Bradley Redinger, the current Worshipful Master of the Fowlerville Masonic Lodge, gave the Welcome Address to start the Dedication Ceremony.

By Steve Horton Back in the fall of 1864, with the American Civil War still raging, a small group of Fowlerville men decided to start a Masonic Lodge in their hometown. They had been members of the lodge in Howell. The Grand Master of Masons of Michigan appointed Dr. Henry M. Spencer to be the Master of the new lodge, James Brown to be the Senior Warden, and Benjamin J. Lawrence to be the Junior Warden. Members of the new lodge were authorized to hold regular communications each Tuesday on or next preceding the full moon in each month throughout the year. The ¿rst meeting of Fowlerville Lodge 1o. 164 F. and A.M. was held on Oct. 29, 1864. But it wasn’t until Jan. 12, 1865 that the charter was granted by the Grand Lodge of the State of Michigan, making that latter date the Lodge’s of¿cial starting date. Meetings were held in the Palmerton Block (currently Harmon Real Estate) until 1899, with the lodge using the

beneÂżts of free and open access to information while drawing attention to the harms of censorship by spotlighting actual or attempted banning of books. The American /ibrary Association afÂżrms that all libraries are forums for information and ideas and that certain basic policies should guide their services. Here are a few of those guidelines: Books and other library resources should be provided for the interest, information, and enlightenment of all people of the community the library serves. Materials should not be excluded because of the origin, background, or views of those contributing to their creation. Libraries should provide materials and information presenting all points of view on current and historical issues. One of my favorite authors growing up was Dr. Seuss. I can remember my mother reading Dr. Seuss to me and when I was able to read by myself – I walked to a branch of the Detroit Public Library and checked out tons of Dr. Seuss books! Well, here are two of Dr. Seuss’s books that were either banned or challenged by the public: Hop on Pop... Challenged, but retained at the Toronto, Canada, Public Library (2014) despite a patron’s concern that the book “encourages children to use violence against their fathers.â€? The patron requested that the library apologize to local fathers and pay damages resulting from the books’ message. Really? Have you watched any of the popular Disney movies lately? Another Dr. Seuss books challenged but retained at the Vancouver, Canada Public Library (2014) was If I Ran the Zoo. Despite a line in the poem about helpers who “all wear their eyes at a slant,â€? accompanied by illustrations that are racial stereotypes of Asians, the book is often credited with the Âżrst printed modern English use of the word “nerdâ€? in a sentence. The library will no longer read it at Storytime or promote it other than as a resource material in a study of how the portrayal of other cultures has changed over time. With that, here is our quote for the week: “People say that life is the thing, but I prefer reading!â€?

Fowlerville Varsity Football Team earns a 14-6 league win over Eaton Rapids

Wayne Copeland, left, was recognized as a Hometown Hero by the Williamson chapter of Modern Woodmen. Presenting him with a certiÂżcate was Stephen E. Grice, Managing Partner of Modern Woodmen of America.

Local Modern Woodmen members honor hometown hero, Wayne Copeland Local volunteer Wayne Copeland of Fowlerville was recognized for countless hours of service to the community by area members of the Modern Woodmen of America. Copeland, several members of his family, and invited guests gathered at Great Lakes Family Restaurant on Sept. 17 for dinner and the presentation Copeland was honored “for his commitment and service to the community through Modern Woodmen’s Hometown Heroes Program.â€? As part of this program, members of the Williamston Modern Woodmen chapter presented him with a certiÂżcate, along with a 1 award grant to be presented to the charitable organization of the honoree’s choice. Copeland designated the Family Impact Center for the grant. “Volunteers form the foundation of a strong community,â€? said Sarah Kuch, local Modern Woodmen chapter activities coordinator. “Modern Woodmen’s Hometown Hero Program gives us the chance to thank those who selĂ€essly give their time to make the world a better place and to encourage others to volunteer.â€? Copeland is the current President of the Village of Fowlerville. Prior to being elected to that position, he served as a trustee on the village council. Copeland, in earlier years, served on the Conway Township Board, the Fowlerville Fair Board, and the Fowlerville Area Recreation Board. Coordinated by local Modern Woodmen members, chapters provide opportunities to take part in social activities and community service projects to meet local needs. For more information or to get involved, contact Kuch at 517-393-3800 or SarahLKuch@gmail.com. As a ta[-e[empt fraternal beneÂżt society, Modern Woodmen sells life insurance, annuity and investment* products not to beneÂżt stockholders but to improve Tuality of life for our members, their families and their communities. This is accomplished through social, charitable and volunteer activities.

A decision to go for a punt block late in the ¿rst half put the Fowlerville Varsity Football Team on route for their second win of the season. The Glads, with a 2-1 record, scored on that defensive turnover and then again in the third period to earn a 14-6 victory at the home of their CAAC White Division foe, Eaton Rapids, on Friday, Sept. 18. Defense was a key factor in the outcome. The Greyhounds amassed 287 total yards on 67 plays compared to Fowlerville’s total of 154 yards on 45 plays, but the Gladiator defenders were able to stop their opponents on third and fourth-down plays and allowed only one touchdown. Three other Greyhound possessions were ended on interceptions by Fowlerville. Cameron Brigham picked off two of those passes, with Nick Semke getting the other one. Reed Wilmot, a defensive back, was the Gladiator who blocked the punt with 4:13 left in the half. Alex Brownlee then scooped up the loose ball and ran it into the end zone. Bailey Edwards’ point-after kick made it 7-0. Fowlerville widened their lead to 14-0 midway in the third period when quarterback Nick Semke crossed the goal line on a keeper from two yards out to ¿nish off the Gladiator drive. Edwards converted the extra point with his kick. Eaton Rapids ¿nally got on the scoreboard with 2:50 left in the game on a ¿ve-yard TD pass. The point-after kick, however, was no good. Semke connected on 12 of 17 passes for 84 yards. He also picked up 59 of Fowlerville’s 70-yard rushing total on 23 carries. Alex Brownlee had 11 yards on the ground. Josh Nabozny caught six passes for 57 yards, while Adam Joliff had three catches for 12 yards. Leading tacklers on defense included Trevor Brock, Avery Slade, Garrett Prochnow, Jarod Miller, Scott Riley, Adam Jolliff, Nick Semke, and Austin Cahoon. Fowlerville hosted number one-ranked Lansing Catholic this past Friday night (past the newspaper deadline) and travel to Williamston this coming Friday night.

