Founder’s Day draws crowd By Joseph Slacian jslacian@thepaperofwabash.com Maria Smyth, owner of the Eclectic Shop, had a dream of a parade in downtown Wabash. On Saturday, Sept. 15, the dream came to a successful fruition in the inaugural Founder’s Day celebration. Some 105 entries took to the streets of Wabash on Saturday morning, much to the delight of scores who lined Canal and Market streets in hopes of seeing loved ones, enjoying the floats and marching units and, for children of all ages, catching candy tossed from the various parade entries. The parade kicked off the Founder’s Day celebration, which also saw a variety of activities both at Paradise Spring Historical Park and along Miami Street.
Smyth was pleased with the turnout and results of the event. “This is beyond my wildest expectations, absolutely,” she told The Paper of Wabash County. “Did you see the people on Canal Street and Market Street and over by Paradise Spring park all lined up? We had so many people participating. “We’ve heard a lot of positive comments about how great this was. We, the committee, noticed some mistakes, and noticed things we could have done differently, but it all came together beautifully.” Following the parade, people strolled around Miami Street, stopping at various vendor booths. A variety of entertainment offerings also took place throughout the afternoon, ranging from line dancing by the American Legion and Renegade A youngster waves to the crowd during the Founder’s Day parade on Saturday mornDancers, to performances by Dakota ing.

The Wabash County United Fund kicked off its 2018 fundraising campaign with the annual Wabash Rotary Club golf outing on Wednesday, Sept. 12. Nineteen teams signed up to play 18 holes of golf at the Honeywell Public Golf Course,
as well as to speak with representatives from the 21 agencies benefiting from the 2018 campaign. “This is United Fund’s 61st anniversary year, and we are especially excited to kick off the campaign with Wabash Rotary,” UF Executive Director Steve Johnson said. “It is such a wonderful opportunity for the busi-
ness community to come together in support of community programming.” The campaign seeks to raise $250,000 again this year. “We had some new teams sign up, some new participation, some new sponsorship, all the way around,” Johnson told The Paper of Wabash County. “We (continued on page 3)

‘Once Upon a Matress’ set for Ford Theater By Josh Sigler jsigler@thepaperofwabash.com At 16-years-old, Josh Maggart is used to being around a cross section of different age groups. So, being a young member of the cast of “Once Upon a Mattress” has been seamless for him, where it might not be for some others. “I get along with all different age groups,” Maggart said. “You
learn a lot more, whether it’s with younger kids, you learn to be responsible and mature with little kids. When it comes to elders, you learn a lot about life, because they’re wiser and they’ve had more time to go through it. They’ve had more life’s lessons.” “Once Upon a Mattress” will run Sept. 28 and 29 at 7:30 p.m., and Sept. 30 at 2 p.m. at the (continued on page 4)

Founder’s Day draws crowd ...continued from the front page Parker, the Wabash Valley Performers and the Wabash Community Dance Band. At Paradise Spring, the Paradise Spring Board presented the story of the signing of the Paradise Spring Treaty. Several other historical skits and discussions took place there as well, including the story of the McClure and Keller families, early settlers in Wabash County. Area school children performed at the park, as did Dan Daniels, who presented dulcimer music.
Miami Indian Nation Vice Chief spoke to the crowd, and local historian Pete Jones also addressed those in attendance. Beside the various programs at Paradise Spring, vendors and food trucks also could be found along the trail at the site. One of the displays at the park featured an old-fashioned merrygo-round, made with ropes, wooden planks and a tall pole placed in the ground.

Planning for the 2019 Founder’s Day is already underway, Smyth said. “We took note of some things that we missed, maybe some things we should have planned a little earlier to get others to participate, so that has us already thinking,” she said. “We’ll have our kickoff meeting in another week, and then we’ll start planning, going a little slower, hopefully. “People saw what a great event this was and how it brought the community together. We hope for some sponsorship for next year so we can do things bigger and better and more wonderful.” Smyth thanked those on the planning committee, as well as all those who participated in the event.

