Northaven celebrates completion of wall restoration project
By Amy Neal Something old is new again in Northaven. On Sept. 6, residents celebrated the restoration of the neighborhood’s entrance walls at the intersection of 65th Street, Flora Avenue and Northaven Drive with friends and city officials. It was a project two years in the making after the Northaven Neighborhood Group was formed with the help of the city of Gladstone and residents identified repairing the brick structures welcoming people to the neighborhood as a top priority. “Some of our residents have been looking daily at these walls since the 1950s … their welcome home to Northaven. Seeing them fall into a state of disrepair, vandalized and disassembled before their eyes really hurt,” wrote Northaven

A peek at the future of teaching about the past Museum expected to open at Atkins-Johnson Farm in 2013 By Amy Neal The Atkins-Johnson Farm in Gladstone was full of activity this past Saturday, Sept. 8, with the Big Shoal Country Fair. In the spring, city officials and Friends of the Atkins-Johnson Farm members expect the site to be bustling with activity on a regular basis with the opening of a museum and education center. The farmhouse has been undergoing renovations to this end, and museum manager Erica White said when the museum is complete, it will include “truth windows” to allow visitors to peek into the farmhouse’s past. One such window will show the stone foundation beneath the floor. The museum won’t necessarily be about the Atkins or the Johnsons, who owned the property for about 150 of its 188 years, White said. Instead it will tell the story of the Missouri farm family. Sharon Smith is a charter member and past president of the Friends of the Atkins-Johnson Farm. Her g reat-g reat-g randfat her, Jacob Atkins, grew up on the farm. She also said establishing a museum on farm site was not an effort for familial recognition. “It’s not about the house. It’s about Missouri farming, and we just happened to have a 260-acre farm here,” she said, adding that

Shelly MacGee of Expresso ur Self serves customers at the Big Shoal Country Fair on Saturday, Sept. 8. The coffee shop on wheels has been a regular at the Gladstone Farmers Market this summer. Owner MacGee and operator Ashley Kincheloe, MacGee’s daughter, plan to open a brickand-mortar coffee shop at the corner of Northeast 70th and Cherry streets at the end of the year. “We’re ready to see people having a good time and serve them good food and coffee,” MacGee said. They serve coffee drinks, teas, smoothies, breakfast and lunch dishes, and pastries.
Restrooms are under construction at the Atkins-Johnson Farm in preparation for the farmhouse’s opening as a museum. not all of that land was city-owned. At one time, the property was the focal point of activity for this portion of Clay County, Smith said. It was the site of a livery stable, a blacksmith shop, tent revivals and countless other community activities. “This part over here is where it was happening,” she said. The ongoing restoration is being done with the hopes the farm will again be a destination drawing crowds to Gladstone for entertainment and education.
Melinda Mehaffy, director of economic development for Gladstone, said the farm museum would give local educators an opportunity to show students what a typical Missouri farm would have looked like during the time when the Gladstone farm was operational, as well as the evolution of the farm family. “Everything you see here was built by a farm family for a farm use — except the bathrooms,” Mehaffy said. Modern restroom facilities are under construction between the farmhouse and the parking lot.
Children’s crafts included making salt dough, as well as making paper hand puppets and fabric dolls. Once the museum opens, it will fill a gap in the city’s tourism scene. Annual events like Bluesfest and Gladfest bring visitors to town once a year, but a local museum operating year-round will
give people a continual reason to come to — or stay in — town. And the more time people spend in Gladstone, the more they contribute the local economy by eating and shopping here.

