By Valerie Werkmeister North Posey School Board members voted to make a positive change toward their employees’ good health with their approval of a two-year agreement with TriState Community Clinic on June 11. The board heard many benefits of having a health clinic through a committee that was formed following a major increase in the school’s health insurance.

North Posey School Supt. Todd Camp stated he believes that having a clinic would improve the attendance for the staff, as the amount of time required away from the classroom to see a doctor in Evansville would be reduced. He also hopes it will encourage employees to lead

a healthy lifestyle. They will need to locate a building off site that is easily accessible for all employees.

Camp stated he hopes to have the clinic open three days per week by the end of this year.

Employees who have the school insurance will be able to visit the clinic at no charge, as the MSD of North Posey will be footing the bill.

Board members are working with clinic officials to determine the annual cost, whether a physician or nurse practitioner will staff the clinic and whether employees who do not take part in the school insurance will be required to pay a small co-pay.

Another major announcement came as the board approved the

agreement to transfer the New Harmony school building to the Town of New Harmony.

Superintendent Dr. Todd Camp’s contract was approved through the 2014-2015 school year, with an $1,800 stipend and a $1,000 increase bringing his current salary to $112,500.

The purchase of two new John Deere Z950 mowers with a mulching deck and other apparatus was approved. A list of other equipment will be traded in making the ticket price for both mowers at $9,800.

Sewer problems are plaguing South Terrace Elementary School.

Camp requested permission to move forward with advertising for bids and then awarding the project

Demos golf outing held The Posey County Democrats held their annual Golf Scramble on June 9, 2012 at CountryMark Course beginning at 8 a.m. The winning team this year was comprised of Martin Redman, Greg Redman, Eric Morlock, and Thomas Clowers.

Solstice event set An observance of Summer Stolstice has been planned for Wednesday, June 20, from 8:30 until 9:30 p.m. commemorating Jane Blaffer Owen. The event will consiste of recitation of Universal Peace Prayers and a Labyrinth walk. Everyone is invited.

On Saturday morning (June 16) the Posey County Sheriff’s Department was called to investigate a vehicle crash just north of Mount Vernon on Tile Factory Road. Upon arrival deputies discovered a 2001 Pontiac, operated by Zachary T. Beamon (18) of rural New Harmony, had left the roadway and collided with a tree in the front yard of a residence along Tile Factory Road. The crash occurred just south of the Bellefontaine Road intersection. Emergency rescuers worked for nearly an hour freeing Beamon from the wreckage.

Beamon was transported from the scene by medical helicopter for treatment of injuries sustained in the crash. Responding with the Sheriff’s Department were personnel from the Black Township Fire Department, Mount Vernon Fire Department, Posey County EMS, and the Mount Vernon Police Department.

Nepotism policy to begin, some ‘grandfathered’

By Valerie Werkmeister The Posey County Commissioners are mulling over new policy decisions in regards to their nepotism policy. County attorney, Trent Van Haaften, informed the commissioners about a new state nepotism law that goes into effect July 1. It mandates how counties deal with nepotism and states that individuals will not be able to hire a relative that will be in their direct line of supervision. Current employees are grandfathered into the law, and will not be affected.

The law also outlines the procedure for contract considerations with relatives of the county commissioners and council who have an interest within that company.

Prior to the contract’s acceptance, board members must sign a disclosure statement that has been presented and approved in a public meeting. Those disclosures must be certified and sent to the state.

Van Haaften stated that the commissioners would also need to consider a policy regarding employees who have relatives that become elected officials. Under the new mandate, the employee would be allowed to remain, but the county does have the power to change this if they so choose.

This type of policy is nothing new to the commissioners. They have had a policy in place and listed in the county employee handbook since 2005. The state will penalize any county that does not adopt the newly mandated law by not approving their budget.

The commissioners agreed to review the suggested policy language presented by Van Haaften and adopt it at their next meeting on June 19.

Emergency Management Agency Director, Larry Robb, explained that Posey County has received its certification that it is accredited by the National Weath-

er Service. This rates the county’s preparedness in regards to emergency situations. Robb stated that having programs in place such as the Code Red emergency alert system, having the dispatch center, presenting a storm spotter class and Robb’s attendance in public meetings helped meet the criteria. Posey County is one of 36 counties that has qualified.

Commissioner president, Jim Alsop, read a report on the number of ambulance runs that were dispatched from specific sites. Alsop stated that from January 1 – June 5, there have been a total of 841 ambulance runs.

There were 445 dispatched from Mt. Vernon; 146 from New Harmony; 106 from Poseyville and 144 from St. Philip.

In other business: •the commissioners approved a grant submitted by EMA Director, Larry Robb, for $15,000. This reimburses the county for half of Robb’s annual salary.

•The commissioners signed paperwork to move forward with a grant application for the WadesvilleCenter Township Fire Department expansion project.

•Building Commissioner, Ed Battieger, gave an update on a nuisance complaint at Douglas Buttrum’s property at 9039 Highway 66. The property has been cleaned up since the last meeting. The commissioners gave their approval to half the property removed from their list.

•Chuck Mobley’s animal control report include 47 complaints during the month of May, eight animals were picked up and no animals had to euthanized.

•The highway department was given approval to seek bids to construct a salt building.

The next meeting will be on Tuesday, June 19, at 9 a.m. in the Hovey House in Mount Vernon.

By Valerie Werkmeister If there’s one thing Jim Sheets is passionate about, it’s building a sense of community pride in Cynthiana. The town board member is steadfast in his mission to clean up the town and would like to see community members do their part as well.

Sheets spoke during Cynthiana’s Town Board meeting last Tuesday about little things homeowners can do in taking pride by weed-eating to the curb or cleaning the curb and ensuring grass clippings aren’t left there. One townsperson asked if Cynthiana could plan a festival as other small neighboring communities do. Sheets responded that his first goal is to clean up the town so that people will want to visit.

He also challenged those who have posted signs saying, “Impeach Sheets”, to come and speak to him directly rather than post things of this nature around town.

Sheets also engaged in a somewhat heated discussion with Rick and Tara Davis who reside at 10759 Main Street. The Davis’ have recently acquired a horse and two ponies to aid in sensory therapy for their son who has cerebral palsy and is deaf.

Sheets contends that the animals are not allowed to be within the town limits. However, Tara Davis argued that the horses are kept clean and the barn is not located within town limits.

Both Sheets and Davis stated that they consulted Mindy Bourne of the Posey County Area Plan Commission. According to Davis, Bourne advised her that there is currently no county or city ordinance that states the animals are not allowed to reside on the property. Sheets worries that the animals will become a nuisance for the adjoining neighbors. Davis provided two letters from neighbors who advised that they did not object to the animals residing there.

Sheets stated he would contact Bourne again to discuss the matter and determine the proper course of

Ferguson hoping to make August 1 return

By Steve Joos It’s been a long haul, but North Posey athletic director Virgil Ferguson is getting back to work.

The longtime athletic director underwent a liver transplant on March 16 in Indianapolis and has been coming into the athletic department office in advance of the day when he’ll be released for work on Aug. 1.

“I’m just in here catching up on some paperwork right now,” Ferguson said. “It’s been a long process, but sometimes it feels like a short process at the same time.”

Ferguson’s troubles started over the last year when he started to

become ill and a blood test found him to have a bad liver. After that diagnosis, the liver started deteriorating, with a pattern of illness and recovery, with each illness worsening until he blacked out in January with high levels of ammonia in his blood stream.

That landed Ferguson in the emergency room at Deaconess Hospital in Evansville, where he was placed in the intensive care unit, and then at the Indiana-Purdue Medical Center in Indianapolis, where he was stabilized and placed at the top of the list for a new liver.

He received the new liver on March 16 and has been working on recov-

North Elementary has a new principal. The board approved Camp’s recommendation to hire Theresa Waugaman on a two-year contract. She will receive a salary of $72,000 the first year and it will increase to $74,500 the second year.

Waugaman comes from an administrative position at Longfellow Elementary School in Gary, Ind. She has been working as a Title 1 facilitator, literacy coach and professional development coordinator

ery since then, staying four days in intensive care, then another four days in the regular hospital.

After the period in the regular hospital, Ferguson was given the option of leaving the hospital, but he was not allowed to return to this area since it would be rough on the new liver, so he spent the next eight weeks living in a two-room suite at the Candlewoods Hotel, where he lived with his sister, Pam Burtonshall.

