by Eric Stearley eric@thepaperofwabash.com When Heartland Career Center Director Gary Sweet announced his intentions to retire during the last school year, it was clear that the educational facility had changes coming its way. As director for 16 years and assistant director for two years before that, Sweet had been an influential force at the school since before most of last year’s students were born. His retirement left a vacancy that was quickly filled by the obvious choice, Principal Mark Hobbs. “I’ve been here 14 years, and Gary was fortunate enough to retire, and that created an opening, so I had the opportunity to move into this position,” now-director Mark Hobbs said. Hobbs plans to continue Sweet’s work, while striving to adapt the career center to the needs of 21st century students. As he steps away from the daily operations of the school, he’ll move into a position focused on broader subjects like the school’s educational direction and its funding. “Career and technical education is the hot topic in education in the state of Indiana, so there are a lot of changes taking place,” said Hobbs. “They’ve come up with work councils (continued on page 20)

al new additions. Traditionally, FunFest is advertised as a three-day event, but with multiple activities now scheduled on Wednesday and Sunday, it is really more like five days. This year’s festival is considered to (continued on page 5)

Salvation Army Family Store celebrates first anniversary by Sandy Johnson One of the newest thrift stores in Wabash will soon be celebrating their one-year anniversary. On Friday and Saturday, August 15 and 16, The Salvation Army Family Store & Donation Center is planning a special event for customers with store hours running from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. both days. On Saturday there will be a storewide half-off sale on select items, cupcakes for the first 100 customers, and door prizes every other hour. Some prizes will include gift cards from local restaurants and salons, as well as store gift cards. There will also be a drawing held at closing that day for a chance to win a Kindle Fire. Winners do not need to be present for these drawings. “The store carries a wide selection of items to choose from such as, clothing, furniture, books, movies, televisions, jewelry, small appliances, treasures, and collectibles,” stated Salvation Army district manager Heather Hull. “There is new stuff put out everyday,” she added. Hull has been working with the manager in getting the store ready for the celebration. “We are happy to be in Wabash,” said Hull. “The location is great because it is off the highway and close to Wal-Mart, and the size of the store is perfect.” When the plan was set for a Wabash store, the company was confident the store would succeed. Although the store’s earnings aren’t exactly where the company would like them to be, they continue to strive to make the store more profitable for the future. Hull pointed out that the store will be dropping their prices in order to stay competitive with other thrift stores in the area. “I think it is important to note that most of the sales from the Wabash store go to help our adult rehabilitation center in Fort Wayne,” explained Hull. Although the center is located in Fort Wayne, anyone with a qualifying condition can use this facility. The Salvation Army has been helping millions of people, men and women alike, since 1865. Only in the last 20 years, however, have the earnings from the Family Stores played a major role in helping the rehab centers continue to offer their services.

Purdue Extension Office of Wabash County thanks 4-H volunteers and supporters Dear editor, The Purdue Extension Office of Wabash County would like to thank all of the 4-H volunteers for their contributions in making the 2014 4-H fair a success. 4-H volunteers put in countless hours for the 4-H program on a year round basis. The culmination of the

hard work of many is the Wabash County 4H Fair, which enables the youth of Wabash County to exhibit projects as the final outcome of their yearlong dedication and hard work. Many thanks are extended to the following groups, who volunteer year round for the 4-H program:

Wabash County 4-H Council, 4-H Club Leaders, Wabash County Fair Association, and the Wabash County Extension Board. Many additional groups put in countless hours during the fair to make it a great community event. The Extension Office would additionally like to thank 4-H L i v e s t o c k Superintendents and committees, fair event committees, Wabash County Extension Homemakers, clubs and community groups for helping host the buildings, and Farm Bureau Inc. for their continued support and building use during the fair. In addition to the specific groups, there are many other individuals who work to make Wabash County 4-H a successful program. We could not

successfully plan and implement the Wabash County Fair without the nearly 200 volunteers who assist with this venture. This includes many new volunteers who stepped in to help as non-livestock judging was held as a one-day event for the first time. Thanks to over 50 volunteers, the oneday judging was a huge success. For the 4-H members to display projects during the fair, 4H members, parents and leaders from each school area participate in service learning in the following ways: Pre-Fair set up completed by Southwood and Wabash; Post Auction clean-up completed by Manchester; Post-Fair

