Redwings prepare for ‘new’ CAAC Red Sue Lounds

| slounds@lsj.com

t may not feel like fall, but don’t tell high school athletes. Football teams started practice Aug. 8 and all other fall sport teams began practice Aug. 10. The cooler weather was a welcome change from typical first week of football weather. The milder weather is just one of the changes athletes and fans will find in St. Johns this school year.

CAAC realigned One major change for St. Johns athletics is the realignment of the Capital Area Activities Conference. “For the first time, we’ve used travel and distance in creating the different divisions within the league,” said Ervin. St. Johns remains a Chris Ervin member of the Red Division which now includes the Redwings plus Owosso, Ionia, DeWitt, Haslett and Fowlerville. “The benefits of the realignment are huge,” said Ervin. “It restores some rivalries we lost with the original line up. And competitively, it is great.” And travel distances will definitely be reduced with no more trips to Jackson schools.

Other changes St. Johns activities director Chris Ervin says his department faced mandatory budget cuts, just like every department in the district. The athletic budget was balanced with a combination of cost-saving measures and increases in revenues. Junior varsity coaching positions for both boys and girls golf have been eliminated. “We are hoping to maintain JV teams but with one coach,” said Ervin. Tennis teams will be impacted by costcutting measures. Beginning this fall,

“The benefits of the realignment are huge. It restores some rivalries we lost with the original line up. And competitively, it is great.” CHRIS ERVIN St. Johns activities director

The company that is installing the new bleachers arrived Aug. 10 and began covering the floor. “The first event in the gym, the first chance for the public to see the new bleachers, will be the Redwing Rally Aug. 30,” said Ervin. He said everyone is

invited to come up, meet the teams and see the new bleachers. The new bleachers are all ADA compliant and will seat about 1,000 on the main level. See REALIGNMENT, Page 4

varsity and JV teams will compete at the same sites. In the past, they have been at opposite sites - varsity at home and JV team away, or vice versa. “It will reduce transportation costs,” said Ervin, “but it will increase the length of matches.” Participation fees are going up from $130 to $150 this year. “That’s an annual fee,” said Ervin. “Kids can do one sport or three for the same fee.” The family rate for families with more than one athlete also increases, from $200 to $250. The other revenue increase will come from an increase in gate fees. “Gate fees will be $5 across the board,” said Ervin. All tickets are now $5. For the past few years, kids age 6-12 have been charged $3. Pre-school children and senior citizens will still be admitted free of charge, according to Ervin.

Bond update Evidence of the first phase of construction under the bond proposal are beginning to be visible around the high school. Replacement of the bleachers in the high school gym was one of the items included in the bond proposal. The old bleachers were dismantled in July.

The 2011 Mint Court was crowned Aug. 10 during the annual Mint Pageant. This year’s pageant theme was Summer Fun. Evan Pinsonnault, news anchor from WLNS/ Channel 6, served as Master of Ceremonies for the evening. Pictured are the reigning Mint Royalty (front, from left) Junior Miss Mint Alissa Longoria; Little Miss Mint Madisyn Kotowicz; (middle) First Runner-up Trista Malek; Second Runner-up Madison Kay Olson; and (standing) Mint Queen Paige Burnash.

The old wooden bleachers will be left in the balcony until the new gym is finished and available for use. Ervin said the design for the redesign of the football field is “pretty much done.” “We’ll begin dismantling the old field as soon as the season ends,” he said. “The plan is to put in sod, and the architect says it should be no problem being ready for the 2012 season.” The football stadium will be all new, retaining only the existing Rotary building, according to Ervin. “The stadium will seat about 3,500,” he said, “with the possibility of seating for an additional 500.” The extra 500 will depend on the final cost of the project. Prior to last year when many of the bleachers had to be removed for safety reasons, the stands would seat about 2,500, Ervin said.

Student participation With practices just beginning, it is too early to know how many students will be taking part in fall sports at St. Johns High School this year. But Ervin said St. Johns has not experienced a decrease in sports participation over the past several years as some schools have. “In fact, last year was the first time in my five years here that we’ve had over 500 athletes,” he said. That number translates to 48 percent of the student body.

