Special committee will give bridge advice

By Valerie Werkmeister Posey County Commissioners appointed six individuals to a special committee that will advise them on the Harmony Way Bridge during their meeting on October 7.

The commissioners agreed to take over the ownership of the bridge from the White County Bridge Commission in August. There are still many unresolved questions and concerns regarding how to get the bridge back in service. The newly

appointed committee will serve as a ‘recommending committee,’ according to commissioner Jim Alsop.

Commissioner Jim Alsop suggested several individuals to appoint during the commissioners’ meeting on September 23. However, the appointments were not made as commissioner Jerry Walden indicated he also wanted to speak to the individuals.

Commissioner President Carl

Schmitz urged for Walden to complete his due diligence so that the members of the committee could be appointed during their October 7, meeting.

Commissioners agreed to appoint seven members, including one representative from the commissioners, county council and New Harmony Town Council. Alsop suggested commissioner Jerry Walden to represent the commissioners.

The list of other possible choices included Ryan Rapp, Linda Henning, Andrew Wilson, Zach Weinzapfel, Michael ‘Spud’ Egbert and David Brown to serve on the committee. The county council would make their appointment during their October 14, meeting.

When Alsop suggested a motion to approve the aforementioned names, Walden asked to table the

New Harmony to learn flood plain outcome

By Valerie Werkmeister While most of the nation has their eyes fixed on the upcoming November 4, election date, residents of New Harmony are just as concerned about the day after. November 5, is the official date the county’s new flood plain maps go into effect. The town was hit hard with the news that more than half of the town is designated in a Class A flood plain.

Those who attended the New Harmony Town Council meeting last Thursday, October 16, asked the council many questions regarding the situation.

Council members explained they have taken every possible step and done everything they can think of to alleviate this situation for their town. Council woman Linda Warrum stated that they have sent letters to each of their representatives including Congressman Larry Bucshon, Senator Dan Coats and U.S. Senator Joe Donnelly. Additionally, they have sent letters to the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) in Chicago and Washington, D.C. Andrew Wilson explained the only way to get the maps changed is for the Army Corps of Engineers to conduct a new study with current data. Wilson said the town has been informed there are currently no funds allocated to do a study.

He suggested residents continue to contact their representatives to request funding for a study.

Andrew Wilson suggested the board move forward on making a decision regarding future plans for the former New Harmony School building and property. The council has plans created by Kennedy Hutson Associates of Monticello, Ill., that provided ideas the town may consider. All three of the plans suggested creating more residential development.

“I think it’s imperative we start the discussion for this property,” Wilson said.

Council members discussed the possibility of razing the school building and liquidating any possible assets still within the building.

INDOT, Mount Vernon partner for trails Special to the News The Indiana Department of Transportation and the City of Mount Vernon, Ind., will partner to complete their newest trail project that will go from the City’s riverfront on the Ohio River in Southwest Indiana through the heart of the community. The trail is one of many quality of place projects on tap for the City through 2017.

The City of Mount Vernon in partnership with the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) announced today the continued development of the City’s

trail system that weaves throughout key sections of the City. With a total investment of over $6 million, the new phases of the Riverbend Trails will extend from Mount Vernon’s newly developed riverfront to Brittlebank Park, a total of two miles including streetscapes and a neighborhood pocket park.

The Riverbend Trails project was recently submitted to INDOT and received the highest rating in a statewide competitive round of funding. The city was

Poseyville Fire Dept. gets pagers, cadets

By Valerie Werkmeister Stray cats have become a bit of a problem in Poseyville. During the October 8, Poseyville Town Council meeting, President Bruce Baker urged citizens to not feed any stray cats, particularly those found loitering by Dollar General.

Baker stated he has received several complaints from citizens about the number of cats who gather in the alley by the business. He has also personally asked people to not feed the cats when he has witnessed them

doing so.

Council members Ron Fallowfield and Steve Ahrens agreed the cats could pose a health issue if they are sick and bite someone. Instead of finding their own food source, the cats have learned they will be fed nearby and gather in the evening. Baker also stated that the county animal control unit does not pick up stray cats, so it remains a local problem.

Cynthiana latest flood plain map victim

By Valerie Werkmeister Cynthiana Town Board members learned during their regular meeting on Tuesday, October 14, that a small portion of property located at the edge of the city limit is now designated a flood plain area.

This news brought many questions and concerns with few answers that evening.

Posey County Area Plan Direc-

tor, Mindy Bourne, was the bearer of bad news to council members as she is the flood plain administrator for Mount Vernon, Poseyville, Cynthiana and unincorporated areas of the county.

She explained the town is not currently in a designated flood plain area. However, new maps are set to go into effect on November 5, and a piece of farmland located at

the south end of Oak Street is now included in the flood plain area.

Council members and residents are familiar with the situation that New Harmony is currently in regarding the new flood plain maps and expressed concern whether they would be in the same boat too.

Bourne stated she learned Cyn-

Halloween Pranks from days of yore

By Lois Mittino Gray Pulling off pranks at Halloween was standard practice around these parts long ago. Reminiscing with some oldsters, their stories of yesteryear left me in awe at their sheer audacity as they met the challenge each year to go bigger and better.

OK, first off, I confess. It’s true.

I’ve pulled my share of Halloween tricks in my youth. I’ve toilet papered trees and given out dog biscuits to unwary little beggars who ventured upon my poorly lit front porch after I ran out of candy. Why, one year, I even threw some ice cubes into the sack of an ornery little neighborhood boy who taunted me. I heard him say ‘oh no’ a few doors down as the cubes melted and made the bottom and all his candy fall out of his brown paper sack.

Mea culpa.

But those transgressions pale next to these memories….

er, pulled elaborate pranks at the old Poseyville School at Halloween. One year, they entered through the fire escape and carried in all the parts to reassemble a giant farm wagon in the hallway. Hay was strewn throughout the halls on both floors and for the grand finale, live goats and a cow were let loose in the building. The next day, administrators made all the school children clean up the mess, but what a memory that is.

Overton remembers that one year, she and a girlfriend were watching the school pranking in the hallway and the cops came. “We saw them coming and had to jump out the school window about six feet down. My friend hurt her ankle and I had to drag her to a nearby cornfield to hide until the cops left,” she said with a smile.

Anne Baker recalls that a farm wagon always seemed to end up on the roof of the second story old New

Persimmons and Pine Cones, Winter’s Old Wives’ Tales during development, age and the species.

An extra furry coat developing on your outside pets or the early migration of geese and other sun-loving, warm weather birds are also said to be indicators. Perhaps the sudden sightings of rodents or spiders in one’s home have less to do with the farmer’s harvest in the nearby fields and more to do with a need for early vacancy.

The old wives’ tale also says that spiders who spin larger than usual webs or enter houses in greater numbers is an indicator of a harsh winter on its way.

Several local people have reported seeing an influx of spiders in their homes as crops have been harvested in the last few weeks. The latter reason is most likely the answer.

The thickness of an acorn shell may be another cue from Mother Nature on the type of winter looming ahead. The Farmer’s Almanac points out that thicker acorn shells indicate an extra-cold winter. Likewise, thicker corn husks are another indicator of a cold winter. The thicker and tighter the husk, the more the corn is trying to protect itself from cool weather.

A corn field still waiting to be harvested in northern Posey County did not seem tightly wrapped. It had six layers of husks that were providing protection to the golden yellow corn inside. Again, a ‘highly scientific approach’ was used as we peeled just two other ears in the same field. Perhaps different varieties in different fields in different parts of the county would reveal different results?

Have you noticed how high bees, wasps or hornets are building their nests this year? Some believe that when they build their nests high, folks should expect a severe winter with a lot of snow.

As the old saying goes, “See how high

simmon in September and slice open the seed. If the seed displays a knife shape, a cold and icy winter is in store. Thus, the phrase ‘the wind will cut through you like a knife.’ If a fork shape appears, it indicates a mild winter. If however, you find a spoon shape, you’d better get your snow shovel or snow blower ready.

A spoon shape stands for a shovel and indicates there’s going to be plenty of snow that winter.

Let’s just say, based on the ‘scientific research’ conducted with persimmons for this article, the kids will get their chance to become experts in building snowmen and constructing snow forts.

Another popular old folklore indicator is the woolly worm. It is the caterpillar of the Tiger Moth, and soon our county roads will be filled with the little critters trying to make their way to the other side. Some say the thickness of the reddish-brown band in the middle of the woolly worm is an indicator of the type of winter we will experience. The narrower the band, the harsher the winter.

Field research was conducted to find the highly elusive creature in its natural habitat. No specimens were found.

Watch in the coming weeks for the mass exodus on a county road near you.

According to research conducted by Dr. C.H. Curran, a former curator of insects at the American Museum of Natural History in New York City, he found an 80 percent accuracy rate in the 1950s for their weather predictions.

Brant Oakley shows a pinecone According to information gleaned that recently fell from a tree (pic- from an article on insects on www. tured on the left) compared to a about.com, today’s entomologists do pinecone picked up from last year not believe woolly worms are accurate (on the right). Larger pinecones weathermen. They say there are many are also suppose to be indicators variables that can contribute to the band that a harsh, snowy winter is upon of color on the woolly worm, including food availability, temperature, moisture us.

By Valerie Werkmeister Ahh…the beauty of Fall is upon us.

The trees are beginning to show their colors and leaves have begun to fall.

It’s a time for hoodies at football games, apple pies, bon fires and hayrides. Local farmers are well into their harvest.

Squirrels are also busily working on their own harvest in preparation for the next season – winter.

There are signs all around that can tell a person just what kind of winter we will have. You just have to know where to look. Some rely on the Farmer’s Almanac which uses math and astronomy to base its projections. Others have used generations of folklore or old wives’ tales that have been handed down through the ages. Yet, others may have seen a model floating around Facebook which decries a very snowy and nasty winter. And—since it’s on Facebook, it must be true.

It is interesting to explore some of these tales and who knows; maybe a combination of all will tell what kind of winter is headed our way.

Older generations recall their grandparents’ teaching them to cut open a per-

the hornet’s nest, ‘twill tell you how high the snow will rest.”

Town of Cynthiana employee Steve Sims recently found himself with the task of removing two hornets’ nests from the town park. The job required assistance from a local beekeeper and beekeeping suits as well as a truck lift to reach the nests.

Judging by how high Sims’ had to retrieve the hornets’ nest, I sure hope this old wives tale isn’t accurate.

Perhaps one of the more relatively unknown folklore tales is that for every foggy morning in August, there will be a snowfall in the winter. According to Chief Meteorologist, Wayne Hart, of Local Channel 14-WFIE news, he recorded three August mornings with significant fog at the Evansville Airport.

Should we take bets now on the number of school days our students will miss?

Supposedly, trees produce larger pine cones when the impending winter will be rough. The tree does this in an effort to ensure some of the seeds will outlast the birds and squirrels who feed on them.

Are pigs gathering sticks? If you’ve witnessed this behavior, it might be an indicator of a harsh winter. Is the hair on the nape of your beloved cow thick?

How thick is the coat of fur on your stately steed? If you’ve noticed these things, they are also said to indicate colder than normal winters.

The sage advice from the Old Farmer’s Almanac for our area says, ‘this winter will be much colder than normal, with the coldest periods in mid-December, from late December through early January, and in mid-and late January.

Precipitation will be slightly below normal, but snowfall with be above normal, with the snowiest periods in early to mid-November, mid-and late December, late January, early February, and early to mid-March.

Whew. That’s a lot of snow events.

If all these indicators are true, now is the time to become proficient in crosscountry skiing or picking out Siberian Huskies for the dog sled team.

The Promoting A DrugFree Community in Posey County Committee hosted their ‘Trick or Treat Dash’ on Saturday morning at Brittlebank Park. The

Allison Werkmeister and Brant Oakley are excited that each of the persimmons seeds we sliced open showed spoons.

If the folklore prediction holds true, our area can expect to see a very snowy winter. Photo by Valerie Werkmeister

Woolly worms or the caterpillar of the Tiger Moth are also indicators of what type of winter an area will have. It is said that if the reddish-brown area is narrow, the upcoming winter will be harsh.

Others say that the colors indicate the type of winter we previously had. This little guy contradicts other folklore indicators showing heavy snow possibilities. He has a large reddish-brown band that indicates it will be a mild winter.

RETROSPECT

PCPP celebrates 10 years, holds annual Holiday Craft Show Madeleine, it is already almost time for the Holiday Craft/Gift Show to benefit PC Pound Puppies. On November 1, we will be having the fifth annual event that is so important to cover the need for funds, helping to save and re-home so many dogs in Posey County. As always we hope that many people will come out to the Posey County Fairgrounds on that Saturday to support our efforts. We have many new things this year, with great food, entertainment, raffles, and fun for all.

I have always loved dogs, and all animals, and although I do not work directly with the ones that are up for adoption, I try to do all that I can to make these events an ongoing success. I so admire the others who do so very much more to save the dogs that need our help. This is the tenth year of

our organization, and hun- great beagle mix pet. When I dreds of dogs have been saved get to your house every morndue to their efforts. ing, she is usually the first to greet me, and when our eyes D M

I will always miss them. It is comforting to know that we gave them a good ten years of life. Abandoned as puppies at the Dubois County shelter, these huge black pups needed someone willing to take them.

Larger dogs are sometimes harder to place.

Everyone, of course, is not meant to be a dog owner, for many reasons, and this is one of the sad reasons we see so many sad and confused dogs who need new homes. When an older person passes away, it is not unusual for their pet to be left wondering where their beloved master has gone. This is just one of the many reasons that PC Pound Puppies is so needed in our county.

My smallest dog, Baby, was the unusual ‘runt’ who is less than half the size of a normal Shih Tzu, She was given to me by the breeder who had hoped that she would be

the mother of many purebred puppies. I am thankful that this gentle little soul came to me. I shudder to think what might have happened to her.

Her ‘sister,’ Lily Rose, needed expensive bladder surgery a few years ago, and will always have to take medication for the rest of her life.

We worried this past summer, when one of our larger dogs, Holly, had a large tumor on her leg. The surgery was successful, and we are praying that it will not return. I try not to think about the dogs who might have had these problems, and nobody helped them.

Madeleine, I know that you join me in pleading for many people to come out to the fairgrounds on November 1, and support our efforts to save more deserving dogs this year.

To everyone, please spend some of your gift money this

Baby year right here, supporting both the dogs and our local vendors. Don’t send your hard earned money to Walmart, China, or the mall. Spending some of your allotted Christmas funds right here in Posey County helps so much more.

Vendor spaces are still available. Call me 812-963-3890.

Memoirs of Sally Huck, Part 3 I Graduated in May of 1951, my future husband, Charles Graduated in May of 1950. We had our first date at an Autumn School Dance and I was in the 8th Grade and Charles was a High School Freshman. We both dated others through out our High School years. Then; upon turning 18 years old, Charles joined the U.S. Navy in January, 1951. The Korean War had just begun and he was to catch a train out of Louisville, KY, that would take him up to The Great Lakes Naval Station for Boot Camp. This was along Lake Michigan and just above Chicago, IL. He was then sent down to Jacksonville, FL, to be schooled in The Ordinance Division of the Naval Flight Squadron, In the mean time; I continued my active curriculums with many school activities. For my Senior year at NHHS, I was recognized as having the fastest fingers on a typewriter, was a cheerleader for The Rappite High School Boy’s Basketball Team, participated in what I loved the most of, entering many Band and Choir contests. After graduation I worked at George Couch & Son’s Mill, carried on swimming as one of the Old Dam Girls and could always be found at The Saturday Night Dance. Charles and I wrote letters back and forth and he would send me items from their different Ports of Call.

We did continue seeing one another when he came home on leave. Charles actually did sail the High Seas; while serving the country during The Korean War, he was my Sailor Boy on board The U.S. Naval Aircraft Carrier U.S.S. Tarawa. He was a crew member on The Torpedo Bombing Planes (TBM’s) in The Ordinance Division cruising around on and flying over The Mediterranean Sea. I continued working at George Couch & Son’s Mill until I married Charles on Nov. 15, 1953 in The St. Stephen’s Episcopal Church. Upon being married, I officially became a Naval Bride. Charles had just recently returned from the Mediterranean Cruise and he was assigned to an Island Auxiliary Airbase Station in Chincoteague, VA. Following the Wedding, Charles drove us out East together. A few months into the new atmosphere, we moved off the Island Base to Pocomoke City, MD. into an apartment. Every where you looked, there were mounds of oyster shells and Seafood was everyone’s favorite food. We met many new friends and learned a lot in the year we were there. Our first baby boy, Charles Steven Huck, was born at The Chincoteague Naval Hospital. When Steve was only 3 months old, we brought him home to New Harmony, IN. Charles had completed his 4

years of service, was honorably discharged, was looking forward to returning to his chosen profession of farming, and it was time to get Back Home in Indiana. I was also excited to return home and show off my new family, Charles was anxious to get back to helping his Dad with the chores out on the farm and apply his new knowledge of working ideas.

Charles’ Dad & Mom were Jerome August Huck and Nathalee Pearl (Baker) Huck. Jerome farmed and drove a livestock truck, hauling animals to and from The Evansville Stock Yards and other places.

Nathalee was a farmer’s wife who helped Jerome out in the fields with all the chores and was at home caring for their 3 children; Marilyn, Charles, and Betty. She was a wonderful cook, she made fresh desserts every day from many fruit trees and a large garden, and she also sewed making most of her daughter’s clothing when they were young. I loved my in-laws very much and we had many happy times together. Charles & I had 4 children: Steve was born in August-1954, Vickie Lynn, December-1955, Dirk Douglas, September-1958, and Aaron Scott, August-1962.

We lived on a farm five miles East of NH on Old Evansville Rd. where a Blue TBM Plane is painted on the side of a big Red Barn. Through our

children’s School years, we followed each one of them with all the extra-curricular activities that they were in, and we kept very busy. While Charles and I were in School, boys Basketball and Baseball were the only competing Sports offered with other Schools. When our kids were in School, Physical Education was part of the Academics, and for boys, Cross Country Running was included. Our two older sons, Steve and Dirk played all sports available. And…because of the Title 9 Amendment that was passed into law during the Summer of 1972, girls were allowed to compete in Sports against other Schools with their own teams. Our Daughter Vickie, as a High School Senior in 1972-’73, was on the first Girls Volleyball Team. Expanding into other Sports; in 1978, son #3 Scott, was on the first Soccer Team in Posey County.

It was fun watching our children grow up and eventually marrying and having families of their own. We have 8 Grandchildren and 12 Great-Grandchildren. Charles retired from The General

Electric Plastics Plant in Mt. Vernon, IN, after 26 years in 1992. I retired from The Posey County National Bank, NH Branch in 1990 after 25 years. In March of 1996, Charles and I opened Aunt Sallies Soda Shoppe, Main Street in NH. We really had a wonderful time with it; Aunt Sallies Soda Shoppe was the best two years of our lives.

We had so much fun meeting everyone that came in contact with that business. It was worth every bit of the hard work that it demanded. But it all came to an end in May of 1998 when it burned down along with The Harmonie Haus Gift Shop at the end of the block. For a beautification project, NH was replacing sidewalks and punctured a gas line under the sidewalk coming down Tavern Street across from the Town Clock.

The explosion blew the buildings sky high and it was a complete loss, nothing was salvageable. It was the second time that end of block burned, the first in 1911.

New Harmony has just celebrated its Bi-centennial, 200th Birthday and all the events held during the ‘Cap-

stone Week’ were well attended and very much enjoyed !!!

We hope you all have as much to celebrate and to be proud of when you open our ‘Time Capsule’. Each event that was scheduled for this celebration had a magical moment. New Harmony has been a wonderful small town to grow up in and to raise a family. It really has been our ‘Heaven on Earth’ and our own ‘Paradise’. Charles and I will be celebrating our 61st Wedding Anniversary in November of this year, 2014. We are very blessed to have lived at this time for this long, together, and having had ever so many very dear and special friends.

We believed in God, had Faith in Jesus, Served our Country, raised a Family, & hope we made a better Community.