News in Brief
Dreamy turnout for summer reading More than 62,000 children and teens took up Mid-Continent Public Library’s challenge to “Dream Big — Read” this summer. A total of 145,510 books and prizes were distributed to listeners, readers and participants in the Group Program, and 17,059 Library Bucks were earned by teens in the Summer Reading Program. The teen program, Own the Night, took on a new life this year as teens were encouraged not just to read, but to write book reviews to earn Library Bucks. The bucks could be used to purchase books, prizes and Library services, including replacement cards, free prints and copies, and fines. As an added bonus, five teens were randomly drawn to receive a free Netbook from the library system. Two winners were from Northland branches: Chris Hope, Liberty, and Naomi Maresch, North Oak. Systemwide participation and reading totals were: • Listeners, ages birth to 6 years — 9,224 registrants, 33,816 books listened to; • Readers, ages 6 and older — 9,330 registrants, 4,948,273 minutes read; • Teens — 4,058 registrants, 27,107 book reviews; • Group Program — 40,351 registrants; 40,381 books.
Arvest, Harvesters set sights on 1 million meals Arvest Bank has kicked off a two-month, bankwide effort to provide at least 1 million meals to those in need. For the second year in a row, Arvest Bank’s 1 Million Meals campaign challenges bank associates, customers and communities to help fight hunger in the 90 communities the bank serves. Last year, Arvest Bank branches, associates, customers and communities provided more than 1.2 million meals. In Greater Kansas City, Arvest is partnering with Harvesters—The Community Food Network for this initiative. Harvesters will receive the nonperishable food and monetary donations made to Arvest Bank branches in the area, including Northland branches at 5600 N. Broadway in Gladstone and 9221 N. Oak Trafficway in Kansas City. “Harvesters is proud to again partner with Arvest Bank to feed hungry children, families and seniors in our community,” said Harvesters President and CEO Karen Haren. “The food and funds donated during this drive will help make it possible for the nonprofit agencies in our network to provide food and hope to 66,000 people each week.” Community members can help support Harvesters by dropping off a monetary donation or nonperishable food items at any Arvest Bank branch during the initiative. Monetary donations can also be made online by visiting www.arvestbank.harvesters.org or by phone at (866) 952-9523. Every dollar raised through 1 Million Meals provides the equivalent of five meals for local, hungry families.
The 2012 counting period ran from 6 p.m., Friday, Aug. 31, through 11:59 p.m., Monday, Sept. 3, 2012. During this time, the patrol investigated 201 traffic crashes, which included 144 injuries and four of the six fatalities. The St. Louis Police Department and Cuba Police Department each investigated one fatality. Troopers made 147 arrests for driving while intoxicated in 2012, compared to 175 arrests last year. In 2011, troopers investigated 259 crashes, which included 135 injuries and nine of the 13 fatalities. There were no boating fatalities over the 2012 Labor Day holiday.
September is National Preparedness Month The best time to plan for a disaster is now, before it happens. The Metropolitan Emergency Managers Committee and the Mid-America Regional Council will join other organizations around the nation to promote the ninth annual National Preparedness Month this September. The Federal Emergency Management Agency sponsors National Preparedness Month as a time for all Americans to make sure they are prepared for disasters or emergencies in their homes, businesses and communities. Families, individuals, businesses, and public and private groups and organizations can join the National Preparedness Month Coalition by visiting www.Ready. gov and clicking on the “Pledge to Prepare” link. The goal for registered coalition members in 2012 is 12,000. Locally, the MEMC uses its preparedness website, www.PrepareMetroKC.org , to encourage residents to make an emergency plan, create a supply kit and stay informed. Earlier this year, the committee produced a series of videos using two humorous characters, “Disaster” and “Preparedness,” to share important information about key steps people should take to be prepared for emergencies. This awardwinning video series is available online at www.YouTube.com/PrepareMetroKC.

NORTHAVEN: Project preserves neighborhood identity, pride Continued from Page A1 Neighborhood Group President Bob Stover in a recent issue of the neighborhood newsletter. “We owed it to these long time residents, taxpayers and friends to restore the walls to their original state.” The project was paid for through fundraising and a Gladstone Neighborhood Commission Communit y Improvement Grant, the city’s public information coordinator, Richard King, said. Don Pind of Pind Masonry Co. was the contractor who put the walls back together using several bricks from the original structures that residents had been saving in their garages. “You have preserved the identity of Northaven,” Mayor Carol Suter told the group at the dedication. “You have preserved the history of a neighborhood.” Neighborhood residents were pleased with the results. “Now it doesn’t feel like it’s such a bad place to come back here,” said Judee Porter, who has lived in Northaven for several decades.
Kay Bollinger is another longtime Northaven resident. “I didn’t realize how poor they looked until they were fixed,” Bollinger said. A nge l a Mc C l a n a han, who has lived in Northaven for five years, said projects like the wall restoration and repainting fire hydrants earlier in the summer were vital to maintaining property values in the neighborhood. “That’s what tears neighborhoods down. When things start falling apart, people care less about properties,” she said. “(The wall restoration) adds to the sense that you live somewhere worth living in.” Suter also emphasized that the benefits of the restoration project would extend beyond the Northaven neighborhood because quality housing and quality neighborhoods attract residents and businesses to a community. Fundraisers for the wall project included bake sales, chili suppers and going door to door seeking donations. The neighborhood group will host its next chili supper in

