BACK IN THE GOOD OLD DAYS EIGHTY YEARS AGO MARCH 10-14, 1934 n H.L. Pierce was in town recalling the old ball-playing days of close to 30 years ago. In those days, every section of town seemed to have a name. “Upon the commons” meant out on that section of ground west of Frisco Avenue, north of County, east of Lincoln and south of Cleveland. One trouble was that when you got a good seat on a box car, they switched it into a train, and you had to watch or you’d be hauled to Arkansas. n The new road to Eagle Rock through Cassville and out on the Roaring River road is in good shape and makes a nice drive. Where the new highway was blasted out of the hill near Eagle Rock, a pink stone very much like limestone in texture and strangely intermixed with limestone. It glistens in the sunlight and makes a bright pink line along the bank. SEVENTY YEARS AGO MARCH 10-14, 1944 n On March 11, J. Merrill Woods, of Monett, who has represented Barry County in the last two sessions of the Missouri General Assembly, announced he is a Republican candidate for re-election. n The War Mom’s Club has had substantial assistance in paying for the jukebox used for the Saturday night dances for service men at the club’s recreation hall. Fortyseven people donated $1 each and 19 people donated smaller amounts.
SIXTY YEARS AGO MARCH 10-14, 1954 n On March 11, E.E. Camp, Monett school superintendent, was presented with a Silver Beaver Award for his outstanding contributions over the past 25 years to scouting. Camp has lived in Monett for 15 years. n Tickets are on sale for 20 or 40 cents for the barbershop concert by two quartets and a trio on March 20 at Purdy High School. Proceeds will be used by seniors to pay for graduation expenses and a possible senior trip. FIFTY YEARS AGO MARCH 10-14, 1964 n On March 9, Claude Roderick, owner of the Roderick Arms and Tools Corporation, was elected president of the Monett Chamber of Commerce, succeeding Rex Lane. M.C. (Bob) Baum was elected vice president. n Construction is proceeding on schedule for the new second addition to the junior-senior high school, filling the block on the north side of Scott Street from Eighth to Ninth. It will be completed by Aug. 1 and connects to the earlier fourroom addition. FORTY YEARS AGO MARCH 10-14, 1974 n On March 11, the Monett City Council voted to purchase radio equipment for two fire trucks and a bay station to replace equipment which has been in use for 20 years. The new equipment, including fourfrequency transmitters and receivers, was purchased from Motorola
The Monett High School girls basketball team headed off to the Missouri Class 3A Basketball Tournament in Columbia on March 8, 1984, shown above, the first year the MHS girls basketball team went to state. The girls beat Camdenton 49-40 in Springfield for the right to advance. File photo/The Monett Times Communications for $2,697 plus a trade-in. n Charles Donica has been elected the new president of the Monett Lions Club, succeeding Rev. John Sweigart. Jay Minor was elected first vice president and Rex Kay is second vice president. THIRTY YEARS AGO MARCH 10-14, 1984 n The Monett City Council paid the final $10,000 on the $125,000 bond approved by voters in November 1963, completing paying off the pool over 20 years. n The Monett Girl Cubs closed their
26-5 basketball season in fourth place at the Missouri Class 3-A State Finals in Columbia. Coach Cleo Elbert assured fans next year’s team will play well. TWENTY YEARS AGO MARCH 10-14, 1994 n Parents picked up their children from school on March 8 in near blizzard conditions as the biggest snowstorm of the 1993-94 winter plowed into the Monett area, five years to the week after the disastrous snowstorm that caused tens of millions of dollars in losses to the poultry industry.
n The Monett City Council honored seventh grader Derek Marshall Norvell after the Monett Middle School student won first prize in the state Public Drinking Water Program state poster contest. TEN YEARS AGO MARCH 10-14, 2004 n Rod Anderson, of Monett, has been confirmed by the Missouri Senate following his appointment by Governor Bob Holden to
the Missouri Southern State University Board of Regents. Anderson will travel to New Orleans later this month to attend the National Board of Governors Conference. n Closing was held on March 10 on the property needed to rebuild the Pierce City Branch of the Barry-Lawrence Regional Library, which was flattened by the May 4, 2003 tornado. Plans can now go forward to rebuild and add a community room.

Monett Area YMCA celebrates milestone Facility promotes family fun, fitness BY MELONIE ROBERTS

elebrating 10 years in the Monett community, the Monett Area YMCA has just passed it’s oneyear anniversary at its new location on Highway 37 just past South Park. “We started in the old Armory,” said Gordon Brown, executive director of the Monett Area YMCA. “It was never intended to be the permanent facility. We started in the founder’s facility to show Monett what we could do with our resources, fill gaps in the community and find the best way possible to serve.” The start-up facility, which cost $350,000, was supported by community efforts, spearheaded by Nancy Ridgley and Greg Johnson. “We started a sports program in January 2004, and by March 15 of that year, we opened to membership,” Brown said. “By the summer of 2006, we had formed a committee to hold dream sessions of what the YMCA could be.” By 2007, the committee conducted
community surveys to determine what community leaders felt was possible to bring to the community and propose plans for the new facility. “By 2008, we had considered several possible locations, and we felt this one, near the park, was the most ideal,” Brown said. The Monett City Council hosted a public hearing and over 100 people attended. That summer, the financial campaign got underway for the new facility, and the committee started perusing artist renderings and floor plans. “The final plan was going to be completely dependent on our fundraising efforts,” Brown said. The Monett community stepped forward and committed to the plan, raising over $6 million by 2010. The Mabee Foundation of Tulsa Okla., offered an additional $2 million if the YMCA reached its goal of $8 million by Jan. 13, 2011. “We completed that goal a week early,” Brown said. “That was a really big deal. It cut close.” Far from being finished with the CONTINUED ON PAGE 6

