Sunday, January 8, 2017 Sheridan, Noblesville, Cicero, Arcadia, Atlanta, Carmel, Fishers, Westfield Vol. 4, No. 5 Sunny today, mostly cloudy tonight. TODAY’S WEATHER HIGH: 18 LOW: 16 By JANET HART LEONARD 6:30 a.m. and the alarm went off on my phone. Time to check in for our flight to Tampa, the Sunday before Christmas. I breezed through my confirmation number and check in for me. Then I could find no confirmation for Chuck. This was not good. I called customer service and reached a lady whose accent let me know she was from a land far, far away. She couldn't understand me. I couldn't understand her. Eventually, after spelling my complete name and Chuck's complete name, she said, "husband not on plane, plane full, make another reservation." And so my "come apart" began. My calm and quiet sleepy voice went into wide awake, this is a nightmare, mode. I explained to her that on October 14th we had a record of TWO flights being charged on our credit card. She repeated what she had said and then proceeded to send me to another department. The voice message told me that all representatives were busy and that I would receive a call back in 48 minutes. Seriously. So for the next 48 minutes I had a panic attack. All sorts of thoughts crossed my mind. What if all the other flights were full? What if I had to fly without my husband? What if we had to drive? Sure enough, Jane from the good old USA called me back in 48 minutes. "Mrs. Leonard, there was a TYPO and so you did not receive a confirmation number. Would you like me to check your husband in?" Jane became my new friend. Yippee, I did the Happy Day Dance! By FRED SWIFT The Carmel City Council will have a new member when it meets tomorrow evening. Anthony (Tony) Green was elected Saturday in a caucus of Republican precinct committee members. Green fills a vacancy created with the resignation of Carol Schleif, a second term member from the city's Southwest District. Green, an attorney and veteran of the U.S. Air Force, won on the second ballot in what started as a four-man race. He will fill out a term that runs through December 2019. Others who were seeking the open seat were Ronald Hauck, Dan Deucher and Ranjit Puthran. The caucus was held at 10 a.m. at the Market Place conference room. County Chair Laura Campbell presided in the meeting attended by 10 of the 12 members of the precinct committee whose precincts are located in the district. Since Schleif is a Republican, the GOP committeemen choose her successor. Next Saturday, January 14, another caucus will be held in Fall Creek Township to choose a new township trustee. Jeff Hern resigned the position to take a seat on the County Council to which he was elected in November. Doug Allman, a member of the township board, said last week he will seek the office.
