Hamilton County Bridge 21 serves as the third and middle section of the three-section span. Bridge 21 was constructed using the bridge’s original plans, drawn up in 1890. The new span now connects White River Campground to Strawtown Koteewi Park, allowing for safe passage from the campground to the park’s 800 acres of recre-ational and educational ad-ventures.

“This unique bridge project not only enhances accessibility and safety for its users, it also preserves key pieces of Indiana trans-portation history,” Director of Hamilton County Parks, Al Patterson noted.

For support of the inno-vative engineering feat, the director recognized the Indi-

ana Department of Transpor-tation; Indiana Department of Natural Resources; James Barker, PE, VS Engineering; John T. Camden Construc-tion Co.; Washington Coun-ty Commissioners; Wayne County Commissioners; the Federal Highway Adminis-tration; Dr. James Cooper; USI Consultants, Inc.; Halv-erson Construction Co. Inc.; Maxim Cranes; Hamilton County Council; Hamilton County Commissioners and the Hamilton County Parks & Recreation Board of Di-rectors.

“We have done a lot in Carmel to help the next generation thrive in edu-cation, the arts, health and well-being. We’re also building a city with a high quality of life, one that our children will want to re-turn to when they are ready to work or raise a fami-ly,” said Mayor Brainard. “However, we can do more. We must also 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.”

Affiliated with the Hamilton County Youth

Assistance Program, this effort strives to build a healthy community for tomorrow by investing in the youth of today. Its goal is to reach at-risk children through family assistance, tutoring and mentoring programs, providing ser-vices to family and youth to enrich their lives.

Tickets and corporate sponsorships at a variety of levels are available for individuals and compa-nies wishing to support the youth of Carmel. More de-tails on sponsorships and ticket information can be found at CarmelGala.org.

4 Letter to the Editor

Thanks for reading The Reporter!

Letter guidelines this election seasonThe REPORTER

The Hamilton County Reporter, your hometown newspaper, is always willing to publish Letters to the Editor in our pages. But with the approach of the May 8 Primary Election, we are establishing some guidelines to keep things fair and bal-anced.

Letters to the Ed-itor addressing new topics about the up-coming election or the policies of individual candidates will be accepted until the end of business on Friday, April 27 and will be published on Saturday, April 28.

Letters in response to new topics published in our April 28 edition will be accepted until Tuesday, May 1 and will be published in our May 2 edition.

These deadlines will give candidates and their supporters the opportunity to reply to letters sent the last week of April.

Please send your letters to [email protected].

Letters to the Editor do not represent the opinions of The Reporter or our staff.

Dear Editor,Last year, with the support of my

family, numerous business leaders and volunteers, I entered the Indiana race for U.S. Senate. We traveled all over Indi-ana attending events and visiting with people. The response to my businessman candidacy was extremely humbling.

As a business owner for the past twenty years, I worked to listen carefully for what is working in our state and espe-cially areas that still need attention. What I heard is: Indiana needs leaders with re-al-life, real-world business experience who know what it means to do real work.

Things changed when we got to know Mike and Maureen Braun. After

learning about Mike’s successful busi-ness and his conservative values, we made a very tough decision, that the best way for me to be of service to Indiana, at this time, was to step out of the race and strongly support Mike.

As a successful businessman, not an attorney-turned career politician, Mike has spent his life creating real and mea-surable opportunities for Hoosiers. We need Mike Braun in the U.S. Senate.

The REPORTER As the weather and out-

doors begin to feel more like spring, Noblesville Parks’ golf courses have opened for the season. The City of Noblesville oper-ates two public golf cours-es: Fox Prairie, 8465 E. 196th St. and Forest Park, 701 Cicero Road. Each is now open for daily tee times and golf outings.

“It's been a long winter that Mother Nature doesn't seem to want to let go of, but we are very excited to be able to have both golf courses open and we look forward to a great 2018,” said Noblesville Golf Di-rector Gary Deakyne.

Fox Prairie Golf Course is a mature, tradi-tional style course with 27 championship holes and is considered one of the top

public facilities in Central Indiana. Built in 1970, the course includes a club-house, sandwich shop, ful-ly stocked pro shop, prac-tice green, driving range and new carts. Greens fees for a round of 18 holes start at $20 on weekdays and $32 on weekends and holidays. Special rates are available, including a weekday and evening weekend round with cart for $29 and a $20 twilight rate after 5:30 p.m.

Built in 1927, For-est Park Golf Course is Hamilton County’s oldest golf course. The nine-hole course features postage stamp greens, manicured fairways and challenging elevated tees and greens. The golf course is free of water hazards, which makes it enjoyable and

playable for novice golf-ers, but its green contours make it a challenge for advanced players as well. All greens fees at Forest Park include carts and start at $14 for a round of nine holes on weekdays and $15 on weekends and holidays.

Season passes can be purchased for both courses and new member season passes start at $1,000 for Noblesville residents and $1,080 for non-residents. A punch pass also is avail-able for those who pay up front for 10 rounds and re-ceive 12 rounds.

For more information or to book a tee time, call (317) 776-6357 for Fox Prairie and (317) 773-2881 for Forest Park. Tee times may be made online for either course at noblesvil-leparksgolf.com.

Hill leads 11-statecoalition supporting

Alabama’s voter ID lawThe REPORTER

On Friday, Attorney General Curtis Hill filed an amicus brief supporting an Alabama law requiring vot-ers to show personal identi-fication at the polls. Attor-neys general from 10 other states signed the filing.

Several civil rights groups have sued Alabama, claiming minorities are dis-couraged from casting bal-lots when they must produce IDs. Attorney General Hill said IDs are easy to obtain, however, and create no un-

due hardships for minority voters.

A U.S. district court already has upheld Alabama’s law as a constitu-tional safeguard against fraud and abuse, but plain-tiffs now have taken their argu-ments to the 11th Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals.

“States can protect the integrity of our electoral processes while also safe-guarding voter rights,” At-

torney General Hill said. “The federal courts af-firmed that truth when we in In-diana prevailed in Crawford v. Marion County Election Board. All we are asking of the 11th Circuit

is to protect the legitimate interests of states in making sure elections remain fair and trustworthy.”

More than $1 billion investment in over 900 INDOT projects statewideThe REPORTER

Governor Eric J. Hol-comb joined Indiana De-partment of Transportation Commissioner Joe Mc-Guinness as state and local officials marked the start of the 2018 Next Level Roads construction season on Fri-day. Officials kicked off construction for the year by breaking ground on a $143 million expansion of Inter-state 65 between Columbus and Seymour.

Governor Holcomb's Next Level Roads plan leverages long-term, sus-tainable funding to make

record-setting investments in Indiana's transportation system.

"Indiana is one of only a handful of states with a fully funded, long-term infrastructure plan. And, we're putting it to good use, not just for our roads and bridges – but also to attract more job creators to move and grow in our state,” Gov. Holcomb said. "Working hand-in-hand with local communities, In-diana is taking care of what we have, finishing what we started and planning for the future."