YMCA: Monett Area YMCA facility promotes family fun and fitness

challenge, the committee continued its fundraising campaign until late spring of 2011. The plan for the facility was finalized, and groundbreaking ceremonies were held July 4, 2011. In a whimsical move, pool noodles were pulled from the ground with the first scoop of earth removed by the track hoe. “We thought it was fitting, since we were building a new swimming pool,” Brown said. Construction took place between July 2011 and Feb. 2013. When the facility opened, there were already 3,500 memberships in place and those numbers doubled within the a matter of months. “It takes the front desk staff at least 12 months to realize the number of programs we offer,” Brown said. “There is such a variety — from 100 guys playing flag football to 3-yearolds learning tap, ballet and jazz dance.” Programs are not limited to the facility. There are after-school programs that are taken directly to campus so young students don’t have to travel. “This is not only a place that encourages fitness, but it’s a social place as well,” Brown said. “We host birthday parties, arts and humanities classes for kids, and we’ve just started offering roller skating.” While the YMCA may seem daunting to those who don’t like to “exercise,” there are plenty
It’s said that kids of all ages are attracted to water. That proved true for Jamie Aldaba, 2, as he played on the splash pad at the Monett Area YMCA. His challenge was to see how far he could make water splash by stepping on one of the in-floor fountains. Melonie Roberts/reporter@monett-times.com of opportunities to get some fitness activity in without the “no pain, no gain” mentality. “Roller skating is one of those activities that doesn’t really feel like exercise,” Brown said. “The rock wall may look like a fun challenge, but it is very hard exercise. “The Y also promotes character development,” he continued. “Those key components are honesty, responsibility, respect and caring.” Staffers at the YMCA, along with a host of volunteers, are vital to the success of the business. “They make this happen,” Brown said. “Board members volunteer for coaching, events and expanded programs.”
The facility is now home to yoga, body pump, Zumba, and other group activities, as well as spinning classes hosted by the Journeys program through Cox Monett Hospital. There are also scholarships and financial assistance to help individuals or families pay their monthly membership fees. “We don’t want anyone to not participate due to financial strain,” Brown said. “Last year, we offered $130,000 in assistance for membership and program fees.” For more information, people may call Brown at 235-8213 or visit the facility located at 115 S Lincoln Ave. in Monett.

Older friends sharing time are sharing kisses as well
D
EAR ABBY: I am a semi-retired widow in my 60s. A few months ago I started spending time with a man I work with. We would see each other once or twice a month, strictly as friends. Our “dates” ended with a platonic hug. About a month ago, a hug turned into an embrace. A week later, the embrace became a passionate kiss. Since then, whenever we get together—now once or twice a week—we spend a good portion of our time together “making out.” We love the way each other kisses. The problem is, we’re still just friends. There is no desire on the part of either of us to take the relationship up a notch. What do we do? We should not be kissing a friend the way we do, but we can’t seem to stop. We’re not hurting anyone. We have tried meeting only in public places, but there is still the goodnight kiss. I never thought I’d need this kind of advice at my age. Must we stop spending time together?— FLABBERGASTED IN WISCONSIN DEAR FLABBERGASTED: Not in my opinion. I assume you’re both eligible. This is the way relationships develop, and you would be foolish not to see where
JEANNE PHILLIPS DEAR ABBY it leads. As of now, a kiss is still a kiss. Let me hear from you in a month. DEAR ABBY: I am writing on behalf of hairstylists. We are busy people. Our time is money. We rarely even stop for lunch. Clients who come in talking on their cellphones are a real problem for us because they slow us down. I have had clients jump up from my chair to answer their cellphone in the middle of a haircut—hair flying everywhere. I have had to do a haircut AROUND a cellphone, with the client switching the phone from ear to ear! These are not even important calls—just casual conversations. The lack of courtesy is ridiculous, and it seems to be getting worse. I would like people who do this to think twice before subjecting their stylist to it. They should put their phones on silent, get their hair cut or colored, and talk on their own time!—FED UP IN NEBRASKA
DEAR FED UP: You are not helpless. This is happening because you have allowed it. If you can’t find the gumption to tell your customers you don’t want them using their cellphones while they’re in your chair, then post a sign on your mirror that reads “Cellphones Not Allowed.”
DEAR ABBY: I am a new bride. I love my husband very much, but I’ve encountered a problem I don’t know how to handle. My husband and I were together for six years before we got married and were engaged for three. We eloped to Las Vegas (it wasn’t planned) and had a “proper” celebration with friends and family later. My husband makes comments that suggest I
dragged him and tricked him into marrying me. I know he’s only kidding, but it’s very hurtful. I don’t know how to let him know his comments really hurt my feelings. It makes me feel like he’s ashamed of our marriage.—NEWLYWED IN CALIFORNIA DEAR NEWLYWED: The squeaky wheel gets the grease. The next time your husband does it, speak up. Explain that his attempts at humor are hurtful, not to mention insulting. Ask him if he regrets marrying you. (If the answer is yes, it’s important that you know it NOW.) Clear communication is the key to a strong marriage, and so is respect for one’s partner, which he appears to be lacking.
