Quick turnaround on payment of Poseyville utilities is upheld

By Valerie Werkmeister Concerns over Poseyville’s short payment policy on utility bills were discussed at last Wednesday’s Poseyville Town Council meeting.

Dennis Wingo asked for consideration in extending the time between when bills are due and a shut-off notice is sent.

Utility bills that include gas, water and sewer fees are due on the tweity-third of each month. If payment isn’t received by that day, a late notice is generated and mailed out to delinquent customers that night. The notice states the bill must be paid before the first day of the next month or the utility will be shut off.

Wingo noted that Poseyville has the shortest turnaround time of when the bill is received and when it is due than other area towns. He also noted the short time in between the delinquent notice and the shut-off date.

He stated Owensville’s bill is sent out on the first of each month, is due on the fifteenth and the shut-off date is on the twenty-ninth. Cynthiana sends out bills on the first with a due date on the twenty-fifth and the shut-off

date is two Fridays subsequent to the due date. New Harmony sends out bills on the fifteenth which are due on the thirtieth or thirty-first of each month. The disconnect notice is sent out on the following month’s bill giving customers an entire 30 days before their utility is shut-off.

Wingo stated it’s a hardship, especially for landlords like him, who try to collect rent on the first of each month. He suggested a disconnect date should be extended by a week to the eighth of each month.

Council president Bruce Baker said the council reviewed this ordinance two years ago and they feel it has helped reduce the number of utility disconnections the town has to perform on an annual basis.

He and fellow board member, Ron Fallowfield, agreed that by having this due date structure, it forces people to contact the town hall as early as possible in order to work out payment terms if they are experiencing a hardship.

Innkeeper tax is here Questionsbring

By Valerie Werkmeister Posey County is now officially set to become part of the majority of counties within the state to have an Innkeeper’s Tax. Members of the Posey County Council approved an ordinance establishing the tax during their May 13, meeting. Prior to its passage, the council heard a lengthy discussion along with some public opposition.

Ellen Harper, a community liaison from the Indiana Office of Community and Rural Affairs (OCRA) and former Executive Director of the Knox County Convention and Visitors Bureau, delivered a presentation explaining how Knox County completed the process of establishing an Innkeeper’s Tax. The five percent tax will be assessed on rented rooms such as hotels and bed and breakfast establishments and paid by those who stay in the rooms. The tax is paid to the county treasurer, per state law, and can only be used to market and promote tourism within the county.

Harper stated Knox County established a three percent tax in 1993 and they allowed the money to accrue for several years while they developed a plan. At that time, Knox County had 500 rooms that would be eligible for the tax. Later, they increased the tax to five percent. She was finally hired as an executive director in 1998. At the end of 2013, Knox County collected $385,540 from 412 rooms.

Harper further explained that following the creation of a five member tourism commission, Knox County created a Convention and Visitors Bureau (CVB) which then created a Board of Directors.

She said the role of the CVB Board managed the day to day business including adopting policies and controlling the finances. She said this

tense moments to Cynthiana

By Valerie Werkmeister A lack of communication and frustrations over the length of time to complete projects in Cynthiana was the topic of conversation at last Tuesday’s, May 13, Cynthiana Town Board meeting.

Craig Egli said it has taken a long time to get the town to address his problems with a storm drain on his property.

“Recognizing that this has taken an excessive period of time to get to this point and not weeks or months, we’re talking years to get to this point, I guess what I’d like to realize is what’s the protocol for getting answers and or things accomplished in the Town of Cynthiana?” Egli asked.

He stated he and his wife, Laura, had spoken with town maintenance employees and board members on an individual basis in the past and asked the board whether that was sufficient or if he should have brought his concerns in front of the board.

Board president Scott Cox said he preferred that he brought his questions and concerns to the board meeting so that it can be part of the minutes. Both men noted the fact

Review of New Harmony utility reveals some issues

By Valerie Werkmeister An assessment of New Harmony’s wastewater treatment facility has revealed a few significant operational issues; according to Eric Parsley of Commonwealth Engineers, Inc. Parsley delivered a report to the New Harmony Town Council during their meeting Thursday, May 14. The council hired the firm to rate the condition of the plant and identify its assets. Parsley said that in the course of doing so, they ultimately identified operational issues and felt it was important to include them in the report.

Parsley’s report listed areas of concern and assigned priorities based on importance as well as cost. Despite some of the negatives, Parsley said there is no need to build a new plant. He stated they can fix the items that have been identified and work with what they have.

The council took the report under advisement in order to have time to review it.

Pat Callahan, CPA, gave the council highlights of a rate study he conducted on the town’s wastewater utility rates. He reviewed the town’s financial statements from the past three years. He praised the town in their diligence of transferring funds each year into an asset depreciation fund which currently has a $604,000 balance. He noted the cash operating fund has decreased over the past three years.

Callahan’s report suggested a few options to increase the rates for the utility. He stated the first option would slightly increase the monthly user’s bill by approximately $5.25.

The council took the report under advisement to have additional time to review the information.

Four bids were received and opened for the storm water project. The low bid was from Blankenberger Brothers at $546,980. Deig Brothers

OPINION

Graduates, your community is obviously proud of you Several months in advance, the staff of the Posey County News plans for many of the extra sections you see from time to time in the newspaper. There TRUTH... are agricul- STRANGER ture sections THAN and sports FICTION sections but there are BY DAVE none as im- PEARCE portant as the section included in this week’s Posey County News.

As we began to plan for this year’s section, it brought back a lot of memories. For one thing, the year ends in a four, 2014. My high school graduating class also ended in a four…1974.

I can remember just like yesterday those final weeks of school when people you had spent most of your life around finally opened up and you actually became friends instead of just classmates. The final events of the school year showed that not only had you spent the majority of 12 years with many of these people. But that you had also grown and matured together and you realized that even though you had not always gotten along with all of them, it would be the final time you would be together as a group. It was a sobering thought, yet one for celebration. It was the first major event of our adult lives.

So instead of putting just average effort into this year’s graduation section, the staff of the Posey County News in conjunction with the county’s advertisers, decided that graduation is something that should be celebrated.

It should be done with class and the graduates should be honored.

How many times in your life will you put 12 years of full-time effort into achieving a goal, particularly as a group. And while these individuals will go their separate ways and live their separate lives, they will always be able to say they achieved graduation, the completion of 12 years of schooling.

In Posey County, we sometimes take that milestone for granted because our high schools have a nearly 95 percent graduation rate. But in the bigger cities, and even in neighboring counties. The successful rate of graduation diminishes greatly.

For example, the graduation rate of the nearby Evansville-Vanderburgh School Corporation drops off significantly to between 86 and 87 percent. In Marion County (Indianapolis area), that rate falls to only 82 percent.

In Gary, Hammond, and East Chicago, the graduation rate is in the 60-65 percent range.

The fact that Posey County has a high level of graduates indicates that we value education in our area. This rate is celebrated as evidenced by the number of advertisers who have helped make this year’s commemorative graduation section possible. The fact that this area graduates so many high school students does not diminish the fact that our high school seniors have achieved something that many of their counterparts, even in this state, have been unable, for one reason or another, to achieve.

There probably is not a more bold statement anywhere in our community that shouts ‘pride’ than the graduation edition. Graduates, the people in your community are proud and happy you have chosen to remain on the right path, get a high school diploma, and dramatically enhance your chances of getting a job and providing for yourselves and your families.

Area individuals and businesses celebrate with you. It is evidenced by their willingness to spend their hard-earned money to help the Posey County News put together a keepsake such as this. The graduates and the community that supports them are to be commended.

Graduates, enjoy your final days together as a group. As I think back, I remember my class thinking we would be different. We would make every effort to keep in touch with each other and remain friends for life. But in the end, life leads us all in different directions.

By the end of the summer, you will have no idea what more that half your class is planning to do in the fall. That percentage escalates through the years. Only those who decide to return home and live and work in the area will remain in close touch. And according to statistics, that will be very few.

I remember on graduation day, May 24, 1974, most of my class went to a ‘salt pit,’ in rural southern Illinois and enjoyed the day together like we had never done before. That night, when graduation time came, we were worn out but we were ready for this night to come. After all, it was the culmination of what we had worked for the past 12 or 13 years.

Now, 40 years later, some have been suc-

cessful while others have made bad choices.

Some went on to attain higher degrees of education. Most moved on to have families of their own. And, yes, our class seems to have lost more than its share to death.

But for those of us who are still around, we have memories of our class and our classmates that no one can take from us. Looking back, some were the happiest times of our lives…others weren’t. But all in all, we grew up together and there’s a lot to be said for that.

So please take this week’s graduation section and put it somewhere for safekeeping.

The staff at the Posey County News and numerous advertisers have shown they believe in you and believe you have done something worth celebrating. And someday when you have been out of school as long as I have (in the year 2054), you can pull out the graduation section and recall just how things were during graduation week of 2014. You can smile and remember how proud your community was of your achievement. You can look back and realize that if you put your mind to it, you can do it.

Though old and faded, I still take a look at mine from time to time. You’ll be glad you saved it.

over 79 million dollars - a 164 percent increase over the past decade.

An entitlement mentality has infected the land and many politicians are eager to promote that beleaguered scheme of spreading the wealth around. It’s that Robin Hood theory which is contrary to what America was built on. The bottom line is America’s a capitalistic country and has been the most prosperous on the planet according to most, but those who want to rule by force want to change the norm and turn America into something unrecognizable. It’s a safe bet to say most Americans don’t want to live in a state of socialism ruled by the privileged few and served by the cluttered poor.

Ask yourself: Is it necessary for the price of gas to be so high when we have an abundance of natural resources? Is it justifiable to pay high

costs for food and daily necessities when inflation is being triggered by the actions of the government? Is it reasonable to think closing down coal fired electricity producing plants, because a few think they should be abolished, at the cost of higher utility bills for consumers, is really worth it? Isn’t there something the Administration can do to alleviate the afflictions 93 million Americans out of work are having?

Simply put, are all these hardships being inflicted upon Americans really necessary?

Guest Editorial: Greg Allen The undue hardships Americans endure The hardships many Americans are enduring today are excessive, unwarranted and unjustifiable, but many politicians don’t see it that way.

Hardship dictated by government is oppression no matter how you slice it.

As the White House proclaims a recovery is occurring, and the stock market has a head of steam, millions of Americans are being left out, according to economic indicators.

Perhaps the most troubling, yet least reported, aspect of the so-called US recovery involves the national labor picture. Although the official US unemployment rate is 6.3 percent, that figure obscures reality, according to an influential Wall Street adviser.

In a leaked memo to clients, David John Marotta calculated the actual unemployment rate to be an astronomic 37 percent, as opposed to the 6.3 percent claimed by the Federal Reserve.

History tells us a quarter of Americans were unemployed during the 30s and it was called a Great Depression. However, by today’s standard, a 37 percent unemployment rate isn’t even considered a recession by ambiguous thinking bureaucrats who try to obscure it all.

It isn’t glamorous to be on government assistance as some politicians have claimed. It’s a miserable hardship, poverty, no matter how you spin it.

Marotta wrote: “The unemployment rate only describes people who are currently working or looking for work. Unemployment in its truest definition, meaning the portion of people who do not have any job, is 37.2 percent.”

The author also took aim at the so-called Misery Index, which provides somewhat of a pulse rate of American prosperity, based on

unemployment and inflation. The Wall Street adviser said the Index, which he maintains is actually over 14, as opposed to the 8 advertised

by Washington, fails to address how the US economy is being hugely subsidized by various schemes, including monthly bond purchases by the Federal Reserve.

“Today, the Misery Index would be 7.54 using official numbers,” the analyst wrote. “However, taking into consideration the full unemployment picture, including workers who have given up the job search, which is 10.2 percent, together with the historical method of calculating inflation, which is now 4.5 percent, the current misery index is closer to 14.7.”

Marotta’s findings, which put the actual US unemployment rate at over 37 percent, seem more credible when viewed alongside other indicators, including the number of Americans who now rely on government assistance to make ends meet.

‘In food stamps we trust’ could no doubt be the motto for many anymore.

Food stamps are now known as Electronic Benefits Transfer tokens. It’s a fancy term used to diminish the reality of a miniscule existence, a life of poverty, dependence on the government, and the hardships that come with it.

A record 20 percent of American households received food stamps in 2013, over 47 million people, according to the USDA. It should come as no surprise that spending on the US government’s food stamp program, officially known as the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, has reached an all-time high.

Last year, SNAP cost American taxpayers

Elections Elections are good even if there are few contested races and even if many do not vote.

The opportunity to serve and the opportunity to choose who serves are what is important. It might be better if GAVEL everyone wanted to run for some GAMUT office and if everyone voted. But that ideal might render no better

BY JUDGE government than we have.

