25th Wedding Anniversary
David and Michelle McCarty were married on April 1st, 1985 at Jellico, Tennessee. David is the son of the late Duell McCarty and Don and Donna Cutshall. Michelle is the daughter of Barbara Weaver and the late John A. Weaver. They are the parents of Laura Ann McCarty and Amber (Nate) Lovett and the grandparents of Samantha and Larry Johnston, Sarah West and Lucas Lovett. The family dinner celebration was held at the couple’s home.
A record sixty-seven Coshocton County Career Center students and staff turned out to donate blood to American Red Cross at this year’s annual blood drive. Twelve potential donors were turned away because there simply wasn’t enough time or staff available to process the overwhelming number who wanted to give. The morning began with a few equipment problems with the laptops that Red Cross brought in for screening donators. “Our tech support team worked to get them up and running as quickly as possible, but we were about 45 minutes late getting the collections started,” said Career Center Principal Eddie Dovenbarger. Even so, Career Center students showed their dedication staying up to an hour after the school’s dismissal in order to give blood. In all, 38 units of blood were collected, just short of the school 42-unit goal. “With the record turn-out we had, I feel sure we would have been able to exceed our goal this year if everything had worked according to plan,” said Community Relations Coordinator Ginger Reiss. “I am so proud of our students for their incredible willingness to serve others by donating blood.”

“Behold the Lamb” has its final season
Can a play actually make a difference in a life? If you ask the cast members of “Behold the Lamb”, of the Coshocton Church of the Nazarene, the answer would certainly be a resounding, “Yes”. And while the story remains the same each year, many of the cast have changed with the years. Yet, some have been involved since the beginning, and Bethel Toler is one of those. Toler, who is cast in the role of a Roman soldier, had this to say, “This is my fifteenth year and every year it’s a blessing. We feel that if we can lead one person to Christ through this, it’s worth

Its right here and we can show them with this program.” When asked why one hundred people give up many late winter and early spring evenings and weekends to rehearse, sing, build the stage and practice, Buker responded, “It’s a calling. It’s a commitment. It has to be. It’s a great time of fellowship for our church as a group and a whole to get together, draw closer to God and to each other.”

Bittersweet memories came flooding back as the old South Lawn Elementary School faced demolition the following Tuesday. Although a new building would mean a better school system, many who would come to view the demolition would do so with a flood of memories. Principal of the school, Miss Josephine Baughman, said she looked forward to starting in a new building the next September, but would carry a memento from the old school over to the new one: a picture of Miss Tillie Laurie who was principal of the school until her retirement in 1931. She had died two weeks before the demolition of her old school. A police officer from New York who had gone to school there as a child, came back for one last visit to see his boyhood school one more time before it was gone forever.

After 41 years of postal service, Ralph H Wheeler announced his retirement. Ralph was a World War I veteran and had joined the local post office just out of service. In 1923, he received his appointment as a regular carrier on Route 3 in Coshocton. In 1937, he became a clerk and then became a superintendent of mails ten years later. In the First World War, Wheeler had been in the hospital unit with the Third Army Corps and served as second lieutenant in the local Field Artillery unit of the Ohio National Guard for 13 years. He plans to catch up on his fishing and hunting after retirement.

The Coshocton Rotary Club made its first donation to the Dollars for Scholars fund. Mayor S.G. Wharton of Coshocton has announced that April 5 – April 11 has now become Citizens Scholarship Foundation Week. Wharton signed the proclamation after been approached by Edward Thomson, general chairman of the Dollars for Scholars campaign. The mayor urged the support of the community because the future of the country depends on the education of the youth, and with the skyrocketing price of attaining a higher education, fewer youth are furthering their education. The first contribution was made by the Coshocton Rotary for $200.

April 2nd, 1980 The sixth annual art show was on display at the Coshocton County Public Library for the entire month of April. The work was created by students at Conesville and Keene Elementary. The show included displays of paper mache, bottle people, burlap stitchery, and brightly painted ceramics. Lynda Lowe, local art teacher, said that this would be the best show yet. The various art shows students have developed a sense of design, color and composition. The display could be viewed during the library’s normal operating hours.