Public Health Matters
Healthy communities require continual care Editor’s note: This is the second in a series of occasional columns from the Clay County Public Health Center on public health and community wellness. Next month’s column will address ways the Clay County Public Health Center and local residents’ involvement affects public health in Gladstone. Last month we talked about the difference between personal health care given by health care providers and the community prevention approach used by Clay County Public Health Center. Although both work together to keep people healthy, they are distinctly different in their approach. You and your personal health care provider are responsible together for your individual health. You and your local public health department have a lead role in maintaining and improving community health for the entire population, which in turn affects your individual health. Both are important and both are part of the local public health system. This month we’ll begin to explore how the Clay County Public Health Center and the local public health system impact every resident of Gladstone on a daily basis. Our website — www. clayhealth.com — has a great deal of helpful information about our programs and services. You can easily go from one program to another to learn how each can impact you and your community. You will see the common themes of health promotion, prevention and protection throughout every service.
from spreading to those who may be unable to receive those shots. We call this “herd immunity.” This means we keep as many people as possible protected so that those unable to get vaccinated will have less of a chance of getting sick. By keeping your immunizations up to date, you are doing your part to keep the entire community healthy.
Health inspections and education
Our environmental health programs also help protect against food-borne and waterborne disease. Environmental health specialists routinely inspect businesses that serve food to the public. People in the food business must comply with county health ordinances and regulations. Staff regularly monitor those businesses to help ensure you have a safe place to eat and you don’t have to worry about getting sick from eating there. But it’s not just about inspections. Our staff also provide ongoing education on-site as well as through classes offered at the health center throughout the year. Classes are available in English, Chinese and Spanish. Business owners work very hard every day to make sure that they put a quality product out there for you. We work together with them for your benefit.
A MESSAGE FROM CLAY COUNTY PUBLIC HEALTH CENTER
Although both work together to keep people healthy, they are distinctly different in their approach. You and your personal health care provider are responsible together for your individual health. You and your local public health department have a lead role in maintaining and improving community health for the entire population, which in turn affects your individual health.
Immunizations
One of the major roles of public health is to help prevent the spread of communicable disease. Clay County Public Health Center offers child and adult vaccinations to protect us and your community from diseases that once were the leading causes of death and disability. Diseases like polio, measles, and mumps no longer cause the widespread problems they once did, but they are still prevalent in other countries today. Being up to date on immunizations allows children in Gladstone to be safe and healthy and focus on learning in school. It is important to know that keeping children and adults vaccinated helps to keep disease
Healthy communities
So why do public health services matter to Gladstone? Imagine if they weren’t in place. Children and adults would then be at a higher risk for disease. Children wouldn’t be in school as often where they could learn. Adults wouldn’t be at work, and businesses would be less productive. Imagine the impact on the economy of Gladstone if people were unhealthy. Tourism would also suffer if visitors knew the food wasn’t safe and the risk for getting sick from visiting there was much higher. A public health system must be in place in every community. The system must involve everyone doing their part to make Gladstone a great place to live, work and play. Gary Zaborac is the director of the Clay County Public Health Center, located at 800 Haines Drive in Liberty. Contact the center at 595-4200 or find out more at www.clayhealth.com.
Capitol Perspectives
Politicians sometimes pay the price of candor The recent Todd Akin controversy has reminded me of other times that Missouri politicians have gotten into trouble for misspeaking — or, maybe, for saying what they truly believed, but subsequently claimed were mistakes in language. As journalists, we appreciate those sources who speak to us with unrestrained candor. But we sometimes extract a heavy price for the candor we seek. That lesson was demonstrated in the early 1980s shortly after the discovery that the eastern Missouri town of Times Beach had been contaminated by dioxin in waste oil sprayed on the town’s unpaved roads to keep down dust. The contamination was so high and dangerous that residents were forced to abandon their homes. There were immediate proposals for government assistance to Times Beach residents for their losses. I chatted about that with the Senate Appropriations Committee chair, St. Louis County’s Ed Dirck. It was a relaxed, laid-back conversation in which there was no immediate story objective. That quickly changed when Dirck answered a casual, almost philosophical question of why government should bail out the Times Beach folks when there is no expectation for government to pay a family that lost its home to fire and chose not to have fire insurance. Dirck immediately responded that the Times Beach homeowners should not be compensated. Besides, he said, it was their own fault because it was their city that agreed to a cheap contract for oiling their roads. His comments became a major story and triggered a torrent of criticism that Dirck was being heartless. Times Beach was a lowerincome community. Some residents faced horrid economic losses without government assistance. Beyond the losses, they were going to have to deal for years with questions about the long-term health effects for their families. To his credit, Dirck never blamed me. He said it and, at least at the time, believed what he said. But, politically, if not governmentally, it was a stupid thing to say. A similar situation arises when a public official says something that we in the media are pretty sure the official did not intend to say. Do we report it? Should we ask, “did you really mean that?” The value in asking a follow-up question as to whether a politician really meant what he or she said was demonstrated by Bob Holden on the day he became governor in 2001. Talking with reporters immediately after his inauguration, Holden said that the very

