Proudly Serving Wabash County Since 1977

Senator Dan Coats makes stop in Wabash on May 31 by Karlee Marshall On May 31, United States Senator Dan Coats visited Wabash to host a business roundtable at Charley Creek Inn. Coats, a republican senator from Indiana, discussed jobs, the economy, and welcomed questions from local business owners during his visit. On the federal budget and the progress being made in Congress, Coats said, “It is absolutely inconceivable that you could run any kind of business without a budget. Now we are going on four straight years without a budget and because of that we have not been able to measure or put caps on how much we can spend. As a republican caucus that if we control the senate after November, the very first thing we will do is propose a budget and we will enforce that.” A common issue

among the local business owners is the perceived increase in government regulation in business. Steve Edris, CEO of Thermafiber Inc., told Senator Coats, “As a small business owner and as a member of the North American Insulators Manufacturing Association, I’ve seen first hand what some of those regulators are trying to do, and for a small business it is more than disruptive.” Coats then spoke of a recent stop in central Indiana where other business owners shared that same sentiment. “Yesterday, in Noblesville, there was a community health care organization of Indianapolis. The president of that company said he has 12,000 employees working for his company. 6,000 of those employees are caregivers and the other 6,000 are in offices and cubicles doing the paperwork

for all of the regulations. That ratio is terrible. I understand that regulations make things hard for everyone.” Mark Huntington, Associate Dean of Academic Affairs at M a n c h e s t e r College, asked Senator Coats about the status of federal financial aid programs going forward. “We have kids graduating with great degrees from M a n c h e s t e r College, but not being able to get a job outside of college to pay for the student loans the students took out to achieve the degree, said Huntington.” “We need to do something to help these post graduates.” In light of possible federal student aid funding cuts, recognized Coats there is a problem. “It is clear to me, that whether it is education or paving roads or health care – about anything the

(photo by Karlee Marshall) federal government has helped fund in the past – there is not as much money available as we have had in the past,” Coats said. “In light of that, what we need to be doing is looking for alternative ways of supporting these valuable things.”

ALMOST OFFICIALLY COMPLETE: State and local officials toured the recent expansion to the Wabash Riverwalk near the Wabash Street Bridge on June 3. Wabash City Park Board Superintendent Todd Titus said a ribbon cutting ceremony is tentatively scheduled for sometime in the next two weeks to officially open the newest part of the Riverwalk.

Mindy Owens benefit concert and silent auction to be held June 16 by Karlee Marshall Melanoma. It is the most common form of skin cancer in people ages 20 to 29, and is the fastest growing cancer in the United States, according to WebMD. Mindy Owens, a senior at the University of Indianapolis majoring in music education, and minoring in theatre, was diagnosed with melanoma in 2009. At that time, she was just an 18 year-old senior at Oak Hill High School. During that year, Mindy noticed an unusual mole on her shoulder. She went to the doctor to have it checked out, and it was decided it needed to be removed. Mindy then underwent surgery. When the removal concluded, the doctor informed her the mole was cancerous.

“It was really scary” Mindy said, “ I didn’t think as a senior in high school that I would ever have to worry about cancer.” After the removal surgery, the doctors were hopeful they had removed all of the cancerous cells. A few months later, Mindy started having pain in the same shoulder area. What was found was devastating. The melanoma had spread to her lymph nodes. Numerous surgeries followed this news, and at one time, Mindy underwent a surgery to remove 15 to 16 lymph nodes from her armpit area. “After the lymph node surgery everyone was really thinking that they had gotten all of it,” Owens stated. Unfortunately they were wrong.

Mindy’s cancer has now spread throughout her body and has entered her bones. She is now at Stage 4. During Mindy’s journey, she has had extensive stays in the hospital, one of which resulted in her having to take a month off from school. “I had a treatment that was supposed to help shrink the cancer cells. That ended up taking me out of school for a month, and some of that meant me being in the hospital for a week straight,” Owens said. “During that week, my mom stayed with me all the time and at the hospital, there was really no-where for her to sleep except for in a recliner-like chair. She didn’t want to leave me or rent a hotel room, so I felt (continued on page 6)

“Begindergarten” to be offered for upcoming Wabash County kindergartners by Karlee Marshall With summertime weather upon Wabash County, schools are letting out for the summer. Some area administrators, however, are already busy thinking about next school year. Starting this summer, schools in Wabash County will begin to offer a program called “Begindergarten,” which is a free jumpstart program designed only for students who will be attending kindergarten next year and have not had the opportunity to attend a preschool program. The program will aim to provide students a solid foundation for

entering kindergarten in August. “I think this program is so important. Kindergarten has become very intense for the kids,” Larissa Shoemaker, Metro North Elementary School psychologist, said. “The expectations are much higher than what has been traditionally expected for kindergarten students.” Lavonne Sparling, Chief Academic Coordinator for MSD Wabash County, stated, “We are concerned students don’t have the basic skills needed to excel in kindergarten if they have not been a part of a preschool program. “Some students haven’t had that pre-