“The suite was $60 a night,” Ferguson said. “The bill was pretty high, but I’ve got good insurance

OPINION

Even ‘perfect’ situation can’t change my holiday attitude Father’s Day is not my favorite holiday. As a matter of fact, I don’t have a favorite holiday. I pretty much dislike all of them about the same. I am the one who always volunteered to work the holidays so those who do enjoy them could have that time off to do whatever it is they do. But I suppose that’s an issue I will TRUTH... have to work through when I get some extra STRANGER time. That could be a while. However, as Fa- THAN ther’s Day approached this year, it gave me FICTION

BY DAVE some time to reflect.

First of all, I almost wasn’t a father at all. PEARCE Beyond 30 and still single, I was looking for the perfect situation. I had decided that stepchildren and dealing with former spouses and four sets of grandparents just wasn’t going to be for me. I realized that my choices were limited and I would have to find the “perfect” situation. I had no idea what that situation would involve but somehow, I think I managed to do it.

For those who know my history, you know that Connie and I met about three years after she had lost her first husband in a tragic automobile accident. Little did I know that my “perfect” situation was about to become reality.

We met through friends at Mount Zion Church. I didn’t go there looking for a wife and I’m sure that Connie, attending a church of 30 to 40 regulars on Sunday morning, wasn’t counting on finding a husband there. But sometimes that’s just how things work. Venus lines up perfectly with Mars, Neptune and Jupiter and bam. Next thing you know things work out.

We didn’t date long until we decided that this was the perfect situation for both of us. And although I can’t describe our marriage as “perfect,” name me someone who can. I went from a 33-year-old bachelor to a husband and a father, all in the same day. As a matter of fact, Connie told me right up front that I was marrying not only her, but also her son and my stepson, Eric.

There have been some rocky times along the way but somehow, with the correct attitude adjustments on both of our parts, we have managed to make it for 23 years. Eric is grown and living near Lexington. We made it through his growing up years without me killing him and without him hating me. It was not always easy as I grew up with stern discipline that often involved physical reminders of what I had done wrong. I had to learn a new way to do things. No, I wasn’t always perfect but we made it. By the way, neither of the other two were perfect either. However, like the old song says, “They’re close enough to perfect for me.”

Besides some of my other issues, I’m not the world’s greatest communicator when it comes to talking about things. Hey, I can sit down with a pad and paper and spill my guts but to sit down and try and tell someone how and why I feel the way I do, I’m just not very good at it. Who knows how many pages of paper and ink have been written that no one except me ever saw. But hey, we all have our own ways of dealing with things. That’s mine.

I would have to describe my relationship with Eric as far better than the average father/son relationship between people who are blood relatives. I believe he has a grip on my personality and I think I have learned to read him very well.

He is not a man of a lot of words and neither am I. Perhaps that puts me in the correct business. Because much like nouns in certain sentences, a lot of our conversations are not vocalized but are “understood.”

For example, when you tell someone “give me the remote for the television,” the subject of the conversation is understood. The unspoken yet clearly understood subject is “You!” “You give me the remote for the television.”

It has been rare that I have told Eric how I have felt about things and it has been equally rare that he has done the same.

Yet, when it comes right down to it, I think the feelings are

“understood.” It often goes without saying the relationship we have. I know it often frustrates his mother because so many times, it is in the make-up of a woman to verbalize everything. With men, I just don’t think it is usually necessary.

If you enjoy being around each other and the desire is there to do things together and you plan another event about as soon as one is over, I don’t think it is always necessary to say “I had a wonderful time and I would like to do this again… say, next Tuesday.” A typical conversation between Eric and I after an enjoyable day on the golf course is “What day do you have off next week?” From that, he draws the conclusion that I have enjoyed the day and if he has too, then he will tell me what days works for the following week. If it hasn’t been that great a day, all he has to say is “Let me get back with you on that.” That’s my cue that either it hasn’t been that great a day or he legitimately has concerns about whether he can be off on the specified day. Either way, I respect his thoughts and no one had to have their feelings hurt.

I have come to the conclusion that it is just a “man” thing.

I have a very similar relationship with my younger brother in Texas. We can go several weeks or even months without talking but when the phone rings, the feelings are “understood” and we pick up right where we left off.”

So Eric, I know it hasn’t been a perfect ride. But since, because of circumstances beyond our control, your mom and I were never able to give you a sibling, You’re stuck. I’m the only dad you are ever going to have. And when you are away in Lexington, I use the “kids” I meet through the newspaper on the athletic playing fields as surrogate children. And even though it is often easier for me to verbalize with them since I don’t have to go home with them, many of our relationships are “understood.”

And, Eric, just in case I didn’t tell you “Happy Father’s Day” and since you didn’t tell me either, the best possible thing happened. You took me out for 18 holes of enjoyable golf. I enjoyed the day and the wish was “understood.”

Throwing down the gauntlet for Posey County food pantries According to Erin Hollinger, director of the Mount Vernon Food Pantry, food orders there have increased by 60 percent this year. Likewise, Cathy Winternheimer reports that 41 percent more families are seeking help from God’s Storehouse, the food pantry located on the St. Peter’s United Church of Christ campus in Wadesville. Fortunately, Mary Beth Gerard reports that New Harmony Food Pantry is keeping up with client demand. At any rate, these organizations provide only a three-day emergency supply of food once a month to those in need. Hunger pangs gnaw at some of our neighbors.

So I’m throwing down the gauntlet at the feet of my readers. I challenge all of you who are financially able to make a monthly do- LIVING nation of $25 FOR THE to the food JOURNEY pantry nearest BY PAM you, whether ROBINSON the Mount Vernon Food Pantry or God’s Storehouse.

My family has made this commitment to the Mount Vernon Food Pantry.

The Posey County News has included a donation form in this issue for our readers’ convenience. Donor names will be listed, unless a request

to the contrary is made, in a follow-up column a couple of weeks from now.

Of course, many possibilities exist for helping out our local food pantries and making a difference in a family’s life in addition to pledging a monthly monetary donation.

A one-time monetary gift is greatly appreciated also.

Like Mount Vernon resident Una Kuhn, we might request gifts of canned foods in lieu of presents for our birthdays. She collected four

Guest Column by State Rep Wendy McNamara Child Care Online, Connecting parents to high quality options Current research shows that from birth to age five, a child’s brain is the most prime for brain development, with over 90 percent of brain growth occurring during this period. This statistic tells us that a child’s environment and the individuals they interact with in those early years have a vital impact on their development.

Recognizing the necessity of wanting to enroll Hoosier children in high quality, early learning atmospheres, the Family and Social Services Administration (FSSA) recently launched a new online tool to help connect parents to high quality childcare options.

Child Care Online is a new free tool that allows parents to compare child care pro-

Gavel Gamut’s Indiana has three general classes of juvenile cases.

If one is under eighteen he or she may come into contact with the court because of abuse or neglect by some adult, usually a parent. If the child has run afoul of a law directed only at children, such as curfew or truancy violations, we call these status offenses. And if persons under eighteen commit acts that would constitute a crime if the children were adults, they fall within the definition of juvenile delinquency.

We call abuse and neglect cases by the acronym CHINS, i.e., Children in Need of Services. These are normally processed by the Department of Family and Children Services. Status offenses are frequently handled informally by the court’s probation department under the auspices of the Prosecuting Attorney’s office. Juvenile delinquency matters usually result in formal court appearances for the child and his or her parents. The Prosecuting

grams, use technology to take virtual tours of facilities, and learn about safety records and other important benchmarks. This new instrument will provide images of teaching and learning areas, food service capabilities, toileting facilities and recreation areas and equipment.

This initiative is being launched in support of Paths to QUALITY, our state’s voluntary quality rating and improvement system for child care programs. All of Indiana’s counties have participating programs. The tool can be accessed by visiting: www.childcareindiana.org.

Finding the right, high quality child care provider can be a challenging task for parents. This new tool will provide access to necessary

and helpful information.

Finally, we are continually looking for ways to better serve Hoosier children, especially the most vulnerable. This summer an interim study committee is charged with reviewing the Department of Child Services’ new reporting hotline for alleged abuse and neglect claims.

All of us want to make sure we have the best possible system in place to protect innocent children from potential harm and we will be reviewing DCS operations to continue to look for ways to improve.

nary inquiries by the probation department.

Although the distinction of cases as juvenile or adult had its formal American appearance in the late 19th Century, we humans have always recognized that different standards of behavior apply to children and adults. It does not take a philosopher or a judge to make such a judgment. As long as one is old enough to have once been a child himself or herself that is all it takes to know there is a difference.

In fact, most of us are aware that it is mere fortune our childhoods turned out as

they did. It is rare indeed that a mature adult attributes his or her good luck exclusively to their own efforts. Rather, most of us spend at least some significant time reflecting on the miracle that life turns out as it does.

