Recovering from tragedy Family works to carry on following siblings’ deaths EDITOR’S NOTE: This is the first of a three-part series based on interviews with Shane and Brittany Ingle, parents of Alivia Stahl and Xzavier and Mason Ingle. The three Fulton County children were struck and killed in October while crossing the street to board their school bus. The remaining two parts of the series will appear in The Paper of Wabash County on Aug. 7 and Aug. 14. By Joseph Slacian jslacian@thepaperofwabash.com ROCHESTER – Shane Ingle sits on the oversized, bluish-gray couch in his dimly lit living room, staring off into the distance. His wife, Brittany, sits near him, her legs curled up beneath herself, her arm resting on the couch’s arm. “There are days,” Shane says in a quiet voice. “We
First of a series handle it differently. Talking about it is hard. “She,” he continues, nodding toward Brittany, “can carry on conversations.” The “it” to which he refers, is the morning of Oct. 30, 2018. It was a day that no parent wants to imagine. It was a day that changed their lives forever. It was a day that three of their children – Alivia Stahl, 9, and twins Xzavier and Mason Ingle, 6, – were struck and killed by a passing motorist as they walked across the street attempting to board a Tippecanoe Valley School Corporation school bus. A fourth student, Maverick Lowe, was critically injured in the accident. “I can talk about my kids more than Shane, and I enjoy looking at pictures,” Brittany says. “In some
cases, it’s hard, and I do have to put them down. He’s the opposite. He would rather not go out of the way to look at pictures because he knows it’s going to trigger him.” The couple agreed to sit down with Hometown Media representatives to discuss their children, their life since the accident, their work on strengthening the state’s law governing the passing of a school bus, and their work with the newly created MAXSTRONG Foundation. Shane and Brittany, together for eight years, are the parents of Xzavier and Mason. Alivia and an elder sibling, Selena, are Brittany’s from a previous marriage, and are Shane’s stepdaughters. The couple married in January. They were originally to be wed in 2018, but because of the tragedy delayed the nuptials. (continued on page 5)
Sparling crowned Festival Queen By David Brinson
Danielle Sparling became royalty when she was crowned the 2019 Wabash County Festivals Queen Friday. “I feel really fortunate,” Sparling said. “I feel like you can be confident, but never too confident, so you just have to say a little prayer and cross your fingers.” The pageant took place in the Honeywell Center’s Ford Theatre. Finishing first runnerup was Mariah Kirtlan, the 2019 4-H Queen. Southwood graduates Haley Porter, second runner-up, and Katie Jones, third runner-up, placed next. Emilly Martin finished as fourth runner-up, with Miss Friendship Dayna Dale and Director’s Award winner Franny Schannep rounding out the
court. Everyone on the court receives a scholarship to contribute towards their collegiate and life endeavors. A 2016 graduate of Southwood High School, Sparling is entering her senior year at the University of Indianapolis, where she is working towards being a nurse practitioner. “The pageant has already helped me so much in interviews for different clubs at school and job opportunities. I’m a nursing intern this summer and it helped me for that, and I know it will help me in a year when I get a job as a nurse.” During the impromptu question and answer portion of the night, Sparling was asked who she would call first if she happened to win Queen later that (continued on page xx)

pulled from the river this year. Past years there was an average of 800 tires annually from the river, he noted. With this year’s 72 added to the count, more than 5,000 tires have now been pulled from the river. He said he did a quick check, and “three of the seventytwo appeared to be contemporary tires. The others have been in there a long, long time. That’s a good sign.” Before the event began, a group meeting took place at the Paradise Spring Historical Park. There, volunteers received words of encouragement and warning from Wabash River Defender members Jen Rankin and Steve Johnson. During its first six

Beauchamp said what appeared to be the front bumper from an automobile was pulled from the river this year. Wabash River Defenders member Keith Poole presented Benny Ward and Tim Wentz, president and vice president, respec-
tively, of the Izaak Walton League in Wabash County, with the Tall Sycamore of the Wabash award. The annual honor is given to a group or individual who has actively worked to promote conservation throughout the year. Ward called the award a blessing and an honor for the organization. He said members work tirelessly to promote conservation of land and waterways. Wentz thanked the
River Defenders for the honor, saying the group was very pleased for the recognition. White the Wabash River Defenders are primarily known for the clean-up, Beauchamp said the group is involved in far more things. Plans are developing for a middle school float down the river later this year, and the group also is working on creating a new campsite, among other things.

