Twelve vendors will
sell unique items along
with merchandise such
as Pampered Chef,
Scentsy candles and
Michi purses and accessories at the third
annual Fall Fun Fest
2013, Oct. 19, 10 a.m.
– 3 p.m. at Wheatley’s,
8902 Southeastern Ave.
Sponsored by Purseptions, owner Melinda
Reynolds
encourages
community members to attend, despite rough
road conditions surrounding the location.

Fall Fun Fest 2013 offers unique items for sale for
its third year, despite Wanamaker construction
“We usually have at least 60 percent of the
vendors returning annually, so people look
forward to picking up their pampered chef
or Scentsy candles because they know now
that in the spring and
fall they can do this,”
Reynolds said. “They
know it’s coming in Wanamaker. I’m just looking forward to having
fun, selling jewelry and
handbags.”
The
construction
on Southeastern Avenue has taken up half
of the road, on Purseptions’ side. The festival at Wheatley’s is caddy
corner, but there is parking in the rear of the
shop, with additional parking down the road.
Purseptions sponsors the vendor fair twice
a year, once in the spring and in the fall. Reynolds said she enjoys spending the extra time
with customers and spreading some jewelry
out for sale. Each of the 12 vendors has donated door prizes to fill a large decorative box,
usually a $150 value. Attendant will receive a
door prize ticket upon entering the festival,
and another ticket when they buy items with
each vendor. A breakfast will be served until 11 a.m., so Reynolds encourages people to
come in to eat, and stay to shop.
“Shopping on Saturdays, especially when
it’s getting near Christmas, it’s just fun,” Reynolds said. “You can go through and see different types of items to start your Christmas
shopping instead of going to a huge department store you see unique items in this little
vendor fair.”

Recently seniors at Greenwood Community High School had 50 minutes to solve a murder mystery through the use of literary elements and clues made by English teacher Ms.
Alicia Tersptra. Throughout September, the
students read and analyzed the Shakespeare
play Macbeth. The play begins with a trio of
witches who deceive Macbeth the foretelling
of his future. In order to gain the throne, Macbeth kills off all who stand in his way. After
becoming King of Cumberland, he continues
to murder all those her are suspicious of him.
This knocks off the natural order of things and
pushing his kingdom to chaos. Like all tragic
heroes, Macbeth leads himself to his infinite

COVER STORY
By Nicole Davis
Indiana passed an anti-bullying mandate
for which all schools must have complied with
by Oct. 15. So what will this mean to students
returning to school after their fall breaks?
Well, not too much.
“Our school system was already approaching it,” said Dr. Tom Keely, assistant superintendent for Beech Grove City Schools. “It was
already pretty much engrained, but it really
just helped us define the steps. Sometimes
legislation really just highlights and coordinates our efforts. Instead of telling us we have
to do something new, that’s not what the legislation has done here. It clarifies something
we’re already doing. I would think the majority of schools already paid attention to this.”
All Southside schools, including Beech
Grove, Greenwood Community, Franklin
Township, Perry Township, Roncalli, Center Grove and Greenwood have reported that
they have made the changes to become compliant with the legislation. So what’s in the
new mandate and how does it apply to the
schools?
1. Schools must report incidents to the Indiana Department of Education after deter-
mining that “bullying” actually occurred.
Many schools already had a system to report bullying instances. They just needed to
alter that to use the new language introduced
by the new definition of bullying. For example, Greenwood already used a program called
Power School, a student management system
that all grades, attendance, everything is in.
Superintendent Kent DeKoninck said they
were able to work with the program to make
the changes needed to document appropriately.
2. Create a safe school committee in each
school building within a school corporation.
3. Train students from grades 1-12 on bullying prevention no later than Oct. 15.
People in blue shirts have been worn
around most Southside schools, a visual of
students, teachers, administration and the
community standing against bullying. Schools
have hosted numerous activities this year to
educate students on what bullying is, and how
to stand against it.
Beech Grove administration has a binder
filled with anti-bullying resources, including
educational activities each school conducts.
This includes everything from character edu-

