Proudly Serving Wabash County Since 1977

Ag Resolutions breaks ground on new facility in Wabash Business Complex Hettmansperger hopes to finish construction by October by Brent Swan County and local government officials joined Advanced Ag Resources President B o b b y Hettmansperger during a groundbreaking ceremony April 2 at the new location in the Wabash Business Complex near the intersection of U.S. 24 and SR 13, Wabash. The future facility, a distribution center and office area, will encompass 75,000 sq. ft. “It will be the Brodbeck Seeds distribution point and office building,” Hettmansperger said. “It’ll be Brodbeck Seed’s headquarters, just like the current facility, but with much more room.” Hettmansperger will continue to utilize the current Brodbecks location, as bagging and conditioning will still take place there. In all reality, however, the move will be an entire relocation. In moving to the Business Complex, Hettmansperger initially purchased 20 acres of land on which the warehouse will stand. In addition to

AG RESOLUTIONS held a groundbreaking ceremony April 2 at the Wabash Business Complex where construction has begun on a 20-acre, 75,000 sq. ft. warehouse and office building. The building will become the new headquarters of Brodbeck Seeds and is scheduled for completion in October. Pictured are (from left) Jim Engelberth, Brodbeck Seeds general manager, City of Wabash Mayor Bob Vanlandingham, Bobby Hettmansperger, Ag Resolutions president, Dan Eads, Felderman Design-Build, and Wabash County Commissioners Barry Eppley and Brian Haupert.

happen within the next five years. On the back portion of the property, with those 10 acres available, there is an opportunity for me to install a soybean conditioning plant here. Soybean sales are expected to increase tremendously over the next five years as well.” At the new location, Eads and Son will be

responsible for the site prep work, while Dan Eads, Felderman Design, is responsible for the building itself. “It makes things a lot easier when you deal locally whenever you c a n , ” Hettmansperger said. “Both of these guys are from around the Wabash area and have (continued on page 6)

AN ARCHETECTURAL RENDERING of the planned 75,000 sq. ft. warehouse Brodbeck Seeds will call home in the Wabash Business Complex. With the move, Brodbecks will relocate its administrative staff and distribution center to the new location, just north of the intersection of SR 13 and U.S. 24. (image provided)

Honeywell Center Gym becomes Legacy Hall by Danielle Swan DSmith @thepaperofwabash.com

COSMETIC CHANGES to what formerly served as the gymnasium at the Honeywell Center preceded a change in the name of the space. The room is now referred to as Legacy Hall, which acknowledges the years of memories formed in the room as well as Mr. Honeywell’s legacy to the Honeywell Center and the community as a whole.

After serving as the gymnasium since 1947, the Honeywell Center Gym has now become a multipurpose space entitled Legacy Hall. The transition first began three years ago when the YMCA programming moved out of the Honeywell Center to their brand new, state-of-the-art facility. While it has always held the title “gymnasium” or “gymatorium”, the space has

encompassed a wide range of activities, and holds different memories for those who attended these activities. “We had concerts there, but then it was also the gymnasium for the county schools when they didn’t have their own gymnasiums so there is a lot of history there,” said Shannon Shrider, hospitality manager for the Honeywell Center. “A lot of people in the community have memories of playing their high school county tourneys for

When the YMCA opened, the H o n e y w e l l Foundation’s Board of Directors recognized there was no longer a need to have a facility for sporting events. Lines were removed from the floor, and basketball goals and scoreboards were detached from the (continued on page 7)

Center for History at North Manchester announces opening

The Center for History at North M a n c h e s t e r announces it’s opening for 2012. Located at 122 E. Main St., Downtown North Manchester, the Center houses over 23,000 historical artifacts, many of which are on display. Occupying the former O p p e n h e i m Department Store building gives the Center large display windows in which to share North Manchester’s past. Currently on display is an exhibit of the Middle Eel River Watershed. The intention of the display at the Center for History is to introduce the public to the Middle Eel River Watershed Initiative. The Initiative is a collaborative community wide effort to improve the water quality, enhance recreation and promote conservation of natural resources in the Middle Eel River.

