New YMCA is centerpieceof northeast Fort Wayne

development

A new northeast YMCAis the centerpiece of aproposed development onthe last stretch of farm-land on St. Joe CenterRoad between Maplecrest

and Reed roads.Don Steininger of Steininger Properties LLCis the developer of the 72-acre parcel. He plans toclose on the purchase of the property in December,at which time the YMCAof Greater Fort Waynewill acquire 20 acres of the parcel for its newfacility.

The YMCA is payingexactly the same amountper acre that Steininger’sdevelopment partnership,Steininger Real EstateDevelopment Investors

11, is paying.“We’re not making any

profit on that,” Steiningersaid. “I want to make surethe community under-stands we are selling it tothe Y for exactly what wepaid for it.”

The lot is just east of Kroger, on the south sideof the road. A house andbarn on the property willbe demolished to makeway for the development.

Plans call for the prop-erty, currently zoned foragriculture, to be rezoned

for a development thatwill include four commer-cial outlots on the frontand senior housing —perhaps both multitenantand single family — onthe remaining 47 acres.

Steininger said heexpected to encounter noreal obstacles with thezoning change.

“You never go in andask for something unlessyou’re pretty sure you’regoing to get it,” he said.

The outlots could beused for businesses suchas banks and credit

unions, Steininger said.The planned developmentzoning also will allow forthe construction of inde-

pendent and assisted-living facilities. A nursinghome, should that beadded to the plan, wouldrequire an additional vari-ance.

The YMCA probablywill be in the neighbor-hood of 60,000 squarefeet in size, a littlesmaller than theJorgensen Family YMCA

on Aboite Center Road inFort Wayne. The cost isestimated to be in therange of $8 million to $10million.

There are three “big-box” features mostYMCA facilities include:a pool, a gym and a well-ness center, said CEOMarty Pastura.

Beyond that, thefeatures and services thenortheast YMCA willhave will be tailored tothe needs of the residentsin the area it will serve,said Nicole Liddell, the

YMCA’s director of mission advancement.

“The needs of thecommunity are impor-

tant,” Liddell said. “Wedon’t just come in andestablish a facility. Wewant to find out what’sneeded first.”

The YMCA will estab-lish a volunteer board andhold community meetingsto get feedback on various

options, Liddell added.The YMCA has beenlooking at establishing anew facility on thegrowing northeast side of the city for some time,Pastura said. The area hasadded a lot of new homesin the last few years, anda YMCA on St. JoeCenter Road will be moreconvenient for those resi-dents and relieve some of the crowding at the busyParkview Family YMCAon Dupont Road.

“The rule of thumb isthat people will drive 12

minutes or seven miles,whichever isshorter,” Pastura said.

Steininger, who devel-oped the Northbrook Village and Chapel Ridgeshopping centers, cameout of retirement recentlyto do this project and afew others that are in theworks. “It would havebeen a lot more difficultto develop without the Y,”he said.

Steininger and his part-ners will invest about $1.2million in developmentcosts. Sanitary sewer linesto the property are alreadyin place, but storm sewerswill have to beconstructed.

A road also will bebuilt to provide accesswithin the property and toan adjacent piece of landowned by the St. JosephUnited Methodist Church,Steininger said.

Pastura estimated theplanning, fundraising andconstruction of the newYMCA could take as longas five years, butSteininger said he hopes it

will go much faster. “Weplan to begin marketingthe property immedi-ately,” he said.

ESA art show displays‘creative spirit’

Easter Seals Arc spent arecent Sunday at the Fort

Wayne Museum of Art,celebrating the artistictalents of people whohave disabilities, byhosting an art show. Theevent featured more than126 art pieces made byadults and children whoare served by the organi-zation. The art includedcanvas, color drawings,black and white drawingsand photographs.

The idea to host the artshow started from thestaff of Easter Seals.

“The idea for this grantcame out of staff’s desireto provide people withdisabilities hands-onaccess to the arts and apublic forum to exhibittheir work,” project coor-dinator Mary Fyfe said.

The direct care staff hada major role in helpingput together the program.

“Direct care staff attended the classes withtheir clients to providesupport and to gain skillsto facilitate similar artsactivities as part of ongoing operations,” Fyfe

said.Weekly classes to

prepare for the show wereconducted and taught bycontracted artists during

the spring and summer.The media of the work ranged from painting,drawing, photography anddrum music, a press state-ment said.

Local artist Julia Meek taught “The Power of Drawing Class 101,” forparticipants. “Julia is wellknown locally for herartwork, workshops, folk-tales and storytelling,”Fyfe said.

