Professional racer Jeff Alessi visits Wabash Cannonball MX

By Ashley Flynn features@thepapeofwabash.com Last week, professional motocross racer Jeff Alessi visited the Wabash Cannonball Motorcycle Club to host a two-day clinic for amateur riders. During his stay, Alessi camped out at the Wabash Cannonball MX and hung out with the boys while giving them tips on safety, body positioning and speed. “He’s been hanging out and making everyone feel like he’s one of us,” Nick Hobbs, member of the motorcycle club told The Paper of Wabash. Hobbs even took Alessi fishing, which is one of Alessi’s favorite hobbies besides motocross. Contacting Alessi was easier than expected. Hobbs just sent him a message on Facebook, and he responded. The two kept in contact and Alessi agreed to come do a clinic. After several attempts and rescheduling, Alessi found time to drop by in Wabash right after a monthlong trip in Italy. “I try to travel to help kids like this at least 10 weeks out of the year,” Alessi

told The Paper. “If I get a chance like this to go help out riders and give them things that helped me make it to where I am, then I definitely try to do it. It keeps me busy and focused on riding, and I love it.” When he’s not helping out kids, Alessi stays plenty busy with his races. He does about 17 super cross races a year and 12 motocross races. “We get about three weeks of breaks in between seasons, and they aren’t really breaks because we have to work harder to get ready for the next season,” Alessi said. Alessi, 24, has been riding dirt bikes since the age of three, and he has been racing since the age of four. His father, Tony Alessi, was professional dirt bike rider #799. When his son, Mike Alessi was born, he made him #800, and less than a year later Jeff was born and became #801. “We’re basically a racing family. My brother rode my dad’s bikes, and when he was done with them I got them. When we were young, we didn’t have a whole

from there they got homeschooled so they could travel and race. (continued on page 6)

Local farmer leads fast paced double life by Emily Armentrout Local farmer, Nathan Vrooman, has been farming since he was old enough to drive a tractor with his father, Jack.

Farming may not be a fast paced job, but his love of drag racing has him going speeds upwards of 165 miles per hour.

Growing up on his family’s farm, whether it be planting and harvesting crops or taking care of the hogs, farming has always been a part of Vrooman’s life. Racing became a part of Vrooman’s life in 1979 when he decided to fix up his first car, a 1968 Chevell. Since his first fix up, Vrooman has had a love for racing. He now races a 1991 Chevy Beretta, which he mostly fixes up on his own when the car needs repairs or added safety measures. Vrooman is part of the Super Gas drag racing class. Super Gas is a 9.90 second class, which is a drag class where making it to the finish line first doesn’t mean you won the race. “It’s not the first one there that wins. You can’t go faster than 9.90 seconds. If you go faster, like a 9.8 then you don’t win, unless the other guy goes faster than you. People think in drag racing the first one to the line wins, well not in this category. Mostly it’s only in the pros that the first one to the line wins. I’m running 168 miles per hour, but I can race a car that goes 140 miles per hour. He just starts further up the track that I do, and I catch him,” explained Vrooman.

Vrooman talked of the safety features he’s added that are required by the sport. “There is a diaper on the motor that catches oil if your engine goes. If someone leaks oil, accidents happen.” He also recently added more back brakes due to shorter shutdown space at some of the tracks. Most of Vrooman’s races take place in Indiana’s surrounding states. He doesn’t go much further than Michigan, Ohio or Kentucky. He usually runs in divisional races, but he does run a couple national events during the season. Vrooman hasn’t been in any big accidents, but he did recently have a big win. Vrooman won the NHRA Lucas Oil Drag Racing Series event in Norwalk, Ohio. According to draglist.com, “Vrooman used a perfect 0.00 second reaction time to take the win against Steve Theodor in Super Gas.” “The win last year at Norwalk was by far my favorite moment. That’s the most glory I have had racing so far. I still love to race, but a lot of the fun is the friends at the track,” said Vrooman. He would like to make it back to Norwalk this (continued on page 6)