So, we’ve had a lot of new things this year that sort of stepped things up.” The big prize this year was a hole-inone prize provided by Dorais Chevrolet Buick GMC, with insurance coverage provided by INGUARD. Dave Dorais, a former member of the United Fund board of directors and UF campaign chair, has a special interest in the golf outing. “The golf outing allows me to continue to support the United Fund through the Wabash Rotary Club,” he said. “Other Rotary Club members join me in participating in planning the event selling raffle tickets and providing sponsorships. We have a great after-
noon of golf, we give back to the community and we have fun doing it. “What I like the most of all is that the event provides an opportunity for the golfers to meet the agency representatives face to face.” Dorais has been involved with the outing for more than 20 years. Joining him in the planning are fellow Rotarians Jami Bartel, Mark Frantz, Kimberly Lundmark and administrative assistant Toby Smith. Two new programs – Homeless Action of Wabash County and Pathfinder Services’ Volunteer Income Tax Preparation (VITA) Program – are the newest agencies to benefit from the UF campaign.

Work set for U.S. 24 intersection By The Paper staff The Indiana Department of Transportation announces construction of an added turn from U.S. 24 to C.R. W 100 S in the City of Wabash. Work is scheduled to begin on the added travel lane project on or after Friday, Sept. 14, weather permitting. On Friday, motorists can expect lane restrictions and work near the median on U.S. 24 eastbound at the intersection of C.R. W 100 S, as construction begins. The
completed project will result in a new left turn lane from eastbound U.S. 24 to northbound C.R. W 100 S, which is expected to reduce congestion at the intersection during peak times of the day: INDOT reminds drivers to use caution and consider worker safety when traveling through any active construction zone.

‘Once Upon a Matress’ set for Ford Theater ... continued from the front page Honeywell Center. Maggart will play Prince Dauntless in the musical comedy production put on by Wabash Area Community Theater (WACT). Dauntless is a young heir who is seeking a princess to marry. “And his mom doesn’t want him to,” Director Dana McAfee said. “She’s the queen, so she can pretty much devise any kind of test that she wants for a princess trying to win his hand. They’re horrible tests.” The mother, Queen Aggravain, is played by Sandy Ploss, a former music teacher. “In the beginning,
I’m more of a mama’s boy and have to do everything she says,” Maggart said, describing the queen as overbearing. “She’s over protective and doesn’t let me do anything. Then the more we go through it, the more mature Dauntless acts. Then at the end, he lets loose on her and tells her to shut up. She definitely doesn’t see it coming. I wouldn’t say they grow apart, I would just say he becomes more of an adult instead of taking orders from her all the time.” The story is based on the “Princess and the Pea” fairytale, with some comedic twists and subplots along the way. “She really doesn’t want Dauntless get married, so she does the best that she can to thwart any efforts from all of the other princesses who have come to apply for his hand,” Ploss said. “She makes up all of these terrible tests and asks these girls all of these impossible questions. She’s very much a hovering mom. She doesn’t have such a great relationship with her husband (King Sextimus the Silent), and I think that’s because he can’t speak. She’s large and in charge. “It’s been a great role to play. It’s a lot of fun.

Photo by Josh Sigler She says some out there things and does some crazy things in order to keep this young man from getting married.” Princess Winnifred becomes the center of attention, the 13th princess to apply for Dauntless’ hand. The Queen originally devises a test to determine Winnifred’s stamina, but later comes up with a different test during a song. “I used to be a music teacher, so for me this has been really easy,” Ploss said. “She has one song called “Sensitivity,” and that’s actually going to be the test on little Winnifred. The queen talks about how sensitive she is, and how the common person doesn’t understand, and how it’s hard to be
a queen. “In the song she comes up with the idea of doing the princess and the pea type of thing, putting the pea under the mattress. It’s been easy. You can’t miss with Judy Ward as your choir director – she’s wonderful help.” Dauntless and Winnifred don’t exactly have a love-at-firstsight moment in the story. “It starts out where he’s shy to her and she acts shy to him,” Maggart said. “Then the further we go into it the more they open up to each other, and the more stuff they find out about each other. “In one of the songs, I have to be really shy until I open up during it, saying how I love her. Then at the end
they get married, you would say.” McAfee said the performers have settled into their roles nicely during rehearsals. “Our leads are wonderful. They really are,” she said. “They’re having a lot of fun and are starting to connect with each other and tell the story really well. … We’ve got a great blend of ages and experiences.” Ploss and Maggart agree, the cast and crew have been a joy to work with. “It’s been really fun,” Maggart said. “They’re a good group of people and are a lot of fun to be around. All of them light up the room when they come in. We all have a good time and will enjoy the show.” Ploss said this is her fifth WACT performance, and thinks this is the most welcoming, wonderful theater group that she has performed with. “I love this cast. … I think it’s because we get great people here in the Wabash Community to come out and be part of this,” Ploss said. “So, this has been a great cast to work with. A lot of familiar faces from where I’ve worked other shows with before. So, it’s been really a great experience.” Ploss also feels the production appeals to all ages. “I think little kids are going to find it funny because some of the antics that go on between the Jester and the Prince and the Minstrel,” Ploss said. “I think they’re going to get a kick out of the fact that the little girl, Princess Winnifred, who is trying to win his hand, is so cute and so funny. It’s a wide range variety of ages and people that are really going to love this show.”

