ONE DAY ONE NIGHT ONE COMMUNITY ONE FIGHT

Kalamazoo River and Morrow Lake now open On June 21 local, state and federal agencies announced that an additional 34 miles of the Kalamazoo River and the entire two miles of Morrow Lake were re-opened for recreational use for the first time in nearly two years following the Enbridge oil spill. “I am pleased that we are finally able to open a larger stretch of the river for people to use,” said Calhoun County Public Health Director Jim Rutherford. “We know that people have been eager to get back and start using the river again.” See story on page 48

City Council discusses ‘needed’ fire, police facilities The Marshall City Council approved the expenditure of nearly $49,000 in funds for architectural plans for new facilities for the Marshall Fire Department and Marshall Police Department. The Marshall Fire Department has hired C2AE of Grand Rapids to provide preliminary architectural services at a cost of $35,100 and the Marshall Police Department has retained Redstone Architects Inc. to update the proposal for a joint police feasibility study at a cost of $13,798. “Our police station is unsafe for our police officers, and with the tight spaces, our fire station is not safe for the firefighters,” Councilman Brent Williams said. See story on page 44

Local businessman Bob Voigt to host junior triathlon for third straight year Bob Voigt has run his company BV and Associates, Inc. out of his Marshall office for over a decade, but most people in town would be hard pressed to find this business that handles glass and window projects in commercial buildings from retail stores to hospitals to condominiums in Michigan and around the country. Locally, Voigt has been active with youth sports, namely The First Tee of Battle Creek and the Marshall AYSO Chapter. On July 21, he will host the Lyon Lake Junior Triathlon for the third straight year. See story on page 36

Exchange Club hears about the state of Marshall industry As the guest speaker at the Marshall Exchange Club’s June 18 meeting, Marshall Economic Development Manager Mike Hindenach opened his presentation not by speculating what could happen down the road, but rather by pointing out the recent successes for Marshall industry. “Sometimes it’s good to reflect...because we’re always thinking about the next project and rarely do we take the time to look at what we’ve accomplished,” said Hindenach, now in his sixth year at Marshall Economic Development. Overall, Hindenach said the outlook for local industry is “going to be stable more than it’s not.” See story on page 34

The debate continues: City Council makes plan to discuss hospital overlay district At its June 18 meeting, the Marshall City Council focused its discussion on how they plan to tackle the Hospital and Neighborhood Committee’s recommendations regarding the Oaklawn Hospital Campus Overlay District. “We will be having a general discussion on how you (the council) would like to go forward,” said Mayor Jim Dyer. “What do you need to know, and how do we grab that elephant; what do we want to do first? A public work session has tentatively been scheduled for Saturday, July 14 at 9 a.m. at the Public Services Building for the council to begin discussion of the overlay district. See story on page 10

f ever you have wondered about the Power of Purple, visit or participate in a Relay for Life event. There, you will see people of all ages working and walking to raise money to fund cancer research. Relay funds ARE making a difference; the five-year relative survival rate for all cancers diagnosed between 2001 and 2007 is 67 percent, up from 49 percent during 1975-1977. Look inside to learn about various ways to add to the Power. See story on page 32

Word on the Street

What are you looking forward to most in Alaska? Editor’s Corner

The 23rd Annual Alaska Great Lakes Project left Marshall June 16 with approximate 80 students, junior leaders and adults who will tour the nation’s 49th state for the next three weeks. The ad-visor&chronicle asked these six participants what they were looking forward to most on their trip.

by John Hendler Summer officially arrived last Wednesday, but in actuality, judging from the hot weather we’ve had in recent weeks, you could say it arrived sometime around Memorial Day. Ah, those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer. I don't know about you, but does it seem like summer isn't as “lazy” as it used to be? Summer used to mean that we took things just a bit slower. It was a time to catch our breath and just take it easy. But, today, summer is getting harder to distinguish from the other three seasons in terms of how busy we are. When I was a kid growing up in Florida (where it feels like summer year-round, and thus I had a good excuse for my laziness throughout the year), the three-month “summer vacation” from school seemed to go on forever, probably because we didn't have our entire summer planned out by Christmas like so many of us do today. I remember hanging out with friends day after day as we'd play some ball in the street in the morning, come in and watch some game show on TV (High Rollers was my favorite), eat peanut butter and jelly sandwiches for lunch, hit the local library and then go swimming at the city hall pool. Once I got home, my dad and I would play some ping-pong or we'd siphon out some gasoline from our station wagon (what memories) to fill up the lawn mower so I could cut the grass and run over (and annihilate) all the sprinkler heads. With few exceptions, my schedule was the same day after day, just like the movie Groundhog Day. Yes, it was a boring existence at times, but fortunately for us, as it turned out, we didn't know any better. Today, summer is so planned out that it leaves very little time to be bored. But to paraphrase that Holiday Inn commercial from a few years ago: Don't underestimate the value of being bored. With all the things that keep us on the run, it's nice sometimes just to have the chance to do nothing so we can reflect on all the things we've done and appreciate all the things we have in our life. Otherwise, summer rushes by, seemingly under the radar, and then we're left scratching our heads asking, “How come the leaves are changing color so soon?” So, let's try to take it a little easier and feel like we've been given a real compliment the next time someone calls us lazy. Until next week, may the good news be yours.

