be familiar with this process in many colleges and universities.
That’s why St. Simon’s 13th annual “Bites for Bytes” fundraiser is so important as it helps support the “Computers on Wheels” (COW) program which provides much-needed computers for classroom use.
“Unlike other public/township schools, St. Simon’s receives no state or federal aid to fund the purchase of
needed computers for its classrooms. As a school, we must raise these funds on our own. Bites for Bytes was conceived to help our students have access to computers in their classroom experience. The school currently has two traditional computer labs, but we need to expand this to hosting computers on wheels that are accessible to students in rooms for whenever they need it. All the funds raised at this fun event go to support the technology needs of our school,” stated Angela Duggan, co-chair of the event.
Principal Donavan Yarnall added, “We don’t want to say that every child should have a computer, but we want to give our students the best flexible technology available. I think we all know that the best tool in the classroom is a good teacher. So if we can add to that element the support of available computers to help their students achieve, then that is the best of all worlds for St. Simon students.”
“We so appreciate all the support we received from our dedicated PFO and the efforts of Amy Hruskoi who is the co-chair of the event which includes the silent auction portion of Bites for Bytes and all the local community food vendors including: Bella Vita, Jonah’s Market, Sundae’s Ice Cream, The Grill, Michael’s Southshore, Apezza, Ribs Express, Casler’s Kitchen, and Chef Suzanne Catering who so generously provide the wonderful Bites for the evening,” adds Laura Mates, assistant principal at St. Simon’s.
It is also exciting to know that this year’s, Bites for Bytes will include a new food vendor, Chick-fil-A! Jeff Mosley, Owner/Operator of Chick-fil-A at the Crossing and Castleton Square Mall, and a long-time supporter of St. Simon’s, perhaps sums up the total efforts for this wonderful fund raiser when he remarked, “Bites for Bytes at St. Simon’s is hosting Faith, Fellowship, and Great Food that serves an important benefit for the kids at St. Simon!”

Sue Layton is an aggressive go-getter who decided that her memory skills needed sharpening to stay a step ahead in her broadcast sales job. “My husband and
I both have horrible memories,” declared Layton. This working mom appreciated the value of gaining competitive advantage whenever possible. Such were the circumstances that brought Layton to LearningRx, a professional “brain training” center located at 9767 Fall Creek Road, for a memory evaluation. However, an unexpected twist would force a dramatic shift in Layton’s intended focus – and in short order.
Tagging along that day was her then eight-year-old son, Ty, whose memory was also evaluated. The results were troubling. “We found out our son had memory issues, having apparently inherited his Mom and Dad’s poor memory,” shared Layton, who promptly signed up Ty for a personally customized 12-week memory development program at LearningRx.
Ty’s story is a familiar one to Lynne McCauley, LearningRx’s executive director. “Ty was doing well at school but didn’t qualify for the gifted and talented reading class in third grade because of his reading comprehension score. Once he was tested by us, it became clear that he didn’t have comprehension problems, he had short-term memory problems,” McCauley explained. “He understood the material but couldn’t remember it long enough to answer the questions correctly. While his school reading scores were in the ‘normal’ range, it prevented him from making it into the gifted and talented reading program.”
Layton described Ty as “fired up” about his three-times-a-week, 90-minute sessions with a cognitive skills trainer. His exercises included this daunting challenge: memorize and then recite, in two minutes or less, the names of all the American presidents – forwards and backwards – while being subjected to audible and visual distractions. Layton noted that the training was non-judgmental and replete with positive reinforcement. “Ty is a quiet kid who was gaining confidence, and we could see his progress,” she remembered. “He left those sessions feeling like a champion. Who doesn’t want to feel like that?”
McCauley explained the larger implications for Ty and kids like him. “This last school year was the first that all third graders must pass the I-Read test to move to fourth grade. If kids don’t pass the test, they get held back. This is a big deal because it’s crucial that kids master fundamental reading skills to be able to learn effectively at higher levels. Our reading scores in Indiana are dismal because of the way schools teach reading.” Consider this: 55-60% of fourth
graders in Indiana don’t read at a proficient (mastery level), a number that climbs to about 64-66% in 8th grade.
When Ty took the I-Read test at the end of third grade, he was one of only six kids in his school who had a perfect score on the test. McCauley explained that Ty’s fundamental reading skills were always strong, but his memory wasn’t. “If they hadn’t addressed this, he would have gone on to have more and more problems over the years because of his memory issues,” she said. Today, Ty is in an academically-advanced class at his elementary school. “He was thrilled he could go into advanced classes because many of his friends were there. It would have been devastating if he’d been put in another class without them,” Layton said.
The cost of Ty’s program was about equal to a very nice family vacation to Disneyworld – a short-term financial sacrifice that Layton believes was well worth it because of the long-term benefits. “I wanted to make sure my kid had every confidence in the classroom and socially, before starting to make bad choices,” said Layton. McCauley is unambiguous about the importance of early intervention. “Learning problems left unchecked become bigger problems – it’s not going to go away. Why hesitate about something that will affect your child the rest of his or her life?”
Layton offered great praise for McCauley’s management style, and LearningRx’s commitment to excellence. “Lynne is spot on with her experience, and demands only the best. The skills trainers are great – we just loved the staff. And, most impressive is Lynne’s continuing support. She still stays in touch.”
If parents have suspicions, the Laytons strongly encourage scheduling the child for an assessment to determine what his or her tool set is like, and what might be missing. “Then you’ll know if your child is prepared for the future.”
Lynne McCauley, executive director of LearningRx, oversees a short-term memory exercise with Ty Layton during one of his 90-minutes one-on-one sessions.