Professional racer Jeff Alessi... continued from front page “My grandpa was our teacher, and he took us to all our races. He drove us across the country and was a really big influence on keeping us on track,” Alessi said. Their parents worked hard to fund the boys’ races in the first few years until they made it to the American Motorcycle Association professional level. “They sacrificed a lot for us, but luckily we got picked up by a couple of really good sponsors. It was hard on the family, but we made it work,” Alessi said. One of Alessi’s favorite riding

moments was riding alongside his brother Mike in the Cowboy’s newly built stadium in Dallas, Texas. “I was in first with my brother in second. It was really cool because we had the same gear on and the same bikes. We were really unique looking,” Alessi said. Both Alessi boys have suffered several injuries throughout their careers, which is one reason Jeff offers tips to younger riders. “One of the things I try to teach kids is to have the right body position. I don’t want kids sitting down on high-speed sections

and hitting a bump and getting hurt. A lot of it is safety, but it transitions to speed. If they know the right way to ride, they can pick up on speed,” Alessi said. There were approximately 10 boys who attended the clinic, and many of them have looked up to the Alessi brothers for years. “I love coming to the Midwest. They have some of the

biggest fans of the Alessi brothers you can get. I also really like the people, seeing green grass and riding the tracks (His favorite is the Red Bull Michigan track). In California, you don’t really get to enjoy life because everything is so fast paced. People here are very nice and humble,” Alessi said. But the boys at the clinic say the same about Alessi – he’s

very humble. “I just want to express how much he’s mingled with the kids. Some pro riders wouldn’t give you the time of day, let alone come hang out and meet you,” said Hobbs. “I’ve had a chance to live a normal life even though I’m not normal. I’ve had the chance with my injuries to know what a normal life is like, and I know there’s a

lot more to life than being a professional dirt bike rider,” Alessi said when asked how he stays grounded. This was the first big riding clinic the Wabash Cannonball Motorcycle Club has held for the kids. “It helps prevent injuries, and we had a lot of positive feedback,” said Don Baker, vice president of the motorcycle club.

Drag racing is a bit of a family sport for Vrooman. His brotherin-law, Doug Kroft, is also a drag racer and houses his car next to Vrooman’s in his garage, where they can work on their cars together and make them better. Vrooman has two sons, that he says he would be okay with them racing too. “Nate has never had much interest. Austin has

Duke Energy to help prepare Wabash business complex for potential industrial development

PLAINFIELD, Ind. — Duke Energy Indiana has selected a 135-acre parcel of land at the Wabash Northeast Business Complex in Wabash County, Ind., to participate in the utility’s 2013 Site Readiness Program. The Site Readiness Program is the cornerstone of Duke Energy’s economic development model. It identifies, evaluates, and improves industrial sites in the company’s service territory for potential industrial development. “This site, located at the northwest corner of the intersection of U.S. Highway 24 and State Road 13, is ideally suited to accommodate an advanced manufacturing project,” said Bart Beal, Duke

Energy Indiana vice president for community relations and economic development. “Two of the major components of successful industrial recruitment are competitive electric rates and build-ready sites.” As part of Duke Energy’s assessment of the property, top site-selection consultant McCallum Sweeney Consulting will conduct a comprehensive assessment. Duke Energy will collaborate with county leaders and local economic development professionals to develop a strategy for providing water, sewer, natural gas and electricity to the site. The parties may also recommend road improvements, ease-

ments and rights-ofway that would be required to develop the site, as well as steps necessary to mitigate any potential environmental impacts. Banning Engineering will produce final drawings and conceptual site plans. “The Duke Energy Site Readiness Program strengthens our ongoing efforts to attract industry to north-central Indiana,” said Bill Konyha, president and CEO of the E c o n o m i c Development Group of Wabash County. “We are always looking for ideas and innovation to help create new development and new jobs.” “For many years, Duke Energy has partnered with local

economic development organizations to help bring jobs and economic vitality to the communities we serve,” said Laura Sheets, Duke Energy Indiana north district manager. “We look forward to helping this location become a build-ready site for prospective large business and industrial companies.” In March 2013, Duke Energy launched a pilot program for its redesigned Site Readiness Program on a 166-acre parcel in Hancock County’s I-70 Business Corridor. The recommendations from the site consultant for this parcel have been delivered to local economic development officials. Ideal properties for