On the other hand, we do not JIM REDWINE need to ignore the facts. Few want to run and a lot do not wish to vote. Therefore, elections could be revamped to save taxpayer time and money without doing any harm to our democracy.

May 6, 2014 came and went with the active participation of mainly unopposed candidates and probably less than 10% of registered voters.

The polls were open for twelve hours with 5 paid workers at most of Posey County’s 33 precincts.

This column is not intended as an indictment of the electoral system, the politicians who designed and run it, the potential voters or those who run or do not run for office. We generally have good government run by generally good people who are elected by generally good voters. It just seems to me we could keep the good part and save money while we improve things.

If we are comfortable spending significant

amounts of money and relying on the kindness of strangers at the airlines, vacation locations, and for products via electronic means, such as Pay Pal, etc., why not vote every year or so the same way?

We now allow voter registration at events from parades to gun shows. Each of us has a unique voter identification number. One number = one vote per each available contest. We could vote over our home computers, by iPhone, iPad, etc., almost everyone has at least one, and never even have to set up one polling place.

People could vote from home, from their vehicles, while planting corn, watching ballgames, at family reunions (I suggest we should not discuss our choices) or even at the movies – strike that last one.

Nationally this would save millions of taxpayer dollars and increase voter participation greatly.

Of course, it is our Congress and state legislators who rightly should design and implement all voting procedures. And there might be a minor detail or two I have glossed over. But if the devil is in the details, what better organizations to deal with the devil than those named above who are most familiar with him.

Guest Editorial: Glenn Mollette Have we lost free speech in America?

Our First Amendment right for all Americans is free speech.

Protesters, journalists Civil-rights advocates, street preachers and all Americans have enjoyed the right of free speech.

Free speech gets on our nerves if the language doesn’t fit our philosophy, religious teachings, traditions or political views.

Free speech can inspire, encourage, help, teach and motivate but it can also tear down, torch, blaspheme and incite people to anger. Words can bless and words can burn. It only takes a spark to get a fire going. The tongue is a powerful weapon and should be used with caution.

While we are guaranteed Free speech we understand that our speech will likely generate or provoke responses that will either be kind, hostile or apathetic.

I don’t think we have as much free speech as we like to say we do. Yes, we are free to say something but then in turn we may have the wrath of the media or a large portion of the nation ready to ship us off the planet. On more than one occasion an editor or publisher has disagreed with something I have written in this column. The response is often not to publish the column or occasionally I am deleted from ever

publishing with the media source again. Therefore I am penalized because I didn’t say it in quite the right way.

If a television personality, political figure or financial giant writes or says something that is distasteful, they are likely to lose a job, an election, contracts, endorsements and much more.

Therefore while they had the freedom to utter a sentence the cost could be career breaking. Therefore, speech is not so free.

I get tired of hearing political ads and TV people rant and tear good people down.

How do they get by with that?

Maybe they are the ones who are guaranteed free speech.

There are a lot of motivational speakers making the circuit today including sales people, preachers, vitamin and cosmetic pushers. Many of these people use the first amendment to lie to people.

I guess the first amendment works well for them.

I once asked a young mother if she would take her crying baby to the nursery at church. I had the freedom to say it but it irritated some people that I said that. Others agreed with me.

I don’t think people should say things that are nasty, hate America we have the right to express ourselves. However, people have the freedom to react to what is said. Reac-

tions may be positive or brutal.

We are not a robot country that runs on daily-programmed autopilot. We are people with all kinds of backgrounds, traditions and religious or non-religious beliefs. We are free thinking people filled with failures and shortcomings.

We must do everything to maintain free and open speech in this country regardless of whether or not we like the speech. I don’t want to hear filth on the radio or TV. We don’t want our children listening to or watching it. I would be in favor of eliminating a lot of programs that I do not find appropriate.

However, I know America is not all about me. I can still say what I do or do not like.

I can say things others may not like. I can work hard, write, talk, politic, vote, campaign, verbalize prayers, make phone calls and pontificate my opinions just like the next American. And, people have the freedom to disagree and rebut.

Please let’s keep it that way, and keep it civil, for all of us.

Food drive helps community Thousands of items of food were collected during the National Association of Letter Carriers’ Food Drive last Saturday in Mount Vernon. All food items will remain in the Mount Vernon area for distribution, and the items collected in this food drive will make a big difference here in Mount Vernon for the next few weeks.

According to Sara Gibbs, rural carrier at the Mount Vernon Post Office, almost

2000 items were collected and donated to the Mount Vernon Food Bank and At the Cross Mission. Sara Gibbs said “See you all again next year and let’s try to beat this total!”

Sara Gibbs added that postal employees wish to thank the rural and city letter carriers and the volunteers from the United Way of Posey County that helped collect the food, the volunteers receiving the food, and the community for

their generous donations.

There was a food drive in New Harmony this year also.

Food items could be put in a box at the post office and were collected each day by United Way of Posey County volunteers. Items remain in the New Harmony area for distribution. According to volunteers, 93 pounds of food were collected.

Food items were also collected at the Wadesville and Poseyville post offices for local food pantries.

It will be open every Tuesday from 2 to 6 p.m., throughout the summer, beginning on June 10 and continuing until at least through the last Tuesday in August, weather permitting.

“The Mount Vernon Farmers Market continues to grow, both in number of vendors and customers,” said Jon

Neufelder, Purdue Extension Educator and Market Master for the Mount Vernon Farmers Market.

This will be the sixth year for the Farmers Market in Mount Vernon and the fourth year for the location next to McDonald’s in Mount Vernon. “This should help our customers find us quickly this year and lead to even more success this summer, if Mother Nature will cooperate,” says Neufelder.

The Mount Vernon

Farmers Market will continue its collaboration with the Wadesville Farmers Market, which will be held every Thursday afternoon through the summer, and the Posey County Farm Bureau, Inc., as the local sponsor for both Farmers Markets. The Posey County Farm Bureau assists with market insurance and other expenses for both markets.

Under the Beams’ wraps up season Under the Beams’ Concert Series will wrap up its 2014 season on Friday, May 23, with a double-billed performance featuring Swan Dive and The David Tanner Band.

Some of New Harmony’s favorite sons and daughters who have found success on the larger musical stage will present this fun and high energy ‘Homecoming Concert’ beginning at 7:45 p.m. in Murphy Auditorium.

Kicking off the evening’s concert will be Swan Dive (with Molly Felder, Bill DeMain, and Mickey Grimm), who have had three Top 10 hits in Japan and Korea and are well known and loved both abroad and in the US. The second half of the show will feature The David Tanner Band, direct from Broadway Street in Nashville, Tenn. The David Tanner Band brings some of the best musicians from Nashville to the Under the Beams stage for some ‘Honky-Tonk-A-Rama’ fun.

The concert also coordinates with New

Harmony High School’s Alumni weekend and offers the opportunity for former students of New Harmony School to spend an evening in their well-loved Murphy Auditorium. The historic and beautifully restored Murphy Auditorium was built for New Harmony’s 1914 Centennial Celebration and offers a beautiful hall to spotlight the continuing eclectic mix of musical performances that Under the Beams has brought to New Harmony for the past thirteen years.

This show begins at 7:45 p.m. to accommodate WNIN Public Radio’s live broadcast of the show following a ‘Day Out’ in New Harmony. Be a part of history as UTB celebrates New Harmony’s Bicentennial year through music, by being a part of the recorded show, and by signing the town’s Bicentennial Legacy Time Capsule in the lobby.

To learn more about Under the Beams or order tickets, please visit www.underthebeams.org or call 812-682-3128..

Trinity UCC Program to begin tonight During the weeks between Mother’s Day and Father’s Day, Nancy Johnston will present a weekly, one-hour, spiritually based program for people who have experienced any kind of loss.

“This program is not limited to people who go to any church,” says Johnston. “Everyone experiences losses of various types, such as a job, a direction in life, a home, health, or the death of significant people or roles in their life.”

The interactive, experiential program for the public will be held on Tuesdays, 6:30-7:30 p.m., at Trinity United Church of Christ, Fifth and Mulberry Streets in Mount Vernon, begin-

ning tonight. It will continue on Tuesdays, May 20 and 27 and June 3 and 10.

“I believe this would be helpful even to parents who are celebrating their children’s graduating from school and yet experiencing the grief of an empty nest,” said the Rev. Cynthia Priem.

“Nancy has led prayer-based experiences in many states. She’ll start with the basics such as what prayer is.”

Registration is not required, but people are invited to call ahead if they expect to attend.

More information may be obtained by calling Cynthia Priem at 812-457-3665.

on the cross, advanced by the church (cf. Matt. 16:1323) and will be fulfilled at the Second Coming of our Lord. God gives Peter and the disciples a kingdom “Preview Day” on a northern mountain in Israel in AD 33.

Jesus was transfigured before them. They saw firsthand a greater power than the sun—for the Son of God was light and bright. They saw a glimpse of Christ’s glory. People that had died in faith were not forgotten.

Though Moses and Elijah had already died and entered into an intermediate state; they are at this event. Scripture writers of old and new are present. The main point of Scripture, which is Jesus, is illuminated. But this was only a preview day—not the kind where you stay.

Later in Peter’s life, when his collegiate-like preview day is far in the rearview mirror, he reflects on that day of Transfiguration. This was the day when God defined Jesus as his “beloved Son” (Matt. 17:7). Peter re-

membered the voice of God that said: “Listen…to…

Him.” Peter’s application of the transfiguration event is not the demand for another sign but rather the command for listening to Jesus’ words, the Scripture.

Peter interprets kingdom Preview Day for us in light of the reliability of Scripture. Peter would die a martyr’s death because he really believed the historical gospel narrative. The Apostles didn’t die for myths.

The last written testament of Peter before he dies includes a reflection of this special day of preview, the Transfiguration. He writes: “We did not follow cleverly invented myths when we made known to you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ…And we have something more sure (than this one event this one day), (rather we have) the prophetic word , to which you will do well to pay attention as to a lamp shining in a dark place….Scripture…produced by the will of…God as (writers) were

carried along by the Holy Spirit” (2 Peter 1:18-21).

Peter is left confident in the Scripture.

And so should you be.

Take confidence in your Scriptures. You can read them, understand them, know them. God left us the Scriptures so we can know stuff about Him. This is glorious truth. As you have now previewed the days that lie ahead, remember an ancient preview day, a day in which God groomed his disciples to have reliable, final, written words of Scripture. Heaven and earth will change form but God’s words will remain the same (Luke 21:33). For there is coming a day not of preview but of permanent view. And so we pray: “Thy Kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.” As you transition to the next phase of life, we encourage you to: “Seek first the kingdom of God (Matt. 6:33).”

The promise of Scripture is that then, and only then, will your deepest desires be fulfilled.

How those funds will be spent became somewhat of a debate as some feel county officials are already vying for the funds to support county projects.

New Harmony Soap Company owner, Jim Spann, expressed concern over the announcement that the funds could be used to help pay for improvements to the county’s website. He felt it would be wiser to allow the tax funds to accumulate for a few years and formulate a plan of action on how best to direct the expenditure of those funds.

Executive Assistant Keely Winiger stated the county’s plan to update their website is already in action and the pos-

sibility of spending Innkeeper’s Tax funds on the project was only mentioned by John Taylor, Executive Director of the Economic Development Partnership, as one example in which the funds could be used.

Winiger said county officials have identified a need to have an updated website with more involvement in social media. They hope to be able to include links on their website to various hotels and businesses within the county to further promote the county and encourage tourism.

Spann is ultimately in favor of the tax and for promoting tourism in general. He noted that New Harmony will account for approximately 65 percent of the total taxes being collected as it has the largest percentage of rooms available. He stated the New Harmony Inn has 90 rooms and

with the availability of rooms through his own loft room rental as well as other bed and breakfasts including Cooks on Brewery, and the Barn Abbey, there are well over 100 rooms available in New Harmony.

Spann felt it is important to allow the tax money to accrue in order to develop a unified plan to market the county as a whole.

Cooks on Brewery co-owner, David Flanders, also spoke against the use of funds for a county website. He said the commissioners had acted on the issue without consulting any of the innkeepers within the county.

He requested the council defer any action on the ordinance since he felt there were too many unanswered questions. He said he had tried to determine the amount of funds that would be generated through the establishment of the tax and what rooms would be subject to the tax, but learned ‘there is not even a best guess estimate.’

“In an e-mail to me, commissioner [Jim] Alsop said based on counties of a similar size he believed they could raise $10,000-$30,000. Is that sufficient to justify the tax,”

Valero receives eight-year abatement, potential opportunity missed

By Valerie Werkmeister A confirmatory hearing regarding an eight year tax abatement for Valero Renewable Fuels Company, LLC, was held during the Posey County Councilâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s May 14 meeting.