West Lafayette Lions Club and Club Scion to have 6th annual Evening of Musical Entertainment Rated top nursing facility in the 2009 Ohio Dept of Aging Annual Satisfaction Survey (of the 20 nursing facilities located within 30 miles of Lafayette Pointe)
“I felt like it was my purpose in life to become a nurse.” I’ve lived in the Coshocton area my entire life. As a young child I would help my mom take care of an elderly neighbor and from that point forward I felt it was my purpose in life to become a nurse. I served six years in the United States Army Reserves and during my last 2 years, I started working at Lafayette Pointe as a nurses aide. I felt great satisfaction when I cared for my residents so I made the decision to continue my education; first becoming an LPN and most recently passing my State RN Boards.

spoke of how this song should tie in to our daily lives in our walk with Christ. He also talked about how God has always been and always will be and how God and Christ are one. He proclaimed God’s eternal love for us through the sacrifice of Jesus Christ, calling the story of the cross the greatest love story ever told. To think that God Himself came down to earth in our own human flesh and suffered and died because He loved us makes the story of the cross one of complete and total love. “We all have heroes in our lives,” said Pastor Searles, “Policeman, fireman, and rightfully so. Firefighters rush into burning buildings to rescue people every day. But how wonderful that God would put on flesh and come to earth and rescue us from our sin.” Pastor Searles closed with a blessing. The last Lenten Lunch of the season ended at around 1 p.m. A big thank you to all churches that participated and provided food and workers for the event. Also to Hinds Jersey Farm and Court Square Café for providing the cheese, and to John (Smitty) Smith and Jennifer Farrar, custodians at the Presbyterian Church, who cleaned up after every luncheon. Also a special thank you to Central Christian Church Disciples of Christ for printing up the bulletins each week.

Churches from all over Coshocton County celebrated the last Lenten Lunch of the season on Wednesday, March 24 at the Presbyterian Church. The event is sponsored by the Coshocton County Association of Churches each year. The Presbyterian Church, Prairie Chapel United Methodist Church, Trinity Episcopal and Keene United Methodist Church provided the food and servers for the last luncheon of the season. Guests had a choice of tomato basil or chicken rice soup and spinach or plain knish. There was also an assortment of pies to choose from. After the lunch, Philip Hunt presented Sue Carlisle with flowers for her hard work and dedication. For each Lenten Lunch, Sue had arrived early to help set up the food and servers and had stayed late to help with clean-up in the kitchen. Without Sue, the Lenten Lunches would not have been possible. Everyone rose and sang “When I Survey the Wondrous Cross” and then Deb Searles provided special music. She played her guitar and sang an Easter Medley about how Christ’s suffering on the cross brought us freedom. Cal Searles from the Calvary Baptist Church gave the message. He gave a brief history of Issac Watts, the man who wrote “When I Survey the Wondrous Cross” and many other hymns. He

the beacon Deleria “Dee” Tobias from Coshocton won second runner up in her first attempt in the Ms. Wheelchair Ohio 2010 contest held March 13 in Sunbury, Ohio. Any woman who uses a wheelchair full time and is between 21 and 60 can compete. Tobias graduated from Muskingum Area Technical College (now Zane State College) with an Associate Degree in Mental Health Technology. In 2005 Tobias graduated from Malone College with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Business Management. The five words that Tobias chose to describe herself are; determined, courageous, stubborn, ambitious and social. She said, “In the USA we are blessed to have services available that help the disabled with need of physical activities and shelters, instead of crawling into the streets to live and being treated like animals.” Tobias added, “Our government may not be perfect, but if we think of other ways to help the disabled in other world countries, we could make this a better place for all individuals with disabilities!”

“CHECKING” UP ON SENIORS According to the AARP, formerly known as the American Association of Retired Persons, as many as seven percent of adults receiving Social Security benefits have difficulty managing their household finances. This situation may result from physical changes due to the aging process, such as limited vision, arthritis, or cognitive impairments. Difficulties keeping track of household finances can lead to unpaid bills, undeposited checks, cut-off utilities, and even bank foreclosure or eviction. Having assistance with money management is critical. If requested, home healthcare services can provide someone to help the senior client organize and send out mail, pay bills, and balance a checkbook. Help with simple money management can preserve the senior’s right to make decisions about his or her future. You know that your parents want to stay in their homes, but the burden of caring for them can be emotionally and physically exhausting. You both deserve some help. At INTERIM HEALTHCARE OF COSHOCTON, our home health aides can take some of the burden off your shoulders. We can provide help with dressing, bathing, and cooking, which will let your parents stay home and let you have a life. Our services are flexible, to match your needs, which means we can offer 24-hour long-term care, or temporary respite care for overnight. Call 877-759-2106 to learn what we can do for you. Our address is 420 Downtowner Plaza. People you count on, care you can trust. P.S. The need for money management services will increase as the elderly population grows.