David Isaacs, Marshall

Abbey Ufkes, Marshall

“I’m looking forward to the whalewatching trip and the midnight baseball game.”

“I’m looking forward to climbing a mountain in Denali.”

Isabel Saville, Marshall

Maddie Benson, Marshall

Steve Washburn, Marshall

“Learning how to be more responsible for myself as well as hanging out with my friends for three weeks.”

“I’m looking forward to a little of everything and trying new things.”

“I’m looking forward to all the new adventures I haven’t seen in my previous 13 visits.”

Barbara Gary, Marshall “I am so excited to see a moose.”

Letters and Columns Fortunate to live in gifted, generous community To the Editor: It was with great pleasure and excitement that we celebrated the 75th Anniversary of the founding of Wilder Creek Conservation Club. Over 450 people attended the festivities and all seemed to enjoy every minute of it. We opened the day with an outstanding band concert pre-

sented by the WCCC Festival Band (aka Marshall Rotary Band). These fine musicians presented an exciting program that was met with resounding applause. Following the concert, guests and members walked the grounds, enjoyed buggy rides, primitive craft demonstrations and a tasty, home-

cooked meal. We believe that all left the grounds with a smile on their face and the desire to return to this beautiful, peaceful area. This day would not have been possible without the collaboration of many, many individuals and organizations. We are so fortunate to live in an area with so many

gifted and generous people. A big thank you goes out to all of you, and we look forward to your return to Wilder Creek Conservation Club. For more information, visit www.wildercreekconservatio nclub.org. WCCC Board and membership

Why were Marshall Academy students left out? To the Editor: Whoever submitted the article to the ad-visor&chronicle titled, “Twelve Marshall students honored for Children’s Literature Project” on page 4 of the May 26 issue, submitted a false and misleading article. In fact, 17 were honored and five

(30 percent) are Marshall Academy Students. Since you must have known how hard they all worked on this project, why would you hurt five of them by purposely ignoring them and lying that only 12 were honored? These five were hurt and we all were

saddened by your blatant lie. How dare you! We all know why you did it, but you shouldn’t take your disdain out on children. If you must, take it out on your upstanding Marshall citizens who established the Academy. Leave the children alone.

Dave Ratajczak, Marshall Ed itor ’s not e: The winners from Marshall Academy were not included in the information submitted to the ad-visor&chronicle for the May 26 issue.

Veteran’s Corner: Don gets money for camera shy vets Within the last two weeks, the “money wheel” at the VA Regional Office in Detroit has been turning and stopped on two Vietnam veterans from Olivet and Marshall. Both veterans did not want their picture in the paper. Both are people that I filed claims for and got them 60 percent service-connected for exposure to Agent Orange (dioxin) while serving

in Vietnam in the 1960s. It took over four years and a lot of hard work to get the veteran from Olivet from zero to 60 percent and then to 100 percent I/U. He’s a Marine and his birthday is the same day as mine, only he’s younger. We have become great friends over the last five years. It took me a year to convince him to let me do his claim. He’s a private person and flies under the radar. Once in a while I can get him out and to loosen up a little. I had some

help from his wife getting him to let me do his claim. I know she was pushing him a little They’re great people. The other veteran from Marshall, I also got 60 percent and then to 100 percent I/U. This veteran is good on the computer and helped me find evidence to support his claim with the VA. This veteran’s claim took a little over a year. The reason for that is because this veteran was only claiming one medical condition. The veteran from Olivet had a claim with mul-

tiple medical conditions that slowed down his claim. Over the past four years, I have gotten eight veterans to 100 percent service-connected. There are a lot of benefits that go to the veteran with 100 percent rating. It is not only a privilege, but also a lot of satisfaction being able to do this for veterans. Comments or questions, call American Legion Post 79 Service Officer Donald Weberling at 269-274-9440.