Valero purchased the former Aventine plant in Mount Vernon and hope to have the ethanol plant in operation by midsummer.

During last monthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s meeting, the council approved an eight year abatement on both the real property and the equipment.

That abatement will start in 2016. A vacant building on the property will have a 100 percent tax abatement for the first year and a 50 percent abatement for the second year. That abatement will start in 2015.

Valero officials stated they are currently working on hiring individuals for the available positions and appreciated the support from the council.

The council approved the abatement.

In other business before the council, they approved a $500 transfer from county general to the Veteranâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Service Officer, Dave Sharber. The funds were a reimbursement for travel expenditures.

Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Director Chuck Thompson requested permission to transfer $148 from county general to capital outlay- equipment. The department had received the funds as a donation to purchase a new grill for one of its stations.

Thompson shared information regarding the cost to remount one of the ambulances used in Poseyville. He has been working with Jerry Wilderman in St. Phillips who owns a business

building and remounting emergency vehicles including fire trucks and ambulances.

Wildermanâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s quote to remount the ambulance on a Chevy chassis with a diesel motor would be $67,886.30. To do the remount on with a gas motor, the cost decreases to $56,570.66.

Other remount businesses have given Thompson quotes as high as $98,000 to do the same job.

Council member Alan Blackburn said that heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to see the council go with gas motor as opposed to the diesel. He felt if things go well and there are few problems with the remount, they could do the same thing the following year. The savings they would accumulate would allow them to purchase a new unit in a few years without having to borrow any money.

Thompson preferred gas over diesel as it would be less expensive to operate.

The EMS department may review some of its rates and determine if an increase is necessary. Thompson stated that Posey Countyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s rates are much less than other ambulance services in the area. They also do not charge individuals for ambulance refusals whereas other companies do.

No action was taken at this time.

A request by Auditor Kyle Haney to transfer $109,000 to the Rainy Day Fund was approved.

Haney also requested to spend $2,600 to have 115 older county plat books transferred to digital media. The information will also be stored offsite which will protect the data in the event of a disaster such as a fire. The funds will be taken from the Auditorâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ineligible deduction fund. The council approved his request.

Armstead sentenced to 74 years Derrick Demarco Armstead was sentenced today by the Honorable S. Brent Almon, Judge of the Posey County Superior Court, to a total sentence of 74 years executed at the Indiana Department of Corrections as a result of the July 29, 2013 knife attack upon sixtysix (66) year old Larry Bradshaw and his twenty-four (24) year old son, Christopher Bradshaw. This attack occurred in the Twin Lakes Mobile Home Park on the south east side of Posey County. A jury trial was held between April 8 and 11, 2014 and the Posey County jury then returned â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;guiltyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; verdicts for the offenses of Count 1: Attempted Murder, a Class A Felony; Count 2: Aggravated Battery, a Class B Felony; Count 3: Battery By Means of a Deadly Weapon, a Class C Felony; and Count 4: Battery

By Means of a Deadly Weapon, a Class C Felony.

Armstead was also charged with being a Habitual Offender. Armsteadâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s two prior felony convictions were from Vanderburgh County and included the 1992 conviction for Voluntary Manslaughter and the 2008 Operating a Motor Vehicle While Intoxicated. Judge Almon ruled that Armstead was in fact a Habitual Offender on April 14, 2014.

During the sentencing hearing, Judge Almon vacated the convictions for Count 2 and 3 as those charges involved the same injuries Larry Bradshaw received as a result of Armsteadâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Attempted Murder charge as filed in Count 1. The

State of Indiana called Victoria Bradshaw, Larry Bradshawâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s wife and Christopher Bradshawâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mother, to testify during the sentencing hearing. She testified that both she and Larry Bradshaw thought he might die as a result of his having been stabbed multiple times by Armstead. She further testified that her husband suffered severe pain as a result of his injuries and that her husband is no longer physically able to help his neighbors like he did before the attack.

Judge Almon sentenced Armstead on Count 1: Attempted Murder, a Class A Felony, to 38 years in prison.

That sentence was enhanced by an additional 30 years as a result of the Habitual Offender finding. The total sentence in Count 1 was 68 years executed at the Indiana Department of Corrections. Judge Almon then sentenced Armstead on Count 4: Battery By Means of a Deadly Weapon, a Class C Felony, to an additional 6 years in prison. Count 1 involved Larry Bradshaw as the victim and Count 4 involved Christopher Bradshaw as the victim.

Judge Almon also ordered the sentences in Count 1 and Count 4 to be served consecutively to each other for a total sentence of 74 years executed at the Indiana Department of Corrections. Armstead is currently 42 years old and would be approximately 78 years old upon his release from prison.

Armstead will also be required to register as a â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;sex or violent offenderâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; upon his release

from prison.

Chief Deputy Prosecutor Jonathan Parkhurst stated, â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are very satisfied with this sentence. Armstead shot and killed a man in Vanderburgh County when he was 18 or 19 years old. He claimed selfdefense in that shooting and again claimed self-defense after attacking Larry and Christopher Bradshaw with a knife.

The Vanderburgh County jury in 1992 and the Posey County Jury last month each refused to believe his claim of selfdefense. When he was released from prison, he returned to Vanderburgh County and was quickly convicted of multiple felony and misdemeanor offenses there involving possession of marijuana, operating a vehicle while intoxicated, batteiy and resisting law enforcement. He was living with his girlfriend in the Twin. Lakes Mobile Home Park in Posey County in July of 2013 when he brutally attacked Larry and Christopher Bradshaw. Larry Bradshaw was the mobile home park â&#x20AC;&#x153;handy manâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; and he only stopped to ask if he could help Armstead before assaulted and repeatedly stabbed by Arrnstead. Derrick Armstead deserves to spend the rest of his adult life in prison for the crimes he committed and we are hopeful that the sentence imposed today by Judge Almon will ensure that he does just thatâ&#x20AC;?.

A salary ordinance for the community corrections program that included a $500 raise for each position was approved. The full-time positions include a director, corrections officer and case manager. Currently, the corrections officer position has not been filled so the raise will not be reflected in that position. The program operates on grant funding and does not use county general funds. However, council members took issue that an ordinance had to be drafted by the county attorney at this time of year rather than at budget time.

Executive Assistant Keely Winiger stated that department members waited to initiate their raises to ensure other expenditures could be paid first. The grant money must also be used or it must be returned.

A $10 motor vehicle excise tax for motorcycles was also approved. Council member Tom Schneider was the lone nay vote.

Economic Development Director John Taylor addressed the council to inform them of a missed potential business opportunity. He read a letter in part, that stated a potential business was interested in locating to our county if empty warehouse is available to suit its needs.

Taylor has been a long-time proponent of establishing an industrial park or having an empty building ready for opportunities such as these.

Taylor said he would respond to the company and advise them Posey County does not currently have any buildings to meet their needs.

The next Posey County Council meeting will be held on Tuesday, June 10, at 9 a.m. in the Hovey House in Mount Vernon.

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;New Harmonyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; continued from Page A1 ers had the highest bid at $942,416. Other bids were from Hughes Paving at $766,530 and Ragle, Inc. at $855,007.

The bids will be reviewed and awarded at the next meeting.

A ribbon-cutting ceremony has been planned for the opening of the new portion of the trail. It will be held on Saturday, June 7, at 10 a.m. at the trail opening on Third and North Streets.

Andrew Wilson informed the council of plans to repair 59 gravesite markers at the cemetery over the weekend. They also planned

to do several other general maintenance chores including cleaning the stones and painting.

Connie Weinzapfel gave the council an update on the timeline for the upcoming Bicentennial celebration.

All events are updated on the townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s website at http:// www.newharmony-in.gov. A link to the calendar of events is located at the top of the page. The capstone week is scheduled from August 1-10 with a number of events including local musicians, tree dedication, 5k run, a parade and picnic as well as a ceremonial evening with several

public officials planning to speak.

The council approved a request from PC Pound Puppies to use the former school parking lot during Kuntsfest for parking during their bike ride event.

David Flanders of the New Harmony Business Associates thanked the council for their continued support during the recent Arts in Harmony event. He stated the next event will be the Golden Raintree Antique Show on June 14-15.

The next council meeting will be on Thursday, June 19, at 5 p.m. in the town hall.

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Turnaroundâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; continued from Page A1 Both felt that by extending the date, it would increase the hardship on customersâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; ability to pay and they could fall behind even further. The town also has to set limits in order to have adequate cash flow to pay its bill to the gas supplier. They agreed that the current structure has reduced the townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s overall losses.

Baker agreed to review the ordinance again to take Wingoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s concerns into consideration.

Wingo also questioned whether the current conditions at Dollar General qualified as a fire hazard. He noted that often the aisles are blocked or impassable due to racks of products that have not been stocked. Conditions in the store have worsened significantly in the past nine months due to personnel changes.

Complaints have been voiced to the corporate office.

Jeff Droege of the Poseyville Fire Department agreed and said the State Fire Marshallâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Office had been contacted regarding the aforementioned issues. The fire department noted a problem with a lack of access to the storeâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s electrical box in case of emergency. He added the store has recently received new fire

extinguishers, but was unsure of the outcome of the fire marshalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s visit.

A crew of additional employees was in the store last week stocking the backlog of products that have been blocking aisles for months.

Droege announced the fire department will receive four new radios thanks to a $4,000 state grant. He stated the department should receive the radios later this summer.

He also asked the board to approve Steve Newman as a new volunteer to the department. Pending a favorable background check, the council approved his request.

Fallowfield mentioned he is working on a chore list of items heâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;d like to see completed at the town park. They are general maintenance items including painting, fixing swings and mending a few ride-on toys. Fallowfield will discuss the list priority with town employees when he completes his assessment.

The next town council meeting will be held on Wednesday, June 11, at 4:30 p.m. in the town hall.

Egli also took issue with how the public can be informed of pending town projects and asked how they are prioritized. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Who actually sets the criteria for what maintenance is done in the town and who provides oversight for that,â&#x20AC;?

Egli said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Is that something the board does or is that something the individual person or people in the maintenance department decide what does or doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get done, whoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s responsible for that?â&#x20AC;?

Cox responded the town board is responsible for setting the project priorities.

He asked if a project list existed or if it could be posted at the town hall.

Cox said that while they do not have a public list, the board does discuss its projects and the priorities often change depending on the seriousness of the project and the weather. â&#x20AC;&#x153;You can ask us and weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ll tell you what weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re working on,â&#x20AC;? he said.

Egli suggested the list be made public so that residents may see the town goals and projects. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think it would be a positive thing for you guys,â&#x20AC;? he added.

Egli made the point that as far back as a few years ago, the problem on his property

was identified by a former town employee as well as town board members. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What is reasonable to expect from the town board once a problem has been addressed?â&#x20AC;? Egli said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We try to get things taken care of but there are a lot of problems, all over this town that have been ignored for years and years, before we even got on the board,â&#x20AC;? Cox said.

Jason Gee was the sole fulltime employee three years until former board president, Steve Sims, was recently hired full-time to assist him. The two men are clearly stretched thin as they must accomplish routine tasks including mowing or snow removal in addition to handling emergencies that pop up, such as water leaks.

Egli lives on the south side of the park and stated the drainage ditch is not adequate to handle heavy rains. He stated the street has been added to so many times that itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s now at a higher elevation than his property causing it to flood during heavy rains. He requested the ditch be dug out to alleviate the problem. He offered there may be several solutions to resolve the problem and asked the board to give consideration to a possible

solution. He also asked if the town has a legal easement for the storm drain on his property and there isnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t, he wants the drain moved.

Scott verified with Gee that his project is slated for later this month. He said he will gather information regarding Egliâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s questions and have an answer for him by the next board meeting in June. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I know you guys have a low-paying thankless job and I appreciate the time that you guys spending doing what you do,â&#x20AC;? Egli said.

Scott moved on to other business in the meeting and announced the town had received a $40,000 planning grant from the Office of Community and Rural Affairs (OCRA) to study the needs of the townâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s water and wastewater facilities.

The town has contracted with Commonwealth Engineers to complete the study and determine how the town should proceed. The study must be complete before July 2015.

Town Marshall Andrew Porath reminded citizens of the grass clippings ordinance and asked that residents not blow grass clippings into the street.

The next board meeting will be held Tuesday, June 10, at 6 p.m. in the town hall.

‘House Tour’ continued from Page A1 the Woodford’s Robin Hill Home and Garden. This will be the second time the historic home will have been used to raise funds for communitybased organizations.