Local citizen credits postman for saving his life stomach pains so he came home to lie down. Shortly after, two stomach ulcers burst, and Fetter was losing blood quickly. His legs went numb, and he was unable to move, but he knew mail should be delivered soon. Hopeful that Banister was close, Fetter yelled for help. Banister had just passed Fetter’s apartment and was a few doors down, but he could hear someone calling out to him. At first he thought it was his imagination, but he walked back towards Fetter’s apartment and knocked on the door. “Pat? Are you in

by Ashley Flynn For 28 years, five days a week, Bryan Banister has been delivering mail to Wabash citizens. Banister faces rain, summer heat and snow during his routes, and sometimes he even saves a life. Pat Fetter moved into Meadowbrook approximately five years ago along a route that Banister has delivered for 10 years. The two had conversations on a regular basis, and Fetter knows just when mail is delivered – right after 11 a.m. On Sept. 29, 2012, Fetter had extreme

Banister called for an ambulance, i n f o r m e d Meadowbrook’s manager of the situation, and told a neighbor who came to be with Fetter. “I thought Pat was going to bleed to death, and I knew he definitely needed help fast,” Banister told The Paper of Wabash. “I wanted to make sure he got what he needed.” Fetter spent four days in the hospital and had seven pints of blood transfused into

him. “Parkview Hospital didn’t think I would make it out of there. They called my family in to be with me,” Fetter said. Fetter credits Banister for saving his life that day. “If he wasn’t walking by, I don’t think anyone would have called,” he said. “I just think it’s cool that he was looking out for someone. I just want to recognize him and the post office and give them a big thank you.” Banister’s co-workers describe him as a people-person who loves to talk to his customers. He admits that his favorite part of the job is interacting with customers, and he was glad to see Fetter back from the hospital. Banister has only had to contact emergency personnel on one other occasion when a woman kept falling over and hitting her head. Fetter and Banister still talk on a regular basis, but Banister is up for retirement whenever he chooses to take it. He says he plans on working another two or three years.

by Kalie Ammons Gerald W. Pankop, Private First Class, Army Veteran, WWII, Belgium, European Theater will be immortalized in N a t i o n a l Geographic’s video archives in the months to come. Mr. Pankop travels to Wabash County high schools to talk about his experiences at the Battle of Bulge in Belgium, where he earned his Purple Heart and Bronze Star the day before his nineteenth birthday. Before giving his speech at Southwood Jr.-Sr. High School, where his daughter Rita Griffith works as a teacher, Pankop was asked by Tara Ulmer, a social studies teacher, if he would mind if she recorded him. He was more than willing, thinking that he might be able to save some trips to the school. “But I didn’t know at the time that when she’s not teaching school, she works for National Geographic

in Washington, D.C. and she said that she’s going to take my video and put it in the archives, and she said it’ll be in the National Geographic archives until the building falls down! Which I think would be nice,” Pankop excitedly told ‘The Paper.’ As impressive as the recognition from National Geographic is, Pankop was just as thrilled for the next idea Ulmer had for his speech: “And she said when she got done pulling strings together at National Geographic, that she was going to put it on Youtube! And that goes all over Wabash County, and Germany and France and Spain and the world, you know? And I thought how neat that would be.” Pankop spoke about how this would help get his story out to everyone who is interested in the Second World War. He wishes he could give his speech everywhere he is asked, but is

already overwhelmed. “I do it, not for myself so much, but for the young people, like at the high schools. …It just throws me to pieces, because people in Wabash County, whoever’s interested in WWII, can see my talk.” In his speech, Pankop avoids gory details about the killing in war and focuses more on the life of the soldiers. He talks about sleeping in snowdrifts to keep warm, eating only three hot meals during his entire time in Belgium and wearing the same clothes for a month until he was hit with a mortar shell that shattered his leg “like a jigsaw puzzle.” Pankop leaves students with encouraging words about ability and necessity: “I say, you think you could do that? And everybody’s going ‘no way!’ And I say yes you can, if you had to, you could do it. They don’t realize that.”

Lt. Governor Ellspermann designates the cities of Bedford and Richmond as 2013 Stellar Communities Wabash was selected as one of six finalist communities to be considered for the grant Indianapolis - Lt. Governor Sue Ellspermann officially announced the communities of Bedford, located in the south central part of the state, and Richmond, in the east central region, have been designated the newest of Indiana’s Stellar Communities.