National Bookmobile Local man recalls Day to be observed early Arbor Day Wednesday, April 14 is the first-ever National Bookmobile Day, a time to celebrate the contributions of mobile library services in the United States. For over 100 years, bookmobiles have provided access to information and technology and supply resources for life-long learning to Americans of all walks of life, no matter where they are: rural areas, cities, or suburbs. The Coshocton Public Library is celebrating National Bookmobile Day with stickers and a pattern for making your own bookmobile for children grades K-3. A bookmark making contest will be for children in grades 4 - 6. The winner will receive a bag full of prizes and their bookmark design will be made into bookmarks and passed out to children in schools around the county. “Libraries are the heart of every community and our library helps our community thrive,” said Kris Ringwalt, Bookmobile Manager. “As a vital part of our library, bookmobiles bring these valuable resources to our patrons. Our bookmobile serves people of all backgrounds, providing access to services that patrons find in library branches, including reader’s advisory services, Summer Reading programs, delivery to shut-ins, story times and more.” National Bookmobile Day is a national observance sponsored by the American Library Association (ALA), the Association for Bookmobile and Outreach Services (ABOS), the Association for Rural and Small Libraries (ARSL). For more information, visit the Coshocton Public Library, call 740-622-0956, or see the library’s Web site at www.coshoctonlibrary.org.

standing by a maple tree that he says was planted in 1932 by the sixth grade class, in which Gill was a student, at Sycamore School. The background is a building on the Smurfit Stone Container property that stands on the same spot as the former school. Gill said the teacher and Sycamore School principal, Della Leech, was a very patriotic person and that the class always observed Armistice Day on November 11, Memorial Day – when they would walk to Oak Ridge Cemetery and decorate the graves of veterans with flowers. Some online research about Arbor Day resulted in finding out that Ohio’s Arbor Day is Friday, April 30. Further research brought up the two former Sycamore Schools – both demolished – Sycamore 1 built in 1855 and Sycamore 2 built in 1916. beacon photo by

Madison (age 2 ½) and Jaidyn (age 5) Brink were with their mom, Susan, for the second year at the Team Annin Relay pancake breakfast and Easter egg hunt. The girls were there to see the Easter bunny and to get some eggs. Jaidyn said, “I am here to get some eggs and play with the Easter bunny.” Team Annin Relay captains, Julie Darr and Brenda Howell, said, “We hold this event to raise money for the American Cancer Society, which is something we’re well known to do. We also do it to have fun and let the kids have fun.” Darr and Howell expressed their appreciation to everyone for attending and supporting the event including the volunteers that helped and the Easter Bunny, who will remain nameless but has the initials of D.W. Dozens of children had their photo snapped with the Easter bunny before heading outside to gather up some eggs.
spirited.” Classmates Jade Albert and Amy Terrell, said, “We’re sad that these kids died. It’s cool that these butterflies are going to a museum to honor them.” Central volunteer Judy Philabaum remarked, “I like to come and work with the kids and crafts. They don’t get to do that much with crafts and making things so this is a nice break. The kids are passionate about this project.” For more information on lesson plans and teaching aides, visit the Holocaust Museum Houston’s web site at www.hmh.org/minisite/ butterfly/index.html.

eral fourth graders at Central Elementary School who spent part of the day on Friday making butterflies that will be sent to the Holocaust Museum in Houston, Texas. The children joined a nationwide effort to make 1.5 million butterflies, with each butterfly representing one of the 1.5 million children that died in the holocaust. Beacon photo by mark fortune
Children in the fourth grade classes at Central Elementary School made butterflies that will be sent to the Holocaust Museum in Houston, Texas with each butterfly representing one of the 1.5 million children killed during the holocaust. The museum has set out to collect and exhibit 1.5 million handmade butterflies in their honor. The inspiration for the museum’s Butterfly Project comes from the poem, The Butterfly, written by Pavel Friedman, shortly after being sent to a concentration camp in 1942. Nine year old Ashley Roahrig said, “We’re supposed to make a butterfly and put it all together. It’s going to a museum. It’s a nice thing to do.” Barbara Teti, fourth grade teacher at Central, commented, “Mrs. Philabaum offered the project to the class so I gave them some background information. It was interesting to see the reaction that the children had. Some were in disbelief that the holocaust happened. The children were so passionate about this that before I knew it they got out of their seats and I was surrounded by children just talking. It was difficult for them to maintain a normal conversation they were so