Allison Ballard facili-tated the drum circles,utilziing percussionensemble instruments.

She is thedirector/founder of FortWayne Taiko. The groupperformed live at theSunday show.

Another artist whodonated time wasDanielle Kiefer. Shetaught photographyclasses, leading the partic-ipants to places such asLakeside Park and a ball-room dance studio to snapphotos. Kiefer is aphotographer and graphicdesigner.

“The bottom line for allthe classes was thateveryone seemed to havefun and enjoy whateverthey were doing—drum-

ming, drawing, paintingor photography. Everyonehad their own special wayof expressing or capturingthe moment,” Fyfe said.

As project coordinator,she organized the classes,collaborated with artistsand volunteers and alsoplanned the final exhibit.

The program is fundedby a grant by an IndianaArts CommissionRegional PartnershipInitiative, which is admin-istered through ArtsUnited of Greater FortWayne and the Magee

O’Conner Family Founda-tion, she said.

Clients who partici-pated in the event had “awide range of develop-mental and physicaldisabilities,” Fyfe said.

“When I look at eachpicture, I see a uniqueindividual with a percep-tion of his /her world,projected as clearly as afingerprint. This finalevent is a celebration of the creative spirit thatlives in all of us.”

Fall art installments bring oil paintings and clay work to galleryThe First Presbyterian Church Art

Gallery has two fall exhibitionscurrently showing. They will beinstalled until Oct. 9.

The first exhibition includes GreggCoffey’s work, which includes oil paint-ings, mixed media and giclee prints.Coffey is an accomplished printmakerand painter, who began his studies inprintmaking at Indiana University. Healso studied Tibetan painting and earneda Master of Arts degree in Printmaking.“Gregg’s work is an amalgam of avariety of influences: his studies in

religion and music and training inChinese painting among others. Hiscurrent work is archetypical, symbolicand mythological,” a press statementsaid. Coffey resides in Chicago.

“I make images that I can get lostin—alternate worlds to inhabit andexplore,” he said, in a statement.

Also on display is the contemporaryclay work of Elizabeth Wamsley. Shewas president of the American CeramicSociety from 2005-2007. Wamsley

studied ceramics at Indiana Universityand has also taken several workshopswith distinguished ceramicists.Currently living in Syracuse, Indiana,she is an award-winning artist.

“I use many different methods tocreate a dialog between past andpresent. Sometimes this means buildinga new piece from an old work. Throughdisclosure of my personal identitywithin a body of work, it might begin tocarry multiple readings as a reflectionof collective identities,” she said, in astatement.

The Art Gallery is located in thelobby of the theater, at 300 West WayneStreet. For more details, call 260-426-7421.

A new Healthkick

Nutrition Center locationhas opened on Maysville

Road. The other Health-

kick locations, which areowned by three brothers,

Dan Morris, Bob Morrisand David Morris, are

scattered throughout theFort Wayne area,including one in South-west Fort Wayne, one atDupont Road and anotherat Georgetown. The busi-ness has been serving FortWayne since 1998.

The stores offer supple-ments and a wide varietyof health products.

“We have a little bit of everything, as far as healthproducts go,” Dan Morrissaid. “Specifically supple-ments, vitamins, herbs,minerals and sports nutri-

tion products. But really,our main focus is to havehigh quality products at afair price.”

He said a knowledge-able staff really sets thestores apart.

“Bob and I have 13years of experience at thehealth food store level.I’ve been in the industryfor 15 years,” he said.

Morris said hisyoungest brother, David,who manages theMaysville Road location,“grew up as a teenager at

the Georgetown store.He’s just been around it

all of his life.”The Healthkick

management team is alsoconscientious about whois hired to work at thelocations because theywant their staff to be well-trained.

Morris said he also likesto be a support to thecustomer and educate visi-tors on products.

“We like to educate,” hesaid. “There’s a lot of stuff out on the marketthese days. It can getconfusing and we try to

know what we have andwhy you would need it.”He said one of his

favorite parts aboutworking at Healthkick is“interacting withcustomers. Everyday, weget to talk to differentpeople and help makethem healthy.” Working asa support system, hewants customers to check in and keep him posted onprogress.

“We really do love tohelp people withprograms. Again, the

advice is no charge andour encouragement is no

charge,” he said.The Maysville Road

store also has the addedbonus of having a nutri-tionist and certifiednatural health practitioneron staff. Jennifer Monnstudied at Purdue Univer-sity and customers can setup consultations with her.