Launched in 2011, Stellar Communities is a collaboration between the Office of Community and Rural Affairs (OCRA), the Indiana Housing and C o m m u n i t y D e v e l o p m e n t Authority (IHCDA) and the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT). The program pools funding sources to assist communities in achieving their long-term com-

prehensive strategic goals for targeted areas of their community. “I congratulate Bedford and Richmond on their Stellar Communities designation. The revitalization projects proposed by both communities have regional value added approaches which will not only benefit their targeted areas, but will have an economic impact on surrounding commu-

Annual Purdue Extension Weed Day offers field trial tours WEST LAFAYETTE - Purdue Extension’s 2013 Weed Day will give participants a firsthand look at the effects of different herbicides on various field crops. The June 28 event is geared toward farmers, crop advisers and herbicide applicators. It will be held at the Throckmorton Purdue Agricultural Center, 8343 U.S. 231 S., Lafayette. Participants will have opportunities to view corn and soybean herbicide plots, as well as cover crop terminal trials and new herbicideresistant crop technology, said Bill Johnson, Purdue Extension weed scientist and Weed Day organizer. “Attendees will learn the importance of proper herbicide selection and appropriate timing,” he said. The program runs from 8:30 a.m. to midday. Maps will be provided for participants to take part in self-guided plot tours. Program organizers will be able to provide more information and directions to specific plots. The event is free, but participants should register at http://www.btny.purdue.edu/weedscience/temp/WeedDay2013.html or by contacting Johnson at wgj@purdue.edu.

nities as well,” said Lt. Governor Sue Ellspermann. “I would also like to congratulate each of the communities that were finalists on their efforts and dedication to planning for the future of their cities.” Bedford’s proposal centers on their downtown area and includes improved gateways, murals, streetscapes and parking as well as the addition of a Limestone Trail, façade renovations and downtown business development. The total cost estimate for their proposal is $19.8 million. “Thank you to Lt. G o v e r n o r Ellspermann and entire the Stellar Team; it is truly an honor to be designated as a Stellar Community. I am excited for the investment opportunities for downtown Bedford and the partnerships that I believe will grow our education and workforce development efforts,” said Bedford Mayor

Shawna M. Girgis. “I would also like to thank our local community for giving their time and investments towards our proposal.” Richmond’s proposal includes positively enhancing the quality of life through the addition of senior housing, owner occupied rehabilitation, improved sidewalks and bike trails, as well as downtown façade, second and third story living options and downtown Wi-Fi. The total cost estimate for their proposal is $19.9 million. “Richmond is positively honored by the Stellar Communities designation and with so much local effort and support for the proposal, I know we are ready to move forward and continue working hard to plan for the future of our great city,” said Richmond Mayor Sally Hutton. Lt. Governor Ellspermann and agency representatives will travel to

Bedford on Wednesday, June 19, and Richmond on Monday, June 24, for Stellarbration events to celebrate the designation with each community. Details will be announced at a later date. Funding for the designation program comes from multiple existing federal funds. Both cities have proposed projects involving public and private dollars; Bedford’s total is $19.8 million and Richmond’s total is $19.9 million. The projects are proposals and no specific funds are guaranteed—both communities will meet with representatives from the state agencies in the coming weeks to discuss details of the proposed projects including feasibility, available funding, timeframes and partner participation. Twenty-four communities submitted proposals for the 2013 Stellar Communities program round. After evaluating the plans,

the top six communities were chosen as Finalist Communities, which required further information to be submitted. Site visits were then conducted by staff from each agency following a standard agenda and set of questions. North Vernon and Greencastle were pilot communities in 2011 and Princeton and Delphi were named in 2012. The Stellar Communities program was nationally recognized last year with the Presidential Award for Innovation by the Council of State C o m m u n i t y D e v e l o p m e n t Agencies. Eligible applicants must be a Local Unit of Government, which includes a city or an incorporated town not located within an entitlement community. The community must also be eligible to apply for Community Development Block Grants to be considered.

Special program on the Grand Kankakee Marsh, a Lost Paradise The North M a n c h e s t e r Historical Society has the opportunity to present a special program on Monday, July 8 called “Everglades of the North: The

Story of the Grand Kankakee Marsh.” This one-hour television documentary explores the history and ecology of an area that was home to some of the highest

concentrations of wildlife on the planet. Presidents and royalty came there to hunt, and the marsh seemed to be an endless natural resource. Today less than five percent of the wetlands have survived man’s advances.