4 firefighters get oaths of office By Joseph Slacian jslacian@thepaperofwabash.com Four Wabash Fire Department members received oaths of office on Monday when the Wabash City Council met. Scott Kirtlan was sworn in as assistant chief, while Colton Ringel and Chad Bassett were sworn in as firefighter first class and EMTs. T a n n e r Chamberlain received the oath as a probationary firefighter. In another matter, the council approved on two readings an ordinance amending the zone map for the city of Wabash. The change is for a site off of Vernon Street that is now zoned Suburban 1 and Residential 1. It will
change to General Business, which will allow Wabash Veterinary Hospital to build a new facility at the site. After approving the measure on first reading, the council suspended the rules and voted for it on a second reading. The measure must now go back to the Wabash Plan Commission for final approval. The commission approved sending the measure to the council for consideration in May. Floyd McWhirt, whose wife, Dr. Lauren McWhirt, owns Wabash Veterinary Hospital, told the Council that the current facility is getting old and is too small for their needs. They plan on buying the land from Peeble Family Farms and

McWhirt said that is still undetermined, but they would like to have the drive off of Vernon Street. Mayor Scott Long also told Council that the McWhirts plan to annex the property in the city. However, annexation of land is prohibited this year because it is the year prior to the 2020
Census. They can annex the site next year. In a final matter, the council approved residential tax abatements for two lots on Cherokee Court. The sites, a condominium and a single family home, are being developed by Biggs Indiana Properties.

The second phase of Wabash’s OwnerOccupied Rehab Program is complete, with 12 different homes around the city receiving some sort of refurbishing. That was the word Monday night, July 22, from Matt Brinkman, grant administrator for the Northeast Indiana Regional Housing P a r t n e r s h i p. Brinkman and David Gee, Region 3A’s director of technical services, spoke during a public hearing before the Wabash City Council meeting. The program, part of the Stellar Community Grant, was coordinated through the Indiana Housing and C o m m u n i t y D e v e l o p m e n t Authority, and was funded through a Housing and Urban
D e v e l o p m e n t Community Block Grant. The grant during the second phase was for $270,000, with a $27,000 match from the city, giving the program $29,700 to rehab the 12 homes. The program was available to those who were either disabled, or who were at least 55 years of age and whose total family income was 80 percent or less of the Area Median Income of Wabash County, among other requirements. Lead remediation and addresses safety and security matters are the top priorities for the program, Brinkman reminded Council. “The key word with this program is repair,” he said. “We are not allowed to use funds for new additions or major structural improvements to a home. It’s just strictly repairs.”
No one was forced to leave their home during the project, he added. The $297,000 spent was for “hard costs,” or material and labor, Gee said before outlining the various work done. Throughout the second phase, there were seven furnaces and air conditioning units installed; four water heaters; two sump pumps; two complete reroofing jobs; five roof repairs and partial roofs; four homes had new gutters and downspouts; seven homes had new entry and storm doors; one home had a new sliding door installed. In addition, there were 102 windows installed during the second phase. Of that, one home received 23 windows and another home received 20. Bad drywall was painted or repaired in nine homes, Gee continued, while handrails were
repaired or replaced in two homes, while two homes received new vinyl siding and two other homes had their exterior painted. Two bathrooms and showers were installed, and six sets of grab bars were installed in conjunction with that work. A shower seat also was installed. Other items include gutter guards, window shutters and mulch, Gee noted. No one other than Brinkman and Gee spoke during the hearing. The project is now done and a final payout claim has been filed with the IHCDA, Brinkman said. “This is just the closeout on the second phase,” Mayor Scott Long told Council. “Overall, we had 11 homes in the first phase, for a total of 23 homes.”

Recovering from tragedy “When we got married, people were like, I don’t know if it’s a good idea,” Brittany said. “Statistically, marriages don’t last through something like this. I think this has made us even closer together and stronger. “The love for our kids not only has carried my strength to do things for MAXSTRONG, but it really holds our marriage together. When he’s crying, I feel it. I don’t see him as crying; I feel the pain in me, and he can feel mine.”
Alivia: A nurturing soul Alivia was “very, very, very caring,” her mother says. “She had made such a great impact in the short nine years of her life. She was the type who would give you the shirt off her back.” The family received notes from her classmates describing the way she cared for others. One girl, new to the Mentone Elementary School fourth grade class, described how Alivia would go out of her way to make sure she had a smile on her face. “I know she was a great kid, but to hear from other people about the impact she had on them …” Brittany’s voice trails off. Not only did she care for her classmates and friends, she had a special bond with her younger twin brothers. “She was very nurturing,” Brittany says. “She sometimes forgot that I was the Mom and not her, to Mason and Xvavier.” Mason was an extremely finicky eater, and often times would pick at his food at the dinner table,
listening as the family discussed their day. “Alivia would rub his back and say, ‘Hey, Mason, eat two more bites and you can have dessert,” Brittany recalls. “Shane would be like, ‘You’re not the parent.’” Shane says, “Anything about being a parent she pretty much loved, even if it was just watching the kids or feeding the kids. “She took to parenting better than anybody.” One of her favorite television shows was “Teen Mom,” something Shane forbade her from watching. “She said, ‘I can’t wait until I’m 18 and I can catch up on all my episodes,” Brittany says, bringing a laugh from both her and Shane. Alivia also loved to sing and dance, so much so the family had a karaoke machine and microphone, and she spent hours singing and dancing in the living room. She also, both parents say, was a foodie who was interested in learning how to cook. Alivia was a top student, and just weeks before the tragic accident was named Student of the Month at Mentone Elementary. “She was a straight A student,” Brittany says. “She made the honor roll in the paper after she passed away. She was taking classes beyond the fourth grade level.” And, in keeping with her nurturing personality, she helped care for her twin brothers, both of whom were shy at the beginning of the school year. “They had the comfort of knowing Alivia was in the building,” Brittany