tear down completed by Northfield. Thank you to all groups and everyone else who helped with set-up and/or clean up. These enormous tasks could not be done without the help of many! Thank you to all the community partners the 4-H program has during the fair and year round. There are so many businesses that give of their time and resources to help benefit the 4-H youth of Wabash County that we cannot begin to list them all, but their efforts are greatly appreciated. Last, but not least, we want to thank the various media groups that covered the 4-H Fair. As always, the daily/weekly cover-

age from our local newspapers and radio stations was outstanding this year. We hope to see the Wabash County community at the fair again next year. While we are still working on dates, plans are already underway as approved volunteers are currently reenrolling for next year, the Wabash County 4-H Handbook is under review and revision, and we prepare to enroll 4-H members in a brand new online enrollment system. Not involved with 4-H? Call the Extension Office at 260-563-0661 ext. 1408 to find out how to volunteer or enroll as a youth member in the largest youth organization in

the nation. The Indiana State Fair is happening now. The Extension Office encourages everyone to visit the Indiana State Fair from Aug. 1-17. We have a community 4-H youth of which we can be proud! Many are at the State Fair preparing for livestock shows as I type. If you know a Wabash County 4-H member who shows livestock or non-livestock at the state level, take a moment to congratulate and encourage them as they represent Wabash County with pride!

Special blood drive to be held in memory of Rod and Sarah Haupert

260-563-8326 www.thepaperofwabash.com

WABASH COUNTY, INC.

An American Red Cross blood drive will be held on Wednesday, Aug. 13, in memory of Rod and Sarah Haupert. A traffic accident took the lives of the father and daughter in 2012. This is the third year that a blood drive is being dedicated to them.

Friends and family say Sarah Haupert had a passion for helping save lives through blood donations. She was a loyal donor who started giving blood when she was in high school. At the time of the accident, Sarah was a student at Ball State University. She

was scheduled to give blood at the Urbana Community Center a week after she was killed. Donate Blood in Memory of Rod and Sarah Haupert on Wednesday, Aug. 13, from 2-6:30 p.m. at Urbana Community Center, located at 16 E. Half

Street in Urbana. Donors are asked to please call 1-800RED CROSS or go to redcrossblood.org to schedule a blood donation appointment. The drive is sponsored by the Urbana York Parish.

officially begin on Thursday, Aug. 7th and to end on Saturday, Aug. 9th; however, there will be four activities on Wednesday evening and four more activities on Sunday. “We seem to be creeping out of our borders on each end, as there are now several events taking place on Wednesday and Sunday as well,” said Laura Rager, executive director of the Chamber of Commerce. “On the Wednesday preceding FunFest this year, there is now a Powder Puff football game, a performance by Charles Billingsley, and a bonfire, as well as the start of the tennis tournament. “The Powder Puff game came about because our theme for this year is ‘homecoming’, which was originally intended to relate to the number

of people that come home to North Manchester during this time every year. Over the years we’ve learned that a lot of people schedule their family reunions, class reunions, or large gettogethers around FunFest because it gives everybody such a great opportunity to see old friends. So, that’s what our original intention was; but, when people began to think about school starting again soon and the start of football season being just around the corner, that different aspect of homecoming just kind of crept its way in and stuck. “For most of us on the FunFest Committee, Powder Puff football is synonymous with bonfires, and Manchester Community Schools was not only gracious enough to provide the football field for our

new event, but also the venue and the wood for the bonfire as well. I think that all will make for a very fun addition; now, whether it will continue going forward, that just kind of depends on how popular it is. I know it took a while for the idea to catch on but now we seem to have people gaining enthusiasm for it.” Another new event preceding the official start of FunFest is the concert on Market Square sponsored by Shepherd’s Family Auto Group. The featured performer will be Charles Billingsley, who is a contemporary Christian artist. “It kind of ties into our Playin’ in the Streets summer music program that we started last week because this falls on a Wednesday night, but it also happens to be the Wednesday before FunFest, so it kind of