Aromas of sausage gravy filled the cafeteria at the R.H.D.D building on Friday, March 26 as they celebrated DD month with a scrumptious breakfast of eggs, fresh fruit, and sausage gravy over biscuits. This is the first year the R.H.D.D in Coshocton County has had a residential breakfast commemorating DD month, and executive director, Lisa Bash, hopes that this will become an annual tradition. But it wasn’t just a delicious breakfast in store for the residents. They also watched an amazing video about two special needs adults who lived in a residential home in Chili and saved the lives of other residents during the earthquake last January. They also played Deal or No Deal and had the chance to win some pretty cool prizes, including
an iPod. Fifty to 55 residents were expected to show up for the breakfast. Other homes in Ohio such as Marietta, Athens and Zanesville also had breakfasts earlier this month. “These are some of the most sweet and genuine people in the community,” said Bash. This year’s DD month theme is “Just Like You”. Bash is challenging everyone in the community to come together, get to know one another and not shun a member of the community just because of a disability. R.H.D.D is a nonprofit organization and was established in 1976 with the county board support. For more information on R.H.D.D, visit their Web site at www.rhdd. org.

We’re starting to do more and more things in combination with other groups because the evening meals are a lot to pull together and that helps make for a nice event.” Lahna remarked, “It has been wonderful working with the senior center and getting together a crew to have such a fun night! All the staff from Coshocton Health & Rehabilitation volunteered to dress up like the 1950’s, help decorate and be here tonight. We have had such a ton of fun doing it and it’s going to be a great night.”

Local entrepreneur honored as career- Appleman becomes tech education supporter second lieutenant A young West Lafayette entrepreneur who publishes YOUnique magazine, dedicated to promoting children and their accomplishments across the county, has recently been honored by the National School Public Relations Association’s Ohio organization. Lynette Dotson was recognized as a 2010 Friend of Education award winner for her contributions in portraying career-technical training and Coshocton County Career Center students and programs in a positive light. Dotson, a 2001 graduate of the school’s business academy, launched YOUnique in August of 2009 with the idea of promoting the creativity and individuality of Coshocton County’s youth. She said that her goal with the magazine has been to promote a positive self-image and confidence in the subjects of her magazine’s content. In doing so, Dotson regularly focuses on all aspects of education and the arts. “I am really honored to have been nominated for this award,” said Dotson. “I tried to create something that was positive and unique in the community and something that promoted our young people. I guess I succeeded.” Although the magazine’s publication is currently suspended for a time, Dotson plans to re-launch YOUnique when her children enter

Mar. 20. “I think the dinner was just wonderful. The spaghetti was really tasty and I didn’t have to cook it – that makes it even better! Everything was good. It was a nice balanced meal with garlic bread, a good salad and a wonderful cupcake. Even the guitarist played my kind of music! Teresa Ott, who organized the dinner, remarked, “We’ve had a pretty good response this evening. We did a lot of presale tickets. This is our fourth year doing it so it’s grown a little, ebbed a little and grown a little bit again this year. The money goes into the boosters fund and the directors decide what they want the money to go towards. Over the past couple of years, they have bought new uniforms for the band, new uniforms for the choir, and also help out with going to a solo or ensemble contest or large group contests. We’ve went through about 80 to 90 takeout orders this evening so I think people are enjoying the nice spring weather.” Ott explained that, “The majority of the help comes from the kids themselves. They come in and prepare the salad and get things ready. My mom and dad have helped out for the past four years and of course Lisa at the cafeteria. I can’t say enough about the support we receive.”