Aliva Stahl (from left) and her twin brothers, Mason and Xzavier Engle, in their last school photos. Photos provided said of the twins. “Alivia would walk them to class every morning. A lot of the teachers remember her for that, always walking her brothers down.” Shane interjects, “She was definitely a perfect sister. We are real conservative. We didn’t like to put our kids into a situation where they were nervous. We didn’t trust anybody. “To know that Alivia could go further than we could – as parents we could only go to the front door (of the school) – in that aspect, she carried it further for us.”
Mason & Xzavier: Daredevil twins Life for Mason and Xzavier had a rocky start. The twins were born March 29, 2012, an emergency C-section at just 29 weeks. “Xzavier’s umbilical cord was in a knot,” Shane explains. They both weighed 3 pounds, 14 ounces at birth, and at just hours old were rushed to a neo-natal care unit in Lafayette where they stayed until late May. “They were taken to Lafayette and they were in there until about their due date,” he says. “It was a long road, but they started gaining
weight and became healthy.” The twins, their parents say, were completely different. Mason, the eldest by mere seconds, was affectionate. Xzavier could be stubborn. “Mason was my cuddler,” Brittany says, a smile on her face. “He was very affectionate. He was very close to Alivia. She loved both of her brothers, but I think Mason was her favorite twin, only because she liked to nurture and stuff, and Mason loved every bit of a cuddle or hug.” The conversation moves to the kitchen. Brittany sits at the head of the table, a dark blue Dave and Buster’s coffee mug at her elbow. “Mason was such a mommy’s boy,” she says. “His personality was so shy and caring. His hugs could melt anyone’s heart. Mason had a love for life and was an inquisitive child, wanting to learn everything about the world around him. Especially when his Dad was working on cars.” Brittany leaves the room to make a telephone call. Shane, sitting at the other end of the table, says Mason wasn’t always a mommy’s boy. “Mason started out he had colic,” Shane says. “Right out of
5
the NCIU, everything was colicky, the late nights, all the walking around and trying to get him to calm down … I was the only one who knew the sequence with his legs to push out the gas. When he was a baby, he was all me, all about me. I was all about him. Xzavier was totally opposite. “Xzavier, he just wanted to be left alone,” Shane continues. “You would just lay him down on the floor, give him a toy. He would tell you when he wanted something to eat. You could leave him alone until he wanted fed. It worked out perfect, because if both of them were the type baby that Mason was, it would have been crazy.” Xzavier could be stubborn, both parents say, but he was also very funny. “You wouldn’t expect a six-year-old kid to have the type of personality to make you laugh,” Brittany says, laughing as he recalls his personality. “He was an adult comedian in a small body.” Some of his comedy came at the expense of his brother.
“Xzavier and his mom would have this game where he would act like Mason to get a hug and a kiss,” Shane recalls, a smile forming on his face. “It would make his brother mad. He’d yell, ‘That’s not Mason. I’m Mason.’ When Xzavier didn’t want a hug anymore, he’d say, ‘All right, I’m not Mason.’” The conversation returns to the dimly lit living room. Where Mason was a mommy’s boy, Xzavier was a daddy’s boy. “Even in my Mother’s Day card, the very last Mother’s Day, (Xzavier) said, ‘Happy Mother’s Day, Mommy. I love you … and Daddy, too,” she said with a smile. “I was like, you really couldn’t even get me my own card.” The twins liked to watch Shane build things around the house, and occasionally liked to do work on their own. “We bought this lit-
tle car, a Power Wheels,” Brittany said. “Shane had a car he was always working on.” The boys spent the first day riding around the yard in the toy car. “The next day, they got into Shane’s tools, jacked up the little Power Wheels on his jack, and literally took the car apart,” she continued. “It was just so cute and showed how your kids really watched you.” They enjoyed watching him work, Shane notes, unless something more fun came along, like riding their bicycles. He remembers the boys enjoying riding from the front of the house, through the side yard building up speed, then attempting to use a mulch pile in the back as a jump ramp. “The boys were definitely daredevils,” Brittany said.