Lagro Community Church names interim pastor By Josh Sigler jsigler@thepaperofwabash.com Lagro Community Church has been without a full-time pastor for the past two years. Steve McCarty has been filling pulpits for various pastors for six or seven years, making him seem like the right fit to take over the reins for the church. McCarty began preaching at the church once or twice a month originally, and it blossomed into something more. “They gave me the opportunity to speak, and they really liked the way I preach,” McCarty said. “So, after a few months, I threw out the offer that I would be interested pursuing more if they were interested. “Nobody was stepping up as people were in the hospital and things like that. I don’t think there was anyone who was taking care of some of those needs. God just laid on my heart to offer to take care of some of those pastoral duties for them.” McCarty was approved Aug. 19 on an interim based. After the first of the year the full-time position will be discussed in further detail. McCarty grew up
in Rossville in a Christian home, so, church-related things have always been important to him. He received his undergraduate degree from Indiana State University in 1983. From there, he taught in the Northwestern Community Schools system, and was active in coaching. McCarty went on to pursue a master’s degree in counseling, and graduated from Purdue in 1992. In August of 1992, he began working at Northfield High School. “Counseling has always been something I’ve wanted to do,” McCarty said. “Since church has always been important to me, I have always been involved in some type church activities.” McCarty currently holds prison ministry at Miami Correction Facility, and has been involved in other Christian weekends for both adults and youth. “I’ve had the opportunity to give a lot of talks in those types of settings, so preaching behind a pulpit just came naturally to me,” McCarty said. After his Northfield days, McCarty worked as a family therapist, working with par-
ents and children through the probation system and the Division of Child Services. “(I was) trying to being families back together that had been separated,” McCarty said. “Trying to help kids get off probation. So, therapy type of things have always been something I’ve been very good at, and it’s a passion I have. “So, when the opportunity to become a pastor fulltime came up, it was something I felt God was calling me to. It fits right into what my talents and passions are.” McCarty said if it’s in the Bible, that’s what he’s going to preach. “I don’t know what word to use, but I’m going to break things down verse by verse,” he added. “Included in that is going to be a word study. Right now, McCarty is making his way through the book of James. In the book of James, it says we will encounter trials. McCarty asks “how do we define trials?” “There’s a lot of definitions we can use for trials.” He said. “So, I’m going to define that in a Christian, religious way. When James says we will face trials, he’s indicating

that’s a certainty. I’m going to break it down verse by verse, I’m going to do a word study to tie things together. I’m going to pull from other scriptures to tie things together and clarify things.” Once a month, Lagro Community Church holds a food pantry. This month it is scheduled for Sept. 15. The church has also started Sunday School class from 9 to 10 a.m. for pre-K to sixth grade. There will also be a time of fellowship with snacks and refreshments following the 10 a.m. service at 11 a.m. “The church’s goal is to make an impact on the community,” McCarty said. “My plan is to see how Lagro Community Church can help the Lagro community. If there’s anyone in the community who has any needs at all – prayer, counsel – have them contact me.” McCarty may be reached at 260-5710770.

MSD hears update from Blessings in a Backpack By Josh Sigler jsigler@thepaperofwabash.com The Metropolitan School District of Wabash County received an overview on how the Blessings in a Backpack pro-
gram is working within their school district and others during the Tuesday, Sept. 11 meeting. Blessings coordinator Megan Henderson was on hand to give the board an update on the volume of students
who benefit from the program, which gives food to children who qualify for free and reduced lunch and may otherwise not get to eat on the weekends. The program has been packing bags for three weeks now.