David Morris said thestore gives customers “thebest products. There’s no

junk.”Dan said the stores are

also going to start concen-trating on providing

gluten-free products. “1 in10 people have a glutenintolerance,” he said.“Rice protein is gettingvery popular. It agreeswith everyone’s diges-tion.”

In the end, Dan said thehealth food and supple-ment industry isconstantly changing.

“We have to constantlybe aware and try out thebest to know what’s newand if it is just a fad,” hesaid.

Clear advice fordriving in fog

Fog is fairly similar to acloud, but instead of making itself at homehigh in the sky, fog likesto stick around at ground

level. It forms when theair temperature drops tothe dew point (the temper-ature at which airbecomes saturated) andinvisible water vapor inthe air condenses, formingsuspended water droplets.

Driving in fog can betricky. It can reduce visi-bility to a quarter-mile orless. To make things alittle easier, here are sometips for staying safe whileyou’re on the road:

• Set lights to low-beam. High-beam lightsactually reflect back off the fog, making it harderto see.

• Slow down! Whenyou’re driving in fog, itcan be difficult to tell

exactly how fast you’regoing.

• Listen up! You maynot be able to see as wellas you usually can, so it’sa good idea to listen forother vehicles. (Turn off the radio, and consideropening your window acrack, too.)

• Use the right edge of the road as a guide. (It’sa safer bet than the centerline.)

• Keep your windowsclear. Use your wipersand window defrost toenhance visibility.

•••Keep it cleanYou may not have time

to wash and wax your caron a regular basis, but if you’re like most carowners, you certainlyknow when it’s time tostop at a car wash andgive your car a quick bath.

What about the insideof your car? Is there trashon the floor? When youoffer someone a ride, doyou have to move piles of

assorted treasures so theycan sit comfortably? Or -be honest here - are thereFrench fries lurking invarious nooks and cran-nies?

Here, are a few quick tips that will help youkeep car clutter undercontrol:

• Get in the habit of removing trash daily. Getrid of those empty sodacups and gas stationreceipts!

• Don’t let things pileup. When you arrive homeat the end of the day, besure to remove everythingthat doesn’t require apermanent residence inyour vehicle. Ideally, kids’backpacks, shopping bagsand magazines should becarried right back into thehouse.

• Keep a microfiber cloth in your glove box,

and wipe down your dash-board when you have afew minutes to spare.(What else are you goingto do while you wait for

your child afterdance/soccer/swim prac-tice?)

• Finally, consider keeping a container of wet wipes in the car , too.These come in handy forall sorts of quick spills.

•••Save on gas

High gas prices havecertainly stuck aroundlonger than we’d allhoped. Are you doingeverything you can to savemoney at the pump? Hereare a few ways to save alittle of your hard-earnedmoolah. (It may not seemlike much, but hey … itall adds up!)

• Don’t go premium.Unless your car requireshigh-octane gasoline(check your owner’smanual to find out), youcan stick with lower-gradegasoline. (Don’t pay for

the pricey stuff if youdon’t have to!)

• Tighten your gas cap.If there’s a way for gasfumes to escape from your

car, they will. Give yourgas cap a few extra cranksafter you fill up to makesure it’s secure.

• Make sure your tiresare properly inflated.Poor tire pressure candecrease your fueleconomy and decrease thelife of your tires. It’s a

good idea to check yourtire pressure about once amonth (find the recom-mended air pressure foryour vehicle on the insideof your driver’s side dooror in your owner’smanual).

• Replace air filters.Dirty air filters (dirt, dustand dead bugs can clogfilters in a hurry) willmake your engine work harder than it needs to.Replace your filters peri-odically to improve yourcar’s performance.

Good car care can go a

long way towardimproving your car’s effi-ciency. Get in the habit of doing these little things,and you’re bound to save.

It is that time of yearwhen families make thepilgrimage to local you-pick farms to find that

perfect pumpkin. But forthose looking to put atwist on family tradition, ashort drive will rewardvisitors with much morethan pumpkins.

In its first year, theAmazing Fall Fun Maze,3150 County Road 43 inWaterloo, boasts a 10-acrecorn field cut to create acustom-designed cornmaze that pays tribute to anortheast Indiana pastime.

While it may not beapparent standing fromwithin the maze, an aerial

view reveals the corn-cleared aisles form theshape of a Duesenberg

automobile.Larry Smith, who co-

owns Amazing AcresFarms with his wife,Rhonda, calls the cornmaze design his brain-child.

