THE PAPER June 29, 2011

Applicants complete testing requirements for Sheriff’s deputy positions

by Danielle Smith The June 27 meeting of the Wabash C o u n t y Commissioners began with County H i g h w a y Superintendent John Martin presenting paperwork regarding the reclassification of various county roadways. Martin hopes to reclassify these roadways as “major collectors”, which would make them eligible for federal funding of repairs. The roadways include: America Road from SR 124 to the southern county line; CR 300 E from Servia to SR 114; CR 300 E from Lagro to CR 800 N; CR 200 W from U.S. 24 to CR 200 N; and CR 700 W from Old 24 to Roann. Wabash County Sheriff Bob Land reported that, after 26 new book-ins over the weekend, the Wabash County jail is now housing 89 inmates. He is considering moving some inmates to Miami County Jail to alleviate overcrowding. Land also informed the Commissioners that he is exploring options to make the Sheriff ’s Department more handicap accessible. He will speak with the Wabash City Street Department regarding this matter. Land informed the Commissioners that (continued on page 7)

Proudly Serving Wabash County Since 1977

There is still HOPE for the uninsured in Wabash County by Amanda Hoff When some people think about going to the doctor’s office they cringe in fear of what they might hear. They don’t want to know what is wrong with them or what medications they will have to add to their ever-growing lists. However, they go anyway because they know they need to. Others, however, have to consider something else as well. Their minds are not preoccupied with medications and the poking and prodding they will have to endure. Instead, they worry about the bill they will have to pay afterward. Some will even avoid doctor’s visits because of their lack of insurance and, as a result of no insurance, an inability to pay for treatment. There is hope in the future though; 85 HOPE that is. 85 HOPE will be a notfor-profit, free healthcare center located on Ash Street across from the Wabash Hospital. The hospital owns the building and is letting the clinic use the space for practically nothing. “It is a very little office and we hope to outgrow it soon, but right now the price is right,” said Dr. Rose Wenrich, president of the 85 HOPE board. “It’s a place for us to start.”

The clinic is set to open Dec. 1 and in the beginning will be operational one day a month on Thursday from 2 to 6 p.m. After a couple months of this, the clinic hopes to be open at least one day a week if they see a need for it. However, before they can accept their first patients in December, a lot of things need to fall into place. The board for 85 HOPE has applied for nonprofit status and has set up a PO Box. “Now that we’ve applied and we have a board, we’re at the point that we can do fundraising,” Wenrich said. The board does have a fundraising committee but has yet to host any events. Plans are in the making though, and many have committed to approaching churches and service clubs to ask if they would like to donate to the clinic. Board members include Erin Shaw as vice president, Chris Goff, J. Dean Gifford, Jane Skeans, Bob McCallen, Kevin Besore, Mark Sapusek, Marilyn Custer-Mitchell, Claudia Rosen and Donna Bogert. “Everyone has a different skill set,” Wenrich said. The board ranges from doctors, RNs and nurse practitioners to someone who

DR. ROSE WENRICH is president of the 85 HOPE Board of Directors. 85 HOPE will be a nonprofit, free healthcare center, serving uninsured Wabash residents. Board Members include: Erin Shaw, vice president; Chris Goff; J. Dean Gifford; Jane Skeans; Bob McCallen; Kevin Besore; Mark Sapusek; Marilyn Custer-Mitchell; Claudia Rosen; and Donna Bogert.

Wenrich calls a computer guru. One of the other steps is finding a parttime employee once the organization has enough funding. Although all of the doctors, RNs, and practitioners who will treat the patients will be volunteers, the one part-time employee will be paid. The board has begun to interview candidates for this position, which Wenrich

help.” Some people, like the ones who only worry about going to the doctor’s office because of what could be wrong with them, might be unable to see why Wabash needs a free healthcare clinic – the 85 HOPE board never had to wonder about that. Many of them, the doctors and nurses, have seen countless patients come into their offices without insur-

ance and seen them struggle to come up with a way to pay for treatment and medication. “We all know somebody without insurance who is struggling,” Wenrich said. “We know people who have had complications from high blood pressure because they couldn’t come in and get their medication.” The board has also done a “needs assess(continued on page 6)