got tied into that as well,” Rager explained. “On Sunday, we have our Summer Blast Baseball & Softball Tournament, which was really successful last year, so that’s kind of a carryover event,” she continued. “The Izaak Walton League Prize Shoot is also on the Sunday following FunFest, and this year, the StraussPeabody Aquatic and Fitness Center is offering a ‘Dive-In Movie’ on Sunday as well. They will have free open swim while they show a movie up on the wall, so you can bring your floats or rafts and enjoy what sounds like it will be a really neat event.” Rager went on to say that, while the Chamber Raffle has long been a part of FunFest, the prize this year is a little dif-

ferent. The winner will still be drawn during the Cruise-In Car Show on Friday night, but the prize is now a brand new Cub Cadet UTV (utility vehicle) with a hydraulic lift bed and four-wheel drive. “It’s been really well received,” she added. “We’ve actually been pleasantly surprised by the number of women that are excited about winning it.” According to Rager, the five-member band Small Town will provide entertainment on the Crossroads Stage both Friday night and Saturday night. “They do a great variety of music and will cover some well-known songs from several different genres,” she said. “They’ve been very well received here over the last couple years and they’re great to work with, so

we thought it would be fun to bring them in for Friday night this year as well.” “The Kiwanis ‘Ride for Riley’ is in its second year,” Rager continued, “and that’s a great event for a great cause, as all the proceeds go to Riley Children’s Hospital. People seem excited about that event, especially since it includes rides of several different lengths (50 miles, 20 miles, and 5 miles). “Also, there will be a Craft Beer Tasting on Saturday evening. The Chamber is sponsoring the event in conjunction with the consortium of Home Brewers here in North Manchester.

The idea for this event is different than that of a beer tent though; the intent is for people to experience different beers and the brewing process, so it’s more like an educational event.” In terms of this year’s FunFest, Rager says just being out of the construction phase downtown is an asset in itself. “I’m sure there were some people last year that thought stuff would still be all torn up and decided to take a year off from attending FunFest,” she concluded. “Everything is all put back together now, it’s very easy for people to get around, and it’s very attractive.”

Salvation Army Family Store celebrates first anniversary... continued from front page bilitation centers help adult males get back on track with their lives after falling to drug or alcohol addiction, divorce, homelessness or other devastating circumstances. “The center provides a place to live, a work program, and spiritual help in a structured environment. All of which is 100% free,” explained Hull. Not only are men provided a place to sleep and meals throughout the day, but they also work for The Salvation Army in many different areas. Some work in the kitchen, while others help sort and clean merchandise that are later delivered to the district’s family stores. All of these services are important in rebuilding the lives of these men so that they can once again live on

their own. “We are so happy for all the donations we have received in Wabash,” said Hull. “Our best selling items are women’s clothing and knickknacks,” Hull added. Without donated items, the store would not have much to offer its thrift shoppers. Donations are always accepted during store hours and can be dropped off at the back of the store or through the front entrance. Besides donated merchandise, ten percent of the items sold in the store are new resale products that come from liquidation sales from larger companies, such as Target. This offers shoppers a variety of options along with gently used items. The store’s inventory runs on a six-week cycle. This means by week five the mer-

chandise goes on sale at half-off. After that week, items that didn’t sell are removed from the floor and shipped back to Fort Wayne where they are later packed in a truck and sent to another country. “We try everything we can to recycle,” said Hull. “Shoes can be taken apart, and we even scrap metal,” she added. The six-week inventory cycle helps the store offer a variety while removing those items that are not selling off the floor. In the future, The Salvation Army hopes to expand their services with a “transitional home” for men who graduated from the rehabilitation center but aren’t quite ready to live on their own. “This place would provide an in-between so that there is some accountability, but

less discipline,” explained Hull. Plans for opening a women’s rehab center is also being discussed. As part of the Wabash store’s oneyear celebration, the company will run an ad with a coupon in The Paper this week

and the next week for customers to use when visiting the family store. For more information about The Salvation Army, the services they offer, and ways to help, visit their website at w w w. s a l v a t i o n armyusa.org.

