Stellar committee tours Wabash, fingers crossed for August announcement by Eric Stearley eric@thepaperofwabash.com Downtown Wabash buzzed with activity on June 25 as community members prepared for the arrival of 18 very special guests who comprised the Stellar Communities Evaluation Committee. More than 300 community members did their part to showcase Wabash as the best choice for this year’s designation. According to the Indiana Office of Community and Rural Affairs (OCRA), “The Stellar Communities program is a multi-agency partnership designed to fund comprehensive community development projects in Indiana’s smaller communities.” Along with OCRA, the Indiana Housing and Community Development Authority and the Indiana Department of Transportation participate in the selection process. There are currently six Stellar Communities in Indiana: Bedford, Richmond, Delphi, Princeton, Greencastle, and North Vernon. Wabash hopes to add its name to that list this year, which would open the door to future project grants. The day began with a presentation at Eagles Theatre, the restoration of which is a cornerstone of the strategic investment plan. “Stellar takes a lot of planning and a lot of work by a lot of people,” said Mayor Vanlandingham as he welcomed the community and committee members. “When you plan, you’ve got to know your tradition, and you’ve got to know your history, where you’ve been.” Vanlandingham spoke to the progress he’s seen during his time as mayor as groups and citizens began to cooperate and create a common goal of restoration and revitalization, particularly downtown.

MAYOR ROBERT VANLANDINGHAM welcomes the evaluation committee and members of the community during the Stellar Communities presentation at the Eagles Theatre Wednesday, June 25. The committee was made up of eighteen individuals from three agencies. This year’s winners are expected to be announced in mid-August. (photo by Eric Stearley) “I like the word community because it has the word unity at the end of it, and that’s what we have in Wabash, Wabash County, and this region,” said Mayor Vanlandingham. He also explained why Wabash is a

smart choice. “Wabash has a track record of getting things done as promised. We have a vision of what our community is going to look like in four years and we have the financial resources to complement our

partnership with Stellar,” said Mayor Vanlandingham. “One thing I’m really proud of is we have the human resources to carry out this mission for our community. When I talk about human resources, I’m talking about energetic young professionals, experienced business people, and dedicated government officials. If chosen, we will work hard to make your decision the right one. Wabash is a small community with big dreams based on proven successes to create a better region.” Following the mayor’s remarks, a short video played, displaying the people and places that make Wabash a “stellar” place to live. Following the video, nine community leaders each gave a short presentation on one of the projects that residents can look for in the coming years, including the vision, state of readiness, and impact on the community and surrounding areas. Honeywell Foundation Executive Director Tod Minnich presented plans for a $4 million renovation of the very building in which the presentation took place, Eagles Theatre. With phase 1 of the project completed in 2010 (which included main floor seating replacement, upgrades to the heating and air conditioning systems, and a wheelchair platform), plans are in place for renovation of the rest of the building, including the upper floors and a ballroom. “This plan will allow us to expand the existing community center capacity currently offered at the Honeywell Center and Honeywell House,” said Minnich. “When restored, this facility will house a wide variety of community events.

Dr. Bradley A. Farlow Optometrist 144 WEST HILL STREET WABASH 260.563.2020

KEEP SAFETY IN SIGHT Dr. Farlow A sparkler burns at 1800 degrees Fahrenheit. Imagine what it can do to a child’s eyes. The sights and sounds of a fireworks display are a traditional part of a 4th of July celebration. Unfortunately, fireworks can also lead to another annual tradition – a trip to the emergency room. According to Dr. Farlow, approximately 6,400 Americans are treated annually for fireworks-related injuries during the 4th of July holiday period, and of those, almost 1,600 are treated for injuries to the eye. “Every year, as many as 400 Americans lose sight in one or both eyes due to fireworks,” Dr. Farlow said. “We strongly encourage people to attend only authorized public fireworks displays conducted by licensed operators.” Dr. Farlow also offered these eye-opening facts about fireworks-related eye injuries: • Children under 14 account for 45% of fireworks-related eye injuries • Almost half of fireworks injuries happen to bystanders • The fireworks that cause the most injuries are bottle rockets, firecrackers, and sparklers. Dr. Farlow is the owner and prac-titioner of Dr. Bradley A. Farlow at 144 West Hill Street, Wabash and is a member of Vision Source, the nation’s number one network of private practice optometrists. Founded in 1991, The Vision Source network includes more than 2,700 offices in all 50 states and in Canada.