Called to the Ministry

Fowlerville! Are you Crazy!?

By Pastor Tom Tarpley In years past, Flint Trinity United Methodist Church was a vibrant and healthy community of believers, very active in ministry, who did a lot for the surrounding community. Containers: 2, 3, 4 & 6 Yards But after the automobile factories closed or moved away, 10, 15, 20 & 30 Yard Roll-Offs the neighborhood underwent a major change in population. Many of the middle-class families began to move away to Call: the suburbs. They were replaced by low-income families, who were looking to own their own home, but didn’t realize the cost and expense of maintenance on their properties. Today, these once beautiful homes around the church, and in the surrounding communities, are no longer nice looking and well maintained. The neighborhood has more abandoned homes than it does occupied ones. Crime, drug trafÂżcking, and prostitution have made it unsafe and dangerous to walk the streets even in the daylight hours. The members who were still coming to worship at the church were driving in from the suburbs, and the majority of them were white, elderly couples who had moved away several years before but didn’t want to give up on their church. When I arrived to take over as the new pastor, the church was down to about 50 active members who were just trying to hang on and keep the door open. We tried to reach out to the people in the community but it was no use. Those members who were able to do something, didn’t because they felt it wasn’t safe, while the others only came into town on Sunday. I didn’t want to request a new assignment, but Gloria was starting to feel unsafe. I didn’t like to leave her at home when I had to go away. Breaking into occupied homes in that community was as common as breathing. It happened at night and in broad daylight while neighbors were watching. RESIDENTIAL CLEANING $fter coming home one day and Âżnding a guy standing in Serving Livingston County & my garage, which was locked when I left home, I called the District Superintendent and told him we wanted out.

When I answered, the person on the other end of the line was the Ann Arbor Knights of Columbus District Superintendent.

of the qualities and gifts the people were looking for in a pastor. He thought this assignment would be perfect for me. Meanwhile, I’m still trying to Âżgure out the name of the church. Finally, he told me. “The church is in Fowlerville.â€? My Âżrst thought was,“<ou’ve got to be kidding me â€? But I said, “Fowlerville?,â€? adding “Do you know who you’re talking to? This is Tom Tarpley.â€? “I know,â€? he replied, “and we want you to go to Fowlerville.â€? Based on everything I had heard about Fowlerville and the Howell area, I was ready to tell him, “No thanks, if that is all you have, then I’ll retire.â€? Instead I told him I needed time to pray about it. Which Gloria and I both did. TKe Âżrst tKiQJ , GiG was to Jet oQ tKe iQterQet aQG *ooJle, ‘Fowlerville Demographics’. I found out that the population was 96 percent white, two percent Spanish, one percent black, and one percent other. I then called the President of the Diversity Council and talked with her. She assured me that the reputation on the outside was nothing like it was in the community. That was good to hear. I then started to read as much as I could Âżnd on the area. And, believe me, some of it was not very comforting or assuring given my situation. But in spite of all that, a few days later I called the District Superintendent and accepted the offer to come to Fowlerville and take over the First United Methodist Church. In my years of living, I have made some poor judgments and some really bad decisions, but coming to Fowlerville was not among them. My time here, as the pastor of the UMC, has been nothing but rewarding. From the Âżrst day till today, Gloria and I have enjoyed our time here in Fowlerville. We’ve enjoyed it so much that earlier this year, when I retired, we bought a Condo so that we could stay here. Moving from Flint to Fowlerville was like going from Hell to Paradise. The Âżrst day here, Gloria and I woke up to Âżne two of the prettiest deer we’ve ever seen standing in our back yard. Our new neighbors came over to welcome us, and everyone we ran into made us feel welcome. The few remaining members in our Flint congregation had concerns about our safety as well, so when I stepped into the pulpit that Âżrst Sunday more than half of them had driven over 50 miles to be here and offer us their support. They were pleased with the reception we received, and we all went out to lunch after the service. We have been privileged to serve eight years at the FUMC. Now I am looking forward to continuing to do God’s work at the United Brethren Church as the Care Pastor, as well helping out with the ministries of the Fowlerville Freedom Center and the Place of Refuge. Gloria and I have enjoyed serving in Fowlerville more than any other place we have gone. Thank you for making our time here a chain of memories that we will cherish forever. Next week I will bring this series to a close. For the past 19 weeks I have shared my story with you. Next week I will share with you just how I was able to do the things I did, and from whence my help came. I always save the best for last. Next Week: Gloria “The Rockâ€?

0iFKiJaQ 6eQate Report By Joe Hune, 22nd District

6taQGiQJ up Ior JuQ owQersÂś riJKts Recent events have drawn attention — often negative — to Americans’ right to own and carry Âżrearms. I am a strict constitutionalist who takes the words of our nation’s founders as written, which is to say that law-abiding citizens have a fundamental right to keep and bear arms. While some states have ultra-restrictive laws and rules about gun ownership, Michigan has long supported the Second Amendment. In fact, Article 1, Section 6 of the Michigan Constitution has enshrined these rights: “Every person has a right to keep and bear arms for the defense of himself and the state.â€? Michiganders are particularly fortunate that our state respects our rights and makes it relatively easy to purchase Âżrearms. Last March, legislation sponsored by my colleague, Sen. Mike Green, and signed into law by the governor, made Michigan a “Shall Issueâ€? state. This means that anyone who has met the legal requirements and followed the steps to get a concealed pistol license shall receive one when they apply. I was happy to vote for this bill because it further strengthened Michiganders’ rights to own and carry Âżrearms under concealment. The new law eliminates county gun boards and places concealed license issuance under the jurisdiction of county clerks, decreasing the entities involved in the process from Âżve to just two, including a background check by the Michigan State Police. This allows for a more efÂżcient and timely process for applicants seeking their license and it will cost less to do so. When the new law takes effect in December, applicants will have an easier time getting their concealed pistol license (CPL). Another active issue related to carrying Âżrearms is that of open carry. Michigan allows for any gun owner to carry a Âżrearm without a permit, so long as it’s completely visible. However, there are locations that are considered gun-free zones, and this issue has created confusion about the rights of CPL holders versus those who open carry. Essentially, as the law currently exists, someone with a CPL could enter a gun-free zone while carrying a Âżrearm out in the open, yet a CPL holder cannot carry a concealed pistol in the same location. This has created headlines of its own, and legislation has been introduced to straighten out the problem. Sen. Green’s Senate Bill 442 will close that open carry loophole and enable only CPL holders to carry concealed in gun-free zones. While I believe in and support open carry, doing so in a gun-free zone causes all sorts of problems, including, for example, unnecessary lockdowns at schools and police involvement, which distracts students from learning and ofÂżcers from performing their duties.