cation to Bucket Fillers, where youth at Hornet Park Elementary carries a bucket that
holds good thoughts and feelings. Students
understand they can fill the buckets when they
do and say kind and respectful things. This
gives students a visual message which Laura
Hammack, director of quality learners, said
has worked well. A similar activity is done in
Franklin Township at Adams and South Creek
Elementary, called “filling a student’s bucket.”
Franklin Township Community School
Corporation has for many years implemented
a Positive Behavior Intervention and Supports
(PBIS) system in addition to an intentional
bullying prevention program. PBIS plans include analyzing behavior at each school while
teaching students appropriate behaviors and
recognizing positive behavior that promotes a
safe learning environment.
“As part of the school PBIS plan at Arlington
Elementary, for example, students can earn
STAR tickets,” wrote Superintendent Flora
Reichandater. “STAR tickets are given to students who show positive behavior throughout
the school year. The stars are deposited into
collection bins located throughout the school
building. Each Friday on morning announcements tickets are drawn from those students
who are in the collection bins. Tickets are also
tabulated per student and for every 5 tickets a
student earns they are awarded a STAR token
to place on a chain.”
Reichandater continued, “Annually our
counselors visit each classroom at each school
and conduct specific instruction on bully prevention, expectations for student behavior
and ways to report a bullying incident. It is not
uncommon for a school to host a special convocation designed to bring awareness about
bullying or for counselors to meet with individuals or students in small groups. This year
at FTMS West, the counselors introduced a
new event called Girls’ Night Out. West Middle School counselors Danielle Etter and Calvalyn Day sponsored a Girls’Night Out event
for 6th grade girls and a significant woman
role model in their life.”
4. Schools must have a detailed procedure
to provide a swift response to bullying investigations.
As a way to assist in a faster resolution process, Beech Grove schools will introduce a
tip line when students return from fall break.
Each student will receive a flier with contact
information to be able to provide an anonymous tip through Safe Schools Alert. In this
form of communication, anyone can leave a
legitimate anonymous tip, for which they receive a code number. They can reenter that
code number at any time to see what is being done about their tip, and to communicate
back and forth – all anonymously.
5. Become familiar with the new definition
of bullying.
Bullying is defined as “unwanted, repeated acts or gestures, including verbal or written communications.” The new definition includes electronic communications, even when
conducted outside of school.
“Because on Monday when they come to
school, it’s the school’s problem,” Keely said.
Bullying is not a religious event or certain
gang activity. Just because two people are in
a conflict and get in a fight – that is a single
event and not considered bullying.
6. Provide bullying prevention training to
the school corporation’s employees and

volunteers who have direct, ongoing contact with students.
Keely said holding an all-staff training
meeting was one of his favorite experiences
this year in complying with the legislation.
“It was one of the best opportunities I’ve
had to look at our staff and say even if you’re
not a teacher in front of a classroom, but your
opinion matters, too,” Keely said. “Far too often things happen, say in the case of suicide,
that someone knows that student was depressed.”
What do school administrators think about
the changes?
DeKoninck said anti-bullying has been a
popular conversation in superintendent meetings, making sure they all work together to remain compliant.
“Any more we can’t say it’s just kids being
kids,” DeKoninck said. “Unfortunately we are
in a day and age where bullying has cost people their lives. Most schools are doing many
of these items anyway, it’s just making sure we
are doing all of the documenting and addressing the issue. I applaud that and think any step
they take to prevent that is a good thing.”
Because of the advanced documentation
they have created to be able to report properly
to the IDOE, Hammock said it has helped further the steps they take to prevent something
bad from occurring.
“We don’t dismiss bullying,” Hammack said.
“We know it happens here in this district. This
district does really good at being proactive.
Our response is we’re clearly aware that it’s
out there, and we will do all we can to prevent it. When somebody asks, what do you
do? Now we have something to show them.”