This video has been aired on PBS stations in northwest Indiana, South Bend and the Chicago area. It has been picked up for national distribution. Come and be among the first in the area to see this excellent, highly professional

presentation. It is an important story about Indiana ecology. The history of the marsh and what happened to it is absolutely fascinating. The program will be held in the Assembly Room of Timbercrest Senior

Living Community, 2201 East Street, at 6:40 p.m. There is no cost for the program. All are welcome. While many attend only the program, the public is also invited to come to the Assembly Room at 6 p.m. for a meal prior

to the presentation. For those who wish to attend the dinner, reservations must be made no later than noon on Friday, July 5. Reservations may be made by calling Mary at 260-982-1813 or 260-982-0672.

Along with literacy instruction and enrichment activities such as art, music, physical activity and character development, SPARK will also provide a nutritious breakfast, lunch, and snack for students every day. Why is SPARK important? For the nine months of the year while school is in session, youth make academic gains.

“Summer learning loss” refers to the loss of skills and knowledge over the course of the summer months when youth are not in school. Youth that lack access to enriching experiences during the summer are hurt the most. These students, on average, experience two months of reading loss over the summer months. For many youth, learning loss becomes a significant obstacle to staying on track when school resumes. What is a Reading

URBANA

June 26, 2013

Mary Ann Mast 260-225-0654 mamast1906@ comcast.net

UPDATE ON MATT DAZEY: Matt, who is working for Thompson Harvesting in Burdett, Kansas, has let his family here know that the wheat harvest in the west began late because of dry weather. Matt and the other two young men on the harvesting crew spent their first week or so building fence and doing odd jobs. This past week wheat harvesting began in Oklahoma and Matt drove the combine for 94 hours with temperatures from 90 to 105 degrees. The first area they are working in totals about 2,700 acres. Farmers in our area will be interested to know that the yield is usually 10 to 15 bushels of wheat per acre and that is considered normal, as many of the fields are not irrigated. Wheat harvested from irrigated fields is a little higher. Matt said their first Sunday off they visited Oklahoma City. The harvest crew works six days a week so on Sundays they head to the nearest town to find a restaurant and see the sites. You can visit the T h o m p s o n Harvesting website for pictures taken during the 2012 harvest. No pictures for this harvest season have been posted yet. THANKS TO RED CROSS BLOOD DONORS: The Urbana Yoke Parish Outreach Committee sponsored a Red Cross Blood Drive on June 13 at the Urbana Community building. There were 24 donors, two of which were first time donors. Organizer Melissa Wilcox said “Thank you so much for giving the gift of life! The Committee would like to thank the Urbana Lions Club for the use of the Community Building. Thank you to Carol Krom for registering donors.

Thank you to Carla Krom, Lana Long, and the Urbana Yoke Parish Women’s Guild for donating cookies. Mark your calendars for the next Blood Drive on Aug. 22. This will be the annual Haupert Memorial Blood Drive in memory of Rod and Sarah Haupert. Watch this column for more information. DO YOU KNOW SOMEONE WHO IS LEGALLY BLIND and would like to have newspapers, magazines, and other publications read to them through a free radio service from NEIRRS (North East Indiana Radio Reading Service)? A former Northfield teacher, Barb Bickel, reads recipes on a cooking show that airs twice a month on the NEIRRS station. Other volunteers read the newspapers from several cities, including the Fort Wayne News Sentinel and Journal Gazette, obituaries, sports schedules, several magazines, and other specialty shows. A rural Wabash woman just received her radio and is thrilled with the information it gives. If you would like more information you can “Google” their website or give me a call and I will help you know how to go about receiving a free radio. The radio only has the NEIRRS station. NEIRRS will send with the radio a dayby-day listing of the programs available. S O F T B A L L TEAMS NEEDED FOR AUGUST 3 AND 4: If you would like to participate in an adult softball tourney during the Urbana Festival, please contact Ed Howard at 260-3482628. The teams can be all men, all women, or a mixture of the two. SHANE BROTHERS QUARTET IN URBANA ON JULY 7: The Urbana Yoke Parish worship on July 7 will be at 10 a.m. in the “grove,” weather permitting. The grove is the wooded area in Urbana on State Road 13 across from St. Peter’s Church.