The home, located at 917 Mill Street in Mount Vernon, was purchased by Rodney Wade back in 2010. The 5500-square-foot home was built in 1832 and has a colorful history. It has had several owners and is said to have been a stop on the Underground Railroad before and during the Civil War. After several owners and several attempts to bring the home back to it’s original glory and condition, Wade was finally successful with the project. In 2011, Wade offered the restored home to Posey County Young Life, which sponsored tours of the home. It was a successful fundraiser for the organization.

The home was then placed on the market but it would take just the right family to appreciate the history and the period décor of the stately real estate. That family came around in 2013.

The Woodford Family moved into the home and combined historical facts with imagination to create the current home, which can be seen inside and out on this year’s house tour. The tour will give other potential buyers an opportunity to see the home in its splendor.

“The home is just beautiful,” Women’s Fund member

Charlotte Thomas said. “For those people who toured the home two or three years ago, they owe it to themselves to see it again and see what the Woodfords have done. They have a deep appreciation for the home’s history and it is evident everywhere you look.”

The home features 38 windows and eight fireplaces and all three floors of the home will be open for this tour.

“Their furnishings and family portraits simply create a family home with magical splendor,” Thomas explained.

Other homes featured during this year’s event include the home of John and Angie Wannemuehler, totally renovated last year by Weinzapfel Custom Homes and Gallagher-Niemeier Interiors. The lovely concept home, located near Western Hills County Club at 31 Park Ridge Drive, has been landscape designed

by Aching Acres.

The first of three other stops on the tour include the garden of Joyce Stevens at 1708 Greenbrier Drive in Country Club Estates. The terraced garden is nestled into the hillside and features rocks, plants, trees, and flowers. Nature by Design created this serene setting where colorful blooms please the eyes from early spring until late fall.

Mike and Michelle Wheaton have also generously allowed the organization to tour their garden. The Wheaton Garden, located at 5490 Lower New Harmony Road,

features a pond accented by both a vegetable garden and an orchard. Wheaton has been gardening since a very early age and treasures tilling the soil, planting the seeds and harvesting the crops. He is continuing a 100-year history of family gardening.

The final stop on this year’s tour features the garden at Farmersville School, cared for by students and faculty together as a project. It is a wonderful example of dedication by individuals of all ages who come together to enjoy nature.

The income received from this annual tour is used to fund grants for women and children each year..

Advance tickets for this year’s tour are on sale now at a reduced rate of $12. The day of the tour, ticket prices will be $15 and will be available only at Riverbend Park in Mount Vernon. Tickets are now available at Sarah’s Harmony Way in New Harmony, Compton’s Flower Patch in Griffin, at J.L. Hirsch in Poseyville, at both the Mount Vernon and Poseyville locations of Guilty Pleasures Flower Shop. In Mount Vernon, tickets are available at Hastings Plants, McKim’s IGA, the Mount Vernon Flower Shop, the office of the Posey County Community Foundation in the Old National Bank Building from 9 a.m. until 1 p.m. weekdays, or from any one of the Women’s Fund of Posey County Board Members.

Wildcat softball team takes Central title in 17-15 finale

By Dave Pearce Saturday was a long but exciting day for the Mount Vernon Wildcat softball team. The luck of the draw found the Wildcats playing all three of their games on Saturday in the Evansville Central Invitational. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The tournament started on Friday and everyone played but us,â&#x20AC;? Coach Dave Bell said of his teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s draw to have three games the same day. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We played at 8 a.m., noon, and then in the championship game at 6 p.m.â&#x20AC;?

The good news is the Wildcats were able to win all three times and take the title at Central, a feat they had never before accomplished. Ironically, the Wildcats were never behind all day long.

But it was anything but easy. The Wildcats would see leads of 11-1 and 17-9 dissipate in Saturday eveningâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s championship game before they were able to pull out a 1715 win and the title. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I think the fact that we were playing our third game of the day caught up with us,â&#x20AC;? Bell said of his troops. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We hit the ball really well. We made a couple of mistakes but it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t so much that we made a lot of mistakes as it was the fact that they woke up and started hitting the ball really well.â&#x20AC;?

Bell said his Wildcats scored in every inning but the seventh, to show consistency on offense. Ironically, Goad got both the win and the save as she came out of the game and Denning was in for relief before Goad came back in late in Please See Champs, Page B4

By Dave Pearce The North Posey Viking baseball team ran their record to 13-9 this week with a pair of all-important Pocket Athletic Conference wins, this week over Pike Central and Forest Park. The lone loss of the week was a 10-9 loss in the middle of the week at Boonville.

But against Pike Central early in the week, the Vikings scored 16 runs on 14 hits to pummel the Pike Central Chargers in a game where pitching and hitting came together for the Vikings. Senior Zack Carl picked up the win.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Zack was on top of his game tonight by slowing down the bats of a good hitting ball club,â&#x20AC;? Viking skipper Darrick Wiggins said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;His mix of pitches and hitting his spots was a fine thing to watch. The Vikings did a good job of preparing for this game from the beginning.â&#x20AC;?

That preparation paid off at the plate, as well, as Derek Lindauer lit it up, going 4-for-4 at the plate, including a home run. Damon Cardin and James Marshall were also perfect at the plate with each batter going 2-for-2. Conner Motz went 2-for-3 for the team while Reed Gertiesen and Bo Cox each went 1-for-2. Dalton Rankin got a hit in his only appearance at the plate.

A little lull in the middle of the week against a non-conference opponent in Boonville cost the Vikings as they fell to the hard-hitting Pioneers by a 10-9 count in a very even contest that took until the twelfth inning to decide.

The Vikings scored their nine runs on 13 hits while Boonville scored 10 runs on 14 hits. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Rain might have caused the Vikings to postpone a couple games this week, and it also may have forced another team to cancel altogether. However, Thursday nightâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s game at Boonville made up for two games as it went into the twelfth inning before a winner was declared,â&#x20AC;? Wiggins said of the extra-inning affair. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Vikings played some of the best baseball they have played all year despite the wet and cold conditions that was in front of them,â&#x20AC;? Wiggins said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They faced a team that can hit the ball and they also know how to put pressure teams. The

Vikings did a fine job of communicating through Boonvilleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s many trick plays.â&#x20AC;?

Boonville got the winning run across on a wild pitch in the twelfth inning.

In a game that saw two senior and two underclassmen get a lot of action, Wiggins liked what he saw on the mound and at the plate.

Collin Woods started the contest and Zack Carl was the first reliever. But with an important conference game waiting in the wings, Wiggins turned to freshman Ethan Morlock and sophomore Austin Graves for late-inning relief.

Carl pitched two innings while the southpaw Graves pitched four-and-a-third innings before giving way to Morlock, who pitched three-and-a-third innings. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I want to stress how well our pitchers did last week,â&#x20AC;? Wiggins said, reflecting on a week of long games. â&#x20AC;&#x153;The entire staff is doing a great job of getting us out of jams.â&#x20AC;?

In the other win of the week, Lindauer again came up big for the Vikings. Besides getting the win on the mound, Lindauer went 2-for-4 at the plate to help his own cause.

Christian Jones came in for relief in the seventh inning to pick up the save.

The Vikings continued to hit the ball well, scoring four runs on nine hits while Lindauer and Jones held Forest Park to only two runs on only four hits. Jones was also a force at the plate, going 4-for-4. Cox, Gerteisen, and Cardin each had a hit against the Rangers.

The Vikings were slated to play at Washington on Monday.

Wildcat golfers are fourth in Big Eight

By Dave Pearce The Mount Vernon Wildcat golf team finished fourth in the Big Eight Conference golf tournament on Saturday, finishing with a total of 355.

Jasper won the event, held at the Boonville Country Club,

placing three players in the 70s and tallying an impressive 310 score. Vincennes and Washington finished second and third, respectively, with scores of 324 and 328. Mount Vernon finished fourth with a 355 while

Boonville and Princeton tied for fifth, each carding a 362.

According to Mount Vernon Coach Doug Blair, the real story of the match for Mount Vernon was the play of senior Adam Boerner.

Mount Vernonâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s golfing future appears to be bright with a pair of freshmen making the five-member squad the competed in the Big Eight on Saturday. Freshman Colin Jackson shot an 87 while, finishing second on the team while junior brother Collin Jackson fired a 90. The other freshman, Joe Albright finished with a 97 while senior Ryan Magruder had a bad day on the course, finishing with a 112. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Jasper is pretty good, as always,â&#x20AC;? Blair determined. â&#x20AC;&#x153;They were the team to beat.

We were hoping that we might be able to slip in there and pressure Vincennes or Washington a little bit but it just didnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t happen for us this year.â&#x20AC;?

Lady Vikings defeat Tell City, Wood, look to tourney

By Dave Pearce The North Posey Vikings have found that the spring season is a time not only to battle other teams, but also to battle the elements.

From rain to wind to cold…the Vikings, like other area teams, have seen just about everything this spring. And thins week, the Vikings saw most of it in just the week.

Early in the week, the Vikings were slated to host Pike Central in an important Pocket Athletic Conference game. The Chargers made the trip, got two early runs, and then the rains came. With the Charges leading 2-0 early, the game was called and has been rescheduled for this week.

Next the Vikings traveled to Jasper for a game they were able to pick up late, due to an opening in the schedule. The Lady Vikings appeared to have things under control as they led 4-2 going into the bottom of the sixth inning. That’s wen the ball bounced Jasper’s way.

“It didn’t seem to matter what we did, things were going their way,” North Posey Coach Gary Gentil said of the Wildcats. “We brought the infield in to try to get the out at the plate and then they had a couple of bloop hits just onto the edge of the grass.”

The end result found the Vikings managing no more offense and the Wildcats picking up seven more runs to take a 9-4 decision.

“It was just weird,” Gentil said of the game and the manner in which it happened. “Coach Wassmer and I were still talking about it during the reserve game. It was just unbelievable how it played out.”

Despite the loss, freshman Ally Brandenstein had a pair of hits as did Taylor Franklin.

Then on Thursday, the Vikings got a pre-

view of the team they will open sectional play against, the Tell City Lady Marksmen.

And although admitting that his team did not have their “A game,” they managed to hang on for the 4-1 PAC win against the Lady Marksmen. Blake Gamblin, Franklin, and Brandenstein again had multiple hit performances.

Then on Friday night, senior night at North Posey, the Lady Vikings took six innings to push across 10 runs to defeat the Lady Trojans of Wood Memorial to claim the 10-0 win. The Vikings were solid at the plate up and down the line-up.

Seniors Kelsey Owen, Hayley Harness, Madison Worman, and Ashley Schorr were honored between the varsity and reserve games.

All three of the Viking’s top hurlers saw action this week as Schorr, Haylee Elderkin, and freshman Hannah Ogg saw action.

While not wanting to tip his hand against the Lady Marksmen in the first game of next week’s sectional, Gentil said he would likely not start Schorr, who started this week and got the win against the Lady Marksmen.

But with the winner of the Mater Dei/South Spencer game waiting in the wings, Gentil knows that he needs fresh arms, should the Vikings be able to advance to a second round game.

The Lady Marksmen have been a nemesis for the Vikings over the years, playing much better in the sectional than they shoed in the regular season games against the Vikings.

Just two or three years ago, a very talented Viking team had run-ruled the Lady Marksmen 16-1 in Poseyville just prior to the sectional. The Lady Marksmen re-

The two sectional favorites will play the first night as Mater Dei’s Ball State signee pitcher will square off against a very good hitting South Spencer team. The winner of that contest will face the winner of the Tell City/North Posey contest.

The Vikings must get through the final week of the regular season with week, making up the contest against Pike Central on Tuesday.

The sectional draw is as follows:

Game 1--Tuesday, May 27 – 6:30 p.m.

EST Mater Dei vs. South Spencer Game 2--Tuesday, May 27 - 8 p.m. EST North Posey vs. Tell City Game 3--Wednesday, May 28 – 6:30 p.m.

EST Winner Game 1 vs. Winner Game 2 Game 4--Wednesday, May 28 - 8 p.m. EST Perry Central vs. Forest Park Game 5--Thursday, May 29 - 7 p.m. EST Winner Game 4 vs. Winner Game 3 All times are Eastern Standard times.

Wildcat track team gains pair of seconds in Big 8

By Steven Kochersperger The Mount Vernon girls’ and boys’ track and field teams took part in the Big Eight Conference championships this week and walked away feeling pretty good about their chances in the upcoming sectionals.

The girls battled through the wet weather and came away second place finishers as did the boys Thursday evening. Both second place finishes pleased the coaches as they now look forward to the sectional in hopes of having several Wildcat athletes competing and advancing in the state tournament.

