Horse manure is raising a big stink in Cynthiana

By Valerie Werkmeister Members of the Cynthiana Town Council found themselves embroiled in a controversy with a local resident over the legalities of keeping a horse, pony and a goat at her residence. Tara Davis, who resides on Main Street in Cynthiana had appeared with her husband, Rick, at last month’s council meeting regarding a nuisance complaint regarding having the animals within town limits. The Davis’ contended that they contacted both the town hall and Mindy Bourne of the Posey County Area Plan Commission to check if any local ordinances existed prior to the animals’ being brought to the property.

Tara, along with a neighbor friend only identified as Courtney, contended that she was informed there were no ordinances in place concerning having the animals on the property. The Davis’ contend the animals provide therapeutic benefits to help the Davis’ son, who has cerebral palsy and is deaf.

During a meeting on July 10, council members produced ordinance # 1992-11-4, concerning animals that are prohibited within the town. Council president Steve Cox admitted there were a few problems with the filing system at the Town Hall and they were unable to locate the ordinance until recently.

The ordinance states that a horse may only be kept within the town limits if the custodian has a minimum of one-acre of fenced land per horse. Council members contend that the Davis’ property does not meet these criteria and is therefore, in violation of the ordinance.

Tara then argued that she had contacted a lawyer The 2012 Posey County Fair Queen Brooke Brandenstein poses who informed her that because the animals are for with the Posey County Fair Queen of 1962, Sharron (Utley) Trent, at therapeutic uses, the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) would “trump any other ordinance.” this year’s Posey County Fair.

Cynthiana’s attorney, Jeff Ahlers argued that there are no Indiana laws that states therapeutic animals would override those by town ordinance. He also stated that he had spoken with her lawyer earlier that day, who informed Ahlers he had not yet been retained by the Davis’. Tara proceeded to say that she would be retaining his services the following day.

“We’re not trying to pick on her; it was brought to our attention. Someone complained,” council member Jim Sheets clarified.

Tara reminded the council that she had letters of support from her neighbors. However, Sheets called on John Vogt, who stated his back door was within 40 feet of the barn area and the smell from the manure piles was a nuisance.

Ahlers stated the town’s nuisance ordinance would cover the problems with manure piles.

Tara claimed that she removed the manure piles several times a day and also dumped the manure on Courtney’s garden.

Council members still found the Davis’ to be in violation of the ordinance and posed the maximum fine of $50 per day plus attorney’s fees until the matter could be cleared up in court.

“I am sympathetic with your situation, but the law is the law,” Cox stated.

Tara explained how much her son has progressed within the three months the animals have been working with him. She was concerned that if she was forced to get rid of the animals, he would regress.

Ultimately, as cooler heads prevailed, a compromise was reached. Tara agreed to remove the goat and the

By Pam Robinson When Sgt. Kenneth Harker enlisted in the Army back on August 18, 2005, the then 21-year-old Evansville native welcomed the opportunity to add direction and purpose to his life. He didn’t foresee his new career would cost him both legs—a horrific sacrifice to protect the people of his country and their freedom.

“For four months, I was in Afghanistan and got shot,” Harker says. “Then, I was in Iraq six months and got blown up.”

During his deployment to Iraq in June 2008, an Explosively Formed Penetrator, or EFP, cut through his Humvee and traumatically amputated his left leg. Severely injured, his right leg required amputation about a month later also. Then, Harker spent more than three years at Walter Reed Hospital for treatment with surgeries and physical therapies before finally returning to his home in Evansville last fall.

Now his community has the opportunity to support Harker as he strives to regain his own independence in spite of his life-altering injuries. The national organization

North Posey approves New Harmony deal, appoints project manager

By Valerie Werkmeister North Posey School Board members voted to close the deal with the Town of New Harmony on the future of the New Harmony School building during their recent meeting on July 9. School board president Joe Neidig and town council president David Campbell collaborated to create a lease agreement between the two entities. They believe the arrangement will be beneficial to both communities.

The town purchased the building and North Posey will lease the building for a two-year period. In addition, North Posey will pay New Harmony a total of $100,000 by making four, $25,000 installments.

North Posey School District expanded its bases with the addition of Harmony Township marking one of the final actions of adding New Harmony School to its folds. Members of the MSD of North Posey voted to add Harmony Township to District 1 of the three election districts for the board. The district lines will remain in place until a new plan is created.

The board also approved Jim

OPINION

Every story has two sides, even the ‘warm and fuzzy’ ones There are two distinct sides to just about everything. There are two sides to every story and definitely two sides to every good news reporter.

The two sides to every TRUTH... real news reporter are as folTRANGER S lows. The first side wants to T HAN go out and find "feel good" F ICTION stories that make everyone feel warm and fuzzy, includ- BY DAVE PEARCE ing the writer. Sometimes we find those stories and it gives us our "fix" for that type of story.

Then there is the journalistic side which we learned in college and have learned in life. This is the side that makes us a unique group, probably the more realistic side of the two. This side of usknows to believe little of what we hear. We are taught to question everything, particularly all levels of government. Unfortunately with the Internet and folding newspapers, the number of "real live investigative" reporters is shrinking. In my personal opinion, it is just one step closer to our march toward socialism, where the majority of our information comes from government-run programs and programming. Our ability to think for ourselves and "question everything" is lost in the season of "popular belief."

I fell into that "warm, fuzzy" story just this past week. While looking for a positive silver lining to the cloud that hung over the murder of Charlie Simpson and the subsequent early release of Erick Schmitt, his killer. I was looking at only the one side of the story. I was trying to dwell on the posi-

tive of a man who changed his life for the good and is getting a second chance..

But it didn’t take long after the story hit the newsstands that I was shaken back into reality and back into my element, which is to question things.

I had to agree with multiple emails that I received stating that I did not do my job thoroughly. After a quick reality check, I knew they were correct.

First of all, it was pointed out to me that there were multiple victims in this horrendous crime. One writer said it was incredible that the widow of the man who died was able to forgive, there was another person who was also shot during this crime. Why has no one spoken to him? And what about the people who were at the store when the shooting was going on? They had to witness the shooting of a man and his subsequent death as they feared for their own lives. I had to admit, I had gotten wrapped up in the moment.

Another writer indicated "This makes a mockery of our entire legal system. A person shoots two people, killing one, and only 14 years later gets out of prison. One of the other individuals who did not pull a trigger is still in prison. Please explain the justice of this to me. There are people who get caught making drugs for their own consumption who get longer sentences than this man received."

Again, I had gotten caught up in the mo-

ment.

In today's paper, there is a story about a horse in Cynthiana. On the surface, it appears that there is a young person in the town who uses the horse for therapy. It was quoted in the public meeting that these Cynthiana residents were exempt from that town's statutes prohibiting horses from being kept in the town's limits because of the Americans With Disabilities Act. I am still checking on that one but I doubt it.

In my curiosity this week, I drove to Cynthiana to check on the situation myself. One of my reporters covered the meeting. But when I checked back to find out where the home is actually located, I was a little surprised. When I showed up at the home and looked at the grounds and knocked on the door, I was even more surprised.

I sincerely hope the horse is therapy for the young person in question. But how about the multiple other makeshift pens all around the yard housing a multiple variety of animals. I also noticed multiple equines in the pen next door to a prominent Cynthiana business. I was startled by a bolting German Shepherd that, fortunately for me, was penned in one of the pens because otherwise, I would most likely have been attacked.