school opportunity and that leaves a gap between students who have had that structure and ones that haven’t had the opportunity,” Sparling said. “The closer we can close that gap, the better for all the students and kindergarten classes.” The program has been modeled after a similar program that started in Cass County. As it is a countywide program, MSD of Wabash County and Wabash City Schools students will be meeting at O.J. N e i g h b o r s Elementary, while Manchester students will be meeting at M a n c h e s t e r Elementary. “There are a lot of

changes being made this year,” O.J. Neighbors principal Danielle Miller said. “This year, the schools are switching to a common core curriculum, which is more rigorous than what Indiana standards were before.” The program is being offered from July 5 to Aug. 10 with two meeting times; the first being from 911:30 a.m. and the second from 12-2:30 p.m. Lunch will be provided for both sessions. A certified teacher and a paraprofessional will teach the sessions. T h e Begindergarten program will work with students on basic skills needed for

kindergarten. Letters, numbers, colors, and shapes will be covered. Also, school procedures will be covered, such as sitting in a circle, lining up, and what to do during lunchtime. “We are just trying to provide an opportunity in the community for kids who haven’t gotten a prekindergarten experience to be able to have one, free of charge,” Shoemaker said. If there is anyone who is interested in the program and did not attend kindergarten round up, they may contact O.J. N e i g h b o r s Elementary at 260-5632343. Wabash

Computers given to local not-for-profits through technology grant

Deborah VanMeter, executive director of The United Fund of Wabash County, recently announced a partnership with Net Literacy to distribute 19 computers to four deserving nonprofits in Wabash County. The stipulation for receipt of the computers was the requirement that the units be used in computer lab settings in order for the maximum amount of clients to gain access. Common activities will include homework research, job searches, and resume development for citizens in Wabash County who have no other access to a home computer or internet service. The computers were donated through the Net Literacy program and refurbished as a part of a jobtraining program. The Wabash County United Fund staff worked to find strong local programs that would put the computers to use immediately. It is estimated that more than 15,000 people will access these computers in the next year. The Youth Services Bureau will be using eight computers specifically for adults who accompany their children to the YSB. According to Donna Bogert, Executive Director of the YSB, “many companies as well as employment agencies require job applications to be filled out online.

Often a parent accompanying their children to the Youth Service Bureau has no other means to conduct job searches or apply for jobs.” The adult computer lab will expand the opportunity for children to work on homework or special school projects. The North Manchester Public Library will receive six computers and place half in the library’s adult com-

puter nook and the other half in the children’s computer lab. The additional units in these areas will expand the library’s ability to provide computer access to M a n c h e s t e r University students for research as well as adult and child patrons of the library. Roann Paw Paw Township Library will have learning software installed in two computers specifically for a children’s

computer lab. Joy Harber, Director, stated, “These computers will allow the Roann Library children’s computer lab to be reinstated.” The library used to have a designated children’s computer section and had to do away with the program over a year ago. The Lagro Library will receive three computers to serve adult and child library patrons, as well.

New state rule may save lives for trauma patients

Hoosiers who suffer traumatic injuries are now more likely to be treated at verified trauma centers immediately following an injury thanks to the adoption of the Triage and Transport Rule by the state’s Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Commission. The rule aims to better provide critical quality care during the first 60 minutes following a traumatic injury, known as the “golden hour” of care in emergency medicine. “In our efforts to create a statewide trauma system, this rule is foundational,”

said State Health Commissioner Gregory Larkin, MD. “It should mean more severely injured patients will be taken directly to trauma centers, and it should also mean more hospitals will become trauma centers.” The rule advises that once EMS personnel have assessed the condition of each patient at the scene of an incident, they should then determine if the patient falls into the most severe categories of trauma injury as defined by the Centers for Disease Control and

Prevention. If so, the patient must be taken to the nearest trauma center. The exceptions may include if transporting the patient would take more than 45 minutes, a patient’s right to decide or if the patient’s life will be endangered if care is delayed by going to the nearest trauma care center. In these scenarios, the patient should be taken to the nearest appropriate hospital, as determined by the EMS provider protocols. Traumatic injury is the number one killer of Hoosiers

under the age of 45. “Our number one priority is ensuring patients with traumatic injuries receive the lifesaving care they need, when they need it,” said Arthur L. Logsdon, director, Trauma and Injury Prevention at the Indiana State Department of Health. “Trauma centers utilize specific medical equipment and have skilled medical professionals available to handle the most severe, blunt force and puncture wounds. Trauma centers are proven to save the lives of those who have suffered the most devastating injuries. I am pleased the EMS Commission has voted positively on this rule.” In fact, nationally, there is a 25 to 30 percent greater chance of survival when severely injured patients are taken to a trauma center versus an emergency room. Trauma centers differ from hospital emergency rooms in some significant ways. Emergency departments are not trauma centers, as the typical emergency department treats broken legs, concussions, back sprains, lacerations, injuries resulting from motor vehicle rear-end crashes and trips on