Ivy Tech Wabash offers machine tool training program Pauline Barker Education Trust funds effort with $38,000 grant. Ivy Tech Community College in Wabash recently received a $38,000 grant from the Pauline Barker Education Trust that will enable the College to fund a machine tool training project in the community. The grant will cover tuition and books for 12 Wabash County residents to take four degree-credit classes. The classes will meet on Tuesday and Thursday evenings during the fall and spring semesters in the machine tool lab at Heartland Career Center, 79 S. County Road 200 West. Wabash Campus Executive Director

Pam Guthrie said she is excited about this opportunity to help the Wabash County workforce. “We have relatively small manufacturing companies that need assistance from Ivy Tech in providing training for increasingly higher skilled jobs.” Guthrie said. “These companies are too small to have their own training programs, but many of them have similar training needs.” Guthrie said the College’s Wabash Advisory Board discussed the need for skilled machinists in the community and the program was designed to help local workers who have an interest in this field get the knowledge and skills they need to qualify for these jobs. “I am hoping that

our Wabash manufacturing companies will encourage some of their more promising employees to take advantage of this program,” Guthrie added. “The classes will be offered in the evenings, so it is possible to continue to work full time and still complete the program. These are degree-credit classes, so students may choose to continue their education with other types of funding and can apply these four courses toward an associate’s degree.” Chuck Huffman, senior vice president of First Merchants Bank, represented the Pauline Barker Education Trust at the presentation of the grant. Since 2003,

the trust has provided nearly half a million dollars toward helping Wabash County adults attain the education and skills they need to succeed in the workplace. As the manager of the Rock City Café for many years, Ms. Barker saw the need for adult education in the Wabash community. Her decision to form a trust for adult students in Wabash County is helping the community reach the important national goal that 60 percent of residents have some kind of higher education credential. “This is an important standard for the community if we hope to have a qualified workforce that will attract and retain good employers,”

North Manchester Center for History has a new face For months, the North Manchester Center for History (NMCH) has been planning and building its new face on Main Street. Inspired by the town’s façade improvement program, the NMCH decided to address two of its most pressing problems – new windows and improved handicapped access. The first step was to decide on a plan. In the 115 years since the original Oppenheim Department Store building was constructed, there have been two major façade renovations, in the 1920’s and in 1969. The building next door at 120 E. Main, which was incorporated into the 1969 renovations, was another factor. Photographs of all these reincarnations are available in the NMCH collection. NMCH has had four separate architectural plans suggested for its façade in the 14 years since it moved

into its present location. A North M a n c h e s t e r Historical Society committee consisting of Ralph Naragon, Dave Randall, Jim Garman, Joe Vogel, Tim Taylor, Joyce Joy and Mary Chrastil examined all of the previous plans, taking ideas from each to decide on the best option. “We would have loved to return to the façade from Victorian times, but that front no longer exists,” said Chrastil, NMHS President. “The windows, both on the first floor and upstairs, were substantially changed during the 1929 renovations, and further altered in 1969.” The overall plan decided upon was to return as much as possible to the 1920’s look, which might be described as early 20th century commercial style. A plan taking the most desirable features of the four suggested architectural plans was adopt-

ed with NMHS board approval. Since NMHS knew it could not afford to restore its entire façade at this time, the plan that was adopted has several stages. The first stage, completed this year, was to replace the main floor windows and doors. The plan needed to take into consideration that the building is now used as a museum, with requirements concerning public access and protection of any artifacts on display. The most noticeable difference is the darkness of the new windows. The old windows had film affixed to them, which protected against ultraviolet rays, one of the most damaging challenges to museum collections. The film was scratched and crackled and needed to be replaced with UV protected glass, which looks dark from the street. To offset the darkness, the NMCH is hoping to upgrade its window spotlights

to LED lights eventually. LED technology has improved rapidly the past several years to the point where LED lights are more affordable. They are so energy efficient that they can be on for extended periods yet use much less electricity than the compact fluorescents now in the windows. This will be the second time the Center has upgraded its window lighting; the previous bulbs were a big improvement several years ago when they replaced the original, hot, energy-wasting spotlights. Another noticeable difference is the elimination of an entrance in the east portion of the building (the former men’s store), and the addition of ADA-compliant doors in the central portion. The new doors are wider to bring them into compliance and have an automatic door opener, making it easier for wheel chairs and