This prologue is to begin the discussion of issues of juvenile behavior as framed by law. It is not merely to, “Suffer the little children …”, but instead is to encourage an exchange of views. For example, in a juvenile delinquency case I handled a few years ago involving three boys who had taken a rowboat tied to a stump near the Wabash River, the father of one boy explained juvenile behavior this way: “Judge, you know, when you have one boy you usually have a pretty good boy.

But, if you get two boys together, you have about half a boy. And, if you get three boys, you don’t have any boy at all.”

Having been a boy, I thoroughly understood.

grocery carts full of food at her recent 80th birthday party.

(To learn more about Una, turn to this week’s Good Neighbor feature.) Likewise, we can request canned foods in lieu of anniversary presents.

Erin Hollinger, director of the Mount Vernon Food Pantry, enjoys telling about the success of a Cub Scout group who offered baked goods in exchange for a donation. Lucas Medley and his friends collected several food items plus almost $900 in a matter of five hours, a couple of hours each on two spring mornings.

Local businesses can help in their own special ways also. Recently, the Shrode Agency in Mount Vernon issued a community challenge and matched every two dollar donation with a dollar, up to $1,000. Other companies might consider a similar community-wide challenge.

Or instead of charging admission to events, a business might accept a full bag of non-perishable food items— around 20 items. Businesses can offer discounts or perks to its clientele in exchange for food donations as well.

In this economy, we all need to stick together. Given

Letters to the Editor Retiree expresses gratitude, shares thoughts and memories It has been my privilege to work at the Poseyville Branch of Fifth Third Bank for the past sixteen years.

What an honor to have been able to be of service to my customers in the community in which I was raised. During this time, I have formed many friendships and bonds with my customers and coworkers. I wish to take this time to say thank you to my family, my coworkers, and my customers who all came to share in my retirement party. It was a special day that I will always remember.

Thank you also to the customers who sent well wishes but were unable to attend.

Everyday since my retirement, I have received two or three cards in the mail wishing me a great retirement.

My parents, Clarence and Flora Mae Hopf, were not wealthy but very rich in the love and compassion they gave to others and passed on to their children and grandchildren. Thank you, dear family, for your love and support always.

To my work family, Bruce, Betty, Brenda, Chris, Mickey and Sharon—thank you for all the hard work you put into making my retirement day special. Even though we won’t be together on a daily basis, you will always be in my heart. We have worked hard together and also shared many fun times together. Just like our own families, we have laughed, cried prayed and cared together.

To my customers, please know it has been my plea-

sure to serve your needs during these past sixteen years. Some of you I have know all my life, and many I have come to know over the years. We, too, have laughed, cried, prayed and cared together. When I reflect back over the years, I think about all my customers who have now reaped the rewards of their heavenly home. I have learned something from each of you, and I will miss being of service to you. However, one of the special things about living in this community is that I will see you at church, at the stores, at the restaurants, at the beauty shop, on the street, and at community activities.

Thanks to all and God’s blessing to each of you!!!!

Thank you Relay for Life Committee, Community, Family and Friends I was humbled and honored to receive the 2012 Relay for Life Courage Award.

I am just one (the proverbial needle in a haystack) of numerous others who currently are courageously living every day with this cancer. I feel that all Cancer Survivors & their families are “Courageous Heroes”.

After being diagnosed with Breast Cancer, I received many prayers, calls and cards of support from family, friends and strangers.

As was so eloquently explained to me, when one is diagnosed

with Breast Cancer – you are accepted into a” sisterhood”. It’s not a sisterhood that we wish to increase by numbers, but I was glad that these “sisters” were and are there for support and encouragement. I feel that all cancer survivors are a family – there to support, encourage and share with others.

This is not a “journey” that I chose, but I am so happy that my husband & daughters were there to care for me and continue to remain by my side to support me. We were and continue to be enveloped and

THE POSEY COUNTY NEWS WHERE OBITUARIES ARE STILL FREE!

We’ve been asked…

“What happens if I prefund my funeral and prices go up?”

Just like anything else, funeral prices will increase over time.

However, one of the most compelling reasons to prearrange with our firm is that we offer advance funeral planning options that grow over time to offset inflation.

That’s the kind of assurance you can count on from a family-owned funeral home.

While the Independence Day holiday will surely ignite many spectacular fireworks extravaganzas, the American Red Cross is counting on donors to spark the nation’s blood supply. The Red Cross reminds eligible donors that the need for blood is constant, especially during holiday timeframes – like Independence Day – when eligible donors have even less time in their busy schedules to give.

While all blood types are needed during the summer months, O negative, B negative and A negative blood types are currently in high demand because they potentially can be transfused to patients with Rh positive or Rh negative blood types. Type O negative, the universal blood type, can potentially be transfused to patients with any blood type.

The American Red Cross’

raffle at the Eagles Lodge on July 20 to benefit PC Pound Puppies. If you have anything to donate - a gift basket, or simply some items that can be used to make a basket, please let us know. We would be glad to pick it up.

Peelers - We have peeler cards for sale, which include discounts at various local restaurants and other businesses.

The cards are $10 and you can get your money back just by using one or two of the discount coupons. 100% of the proceeds from the cards we have left will go to the dogs.

Contact Jill at 204-3535.

Holiday Craft Show - It's time to make your reservations for our Holiday Craft and Car Show, to be held on Saturday, November 3, 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the Posey County 4H Fairgrounds. We are looking for vendors, and are planning some new events to take place during the show.

Immunization clinic set for June 27

Featured Animals of The Posey County Humane Society

CRANBERRY GLAZE INGREDIENTS • 1 cup sugar • 1 cup water • 1 12-ounce bag of cranberries, fresh or frozen (no need to defrost) • A pinch of salt • 1 teaspoon orange zest • 1 teaspoon minced ginger • 2 teaspoons apple cider vinegar or white vinegar • 1/8 to 1/4 teaspoon cayenne, to taste MEATBALLS INGREDIENTS • 2 large slices white bread, crusts removed, bread torn into small pieces (approximately one cup, packed, or 2 ounces of bread, can sub 1/2 cup of plain breadcrumbs) • 2 Tbsp milk • A generous 1/4 cup ricotta cheese • 1 egg • 1 1/4 pounds ground turkey • 1 teaspoon kosher salt • 1 1/2 teaspoons dried thyme • 1 scant teaspoon fennel seeds • Flour for dusting (optional) • Vegetable oil DIRECTIONS 1. Make the cranberry glaze by mixing all the glaze ingredients except the cayenne in a small pot. Mix well and simmer until most of the berries have burst, about 15 minutes.

Strain mixture through a fine mesh strainer into a bowl, pressing the cranberry mush against the strainer with the side of a rubber spatula. (Be sure to scrape the outside of the sieve with the spatula.) Add cayenne to taste.

2. While the cranberries are cooking, prepare the meatballs.

In a small bowl, put the torn bread and sprinkle it with the milk. Use a fork to pulverize the bread a bit. In a large bowl, use the same fork to whisk together the ricotta and the egg until smooth. Add the ground turkey, salt, thyme, fennel seeds and milk-sprinkled bread. Gently mix with your (clean) hands until the ingredients are all incorporated. Don’t overwork the meatball mixture or the meatballs will become too dense.

3. Gently roll out small meatballs about an 1 inch wide with the palms of your hands and set them on a baking sheet or large plate.

4. Heat 2 Tbsp vegetable oil in a wide sauté pan on medium heat. Working in batches, add the meatballs, taking care not to crowd the pan, and brown all over. Use a fork to gentle nudge the meatballs, turning them. Note that the meatballs will probably be a bit on the wet side, which may cause some splattering as you cook them in the oil. To reduce that, you may want to sprinkle some flour on the meatballs, or roll them in flour, before they go in the pan. Add more oil to the pan as needed.

5. Once the meatballs are browned and the glaze has been strained, add the glaze to the pan with the meatballs. Let simmer, uncovered, until the glaze reduces a bit and the meatballs cook through, about 5 minutes. Remove the meatballs to a serving dish. Pour over remaining cranberry glaze. If the glaze during this process is too thick, add a little water. If too thin, let simmer a little longer.

Yield: Serves 4.

Photo by Zach Straw. See more of this set on our Facebook page.

Special to the News By: First Baptist Church, New Harmony Members of the Gasburg Baptist Church Youth Group of Mooresville, Ind were in New Harmony on a mission to serve the Lord and the community. The group of 25 teens, let by Pastor Will Burgess, joined members of First Baptist Church of New Harmony to make repairs to the home of a local resident.