Hero banners to be hung in late August By The Paper staff
The Hometown Hero Banners, originally projected to be installed in downtown Wabash by the first Friday of August, will now be installed closer to the end of August, pending the completion of the construction project on South Wabash Street. The Hometown Hero Banner series is a collaboration between Visit Wabash County and Mayor
Scott Long that honors Wabash County heroes who have served or are currently serving in the U.S. Army, U.S. Navy, U.S. Marines, U.S. Air Force, U.S. Coast Guard, fire department, police department, or sheriff ’s department. The banners will hang throughout downtown Wabash on all of the new lampposts for two years before being returned to the purchaser. The initial projected installation date was
by Aug. 2; however, because of the slight delay in the Wabash St. construction project, the banners should hopefully all be installed by the end of August. “The good news is that the installation of the Hometown Hero Banners signifies the completion of the South Wabash St. project,” said Christine Flohr, executive director of tourism for Visit Wabash County. “The banners will be hung alphabetically by last
name to make them easier to locate. They will contribute to the aesthetics of downtown while paying homage to those who are serving or have served in Wabash County. We are thrilled with how they turned out.” Those who purchased a Hometown Hero Banner and have additional questions, please call Visit Wabash County at (260) 563-7171 or email tourism@visitwabashcounty.com.

Pageant pened to win Queen later that night. Quickly, she replied that she was blessed to say everyone she would want to call was there in-person, supporting her. Her parents, Dan and Michelle, sat with the other 12 people rooting her on. Danielle called them “her team.” “We’re excited for her, she’s worked really hard,” Mrs. Sparling said. “We’ve been doing these for a while.” As her parents, they have watched firsthand as Danielle matured and improved on stage. “She’s a lot more confident,” Sparling said. “That’s definitely the first thing I’d say. She’s more confident in everything she does.” Another person in the room excited to see Danielle win was 2018 Festivals Queen Alex Peterson. “Alex has been one of my best friends, so to get the crown from her is a really cool

experience,” Sparling said. Sparling and Peterson danced together growing up but grew even closer through pageant rehearsals and court appearances. “It makes me so excited,” Peterson said. “Danielle and I have been doing this for the last three years, we became really close during this pageant. It is so exciting. We’re rooting for each other and so happy when one of us succeeds.” Kirtlan, who won the 4-H pageant just two weeks ago, is looking forward to serving on yet another court. “It’s an amazing honor to get to come back and be with these girls. This pageant’s a different atmosphere than the 4-H pageant,” Kirtlan said. “We don’t have the 4-H backing it up, so we have all different backgrounds, not just 4-H girls, and I love getting to meet with them and share
those lifestyles.” Kirtlan, a Northfield graduate, attends Indiana University Fort Wayne and is majoring in nursing. Haley Porter plans to study pre-med or nursing at IU Kokomo this fall. Jones also attends IU Kokomo, where she is pursuing business marketing, while also interning for Visit Wabash County. Martin, an upcoming freshman at Indiana Wesleyan University, will major in nursing and minor in ministry. This year’s theme was “Surf,” and opened with the contestants dancing to the Beach Boys’ “Good Vibrations.” During intermission, Kaia Holsman performed an expressive dance, followed by a performance from the “Oldies but Goodies Singing Group.” The pageant was emceed by Roderick Schram and judged by Brenda Alexander, Laura Mann and Leanne Senter.

Voted “Best Garage Door Company in Wabash County” in The Paper of Wabash County 2019 Readers Choice
By Joseph Slacian jslacian@thepaperofwabash.com Ground was broken Tuesday morning, July 23, for the new Hampton Inn in Wabash. The new, 91-room facility, is expected to be open in July 2020. Mayor Scott Long and Mitesh Patel, owner associate for Rahee Hospitality, turned the dirt at the site while representatives from Rahee and the city looked on. The hotel will be located northwest of State Road 15 and Wedcor Avenue, just north of U.S. 24. “This is a fantastic project for our community,” Long said before the ceremony. “The investment of Rahee Hospitality continues. We’re very appreciative of them coming to Wabash to build again.” The firm also owns the Holiday Inn Express, which opened here in 1998. Long said city officials hope the location of the hotel will spur some other business development in the area. Rahee official-