Nez, who died June 4, 2014. Nez grew up speaking only Navajo in Two Wells, New Mexico, on the eastern side of the Navajo Nation. He learned English as a second language while attending boarding school, where he had his mouth washed out with soap for speaking Navajo. Nez was in the 10th grade when he lied about his age to enlist in the U.S. Marine Corps. Nez and 28 others were recruited to develop a code based on the then – unwritten Navajo language. Locked in a room for 13 weeks, they came up with an initial glossary of more than 200 items using Navajo words for red soil, war chief, braided hair, and hummingbird, for example and an alphabet. The Navajos trained in radio communications were walking copies of it. In l942, code talkers were shipped to Guadalcanal, where they worked in teams of two – one to send and receive, the other to operate the radio and listen for errors. The Japanese did everything in their power to break the code, but they never did. For years, Nez’s family and friends knew only that he fought the Japanese during World War II. Their mission wasn’t declassified until 1968. Nez measured the accuracy of the movie “Windtalkers,” which came out in 2002, based on the code talkers, at 78 percent accuracy. Nez never tired of telling the story to highlight his pride in having served his country and to stress the importance of preserving the Navajo language. The current National Celebrate America volunteer hours for the chapter were at 664. Mary Jenet Penrod, Chaplin, conducted a memorial service for Jean Wright, who had served the chapter as Regent for nine years. The chapter voted to contribute $200 to the Tamassee DAR School in Tamassee, South Carolina, in her memory. The program was a quiz and answer session on the U.S. flag, being as the meeting was on June 14, Flag Day. They discussed that Francis Hopkinson designed (Continued on page 6)

Phase 2, one of the projects in this year’s pitch, includes 22 new building and business owners looking to use façade grants as a catalyst to building restorations. “Phase 2 of this program will undoubtedly spur further economic impact even past the businesses that directly utilize this program, just as was the case with phase 1,” said Sullivan. “This program will not only allow private investment to enable adaptive reuse of underutilized and dilapidated downtown buildings, but it also compliments all of the other community projects and efforts that are currently active in downtown

This area, which would be maintained by the parks department, allows children of all abilities to play together in the same accessible area. “Giving kids a place to play together allows them to foster relationships with, and develop an understanding of, those with different abilities,” said Myers. W a b a s h M a r k e t p l a c e Executive Director Patrick Sullivan explained the façade program.

Myers’ son has cerebral palsy, and the project would allow children such as him the opportunity to experience a playground like their peers. “In the 7 years of my son’s life, he has never had the experience of playing on a playground with other kids his age,” said Myers. “ Instead, he gets to sit on the sidelines and watch everyone else play in space that his walker can’t go or on equipment that is not

Some of Pat’s suggestions were to broil instead of frying, downsizing portions, reducing sugar, fat, and salt, using whole grain pasta, using fat-free milk, reducing the amount of meat served, and replacing half of fats added with applesauce.

Wabash County named Indiana College Success County Wabash County has been recognized as an Indiana College Success County in recognition of its work to increase the percentage of Hoosiers with education and training beyond high school. Members from Wabash County accepted the award, which was presented by Indiana Commissioner for Higher Education Teresa Lubbers during a special ceremony held at the Indiana Statehouse on June 9. “We are proud of the local leaders from Wabash County—K12, higher education, business, government and community

organizations—who have come together to increase educational opportunities and student success in Indiana,” said Lubbers. “Creating a culture of college access and success only happens when the vision is shared by the entire community.” Earning the College Success County Award The Indiana College Success County award is presented to counties who establish a College Success Coalition of community organizations that work together to increase college access and success.