walkers to pass through. “It’s not that handicapped access was not available before, but we had to open both of our double doors, each of which was too narrow by itself, and there was no automatic assistance,” said Chrastil. “The doors themselves were very heavy and hard to use.” In addition, when the doors are locked, you can now exit with a crash bar, giving safer exit from the building in an emergency. The new entrance configuration also provides an airlock, which will help with utility bills. Eliminating the doors in the east alcove of the building provides symmetry to the façade and has the bonus of adding some welcome exhibit space. The difference is that the space is entered from the inside rather than the street side. “We were able to save the terrazzo floor in the entranceway and the original window platforms, which were highly desired objectives,” said Chrastil. “Removing the windows from the alcove opens up the space, making a unique area where special exhibits can be highlighted, all with losing only inches of the total window display to the exterior.” There was an added bonus to the construction. Once the windows were cleared, the center decided to take up the unattractive floor coverings that had been used for

years. Several layers down, they found original hardwood floors. The floors have now been scraped, sanded and sealed, resulting in beautiful window display areas. Another bonus was finding railings in the basement from longago Oppenheim Store displays. The railings have been repaired, painted and reconstructed to fit into the new display area in the former east alcove. Lemoine Gemmer, a master craftsman, did wonderful job of rebuilding and attaching the railings. It’s nice to be able to use something from the original store in our restoration efforts. While there have been dramatic changes to the façade and display windows, there are other less noticeable improvements. For 80 years, nails, staples and hooks have been pounded into the ceilings and walls. These have now been removed, and the ceiling repainted for the first time in almost 50 years. The brick façade that was installed under the windows in 1969 has been removed, revealing the original metal facing. Further brick removal of the façade bricks has exposed brick and granite surfaces from the 1920’s, somewhat damaged, but with good promise for the next stages of restoration. While the window installation was contracted, much of the other work was done

by volunteers, led by Ralph Naragon and assisted by Dave Randall. “Ralph has spent days doing prep work, refinishing floors, and assisting the contractors,” said Chrastil. “He’s saved the center thousands of dollars. This project has expanded well beyond its original scope. It’s like replacing a sofa in your living room— then a chair needs to be recovered, the carpet looks shabby and needs to be replaced, the paint needs to be freshened up, and new curtains would be nice.” What’s next? According to Chrastil, it’s been very expensive to implement the restorations so far, even with a significant amount of volunteer labor. “The town façade program was designed to help the normal sized downtown storefront; the reality is that we have a front the size of three normal storefronts,” said Chrastil. “The funds from the town program covered less than a third of our window costs. We know that the next phase – the removal of the overhang, addition of awnings, and restoration of the upper story – will be even more expensive than the first phase, partly because we don’t know what damage was done to the 1920’s façade when the 1969 front was constructed. “The town façade program got us started on something we might have delayed

for years,” Chrastil continued.” We are so grateful to the town for their program, and we are pleased to be able to invest in our community. We are devoted fans of the efforts over the past several years to improve Main Street. It may take a few years, but the next phase is definitely one of our goals.”

THE PAPER

August 6, 2014

WAYNE FANSLER WAS THE GUIDANCE DIRECTOR at Northfield High School when the school opened in September 1962. Wayne was Principal of Roann High School when consolidation took place. Wayne’s words at the end of Northfield’s first school year were as follows. “I feel that this first year at Northfield has been one that will long be remembered by many. Where else but in a country and community like ours could the remarkable achievement of consolidating four areas into one be accomplished with so little turmoil and strife. We have a lot to be grateful for in this, our fine new building and the educational opportunities presented here. I know that as your Guidance Director many things did not get accomplished that were hoped for, but ground work has been laid for the future that will offer to each and every student the type of service he needs and wants.” (photo provided) PRAYER CONCERNS: Please add Dean Dawes and continue to remember Doris Bever, Gene Fox, Max and Nancy Chamberlain, Sandy Haupert, Don McNabney, Gene Miller, Wilbur Miller, Lillian Maurer, Deloris Greenlee, Marguerite Baker, and Ardis Witkoske.

Wabash man arrested for child molestation and sexual battery Recently, a criminal investigation by Indiana State Police Detective Josh Maller resulted in the arrest of Juan Martinez, 44, Wabash, on four felony charges. He is currently being held in the Wabash County Jail on a 72hour hold, with no bond. Detective Maller started an investigation after receiving information that Martinez had

Back to school safety The Wabash City Police would like to remind motorists that schools will be starting Aug. 8. Therefore, the Wabash City Police Department is asking that motorists be cautious in traveling due to school children walking, riding bicycles, and waiting at

bus stops. Due to the closing of W.C. Mills School, there will be children at many different locations throughout the city. The hours of school are different this year. Be aware that children sometimes forget about motor vehicles and may dart into traffic.