We also hope those who read this will Feel the Love and Happiness that we have experienced. Living in New Harmony…I cannot imagine, having lived any where else.

COMMUNITY ‘Poseyville’ continued from Page A1 Poseyville Fire Chief Jeff Droege requested the council approve three new applicants who expressed interest in joining the fire department. The department has been struggling recently with low membership and is eager for new, younger recruits.

The council agreed to allow Kaitlin Taylor, Austin Ahrens and Drew Cox to join the department.

Droege also requested the council allow the department to purchase six new pagers at an approximate cost of $2,000. Droege stated he will use donation funds and turn in old pagers for a credit to help reduce the cost.

Droege stated the recent open house was a success with nearly 100 adults and 60 kids attended the event. They had inflatables for the kids to enjoy and served chili and hot dogs. They stressed the importance of fire prevention awareness during the event.

They also held a raffle for a TV that was won by Jenna Beuligmann and a computer tablet won by Sean Burks.

Mindy Bourne, Director of the Area Plan Commission, was present at the meeting to ask the board to pass approval of a consolidated zoning ordinance amendment that will allow residential storage structures such as garages or pole barns to be constructed on lots that do not currently have a principal use or house.

The current ordinance does not allow a storage structure to be placed on property by itself. A home must exist on the property. Bourne explained that some residents

in Mount Vernon own small properties that are not large enough for a home and the storage structure. It is through their interest, that discussions began a year ago to create this amendment. She noted that Fallowfield also served on the committee that discussed this amendment.

The committee was concerned that second or third property owners may convert the storage structures for uses other than what was intended, such as a business.

However, the committee ultimately decided they would have a way to enforce their zoning laws and would deal with those situations as they occurred.

The amendment allows storage structures on lots in the following zoning areas: Agricultural, Residential Townhouses (RT); two-family homes (R2), multifamily residences (RM and R3). A solitary pole barn or garage will not be allowed in areas zoned as R1, or single family residences. The amendment further states that those interested in John Zody fills his plate with good food at the Wadesville VFW chicken dinner on constructing these types of structures will Thursday evening. Photo by Dave Pearce still be required to appear before the zoning board to request a special use permit.

The council approved the amendment.

Traveling exhibit comes to APL Who Do You Think You Are? The Alexandrian Public Library is proud to present a traveling exhibit from the Indiana Historical Society titled Who Do You Think You Are? from October 25 to November 21.

The different ethnic groups that have played a part in the Hoosier state’s heritage are explored in this exhibit examining the history of diversity. Using photographs, maps, statistics, and graphics drawn from Indiana Historical

Society’s collections and from institutions around the state, Who Do You Think You Are examines such topics as how people immigrated to the United States and Indiana, why they came and where these people settled. It also looks at lighter subjects, such as how different ethnic groups celebrate their heritage.

Who Do You Think You Are? is a 7-foot tall, freestanding exhibit and will be located near the Indiana Room.

Sermon of the Week: “A Woman Will Be Saved Through Childbearing”

By Pastor Matt Watson, Mount Vernon General Baptist Church Shocking lead line. I know.

Cuts me to the core when I read 1 Timothy 2:15: “she will be saved through childbearing—if they continue in faith and love and holiness, with self-control.” Once I get over the shock of reading this line, I take the time to get into the context.

First off, who’s she? She is obviously female as opposed to male. She is the bearer of the human species, the womb-haver, woman. But specifically, the intimation is a woman—the first woman— Eve. As in Adam and Eve, our first parents, this verse is referencing Adam who was formed first, then Eve (v13).

She is Eve in her connection to all women, all people. But ‘she,’ here, is intimating a woman.

Second, what are we to make of “through childbearing?” At first blush, we assume that the woman is saved through childbearing fertility. But then our biblically sanctified minds retort: what about the infertile? Isn’t God

close to the brokenhearted?

Isn’t God for the Sarah’s and Hannah’s and Rachel’s and Anna’s and others who temporarily, or for long time, experience infertility? And our answer is a resounding: “yes!” And that’s why we pray for married women who, for one reason or another, find their wombs closed. We pray for the infertile and for those who will adopt. We pray for and choose life. We believe in an internal coherency to the Bible thus God is surely not intimating a woman must be fertile to be saved. And He is certainly not.

Third, what are we to make of “will be saved?” Salvation is in an instant. But we do “work out our salvation” (Philippians 2:12). This does not mean that we work to attain our salvation. Salvation is not a work of woman but a work of God. Therefore, the doctrine of justification by faith alone through grace alone in Christ alone is not called into question by 1 Timothy 2:15. 1 Timothy gives us other clues as to this usage of “saved.” Being constrained by the text, we are not able

to devolve into self-salvation or all-salvation. We do not abandon the idea of essential nature of salvation on the one hand or flatten salvation out to universalism on the other.

The internal coherence of Scripture simply doesn’t allow for it. But, 1 Timothy 4 shares, “God…is the Savior of all people, especially of those who believe” (4:10).

God is generally the Savior of all people. Our world would be total hell without the intervention of God. But God is specifically and eternally the Savior of those who believe.

Also, the inspired author writes to Pastor Timothy as he urges him to persist in church ministry. He shares, “…by doing so, you will save both yourself and your hearers” (4:16). Timothy’s faithful public exhortation of Scripture (4:13), his persistence to the end, will be a means by which God works out the salvation of not only Timothy but also “the hearers” (4:16).

Those faithful to the hearing of the expository-preachedWord every weekend are having their salvation worked out before their very eyes!

Fourth, we notice the shift from singular to plural in our focus verse, 1 Timothy 2:15.

The second half of the verse is plural: “if they continue…”

They means women but the continuance in faith, love, holiness, and self-control is elsewhere applied to men and women. All professing believers become what they professed to be: saved. There will be progressive growth in spiritual things over the course of a lifetime. The believer increases in selfcontrol. The true believer becomes more holy. But before the shift to plural remains a singular proposition: “she will be saved through childbearing.” The singular nature of the proposition lends itself to not just women but a woman. And context tells us, Eve. The Greek translation into English could rightly read: “she will be saved through the birth of a child.” And Eve was. From Genesis 3:15 to Romans 16:20 to Revelation 12 we see the promise of a struggle and a victory through the birth of a child. One of Eve’s children would come one day and be the Messiah.

As a warrior-king, he would deliver a decisive blow to the head of our arch-enemy, the enemy we first see as a crafty serpent in the garden of Eden, the enemy we see as a defeated dragon in the end. There is a singular hope for one woman and all people: Jesus. And he had to be birthed if he was to die. We are saved through the birth of this child.

Certainly intimated in 1 Timothy 2:15 is that Christians are to avoid selfish marriages. We are to obey the first mandate: “be fruitful and multiply.” We are to be obedient to God and His words. When people see us welcoming of children, inconvenienced and all, they say to themselves: “there’s them people that are being saved. There’s the ones that live for something other than the moment. They believe in the truth of Scripture.”

People see us not pursuing designer families but rather pursuing growing families.

We may not all have the same number of children but we are certainly welcoming of children and never postpone or prevent conception into

the indefinite future. We are sanctified through the means of welcoming children—even when infertility strikes. This is a point of our verse but not the main point.

Finally, the main point of 1 Timothy 2:15 is Christ-mas!

For unto us a child is born (Luke 2). We really believe what the ancient creed distills: the child was conceived of the Holy Spirit, born of the virgin Mary, suffered under Pontus Pilate, crucified, dead, and buried, and on the third day He rose again. Yes, He ascended in much the same way he will return. He will return for His people. But before He could do all that, God the Son had to be born a child. He took on flesh and dwelt among us. Mary gave birth to a child that would singularly change the trajectory of human history. As we near the Christ-mas season, do you know the reason? Are you resting in the finished work of Christ for salvation? Man, woman, boy, girl; salvation comes only through the birth of this child. This is the message evangelical churches want you to know.

Concerned patrons help clear the air at North Posey

By Dave Pearce With fewer people in attendance than at the last North Posey School Board meeting, School Supt. Dr. Todd Camp attempted to answer concerns which had been presented by a number of patrons at the last school board meeting.

Apparently, the board and Camp took the concerns to heart as several of the items mentioned were addressed either during the meeting or in a conversation following the meeting.

In response to concerns regarding current technology, Camp indicated that a website ticketing system has been totally unveiled to help promote the technological health of the North Posey School District.

“If a person has a problem with their computer or printer or other technology, we have about a thousand units within the school district, he or she goes on-line and clicks on the ticketing system and fills out the appropriate form and it immediately goes to the technology person in their building,” Camp explained. “If it is something they can fix, they assign it to themselves and fix it. If they feel it is a problem that’s beyond the person in the building, they send it to the Central IT person (Eric) and it tracks the process each step of the way.’

He also told the board that so far in 2014, North Posey has spent over $375,000 for technology equipment; and over one-half million dollars in total. Technology personnel and principals were trained this week on the system.

Regarding technology at the elementary schools, voiced concerns resulted in the reading of the following statement: “After the special session on September 30, we checked with the building computer coordinators to see if any teachers had reported issues with their classroom technology. We discovered that no issues had been reported via the technology ticket system or verbally to the building coordinators that were not being addressed. All new machines will connect to the internet. We went one step further to en-

sure there were not any unreported issues. On Oct. 3, I went to both elementary schools with our corporation technology coordinators. Each teacher was asked if they had any issues with their equipment. In addition to asking, we had them verify all was working while we were in their classroom. We found 100 percent of the new desktop computers and active board computers worked appropriately. Some teachers have come back since the audit and reported some issues that are now being addressed. In addition we will be beginning phase two of our technology plan, which will deploy the secondary machines.”

Other concerns voiced during the last meeting were addressed. The concern that teachers had not received raises since 2005 as addressed with the following chart: Camp said he agreed that the teachers have not been paid as much as they should or even as much as they could but pointed out that purse strings have been tightened.

“If everyone remembers, the state took over the General Fund and they have been squeezing the dollars,” Camp explained. “In 2012, we were getting approximately $5,700 per student and in 2014, we are getting about $4,700 per student.”

Camp indicated that a concern of overcrowding at North Elementary School is being monitored.

“A this point, I do not think North Elementary is over-crowded,” Camp said. “It is a balancing act as to how you do your classrooms. We will continue to monitor the need, but here is some background on enrollment. The ADM for North Elementary in 2012 was 442 students, in 2013 there were 421 students, and in 2014 we have 427. This does include half-day preschool students. So we are declining in enrollment, even at North Elementary. We currently have two rooms that can be used for classrooms, if needed.”

Camp went on to say, “Since 2009 our test

scores have steadily increased, we are eighth overall in state performance; the highest we have ever obtained to my knowledge. Our class sizes are lower than the state average class size.

We have maintained solid financial stability during the most difficult times for education.

In the SIEC (Southern Indiana Education Cooperative), we have maintained a competitive salary model, being in the top third among over 30 school corporations. Our facilities are the best shape they can be, while maintaining a steady tax rate. Actually, we have decreased the tax rate over the last six years after the reform of the General Fund, when it automatically decreased.”

But giving credit to elementary school teachers, Camp told the audience, “I think today, with the new style of teaching, elementary teachers have the hardest job in the corporation.

They have to develop so many lesson plans and they have to develop so many individual small groups and you have three or four lessons going on at the same time. In a 900-square-foot classroom, when you try to separate students into four different groups, it creates chaos. Corporations all over the State of Indiana are going to have problems with that issue. That is something we need to continue to monitor and find a way to address. It is evident the new style of teaching is working. Right now, we are eighth in the state in our ISTEP scores.”

As for classroom overcrowding, a study was done by Avon School District involving the top 23 schools in Indiana based on ISTEP scores.

Although Camp admitted North Posey schools are not perfect but with the continued funding cuts for education, concerned individuals need to be contacting their state legislators.

“The only way we are going to get funding back into education is to get those people to vote ‘yes,’” Camp said.

In personnel matters: • Camp asked the Board to approve the request from Lisa Duncan to resign her position as a school bus driver. Duncan has agreed to give a flexible two weeks’ notice and will continue to drive while district officials look for a replacement for her route.

• Camp presented a request from Amy Motz to accept a verbal resignation from Stefanie Ward as a speech teacher at North Elementary and South Terrace. Camp asked the Board to accept the verbal resignation so that officials may move forward in our search to fill her vacancy.

• Camp presented a request from Terri Waugaman to hire Jim Scheller and Jason Wilson as the basketball coaches for North Elementary School for the 2014-2015 basketball season. In addition, she asked to have Kendall Wilson as a volunteer girls’ basketball coach.

• Camp presented requests from Heath Howington to have Jason Simmons, Josh Smith, and Donald Toton as volunteer assistant coaches for the 2014-2015 boys’ basketball season. Howington would like Toton to assist with the junior high boys’ basketball program, Simmons to work with the freshmen boys’ basketball team and Smith to work with the JV and Varsity.

‘Bridge’ continued from Page A1 She stated the ballots will not be official and final until November 17.

The county’s IT administrator, Justin Faith of Automated Office Solutions (AOS) delivered an update on the status of the county’s systems. He said county employee computers are set to automatically update and are backed up daily to the county’s server. He urged employees to not save critical data on their personal hard drives.

The county is still waiting on a $5,000 reimbursement from Gibson County for work Posey County did in preparation for a trial Gibson County was slated to

have here. Instead the case was plead out after the work had already been completed. According to Auditor Kyle Haney, a court-order was sent to Gibson County in August to comply with the reimbursement request.

To date, the payment has not been received. The commissioners have agreed that until payment has been received, the county will not move forward with plans to move all county email “in-house” with their own server.

Steve Schenk, Director of the Posey County Highway Department, requested permission to advertise for annual supplies includ-

ing fuel, salt and pipe. The deadline for bids will be November 17, and commissioners will award the bids during their first meeting in December.

Prior to adjourning the meeting, Schmitz requested that all election signs should be moved to the field or yard side of the road. If they are placed in the ditch or in the chat by the road, the highway department is unable to mow. He stated that any signs not moved will be mowed down by the county highway department.

The next regular commissioner’s meeting will be held on Tuesday, October 28, at 9 a.m.

Warrum and Walker agreed to contact contractors for ballpark estimates on demolition costs so the council may plan appropriately.

Attorney Adam Farrar cautioned that depending on the cost estimates, the town may be required to advertise for bids to complete the project.

The council approved a request to waive golf cart registration fees for a special fundraising event scheduled October 25. Participants involved will be provided with information from Town Marshal Scott Champlin on rules and regulations concerning the operation of the golf carts. Walker also cautioned that underage and unlicensed drivers should not be driving golf carts in town. The fundraiser event will benefit the food pantry.

Each of the council members reported on topics concerning the departments they represent.

Linda Warrum announced EMCOR would like to do a water feasibility free of charge to the town. The council will discuss the results when the study is complete.

Warrum also informed the council of plans in Murphy Park regarding Arbor Day celebrations.

Karen Walker stated she has been working with Pat Callahan, CPA, regarding facts from a rate study he recently conducted for the town. She intends to have a draft copy of an ordinance to present to the council at their November meeting and hopes to vote on the ordinance in December. The ordinance will then go into effect in January.

The council agreed to appoint Sheryl Ballard to a three-year term on the board for the county’s new Innkeeper’s Tax. Ballard will be a part of the Visitor’s Convention Bureau that will have oversight and provide direction as funds from this tax are accumulated. The council must also find another individual to appoint for a twoyear term.

Andrew Wilson was the council’s choice to represent the council on the Harmony Way Bridge committee that has been created by the Posey County Commissioners. The council heard a report that 90 percent of the town’s storm water project is complete.

Beginning October 20, Main Street will be closed for three days in order to complete the project.

The next regular council meeting will be held on Thursday, November 20, at 5 p.m. in the town hall.

weight and election board members worry that voters could mistakenly ‘overvote’ and ultimately disqualify their ballot.

There are seven candidates for five positions spread between two districts. Voters will be allowed to vote for candidates in either district no matter what district they reside.

The only stipulation is that voters must not choose more than five candidates.

They can choose less than five and opt to only elect one person, for example. If an over-vote is discovered, only the North Posey School Board portion of their ballot will be thrown out.

Satellite voting will be held on October 25 through November 1, at the Poseyville Carnegie Public Library, The Workingman’s Institute in New Harmony, St. Peter’s United Church of Christ and the Courthouse.

She noted the election board had decided not to provide meals for election workers.

Instead, each will be given $18 for their meals that day.

She also explained the procedure to count the ballots for the North Posey School Board race. Due to the limited wording allowed on the ballot, Postlethe-

appointments until he had the opportunity to meet with each of the suggested members.

He stated he was still working to form a committee and had only spoken with Linda Henning. He was concerned whether she would be able to serve following some health issues.

He clarified that she did indicate to him her intent to serve on the committee.

He also noted that Henning informed him of possible federal money from the U.S. Department of Transportation. He explained he had difficulty opening an e-mailed document attachment and instead tried to access information online.

“We actually put in a request in the form of getting on their docket is really what it amounts to. We could be chosen out of that docket to work with receiving funds,” Walden said.

Walden added he had hoped to have suggested names typed and ready for the meeting but was unable to do so, thus the reason for wanting to table the action again.

Schmitz urged Walden to move forward and not draw out the decision for another two weeks. Walden stated he thought he could remember the names off the top of his head, but would rather have something drawn up in writing in order to ensure he had the names spelled correctly.

After some discussion, the commissioners agreed to remove David Brown as an appointee. All others aforementioned were approved.

OPINION

Facts are facts and are necessary to remain credible Last week’s edition of the Posey County News raised a lot of eyebrows and apparently raised the ire of some members of Posey County. The Posey County News has worked hand-in-hand with the Posey TRUTH...

County Sheriff and the Posey STRANGER County Prosecutor as well as THAN the Posey County Drug Task FICTION Force in an effort to rid our BY DAVE county of as much illegal PEARCE drug activity as possible.

I am sure the greatest majority of Posey County residents were glad to hear that arrests had been made in the county involving not only drug-related activity in one of the county’s best-know establishments in an effort to help eradicate that type of behavior, but an arrest was also made stemming from the 2012 break-in and theft of drugs from Chris’ Pharmacy in New Harmony. This comes on the heels of at least two other major drug stings in Posey County in the past three years alone. But I was surprised to find there were a few in the county who were not happy to have the news reported.

My source for any and all information used in the presentation of information regarding the arrests came directly from the Probably Cause Affidavits which are put together jointly by law enforcement and the staff at the Posey County Prosecutor’s office. This information is public record. If you

have questions regarding any portion of the stories, my source was law enforcement.

I learned this week that those who were glad to see more drug dealers taken off the street are apparently the silent majority. Within one full day of the story hitting the streets (by the way, the Posey County News did have exclusive arrest photos), the letters and phone calls began to come in.

I want to take this opportunity to express two things you need to know about me. I am human enough to be sorry that your son, brother, friend, sister, mom, dad ever was caught up in meth use to the point they were arrested for its use or sale. It is my understanding that one can become addicted to meth after only one use. I feel your pain. I have relatives and friends who are currently or have been addicted to drugs of many types. The anguish and pain caused not only to the individual but also to the family sometimes seems unbearable.

But the second thing you need to know about me is that I have been involved in a professional journalism position for some 30 years. If I am going to continue to have the mutual respect of law enforcement and the prosecutor, I have to uphold the highest standards of journalism. Every one in my two stories can be attributed directly to the arrest

affidavits.

But after a few conversations that have taken place this week, I want to make a few things perfectly clear: I am sorry that illegal drug activity was allegedly going on in your place of business.

However, I am not the cause of that drug activity. I was never even aware of it until it was brought to my attention through reading through court news that is public record.

I will take no blame for reporting the facts, even if they include mentioning the name of your establishment. Although the majority of your employees are probably law-abiding citizens and make up the silent majority, I will not take responsibility or criticism for reporting that this happened in your establishment. Some of your employees apparently made bad choices that have now affected your business in a negative way.

I also am not responsible for the fact that the public now knows that your loved one is involved with this type of activity. One particular comment showed up on our Facebook page which suggested our publication has become a “he said, she said’ publication because of the revelation the sources of certain information along with certain names was mentioned in the story. The only ‘he said’ would be from the public record documents from the Posey County Prosecutor.