Member organizations include the City of Wabash, Economic Development Group of Wabash County, the Community Foundation of Wabash County, Kellam, Inc., AlfeHeat Treat, Aleris Recycling, The Ford Meter Box Company, First Merchants Bank, PaperWorks Industries, all county public school systems, Ivy Tech Community College and Manchester University, Wabash County YMCA, Wabash County Chamber of Commerce, North Manchester Chamber of Commerce, Wabash Public Library, Economic Development Group of Wabash County, Growing Grounds, Learn More Center, The Paper of Wabash County, Wabash Plain Dealer, and the Questa Foundation for Education. To earn the Indiana College Success County award, member organizations cre-

ated a data-driven strategic plan and documented locally implemented activities designed to increase the percentage of the community’s recent high school graduates and returning adults who earn a postsecondary credential, including one-year workforce certificates, two- and four-year college degrees, apprenticeships and military training. The county also received a small startup grant and ongoing technical assistance from the state to support the coalition’s development. The award comes in the form of a road sign proclaiming the county as an Indiana College Success County. The coalition plans to display the sign on US 24 where it will be visible as people enter the county. Additional signs will be erected at points on major roadways in the county. Local organizations are encouraged to join the county’s

College Success Coalition and help create a college-going culture in Wabash County. The Coalition envisions that all citizens will have easy access to people who know how to plan, prepare and pay for education beyond high school. “We are looking for many different types of coalition members,” said Julie Garber of the C o m m u n i t y Foundation of Wabash County. “K-12 schools, two-year and four-year colleges, faith-based organizations, youth service organizations, service clubs, businesses, government agencies and libraries are just a few of the organizations that might be interested in helping Hoosier students attend college are encouraged to join.” Local organizations can join the College Success Coalition at LearnMoreIndiana.o rg/Coalitions.

www.in.gov/sos/elections/2401.htm for a list of approved forms of ID. This year, the League of Women Voters of Indiana is committed to making sure voters have the

Destiny Bradley and Robert Cooper to wed

information they need to participate in elections and ensure their votes count. We hope to vastly improve on the low voter turnout that was common across the state in the May primary. Please be sure you register before Oct. 6 so you can vote on Nov. 4. Your voice counts and your vote is your voice. The first step to having a say on the issues that matter most to you is registering to vote. As we pause this week to mark our nation’s birthday, set aside just a few minutes to check on your registration status, as well as to start learning about the candidates and issues that will be on your ballot. VOTE411.org and LWVIN.org is the place to go for all of your election information throughout 2014! Every election, whether local, state or federal, is important to ensuring our laws and policies reflect the values and beliefs of all Americans. Celebrate America’s 238th birthday this Independence Day by updating your voter registration or registering to vote for the

first time, and committing to vote and participate in the greatest democracy in the world. Amy Miller President, League of Women Voters of Indiana

July 9, 2014

surrounding areas. The Learn More Center strengthens and advances a prosperous Northeast Indiana by supporting every person’s ability to read, attain desired levels of education and provide for literate, healthy families. “At Dollar General, we are passionate about our mission of serving others throughout the communities we serve,”

said Rick Dreiling, Dollar General’s chairman and CEO. “It’s exciting to see the Dollar General Literacy Foundation’s outreach in action as we partner with organizations to further education and literacy and make a real difference in people’s lives.” For over a decade, the programs of the Learn More Center have helped Northeast Indiana

adults acquire basic skills in reading, math, and language and hone those skills for job performance. We offer adult basic education programs in our North Manchester and Wabash locations, including basic literacy skills classes and individual tutoring, high school equivalency preparation for Indiana’s change in 2014 to the Test Assessing Secondary

Completion (TASC), post-secondary transition, and English as a Second Language assistance. The Learn More Center offers programs to assist students to hone needed job skills such as math, English and computers. The Learn More Center makes it easier for adults to succeed by offering features such as a non-traditional setting, individualized,

self-paced curriculum, and extended hours. Using our programs, students reach their educational goals which open doors to employment opportunities. Since inception, the Learn More Center has helped over 303 students attain their GED. Additionally, in 2013 we logged over 6,300 instructional hours and 1,022 volunteer tutoring hours.