Angela Davis, who had recently purchased the home with her late husband, Olin, was overwhelmed to learn that she had been chosen to receive the services which included, repairs to the roof, siding, exterior paint and removal of a dilapidated sun room so she could qualify for homeowner’s insurance. Michael, a youth member, says “It has been very educational and eye opening what we’ve done.” Brook said, “I feel like we’ve changed a woman’s life and it’s helped me find my soul.” The group also spent a day painting the church’s Education Center and tool shed.

The group’s mission was funded by donations from the Gasburg Baptist Church and First Baptist Church of New Harmony. Materials were donated by Jasper Roofing. Mike from Mike’s Lock and Key will be installing new locks all free of charge. When thanked, Pastor Burgess stated “It’s the Lord’s service, and He deserves the credit.”

The group looks forward to returning again July 23 through 29 for Vacation Bible School at First Baptist Church of New Harmony. Everyone is invited to attend. The hours are 6 - 8 p.m. for first through sixth graders, and there are adult classes available as well.

Poseyville residents can expect new stop signs to make streets safer

By Valerie Werkmeister Poseyville is on a mission to make its streets safer.

Poseyville Town Council members are planning to add 16 new stop signs along Fletchall and Sharp Streets now that the first phase of the Safe Routes to School has been completed. Town officials believe Fletchall Street has become a “through” street in which cars avoid Main Street and speed down Fletchall.

Sidewalks constructed along Fletchall and Sharp Streets are meant to encourage children to utilize these routes as they walk to and from school instead of crossing in the congested areas of Main Street.

The intersecting streets where the proposed stop signs will be placed include: Endicott and Fletchall, Church and Fletchall, Locust and Fletchall, Fletchall and Sharp, Oak and Sharp, South and Sharp, Dean and Sharp, and Pine and Sharp. An ordinance will be drafted and council members will vote during their July 11, meeting.

They intend to have the new stop signs in place before the start of school in August.

Jeff Droege of the

Poseyville Fire Department informed council members of the need to update the storm warning siren to be in Federal Communications Commission (FCC) compliance with narrow banding requirements. Council president, Bruce Baker, questioned whether this update should be coordinated with the Posey County Emergency Management Agency (EMA). Droege advised that he would ask EMA Director, Larry Robb. Quotes for the update would be obtained

by J & S Communications in Evansville.

Dry weather may prompt a burn ban. Droege stated that the county fire chiefs would soon be meeting to discuss the matter and determine whether a burn ban would be necessary.

A new state mandate smoking ban prompted plenty of discussion. The new mandate goes into effect July 1, and prohibits smoking in most public places and places of employment. It is also prohibited in state-owned vehicles and school buses. Smoking will also be prohibited within eight feet of a public entrance to a public place. No smoking signs are required

to be posted at the public entrances. Town officials stated they would post the signs in all of the town buildings.

The new law can be found under http://www.in.gov/ legislative/bills/2012/HE/ HE1149.1.html. The Alcohol & Tobacco Commission will be the primary agency who enforces this law. Additionally, the Indiana State Department of Health, Posey County Health Department, the Division of Fire and Building Safety and any law enforcement officer can enforce the law.

Town Marshall Doug Saltzman noted that there has been an increase of ATV or four-wheelers driving in town. He clarified that the town ordinance only allows golf carts to be driven on town streets. ATV’s and fourwheelers are only allowed to be driven on county roads.

The Poseyville Farmer’s Market has moved to a new location. It will now be located at the TDS parking lot instead of the water tower area. They hope to encourage more visitors at the new location. The Farmer’s Market is open every Saturday from 9 a.m. – 1 p.m.

Jared Tepool, a Boy Scout

with Troop 387, delivered a presentation on his proposed Eagle Scout project to council members. Tepool plans to install a handicap acces-

sible ramp at the Poseyville Christian Church. Baker commended Tepool’s efforts and congratulated him on his upcoming Eagle Scout rank.

The next Poseyville Town Council meeting will be held on Wednesday, July 11, at 4:30 p.m. in the Poseyville Community Center.

Historic New Harmony Happenings By Missy Parkinson Later this summer, New Harmony will be the site of the inaugural Summer Forum for Inquiry + Exchange. Thirty-five participants will gather July 21-28 to engage in an extended dialogue centered on the theme “Community, Utopia, and the Individual.”

Summer Forum is being organized by Chicago artist Sara Knox Hunter. As Founder and Director of Summer Forum, Hunter is exploring the creation of spaces for the exploration of culture and ideas. To find out more, visit www.summerforum.org.

Summer Forum will consist of a primary and secondary discussion each day, along with evening programming provided by one of five invited guests. A text or set of texts will be the basis of each discussion.

The dialogue generated

during the week is the focal point of the Forum, empowering the engaged community and legitimating the spontaneous collaborative scholarship created in the space. The strength of the dialogue lies in the disciplinary diversity of the participants along with the concerted move away from specialization and instead toward generalized study.

Evening programming will be determined largely by the invited guests – Linh Dinh, Lucky Dragons, Timothy McCarthy, Marisa Olson, and Randall Szott – with most of it taking place in the Atheneum. These events will be open to the residents of New Harmony and the University of Southern Indiana community. Summer Forum is cosponsored by Historic New Harmony.

How did Hunter decide

on New Harmony as the host space for Summer Forum? A friend told her about a visit made to New Harmony as part of an architecture class with Ben Nicholson at School of the Art Institute of Chicago.

Hunter contacted Historic New Harmony and visited last spring. She was especially drawn to the utopian project of social reformer, Robert Owen. In Hunter’s words, “That community was committed to educational reform, scientific research, philosophy, and art – [New Harmony] seemed like the perfect place to try a similarly minded experiment almost 200 years later.”

Historic New Harmony is a unified program of the University of Southern Indiana and the Indiana State Museum and Historic Sites, www.usi.edu/hnh.

Sermon of the Week: A Church Built on the Rock By: Rick S. Sellers, Pastor Mt. Zion GBC What makes a church? Several years ago a pastor from California wrote a book titled THE PURPOSE DRIVEN CHURCH. Since then, Rick Warren has become a rather common name among active church leaders. In Warren’s book he explains that there are 5 basic purposes for any church. (Read the book for more specific details.)

As Jesus spoke with the disciples He intentionally taught them the purpose for His coming, which was to establish His Church.

This was clearly evident as He spoke to the disciples in the 16th chapter of Matthew.

When Jesus came into the region of Caesarea Philippi, He asked His disciples, saying, "Who do men say that I, the Son of Man, am?" So they said, "Some say John the Baptist, some Elijah, and others Jeremiah or one of the prophets." He said to them, "But who do you say that I am?" Simon Peter answered and said, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God." Jesus answered and said to him, "Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but My Father who is in heaven. And I also say to you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My church, and the gates of Hades shall not prevail against it. And I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven, and whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven." (Matthew 16:13-19 [NKJV]) In today’s society there seems to be a confused understanding of the church. If the church is truly about accomplishing and fulfilling its purpose then each church will be supportive and celebrate the work together in the community.

Churches are never to be in competition with other churches. This is not a game. It is not a race to see who can build their membership roster to fastest. Churches that are true to their biblical purpose know that it is not

about competition but rather it is all about reaching people with the great message about God’s love through Jesus Christ.

True church growth does not occur when new members move from one church to another. True church growth occurs when those within the church reach out to those around them, introducing them to Jesus Christ. At the church where God has placed me to serve I established a practice pretty much at the beginning in dealing with people from other churches. If I know someone is affiliated with another church, or if they are disgruntled, I will love them through Jesus Christ but will not pursue them. Some might think this is an uncaring attitude but I would disagree.

Churches do not grow according to the biblical mandate if all we do is transfer members from one church to another.

The Church must be firmly established upon the Word of God. When Jesus spoke with Peter and the other disciples He wanted to gauge their understanding. Many people had their opinion about who Jesus was but He needed the disciples to know with certainty.

We must know for certain that Jesus Christ is the Son of God who came to point the way to God. The Church must be firmly established on an accurate understanding of who Jesus is.

Jesus said in John 14:6 “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.” There is absolutely no other way. This must be the solid fundamental principal on which the church is established. For anyone to teach any other way to God and heaven is deception, it is a lie!

This explains why I believe that churches are not and cannot be in competition with each other. There is far more at stake than simply living a good life. The church must, if it is to be a part of the Church, reach out and point all people to the love of God through Jesus Christ. Let all competition cease! Let the churches unite under the banner of Jesus Christ and reach our world for Jesus Christ!

Retiring New Harmony teachers honored New Harmony school’s nine recently retired teachers were honored at a dinner at Hacienda restaurant on Tuesday, July 12 hosted

by Carolyn Stone and Becky Smyth. The two long-time retirees of the school gave the nine new members of this Elite Club a magnetic star with a bell on it and a placard proclaiming “You Are A Star at NHS”.