%ULDQ%HKQNH#'LFN6FRWW FRP

Some may argue allowing CPL holders to carry concealed in a gun-free zone is a bad move, but frankly, I believe this will make gun-free zones safer. Sometimes the only one to stop a bad person with a gun is a good person with a gun. If you are interested in learning more about Michigan’s concealed pistol law, visit the Michigan State Police website on the topic. Gun owners are arguably the most respectful, responsible and lawful people amongst the population, and in my capacity as a state senator I will continue to do what I can to protect their rights. Please feel free to contact my of¿ce if you have any questions about gun owners’ rights. My staff will be happy to assist you if you email SenJHune@senate.michigan.gov or call toll-free at 855-JOE-HUNE.

The guest speaker, who helped start this year’s Fowlerville Relay for Life, was Amber Myers. She is shown here with her husband, Chris, and 13-month-old daughter Chloe. Amber, a Lansing resident who works as a dental hygienist, learned that a cyst, which she’d been told for three years was nothing to worry about, was cancerous. She was eight months pregnant at the time. Chole was delivered early via a C-section and had the umbilical cord wrapped around her neck. “Chloe being delivered early due to my cancer prognosis saved her life,� Amber said. She also told the audience that doctors feared that the cancer had spread throughout her body, due to the cyst being present for three years. “The good news was that the cancer was localized,� she said.

The Zumba Fitness Team had a lot of items for sale at their tent and a lot of participants.

Kayla Grace White is the oldest daughter of Karyn and Nick White. White became a part of Webberville Schools when she was in the sixth grade. Previously, she attended Memorial Lutheran. Her two younger brothers, Matt and Zach, also attend Webberville. White started working two summers ago at Christians Greenhouse in Williamston. White is ambitious and her friends would support that observation. “Kayla is unique because she is very strong minded and knows what she wants. Also, she will be completely honest with you, which is rare,” said fellow classmate and friend Haylie Moran. White could be seen standing next to Moran and other friends at the home football games in the fall. Football is the sport that she really enjoys watching and will be watching for years to come since her two younger brothers Matt and Zach are currently participating in football. Her favorite memories are with her younger brothers. White kindly supports her friends and family and will go to great lengths to be there for them. Longtime friend and neighbor Vivian Gaffney said, “The thing I like most about Kayla is that, if she truly sets her mind on something, she will get it done. She is a very strong individual and a good person all around.” White was also involved with the Capital Area Career Center for Health Occupation for almost two years. This proved a great decision for her since it became her favorite class and favorite part of school. “I enjoyed meeting new people and being part of a class that all had the same goal,” said White. College is the place where you truly ¿nd those with similar interests and if White could go anywhere she would go to University of Chicago. But currently she is undecided about what school she will attend. “High School taught me ¿rst of all that not everything is as it seems,” said White. “Second, as cliché as it is, to always believe in yourself. You’re your number one advocate; you can help yourself or hurt yourself. And no matter what people say in the end, it’s up to you to make life into what you want.”

One of the Petoskey area’s most famous residents was Ernest Hemingway. The author spent his ¿rst 22 summers at the family vacation home on nearby Walloon Lake--or Lovely Walloona, as his sister, Sunny called it. The family cottage still overlooks this glistening lake, but is a private residence now, only rarely opened to the public. If you’ve read The Torrents of Spring (Hemingway’s second published book), you’ve read about Petoskey; the story and locales are based on the town. Some of the businesses young Hemingway frequented still grace the area, including the Horton Bay General Store, Jesperson’s, and Stafford’s Perry Hotel. A must visit for Hemingway fans is the Little Traverse Historical Museum which is housed in one of Petoskey’s two former railroad stations. The Hemingway exhibit housed in the museum is a testament to Hemingway’s attachment to the area and the people here. A minimal donation will allow you to visit the museum from Memorial Day through early October at 100 Depot Court. The Michigan Hemingway Society annually hosts a Hemingway Weekend in the Petoskey Area. The weekend, usually in October, brings visitors from across the country who come to take part in readings, tours and exhibits regarding the Nobel Prize-winning author. Applications for the event go online in advance and guests are welcome to enjoy all, or just part of the weekend’s activities. The Michigan Hemingway Society is also responsible for the production of a well-done brochure, Hemingway’s Michigan, which may be picked up at the Little Traverse Historical Museum.

Ask the Michigan State Trooper Sgt. Michael Sura A simple question this week. What is cyberbullying? Unfortunately, there is nothing funny about cyberbullying and there isn’t a good story to tell. Cyberbullying is wrong, mean, and puts kids at risk. So what is cyberbullying? It is bulling that takes place with the use of electronic devices. Electronic devices include such things as cell phones, computers, tablets, as well as communication tools such as media sites, text messages, chat rooms, and websites. Cyberbullying is also different because cyberbullying can occur 24 hours a day, seven days a week. It can reach kids, even when they are alone. Cyberbullying messages can also be posted anonymously and spread quickly. Photographs and images can be altered, and once out there can be hard to get deleted. What can you do to prevent cyberbullying? The Âżrst thing is to be aware of what kids are doing online. You should be aware of what your child is sending out and receiving. Know the sites your kids visit and their online activities. Ask where they’re going, what they’re doing, and who they’re doing it with. We often think of this when they leave the house. Now you have to think of this when they are in their room. Kids can be sitting in their bedroom and still be all over the internet. Tell your kids that as a responsible parent, you may review their online communications if you think there is reason for concern. Installing parental control Âżltering software or monitoring programs are one option for monitoring your child’s online behavior. However, do not rely solely on these tools. Have a sense of what they do online and in texts. Learn about the sites they like and try out the devices they use. Ask for their passwords, but tell them you’ll only use them in case of emergency. Ask to “friendâ€? or “followâ€? your kids on social media sites or ask another trusted adult to do so. Encourage your kids to tell you immediately if they, or someone they know, is being cyberbullied. The second thing - establish rules about appropriate use of computers, cell phones, and other technology. For example, be clear about what sites they can visit and what they are permitted to do when they’re online. Show them how to be safe online. Help them be smart about what they post or say. Tell them not to share anything that could hurt or embarrass themselves or others. Once something is posted, it is out of their control whether someone else will forward it. Encourage kids to think about who they want to see the information and pictures they post online. Should complete strangers see it? Real friends only? Friends of friends? Think about how people who aren’t friends could use it. Tell kids to keep their passwords safe and not share them with friends. Sharing passwords can compromise their control over their online identities and activities. One last thing - I hope the person who sent in the question Âżnds the answer in here they were looking for, and remember as always, you don’t have to just write - you can call. If you have questions or comments please email them to askatrooper12@gmail.com, or mail them to Ask A Trooper, Michigan State Police – Brighton Post, 4337 Buno Road, Brighton, MI 48116.