Partners include Manchester College, Indiana Department of Environmental Management, North Manchester Center for History, North Manchester Rotary, Wabash County Soil and Water Conservation District and Natural R e s o u r c e s Conservation Service, the Indiana Department of Natural Resources and many more. Dr. Jerry Sweeten, professor of biology at Manchester College, has been monitoring the water quality in the Middle Eel River for three years, as well as performing annual wildlife habitat analysis, fish surveys and freshwater mussel surveys. Water quality analysis has identified suspended sediment, excessive nutrients (phosphorus and nitrogen), and E. coli as the main pollutants in the middle section of the Eel River. Efforts to improve

water quality focuses on education of the community as well as a cost-share program which helps land owners implement Best M a n a g e m e n t Practices that are known to improve water quality. Practices such as cover crops, no-till farming and nutrient management are examples of Best M a n a g e m e n t Practices. The educational component provides an opportunity for the community to learn more about the river, the organisms that call the river home, and the work we do on the river through annual canoe floats and river cleanups. In addition to improving water quality for human use, the cost-share program and educational activities serve to improve the habitat and water quality necessary to support a diverse wildlife population, both on the land and in the water.

The exhibit of animals displayed in the front window is to demonstrate the diversity of species that either live, or have historically lived in and around the middle Eel River. We have identified two very important and rare fish species in the Eel River, the Eastern Sand Darter (Indiana Species of Concern) and the Greater Redhorse (State Endangered Species), along with the state endangered Rabbitsfoot mussel. The Eel River is a beautiful and valuable natural resource that deserves our respect and protection. For more information or to sign up for the canoe float or river clean-up, please contact Terri Michaelis, Watershed coordinator, at 260982-5101 or tmmichaelis@manchester.edu. The hours for the Center for History are weekdays, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.

While ideally every day should be a day without sexual violence, statistics tell us that sexual violence is occurring at alarming numbers. Indiana has the second highest rate in the nation of females who were physically forced to have sexual intercourse, according to the 2009 Youth Risk Behavior Survey (YRSB). The recent National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survey estimated that 505,000 women in Indiana have experienced rape within their lifetime, a figure that translates to roughly 20 percent or one in every five women. The YRSB and NIPSVS are both from the Center for Disease Control. And this is just not a female issue or crime the same report showed that one in 71 men have been raped at some point in their lives. So while it may seem unnecessary to declare a specific day in April to focus on sexual violence, unless each one of us

commit to stopping sexual violence in our homes and in our communities, the incidence of sexual violence are likely to continue to escalate. Sexual violence is one of the most pervasive and serious public issues in this country. Over 50 percent of women who are raped in the U.S. are raped by a current or former partner, and nearly 1 in 2 women (44.6 percent) and 1 in 5 men (22.2 percent) experience sexual violence other than rape throughout their lifetime, according to the NIPSVS. Most perpetrators of sexual violence abuse someone that they know, often times using their positions of trust and authority in order to commit the crime. It is much more unlikely to be a stranger assault than a family member, intimate partner or acquaintance. So as you read this editorial, please take a few moments to think about what you can do to reduce your risk of sexual violence and the risk of your loved ones from being victimized. It might be educat-

ing your children about signs of sexual violence or it might be taking a hard look at your own actions and making sure you are appropriate in your relationships and even in your messages to others. You can become educated about the services offered in Grant County by various organizations that are part of the Mayor’s Commission Against Domestic Violence. And you can make a financial commitment by purchasing the ‘End Violence Together’ license plate is now available at your local Bureau of Motor Vehicles Office. This license plate will generate funding to benefit programs throughout Indiana (such as Hands of Hope, a division of Family Service Society, Inc.) Services for victims of sexual assault are essential. We know from other research (such as the Adverse C h i l d h o o d Experiences, or ACE, S t u d y , w w w. a c e s t u dy. o r g ) that child sexual abuse and other traumatic events can result in serious longterm physical and

mental health problems. And NISVS confirms what previous studies have also shown - that women who were sexually abused as minors are at significantly increased risk of being raped again as adults. So before you discount the designation of April 3 as A Day without Sexual Violence, think about the statistics you have read, the prevalence of the crime and how you today can make a difference in the lives of someone who may have been victimized, or who may be a target of a future assault. If we guard ourselves against sexual violence and protect our children and families from the possibility of being a victim maybe every day can be “A Day without Sexual Violence”. To learn more, contact Linda Wilk, Hands of Hope director, at lwilk@famservices.com or Amanda Jones, Hands of Hope community education coordinator, at ajones@famservices.c om.

