Good morning, Carmel.

Carmel is hosting a busy slate of community events in the coming weeks with the annual Holocaust Remembrance Ceremony at Tarkington Theater on April 24 from noon to 2 p.m.—keynoted by Graham Honaker—and a Women in Faith Traditions panel on May 6 at the Carmel Clay Public Library featuring local interfaith leaders. Additional programs include a Brookshire Women’s Golf League starting in May, an Invasive for Native Tree Swap, open houses, public safety efforts, and local business updates that keep our community engaged and active.

VQ Labs is moving from its Indianapolis facility to a 5,300-square-foot headquarters at Carmel City Center and will open on April 28.

Owner Jeremy Wilson said the revamped center will add locker rooms, a functional fitness space and testing rooms to support indoor cycling and outdoor training.

On Saturday, Carmel split a doubleheader at Louisville Trinity as the Greyhounds lost the first game 3-2 — then won the second 8-0 with key hits from Anthony Back and his teammates.

Carmel is 5-5 and will host Westfield on Monday, face Terre Haute North on Wednesday and play a doubleheader at Fort Wayne Carroll on Saturday.

Bobby Allen became Hamilton Southeastern's new boys basketball coach on Tuesday after seven seasons at Guerin Catholic — where he won four sectional titles and led his team to state runner-up — and he met with his new team on Wednesday and Thursday; limited contact practices will start next week. His new role also offers a home advantage as his family lives close by.
