The Riverside In-termediate School community is prepar-ing the second phase of an accessible play-ground for upper ele-mentary students, and that effort has been bolstered by a private

sector donation.The Walmart Community Grant pro-

gram has awarded $2,500 for this play-ground project. The first phase was completed in 2017 by the Riverside Inter-mediate PTO.

“We want all students to feel included in their school community,” said Riverside Intermediate School Assistant Principal Brian Behrman. “The goal of this project is to ensure that students of all abilities have play options. The grant from the Walmart Community Grant program will help us ac-complish that.”

Plans for the next phase include a bas-ket swing, percussion stand, sensory table, spinner bowls and a rope climbing dome. The equipment was selected with input from the school’s occupational therapist to ensure that it is accessible and appropriate for students of all abilities.

The school district’s only programs for students this age with serious medical con-ditions and non-verbal autism are housed at Riverside Intermediate School, so there is a larger than usual population with special needs.

Local Walmart manager Tim Clark rec-

ommended his company fund this specific project.

“Through the Walmart Community Grant program, the team at your Fishers Walmart Neighborhood Market is able to give back to our local communities,” said Clark. “It’s especially rewarding when we

can help kids in need and help drive new and exciting things for them.”

The Riverside Intermediate School PTO hopes to begin construction of the playground addition this spring. If you would like to donate money to complete this project, click here.

Avoid the “freak out and panic” methodSenior Abby Hanson named

Gold Key winner for Indiana

Walmart contributes $2,500 toward Riverside school playground project

Spread the love with Nickel Plate Arts next month

I had the pleasure of meeting with the Indi-ana Parkinson Founda-tion (IPF) board chair and executive director last month to discuss working with them on grants. If you’re not familiar with IPF, you probably know about their exercise program that helps Parkinson’s patients and their fam-ilies – The CLIMB.

Board Chair Bryon Foley and Executive Director Kim Williams impressed me right off the bat with their knowledge and dedi-cation to helping people affected by this disease. During our conversation, Bryon mentioned a business called Harmony Relo-cation Services.

Harmony is based out of Brownsburg. They help seniors with the process of mov-ing from their home to assisted living or another location from start to finish. Harmo-ny’s website states they “plan, purge, pack, and place.”

After I heard Bryon talk about how this service helped him and his family, I sighed wistfully.

“Wow, that sounds so much better than the ‘freak out and panic’ method we used with my mom,” I said.

While we all had a good chuckle, the conversation brought back the rather awful memories of suddenly moving my mother to Noblesville two years ago from South Bend. If someone were to ask me my number one tip for transitioning an elderly person from their home to assisted living, I would tell them “DON’T WAIT!”

Mom’s doctor flat out told me almost four years ago to start thinking of moving my mother. But having this conversation with an elderly parent is challenging for so many reasons. It’s hard for anyone of any age to give up the home they’ve lived in for decades.

I did feel some hope one time when my mother asked me to drive by a small condo-minium that was for sale across town. I liter-ally told my siblings “I think Mom’s finally going to downsize!” But it didn’t happen.

When Mom first started struggling with paying bills and taking care of her house, we should have all had a discussion with her in order to create a transition plan, one where we could take our time and figure out the best solution for Mom. But we were all busy with work and our own families.

The next thing we knew, Mom had fall-en again and I found myself sitting in her doctor’s office the day after Thanksgiving hearing the words, “You cannot live by your-self any longer. You need to be in assisted living.” That was one of the hardest days of my life.

My siblings and I had a teleconference with Mom that afternoon and decided mov-ing her down to Noblesville to be closer to us would be the best. My brother Mark and his wife Janie used A Place for Mom to narrow down the various choices (another wonder-ful service!) and we all visited two of them the following Monday.

Janie had the challenging task that week

The REPORTERFor couples looking for a creative

Valentine’s date, Nickel Plate Arts will provide Valentine’s Date Nights on three different evenings in February. From 6 to 9 p.m. on Feb. 14, 15, and 16, the pop-ular art-infused activities for couples is back for another year and will go way beyond candy hearts and red roses.

Six separate Valentine’s art stations at Nickel Plate Arts’ downtown No-

blesville campus will engage couples in a variety of romantically-themed art stations. Couples can choose to partici-pate in one or all six stations. The event will also feature live music and offer wine and beer from local breweries and wineries.