The second inmate who escaped from the Wabash County Jail on March 17 is in custody. Chance Hanaway surren-

dered himself to officers at the Wabash County Jail at approximately 10:10 p.m. on March 27. Hanaway surrendered without incident. Hanaway along with Aaron Perry escaped from the Wabash County Jail on March 17. Perry was taken into custody on March 25. This culminates a 10day manhunt, where many law enforcement agencies, including the U.S. Marshal’s Fugitive Task Force Unit, assisted the Wabash County Sheriff ’s Department in following leads and interviewing known associates of both individuals. The investigation is still ongoing and details into the activities of both since the escape, is unknown at this time.

Wabash County REMC holds 76th annual meeting

CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER ROB PEARSON delivers the CEO’s report to the membership at the 76th Annual Meeting for Wabash County REMC. (photo provided)

Nearly 800 people attended the 76th Annual Meeting, held March 26 in the Honeywell Ford Theater. In his speech to the members, Board President Steven Byerly focused on the future of the REMC as well as continued commitment to the members and community the REMC serves. Byerly said, “We live in the present, but prepare for the future. We consider all areas of the co-op for improvement and efficiency while maintaining our local pres-

ence to serve you, our members.” Rob Pearson, chief executive officer (CEO), focused on two of the seven cooperative principles: Concern for Community and Cooperation Among Cooperatives and stated, “It is our commitment to the community and our ability to work with and share services with other local cooperatives that will allow us to maintain our high level of reliability and outstanding member service going into the future.”

During the business meeting, the membership elected two directors to serve three-year terms on the board of directors. D’Ann Stouffer was elected to represent district five, and Gene Bowman was elected to represent district seven. Again this year, Wabash County REMC offered $500 scholarships. Names were randomly drawn from the 117 entrants. This year’s winners include: Ericka Easterday, Rachael Godfroy, Chance Densford, Andrew

Frieden, Mindy Metz, Bryan Azbell, Heather Davenport, Alexa Trump, Austin Leming, Garrett Coffman, Jordan Eckman, Andrew Glasscock, Dylan Pogue, Jentri Cripe, Collin Huston, Chad Glasscock, Taylor Jaynes, Meagan Chittick, Nathan Baer and Nathan Richardson. Throughout the meeting, drawings for cash awards were con-

ducted. The $200 grand prize winner was Teresa Miller. The evening’s entertainment was provided by Spike and the Bulldogs. Wabash County REMC Board of Director officers for the coming year will be: Steven Byerly, president; D’Ann Stouffer, vice president; Gene Bowman, secretary, and Max Highley, assistant secretary.

New Hands of Hope Community Education Coordinator for Wabash County to speak about safe dating at The Access

The Access Youth Center’s Choices program for teens is now underway, and Hands of Hope will offer three weeks of upcoming programming about safe dating. Amanda Jones, the new community education coordinator for Wabash County, will present for three weeks after spring break, beginning on April 10 and continuing April 17 and 24. “The goal of our program is always to prevent domestic and sexual violence, but specifically with teens, to help them be aware of the ways they can have healthy relationships,” said Jones. “I never want the program to be a list of “what not to do” or simply convey the dangers of unhealthy behaviors, but rather to give teens realistic ways to incorporate healthy behaviors into all kinds of relationships.” Jones feels that this type of a program is becoming increasingly important in our current society.

“A growing concern is with texting; it’s easy for teens to feel that receiving tons of texts from their partner is the norm. And those texts might even make them feel good because they received attention from their partner. But that constant texting and checking up can easily become a controlling behavior, and teens need to be aware of that and able to set some boundaries in their relationships,” Jones said. The Choices program is held at The Access at 4:30 p.m. and presentations will run for about an hour. Jones will present information on topics such as healthy and unhealthy relationship behaviors, teen dating violence and safety in life online and using technology. “Hopefully teens will be able to connect with what I have to share and if they are experiencing any dating violence or unhealthy behaviors they can then take appropriate