As I made my way to the rear door of the home, whose lawn appeared to have last been mowed months ago, I heard what sounded like a "herd" of dogs barking at the top of their lungs just inside the back door.

No one came to the door. But despite the circumstances, I will have to admit that I was

surprised that this town, or any town, would allow this type of set-up one-half block from the center of downtown, regardless of the circumstances.

Again, I am aware that there are two sides to every story and as long as we can pursue both sides, we have done our job.

Several months ago, our newspaper began receiving multiple requests to attend the town's meetings to keep people abreast of what is going on in the town. We were happy to oblige. But once we began attending these meetings, it is evident the meetings are not run with anyone's Rules of Order. People refuse to identify themselves, as is required before speaking in a public meeting, and random remarks are made from the audience. While I appreciate the fact that this is a small town and most people know each other, I am of the opinion that more could be accomplished if better order was kept during the meetings. Again, coverage of the meetings involves both sides of the coin.

And, just for the record, anything said in a public meeting IS public record and anyone who speaks during a public meeting is speaking under the protection of the Open Door law. Anything said can be quoted and attributed to the speaker. That's why there are laws in place just for such occasions.

It is exciting to be covering Cynthiana and its efforts to clean up unsightly places in the town. However, it also sheds light on other issues that only a trained reporter would know. We're happy to be in Cynthiana and it looks like we are going to stick around for awhile!

In embarrassing my teenage daughter, I’m just doing my job Recently, a member of my church remarked about the embarrassment I must surely bring my 15-year-old daughter Jessica LIVING when we’re out together at FOR THE an event and I need to photo- JOURNEY graph it. Jessica and I along BY PAM with my sister Shirley hap- ROBINSON pened to be at the St. Matthew Summer Social just a couple of weeks ago when the church member shared her concern. Jessica didn’t say a word in response. On the other hand, I took the comment to heart and echoed the church member’s words, “I guess I do embarrass Jessica.” The thought had never occurred to me until then, and suddenly I was upset about the possible blow to my daughter’s self-esteem.

Of course, as all parents of pre-teens and teens understand, we are doomed to be an embarrassment to our kids. Jessica has never, for example, wanted her dad and me to chaperone one of her school dances.

When we took our turn as chaperones for an 8th grade dance, Jessica did the only reasonable thing: she completely ignored us all evening. That kind of distance is kept also when she’s just hanging with a group of friends. I know better, to cite another example, than to wave even limply at Jessica as she walks toward the car once school is dismissed. Like the rest of the parents, I act cool and greet my kid only after the car door is closed securely behind her. This action pre-

vents my needing to wear a paper bag over my head.

Jessica’s dad has seemed to win the prize, however, for creating the most embarrassment for our daughter. Jessica has usually enjoyed the privilege of rides to and from school throughout junior high and, again, last year during her freshman year of high school.

On occasion, her dad has needed to drop her off or pick her up in the red wheelchair transit vehicle he sometimes drives for the Posey County Council on Aging. Her face turns as red as the vehicle on these occasions.

At least, I thought her dad caused Jessica more embarrassment than I did until the church member pointed how awkward my photo ops are for my daughter. The best I can hope is that Jim and I rank as equals in humiliating Jessica. Perhaps being known as

the daughter of a photojournalist brings no more shame than being caught exiting or entering the hulking wheelchair vehicle.

At any rate, both Jim and I realize we stopped being hip several years ago. Even with my new blue streak in my hair, I can’t turn back the clock. It’s just one way for me to “rage, rage against the dying of the light,” as Dylan Thomas would say. Or it might just reflect my character. Everyone’s heard, after all, of people who can cuss a blue streak.

One thing’s certain: I’m sure, at times, I will embarrass my daughter Jessica. Her shame is another consequence of the generation gap and of a teenager working to establish her independence. In years to come, I hope Jessica learns to stop taking my behavior personally and sees I’ve just been doing my job.

Guest Column by State Rep Wendy McNamara Part 1. New Harmony Bridge Town Hall discussion Input from federal, state and local particpants critical to funding new bridge On Saturday, July 7, I held a town hall to give an update on the New Harmony Bridge situation and to discuss what options were on the table. I want to thank everyone who attended and for your questions and input.

The town hall followed a meeting I had on July 5, with elected representatives from Indiana, Illinois, Posey County, White County and the federal government. We met to discuss what can be done to reopen or build a new bridge.

At the meeting, the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) announced their offer to contribute $10 million towards a new bridge after months of meetings between myself and the department.

For those who were unable to attend the town hall meeting, I wanted to share the discussion that took place and what options exist so that our community can make an informed decision about how to proceed.

Is the current New Harmony Bridge sal-

Gavel Gamut’s ‘C.H.I.N.S.’ The Posey County Department of Family and Children is part of the state wide GAVEL agency that GAMUT is charged with assist- BY JUDGE ing Posey JIM REDWINE County residents whose health and safety may be endangered.

Susan Blackburn is the director of the department and Attorney Daniel Jankowski represents the department in court. Staff members Margaret Angel, Elizabeth Bryant, Carrie Garrison, Ashley Arnett and Jennifer Dagg, also, work with families and often appear in court.

There are many situations that may require the DFC to intervene in a family’s lives, but in the main it is the legal system’s concern with the welfare of children that calls for action, either formal or informal.

Informal intervention is subject to court approval, but does not involve an appearance in court and usually means the DFC offers advice, services and oversight for a short period. Normally children remain in their home if the circumstances do not involve any ongoing possible danger to a child’s

health, safety or welfare.

If a formal proceeding is called for by the facts of a particular case, DFC does an investigation denoted as a Preliminary Inquiry and files it with the Circuit Court. Along with the Preliminary Inquiry DFC must file a request that the judge determine if there is probable cause to believe the child or children are in a home environment dangerous to their safety and well being.

The judge must, also, make specific findings on the record that DFC made reasonable efforts, if possible, to maintain the children in the home or to place them with a relative if they must be removed. The judge’s order must set out whether the situation requires DFC’s intervention and whether it would have been unreasonable for DFC to not intervene as lack of intervention would have been contrary to the health, safety and welfare of the children and contrary to the best interest of the children and society.

If the judge authorizes the filing of a verified petition

by DFC, the parents must be afforded legal counsel and have the opportunity for a speedy hearing at which they and their lawyer may confront and cross examine any accusers and use the subpoena power of the court to order witnesses and evidence into court if they choose. The parents have no burden of proof. DFC must prove its allegations.

vageable?

Based on the most recent engineering report, the answer is no. The April 2012 report stated that the bridge currently cannot sustain its own weight, much less vehicular traffic due to years of use. For a full copy of the engineering report, please visit my website at: www.in.gov/h76 .

The current bridge is too narrow and the pitch of the bridge does not meet federal standards. Our community needs a longterm solution for economic development and transportation purposes. Rehabbing the current bridge is a short-term Band-Aid that will cost significant money with no guarantee that we won’t be back here in five or ten years.

For all of these reasons, I am convinced that salvaging the current bridge is not the best stewardship of your taxpayer dollars.

If a new bridge is built, how much would it cost?

Building a new bridge to meet federal safety and transportation standards would cost approximately $20-25 million. That does not include any of the costs associated with environmental studies, engineering and consultants fees and possible land acquisition costs.

Where would the funding come from for a new bridge?

The funding could come from a multitude of sources but five main stakeholders are involved. As a State Representative, I have worked to get the Indiana Department of Transportation involved and they have agreed to put $10 million toward the cost of building a new bridge. The other stakeholders are the State of Illinois, White County in Illinois, Posey County and the federal government. Once I have an update from my counterpart, State Representative David Reis of White County, about what Illinois is prepared to offer, if anything, I will pass that information along.