Blessings packs 91 bags for students at Metro North. S o u t h w o o d Elementary is receiving 81 bags for students to take home on the weekends. Sharp Creek is receiving 63 bags, while O.J. Neighbors of Wabash City Schools receives 231 bags. In total, 466 bags were packed for children. The program tries to pack 10 shelf-stable items per bag per weekend for the children. Typical items found in a bag packed by Blessings include macaroni and cheese or chicken noodle soup, two breakfast items like cereal or oatmeal, and snack items like crackers, cookies, popcorn, granola bars, gummies and fruit juice. Food allergy sensitive students are also served, with items such as corn or raisins being substituted in for allergy-sensitive

Photo by Joseph Slacian items. “On average, we have about 80 volunteers that rotate on a weekly basis,” Henderson said. “We pack on Thursday nights. It takes about 30 minutes to pack the 466 bags. We have the food set up in totes, so you make your way down with a bag and put the food in and tie it. Then we prepare boxes with the right number of bags per teacher. The boxes are
also color-coated depending on which school they go to.” Volunteers deliver the bags on Fridays, and then volunteers also pick up the boxes. “We have warehouse space donated to us, so we’re able to keep all the stacks of soup and snacks (together),” Henderson said. “Trinity Lutheran has been wonderful about donating our space for packing, as well.” On average, it takes
about $100 per school year to feed one student. Blessings relies solely on donations. “Unfortunately, food donations we’ve not been able to accept yet, just monetary,” Henderson said. “We also appreciate all the teamwork that the principals, teachers and administrators. MSD has been wonderful help, making everything run smoothly. The communication is great, and we’ve heard lots of testimonies from students that don’t have food on the weekends at home. Hearing they look forward to receiving these bags on Fridays – we’re doing this for the kids. It’s great that we have so many people who love these kids in this community and help out for them.” The school board will also vote to adopt the 2019 budget at the Sept. 25 meeting. The board also Tuesday: — Heard school improvement plan presentations from each of the district’s principals. — Approved Cornerstone Stewards of Fort Wayne to do the work on its Southwood schools wastewater treatment improvements project. The bid, with alternatives, was accepted for under $1 million. — Approved the retirement of bus driver Don Sweet. — Approved the employment of Amy Powell as a bus driver.

It has pictures from outer space, from I believe NASA and the European Space Agency, I believe is where the pictures are drawn from, plus other graphics done by [Salgado].” Around 300 grade school students will be on campus throughout the day of the concert for a variety of science activities as part of the program.

and Jr.-Sr. High School, Sharp Creek Elementary School and Huntington North High School will attend the day’s activities. “Dr. José Salgado, who is the creator of the film, ‘Universe at an Exhibition,’ he’s going to be doing a presentation for them,” Humphries said. “We’re going to have the Region 8 Digitarium here, we’re going to have liquid nitrogen ice cream … Dr. Christer Watson here on campus is going to take students to the oncampus planetarium. “There’s a lot going on that day.” Community members will have the opportunity to experience the same activities as the students beginning at 6 p.m., with the concert beginning at 7:30 p.m. “For the 80th year, we wanted to do something special,” MSO board president Joanne Case said. “Lately, [we] like to do some interdisciplinary work where it’s not just music, but it’s music, like last year, with history. This year, we thought, ‘Well, let’s see what happens when we put music and science together.’” Case said that other orchestras are incorporating
SCOTT HUMPHRIES visual elements in their concerts. “Scott Humphries found this astronomer/artist guy who makes films that are timed to match the climaxes and the rhythm and pacing of some really well-known music,” she said. “So, we thought that that would make a really good fit, especially with the theme being the universe.’” The orchestra, which includes around 50 musicians this year, will perform select pieces from “Star Trek” soundtracks before “The Universe at an Exhibition.” “I’m a huge ‘Star Trek’ nerd,” Humphries said, “and I was thinking, there are several really good ways to approach space music in a concert like this, where we’re featuring pictures literally from the universe, and I thought … that would be a good way to fill out the rest of the program.” Case credited Humphries with finding this year’s opening show. “What I was looking

for was something that was educational but also highly entertaining,” Humphries said. “We are the soundtrack – a live soundtrack – to the film. It’s half an hour – the total length is right at 32 minutes for that itself. “I was kind of looking for something that I felt like, it was something we could do as a group. It would be good for our students to learn a piece like ‘Pictures at an Exhibition,’ but then something really entertaining and accessible. The music is accessible, and certainly the film is.” Additional upcoming MSO concerts include: The groups annual Holiday Pops concert, which is at 3 p.m. Sunday, Dec. 9, in MU’s Cordier Auditorium and will feature dancers from the Wabash Valley Dance Theater; “80,” featuring Sibelius’s “Finlandia, Op. 26” and Schumann’s “Piano Concerto, Op. 54,” with MU’s Dr. Pam Haynes, pianist, which is at 3 p.m. Sunday, March 10, at the Honeywell Center

Confidence is simply believing you will succeed in what you are about to do. An athlete must believe in themselves, this is especially true in the sport of tennis. You must project a confident positive image even if the circumstances are not going your way at the moment. I believe there are two different types of confidence. There is fragile confidence, which is the kind that is easily shakable when things aren’t going your way. Then, there is resilient confidence, resilient confidence performers can take on struggle and take on losses and still believe they will find a way by adapting. Yes, there is a fine line between being “cocky” and being confident, but I am confident I am not cocky. EVERYONE DO ME THAT SPECIAL FAVOR and have a safe enjoyable week!