Schedules St. Johns is no longer printing pocket sport schedules. Ervin said interested persons can go online to www.sjredwings.digitalsports.com to get accurate, up-to-date schedules for all Redwing sports. “Do not go to HighSchoolSports.net anymore,” he said. “Due to technical difficulties, the schedules there are not accurate.” The Redwings open the football season Friday, Aug. 26 when they host Charlotte.

Dog sport show is Aug. 20-21 in St. Johns If you grew up watching Lassie or Rin-Tin-Tin, you are going to love this. Capital City Dog Sport Association is presenting the 13th annual Dog Sports Open protection dog tournament Saturday, Aug. 20 and Sunday, Aug. 21, hosted by Cher Car Kennels at 4215 S. Lowell in St. Johns. The public is invited to watch this unique dog show, featuring dog and handler teams exhibiting obedience, agility and protection abilities. The tournament has three categories - beginning, intermediate and advanced - with progressively harder tasks required in each level. Both on and off leash obedience is demonstrated while the handler works through some unusual obstacles. The protection scenarios also vary dependent upon category of entry, but start with the basic car

agitation and handler protection, leading up to the elaborate advanced scenarios such as kidnapping, gangland or serial killer where the dog must protect the innocent on command and defend its handler from the worst of foes. Great fun and humor abound in this tournament, as it is always amusing to watch how each contestant encourages their dog to complete tasks they may never have seen or done before. Sometimes the dogs exhibit a “mind of their own” and hammer the bad guy a little more than necessary, all to the delight of the crowd. The competition begins at 9:00a.m. on Saturday, with the beginning entries. The tournament resumes on Sunday at 9 a.m. with the intermediate and advanced entries. The advanced competitors are kept sequestered so they cannot benefit

from watching other competitors perform and problem solve their way through the course. Food is available both days, and Saturday has a Doggon good raffle. Entries are open to all breeds, including mixes. Some of the competitors are seasoned veterans of multiple dog sports, and others are grandmothers competing with family companions, both large and small. Everyone is welcome. For additional information about entering the tournament, visit www.CCDSA.info, where you can also view the rules of the competition and video of previous tournaments. Come and enjoy watching this working event highlighting the protective instincts and abilities of our family dogs performing their oldest job, protecting family and home.

ST. JOHNS - Concert in the Park goes Celtic for the Aug. 17 show at the St. Johns City Park Performance Shell as Shepard’s Folly brings its lively brand of music to the summer series. There is no admission charge to the 7 p.m. show at the lovely outdoor venue located next to the Fairgrounds in St. Johns. The quartet of talented musicians who comprise Shepard’s Folly have been entertaining audiences for years performing a wide variety of Celtic music ranging from tragic songs and airs, to fiery jigs and reels from ancient Ireland and Scotland to contemporary America. Band members include Phil Shepard (flute), Patti Anne Lea (vocals, guitar, bodhran), Marty Somberg (fiddle) and Ray Kamalay (guitar, vocals). Kamalay started playing music in Detroit coffeehouses in the late 1960s, working through a diverse repertoire of ragtime, Blues, jazz, Celtic, Brasilian, Bach and original music. He joined up with Shepard and John Sands in the late 1990s to form Shepard’s Folly. Shepard’s early training as a classical musician helped hone skills that paved the way for his transformation to Celtic flute. A “resident” at the Ten Pound Fiddle in East Lansing and frequent

Halfmann reads in D.C. The African American Civil War Museum in Washington, DC, hosted children’s author Janet (Kloeckner) Halfmann, formerly of St. Johns, July 29. The museum has invited Halfmann to do a story time for her Civil War-era biography, “Seven Miles to Freedom: The Robert Smalls Story.” “Seven Miles to Freedom” (Lee & Low Books) tells the story of Robert Smalls, the slave wheelman of a cotton boat turned Confederate gunboat, named the “Planter.” Smalls, with the rest of the slave crew, stole the ship right from under the noses of the Confederates. With the crew’s families hidden below deck, the ship steamed past several forts in Charleston Harbor, giving the correct signals. At the harbor’s entrance seven miles away, the ship found freedom within Union lines. For the rest of the war, Smalls was a pilot for the Union, and later served five terms in Congress. A highlight of the story time will be a replica of the Planter, created by Half-