Since the bridge is currently privately owned by the White County Bridge Commission, it is not eligible for any federal funds. However, if a new bridge is built it will be eligible for federal funds as long as it is owned and operated by a public entity-for example, one or both counties. Obtaining federal funding is key in getting a new bridge built.

I will continue to detail questions asked during the town hall in next week’s column.

Stay tuned…

Special Vet, from Page 1A Homes For Our Troops is sponsoring the first home build in Indiana for Harker, his wife Heather and their 6-month-old daughter Kenslee.

The family needs volunteers to help out in the Build Brigade scheduled this coming weekend, July 20, 21 and 22 at 11400 Savannah Court, near Busler’s here in Posey County. A sign there reads “Future Home of Sgt. Kenneth Harker” to mark the spot.

The Build Brigade will get the house under roof and weatherproofed to prepare the way for Evansville contractor Michael Conti to complete construction.

Local build coordinator Karen Maxey insists volunteers, especially such skilled tradesmen as carpenters, roofers and blockers, are welcome right up to this weekend, the weekend of the build.

Meals have been donated for volunteers, but ice and drinks (such as Gatorade, lemonade and tea) are still needed. Snacks may also be dropped off at the build site. Any leftover food will be taken to a local shelter, so nothing will be wasted.

Monetary contributions to Homes For Our Troops will pay forward the gift of a new home to more qualifying military veterans with a spinal cord injury or amputation sustained while serving their country. So far, the organization has built homes across the nation for 100 veterans with these injuries. The website provides a wealth of information: www.homesforourtroops.org.

ADA compliant, the new home for Sgt. Harker will allow him to move about much more freely and thus regain his independence. Right now, he must, for example, scoot from his wheelchair to a computer chair just to squeeze through the tight doorway

into his bathroom. In addition, he cannot reach items in overhead kitchen cabinets. Worst of all, he cannot visit his daughter Kenslee in her nursery since the hallways are too narrow for his wheelchair.

“I think it’s important for people to understand, as far as Kenneth being wounded, your home isn’t the same anymore—a place of comfort and security,” stresses Harker’s wife Heather.

Their new home will provide overhead cabinets within arm’s reach and equipped with pull down shelves for storage. Doorways and hallways will be wide enough to accommodate Harker’s wheelchair.

The location of their new home pleases the couple also. Harker appreciates the wooded country setting with enough open space for riding his four-wheeler. He and Heather both look forward to the privacy as he adjusts to a different lifestyle, including living as a civilian.

“I am grateful to this community. I wouldn’t be able to do this build on my own, that’s for sure,” Harker says.

“The community has embraced him and is stepping up to help out in any way they can,” Harker’s wife Heather adds. “We feel very blessed to be from such a tight-knit, appreciative and supportive community.”

The Harkers will leave from the parking lot at the University of Southern Indiana at 7:30 a.m. with an escort to the build site on Friday, July 20, to get things underway. Maxey invites groups to bring up the rear of the escort and individuals to hold up signs of support along the way on Highway 62 West.

Once the Harkers arrive at the build site Friday morning, an opening ceremony will kick-off

Joseph E. Seibert, age 84, of Poseyville, passed away Wednesday, July 11, 2012, at the VNA Plus Charlier Hospice Center of Evansville surrounded by his family.

Joe was preceded in death by his parents Aloysius C. and Lorine (Baehl) Seibert.

Funeral services were held at 10 a.m. Saturday, July 14, 2012, at St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church in Poseyville, Indiana with Rev. Ed Schnur officiating. Burial will follow in the church cemetery where military rites will be conducted.

Friends visited with the family from 2 until 8 p.m., Friday July 13, 2012 with the Rosary at 2 p.m. Visitation continued from 9 until 9:45 a.m. Saturday at Werry Funeral Home, Poseyville Chapel, 16 East Fletchall Avenue, Poseyville, Indiana.

Memorial contributions may be made to St. Francis Xavier Catholic Church at 10 N. St. Francis Avenue, P.O. Box 100, Poseyville, Indiana, 47633.

Condolences to the family may be made on line at www.werryfuneralhomes.com construction.

The Indiana National Guard unit in Evansville will serve as honor guard and Chris Harp will sing the National Anthem. Among the speakers will be Indiana State Representative Wendy McNamara and former Indianapolis Colts’ star Jacob Tamme.

Once the Harkers’ home is finished this coming September, more volunteers will come in to clean up the site and to do landscap-

ing. A key ceremony will be held to give the Harkers the keys to their new home when it is move-in ready.

RETROSPECT

Replacement parts, scars keep Motz humble, going full speed

By Holly Heerdink Armand Motz is as tough as the nails he uses at his job.

The 72-year-old has spent nearly his entire life in his family’s construction business, and he has had his fair share of injuries to prove it, including two knee replacements and an accident that resulted in multiple broken ribs. Although his job is physically demanding, Armand continues to works half days.

“I wouldn’t exactly say I’m going strong,” Armand chuckled, “but I’m still going.”

When Armand was just 13 years old, he started helping his father in construction.

He spent his summers carrying large concrete blocks for the houses they built on the north side of Evansville.

Even in his early teenage years, Armand worked from the early morning until it was dark outside.

“Things are a bit different now,” he said. “Now we have air hammers and things like that to help us out.”

Armand has many interesting stories from his long history in construction.

More than 40 years ago, he and his crew had just put the finishing touches on Carl’s Drive-in Restaurant in New Harmony. It was the day of the grand opening, and Armand was storing some of the leftover lumber in the building’s attic, when he lost his footing and fell through the ceiling.

“Carl’s daughter was down there over the soda fountain, and she just screamed out real loud when she saw my legs sticking through,” Armand said.

“Well, that’s the worst thing that could happen on an opening day.”

Armand also remembers tearing down a funeral home in Cynthiana in 1961.

Armand was able to salvage the lumber from the building, and he and his father used it to construct his current home. Armand and his wife Peggy have lived in that house since the two married nearly 50 years ago.

Despite the good memo-

ries, construction is a dangerous job, a fact made painfully clear on December 18 about six years ago.

Armand was working at a height of over 20 feet when he fell from his scaffolding to the basement floor of a building. He broke several ribs, and doctors feared he might have ruptured his spleen. Although he was in a great deal of pain, Armand refused to spend Christmas in the hospital, and he returned home on Christmas Eve. Nowadays when Armand is not working, he enjoys gardening, camping and fishing. He also dedicates a lot of his time to his eight grandchildren. Armand estimates that he and Peggy attended around 50 baseball games this spring between the Varsity, Junior Varsity and Little League teams his grandsons play for.

“I think we’ve gone to just about as many ballgames as anybody has,” he said. “We have season passes for all the sports.”

As Armand talked about his family and reminisced

Armand and Peggy Motz smile from the deck of their home. From their backyard, they can see parts of Gibson, Vanderburgh and Posey counties. Photo by Holly Heerdink about his past, he walked traveling, and they have fun times at Rend Lake and around the outside of his taken road trips to Alaska weekend getaways.

“That’s our pride and home. He grinned as he in campers like this. But came to a stop and pointed this particular camper is joy,” Armand said, smiling. to his camper. He and Peg- their sixth and favorite thus “Time flies when you’re gy have always enjoyed far. It holds the promise of having fun.”