After dinner and conversation about the final days of the school closing, Becky Smyth the official “poet laureate” of New Harmony School read her latest composition.

It was a poem in the form of a letter to the nine who worked “in the land of big blue” and what each would be remembered for at school.

As tears welled up in many an eye, she gently ended with the reminder that “we all now must move on to life’s next endeavor. Our memories of New Harmony School are forever”.

Becky, reknowned for her rock collections, then gave each retiree a rock that reminded her of each person and why to add a little comic relief after the emotional poem. Fast-paced Fifth Grade Teacher Rita Reynolds received a rock shaped like a comma to remind her to pause and slow down and enjoy her retirement. Technology Teacher Sherry Under-

wood’s sailboat-shaped rock reminded her to sail away and relax on her beloved ocean.

Kindergarten teacher Peggy Meyer received a snowflake obsidian rock because she loved her snow days with the children.

Golf enthusiasts Social Studies Teacher Rick Johnson and Third Grade Teacher Lisa Smith both were given rocks with a “hole in one” in them to get luck as they play.

Science Teacher Lois Gray’s rock had a Bigfoot footprint on the back of it and two scary eyes on the front to remind her of the many haunted houses her Science Club put on through the years.

Sixth Grade Teacher Fred Frayser received the “Forever Rappite” blue and white rock as he was a student and teacher at the school.

Both Fourth Grade Teacher Connie Wilson and Special Needs Teacher Dianna Simkins received small perfectly formed “nest egg” rocks to commemorate their long years of service. The rocks will be treasured by all retirees.

As goodbyes were said, all retirees agreed to meet on the first Tuesday of every month starting in September to visit with each other and their “rocks of remembrance”.

Nichole Perry named to University of Charleston Dean’s List Nichole Perry of Poseyville was named to the Spring 2012 Dean's List at the University of Charleston. The Dean's List recognizes full-time students who earn a grade point average of 3.5 or higher.

The University of Charleston is a small, private college with approximately 1,400 students from 31 states and 26 countries.

U.S. News & World Report consistently ranks it among the top regional colleges

in the South, and it is one of The Princeton Review's Best 371 Colleges 2012 Edition. It offers 24 undergraduate majors, master's programs in business and physician assistant studies, and a doctorate in pharmacy.

LISA taught fourth grade, then moved to third At Thanksgiving her class cooked a big bird!

Also some pies and deer meat and bread, While keeping good track of the books that you read.

SHERRY came next to teach business and coach Trained in volleyball’s proper approach.

Typewriters were in then and floppies were new There have been many changes in all that you do.

We control our computers with touch pads and mice Flash drives, memory cards-- they all are so nice.

Our biology lab just fit LOIS GRAY Science became an exciting part of the day.

Your hands-on activities, the critters you kept, Science Fair, clubs, the students you helped.

Mrs. Stone retired, PEGGY MEYER came then.

She came in to work like the Little Red Hen. When something needed done, “I will,” she would say.

BUSINESS Maier is recipient of Baier Youth Spirit Award Maggie Maier, a student at Mount Vernon Senior High School, has been selected as the recipient of the Elizabeth D. Baier Youth Spirit Award for 2012. The Award, in the amount of $500, is given annually to a high school junior who resides in Posey County and who is involved in community activities in Posey County.

The Elizabeth D. Baier Youth Spirit Award was created in September 2007 in honor of Elizabeth D. Baier’s 25th Anniversary as Executive Director of the United Way of Posey County. Michelle Hudson, chairperson of the selection committee, said, Maggie Maier (r) has been selected as the 2012 recipient of the Elizabeth D. Baier “The United Way of Posey Youth Spirit Award. She is congratulated here by Michelle Hudson, chairperson of the County wanted to recognize Elizabeth for her service to award’s selection committee. Photo submitted

the United Way, but we also wanted to honor her for her many years of leadership, community involvement, and volunteer services to Posey County. An award recognizing exemplary volunteerism by young people had been a dream of Elizabeth’s for many years, so the creation of the Youth Spirit Award in her name seemed to be the perfect way to honor her.”

Maggie is the daughter of Paul and Jacquelyn Maier, and is involved in many school, church, and community activities, including student council, Key Club, Big Brothers Big Sisters, and 4H. In her role as class president and student council president, she has encouraged many fellow students to get involved

in school activities. She is a member of National Honor Society and was a 2012 recipient of the Evansville Courier & Press Gold Award. She has volunteered at various charities, such as At the Cross Mission, and at Red Cross events.

In the future, she hopes to go into medicine and continue to help others through volunteering.

The Elizabeth D. Baier Youth Spirit Award will be presented to Maggie at the United Way of Posey County Leadership Giving Recognition Dinner on August 28, 2012. For more information regarding the Award or the United Way’s Leadership Giving Program, please call 838-3637 or email uwposey@sbcglobal.net.

Mount Vernon City, Posey County working to get properties back on tax rolls

By Pam Robinson The Mount Vernon City Council adopted resolution 12-10 at the Monday, June 11, meeting to take assignment of tax sales certificates for six properties: 1100 Canal Street, 831 Mulberry Street, 212 Kimball Street, 404 W. 9th Street, 918 and 920 Mill Street. Thus, the city has accepted the transfer of these properties from county government. The properties have been up for tax sale three times and have not sold.

City Building Commissioner Sherry Willis wants ideally to either find a buyer for the properties or assign them to adjoining neighbors for clean up to get the properties back on the tax rolls – with the understanding the properties will be cleared of all past taxes. City Attorney Beth McFadin Higgins now has 120 days to complete the deed process. If the properties sell, the city will receive payment for all legal costs related to the deed process as well as any weed liens and then will divide the remaining proceeds with the county. Should the properties need to be razed, the city will be reimbursed one-half the cost of demolition.

Council also adopted resolution 12-11 in compliance with the new state law, effective this coming July 1, regarding nepotism. City Attorney Higgins explained that the city may not employ or contract any relatives in the direct line of supervision of another relative.

Relatives are spouse, parent or stepparent, child or stepchild, brother, sister, stepbrother, stepsister, niece or nephew, aunt or uncle, daughter-in-law or son-in-law. A grandfather clause exempts existing employees as of July 1, 2012, from this law.

All elected officers of the city must certify annually in writing, no later than December 31, that they are in compliance with the policy. The State Board of Accounts will not approve budgets for entities failing to adopt the nepotism policy in compliance with the state law.

In addition, council passed two ordinances on second reading. All members present except Councilwoman Becky Higgins voted yes to holding city council meetings every other Thursday in sync with meetings of the Board of Public Works and Safety. Councilman Andy Hoehn was absent from the meeting. Higgins explained she voted no since the night could be long for officials serving both the board of works and city council. If the ordinance passes third and final reading without amendment on Monday, June 25, council will begin meeting every other Thursday on July 12.

A traffic ordinance passed on second reading as well. This ordinance changes the angled parking to parallel parking and eliminates one parking spot west of the courthouse exit drive.

In other business: • When meeting as the Water Utility Board, council members approved a water service request from Bob and Millie Dike at 7251 Sauerkraut Lane. A one-quarter inch tap will be made without boring under the road. Water Superintendent Chuck Gray said that the tapin could be made without any problem. The Dikes will pay the standard fee for the tap-in.

• Mayor John Tucker announced the scheduling of an informative meeting regarding sewer liens: Tuesday, June 19, 4 p.m. at the City Hall Annex.

‘Ferguson hoping to make return’ Continued from Page A1 and they’re helping me out on that. My rehabilitation has been mainly walking and my medicine. I can’t lift anything and I can’t play golf. I can’t lift my upper body until Aug. 1.”

Ferguson credited his sister with helping him throughout the process, adding that she had been there step by step in his surgery and recovery.

“They’re happy with my progress,” Ferguson said. “I’m five weeks ahead of a normal schedule, my blood work’s good and they see no problems.”

Ferguson’s doctors said that he was in good shape prior to the operation, adding that he had a good mental attitude and a good support system.

“I have had people who were looking after me and helping me,” Ferguson explained. “I said I’ve got my sister looking after me, but the doctor said you’ve also got your friends, your fellow (athletic directors) and prayer. Prayer was really the big thing. I really attribute it (the successful transplant and recovery) to prayer.”

He was told by the doctors that there were no guarantees prior to the operation, but he would have been surprised if Ferguson hadn’t survived the surgery and made a full recovery in a short period of time.

The Viking athletic director currently walks 2-3 miles a day (in the morning and afternoon) and he’s lost 115 pounds since first being diagnosed, going from 324 pounds around Christmas to a current weight of 209 pounds.

