Jane (Thuer) Scott, BCHS Class of 1969, sends greetings to us from Georgia, where she is enjoying retirement with her husband Thomas. She is ‘Gigi’ to Noah (3 1/2 years) and Bear (1 year). She writes:

‘The best part of BCHS was the bonds made with some of the greatest women I met and continue to stay in touch with for so many years.’

Joshua Vaught, BCHS Class of 2001, has been named as part of the leadership team with The Fishers Event Center, a new, 7,500 capacity sports and entertainment center opening in November.

Jonas Coleman, BCHS Class of 2005, and his father, Captain Brownie Coleman, were recently featured on FOX59 in a story depicting how they have dedicated their lives to mentoring kids through sports and their jobs as IMPD officers.

“I feel like it’s almost every kid’s dream to be able to work alongside with their father,” said Jonas. Not only did he follow in his father’s career path, they both also volunteer with Indy PAL, the Police Athletic and Activities League.

“That’s always been a dream to be able to get out there and work with my dad, put the same uniform on that he had, and be able to do the same things that he did out here in the community and try to help out the best way I can,” Jonas continued.