Christian radio celebrates 22 years of broadcasts On July 20,1990, Shirley Chagle pushed the button to begin daily radio broadcasts on WBGW, 101.5 FM as her husband, Don looked on. This brand new radio station was to become the first of 4 Christian radio stations in Indiana, Illinois and Kentucky, as the Chagles’ vision became a reality on that summer day. This July, what then became Thy Word Network, will celebrate 22 years of broadcasting God’s Word through music and ministry, with over 190,000 hours of continuous operation. Shirley has now gone to be with the Lord, Don is retired, but the

stations keep going as God provides for the ministry.

From the very first day of broadcasting, the radio station began transmitting a Christian Radio format that brought a balanced mix of in-depth Bible teaching, contemporary Christian music, news and information unlike any other on the dial. And as a non-commercial station, the format was unique for its complete lack of commercials. Thy Word Network continues to operate that way today, 22 years later, relying primarily on donations from listeners to underwrite all of its operating expenses. The major-

ity of this funding is raised through a 3-day radio Sharathon held each September, and typically 1200+ donors will partner with the network to underwrite operations for the next year.

Some of these donors have been part of the ministry since the very beginning.

What began with one station, WBGW 101.5 fm in Evansville, grew with the addition of WBHW 88.7 Loogootee in 1995, WBJW 91.7 Albion, Ill. in 1997, and in 2006, 106.5 fm in Owensboro was added as a translator, repeating the WBGW signal to Daviess County, Ky. More

Seeds of the Sower Everyone seems to love Charlie Brown, the hero of the comic strip Peanuts. One day he and Lucy were strolling along when she stopped and picked up a daisy and began to pluck the petals one by one, saying, “He loves me, he loves me not. He loves me, he loves me not.” Plucking the last petal she said, “He loves me! Charlie Brown, you love me!”

“Well,” he said, “I could have told you

By Michael Guido that.”

Sadly she asked, “But why didn’t you?”

We often neglect to tell those whom we love that we do indeed love them – that they are important to us, that we care for them deeply and that they mean as much to us as life itself. It is important that we speak and share our love with others. And if the love of God is in our hearts, then the love of God will be seen in our lives.

Community invited to 30th anniversary celebration of Salon 425

Pictured is the staff of the full-service Salon 425, located at 710 Main Street in Mount Vernon. From L to R: Owner Cheryl Edwards Roos, hairstylist Sydney Duckworth, hairstylist Ellen Bean, nail technician Michelle Seifert and receptionist Kevin Roach.

Roos invites the public to her 30th anniversary celebration on Saturday, July 21, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Photo by Pam Robinson

By Pam Robinson Thirty years ago, much to the dismay of her father Dr. Emmet Edwards, Dean of the USI College of Business,

Cheryl Edwards Roos graduated from Tri-State Beauty College on July 8, 1982, after a year of training. Dr. Edwards grew to support his

daughter’s career choice, for he saw her succeed at a profession she loves.

“I’m just very fortunate to do what I want to do and to

do it every day,” Roos comments. “I don’t always want to get up and go to work, but I always love what I do. You can’t have a bad day when you’re having a good hair day.

To celebrate her good fortune, Roos invites the community to join her and her staff at Salon 425, located at 710 Main Street in Mount Vernon, on Saturday, July 21, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. for her 30th anniversary party.

Guests can expect drawings every hour for door prizes and giveaways. Giveaways include a Sunsations package donated by Robin Oeth, color treatment, nail products, curling irons and flat irons. Chef Chad will be on hand as will Keesha Allen, a certified fitness instructor and owner of Curves in Mount Vernon.

Loyal clients, some in the third and even fourth generation, also plan to attend. One long-time client, Tonya McDaniel, claimed Roos as her hairstylist during junior high. Since then,

McDaniel’s mother Shirley Rose and grandmother Joyce Rose have become attached to Roos, and now McDaniel’s three children (21, 17 and 9) all go to Salon 425.

“Cheryl has a great service.

She’s really, really great at what she does. It’s really a great atmosphere. Cheryl is really a great person,” McDaniel says.

Salon 425 maintains the staff to provide a full-service salon. The three hairstylists are Roos, Sydney Duckworth and Ellen Bean. Their services include shampoo, cut and style, color and hi-lites, permanents, and waxing.

Nail tech Michelle Seifert does pedicures, manicures (with nail gel if preferred), and nail art. As an add-on service, hot paraffin and hot stone treatments for hands and feet are available. In addition, Salon 425 stocks a variety of professional products for hair and nails. Office receptionist Kevin Roach answers the phone at 812-8381554 and schedules appoint-

ments although walk-ins are welcome.

Closed on Monday and Sunday, Salon 425 opens at 9 a.m. Tuesday through Saturday. The salon operates until 5 p.m. on Tuesday, noon on Wednesday and Saturday, and until 7 p.m. on Thursday and Friday.

The Saturday, July 21, anniversary party at Salon 425 is Roos’ way to thank the community for supporting her for 30 years.

“People can go anywhere to get their hair cut and colored. I really appreciate people who keep coming back to support my staff and me.

That’s just huge in a small town where it’s so easy to run to Evansville,” Roos comments.

“A lot of people now are not just customers—they’re friends. I got a lot of support when my mother passed away. They sent so many things to the funeral. It made me realize just how many people do support me. I would like to say thank you.”

Public hearing slated concerning increase in CCDF rate

By Pam Robinson Three members of Mount Vernon City Council quickly dispatched business on Thursday, July 12, 2012. Present for the meeting were council members Becky Higgins, Andy Hoehn and Sue Shelton. By far, the most important action was the approval to proceed with a proposed resolution to re-establish the cumulative capital development fund, or CCDF, to the maximum statutory rate of $.05, an increase from the existing $.0333 rate (not $.0308 as previously reported). At the advice of Umbaugh & Associates, council is pursuing the rate increase to generate more revenue for the

City of Mount Vernon.

City Attorney Beth McFadin Higgins said the proposed resolution will now be published twice before the special meeting to allow for a public hearing, set for Monday, July 30, at 6 p.m. in the City Hall Annex. After the public hearing, council members will take final action on the resolution.

Earlier, during the meeting of the Water Utility Board, City Water Superintendent Chuck Gray announced that the Department of Natural Resources, or DNR, and the Indiana Department of Environmental Management, or IDEM, had declared Posey

County as a water emergency county. Gray said the declaration asks for a voluntary 15 percent reduction in water usage. He asked residents to stop watering their lawns and to restrict the water used to water plants and wash cars.

Gray also reported on the progress of the water improvement project. Most important, he noted that the temporary intakes would be set as permanent backup intakes

by July 20, when work begins on the new permanent intakes. After the meeting, Gray explained the new intakes would be flexible like those in Japan which withstood the force of the tsunami. He said the new in-

takes would have a life span of 50-70 years.

In other business: • City Attorney Beth McFadin Higgins presented council members with two samples of animal control ordinances, one more comprehensive than the other, recently passed in nearby Indiana towns. She asked council to review the ordinances and contact her with information they would like to see in the new animal control ordinance she is drafting for their vote.

The Mount Vernon City Council will meet again in regular session Thursday, July 26, 2012, at 7 p.m. in the City Hall Annex.

Drought conditions keep Posey County under emergency state

By Valerie Werkmeister The extreme heat and drought conditions in Posey County forced the commissioners to issue an emergency declaration prohibiting open burning and the use of fireworks within the county. The decision came after some discussion during their regular meeting Tuesday, July 3.