steps to get some help or resources or talk to a trusted adult about it. And even if teens aren’t experiencing these types of issues themselves, almost all teens know a friend who is,” she said. Teens will be invited to discuss what is relevant to them when it comes to safe dating and to participate in activities to raise their awareness of these issues. Teens will also be encouraged to connect via the new Hands of Hope Facebook page (facebook.com/INHan dsofHope) and to follow Hands of Hope on T w i t t e r (@INHandsofHope), where Jones will provide additional infor-

mation and statistics about safe dating and answer teens’ questions as a complement to the presentations. “I hope that teens will use these forums to ask questions or post comments about our programs. We want to be responsive to what teens actually need and are interested in, rather than to come to these issues from only the adult perspective,” she said. Hands of Hope is a division of Family Service Society, Inc. and provides intervention and prevention services for domestic and sexual violence in Wabash and Grant counties, including advocacy and a shelter

Ag Resolutions breaks ground on new facility... continued from front page done work for us in the past.” Hettmansperger went on to say that without the availability of this property, there was a chance that Brodbeck Seed, a fixture of the Wabash community for many years, would have been forced to relo-

cate to a different county. “This location allows us to expand and keep Brodbeck Seeds in Wabash County for years to c o m e , ” Hettmansperger said. “This entire process has been a two-year adventure, and I’ve

been able to enjoy most of it. Brodbecks Seeds LLC General Manager Jim Engelberth said, “Brodbeck Seeds has been in the area for many years and we’re happy to come out here toady. We’ve needed more space as

Available For Adoption At The Wabash County Animal Shelter:

our sales have increased and we were fortunate enough to work with Bobby to make that happen.” At the new location, all Brodbeck Seeds distribution will take place, including customer pickup. “Having a warehouse of this size at one location should enhance the customer experience, as we’ll be even more efficient in

our distribution efforts,” Engelberth said. “Brodbeck Seeds also anticipates having a new office in the near future located adjacent to the warehouse, which will accommodate our growing administrative staff. Congratulations to B o b b y Hettmansperger on this new venture in Wabash.” A common theme

throughout the ceremony was how pivotal cooperation between the government agencies was to the completion of the project. “I’ve often times said that communication between the city, county, and North Manchester is pivotal to the success of any project,” City of Wabash Mayor Bob Vanlandingham said. “Having someone like Bill Konyha who sees

these projects through makes a tremendous difference as well.” “When I first started this process, Bill was always there and helped out so that we could get to where we are today,” Hettmansperger said. “It’s been a long process to get to here. I’m excited to see this dirt getting moved around.”

Wabash County is an area rich in history when it comes to the seed industry as Brodbeck, McKillips, Burvia Younce, Compton, and Troyer Seeds have all called the Wabash area home. Since the early 1930’s, Brodbeck Seed has been an early pioneer in supplying local farmers with hybrid seeds in an effort to improve agricultural income into the county. Ag income is vital to an area such as Wabash as property taxes alone amount for $3.4 million dollars brought

into Wabash County by local farmers. At Brodbeck alone, hundreds of kids have held summer jobs detasseling corn for us over the years. My own family lineage traces back to the earliest of times in Wabash County as the Russells, family members from my mother’s side, were some of the earliest pioneers and settlers into Wabash County, and included the first white child born in Lagro Township. T h e Hettmanspergers have been involved in various aspects of the

City of Wabash over the years, including serving as police chief and businessmen. As my responsibilities have outgrown our facilities, I am grateful for the opportunity of having the option of expanding our business into the new Wabash Industrial Park. Had that not occurred, the county and city could have potentially lost a business that had been in Wabash County for over 80 years and the jobs that were associated with it. With the new location, we now have an

opportunity to bring even greater income into the city and county, and the potential for further expansion in the future. I would like to personally thank the City of Wabash and Wabash County as a whole for allowing myself to continue the investment my ancestors proudly started many years ago.