Historical Society to hold program on Gettysburg in August

As a little boy, Terry Smith spent time listening with great intent as his Grandpa Smith told him stories of the War Between the States. The fascination did not end there, and over the years, Terry has read, studied and visited Gettysburg on a regular basis. The North Manchester Historical Society is pleased to present a program by Terry Smith about Gettysburg and about North Manchester’s involvement in the Civil War. The program will take place at 6:40 p.m. on Monday, July 14, in the Assembly Room at Timbercrest Senior Living Community, 2201 East Street. Smith is a lifelong resident of North Manchester, and has spent much time in recent years researching the 47th Indiana unit, which comprised most of the North Manchester soldiers who volunteered for service in the Civil War. He is a member of the A.L.B.G.

(Association of Licensed Battlefield Guides), Friends of Gettysburg, Model T Ford Club of America, and is still an active musician. His daughter, Tess Campbell, will accompany Terry in the program. She grew up taking yearly trips with her dad, mom, and sister to visit the hallowed ground called Gettysburg. Instead of rejecting these yearly pilgrimages, she reveled in the spectacular countryside and fantastic stories that are all part of Gettysburg’s three day battle. Tess is a graduate of International Business College with a degree in Business and Retail Management. After being in the wedding industry for several years, Tess dabbles in event planning and works as an admissions counselor at IBC. Tess is married to A.J. Campbell and lives in Bluffton, IN. The historical society, in partnership with Shepherd’s Center, is offering a bus tour to

Gettysburg Aug. 26 through 29. A new visitor’s center opened in 2013 in honor of the 150th anniversary of the Battle of Gettysburg, so even if you have been to Gettysburg in the past, there will be new things to see. The tour will also visit the Eisenhower Farm and Blennerhassett Island Historical Park. Contact Bernie Ferringer by phone at 982-8734, by cell phone at 260-901-0113 or by email at bernievicki@gmail.co m if you are interested in joining the tour. The public is also invited to come to the Assembly Room at 6 p.m. for a meal prior to the program. For those who wish to attend the dinner, reservations must be made no later than noon on Friday, July 11. Reservations may be made by calling Evelyn at 260-982-6777, Mary at 260-982-1813 or the Center for History at 260-982-0672. There is no cost for the program, and all are welcome.

International high school exchange students seeking host families in Wabash Visiting students, ages 15-18, from around the world including Germany, Spain, Switzerland, and Thailand are seeking host families in and around Wabash for the upcoming 2014-2015 academic school year. Host families are needed for the fall semester and full school year. Host families (traditional families, singles, empty nesters, etc.) serve as mentors and a home base for their student. Visiting students participate as active members of the family and integrate into their host’s daily routines and traditions just like any other family member. Hosting an international student is a great way to explore a new culture and promote a sense of lifelong learning and adventure. “Every year

Indiana plays host to hundreds of talented, top-of-their-class students with the lifelong dream of studying in America,” reports Joseph Bissell, iEUSA’s Regional Director. “Indiana’s spirit of hospitality and focus on academic enrichment makes it an ideal environment to develop cultural exchange and promote international diplomacy on a local level.” iE-USA, the sponsoring program, is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting education and understanding through intercultural and academic exchange. iE-USA is certified by the Council on Standards for International Educational Travel and strictly adheres to all U.S. Department of State Student Exchange

Program regulations and guidelines. Exchange student participants undergo an extensive application and orientation process in their home country prior to being accepted into iE-USA’s program. Each student is responsible for his/her own spending money and full health insurance coverage. To learn more about how to make the dream come true for an international high school exchange student, contact Indiana representative Emily Rolin at e.rolin@international-experience.net, or by calling 269-6254662. Host families may review prospective student profiles online at iE-USA.org. Families interested in hosting this year must apply by Aug. 15, 2014.