Photo by Joseph Slacian sreached out to city officials about a year ago, according to Keith Gillenwater, President and CEO of Grow Wabash County. “Having an additional 91 rooms will help support the hospitality industry and the visitors who come in, they’re such an important part of the community’s economy,” Gillenwater said. Gillenwater and Long visited with Rahee officials in Ohio to see the type of building they had planned for Wabash. “It’s going to be a good fit,” Gillenwater said. “It certainly will add a lot to the com-
munity.” Patel thanked those in attendance, as well as Long and Gillenwater for helping the firm throughout the process. “We love you, Wabash,” he said. “Here’s to 20 plus more years.” Long, referring to the various road projects around the city, joked that the location of the hotel is “a great location, because I don’t have any roads closed out here … yet.” The city is coordinating with the Indiana Department of Transportation, which will repave
State Road 15 from State Road 16 south through the city. “At that time, we’re going to signal this intersection out here, which will benefit everyone in this area, the factories, Walmart, the hotel and any other businesses,” Long continued. “It takes a lot of coordination, well in advance to when we want to do that. It will make this intersection a lot safer, and will make it a lot safer south of here because we’re going to slow traffic down.” About a dozen people from the community, as well as Rahee
officials and other firms working on the project were on hand for the ceremony. Among those in attendance was Christine Flohr, executive director of tourism for Visit Wabash County. “The addition of the new Hampton Inn’s 91 rooms will leverage our ability to upsell our county as a convention location,” she said. “The investment is an excellent reflection of the city’s commitment to attracting new businesses while appealing to the growing tourism market.”
Urbana area had many schools The first school of Urbana was built in 1856. Prior to this, students met in various locations including a log building which stood just West of town on the Jake Miller farm next to the present John Gaston residence. In 1910, a new building was constructed on Main Street (State Road 13) and in 1928 it was remodeled to have 12 grades. The Urbana school held classes from first grade thru 12th until 1962 when the new Northfield High School was built. The old Urbana High School continued as an elementary school until 1979 when Sharp Creek Elementary was built.

He married Betty Keith on Dec. 24, 1942. They had 54 years together until she preceded him in death on Feb. 14, 1997. He was also preceded in death by one sister and four brothers. Norman graduated from Wabash High School in 1941. He served in the United States Army during World War II. He worked for the railroad, with his brother, Scrap, building homes, and he retired from Fisher Body (General Motors) in Marion, after 31 years in June of 1986. He loved tinkering in his garage, animals (Scamp the great camping dog, Sara, and Pepe), traveling, and going camping with his family and friends. He ended up moving to Texas as a result of traveling to a warmer location during Indiana winters and continued to travel there after Betty’s death until he met Eva Palacios. It was then that they married on July 6, 2002, and he moved permanently to a warmer climate. She survives in Kingsville, Texas. Surviving are their three children, Doralie Hull of Woodbury, Tenn., David Forbes of Marion, and Doreen Burns of Huntington, Indiana; and his sister Dorothy Henderson of Wabash. Also surviving are his five grandchildren, Jodi Kelch of Woodbury, Tenn.; Jeff Cruz of Smyrna, Tenn.; Cathy Maitlen of Green Bay, Wis.; Jason Forbes of Marion; and Kim Burns of Huntington. He also has several greatgrandchildren: Kristen Hurst, Nichole Knight, Scotty Cruz, Brittany Harmon, CJ Cruz, Justen Forbes, Freddie Horine and Jessica Horine of Alabama. He also has many great-great-grandchildren. Norman was laid to rest at the Rio Grande Valley State Veterans Cemetery in Mission, Texas, on July 22, 2019. We thank him and are forever grateful for his service during World War II in the U.S. Army. He is loved and will be missed by all his family and friends. A memorial for Norm will be held Sunday, Aug. 4, 2019 from 2-5 p.m. at the LaFontaine Methodist Church at 2 W. Kendall St. in LaFontaine.

Crystal to release new album in Sept.
NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Wabash’s own Crystal Gayle will release of her first new album in nearly 16 years, “You Don’t Know Me.” The release will be available everywhere Sept. 6, with a pre-sale beginning Aug. 9, the new album is being released by Southpaw Musical Productions, and distributed by BFD in partnership with The Orchard. Co-produced, recorded and mixed by Crystal’s son Christos Gatzimos, “You Don’t Know Me” is a collection that finds the acclaimed stylist exploring the songs of such country legends as George Jones, Patsy Cline, Buck Owens and Eddy Arnold. The album might come as a surprise to those who associate Crystal with an uptown sound that made her a star on both country and adult-contemporary pop charts. But she has known this repertoire of hardcore country standards all her life. “This wasn’t a stretch at all,” Crystal said. “This project is a labor of love that my son, Christos, and I produced together. It is filled with country classics that I grew up singing. They are very much a part of my history and I’ve been wanting to do this for a long time. I feel very lucky to have known and worked with many of the artists who had the original hits.” Each of the selections was chosen because it played a role in her musical development. Two of them point to the importance that her family had in bringing her to fame. The album’s opening track is “Ribbon Of Darkness,” a song originally written by
Gordon Lightfoot. Originally released in 1965 as a single by Marty Robbins, it became his eleventh #1 hit. The song holds a special place in Crystal’s heart because it was the first song she performed at her Grand Ole Opry debut. Her sister, Loretta
Lynn, was sick and unable to perform. The album’s closing track is “Put It Off Until Tomorrow” which brings Crystal together with Loretta and another sister, Peggy Sue Wright, for a highly anticipated first-ever recorded trio of them together.