A highlight of the story time was a replica of Smalls’ steamboat, created by Halfmann’s husband, Tom. COURTESY PHOTO mann’s husband, Tom. Halfmann commented one day how great it would be to have a steamboat to show the kids the paddlewheels, pilot house, smokestack— having in mind a simple model from a hobby shop. No such models could be found, so her husband had created a two-foot-long wooden replica of the Planter. The African American Civil War Museum and Memorial commemorates the more than 200,000 Afri-

can Americans who served as soldiers, sailors, and in in other ways during the Civil War. Halfmann is the author of more than 30 books for children, including several award winners. Other recent titles are Fur and Feathers, Little Skink’s Tail, and Little Black Ant on Park Street. Signed copies of Halfmann’s books are available at the Clinton County Arts Council Gallery in downtown St. Johns.

ST. JOHNS — If you enter Sparrow Clinton Hospital in St. Johns between Aug. 15-31 and see red spots, don’t detour to the emergency room. Make a beeline to the Gift Therapy gift shop where you’ll find a sizzling summer end sale with mark downs ranging from 50-75 percent off regular price. Members of the Sparrow Hospital Auxiliary gift shop committee have sharpened pencils, dampened markers and stuck red dot stickers on hundreds of items to make room for incoming inventory. A group of buyers have recently returned from Chicago with a bag full of sales

receipts representing a host of items and new merchandise for fall, winter and the holidays. “This is perhaps one of the most exciting buying trips we’ve had,” said Kathie Clock. “It was difficult to quit the ‘we’ll take it’ mode. We’re looking forward to a busy fall and holiday season.” She was accompanied on the trip by Chery Goff, Nancy Moore and Judy Minner. Clock pointed out that sale days run from Aug. 15 to month’s end and all new merchandise will be on display shortly thereafter.

Historical Society Tidbits As E. I. Hull was driving his machine down a hill on the road to DeWitt Sunday afternoon, he turned out on the side to give room for a big machine coming from the opposite direction. He slowed down but there was a culvert ahead, and to avoid running off the end, he turned slightly, when the car slewed in the soft ground on the roadside, throwing the front end into the track. About this time the big 90-horse power Olds Limited, belonging to the Governor, in which were Major Oats and others, was almost upon them.

ATTORNEY EDWARD W. JACKSON JACKSON, JACKSON & ASSOCIATES, P.C.

Power was shut off, brakes applied, but the Hull machine got a bad bump, contrary to the peace and dignity of the state of Michigan, breaking both lamps, radiator, etc., and bending a spring and fender on the Governor’s car. Fortunately no one was hurt, and it will only take six weeks salary of the Governor to fix up the Hull machine, while a month’s salary ought to put his own machine in shape. The Major should send a herald ahead when he ventures into the country. — Submitted by the Clinton County Historical Society

THEIR HEARING AIDS? Now how many have said their hearing aids make some sounds too loud, don’t work well in noise, or they can’t tell if they are really helping them hear at all? Audiologists and dispensers try to make hearing aids function the best they can to give the patient a good outcome. But there were always a lot of difficulties surrounding comfort and understanding of speech. Let’s say you have a small child, an average sized woman, and a very large man, all with the same hearing loss. All hearing aids would be programmed the same way, according to the hearing aid manufacturers software. But the ear canals themselves must figure into the process, as well. Without diving into too much physics, ear canal size and shape for the child would be quite small. The woman would be close to the average size ear canals and the man’s ear canals would be quite large and long. The child would receive too much power from the hearing aids, the woman’s fitting would be close, and the man’s hearing aids would seem very quiet. All hearing aid manufacturers base their science off the average ear. But no one has the average ear. Live speech mapping is the latest innovative approach to hearing aid fitting which uses natural speech to show how effective digital hearing aids are in helping you to hear speech. With digital speech mapping, an actual speech signal, not tones or hissing sounds, is used to test the hearing aids while inserted in the patient’s ears. This