Again, I do not feel good about the fact that someone you know and love was in-

volved. But I think you have to look at the situation realistically and realize that whether our newspaper reported it or not, illegal drug activity was going on. My job is to uphold a high standard of journalism in reporting the facts.

The only person I heard from all week who could have had a legitimate gripe was the New Harmony American Legion. I agree the Legion has gone to great lengths over the past two or three years to clean up its clientele and its reputation. It is unfortunate that the individuals involved chose your business as a meeting place. While I was told to print a retraction, I cannot retract facts. However, I can say that according to the information I gathered, there is no information that says the meeting was held inside the Legion and there is nothing that would indicate the Legion had any knowledge or any part in any of the activity. It is just unfortunate that two of the individuals chose your business as a place to meet. Please do not hold the Legion as anything except yet another victim of drug activity.

Again, I did not make your loved one try meth for the first time or make meth or sell meth or meet others to sell it to. However, it is my job to report the facts surrounding the case and to build the story with enough factual information to give readers an opportunity to understand how it all came about.

Thanks for understanding.

Letters to the Editor GOP chair claims dirty politics Dear Editor: Recently, the Indiana State Democrat Party sent out a mailer on behalf of State Representative District 76 candidate Tony Goben attacking State Representative Wendy McNamara for receiving a decrease in the assessed value of her property by approximately $94,000, resulting in a reduction in her actual tax bill of more than $700. The piece also stated that the Posey County Republican Assessor had altered the assessment and payment amounts without Wendy appearing before the tax appeal board. The implication was she had received preferential treatment from Nancy Hoehn, the Republican Posey County Assessor.

This is a complete distortion of the truth in hopes of political gain. Here are facts: 1. The reduction in the assessed value was the result of a mandated statewide reassessment that occurred in 2010, and which resulted in a whole host of individuals receiving reduced assessed values (likely including many of you reading this).

2. While it is true that Wendy’s assessment went down 27 percent, the property where

Tony Goben currently resides saw a decrease of 22 percent in assessed value during the same timeframe, which means Mr. Goben is paying less property tax currently as a result of the 2010 reassessment.

3. These reassessments were performed by a third party vendor on Posey County’s behalf.

4. The fieldwork and the calculation of the reassessed value were done and posted to Wendy McNamara’s property record card on November 22, 2010 during the administration of previous Democrat Assessor, Kris Carroll, and prior to Wendy McNamara and Nancy Hoehn taking office.

These types of distortions represent the worst in politics. We should be focusing on the issues and what is in the best interest of Posey County and not personal attacks and whisper campaigns. The people of Posey County deserve better than this.

Greg Newman Posey County Republican Chairman

Demo chair claims records not made available Letter to the Editor, Recently (on or about September 4) I began the process of legally seeking informa-

tion from the Black Township Trustee’s Office, concerning the use of our taxpayer dollars. I made these requests based on con-

cerns that were brought to my attention by some Posey County citizens. I have also made the same request of three other Township Trustees here in Posey County. As of the writing of this letter, I have not been able to receive or view the requested information from the Black Township Trustee’s Office.

The three other Trustee Offices responded immediately to my request and provided the information without delay.

On September 8, I had a lengthy conversation with the Black Township Trustee (Mrs. Hoehn-Suits) about specific public records and information relevant to those concerns.

At that time, Mrs. Hoehn-Suits denied my request, stating that she ‘did not know if she could give me the requested information.’

After speaking with other township trustees, I was informed that the public is entitled to the information I have been legally requesting. To date I have made one verbal and two (2) written requests, and have been rebuffed.

As of the publishing date of this letter, I will have made, again, a third (3rd) specific request for these public records, since I have not yet received any access to the public documents and information I have requested from the Black Township Trustee’s office.

I have no personal feelings in this mat-

ter just general concerns, nor do I have any personal issues towards Mrs. Hoehn-Suits.

In the past, when Mrs. Hoehn-Suits spoke in front of the Mount Vernon City Council on an issue, I voiced my support for her position and I have always wished her well. I know some people will attempt to spin this as ‘political.’ However, since these issues deal with tax-payer funds and an office that is elected, anyone can make that remark about anything and it could be labeled as ‘true,’ but that doesn’t make this issue any less important.

This issue is about public access to public records to discover facts in order to address concerns of myself and other taxpayers.

This is only about the transparency of public service. Four years ago, many candidates for office, Mrs. Hoehn-Suits among them, campaigned on transparency and openness.

At various times, they quietly insinuated that a host of ill practices were committed by various holders of public office. Deeds, not words, tend to show where a person is truly coming from. The taxpayers deserve nothing less than the ability to see where their money is spent.

That is all I am asking for.

Sincerely, Ed Adams

the wealthy rancher with rage.

Jenny told Ed to get the buckboard and team hooked up while she and Emma prepared a lunch of bacon wrapped in cornpone with sweet tea to drink. Because they were going to be away from nosey onlookers the women did not worry about keeping separate food and utensils from Ed Hill. After years in their jobs they were not fastidious about whether Ed’s blackness might rub off on them.

Ed drove the horse from the front seat and Emma and Jenny sat on the seat behind him.

The picnic basket rode between the seats as Jenny teased Hill about his muscles being too large for the thin cotton shirt and pants and his hair looking like buffalo wool. Hill just generally took it because he knew Jenny would stand up for him against anyone else and because he was happy just being close to Emma. He did gently retort that, “Miss Jenny ought ‘ta member she talkin ‘ta da only one in de wagon dat could fix it if a wheel come off out here on dis prairie running over all deese blasted sandstones.”

When they arrived at the spring, Ed unhitched the horse and let it drink while Jenny and Emma spread the blue and white checked tablecloth upon the sandstone ledge ringing the spring. Emma had packed a jar of wild plum preserves she had canned the previous fall, and the three of them sat dangling their feet in the cool water as they ate bacon and cornpone slathered with tangy preserves while they passed the jar of sweet tea around.

When Ed left the two women by the spring to explore the old shack that served the ranch as a line shed, Jenny said, “You know he can’t pry his eyes off of you when he thinks we’re not watching him, Emma. He is too shy and polite to ever say anything, but he really likes you.”

“Oh, Jenny, don’t be silly. Ed knows about us and he knows what I do. He’s just our friend.”

“Well, he would like to be more than your friend. He just knows the white men would string him up for trying to be with a white woman, even one like us.”

Emma was surprised to hear herself linked to Ed in such a way. She had been so relieved to escape from William Combs and so excited to be loved by Jenny she had no thoughts of men as anything but customers since they had left Indiana. It made no difference to Emma who or what any man was; she wanted none of them. She did care for Ed as a friend, and he was strong and kind and looked out for her.

“I know you desperately want a child, Emma. I do too. Have you given up on ever getting pregnant again?”

“I guess I could. It would probably just happen eventually. But, we have to keep working.

How would I know who the father was? I sure wouldn’t want to have a baby by most of the men we see.”

“Well, I could support us alone for a couple of months. But we’d still have little choice in who it was. What we need is to be sure we, especially you, would want to have a child by one of these wranglers or maybe your rich rancher.

We know he’d never acknowledge the child or help, but we would at least know what kind of person the baby’s father was. Wiley Dillard might not produce too ugly a son. I have wondered why he and Dalia haven’t had children.

They have been married for at least two years since Dillard’s first wife died before we came to Pawhuska. Of course, he didn’t have any by her either. Maybe he’s not a good candidate.”

“Quit it, Jenny! I don’t want to have his child. No, I want my son’s father to be strong and kind. It might be nice if he weren’t married. Of course, girls like us don’t have many choices. One thing about Ed Hill, I bet a son by him would never be bullied by the likes of William Combs and the rest of that lynch mob back in Indiana.”

Unanimous For Murder, a novel, chapter five Jenny knew the source of Emma’s melancholy that arose when Emma’s body was not busy. William Combs had forced the sixteen year old Emma to abort their child in GAVEL 1877, and Emma could not GAMUT forgive herself. She dreamed of what her child would have BY JUDGE looked like and what he, JIM REDWINE Emma was convinced it was a boy, would have meant to Emma.

While she was usually cheerful, seeing mothers with small children was difficult for her. Jenny knew Emma loved her and took no pleasure from men, but she also knew Emma wanted more from life than what they had. And since Jenny had herself aborted two children during her career, she understood Emma’s gnawing hunger. Jenny had been able to make her accommodations as the years passed, especially after she and Emma had found each other. But Emma’s young body ached for childbirth and her mind gave her no peace.

Emma was the victim of her biology and William Combs who had destroyed any desire she had for men, if money were not the object.

Jenny and Emma often discussed this void in both of their lives and dreamed of ways to fill it. With Jenny, her self-induced abortions had assured she could no longer bear children.

Emma was still young and Combs had, at least, taken her to a physician friend of his in nearby Evansville for the procedure. Emma’s permanent damage was only to her psyche.

This topic filled their thoughts that Thursday in May, 1881 when the women had no business appointments and decided to have a picnic at their favorite spot on the Tall Grass Prairie about eight miles north of Pawhuska. A spring formed a pool of bubbling cool water that rose through the sandstone and created a rippling stream among the blackjacks and cottonwood trees.

Emma had been taken to the spring by the middle aged rancher, Wiley Dillard, who owned the spring and the fifty thousand acres surrounding it. The ranch was within the Osage Nation between Pawhuska and the small settlement started by Jake Bartles just east of the Nation. Dillard had convinced himself he had a special relationship with the lithe and beautiful young Emma. His wife, Dahlia, was about the same age as Emma, but unless she wanted to pry some money from the controlling and stingy Dillard, Dahlia rebuffed most of her husband’s advances and kept the insanely jealous rancher guessing by her actions around the ranch hands and even Ed Hill when he would work on the ranch when extra help was needed.

However, Hill did his best to keep his distance as the lessons learned from the 1878 lynchings in Mount Vernon, Indiana were seared into his memory. Further, although he thought no one but he was aware, Hill had a burning desire for Emma who not only was close, beautiful and constantly nice to Ed, but who also saved his life and still held the knowledge to cost him his life.

As for the rancher’s wife, she was well aware of what her husband thought was a secret relationship with Emma. She found it amusing that her stingy husband had to pay for what she gave to the occasional cowboy. She particularly enjoyed fantasies about Ed Hill and the reaction her flirting with Hill had on her husband who had always hated Negroes, especially since he had fought for the Confederacy under Cherokee General Stand Watie in a losing cause. However, Dillard could not fathom any White woman, especially his pretty young wife, having anything to do with a Black man.

The mere possibility, fueled by his wife’s occasional attentions to the passive Ed Hill, filled

Taylor urges North Posey to promote for growth

By Dave Pearce The School Board of the Metropolitan School District of North Posey met on Wednesday, October 15, 2014, at the school district office.

The Executive Director of the Posey County Economic Development partnership was on had, at his request, to familiarize board members with his job responsibilities and how they can work together. John Taylor told the board that promoting the good things that are happening in Posey County’s two excellent school systems should be touted not only locally, but also on the world-wide web.

“We have the task of bringing in new development, new industry and new jobs into the county,” Taylor told the board and 15 or 20 concerned patrons in attendance.

Taylor told those in attendance that the school corporations in the county are critical to attracting any new industry or jobs into the county because companies hire people to investigate potential economic development sites long before the actual site choice is made. Taylor stressed that one of the first things companies examine is the school systems in a particular area.

“Along with available land locations and low taxes, companies look at available workers and skilled workers available for the jobs they will offer,” Taylor said. “We are blessed because we have the port along with several industries.

Posey County has the third highest average wages in the State of Indiana. That means there are only two counties in Indiana where workers make any more money than they make here. We also have the highest GDP output in the State of Indiana. What this means is that we do a whole lot of things with our hands and make a whole lot of products that are valuable and we send them out to the world.”

In 2009, Indiana had the 17th highest GDP of states among the United States while nearby Illinois was fifth. Kentucky was 28th.

Taylor went on to tell the board that Midwest Fertilizer is finally prepared to make their announcement regarding the $2.5 billion plant they are planning to build just southwest of Mount Vernon. That announcement is expected around January 1. The first employees to be hired by the company can expect to make in excess of $85 thousand per year while the next 200 employees can expect to make somewhere between $55 and $60 thousand per year.

Taylor went on to explain the combination of agricultural and industrial jobs made Posey County a very good choice for the Pakistanibased company.

But one of the things that concern potential Posey County developers is the fact that there are a fairly high number of industrial and highpaying jobs that are not filled now, much less

when the new industry comes into Posey.

“The unemployment rate three or four years ago was eight, nine, ten or 11 percent,” Taylor said. “Now Indiana is at six percent and we have companies in this county that are dying to find people who possess a skill. B&W will start welders at $60 thousand a year, if they could only find them. SABIC has jobs that pay even more than that and they can’t find the people with the skills to fill them.”

Taylor made reference to the ‘brain drain’ that is often referenced when the brightest students attend well-known colleges and take jobs in other places that will not bring them back ‘home.’ He indicated that local schools are at least in part responsible for finding a way to correct this problem.

“I think about the people that have graduation from our school systems and are now living in Texas or California and living very successful lives,” Taylor said. “If we could get them to come back, we could say ‘this is a place we need to invest it,’ ‘this is a place we need to get back to.’”

Taylor said local schools need to find a way to keep all graduates informed with what is going on in Posey County.

“This fertilizer plant is the single biggest project going on in the United States right now,” Taylor told the crowd. “They chose us and there’s a reason. We have a port and we have a river. We have a lot of grain in the area and a lot of farmers in the area to make fertilizer for.

But when they came to town, they came up and drove around the schools and took inventory of what was available in local school systems… the grounds, room for expansion, they looked at everything. We must have impressed them.”

Taylor closed with the idea that companies bringing high-paying jobs to a community like Posey County is life-changing. He went on to explain that Ivy Technical College has agreed to take on the responsibility of training the first employees of Midwest so that when the plant opens, the workers will already be trained.

Taylor agreed to help provide members of

the board and school administration with ideas and companies that specialize in letting the world know.

Camp said the new school board, when elected, will face the challenge of letting local and global outlets know about what is available in Posey County in the area of schools.

Bryan A. Ruder, Financial Advisor, Edward Jones You won’t see it on the calendar, and it doesn’t inspire any greeting cards, but National Save for Retirement Week is here again. The goal of this week is self-explanatory, but what does it mean to you? Are you vulnerable to the possibility of reaching retirement without sufficient financial resources? If so, how can you ease this risk?

Let’s look at the “vulnerability” issue first. How prepared you’ll be for retirement — or at least how prepared you think you’ll be — seems to depend, not surprisingly, on whether you are currently participating in a retirement plan such as a 401(k) or an IRA. Consider these statistics, taken from the Employee Benefit Research Institute’s 2014 Retirement Confidence Survey: • Nearly half of workers without a retirement plan were “not at all confident” about their financial security in retirement, compared with only about one in 10 with a plan.

• 36 percent of workers say they have less than $1,000 in savings and investments. Of this group, 73 percent said they

and their spouse did not have a retirement plan, compared to just 11 percnet of those with a plan.

Clearly, it pays to contribute to your 401(k) or other employer-sponsored plan, such as a 403(b) or 457(b). And, even if you do have a 401(k) or similar plan, you may want to consider funding a Roth or traditional IRA. Besides contributing as much as you can afford to your retirement plans, what else can you do to help boost your retirement savings?

For one thing, try to control your debts. It’s not always easy, but try to consistently live within your means and make wise spending decisions. Every dollar you don’t spend on debt payments could be going toward your retirement savings.

While it’s essential that you save and invest for retirement, you can’t forget other objectives you may have, such as helping pay for your children’s college education. Of course, if you’re like the vast majority of people, you don’t have unlimited resources — so working to-

ward two major financial goals at the same time can certainly be challenging. Nonetheless, a college education can still be a springboard to a successful career, so you may well feel that you should do everything within your power to help your Jeremy Brown, of Browns Construction digs while Kevin Schapker and Lawrence kids through school.

How can you balance the Bruce of Armor Fire Protection install a new fire suppression system at The Charles two important goals of invest- Ford Memorial Home. Photo by Zach Straw ing for your retirement and for your children’s college expenses? Your best move may be to start saving for college just as soon as possible — even when your children are quite young.

By starting early, you’ll put time on your side, so you can put away smaller amounts each year than if you waited until the years right before your kids head off to school. Consider investing annually whatever amounts you can afford to a tax-advantaged college savings vehicle, such as a 529 plan.

By investing as much as much as possible in your retirement plan, managing your debt load and balancing your retirement goals with other key objectives, you’ll be honoring the message of National Save for Retirement Week.

‘Cynthiana’ continued from Page A1

thiana’s status as having a flood plain area within the town had changed after she had submitted paperwork to the Indiana Department of Natural Resources (DNR).

She was notified by Darren Pearson, Water Planner for the Indiana Department of Natural Resources (DNR) that this piece of land is in a flood plain area and as such, the town should adopt an ordinance to join the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP).

A prepared ordinance and resolution was sent for Cynthiana’s approval, however town council president Scott Cox as well as members Gary Martin and Patti Wilson were hesitant to sign the document with so many unanswered questions.

They wondered whether participation in the program was mandated or voluntary and whether this would cause an increase in homeowner’s insurance premiums. There was also some question as to whether the designated area was actually included within the town’s limits. The land is so close to the edge of town that it was difficult to ascertain on the map whether it was actually inside or outside of the limit.

Attorney Jeff Ahlers recommended the council contact the DNR and the county surveyor for further clarification before signing the documents. A special meeting could be convened prior to the November 5, deadline if the board decides to participate in the program.

Following the meeting, clerk-treasurer Greta Mounts stated the county surveyor confirmed the property does exist within the town limit.

During a phone interview with Pearson, he explained the new maps do, indeed, show the land as being within a flood plain area. As such, it will be limited for any type of future development. According to Pearson, if the Town of Cynthiana adopts the ordinance and participates in the NFIP, it will only benefit the citizens of Cynthiana.

“This is not going to force homeowners to get flood insurance. It is a completely voluntary program,” Pearson said.

In fact, Pearson advised that participation in the program is actually beneficial to the residents.

Residents can purchase, on a voluntary basis, what is called a ‘preferred risk policy’ at a reasonable rate since the

town itself will be classified as a low risk zone. He explained this will protect homeowners from potential risk from any unmapped flood zone such as culverts or ditches or a back up from storm water drains that could flood and cause damage to their homes or property.

However, if the town council does not sign and adopt the ordinance prior to the November 5, effective date of the new flood plain maps, it will lose this opportunity.

Pearson further stated, “If they don’t participate in this program, in the event of a federally declared disaster, residents will not be able to obtain a loan or other monetary assistance from the small business administration.”

According to documents obtained by the DNR, it states, “Through the NFIP, property owners in participating communities are able to insure against flood losses. By employing wise floodplain management, a participating community can reduce risk and protect its citizens and the community against much of the devastating financial losses resulting from flood disasters.”

Bourne was also present at the meeting to ask the board to pass approval of a consolidated zoning ordinance amendment that will allow residential storage structures such as garages or pole barns to be constructed on lots that do not currently have a principal use or house.

The current ordinance does not allow a storage structure to be placed on property by itself. A home must exist on the property. Bourne explained that some residents in Mount Vernon own small properties that are not large enough for a home and the storage structure. It is through their interest, that discussions began a year ago to create this amendment.

The amendment allows storage structures on lots in the following zoning areas: Agricultural, Residential Townhouses (RT); two-family homes (R2), multifamily residences (RM and R3). A solitary pole barn or garage will not be allowed in areas zoned as R1, or single family residences. The amendment further states that those interested in constructing these types of structures will still be required to appear before the zoning board to request a special use permit.

‘Pranks’ continued from Page A1 old New Harmony School building every year. “I have no idea how they got it up there,” she laughed. “But they did.”

Harry Linville used to tell the story of the time in 1916 when he was in ninth grade and helped some senior boys carry Frank Bailey’s display wagon from his hardware store (where Owen’s Market used to be) across the street to where the Events in Harmony business is at the former cinema.