What Do We Mean By “Representative Government”? Column by Lee H. Hamilton :ith a presidential election year fast approaching, we¶re in for a lot of pXblic talk aboXt the state of $merican democracy. 0Xch of that discXssion will be insightfXl and thoXght provoking, bXt there¶s a good chance yoX¶ll also ¿nd a lot of it vagXe and hard to pin down. There¶s a reason for this. (ven oXr political leaders, the people who are most familiar with the system’s workings, have a hard time describing it. In fact, they even have a hard time labeling it. 2Xrs is not actXally a pXre democracy: it’s more accXrate to say that we live in a ³representative democracy´ ± that is, the people don’t themselves make decisions, bXt delegate that aXthority to their elected representatives. In this sense, we really live in a repXblic, a word yoX don’t often hear from the podiXm. 3erhaps the best way to start thinking aboXt what $merican representative democracy really means is to recall the 3ledge of $llegiance, which is an oath to the 5epXblic that oXr Àag symboli]es, and in particXlar to an ideal: that oXr nation will strive for liberty and MXstice for all. 3lenty of well meaning people, in the heat of the political moment, sei]e on one or the other of those twin poles to sXpport their agenda ² they insist Xpon liberty or they demand MXstice. The 3ledge, however, makes it clear that these core principles are inseparable. 6till, they are ideals. They’re not sXf¿cient to de¿ne a representative democracy. Indeed, no single featXre does. 2ne of oXr core tenets holds that the people are sovereign ² that we give oXr consent to be governed throXgh regXlar participation in the elections that decide who will represent Xs. <et elections in and of themselves don’t de¿ne oXr repXblic, either there are plenty of coXntries aroXnd the world whose elections are Xsed to distort democracy. 6o the rXle of law is also key, and along with it the notion that everyone oXght to be sXbMect to eTXal MXstice Xnder the law. The separation of powers among the different branches of government creates a balance designed to protect the people from overweening power. The rights gXaranteed by oXr &onstitXtion ensXre that the rights of minorities of all kinds are safe. The big challenge in all this is to set Xp the strXctXres and practices that protect and defend these beliefs. The coXrts, legislative bodies and e[ecXtive branches at the federal, state and local level are an e[ample of this, along with a system of checks and balances that promotes accoXntability and transparency. 6o are the freedoms we often take for granted: Xnder oXr &onstitXtion, we do not pXt to a vote whether to continXe protecting freedom of religion or the right to e[press XnpopXlar sentiments or pXblish news that challenges those in power. :hile representative democracy rests on a core set of principles, it remains a constantly evolving concept. $t the beginning, oXrs was limited: oXr FoXnders began with an inspiring set of beliefs aboXt how a nation oXght to govern itself, bXt they also ignored women and chose to set aside the TXestion of slavery. This was a democracy of white males of a certain age who owned property. Representative democracy by its natXre is always a work in progress we never really get the balance between liberty and MXstice e[actly right. This is worth remembering at the moment, when the problems we confront seem so overwhelming and oXr institXtions are Xnder so mXch strain. The problems they have to resolve ² the oXtsi]ed role of money in politics, e[cessive partisanship, the sheer comple[ity of the policy challenges we face ² are daXnting, bXt that doesn’t mean representative government itself shoXld be called into TXestion. In fact, it is oXr great strength. It protects against arbitrary aXthority, strives for MXstice, hears oXr varied and conÀicting opinions before it acts, and moderates tensions among competing interests. It works in a measXred fashion that tends ² over time ² to encoXrage policymakers to ¿nd consensXs. It is the form of government that, when allowed to work properly, is most likely to lead to wise policy, ¿rmly rooted in the consent of the ordinary people on whose shoXlders it rests. /ee +DPilWRQ iV 'iUecWRU RI Whe &eQWeU RQ &RQJUeVV DW ,QGiDQD 8QiYeUViW\ 'iVWiQJuiVheG 6chRlDU, ,8 6chRRl RI *lRbDl DQG ,QWeUQDWiRQDl 6WuGieV DQG 3URIeVVRU RI 3UDcWice, ,8 6chRRl RI 3ublic DQG (QYiURQPeQWDl $IIDiUV +e wDV D PePbeU RI Whe 8 6 +RuVe RI RepUeVeQWDWiYeV IRU \eDUV )RU iQIRUPDWiRQ DbRuW RuU eGucDWiRQDl UeVRuUceV DQG pURJUDPV, YiViW RuU webViWe DW www ceQWeURQcRQJUeVV RUJ