allows for the shape and size of the patient’s ear canals to be included in the fitting process, as well as using the most important signal we hear, speech. For hearing aid fittings to be successful, speech must be appropriately amplified with respect to loudness, clarity, and comfort. Soft speech should be perceived as soft, moderate speech sounds should be perceived as moderate, and loud speech sounds should not reach the patient’s discomfort level. Speech mapping helps to provide a clear “visual” sense of the hearing loss, and the benefits or perhaps the limitations that your current hearing aids offer in relation to actual speech. While wearing hearing aids, a tiny probe microphone is inserted into the ear canal while the hearing aids are running, then a stimulus (voices/music) is used to measure the output and shows if the hearing aids are amplifying sounds appropriately. The Live Speech Map is displayed on a monitor through easily-understood graphics so that you can actually see sounds that are missing and be presented with a clear visual sense of hearing loss and aided benefits relating to actual speech. It allows you to see graphically just how the aid is performing in a live, real world environment. Once we see what sounds you’re missing, we’ll be able to tune your personal hearing aids until it restores the missing speech patterns and tones. So, not only will you hear the difference a hearing aid makes with your speech, you’ll be able to see the sounds being restored visually as well. A successful hearing aid fitting should be a dynamic,

August 14, 2011

ST. JOHNS — The Aug. 27 bake sale at Kroger will be a benefit for the Senior Center sponsored by the St. John’s Lutheran Church Ladies Guild and Thrivent Financial. The sale will begin at 9 a.m. and close around noon. There will be all sorts of cookies, breads, brownies, pies, candy and snacks. The Senior Center holds a bake sale monthly at Kroger. This particular sale has an additional benefit for the Center — Thrivent Financial has authorized matching half of the money raised at this sale for the Senior Center.

If there is something special you would like baked that might not be at the sale, call Marilyn at (989) 224-2549 and she will see if one of the bakers can fulfill your order. Future sale dates at Kroger are Sept. 17, Oct. 15and Nov. 19. On Dec. 3 the Senior Center bake sale will be at the Chamber of Commerce Christmas Festival at the Clinton County RESA Building. If you are interested in baking for future sales, call Brenda Terpening at (989)224-7248. — From Clinton County Senior Center

we held weekly drawings giving away prizes from St. Johns businesses, and would like to congratulate all of our winners. Jamie Rewerts, Caroline Cornell, Jacob Cagle, Ann Parker, Sue Dunn, Scott Mohre, Stephanie Hein and Mary Ellen Darnell were the weekly winners, while Kim Mabe won the grand prize of four tickets to a Lansing Lugnuts baseball game. Congratulations to all. And of course, we wouldn’t have been nearly as successful without the generous support of our sponsors. Dianne Berry and Redwing Lanes, Blodgett Oil, Big Boy, Kroger, Biggby’s, Kmart, Foster’s Pub, and Speedway all donated prizes or allowed us to advertise at their business, and for that we are extremely grateful. Thank you again for your continued support of Briggs Library.

Guessing Contest winners “154 nuts” cracked up the Nussknacker (nutcracker) and Ty Wardin won with his guess of 133 nuts. Last week, summer readers were asked to guess how many chopsticks were hidden in the container. There were 97 chopsticks and Camden Bangs, Jill Dexter, Lyric Hein, Sarah Veale and Wyatt Wilcox were the closest with their guess of 100. Congratulations to our winners.

Library closure The Library will be closed Saturday, Sept. 3 and Monday, Sept. 5 for the Labor Day holiday. The drop box on the Library porch will be available for returns throughout this closure. Sara Morrison is the director of Briggs Public Library.