Senate Enrolled Act 249, which tasked the EMS Commission with creating a rule to establish protocols for the transporting of trauma patients. “I applaud the work of the EMS Commission and the state agencies involved in passing this rule,” said Senator Wyss. “I wanted to make sure that Hoosiers were being taken to the proper destination after suffering a traumatic injury. This rule is one more step in the right direction toward patient safety and quality care.” The Indiana State Department of Health’s Division of Trauma and Injury Prevention will conduct a Trauma Listening Tour this summer. The goal is for Hoosiers to learn more about trauma, learn how state and local agencies currently respond to trauma, learn how an integrated trauma system could help the state and, most importantly, gather personal stories of how trauma has affected those in our state.

Trauma center “typical patients” include those with multiple fractures, brain injuries, paralysis, punctured lungs, handgun and stab wounds, car rollovers and ejections or falls of more than 20 feet. They are verified by the American College of Surgeons. Indiana has emergency medical services providers, trauma centers and a trauma registry to track these most severe of injuries, but is one of only nine states that do not have an integrated statewide trauma system. Indiana has eight verified trauma centers: · Deaconess Hospital, Evansville · St. Mary’s Medical Center, Evansville · Lutheran Hospital of Indiana, Fort Wayne · Parkview Hospital, Fort Wayne · IU Health Methodist Hospital, Indianapolis · Wishard Memorial Hospital, Indianapolis · IU Health Riley Hospital for Children, Indianapolis · Memorial Hospital of South Bend, South Bend In 2008, Senator Tom Wyss (R-Fort Wayne) authored

Realtors release Indiana Real Estate Market Report for April

Realtors recently released their monthly Indiana Real Estate Market Report, which showed that statewide, when comparing April 2012 to April 2011: The number of closed home sales increased 13 percent; The median sale price of those homes increased 2.7 percent to $116,000; The average sale price increased 3.5 percent to $137,533; The number of pending home sales increased 11.8 percent; The number of new listings increased 2.3 percent; and The percent of original list price received increased 0.1 percent to 90.7 percent. “April was one of the best months the statewide housing market has seen in years,” said Karl Berron, Chief Executive Officer of the Indiana Association of Realtors. “Members are confident the next few months of the traditional selling season will follow this positive trend, so long as Hoosiers are working.” “Going forward, we will be closely watching the activity related to the percent of original list price received at sale and inventory of homes for sale,” continued Berron. “Favorable supply-demand trends may finally be ticking toward sellers, through with still historically low interest rates, qualified buyers have a great market in which to make an investment.” Anyone looking to buy or invest should start with the sort able county tables of this report and then talk to a local REALTOR who can give the most insight into what’s happening in a neighborhood, city or school district.

her because she knew it would forever be treasured for what it was supposed to be,” Hadaway said. Butcher’s fight paid off when a representative from ACRES called to see if she would be interested in moving the historic mess hall, Star Lodge, to her property at Bass and Bucks. A crew disassembled the building, board by board, and transported it to

the property where Kroft Construction reconstructed it using nearly all of the original materials. The family plans to use the building as a multipurpose facility, available for use by the community. “It’s just going to be an open building to where if people want to use it, the opportunity is there and a part of the history of Camp Kokiwanee is still

Mindy Owens benefit... Two receive Indiana Sheriff’s

Continued from front page bad because it had to be uncomfortable for her”. U n f o r t u n a t e l y, those treatments were not successful and doctors are now trying to help control it with medication from home. On June 16 the Honeywell Center is hosting a benefit concert and silent auction to support Mindy and the continued research to find a cure

for cancer. This benefit is specifically for Mindy to fulfill her wish to take a trip as well as going toward cancer research to help find a cure. This event is from 12-8 p.m. and will feature bands such as: “Small Town,” “Surrender Dorothy,” “Jason DeVore,” “Elijiah Blue,” “Lane Family Gospel Group,” “JJAG,” and

many others. There will also be a choir from the University of Indianapolis called “Schola,” that Mindy Owens herself will perform in. Various local businesses have also donated items for bidding in a silent auction that will take place during this benefit also. “I would like to use some of the money to

help hospitals get better accommodations for families who are staying in the hospital with their loved ones while going through treatment,” Owens said. “I just want to show other cancer patients and their families, that they are not alone. “We are all kind of a family in a way. Dealing with cancer is hard, and I want other families to know that we can all be there for each other together”. Mindy and her family wish to thank all of the local businesses that donated things to be auctioned off, and would also like to think all of the bands that will be playing during the benefit. “There are not a lot of benefits out there for melanoma, so we are just trying to raise awareness for this so it can be recognized,” Gary Eltzroth, Mindy’s father, said.