“I do believe there is a
problem with bullying
because in some schools
they will just say, ‘Hey,
quit bullying children,’
and then, like, they may
stop bullying for a short
time period and then
they go back to doing
it. And then there’s also
cyber bullying which is a huge problem. And
also because of that problem, are having low
self-esteem which will not end well when they
get older.”

problem or are we, as a society,
becoming sensitive to the topic?
“I think there is a
bullying problem and
what I see day to day
with my own kids, I think
that children and young
adults are more willing
to step over a line
than they have been
in the past. And there
are many more ways
to reach out to each other than face to face,
which makes it a little bit easier to say cruel
things about people when you don’t have to
look them in the eye. On the counter side of
that, I think in some ways we are over sensitive
since everybody has access to everybody
else’s information—we tend to see a lot more
and not necessarily take everything with a
grain of salt. So I think it’s a two-sided coin. I
think both are very possible.”

Everyone should

We love seeing the efforts people, especially
youth, make to help people in their community. Recently, The Southside Times received
a letter from Caleb Brown, a Boy Scout residing in Bargersville. He is working on his Eagle Scout project, centering on Christmas.
He writes, “In my house Christmas trees are
a big tradition. I love to come down stairs on
Christmas morning and see the presents under the tree. I know that there are families in
Johnson County that don’t have Christmas
trees, so my Eagle project is to make Christmas trees for 150 needy families that the Inter Church Food Pantry of Johnson County serves. I plan to make this a green project
by recycling old tomato cages and Christmas
decorations.”
Caleb is requesting donations of artificial
pine garland, tinsel, ornaments, lights and
money. He needs the donations by Oct. 25 to
prepare for his project and will assemble the
trees on Nov. 15 and 16. E-mail hbrown90@
comcast.net for more information.
What a great initiative! We wish Caleb the
best of luck in his efforts.

Keeping fit and having
fun as we age
FEATURE
For SSTimes by Family Features
Regular physical activity at any age can
help you live longer, feel better and reduce
health problems. But far too many people, including baby boomers, don’t get the exercise
they need. According to the 2012 Participation Report from the Physical Activity Council (PAC), 35 percent of Americans over the
age of 55 are physically inactive. Since regular exercise helps control blood pressure, body
weight, cholesterol and so much more, boomers need to find ways to get their bodies moving so they can live longer, healthier lives.
“Though any amount of exercise is beneficial, ultimately adults should work up to getting at least 30 minutes most days of the week,
as long as they feel comfortable and painfree,” said world-renowned nutritionist Joy
Bauer. “From taking a Zumba class to walking
and stretching, getting regular physical activity helps the joints stay loose, maintains muscle mass, and gets the blood flowing – all of
which make everyday tasks easier.”
The American Council on Exercise recommends older Americans choose exercise programs that include cardiovascular, muscle
conditioning, and flexibility exercises. Lowimpact, non-jarring exercises such as walking and swimming are good options. A key to
sticking with a fitness program is making sure
it’s enjoyable.
A fun new program for older adults is Zumba Gold, a low-impact dance-based workout
designed specifically for boomers and seniors.
Workout routines combine salsa, merengue,
flamenco and cumbia moves with fun music. For those that would prefer to work out in
the comfort of their own home, there is also a
Zumba Gold “Live it Up” DVD collection that
offers 3 discs with workouts, as well as advice
from experts in the fields of nutrition, brain
health, enhancing your well-being and more.
The program was created by 71-year-old
Joy Prouty, a veteran in the fitness industry
and a former Rockette. “From cardio to toning, this collection brings together some of
Zumba’s most popular offerings in a format
enabling older adults to rediscover the energy of their youth,” said Prouty. To learn more
about Zumba Gold, purchase the Zumba
Gold “Live it Up” DVDs and find a class near
you, visit www.zumbagold.com.
Workout Safety Tips
Whenever beginning a new fitness activity
or program, make sure you do it safely.
• Wear comfortable shoes that fit well.
• Stay hydrated with plenty of fluids.
• Listen to your body. If it hurts or it feels like
too much, stop.
You also need to be aware of danger signs
while exercising. Stop the activity and call
your doctor or 911 if you experience pain or
pressure in your chest, arms, neck or jaw; feel
lightheaded, nauseated or weak; become short
of breath; develop pain in your legs, calves or
back; or feel like your heart is beating too fast
or skipping beats.
“It’s important to see your doctor before beginning any workout routine to receive a thorough cardiovascular evaluation,” said Bauer.
“Once you’ve been cleared by your doctor, I
recommend starting out slowly.”
Pick an Activity
that You Will Enjoy
The best way to find a regimen that will
stick is to choose something that you enjoy.
You’ll be more likely to stick with it and reap
all the benefits the physical activity has to offer.
Bauer adds that a program like Zumba Gold
is great because, if you enjoy dancing, it won’t
feel like exercise and it can also be a social
outlet: “Combining physical activity with social time is a total win-win.”

