MSD school board approves controversial book list by Eric Stearley eric@thepaperofwabash.com On the evening of Tuesday, May 27, the Metropolitan School District of Wabash County’s school board met in the district’s administrative office to address a variety of subjects. Primary among these was the approval of a list of reading materials for use in the district’s secondary English classes. The list sparked controversy in April when parents discovered that several of the books included objectionable content. After parents expressed concerns at the April 29 meeting, four selections were removed from the list. At the May 13 meeting, The Glass Castle by Jeanette Walls became the focus of the debate. The vote was ultimately tabled, as board member John Gouveia was absent due to a professional obligation. While the previous board meeting was filled with concerned (and outraged) parents, the most recent meeting saw an abundance of teachers present to show support for the English department. Two parents commented on the book list, most notably, Teresa Sears, who offered suggestions for an alternative English class, among other things. “I talked to Indiana State Education, I talked to an attorney, and we have a right to have the Bible, not as a biblical class, but as a literature class,” said Sears. “If we put these things in front of our kids… OK, we’re not going to ban books. That’s fine. I respect the teachers who want to teach it, but their morals are not my morals. It’s legal to have a class on the Bible as a literature study, and I’m just asking for that as an alternative. And I will back off, and they can teach whatever they want.” Sears added that when her girls are in a class with a teacher that they like, but content is being taught that is against their morals, it takes the fun out of school. Northfield English Department Head Erin Sapusek addressed the request. “Last year, we offered an elective class of the Bible as literature, and it was not able to go,” said Sapusek. “We only had four students that signed up, and with our small staff and tight scheduling, we are not able to offer a class for just four students.” Before the board members discussed the matter, a parent asked about the length of time that would be allowed for parents to review the books being taught in their students’ specific classes. “The teachers have said to me that actually, once we know what the list is, (continued on page 4)

Ivan Stoltzfus travels through Wabash on cross-country fundraising tractor journey by Eric Stearley eric@thepaperofwabash.com On May 22, one Pennsylvanian man’s dream brought him right through the heart of Wabash County in a most unusual fashion. Those who traveled U.S. 24 around lunchtime may have seen a strange looking John Deere tractor driving down the highway pulling a camper emblazoned with American flags and text reading “Across America for Wounded Heroes.” In the drivers seat was Ivan Stoltzfus. The retired farmer and auctioneer is on an ambitious journey across the United States to raise money for the Wounded Warriors Project. Ivan’s dream was largely inspired by his late father. In the early 1940s, Ivan’s father worked his way across the country from farm to farm for a year. He would tell his son about his journey as a young man, crossing a wooden swinging bridge across the Mississippi River and driving dirt roads on his journey west. Ivan’s childhood is also filled with memories of his father farming his own land with a two-cylinder tractor. “I used to just love the sound of twocylinder tractors, and that’s where my dream began,” said Ivan. “I thought, ‘Someday I want to go across America for some benefit in a two-cylinder tractor.” Before Ivan’s father passed away he gave him a bit of advice that stuck with

I wish I would have done more,’” Ivan recalled. Having never served in the military, Ivan also had a deep desire to give back to those who fought for his freedom.

“I guess the older I get, I realize how I took my freedom for granted,” said Ivan. “I just feel our veterans today, they’re struggling to try to fit back into society again, and in some small way, if I can help them and bring awareness, it would mean so much to me. I’m just trying to reach out to America to try to help me. I (continued on page 16)

Metro North Elementary students raise $2,035 in “Smiles for Myles” campaign

MYLES BARTLEY WAS ALL SMILES during a May 27 convocation at Metro North Elementary, which concluded the school’s three-week “Smiles for Myles” fundraiser. Students raided their piggy banks to help the two-year-old’s family with medical expenses. In total, the students raised more than $2,000. (photo by Eric Stearley)

by Eric Stearley eric@thepaperofwabash.com When Myles Bartley came into the world, he was dealt a tough hand. Just two weeks after birth, Myles was diagnosed with End-Stage Renal Disease. Now two-and-a-half-years-old, Myles is hooked up to a dialysis machine every night for ten hours as he waits for a new kidney. Myles is the son of Shawn Bartley and Sarah Rife. Sarah’s mother, Bridget Harner has been a custodian at Metro North Elementary for 18 years. After keeping up with Myles’ progress over the past two years, the school’s staff decided to get the kids involved to help the little guy. They told the students about Myles’ condition and started a “Smiles for Myles” fundraiser. For every $10 donated by students, a smiley face was put up on the bulletin board near the school’s entrance. “They’ve been very excited about it, and when we kicked it off, Myles and his (continued on page 5)