Thoughtful gifts for hosts and hostesses When invited to a friend or family member's home for a dinner party or weekend getaway, custom suggests bringing a gift along for the host or hostess. Hosting is not always as easy as some hosts make it appear, so bringing a gift along is a great way to show your gracious hosts how much you appreciate their efforts. The following are a handful of ideas that make great host and hostess gifts. * Coffee: Coffee makes a great gift when spending a night or weekend at your host's home. Many adults prefer a hot cup of coffee when they wake up in the morning, so bring along a bag of fresh gourmet coffee for everyone to enjoy through the weekend. When bringing fresh coffee, it's best to err on the side of caution, so make sure to have the beans ground before you arrive at the

home of your host, who may or may not have a grinder. You can even go the extra mile and bring both caffeinated and decaffeinated coffee so those who prefer decaf are not left out in the cold. * Electric wine opener: For those who want to lend a helping hand with regard to nighttime beverages, consider an electric wine opener. Such openers remove the struggle of opening bottles of wine with traditional corkscrews. Electric wine openers can remove both natural and synthetic corks at the effortless press of a button, which means hosts can quickly and easily open bottles of wine for the table without the fear of breaking the cork and having it sneak its way into the wine. * Plant: Plants also make great gifts for hosts and hostesses. While flowers don't have the

longest life expectancy, a well-maintained plant can last a full season or longer. Plants can serve as pleasant accents to a home's interior while improving the air quality within the home, but plants also can be placed outdoors to add an extra element to a host's garden or yard. * Scented candle: Scented candles strike a chord with people who love to relax at home or establish a serene environment within their homes and offices. Hosts work very hard when hosting friends or family members, and scented candles can help them to unwind once all the guests have

come and gone for the night. * Seasonal items: Seasonal items relevant to the time of year when you're visiting or staying overnight with your host also make great gifts. For example, if a friend or family member is hosting a holiday party, then bring an ornament or decorative item he or she can hang on the tree or use to deck the halls in the years to come. If the party is a summertime backyard barbecue, then give some grilling accessories hosts can use when firing up the grill throughout the rest of the summer.

Manure Management Field Day presents new technology with soil health and conservation in mind The Wabash County Soil & Water Conservation District and the Conservation Cropping Systems Initiative will host a free Manure Management Field Day on July 29 at

Brubaker Farms. The half-day program will address application technology and nutrient management as well as the ways in which manure management relates to conservation and soil

health. “We as farmers are responsible for stewardship of the resources that are available to us. Every acre we farm contains thousands of pounds of nutrients essential to growing the crops that we are accus-

tomed to. The world demand for more and more food will require us to become more efficient with the application of commercial fertilizers and animal waste products that we heavily depend on in this area,” said Kevin

How to impress when hosting a business dinner

Hosting a business dinner is both an honor and a r e s p o n s i b i l i t y. Employers typically entrust only their most valued employees with the responsibility of hosting a business dinner, and such opportunities are not to be taken lightly. The desire to impress is there whether you're hosting your first or fiftieth business dinner, but those with experience hosting existing or potential clients know that no two business dinners are ever the same. What works for one client won't necessarily impress another, and the responsibility of impressing the clients falls on the host, which adds to both the excitement and the anxiety of hosting a business dinner. But even though hosting a business dinner may inspire a few butterflies to dance in your stomach, the following tips can ensure the night goes as smoothly as possible. * Know your client. Clients tend to have vastly different needs and personalities, so while the ambiance of one restaurant might appeal to some clients, that same atmosphere might not be so impressive to others. When choosing a restaurant, consider its ambiance and how well that matches up with the client you will be taking out to dinner. Some clients may prefer to make deals in more laid back locales, while others may prefer the five-star treatment. Taking the latter to an all-you-caneat buffet will hurt your chances of making a deal, while the former may take your willingness to spend lavishly on a meal at a five-star restaurant as an indicator that your company spends lavishly and ultimately passes such spending off on its clients. Understanding your client's personality should help you choose a restaurant that's likely to impress. * Don't go in blind. Unless a client requests a specific restaurant, try to choose a restaurant you have visited in