Program is notable for choreographed drumlines and reallife messages

by Brent Swan On July 4 at Wabash Church of the Nazarene, 902

Manchester Ave., Wabash, people will have an opportunity to experience music

with a meaning, performed by Sheltered Reality. Sheltered Reality is a nonprofit musical organization with performing members all over the Midwest. Members pair percussion instruments with choreography and motivational messages. While completing his dissertation for his doctorate in intrinsic motivational theory, Steven Schlosser felt the calling to take what he later described as a “chance of his lifetime” and make Sheltered Reality his

career. Centered primarily on inspiring participants to become better individuals and to take action to assist others to succeed in life as well; Schlosser’s program has grown from 150 shows in its first year, to 315 shows in 2010. Each show features participants from local Sheltered Reality groups consisting of young adults with some members being as young as four years old. One local resident, Eric Armentrout,

first encountered the group four years ago. “When I first saw them perform, I immediately thought we need to get a group started here in Wabash,” Armentrout said. “I thought of it as a church-related, or a church outreach type of program, but realized it’s too big for any one church to manage.” Currently, an effort is being launched by Armentrout and other volunteers to gauge the interest in creating a local Sheltered Reality group. As part of this effort, (continued on page 6)

Wabash County Sheriff’s Department, U.S. Marshals check sex offenders On June 21, members of the Wabash County Sheriff ’s Department and the U.S. Marshals Service conducted a joint operation to ensure registered sex offenders residing in Wabash County are residing in their documented homes and compliant with the laws set forth for Indiana sex offenders. County Wabash currently has 60 registered sex offenders who were each visited by teams of Sheriff ’s Officers and U.S. Marshals to validate that they were in compliance with the sex offender registry laws. Of the 60 sex offenders, 47 were either located at their registered addresses or verified to be residing at their registered addresses. Two registered sex offenders were found not to be living at their registered addresses. Criminal investigations are being completed on these two individuals and charging information will be forwarded to the Wabash County Prosecutor’s Office. The remaining 11 sex offenders’ residences could not be validated and additional investigations will be completed to determine if they are compliant. In addition to these 60 registered sex offenders, Wabash County has 30 sex

offenders incarcerated in various detenfacilities tion throughout Indiana. Wabash County currently has outstanding arrest warrants on two convicted offenders charging each with Failure to Register, a Class D Felony. The two offenders are Kenton Wayne Messmore, 65, and Billy D. Taylor, 29. The U.S. Marshals Office also has open investigations on both offenders. If anyone has any information on the whereabouts of either Mr. Messmore or Mr. Taylor, they are asked to contact the Wabash County S h e r i f f ’ s Department at 260563-8891 or Wabash Crime Stoppers at 260-563-5821. The Wabash County Sheriff ’s Department and the U.S. Marshals in the Northern District of Indiana are working together to develop a partnership in order to locate and apprehend registered sex or violent sex offenders who fail to comply with Indiana’s laws. Sheriff Bob Land stated, “We appreciate the extra manpower and resources that the United States Marshals Service have provided us in tracking and ensuring compliance of our registered sex offenders. This operation has shown that

any facet of law enforcement can work together to ensure the safety of our children. The message is clear, law enforcement at the federal and local levels are committed to the enforcement of the Adam Walsh Act and local sex offenders laws. If you are a sex offender, you have seen, or will be seeing a law enforcement team at your door to verify your compliance with sex offender registration laws. If you are a sex offender who is not compliant, you will be arrested.” Sheriff Land added, “I would like to thank the members of my department and the members of the U.S. Marshals Office that worked together on this operation. The team members were Sergeant Steve Hicks, Reserve Deputy Carrie Babbit, Reserve Deputy Scott Greiner, Deputy U.S. Marshal William Boothe (Sex O f f e n d e r Investig ations Coordinator),