The gift of hearing
FEATURE
For SSTimes by Advanced Hearing
Technologies
The gift of hearing is one of the most precious a person has. What would life be like if
you could no longer enjoy the laughter of your
children or grandchildren, relax with your favorite music or television program, or share
a lively conversation with friends? Why trust
your hearing to a company interested more in
your money and selling you a new set of digital hearing aids than your well-being? With
Advanced Hearing Technologies, our focus is
on your satisfaction in improving your quality of life.
In business for over 20 years, Advanced
Hearing Technologies offers these free hearing evaluations to local residents. “We first
give a full hearing test and ear evaluation and
explain the results in a way anyone can understand,” says founder and president Robert Hutchcraft. “Many times hearing loss is
caused by earwax or a blockage. We will look
in your ear with a video otoscope that allows
you to see what we see in your ear.”
Hutchcraft has built Advanced Hearing
Technologies on legendary customer service,
with competitive pricing and lifetime service
on hearing aid purchases. “Our entire staff
works hard to maintain the highest standards
of customer service,” he adds.
Advanced Hearing Technologies currently
operates 18 stores in four states and continues to offer quality hearing aids and hearing
services to area residents. Some hearing aid
companies outsource technicians, while some
may be entirely comprised of salespeople with
little to no experience in the hearing industry!
At Advanced Hearing Technologies, we are
not salespeople, but hearing specialists devoted to manufacturing the highest quality hearing devices in the country. Our local Hearing
Aid Specialist – Chad Huffman – travels to locations in both the Greenwood and North Indianapolis areas.
What makes Advanced Hearing Technologies unique? Before we even begin to recommend hearing aids, we test your hearing
abilities to determine if you need one at all.
All of our free hearing tests are performed by
trained personnel experienced in the latest
hearing technology and equipment, all at no
cost or obligation to you!
If you would like to take advantage of a free
hearing test from Advanced Hearing Technologies, call one of our friendly hearing representatives to schedule an appointment at

Start planning by
starting the conversation
FEATURE
For SSt by Jen Barnhart, Regional Director of
Marketing, CarDon & Associates, Inc.
It’s not uncommon for a family member to
call one of our communities and ask, “How do
I know when it’s time to move to my parent to
Assisted Living, or for that matter, when it’s
time for Long Term Care?” This is a difficult
question to answer, and more importantly, a
difficult conversation to have with a loved one.
Unfortunately, there no hard fast rules to
follow when answering the “when is it right?”
question. There are some key things to think
about though. A recent AARP study found
that older adults feel more comfortable having this discussion when things are going well
for them. It’s more of a planning for the future
versus a “right now” type of decision.
Start the conversation by ensuring your
loved one that you love and care about them
and that is why you want to start planning for
the future. As well, be sure to include your
loved one in the actual decision making process. No one likes decisions being made about
them or their future without their own input,
and this is no different. Set a few appointments to look at some communities, then
narrow it down to two or three and take your
loved one back to get their input. When you
go to tour with your loved one, have a few residents identified ahead of time that they can
talk to. They can be a great testament to the
benefits of living in a senior community. Or,
even better, take your loved one to an event
the community is hosting.
Talk to friends who have gone through this
process as well. They may have some good tips
for what worked well for them. But remember, everyone’s experience through this process will be different.