the past. This is beneficial in a variety of ways. When visiting a restaurant you frequent, you're in position to make recommendations with regard to the menu, and that insight can increase the chances that your client will enjoy his or her meal. When choosing a restaurant you're familiar with, you're also choosing one where you know the service is exceptional. If it wasn't, you would not keep going back. No one wants a business dinner to be overtaken by poor service, which, fairly or unfairly, will reflect negatively on you. * Avoid restaurants with gimmicks. Restaurants with gimmicks, such as those where the staff sings to customers celebrating a birthday, might be fun to visit with friends or family members, but such establishments

are best avoided when hosting business dinners. Gimmicks can interrupt a meal and make it difficult to make any headway on a business deal, so stick to restaurants where you won't be interrupted by celebratory staff members or drowned out by live music. * Don't just show up. Nothing is more awkward or unprofessional than taking a client to dinner and being forced to wait for a table. If you can't get a reservation at your preferred restaurant, then choose another establishment. Do not wing it and decide to wait for a table near the hostess or at the bar. * Avoid exotic restaurants. Unless your client requests a particular type of cuisine, avoid exotic restaurants with relatively limited menus. Clients may have certain food

allergies or aversions to particular types of food, so opt for a neutral restaurant with a menu that appeals to diners of various palates. If taking a client out for the second time and you remember the client mentioning a love of a particular cuisine, then the second dinner is a great time to indulge the client's love of that unique or exotic cuisine, especially if it's just the two of you. * Don't overi n d u l g e . Overindulging, whether it's eating too much or enjoying one too many glasses of wine, won't

impress the client. Resist the temptation to order the biggest steak on the menu and, if you choose to enjoy a cocktail, drink it slowly. A full stomach may make you drowsy and less attentive to your client, while a client will understandably question your judgement if you appear to be overindulging in alcohol. Hosting a business dinner is a significant responsibility not to be taken lightly. But hosts can employ a few simple strategies to calm their nerves and make sure the night goes smoothly.

American Red Cross seeks more blood donations this summer

The American Red Cross encourages blood donors to help prevent a summer shortage by rolling up a sleeve to give. Donors of all blood types are urged to schedule an appointment now, especially those with types O negative, B negative and A negative blood. Type O negative is universal and can likely be transfused to anyone who needs blood. Types A negative and B negative can be transfused to patients with either Rh positive or negative blood. These blood types are the most in demand and the first to run out if there is a shortage. To encourage more people to make time to donate blood before and after Independence Day, all presenting blood donors from June 30 through July 7 will receive a commemorative Red Cross Tshirt, while supplies last. The Red Cross must collect 15,000 blood donations every day to meet the needs of patients at 2,700 hospitals and transfusion centers across the country. To learn more and make an appointment to donate blood and help save lives, visit redcrossblood.org or call 1-800-RED-CROSS (1800-733-2767).

place to do it, don’t get me wrong…but this is what we want.” This is a project in its final stages of planning, and soon, Wabash will have an outdoor performance area shaded from the hot summer sun. “Wabash is already a stellar city to live in, but with your help, you can official make us a stellar community,” Weaver said as he wrapped up. Former Wabash M a r k e t p l a c e President Parker Beauchamp was next on the program as he shared the streetscape and connectivity project. “Now that Wabash is connected with the world, we want to connect Wabash to Wabash, said Beauchamp. “The streetscape and connectivity improvement project will do just that.” Improvements to the downtown streetscape were made a decade ago with improved sidewalks, lighting, landscaping, and trees. These improvements made downtown more inviting, attracting businesses and private investment. “Now we just want to finish what we started by connecting all of our streetscape phases, closing the loop on Market, Canal and Allen streets, all the way to Paradise Springs and back, connecting our cultural, heritage, recreation, arts, and entertainment assets once and for all,” Beauchamp continued. “We’ll be reactivating underutilized space and restore aging structure through new bricks, sidewalks, and gateways, adding green space, landscaping, lighting, and lots and lots of trees. Perhaps the most important aspect of this project is the transformation of downtown’s one-way streets into two-way streets, providing easier access to downtown businesses. Park Department Superintendent Todd Titus presented the vision for the future of the city’s trail network. The plan would extend the river walk 1.5 miles north and west to Wabash City