Association scholarships

The Great Lakes Shrine Association Salmon Derby just completed their 38th annual derby on Lake Michigan. This derby raises funds for the Shriner’s Hospitals located in the Great Lakes Area, including the states of Indiana, Ohio, Michigan, Illinois, Wisconsin and lower Ontario. The derby is a function of the Mizpah Shrine of Fort Wayne and is supported by the Orak Shrine Temple of Michigan City. This year, the fisherman pulled in more

than 400 salmon and trout in two days. The derby was honored by the participation of Michigan City Mayor, Ron Meer. Joe Simon, derby coordinator, said that 88 Shriners participated this year. Our greatest attendance at the derby was 465 fishermen. The grand champion, Dave Hollenback of Wabash, caught the largest fish in the tournament, a lake trout weighing in at 19.8 pounds. Dave with the rest of his crew, fished on De Judge, captained by

Captain Carl Hartman. This was Captain Hartman’s first championship, but he came close on several other occasions. Since 1975, the fisherman delivered more than 16 tons of salmon and trout fillet to the Shrine Hospitals. Since then in 1985, the derby presented cash to the hospitals of over $400,000. This hospital program has awesome support from Wabash businessmen, merchants, fraternal organizations, and other friends. The

Michigan City boat captains have also been financial supporters of the event. The committee and Mizpah Shrine are greatly appreciative of the great Wabash support and want to give a great big Hoosier “thanks” from the fisherman and the Shrine. Also, Michigan City Charter Boat Association has been a fantastic supporter of the event. Shriners from five states participated in this year’s event. Other Wabash Shriners on the championship boat were Frank Nordman and Hap Dragoo, originator of the event, and Jack Dever, a Shriner from Fort Wayne, secretary of the committee. John Marshall was the first mate. Next year we hope to reach the half-million dollar gift to the Shriner’s Hospitals. We are especially grateful for the services of Captain Carl Hartman, a member

Hot, dry weather starts to take its toll on young corn plants Dry conditions and a record-setting heat wave have started to stress young, Midwestern corn plants, a Purdue Extension agronomist says. According to the latest update of the U.S. Drought Monitor, Indiana and Ohio both have started to experience abnormally dry weather. Both also have endured several days of temperatures in the 90s. The combination can be extremely stressful to young corn plants, which need enough soil moisture to develop their root systems. “The success or failure of the initial development of a

corn plant’s nodal, or permanent, root system greatly influences the success or failure of the young corn plant in transition from ‘life support,’ using kernel reserves, to relying on the developing nodal root system,” Bob Nielsen said. This transition starts at the V3 growth stage, or when corn has three visible leaf collars. According to Nielsen, corn younger than V3 can look healthy and uniform because it is still relying on kernel reserves. But if stresses stunt development of permanent roots, plants won’t be

able to make the transition to relying on a fully developed root system. Stressors that limit root development can include seedling disease, repeated defoliation events such as frost or sandblasting, shallow soil compaction, corn rootworm or corn nematode injury or excessively wet, dry, cold or hot surface soils. If young plants are exposed to any combination of these conditions, especially during root development, Nielsen said, the crop can go from healthy to unhealthy seemingly overnight. A large portion of Indiana’s corn crop is in the

midst of the transition. “The concern raised by farmers about the recent unusually warm temperatures and the forecast for more of the same is a valid one given the current stage of development of much of the state’s corn crop,” Nielsen said. “Approximately 76 percent of the crop is currently at growth stage V5 (leaf development) or younger. Maybe one-third or more is at V3 or younger. “Concerns over hot and dry weather right now are similarly valid, given that many fields have not yet successfully devel-

oped their initial set of nodal roots.” Excessively hot, dry surface soils during transition can stop elongation of roots, Nielsen said. And prolonged hot, dry soils can kill young corn plants. But with no control over Mother Nature, Nielsen said the bottom line is that farmers with vulnerable corn need to “pray for rain or turn on the irrigation.” More of Nielsen’s comments about the corn crop and the weather can be found on the Chat ‘n Chew Café at www.agry.purdue.edu/ext/corn/caf e/.

Our Y, in cooperation with the Wabash City Schools Summer Food Service Program and Midwest Eye Consultants will also be sponsoring a weekend Backpack Program every Friday from June 8th thru July 27th. The goal is to provide children with some nutritious food over the weekend. This program will be of no cost to local children. Each child will need to pick up a backpack on Fridays between 11–12:30 p.m. or 4–6 p.m. at the YMCA.

The backpacks need to be returned by Tuesday of the following week so they can be refilled so each child may receive another prepared backpack on Friday. The only stipulation is each child signs his/her name as they take a backpack. The YMCA will supply the food, Midwest Eye Consultants are providing the backpacks, while the Wabash City Schools will prepare the backpacks for distribution. This is a very powerful aspect to the youth of this community. All kids need fuel for their summer days and healthy eating habits help reduce childhood obesity.