Ten students from the Coshocton County Career Center’s Business Careers program embarked on a journey late last week to land a spot to represent the state of Ohio in the 2010 BPA National Leadership Conference in early May. Three will now get that chance, having earned a silver medal in their challenge. As they prepared for the BPA Region 5 Leadership Conference held at the Hyatt Regency Hotel in Columbus, Thursday and Friday, March 18 and 19, Niki Booth, Brianna Harp and Emily Hughes tuned and fine-tuned their Presentation Management Team campaign. Their task was to put together a marketing presentation aimed at convincing a panel of judges at a fictitious school to start a new BPA chapter. The team had between 7 and 10 minutes to deliver a hardselling, well-choreographed presentation and to answer questions from the panel of judges. In this competition they competed against over 15 teams in the region. Ultimately, the team finished their presentation in seven minutes and received a perfect score. At first the team wondered why they hadn’t placed first. Then it dawned on them that the first place team also earned a perfect score. “It might have been that our presentation was only seven minutes,” said Hughes. “We barely made the lower time limit, but the judges said they didn’t have any questions, so we felt like we must have done pretty well.” Whatever the cause, the team didn’t care. Their second place finish gave them enough of an edge to qualify for the national contest. And now the tuning and fine-tuning begins again.

Members of the various fire departments throughout Coshocton County, along with members of the Coshocton County Sheriff’s department, played their respective hearts out in the wigwam at Coshocton High School on Saturday, Mar. 27 to raise money for the American Red Cross – Ohio Hills Chapter, which represents Coshocton County. This was the second annual charity “Guns” versus “Hoses” basketball game. Jen Fannin, Ohio Hills Red Cross chapter executive director, said, “We are so honored to be the recipient of these funds. We work with both of these organizations on a twenty-four basis, all hours of the day and night and so we are very blessed to be the recipients of this today.” Fannin declined to make a prediction on the game, saying, “They all look pretty good in practice to me!” Deputy Mark Sharrock was the head coach for the Sheriff’s department. He said, “This is all about having some fun and giving back to the community”. While the local law enforcement was warming up the “hoses” were nowhere to be seen, apparently developing strategy for the game. Sheriff Tim Rogers laughingly remarked, “We’re kinda hoping they (hoses) don’t even show up. They did last year and weren’t that successful. We’re proud of all the guys and girls that participate in this charity event today – for everybody. It’s all about charity and having fun and we appreciate everyone coming out to watch.” Jean Haumschild commented, “I’m here to support this fine basketball game that is in community service but of course to support the Sheriff’s department. I think the pressure is on him (son Adam Haumschild) to play well this year. He hates to lose, but I told him that it was
all for fun and charity.” In a display of true sportsmanship and respect, the first basket was scored by elder “Hoses” player, Ernie Snyder. That lead held up through the first quarter with the score “Hoses” 9, “Guns” 8. The second quarter was close with the lead changing hands when Adam Bash made a three pointer putting the “Guns” up 17-16. The score at half was “Hoses” 16, “Guns” 18. The firefighters said, “We didn’t play worth a crap. We got to start scoring a little bit more, play a little better defense and make some shots.” Tyler McKee, who helped organize the event, said, “That had to be the most boring half of basketball to ever watch and play in! When asked about a strategy for the second half, McKee simply quipped, “Get the ball in the hoop!” Isaac Matthew Dickerson, on hand to watch his dad, firefighter Mark Dickerson, said, when asked how he thought his dad had played, “Not very good.” He added, “They need to make more shots in the second half.” “Guns” Coach Mark Sharrock had this to say at the half, “Play a little tighter defense, follow our shots and pick ‘n roll a lot more”. Joel Renner said, “We just gotta’ push the ball down the floor better” Mike Snyder, playing for the “Hoses”, had to leave the game with four fouls with 11:50 remaining in the third quarter. That move seemed to propel the law enforcement to take advantage of some points in the paint until Mark Dickerson took a charge with the score “Guns” 28, “Hoses” 22. Shannon Devore then popped a two point goal with Joel Renner following up with a three pointer, bringing the “Hoses” within five. Devore then missed a give ‘n go and Shriver sank two free throws with about a minute to go in the third, closing the gap to
three points. Haumschild then made a put-back making the score 27–32, in favor of the “Guns”. Firefighter wives Stacy Shriver and Mrs. Mark Reed showed their support, clamoring for better rebounding but confident that there would be a comeback. The “Hoses” were in the bonus almost as soon as the fourth quarter began and that lit a spark of determination and grit within the firefighters but the spark was extinguished with some defensive stops by the “Guns”. Snyder returned within a couple of minutes but the “Hoses” lost Brent McKee due to an ankle injury. McKee continued to root his teammates on from the bench while holding an icepack on his ankle and vowing to return next year. A give ‘n go with 8:30 remaining in the game made it 38-31 in favor of the “Guns” and Haumschild followed with two free-throws increasing the lead to 40-31. But the pesky firefighters refused to go away, “puttin’ on the heat” with some increased defensive pressure, as announcer Jim Nelson told the enthusiastic crowd. A three pointer by Dickerson brought the “Hoses” to within seven, but two quick buckets by Haumschild made it 47-36 and the firefighters zest for continuing the fight seemed to follow Mike Snyder’s fouling out with 1:38 to go. But again, the firefighters refused to leave a burning situation with Craig Shriver popping a three pointer with just over ten seconds to go. And while the final score was 55-43 in favor of the “Guns”, everyone won this game thanks to the spirit and enthusiasm of the respective teams, fans, referees and those that helped organize the event. Besides, there’s always next year.