The girls’ team came to Princeton Tuesday evening and looked like a team on a mission. The ladies of Mount Vernon wanted to do all they could to place themselves in a great position for advancement in the sectional level this coming week. And for three events they team did just that.

Senior Ellen Foster advanced as she continues her great senior campaign in the sport she will continue next year at the college level. Foster won both the high jump and the long jump on Tuesday evening gaining her Big Eight Conference championship status.

Also winning their event in the Big Eight Conference championships Tuesday was Freshman Brooke Green. Green has had a tremendous freshman season for Mount Vernon and she ran away from the field in the 200-meter dash to gain her honors.

The 4x100 relay team has been a very bright spot for Mount Vernon since the team

broke the Mount Vernon High School record last season. The team of Brooke Green, Savannah Bush, Kellen Ray, and Madison Simpson once again put on a show and walked away winners in Princeton earning them conference honors as well.

Altogether the girls’ team ended their night in second place. The girls now head to sectionals this Tuesday in hopes of having a lot more advancement to the regional tournament moving forward.

The boys also competed this week in the conference championships and were happy with the overall result. The boys ended their night in the same fashion as the girls did, in second place, but had four athletes who won their events to become Big Eight Conference champions.

Austin Guthrie continues his great senior year in the 110 hurdles as he stepped on to the track and won that event. Guthrie leaves the Big Eight Conference as a champion and hopes to step it up once more at the sectional this week as well.

Tyler DeKemper won the discus event and is a conference champion in this field event. It has been a while since a Wildcats thrower took this event and DeKemper continues his great season in the event in style.

Junior Charlie Schneider won a great race in the 200-meter dash and teammate Michael Cannato won his sprint in the 400-meter dash to become a conference champion, as well.

Ellen Foster jumps in the high jump in a recent track and field meet. Foster won this event this week in the Big Eight Conference Championships.

Poseyville teams strive to improve, win along the way

Poseyville Black pitcher Brandon Hamman prepares to bring the heat during Black’s Saturday evening win. Photo

by Dave Pearce

By Conner Voegel Baseball is a game of inches. Whether it is a bunt that is fair or foul by an inch, being struck out or called out by an inch, or gripping the ball a certain way to make it move so far, or missing that sweet spot on the bat by a half inch and not getting that always wanted homerun.

People in Posey County know baseball is a game of inches, but they also learned Mother Nature likes the game as well; however Mother Nature plays her game

a totally different way. This week, she showed her power and her game. Mother Nature dumped about five inches of rain on the area, and rain and baseball just do not go together. Even though rain and baseball do not go together, the passion, love, effort, and eagerness do.

The North Posey Babe Ruth teams each were scheduled for three games, but Mother Nature had other plans. North Posey Black ended up getting one game in and North Posey Red two. Both teams’ players were devastated when the rain hit. Red was trying to keep their wins going and Black was still searching for their first. So how did their week turn out?

Red dropped their first game to Merchants on Monday. Red’s second game was the first of the double header on Saturday. They played the next Haubstadt team, Legion. This game they never let go of though.

Wes Voegel started out on the hill for Red, and even with some arm problems at the beginning of the year, he pitched well.

Voegel went four-and-a-third innings giving up just two runs on his starting debut.

Voegel also got the win with his four strikeouts. Hunter Alkire, the young 13-year-old, came in to close the game out. Alkire went two-and-two-thirds innings and gave up no runs or hits. Alkire took the save, and also had four strikeouts.

However, offense was the main topic of this game. Billy Hamilton, the center fielder for the Cincinnati Reds, is arguably the fastest man in baseball, but some may argue that Alec Goetz is just about as fast.

Ok, maybe he is not that fast, but you get the idea. For opposing teams one suggestion would be to not let him get on base because if he does he will take second, most likely third, and if you do not watch out he will sneak into home. Red ended up winning the game 7-3.

Goetz, Glen Alexander, and Jacob Newman all ended up with two hits while Alkire snuck in with one. Voegel, Jordan Goedde, and Jesse Kissel ended up with one RBI

each while Goetz and Alexander had two apiece. Many players got walked or hit, but one man took most of it for his team. Jarrett Motz got hit three times in the back, and even though his teammates had a laugh at it you could see his frustration when he flipped his bat. But after the game he was in a jovial mood too. Red ended up going above .500 changing the record to 2-1.

North Posey Black took the second game of the double-header. They faced off against Merchants, and showed them what they are truly capable of.

“The last two years we have fell short to a very sound Merchants team,” said Black Coach Damien Word. Word and his team did not fall short this year though. Brandon Hamman started on the mound and he did not disappoint. Hamman threw five innings and gave up just two hits, three runs, and accumulated nine strikeouts during his dominating performance for his first win.

AJ Reynolds came in after Hamman and threw two innings giving up one hit and no runs. Reynolds collected the save.

“Luke Gries and Josh Wiggins made some things happen on the base pads,” said Word. Gries and Wiggins are arguably faster than Goetz, but that is a foot race that will have to be decided later. Word also pointed out that Levi Ricketts’ and Grant Parker’s timely hits were deal breakers for the game. There were simply timely hits though: Josiah Ricketts, Corey Heath, Dalton Cox, and Grant Parker ended up with two hits, Josh Wiggins and L. Ricketts ended up with three, and Justin Cummings and AJ Reynolds both ended up with one hit. Black ended up winning the game 6-3 moving to .500 with a record of 1-1. After the game Word concluded saying, “Our pitchers and bench players were are huge part of this win. This win was needed. All in all this was just a great team win.”

Both teams were satisfied with this week.

They wished they could have played more games, but Mother Nature decided not to grant that wish. Both teams, even though it was cold and wet, showed their passion,

Poseyville Black first baseman Grant Parker holds the Merchant’s runner close during Black’s win over the Haubstadt team on Saturday evening. Photo by Dave Pearce love, effort, and eagerness to play America’s pastime.

Black’s schedule for the coming week is May 19 at Haubstadt Legion 7p.m., May 21 at Oakland City at 7p.m., May 24 at Princeton at 5 p.m.

Reds schedule for the coming week is May 19 at home at 7 p,m., May 21 at home, also beginning at 7pm., and May 22 at Ft. Branch at 7 p,m., and again on May 24 at home beginning at 5 p.m.

Lady Vikings score in most events, finish sixth in PAC Special to the News The North Posey girls traveled to Tell City on Tuesday night to compete in the girls Pocket Athletic Conference meet and came away with a very fine performance scoring 70 points to finish in sixth place out of the nine competing conference schools.

Leading the way for the Lady Vikings was senior thrower Marlee Sims who finished eighth in the discus throw.

“Marlee has set a really good example with all of her hard work throughout her career,” said Head Coach Leesa Kuhn. Sims was joined in the scoring column by freshmen Hannah Voegel and Kamryn Brandenstein who finished in third and fifth place, respectively, in the long jump. “The long jump was very competitive,” said Kuhn. “Barely three inches separated third through

fifth places,” she added.

Voegel jumped 14’ 6 3/4” while Brandenstein sailed across the sand at 14’3”.

The 3200-meter relay team of Olivia Goebel, Savannah King, Sarah Watzlavik, and Jade Hatcher got into the act by placing seventh in a time of 11:47.74 seconds. Goebel was returning from an injury and ran well the entire night. The senior distance specialist also finished third in the 3200 and sixth in the 1600.

Senior Emma Werry also had a very good night, finishing second in the 100-meter hurdles and fifth in the 300-meter hurdles.

“Like Olivia, Emma competes at such a high level,” Kuhn said. “I know she was disappointed with her fifth place in the 300 lows, but she expects a lot of herself and it shows when she runs.”

In addition to Werry’s

second in the 100-meter hurdles, Savannah King ran one of the most inspirational performances of the night in the 800. The junior middle distance runner finished second in the twolap event with an excellent time of 2:29.83. In the 200, the Lady Vikings had two runners place. Senior Mackenzie Orlik finished sixth while sophomore Celeste Hill finished third.

Hill was also able to take fifth place in the 100-meter dash.

When asked about one of her senior runners, Coach Kuhn had this to say about Mackenzie Orlik: “Kenzie has also been a leader with her hard work all season.”

Hill and Orlik were joined by Werry and Shelbi Newcomer in the 1600 relay event and the team finished third to take home a white ribbon. Newcomer also continued her return from injury by taking

fourth place in the 400.

The 400-meter relay team of Hill, Orlik, King and Voegel also finished with a fourth place ribbon. Freshman Mia Schmitt also ran the hurdle events for the Lady Vikings along with Sophomore Robyn Bender who competed in the shot put and discus throws.

“We scored in every running event and most field events. I was really proud of the girls and how they competed tonight,” said Coach Kuhn.

The girls are next in action at Mount Vernon on Tuesday, May 20 (today) for the state sectional meet.

Team scores from the PAC meet are as follows: Gibson Southern 131, Tell City 108, Southridge 97, Forest Park 92, Heritage Hills 79, North Posey 70, Pike Central 19, South Spencer 19, and Tecumseh 7.

North Daviess in the opener by a 5-4 count with Haley Goad getting all three wins.

Katie Tucker, Madi Denning, Elaine Thomas, and Goad each finished the opener with a pair of hits as the Wildcats scored their five runs in four different innings. Goad picked up the win.

“North Daviess is very competitive and having a very nice year and we feel very good about being able to win against them,” Bell said.

In the second game, the Wildcats defeated Forest Park. Goad again picked up the win as she got some solid defense and timely hitting, winning 6-2. The Wildcats got on the board early against the Rangers as Tucker scored in the first inning. She singles, stole second, advanced to third on a fly ball and scored on a groundout.

Tucker finished with three hits while Denning had three hits and Goad had a pair of hits.

The decisive inning came in the third when the Wildcats hung a four-spot on the Rangers and they were never able to recover. The Wildcats scored their final run in the next inning.

In the championship game, the Wildcats had hits

‘Champs’ continued from Page B1 the game to finish it.

“The kids kept their heads about them,” Bell said proudly. “We were up 17-9 going into the bottom of the seventh inning.”

At that point, one would figure the win would be academic. That’s where one would be wrong, as North Knox fought their way back and nearly took home the title.

“They had a grand slam and a two-run homer in the bottom of the seventh,” Bell said of the match-up. “They

had the tying run at the plate in their lead-off hitter.”

That’s when Goad took matters into her own hands and struck out the final two hitters to seal the win for the Wildcats and a tournament title that had eluded them in four other appearances.

“We’d like to think that we have turned the corner but we’ve got so many freshman that are still learning what’s going on at this level,” Bell said following Saturday’s big tourney title.

The Wildcats defeated

up and down the line-up as Haylee Ford finished with three hits and four RBIs. Thomas had three hits and three RBIS. Andrea Dick finished with three hits and a pair of RBIs. Ellen Denning had a pair of hits and a pair of RBIs. Madison Denning finished with two hits and an RBI while Jody Fisher had three hits and scored four runs.

Wildcats come full circle, will play Jasper for Big Eight title

By Steven Kochersberger The season is coming full circle for the Mount Vernon Wildcat baseball team. In a season that started with a team trying to find their identity, it looks as though the Wildcats have found out who they are. The Cats won two of their three games this past week beating Central 3-2 at home and Tell City 7-2 before being beaten on the road by Charlestown in late innings to drop the final game of the Charlestown Invitational. But that’s not all what the team is focused on this week. The season and team have come so full circle that this week the Mount Vernon Wildcats will play for a Big Eight Championship against the Jasper Wildcats in Jasper.

This week began, after the cancellations due to weather, with the Wildcats hosting the Central Bears. The Bears are usually a tough opponent for everyone they take on and Thursday night they were just that for the home Wildcats.

Mount Vernon got on the board early with a run and the Bears tied the game at 1-1 in the top of the third inning to answer the early game scoring. But it was in the bottom of the third inning that junior Logan Brown stepped to the plate and ended the tie.

Brown’s run batted in in the third inning broke the game open and the Wildcats were able to plate a pair of runs in the third to go ahead 3-1.

The Bears would score again in the top of the fourth to answer Mount Vernon and only trailed by Brock Sigler slides into second and looks to his coaches a run at 3-2 in that inning. But the Wildcats looked in a recent home game for Mount Vernon. The Wildcats to their pitching as they have done most of this seaare playing great baseball and look to play for a champi- son to close out the opponents and that is just what happened as the home Wildcats closed out the very onship Thursday. Photo by Steve Kochersperger

close game and got the 3-2 victory over the Central Bears Thursday night at home.

Austin Krizan got the win for the Wildcats as he pitched five great innings and allowed only the two Central runs. Krizan allowed only three hits in the contest and a walk as well as striking out two batters in his five innings of work. The Cats gave the ball to senior Bryce Newman who got the save Thursday evening. Newman’s two innings of scoreless baseball helped Mount Vernon secure the victory sending them to the Charlestown Invitational this past weekend on a high note.