Emergency Management Agency Director, Larry Robb, addressed the commissioners on the emergency ban stating that although the various county fire chiefs had issued a burn ban, there was no way to enforce it. If the commissioners issued the ban, it would give county law enforcement officers the ability to cite individuals who don’t comply with the ban. He acknowledged that most citizens were using common sense and not attempting to burn during these intensely dry conditions. He added that 85 out of Indiana’s 92 counties had issued a ban.

Robb also asked the commissioners to add a provision that prohibits shooting off fireworks.

He stated that after consulting with the fire chiefs, a majority of the fire departments within

the county agreed that it would be within the best interests of the county to include a ban on the fireworks.

The commissioners asked Robb to utilize the Code Red system to notify county residents of the ban that will be in effect until they decide to lift it.

Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem as though it will be lifted anytime soon as the National Weather Service has predicted that July will also have below average precipitation levels.

A new state law that went into effect July 1, requires smokers to stay away from public entrances at least eight feet before lighting up.

Signs must be posted notifying citizens that the establishment is smoke-free and that smoking is prohibited within eight feet of the entrance. It also prohibits smoking inside public buildings and requires ashtrays to be removed.

County employees are already required to stay back a minimum of 25 feet from public entrances. The commissioners have decided to include the public in this same requirement.

They have asked attorney Trent Van Haaften to draw up an ordinance. The state law require-

ments will be observed until a formal ordinance is passed.

The wheels of the Narrowbanding project were put into motion as commissioners gave Sabrina Harms, E911 Dispatch Director the nod to move forward. The commissioners recently approved the $282,019 quote from J & S Communications. Narrowbanding is a federal mandate that requires all public safety and business land mobile radio systems that operate in the 150-512 MHz radio bands to stop operating at 25 kHz and begin using 12.5 kHz technology.

According to Harms, it will four to six weeks for the equipment to come in and an additional two months to install. The contract with J & S requires 50 percent of the cost to be paid when the order is placed, 25 percent to be paid when the equipment arrives and the final 25 percent to be paid at the completion of the project.

Commissioners approved a Disaster Debris Management Plan recommended by Robb. The plan outlines procedures that need to be followed in the event of an emergency or disaster for debris removal.

Don Koester Masonry and Construction was awarded the contract to construct a new salt storage building for the highway department.

Koester’s company was the only one to bid on the project. The total cost for the project will be $89,970.

Ameresco representative, Dan Reninger, gave a presentation on his company’s energy

efficiency audit services. He stated the company would analyze the windows and doors as well as other operating systems to ensure that all things are working as efficiently as possible.

There was no action taken on his presentation.

A master agreement and tax sale work plan agreement with SRI were approved by the commissioners. They tabled a decision to sign an agreement for the homestead verification portion. Auditor Nick Wildeman stated he was trying to contact another vendor to schedule a presentation of his services.

A discussion on the insulation project for the Hovey House was tabled as Building Commissioner, Ed Battieger, was unable to attend the meeting.

Animal Control Officer, Chuck Mobley, submitted an activity report for the past month. He handled a total of 37 complaints, picked up 11 animals, had four animal bite calls, administered one rabies test and had to euthanize one animal.

In other business, the commissioners approved: • Change order #3 for the Wabash Levee Unit 5 • A semi-annual grant report for the Indiana Office of Community and Rural Affairs • The appointment of Dee Brown to the Workforce Investment Board.

The next regular meeting will be held Tuesday, July 17, at 9 a.m.

Absentee Ballot Application and instructions for 2012 Absentee Ballot Applications are confusing, so to prepare for the November 6 General Election, The Posey County Clerk’s Office offers some explanation of this process that may be helpful.

An Absentee Ballot Application can be obtained by calling the Posey County Election Office at 838-1339 or online @ www.IndianaVoters.com. On the right side of the page listed under Latest News, you will find: ABS-1: Application for Absentee Ballot.

The application should be fully completed legibly and sent to the County Election Office at P.O. Box 606, Mt. Vernon, IN 47620; bring it to the Courthouse at 300 Main St, in Mt. Vernon, or fax to 838-1307. This information must be put into the state voter system.

Part 1 asks for your name to be printed. If you use your middle name or nickname, please print your real name. The state system does not know you and must be able to find your registration.

Birth dates are important because there may be two John Doe’s in the area; perhaps Junior and Senior. Registration address requires street number and name, city/ town, state and zip code.

Telephone numbers are important for question.

Part 2 needs to be completed if your mailing address is not the same as the address you already entered.

Part 3 does not pertain to the November election.

Part 4 contains information on the 2 voting methods available. Voting by mail (A) requires you to check 1 of the 11 choices best explaining the reason for wanting to vote absentee. Voting by travel board (C) gives 2 choices and asks where you want to be voted.

Check what best pertains to you, and fill in the address of where to be voted if required.

After completing the above information on the application, you must sign and date with the month, day and year.

Please verify all information is complete, accurate and legible. Any application not filled out completely will be returned.

Anyone who assists a voter with an Absentee Ballot Application must complete all the information required at the bottom of the form which is part 5.

Hopefully this helps simplify the process, but should you have further questions, please call us at either 8381339 (Kenda) or 838-1306, Clerk’s Office.

Brittlebank swimmers prepare for push as season winds down

By Steve Joos The Brittlebank Barracudas may not have had the numbers, but the Mount Vernon age group swim team had the ability to be competitive Thursday night in Evansville.

“We did great today,” Coach Nicholas Loehr said. “We had small numbers, but everyone had their best times today.”

The Barracudas built on that performance Saturday with a third place finish in the Fairfield Invitational, where they came in third.

“We had some great swims from Zach Culley and Christopher Newman,” pool manager Ruth Fulwider said. “Several of the other swimmers did well.”

How many swimmers are “several”?

Eleven swimmers, to be exact.

In addition to Newman and Zach Culley, point producers among the eight year old boys, Hannah West was third among the six-year old girls, while Emily Hueftle and Alyana “Layne” Courey tied for second among the 9-10-year old girls.

Maiya Courey (11-12 girls) and Hannah Cross (13-14 girls) were each third in their respective age groups, while some older male Cudas went 1-2 in their classes-Loehr and Sage Irons (open boys), along with Jake Duckworth and Jordan Crabtree (13-14 boys).

With the conference meet coming up at the end of the month, performances like Thursday’s should help, Loehr added, especially if more kids turn out.

“The whole team performed well,” Loehr said. “We’ve gotten third in the past two invitationals.”

The Cudas have probably seen enough of Carmi, at least until conference meet time, especially after the recent meets at the Illinois pool.

The Bullfrogs posted a 432-278 win in their recent dual meet, and then hosted an invitational where Brittlebank came in third, scoring 247 points.

The hosts won the meet with 533 points, while Olney (501) took second. Fairfield was fourth with 239 tallies, followed by Wabash Valley (208), Harrisburg (158) and McLeansboro (109).

Once again, Brittlebank swimmers turned in a lot of good relay times and had a number of high point producers in both meets, Loehr said.

The Cudas had nine swimmers in the high-point rankings, including two top-point leaders.

Zach Culley paced the eight and under boys with 28 points, while Jordan Craig took the 13-14 boys crown, also with 28.

Duckworth (20 tallies) combined with Craig to go 1-2 in the 13-14 boys’ group, while Nicot Burnett (19) and Landan Ross (eight) were 2-3 among the six and under boys. Newman tied for fifth in the eight and under boys with six points.