In February, atFishers.com will launch the Fishers Community Newsletter. The publisher of this community magazine represents a woman of interesting pizazz as she
brainstorms new ideas for her business venture. Meet Laurie Quinn, stay-at-home mom and mastermind behind this exciting new publication.
Although Laurie is a self-motivated woman, she finds strength and reliance in her husband, Matt Quinn. She admits that together they have a support system in the way they raise their two children and live their lives together in Fishers.
How Did They Meet?Laurie used to be a bartender in Cincinnati when one day Matt came in for a drink with his friends. When he first met her he tried to hit on her, but she wasn’t interested because she wasn’t sure about dating the clientele. A week later, when Matt came into see her, he asked her out once again. This time she couldn’t resist his charm. Hence, they’ve been together ever since.
After getting married, Laurie became a licensed nursing home administrator. She served as an activities director for a nursing home even before bartending. Essentially, she has always had a nurturing desire to help others.
“I felt I was helping someone’s grandma, like I was paying it forward,” she says. Every Monday, she would take her dog, Mika, to visit the residents of the nursing home. Everybody loved Mika. Laurie still recalls, “The residents suffering from dementia would always ask me, ‘Where’s your brown dog?’ They never seemed to remember me or my name but they never could forget Mika.” Laurie and Matt found Mika, a mutt, at a home that couldn’t take care of her.
Making Fishers Their New HomeMatt used to manage sports complexes in Cincinnati. With the help of a former boss and close friend, he was introduced to the owners of a sports facility here in Indy, formerly called Sports of All Sorts. He became the general manager, and together he and Laurie began a new life in Fishers. In his new position, Matt helped to transform this ordinary sports place to include family entertainment and so much more, in what is now known as Incrediplex, the largest indoor sports facility in Indiana with games, sports, fitness, food, and fun for families, athletes, teams, and businesses (www.incredi-plex.com). Matt enjoys giving back to the community when he can. Recently, he started volunteering with the Geist Half Marathon (www.geisthalf.com).
Laurie and Matt share a special family. Together, they have a 6-year-old daughter, Kennedy, who attends Fall Creek Elementary and a 2-year-old son, Kai, who attends preschool at New Hope Presbyterian. Yes, Laurie and Matt still have their dog, Mika, who is now 10 years old.
“Mika is very much a part of our family,” says Laurie. “She sleeps with the kids and watches over them when they are sick.” Laurie remembers how Mika knew she was pregnant before anyone else! “When Matt and I would watch TV,

Mika would intentionally scoot in between us and snarl at Matt and put her feet on my lap. After about six weeks of this behavior, we learned that I was pregnant. Somehow she knew. She behaved this way when I was pregnant with both kids.”
Mini-Incrediplex within the NeighborhoodLaurie and Matt seemed to be drawn to a sense of community. Their backyard is a gathering spot for many neighbors including kids and adults. In the back of their home, there is a poured patio with a fire pit that is called the “Adult Circle.” The adults mingle and enjoy adult beverages. Then, there is a section of concrete which is designated for the kids. This is called the “Bike Circle,” where kids can ride their bikes and not go near the street. Laurie laughs as she admits, “We have neighbors who will drop off their favorite beer on our front doorstep so that we will keep it chilled for them for the next time they come over.”
Time for Mom to Spread Her Wings and FlyLaurie was a stay-at-home mom for seven years. She also was on bed rest during both pregnancies. She is ready to begin cultivating connections within the community.
“I want to help grow businesses. I also would like to help promote charities and other organizations. I hope to bring a mom’s perspective to the magazine.” So far, Laurie has enjoyed the convenience of being with her kids while she talks business with clients. She says, “So far, it’s been great. I can be curled up snuggling with Kai during quiet time and still be using my phone to communicate at the same time.”