“For the first time I’ve ever had a doctor tell me I have to put weight on,” Ferguson said. “He wants me at 225 (pounds).”

Ferguson said that he missed his job and is anxious to get back to work, but he will be cutting back on his work load, as much due to his age (60) as the new liver.

Girls’ basketball coach Tracy Stroud, who served as interim athletic director during Ferguson’s absence is being considered for an assistant’s job, although nothing has been made official yet.

Ferguson thanked everyone for their prayers and the students for their get well cards.

“I got numerous get well cards from students and former students,” he said. “It makes you feel good to receive get well cards, but when you receive get well cards from freshmen, sophomores and juniors, it makes you feel wanted. The kids really like me. I don’t know why, because I holler at them, but they like me.”

Ferguson also thanked the Posey County News for its coverage of the Vikings.

‘Cynthiana residents’ Continued from Page A1 action.

Town Marshall Andy Porath informed council members that August 7, has been set for the National Night Out event. The event is centered around bringing law enforcement in contact with the public in a positive way.

Porath is planning on a K-9 demonstration and hopes to have Posey County Prosecutor Travis Clowers in attendance. More information will be provided at the July town board meeting. Posey County Sheriff Greg Oeth and Coroner Jay Price attended last year’s event.

Porath also discussed a few noise complaints that were brought to his atten-

tion. He stated that Cynthiana does not have a noise ordinance at this time. He will look at existing ordinances in other communities to gain insight for the board.

Porath reiterated that the community park closes at 11 p.m. and it is being monitored by local law enforcement to minimize vandalism.

He is also monitoring speeding complaints on North and Evansville Streets.

A few community members asked about driving golf carts in town. The town does not currently have an ordinance, but Porath will look at other community ordinances to obtain ideas.

The town-wide yard sale

will be held on Saturday, July 14.

In other business, the board approved: • a $2,184 quote from Crawford Doors to replace three metal doors at the community center.

• The replacement of tires for the town’s police car. One was replaced after a blow-out. The remaining three were determined to be 10 years old and will be replaced at a cost of $355.

• Jason Gee will seek contractor bids to replace roofs damaged in a recent storm.

JUDGE JAMES AND PEG REDWINE

CAN’T DO THEM JUSTICE

JPEG RANCH

I

PEG

f Circuit Court Judge James Redwine and his wife Peg could be accused of anything, they’d both have some explaining to do about impersonating a Posey County native. No one would guess from their accent or their actions that the Judge and Peg left behind perfectly good home states over three decades ago to settle here. They remain dedicated to the people and prosperity of Posey County.

“This is home,” the Judge, an Oklahoma native, acknowledges. “It’s a great home. There are a lot of good people here.”

A New York state native, Peg nods her head in agreement.

The Judge’s motto might even be, “Doing good for good people.” While serving in the Air Force and upon receiving his honorable discharge, he completed a double major in English and psychology at Indiana University before deciding on a career in law.

“I want to be somewhere I can make a difference,” the Judge told one of his two brothers, whose reasoning won the day. “He told me, ‘Half of the U.S. Presidents are lawyers. Half of the people in the Constitutional Convention were lawyers. If you want to make a difference, go to law school.’ So I went to law school.”

An outspoken advocate for civil and women’s rights, the Judge adds, “Lawyers have helped bring women equal rights and helped bring black civil rights. Many lawyers have also tried to help stop our many wars. We are still at war, but two out of three ain’t bad.”

His career in law started in Evansville in 1970 with the Bamberger firm. Then, he came to Posey County in 1976 as a partner with Tom Rachels, who died in the office of Posey County Prosecutor. The Judge served as Chief Deputy Prosecutor from 1976 through 1978 before becoming Posey County Attorney in 1979 and 1980. Afterward, he served as county court judge from 1981 to 1982. Since 1983, he has served as Circuit Court Judge. The 68-year-old says he has no plans to retire.

Retirement must look questionable for a man who landed his first job at age 10 – either managing a paper route or peeling potatoes in a restaurant. “I can’t remember which one it was,” he admits. “I’d have a hard time not working after 58 years of work.”

Indeed, even in their leisure, the Redwines stay active. The Judge and Peg share a love for snow skiing – and both of them have broken a leg doing it. Peg had a skiing mishap in Utah around 16 years ago that put her in cast while the Judge fell in Colorado just a few weeks back. When they talk about their skiing, however, they remember only the exhilaration of it and recite a litany of ski slopes all over Colorado, Nevada, California and Utah where they’ve landed safely on two feet.

The couple also shares a love for justice. Peg copy set the Judge’s entire historical novel, JUDGE LYNCH”, which the Redwines produced as a 20-minute movie last year. It chronicles the heinous October 1878 murders of seven African American men—four of them lynched on the court house lawn— causing the exodus of African Americans from Posey County in October and November 1878.

The movie has been sent to the prestigious Sundance Film Festival for consideration. This fall, the Redwines will learn about its acceptance there. It was filmed in Posey County—at the Redwines’ now legendary JPeg Ranch, Jerry and Marsha King’s Pioneer Village, the Greathouse Farm, the Courthouse, Robin Hill, the Old Jail and the Prosecuting Attorney’s office.

The volunteer cast and crew brought together over 50 locals for an amazing production.

“We had the most fun of all making the movie,” the Judge declares. Obviously. He took the stage command, “Break a leg!” seriously.

Junior Legion players step up to help Owen Dunn win hadn’t been informed of until right before the game.

Drake McNamara shook off a rough start to get the win, while Ross Canada finished up in relief.

Tuesday, Post Five dug an early hole and couldn’t get out, dropping an 8-5 decision to visiting Carmi.

“We didn’t swing the bat very good those first five innings or so,” McNamara said.

“They (Carmi) had a nice little pitcher (Brodie Brown). Mainly curve balls first, then fast balls and we had trouble adjusting. After seeing him probably the third time, we started hitting the ball on the nose, but it was right at somebody.”

Carmi chipped away at Owen Dunn a little at a time, plating two runs here and there until they had built a 6-0 lead heading into the bottom of the fourth inning. After Brown started tiring in the later innings, Mount Vernon was able to generate a few runs, but it wasn’t enough.

“We had a few hits, but they were right at someone,” McNamara explained. “We just couldn’t catch any breaks.”

Troy Paris came in off the bench to collect a pair of hits, while Ford had two, as did Veeck. Canada also had a hit, but the team was unable to string enough of them together to generate some runs.

The team also struggled defensively, to the tune of four errors.

On Wednesday, Post Five traveled to Newburgh, scored the first two runs of the game and was promptly flattened by Kapperman Post 44 12-2 in seven innings under the 10-run rule.

Newburgh plated six runs in the bottom of the second inning at the Castle High school baseball field and never looked back, pounding out 16 hits and taking advantage of two Mount Vernon errors.

“Our first five guys got hits and then we stopped,” McNamara said. “We weren’t able to get anything else going after that and Newburgh started hitting the ball and taking advantage of our mistakes. They had one big

By Steve Joos The ranks were depleted for the Mount Vernon American Legion baseball team for Thursday’s game at Heritage Hills, so manager Dan McNamara had to bring up a pair of players off the Junior Legion team.

They certainly made good additions.

Logan Brown and Austin Krizan combined for five hits and Brown caught all nine innings of Owen Dunn Post Five’s 13-7 victory at Lincoln City.

How well did things go for the Legion team against Heritage Hills?

“A lot better than (Wednesday, when Mount Vernon was pummeled at Newburgh 12-2 in five innings), that’s for sure,” McNamara said. “We had a number of kids up and down the lineup get hits for us.”

Brown and Bryce Newman each collected three hits, while Krizan had a pair of blows in helping Post Five to its third win of the season.

The win salvaged a week where Post Five started with a tough 8-5 loss at the hands of Carmi and then fell by the 10-run rule at Newburgh.

Owen Dunn loaded the bases over the last seven innings of the game, but didn’t really start cashing in until the last few, McNamara said, despite scoring four runs in the top of the fourth inning to wipe out a 5-2 Heritage Hills lead.

They managed a run in the sixth and two in the seventh for a 9-5 advantage, but couldn’t get much else while Heritage Hills pulled to within a pair in the bottom of the sixth.

“In the eighth inning, we finally got to their bullpen and started scoring some runs,” McNamara said.

A four-run explosion in the eighth put the game out of reach for Heritage Hills.

Bo Harris, Seth Reeves and Trevor Veeck also had two hits each.

Brown and Krizan were added to the senior roster after a number of players had to miss the game due to family commitments or football camp, which McNamara said he

nings, Word felt that his team was able to wear down the Legion hurlers and that helped Black get back into the game.