They carried it piece by piece up the steep stairs to the roof and had it ready to go.

“All you needed was horses,” he said. Mr. Bailey was furious, found out who did it and they had to take it apart and carry it back the next day.

Merilee Crispino went up to Griffin with her teen age friends to toilet paper the math teacher’s house. They were unable to do so and were disappointed. Her male friends decided to rip out corn stalks from a field and put them in rows across a rural road in Griffin. Drivers were puzzled to find that a corn field was there in the middle of the road, thought they reached a dead end, and had to turn around. Others remember having a stuffed body on a rope that would swing down on unwary drivers on roads in Griffin and Stewartsville.

Outhouses were all over the county back then and tipping them was a common prank. Herb Baker and Merle Moore got a big surprise when they tipped one and a man was in it. Most are never caught in this tomfoolery, but Verlin Bueller lost his school locker key when he tipped one over and it was traced back to him for cleanup.

Wilma Joyce Bailey remembers that every year there was an outhouse put by the bank at the Corner of Church and Main Street in New Harmony. Some years, there were six or seven in a row with funny signs on them.

Jackie Straw was a teenager in high school when she and some friends rode up to Maple Hill Cemetery at Halloween.

When they got to the top of the hill, her male ‘friends’ tied them up to a tall tombstone with ropes and left them screaming as they drove away. Panicked and afraid in the dark, they were unaware that the guys

The board approved the amendment.

Board members discussed the possible sale of the water tower property to Jonathan Shappell. He was present during the September meeting and expressed interest in purchasing the small property estimated at approximately 30 feet by 30 feet in order to “square up” his property.

Attorney Ahlers provided board members with information on the process that will require a legal survey, notification to any other adjacent landowners, a clarification of the legal description of the property and advertisement of the proposed sale in the newspaper.

Board members agreed to move forward in the process.

Town employee Steve Sims reported that a recent Indiana Department of Environmental Management report showed the town is in compliance with no violations.

Sims also asked the board for permission to engage Ahlers with assistance against Triton Services, a company that was hired to complete work with the town’s wastewater lift stations. Sims explained he has tried to contact Triton Services on several occasions. His phone calls are not returned and he has only received e-mail responses from the company stating they are trying to locate a new contractor who will perform the work.

Allegedly the company performed the work using federal grant funds. The liners of the lift stations needed to be repaired before the end of the 10-year warranty, which has already expired. The company was contacted and it was learned they no longer perform this type of service. They indicated they would locate a new contractor to perform the warranty work. Sims stated he “has been given the run around.”

Ahlers requested to see the contract and all paperwork associated with the project. Sims agreed to provide him with the necessary information.

Board members agreed to hand out Halloween candy to trick-or-treaters at the town park on Friday, October 31, from 6 p.m.- 8 p.m.

The next board meeting will be held on Tuesday, November 11, at 6 p.m. in the town hall.

‘INDOT’ continued from Page A1 drove around below the hill, got out of the car and quietly climbed back uphill to jump out at them of the darkness. “Let me tell you, I was scared out of my mind that night,” Straw recalled.

Jackie’s mother, Ann Baker, told a fun story that involved the local town policeman and his small car. “New Harmony’s Main Café was open Halloween night until 7 p.m. The officer was inside and while he ate, we put his little bitty cop car up on concrete blocks. Then we started to honk our horns and make a ruckus in town.

He hopped in his car to chase us and he couldn’t go anywhere with his back wheels spinning in the air.”

Donna Creek, Jayne Overton and Sally Huck recall ‘tick tacking’ was popular at Halloween. Notches were cut into old thread spools and string was wrapped around them with a pencil in the hole. Then it was put up to a window or screen door and flipped down making a loud clacking noise. Monkey shiners would run away fast or hide under the window.

Sisters Nancy Weinzapfel and Carol Reynolds are famed for their Halloween pranks from setting up water beds complete with sleepers in a person’s driveway, forking, and toilet papering Main Street almost pure white with the stuff streaming from all the wires across the street. Toilet paper seems to be the prank of choice today with most teenagers. Ken Meyer walked down the street when his house was being toilet papered long ago, found the car they were driving with the keys in it, moved the car to an unknown spot, and made the pranksters clean it up before it was returned to them.

Linda Alsop invited kids into her home for a treat and when she went downstairs to get cokes, they tricked her, toilet papered everything, and left.

Pranks will always be part of the Halloween season, but hopefully destruction will not. It is always sad when pumpkins and personal property are destroyed.

“You just can’t do these kinds of things anymore,” Ann Baker said. “We had a lot of fun and still remember them today.”

earlier prevented from seeking INDOT funding for the project as it was in competition for Indiana’s Stellar Communities designation.

“Investing in our community is vital to compete in today’s market place so as to attract new investment and talent,” said John Tucker, Mayor of Mount Vernon. “Over the past two years, Mount Vernon has seen multiple projects take place because of strategic partnerships like that we’ve forged with INDOT; and today we celebrate another success of moving our community forward.”

Vikings manhandle Pike Central, charge into tourney

By Dave Pearce It was senior night at North Posey High School on Friday evening. The 5-3 North Posey Vikings were facing the 1-7 Pike Central Chargers. You would expect a one-sided game.

And you would be correct.

The Vikings, behind the strong running performance of a finally-healthy Lance Inkenbrandt defeated the Chargers 4514 in a game that probably was not as close as the score night indicate.

Although the Chargers did score twine in the final period against the Viking junior varsity squad, all North Posey seniors saw plenty of action in the first three periods as they rolled up 409 yards of total offense on the night.

“We played a very, very solid first half and got into good position there at half-time,” Viking head coach Paul Rynkiewich said following the game. “We got all the seniors in and they played a lot. But there in the third quarter, we didn’t let them come back in at all.”

But by the third quarter, it was too late for the Chargers.

The Vikings wasted little time getting on the board as quarterback James Marshall found a familiar target in Bryce Martin just four minutes into the game and with 7:59 remaining in the first period, Martin went in from 15 yards out to give the Vikings the early lead. Just four-and-a-half minutes later, the Vikings scored again on a four-yard run by sophomore Dalton Rankin and suddenly the Vikings were ahead 14-0.

But from the sidelines, the Chargers appeared to have good size as well as some skilled players. They ran multiple sets which could help the Vikings as they now enter sectional action, hosting the South Spencer Rebels in a rematch of the season opener. The opener was in Reo while this time, the senior-laden Rebels, who are also healthy again, will come to North Posey with the end of the season on the line.

“Pike Central’s line is huge and they have a good runner in their No. 3,” Rynkiewich said, complimenting the Chargers.

Despite the outcome being what most folks expected against the Chargers, Rynkiewich expressed pride in his team for going out and setting the pace and getting the job done.

“We did what you have to do in that situation. We went out and put them away early,” he said. “We played a very good first half and held ourselves to our standard.”

Despite strong offensive play, the Charger defense forced the Vikings to punt on the first play of the second period. A good punt rolled dead at the 20. But the defense picked up the slack.

But just when the Chargers thought they had things rolling a little following a first down, senior Zack Wargel got into the backfield and nearly took the ball on the hand-off, resulting in a six-yard loss for the Chargers. That was one of six tackles for the tough senior. Derek Lindauer proved to be a thorn in the side for the Chargers, as well, as he had five solo tackles and four tackle assists on the defensive side of the ball.

The Chargers went for a fake punt on fourth down and it was unsuccessful as the Vikings took over on the Charger 24. On the first play from Scrimmage, Inkenbrandt again got good blocking and with his strength and speed, took the ball in from 24 yards out to give the Vikings a 21-0 lead.

But the Vikings were not finished yet. After stuffing the Charger offense, Marshall found Drew Cumbee for a 33-yard touchdown catch to expand the lead to 28-0.

Following another stop, The Vikings were driving as time was running out and with no time showing on the first-half clock, senior Bo Cox got the first field goal of the year for the Vikings as his 38-yard attempt sailed through the uprights to

Jasper takes Wildcat battle

By Brandon Cole The (4-5) Mount Vernon Wildcats were outscored 35-0 at (8-1) Jasper, but are in good position to make a run in the post-season.

There were steady offensive performances and a few big plays, but the Wildcats were not able to get on to the scoreboard. “A shutout is kind of misleading,” said Mount Vernon head football coach Paul Maier. “We moved the ball pretty well and we did pretty well in other facets of the game.”

Cam Maier rushed the ball 22 times for 103 yards. Riley Snodgrass found Jaycob Stewart on a 40-yard connection. The Wildcats did not throw any interceptions or lose any fumbles. The plays were there, but so were the penalties (6-55 yards). Jasper played a relatively clean game with a total of two penalties for 19 yards.

On the defensive side of the ball, Mount Vernon held Jasper to 137 rushing yards.

“Defensively, we played pretty well,” said Maier. “We made silly mistakes. It wasn’t the effort, but the mistakes. These things are easy to rectify.”

Tate Blessinger opened up the scoring on a five-yard run with 7:28 remaining in the opening quarter. The Wildcats allowed one more score before the half. Bea Moore broke through the plane of the end zone with 10:32 left in the second quarter. The Wildcats were down 14-0, but far from out of the contest.

Nolan Ahrens threw his first touchdown of the game with 10:30 remaining in the third quarter. “He’s the best quarterback we have seen all year,” said Maier. “Ahrens is a coaches son. He understands everything in a different way than most players. He did a good job of taking what we gave him.”

Ahrens finished the day 11-14, for 154 yards and two touchdowns. “We need to work on some coverages to advance in the playoffs,” said Maier. “The defensive backs need to be a little more aggressive. We did get better as the game went on.”

Blessinger ran a touchdown in from 30-yards out with 7:36 left in the third quarter. Alles caught another touchdown pass

Each band would be judged on three different categories in Music and Visual: Music Individual, Music Ensemble, Music Effect, Visual Individual, Visual Ensemble, and Visual Effect, in hopes of receiving a Gold rating. At the awards ceremony each band was told in performance order whether they received a gold, silver or bronze rating. Then the top ten bands were announced, again, in performance order.

According to Indiana Marching.com here are the results in score order for Class D: First

place Forest Park - Gold; second Springs Valley - Gold; third South Spencer - Gold; fourth Clay City - Gold; fifth Paoli - Gold; sixth Mater Dei - Gold; seventh Monrovia - Gold; eighth North Posey - Gold; ninth Crawford County Gold; tenth Orleans - Silver; eleventh Tell City - Silver; twelfth Henryville - Silver; thirteenth Perry Central - Silver; and fourteenth Shawe Memorial - Bronze.

Vikings take one of two marathon matches in final week

By Dave Pearce The North Posey Lady Vikings had only two matches this week but played as much volleyball as they often do in three or four matches. That’s because in critical battles against county rival Mount Vernon and PAC rival Gibson Southern, each match went to a fifth game. The Vikings split the close matches, edging Mount Vernon and being edged by Gibson Southern.

Coach Natalie Macaulay was pleased with the Viking play in both matches as the Lady Vikings put in on the line and left it all on the floor in both games.

After going five long and close games with Mount Vernon on Tuesday, the Vikings again found themselves in a battle for survival on Thursday. The Vikings were in a battle for the Pocket Athletic Conference title as a win over Gibson Southern would force a three-way tie for the crown.

However, it wasn’t to be.

After falling behind in the opening set 10-7, Barnard called a time out in an attempt to rally the troops. A couple of mini-runs sparked by a quick-set to Rachel Ungetheim and a down-theline kill by Brooke Bender was brought to a halt by a service error. The second run came as Abbi Voegel was serving and a quick set to Kristin Schorr, an unreturnable serve, an unbelievable dig by Madison Feldhake, and a Gibson Southern hitting error brought the Lady Vikings back to within 18-17, forcing a Gibson Southern time out.

After falling behind 23-21, an Eli Schapker serve brought about a hitting error and a surprise quick set tip from Schapker to Ungetheim caught the Lady Titans off-guard to pull to within 32-22.

The Vikings finally pulled even at 24 behind a strong serve

by Voegel but a serving error handed the ball back to the Lady Titans who promptly put a 26-24 end to the first game on the strength of an unreturnable serve.

Game two was much like game one as the Vikings took early leads but it took a Bender kill to bring the score back to even at 5-5. The teams battled back and forth until the Vikings took their first lead since early on when Eli Schapker’s block gave the Vikings a 10-9 lead.

Ally Brandenstein’s kill gave the Vikings an 11-10 lead before the Titans went on a little run and tied the score at both 11 and 12. The Vikings battled back and tied the score at both 14 and 15 before the lady Titans took a slight upper-hand and maintained a one- to three-point lead throughout the remainder of the second game to take a 2-0 lead on the strength of a 25-21 victory in game two.

So was it merely academic at this point? If you thought Macaulay’s troops were going to lay down, you were mistaken.

The Vikings began fighting their way back into the contest and after leading most of the first 12 to 14 points, the Titans finally caught them at 15. But a Voegel serve and a pair of blocks in the same point, first by Kristin Schorr and then by Cydney Cole, followed by another Schorr block and a quick-set

to Schorr resulted in a 19-15 Viking lead and a Gibson Southern time out.

Several times in the game, the Titans were able to pull back to within one point but each time, the Lady Vikings had the answer and took game three 25-21.

In game four, it appeared the momentum had swung.

The Vikings led by as much as 9-1 and never really were threatened as they maintained a lead of nearly 10 points throughout game four to force a fifth and final game, the final point on a Kristin Schorr kill that resulted in a 25-14 win.

The Vikings took early leads of as much as 5-2 in the early going during the fifth game that went only to 15 points. Ungetheim stepped up and had three big kills in a row to help build the lead only to have the Titans fight back to tie the game at 5-5.

A Schorr kill and a great serve gave the Vikings a 7-5 lead before a nasty service error opened the door once again for the Titans. Following the service error, the Titans went from a 7-6 deficit to an 11-9 lead before Macaulay took a time out. But in this game of momentum, the Titans had regained their swagger.

They moved ahead 13-10 before Macaulay took her second and final time out.

Following the final time out, an Ungetheim block, a Titan hitting error, a quick-set from Schapker to Ungetheim and an unreturnable Voegel serve had pulled the Vikings to within 1413 before the Titans took a time out.

The Titans then came back and got the winning point, only because they got to 15 first, at 15-13.

The stats of the Gibson Southern game were not available at press time but the Mount Vernon stats from earlier in the week showed a very similar picture, aside from service errors. The Vikings did not commit a service error in that five-game match and came out on top.

In reverse fashion, the Vikings took games one and two by scores of 26-24 and 27-25 before the Lady Wildcats fought back to claim game three 25-29 and game four 25-17, forcing the fifth game.

North Posey outlasted the Wildcats in a thriller 18-16, giving both teams confidence heading into sectional week.

Against the Wildcats, sophomore Kristin Schorr had an uncanny 26 kills on the night while sophomore teammate Ally Brandenstein had 16. Ungetheim finished with a steady 10 and Bender had eight. Colbert finished with four and Schapker had two.

Ungetheim was active on the net, credited with five block assists and Colbert had four. Schapker and Schorr had two apiece.

There were only three service aces for the Vikings and no service errors. Alli Graff was credited with two of the three aces.

Schorr and Feldhake finished with 24 digs apiece while Schapker had 19, Graff had 17, Bender had 15, and Voegel had 11.

The two very close matches should have prepared the Vikings for sectional play opening Tuesday evening at Forest Park.

Wildcats rebound from heart-breaker to trounce Warriors

By Brandon Cole The last set saw over 10 lead changes or ties as the North Posey Lady Vikings just edged Mount Vernon at home on Tuesday during senior night in five sets (26-24, 2725, 20-25, 17-25, 18-16) at Mount Vernon.

This game was everything one would expect from an inter-county rivalry.

Mike and Debbie Dick escorted their daughter and lone Mount Vernon senior, Andrea Dick. “She has been waiting four years to play her senior year, but now that it is here, she does not want it to be over, because her teammates have made this year the best senior year possible,” said Debbie.

Some tears over took Andrea as her teammates formed two lines for her to walk through with her parents. Andrea was given some gifts and introduced to the home crowd. “I’m so thankful to my parents who have supported me over the years,” said Andrea. “Playing North Posey on senior night made it that much more intense because of the rivalry.”

Macey Montgomery’s kill put the Wildcats up 3-2 in the first set. They went on to score eight-consecutive points, most of which was served by Montgomery.

Madison Feldhake served for the Lady Vikings, as they took over the contest 19-17.

Coach Michelle Northrop did not like what she was seeing and called a time out.

Drew McNamara took the ball, with the

set tied at 24, and sent it flying across the net.

Kristin Schorr spiked the ball over the net, as North Posey teetered ahead. The Lady Vikings won the next point and the first set.

McNamara’s block was a momentum booster for Mount Vernon, as it tied the second set up at 24. “McNamara is my other big middle hitter with Alexis Nall,” said Northrop. “Drew is very quiet but is like a gentle giant. She has come out of her shell and I have moved around her position mid-season. She is now playing all the way around with defense and is working hard at it. She picks up a lot of balls that I doubt. She has exceeded my expectations in that position this season.”

The Lady Wildcats momentum was short lived. Feldhake served up the set-winning point and the North Posey girls took an early 2-0 lead. Both crowds were letting their allegiances be known.

A wind of change swept through the gym as the Lady Wildcats got a few breaks in the third set. Mount Vernon pushed ahead 20-17 and Coach Natalie Macaulay called a time out.

Abbi Voegel served for North Posey on the game point, but it was Ellen Denning who came up with the set-winning point.

She faked a set up for a spike and dinked a quick shot across the net. Before North Posey could react the ball had touched the floor and Mount Vernon came away with the

third set.

McNamara hammered a spike down in the third set, putting an exclamation point on a Wildcat run of scores. The ball went cross-court and slammed the ground just inside the line, bringing the score to 23-14.

Denning ended the set with a quick, gamewinning shot. Mount Vernon had tied up the set count, at two.

The deciding set went back and forth like a pendulum. North Posey called a time out, down 14-13. The crowd was fired up on both sides.

Nall was all over the place with two blocks and a fierce kill that brought the score to 16-15 and the crowd to their feat.

Schorr served the final point, bringing North Posey to the 18-16 win in the final set.

North Posey also won the junior varsity contest in three sets (18-25, 25-19, 15-12).

Mount Vernon jumped out ahead to a 2014 lead in the first set. The Lady Vikings called a time out to talk things over. Haley Ritzert finished off the first set with a strong kill.

North Posey came back swinging in the second set. They worked up a 6-0 lead before the Lady Wildcats were able to get on the scoreboard.

Hannah Denning served for Mount Vernon as they were down 23-19, but the Lady Vikings came away with back-to-back plays.

The final set was tight, but North Posey came away with the win.

Mount Vernon will begin sectional play on Thursday at Gibson Southern at 6 p.m.

‘Cats Whoberry, Roy move on

By Brandon Cole Payton Whoberry advances in back-toback years from Saturday’s IHSAA Regional Cross Country Meet held at Pride’s Creek to the semi-state level. Savannah Roy also advances to Semi-state, by placing as the tenth individual, in the girls division.

There are 10 teams and 20 individuals who compete in Regionals with the hope of being one of the top five teams or top 10 individuals to advance to Semi-State this week at Brown County.

“The preparation is as much mental as anything,” said Mount Vernon boys head cross country coach, Leigh Latshaw. “At this point in the season the kids are in shape and we are tapering workouts in search of quality instead of quantity. We had to make a switch from last week’s Sectional course that was flat and fast to this week’s course with its rolling hills and still fast.”

The Wildcats put some hills back into their workout this week, as they continued their pace work. “Pace work consists of studying meet times for this season as well as last, and setting a goal for your race time,” said Latshaw. “We then break this down in to pace work for shorter intervals that help the kids to settle into a race and work through the tougher parts. This also helps them to take advantage of downhills and attack uphill.” The goal

of this training style is to give the runners confidence in their ability to hit their target time, or better it and work toward advancing to the next week.