Practical Money Skills Money Prep for Prospective Parents By Nathaniel Sillin It costs parents an average of $245,340 to raise a child from birth to age 18. 7hat ¿gXre from the 8.6. $gricXltXre 'epartment is MXst one reason why prospective parents are advised to consider parallel ¿nancial planning for child based e[penses and retirement. The key is to start doing it as early as possible ± in a 'ecember 2012 article in The New Republic, adXlts are starting families later than previoXs generations. In short, savings needs for childcare, college and retirement seem on a tighter collision coXrse than ever. )or prospective coXples or single parents, any discXssion of family shoXld begin with the pros and cons of starting a family in terms of personal, lifestyle and career sXccess. In short, the TXestion ³'o we want kids"´ shoXld come before ³&an we afford kids"´ 2nce family goals are settled, it¶s wise to evalXate where cXrrent ¿nances stand. :hile many coXples have a thoroXgh money talk (http://www.practicalmoneyskills. com/moneyTXestions) before they wed, it works for family planning, too. &oXples and single parents will bene¿t from complete ¿nancial transparency before pregnancy, adoption proceedings or fertility treatment starts. 8tili]e TXali¿ed ¿nancial and ta[ advice to ¿t speci¿c circXmstances. &onsXlt trXsted family and friends for referrals to TXali¿ed ¿nancial planning and ta[ e[perts. $lso check cXrrent ta[ rXles for how to handle and potentially dedXct certain costs related to adoption or fertility treatments. 5esearch thoroXghly and bookmark resoXrces online. The I56 website (http://www.irs.gov/IndividXals/3arents) continXally Xpdates its sXmmary of ta[ issXes for parents which can gXide overall planning. 1ew aXthors and bloggers emerge daily on virtXally every aspect of parenting friends, relatives and colleagXes can also provide resoXrces. For prospective parents who are employed, it is a good idea to evalXate bene¿ts well ahead of a pregnancy, fertili]ation procedXres or adoption. 'epending on speci¿c circXmstances, employees shoXld review health and general bene¿ts for roXtine and emergency medical coverage, medical leave policy and e[tras like child care bene¿ts. &oXples shoXld compare their coverage to determine who has the best family coverage overall. 6tart planning for childcare e[penses as soon as possible. FXll or part time childcare services for working parents can be sXrprisingly e[pensive and dif¿cXlt to obtain depending on location. In 2015, the :hite +oXse reported that the average cost of fXll time care for an infant was aboXt $10,000 a year, and a 2014 Boston Globe (https://www.bostonglobe.com) report noted state by state estimates that were signi¿cantly higher. For peace of mind and affordability, it is advisable to tackle the childcare issXe as early as possible. 3rospective parents might also speak with a TXali¿ed ta[ advisor aboXt whether it is more advantageoXs to claim the &hild and 'ependent &are &redit on their ta[es or pay childcare e[penses from a Fle[ible 6pending $ccoXnt at work. /oved ones can also lend ¿nancial assistance to a new family in a variety of ways. $ffordable basics inclXde general parenting advice, as needed babysitting services and sharing coXpons and hand me downs like clothing, toys and Xnneeded child related eTXipment in good condition. For those willing to lend ¿nancial sXpport, sXch options might inclXde a &overdell (dXcation 6avings $ccoXnt, 52 college savings plan or a gift of cash or assets to the child sXbMect to I56 rXles. $lso, anyone can directly pay medical e[penses in fXll for someone they do not claim as a dependent Xnder certain circXmstances. If friends or family members offer ¿nancial help, encoXrage them to evalXate options with TXali¿ed ¿nancial and ta[ e[perts. Finally, prospective parents shoXld become dedicated bargain hXnters and savers with an eTXal focXs on handling childcare e[penses and sXpporting retirement goals. Both ¿nancial goals are eTXally important. Bottom line: It pays to plan early for a family. (valXate yoXr ¿nances, reach oXt to friends and family for advice and get help from TXali¿ed e[perts if yoX need it.

Anti-fracking committee makes progress on ballot initiative

$nnoXncing that it has reached 40 percent of the signatXres needed to place a fracking ban on the 2016 ballot, the &ommittee to Ban Fracking in 0ichigan, said it is doing mXch better than a similar attempt it made in 2013. ³:e are doing mXch better than oXr efforts in 2013 becaXse people know more aboXt the dangers of fracking and frack wastes now,´ said /X$nne .o]ma, campaign director for the grassroots ballot initiative. The groXp needs 252,523 valid signatXres by 1ov. 10 to TXalify and, .o]ma said, additional volXnteers can ensXre that it happens. ³(veryone who wants to see this on the ballot needs to get involved in collecting signatXres right away,´ .o]ma said. ³:e are not asking for a big commitment, MXst two or three days. If all people who care aboXt this issXe act now and take the time oXt of their bXsy schedXles to do this, we’ll make it. ³$ large team is actively getting signatXres already, bXt we need more volXnteers in these last two months of the campaign to make sXre it will happen. 0ost ballot initiatives bring in the bXlk of their signatXres in the last part of the campaign and that’s what we intend to do.´ .o]ma directs volXnteers to click on the volXnteer tab at the campaign’s website, /etsBanFracking.org.´ 9olXnteers began collecting signatXres 0ay 22 for a si[ month period to TXalify for the 2016 ballot. To date, 100,000 signatXres have been obtained. The deadline to mail petitions to the committee is 1ov. 10. Fracking and the disposal of wastes from hori]ontal hydraXlic fractXring continXe in the state, said the committee, citing the 0ichigan 'epartment of (nvironmental 4Xality’s permitting of 10 more hori]ontal wells in Grand Traverse, 0anistee and &rawford coXnties in 2015. $ ha]ardoXs waste processing facility in 'etroit, which takes 40 percent of its wastes from oXt of state, inclXding some from oil and gas operations, is likely to be approved by '(4 to e[pand its operations ten fold. The 'eWURiW )Uee 3UeVV, said the committee, cited 8.6. (cology’s admission that liTXid waste treated by the facility is going into the 'etroit :ater and 6ewer 'epartment system, which provides water to the entire metro 'etroit area. The ballot initiative woXld prevent sXch wells and frack waste processing and disposal. In 0ay, a poll by 3Xblic 3olicy 3olling indicated that 55 percent of 0ichigan voters woXld vote yes to sXpport the committee’s ballot proposal to ban fracking and frack wastes statewide, change the cXrrent law that reTXires the state to foster the gas and oil indXstry, pXt in its place a reTXirement that hXman health and the environment be protected dXring oil and gas development, and to give Michigan residents the right to sXe if the fracking indXstry violates the ban. 2nly 32 percent oppose the measXre, and 12 percent are not sXre. 6i[ty foXr percent of those polled by 333, sXpport a ban on frack wastes being disposed of in Michigan, inclXding frack wastes prodXced in other states. &Xrrently, the committee charges, frack wastes, inclXding radioactive drill cXttings, mXd and slXdge and millions of gallons of ÀXids containing to[ic chemicals, are disposed of in Michigan land¿lls, inMection wells and at Michigan gas drilling sites. The &ommittee to Ban Fracking in Michigan is a ballot TXestion committee registered with the 6tate of Michigan BXreaX of (lections. The committee’s website is www. LetsBanFracking.org.

Girl’s 7th-8th Grade Eastside Soccer splits doubleheader with Stockbridge

President Jayni Navarro makes SLS buttons on our new button maker!