Honeywell adds 2 shows Tickets are now on sale for two shows that have been added to the entertainment roster at the Honeywell Center — country and gospel singer Josh Turner and the holiday spectacular Mannheim Steamroller. Josh Turner will appear on Friday, Oct. 11, at 7:30 p.m. Turner’s rich, deep voice and distinctive style has garnered hits like “Your Man,” “Why Don’t We Just Dance,” and “Firecracker.” Growing up in the church, Turner founded and sang bass in a gospel quar-
tet called Thankful Hearts. His career got a boost in 2001 during his debut on the Grand Ole Opry when he sang “Long Black Train.” He received a standing ovation and sang it again for an encore. Corporate sponsorship for the Ford Theater concert is provided by Big R. Tickets are $38, $54 and $100. M a n n h e i m Steamroller will appear on Thursday, Dec. 19, for two performances at 3 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. The band has sold more than 40 million albums, with 28 mil-
lion in the Christmas genre. Their holiday CDs have become synonymous with Christmas and occupy top positions on Billboard’s Seasonal Chart every year. In addition to being a holiday tradition for many families, the Mannheim Christmas Tour regularly attracts repeat attendance from multi-generational guests, and is one of the longestrunning tours in the music industry. Chip Davis, founder and creator of M a n n h e i m Steamroller, makes innovative music inspired by the
sounds of another age. In 1984, he released his first Christmas album which revolutionized holiday music. He went on to become the N o . 1 - s e l l i n g Christmas recording artist of all time. Corporate sponsorship for the Wabash performance is provided by The Ford Meter Box Company, Inc. Tickets are $38, $52, and $65. Tickets may be purchased online at www.honeywellcenter.org or by calling the Honeywell Box Office at 260-563-1102.

Tips for grabbing the best deals on school clothes Children and parents often look forward to the dawn of a new school year. But before the first homeroom session can take place, parents may need to take their students clothes shopping. According to a 2018 survey by Deloitte, parents spend an average of $510 per household on apparel, school supplies, electronic gadgets, and other items for their kids’ return to school. The back-to-school season runs from July through September, during which American households alone spend $27.6 billion, which is second only to the holiday season in regard to the most lucrative times for retailers. Apparel is a large part of back-toschool shopping. Many parents find they need to outfit their kids with a new wardrobes each year. Jeans and leggings that fit like a glove in June may only reach mid-calf by Labor Day. To make the shopping process less harried and more productive, parents can employ these strategies. Take inventory Go through kids’ wardrobes and see what can be salvaged and what might need to go. This is the perfect opportunity to put aside gently used, outgrown items that may be
passed on to someone else who can use them. Be sure to make a list of any items that the school requires, particularly in regard to uniforms or dress codes. By knowing what’s in stock in the closet, you’ll have a clear idea of what you need to buy. Check for tax-free discounts Some states or cities offer tax-free or discount shopping incentives, which can add up to considerable savings. It may be well worth the effort to stock up on necessities during these times. Sign up for loyalty programs If yours is a child who prefers certain brands, sign up early in the year for such brands’ loyalty clubs. For example, the popular retailer Hollister has Club Cali that, with each
Learn the ropes to get back-to-school clothing deals. purchase, grants points toward discounts. Plus, you may be privy to sale adver tisements before the general public. Get enough to get by While certain clothing sales happen between July and August, oftentimes the real savings begin in October, according to the budgeting
resource Money Crashers. Wait until that time to buy the bulk of kids’ school clothes. After all, the first weeks of school are usually warm, and summer clothing will still suffice with a few new items thrown in to freshen up wardrobes. Invest in quality shoes Sneakers and other shoes can be expensive. However,
investing in quality brands can help you avoid having to buy shoes frequently. Watch for shoe sales and stock up on coupons. Many stores offer “buyone, get-one half off ” during the back-toschool season. In addition to these tips, save more by shopping overstock stores or warehouse clubs for name-brand items at lower prices.