Bring lawn chairs or blankets for seating. Following the musical church service there will be a carryin dinner. Bring a dish of food to share. Table service will be provided. The Shane Brothers Quartet is based in Bluffton. They have recorded more than 40 albums. The quartet is made up of three brothers: Mike who sings lead tenor, Jeff who sings baritone, Rick who sings bass, and Jim Loving, the only non-family member, who sings first tenor. Rick has been singing professionally since 1992. When it became possible for the other brothers to join Rick and enlist the help of Jim Loving, their harmonies perfected. Jeff says, “We enjoy each other’s company, and we love the message of the music. Again, it’s all about encouraging Believers.” The group appears yearly at churches, conventions, fairs, RV parks and other special events. The Urbana Yoke Parish extends a welcome to any and all who would like to come and hear the Shane Brothers Quartet on July 7. U R B A N A

THIS IS A PICTURE OF URBANA HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS during the years of 1948, 1949, and 1950. I am not sure why there is a basketball in the picture as there were no girls’ basketball teams during these years nor do I have any idea why Mrs. Antrim is pictured with the group. If anyone knows anything about his picture, please let me know. I have identified as many people as I can, but I am not sure they are correct.

The provisions for the conservation, energy and rural development titles of the proposed farm bill benefit citizens and c o m m u n i t i e s throughout Indiana, including many in the mostly urban first and seventh Congressional Districts. Since the beginning of the current farm bill debate, Indiana farmers have been supportive of efforts to reduce federal spending by curtailing some farm bill programs, specifically direct payments. On the heels of the worst drought in decades, it is more apparent than ever that crop insurance works. Even under these dire circumstances, farmers did not have to come to

Manchester Main Street’s Eel River Arts Festival A Success Manchester Main Street is extremely grateful for all the wonderful community support that helped make last weekend’s first-ever Eel River Arts Festival a huge success. The June 1415 event, showcasing North Manchester’s innovative cooks, talented entertainers and amazing artisans, would not have been possible without the partnership of the Town of North M a n c h e s t e r, Manchester Garden Club, Zion Evangelical Lutheran Church and The Firehouse. The Eel River Gardens, located at the intersection of Main and Market Streets in the heart of downtown, was beautifully transformed into a festive venue for creativity, imagination and

fun. What better way to highlight our town than to view it against the backdrop of North Manchester’s new historic streetscape and overlooking the Eel River? Friday’s ticketed “Celebration of the Arts” Party’s select appetizers were prepared by the Brewhouse Bistro, Main View and KenapocoMocha. Main View and Zook’s Cafe created exclusive dinner selections while Nordmann’s Nook served up delectable desserts. Main View provided cash bar and specialty drinks. Live local musical entertainment was courtesy of the North Central String Association, Mandy Underwood and Rachel Brandenburg, and DJ Paul Howard. Event

guests took home numerous one of a kind silent auction treasures generously donated by area businesses and artisans as well as designed their own personalized gift bag party favors. Saturday’s Art Fair featured the unique pottery, jewelry, painting, mixed media and photography of 15 area artists – Jeremy A s h c r a f t (ThruTheShutter), Kellie Brace (DorothyIlene Gallery), Hannah Burnworth (Milk House Studio), Carlene Cripe (CC’s Paris Flea Market), Janet Ecklebarger (Glean Design), Gazina Jumper (Z’s Photography), Karen Meyer (Nouveau Glass Works), Joe Pelka (Pelka Ceramics), Terry Pulley (Art Work), Sally Rich (Blue

are out of their dayto-day routines, and when student donors are on break. High school and collegeage donors give up to 20 percent of the blood collected through the Red Cross. Every two seconds, someone in America needs blood. Sick and injured adults and children need red cells, platelets or plasma for scheduled and emergency surgeries, for the treatment of diseases like cancer, and for care related to accidents and trauma. Someone injured in a serious accident may need up to 100 pints of life-sustaining blood. People under emergency care typically receive O negative blood since it can be transfused to anyone, regardless of their blood type. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Supplies of type O negative need to be available at a momentâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s notice to help save lives,â&#x20AC;? said Whitman. â&#x20AC;&#x153;What greater sense of American spirit can you have than knowing that blood will be there if and when you need it?â&#x20AC;?