The North M a n c h e s t e r Congregational Christian Church would like to invite the community to a reception for Pastor JP & Michelle Freeman as they prepare for a three month Sabbatical beginning Oct. 1, 2018 leading into a new role in 2019 as Pastor Emeritus. The reception will be held on Sunday, Sept. 23 between worship services and for one half hour after last service. The Freemans were first called to the church in 2000 after a conversation with the then Deacon Chair, Bruce Pottenger. The church had been without a pastor for a time and the Freemans felt God leading a change in their ministry. “I’m a shepherd looking for a flock” Freeman said, to which Deacon Pottenger replied, “We’re a flock looking for a shepherd.” Pastor JP & Michelle were installed on Sept. 10, 2000. After 18 years of fulltime ministry, the Freemans will enjoy a time of rest, renewal and reconnecting during their Sabbatical. Beginning Jan. 1, 2019, Pastor Emeritus JP Freeman will assume his part-time responsibilities of shepherding the Senior Saints of the Congregational Christian Church.
Services are held at 9 & 10:30 a.m. on Sunday mornings. Guests are welcomed and cards may be mailed to the church. The Congregational Christian Church is located at 310 N. Walnut Street, North Manchester. Contact the church at 260-9822882 or on the web at www.brightlightccc.or g for more information about the church.

MSO kicks off 80th season instrument petting zoo,� where concertgoers may handle and play instruments provided by Quinlan and Fabish. The MSO is also offering free ukelele lessons with MSO member Brian
Kruschwitz. “We always have some kind of community youth outreach going on,� Case said. “This year, we’re trying something new with free, group ukelele lessons to show that, hey, we’ve
been around for 80 years, but we’re still current. “Ukeleles are kind of hot in music education right now, so we’re jumping on that and trying to extend that opportunity to anyone who really

Astronomy professor points to Mars as MSO concert approaches By Dr. Christer Watson Manchester University Professor of Physics
NORTH MANCHESTER — To celebrate its 80th season, M a n c h e s t e r Symphony Orchestra will perform “Science and Symphony,� an astronomy themed concert and film, on Monday, Oct. 29, at 7:30 p.m. To prepare for this event, I thought the community might enjoy reading a few short pieces about astronomy. For this first piece, I would like to discuss Mars. This fall, Mars comes out in the early-to-mid-evening. It will be either toward the southeast (if you go out earlier) or south (if you go out later). It will be the bright, reddish dot in the sky. It is brighter than any star. With a telescope, you can sometimes see the north and south poles of Mars, which are covered in ice. They really do look white, compared to the rest of the reddish surface. Mars has made the news quite a bit over the last few years, as we have discovered more about its history through careful observations with satellites and rovers on Mars’ surface. Our main goal has been to better understand whether liquid water has been important to Mars. It doesn’t appear important now; the surface is basically all dry. However, there has always been the possibility that under the surface, where the pressure is higher, liquid water (think lakes) could exist. In early August of
this year, scientists published observations of just that – liquid water under the surface of Mars. They used a satellite to aim radio waves at the ground. Radio waves can penetrate miles of soil. When radio waves traveling through soil
encounter something different, like water, some of the radio waves are reflected. Scientists measured this reflection and estimated that it was caused by a lake about 12 miles wide and one mile under the surface. So think about
water on Mars when you look up to see our red neighbor this evening. This is the first of two astronomy themed articles, culminating in M a n c h e s t e r S y m p h o n y Orchestra’s perform-
ance of “Science and Symphony� on Monday, October 29. Pre-concert activities begin at 6 p.m. (free); concert at 7:30 p.m. ($15; free for age 18 and younger). For more information, v i s i t ManchesterSymphon yOrchestra.com.