Nickel Plate Arts’ Executive Director Ailithir McGill loves using the arts to bring people together.

“We guarantee success at each of our

art stations because the main goal is to have fun and get to know your date a lit-tle better,” said McGill. “No matter how long you've been together, I am certain that you'll learn something new about your Valentine as you create art togeth-er.

To help Hamilton County families affected by domestic violence and sexual abuse, you can donate the

following items:• Art supplies (for children to journal and express their emotions)• Bottled water (8 oz. bottles, preferably)• Individually packaged snacks• Gas cards (many women have no access to funds after fleeing their abuser)

I was born and raised right here in Noblesville. I grew up in a home without domestic violence or assault - it wasn’t something I saw, or even heard about.

But when I was introduced to Prevail of Central Indiana, I was shocked by the number of individuals who are affected by domestic violence. In 2018 alone, Prevail helped more than 4,000 clients in Hamilton County. (Nearly 80 percent of clients are women and children.)

Prevail is strictly confidential, and since their core values include integrity and respect, they provide their services at no charge. Domestic violence and abuse are hard topics to discuss, so you don’t often hear about them. But at Tom Wood Volkswagen in Noblesville, we’re breaking the taboo and raising awareness for Prevail, an organization that helps families in Hamilton County.

McGill stressed that no creative or artistic skills are required for this event.

Nickel Plate Arts will offer a variety of other opportunities for people to engage in Valentine’s Day-related activities. On Saturday, Feb. 9, families can come to Nickel Plate for Family Valentine’s Day Drop-in Art Projects. Heartwarming art stations will allow families to cre-ate art together to give as gifts or keep as mementos of Valentine’s Day 2019.

Throughout the month of February, Nickel Plate

Arts’ Judge Stone House gallery will feature an ex-hibit entitled “In the Name of Love,” which will dis-play artwork from artists in the Nickel Plate Arts region that explores the sentiments of affection, devotion and friendship, to name a few. “In the Name of Love” opens during Nickel Plate’s First Friday event from 6 to 9 p.m. on Friday, Feb. 1.

of working with Mom to pack the necessary belong-ings and furniture – while she was sick at times, I might add – and by that Sat-urday our family converged upon Mom’s house with a moving van and loaded everything up.

While everything thank-fully worked out and Mom’s in a good facility now, I wished we would have been firm with her and started the discussion much earlier. We

could have taken two months or more for her move, vs. two weeks, and maybe even used something like Harmo-ny to make it all easier.

If you have an elderly relative, don’t be afraid to have open and honest dis-cussions with them about a future move. Avoid the “freak out and panic” meth-od and everyone will have a smoother – and happier – transition for your relative’s next stage of life.

Community Foundation of Boone County supports

HAND expansion with grantThe REPORTER

N o b l e s v i l l e - b a s e d HAND Inc. has been awarded a $5,000 grant to support expansion of the nonprofit’s affordable hous-ing services into neighbor-ing Boone County.

This grant was made possible by the Commu-nity Foundation of Boone County’s Community Im-pact Fund. Among oth-er things, it will help pay to equip a community room at HAND’s Hick-ory Commons develop-ment, giving low-income residents access to on-site services such as finan-cial literacy and nutrition education classes.

HAND already is in-vesting more than $2 mil-lion to acquire and renovate the 17 duplexes that com-prise Hickory Commons, which will provide 28 af-fordable apartments for residents earning no more than 60 percent of area me-dian income; five units will have market-rate rents.

Hickory Commons is HAND’s first affordable rental community out-side of Hamilton County. Founded in 2003 as Ham-ilton County Area Neigh-borhood Development Inc.,

HAND has seven proper-ties with a total of 106 units in its home county.

According to American Community Survey five-year estimates, about 20 percent of Boone County

homeowners and 44 per-cent of renters are consid-ered cost burdened, spend-ing more than 30 percent of their household income on housing.

HAND’s mission is to

be a leader in promoting prosperity and diversity in its communities by provid-ing quality housing oppor-tunities for low- and mod-erate-income individuals and families.