The Wabash City Police always urge caution when driving, but especially while the children, parents, bus drivers and motorists get accustomed to new bus stops. Be an alert driver and be prepared to stop for school buses loading and unload-

ing. Failure to stop for a school bus that has its lights activated and bus arm extended could result in a citation or, even worse, an injured child. Lets all work together and keep the area children safe.

FunFest activities at Center for History

The North Manchester Center for History is open to the public with free admission during North Manchester’s FunFest by the River. Free admission is available Friday, Aug. 8, from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. and Saturday, Aug. 9, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Stop by to see the regular exhibits of the award-winning Center for History and the new façade on the first floor. New window exhibits are on display, along with a special display of photo-

graphs celebrating Timbercrest’s 125th anniversary. A newly restored painting by Logansport artist Wilson Beery is also on display. It depicts a raft on the Wabash River, near the spot where the Eel empties into the Wabash. The Center for History hosts traveling exhibits from the Indiana Historical Society three times each year. During FunFest and weekdays through August 28, the exhibit Auto Indiana will be on display. It

covers inventors and innovators like Elwood Haynes and Ralph Teetor, automakers like Studebaker and Duesenberg, and the ties between automobiles and the development of many other related industries such as the iron, steel and glass businesses. It also explores how the automobile became part of “American Dream” and popular culture, from movies to making personal memories.

On Saturday, Aug. 9, Carol Miller will read her new children’s book, “Tuffy and His Funny Farm Animal Stories,” which is about the farm pets Miller had as a child, from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Miller will autograph any books sold during FunFest.

Wagon Wheel Theatre presents “The Marvelous Wonderettes”

The Wagon Wheel Theatre presents the smash hit offBroadway musical “The Marvelous Wonderettes.” This 1950s and 1960s nonstop pop musical will be jitterbugging its way into the Wagon Wheel Theatre Aug. 1323. The Marvelous Wonderettes takes the

audience to the 1958 Springfield High School prom where we meet four girls with big voices and big dreams as big as their crinoline skirts. The question is, who will win prom queen? We learn about their lives and loves while the girls perform the classic 50’s and 60’s pop songs. Audiences will enjoy

the 50’s and 60’s song hits such as “Lollipop”, “Stupid Cupid”, “Mr. Sandman”, and “It’s in His Kiss”. Director of Marketing and Fund Development, Rachel Mondragon says “If you love the music of the 1950s and 1960s you don’t want to miss this musical. Audiences who saw last year’s

show, “Forever Plaid,” will see the similarities between the shows. Fantastic harmonies with well known songs, this show is sure to be a hit with Wagon Wheel audiences.” For more information, visit www.wagonwheeltheatre.org or call the box office at 574-267-8041.

Center for History in 2009. The collection is on display at the Center for History. The Center for History will also host the continuous showing of three videos, “The Building of the Peabody Mansion,” the perennially popular “See Yourself in the Movies 1938,” and

the “Moving of the Thomas Marshall House.” On Saturday, Aug. 9, the Thomas Marshall House will also be open to the public with free admission. The Marshall House, located on Market Street next to the library, is the birthplace of Thomas R. Marshall,

Indiana Governor and Vice President of the United States. It has been restored to its original 1852 condition, and is furnished with artifacts of that period. Docents will provide tours and answer questions about the Marshall family.

his new position. This, however, creates a second vacancy in the school’s administration at the position of principal. Sixteen applied for the position last spring; five made it to an interview, including Northfield High School’s industrial technology teacher Jon Higgins. “Jon just kind of stood out for us,” said Hobbs, who was one of five individuals on the selection committee. “He has an interest and passion for career education.” “When he said he

was going to apply for the position, I thought he’d have a great shot, so I wasn’t shocked at all,” Northfield Principal Mike Keaffaber said of Higgins’ hiring. “I was very excited for him, because he does an excellent job. He has the skills to do all of that.” But a job in administration is not something that’s been on Jon Higgins radar for long. Though his colleagues assured him that he would be a good fit in a school’s leadership position, he saw (continued on page 21)