Of course, we cannot do that in our profession. next day he was going to meet with the head of American Airlines that was negotiating a takeover of St. Louis-based TWA. Holden’s announcement was big news. TWA was facing bankruptcy and its takeover by a non-Missouri airline raised major concerns about what level of service would remain at the St. Louis airport. But Holden’s statement struck me as a bit odd. The sale was about to be made. I was sure the top airline executives had more pressing matters than meeting with a governor. So, shortly after, I asked Holden if he really planned to spend his first full day as governor out of his office. Well, no, Holden said, that’s not what he meant.

Northlanders who help residents combat mental illness were featured Aug. 27 at the Tri-County Mental Health Services 22nd annual Meeting and Phoenix Gala VII. While the night was designed to praise those who have served the community, Tri-County came in for honors, too. Among the evening’s speakers was Mark Stringer, Missouri Department of Mental Health director of comprehensive psychiatric services and director of alcohol and drug abuse. Stringer cited several TriCounty’s programs that have achieved state and even national recognition. “Tri- Count y Mental Health is not a leader, but the leader in the state of Missouri and much of the country,” he said. “In substance abuse prevention, vocational services and other areas, TriCounty really does show the way.” Held at the Hilton Kansas City Airport Hotel, the Phoenix Gala’s recognition of community leaders was an annual highlight. Tom Brown was presented the Phoenix Award Winner for Community Achievement. Terry Edwards was named Outstanding and Retiring Public Official, while Christal Milligan was named Prevention Volunteer of the Year and Eric Zahnd Prevention Partner of the Year. Steve Daily was recognized as Provider of the Year, Roger Jones was Outstanding Consumer of the Year, and Laura Bruce earned Outstanding Employee of the Year. Brown earned the Phoenix Community Achievement Award through a wide range of community and, especially, health related volunteer services. Chief of staff for Congressman Sam Graves, Brown is a former board member of Tri-County and longtime chair of Saint Luke’s Northland Hospital. He is also a Northland representative on the Saint Luke’s Plaza Hospital, Saint Luke’s College and the American Hospital Association Committee on Governance. The Missouri Hospital Association awarded Tom its MHA Trustee Leadership Award in 2010. His has served as chair of SafeHaven, sec-

omeowners who have had prior issues with mold know just how pesky a mold problem can be. When mold spores land on surfaces that are wet, mold may begin to grow indoors. And the growth of mold takes just a matter of hours. According to the National Association of Home Builders, all it takes is 48 hours for a moist environment combined with room temperature to produce mold growth. When mold does begin to grow, homeowners will notice a less-than-welcoming aroma often characterized as musty. In addition, mold growth, which is most common in areas of the home like the kitchen, bathroom and basement where humidity and moisture levels are higher, can be unsightly and unhealthy. In 2004, the Institute of Medicine linked indoor exposure to mold with upper respiratory tract symptoms, cough and wheeze in people who, prior to exposure, were healthy. The IOM also found exposure to mold can exacerbate asthma conditions for people who already have asthma and even linked respiratory illness in otherwise healthy children to exposure to mold. What such research highlights is the emphasis homeowners must place on removing mold from their homes. While mold is a natu-
ral part of the environment that is impossible to eliminate entirely, homeowners can take steps to stop mold growth in their homes and protect themselves and their families along the way. When addressing a mold problem, keep in mind the potentially negative impact mold can have on your health and dress accordingly. Wear long sleeves, gloves, protective goggles, and even a mask or respirator that covers the nose and mouth to reduce your risk of developing a respiratory illness. FIX LEAKY PIPES AND OTHER WATER PROBLEMS. Mold growth can cause cosmetic damage that can never be repaired. But fixing leaky pipes and addressing other water problems, including leaky windows, is a good way to stop future mold growth and prevent further cosmetic damage to the home. SCRUB AND DRY. When addressing moldy surfaces, scrub them hard with detergent and water. Once finished, dry the surfaces thoroughly. Going forward, routinely clean areas of the home that have had mold growth in the past. DO NOT MASK THE MOLD PROBLEM. Painting or caulking over

MYTH: LEATHER IS TOO EXPENSIVE. The up-front cost of leather furniture may be more than other options. However, while many other fabrics wear out over time, leather will develop its character and patina through frequent use.