“It was a hard decision to make. We had a lot of very loyal customers and great employees. But it’s time to move on to new adventures,” said Andrew Duffy, Visionary Web’s owner. Visionary Web was founded in 1997 in Wabash. Duffy purchased the business in 2012 and shortly after that time the business went virtual, meaning it closed its physical office and all employees started to work from home. “Before closing, it
was very important to me to ensure all of our employees and customers had a path forward,” said Duffy. A former employee based in Kokomo, Jonathan Newton, landed a job with Consumer51, a business similar to Visionary Web. “After Jonathan started working for Consumer51 he emailed me to say he thought the company would make a good home for Visionary Web’s customers,” Duffy said. He contacted Consumer51’s CEO
Ari Banerjee and soon after he decided to start referring customers to the company. More than 250 Visionary Web customers made the decision to move to Consumer51. This has allowed the company to start building a presence in Indiana. In addition to Newton, after taking on the new customers Consumer51 hired former Visionary Web employee Toby Sapusek, who is
based in Wabash. “Once Consumer51 decided to establish a presence in Indiana, I knew I made the right decision to refer customers to them,” Duffy said. To help ensure their success, Duffy now serves on Consumer51’s board of advisors. “Visionary Web was a successful business,” said Duffy. “That success was made possible by strong community support, loyal customers and dedicated
employees. Because of that, I didn’t want to just walk away. I worked to make sure everyone had a path forward. With that goal achieved, Visionary Web is officially closed.” As for Duffy’s new adventure, he accepted a position with the Washington, DCbased consulting firm The Kaizen Company. He is currently stationed in Liberia where he manages a U.S. State Department-funded local security project.

Commissioners hear Dam 2 Dam concerns By David Fenker david@nmpaper.com WABASH – After another successful Dam 2 Dam Century Ride, Visit Wabash County officials are looking for ways to improve the annual cycling event from a safety standpoint. Christine Flohr, Visit Wabash County executive director of tourism, and three D2D committee members attended the Sept. 17 meeting of the county commissioners to request the county’s assistance in creating a safer ride in future years. The committee’s presentation to the commissioners focused on the county’s chip-and-seal road repairs, which they said create hazards for cyclists during the D2D. “We want to make sure we’re taking care of [the cyclists] from a community standpoint,” committee member Greg
Garner said, “providing the best atmosphere, the best physical environment with regard to safety, as we can for the bikers.” Adam Stakeman, another committee member, emphasized the size of the event (565 signed up this year), and that the route is set. “What we want to do is find out how we can better work with the county so that that scheduling can … work easier with the Dam 2 Dam route and the event, which is a set date,” Stakeman said. He explained the hazards of chip and seal for cyclists. “Chip and seal, once it’s down for a little while, is fine,” he said, “but when it’s fairly fresh – visually, being able to see it, whether it’s attached or, sometimes, where it could be an inch thick … if you hit that on a bike tire that’s a half-inch thick, the chances of
you going down are very, very high. “If you go down, that chip and seal is like a human cheese grater. It’s going to hurt.” In addition to the danger to cyclists, committee member Amy Ford noted that D2D volunteers spend several hours marking the route on the pavement – work that can be undone if county crews chip and seal over the markers. “It sounds like it’s a communication thing between [County Highway Superintendent John Martin] and your committee about when the schedule is, what we’re doing and whatever touches that path,” Chairman Brian Haupert said. “It’s good to know that.” Martin said that his chip and seal schedule is usually set in June each year. Ford noted that the D2D route is typical-
ly finalized in May, excluding detours needed due to road conditions. “I’m in favor of working with you as far the route goes,” Commissioner Scott Givens said. “If John can adjust the chip and seal … if it becomes where we need to back off a week or something, that shouldn’t be a problem.”

“We Gave Our Best: American World War II Veterans Tell Their Stories.”

Some of the sites Reusser will feature include Omaha Beach, Paris and Dachau. All of Reusser’s World War II books will be available for purchase at the book signing, as well as through Amazon. “We Gave Our Best: American World War II Veterans Tell Their Stories” is a compilation of war vignettes written by Reusser based on her personal interviews with 250 World War II veterans.

served. The books feature photographs provided by veterans during World War II, providing a historical account through the eyes of those who served. “The books give a personal feel to an important time in world history,” said Reusser, who is working on other related products such as an audio book version of her first book and eBooks.

Reusser said that as many as 10 of the 34 veterans featured in the book could attend. “The Nov. 3 booksigning party is a rare opportunity to meet these historical figures who are becoming fewer in number each year and who helped change history,” she said. “I encourage families to bring their children to meet and thank the veterans for their military service.” children to meet and thank the veterans fhildren to meet and thank the veterans for their military service.”