North Miami soils take home reserve national title

NORTH MIAMI’S SOILS JUDGING TEAM including (from left) Michael Fouts, Kyleigh See, Evan Beech, Alyssa Kuhn, Jared Richardson, Jenn Miller, Caleb McPherson finished as the National Reserve Champions in Oklahoma at the National Land and Range Judging finals. (photo provided)

The North Miami soils team traveled to Oklahoma City for the annual National land and range-judging contest. The team spent three days learning about the local soils before competing in the national event. The contest was held on the Fort Reno property. This property was a US army post from the days of the Indian wars until the 1950’s. At that time the army no longer felt a need for the property, and deeded it to the US Department of Agriculture for use as a pasture and range research facility. The contest tests

the student’s ability to identify key physical features of the soil and make management decision on the proper use of the soils for either home site development or agriculture use. There were approximately 600 students from the State of Hawaii to the Atlantic coast participating in this, the sixty second, annual event. The Oklahoma Association of Conservation Districts sponsors the contest. North Miami students received several individual honors in addition to being name National Reserve Champions. Tying for third high

individual in the agriculture site evaluation was Evan Beech while teammate Jen Miller placed seventh. In home site evaluation, Michael Fouts turned in the second place effort while Beech, placed third. Glen and Chris Jones coach the teams.

Recipients of Manchester College’s Master of Athletic Training diplomas this spring are the first Indiana graduates of a program fully accredited by the Commission on Accreditation of Athletic Training Education. “This is a significant step for us, because only graduates from accredited programs may take the exam to become Certified Athletic Trainers,” says Mark Huntington, Program Director and Associate Dean of Academic Affairs. In receiving the initial CAATE accreditation, Manchester now offers the only certified entry level Master of Athletic Training program in Indiana. Only 27 accredited entry-level master’s programs exist in the nation, according to the Commission. Manchester’s integration of classroom and clinical experiences and the collegiality of the faculty athletic trainers provide a seamless transition from classroom to clinical experience, said the CAATE evaluators, who also had praise for the “spacious and wellequipped” athletic training facility on the North Manchester campus. Manchester’s twoyear Master of Athletic Training program provides handson, clinical preparation for practice in high schools, colleges, professional sports, hospitals, clinics and industry, says Huntington.

Anglers help DNR balance bass numbers at two Noble County lakes A DNR effort to improve bass fishing at two Noble County lakes continues to show progress. A temporary rule put in place last summer reduced the number of small, overabundant largemouth bass at Big and Crane lakes, according to state fisheries biologists. The rule set aside a 14-inch minimum size limit and temporarily allowed anglers to take home bass that were 10 to 14 inches long. Earlier surveys revealed both lakes were dominated by small, slow-growing bass, with few larger than 14 inches.

Sampling this spring indicated anglers took out about one-third of the small bass at Big Lake and two-thirds of the small bass at Crane Lake. At Big Lake, estimated numbers of 10to 14-inch bass dropped from 4,426 last year to 2,878 this year. Numbers at Crane Lake declined from 1,162 to 374. By reducing the number of small bass, biologists say those that remain should grow faster and larger. To protect the remaining bass, the 14-inch minimum size limit is now back in effect at both lakes.

“Ideally we wanted anglers to take home half of the number of small bass in each lake, but we’re happy with the outcome,” said Jed Pearson, DNR biologist. “We’ll now see if too many bass were taken from Crane Lake and not enough were taken from Big Lake.” The DNR will continue to monitor the number of bass in both lakes to study the long-term effects of the temporary rule. If successful, similar regulations may be imposed at other lakes with too many small bass. The key, Pearson said, is to get numbers of bass in line

with the productivity of a lake and its food supply. Since 1998, when the 14-inch size limit was imposed at all northern Indiana lakes, some lakes have developed dense populations of small bass. The majority of lakes, however, now have both higher overall numbers of bass and larger bass. Biologists aren’t sure why some lakes produce too many bass. “If we can restore balance to the bass populations in Big and Crane lakes, we hope that maybe they will stay that way,” Pearson said.

LAFONTAINE AND SOMERSET

June 6, 2012

Ethel Eib 765-981-4054 etheleib @yahoo.com

A BIG THANK YOU TO Gary Wood, Larry Kendall and Larry Wright on all their work in making the I.O.O.F. Cemetery look so nice. E V E RY O N E PLEASE plan on attending the L a F o n t a i n e “Ashland Days” Festival June 15 and 16. There will be vendors, entertainment, contests, motorcycle ride, tractor show, parade, town wide rummage sales, and games for children quilt and needlework show. There are schedules of events at the post office and town hall. Check out LaFontaine Festival on Face Book. There are pictures from last year, plus news about events this year. MEMORIAL DAY 2012 The Memorial Day celebration was again held at the I.O.O.F. Cemetery in LaFontaine. A parade from downtown to the cemetery started at 11 a.m., led by the LaFontaine Fire Department trucks festooned with U.S. flags. Thirty some flag waving participants made the walk. At the cemetery Daughters of the A m e r i c a n Revolution passed out programs. American flags were given to all attending and 28 veterans signed the roll. At 11:30 a.m. the Mississinewa Battlefield Society U.S. 2nd Artillery began the service with a cannon salute. The I.O.O.F. Color Guard did posting of the colors. The speaker, David Kuester told how complicated the answer to a simple question like, “Why do you do this every memorial Day?” can become. The real easy answer is because someone

