an academic<br />

and careeroriented<br />

development experience at<br />

Johns Hopkins University. He<br />

is attending the National Youth<br />

Leadership Forum: Advanced<br />

Medicine and Health Care, an<br />

Envision family program that<br />

provides students the opportunity<br />

to explore their interest and<br />

O<br />

ur<br />

classroom. Peter hopes to<br />

pursue a career in the medical<br />

field as a dermatologist,<br />

pediatrician, or an emergency/<br />

members of his class, received<br />

his white coat marking the<br />

passage of third-year veterinary<br />

students from the classroom to<br />

the clinics. Clinics started in<br />

graduation in May 2020. Trey<br />

Gellert who reside on Sawdon<br />

Ridge Road. Keep up the excellent<br />

work, Trey!<br />

I’m always amazed at how<br />

much litter lies along our beautiful<br />

countryside. This winter, I<br />

noticed the plethora of garbage<br />

on York Ridge Road and was<br />

thrilled to see that a cleanup<br />

day is scheduled for Saturday,<br />

July 13, from 9 A.M. until<br />

noon. Volunteers are needed!<br />

If you can help, please park<br />

at 5311 York Ridge Road.<br />

During this time, York Ridge<br />

Road will be closed from the<br />

intersection of York Ridge<br />

Road and Washington Street to<br />

the 5300 block of York Ridge<br />

Road. Thanks to the Miller-<br />

York Volunteer Fire Department<br />

for making this area safe<br />

by handling traffic during this<br />

time.<br />

I would love to feature you<br />

Music and Arts in the ’Ville<br />

The Batesville Music and<br />

Arts Festival celebrated its<br />

forty-sixth year of bringing<br />

together local artists, eateries,<br />

and entertainment as festivalgoers<br />

traveled to the’ Ville for<br />

three evenings of entertainment.<br />

The Indianapolis-based<br />

Endless Summer Band,<br />

“ESB” brought the party on<br />

June <strong>19</strong> as guests enjoyed<br />

tunes from the <strong>19</strong>50s through<br />

the musical favorites of today.<br />

ESB is in its 27th year of<br />

entertaining audiences across<br />

the U.S., Canada, Mexico and<br />

the Caribbean – and the longtime<br />

local favorite launched<br />

the fest in grand fashion.<br />

The twenty-first annual<br />

Batesville Area Arts Council’s<br />

Community Art Show reception<br />

was held at the downtown<br />

library with artists on<br />

hand along with their works<br />

and awards on display.<br />

Later, Thursday’s entertainment<br />

returned to Liberty<br />

Park with Disney’s “Aladdin”<br />

presented with the following<br />

cast members: Lily Gellenbeck,<br />

Mikaela Gutzwiller,<br />

Toccoa Filice, Delia Filice,<br />

Olivia Leising, Sophia Leising,<br />

Leo Canessa, Maddie<br />

Schrand, Mary Hunter, Olivia<br />

Phebus, Gabe Yunger,<br />

Rose Yunger, Vincent Keck,<br />

Endless Summer Band<br />

entertained despite rainy<br />

weather. (Photo courtesy of<br />

The Herald-Tribune)<br />

Quinn Keck, Mary Kara<br />

Wanstrath, Zoie Coffey and<br />

Caroline Tan. Nancy Huey<br />

served as the Broadway Kids<br />

director, while the production<br />

was directed and produced by<br />

Shannon Mullins.<br />

The Cincinnati Queen City<br />

Chamber Orchestra was up<br />

next with melodies as entertainment<br />

continued into the<br />

evening.<br />

On Friday festival-goers enjoyed<br />

an evening mix of rock<br />

and country tunes as local<br />

rockers, Rob Bruns, Mark<br />

Burkert, Brian Daeger, Don<br />

Lamping, Jeff Lecher, Scott<br />

Lecher, and Bryan Messer of<br />

Nuttin’ Fancy took the stage<br />

and kept the toe-tapping and<br />

dancing going late into the<br />

evening.<br />

A festival would not be complete<br />

without good eats, and local<br />

eateries did not disappoint!<br />

This entertainment extravaganza<br />

was offered through<br />

the planning efforts of the<br />

Mayor’s Committee for the<br />

Performing Arts with sponsorships<br />

from area businesses,<br />

organizations and individuals’<br />

freewill donations.<br />

Three nights of music and<br />

arts… another reason that<br />

“you can’t beat Batesville!”<br />

It’s Time to Bring In The Talk,<br />

and Screen Out The Noise!<br />

Hearing aids don’t just turn up the volume, in fact<br />

amplifying all sounds equally will cause listening<br />

discomfort and confusion.<br />

The technology within Starkey’s newest hearing aids stimulates<br />

only the parts of your hearing that have been damaged. This<br />

leaves any normal hearing un-amplified, allowing you to hear<br />

more clearly without the struggle.<br />

Best of all, at Flex Audiology your hearing prescription is set<br />

as you watch and listen. You will notice immediate before and<br />

after results.<br />

Call for your no-cost or obligation appointment today!<br />

Hurry, this event ends this Friday! Call today (812) 721-0309<br />