Higgins hired...continued from page 20 himself as more of a hands-on teacher, spending years teaching design and architecture both through computer programs and in Northfield’s shop. Still, Higgins pursued an administrator’s license, which would come in handy when the position opened at Heartland. “This opportunity is a perfect fit for me if I’m going to be an administrator,” said Higgins. “It’s one of those jobs I never thought I would do, but this is my kind of environment. This is a hands-on environment and these are the kinds of kids I relate to.” Higgins said he will miss some of the dayto-day interaction with students, as well as seeing them grow and mature over 6 years as he did at Northfield, but knows he’ll still have many opportunities to build relationships with Heartland students. He’s also

looking forward to expanding student opportunities in the future. “I think as a school, we look to provide more opportunities for students: get more cer-

tifications, more dual credit opportunities, and continue to build relationships in the community,” said Higgins. “Heartland has done super things in this community for a

with a lot of opportunities and gave me a lot of flexibility to pursue a lot of different things, and I appreciate that fact,” said Higgins. “If it hadn’t been for some of the administration in the system, I wouldn’t be where I’m at today.”

While Heartland enrollment has stayed about the same over recent years, the same cannot be said for computeraided design (CAD) and industrial technology classes at the high schools. The career center and the opening of professional internship has given careerminded students great opportunities, which Higgins encouraged, though he acknowledged they chiseled away at his classes’ enrollment. “A lot of kids that I normally would have had at Northfield were out doing internships and getting hands-on experience that I could-

reducing poverty and providing people with lives of dignity in every nation by 2015. The World Alliance for Breastfeeding Action (WABA), which coordinates World Breastfeeding Week, has identified how breastfeeding contributes to each of the MDGs. Here in the area, WIC (Women, Infants & Children), is celebrating breastfeeding this year by selecting one breastfeeding mom and baby from the past 12 months through a voting system to be recognized from each of the three offices located in Peru, Wabash, and North Manchester. To protect the privacy of those mothers and babies they are not mentioned here, but will be contacted directly by their local WIC office. Each mother/baby winner will be receiving gifts provided by

mind. Research shows that babies who receive only breast milk for the first six months of life are less likely to develop a wide range of chronic and acute diseases, including ear infections, diarrheal diseases, asthma, obesity, and respiratory illnesses. Mothers also benefit from breastfeeding with a decreased risk for breast and ovarian cancers. To reach the goal of exclusive breastfeeding, mothers need a team of helpers and healthcare professionals to support them. This breastfeeding team can include family, friends, physicians, nurses, midwives, employers, and childcare providers. Together, the breastfeeding team provides information to boost confidence, protects mothers against critics, gives reassurance, and lends a hand to help breastfeeding mothers succeed. Team members with special skills and knowledge about breastfeeding, such as a peer counselor or an International Board Certified Lactation

Consultant (IBCLC) are especially helpful. “An IBCLC is often the ‘head coach’ for the breastfeeding team, providing unique expertise and guidance for a mother,” said Decalie Brown, President of the International Lactation Consultant Association. Locally, WIC has a team which includes an IBCLC, as well as a peer counselor and others, who are ready to assist with decisions about infant feeding. There are always openings available to see if someone qualifies for WIC assistance. WIC can help provide nutrition for mothers and children by providing FREE healthy choice foods from local participating grocery stores and/or farmer’s markets. All moms receive information on the benefits of breastfeeding. In the local area, those moms who plan to breastfeed their babies may also participate in a special texting/emailing program that provides continued education and support for breastfeeding moms.

Northfield Assistant Principal Max Van Cleave, licensed in industrial technology education, will teach classes in the wood shop. “We’ve done this with physics for quite a while. We shared our French teacher last year,” said Keaffaber. “There are so many ways now that we can do that, whether we use Edmodo, My Big Campus, Google Hangouts, or Skype, there’s a variety of systems [we] could use.” Higgins said that the Heartland staff has made his transition

easy so far, but the real test will come when more than 500 students enter the career center this Friday, the first day of school. Thanks to a $10,000 grant from Midwest Technical Institute, they’ll be able to take advantage of some new technology as well. In addition to a new intercom and phone system throughout the career center, students now have a television in the break area to access news channels and card swipes on the vending machines, allowing students to use debit cards to purchase

snacks and drinks. “We had a committee work on that and gather ideas from students and staff,” Hobbs said about deciding how to use the grant money. All of these improvements will be completed by the first day of school. “Locally, we are just working to meet the needs of our area schools in preparing students for the workforce and for going on to school after high school and pursuing that education,” said Hobbs