Hueftle (18) was second among the 9-10 girls and Logan Culley (16) third in the 11-12 boys’ class.

Cross tied for third among the

13-14 girls with 13 points, as did West in the six and under girls’ class (11).

He also feels that his team has a good chance in the upcoming Illiana Conference swim meet, where the Barracudas have finished second the last two years.

Owen Dunn Legion team becomes aggressive as tourney time nears

By Steve Joos The Mount Vernon American Legion baseball team had its hitting shoes on last week, but they were a little late getting them on one night and couldn’t pull off a comeback.

Drake McNamara paced a 15-hit attack with three blows, including a double and a home run, while Trevor Veeck pitched five strong innings of relief, but it wasn’t enough, as Rockport scored eight runs in the first two innings and went from there to post a 10-7 win over the visitors from Owen Dunn Post Five Wednesday night, one night after Mount Vernon pummeled visiting Boonville in eight innings under the 10-run rule 15-5 at home.

“We had a second inning play with a ground ball back to the pitcher where we didn’t get anybody out,” Coach Dan McNamara said. “I don’t think anybody scored on that, but instead of having two outs, we had hits boom, boom, boom eight runs in two innings. That was a deep hole. We didn’t quit, we kept hitting the ball, Trevor Veeck came in and did a nice job, and we kept scoring and almost had them at the end.”

The misplay came at a time when Rockport led 4-0 and enabled the Spencer County team to plate four more runs and take an 8-0 lead, chasing starting pitcher Drake McNamara from the mound (but not the plate).

McNamara told his hitters to stay aggressive and keep looking for good pitches to drive and that advice finally paid off in the top of the sixth, when Craig Beeson knocked in two runs with one of his pair of two-baggers.

That cut the score to 8-2. In the seventh, Jevin Redman walked to open the inning and stayed there until Drake McNamara parked a pitch over the left field fence, cutting the lead to 8-4.

Rockport finally got to Veeck for two runs in the bottom of the seventh, but Mount Vernon went down swinging in the ninth, as Drake McNamara opened with a double, moved to third on a passed ball and scored on Beeson’s second double of the game, which also brought in Seth Reeves.

“We’re swinging the bats pretty good,” Coach McNamara said. “If we can keep from

walking guys and not dig ourselves such a big hole, so we can have a chance in the last three innings, we’d do well.”

In addition to Beeson and Drake McNamara, Redman, Reeves, Bryce Newman and River VanZant each had two hits. Beeson drove in three runs, Drake McNamara two and Newman one, while one of Reeves’ blows was a double.

Owen Dunn stung the ball early and often en route to a 15-5 win over Boonville in a Tuesday game which lasted eight innings under the 10-run rule.

“We came out aggressive, swinging the bats,” Coach McNamara said. “We got some hard-hit balls that got in and we scored a bunch of runs on them early, so it was a good start.”

On Tuesday night, Post Five dug the deep hole and pushed Boonville in, scoring seven runs in the first two innings, including five in the first.

“They were throwing fastballs and we’re a good fastball hitting team,” the coach explained. “We hit it where it was pitched and

got a few to drop in and that makes it a little bit easier on your defense and your pitcher to score a bunch of runs early.”

Drake McNamara banged out five of Post Five’s 15 hits, including a double with an RBI. And then it was wham! Bam! VanZant, as the Mount Vernon infielder had three hits, getting one to go in and two to go out of the park.

VanZant’s first home run was part of that five-run first inning, which erased a 1-0 Boonville lead. The visitors scored in the top of the second, but Owen Dunn answered with two more to open a 7-2 advantage.

Reeves and Redman each had two hits in the game, with Reeves stroking a basesclearing double in the bottom of the fourth to open a 10-2 Mount Vernon lead.

Boonville scored three in the top of the fifth to make it 10-5, but that was all they would get as Mount Vernon all but salted the contest away in the bottom of the sixth.

Junior Legion closes with a win The Mount Vernon Junior American Legion baseball team wrapped up its season last week with an 11-6 victory over visiting Junior Pate this week.

Austin Krizan pitched eight-and-one-third innings to get the win, while Austin Montgomery and Brandon Merrick each collected a pair of hits and drove in two runs. One of Montgomery’s blows was a double.

“This was our last game of the season and we played well,” coach Kevin Krizan said.

“We had good defense, good pitching and timely hitting. It was a nice way to end the season.”

The win also avenged an 11-4 loss to Pate Junior in the previous game between the two squads at the Harrison High School field in Evansville.

The Junior Legion closed out its season

with a 5-5 record. Krizan was pleased with the progress his team made while facing a schedule made up primarily of players from different high schools, while the Post Five Junior and Senior teams are all players from Mount Vernon.

“Overall, I think we had a very good season,” Krizan said. “We played a number of people in different positions and we had a number of pitchers who got a chance after not getting many innings earlier in the year.”

One of those hurlers, Wyatt Dixon, proved to be highly effective on the mound, while Austin Krizan, Landon Brown and Montgomery earned playing time with the senior Legion team.

Weather is better but Golfmoor too much for North Posey

By Steve Joos The weather was better early last week, but so was the competition in the District 13 12-year-old Little League baseball game at Golfmoor.

The hosts jumped on North Posey for four runs in the bottom of the first inning and went from there to post a 10-0 victory last week.

“We ran into a good team,” Coach Rob Voegel said. “We didn’t put the bat on the ball, we missed our spots a bit with our pitches, but we fought hard.”

Golfmoor hit North Posey coming and going, striking for four runs in the bottom of the first and then ending the contest with a five-run fifth inning. A one-out double scored the game-ending run.

Voegel was philosophical about the loss, adding that the team showed a great deal of potential.

“We had a couple of opportunities to get out of (the bottom of the fifth),” Voegel said. “We had a couple of ground balls that we didn’t make the plays on, but this is a good group. I told them, ‘in the grand scheme of things, losing a Little League championship doesn’t compare to winning a Sectional championship.’”

Offensively, North Posey was held to three hits and five baserunners total. The 12-year-olds put two runners on in the top of the fourth inning, but couldn’t get anyone home.

The team fought hard and posted a 4-2 record coming out of one of the toughest brackets in the area.

The title tilt was moved back a night due to lightning, the second such weather-related interruption to the tourney.

Good pitching, error-free defense and hits at just the right time was how North Posey reached the championship game.

Grant Parker singled, moved around to third and scored on a wild pitch in the bottom of the second inning and then made it stand up as North Posey edged Highland 1-0 to reach the championship game of the District 13 12-year-old All-Star Little League baseball tournament in the tourney semifinals.

It was simply put, a duel, and North Posey had enough to pull things out.

“It was a hard-fought, six inning game,” Voegel said. “We had timely hitting, we pitched an excellent game, we played very good defense. The pitching and defense kept us in the game and the hitting finally put us on the board.”

Parker singled with one out in the bottom of the second inning and North Posey got all the offense it would need when he took second on a ground out, went to third on an infield hit by Alec Goetz and scored on a wild pitch.

But after that, things got hairy on both ends.

A potential second run was thrown out at the plate in the bottom of the fourth inning for North Posey, but the 12-year-olds needed plenty of support when Highland was at the plate, ending the top of the first with a double play and then escaping a basesloaded situation in the fifth on a force at third.

Voegel praised his defense for playing well throughout the tournament and was especially pleased with the pitching.

“I can’t say enough about our pitching,” the coach said. “Jordan Goedde pitched one of the best games I’ve seen him throw.