“We are very proud of all six of our runners who competed in the Regional Meet this week,” said Latshaw. On the girls’ side, Savannah Roy advances to Semi-state with a time of 21:42, by placing as the tenth individual. “Madison Seib ran the race of the season and just missed out on advancing by being the eleventh-place individual.”

On the boys’ side, Payton Whoberry advances with a time of 17:09. This was good enough for seventh place in individuals qualifying from non-advancing teams. “He goes in with eyes wide open this year as last year was an experience of a life-time to so speak,” said Latshaw. “The start was fast and furious and that led to a disappointing finish time for him, but this year he is ready. He knows the course is mostly flat and it will be incredibly fast, but he will be more equipped to run his race this year and he looks to better his time from a year ago. If he is able to do that, the results could be very, very positive.”

The top 10 individuals from non-advancing teams and the first six-qualifying teams from each semi-state, shall advance to the state finals. The race will begin on Saturday at 12:30 p.m. ET. Admission is free.

Viking football, from Page B1 give his team a 31-0 lead at the half.

The third quarter was much like the first half as the Vikings scored again on their first possession as the Chargers had no answers for Inkenbrandt. He broke loose for touchdown runs of 36 and 55 yards in the third quarter alone, the last one with 39 seconds showing on the clock.

The Viking reserves got some valuable experience but learned they will have to step up their level of play next season as they gave up two long touchdown runs in the final period.

Besides Wargel and Lindauer defensively, Nick Gries had five tackles while Cale O’Risky had four and Marshall, and Rankin had three apiece. Inkenbrandt, Isaac Mayer, Martin, Cox, and Derek Motz had two tackles apiece while Zach Adkins got one. Lindauer and Cox each were credited with a sack.

But this one is over and the Vikings have to look ahead.

Despite defeating the Rebels in the first game of the season, Rynkiewich knows this

South Spencer team is going to be ready to play because the season is on the line. Nothing comes easy.

“The first time we played, we played an outstanding all-around game and that’s what we are going to have to do again,” Rynkiewich said of the first-round sectional contest.

“That’s the way it is supposed to be. It’s the tournament now.”

“Stokes is awfully fast and Burden is always a threat,” Rynkiewich said of two Rebel players. “They are scoring a lot of points. Offensively we are going to have to be mistake-free and I think we can move the ball on them.”

The Vikings closed the regular season at 6-3 which is not a bad season and has Rynkiewich just happy that the Vikings are healthy now.

“Our health is as good as it has been since early in the season and that’s good, now that it is tournament time,” he concluded.

Gametime Friday night is 7 p.m.

Wildcat football, from Page B1 from Ahrens late in the third, to round out the scoring.

Jasper and Vincennes Lincoln ended their season atop the Big Eight Conference at 5-1 with an overall record of 8-1. Mount Vernon finished conference play with a 3-3 record just behind (6-2) Mount Carmel (5-1 conference). Rounding out the conference were (3-6) Boonville (2-4 conference), (3-6) Princeton (1-5 conference) and (0-9) Washington (0-6 conference).

Mount Vernon will travel to Princeton on Friday to open up sectional play. Kickoff is set for 7 p.m. The Wildcats topped Princeton 48-0 amidst rainy conditions on Oct. 10, but every coach knows the playoffs open up an

all-new season.

Photo by Dave Pearce “It’s real simple. Both teams remember what happened. It’s my job to make them remember, we have to treat Princeton like they are the best team we have played all year. If we don’t it could possibly bite us in the rear. “ The Wildcats will look to shake off the tough loss in Jasper and reclaim their winning ways this post season. “Knowing you can do it and having the confidence is the biggest thing in high school football,” said Maier.

If the Wildcats top Princeton, they will play the winner of (4-5) Evansville Memorial and (8-1) Gibson Southern.

WHY WH HY YOU YOU SSHOULD HOULD V VOTE OTE | IMPROVEMENTS IMPROVEMENTS

It Changes Communities

T

he presidential election isn’t the only one you should be fired up to influence at the ballot box. In fact, your local representatives, mayors and council members have more day-to-day impact on your life than the president.

Local elected officials make decisions on policies that directly affect your taxes, home value and professional life.

THE KIDS Children cannot vote, but our community’s laws and policies still impact them, especially when it comes to education. Our children are depending on us to represent their voices at the voting booth, and we must work to make sure we don’t let them down.

And speaking of children, one of the best ways to ensure a bright horizon for our democracy is instilling a voter’s mindset at an early age. Talk to your children or students about why voting is so important to America and how it can impact things that are important to them – like school, playgrounds and public parks.

THE IMPACT Your local representatives fight hard for your personal rights at the highest levels. Wages, pay equity, fairness in hiring, pension security, taxes and health insurance issues are a few of the most important aspects of your life that can be influenced by your local officials.

When you vote you are telling elected officials how you feel about these issues. Your vote can influence decisions on funding for schools or roads that you or family members may use every day.

cooler at work or in the bleachers at the high school football game, politics are likely to pop into the conversation.

When you place your vote, your voice becomes more powerful and

justified to publicly convey your feelings on specific issues. Whether you agree or disagree with a certain policy or legislative item, your thoughts will be considered more vital in the political arena if you vote.

WHY YOU SHOULD VOTE | HISTORY

People Died to Give You the Right

O

ne of the most precious aspects of voting is just how hard people before us have fought to protect it.

Think back to the early American patriots who stood up for the right to vote and literally gave their lives for that freedom.

Those times may seem like they are in the distant past, but there are still many countries in the world where voting is a point of cultural oppression.

You owe it to those who went before you to carry out your civic duty. The founding fathers believed that an informed electorate was necessary to maintain an effective society.

In the initial stages of voting, eligible voters were expected to not only research issues and candidates, but also speak on them at public meetings. Voting was a privilege that citizens took seriously, and it’s something that many members of our military have fought hard to protect.

TODAY’S VETERAN CONNECTION Many states have leveraged the exercise of voting as an opportunity to honor our veterans. North Carolina, for example, successfully launched its program in time for the 2008 general election, and successfully honored more than 2,000 veterans.

The Vote in Honor of a Veteran Program provides North Carolina citizens an opportunity to pay tribute to past, present and future members of the military.

Voters can honor a veteran on any Election Day by requesting a PIN or by sharing a story that may be posted on the North Carolina State Board of Elections website.

Other states also use a PIN-focused program that provides voters with a free personal identification number and a chance to personalize it with the name of a veteran you wish to honor. Check in with your local representatives or state office on requesting a personalized PIN. Honoring a veteran you appreciate – now that is a great reason to vote. © FOTOLIA Photo by Zach Straw

WHY YOU SHOULD VOTE • THE CANDIDATES

U. S. REPRESENTATIVE

INDIANA 8TH DISTRICT

Tom Spangler

Full name: Tom Spangler Seeking office: Indiana 8th District Congressional U.S. Representative Party: Democrat My Family: Wife Penny – married 43 years, two grown children – Amy L. Haas, Tom A. Spangler, and six grandchil-

dren Primary reason(s) seeking this office: I am seeking this office because since 2012 Congress has gotten more reckless, irresponsible and our Congressman is part of the problem. There is no longer a desire to legislate and represent ‘We the People.’

I am qualified to hold this office because: I am not a politician but rather a small businessman. As voters we have seen what Doctors, Lawyers and Bankers have done in Congress which has only resulted in a ‘do nothing Congress’ and grid-lock. I know that I can bring Hoosier common sense solutions to complex problems. I believe in ‘come let’s reason together’ to get things accomplished in our Government.

STATE SENATOR

The thing I most want the voters of Posey County to know about me is: I am a man of strong faith and convictions.

Jesus Christ is my Savior and I believe that the Holy Bible is the perfect word of God. I understand the plight of the people of the 8th district. I am a middle class small business owner and I know the struggles it takes to try and maintain a simple standard of living.

The main two or three things I see the largest issues in the near future are: Better paying jobs, Education, Government Transparency and 8th District common sense.

My solution for these issues: Instead of spending billions of dollars in war(s) (like we have done in the past 10 years and are trying to do now) lets invest this money

DISTRICT 49

Jim Tomes

My full name is: James Andrew Tomes I am seeking the office of: Indiana State Senator District 49 I am affiliated with (which) party: Republican My family consists of: My wife Margie; daughter, Cherie,

her husband Scott Graves and grandchildren, Roman, Rhanda and Roake; daughter, Lori; son, Nick, his wife Ana and grandson Billy.

The primary reason or reasons I am seeking this office: To represent, serve and assist the good people of Indiana Senate District 49.

I am qualified to hold this office because: I understand the obligations, responsibilities and duties of this office.

The thing I most want the voters of Posey County to know about me is: I want the citizens of our district to know that they can contact me at any time with their questions, concerns and comments.

The main two or three things I see the largest issues in the near future are: Continued erosion of freedom and

financial stress.

My solution for these issues is: I will be vigilant in limiting government intrusion in our personal lives, and will be steadfast in maintaining a healthy fiscal atmosphere for citizens, business and industry.

If elected, you can count on me to: continue fulfilling the obligations of this job as I have the last four years.

The one thing that sets me apart from my opponent is: N/A Other relevant facts: A veteran of Vietnam, current State Senator serving on: Criminal and Corrections Committee, Utility Committee and Agricultural & Natural Resources Committee, member of the Deptartment of Corrections Faith and Character Based Advisory Board.

PROSECUTING ATTORNEY 11TH CIRCUIT Travis Clowers

My full name is: Travis Lee Clowers I am seeking the office of: Prosecuting Attorney I am affiliated with (which) party: Republican My family consists of: My wife Jennifer Clowers. My sons Triston, Jackson, Bryce and Nash and my daughter Emma.

The primary reason or reasons I am seeking this office: To continue my service as an advocate for this great community.

I am qualified to hold this office because: My values, unique work experience, and passion to serve Posey County make me the right person for the job.

The thing that I most want the voters of Posey County

to know about me is: A prosecutor must be more than just a skilled attorney. He or she must be a leader in the community and must defend the values of the county he or she serves.

As your prosecutor, I will work tirelessly to make Posey County a safer and even better place to live and raise a family.

I truly believe that a prosecutor can have a tremendous positive influence on a community. I promise to continue aggressively prosecuting the crimes that trouble our county and I will strive to protect the values that we stand for.

The main two or three things I see as the largest issues in the near future are: My main focus as prosecutor will always be the effective prosecution of those who commit violent crimes, including those who harm children. The efforts of my office, combined with the hard work of our Sheriff and local law enforcement has led to success in the courtroom and lengthy prison sentences for violent offenders.

In addition, it is important to continue to take a stand against those who sell or manufacture drugs in Posey County. In 2010 there were nearly 90 meth labs in Posey County. Through proactive investigations and aggressive prosecution that num-

ELECT

ber has dramatically decreased to 17 as of 2013.

My solution for these issues is: To continue a close working relationship with our county Sheriff and all local law enforcement. It is the collective or team effort that truly makes a difference in deterring criminal activity in Posey County. Thorough investigations combined with proficiency in the courtroom lead to convictions and justice for victims of crime.

If elected, you can count on me to: put politics aside and serve each and every member of this community to the best of my ability, and with all of the energy that I possess.

The one thing that sets me apart from my opponent is: I am running unopposed.

Other relevant facts about me: Before being elected Posey County Prosecutor in 2010, I served as a deputy prosecutor in Vanderburgh County, Indiana with my focus primarily on the prosecution of felony drug crimes. I worked closely with detectives analyzing and preparing cases for trial. Beforehand, I worked as a deputy prosecutor in Brown County, Indiana where I managed the child support division, as well as handled various misdemeanor crimes.

(Billions)towards improving America’s aging infrastructure – roads and bridges along with internet access to all rural areas. This would bring about better and higher paying jobs for the middle class who will in turn spend and improve our overall economy.

The federal Government has done harm to our education system over the past 10 years. All that our teachers are able to do today is ‘teach to test’ instead of helping our young people to learn and be exposed to all the subjects of education that will prove useful in their working life. New education ideas must come from educators not from Doctors, Lawyers and Banker politicians.

The Bible verse ‘the truth will set you free’ will help to

improve all areas of our failing Government. Upon becoming elected to Congress the people of the 8th District will know daily via Web-site and newspaper media what Lobbyist came into my office, what they wanted and all bills and deals being submitted to me.

This information will be communicated and written not in a Governmental language but in a way that it will be easily understood. Additionally, my staff will be diverse (Educator, Conservative, Union, Retiree, Healthcare, Business and etc.), and comprised from people of the 8th District, not Washington Insiders. This way coming from the 8th District we will continue to understand and respond to the needs of the people of the 8th District.

If elected, you can count

on me to: I will always seek God’s direction and the will of the people of the 8th District before I suggest bills / laws. I will be visible and come back to the district often to meet and hear from you on a face to face base. I will not let party politics’ define and or control me in what I do as your Congressman.

The one thing that sets me apart from my opponent is: I believe that my faith in God and prayer will allow me to be a citizen servant instead of a career politician. I believe in term limits – two / two years = a total of four years for Congress. I would try and eliminate pensions for Congress.

Other relevant facts: I am a member of Fellowship Baptist Church, Jasper, Indiana and a deacon for over 25 years.

WHY YOU SHOULD VOTE • THE CANDIDATES

STATE REPRESENTATIVE Tony Goben

My full name is: Tony Goben I am seeking the office of: Indiana House of Representatives – District 76 I am affiliated with the: Democratic Party The primary reason or reasons I am seeking this office: I have decided to run for the Indiana House of Representatives District 76 to give a voice to those who are no longer represented. Many hard working people of our community have been forgotten about by our current legislators and forgotten about by our representative, Wendy McNamara. For me, running for office is a continuance of my current career of public service. Should I win the District 76 seat I will stay determined to help the struggling families and the community. I will work endlessly to attract new better paying jobs, fix the closed bridges, and fight the growing crime and drug issues by sensibly using our resources.

I am qualified to hold this office because: I’m a Southwestern Indiana native who truly cares about the community. I’ve dedicated my adult life to helping those in the community who are down on their luck, between a rock and hard place, and need a hand to pull themselves up. Currently I work in the Knight Township Trustee’s Office as Senior Case Manager. In this position I review individual cases of struggling men, women and families. From there, the trustee’s office offers a number services, whether it be financial, material, temporary housing, or clothing.

Prior to working for the Knight Township Trustee, I worked in the Vanderburgh County Drug Court as an Employment Specialist. In this position I worked daily to help better those who had made the wrong decisions and help make them contributing members of society.

The thing I most want voters of Posey County to know about me is: Unlike my opponent, I will not turn my back on those who will have elected me.

I will not be swayed by party politics, or bent by big business and special interest. Addressing the most important issues of the taxpayers of Posey County will be my top priority. I am not a politician but a public servant looking out for the community and its overall wellbeing.

The main issues I see in the near future are: Our state legislature has spent too much time focusing on social issues that are better off decided by the court system. The four most important issues our legislature should be focusing on in the upcoming session is fixing our broken public education system, better paying jobs for Southern Indiana, restoring the crumbling infrastructure, and fighting the climbing drug and crime rate.

My solutions for these issues are: Over the past several years my opponent and the Republican super-majority has slashed millions upon millions

DISTRICT 76 Wendy McNamara

of dollars from our state’s public education system. Instead they have invested your tax dollars in charter schools that have not only failed but in many instances closed due to fraud and misuse of public funding. Education is our state’s silver bullet.

With education we can defeat drug use, crime, and poverty.

We can train a 21st Century workforce to be competitive in a regional and global market, and pay the working men and women of our state wages that they can thrive and prosper on.

With education, we will eliminate the ‘brain drain’ that has devastated our area and turn our district into a more attractive community to live and work.

By fixing our outdated, overused, and in some cases clearly dangerous roads and bridges, our area will benefit.

Restoring our infrastructure will provide great paying jobs to our district’s skilled labor force as well as attract new industry to a district that is easily and safely accessible. Bringing new business and new building projects to Posey County and increasing the number of working Hoosiers in District 76 will strengthen the overall economy.

With more people working, disposable incomes become available for spending in our district.

I will be your voice in the Statehouse, working to bring state funding, new business, and infrastructure projects to Southwestern Indiana.

Through education, workforce development, infrastructure improvements, and attracting new business, we will be poised to be the best educated, highest paid, and busiest in the state.

Crime and drug use have a stranglehold on many in our district and our current representative is failing to realistically fight the root causes of these issues. Instead our representative authored legislation that only addresses the after effects of drug use and overstretches the already limited resources of our State Police Department.

Now is the time that we finally listen to the experts by placing pseudo-ephedrine and ephedrine on the scheduled drug list.

By placing these drugs on the scheduled list, they will only be accessed by prescription. This greatly decreases the availability of the main components of methamphetamine. Our state must no longer be known as the meth capitol of the nation.

Untold numbers of friends and families have been ripped apart by this scourge. Also, it costs the State and specifically you, the taxpayers, millions of dollars to clean up clandestine laboratories. As your representative I will work with local law enforcement to help combat illicit drug use that is devastating our communities. I will always work to protect every resident of Posey County and to make sure that our friends in law enforcement always have the resources and support that they need.

Though our Governor and my opponent, will tout the state’s $2 billion surplus as an economic achievement. The burden of this surplus has fallen squarely on the shoulders of the working men and women of Indiana as Hoosier household income has dropped by $6,600 in twelve years while our tax burden has increased substantially.

If elected you can count on me to: put the people of Posey County first. The people of Posey County deserve a Representative who will keep his word and put the citizens in the

forefront, not be bought out by big business, party politics, and special interest groups as Wendy McNamara has. My opponent has raised nearly $500,000 in her campaigns from her Party, Special Interest and big business and in the statehouse those are who she represents. As I said before, I will be the voice in Indianapolis for Posey County, I will put the people first, not the Party and not special interest. I will work endlessly to return funding to public schools, bring jobs to Posey County, and work to better the quality of life in our area.

The one thing that sets me apart from my opponent is: I have not forgotten where I come from. I am a native of District 76, and this is where I learned that hard work, discipline, honesty, and loyalty lead to great accomplishments in life. These are the characteristics that led me to be a public servant and dedicate my life to helping others to thrive. These are characteristics that make seeking the District 76 seat of the Indiana House of Representatives my most natural next step. Unlike my opponent, I will work tirelessly to better my district. Discipline and honesty will keep my true to my constituents. And loyalty to my community will be my constant reminder of I am running for office and why I want to Represent District 76.

I will not forget the community I come from.

My opponent has forgotten where she has come from and who she represents. Born and raised in Northern Indiana, she moved down here to be an educator. Unfortunately, her role as an educator in the EVSC is over shadowed by party politics. She has chosen charter schools and voucher programs over funding to the very public school corporation that pays her yearly salary. Her duty in the EVSC is to prepare students for college, yet she has not spoken out against Governor Pence’s budget cuts to Higher Education. In her first campaign for this office, she promised working men and women livable wages and more jobs, three months later she voted in favor of Right-to Work. Posey County is still lagging behind the rest of the state in job creations and falling behind in household income. My opponent has forgotten where she comes from and forgotten those who elected her. It is time to put a person in office who will represent the people and do what is best for the community, not self interest. For a dedicated and true voice in Indy, I am the best candidate for Posey County and I appreciate your vote on November 4.

Other Relevant facts about me (Experience, education, other service or position held, etc.): I am happy to have been endorsed by many different Labor Organizations including the Indiana State AFL-CIO and the United Auto Workers, and AFSCME, the Indiana State Fraternal Order of Police, the Indiana State Teachers Association, and the American Federation of Teachers.

I have served on many local boards and volunteered countless hours of time to various charities and civic organizations. I come from a background of Social Services and was educated in that and the Human Services field. It is those classrooms and in real life, I learned that there is a way for everyone to help make the community a better place, and I continue to strive for that every single day.

My full name is: Wendy McNamara I am seeking the office of: State Representative House District 76 I am affiliated with (which) party: Republican My family consists of: Marc (spouse); Mercury (dog); The primary reason or reasons I am seeking this office: When I decided to run for office, I came offering servant leadership based on new leadership leading to a new tomorrow. As I look back at the past four years, I have been able to accomplish a lot of what I set out to do. I have provided our community with someone who listens, someone who cares, and someone who genuinely puts people above politics and party.