Hill warns Hoosiers to be skeptical of solicitors

claiming affiliationwith local schools

The REPORTERIndiana Attorney Gen-

eral Curtis Hill is warning Hoosiers to exercise cau-tion before en-tering into finan-cial transactions with solicitors claiming affilia-tions with local schools. In recent years, the Office of the Attorney General has re-ceived multiple complaints about scams involving fraudulent sales of supposed spon-sorships benefiting school programs or sports teams.

On Wednesday, the Of-fice of the Attorney Gen-eral filed a civil action in Delaware County against Boost Sports Integrative Media LLC – which does business under the name High School Sports Ad-vertising and Sports Me-dia Advertising. Claiming charitable purposes, this company entered into con-sumer transactions with Indiana businesses under the guise of an affiliation or partnership with lo-cal school corporations – namely, Yorktown High School and Muncie Cen-tral High School.

Boost Sports Integra-tive Media LLC, however, failed to establish sponsor-ship, approval or affiliation with the schools before so-liciting the targeted busi-nesses. Further, it failed to deliver the products it promised, and it remitted

no funds to the schools.The Attorney General

alleges that this entity’s actions are unfair, abusive

and deceptive – and that they violate the Indi-ana Deceptive Consumer Sales Act. The Attor-ney General is seeking restitu-tion for defraud-ed businesses as well as civil penalties and

costs, along with an order that the defendant stop any fraudulent activity.

In 2017, the Office of the Attorney General re-ceived similar complaints about a company purport-ing to be affiliated with Noblesville High School.

Businesses and individ-uals should be suspicious of anyone calling or email-ing to seek sponsor partner-ships for stadium banners, posters, T-shirts and other items. Before contracting with such companies, busi-nesses should first check with schools to confirm the relationship with the orga-nization seeking money.

Anyone who believes they have encountered an attempted scam is encour-aged to file a consumer complaint with the Office of the Attorney General at indianaconsumer.com or by calling 1-800-382-5516.

hillWhite River Vision Plan entering final phase, consultants to present design ideasThe REPORTER

The final phase of com-munity meetings launches Tuesday, Jan. 29 for The White River Vision Plan, a community-driven effort led by the City of Indianapolis, Visit Indy, and Hamilton County Tourism, Inc. to en-hance 58 miles of the White River in Indianapolis and Hamilton County.

Public meetings during the “Action” phase of the White River Vision Plan will present design ideas and recommendations while gathering feedback from the public. Participants will help prioritize the ideas and fo-cus areas that could include destinations, recreational op-portunities and accessibility opportunities. New destina-tions and recreational assets will focus on areas with eco-logical, historical, cultural, significance and important neighborhood adjacencies.

The draft and final plan, de-livered in spring 2019 to stakeholders and communi-ty organizations, will incor-porate feedback from these meetings in addition to a comprehensive, action-ori-ented plan for the next 30 years.

Organizers say commu-nity participation is the most important part of the White River Vision Plan. As a nex-us to connect Central Indiana communities together like never before, this is the first time that the community will see the big ideas and recom-mendations mapped out for the final plan.

While this is the last general public meeting be-fore the plan is finalized, the opportunity to provide feed-back doesn't end here. On the WRVP website, the team will provide ongoing calendar updates about community input events. If residents ha-

ven’t already done so, they can check out the interactive map and share thoughts and ideas about opportuni-ties for the river. The WRVP team encourages the community to fol-low along on social media or tune into their local news for more ways to provide feedback on the third phase of the plan and the draft and final plan documents.

they need to support such growth. We must work with the local community and law enforcement to pro-mote safe neighborhoods and reduce things like pack-age theft and vandalism. We must act responsibly with tax dollars we are giv-en while making sure that Noblesville continues to be a great place to live and to work.

TODAY’S BIBLE READINGBut so much the more went there a fame abroad of him: and great multitudes came together to hear, and to be healed by him of their infirmities. And he withdrew himself into the wilderness, and prayed. And it came to pass on a certain day, as he was teaching, that there were Pharisees and doctors of the law sitting by, which were come out of every town of Galilee, and Judaea, and Jerusalem: and the power of the Lord was present to heal them. And, behold, men brought in a bed a man which was taken with a palsy: and they sought means to bring him in, and to lay him before him. And when they could not find by what way they might bring him in because of the multitude, they went upon the housetop, and let him down through the tiling with his couch into the midst before Jesus. And when he saw their faith, he said unto him, Man, thy sins are forgiven thee.

Luke 5:15-20 (KJV)