MORRIS SMEDLEY, class of 1962, was recognized as the Outstanding Lafontaine High School Alumnus at the May 5 banquet. (photo provided) needs to, and if not me will you? He then went on to say how the “Price of Freedom can be seen in the LaFontaine Cemetery and all the other township cemeteries by the waving flags that mark the graves of the veterans buried there, those who fought to make and keep America free from Bunker Hill to Kabul. Following the address the roll of those deceased since the last Memorial Day was called. Dick Kumler being one of the deceased was recognized for his service as one of the I.O.O.F. Color Guard for the past 16 years. Regent Sue Suever of the General Francis Marion Chapter DAR laid a wreath in memory of those who have died. The Gun Salute was given and Marilyn Speicher played Taps. The I.O.O.F. Color Guard retired the colors and the cannon gave a final salute. Over 150 people were in attendance for the 17th annual Memorial Day Service. Mark your calendar for next years’ service and plan to bring your children and grandchildren. H A P P Y B E L A T E D BIRTHDAY Dave Bates, Rudy Ketchem and Cheryl Roser June 4, Ruthanna Gilpin June 5 H A P P Y BIRTHDAY Beth Weaver June 10, Bonnie Walters, Nichole Culver, and

Lion Larry had Lion Gary Nose open the meeting with prayer followed by Lion Tom Willcox leading the Pledge of Allegiance. There was no secretary report, treasure report was told and approved. Discuss if the club could take the kettle corn to the Warren Tractor Show. After much discussion, it was decided that there were not enough members available to do this. A motion was made by Lion Ethel Eib to not go and second by Lion Tom Polk, motion passed. Discuss what to have in the LaFontaine festival parade. No decision was made at that time. Lion Duane Davis asked if the club again this buy the plaques for the tractor show at Lion LaFontaine. Tom Willcox made a motion to buy them Lion Brad Rody seconds the motion. Motion passed. Lion Ethel brought up about if the club wanted to give a donation to the YWMC for their program. After

Meeting was adjoined at 8:35 p.m. After the meeting it was decided to see if Lion Gary would put his car in the parade

and Lion president Larry ride with him. Lion Gary has agreed and they will represent the LaFontaine Lions Club in the parade. WORDS OF WISDOM: A truly happy person is one who can enjoy the scenery on a detour. Life isn’t about what happens to us. It’s about how we perceive what happens to us.

Living Well in Wabash County announces activity dates for June Remember when your grade school teacher kept you on the edge of your seat with a daily reading from a book? The class would always release a collective groan when the teacher knowingly stopped at a place that kept students begging to hear more. Beginning in June, sixth grader Lucy Grey will bring back the oratory reading skills of yester-year with a good old-fashioned book read. On Tuesdays and Thursdays at 2:30 p.m., Lucy will read aloud beginning with the book “How to Steal a Dog” by Barbara O’Connor. With unmistakable sympathy, Barbara O’Connor tells the story of a young girl struggling to see what’s right when everything else seems wrong. Please bring children, grandchildren, or just yourself and join us for a half hour of reading

Friday, June 8

Here, a father teaches his son life lessons using the tales of his ancestors. “Abuelas” is the story of a woman who eagerly awaits the birth of a grandchild, only to be forced by circumstances to wait for years to see the child. “The Candy Shop” is a thirty-minute fairy tale/parable about child sex trafficking in Atlanta. The nature of this film makes it of little interest to children in the audience. Doug Jones, who lived in Wabash County, is featured in this film. “A Finger, Two Dots, Then Me” is a spoken-word piece based on a poem by Derrick Brown. “Thief ” tells the story of Mehdi, an Iraqi boy who, in 1959, befriends the young Saddam Hussein. More than 40 years later, the two come face-to-face a second time, and Mehdi must balance his desire for revenge against his need to make peace with the past.

The film series concludes at 7:30 p.m. on June 28, following the appearance of Tuxedo Junction at the Honeywell Center Plaza. “Red Dog,” a PG-rated film, which was produced in Australia, is based on a novel which was inspired by a real-life incident of how a dog became a local legend in a remote coastal town. While Red Dog lies dying in the back room of a pub, residents gather to relate stories of this remarkable animal. Nelson Woss, the filmmaker, will answer questions via Skype from Australia. The film series is presented through a collaboration involving Heartland Truly Moving Pictures, the Eagles Theater, the H o n e y w e l l Foundation, and the Charley Creek Arts Fest. Tickets are available online at www.charleycreekartsfest.org or at the door.