Annual Trash Bash program has huge success

More than 1,450 miles were cleaned during April

Thanks to the effort of thousands of volunteers, Department of Correction offenders and Department of Transportation employees, motorists traveling through the Hoosier state will see cleaner roadsides this summer. Since 1997, the Indiana Department of Transportation (INDOT) has coordinated with Adopt-AHighway volunteers and the Indiana Department of Correction (IDOC) to

“spring clean” Indiana highways during Trash Bash. Each year, hundreds of tons of trash are collected - sprucing up Hoosier roadways just in time for nice weather. “This annual cleanup effort gives the offenders an opportunity to make a positive impact on the community and give back in a big way. Once again our work crews stepped up to the challenge and surpassed our hopes for this year’s campaign. We are thankful to INDOT for continuing to partner with us for this important public

service,” stated IDOC Commissioner Bruce Lemmon. Statewide this year more than 9,300 cubic yards of debris and 16,500 bags of trash were collected from alongside 1,480 miles of Indiana’s roadways. Adopt-AHighway groups played a significant role in this year’s success by volunteering a record number 10,200 hours! “It was great to see participation from so many Adopt-AHighway groups in this year’s Trash Bash program,” said INDOT Commissioner Karl Browning.

“Many groups have participated annually but we are especially grateful for the new A d o p t - A - H i g h w ay groups who want to help make a difference in our great state.” INDOT also offers Sponsor-A-Highway opportunities on Indianapolis area interstate highways.

Sponsors hire an approved vendor to provide litter control in the name of the sponsors. Sponsors benefit by having their name or logo advertised on an acknowledgement sign. For more information on the INDOT Sponsor-A-Highway program, go to http://www.in.gov/in

MSD school board approves controversial book list...continued from front page they can get the list out this summer,” said Superintendent Sandra Weaver. “Certain books will be for certain classes,” English teacher Denise Stouffer clarified. “You’ll find that out if you go online when we sit down as a department and say, ‘this is what’s being taught for this particular class.’ But we just got the kids out the door.” The district hopes to have the lists posted early in June. With public comments concluded, the board addressed the issue. All eyes were on John Gouveia, as the public had yet to hear his thoughts on the book list. After thanking the public for their opinions and involvement in the issue, he addressed recent comments regarding the merit of the district’s teachers. “I’m…cognizant of the fact that we only set policy,” Gouveia said about the board. “We’re not educators. I’m not an educator. I’m not a lawyer. I’m not a CPA. I tell all my

clients I’m a dumb banker. “What has saddened me though, is the fact that this board takes a lot of pride in allowing a lot of opportunity for public comment. In the last several weeks, through social media, print media, there has been a lot of denigration of our professional staff, and that is sad, because we have some very fine administrators and educators and people that absolutely love our children. First and foremost, they think about those kids every day - when they first wake up, when they go home, and when they wake up again. They have kids in our system. I have kids in our system. Likewise, you represented yourselves because you have children or grandchildren in our system. “Our board has established a civility toward coaches. They have equally said the same for our teachers that they are human beings and they deserve our respect. We have charged them

with the education of our children, and we have relied upon them to be the wisdom and choice in the classroom. And I know that has been called into question without direct comment or question to those teachers. I would hope that all these parents would engage our teachers first, because they are wonderful people, and being such, they have our children’s best interest at heart.” Gouveia then spoke specifically to the book list. “The book list, this process, I believe in my heart has worked,” Gouveia continued. “I look at the age in this room, a few younger, some older, some right around my bracket. The pedagogy may be different than what you and I experienced in school. It does not change the fact that it is the content taken out of context that sometimes we as adults get hung up on, and we don’t give our children enough credit, nor the educators the credit they deserve