I want to continue to bring true and substantive change for this community.

I am qualified to hold this office because: I have 20 years of experience in education and am currently your HD 76 State Legislator. I know what it takes to listen to the community and lead.

The thing that I most want the voters of Posey County to know about me is: I have provided real solutions to problems/issues facing our community instead of lip service. I set out to make a difference in our community and take my servant leadership from the classroom to the Statehouse. Over the past four years I have been able to build relationships that would benefit us in Southern Indiana.

I am proud to have 100 percent voting record and 100 percent attendance. I have been there

every day to be a voice for you.

I have worked hard to promote and be vigilant on behalf of the farmers in our community. I coauthored legislation to reduce the corporate tax rate to encourage corporations to set up business here. I supported legislation that phases out the Inheritance Tax, enhances the Dinosaur Building Tax Credit, increased opportunities for access to start-up capital, focused on entrepreneurship and small business. I authored legislation to provide consumers peace of mind when purchasing a home through the creation of a Meth Database Registry and Realtors Disclosure Statements. And most importantly, I provide a constant and rich career and life experience to guide discussion on education legislation.

Each weekday, I get up and serve my students and faculty.

That is my career. As the State Representative for District 76, I serve the people of Southwest Indiana. I am not in this for power or for prestige. I am in it for you and it is my honor and privilege to serve you each and every day to bring a new and better tomorrow to our community.

The main two or three things I see as the largest issues in the near future are: Jobs, jobs, and jobs; Education; Expanding Economic Development.

My solution for these issues is: Jobs: The conditions have been set to allow jobs to develop here and in the past year we have seen several companies take advantage of the good things Posey County has to offer. There is still much work to be done.

Education: As an educator, I will continue the same advancement of education that is happening here in Southwest Indiana. I am uniquely qualified to work with teachers and parents to put students first. It is important to advocate for expansion of early childhood education, expand the opportunities for students to earn dual credits, and enhance the workforce with students prepared to enter into the 21st century with

POSEY COUNTY

skills required to be globally competitive.

Expanding Economic Development: We are open for business. I will continue to support and promote policies that expand economic development opportunities here in Posey County.

If elected, you can count on me to: You can count on me to continue to work hard to get results for our community, listen, and be there as a voice for us. I have placed us on the map and continue to bring attention to and solutions to problems left unresolved in this community for years.

The one thing that sets me apart from my opponent is: I am a person who has provided our community with someone who listens, someone who cares, and someone who genuinely puts people above politics and party. In my years of office, I have worked hard to build relationships with decision makers resulting in true benefits to our community in meaningful and substantive ways.

WHY YOU SHOULD VOTE • THE CANDIDATES

POSEY COUNTY

AUDITOR

Kyle Haney

My full name is: Kyle J. Haney I am seeking the office of: Posey County Auditor I am affiliated with (which) party: Republican My family consists of: I am the son of Suzan Keitel-Haney and the late Darrel Wayne Haney. I’m also the youngest of five children with my siblings being Robert (Scott) Haney, Mike Haney, Susie Haney-Pate, and Drew Haney.

The primary reason or reasons I am seeking this office: The primary reason I am seeking this office is that I believe in this community and want use my education and the skills I’ve developed to serve the community that I grew up in and its taxpayers.

I am qualified to hold this office because: One reason that I am qualified to hold this office is because I already have experience in the position. In January of 2014 I was caucused into office to finish out the current term as County Auditor.

The second reason I am qualified for this office is because of my education. This December I will finish my Bachelors of Science Degree in Business Administration at the University of Southern Indiana. Earning this degree has given me knowledge in management, Human Resources, and Accounting. Along with obtaining this knowledge I have also been required to think critically to come up with solutions to scenarios that do not have

Liz Miller the simplest answers. Having knowledge in these fields and possessing critical thinking skills are vital to successfully carrying out the duties of the County Auditor.

The thing that I most want the voters of Posey County to know about me is: The thing that I want voters of Posey County to know about me is that if I am elected to serve another term as Auditor I will work daily to serve each and every taxpayer the best I possibly can. Serving people is what I love to do and as your Auditor I am committed to doing this on a daily basis.

The main two or three things I see as the largest issues in the near future are: One of the main challenges I see in the near future is pertaining to the county budgets. With the current tax caps and possible changes to personal property tax revenues, county entities will be forced to operate with a considerably lower revenue stream. The second challenge I see in the near future is the growing number of Tax Increment Financing districts within the county. These districts are used as tax incentives from the county to businesses that give them the incentive to expand and create or retain county jobs.

Tax Increment Financing can be a very complicated concept and the Auditors office is in charge of monitoring these districts and ensures that the tax monies are disbursed appropriately.

My solution for these issues is: My main solution to both of these challenges is to make sure that the Auditor’s office, along with the county, is operating as efficiently and effectively as possible. I believe that process improvement is a never-ending process and that we should always be looking for innovative ways to save money within the county. It is also very important that we are as knowledgeable as possible within the Auditor’s office. As I stated above, Tax Increment Financing can become a very complicated concept,

therefore it is vital that we are always looking for opportunities to understand TIF better so that we can make sure we are always handling Tax Increment Financing districts the best we can.

If elected, you can count on me to: If I’m elected to another term as County Auditor you can count on me to come to work for you on a daily basis. As Auditor I am committed to bring new and fresh ideas to the table in order to help find more efficient and effective ways to accomplish things, not only in the Auditor’s office but throughout the entire county as well. Along with this I am committed to offering the best possible service to each and every taxpayer that we come into contact with.

The one thing that sets me apart from my opponent is: The one thing that sets me apart from my opponent is that I have a sound understanding of technology and how to utilize it in the workplace. If we want to find ways to save money and operate more efficiently, then it is very important that we are able to understand what technology has to offer us and to find ways to utilize it. Also, as I stated in a previous question, I have been serving as the County Auditor since January. This means that I have experienced a lot of the things that the Auditor is responsible for and therefore I know what to expect, how to accomplish the various duties of the Auditor, and what processes we need to work on improving in order to save county tax dollars.

Other relevant facts about me: Bachelors Degree in Business Administration from the University of Southern Indiana (graduating December 2014); Experience in both banking and retail management; Level I and Level II Assessor/Appraiser Certified; Active member of Agape Family Ministries; Member of the Board of Directors for the Posey County United Way; Instructor for the Mount Vernon Marching Band.

My solution for these issues is: For all of us within the county to work together as a team, which starts with our elected officials, community and business leaders and includes all citizens within Posey County to find ways to attract new businesses and retain the current businesses.

Brittaney Johnson, (husband) Matt, (granddaughter) Amelia, (and one on the way); Courtney Price, (husband) Jay; Destiney Oeth.

The primary reason or reasons I am seeking this office: It has been a privilege to serve in the office of sheriff for the past four years. The safety and security of our county remains my priority, it is for this reason I am seeking re-election to the office of Posey County Sheriff.

I am qualified to hold this office because: I am now completing my first term as sheriff, experienced in jail management and law enforcement issues throughout Posey County. In the way of education; I hold an associate degree from Vincennes University and an undergraduate degree from the University

of Southern Indiana. My law enforcement background includes police administration, public relations, criminal investigation, forensic investigation, training instructor, youth services director, hazardous devices technician, and general police duties. Having worked in the criminal justice field my entire adult life has given me the opportunity and ability to network with all levels of law enforcement and agencies involved with public safety and security. This broad based service network allows me a capability of bringing those contacts and resources (when needed) to assist our citizens here in Posey County.

The thing that I most want the voters of Posey County to know about me is: I genuinely

care about their issues and I will continue to work with them to resolve those issues.

The main two or three things I see as the largest issues in the near future are: It seems that almost daily there are new demands placed on public safety agencies. From security alerts, changing methods in the distribution and manufacture of illegal drugs, increased traffic volume on our area roadways, new changes made to our criminal code, domestic violence, and just everyday police duties in general. Very simply put, the Posey County Sheriff’s Department is a small agency with huge responsibilities.

Present staffing allows for two deputies per shift, patrolling a county that is 420 square miles in size, that itself is a challenge.

My full name is: Crystal (Yancy) Collins I am seeking the office of: Posey County Clerk I am affiliated with (which) party: The Posey County Democrat Party My family consists of: I was born in New Harmony to Ed and Jeanie Yancy and I have one brother, Michael.

Other relevant facts about me: (experience, education, other service or positions held, etc.) Many improvements and advancements in the Sheriff’s Department and jail have occurred during the past four years. I was very proud to receive an announcement made by the Indiana Criminal Justice Institute in November of 2012 that the Posey County Sheriff’s Department had been selected to receive the ‘Best in State’ award in the sheriff department category, for roadway and community safety. This award gave credit to the goals, hard work, and dedicated efforts of our staff members and deputies.

Success has come from community support, and that also is much appreciated. It is truly an honor to serve as your Sheriff.

CLERK Betty Postletheweight

Clerk’s office offers many services (passport applications, Genealogy research, marriage applications, etc.), and is also considered the ‘middle man’ for court issues. I love being part of a team who can serve the public so well.

I am qualified to hold this office because: I was hired to work in the Election office in August of 2007. In January of 2008 I took a position in the Clerk’s office and was eventually appointed to be the First Deputy under the Clerk. My daily duties included balancing the finances, filing court cases, being a back up to the election office, and general customer service duties such as waiting on customers and answering telephone calls. I attended several training sessions a year including the annual Clerk and Election conferences.

other problems. It affects our schools, businesses, families, but most importantly the children of our communities.

If elected, you can count on me to: My main goal is to be active in all areas of the Clerk’s/Election office. I feel that it is important to know all aspects of the job. The current staff is a valuable asset to the elected clerk. I feel that with my previous experience and the staff that is currently there, the public will receive excellent service.

The one thing that sets me apart from my opponent is: While working in the Clerk’s office as First Deputy, I learned many aspects of the Clerk’s and Election offices.

If elected, I will make it my priority to know and understand all functions of the office.

Other relevant facts about me: Over the years I have owned my own photography and daycare business, worked in banking and worked for the IT department of MSD of MV as a computer lab assistant. I feel confident that all of my work experience and knowledge gained from each position will be beneficial if elected this fall.

These past three-plus years have been full of changes; 34 precincts were combined into 23 polls, saving $26,000 per election year. Received $5,500 grant money, and HAVA grant to improve poll location. Negotiation of election contract awarded no increases for next three years.

ASSESSOR Sherri Lueder

working on taking the office paperless. This will save the taxpayers money by reducing the cost of paper, ink and storage for documents. These upgrades will also allow for quick and easy access to prior year’s information.

In the past, the County was paying thousands of dollars to an outside vendor to update the parcel information in our GIS (Geographical Information System). Even with their help we were one and one-half years behind. We are now upto-date with that segment and are moving forward with the next step by working daily at matching the GIS, the Assessment database and the Plat book. Your Assessor’s office now has many services, valuations and maps that are available for anyone to access online making this office more user friendly.

Do you remember when the 2008 tax bills did not go out and all the commotion that caused? When tax bills do not go out, money flow stops and schools and county government do not have funds to operate. Millions of dollars then had to be needlessly borrowed to fund this shortfall. This borrowing caused millions of dollars of interest to be forced on cities, towns and our school districts. If the problems of 2008 were not enough, in 2009 those same bills were sent out so late we had less than 30 days to double pay the two years of taxes. This was all because filing dates were missed or delayed. While all of those obvious problems were going on, hidden problems were taking a toll too.

A large corporation had been grossly over assessed resulting in overpaying of property

taxes that forced the county to repay 1.6 million dollars due to the mistake. The old county assessor’s office was not changing with the times. They were not meeting certification deadlines and had little interest in managing the details.

If we are going to encourage Economic Development in Posey County, we cannot afford go back to the errors of the past.

Since taking office, I have driven positive change by certifying documents on time allowing for on time billings and thereby eliminating borrowing money and paying unnecessary interest. Applying my Level 3 skills, I set up a Posey County land value model that allows for lower land assessments based on the varying quality of the land.

Because this model reflects a more fair value on land, many other Indiana county assessors are now copying this model. I have reduced spending in the Assessor’s Office by $80,000 per year. I am now implementing my five-year plan to drive customer service, continue reducing costs and increasing efficiencies in the Assessor’s Office. My experience is proven by achievement and accomplishment.

My full name is: Sherri (Kincheloe) Lueder I am seeking the office of: Posey County Assessor I am affiliated with (which) party: The Posey County Democrat Party My family consists of: I have been married to my husband Gary for 39 years.

We have three children, Jamie, Mark & Andy. We also have six beautiful grandchildren. My parents are the late Robert Kincheloe and Shirley Kincheloe. My husband and son farm 1,000 acres in Posey County.

The primary reason or reasons I am seeking this office: I believe that the citizens of Posey County deserve a full time Assessor that will be fair

VOTE RICK

and equitable to all taxpayers.

I am qualified to hold this office because: I have 19 years of experience working in the Assessor’s Office and am a Level III Certified Indiana Assessor/Appraiser.

The thing that I most want the voters of Posey County to know about me is: I will be available to the taxpayers of Posey County to come into the office with any questions about their assessments at any time. I will have an office staff that will be courteous and helpful. I have worked with a lot of taxpayers in the last 19 years to ensure that their assessments were done correctly and I feel that my experience and qualifications would make me the best candidate for the position of Assessor.

The main two or three things I see as the largest issues in the near future are: There have been some questions about some taxpayers having their assessments lowered below market value and without filing an appeal. This is not right and I will work hard to make sure that this

does not happen again. All assessments should be fair and equitable and at market value.

My opponent claims that when she took office, she got us back on time with taxes and started a web site for taxpayers to use. This is not correct. The state had ordered a reassessment on commercial/ industrial properties which is why taxes were delayed. We had just finished this and were already back on time when she took office. Also, a web site had already been developed for the Assessor’s Office with the former Assessor.

If elected, you can count on me to: I don’t believe in lying to the taxpayers of Posey County and this is something I will never do. You can count on me to be completely honest and treat you with the most utmost respect.

Other relevant facts about me: I am a member of Welborn United Methodist Church, Business Professional Women’s Club, the Democrat Phoenix Club, and Democrat Women’s Club where I currently hold the office of Secretary.

WHY YOU SHOULD VOTE • THE CANDIDATES

POSEY COUNTY COMMISSIONER Jim Alsop

Bill Gillenwater

My full name is: James L. Alsop, but prefer Jim. I am seeking the office of: Posey County Commissioner, District 2 I am affiliated with (which) party: I am affiliated with the Posey County Democrat party My family consists of: Spouse is Judy, children are Lesa (Casey)Trela, Mary (Jonathan) Schmitt, Erica (Wes) Kissinger, Amy (Ryan) Spilman, Cortland (Katie) Alsop and Lori Stallings, grandchildren are Fiona Kissinger, Bryson and Jace Trela, Dawson Spilman and the Schmitt twins due in November.

The primary reason or reasons I am seeking this office: I believe I have an obligation to give back to the community where I have lived and worked my entire life. I want Posey County and its residents to grow and prosper. In the eight years I’ve been your Commissioner we have seen jobs and our tax base grow. I’ve been able to be a part of this growth and I have the ability and experience to continue this in the future.

I am qualified to hold this office because: I have the governmental experience of the past eight years and we’ve seen Posey County move forward with investments from companies moving into our community, such as Abengoa, Aventine, which is now Valero, Quality Magnetite and hopefully Midwest Fertilizer very soon. We’ve also had major investments by existing companies in their facilities, such as Sabic Innovative Plastics, Bristol Myers, CountryMark, Cargill, Consolidated Grain and Barge, and Warehouse Services, just to name a few.

I’ve been in the banking business in Posey County for over 37 years. I understand finances and work to get the most for our dollar. I’ve been able to bring a business perspective to County government that has allowed us to consolidate services and eliminate unnecessary services and costs. We’ve also been able to upgrade services and change vendors that provided cost savings going forward.

The thing that I most want the voters of Posey County to know about me is: I am fair

and impartial when serving as your Commissioner. I try to look at all sides of an issue before making a decision. I don’t have a personal agenda and I don’t have a political agenda because those only benefit a select few. I have a Posey County agenda. I work hard for the people of Posey County to do the right thing the right way.

The main two or three things I see as the largest issues in the near future are: In my opinion, the top priority at this time would be the construction of the western bypass around Mount Vernon. With the proposed construction projects coming to the Mount Vernon area I believe it is very important to significantly reduce the large truck traffic through the city. It will also help existing businesses by making it more efficient to move their truck fleet. It is a project that has been needed for many years; however, there hasn’t been sufficient funding available to initiate it.

Having the bypass will also encourage additional development along the full corridor, both east and west sides. Another issue that is needed is affordable sewage and wastewater treatment in the unincorporated rural areas of our county. Also, as part of our economic development we need to continue to improve our county road system for potential companies. The past few winters our roads have taken a beating from the weather. We’re working to maintain and improve those roads through EDIT and the distressed road fund from the State. Additionally, I believe improving our technology throughout the county offices will allow us to be more effective and efficient in serving the people of the county.

Finally, I believe the development of industrial parks in the northern and southern portions of the County will be beneficial by having designated areas for industrial growth.

My solution for these issues is: Funding for the bypass may come through capturing tax dollars from the Midwest Fertilizer project and/or from Sabic, if eligible, by leveraging those dollars through TIF bond financing, provided the taxpayers of Posey County are protected.

We should also look for federal and state highway fund and/or private investment for the project to reduce the cost to Posey County. Quite honestly, the potential funding sources are everchanging until we are able to receive a more definitive cost of construction by Midwest Fertilizer. Once that’s received we will have a better idea of what a funding program could be.

The initial funding for a sewage and wastewater treatment facil-

COUNTY COUNCIL

ity would fall along the same line as the bypass, provided the facility would benefit the economic development area.

Again, we could also look for state and federal funding sources along with private investment for this project. Funding for the highway improvements and industrial parks could be derived from EDIT funds, as well as possible funding from TIF bonds.

If elected, you can count on me to: To be fair and impartial when making decisions, always put Posey County first and foremost with each decision and I will definitely serve the full four years of my term because that is what the voters elected me to do.

The one thing that sets me apart from my opponent is: I have less hair. Honestly, I believe my opponent and I have the same goal, which is to see Posey County grow and prosper. Our differences are in how we can accomplish that goal.

He believes government needs to be run like a business, but you have to work within the Indiana Code that limits that ability. Business principles can be applied to some areas, which have been done in my eight years by consolidating services, eliminating unnecessary services and expenses, adjusting the health insurance and many other changes; however, I also understand that the Commissioners do not have control over the operation of other offices. The Auditor, Assessor, Treasurer, Clerk, Coroner, Recorder, Sheriff, Prosecuting Attorney are elected officials and have the responsibility to operate their offices according to state statutes.

We do not or cannot control how they operate their offices.

We can do better, but it’s a process that takes time. I don’t play the political game because I don’t believe that one party has all of the answers. I believe we need to work together to solve problems and not be influenced by political or personal agendas and beliefs. That’s not working out very well in Washington or Indianapolis and I don’t believe it needs to filter down to Posey County because when it does the only people that suffer are the people we are elected to serve.

Other relevant facts about me: Graduate of New Harmony High School and USI with a degree in Business Administration. I’ve worked in Posey County with financial institutions for over 37 years serving the people of Posey County. To me, my role as your Commissioner is just an extension of what I’ve done my entire working career, which is serving the people of Posey County.

The primary reasons I am seeking this office: is because I want to make a difference. I believe strongly in community and it’s necessary, especially in our current economy, to make wise decisions with our tax dollars.

I am qualified to hold this office because: Qualifications and the thing I want voters of

Posey County to know about me is: I attended USI and have experience in finance and office management. I am currently a church librarian and run a children’s reading program affiliated with that. I’m managing two junior high soccer teams, and have been a MSDMV volunteer since 1997, serving three years on the PTO board at Marrs Elementary, and I am a current member of the Parent Advisory Council (PAC) at MVJHS. I am involved in two different programs at the Evansville State Hospital, spending time with patients, and attending classes with others. Together, my husband and I own and operate our family farm in Marrs Township.