How students can prepare for a coming sports season
Participation in sports can be an important component of a student’s overall school experience. So it should come as no surprise that the number of participants in high school sports increased for the 29th consecutive year in 2017-18, according to the annual High School Athletics Participation Survey conducted by the National Federation of State High School Associations. Students may have various reasons for joining school-sanctioned sports teams, including engaging in physical exercise, boosting their résumés with extracurricular activities and finding
shared interests with fellow students. School sports provide this and more. Of course, participation in scholastic sports first involves signing up for the activity. To ensure they’re eligible to participate in scholastic sports, students typically have to follow some key steps. • Physical examination: A doctor will have to provide medical clearance, confirming a student is healthy enough to play. Check with the school athletic director or school nurse regarding the “expiration date” of a physical. Students are often required to get a physical each year, though some might
need to get one before each season. Pediatricians and wellness clinics often get inundated with requests to fill out physical forms prior to sports seasons. So contact physicians well in advance of the start of the season to ensure that the physical can be completed and the forms handed in on time. • Health waivers: Doctors alone are not responsible for giving the okay to participate in sports. Before a child can be deemed eligible, parents often
have to fill out a detailed health history for their children, listing any possible allergies or conditions that may affect participation. They also may have to provide a list of current immunizations and eye exam results. • Enrollment: Schools may have different sign-up routes for the various sports seasons. Schools generally offer fall, winter and spring sports. Students may need to sign up on an official list with the athletic director or coach.
Other schools may utilize a digital system for enrollments. Schools typically publicize how students can get involved with sports and provide the steps for signing up. • Contact with coach: Once enrolled, students may have to
connect with the coach in a predetermined way. Various apps and tools can be used. Email is always a popular method for contacting the team, but apps like TeamSnap or Remind are other ways coaches may send out blast announcements
about practices, meets, games, and more. Sports can be a great way for students to develop mentally, physically and socially. To participate in sports, student-athletes must follow the right steps for enrollment.

Did you know? Many stores employ “loss leaders” during the back-toschool shopping rush. Essentially, loss leaders are products sold at a loss to attract customers into the store. Retailers hope shoppers will be tempted by a “penny deal” or another steep discount and then stick around, ultimately
purchasing full-price items. Shoppers can use loss leaders to their advantage. Those looking to save on school supplies should watch the circulars and commercials for these barely break-even deals and stock up on loss leaders, according to the savvy shoppers at The Krazy Coupon Lady.
This may require shopping for supplies over the course of a few days, as stores may feature different loss leaders during the week. By doing so, at the end of the week, shoppers may end up with much of their school supplies at quite the discount.

Did you know? Scholastic sports are broken up into various seasons for the school. Depending on what the athlete desires, he or she will have to wait until that particular season (fall, winter or spring) to participate in the
activity of his or her choice. Many schools offer these athletics during the winter months: spirit, dance, wrestling, basketball, and swimming/diving; however, depending on geography and climate, there may
be some alterations to the schedule. Winter sports may begin in midNovember to December, and the season may run about two months. Prospective athletes would be wise to keep their eyes open
several months in advance of the season for sign-up dates, as schools often require try-outs or participation interest, as well as completed physical examination forms well before the season starts.