Jones and Ethan Morlock combined to help pitch Black past Princeton White Wednesday night 16-4, in five innings.

Hostettler and Graves each cleared the bases with doubles, while Morlock tripled with the sacks juiced to give Black nine of its 16 runs.

Marshall and Tyler Wright each had two hits, while Herrmann also singled.

Black knocked out Princeton White’s top two pitchers with an eight run third inning, where Graves, Marshall and Morlock each delivered bases-loaded hits and Black sent 19 batters to the plate.

St. Wendel snapped back from an 11-7 loss at the hands of Owensville Wednesday night to pound Princeton White 14-3 on the road Saturday.

“We played good,” Josh Elpers, shortstop for St. Wendel, said. “We made some mistakes, but we played good. We had solid hitting.”

Derek Lindauer and Jake Wenderoth each had two hits, while Damon Cardin added a clutch single. Lindauer doubled, while Wenderoth smacked a double and a triple.

St. Wendel erupted for four runs in the top of the seventh to go up 7-1 and put the game out of reach.

Elpers said that the team has to win each of its remaining games in order to stay in the hunt for a first-round bye.

Black celebrated Word’s birthday two different ways last week, spraying the coach with silly string after bombarding Owensville 12-2 in five innings under 10-run rule at the North Posey High School baseball field.

“We took care of business tonight,” Word said. “Saturday, (June 9) was just an off day for us, I thought we’d really been playing good ball and I thought we played good ball again tonight, We bunted the ball well, our pitching was really good, Kaynin Capps came in and gave us three good innings out of our bullpen. Everybody contributed tonight.”

Black plated six runs in the first two innings and then hung another four spot on Oakland City after it scored twice in the top of the fourth, and then they closed things out with a pair of runs in the bottom of the fidth.

Other than the top of the fourth inning, Black hurlers threw the ball well, although Graves struggled after a hit and five walks resulted in two runs in the top of the fourth.

But Black got those runs back in the bottom of the fourth on a walk to Jones, a bunt single by Graves, and a single by Marshall.

Dillman tripled and ended the game with a sacrifice fly in the bottom of the fifth inning which scored Graves, who had walked, stolen second and moved to third on an infield hit by Hostettler. Jones smacked a pair of triples, while Marshall and Hostettler each had singles, with Marshall collecting a pair of RBIs. Graves was on base four times, while Andy Herrmann doubled out of the seventh hole in the battling order.

After avenging an early loss to Oakland City with a win at Oakland City, Red battled back from a big early deficit, but didn’t have enough to overtake visiting Fort Branch VFW and lost 17-13.

“I was really pleased with the way we came back,” Voegel said. “In the fourth inning, we went down 14-3, but we came back and put up six in the bottom of the fifth.

We were looking at a run rule, but we put up sixth and extended the game.”

The game ended with the bases loaded and the neat of the Red lineup at the plate.

Mount Vernon, North Posey Junior Legion teams endure split

Mount Vernon’s Brandon Merrick is all smiles as he prepares to give a “high five” to a teammate after scoring during the Mount Vernon team’s game at North Posey this week. The teams played twice this week, with each team taking a win. Photo by Dave Pearce gion squad and North Posey burghs, and that’s a combiBy Steve Joos Summer baseball is summer baseball team were nation of three or four high mainly for developmental looking for something other schools,” Mount Vernon purposes, as the high school than just wins or losses coach Kevin Krizan said. teams work on sharpening when the two teams met for “Our main goal is not so their skills for the future, a home-and-home series last much wins and losses, our goal is to get better and dewhich is one reason why the week.

“We’re going up against velop the players for next coaches of the Mount Vernon Junior American Le- the Pates and the New- year and so I think we’re

doing that.”

There was agreement from the other end of the county.

“We don’t play a lot of games in the summertime,” North Posey coach Kevin Smith added. “The kids have jobs and they have played hard and put so much effort into the season.

They’ve also got basketball, football and all kinds of other extracurricular activities going on, so we don’t try and play a whole lot of games.”

Mount Vernon Junior took the first meeting between the two teams on Wednesday, plating three runs in the bottom of the sixth and then holding on for a 5-4 victory at home and then traveled to Poseyville Friday and dropped a 7-5 decision.

“They played really hard,” Krizan said after his team lost to North Posey Friday night. “They were going up against some older kids and they battled, they competed and I’m happy with that.”

Smith felt that his team had a good approach at the plate, never striking out in 34 plate appearances.

“We put the ball in play and that made a big difference,” Smith said. “I liked the fact that we were aggressive at the plate and I thought our pitching was good.”

The approach at the plate was a plus against a Mount Vernon team that Smith felt was a good squad that was also aggressive at the plate.

“Anytime you’re putting the ball into play at the plate, you’re gaining confidence,” Smith said. “If you have a little slip up in the field or on the mound, you’re confident that you can get back to the plate and make up for it.”

North Posey played with more confidence and aggressiveness, the coach said, adding that he saw a little more bounce in their step.

Mount Vernon scored two

runs in the first two innings, but they also left runners in scoring position, plating just one run while leaving the sack juiced in the top of the first inning. That lack of clutch hitting was one thing the team was going to have to work on, Krizan said.

More offense will help make the pitching and defense look good, he added.

“We played well defensively both nights,” he said.

“We probably got a little better pitching on Wednesday and that was probably the difference between the two games. We competed both tonight and on Wednesday.”

Three runs in the bottom of the first inning put North Posey in front 4-2, but Mount Vernon tied the contest in the top of the fifth.

North Posey pulled away, nonetheless, with a single run in the bottom of the fifth and two more in the sixth.

Wes Harness led off the contest with a double and scored the first run of the night for North Posey, then tying the game at 1-1. Alec Werry doubled, while Jake Bender tripled, and Ryan Gish put the ball in play despite going hitless. The bottom of the order, Austin Little, Joey Deurling and Zach Carl, each did a good job of getting on base, as did Mike Bender.

“Even the outs, they weren’t strikeouts,” Smith said. “In baseball, if you strike out, you can’t score.

We were fighting off some good pitches, we were going after the pitches we wanted and that was the key tonight.”

For Mount Vernon, Brandon Merrick and Austin Krizan each doubled, with Merrick driving in a run with his two-bagger. J.T.

Silvers added an RBI single.

John Tice singled home Logan Brown in the bottom of the sixth Wednesday night to give Mount Vernon the win as the Junior Legion battled back from a 4-2 deficit and this time, came out victorious.

Krizan feels that his team is competing despite a sub.500 record (heading into Monday’s doubleheader with Pate), adding that improvement is the main goal and Mount Vernon seems to be doing that.

North Posey was more aggressive and more confident at the plate Friday, as incoming seniors Harness, Werry, Jake Bender and Kyle Voegel set the tone for Friday’s game, according to Smith.

“Anytime your seniors set that tone, it rubs off on your underclassmen,” Smith added.

With six seniors gone from this year’s team, the North Posey coaches are looking at a number of different players in different positions, while looking at newcomers like Thomas Steagall, who will be coming over from New Harmony this fall.

Smith is pleased with the team’s dedication and work ethic, as well as their dedication to the game and he’s tickled to death to have them on the field, regardless of wins and losses during the summer.

North Posey is now 3-1 in a limited, 10-game schedule. The team is off until June 26, when they have a doubleheader against Gibson Southern, North Posey’s games at Forest Park set for Saturday were cancelled due to a lack of players for both teams.

The Mount Vernon High School cheer squad recently attended a UCA camp held at USI bringing home many awards. The team performed their camp routine in the final competition and won first place and were named “Camp Champs.” They also received a trophy for first place in the cheer competition and second place in the “extreme routine” division. Claire Schroeder was named to the UCA All American Squad. Haylee Birchler and Nicole Hawley both received “Pin it Forward” pins. The squad also received the “Banana” Spirit Award the final evening of camp.

Final Lady Rappite softball team enjoys special night

By Steve Joos New Harmony softball coach Jeff Moore always wanted to treat his team to an overnight stay in New Harmony’s Barn Abbey and since this was the school’s last year, the opportunity was taken over the weekend, starting with a dinner and awards ceremony Saturday.

High school softball wasn’t as successful for Moore’s charges (a 13-28 record in two reasons), but the group which made up most of New Harmony’s last softball team registered a 56-33 mark in seven years together, including a 43-5 Rural Girls record.

“It (the season) wasn’t the way I thought it would be,” Moore said. “The girls tried, we practiced

hard, and these guys are my family. They have been for seven years and it’s going to be tough without them.”