Brandon Hamman came in and got those two strikeouts.”

Hamman relieved with one out in the top of the sixth and struck out two Highland batters to salt away the win.

After going 2-1 in pool play, the 12-year-olds took a forfeit over Petersburg to open the week after heavy lightning throughout the area forced the postponement of their game, moving them into the semifinals.

“We’ve been playing well,” Voegel said. “The pitchers have been throwing well; we’ve been getting timely hitting. We can still play together better and put together six good innings and when we do that, we can be competitive.”

The lone loss was to Golfmoor, 6-0, in a game that was closer than the score indicated. North Posey trailed 1-0 for most of the contest, but a five-run fifth inning broke things open for the

Evansville team.

Goedde and Grant Parker pitched two and two-thirds innings of shutout ball, but the offense was silent, as Golfmoor’s pitcher tossed a no-hitter.

North Posey rallied to win their season opener 5-4 over Highland.

Trailing 4-0 in the bottom of the fifth, a single by David Bender and an error cut the lead in half. Then in the sixth inning, Wes Voegel led off with a double and Hamman belted a two-run homer to knot things up at 4-4. Bender came back to win the game with a bases-loaded single over a drawn-in Highland offense.

Bender and Hamman each had two hits, while Voegel, Parker, Goedde and Goetz each had one. Voegel and Hamman combined to keep Highland in check from the mound.

“We battled for six innings and never gave up,” Voegel said “This was a true ‘team win.’”

Hamman was hitting .600 through the first three games of the tournament, with four hits, including a double and home run against Haubstadt in North Posey’s second pool win, a 14-11 slugfest.

North Posey banged out 19 hits and scored 14 runs while building a 10-run lead through five innings, only to let Haubstadt back into the contest with seven runs in the last two frames. Defensive mistakes were the key reason for Haubstadt’s comeback, Voegel said.

Wes Voegel was the winning pitcher and had three hits in the game, as did Parker. Austin Pierson, Madison Wassmer, Goetz and Goedde each had two blows, wile Cody Reese added one.

Dylan O’Brien and Carter Martin were the other players on the North Posey 12-year-old roster.

“River got into a couple of them,” Coach McNamara said.

“But everybody hit the ball well. Just about everybody hit the ball well. Trevor (Veeck) came in off the bench and got a hit.

Everybody hit the ball well.”

Hank Dausmann overcame a balk and a pair of wild pitches to get the win for Mount Vernon, with relief help from J.T. Silvers, while Redman drove in a run.

THE POSEY COUNTY NEWS • SERVING THE COUNTY SINCE 1882 • WWW.POSEYCOUNTYNEWS.COM

North Posey’s Paul Rynkiewich is honored by IFCA Assistant football coaches sometimes have to work under the radar, helping to prepare their teams for each week’s game for just the smallest amount of, if any, recognition.

It’s the kind of life Paul Rynkiewich has been leading for the past 30 years at North Posey High School and veteran assists was recognized on one of the state’s biggest stages Friday night.

Rynkiewich received a Distinguished Service Award from the Indiana Football Coaches’ Association at halftime of the North-South AllStar game at North Central High School in Indianapolis.

“It’s been a very wonderful experience,” Rynkiewich said of his 30 years at North Posey. “I’ve enjoyed

working with the team and working with the community. We’ve had a lot of good kids who’ve worked very hard and we’ve had a lot of great players. North Posey is a wonderful place to coach football. The community has been very supportive over the years and it’s just been a great experience.”

A Pittsburgh native and graduate of Mount Vernon High School and the University of Southern Indiana, Rynkiewich came to North Posey in 1983, after one year at Castle High School, where he coached the Knights freshmen during the Warrick County school’s 1982 state championship season.

He coached the reserves for four years before moving up to varsity line coach

in 1987.

He has been in charge of the offensive and defensive lines since 1987 and has also been the offensive coordinator under Coach Joe Gengelbach since 1992.

“It was an honor to coach in this game (the NorthSouth All-Star contest, where he was offensive coordinator in 1997) and to go to three Semistates (1995-96 and 2005), as well as going to the (RCA Dome) in 2005 (when the Vikings finished second in the state),” Rynkiewich said. “It was also a highlight to coach my son, Frank, during his high school career.

We won the (Pocket Athletic Conference) championship in his senior year (2008) and we won the PAC this last season (2011). Those were

also highlights.”

Rynkiewich called the introduction of the spread offense (which features three, four or five wide outs) into Indiana High School football as a major change in the game over the course of his career.

The spread, which came to the state when Joe Tiller became head coach at Purdue in the late 1990s, has opened up the offense in the high school game, Rynkiewich said.

Gengelbach recognized the amount of effort and the dedication that goes into coaching while congratulating Rynkiewich on his achievement.

“This is an outstanding award,” Gengelbach said.

“It takes a great deal of per-

severance and dedication to work with kids and it takes a great deal of dedication to work with young people for 30 years.”

In addition to his football duties, Rynkiewich has been the head boys’ track coach at North Posey, while serving as an assistant softball and girls’ basketball coach, helping direct the softball Lady Vikings to a Class 2A state championship game appearance in 2007. He has also been a social studies teacher since coming to North Posey.

Rynkiewich lives in the

St. Phillip area with his wife, Melissa. Their son Frank is a senior mechanical engineering student at the University of Southern Indiana who is currently interning at the Alcoa plant in Newburgh, while daughter Libby is an emergency room nurse at Deaconess Medical Center in Evansville.

Rynkiewich also received a master’s degree from the University of Evansville. He was one of several honored by the IFCA for 30 years’ service in Hoosier high school football.

Great service at a great price...

Little League stars reach championship game

By Steve Joos Good pitching, errorfree defense and hits at just the right time.

That’s how the North Posey 12-year-old All-Star baseball team reached the District 13 championship game Sunday in Evansville.

Grant Parker singled, moved around to third and scored on a wild pitch in the bottom of the second inning Thursday night and then made it stand up as North Posey edged Highland 1-0 to reach the championship game of the District 12-year-old AllStar Little League baseball tournament.

It was simply put, a duel, and North Posey had enough to pull things out.

“It was a hard-fought, six inning game,” Coach Rob Voegel said. “We had timely hitting, we pitched an excellent game, we played very good defense.

Parker singled with one out in the bottom of the second inning and North Posey got all the offense it would need when he took second on a ground out, went to third on an infield hit by Alec Goetz and scored on a wild pitch.

But after that, things got hairy on both ends.

A potential second run was thrown out at the plate in the bottom of the fourth inning for North Posey, but

the 12-year-olds needed plenty of support when Highland was at the plate, ending the top of the first with a double play and then escaping a bases-loaded situation in the fifth on a force at third.

Voegel praised his defense for playing well throughout the tournament and was especially pleased with the pitching.

“I can’t say enough about our pitching,” the coach said. “Jordan Goedde pitched one of the best games I’ve seen him throw. Brandon Hamman came in and got those two strikeouts.”

Hamman relieved with one out in the top of the sixth and struck out two Highland batters to salt away the win.

After going 2-1 in pool play, the 12-year-olds took a forfeit over Petersburg to open the week, moving them into the semifinals.

Heavy lightning throughout the area forced the postponement of North Posey’s game with Petersburg at Golfmoor.

“We’ve been playing well,” Voegel said. “The pitchers have been throwing well; we’ve been getting timely hitting. We can still play together better and put together six good innings and when we do that, we can be competitive.”