When life threw lemons he made the best lemonade out of them. I’m amazed at his strengths. He was an inspiration and driven. The big thing was his smile!

Remembering a special person This plaque rests beneath the Buckeye tree that was dedicated Friday, Mar. 26 to honor the service to Coshocton County veteran’s by Matthew S. Lingo. Lingo lost his life in a vehicle accident last year. The Buckeye tree is planted at the corner of the Coshocton County courthouse nearest to the Veteran’s Service office and the route that Lingo took to work each day.

everyone showed him how much they loved him here today. It’s just been amazing the amount of community support we’ve had. And it all started with the calling hours. When he passed away some people waited five hours just to see us and him. That was just amazing and it’s gone from there; from local businesses to individuals to churches. Around every corner people are just supporting us and they still send notes of encouragement. The community has been just amazing. He loved this community and I think this community has turned around and showed us how much they loved him.”
Auctions and Real Estate
Those were the words that Jayme Lingo said a friend used to describe her late husband, Matt Lingo, and former Veterans Service Officer who was killed in a motor vehicle accident last year. Lingo was referring to the Buckeye tree that was planted at the Courtsquare last December and dedicated in a ceremony to honor Lingo on a cold and windy, yet sunny, Friday in March. Pastor Lloyd Tenney opened the ceremony with a prayer and said, “Matt made the difference in this county for so many.” Dave Dilly spoke to family members, veterans, members of the community and veterans council members stating, “Four years ago Matt stepped into the lives of many others and it is significant that we are gathered here on this date. The dash between the years on the plaque is short but that time meant so much to we who knew him. We will never forget him and this Ohio buckeye tree is planted in memory of him. Matt Lingo raised the bar in Coshocton County for working with our veteran’s. This tree is planted close to where Matt walked to work each day with that easy stride.” West Lafayette Mayor Jack Patterson, himself a veteran, also spoke complimentary of Lingo, saying, “He gave of himself and I am proud to have known Matt and to be a part of this dedication.” Gary Wion, a veteran from Muskingum County who was a member of the 101st Airborne in Vietnam from 1967-1968, said that Lingo, “Changed my life. He told me that he enjoyed doing the work and helping the veterans. Some people need help and he helped me. Matt looked at my records and helped me get help from the VA for my post-traumatic disability. I will never forget him. He was one of the most interesting and intelligent people I have ever met.” Dave Dilly, who held the Veteran’s Service Officer post prior to Lingo, said after the dedication, “He had an amazing impact on the

The River View high school speech and debate team recently placed second in public forum during a weekend contest at Marshall University in Huntington, WV. The four student team of Jordan Eaton, Caleb Chapman, Bethany Anglin and Nathan Shutt held a mock debate for parents, school officials and the community on Monday, Mar. 22. The team is under the direction of Mr. David Kridler. Kridler was presented with a Marshall ball cap and pen by the team. Kridler said, “I’m proud of how our kids conduct themselves and their dedication to it. Our kids play fair at these contests and sometimes that may cost us. This program really teaches them how to take apart an issue and look at it from all sides.” Jordan Eaton had this to say about the program, “This program has made me a much better speaker over the years I’ve been involved and has helped me stay current with the issues.

He wants to be a lawyer and I think this has benefitted him a lot towards that goal.” Mr. Dan Hothem, member of the River View school board, remarked, “I think this program is a great asset for the school. It was really impressive watching these young kids perform here tonight. The work they did was outstanding and I enjoyed it.” Dr. Karen Brown, representing the MVESC, added, “I’ve been following this for the past four years and the preparation and exposure they get at these competitions is fascinating. It’s enjoyable to watch and I love going.” Junior Caleb Chapman said, “This helps me really break things down, analyze things and take a stance on things.