There is still HOPE for the uninsured... Continued from front page ment” in Wabash to determine if the clinic is in high demand. After conducting this assessment, they esti-

mated that approximately 22 percent of the Wabash County population does not have health insurance,

which equals more than 9,000 people. These are people that most likely don’t have a family doctor, do not go to regular check-ups, and are not getting even the basic care that they need. “People get lost in the cracks all the time,” Wenrich said. “So, that’s what we’ll be there for.” Those who don’t have insurance often wait too long to go to the doctor so their condition worsens and they have to go to the emergency room. With the free clinic, there would be a worry-free alternative. Another reason why the board thought that Wabash should have a

free clinic is because every other county Wabash around already has one. There is Bridges in Grant County, one in Huntington, Matthew 25 in Fort Wayne, and Miami County has another one. So, it seemed like an easy decision to make. “We’re inspired by the gospel to provide free primary healthcare services to the uninsured, low-income residents of Wabash County,” Wenrich said as she quoted 85 HOPE’s mission statement. “So that’s where our hearts are and why we felt that there was a real need in this county.” There are, of course, restrictions to who the clinic can treat. Because they are a free healthcare clinic, they will only treat those who are uninsured. “If you have Medicaid, Medicare, or anything from a private health insurance, you wouldn’t be eligible,” Wenrich said. Because seniors over the age of 65 are eligible for Medicare and generally it is easy for

children to get on Medicaid, the clinic expects to see patients in between those two age groups. “If kids qualify, we’d be happy to see kids,” Wenrich said. The clinic will be open to all ages and those who are uninsured but they will also require patients to meet certain income requirements as well. This is to prevent people who have enough money for health insurance and just don’t have it from coming to the clinic. Since 85 HOPE will only be open for short periods of time, they need to make sure that they are seeing the people who really have no other option. They will be there to treat the patients that cannot afford to go somewhere else and would normally go untreated otherwise. The only other limitation the clinic has is what procedures and treatments they can perform. 85 HOPE will not be operated like an emergency room. It is not for surgeries, narcotic prescriptions, x-

rays, or sutures. The volunteer staff can, however, see patients for general medical purposes like treating colds, flu, and various other mild conditions. “We can at the very least triage and find out what they need to do,” Wenrich said. “We want to be there to be some care. If they need care beyond what we can provide, we can guide them to the right place.” The clinic, although restricted in prescribing certain medications, plans to help patients who struggle to afford their medications. “There is a program were we can put their data and income data in and send it to the company that makes the medicine and try to get patient assistance so they can get their drugs for free,” Wenrich said. “The clinic is going to be completely free as far as medical care, and the meds, we’ll do our best to make them free as well.” Considering 85 HOPE is a nonprofit organization, they will need many donations

to make sure they can begin seeing patients. Monetary donations are always needed but the clinic also needs office and medical supplies including, pens, pencils, copy paper, paper tablets, staplers, paper clips, file cabinets, shelves, tissues, paper towels, bandages, tongue depressors, rubbing alcohol, cotton balls, stethoscopes, ear/eye scopes, blood pressure cuffs, antibacterial soap, biohazard containers, and exam table paper. Monetary donations will be used to purchase medical supplies, hire staff, and offset the cost of prescriptions and/or tests patients may need. Those who are interested in monetary donations can send them to 85 HOPE, PO Box 27, Wabash, IN, 46992. Those who wish to make a donation of office or medical supplies should contact a board member.

Sheltered Reality uses music... Continued from front page Sheltered Reality will perform July 4 at the Wabash Church of the Nazarene during its annual Fourth of July celebration beginning at 7 p.m. “What we are hoping to do is to use the Fourth of July event to get people acquainted with Sheltered Reality – who they are, what they do, and what they stand for,” Armentrout explained. “The ultimate goal would be to create a Wabash comSheltered munity Reality group. These groups are a tremendous opportunity that will allow young people to get involved with and ultimately help them.” Throughout the Midwest and encompassing over 12 states, local Sheltered Reality groups are made up of young adults who need, or are looking for, some form of program or activity they can relate to. Each group then uses music and education as a way to reach out to their audiences as they are allowed to