McIlvenny joins Dorais team By Josh Sigler Jsigler@thepaperofwabash.com A native of Northern Ireland has joined the sales staff at Dorais Chevrolet. Emmett McIlvenny was born on County Down (Downpatrick) Northern Ireland. McIlvenny moved to the United States in 2000, and called Florida home for 12 years. It is there he
met his wife, Wabash County resident Ali (Van Buskirk). They then moved to Indiana in 2011. The couple has with three children, Pierce, Stella and Charley McIlvenny, and reside in Wabash. The McIlvennys own a food truck called Emmett’s Paddy Wagon, which they run during First Fridays, Farmers Markets and other
events in downtown Wabash. And just recently, McIlvenny added another feather to his cap, joining Dorais as part of the sales team. “So, if you’re looking to trade or upgrade to your next vehicle, please come down to Dorais Chevrolet and let me take care of you,” McIlvenny said. McIlvenny and his
EMMETT MCILVENNY family came to the
United States for vacations when he was a child, and liked it so much, they decided to relocated, settling in in Florida when he was 14. McIlvenny recently managed at Twenty Restaurant, and Dorais owner Dave Dorais was a frequent customer, often striking up conversations with McIlvenny. Dorais felt McIlvenny had the
demeanor for a job in automobile sales, and offered him a job. “He said I had the personality for it, so, so far so good,” McIlvenny said. “I think I’ve sold two trucks and a car and it’s my first week here. McIlvenny never imagined he’d end up working a job in automobile sales when he first moved to America.
“When I first moved here, I’ve been in the restaurant business from Day 1,” McIlvenny said. “I worked as a dishwasher, worked in the kitchens, and I served, bartended and managed restaurants. I worked my way up to management. “Dave got me on here, and I think it’s going to be a good fit here.”
Town Council approves MPS abatement By David Fenker david@nmpaper.com
NORTH MANCHESTER — After several months’ work,
Midwest Poultry Services’s headquarters relocation is finished moving through the North Manchester town government. The egg producer first approached the county government in March, asking it to designate a recently purchased property as an economic revitalization area. MPS then requested that the town annex that property, located along the Eel River east of State Road 13, in June. At its Sept. 5 meeting, the North Manchester Town Council unanimously approved a resolution
designating the property as an economic revitalization area and granting a tax abatement to MPS, the last step in the process. “We are happy to finally bring this process to a close,” MPS Director of C o n t i n u o u s Improvement Sam
Krouse said. “It’s been a long time getting here for our family and for the company. The project will relocate MPS’s headquarters from Mentone to North Manchester, in a brand-new facility on the southern bank of the Eel between Wabash Road and SR
13. The move brings 27 existing jobs to North Manchester, with potential for up to seven new jobs in the next three to five years. “We’re looking forward to building our new headquarters in North Manchester, and we thank the town council for their

consideration of our abatement,” Krouse said. “We look forward to moving home here.” The council also approved the town’s 2019 budget, suspending the rules to approve it on first, second and third readings at the request of Clerk-Treasurer Carrie Mugford, as well as a Constitution week proclamation and agreements with Jones & Henry Engineers, Ltd., for engineering services regarding two upcoming projects: utility relocation and improvement for Precision Medical Technology’s planned expansion, coming in 2019, and extension of sewer lines on Wabash Road for MPS’s new headquarters facility. “There’s been a lot of busy growth in town with projects recently,” Town Manager Adam Penrod said.

Democrats plan Meet the Candidates night By The Paper staff NORTH MANCHESTER — Voters of all political stripes are invited to Meet the Candidates from 6 to 7:30 p.m. Monday, Sept. 24 in the Blocher Room of the North Manchester Public Library. Sponsored by
Democrats of Wabash County, the event will allow area residents to meet a number of Democratic candidates on the ballot Nov. 6, learn about their views and ask questions. Dee Moore, candidate for State Rep. District 18; Gary Snyder, candidate for
State Senate District 17; Joselyn Whitticker, candidate for state auditor, and others will attend. Also, anyone who is eligible to vote, including college students, can register at the event. Indiana’s deadline for registration is Oct. 9. “Voters owe it to
themselves to gather the facts and make informed decisions before they go to the polls,” said Chad Harris, chair of Wabash County D e m o c r a t s . “Affordable health care, strong public schools, well-paying
cerns, Harris said, it’s the only way we can truly solve problems. Harris said interest in Democrats of Wabash County has surged because there’s a feeling that regular people are not being represented. “You’d be surprised
who we are. We’re your neighbors, your co-workers, your friends,” he added. “And we welcome everyone.” Meet the Candidates is free and open to the public. Light refreshments will be served.
Trine University and the University of Saint Francis. It is 5-8 p.m. Monday, Nov. 5 at the Manchester University Fort Wayne campus, 10627 Diebold Road. It is free for students and their guests. Please register no later than Oct. 29 at https://manches-