Students Leading Students support each other on making good choices

Welcome back to the new school year for 2015-16! Our Students Leading Students group will continue to support each other in making good choices at Fowlerville High School this year. Large group meetings are held at least once a month, while the SLS Board meets at an alternate time. There is typically one activity a month that supports our Student Leadership Services of Michigan mission. Students work to keep the following promises to themselves and the group: “I will not participate in self-defeating behaviors that could damage who I and who I want to be. – I will make appropriate decisions when driving or riding in a car. - I will help and support my friends to do the same.� Active members participate in at least two SLS activities and attend two group meetings each semester. Some of our activities have included attending the State Leadership Conference, Red Ribbon Week, earning a grant through Ford’s Strive for a Safer Drive campaign, Donut Drink/ Donut Drive!, driving safety and awareness for new drivers, contributing to the annual Cocoa and Cram for freshmen, Buckle Up Valentine, DNT TX N DRV bumper stickers, and the Annual FHS Talent Show coming in November. If your teen has an interest in supporting safe driving, antibullying, and making good decisions, please direct them to our Advisor at FHS, Theresa Pushies, or any of these board members: Jayni Navarro, Rachel Mark, Brandon Nachtigal, Jaz Reynolds, Jacob Navarro, and Brian Pushies.

Second Annual Wags “nâ€? Whiskers’ Fundraising Gala being held on Oct. 3 The Friends of the Livingston County Animal Shelter are holding their special fundraiser on Saturday, October rd, from 6 to 10 p.m. This great night-out will have a fabulous catered dinner, many silent auction items, live music, a cash bar, rafĂ€es, and so much more! The event will take place at the Johnson Center, Cleary University, 750 Cleary Drive, Howell. The ticket cost is $50 per person; you may order tickets visiting the website @ www.friendsoĂ€cas.org or calling Beth at ( 52) 22 -9769. All proceeds of this evening go to beneÂżt the local animals. The Friends passionately support all in-custody animals at the County Animal Shelter by bestowing extra attention and care through cleaning the cages, walking the dogs, and interacting with the many cats and kittens. They organize and participate in adoption events, and provide for special medical needs (and equipment) that makes so much difference in the quality of the animals’ lives. These enthusiasts also do inhome foster care for animals to nurture and prepare them for adoption and to open up extra space when the Control Shelter is at capacity. The Friends are always looking for volunteers to welcome to their team. You are invited to attend the October function for more information, or even call the Livingston County Animal Control at 517-5 6-215 to see how you may Âżnd a “volunteer spotâ€? that best Âżts your schedule.

By Coach Peter LeMieux On a wet and blustery Saturday, Sept. 19, the Fowlerville 7th and 8th grade girls soccer team split a doubleheader with Stockbridge. Fowlerville lost the ¿rst game - in a tough well-fought contest. Two penalty kicks scored by Stockbridge spelled the difference. Fowlerville won the second match -2. This is the ¿rst victory over Stockbridge in several years for this team. Lindsay LeMieux made her team debut and opened the scoring in the ¿rst game with a top shelf left-footed shot from a clean cross by Lilly Smith. Lindsay contributed on defense throughout the game with her tenacious play. Lilly Smith scored goals and also had 2 assists. Her deep penetration into Stockbridge territory led wave after wave of Fowlerville attacks. Her play led to countless scoring opportunities that Fowlerville was unable to convert. Jenna Rigotti was one of our newest but also our unluckiest Gladiators as her shots were turned away by strong saves. Several shots went wide by a small margin. Jenna gave Stockbridge players ¿ts throughout both games due to her speed and defensive pressure. Gwen Cox was a great contributor at fullback as her defensive pressure frequently disrupted the Stockbridge attack. Gwen was solid in goal and made solid passes to begin the Fowlerville attack. Kaitlyn Jackson showed great improvement with her performance in both games and showed great heart on defense. Zoey Yourgens made her debut on the team. She showed tenacious defense throughout both contests. In one of many battles for possession she fearlessly took on a much larger opponent and won the ball. If she didn’t win the ball she harassed the Stockbridge player mercilessly. Miya Fillinger contributed to the scoring with a smooth left footed shot from an assist by Lilly Smith. Miya demonstrated deft ball handling during each contest. She had several great passes that led the Fowlerville attack. Kailene LeMieux was a force in goal. She made good decisions with her distribution from the back. More often than not she put the ball in the right place at the right time. Kailene had a dozen saves and many highlight reel moments when stiÀing Stockbridge breakaways. When on defense she single handedly kept Stockbridge players off the ball until she broke the pressure with a solid pass. Emily Lasure demonstrated improved play with her defensive effort over both games. Emily took on any Stockbridge player with the ball. She dished out more bruises than she received. Jayci Clark demonstrated her previous experience from the Fowlerville CASL team and contributed to the scoring with a calm tap in from a Lilly Smith cross. Jayci put several shots on goal during both contests She consistently put herself at the right place at the right time during the Fowlerville attack. She kept up great pressure on the Stockbridge defenders deep in their territory. This team had a solid performance. They created countless scoring opportunities throughout both games. I am proud of how the team took lessons from practice and applied them during both games. Fowlerville fought through fatigue in the second game and came away with a win. Our next contest was Saturday morning, Sept. 26, at 9:00 at the Community Park. Fowlerville was defending our home turf as we faced a ¿red up Stockbridge team looking for revenge.

Michigan House Report By Dr. Hank Vaupel 47nd District , am pleased to announce the winners of our Summer Reading Contest. Kameron Thomas Charles Du)ort and (verett Wright will join me at the Capitol this fall for a day in the life of a state representative. We received over 30 entries from children who read at least 10 books over their summer break to be eligible for the drawing. ,’m pleased by the success of the contest and very much look forward to meeting these scholarly children ne[t week. *** This week , introduced a bill to update training for medical ¿rst responders related to drug overdose victims. 8nder this legislation training for paramedics and medical ¿rst responders must include treatment and resuscitation techniques for heroin and opioid overdose patients. Methods for assisting a potential drug overdose patient are different than for medical issues such as heart attacks. ,t is my belief that this bill will help save lives. *** )all is upon us Last week Thursday we enjoyed the )armers Market on the Capitol lawn. , was pleased to see the successful harvest that many farmers brought in this year. %e on the lookout for the beautiful color change in the trees across 3ure Michigan. Many wonderful Michigan )all Color Tours have been mapped out and are available at www. michigan.org/fall-color-tours. , hope you’ll ¿nd time to enjoy a route that suits you *** Road repair legislation is still on our radar in the Michigan Legislature.