Moore expected a better season in 2012, but the closing of the school, preparing to move on to another school and other things caused a number of distractions that the Lady Rappites couldn’t overcome.

He did say that coaching the Lady Rappites was a dream come true that he won’t forget.

Abby Deckard was the team’s only senior this season. Moore praised her work ethic and her efforts as New Harmony’s second baseman, adding that he wished her well after graduation.

As for the underclassmen,

Moore said three of the team’s better players (Kelsey Owen, Kendall Morris Madison Worman) will move on to play both basketball and softball at North Posey and is hoping that others will try out.

What about the other side of the county?

“Mount Vernon is going to get a nice pitcher in Morgan Matthews,” Moore said. “She’s been our horse all these years. She’s a horse and I’m going to miss her dearly. When we needed someone to pitch, she did it. She never complained, she just went out and did her job and that’s all you can ask from the young lady.”

Moore also said that Andrea Smotherman was going to try out for the Lady Wildcats and he

hoped each of the other six underclassmen on this season’s roster would try out, but he realizes that the competition at larger schools would be tougher.

Matthews was the team’s top pitcher and hitter this season, collecting seven hits in eight at bats at the Lady Rappites’ invitational to clinch the batting crown. Deckard, Owen, Morris, Worman and Matthews each earned letters this season, as did Smotherman, Alyssa Scherzinger, Jordan Lyke, Kaitlyn Newman, Kendall Wilson and Jessica Deckard.

Wilson earned the mental attitude award, while also being named the most improved player (she was fourth on the team in hits) and played a strong left fielder in

the regular season and Sectional.

Each team member received a participation trophy for being on the last Lady Rappite team in school history.

Moore thanked the community for its support over the years in both high school and Rural Girls, adding that the team was respected by the opposition.

He also thanked the Posey County News for its coverage.

Moore is retiring from coaching, but he will be back when North Posey and Mount Vernon square off on the softball field next year, but he aims to remain neutral—sort of.

Moore says he won’t pull for the Lady Vikings or the Lady Wildcats, just the Lady Rappites.

Mount Vernon’s Seifert serves as utility player on all star team record and the semifinals of the Class 3A Boonville Sectional.

“It’s a well deserved honor,” Lady Cats coach Dave Bell said. “She hit .505 for us and did it all.”

Seifert had been offered a scholarship by Wabash Valley College in Mount Carmel, but Bell said she declined that offer and will attend Purdue University this fall.

Speaking of being a utility player, Seifert played three difference positions for the South All-Star team in the Indiana Elite North-South All-Star Game Sunday at Decatur Central High School in Indianapolis, going one for three while seeing action at third base, shortstop and the outfield for the South stars, who lost to the North 8-4.

Alexis Lemon of Washington was the other utility player on the all-area squad.

Class 1A powerhouse Tecumseh landed three selections on the team, along with Coach of the Year Gordon Wood.

WYFX hopes support, number of broadcasts increase The broadcasts have drawn some good response, Delaney said, since they are also streamed on the station’s web site (www. wyfx.com), which enables the grandparents and other player relatives living outside the area to listen in.

Most car radios parked around the North Posey Youth Baseball fields in Poseyville on the day of a recent broadcast were also tuned to the games.

“It’s been a good response,” Delaney said.

“We’ll see if we’ll be back for another year next year.

The economy had a lot to do with things being scaled back this year, because you had a lot of businesses which may have had it in

their budgets to sponsor a team this year, but not necessarily sponsor a broadcast.”

Sponsor response will be a key, he added, hoping that perhaps more of the Evansville west side and Mount Vernon games could be added in 2013. Games had originated from those areas in the past, but once again, the economy hurt efforts to acquire sponsors, while also cutting the number of broadcasts from two a week to one.

Wow Internet Communications and Gaddy Town Restaurant helped out during the year by acting as the primary sponsors for the broadcasts, while several Posey County busi-

nesses have participated in the Poseyville-based broadcasts, including FI First Alert Storm Shelters, Embroidery Direct, Motz Construction and Reynolds Construction.

Mike Skavara handled the play-by-play duties for some of the broadcasts, but Josh Woody (who was on the mic during the Poseyville broadcast) handled the play-by-play duties.

The idea for running youth baseball was suggested to local radio personality Dan Igurski as the school was wrapping up and with daily broadcast of WYFX’s local program, All About Sports, which

focuses mainly on local high school sports.

A guest on the program suggested carrying youth baseball to Igurski and the station picked up on the idea.

They’ve just finished their third year of regular season broadcasts, with some tournament and maybe a fifth season in the works, depending on the economy and sponsor base. Delaney hopes that the station will be able to get back into Evansville and do more Mount Vernon broadcasts in the future, adding that the station had to cut back from Saturday and Sunday broadcasts to just Saturdays this season.

By Steve Joos The economy has hampered things a bit this year, but Mount Vernon’s WYFX-FM ESPN Radio was able to put together a fourth season of youth baseball broadcasts this season.

And they even made it out to Poseyville a few times.

“This year, it’s a little quieter,” station representative Sean Delaney said.

“The economy may have played a part in it, because the sponsorships weren’t there for some of the other cleavages, so this year, we focused on Newburgh and Poseyville, because that’s where the bulk of the sponsors were.”

Brittlebank counts on youngsters to score early, improve

By Steve Joos There were a number of new swimmers who stepped up to help the Brittlebank age-group team win its home opener against Olney Thursday night.

But a number of more experienced swimmers stepped up as well.

The old and the new combined to dunk the visiting Tigersharks 348-209, giving the Mount Vernon Parks and Rec team its first win of the season following a 359-242 loss at Harrisburg Tuesday.

“We swam really well,” Co-coach Nick Loehr said. “We had a lot of best times.”

The Barracudas have a young team this season, Loehr explained, and hopefully they will continue to improve for next season and especially the Illiana Conference meet late next month in McLeansboro.

Loehr said that the Barracudas swam better overall Thursday, citing the experience gained from the first meet and the fact that the Cudas were in their home pool.

Matt Eaton, the other Brittlebank coach, was pleased with the team’s effort, adding that the large number of new swimmers performed well in their first long course meet and the returnees showed improvement, particularly the 13-14-yearold girls.

“They (the 13-14 girls) dropped a lot of time in their butterfly and breaststroke,” Eaton said. “Overall, they swam about the same (at Brittlebank and Harrisburg), but tonight, they swam better since they were in their home pool.”

The team will need to improve in the breaststroke, especially among the younger swimmers, Eaton added.

The new swimmers performed well; according to pool volunteer Amy Hueftle, adding that they were more comfortable in their home pool.

The season got off to a rough start for the Cudas Tuesday with a 359-242 loss at Harrisburg.

As for Harrisburg, Eaton cited the first-meet jitters and the way the meet was seeded, with the faster kids in the side lanes where it was more difficult for them to place as factors in the loss.

Una Kuhn restocks MV Food Pantry with her requested birthday “gifts�

Some folks just know how to throw a party. When Mount Vernon resident Una Kuhn turned 80 on June 8, she wanted to share her birthday loot with her entire community. Kuhn asked her friends to bring canned food for the Mount Vernon Food Pantry as presents.

All told, she collected four grocery carts full of canned food—enough to restock a few shelves at the food pantry. Una sets an example for all of us: we can make a difference.

The Point Township native and her husband Leonard, a Farmersville native, grew

up on farms and learned the value of work early in life.

They both admit they had to get used to retirement.

Una worked with the Kishline family for 43 years.

Her first job after graduating from Mount Vernon High School was at the Kishline Dodge and Plymouth dealership on Third and College when she was 18 years old. Later, she served as the bookkeeper for Ruth Kishline’s Country Clothes in Mount Vernon and beyond in McCutchanville when the store moved with its owner.

A long-time member of Mount Vernon General

Baptist Church, Una enjoys celebrations, like her birthday party, with her friends at the church. At one time, she served as Sunday School secretary and as clerk.

Like his wife, Leonard has spent his lifetime serving his neighbors. His first job with Moll’s Grocery was interrupted when he served his country in the Army. He was in Austria from 1953 until 1955. When he came home, his job at Moll’s was waiting, and he worked there another 11 years. Afterward, he applied his trade as an electrician. Last, he spent 23 ½ years with the

Mount Vernon Fire Department, retiring in 1985. He is a member of St. Matthew parish.

Una and Leonard will celebrate 60 years of marriage on December 20.

They have been blessed with two children, son Michael and daughter Joni Hargett, and six grandchildren. When they aren’t spending time with their kids and grandkids, Una likes to read Amish novels, and Leonard enjoys St. Louis Cardinals baseball. The couple walks together every morning in First United Methodist Church’s Wesley Hall.