“I felt it would be neatto do something signifi-cant to our area. Theautomobile heritage of northeast Indiana is astrong one and I wanted tohonor it,” Smith said. “Italked to the design teamat The Maize, Inc. and wecreated it.”

Utah-based The Maize,Inc. specializes in cuttingmazes through corn fieldsacross the country.

To do it, participatingfarmers begin by plantingcorn on a grid system.Flags are then placedevery 20 rows to indicatewhere cuts should bemade; Rows from aprinted drawing arecounted on the ground andmarked with paint. Whenthe corn is a foot tall,chemicals, mowers or rowtills are used to go overthe markings to createpaths. A team from TheMaize, Inc. came toSmith’s farm and shapedthe design in just five

Whether you want toeat healthier or work outmore, there are alwaysdays where staying moti-

vated isn’t easy. Out of allthe factors involved inlosing weight, beingconsistent in motivation

proves to be the mostchallenging. I honestlydon’t think any oneperson, even fitness

celebrities like JillianMichaels or RichardSimmons, love getting upand being strict in their

regimen every single day.There is a need for growthin order to achieve yourgoals and when you feel

unmotivated, it may betime to learn more.Looking to be inspiredand to make the ordinarymore exciting is how youkeep going. It doesn’thave to be a grand eventeach time. Little thingscan inspire you beyondwords; you just have to beable to take yourself outof the box.

First of all, recognizewhen your motivationstarts to lapse. When youstart dreading going towork out or don’t seem tocare about what you eat,notice the situation andwrite down why you feelit’s happening. Oftentimes it starts withthoughts like, “I just don’twant to,” or “I’m tired,”but after bringing it toyour awareness, deeperreasons start to come out.Be open to looking deeperinto why you don’t wantto improve your health.

When lapses occur,recognize it and get rightback on track. Avoidsaying things like, “I willstart again Monday” or

“after this happens, then Iwill get back on track.”

Believe in yourself enough to know that youcan do it even when lifehappens.

Second, avoid criti-cizing or judgingyourself and become anobserver. At a recent yogateacher training I attended,we talked about the

different parts of themind. In yoga, they referto the “small mind” andthe “big mind.” The“small mind” is the criti-cizing mind. For example,have you ever beentempted by your favoritedessert and you keeptelling yourself reasonswhy you deserve to haveit? Then you do have itand all you keep thinkingis how you can’t believeyou gave in and howawful you feel for notfollowing through withyou goals. This is the sideof our mind that’s alwaysracing and has a hard timeletting go. The “big mind”is our observing mind.This is the side of themind that recognizes

what’s going on and looksbeyond criticism to findclarity and further moregrow in your own essence.It is through trial, errorand experience that weevolve. Getting in touchwith our “big mind”allows us to experiencethis.

Finally, find inspira-tion. Make the intentionto learn more aboutwhat you love or how toincorporate health inways often unseen. Soyou may hate going to thegym, but that doesn’tmean you can’t work out.Find out what you likeand make it fun. Forexample, my husband andbrother-in-law lovewatching football. Everytime their team scores,they do push-ups. Theyhave even gotten creativeon what kind of push-upsthey perform and whenthey perform them.

I often find inspirationwhen attending a newworkshop in yoga orfitness. Even though my

intention is to learn morefor my students/clients, Ialways learn more aboutmyself. I feel so inspiredthat my level of healthincreases and I find clarityon things I often have felt“stuck” in. Inspiration ispowerful, so be open toareas that may inspire

you. It may be a song, the joy of watching your kids,the simplicity of making ameal, or even seeing aperson walking down thestreet that just made yousmile. Translate joy andpassion into good health.There is no reason youcan’t love your life andfeel good too.

In honor of passing onthe words of my teacherand her teachers’, Ishare this with you:“You are perfect the wayyou are, stop lookingoutside yourself forsomething and recognizeyour gifts. Observe thegrowth in your heart.”

Cristen Sprunger startedan academic organization,Care 2 Learn, because of aneed in the community.

Parents at schools,churches and other serviceorganizations in thecommunity were askingabout tutoring andacademic camps andSprunger, who has a back-ground in education,wanted to help. Shestarted by teachingstudents reading from herhome and then expandedwhen she felt the time wasright.

Care 2 Learn is a faith-based ministry that offersa variety of academic

programs for childrenages 5 to 18, as well asadults of any age. The

organization has partneredwith churches to offermultiple locations aroundthe city and offerstutoring, summeracademic camps, homeschool academy sessions

and speech-languagetherapy. The after schoolclasses offer anythingfrom art to math, to studyskills and more, Sprungersaid.