to moderate the discussion in that classroom.” Gouveia then specifically addressed the Bible, as referenced by Sears earlier in the meeting. “My best friend in life is a minister and a church pastor,” Gouveia said. “He told me that nobody should read the Holy Bible by themselves without having a learned individual help them through the process of understanding. Equally, we put that teacher in the classroom to do the same thing in our processes. With that, I am moving to the acceptance of the entirety of the slate of literature.” Immediately following Gouveia’s remarks, the board voted unanimously to approve the book list for use over the next six years. Following the vote, the board approved a variety of unrelated agenda items, including three grants and a donation, totaling more than $20,000. The board approved the employment of sum-

mer school staff, Sally Winters and Angela Knoche as speech pathologists for the Wabash-Miami Area Program, Tanner McCarty as a summer custodian, Devin Bechtold as a summer technician, and Stephanie Salmon as a second grade teacher at Metro North Elementary. The board also approved the retirement of bus driver Allen Wrisk and the resignation of Erin Sapusek, a Northfield High School English teacher. She has accepted a position teaching English at Wabash High School. Finally, the district announced the hiring of Patrick Hopkins as the new varsity basketball coach at Northfield (see page 24). They also announced the hiring of a new Chief Academic Officer, Melissa Brisco, to replace Lavonne Sparling, who is retiring. For more on Brisco, look for an article in next week’s edition of The Paper.

Metro North Elementary students raise $2,035 in “Smiles for Myles” campaign...continued from front page family came, and that was just neat to see him,” said Metro North Principal Janette Moore. The staff set a goal of $500, expecting to hit it over the course of the last three weeks of school. That goal was surpassed on the first day. When Myles, his mother, and his sister, Veda, came back to the school on May 27, they were presented with a check for $2,035.49. “They’re awesome little kids who actually, you know, did it,” said Sarah. “I think it’s crazy that they raised that much money just bringing in all of their change.” “It sure was something to see the kids bringing their money in every morning,” said Bridget. In addition, Northfield eighth grader Braelyn Deeter held a bake sale to benefit the little guy, raising $630.28. The Tuesday convocation gave Deeter a chance to meet Myles as well. So far, Myles has had no less than six surgeries. In addition to his dialysis catheter, he has a feeding tube, which supplements his diet with additional calories. Currently, the family is waiting to see if Sarah is eligible to donate a kidney to her son. They found a perfect match who was willing to donate but was recently ruled out due to health concerns. Though this was a huge let down for the family, they are staying positive. Regardless of the donor, they’re hoping for a transplant this summer. Until then, Myles will continue peritoneal dialysis at home every night. Myles has grown fond of his dialysis machine, but Sarah said that doesn’t mean it isn’t painful. “I’m in support groups, and a lot of people say that it’s very painful, but I don’t think he knows any different,” said Sarah. “The doctors say that he won’t realize how sick he was until he gets the kidney, and he’s going to feel like a different person.” Myles is about half the size of other children his age. Because he has to keep his medical devices ster-

ile, he can’t swim or take a bath, but to the outside world, he seems like a normal toddler. “He’s pretty much happy all the time,” said Sarah. “I don’t think he knows he’s sick. He knows that his sister and us, we don’t get hooked up to machines. He knows that he has his machine and he takes a lot of medicines and he goes to the doctor a lot, but I’m not sure how much he understands at this point.” Though he can’t communicate all of his feelings, he makes some things very clear. He loves superheroes, especially Spiderman, and cats. “He understands that he wants to keep his tube,” said Bridget. “He’s had that tube since he was two weeks old, so it’s a part of his body as far as he’s concerned. When Sarah has talked to him about getting a new kidney and that he won’t have his tube anymore, he wants to keep his tube.” “Ya, and he wants to keep getting hooked up to his machine,” Sarah added. Regardless of how much he likes his machine and tube, Myles desperately needs a new kidney, and if they want it to last, it has to be from a live donor. If they can find him a perfect match, the kidney could last between 30 and 60 years. A kidney from a normal match, like Sarah, could last him 15-20 years. The money raised by the elementary students will help the family with the

tremendous financial burden resulting from Myles’ condition. In addition to medical bills, Myles treatment means many trips to the doctor. When he gets a transplant, the family will spend months in Indianapolis while he recovers, followed by multiple trips per week for check-ups. The elementary students aren’t the only ones donating to the cause. Myles has a G ive Fo r w a rd . c o m page that can be found by searching “Myles Bartley.” So far, more than $10,000 has been raised through the site. He also has a bank account that anyone can donate to by mentioning Myles’ name at any Lake City Bank location. Finally,

those interested can keep up with Myles’ progress through the “Miles for Myles” Facebook page, which documents his progress. “We’re just hoping for a summer transplant,” said Bridget. “He’s a good boy.”