Ruptured gas line forces residents to leave their homes for several hours $ gas line that was ruptured on 1orth Hibbard Street in )owlerville forced nearby residents to leave their homes for several hours last week. TrafÂżc on *rand River was also detoured away from this area. The incident occurred at about 4:17 p.m. last Monday Sept. 19 when the construction crew working on the 1orth Hibbard Street ,mprovement 3roject struck the two-inch line while doing e[cavation work causing the leak. 3art of the project includes installing new underground water and sanitary sewer lines. Reportedly the gas line was not properly marked on the prints being used by the crew. The )owlerville District )ire Department and the )owlerville 3olice Department quickly arrived at the site and shut down *rand River a block on either side of Hibbard Street and began notifying residents living near the area. Consumers (nergy who had a man on site shortly after getting the call discontinued gas service to about 70 residences in the area as safety precaution. Several residents near the ruptured line also left their homes. $ work crew from

Consumers arrived a couple of hours afterwards and began to repair the line. Shortly before 11 p.m. the work was Âżnished with residents returning to their homes and trafÂżc allowed to resume on this section of *rand River.

Letter to the Editor:

,n the eight hundredth anniversary year of Magna Carta Kim Davis the county clerk from Kentucky has taken the right stand for her conscience and for the rule of law. The recent Supreme Court ruling allowing same-se[ unions to be treated the same as marriage was not for the peace of our country but to further the effects of the se[ual revolution. This revolution says in part that morality cannot be legislated and any se[ between consenting adults should be legal. The two view points on the recent ruling will never be able to ¿nd a middle ground because the thinking of each side starts at a different point therefore each follows to a different conclusion. The one side treats this as a moral issue of right and wrong. Se[ outside of a one-man one-woman marriage is the moral sin of adultery. The Ten Commandments put that sin in the same list as other moral problems: murder theft and lying under oath. The other side treats same se[-marriage as a civil right. ,n that a person cannot help what he/she is each must be allowed equal protection under the law. Marriage has to be given to whoever wants it. Laws against rape adultery fornication sodomy homose[ual activity bestiality and other moral sins have been placed on law books by legislative bodies in many places at many times. Rarely are they removed by appropriate legislative means. This ruling allowing same se[ unions to be covered under the term of marriage and thereby receiving the same status of those who are married was issued this summer by the Supreme Court. The High Court has no written authority in the Constitution to make a law to declare a new right or to change the long-standing de¿nition of a word. (They are completely without power to change human nature or the laws of nature.) (ight hundred years ago in the year 1215 Magna Carta was signed by the (nglish King asserting that even the King is under the law. The Supreme Court tarnished its reputation by going against this time honored principle of free people. ,n this ³*ay Marriage´ ruling they have taken the seat of King/ Lawgiver hoping that nobody would notice or object. Kim Davis is right to follow her ¿rst amendment right of religious conscience and to reject the unauthori]ed decree written by the majority of the Supreme Court. Sincerely Doug Hel]erman

Page 26 – Fowlerville News & Views – Sunday, September 27, 2015 and offering the calendar,” said Wilson. “This is very unique,” added Dillingham. “For a number of years we felt there was a need for more collaboration and to better connect the different community entities. With the Strategic Planning Committee and with the start of this new website, that effort is blossoming. The Community Calendar allows groups--be it the schools or library or Rotary--to list their meetings, activities, fundraisers, and special events, and it allows people a convenient on-line site to ¿nd out what’s going on in our community.”§

Fowlerville Community Calendar & new Community Website now in use A Fowlerville Community Website and Calendar are now in use. The Community Website is at: www. fowlervillecommunity.com and the Calendar is at: www. dybacal.com/fowlerville. A link to the Calendar is also available on the Website. These on-line resources are under the auspices of the Fowlerville Downtown Development Authority (DDA), but are the result of a collaborative effort by the Strategic Planning Committee made up of community leaders. “This is the product of the DDA’s Strategic Planning Committee with the goal of helping promote our community,” said Fred Dillingham, president of the Livingston Business Development Associates, the ¿rm that serves as the DDA’s administrator and economic development consultant. “Our local governments have websites that publish the minutes, legal notices, and other information, but there has not really been a community-based website that people can go to and learn about all of the wonderful events and activities going on,” Dillingham pointed out. Mark Wilson, pastor of Fowlerville United Brethren Church and chair of the Strategic Planning Committee, said a main purpose of the group is “to ¿nd ways to strategically bring various community members together—local government, businesses, the schools, churches, the fair, the Livingston Centre Historic Society, the Farmers’ Market, Rotary, and other organizations. This new web site has all sorts of connection points that link it to websites that already exist.” Wilson said that the web site also seeks “to put forth Fowlerville in a positive manner,” spotlighting all of the amenities and opportunities offered here. “We want to showcase how attractive our community is, the quality of life it offers, for people thinking of moving here,” he said. “We also want to encourage people come here for an event, to dine, or shop. “We’re also using the site to promote volunteerism,” he added. Dawn Hatcher, owner of Flooring Finesse by Design, and Jennifer Balyeat, CFO of Livingston Business Development Associates, (both members of the committee) researched the project and then put together the web site, while the school

The main headings on the Home Page are: About the Ville (which gives an overview of the community), Events, Fowlerville Community Schools, Ville Amenities (which gives an overview the types of businesses and services available here), Churches, Community Calendar (a listing of upcoming events and meetings), and Contact Information. Plans are to compile a listing of all the area businesses and services. The site includes numerous photos that highlight different community offerings, including the Christmas in the Ville Parade, Farmers Market, the Livingston Centre Historic Village, the Community Park’s Rotary Mile, the Veterans Memorial at the Rotary Centennial Park, the fair, Dawn Patrol, and the schools. “There is a lot of excitement about launching this new site for 34 years. “I started out as a playground aide at Parkers Corners School when my oldest son started attending school there,” she said. “Michael is now 38, while my other son, Mark, is 36. I also helped out in the lunchroom.” From 1983 thru 1989 she drove school buses, starting off as a substitute and then assuming a regular route. For two years, from 1998-2000, she was a bus aide for a special needs student and in 2005 began work as a noontime supervisor in the lunchroom and playground. She did that on a regular basis until becoming a crossing guard. In between those school jobs, Ann worked several years at Fowlerville Lumber, both at the local store and when the company had a door and window outlet in Okemos. Ann, who was born in 1935, grew up in a suburb of London. For a couple of years, at the start of World War II, she and her sister lived in Holbeton, a town located near Plymouth and the coast. “When the Germans started bombing London, Churchill said that ‘we need to save the future of our country’ and ordered the evacuation of children from the city to the countryside,” she said. “The teachers also left so they could teach us at the schools. “We could carry whatever we needed in one bag,” Ann recalled. “My older sister Joan and I took the train to Plymouth. From there we took a bus to Holberton. All of us got out at the village square and the residents came there and picked who they wanted. My sister and I were very blessed, we went to live with a wonderful family, the Pemwill’s. They owned the store in town. My mother didn’t ¿nd out where we were at until two days later.” Ann said that she and her sister remained there for a couple of years, but that they remained friends with the family. “The daughter, Edyth Riley, became my close friend,” Ann noted. “Edyth passed away a couple of years ago at the age of 93, the last member of the family who was still alive.” As a young woman, Ann returned to that small town to live.