“The Welcome to My Garden” 2012 Garden Tour releases dates, times and ticket information The semi-annual North Manchester Garden Walk has become an inspiration for gardeners, nature lovers and all who appreciate the serenity of the outdoors. It has earned a reputation as being both soothing and invigorating. It is a day filled with beautiful blooms, exotic plants, creative design, garden art, butterflies, birds and fellowship. The “Welcome to My Garden Tour” is intended to cater to those who wish to enjoy a leisurely stroll through the unique and charming gardens or to those who wish to garner inspiration and ideas for their own gardening projects. After taking part in the exclusive plant sale at the library, the garden tour begins next door at the Thomas Marshall House, birthplace to the 28th Vice President of the United States. The periodstyle gardens surrounding the home with old-fashioned plants as well as the interior of the Thomas Marshall House will on display during the gar-

den tour for visitors to enjoy. At the home of Kyle and Stacey Trick located on Main Street is a unique English style garden. Formal hedges of boxwoods softened with billowing blooms of endless summer hydrangea stand out against this stately gray Victorian style home. All lucky Garden Tour ticket holders will not only be invited to view the exceptional gardens of the Trick’s home, but also to tour the inside of this meticulously restored Victorian. The Burton and Reichenbach gardens can be found tucked into a quiet neighborhood in the Seventh block of Bond Street. These lovely cottage style gardens are located adjacent to one another, and connected by a shared herb garden. Travel across town to the River Dells addition to south River Cove Lane and discover a beautiful garden filled hardy Midwest perennials, flowering shrubs and shade loving plants. At the final stop on

the tour, visitors will find a lovely, private country-styled estate situated in the middle of North Manchester. This historic brick home is surrounded by magnificent groves of magnolia trees, underplanted with shade gardens. Filled with unique and unusual plants, the gardens are accented by special garden art that hold fond memories for this delightful gardener.

Your health care: understanding Medicare and Medicaid by Lauren Montrastelle Navigating the health care system can be challenging for anyone, but for the more than 9 million people who are eligible for both Medicare and Medicaid, it can be especially difficult. Medicare and Medicaid have similar names, but are very different programs. People who are eligible for both, known as “dual eligibles,” must understand the differences in eligibility requirements and coverage details in order to access the health care services that are available to them. This is especially important for the 60 percent of dual eligibles who suffer from multiple chronic conditions, such as diabetes and heart disease. Getting the health care coverage they need to appropriately manage their conditions is critical to their wellbeing. The 149,000 dual eligibles in Indiana and their caregivers should take the following steps to help simplify their health care experience and get the best care available: 1. Understand the differences in coverage and eligibility between Medicare and Medicaid. Medicare is a program managed by the federal government that provides health care benefits to people ages 65 and older and disabled individuals. Medicare covers medical care services such as physician visits, hospital stays and prescription drug costs. Medicaid is a health care benefits program managed by the Indiana state government. Unlike Medicare, each state sets its own guidelines regarding Medicaid eligibility and services. For those enrolled, Medicaid pays for most long-term care as well as Medicare deductibles, co-pay-

ments and other health care costs that beneficiaries would otherwise pay for out of pocket. 2. Explore healthcare options in Indiana that provide adequate support for dual eligibles. For dual eligibles, the coordination of benefits between Medicare and Medicaid can be confusing Beneficiaries typically have separate membership cards and different points of contact for their benefits questions. One option to address this challenge that has risen to the forefront of Indiana efforts in recent years is what’s known as a Medicare Advantage Special Needs Plan. Offered by private companies, these plans can be chosen in place of traditional Medicare. Special Needs Plans support dual-

eligible individuals by serving as a single entity that coordinates all aspects of care. These plans focus on the unique needs of dual eligibles, offering customized care and support to manage their complex health care needs. Specialized services available with Special Needs Plans may include in-home visits, social support services and help when transitioning home from the hospital. 3. Learn more by taking advantage of the free resources in your community. As state and federal officials work to improve the system that supports dual eligibles, residents should be aware of new options available to suit their unique needs as well as resources they can use to learn more.

For more information on Medicare and the Indiana Medicaid program, residents may contact 1-800MEDICARE (TTY users should call 1877-486-2048, 24 hours a day, seven days a week) or 1-800-4574584. The State Health I n s u r a n c e Assistance Program, sometimes called SHIP, can also be a good place to turn for free counseling and support. To contact the SHIP office in Indiana call 1-800452-4800. L a u r e n Montrastelle is the C o m m u n i t y Relations Manager for Care Improvement Plus in Indiana. Care Improvement Plus provides specialized Medicare Advantage coverage for underserved and chronically ill beneficiaries throughout Indiana.

NORSE BLAST WAPAHANI, WIN BY 10 IN REGIONAL FINALS Northfield 12 Wapahani 2

by J.D. Sparks

Northfield scored seven firstinning runs on its way to a 12-2, five-inning victory over Wapahani Saturday, taking all of the drama out of its first regional title since 2006. Northfield junior Andy Roser starred, going 3-for-4 with three RBIs. He belted a long single in the bottom of the fifth to dash any hopes of a Wapahani comeback, scoring the final two runs of the game and ensuring the 10run rule win. “I don’t know, but that felt awesome,” Andy Roser said about his game-ending hit. “It just feels good, especially after being shut out in our regional game last year. I started the postseason kind of slow, but I hope I can continue hitting like this next week.”