Honeywell Center Gym... continued from front page walls. “We put a new ceiling in and dimmable lights,” Shrider said. “Those were all just little things that basically helped

make it into more of the space and facility that it is now.” Perhaps the biggest physical change was the installation of a 20-

foot tall curtain that forms a faux wall to mask the bleacher seating. “We still do other events and concerts where guests are

BEFORE COUNTY SCHOOLS HAD THEIR OWN GYMNASIUMS, proms, basketball games, scouting functions and many other events were held in the Honeywell Center’s gymnasium. Local people have a wealth of memories regarding the gym, which is part of what contributed to its new name of Legacy Hall. (photo provided)

seated in the bleachers, so they are still there and they still have functioning purpose. We basically have the curtain wall so it creates the illusion of more of a banquet space,” Shrider explained. The 4,650 square foot space is large enough to accommodate 400 people in a banquet setting or 1,200-1,300 individuals if the bleachers are utilized. With refinished flooring, a stage space and permanent decorative lighting that adds to the ambience, it is the perfect space for a variety of events. Other changes included the addition of ventilation registers, painting the stairs and handrails and installing a projector in the ceiling. At the completion of the transformation, the designation of gymatorium no longer seemed appropriate for the space, so the

H o n e y w e l l Foundation dubbed the room “Legacy Hall”. “There was quite a bit of thought that went into the name actually. We’ve been in this process about three years and we threw around a lot of names,” Shrider said. “The building itself was dedicated in 1952 so there are just decades worth of memories that have taken place in what was the gym from dances to performances and proms.” There is a plaque hanging at the Center, which quotes Mr. Honeywell as saying “May the building be ever useful.” The Board feels that by making this transition, they are continuing on the legacy of Mr. Honeywell, which helped them reach the decision to name it Legacy Hall. “That’s something that we’re always trying to do: make sure that we’re pro-

viding a space that continues to be useful for our patrons,” Shrider said. “The Board feels very strongly about the legacy of Mr. Honeywell.” One final addition is in the works for Legacy Hall: a plaque or sign proclaiming the name of the space and the significance behind it. “It has a pretty rich history for quite a few people in different ways and that

Kiwanis Club hears about Junior Achievement’s impact on youth

Dawn Horan, area coordinator of Junior Achievement of Northern Indiana, presented to the Wabash Kiwanis Club at its recent meeting. J u n i o r Achievement is the world’s largest organization dedicated to educating students about how to succeed in a global economy. Horan, who manages the volunteer programs in Allen, Huntington, Wabash and Wells counties, explained to the Club how JA’s volunteers have an impact on area students. “Local volunteers go into the classroom and teach things like workforce readiness, entrepreneurship and financial literacy,” Horan explained. “There’s a lesson plan for each activity that will be done in the classroom, so it’s very easy to follow.” JA programs are specifically designed to inspire students. “We try to not have the volunteers lecture too much, and all the programs are handson and activitybased,” Horan said. “One of the beautiful things about JA is that it’s a little bit different when each volunteer teaches it. Our volunteers bring their experiences and background into the classroom, and they share those with the students.” Each program is tailored to a certain

grade level and is taught once a week for five to seven weeks. Nathan Hastings, branch manager at Beacon Credit Union, discussed his experience in teaching the Marketplace program to sixth graders at Sharp Creek Elementary. “We focused on international trade and covered topics like imports and exports, trade barriers, and currency and exchange rates,” Hastings said. Hastings feels it is extremely important to expose students to these concepts at a young age. “By the time they get out of school, the international economic climate is going to be much different than it was when my parents got out of school, and even when I got out of school,” he said. “We talked about some of things children can do now to better position themselves to be a candidate for a job, because they’ll be competing not just against 50 Americans, but 50,000 people internationally. That’s why it’s so important that they start to think about these concepts now,” he said. Hastings closed his presentation by talking about the need that Junior Achievement fills in Wabash.

“I really felt JA was the first time I’ve seen somebody reach out to these kids and make them think about these things and about their future. Because they’re things that they’re going to have

to eventually face,” he said. To become a volunteer or to find out how to become involved in Junior Achievement, contact Dawn Horan at 260-484-2543 or dawn.horan@ja.org.