perform with any other group, at any other show, they so choose. Featuring a message centered on facts, statistics and real-life stories; each program ends with character education and ideas for action. “There are usually six to nine songs per program, and while the kids are playing, the speaker talks to the crowd,” Armentrout said. “If you come to this program, he is going to get you up there and take part in the production; one of the neat things about this program is the level of audience participation.” Regionally, a Sheltered Reality group based in Frankfort was started in February, joining groups in Toledo and Warren, Ohio. All three groups plan to attend the program at the Wabash Church of the Nazarene, providing local youth with a firsthand glimpse into what members could expect. “What we are hoping

to do, is to have this group come in on the Fourth of July and show the members of

the community what they do, with the ultimate goal of using that as a platform to contin-

ue it here in Wabash,” Armentrout said. “I have seen this enough that I can now go to a

program and from the first stroke of the drum, I know what’s coming, and I can

watch the crowd’s reaction. They don’t know what’s going on, or what to expect, and it’s

The FDA announced the nine cigarette health warnings required to appear on every pack of cigarettes sold in the United States and in every cigarette advertisement. This bold measure is aimed at making sure that every American understands the dangers of smoking. Graphic warning labels for cigarette packs sold in the U.S. are a new opportunity to encourage smokers to receive frank and honest information about

quitting each and every time they purc h a s e cigarettes. Each warning will be accompanied by 18 0 0 - Q U I T - N O W, increasing the likelihood that smokers who want to quit will be successful. The FDA’s new warning labels are a proven way to educate smokers and others, including youth, about the dangers of tobacco use and encourage smokers to quit. The new warnings are a huge improvement over the current U.S. ciga-

rette warning labels, which are barely noticeable and have not been changed in decades. The new warnings are a powerful complement to the efforts to reduce smoking, not a substitute. The FDA selected nine images from the originally proposed 36 after reviewing the relevant scientific literature, analyzing the results from an 18,000 person study and considering more than 1,700 comments from a variety of groups, including the tobacco industry, retailers, health professionals, public health and other advocacy groups, academics, state and local public health agencies, medical organizations and individual consumers.

2012, all cigarettes for manufactured sale or distribution in the United States will need to include the new graphic health warnings on their packages. The introduction of these warnings is expected to have a significant public health impact by decreasing the number of smokers, resulting in lives saved, increased life expectancy, and improved health status. These new cigarette warnings, which were proposed in November 2010, were required under the Family Smoking Prevention and Tobacco Control Act. This national legislation that was signed into law in 2009 provided the FDA with the authority to regulate tobacco products. The U.S. will join 43 other

countries that already require graphic pictures or images on cigarette packs designed to discourage smoking. Tobacco use remains the number one preventable cause of death in the U.S. and in Indiana, killing more than 27 Hoosiers every day and causing over $2 billion each year in health care costs. As the warning labels encourage smokers to try to quit, all smokers/tobacco users have access to proven methods that help them succeed in quitting, including counseling and medications. The Indiana Tobacco Quitline is a resource that all adult Hoosiers can use. They can simply call 1-800-Quit-Now to speak with a trained coach. In Wabash County there is a cessation, diet, and exercise program to help improve the health of the tobacco user. This class is offered at the YMCA. There is also a class for pregnant women that smoke to help them quit to protect the baby’s health. There are many options available. Just call the Wabash County Tobacco Free Coalition, 260-5712464, for help or to answer any questions.

Civic band leads Independence Day celebration at Manchester College

A celebration sure to please Uncle Sam kicks off at 8:30 p.m. on July 4 on the Manchester College campus. More than 1,000 guests are expected for the popular free community party and 10 p.m. fireworks. The Manchester Civic Band, led by Reggie Smith, will set the tone for the festivities with patriotic tunes and everyone’s favorite toe-tappers.

Following the 9 p.m. welcome, community residents will give patriotic readings, led by World War II Iwo Jima veteran Bart Corricelli, former commander of the Eel River American Legion Post. Manchester College underwrites the $5,000 fireworks display on its athletics fields, on the east edge of campus off East Street. Volunteers of the North Manchester

Fire Department set off the fireworks. Guests may want to bring chairs and blankets for seating during the band performance, behind the MC Physical Education and Recreation Center (PERC). Bleachers on the athletics fields provide optimum viewing for the fireworks. North Manchester Rotary will sell hotdogs, popcorn, pop and water to benefit

community projects and reading programs. For the safety of guests and property, personal fireworks, including sparklers, are forbidden. The

Ag shippers raise grade for railroads in checkoff-funded survey

The 47 million tons of soybeans, soybean meal and soybean oil that crisscross the United States each year must make it to their delivery points on time – or within reason. A recent soybean-checkoff-funded survey shows most major railroad companies do a pretty good job getting them there. The U.S. agricultural shippers questioned for the annual Soy Transportation Coalition (STC) survey gave Union Pacific (UP) the highest rating in everything from on-time performance to customer service.