It was at the Charlestown Invitational that the Wildcats took the energy from the Central win and came away winners of the opening game. The Cats took on Tell City in that opening game and it was Craig Beeson who was the big name everyone was talking about Saturday in Charlestown. Beeson drove in three big runs as the Wildcats opened the game scoring six of their seven runs in the first three innings of play. The Cats locked the game down once again and walked away winners over Tell City 7-2 sending them to a matchup against the host Pirates of Charlestown.

Charlestown found out early that the Wildcats were not a team to take lightly and the Pirates found themselves in an early hole against Mount Vernon. But some late game heroics saved the home school as Charlestown ended their Saturday and Mount Vernon’s with a 6-5 victory over the Wildcats. Mount Vernon went 1-1 in the Invitational and put themselves in a position to win the whole thing.

Vikings turn in dual meet win, can’t hang with the best of the PAC Special to the News The North Posey Boys Track team had their best meet of the season winning 60 to 49 on Monday night, May 12, in Oakland City.

Although it did start to rain at the end of the school day, the weather cleared just in time to make for a very pleasant evening and a successful night for the Vikings.

Scoring first place for the Vikings were the 3200 relay team of Max Wright, Holt Will, Gabe Mayer, and Mitch Heldt. Also taking home blue ribbons were Jon Alcantara in the 110 high hurdles, Luke Gries in the 100, A.J. Sims in the 400, Shane Martin in the 3200, and the 1600 relay team of Wright, Mayer, Isaac Mayer, and Sims.

Once again, the overall best performance for the night was turned in by Junior throwing specialist Zack Wargel in both the shot put and discus throws. Wargel turned in his personal best discus throw for the season at 126’4” and had a very solid shot put at 40’11”. Also scoring for the cinder Vikings with second place finishes were Ryan Garcia in the 110 high hurdles and 1600 meter run.

“Ryan ran a very good race in the mile and nearly won the event,” said Coach Mike Kuhn. Garcia also turned in a third-place finish in the 300 hurdles. Other red ribbons earned were Alcantara in the 300 hurdles,

Heldt in the 800, and Gries in the 200. Other third place finishers included Isaac Mayer in the 100 and long jump, Jonah Quirk in the 1600, Wright in the 400, Dominic von Buelow, a foreign exchange student from Germany, in the 800, Willy Howard in the 3200, Heldt in the high jump, Ethan Feldhake in the shot put and Dallas Glover in the discus. The boys were hoping to carry this momentum into the PAC meet at Tell City on Thursday night starting at 5:30 pm.

“We have one of the most competitive conferences around,” said asst. track coach Mitch Kuhn. “Right now I would have to say Tell City has the edge with exceptional athletes especially in the sprints.”

Other conference schools vying for the AllConference trophy will be Gibson Southern, Southridge, South Spencer, Pike Central, Tecumseh, Heritage Hills, and Forest Park.

The team traveled to Tell City night for their conference meet and the hosts Marksmen came away with a very impressive win.

“I’m not sure I’ve seen that high of a score before,” said Coach Mike Kuhn. “Tell City has an excellent team with a lot of star tracksters including junior sprinter Elliot Brown and senior hurdler Brennan Malone.”

Brown ran away with the sprinting events winning both the 100 and 200 and was an

Wildcat golfers are fourth in Big 8 meet

By Dave Pearce The Mount Vernon Wildcat golf team finished fourth in the Big Eight Conference golf tournament on Saturday, finishing with a total of 355. Jasper won the event, held at the Boonville Country Club, placing three players in the 70s and tallying an impressive 310 score. Vincennes and Washington finished second and third, respectively, with scores of 324 and 328. Mount Vernon finished fourth with a 355 while Boonville and Princeton tied for fifth, each carding a 362.

According to Mount Vernon Coach Doug Blair, the real story of the match for Mount Vernon was the play of senior Adam Boerner. Boerner shot an 81 and just missed the top seven scores, which would have automatically given him “All Big Eight Conference” status.

Mount Vernon’s golfing future appears to be bright with a pair of freshmen making the five-member squad the competed in the Big Eight on Saturday. Freshman Colin Jackson shot an 87 while, finishing second on the team while junior brother Collin Jackson fired a 90. The other freshman, Joe Albright finished with a 97 while senior Ryan Magruder had a bad day on the course, finishing with a 112.

“Jasper is pretty good, as always,” Blair determined. “They were the team to beat. We were hoping that we might be able to slip in there and pressure Vincennes or Washington a little bit but it just didn’t happen for us this year.”

Boerner’s 81 could just as easily have been all conference material, had he had a little better day putting.

“He finished just one stroke away. The way they do it now is whoever finishes in the top seven earns all conference honors,” Blair explained. “He and a kid from Washington each scored an 81 and 80 was the cut.”

Blair described his senior as probably the best golfer on the team with a good stroke and the ability to drive the ball long off the tee.

“He’s a big strong kid and he really strikes the ball well,” Blair said. “What has gotten him into trouble is his putting. It seems like that three-putt is a nemesis for him. There were two or three times on Saturday that he had the ball in scoring position and got some three-putts. But he has been playing well for us and he has really come a long way.”

Blair said there are some obvious differences between this year’s team and some of the powerhouse Mount Vernon teams of the past. First of all, the make-up of the team features only two seniors and secondly, the team lacks those two or three golfers who can consistently score in the seventies or low eighties.

“To be really competitive with people, we need to get a couple of these guys in the 70s and right now, we just don’t have those one or two guys,” Blair said. “As a matter of fact, in the last tournament we played up at Jasper before the Big Eight, our scores were 88, 88, 89, 90, and 92. That’s how bunched-up we are.”

The IHSAA golf sectional is not held until the first Friday in June so the Wildcats will have time, weather permitting, to get some practice rounds in before they play the sectional at Fendrich Golf Course.

integral part of two of the Marksmen relays.

Malone won both hurdle events finishing well ahead of the field in the 110 high hurdles while stumbling and falling in the 300 hurdles.

“Malone went down hard on the straightaway, but got up and still won the event two seconds faster than the second-place finisher (Thayer Emerson from Forest Park),” said Assistant Coach Mitch Kuhn. “It was an amazing meet for the Marksmen.”

While gushing about the success of the host school and basking in their glory, the Viking boys were making some noise of their own, albeit in less dramatic fashion. Luke Gries once again was the lone North Posey runner to score higher than fifth with his fourth-place finish in the finals of the 200-meter dash. The swift-of-foot freshman has competed well all year in the 200 and he placed second in his heat to earn the right to face the much older Brown, Heritage Hills’ senior Gabe Konerding and Gibson Southern’s sophomore Morgan Rexing who finished 1 – 2 – 3 respectively in the event. Gries also ran a leg of the 400-meter relay team, which finished in the seventh place and also made the finals in the 100-meter dash. In that event he was a distant eighth place, but was the only freshman in the finals.

“Luke is rounding into great running shape,” said Mitch Kuhn. “I’ve really been working with him and all the guys to try to help them improve their performances.”

Joining Gries on that relay team were Cory Kern, Isaac Mayer, and Layne Coleman. Other Vikings to score at the Conference Showcase were Zack Wargel in both the shot put and discus. Wargel was eighth in the shot put and seventh in the discus throw. A.J. Sims finished eighth in the 400 and seventh in the 200.

“A.J. won the right to run in the finals in the 200 but sprinting to the finish line while the two runners ahead of him slowed down because they believed they were already in the finals,” said Coach Mike Kuhn. “Sometimes you sneak in.”

The 1600-meter relay team of Max Wright, Isaac Mayer, Gabe Mayer, and Sims finished seventh for the meet. Senior Mitch Heldt joined the seventh-place club with his performance in the 800. The only other Vikings to score were the members of the 3200-meter relay team which included Heldt, Gabe Mayer, Wright, and Holt Will. Their efforts were good enough for sixth place ribbons.

Also performing in their last conference meet were seniors Jonah Quirk, Shane Martin, and Dallas Glover and Junior Foreign Exchange student, Dominic von Buelow.

The boys’ team is next in action on Thursday, May 22 at Central High School in the Evansville Sectional which is scheduled to begin at 5:30 pm.

The final boys PAC results are as follows: TC 176, GS 93, FP 79 ½, SS 78, HH 77, PC 58 ½, SR 39, NP 21, and T 2.

Memories of the little exist with students from the one who ran into the house other towns that combined to from kindergarten, proudly become one class at the new waving their colored pages, invade one’s mind.

At later graduations, when a lot of people stopped worrying about what they wore, I could not believe my eyes about the attire. Wearing jeans, let alone shorts, used to be unheard of. I don’t know when guys began to think it was just fine to wear ball caps and leave them on at 417 E 3rd St, formal events. It isn’t even unMt Vernon, IN usual any more; I see it done at (812) 838-3546 weddings, funerals, and so on.

any evil it might encounter.

However, like human children, only so much can be done.

Parents of every graduating class have to let those ‘babies’ fly away, also. They can only hope that they will make good choices, and have a wonderful life. Many of the most important things of their lives will be decided when they are still so young. Of course, it is not unusual for adult children to reach to their parents for advice and help in later years, but it is a different type of relationship. As I have mentioned before, I have the tendency to offer advice when it is not asked for. After spending so many years trying to get children ready to get pushed out of the nest safely, it is hard to turn off the instinct to ‘fix’ things for them.

My wish for the members of the Class of 2014, and for your class of 2024, Madeleine, would be for everyone to make good choices. All too soon, you will make that solemn walk into the gym on some warm spring evening in May, and stride off into the future. I advise you to use these ten years wisely, and be ready for this big step.

I can picture it now; and this is how I see that night: your mom and dad will be grinning from ear to ear, and hugging you tightly; Alexander, at 16, will be a little bored, fiddling with whatever hand-held electronic device is then popular; at nearly 12, Issabella will be running around with her friends, making summer plans.

Hopefully, grandpa and I will be sitting there watching, as well as your Powell grandparents. As hard as it is to believe, both your father and Uncle Todd will be in their mid-50s, and Aunt Heather will be 46.

Wasn’t it only a few years ago that we watched them step up on that stage and get their respective diplomas?

Of course, nobody can see ahead for these next ten years, but I really hope that we will all be there to blink back the tears, and see you off into adulthood. I am sure that the parents of the current Seniors are experiencing all of the emotions I have just talked about. Yes, watching the babies poised to fly away is a mixed bag of feelings and memories, but it is their turn.

So, Madeleine, embrace and enjoy these years, and if you feel like clinging to a foyer pole like I did, it is very symbolic of leaving a wonderful era that is ending. The world will be out there, waiting for you. Have a wonderful and happy life.

Here’s to you, Mount Vernon Graduates!

HENDERSON FAMILY INSURANCE

Thomas A. Ruder, Financial Advisor, Edward Jones Another school year is drawing to a close. If you have young children, you might be planning for their summer activities.

But you also might want to look even farther into the future — to the day when your kids say “goodbye” to their local schools and “hello” to their college dormitories. When that day arrives, will you be financially prepared to pay for the high costs of higher education?

Consider this: For the 2013–2014 academic year, the average cost (tuition, fees, room and board) was $18,391 for an

S N O I T A L U T A CONGR Your diploma will take you far, and we wish you all the best as you embark on the future.

Thanks for setting a great example and making us proud.

in-state student at a four-year public college or university, and $40,917 for a private school, according to the College Board.

And these costs may well be considerably higher by the time your children enter college.

Of course, these are just the “sticker” prices; some families pay less, thanks to grants and tax benefits, such as the American Opportunity Tax Credit and the Lifetime Learning Tax Credit.

Still, you may encounter some hefty college bills down the road.

But college is still a good investment in your child’s future.

Over an adult’s working life, an individual with a bachelor’s degree can expect to earn, on average, nearly $1 million more than someone with only a high school diploma, according to the U.S. Census Bureau. So you are saving for a good cause.

Unfortunately, you may not be saving enough — or you might not be making the most of your savings. To save for college, more parents use a general savings account than any other method, according to Sallie Mae’s How America Saves for College 2014 study. These types of accounts carry two significant drawbacks: They typically earn tiny returns and they offer no tax advantages.

However, you do you have some attractive college-funding vehicles available, one of which is a 529 plan. Your 529 plan earnings accumulate tax free, provided they are used for qualified higher education expenses. (529 plan distributions not used for qualified expenses may be subject to federal and state income tax and a 10% IRS penalty.) Furthermore, your 529 plan contributions may be deductible from your state taxes. But 529 plans vary, so be sure to check with your tax advisor regarding deductibility.