Flat Belly Food!
THE PAPER
July 31, 2019
Benefit your belly – and make it flatter too – by eating foods that are scientifically proven to beat bloat and give you lasting weight loss, like this delightful dish. Photo and recipes provided by Manuel Villacorta, MS, RD/HCI Books
In today’s world where it has become increasingly difficult to distinguish fact from fiction and truth from lie, I immediately questioned the title of the book, “Flat Belly 365” (Jan 2018) and chalked it up to just another gimmick, then I cracked it open. Pleasantly surprised, I discovered that this book is not a murky meandering of mishmash or malarkey. Rather, it is filled with factual, scientifically proven ways to shed stubborn pounds and keep them off, especially for weight around the midsection, and while doing so, improve your health as well! The secret - spoiler alert - it offers to beating the bloat and enjoying lasting weight loss it reveals is simply to give yourself a healthy gut! A healthy gut, which occurs when it is fueled by super foods, anti-inflammatory fats, and prebiotic and probiotic foods, is what is at the heart of balancing our appetites, reducing our cravings, regulating blood sugar, fighting inflammation and fueling our body with key nutrients that in turn provide us with optimal health. Written by award-winning dietician Manuel Villacorta, MS, RD, who is the author of three previous books - Eating Free, Peruvian Power Foods and Whole Body Reboot: The Peruvian Super foods diet and a health contributor for The Huffington Post. This diet book, which has its own cookbook buried inside, offers beautiful, full-color photos for numerous delicious recipes like Fig Jicama Salad, Beef Bone Soup, Chocolate Smoothie Bowl and California Avocado Gazpacho that will have your mouth watering as your excess weight comes off ! What I especially like about this book is that it offers meal plans that suit all four seasons and also all eating styles including vegetarian and vegan. The program begins with an initial "reboot,” which is a 7-day kick start plan to rev your body into optimal fat-burning, which clients attest helped them lose weight and inches off their waistlines, get better sleep and gain renewed energy levels in just the very first week of the plan, which motivates this gal to give it a go! Who doesn’t want to feel great and gain a flatter belly by eating? This gut-friendly, super-food plan Laura Kurella to shed pounds, fight inflammation and feel great all year long will show you how! Here now is a savory sampling from the author to get you goingENJOY!
California Avocado Gazpacho
Serving Size: 11⁄2 cups F Servings: 4 Vegan, Gluten Free California avocados are a delicious, nutritious super fruit that are locally and responsibly grown on nearly 4,000 family farms throughout central and southern California. Summer is the peak season for this super food that adds a rich, creamy flavor to this refreshing gazpacho.
Ingredients 1 medium cucumber, peeled and chopped ½ medium red onion, chopped 1 pound yellow cherry tomatoes 1 ripe California avocado, seeded and peeled 1 green bell pepper, chopped 1/4 cup parsley, chopped 1/2 cup vegetable stock 1/4 cup white wine vinegar 1 teaspoon garlic, minced 1 tablespoon aji amarillo or other chili paste 1 tablespoon lime juice 1 1/2 teaspoons sea salt
Directions Place all the ingredients in a blender. Puree until they reach the desired consistency. 1) Refrigerate for 1 hour before serving to allow the flavors to marinate. 2) California avocados contribute good fats, such as monounsaturated fats, to your diet. Good fats do not raise LDL “bad” cholesterol levels, and monounsaturated fats are known to be anti-inflammatory. Per Serving: Kcal 101, Protein 3 g, Carb 12 g, Fat 6 g, Sodium 792 mg, Dietary Fiber 4g, Daily Values: Fiber 15%, Vitamin C 59%, Vitamin A 5%, Vitamin D 0%, Potassium 14%, Calcium 3%, Iron 8%
Chicken Albondigas Soup Serving Size: 2 cups F Servings: 4 Gluten Free In Latin culture, albondigas means meatballs. Typically, albondigas are something that your grandmother makes. This easy recipe brings together f flavors from Latin America and the United States from cilantro to California Avocado Ingredients for the Meatballs 1 pound ground chicken 3/4 cup cooked brown rice (¼ cup dry) 1/4 cup red onion, diced
1/4 cup green bell pepper, diced 1/2 teaspoon sea salt 1/4 teaspoon black pepper Ingredients for the Soup 8 cups low sodium chicken broth 1/2 green bell pepper, sliced 1/2 red onion, sliced 3 celery stalks, sliced 1 cup carrots, sliced 1/2 cup fresh cilantro, chopped 1 teaspoon sea salt 1/2 teaspoon black pepper 1 1/3 ripe California avocado, sliced A one-third serving size of heart-healthy California Avocados contribute nearly twenty vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients, including 11 percent of the Daily Value (DV) fiber, 10 percent DV folate, and 6 percent DV vitamin E and potassium. Directions For the meatballs In a medium bowl, add the ground chicken, rice, onion, diced bell pepper, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly and shape into eight 2¼-oz meatballs with a 2inch diameter. 1) In a medium-sized pot, pour in the chicken broth and bring to a boil on medium-high heat. Add the chicken and cook for 10 minutes. 2) Add the bell pepper, onion, celery, carrots, cilantro, salt, and black pepper. Cook for 5 minutes or until the vegetables are tender. 3) Serve soup with avocado on top. 4) Note: In Latin culture, we squeeze lime juice on everything to bring out the flavors. This soup goes well with a squeeze or two. Give it a try.
Warm Candied Onion Spinach Salad Serving Size: 1 salad F Servings: 1 Vegan, Gluten Free Making a warm salad may sound odd, but the result is delicious. Cooking the onions with the balsamic really makes the sweetness of this salad come alive. The walnuts also lend their nutty flavor and brain-boosting goodness. 2 teaspoons olive oil 1 medium red onion, cut into ½-inch slices 8 walnut halves (1 ounce), roughly chopped 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar 1/2 teaspoon sea salt
6 basil leaves, cut into ribbons 3 cups baby spinach 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
Directions Heat a medium-sized sauté pan on medium heat for 1 minute. Place the olive oil and onions in the pan and sauté for about 3 minutes, or until the onions become translucent. 1) Add the walnuts and cook for an additional 2 minutes. 2) Add the balsamic vinegar and salt and lower to a medium low heat. Cook for 2 minutes. Add the basil, stir, and set aside. 3) In a separate bowl, mix the sp 4) inach and cherry tomatoes together. Add the warm vegetables and mix well. Spinach is a great source of the carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin, two potent anti-inflammatory phytonutrients. Spinach is also packed with magnesium, iron, vitamin K, vitamin E, vitamin A, calcium, and potassium.
