Inaugural Carmel Gala raises $60,000 for Carmel Youth Assistance ProgramThe REPORTER

Thanks to generous sponsors and community support, the inaugural Carm-el Gala, Design Bright Futures, was a big success for the Carmel Youth Assistance Program (CYAP), which will receive $60,000 in donations from the sold-out event held on May 6 at the Ritz Charles.

The funds will go directly to CYAP, an organization that provides support services for Carmel's at-risk youth and families. Nearly 350 attendees raised the $60,000 through sponsorships, a silent auction and a live donation request on behalf of a new initiative, the first ever Carmel Summer Lunch Program.

"We want to thank everyone who came to the event or who has otherwise supported this important effort in our community," said Mayor Jim Brainard, who served as the Honorary Chair of the event. "We have done a lot in Carmel to help the next generation thrive in edu-cation, the arts, health and well-being. We can do more and we must continue to reach out to children who are at risk of falling through the cracks of society. This is why we started the Carmel Youth Assistance Program."

Plans are under way for next year's Carmel Gala, set for April 2018. Stay tuned for a future announcement with more details.

Special thanks also goes to CBS4 Indy news anchor and Carmel resident, Debby Knox, who served as the emcee for the Gala, which featured an elegant dinner and After Party with live enter-tainment, a photo booth and interactive games like jumbo Jenga and puzzle building.

4 NewsFlashing speed limit signs coming to Fishers school zonesBy LARRY LANNAN www.LarryInFishers.com

Motorists driving in school zones around Fishers will have flashing speed limit signs, but it won’t happen anytime soon. The Board of Public Works and Safety Monday

approved a Local Public Agency contract with the Indiana Department of Transporta-tion, with the state providing 90 percent of the funding for the signs, and Fishers pick-ing up the remaining 10 percent.

City Director of Engineering Jeff Hill told board members he anticipates bids to

be accepted in early 2018, with the signs installed in 2019 or 2020. The signs will be programmed to flash only when school speed limits are in place, generally while school is in session.

Hill said his department is looking at standardizing the school speed limits around

the city.During the Monday session, the board

also approved “Plant a Tree” grant recipi-ents, and passed a field use agreement be-tween City of Fishers and Fishers Soccer Inc. (also known as Indy Premier Soccer Club).

DEMOCRATSfrom Page 1

favorable reviews on job performance.Weingarten's job would seem over-

whelming. So, what's he going to do?He is going get more aggressive in

speaking out on issues. He says, for example, that local officials are orga-nizing Tax Increment Financing Dis-tricts (TIFs) when they are not needed. He says he will question such things as Fishers' payment of huge fees for a politically connected attorney to repre-sent the city in Washington.

But, nuts and bolts are important too, Weingarten realizes. He claims to have 70 percent of the precinct com-mitteemen jobs filled, and is encour-aging party auxiliary groups such as a women's Democratic organization and high school Democratic clubs. In early June there will be a 'candidates school' for persons interested in running for office next year.

The new party chairman sees a fu-ture for the county party which has

been in the minority since the Civil War. He says more Democrats or folks that can be persuaded to vote for the party candidates, are moving into the county.

While Weingarten is officially re-tired, he operates a small business and is heavily involved with Boy Scouts as well as working on his political agenda. His task of building a party is not going to be easy. Republicans are aware of his plans and of the demographics that show more Democrats moving in. But, there are also a lot of new Republicans who have been leaving Indianapolis for years.

So, don't look for a Democratic sweep in the near future, but hints of a two-party system may be on the way; not a bad thing for either party because with no competition the only existing party can become lax, and that's no good and no fun in our political sys-tem.

6 NewsChecklist: 5 camping essentials for a safe, enjoyable adventureStatePoint

More than 30 million Americans camp in tents yearly, according to the Outdoor Foundation. As with any out-door adventure, having the necessary equipment is crucial.

Whether you’re hiking through back-country or headed to an established campsite, this checklist will help you prepare for your expedition.