A 529 plan offers other benefits, too. For one thing, the lifetime contribution limits for 529 plans are quite generous; while these limits vary by state, some plans allow contributions well in excess of $200,000. And a 529 plan is flexible: If your child decides against college or vocational school, you can transfer the unused funds to another family member, tax and penalty free.

While a 529 plan is a popular choice for college savings, it is not the only option available. You also might want to consider a Coverdell Education Savings Account, which, like a 529 plan, can generate tax-free earnings if the money is used for higher education expenses. You can typically only put in a maximum of $2,000 per year to a Coverdell account, but it does offer more flexibility in investment choices than a 529 plan.

Your children may be young today, but, before you know it, they will be packing their bags for college. So, no matter which college savings vehicles you choose, put them to work soon.

Viking Successes:

Mural in the Rural Jeremiah Galey

Caleb J. Galey Staff Writer The year is winding down here at North Posey and most students are looking forward to summer plans and the next years while the seniors look forward to sumPHU EHIRUH PRVW HQWHU WKHLU Âż UVW VHPHVWHU of college or technical school. Thoughts of warm weather, beaches, oceans, pools, DQG ERQÂż UHV DUH LQGHHG UXQQLQJ UDPSDQW throughout the student body; however, when this monthâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Viking success was about to graduate, he was thinking an entirely different set of thoughts.

When Jeremiah Galey was about to graduate the only thing on his mind was hitting the road and touring with his still popular band Gentlemen and Scholars. The summer after graduation proved very eventful. Leaving shortly after graduation, Galey was determined to make something of the summer.

Several mishaps, one of which included the Ford Econoline they were using to travel the HDVW FRDVW FDWFKLQJ Âż UH in the mountains, could have potentially derailed the band from their ambitious goals. Upon the return home of the band, Jeremiah went straight back to work at his part-time job at the Red Geranium before attending one semester of college at Vincennes University in Vincennes, Indiana.

(YHQ WKRXJK *DOH\ QHYHU Âż QLVKHG FRO lege, he has successfully risen through the ranks of the Red Geranium Enterprises and currently is employed as their executive chef. Galey is responsible for many things at the famous New Harmony restaurant, including making schedules and creating

the dishes that grace the seasonal menus.

Because of Galeyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s success, he has been on quite a few television programs. He has prepared succulent dishes on a St. Louis morning show two times now and each time the anchors love his incredible cooking. Even more recently, Jeremiah was featured on the show Tasting the Tri-State, a show that reports on the best eateries in the area.

Even though Galey has a successful job as a chef, playing guitar and singing in Gentlemen and Scholars is still his passion. The band has quickly become one of the most popular entertainment acts in Evansville. Rocking the stage at venues such as Lamascoâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s on Franklin Street and PG on occasion, the band is a performance worth seeing over and over again.

Jeremiah Galey is still passionate about his band. The clichĂŠd way to end this article would most likely involve calling him â&#x20AC;&#x153;a gentleman and a scholar, a chef and a rock star;â&#x20AC;? however, that ending is not suitable of his stature. Jeremiah Galey is the epitome of hard work, determination, dedication, and talent. Galey often says that everything does not come as easy to him as people might think; although, when he sets his mind to learning something, he puts in the full effort. Many times, Galey will sit at the computer or in front a book on the particular topic and learn as much as he can.

In addition to being a dedicated musician and incredible chef, Jeremiah is also an older brother and many times boasts about how proud he is of his little brother (the last statement may be an exaggeration).

Alie Schroeder Opinion Editor Time has come for North Posey to bring a little creativity into its midst. Many students throughout the years have been chatWLQJ DERXW LW WKLQNLQJ DERXW LW DQG GHÂż nitely not doing anything about it. So when Art Club cleaned the slate and elected new $UW &OXE RIÂż FHUV LQFOXGLQJ 3UHVLGHQW $OLH Schroeder, Vice President Ali Ahrens, Secretary Serena Wilderman, Treasurer Madi Butler, Student Council Representative Miranda Johnson, and Mascot Loreli Golden, they knew this year would be different. Having more than enough Art Club members and next year narrowing it down to only the advanced students, Art Club will have all the talent it needs to start this tremendous project.

Now most of you are probably wondering, what in the world this huge project is. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s aâ&#x20AC;Ś mural! Woot woot! After debating about this for years and seeing that other high schools in Indiana are already muraling it up, North Posey knew it was time to step it up. But now that we are stepping it up, where should we step it up at?

All of the ideas were either impractical or boring until one day a few of the art students were by the auditorium. The Art Club students were all feeling kind of helpless since none of the ideas worked. As they were all chatting about it and few were mentioning what the essence of Band really was and no one really had an answer.

Academy Awards Academic Teams Hannah Bailey Business Manager Walking down the red carpet is something few people get to do, but on May 1st North Poseyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s students got to have their own red carpet moment. The cast of the musical got to share the stage one more time; receiving awards for their performances in their production of The Little Mermaid Jr. such as, Best Supporting Actress/Actor, or the Best â&#x20AC;&#x153;Oopsâ&#x20AC;? moment.

Just like on the real life red carpet, the award winners and cast dressed for the occasion. From the black dresses to WKH IXQN\ RXWÂż WV DOO could be seen! Taylor Wassmer sported a very cute black dress with some lacing on the back and wore some red heels to add a splash of color, the whole look was sophisticated and fun.

Sydney Feldhake wore a fun bright color dress with black polka dots and black heels to match. This gave her a classy look which was perfect for hosting. Lindsay Calvert and Abigail Compton dressed for cups in a t-shirt and jeans with a backwards ball cap, which was a fun look while performing. Afterwards they came back out and Lindsay wore an adorable black dress and Abigail wore a charming long skirted dress that had stripes running across the skirt; everyone else in attendence looked amazing.

The Academy Awards had an assortment of awards for everyone, and here are the results: Best Female Elementary School Member: Kinslee Parrish. Best Male Elementary School Member: Aiden MacMunn. Best Attitude Female: Ellie Herrmann. Best Attitude Male: Aaron Korff. Best Ensemble Member: Ellie Herrmann. Best Crew Member: Sara Neuffer.

Best Technician: Quinn Musgrave. Oops Award: Kalina Carl. Best Male Dancer: Hunter Lehman. Best Female Dancer: Taylor Wassmer. Best Supporting Actress: Taylor Wassmer. Best Supporting Actor: Hunter Lehman. Best Actress: Lindsay Calvert. Best Actor: Aaron Korff. Along with those awards there were two more awards they gave away that night; Outstanding Non-Senior Member International Thespians and Outstanding Senior Member International Thespians. To recieve these awards is a big honor, and two cast members achieved this award!

Outstanding Non-Senior Member International Thespians went to Hunter Lehman and Outstanding Senior Member International Thespians went to Lindsay Calvert.

Congratulations to all who won!

In between the awards, the cast was given a chance to perform a song, dance, or skit. All of the acts were excellent. The Co-Director, Weston Whitehouse, and a friend of his, Stephanie Bolin, did a skit called Stud and Babe which was hilarious!

Weston and Stephanie had dressed up as nerds and the whole skit was about how they were trying to impress each other. Also, Lindsay Calvert and Abigail Compton sang Cups

by Anna Kedrick while performing with red cups, like in the movie, and dressed for the occasion; both had a very good performance. Next, Hunter Lehman performed a dance called In The Mind Of A Soldier which was a moving performance. Finally, Caleb Galey sang I Could Always Eat Your Brain and had the audience join in which was a lot of fun.

Caleb later commented saying the whole thing was fun.

The Academy Awards were hosted by Hunter Lehman and Sydney Feldhake.

They both did a great job and were funny to watch; they had skits in between and made Ellie Herrmann cheer when she won Best Attitude Female. Both did a good job of interacting with the audience and making it fun for all who were involved.

Sydney Feldhake commented saying, â&#x20AC;&#x153;I thought the whole thing went very well and the acts were very cool and interesting, but overall I thought it went pretty good and smooth.â&#x20AC;? I could not have said it better myself Sydney! This was made possible because everyone was in high spirits and ready to see who won what!

The Academy Awards would not have been possible without Ms. Trafton, Weston Whitehouse, and the cast of The Little Mermaid, Jr. who voted on the winners of the awards.

Thank you to everyone who participated!

Alexis Morlock Staff Writer Each year, North Posey academic teams participate in an Academic Super Bowl that is hosted by Purdue University. For each competing year, Purdue chooses a different time period in which students participating research in the U.S. This year, the academic competition was based upon the Westward Expansion. In order to compete, students can be a part of six different subject-related teams which include: Math, English, Social Studies, Science, Fine Arts, or Interdisciplinary Team.

When competing, three members from each team sit at their designated table and work together to answer 25 questions. After 13 questions are asked, members are allowed to switch out if there are more than three memb e r s on the team.

The only person w h o stays at the table has to be the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s captain.

The academic teams competed at Forest Park, Memorial, and Bosse. At the first invitational, which was at Forest Park, the academic teams had the highest overall score enabling them to win the Pocket Athletic Conference meet. The last competition at Bosse was the Area Competition. At Area, the academic teams had to have the highest score in their category out of the entire state to continue on to state. Sadly, with the winnings the team had at area, none of the scores were high enough to send our teams to state, which is located at Purdue University.

One of the academic teams that a student can choose, is the math team that is coached by Mr. Nance. With math, the team members studied many mathematic problems and people that dealt with the Westward Expansion. This yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s members included Aaron Korff, Jonah Qurik, Addison Lange, Samantha Crofts, Aubrey Cummings, and North Poseyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s foreign exchange student Eric Yang. The math team placed first at area.

The second academic team a student can choose is the English academic team that is coached by Mrs. Schmitt. The English team has to read a couple novels that deal with the West and research many techniques used in writings. The team members included Amy Priest, Dora Meyer, Julia Kavanaugh, Ryan Garcia, and Lexie

Fifer. The team also placed first at the area competition.

The third team you can choose is the social studies team that is coached by Mr. Kuhn. This team is in charge of looking up the history within the Westward Expansion time period. The team members included A.J. Sims, Elizabeth Schapker, Sara Neuffer, Jessica Wilkins, Logan Willman, and Zach Goebel. The team place second at the area competition.

The fourth team that is available is the science team that is coached by Mrs. Rogers. The members look up wildlife and diseases that were included within the expansion. The members this year included Jonah Quirk, Terri Alexander, Gabe Mayer, Holt Will, Max Wright, Erin Will, and Brianna Wrobel. This team also placed second at the area competition.

The fifth team you can p a r t i c i p at e in, is the fine arts team that is coached

by Mr. Carnagua. This team looks up the music and artists with the expansion. The members this year included Alexis Morlock, Aubrey Cummings, Jade Hill, Austin Lane, and Lydia Spann. The team placed third at the area competition.

The last team is the interdisciplinary team. This team has no coach because most of the members are chosen to compete on the team from the existing teams. Interdisciplinary is a category that combines all of the academic bowl subjects together. The team members this year were Amy Priest, Jonah Quirk, Aubrey Cummings, Elizabeth Schapker, and A.J. Sims. The team received second at the area competition.

These teams had a very successful year, even though none of them made it to the state competition. Great season teams!

Student Council Cody Ungetheim and Ali Lupfer Awards Banquet Jacob Goedde Editor-in-Chief Student Council is an organization in the school that does so much for our school and our community, and on May 5, 2014, during lunch periods, an Awards Banquet and lunch was held to honor those students involved.

Beginning at about 11, Student Council members made their way to the main gym to enjoy pizza from Hoosierâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Pizza and soft drinks, funded by the Student Council.

Sports Baseball Boys Eli Schapker News Editor The North Posey Baseball team has been hard at work perfecting their game in order to have a successful season. So far, they have had their fair share of successes.

With a record of eleven wins and eight losses, the Vikings only look to improve as the season continues.

The teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s eleven victories were over Bosse, Mount Carmel, Wood Memorial, Tell City, Mount Vernon, Tecumseh, Reitz, Perry Central, Harrison, Central and Princeton. They lost to South Spencer, Mater Dei, Southridge, Heritage Hills, Gibson Southern, Vincennes Lincoln, North, and Floyd Central.

On April 26th, the day of North Poseyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Prom, the team was scheduled to play a round robin at Harrison.

In what was supposed to be the last inning of the game, the Vikings held the Warriors to only one run, ending the inning with a tie 5-5. This meant extra innings and extra time.

With this huge boost, the Vikings went into the second extra inning with high spirits.

Alie Schroeder Opinion Editor For the chaos that occurs at the end RI D VFKRRO \HDU , NQHZ WKLV ÂżQDO DUWLFOH of weird sports in 2014 had to be something to be remembered, something as crazy as your end of the year schedule.