Park, connecting the river walk with the Wabash Cultural

Trail. “Upon completion, a 5-mile, alternate

transportation route will circle downtown Wabash, anchored by

Stellar committee tours Wabash...continued from page 31 This extension of the current trail will connect many important landmarks throughout the city, including parks, the library, churches, the museum, government buildings, retail shopping, the skate park, and the inclusive playground. “Recently, a trail

user said to me, ‘I think the trail system is one of the best things Wabash ever did,’” said Titus. “There are a lot of people who agree, and we’d like to see it keep going.” Executive Director of Tourism for the Wabash County Convention and

Visitor’s Bureau Christine Flohr then explained plans to improve the 13/15 Corridor, a stretch of road that sees more than 16,000 northbound vehicles each day. “The 13/15 Corridor Project is where our city’s story begins,” said Flohr. “It’s the

first hint about the character and quality of our people and businesses and represents the type of experiences travelers might have as they enter downtown. It greets travelers at the city’s edge and takes them into the heart of our community.” Currently, the

stretch of road between the Wabash River and downtown has missing sections of sidewalks, few crosswalks, no turn lanes, and outdated signage. “All of these flawed elements are dangerous to motorists and pedestrians and really give the appearance of apathy as you approach the downtown,” said Flohr. “But Wabash’s stakeholders are far from apathetic.” The project would improve on these aspects of the corridor, as well as adding

curb cuts, landscaping, trees, and decorative crosswalks, with a focus on improved traffic flow and safety for motorists and pedestrians. “First impressions really are the most important, and we need the gateway to our city’s story to reflect the commitment that we have to providing excellent quality places and life experiences,” said Flohr. “The 13/15 Corridor Project is critical to advancing our efforts for a better Wabash.” Rick Yoder, housing

director for Northeast Indiana Housing Partnership, presented the committee with plans for the twophase program to restore homes in the historic district. “Our vision through the owner occupied rehabilitation program is to assist low income home owners, who are disabled and or at least 55 years of age, make much needed repairs to their homes,” said Yoder, “such as modifying it for seniors to live in place, making them (continued on page 33)

more energy efficient, eliminating health and safety hazards, and improving the overall condition of their home.” The goal of the program is to provide 30 homeowners with up to $25,000 each to make the needed repairs. So far, they’ve received 17 applications, five of which were in Area 8, the target area. “When a homeowner makes improvements to their home, it encourages their neighbors to make improvements too, said Yoder. “This revitalizes neighborhoods, making them safer and stronger, and draws new residents to the area who are ready to take advantage of all Wabash has to offer.” Architect Brett Mathers presented plans for the Rock City Lofts Project, which would renovate the space above six storefronts, including Rock City Café, into new loft apartments. “As an architect, it’s about the purpose. It’s not just a building. It’s what you use it for; it’s how it meets the needs of the people in the community,” said Mathers. “So, as we looked at the opportunities on East Market Street, and we looked at the needs for housing in this community, one thing stood out. The seniors did not have an opportunity in Wabash. They would either have to stay in their existing homes or they would have to move outside the community to get the services they needed.” The $8 million project would allow up to 40 new residents to move downtown, putting them in close proximity to the Honeywell Center, Modoc’s Market, restaurants, clothing stores, and pharmacies. “It brings together, in one in this location, all of the best amenities this community has to offer,” said Mathers. This project will be acollaboration between the City of Wabash, the Economic Development