Burlington Northern Santa Fe (BNSF) railway came in second, and Canadian National (CN) railway came in third with the most dramatic overall improvement from last year. Overall satisfaction rated 10 percent higher than last year, according to the survey responses. “I am pleased to see the companies that ship our soybeans think the railroads are doing a better job than last year,” said Roy Bardole, USB Global Opportunities Committee vice chair, USB representative to the STC and a soybean farmer from Rippey, Iowa.

“Transportation infrastructure is a top priority for USB and efficiency and service are critical when it comes to transporting U.S. soybeans to our customers via rail.” The seven railroads classified as Class I include the following: the UP, BNSF, CN, the Canadian Pacific railway, CSX Transportation, Kansas City Southern railway and the Norfolk Southern railway. The full results of the survey, including a copy of the questionnaire, can be accessed at www. soytransportation.org.

rain date for the celebration is July 5 – same times and place. For additional information, including directions and a map, visit www.manchester.edu.

Manchester College continues campus transformation with new Academic Center Manchester College is transforming the learning environment for its business, education and liberal arts students with construction of a $9.1 million Academic Center on its North Manchester campus. In just 14 months, the 52-year-old HollKintner Hall will open as an Academic Center fine-tuned to 21st century challenges and opportunities – merging contemporary learning with timeless liberal arts study. The renovation rep-

resents several important Manchester College values, said President Jo Young Switzer. “We want to use our resources responsibly, we are careful stewards and strategic planners and we are putting students first,” she added. Just as the College’s 6-year-old Science Center directly across the mall enhances learning and enrollment in biology, chemistry, mathematics, computer science, physics, and environmental studies-phar-

Cutting Edge Family Dentistry • Digital Xrays • Laser treatment for cold sores • Implant placements • General and Cosmetic Dentistry • Light sedation and nitrous oxide • Extractions

macy, the Academic Center poses a perfect opportunity for similar growth in the liberal arts. State-of-the-art pedagogical technology and interactive, collaborative, engaging spaces fill the designs by architect MSKTD & Associates Inc. of Fort Wayne. General contractor for the 52,000-square-foot structure is Michael Kinder & Sons Inc. of Fort Wayne. In addition to 16 classrooms, the Academic Center will house faculty offices, study lounges, conference rooms, a small lecture auditorium, a peace studies library, and areas for language study, psychology research, video editing and accounting multi-media. Departments that will find permanent homes in the

Academic Center: accounting and business, communication studies, economics, education, English, finance, history and political science, management, marketing, modern languages, peace studies, psychology, religion and philosophy, sociology and social work. All of these programs have resided in the century-old Administration Building, the 63-yearold Calvin-Ulrey Building and, with enrollment recent increases, a retrofitted Holl-Kintner, which had closed when the Science Center opened. (Art and music programs will continue in the Winger adjacent Building and Wine Recital Hall.) Marcie CoulterKern, associate professor of psychology,

The work is scheduled to be completed in 14 months. (photo provided) is excited about the research space that will come with the Academic Center. Psychology is a popular major at Manchester, engaging more than 90 students. Many present graduate-level research at professional conferences. The Academic Center “will facilitate new and innovative ways to teach and to

research,” CoulterKern said. “We will have computer labs and research labs, places to display our research and moreefficient (and climatecontrolled) places to work with students.” The three-story building, when it opens for classes in fall 2012, also will feature a first-floor Welcome Center for admissions, an atri-

um and café. Fundraising continues for the Academic Center, including naming opportunities for classrooms, offices, departments and other areas. For more about Manchester College, and gifts to the Academic Center, connect at www.manchester.edu or 260-982-5218.