Autumn is here and along with those cool,
crisp mornings comes a craving for something
warm and delicious. Enter the Mini Pumpkin Pie Spiced Donut, a sweet morning treat
baked with the quintessential flavor of fall.
“You won’t believe how easy it is to make
these donuts at home,” said Mary Beth Harrington of the McCormick Kitchens. “They’re
perfect to mix together with your kids – no
trip to the bakery required.”
For the final touch, dip the donuts in a fallinspired glaze. Flavors like vanilla, mocha or
maple complement the pumpkin spice in the
donut – the ultimate autumn indulgence.
For more recipe ideas to try this fall, visit

DEVOTIONAL
"Because the creature itself also shall be delivered from the bondage of corruption into the
glorious liberty of the children of God. For we
know that the whole creation groans and travails in pain together until now."
~ Romans 8:21-22
Our founders set out to
create a new nation and
wound up changing the world.
I must ask myself today what
this world would have been like
if the United States of America had
never been created by the brave
and insightful men and women
of our past? It would have been
far different and that is a sure
thing.
Paul wrote in his letter to the Romans
about how that the "creature" would be delivered from its bondage to corruption by being
born anew into the glorious liberty of the children of God. What this requires of course is
faith in Christ and without it this form of liberty will never occur. What the "creature" (the
created man) needs is deliverance from his
own emptiness of heart and soul and mind.
He was corrupted by sin which originated
with Adam but has continued with his descendants since the first sin was committed. We,
through sin, have not helped our cause one
whit nor have we improved our standing with
25
God. We want to be "delivered" but we want to
be delivered by our own means and not by the
means provided to us by God in the Person of
His Son, Jesus Christ. We should have learned
by this time that for all of the efforts on our
part to return ourselves to the original condition and status of Adam, we cannot. We have
attempted to re-create Eden
and have failed miserably
in our attempts. No man, no
person, can do what God alone
has reserved unto Himself to do.
It is interesting to note that
even as I write these words, Egypt
is once again in a state of chaos and
turmoil. In Syria there is much the
same thing and we can see it again
in Turkey. What is all of this unrest
about? We can even see some of these undercurrents right here in our own country.
The reason for it is that what we expect from
our national leaders is impossible for them to
do. They cannot re-create Eden nor can they
bring liberation to the human soul. The best
they can do is to put together a poor replica
which has a few minor semblances of it. In the
words of Julia Childes, "Only God can make
a peach".
Be encouraged, heaven (God's true heaven)
is coming to us and for us.
God bless and go and have a great day.

AROUND TOWN
Lutheran High School
Senior Samantha Ayres
spent seven weeks in
Leon, Spain this summer
as part of Indiana University’s Honors Program
in Foreign Language.
The application process
to get into this highly
competitive program required testing, recommendations, a record of
academic achievement and a personal interview. Sami stayed with a host family and attended classes in Spanish culture, grammar, literature and conversation taught by IU faculty. The
trip was transformational for Sami, not only in
the advancement in her Spanish language skills,
but in the relationships she developed with her
host family and fellow Hoosier students. These
relationships remain strong and the students
recently held a reunion of sorts, enjoying a day
at Cedar Point in August. Sami is currently making application to colleges including Indiana
University, Georgetown, and Macalester where
she plans on majoring in International Business
and minoring in Spanish. She plans to take full
advantage of student abroad programs, given
her great experience with this trip. She is serving
as President of the Student Council, manager of
the Volleyball team and participates in band and
choir. She is also a Student Admissions Ambassador. Sami is the daughter of William and Linda
Ayres of Indianapolis.