American Legion Post 15 Auxiliary donates to Wabash County Cancer Society by Eric Stearley eric@thepaper-

ofwabash.com Members of the

American Legion Post 15 and Auxiliary

met at their downtown Wabash location

on July 1 to help a local charity, and in doing so, remember a friend and member. “We just wanted to do something, and we had one member, Joyce Bland, who passed away in late May,” said Auxiliary President Barbara Bishop. “We had a “Five-oClock Somewhere” dance and hamburger fry and the DJ was here for the dance,” Auxiliary Secretary Shirley Kessler added. “We had a lot of people in here.” “And we had a prize give away and a 50/50 drawing,” Post 15 Commander Steve Baxter added.” “We wouldn’t have been able to do that if it hadn’t been for the

businesses and individuals who donated,” said Kessler. The event raised money for the Wabash Cancer Society. Wabash Cancer Society Vice President Marcia Knee was very grateful for the donation. “I was ecstatic,” said Knee about finding out about the donation. “People don’t realize how much cancer is out there and what it takes to get people to and from their treatments and their medications and stuff. The people need help and the cancer society here in Wab ash is just one minute small way of doing that. Whatever money we do receive all stays in

Wabash County.” Knee said that the money from the Legion event will help pay for county cancer patents’ travel expenses and medications. “What people give us or what we can generate is the only money we ever have to operate, and it all goes to our patients,” Knee added. With success in the event’s first year, those involved hope for continued success in the years to come. “We hope to maybe have this as an annual event if we can get all the help we received this year,” said Post Commander Steve Baxter. “Naturally it takes a lot of help to do this.”

Learn More Center awarded $40,000 grant from Pauline Barker Educational Trust The Pauline Barker Educational Trust has awarded the Learn More Center a grant of $40,000 to support adult education programs in Wabash County. The Learn More Center is truly blessed by the Pauline Barker Educational Trust’s continued generosity and support! With this gift, the Pauline J. Barker Educational Trust has provided the Learn More Center with $290,000 of vital support for advancing educational opportunities for adults in Wabash County. The Learn More Center provides students a path to attain their goals within an efficient, effective and nurturing environment that provides instruction, guidance and mentoring. Support from the Pauline Barker Educational Trust

has assisted many students in overcoming their obstacles of learning differences, transportation barriers, and lack of support from home. Since 2010 alone, the Pauline Barker funds have supported 67 students in attaining their dreams of a GED! Pauline J. Barker, a life-long resident of Wabash, is remembered as the manager of Rock City Café, a position she held for forty-five years before her retirement. Before her death in 1999, she established this educational foundation bearing her name to provide support for basic literacy education, adult education, vocational training and re-training of youth and adults. The Pauline Barker Educational Trust is administered by First Merchants Trust Company.

In 1999, prompted by a Lilly Endowment Inc. funding opportunity known as the Community Alliance to Promote Education (CAPE) Initiative, community leaders from the area were convened by the C o m m u n i t y Foundation of Wabash County to discuss the future of Wabash County. The purpose of the CAPE Initiative was to create strategic and innovative communitybased educational programs aimed at improving educational attainment and the quality of life of Indiana residents. All C o m m u n i t y Foundations in the state were invited to submit proposals for $5 million to fund programs to address the specific educational needs of the counties in which they served. With much community involvement over

the course of the year 2000, the Community Foundation of Wabash County coordinated the work required to develop and submit the CAPE proposal, which was fully funded in December of 2000. The Community Foundation’s efforts revealed the critical need for programs and services to address adult literacy and adult basic education. Funded by the CAPE grant, the Learn More Center was launched in July of 2002 by the C o m m u n i t y Foundation of Wabash County. The Center then and now focuses on providing educational services and a learning community to meet the needs of adult learners in Wabash County, specifically related to workforce readiness, adult basic education, and literacy.

CHUCK HUFFMAN, REPRESENTING THE PAULINE BARKER EDUCATIONAL TRUST, presents a check for $40,000 to the Learn More Center’s Sally Krouse on Thursday, July 31. Also pictured are Hal Job of First Merchants Bank, Cynthia Johnson of the Learn More Center, and Aaron Campbell of First Merchants Bank.