Chili for Charity announces recipients

Lisa M Strieter DDS Mon. 9 a.m. - 6 p.m. Tues. - Thurs. 7 a.m. - 4 p.m. 4545

The Wabash Cannonball Chili for Charity board of directors and commit-

tee has selected 10 nonprofit organizations to benefit from this year’s annual chili cook-off. Those chosen include: 85 Hope, ARC of Wabash County, Honeywell Center’s Education Outreach Program, Juvenile Mentoring Program, Manchester Early Learning Center, Special Olympics, Wabash County Cancer Society, The Women’s C l u b h o u s e , Winchester Senior

Center and the Youth Service Bureau. “Reviewing the applications and selecting the charities is a difficult process,” said Todd Titus, a board member for the organization. “There are so many worthy nonprofit groups serving our community.“ Thirty organizations submitted an application in an effort to be considered as a benefactor from the one-day fundraising event.

The ninth annual chili tasting is scheduled for Oct. 15 at Paradise Spring Historical Park, with gates opening at noon. The Wabash Cannonball Chili for Charity has donated a total of $200,000 back to the community since the first cook-off in 2002. Every dollar has remained in Wabash County with the exception of $500, which was given to the chili cook-off held in Baghdad, Iraq, between Army troops

and Air Force personnel to help the Boys and Girls Clubs of Iraq. “Ever since we started this cook-off nine years ago at the Old Kettle Saloon, the best part has always been helping others and having fun while doing it,” expressed Steve Bowman, one of the founders of what is now known as the largest annual chili cook-off east of the Mississippi River.

There’s got to be a way out of here

your life are no different from what others experience. And God is faithful. He will not allow the temptation to be more than you can stand. When you are tempted, he will show you a way out so that you can endure.” If you find yourself in need of a way out, use the many “exits” that are available to you. If you are unsure what these resources are, call your church or The Access Youth Center and we will be happy to help. Access Youth

Center, 74 W. Canal St., 260-563-2070, is open Mon. - Fri., 3:30 4:30 p.m. for the summer feeding program, ages 1-18; Wednesday, 4:30 - 6 p.m. for Teen Church, middle/high school ages; Friday Open Night, 4:30 - 8 p.m. for middle/high school ages; and Saturday Open Night, 6 - 9 p.m. for middle/high school ages. Access Late Nights will be announced. Friend us on Facebook.

How much time have you spent thinking about exit signs? Honestly, in your whole life maybe just a few minutes? Exits are one of those things we really don’t put that much thought into until we need them; and we only need them when we want to get out of something. Think about it: if you want to get out of a room, you use the exit; need to get off the interstate, look for the exit sign. The same is true if you are caught up in a tangle of addiction, whether it is an addiction to a substance or to a relationship. To get out, look for the exit. True, there will be no big, lighted sign with a flashing arrow dropping down from the heavens but there is a way out for you if you need it.

URBANA

June 29, 2011

Mary Ann Mast 260-774-3432 1-800-886-3018

THANK YOU FOR THE NEW FLAG: Since my article last week, we have had three flags donated to be flown above the Urbana headstone. This is fantastic and each will be used! On June 25, Tiffany and Ryan Haupert and their children, Libby, Meredith, and Lucas, lowered the present flag, learned how flags are to be disposed of, and then raised the new flag. Ann Wolfe, Urbana, and Mary Lou Wilcox, Bippus, also donated flags. Each time one of these flags is raised, those donating them will be notified to see if they would like to participate in raising a new flag. The flag above the headstone is lighted and never taken down except during very heavy windstorms. This puts a lot of “wear and tear” on the flag and it will be great to know that whenever a replacement is needed, a new one will be available. LADIES NITE OUT CLUB: Club President Helen Dawes served a salad luncheon to club members at her home for their June meeting. New club books for the 2011-12 year were distributed and different responsibilities for hostesses were explained. “The best way to destroy your enemy is to make him your friend” was read for the “thought of the month.” Before club members recited the Pledge of Allegiance, Helen Dawes acknowledged the article in the Plain Dealer that was submitted by club member Anne Driscoll that told the correct way to display the flag and reminded us that June 14 was Flag Day. Anne was an Army nurse in World War II. Assistant hostess Peg Heflin gave devotions by reading an article “A Garden Is a Joy” and several thoughts from a “Joy Journal” by Thomas Kincaid that encouraged us to find joy in the simple things in