The main two or three main things I see as the largest issues in the future are: To keep Posey County moving forward, it’s necessary to continue growing. Drawing new businesses to the area will add more jobs. It would also mean more families working and living here, and more children in our great schools. Also working with current businesses, and at times, offering incentives, so they can continue to grow as well. With the coming of the new fertilizer plant, com-

My Full Name: William ‘Bill’ E. Gillenwater I am seeking the office of: Posey County Commissioner I am affiliated with the: Republican Party My Family consists of: Wife Muriel, Son William R. ‘Billy,’ daughter-in-law Melissa, grandsons William Grant and Hunter Michael.

The primary reasons I am seeking this office: To share my experience in business with this elected county position. I believe donating my experience time and efforts will make Posey County a better place to live. I have volunteered my time through many organizations in Posey County and never asked for anything in return.

I am qualified to hold this office because: I have experience in running and developing businesses. I know how to balance a budget and bring jobs with the right environment for growth. I also serve on two Economic Development boards as well as the Chamber of Commerce. I am also appointed to the Redevelopment Committee for Posey County. There has not been a project that has looked at Posey County or has developed in Posey County in the last 30 years that I, at least in some way, have not been involved with.

The thing that I want the voters to of Posey County to know about me is: I am not looking for anything in return for my service to the county.

I want to assist Posey County in moving forward by providing quality leadership. I have demonstrated that in every office, board or committee I have

pleting the western bypass is also imperative. This will create more jobs, not only in the plant itself, but with the construction of the facility and the roadways.

Maintaining our existing roads is also very important. I will work to make sure these things continue, and that wise decisions are made with our tax dollars.

If elected you can count on me to: If elected, I will carefully consider each item put before me. I will take my position seriously to represent my district.

I will also work together with council members and other branches of local government to stay on task. This would require attending other meetings in addition to council meetings, to stay informed and up to date on everything that’s going on in our community.

The one thing that separates me from my opponent is: I would bring to the council a fresh, new perspective.

Serving and representing my county is a civic responsibility to be taken seriously. Politics aside, we must work together to make our community the best it can possibly be. We are a great county and I am very proud to call Posey County my home.

served on. In 1970 after returning from the United States Air Force, I built successful businesses without financial assistance from anyone. I have truly been blessed with the American dream and I love and thank, God, America and Posey County for what I have accomplished.

The main two or three main things I see as the largest issues in the future are: Transportation in and around Posey County, including Trucks, Cars and rail cars in this county.

Make sewer accessible to more of the county especially North and East. This will allow for home development areas and greater economic growth.

Devise a long range plan for a widening and straightening a North/South route midway between Mount Vernon and the Vanderburgh county line. Then set the procedures in place to see it can be developed.

My Solution for these is: Complete the Western bypass around Mount Vernon. Find the solution to what will happen to the New Harmony Bridge, exhausting every possibility to get it open to cars and light duty trucks.

Develop a new sewer district East to North East of Mount Vernon.

Widen and straighten an existing North/South corridor.

If elected you can count on me to: Listen to those that give me the opportunity to serve this county. I will see that anyone that needs to make comments, private or public, has my phone numbers, email address and any other means of communication available. I promise to promote the best for the entire county, North, South, East, West and Center.

The one thing that separates me from my opponent is: My extensive involvement in Government, Economic Development, building and balancing business budgets, being able to work across County lines and political party lines.

DISTRICT 2

My full name is: E. Alan Blackburn I am seeking the office of: Posey County Council District II I am affiliated with (which) party: Posey County Democratic Party My family consists of: my wife, Teresa, three sons, John, Mark and Shane, seven grandchildren, and three great-grandchildren.

The primary reason or reasons I am seeking this office: I am seeking this office because I care about Posey County. The future of our County is very important to each and every one of us. The Posey County Council needs a person who is dedicated to the County, such as myself, and can continue to work with ongoing projects from beginning to end. I want to see the taxpayers’ tax dollars spent wisely and not wasted. I want to see the office holders and department heads work within their budgets to avoid overspending.

I am qualified to hold this office because: I have eight years of experience on the Posey County Council and have been Vice-President of the Council for seven years. I know how to work and put the budgets together. I know what the budgets consist of for each department. This is something you cannot learn overnight. It takes a lot of time and a person with experience to do the job.

The thing that I most want the voters of Posey County to

know about me is: I made a promise to Posey County voters the first time that I ran for this office that I would be dedicated to the job and that I would attend all Council meetings, all informational meetings, and all joint and executive session meetings with the County Commissioners which, for the most part, I have done. I missed only one Council meeting during my term, and that was due to a serious traffic accident for which I was hospitalized. I think this shows the residents of Posey County that I am dedicated to the job and very qualified.

The main two or three things I see as the largest issues in the near future are: One of the largest issues facing Posey County in the near future is transportation within Posey County. Due to the Midwest Fertilizer plant being built on the west side of Mount Vernon, there is a need for a western bypass around Mount Vernon to get truck traffic out of Mount Vernon.

Another large issue is the overcrowding at the Posey County Jail. The population at the Jail is border line of running at the max. The Indiana Department of Corrections has taken its prisoners out of the Jail due to the overcrowding. This is a loss of revenue to Posey County, which was partially used to keep the Jail updated and in a condition to pass State inspection.

Another important issue coming towards us is the Wadesville/Blairsville Sewer District.

My solution for these issues is: As to the western bypass around Mount Vernon, we are currently looking at ways to fund the project. This is a project that won’t happen overnight and will take time, but I do believe there is a solution.

The problem with the overcrowding at the Posey County Jail can be solved easily. We do not need to build a new Jail. The overcrowding of the Jail can be solved by having work release

prisoners housed in a facility other than the Jail. It does not have to be a secured facility.

Other counties have done this, and it has relieved the overcrowding in the jails. The facility to house work release prisoners would also bring funds into Posey County because these work release prisoners have to pay a daily fee to be housed there. They check out and go to work each day and check in when they return. This would relieve the overcrowding in the Jail and give us the opportunity to bring back the Department of Correc tions’ prisoners and receive the funds it pays for Posey County to house its prisoners.

I have made a suggestion to some board members of the Wadesville/Blairsville Sewer District that they look into the use of sewer pods to be used in and around the West Terrace School District area. This is not a permanent fix, but it would work for a long time until a possible sewer plant could be built in Posey County.

If elected, you can count on me to: I always have and will continue to work hard for you, the taxpayers of Posey County, with no regard to politics. You can count on me to be honest and trustworthy and to have a common sense approach The one thing that sets me apart from my opponent is: Experience And Proven Dedication To Posey County.

Other relevant facts about me: (experience, education, other service or positions held, etc.) I am a lifetime resident of Posey County and graduated from Mount Vernon High School. I own a small farm east of Mount Vernon. I retired from CountryMark Refinery, after almost 39 years of employment.

I was the first member to serve on the Black Township/Mount Vernon Parks Board when it was created. I am a member of Indiana Farm Bureau, Posey County Farm Bureau, Sons of the American Legion, Post 5, the Indiana Association of Counties, and the Indiana Sheriffs Association.

POSEY COUNTY COMMISSIONER Bob Deig

DISTRICT 2 Don Mattingly

My Full Name: Bob Deig I am seeking the office of: Posey County Council, District 3 I am affiliated with which party: Democratic My Family consists of: Bambi, wife of 34 years; Son, Brandon; Daughters, Brittney and Becky; three grandchildren.

All of my family live and work in Posey County.

The primary reasons I am seeking this office: I was born and raised in Posey County.

I deeply care for our community and would like to use my knowledge and experience to help maintain and improve our job opportunities. I not only want to make Posey County a great place to work, but also live and raise a family.

I am qualified to hold this office because: First of all, I am a life-long resident of Posey County. I was the former District 49 Indiana State Senator, a former member of the Posey County Council, and a former member of the Posey County Board of Commissioners. I am currently on the Posey County Sheriff’s Merit Board and a member of the Posey County Council on Aging. As your State Senator, I was on the State Agriculture, Appropriations, Public Policy, Local Government and Utilities &

Technology Committees. I also served on the National Labor & Economic Development Committee. I have the knowledge and experience, along with relationships with local, state and federal officials/agencies to help move our county forward.

The thing that I most want the voters of Posey County to know about me is: I have, and always will be accessible to visit, listen and talk about our community. I work across party lines and will always cast my vote in favor of the majority of my constituents. I have fully funded my own campaign and have not taken money from any individual, company or political action group. I believe that we need to limit the amount of campaign money used on local, state and national elections. Large corporations and political action groups have taken elections out of local resident’s hands.

The main two or three main things I see as the largest issues in the future are: First, I believe it is important for local officials to make every effort to maintain the outstanding industrial base that we have in our county. We also need to make sure we have a welcome mat out for new employers as well. These employers supply employment with excellent pay and benefits.

Secondly, we need the families that work in our county to live in our county. We have hurdles with this, as we do not have the sewer and water infrastructure to aid in housing growth. We must focus not only on single family residents, but condos, apartments and housing for the elderly as well.

With added housing, bring families that supply a larger tax base and extra state funding for our excellent school systems will follow. We must work

with state and federal officials, along with other neighboring utilities to find ways to support infrastructure improvements in our community.

I have the support from a number of diverse organizations.

Other relevant facts about me: (experience, education, other service or positions held, etc.) I am currently a Client Relationship Manager with Enertouch, Inc., delivering energy efficiency programs to Indiana and throughout the country.

I understand the importance of networking as we seek the best outcomes for Posey County. I believe my past experience on the Council has been beneficial to the positive moves the County has made in the recent past.

The challenges that lay ahead are the reduction of income. This is partly due to the property tax circuit breaker legislation that placed caps on the tax revenue to the counties.

In order to continue top quality service to the community we must seek creative ways to reduce expenditures.

The County Council must work closely with the County Commissioners as we develop spending priorities to reach the highest potential for Posey County.

BLACK TOWNSHIP Teresa Blackburn

My full name is: Teresa K. Blackburn I am seeking the office of: Black Township Trustee I am affiliated with (which) party: Democratic My family consists of: my husband, Alan; three sons, Shane, John (Jenny), and Mark (Heidi); seven grandchildren; and three great-grandchildren.

The primary reason or reasons I am seeking this office: I see the need of the less fortunate in Black Township and feel that I have the compassion to work with them to better their lives. I want to help families move forward by working with all resources available to them.

I want to give them a hand up not a hand out. I feel that I can improve collaboration between the Trustee’s Office and other Posey County Agencies and Trustees to better serve our less fortunate. I also see the need of the Black Township Fire and Rescue for safe trucks, updated equipment, and adequate training.

I am qualified to hold this office because: I have been an office manager and have bookkeeping experience through my previous 28 years of employment with Hawley, Hudson & Hawley law firm (later merged

Lindsay Suits with Bamberger, Foreman, Oswald & Hahn, LLP).

I have been in the same situation as some of the less fortunate of our community. At one point, I was a single, low income, working mother who had to address issues such as babysitting, gas, automobile expenses, rent, utilities, groceries, medical and prescription expenses, and the daily stress of trying to make ‘ends meet.’

I can empathize because I have ‘been there, done that.’

The thing that I most want the voters of Posey County to know about me is: I truly care. I do not look at the Black Township Trustee position as a job. Rather, I look at it as a mission to help the less fortunate of Black Township and to aid the Black Township Fire and Rescue in keeping homes and lives safe during emergency situations.

The main two or three things I see as the largest issues in the near future are: The need for collaboration between other Posey County Agencies and Trustees and fairness for dispensing aid; The need for expansion of the hours of the Black Township Trustee Office in order to be a full-time rather than a part time office; and making sure Black Township Fire and Rescue’s trucks are safe, equipment updated, and funding is available for adequate training for their safety and the safety of the property and lives of Black Township rural residents.

My solution for these issues is: I will work in a collaborative fashion with other Posey County Agencies and Trustees for the benefit of Black Township residents. I will expand the number of hours for the office, thus increasing accessibility for

I think that this position is a his place to start because of my familiarity with the community and with the day to day operations of a fire department.

fessional firefighter/EMT for the City of Evansville. This gives me the same perspective that our local firefighters have when it comes to budget considerations and work environment. I am a fiscal conservative who strongly believes in maintaining public safety.

My schedule allows me to be accessible to members of the community who wish to voice concerns or suggestions concerning the utilization of township resources.

What I most want the people of Posey county to know about me is this: I have dedicated my life to helping others.

Many times at risk to my own life. In this instance I will also do my best to ensure that I am an asset to the voters and not a liability.

The main issues I see in the near future are: Responsibly managing the funds of the township; Ensuring that the public continues to enjoy the same level of service (or better) from it’s public servants.

Both those in elected offices and those out there saving lives.

My solution for these issues: Communication with the public, utilization of my own experience in public safety, ap-

I will assist the Black Township Fire and Rescue with short-term and long-term strategic planning and funding necessary to keep equipment, tools, and training current, thus providing excellent service to the citizens of Black Township.

If elected, you can count on me to: treat everyone with compassion and respect and allow them to keep their dignity.

I, by no means, want them to feel as if they are lower than me. We are equals.

The one thing that sets me apart from my opponent is: I have ‘walked in their shoes.’ As previously mentioned, I have been a low-income working mother. I have also been a caregiver for my aging parents and have worked through agencies with them in order to get them to a point where they could live quality lives in their senior years.

Other relevant facts about me: (experience, education, other service or positions held, etc.) I have recently shadowed Kathryn Martin, Knight Township Trustee, who was named 2014 Trustee of the Year, and her Chief Deputy, Tony Goben, in order to learn more about the position of Trustee.

I recently attended and received certification for Sessions 1 and 2 of the Bridges Out Of Poverty course, where I learned about the availability of resource agencies which will benefit the Black Township Trustee’s Office.

I am doing everything possible to be prepared to be an effective Trustee.

Since becoming your trustee in 2011 one of the many ways I’ve served the tax payers is by being proactive and innovative in my approach to provide ways in which we can maximize our resources to meet not just the needs of the few but also the many. Some of these improvements came in the form of: Being the first township in Indiana to drug test township assistance recipients; Incorporating a state recognized software program for township assistance and accounting making retrieval of data more readily available; Creating township guidelines that are reviewed every year and modified according to 150 percent of poverty level; Collaborating with outside organizations such as Vincennes University and Warrick County School Corp. to bring G.E.D. registration and testing to Mount Vernon at no cost to the tax payers; Establishing the first annual Back 2 School Bash which provides necessary school and personal care supplies to any school-aged child.

One of the many things that set me apart from my opponent is my commitment to drug testing recipients of assistance.

This helps determine if they’re wasting resources that should otherwise be used for necessities such as bills, food, clothing, etc. Black Township began drug testing in 2012 and each person who tests positive is given the opportunity to enroll in a drug treatment program at no cost to them. With an average of 12 percent of applicants that test positive, not one person to date has accepted the offer of drug treatment. My opponent has made it clear that she will discontinue drug testing and by doing so, sends a clear message of tolerance and support for this crippling cycle that we, as tax payers, become unwilling supporters of. For those keeping score, I’ve saved township tax payers 15 percent since 2011, therefore I’m doing more with less.

I am qualified to hold this office because: My 50-plus years experience in daycare and currently, along with being an Avon representative I still see a lot of need. I have worked in the soup kitchen for 13 years and worked in my church for 43 years. I have seen lots of need.

The thing that I most want the voters of Posey County to know about me is: I want the voters of Posey County to know that I am Honest, Reliable, Compassionate, and Loyal.

The main two or three things I see as the largest is-

My goal has been clear since 2010: ‘Break the Cycle of Dependency.’ I’ve demonstrated this goal through establishing community needs assessment, networking with local organizations, educational programs and most importantly, by building professional, positive, and honest relationships with the clients.

If re-elected I would like to introduce a summer program that is offered in the months of June and July where the focus is on Math and Reading. These are the most at risk subjects according to the ISTEP Test Scores. This is Not an extension of the school year, however, it will bring much needed hands on learning and fun filled activities to children while providing consistency in a structured environment. Let’s get these kids off the streets and let’s protect our future by investing in them.

Another area with huge growth potential is the Mount Vernon Youth Baseball Program. Young families gravitate toward communities that offer vibrant and kid friendly programs. By providing support for these programs, we’re creating an exciting environment that attracts additional families to our community.

I will continue to support family focused programs such as Strengthening Families and Neighbor to Neighbor as well as supporting adult education and I pledge to seek additional services that will bring value to the citizens of Black Township.

Economic Development is also vital to our community’s success and that’s why I’d like to see vocational classes offered in Mount Vernon. These classes would provide a source of job training thru which individuals can gain valuable skills which will set them apart for careers at various levels while at the same time serving as a draw to bring employees and employers to our community.

In closing, I’d like to thank you for taking time to get to know each candidate. I hope that I’m your clear choice for Black Township and you vote Suits 4 Trustee this 2014 election year.

BOARD sues in the near future are: Main things I see as the largest issues in the near future are help for utilities and food. Solutions are see the real needs and try to find funds available.

My solution for these issues is: If elected I plan to attend meetings and see monies handled and disbursed properly, see that public knows where monies go.

The one thing that sets me apart from my opponent is: I have lived many years in the shoes of these needy people and understand what they are going through.

I have served on many committees and boards in school and church, on Cub Scouts committees and helped with Girl Scouts, Pastor Parish, Mission Committee. My home has been in Posey County since 1966.

BOARD

Vincent Frazier

My name is Vince Frazier. I am running for Marrs Township Advisory Board. I have lived in Marrs township for over 24

years.

I have had the pleasure of serving on the Posey County Young Life board for many years. I am quite familiar with the needs of the youth of our community, and also the problems faced by many adults.

If elected, it is my intent to use our tax dollars as efficiently as possible to maximize their impact. I understand the importance to Marrs township of having the best available fire department, ambulance services, and the importance of civic use areas like sports fields. I also understand that the township trustee, whom I will work with, has a critically important job to

assist our less advantaged citizens. This area is being grossly overlooked by the current trustee. I promise to do my best to help our poor citizens get back on their feet.

Although the trustee’s office and the associated advisory board doesn’t have business growth as part of its primary goal, I also support doing whatever possible to attract new businesses and new families to Posey County. The trustee’s office can work toward promoting Posey County by using tax dollars wisely and supporting the other county agencies in their efforts, and that is what I intend to do if elected.

Fire and Rescue are adequately equipped and trained to safely fight fires and execute emergency to services to people in all corners of the township.

My solution for these issues is: to serve as a champion for broad stakeholder discussion during essential decision-making processes.

One thing that sets me apart from my opponents is: that my unique skill set allows me to bring creative problem solving, financial stewardship,

and compassion to the complex issues tackled by Black Township Board. As the only nonsuburban/urban candidate for Black Township Board, I am particularly aware of the special circumstances and challenges firefighters and first responders face when called to a rural crisis.

DISTRICT 1

Katherine Weinzapfel

Kathy Weinzapfel Mount Vernon School Board District 1 I have been married to my husband Rick for over 36 years We have two daughters and one son-in-law.

I am seeking my second term to the Mount Vernon School Board. We have been able to do some significant things in the last four years such as reduce the general

fund budget as required by the state legislature. Our teaching staff has given tremendous support toward the necessary changes.

We have now gotten to a point where we can offer them some reward for their patience, loyalty and exceptional talents.

I would like very much to see the next chapter in the progress of the school, the new staff and the students.

I have spent nearly my entire professional career working with youth. First, as the Posey Co. Youth Educator for Purdue, then as a reading specialist and nine years as the educational liaison to over 1,200 compromised youth at a regional residential youth home. I stay abreast of teacher preparation through my role at USI. I have a comprehensive understanding of the challenges for both teachers and the students because I

have been a teacher and know the circumstances that inhibit a student’s preparedness to learn. I have the unique opportunity to provide feedback to MSD Mount Vernon on how our graduates compare to other college students from other schools.

The greatest concern both Posey County School corporations are facing is student

recruitment and retention.

General fund money, (salaries for employees) is directly attached to student enrollment. We need to market the communities as safe, comfortable places to live with excellent educational programs.