Veolia Environmental Services offers Wabash a “green” alternative in waste management by Danielle Swan DSmith @thepaperofwabash.com

Less than a month ago, Ross Chandler, account representative and environmental consultant with Veolia Environmental Services, was given the green light to market the company’s waste removal services to businesses and residences in certain areas of Wabash County. Veolia is proud to be one of the top six solid waste companies in the nation and

the largest environmental company in the world. Our local branch of the company is located in Claypool, 25 miles north of Wabash. “We own and operate our own landfill and have a fleet of about 15 trucks,” Chandler said. “We employ about 30 local people within the tricounty area.” Veolia was recently recognized by the United States Department of Energy as one of the cleanest environmen-

9975

tal companies, and they have several initiatives in place, which make them a “green” company. One of these initiatives is a renewable energy program, which is currently being applied in the Evansville region. “In the future, we plan to be able to capture the methane gas from the landfill which will then be run through a generator and will be able to power homes around the immediate landfill,” Chandler said. “Our Evansville office powers several thousand homes.” In order to put this into action at the Claypool landfill, Veolia needs more residential trash. “The wood and bricks don’t decompose so you don’t get methane out of that. In order to get methane you need “good trash,” Chandler explained. Another “green” initiative of the Evansville Veolia branch is their fleet of trucks, which run on

compressed natural gas rather than diesel fuel. “Our landfill up here is still a young landfill so that would be something that could happen 10 to 15 years down the line but that is an initiative we put on ourselves,” Chandler said. “Even though I guess you would technically call us a “trash company”, we’re an environmental company first. We do these things not because people tell us to do them, we have our own goal to become as green as possible.” V e o l i a Environmental Services and its sister companies can handle everything from hazardous waste, electronic recycling, fluorescent bulb recycling and more. Customers of Veolia can reap the benefits of services from a large company; however, Chandler is proud to say that if a customer calls the office, they will immediately

reach a live person who can answer their questions. “It’s a dying breed of being able to call somewhere and get a live person right out of the gate and for that person to be able to let you know what you need to know,” he said. “You don’t have to push buttons to get to anybody and that person that you speak with can tell you anything and everything you need to know about your account.” Veolia’s business motto is “Service First. Safety Always”, so along with their uncomplicated customer service, they pride themselves on making safety a priority. “We have the DriveCam monitoring system, which is a camera in the truck which gives the driver an extra set of eyes,” Chandler said. “We take great precautions to make sure that everybody goes to work and school and comes home in the same condition. That’s a huge deal for

us.” Veolia is currently offering residential waste removal services in the northern region of Wabash County. Customers receive a 96-gallon trash container with a flip-top lid, handle and wheels. Residential services are provided on a weekly basis and billing is on a quarterly basis. “Although we are currently on the north side of Wabash for residential services, we would encourage anybody who would be interested in services who doesn’t necessarily fit that zone to still give us a call because once we get a handful of people in a cluster of an area we will open that up and start servicing that area,” Chandler said. As far as commercial and industrial services are concerned, Veolia is open to service all of Wabash County. They offer pick-up up to three times per week,

and they feature a 24hour response time. Chandler feels that their prices are extremely competitive. “Trash and recycling add no profit to your business other than to save money on getting rid of it so it just makes sense that if you can save a few dollars on throwing stuff away it would be a good chance to do it,” he said. Those interested in residential services should call the Veolia office at 260839-0300. Those interested in commercial or industrial services should call Ross Chandler at 260-3369997. “Our main objective in coming into the Wabash market is to let people know that there is another option when it comes to waste removal and recycling,” Chandler said. “We would love to be a part of the Wabash community and provide them with good, safe service.”

Northfield Norsemen improve to 2-0

by Gary Andrews The Northfield baseball team improved to 2-0 on the season March 28, with an 11-7 win at Blackford. The Norse built a 10-0 lead after three innings before holding on for the win. In the top of the second, Joseph Ross reached on a walk. Dallas Hovey put down a sac bunt, but the pitcher’s throw went to left field. Kirtlan would walk before Ross and Hovey score on wild pitches. Kirtlan and Stouffer would then reach on walks. Kirtlan and Stouffer later scored on passed balls to put the Norse ahead 4-0. In the top of the third Joseph Ross led off with a double to

right center. Dallas Hovey connected on an rbi double. Kirtlan reached on bunt single, before an Adam Roser rbi single scored Hovey. Kirtlan and Roser scored on wild pitches to put the Norse ahead 8-0. Ryan Keaffaber then ripped rbi double scoring Adam Roser, and Austin Keen hit a double scoring Keaffaber to put the Norse up 10. In the bottom of the fifth the Norse committed 3 errors on miscommunication on a flyball to right, a bad throw on a definite pick off at 2nd, and dropped tag on throw from left to third led to six unearned runs. In the top of the 7th, Ryan Keaffaber hit a two out rbi single scoring Tanner