rossing Guard C l oo ch S l el d ar cC M Ann A familiar and welcome face for Fowlerville kids walking to school is Ann McCardell, the crossing guard at East Grand River and Hibbard Street. (With the current construction project having closed part of that street, Ann is now located a block to the west at East Grand River and Collins Street.) “I work at the crossing from 7 to 9 a.m. and 2 to 4 p.m., although I usually arrive early,” Ann said. “I love the kids. They’re always the same; if you speak to them, they’ll speak to you. I ask them how their school day was.” Ann said that fewer and fewer kids are walking to school. “The parents drive them. I have some junior high kids and a couple of high schoolers who cross here, but mostly elementary students. They’re a lot of fun.” Ann carries a red and white STOP Sign and wears a yellow and black reÀective vest. When a lone student or group of students arrives at the corner, she ventures out into Grand River to stop the oncoming traf¿c. Once she’s sure it’s safe, she motions for the students to proceed across the street. She also spends a lot of time waving to motorists stopped at the intersection or passing by, many of them moms who are taking or have taken their children to school. She’s at her post regardless of the weather. Asked which harsh condition is her least favorite--cold, rain, snow, or heat—Ann said, “The heat. I’ve gotten used to Michigan winters.” Along with performing this job (which she started doing in 2010), Ann also helps in the lunchroom at Smith Elementary when needed and takes tickets at the school’s sports events. She has worked for the school off and on

“I had a job in a bank and worked in the British Airways’ sports club as a barmaid during the evening,” she recalled. “There was an American airman who stopped by. In fact he was the only American who came to the club. He was stationed at a nearby air force base.” Ann ended up marrying the fellow, Mack McCardell, who hailed from Hazel Park, Michigan. The couple lived in Georgia, after Mac was transferred from England. Then, after Mack retired from the military, they moved to Michigan. “We stayed with his folks for a short time. When he secured a job in Lansing, we began looking for a home in the area. A real estate agent in Williamston took us to a place at the corner of Iosco and Kane Roads, south of Fowlerville. We bought it.” After arriving in this area, Ann said that she worked for the Kern Road Veterinary Clinic before taking a part-time job at Parkers Corners School.

Fowlerville Varsity Boys Soccer drops two matches, then wins four in a row

Wedding reception of local couple hosted & catered by Curtis Grocery

While there’s nothing unusual about newlyweds holding their party under a rented tent and having the event catered, a reception held in Downtown Fowlerville on Saturday, Sept. 19, could be called that. For the ¿rst-time in its long history, Curtis Grocery hosted and catered a wedding celebration. It was done for a local couple, Elaine Moen and Ray Hellwege. The two had known each other in the past when Ray worked with Elaine’s ¿rst husband George. Earlier this year they bumped into each other while shopping at Curtis Grocery. They exchanged pleasantries and learned that each of them had lost their spouses. They started visiting, then dating, and became engaged. In honor of their having met at the grocery store and due to their plans to be married at the neighboring First Baptist Church, the couple asked Craig and Kate Curtis if a tent could be put up next to the store, with the reception held there. In addition, the store would provide the food and refreshments. The Curtises agreed, and the ensuing event went off splendidly with nearly 200 guests enjoying the meal, the music, and the happy occasion. Congratulations to the happy couple!

17th. Fowlerville put the pressure on early, getting out to a 3-0 halftime lead. Edwards and LeMieux continued their scoring ways, each tallying a goal. Edwards also had 2 assists, one on a Kyle Gross goal. The second half saw the Glads continue strong, with Edwards netting 2 more (hat trick), while Taylor and Montrose each added one of their own. LeMieux stayed hot, adding 2 assists. Jarvis had 3 saves in net, while Jesse Bonville made a cameo appearance at keeper. Fowlerville won its fourth match in a row, a 2-0 victory over Eaton Rapids, on Sept. 22. Cory Lemieux gave the Glads a 1-0 lead on an assist from Kyle Gross, giving the local spikers the momentum. This held until late in the second half when Lemieux found Jack Paulsen to seal the win for Fowlerville. The defense was steadfast as it held the Greyhounds top players in check, and Jarvis got the shutout in net making 3 saves. The Glads now boast a 6-4-1 overall record and are 2-0 in league play.

The Fowlerville Boys’ Soccer Team went to Corunna earlier this month and lost a heartbreaker 2-1. After being down 1-0 at half, the Glads came back to tie the game at 1 on a Riley Swails goal and Kyle Gross assist (indirect kick), despite being down a man because of a red card. Fowlerville dominated possession, but let up a late goal in the loss. Jacob Jarvis had 6 saves in net. The Glads then traveled to Dewitt to take on a talented Panthers squad. Despite the 4-0 loss, the boys gave effort and played hard. Even though they were outshot, Fowlerville had their chances, including good looks from Bailey Edwards, Niko Montrose, and Bastien Taylor. Jarvis had 15 saves in a solid game in net. The tough matches continued as Fowlerville hosted Lansing Eastern on Sept. 10, winning the match 3-0. The Glads came out strong and possessed the ball as well as playing physically. This led to a Niko Montrose goal on a Kyle Briggs assist to put the home team up 1-0. Cory LeMieux quickly followed that up with an unassisted goal, giving the Glads a 2-0 lead at half. LeMieux found Chase East in the second half for a goal, rounding out the scoring.