The lone loss was to Golfmoor, 6-0, in a game that was closer than the score indicated. North

Posey trailed 1-0 for most of the contest, but a fiverun fifth inning broke things open for the Evansville team.

Goedde and Grant Parker pitched two and twothirds innings of shutout ball, but the offense was silent, as Golfmoor’s pitcher tossed a no-hitter.

North Posey rallied to win their season opener 5-4 over Highland.

Trailing 4-0 in the bottom of the fifth, a single

by David Bender and an error cut the lead in half.

Then in the sixth inning, Wes Voegel led off with a double and Hamman belted a two-run homer to knot things up at 4-4. Bender came back to win the game with a bases-loaded single over a drawn-in Highland offense.

Bender and Hamman each had two hits, while Voegel, Parker Goedde and Goetz each had one.

Voegel and Hamman combined to keep Highland in check from the mound.

“We battled for six innings and never gave up,” Voegel said “This was a true ‘team win.’”

Hamman was hitting .600 through the first three games of the tournament, with four hits, including a double and home run against Haubstadt in North Posey’s second pool win, a 14-11 slugfest.

North Posey banged out 19 hits and scored 14 runs while building a 10-run lead through five innings,

only to let Haubstadt back into the contest with seven runs in the last two frames.

Defensive mistakes were the key reason for Haubstadt’s comeback, Voegel said.

Wes Voegel was the winning pitcher and had three hits in the game, as did Parker. Austin Pierson, Madison Wassmer, Goetz and Goedde each had two blows, wile Cody Reese added one.

Dylan O’Brien and Carter Martin were the other players on the 12-year-old roster.

Kim Keene brings a smile to everyone’s face A transplant to Mount Vernon, Kim Keene enjoys the town, for it is small and inviting like Bourbon, Ind., the hometown of both Kim and her husband Mike. Above all, the public school system convinced the Keenes to move to Mount Vernon rather than to Evansville with their two elementary-aged daughters when Mike was transferred to the Babcock & Wilcox here. Indeed, the family ended up moving across the street from David Frye, then the principal of West Elementary, where both the Keene children were soon enrolled.

Shortly afterward, Kim became president of West PTO and an avid supporter of the MSD of Mount Vernon. She knows the Mount Vernon school system prepared her daughters for college and encourages everyone in the community to appreciate the excellence right in our backyard.

Many local residents also know Kim for her chair side manner as a registered dental hygienist for Dr. Nicholas Volz. Others are familiar with her work as past president of the Women’s Fund for the Posey County Community Foundation, or PCCF. Having served the Women’s Fund, she is now starting work on the PCCF board. Otherwise, she’s on the board for Western Hills Country Club and has been very

involved with the swim team and concession stand.

She and Mike are members of First United Methodist Church, and Kim is proud to serve as president of the board for the faith-based Susanna Wesley Preschool. The Keenes celebrated 31 years of marriage on May 16.

The couple’s daughters have indeed excelled in education and look forward to promising careers. Living in New York City, Katelin graduated from the prestigious Pratt Institute in May, having focused on communications and art advertising. She is now illustrating her first children’s book.

A sophomore at Butler, Kirstie is majoring in biomedical engineering and plans to do research for artificial organs.

Kim ran her first half marathon three years ago when she was 49 years old and enjoyed the sport so much she joined a running group in her neighborhood. The women train to complete a half marathon every year with their most recent challenge at the Flying Pig in Cincinnati. Every Wednesday, the group runs 5 miles, 6 miles every Saturday during the off-season. When training, they bump up the mileage. This spring, the group ran all the way to Bob Evans Restaurant on Evansville’s Westside—a stretch of 13 miles.

Kim and her husband Mike now consider Mount Vernon

their home. They love this community and plan to go the distance and retire here.

Keck-Gonnerman Notes I hope that you had a chance to read the other articles I wrote about the Keck Gonnerman Company. I have spent some time finding the information. In this article I will bring the Company up to the end of its time span.

In the Canadian wheat belt a total of 2,210 threshing machines of all makes were purchased in 1952. The number dropped to 701 in 1953. With the realization that the market for mobile steam engines and threshing machines was rapidly dwindling, Keck Gonnerman Company was sold in 1953 to two engi-

neers, Harrison and Spencer, from California who hoped to develop the manufacture of new equipment to fit into the changing farming pattern.

Keck Gonnerman, which exerted such a tremendous influence on the agricultural operations over all of North America and on the economy of the Mount Vernon area, was the outgrowth of a small foundry established in Mount Vernon in 1873 by John C. Woody and Winfield Woody.

John Keck, of Mount Vernon, entered the firm in1877 when he purchased the interest of Winfield Woody upon Woody’s death. Because of illness, John Woody retired in 1880 and his interest was purchased by John Onk, Louisville, Ky., and the firm of Keck and Onk made preparations to manufacture hollow ware. This ended when Mr. Onk returned to Louisville and William Gonnerman and Henry Kuebler, both of Mount Vernon, each

purchased a one-third interest in the business and the firm name was changed to Keck Gonnerman Company.

The manufacture of engines, threshers, and portable sawmills began in 1884.

Louis H. Keck, also a resident of Mount Vernon and a brother of John Keck, entered the firm in 1885 by buying the interest of Mr. Kuebler.

In 1901, the manufacturing establishment was incorporated as Keck Gonnerman Company. The corporation had authorized a capital of $201,000 and the following officers: John Keck, president; William Gonnerman, vice president; and Louis H. Keck, secretary-treasurer.

John Keck was in charge of purchases and sales; William Gonnerman, manufacturing; and Louis H. Keck, finance and office management.

As the years passed, sons of the original officers joined their fathers in the industry.

Franck L. Keck, son of John Keck, William H. Gonner-

man, son of William Gonnerman, and Louis D. Keck and Robert A. Keck, sons of Louis H. Keck, were associated with the firm for many years. With the advent of the automobile, Grover C. Keck, another son of John Keck, was assigned the operation of Keck Gonnerman Company’s new Automotive Department. It was this department that later became Keck Motor Company with Grover C. Keck as its head.

It came to be the Midwest’s oldest Ford Dealership.

I hope you have enjoyed reading about how the Keck Gonnerman Company came to Posey County. It was truly a large contributor to the development of Mount Vernon and Posey County as a manufacture of many agricultural machines, mining machines, sawmills, and river transportation equipment.

It is now the namesake of the Keck Gonnerman Antique Machinery Association Incorporation.

Ivy Griffin takes part in the horse show aboard her Western Pleasure horse.

/ünná ªÓ¥ Autumn Reich participates in the horse show at the Posey County Fair.

Blazing Saddles Horse and Pony 4-H Club participates in Fair

By Amanda Deig The Blazing Saddles Horse and Pony 4-H club had their horse show at the Posey County Fair Grounds on July 10. The first half of the show started at 9 a.m. and ended at 1 p.m. for the 4-H member to have a break from the heat. The second half of the show started at 4 p.m. The 4-H members did a great job during the events they participated in without

major accidents. Among those 4-H members is a ten year 4-Her, Ivy Griffin, who took part in most of all the events in the horse show with her western pleasure horse setting a good role model for the newer members of the club to attempt to try all the events. Another ten year member is Autumn Reich who also shows chickens at the 4-H Fair. She sets a good example for the

new members by how well she completes all of her 4-H projects that she signs up for.

The 4-H club concluded this year with a fun show for the members to take part in and enjoy riding with their fellow club members. The members work hard all year to get ready for the 4-H fair so having a fun show is a great way for the kids to relax and have fun.