Track state A quartet of Wabash County track athletes earned a trip to the state finals Friday and Saturday at Indiana University in Bloomington. Manchester senior Kegan McNeeley starred Saturday, June 2, taking seventh place in the 100meter dash in 10.89 seconds. Caleb Augustus came in 26th in the 3200-meter run in nine minutes and 36.31 seconds. It was the fastest 3200-meter race in IHSAA history and featured a new state record, breaking the former record that stood for 35 years. On June 1, a pair of Wabash girls competed. Kyleigh Hampton tied for 20th place with a leap of 5-2 in the high jump. Kelsie Thomas came in 16th in the 400-meter dash in one minute and 0.26 seconds.

Andy Roser also singled in the first run of the game after his brother, Adam Roser, led off the first inning with a triple. Tanner Chamberlain walked, then Andy Roser clubbed a double down the left-field line. Ryan Keaffaber then blasted a triple to right field to put the Norse up 3-0. Joseph Ross’s RBI groundout, a Hunter Wells run-scoring double, and a two-RBI single from Adam Roser later and the Norse were up 7-0. “We hit the ball very well off Reynolds and building the big league took a lot of pressure off us early,” Northfield’s Head Baseball Coach Tony Uggen said. “We did a lot of things right in this one, hit, field, run bases and pitch. I couldn’t be prouder of this group.” Wapahani answered with runs in the second and fourth innings, but couldn’t come within six runs back from Northfield. The Norse continued to put runs on the board,

scoring one each in the second and third innings. In the fifth, four consecutive walks issued to Collin Dawes, Jared Kirtlan and Adam Roser each walked to load the bases. Tanner Chamberlain recorded an RBI after drawing his second walk of the game, increasing the Norse lead to 10-2. Those four walks set the stage Andy Roser’s game-ending hit. Chamberlain, a senior, knew the game wouldn’t last much longer after his walk. “That was the climax of the season so far,” he said to The Paper. “It’s unreal. I knew once I walked the game was over. I turned to (Assistant Coach Troy) Miller and told him the game was over. I knew Andy was going to end the game.” Meanwhile, Keaffaber pinned down Wapahani, holding his opponents to three hits to earn his 14th win of the season. He tossed five innings and gave up two earned runs, walked three and struck out five. Adam Roser went 2-for-2 with

NORSE JUNIOR JOSEPH ROSS takes a swing during his team’s 12-2 regional-title winning game against Wapanani on June 2 at Chris Rood Field in Wabash. Ross went 1-for-3 with an RBI. (photo by J.D. Sparks) two walks, two RBIs and two runs scored. Andy Roser was 3for-4 with three RBIs and scored a run. The Norse (26-5-1) return to action Saturday at Coveleski Stadium at South Bend Clay for its

semistate bout with Hebron (208). The game will follow the 1A semistate matchup between Fort Wayne Blackhawk (22-6-1) and Lafayette Central Catholic, which begins at 1 p.m.

Late-inning heroics send Norse to regional finals Northfield 5 Madison-Grant 4 by J.D. Sparks A sky-scraping single from Joseph Ross gave Northfield its second walk-off win of this IHSAA state series. Ross’ bases-loaded, bottom-ofthe-seventh base hit broke a 4-4 tie and gave the Norse a 5-4 win over Madison-Grant in the regional semifinal game at Chris Rood Field Saturday. “That was the hardest single I’ve ever hit,” Ross said Saturday, laughing. “It felt really good. It was exciting. If I would have hit that ball maybe 10 more feet, I think that would have made things more exciting for the fans.” Chamberlain scored on the play after he walked to begin the seventh inning. M-G starting pitcher Derek Anderson fell behind in the count to Chamberlain 3-1. During Chamberlain’s at bat, a blister on Anderson’s pitching hand visibly bothered him. He was taken out for relief-pitcher Ryan Inglis. Inglis then issued a walk to Andy Roser before being taken out of the game thanks to a blister on

Schwinns’ two-run homer in the first inning off of Andy Roser gave M-G its only lead of the game. The Norse responded with four runs in the bottom of the frame. Andy Roser singled home his brother, Adam Roser, to make the score 2-1. Ryan Keaffaber sacrificed the runners over and Ross reached on a two-base error that allowed a pair of runners to score, giving the Norse a 3-2 lead. Collin Dawes singled home the fourth run. “We got out to an early lead, but then we went into a lull,” Uggen said. “We made some great plays on defense, I thought, and Andy pitched well.” Roser started the game and pitched four and two-thirds innings. He gave up four earned runs on six hits and struck out five. Keaffaber earned his 13th win of the season and 32nd of his career to break Northfield’s careerwin record.