Group, the redevelopment commission, Wabash Marketplace, Living Well in Wabash County, and others. “This is a proven team of developers. They take on hard-touse historic properties, adapt them, and rebuild them,” said Mathers. “The beauty of working in Wabash [is] the people. They get things done and they get things done right.” Finally, Bill Konyha, president and CEO of the Economic Development Group of Wabash County, presented the finance plan. “Today, for the first time in the history of the Untied States, 50 percent of our population lives in urban communities. We are told by economists that by the year 2050, 75 percent of our population will live in urban areas,” said Konyha. “What this means is that communities like Wabash who do not invest in themselves, who do not create livable communities, communities that are attractive to young professionals and young families…they will simply cease to exist. The City of Wabash has every intention of being here in the next century. This is a community that invests in itself, has invested in itself, will continue to invest in itself, and by golly, we’ve got the young people in line now to hand it off to, and they will continue as well. “Our strategic investment plan includes essentially nine projects, which have been reviewed here today. Many of them are ready to go right now. Some of them are going to require a little extra work,” said Konyha. “But if we are selected and designated as a Stellar Community, we will accomplish this plan in 4 years. If we are not designated as a Stellar Community, we will still accomplish this plan, although it might take us 15 years. The total cost of the strategic investment

plan is currently at $28,335,517. Various sources of private investment are expected to account for $10,970,752. Local government has designated $4,220,000 to help fund the plan, $4 million of which will come from the redevelopment commission. An additional $450,000 has been identified from local sources, bringing the total local and private investment to $15,640,999, which accounts for 55.2 percent of the total project. The hope is that a Stellar Community designation will open the doors for the grants needed to make up the difference of $12,694,650 or 44.8 percent of the total. “It’s been my pleasure, under the leadership of the mayor over the last 8 years, to be a participant in the destruction of a whole bunch of silos and the creation of one great big sandbox,” said Konyha. ”We would hope that by the end of the day, the two things that will be indelibly etched into your minds will be, number onethe completely collaborative nature of this community, and number two- the fact that this strategic investment plan and our economic development plan are very well thought out.” Following the presentation, the Evaluation Committee was taken on a tour around town to the sites discussed. They also visited the site of projects completed since last year’s Stellar Communities tour. When the tour came to a close, the committee was quickly en route to another evaluation. Those who were key in making the day a success said everything went well and seemed optimistic about Wabash’s chances this year. Last year, Bedford and Richmond were designated as Stellar

Communities. Wabash came in third. Konyha thinks this year’s plan far exceeded that of last year. “I personally think we learned so much from last year’s, not only the presentation, but the plan that we submitted, that there’s almost no comparison,” Konyha said in the days following the tour and presentation. “I think that this year, our plan and our presentation were incredibly strong. Konyha noted that The Eagles Theatre really captured the committee’s imagination due to its function as a community center, providing both entertainment and education. It also brings people to Wabash from other communities. Additionally, he said the inclusive playground probably had the biggest “wow” factor. Many of the programs, such as the streetscape, façade, and Rock City Lofts, are already underway. Whereas last year, the Evaluation Committee was presented with financial plans for accomplishing certain projects, this year, they were shown steps that have already been taken. “We went in this time not just saying that we would do these things, we actually did them,” said Konyha. For now, community leaders are waiting anxiously for news of the winners, which they expect to come in mid-August. While missing out once again wouldn’t doom these projects, being designated as a Stellar Community would certainly be a huge boost to both the projects and the community as a whole. “If we aren’t named a Stellar Community, we will compete for additional grants to continue with these programs,” said Konyha, “but through Stellar, we will get a whole lot more.”

Manchester High School student graduates from Latter-day Saint Seminary Program Manchester High School senior, Brady Pyrah, graduated from the seminary program of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints on June 1. Over four years of high school, he studied the Old Testament, New Testament, Book of Mormon and history of the Latter-day Saint faith in a daily

50-minute class, which started bright and early at 7 a.m. In order to earn his graduation certificate, Brady had to attend the classes all four years of high school with at least 80 percent attendance and complete all required course study. Three other Wabash area high school students were also honored for com-

pleting the course of study this past year. In addition to his seminary and academic studies, Brady contributed through other school and community activities including playing varsity soccer. However, he found the benefits of attending seminary to be worth the time investment. As Brady observed,

He has been assigned to serve in the Pocatello, Idaho Spanish-speaking mission and will begin full-time service in October. “The dedication and devotion of these young people is awe inspiring!” said Ferril Sorenson, a leader who oversees eight congregations of the Church in northeast Indiana. He also praised the graduates and students for their work ethic and dedication. “They are each involved not only in