1. NavigationApproximately 9 million campers

backpack to outdoor destinations, mak-ing navigation a top safety necessity. Re-member that camping often means leav-ing behind cell coverage, Internet access or a GPS signal, making such low-tech gear as a compass and map mandatory. Other potential tools include a topo-graphic map combined with an altimeter to help gauge your journey’s terrain and altitude.

2. InsulationKnowing climate and weather condi-

tions is vital. According to Backpacker.com, clothing is just as important as a tent or sleeping bag to stay insulated. Outer-wear should repel rain and snow, but also

breathe so you don’t get wet from perspi-ration. Your base layer should be made of moisture-wicking fabric — not cotton to prevent chafing. Consider that day and night temperatures can differ greatly, so layer clothing, and choose materials and thicknesses appropriate for your destina-tion — and don’t forget a hat and extra socks.

Bring along T-Rex Clear Repair Tape to mend holes or tears in tents or cloth-ing. It sticks to both wet and dry surfaces, ensuring an easy and instant fix to keep gear insulated in any weather condition.

3. IlluminationCampers should always bring enough

illumination to be able to safely see and move after sundown, especially in case you get delayed, lost or separated from the group. While flashlights are obvious choices, headlamps are popular, as they allow for hands-free operation, and are typically small and lightweight. Another feature to consider is a strobe lighting mode for emergency situations.

Extra batteries are essential as battery lighting was the most popular purchase among adult campers in 2014, according

to the Outdoor Foundation. Available in single-use or rechargeable models, ide-ally the batteries should offer a balance of long duration, high performance and environmental friendliness.

4. Emergency/First Aid KitAccidents happen to even the most

experienced and best prepared campers. Your kit can prove invaluable if you, or another member of your group, are in a first-aid situation, need gear repaired or are under other tense conditions.

SectionHiker.com proposes supplies such as a pre-assembled first-aid kit, a multi-tool, knife, scissors, screwdriver and safety pins. You can then add other items based on preference and experi-ence. A useful addition is a high-quality tape, like T-Rex Tape, as it can be used to repair hiking poles, patch sleeping bags, make a rope, temporarily stabilize an injury or broken boot, and more. T-Rex Clear Repair Tape can even be used to fix cracked GPS or phone screens and flashlights.

5. Hydration and NutritionFood is an enjoyable part of camping,

but deciding what to bring will depend on whether you’re backpacking miles to your site or camping near your car, as well as how many days you’ll be gone. If you’re trekking far, be prepared with lightweight and nourishing options.

Water is essential but heavy, so check the area for potential natural sources. “Mountaineering” suggests carrying a collapsible water reservoir and puri-fication tablets to ensure water safety. Freeze-dried meals are popular selec-tions, however, no-cook meals with long shelf lives are better in arid regions. Oth-er possibilities include energy bars, nuts, dried fruits or jerky. Never leave out animal-attracting leftovers, as that could attract unwanted intruders.

“Essentials” are called so for a rea-son. Don’t be caught camping without proper supplies. With these necessities, it will be easy to prepare for and enjoy your next adventure in the great outdoors.

"Thirteen hits, we hit the ball awfulwell," said HSE coach David Cook. "We hitit hard and did a lot of damage there. And Iliked how we scored one in the top of thefirst, and you play with the lead all gamelong."

Fishers steadily pulled away from thePanthers, scoring one in the first inningwhen Kirstie Brooks' fielder's choice sentBrooke Benson home, this after Benson hita triple to get on base. The Tigers then addedtwo runs each in the third, fourth, sixth andseventh innings.

"I was happy with the energy we had,"said Fishers coach Aaron Woosley. "I washappy with how we came out. We didn'tcome out expecting to just walk all overthem." Instead, the coach said the Tigerscame out playing tough, hard and made theplays they needed to make.

Benson hit a double to start the thirdinning, and was sent home immediatelywhen Alyssa Chavez socked a double. KristiGordon hit a two-RBI single in the sixthinning, that followed an RBI single in thefourth inning. Emma Wellington also hit adouble.