The home schoolacademy offers classes forcredit for studentsworking towards theirhigh school diplomas.“We are partnering withthe home school parent,”Sprunger said, adding thatstudents who attend thisacademy “can still stay athome and do instructionwith us on a part-timebasis.”

Three foreign language

classes are offered.“Spanish has been ourmost popular,” she said.“But we can certainlyoffer French andGerman.”

Sprunger is proud of the

well-qualified instructorsshe has assembled toteach the classes. “Manyof our teachers also teachat local colleges anduniversities,” she said. Shesaid the service sets itself apart from others by theenthusiastic instructors.“The quality of instructionsets us apart. Our teachersare not here for apaycheck. They are hereto make a connection withthe student.” Care 2 Learntutors and instructorsmaintain a mentor rela-tionship with the student.

The service doesn’thave long term contractsand goes thirty days at atime. Sprunger also said,“we’re the most affordablypriced in town,” andadded that she has triedhard to make the programaffordable for families ona budget, while trying tomeet the needs of thecommunity and the

demand.She is also trained tooffer Orton-Gillighaminstruction. This is amulti-sensory instructionthat benefits students whomay be dyslexic. Sessionsare custom designed tomeet the student’s indi-vidual needs.

“Most of our referralscome through Fort Wayneneurology,” she said. “We

started working withstudents with dyslexia,ADD and ADHD.”Sprunger said not manyeducators are trained inthe specific method andthat she offers a hands-onapproach to teachingthrough Orton-Gilligham.

Care 2 Learn instructorshave also partnered witharea schools.

“Our instructors actu-

ally have the curriculumfrom the schools, tounderstand how theteacher might be teachingand ensuring that we’re allin this together,” she said.“We are absolutely

passionate about making adifference and connectingwith our students, makingthem lifelong learners,”Sprunger said.

Math is one of Care 2Learn’s biggest areas fortutoring. One of theinstructors, Jodie Cruz, is“very, very busy,”Sprunger said. Studentsare given formal assess-ments for the subjects theywould like tutoring orclasses in.

Continuing with theidea to serve the demandin the community, shesaid if parents andstudents see any areathat’s not included in Care2 Learn current program-ming, they should call andsee if it can be added. Forfurther details, visit theservice online atwww.care2learntutoring.com, www.care2 lear-nacademy.com, or call260-436-6393.

treaters attend each year.The “safe Halloween” celebration started during a time

where there was uncertainty about receiving candy fromunknown people.

“Tom Jehl, my dad, began this back in the 1970s, as asafe alternative to going to unknown neighbors back when some candy or apples were allegedly tamperedwith,” Maureen Partee said.

When the event began in 1972, Georgetown Squarewas surrounded by neighborhoods and “was kinda out inthe middle of nowhere,” she said.

Some time around there, rumors about apples withrazor blades and candy with needles surfaced. “Some of the hospitals were offering to x-ray the candy,” she said.

Since then, the event has gone on, each and every year.“The merchants have been passing out candy every

year since as a community service,” Partee said. “Thereis also a costume judging contest, the New HavenAlumni Band dresses up and plays crowd pleasers andlast year, we added pumpkin chucking.”

This year’s pumpkin chucking contest will includeprizes and a special guest.

“Paula Hughes will be out tossing pumpkins,” Parteesaid. Mayor Henry was also invited to participate.

The winner from last year was used to throwing thepumpkins, because he used to do the same thing when heworked on a cattle farm, she said.

But Partee is quick to say, “they don’t go as far as youthink they would.”

The New Haven Alumni Band will set up in front of Jeff’s Coney in the courtyard. Guests are invited to bringlawn chairs to listen to the music.

She remembers going to the event when she wasgrowing up. “They had costume judging a lot in the early80s. My sister and I would be judges,” she said.

The celebration also brings up memories for otherattendees. Steve Jehl, said one attendee, Martin

Carbaugh, went to the event when he was nine or tenyears old and today, brings his own children.

“He won the costume contest twice,” Jehl said. “Lastyear, he brought his kids out and he was reminiscingabout the contest that he won when he was young.”

In addition to passing out candy, Partee said some of the stores may also choose to hand out coupons or otherfreebies.

She said the fact that the event has become a secondgeneration tradition, with parents who attended whenthey were young, bringing their children in the presenttime, makes the event even more special.

“It’s been a continuous event since 1972. It’s alwaysgone on. My dad used to say it’s a little niche thatGeorgetown has.”