DAR has September meeting Article provided The monthly meeting of the Frances Slocum Chapter of the Daughters of the American Revolution (DAR) took place on Tuesday, Sept. 11, at the GrandstaffHentgen Activity Room, Wabash. One special DAR guest was welcomed, Anna Johnson from Santa Margarita, Calif. The meeting opened
with the DAR ritual. Devotions centered around the 9-11 memorial given by Mary Jenet Penrod, chaplain. The September President General’s message from Ann Turner Dillon was shared by Joyce Joy. Continental Congress voted to sponsor the DAR Pathway of the Patriots, a project to plant 250 trees in groves along the
Schuylkill River from Bartram’s Garden to Valley Forge. Each tree will be named for a Patriot who helped establish this nation. The National Defender Report was on the establishment of the new National Dwight D. E i s e n h o w e r Memorial that is under construction with a tentative completion date for May 8, 2020, the 75th anniversary of “Victory in Europe Day.” The Eisenhower legacy will provide evidence and inspiration that this grand American experiment in democracy works. The Indian Committee Minute report was given by Avonne Lee Knecht. Jennifer Rose gave the Conservation Minute on “Why do we have invasive species?” The American Flag Minute stated the flag made its first trip around the world on the ship Columbia; leaving Boston on September 30, 1787, and returned on August 10, 1790; shared by Linda Thompson. Correspondence was a thank you from the Wabash Historical Museum; and a remembrance of former DAR member Marjorie Stoffer Barbara Amiss, Regent reported on
the Aug. 7 district meeting; with the chapter receiving a National Certificate for Outstanding Accomplishments in attaining Chapter Achievement Level I for 2017; and the Huntington Key Award Achievement 2017-18; and picture of the Stockdale Mill on the 2019 DAR calendar. The chapter’s entry in the national 2018 Helen Pouch Memorial Fund Classroom Grant for $500 was awarded to Gwen Mize, Manchester Jr-Sr High School, Agriculture Science and Business teacher. The program was a quiz about unknown things relating to the Constitution. The next meeting of the Frances Slocum Chapter will be on Oct. 9 at the Grandstaff-Hentgen Activity Room, Wabash. Prospective members and guests are always welcome to attend. DAR membership is open to any woman 18 years of age, who can prove lineal descent from a patriot of the American Revolution. Those having questions about their family history lineage information may contact www.dar.org or Linda Thompson at 260-563-4661 or Barbara Amiss at 260982-4376.

September is National Preparedness Month 2018 From the IDHS September is N a t i o n a l Preparedness Month, and the Indiana Department of Homeland Security (IDHS) encourages Hoosier families to take the necessary steps to make sure households are prepared for all types of disasters. “Preparation is key to managing any type of unexpected situation,” said David Hosick, communications director and chief public information officer for IDHS. “Indiana experiences severe weather events throughout the year. Learning more about how to
prepare for these threats will help keep Hoosiers safe during any emergency scenario.” N a t i o n a l Preparedness Month is the perfect opportunity for Hoosiers to learn lifesaving skills such as CPR and first aid, how to check insurance policies for common hazards as well as how to make and practice a household emergency plan. Tornadoes, fires, snow and severe flooding are all common occurrences throughout the year in Indiana. Knowing how to stay prepared for these types of situations will not only minimize the effects, but also save lives.
Some helpful safety tips to consider are: Become aware of disasters that could occur in the local area. Learn what to look for and what to avoid in each Discuss possible
emergency scenarios with family members. Include events such as fires, natural disasters and manmade disasters. Make sure everyone in the family or work place knows the steps
involved in responding to these Establish meeting locations in the event of a potential disaster, and make sure all family members and employees are aware of
Create a list of emergency contacts, and share it with family members and friends. N a t i o n a l Preparedness Month also emphasizes the importance of creat-
ing and updating an emergency disaster kit. For more information on how to craft an effective emergency kit and emergency plan, visit https://www.in. gov/dhs/3261.htm.