Chamberlain who had walked and stole second to end the scoring at 11-7. The Northfield JV baseball team opened their season March 28 night by beating Whiko in thrilling fashion, 11-9. Trailing 9-8 with one out in the last inning, Spencer Miller hit a walk-off three-run home run to win the game for the Norse. Miller also added an rbi triple, giving him four rbi’s for the game. Nate Hembree added 3 hits and 2 rbi’s, while Andrew Waldon collected 2 hits and 2 rbi’s. Waldon also earned the win on the mound in relief, going 4 and one-third innings, striking out 6 and giving up 3 runs.

Due to some field repair being done to Chris Rood Field the Wabash Apache baseball team’s season and home opener game against Eastern was moved to Eastern March 29 and the Apaches played like they were at home, erupting for eight runs in the 4th inning to cap off a 12-0 rout over the Comets, who were 2-0 going in to the game.

Shea Beauchamp’s two run double in first got the Apaches going and they never looked back. The Apaches plated three runs in the first and one in the third to lead 4-0 before the fourth inning eruption. Wabash pounded out 10 hits in the fiveinning game, while pitcher Andrew Shepherd was pitching a masterpiece and

Manchester Squires stumble at Wawasee

by Gary Andrews The Manchester baseball team traveled to Wawasee March 29 and fell to the hosts 6-1. After the first two innings went scoreless, Wawasee broke the ice in the third, scoring twice to take a 2-0 lead after three. Manchester could not

get anything going on offense and the defense was having its troubles. Wawasee would score three more times in the fourth and one in the fifth to take a 6-0 lead. The Squires finally got on the board in the 6th. Payton Sorg drew a walk and scored on a Jim Sainsbury walk

THIS SUNDAY is Easter. Many of us will have a three-day weekend, with some of us traveling to friends and family. With the weather being nice, there will be more traffic on the roads, so be very careful and watch out for the other guy. Have a happy Easter. WHERE DID THE EASTER BUNNY COME FROM? How the Easter Bunny tradition began isn’t entirely clear; however, Germany has been credited with the origin of associating a bunny with Easter. In 16th century literature, there are accounts of a bunny who, each spring, would reward the

good with eggs. The first edible Easter bunnies, made out of pastry and sugar, were made in Germany in early 1800s. Prior to the Christian holiday of Easter, the hare and rabbit showed up often in pre-Christian fertility lore. These animals often served as symbols of new life during the spring season. In America, the Easter Bunny was introduced by the German settlers who arrived in the Pennsylvania Dutch country during the 1700s. The arrival of what they referred to the bunny as “Oschter Haws” was considered “childhood’s greatest pleasure” next to a visit from Christ-Kindel on Christmas Eve. The children believed that if they were good the Oschter Haws would lay a nest of colored eggs. The children would build their nest in a secluded place in the home, the barn or the garden. Boys would use their caps and girls their bonnets to make the nests. The use of elab-

orate Easter baskets would come later as the tradition of the Easter Bunny spread throughout the country. (by Sandi Duncan) LAKETON BLUE BIRD CAFE will be open Easter Sunday, 6 a.m. to 2 p.m. Reservation can be made by calling 260982-7147. AT WARVEL PARK, Larry Hivley is offering classes for new Horseshoe Pitchers on Sundays at 3 p.m. For more information, call Larry Hively at 260-9829731.

The courts are cement and can accommodate wheelchair pitchers. Seven veterans will go on to pitch at the Handicap Veterans Olympics to be held in St. Louis, Mo. This is a wonderful opportunity to do something for our vet-

erans who have sacrificed so much for us. The public is invited to come. For more information, call Larry Hively at 260-982-9731 or South Whitley Horseshoe Club at 260248-2826.

THE WABASH UNIT of the Women’s Committee of the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra hosted its annual tour of the Honeywell House for the third grade classes in the Wabash area schools. This event coincides with their social studies history standards that require students to describe how significant people, events and developments have shaped their own community and region.