Whether industry is present in the county or not people need to live within these school districts.

WHY YOU SHOULD VOTE • THE CANDIDATES

NORTH POSEY SCHOOL BOARD

DISTRICT 1

Geoff Gentil

My full name is: Geoffrey Allen Gentil I am seeking the office of: School Board District 1 MSD of North Posey County My Family Consists of: My wife is Kristina Gentil who is an RN at Deaconess Clinic. We have four children: Rylan is 21 and a senior at Georgian Court University in Lakewood, N.J.; Jace is 20 and a sophomore at Hanover College in Hanover, Ind.; Lyndsey is 11 and a fifth grader at North Elementary; and Seth is six and a first grader at North Elementary. Both Rylan and Jace are recent graduates of North Posey.

The primary reason or reasons I am seeking this office: I love North Posey and the North Posey Community. I have lived in the North Posey Community all of my life and it was very important to me that we raise our family in this community and send our children to North Posey. That said, North Posey and the Community of North Posey are facing challenging times with declining population and declining enrollment. The school corporation is the single largest employer in our community and is the largest tool we have to market our commu-

nity. I am at a point in my life both personally and professionally where I can devote the time needed to work with the school corporation to continue its longstanding tradition of delivering excellent education and help with efforts to reverse the declining population and enrollment trends.

I am qualified to hold this office because: As the newest elected member, I currently serve on the School Board.

Over the last four years of serving on the school board, I’ve gained valuable experience in the organization/operation of school corporations, the role with the state government, and exposed to all of the major new changes that are affecting education. My position as a commercial lender with Banterra Bank and 13 years of banking experience has provided me invaluable experience to add value in the preparation and oversight of the school corporation’s budget. For the past 13 years, I have been serving on several community and not-for-profit boards. In most cases, I have served as an officer on those boards charged with setting policy as well as establishing and managing budgets. Through my professional career, my involvement with various boards and organizations, and my recent term on the school board, I’ve developed strong working relationships with our state and local government officials, which will be valuable resources as we navigate the current challenges we face.

The thing that I most want the voters of Posey County to know about me is: I love North Posey and the North Posey Community. As our young peo-

ple graduate from high school, I want them to have that same sense of pride with our schools and our community. I want them to have the job opportunities that allow them to choose to live and raise their families in our community. I want them to choose to send their children to North Posey and they can have the same, great education experience we did.

The main two or three things I see as the largest issues in the near future are: The three largest issues are state funding, declining enrollment, and declining population trends. Funding is by far the biggest concern we face in education as the state continues to increase what is required from schools in public education but does not fully fund those requirements. Declining population and enrollment trends are equally a big concern because the state’s methodology of funding schools is largely based on funding per student. As enrollment drops, funding from the state drops.

My solution for these issues is: In terms of funding, we have to continue to seek out all options available to us via the state for funding and maximize those programs/grants that best suit our school district. As a board, it’s critical that our formulation and administration of our budget is impeccable. We have no room for error when it comes to projecting head counts (which is what our state funding is based on) or monitoring of spending. We need to reach out to the business community and look for creative ways to help offset financial deficiencies caused by the state funding formula to continue to provide the

Cort.

I am seeking this office because I enjoy making a difference in the lives of kids.

I am qualified for this office because of my previous twelve years of school board experience, eight of them as president.

I would like the voters to know that I will vote to do whatever is best for the kids, no matter what district that they live in.

I have two major concerns, the first is understanding what the state standards are going to be, and the second is funding.

The standards are out of our local control, so there is not much the board can do about that.

On the funding issue, we need to spend what money we have wisely, and be creative in ways

to stretch our funds, and still be able to give our teachers and staff the raises and/or stipends that they deserve.

If elected, you can count on me to be available to listen to your concerns.

The one thing that sets me apart from my opponent is the experience that I have form being on previous school boards.

I am an Indiana School Boards Association Master Member, member of the Posey County Community Foundation, member of St. Francis Catholic Church Parrish Council, adult member of Boy Scout Troop 386, member of the Ribeyre Gym Restoration Group Board of Directors, and an Operations Supervisor at CountryMark Refinery.

needed technology and resources our teachers and staff require to be successful. We must look for ways to reverse the declining enrollment trends. We have to take on a larger role of marketing our schools/community and partnering with the industry and business leaders of our community in these marketing efforts. We have to take a lead role and work diligently with our local economic development efforts so that we can continue to bring jobs to our community that in turn brings increased housing that in turn increases enrollments.

If elected you can count on me to: You can count on me to continue to be a good steward for the taxpayers by making the best decisions regarding the children, teachers, employees, school corporation, and our community. I will continue my efforts in bringing more transparency to the school board by creating easier access to school board meet-

ings and create an atmosphere that welcomes people to attend, welcomes the public’s comments, engages feedback, and encourages the community to participate. I want to make sure our corporation is known for its atmosphere of success that encourages our administrators, teachers, and staff to work together and continue to deliver the best education and experience possible The one thing that sets me apart from my opponent is: My experience and network of contacts. The experience I have gained by serving on the school board, serving on the other various not-for-profit boards, and through my banking career will continue to be an invaluable resource. The network of contacts (business leaders, community leaders, local and state government elected officials, and education leaders) will be equally valuable as we look to improve funding sources and reverse the declining trends in

population and enrollment.

Other relevant facts about me: (experience, education, other service or positions held, etc.) I currently serve on the Posey County Economic Development Partnership on the Executive Committee. I continue to be a volunteer for Junior Achievement serving as an instructor in the classrooms at both North Posey Junior High and North Posey High School. My kids and I are active with youth sports as well as various extra-curricular school activities. I’ve been exposed to the education process and school system my entire life.

I understand and can relate to what our teachers and administrators face daily in our schools.

My father served 27 years in the North Posey school system and 30-plus years total in education.

In addition, I successfully completed and obtained an Indiana state teacher’s license as my initial chosen occupation out of college.

maintain a good financial standing. I believe a strong, informed school board is necessary for the continued success of our school district and its students.

The main two or three things I see as the largest issues in the near future are: I have become ever more concerned as politicians have increasingly moved control away from the local level. Education is, and always should be, a local matter. Ensuring a local community voice in education is essential to establishing a trusting relationship in which our students can thrive. The federalization of education has led to a largely, one-size-fits-all education model. Students and teachers are individuals and will not succeed when pushed to conformity. The same can also be said for school corporations. The primary purpose of public education is to produce informed citizens. All students should graduate with a base set of skills and knowledge to be successful both inside and outside the classroom. The new bond being discussed by the current school board is also a large issue. An open line of communication is very important to ensure the public is aware of the implications of the new bond. This is especially true for the residents of New Harmony who will feel the greatest impact on their taxes from the new bond.

My solution for these issues is: A strong, informed school board must be willing to look outside the box to maintain and ensure flexibility in education.

Open communication between the school board and the community is essential to maintaining a positive relationship built on mutual trust and respect.

School board members should be accessible to the community and be willing to explain decisions and policies. School board meetings should be easily accessible and comfortable for all community members to attend and make their voice heard. In past years, school board meetings were held in different locations to make it easier for the community to attend. If elected, I will encourage a rotation of school board meetings to include communities within the district. Obviously certain is-

sues must be resolved in executive session; but, executive session should only be used, and is only permissible, in a few very specific circumstances. Open dialogue must be maintained to keep community trust and ensure rumors are suppressed.

If elected, you can count on me to: If elected, I promise to be easily accessible to the public. I will request my contact information be made available on the corporation website and my phone number will continue to be in the local phone book. I will always be able and willing to explain my votes and opinions on the issues. I will make decisions based on what is best for the 1414 students (hopefully more next year) of the MSD of North Posey. School board meetings should be easily accessible and comfortable for all community members to attend and make their voice heard. My priority will be to ensure this happens. North Posey is the ninth-ranked school corporation in the state and one of the few ‘A’ rated corporations in the area. Ensuring continued success is a priority. Keeping an open dialogue among teachers, parents, administration, and school board is essential to this success.

The one thing that sets me apart from my opponents is (other relevant facts about me): Unlike any other candidate for North Posey School Board, I have been a career professional inside the classroom and know and understand the community commitment necessary to develop successful students. I have been a professional firefighter for the past eleven years. Prior to this, I was a high school history teacher. I am a lifetime resident of the New Harmony/Wadesville area and a proud 1997 graduate of North Posey High School. I have a BA with a double major in Social Science Secondary Education and History. I married my high school sweetheart, Amber, and we have three children. Brant and Kaity (twins) are in the second grade at North Elementary and Samuel, our three-year-old, will soon be attending. I have been a New Harmony/Wadesville resident for my entire life and can’t imagine raising my children anywhere else.

Vince Oakley

My full name is: Vince Oakley I am seeking the office of: MSD of North Posey School Board I am affiliated with which party: Non Partisan My family consists of: My wife of 11 years, Amber; Kaitlyn and Brant (eight-year-old twins); Samuel (three-yearsold).

The primary reason I am seeking this office: I believe that the MSD of North Posey is a great school corporation.

An open line of communication between the community and those in charge of the formal education of our children is essential to maintaining this high standing. As a parent of three young children, I want to play a positive, active role in the decisions being made in their formal education. School Board is the policy making body of the corporation. Policy-making is the best way to provide responsive public involvement in the education process.

I am qualified to hold this office because: As a parent of three children, I am invested in the continued success of the schools in the district. I am firmly committed to ensuring the public have a voice in the decisions being made in educating our youth. I will do my own research on the issues which come before the board and my votes will always be for the good of the students and not what is easiest or most popular. I am not afraid to voice my opinion, even when I do not agree with the majority.

School Boards are the governing bodies in education and must provide the guidelines for success within which administrators manage. School board members should all have the success of the students as their priority, but differing opinions on issues are a healthy part of the decision and policy making process.

The thing I most want the voters of Posey County to know about me is: My decision to run for school board is not one which was made hastily or without prayerful consideration. I have been attending the school board meetings for about two years. During these years, I have watched as more and more mandates are put on our district and its teachers. Unfortunately, the money hasn’t followed the mandates, and schools have had to find some creative ways to

My family consists of: my wife Sandy Schmitt, my sevenyear-old son Jonathan (second grader at South Terrace), and my four-year-old daughter Emily.

The primary reasons I am running for office is: to preserve and further improve the quality of education provided at the MSD of North Posey.

Our entire community benefits from the success of our schools. As lifelong residents and graduates of North Posey, Sandy and I are passionate about fully preparing our children for college and the competitive environment of the Twenty-first Century.

I am qualified to hold this office because: I am not afraid to ask the difficult questions

needed to solve the issues brought to the school board. By listening and considering the opinions from the entire community, I will make informed decisions with the greatest benefit to our students. My 12 years of experience as an engineer have further improved my problem solving skills.

The thing that I most want the voters of Posey county to know about me is: As a graduate of North Posey and father of two future Viking graduates, I believe each of us have the responsibility to provide the best education possible to our children. As a board member, I would like to make the decisions that positively impact the education of our children.

The main two or three

things I see as the largest issues in the near future are: Our largest issues at the MSD of North Posey are: Open communication between the board, administrators, teachers, parents, and the community, Prioritization of our capital funded projects, and implementation of these projects.

My solution for these issues is: Open communication is the key to each of these issues. I will be a conduit between the board, administrators, teachers, and community for the best interest of our students. As an engineer I am tasked daily with decisions based on the risk involved, the costs of different options, the given facts, the requests, and opinions of many. We may not

always agree on a solution, but our community will greatly benefit from open communication.

If elected you can count on me to: Seek and listen to the opinions of the whole community and the faculty and staff of the MSD of North Posey. I will work diligently to make informed decisions for the greater benefit of our students.

The one thing that sets me apart from my opponents is: My work experiences as an engineer have provided me with the communications, problem solving, budgeting, leadership, and project management skills to maintain and invest in our schools. As an assistant baseball coach at North Posey, I also gained firsthand

knowledge of the dedication given by our teachers, parents, and students to fully prepare our children for college, trade school, and the competitive environment of the Twenty-first Century.

Other relevant facts about me: (experience, education, other service, or positions held, etc). After 10 years at Whirlpool and a strong suspicion that they would shortly be leaving our community, I made the difficult decision to move to Frontier Kemper Constructors. The base of my decision was to keep my family in the North Posey School District.

I believe that North Posey is providing and will continue to provide my children with the best possible education.

District 2 The primary reason or reasons I am seeking this office: My husband and I have chosen to raise our two children here and have entrusted the North Posey School District with their education.

Hannah is a freshman at North Posey and Clay is in the sixth grade at South Terrace. I could not be any more proud of the educational experience they have received. This school system and this community have given so much to me and my family that I decided this would be a great opportunity for me to give back.

I am qualified to hold this office because: I have a business background, two children in this school district and the drive to make our school system better.

The thing that I most want the voters of Posey County to know about me is: I am ethical and trustworthy. My career relies on it. I work with a lot of sensitive data and my job is to make sure it stays secure. I am committed to bringing those same values to the school board. I want to make sure that every decision made has the children’s best interest in mind.

The main two or three things I see as the largest issues in the near future are: Keeping our great teachers; Staying up-to-date with technology; Increasing our enrollment numbers while maintaining decent classroom sizes My solution for these issues is: None of these issues have easy solutions. What I can offer is that I am willing to put in time to do the proper due diligence, listen to the constituents, and hear all of the facts before I form my opinion and make my vote.

If elected, you can count

on me to: I am committed to putting the children first, listening, being objective and making sound decisions. I will work to strengthen the connection between our schools, teachers and families.

The one thing that sets me apart from my opponent is: I have a technical background with over 15 years’ experience in various IT areas. My most recent focus has been on auditing and compliance of network infrastructures and applications. I can use those skills to ask the tough questions and problem solve solutions to big picture items.

Other relevant facts about me: (experience, education, other service or positions held, etc.) My husband and I are both life-long residents of the North Posey Community.

I have shown my commitment to this community through many volunteered hours at school events, youth sports, and service organizations. I have a B.S. in Business from Indiana University with a concentration in Computer Information Systems and over 15 years’ experience in Information Security for financial institutions. I would appreciate your vote.

future so they should be our number one priority and I have been mentoring students for the past 15 years.

The thing that I most want the voters of Posey County to know about me is: I’m dedicated, hard-working, loyal, and honest. I will always do what I say. My decision making will be based research, information, and prayer.

The main two or three things I see as the largest issues in the near future are: I believe the district should be focused on three main priorities. First, decide which capital improvements need to be made throughout the district that will best benefit the education of our students. Second, give our administrators, teachers, and staff, the resources and support to maintain our four star school status. Third, ensure our graduates are adequately prepared for their next stage in life whether it is higher education or the workforce.

My solutions for these issues is: Listening to the people in the community and listening to the teachers and administrators who are responsible for educating our children. Then making decisions based on what I believe will best serve educating our students.

If elected, you can count on me to: Be fair and open. If I say that I will do something, you can bet I will do it. I will always be a voice for each resi-

dent of our school district and a voice for our students. I will always be available for listening and discussing. I will make my contact information available to the public.

The thing that sets me apart from my opponents is: I have two sons that have graduated from the school district and are now in college.

My daughter is a sophomore at North Posey. I have experienced the education process in our school district from start to finish. I understand what has worked and what hasn’t.

We as a community need to make sure all of our graduates are competitive with others entering the next step of their lives. I’m a stay-at-home dad and have been for the past 18 years. I have the ability to go into our schools at anytime of the day during the week. This flexibility will give me the opportunity to see first hand how everything is working and if there are problems that need to be addressed, instead of hearing about it in a meeting.

Other relevant facts about me: I am a Young Life leader and committee member with Posey County Young Life (A non-denominational Christian Ministry), Junior Achievement volunteer in the North Posey School District. While volunteering at events in our school district, I have worked closely with many teachers and administrators.

Amy Will

My full name is: Amy Will I am seeking the office of: North Posey School Board,

Rick Sellers

My name is Rick S. Sellers and I look forward to the opportunity and privilege of being elected to the North Posey School Board (District 2).

My wife, Lisa and I have raised both our children here in Posey County. Our daughter, Kylie Paulson and son, Korben Sellers are both graduates of North Posey.

The reason I decided to run for North Posey School Board is simple. Our schools are very important to me. Our children are valuable resources and we must do everything to help those educating them. I believe that budgeting ought to reflect our desire to see educators properly resourced and encouraged to accomplish their responsibilities. Our educators also need to be held accountable and encouraged for

Brett Stock their dedication.

Am I qualified to hold this office? I am a firm believer in biblical instruction. Yes, this means that I am a Christian. If elected I will bring the values I carry in my personal life, accountability, trust, integrity, etc. Am I the perfect person for this position? I really cannot answer that but I will do my best to learn what is needed to complete this responsibility and give my all to serve our community as a member of the North Posey School Board.

What issues do I see that concern those in the North Posey School District? The school board is elected by the voters to maintain accountability to the schools and community, fair and impartial and adhere to high educational standards. There must be openness and willingness to maintain communication. Parents are given a great responsibility and part of that responsibility is in the educational development of their children. These parents deserve a school board that will represent them fairly.

If you elect me to represent you as a member of the North Posey School Board, I will learn all I can to fulfill my responsibility. The lines of communication will be open. You deserve to have your voice

heard. From the Superintendent to the students that fill our buildings, everyone deserves the very best available. I want to do my part in keeping the standards high which have given us ‘A’ schools.

What about my opponents?

I know most of them very well and, in my opinion, you have decision to make because I believe we all have exceptional abilities to offer.

What are some important things about me? My whole life has been focused on doing what I believe is the God’s purpose for me. After completing college I began a 26 year assignment at Mt. Zion GBC as pastor.

I have served on numerous boards and committees. On the Board of Directors for Brosend Ministries I was president for about six years, others include offices of President, treasurer, Clerk and evaluations for credentials chair just to name a few.

During most of this time I also worked as a substitute teacher for North Posey schools. For a little over 22 years I drove a school bus transporting students to school and many, many sports events.

I have been committed to our community and want to continue this involvement for years to come.

My full name is: Brett Stock I am seeking the office of: North Posey School Board I am affiliated with (which party): My family consists of: My wife of 30 years – Trudy Stock. Two sons, William Stock, 23; Tyler Stock, 20; and daughter Anna Stock, 15.

Trudy, William, Tyler, and myself are all North Posey High School graduates and Anna is currently a tenth grader at North Posey.

My primary reason or reasons I am seeking this office: I want to make sure that the residents of the North Posey School District have a voice that is heard and that I am an advocate for the entire school corporation not just for certain initiatives.

I am qualified to hold this office because: I am passionate about our school system.

Children are the key to our

WHY YOU SHOULD VOTE • MORE INFORMATION

EARLY VOTING Indiana Secretary of State Connie Lawson is making a special plea to the families of military and overseas voters to connect their loved ones with an absentee ballot request. Hoosiers began voting by in-person absentee ballot, otherwise known as early voting, on October 7.

place, get driving directions to their polling location, find out who’s on their ballot, track their absentee ballot application or provisional ballot information and contact local election officials. It is a full service application designed to make voting easy for Hoosiers by making election information accessible from anywhere.

“If you are unable to make it to the polls on Elec-

tion Day, I encourage you to vote early,” said Secretary Lawson. “You can do this by visiting your county clerk’s office any business day between October 7 and noon November 3 or by requesting an absentee ballot by mail. These are great options to ensure everyone who wants to vote gets the opportunity to do so.”

Military families are encouraged to remind those serving overseas to regis-

ter and request an absentee ballot. Active duty military members and their spouses, as well as Hoosiers working overseas, should register to vote and apply for an absentee ballot by completing the Federal Post Card Application to ensure they receive their absentee ballot on time. The application can be completed online at www. fvap.gov.

“Many military members are serving far away from

home on Election Day,” said Secretary Lawson. “We are calling on those here at home to remind their loved ones serving overseas to register to vote and to apply for an absentee ballot.”

Hoosiers who are not sure if they are registered can confirm their registration information online at www.indianavoters.com or through the Indiana Voters app. Voters may also request an absentee ballot