life. Club members sang “Happy Birthday” to Jean Fleck and Mary Jean Wendel, and “Happy Anniversary” to Martha Jane Biehl, Erma Dawson, Peg Heflin, and Esther Terrel. A “Thinking of You” card was signed for Martha Jane Biehl. Before singing the song of the month “My Country ‘Tis of Thee,” Esther Terrel read an article entitled “Birthplace of National our Anthem” telling how Francis Scott Key first wrote the words as a poem on the back of an envelope and entitled it “The Defense of Fort McHenry.” On July 27, 1889, Secretary of the Navy Benjamin F. Tracy signed General Order #374, making “The Star-Spangled Banner” the official tune to be played at the raising of the flag. On March 3, 1931, a law was signed by President Herbert Hoover, making “The Star-Spangled Banner” the official national anthem of the United States. Roll call was answered by having members tell about the first car or the first car they dated in. Secretary Anna Lee Biehl and Treasurer Peg Heflin gave their reports. Mary Jean Wendel tallied the reading points. Club members sang “May the Good Lord Bless and Keep You” to close the meeting. Carolyn Everest was the Lucky Lady. T h e club’s July meeting will be ice cream and fellowship at The Works in Wabash.

There is a new sound in Wabash that well worth is hearing. God’s Country is a relative-

ly new band that got its start a year ago while playing at the 90th birthday for the mother of Ron Garlits. Since then, they have been playing an average of three times a month including most of the festivals and major fundraisers in Wabash County. They C o m m u n i have received rave reviews everywhere have they played. They specialize in a mix of classic and southern gospel, classic country and just a touch of oldies. The band consists of Mike Middleton on lead guitar and

vocals. Mike works at Visionary Web and is also a guitar instructor at the Noisemaker in Wabash. He has been playing guitar for almost 30 years. Lisa Dunnagan is the lead vocalist and also plays keyboard and guitar. Several of her songs will bring tears to your eyes. Lisa works at Total Works as a hairdresser. She has been singing and performing since childhood, but she won’t say how long that is. Ham Sadler plays bass and also does some solo vocals and harmonizing. Ham is a computer programmer at Ford Meter

Box. Next is Greg Walter on drums. Greg has played drums for over 30 years and has played in several local bands. Ron Garlits is a 69year-old business manager who wants to be a guitar player when he grows up. He has been playing for only four years. Ron retired from Beacon Credit Union last November and is currently working at Visionary Web. Ron and Ham are students of Mike Middleton. Their website is w w w. g o d s c o u n t r y gospel.com.

In addition, drawing winners received gift certificates for Market Street Grill, Azteca’s, Mi Pueblo and the Auto Laundry. Wabash County Relay for Life Coordinator Deanna Unger was present at the event and commented, “Everyone had a fun time at this amazing event. I was pleased to see so many age groups rep-

resented from the Wabash community.” A special thank you goes out to the Lip Sync major sponsor, Hank’s Construction, to Kenny Miller for providing the sound equipment, and to all the numerous friends and supporters who donated their time and hard work in making this entertainment program, a positive and fun community-wide event.

Wabash Church of the Nazarene set to host annual July 4 celebration For the seventh straight year, the Wabash Church of the Nazarene, 902 Manchester Ave., Wabash, will again invite the community to watch the Fourth of July fireworks at the church, beginning at 7 p.m. “We started this as an outreach to the community,” said Cheryl Wiley, one of the event’s organizers. “We wanted to create a place where families could come and enjoy the fireworks in a family-

friendly atmosphere.” The event normally attracts 400-500 people each year, with each visitor getting a ticket for free food and drink at the event. This year, the process will remain largely the same; visitors are to bring their own chairs or blankets, and they will receive tickets for the free food and drink upon parking at the event. Drivers are reminded to enter using the Grover Street entrance off of Manchester Avenue.