So when the staff of The Northern Lights was spending a hectic ECA schedule in Newspaper we spent some of that time researching weird sports per the usual.

But this time we found something that had me laughing, it is called Extreme Ironing. Now I know over the years weird sports have usually been crazy, in fact my freshman year I remember reading an article by Caleb Dessauer over weird sports.

I thought is was really cool the school even did that, though I cannot remember what the weird sport was I knew it left a memory of how cool the school was for having a paper, it was one of many reasons I joined. So I want this weird sports article to leave a memory for my readers, maybe even encouraging them to save Newspaper. Now without further ado let me describe exactly what Extreme Ironing is, p.s. this is a shout out for all the adrenaline junkies and neat freaks!

Now usually if a husband is addict to adventure but his wife is obsessed with doing house work, they donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t always see eye to eye, but this is one thing they both FDQ GHÂżQLWHO\ ERQG ZLWK ([WUHPH LURQing. This truly fantastic sport is where people take ironing boards to extreme locations whether that be on top of an enormous mountain or under the sea to iron their clothes. I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know about you but I would much rather iron a wrinkled shirt in my laundry room than while sky diving, but thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s just me! But this extreme cleaning duty doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t just stop at mountains, water, or skydiving. Extreme Ironing can be found in forests, on top of large bronze statues, canoeing, skiing, snowboarding, and the middle of a street, the middle of the M1 Motorway, paraFKXWLQJ GXULQJ D NHLULQ UDFH RU ÂżQDOO\ under a lake covered with ice. Well, that is some dedication toward wrinkle free apparel, I must say! But all of this creates

the question where did this all come from.

5HDG WKH QH[W SDUDJUDSK DQG \H VKDOO ÂżQG This will come as a shock but this sport originated from England, who knew right?! But yes England, in Leicester, East Midlands to be correct, by Mr. Phil â&#x20AC;&#x153;The Steamâ&#x20AC;? Shawl in 1997. He got inspired of this idea after coming home from work and instead of doing housework he would rather do some rock climbing, and after mulling his wants and needs around KH ÂżJXUHG ZK\ not iron his shirts on top of a treacherous mountain.

So it took off from there as Shawl told his thrill seeking friends about this house cleaning and danger ridden activity. Yet as exciting as this sport sounds it wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t well liked in that particular area, so in 1999 Steam went on a world tour to promote the sport.

It only took two years for this sport to travel about, I guess he wasnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t pressed for time! Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t get steamed all the way to fabric of your very being at me for being punny, please I cannot help it! We here have freedom of press, the ability of not having to iron our clothes, oh and the ability to write what we want, too! Donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t fold this paper in half and throw it away and please donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t starch and leave! Okay Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m done now, back to the article.

Many of the purists of this sport have branched off into many groups some less thrill seeking and other extremely thrill seeking. A very thrill seeking branch have created the ultimate form of extreme ironing through bungee jumping called bungee ironing. But another branch called Urban Housework is trying to separate into a different extreme cleaning sport centered on vacuum-cleaning. Urban Housework and The Extreme Ironing Bureau are in a very intense rivalry as the EIB want ironing to be the main and only focus. But I think it doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t matter ZKR ZLQV DV ORQJ DV LW D JRRG FOHDQ ÂżJKW Though the rivalry is strong, Extreme Ironing is much more popular, the thrill of having well pressed pants beats all.

So remember folks, if youâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re on top of The Empire State Building sometime and just happen to have a wrinkled shirt give Extreme Ironing a try!

Perhaps the teamâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s best game was against Tell City.

At the time in the season when North Posey played the Marksmen, Tell City was ranked in the top twenty teams in Class 2A in Indiana. Even with the impressive ranking, the Vikings did not back down.

They played the game with great energy and enthusiasm. Their high spirits and ZHOO SOD\HG JDPH SDLG RII 7KH ÂżQDO score was 8-3.

This year, North Posey had a staff FKDQJH LQ WKH EDVHEDOO SURJUDP .HYLQ Smith, former English teacher at North Posey, resigned from the head coaching position. He held the position for two years. Smith left to take the Athletic Director job at Clay City High School.

Smith was replaced by Derek Wiggins.

Wiggins had been the assistant coach under Smith for the past two years. Wiggins has proved himself worthy of the head coaching spot with his respectable record.

Eli Schapker News Editor The North Posey boys track team has battled all throughout the season as they faced great local competition. From the beginning of the season to the present, each team member has practiced to improve his own times or distance. By improving personal bests, each team member could place higher in his event, thus scoring more points. While in some meets the team may not have scored as many points as they would have liked, individuals placed high and improved throughout the season.

One such team member who kept improving as the season progressed was junior Zach Wargel. In most meets, Wargel, a discus and shot-put thrower either set a new personal goal or came very close to it.

North Posey was proud to recognize several seniors at the last home meet on April 10th. Seniors being awarded for their contributions to the team were Nathan Allison, Dallas Glover, Mitch Heldt, Michael Helfert, Shane Martin, Jonah Quirk, A.J. Sims and Manager Ben Blankenberger.

At the Pocket Athletic Conference meet on May 15th at Tell City, North Posey placed eighth out of the nine teams in the conference. The host team Tell City won the meet with an impressively high score of 176 points. Luke Gries was WKH RQO\ 9LNLQJ WR SODFH LQ WKH WRS ÂżYH LQ any event, placing 4th in the 200 meter dash.

Senior of the Month:

Jacob Goedde

Eli Schapker News Editor Although he can have a big head sometimes and loves to brag on all his accomplishments, Jacob Goedde is a fun and interesting student. By being involved in so many organizations in the school, Goedde has made an impact on North Posey. As Editor-In-Chief of The Northern Lights, the staff members decided it was time to learn about the man behind the paper.

What is your full name?

Jacob Thomas Goedde When is your birthday?

June 28, 1995 Do you have any siblings?

One brother, Jordan. He is an eighth grader.

Do you have high expectations for him in high school?

I know that he will do well athletically and academically and I hope that he involves himself in other extra-curricular activities and tries to follow in my footsteps.

Sounds like he has a lot to live up to!

How has being a staff member of The Northern Lights enhanced your high school career?

It has forced me to always be aware of what is going on around the school and what events are going to happen. It helped me keep my eyes open of what other students are involved in as well.

Speaking of being involved, what are you involved in?

I am President of Student Council, the Class of 2014, Spanish Club, and Rock Garden Committee, Editor-in-Chief of The Northern Lights, Vice-President of Art Club, and in Big Brothers Big Sisters.

What has been the most rewarding organization that you have been involved in?

The most rewarding would have to be Student Council and being Class President. I have been able to make friends all over the state of Indiana as well as throughout the school. I have learned a lot about what it takes to work with a team from both a leadership perspective and followerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s perspective. It has helped me realize the type of person I am.

What do you plan to do in life after high school?

I am attending Purdue University and majoring in elementary education. I plan to be a principal of an elementary school.

Why do you want to be an elementary principal?

Because I have always loved working with kids and I want to make a difference in the world, no matter how small.

What are you going to miss most about North Posey?

The people. I hear many people from different schools complain about how their teachers are or how their fellow students are and I realize how lucky I am that I go to a school that doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t have those problems. I have been blessed with amazing teachers and good peers throughout my educational career at the MSD of North Posey. :KR KDV EHHQ \RXU PRVW LQĂ&#x20AC;XHQWLDO teacher in high school?

Every teacher I have had has certain qualities that I would happily utilize in my career as an educator. If I had to pick one it would be Ms. Moore. She always encourages me to go into education when I talk WR KHU DERXW LW 6KH LV DQ H[SHUW LQ KHU ÂżHOG and cares a lot about her students.

What kind of legacy do you want to leave behind?

If I could have one way for people to remember me, I would want them to think of me as a reliable person. That they could come to me at any time for anything.

Do you have any advice for younger classmen?

Get involved early and stay involved for all four years. Whether it be in athletics or any other extra-curricular activities, you can do nothing but learn from your experiences and make good memories along the way.

Is there something about you that the average person doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t know?

Is College Coming Too Soon?

Eli Schapker News Editor High school is an important milestone in every teenagerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life. A person learns many academic, social, and life skills from the time he/she enters as a nervous freshman and leaves a well-rounded senior. High school is the necessary intermediate between elementary school and college. However, it seems that high VFKRRO LV EHFRPLQJ OHVV VLJQLÂż FDQW &RO lege is slowly creeping into high school and putting the focus more on college and careers. The skills needed to learn and successfully navigate life that should be learned in high school are being left out.

College Achievement Program, Advanced Placement classes, and other dual credit courses are college-level classes taught to 15, 16, 17, and 18 year olds and used to earn college credits or to test out of college classes altogether. This allows students to enter college with already earned credits.

Some students have received enough credits to enter college as a sophomore.

The only thing more absurd would be obtaining a college degree by the time a student graduates high school. Surprisingly, this could be the case for students of the Evansville Vandeburgh School Corporation in the upcoming 2014-2015 school year. Incoming freshmen will have the opportunity to sign up for course work that would allow them to earn enough dual credits to graduate with an Associateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Degree. This is disturbing, because it is basically saying high school education is not an important step in a young personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life.

High school is an important time to think over several career options. It is a time for students to take a variety of FODVVHV WR Âż QG RXW ZKDW WKH\ DUH SDVVLRQ ate about and/or what they do not want to do for the rest of their life. Students often job shadow or talk to people in numerous careers to see if that career is what they are interested in pursuing. Most students do not know what they are going to do

after college during high school. Even LI RQH GRHV IHHO FRQÂż GHQW DERXW KLV KHU career path, it is not uncommon for an interest to change in college. Getting an $VVRFLDWHÂśV 'HJUHH LQ D VSHFLÂż F Âż HOG PD\ be a pointless waste of money should a studentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s interestsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; change.

The four years of high school go by faster than most people can believe.

Although there is no doubt that academics are the most important part of high school, extra-curricular activities and enjoying the moment is also a major point of high school. The extra stress of taking enough college level courses to get an Associateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Degree would only take away from enjoying life as a young adult.

Knowing that college credit courses taken in high school will be part of their college transcript and therefore looked at by future employers is a big deal and can cause students to spend hours stressing over the subject. Stress for an Associateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s degree should be saved for college.

High school students should act as high school students and relish life for as long as they can until the real world hits them.

The argument might be made that students can opt out of the Associateâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Degree coursework, but this is unrealistic.

Most students who are capable for this work are used to pushing themselves in the hardest curriculum available and take pride in their work. Students would be pressured by their own pride and possibly by parents and school staff to take the course. It would be best not to offer the option at all.

In short, high school and college should stay two separate schools. High school students should enjoy their four years of youth before the pressure of the real world catches up to them.

School All The Time

Summer break is fast approaching, and students (and hopefully teachers) from all across the country are looking forward to three months of relaxationâ&#x20AC;Śthat is except for those poor unfortunate souls whose schools hold class year-round.

But is year-round school really as bad as people make it out to be? Sure, having school year-round makes for a shorter summer break; however, doing so actually KDV VRPH WDQJLEOH EHQHÂż WV :KHWKHU RU QRW WKHVH EHQHÂż WV PDNH VXFK D GLIIHUHQW

ular breaks as opposed to having one long block of break in the summer. These more periodic breaks could give students more relaxation time during the year, when it is often sorely needed to prevent student burnout. So, year-round school might not be as bad for students as some of them and others might think. %XW IRU DOO RI LWV EHQHÂż WV WR VWXGHQW learning and health, a year-round schedule has a few potential problems that would have to be worked out before it could be fully successful. For example, more frequent breaks might prevent students from getting easily settled in to a regular school

schedule worth executing is up for debate, though.

All students, both current and former, should know what always happens in WKH Âż UVW IHZ ZHHNV RI HYHU\ VFKRRO \HDU teachers review the material from the previous year. Why is such review necessary?

Although it is true that students are able to get back into the swing of things sooner when simply going back over familiar material, the main reason for such review is that students tend to forget a large portion of what they learn in one year over the long summer break before the next year.

But with a year-round school schedule, in which summer break is half as long, material retention rates are higher; thus, implementing such a schedule would help WR LQFUHDVH WKH HIÂż FLHQF\ RI $PHULFDQ schools by allowing teachers to review for a briefer time.

Everyone has their own personal opinion about college. Some say college is super important to peopleâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s lives and others say college is useless.

But, is it really worth the risk of spending thousands just to spend your life in debt?

The song has the same appeal as Party Rock Anthem by LMFAO with the same annoyance as We Canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t Stop

The song is meant to be a satire of sorts about what women talk about when they go into a bathroom together at a nightclub.

The song involves references to drinking, drugs, and sex. The video for the song itself is interesting in sorts due to the cameos of David Hasselhoff and Snoop Dogg