To beat the post-fireworks traffic, visitors will be directed to exit the event through the fairgrounds. “We want to spread the word that we provide this free of charge to the public,” Wiley said. “We’ll have games set up for the kids, including a moonwalk; Liston Creek Gospel Group will play; Sheltered Reality will be there; and we’ll have snocones available for a dollar – that’s the only expense anyone would have.”

Ivy Tech announces summer Kids’ Camps Ivy Tech Community College is offering several Kids’ Camps for area middle and high school students this summer and several of them still have spots available. The fun and educational camps will be held at the Kokomo, Logansport, Peru and Wabash campus sites. The camps that still have room available are: DIGITAL PHOTOGRAPHY CAMP (7th and 8th grades) During the Digital Photography Camp, participants will learn how to get the most out of digital camera features, compose scenes and use light to create exciting photographs. The camp in Kokomo will be held July 14 and 15, from 9 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. ART CAMP (7th and 8th grades) Participants will learn, through hands-on experience, the basics about drawing, painting, and sculpture as well as techniques dating from the Renaissance through modern art. Supplies and lunch are provided. Student projects will be on display, touring the Ivy Tech campuses within the region, through the end of the summer. The camp in Peru

will run on July 5 and 6, from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. LAW ENFORCEMENT CAMP (7th and 8th grades) This three-day camp, perfect for students interested in criminal justice, will cover the fundamentals of law enforcement training by using a K-9 officer, fingerprinting, accident investigation, criminal law and evidence collection. The course will consist of hands-on activities and lecture. The camp still has openings in Logansport, July 1921, 9 a.m. - 1 p.m. FORENSICS (7th and 8th grades) Participants will play the role of detective and work with fellow “investigators” to determine who killed Henry Ward in a hit-andrun car accident almost 100 years ago. Students will work

together to solve this crime by utilizing various cross-currictechniques ular including blood typing, forensic anthropology, fingerprint analysis, impression analysis for tires and shoes, hair analysis, blood spatter and DNA evidence. The Wabash camp will take place June 29, from 9 a.m. to 2:30 p.m. For a registration application, or more information about Ivy Tech Community College’s summer camps, visit www.ivytech.edu/ko komo and click on the Kids’ Camp banner on the top of the page. Those interested are also urged to contact Camp Coordinator Chad Lewis, at 1-800-4590561 ext. 528, or clewis97@ivytech.ed u, right away to ensure availability and reserve a spot.

Waas responds to C3 speaker Dear editor, The June 15 issue of

The Paper carried a news story about the

Kathleen Gaylourd $

Willow Salon & Spa !

speech given by Rev. C.L. Bryant at a recent C3 meeting. Some of the statements made by Bryant, according to the article, were false and give a distorted view of American history and the role of the founders. Bryant said that “35 theologians were signers of the Declaration of Independence.” That statement is false. Fifty-six men signed the Declaration and came from many parts of the society. They were merchants,

farmers, lawyers, soldiers, politicians, physicians, teachers and judges among other things. Only one could be considered to be a theologian, and that would be a stretch. Dr. John Witherspoon was an educator who held a Doctor of Divinity degree from St. Andrews University in Scotland. He was an educator who was recruited in 1768 to come from England to the colony of New Jersey to become the president of a college

that would become Princeton University. No other signer of the Declaration had a theological education or were theologians. Bryant’s statement about theologians was simply a fabrication. There are excellent biographical statements on each of the signers at www.ushistory.org/DECLARATION/signers/index. htm. Bryant also put words about American Christians in George Washington’s mouth, which have no basis

in fact. They may have been drawn from Mason Locke Weems, who wrote a fictional biography of George Washington in 1800. Weems attempted to shape the first president as an ardent Christian. The Weems biography is largely fabrication and filled with apocryphal stories, such as one about the cherry tree, and Washington’s personal life. American history is rich with true accounts of the bravery, insightful leadership and inspiring

acts of our founders and early political figures. It is sad when someone distorts that history in an attempt to prove some personal or ideological point. We do not have to manipulate the truth about our founders because their greatness is revealed in what they did and the lives they lived. It remains that “the truth will set you free.” Lies will not.