The passing of Carol this past January left “The Entertainers”

searching for an answer as to continue or let “The Entertainers” be a part of Peabody history. They felt as a group that they should continue under a new leader and entertain as a legacy to Carol.

Bill is involved in many musical organizations playing several instruments. If you like all kinds of music and enjoy the camaraderie of all age groups this is the group for you.

Ivan Stoltzfus travels through Wabash...continued from front page keep saying America is one big family, and families take care of each other.” Over the last year, Ivan has been preparing for the journey, which he estimates will take just under four months. With the help of several companies near his hometown of Honey Brook, Penn., he was able to assemble the custom rig with which he is

slowly crossing the country. Powering the journey is a 1948 John Deere Model A. The fully restored tractor was fitted with a Peterbilt semi truck cab and appropriately named the “Johnabilt.” Ivan will spend most of his summer inside the little cab listening to the two-cylinder engine he loves so much. The

machine, which once pulled plow and planter, now pulls a 22-foot camper. Attached to the back of the camper is a little yellow scooter named “Smiley,” which Ivan uses for short runs to the grocery and other places he doesn’t want to take the rig. On April 26, Ivan ceremonially backed the camper into the

waters of the Atlantic Ocean in Manasquan, N.J. His final destination is Crescent City, Calif., where he hopes to do the same in the Pacific Ocean. His only notable breakdown happened just miles from his home when his rear axle broke. “They completely went over it; they put new bearings and seals in, but no one

thought about checking the 3 inch axle. They just never heard of an axle snapping,” said Ivan. “Fortunately, it was close to my place, and within two days, they had the cab off and the old axle out, and by the third day, they had everything back together.” With the tractor fixed, the journey continued. Things got a little tense as Ivan crossed the mountains in western Pennsylvania and eastern Ohio. “I went up the first mountain, and when I got up to the top there, it just felt like it went straight down. My hair stood up on my back,” said Ivan. “I feel like I’m ready for the Rockies. They’re higher, but [the roads] aren’t as steep and straight.” From there, Ivan took the old Lincoln Highway through the farmlands of Ohio, during which the former farmer says he was “in his glory.” “It’s humbling,” said Ivan. “When I was coming down old Lincoln Highway, people were out cheering when I was coming by, and when I went across the Allegheny River and the Susquehanna River in Pennsylvania, people were standing on either side of the bridge cheering.” Though Ivan thinks his trip will take just less than four months, he has planned to take a year away from the auction business for the trip. He doesn’t have his itinerary set in stone and is keeping his schedule open for auctions and fundraisers as they come up. He travels

between 30 and 100 miles a day, depending on his destinations. Remarkably, the route he chose for his cross-country trip brought him right through Wabash. “Triple A Auction Service in New Haven called me a couple months ago and said, ‘We’d like to do an auction to help you with the benefit, and I was excited about that,” said Ivan, who is working with auctioneers across the country to raise money. “It was just a little bit out of the way, but it was worth it, [so] I just chose to take 24 across Indiana.” After passing through Wabash, Ivan was headed for a campground just past Logansport to call home for the evening. Since then, he has made several fundraising stops in Illinois. In addition to auctions and fundraising events, Ivan is stopping at VA hospitals along the way to visit with veterans. As this article was written, he was just east of the Mississippi River in the northern Illinois city of Moline visiting the John Deere world headquarters. When he came through Wabash, he had just surpassed the $50,000 mark in his fundraising endeavors. After a few stops in Illinois, he is just shy of $60,000. He hopes to raise $1,000,000 for the veterans’ charity before he reaches the West Coast. “We need some big sponsors and some big foundations to reach that million, but it doesn’t matter

how small an amount they can give, we’re just so grateful,” said Ivan. Any cross-country trip on the road is a long one, but Ivan’s chosen mode of transportation means his progress is exceptionally slow. Though his tractor can pull the camper as fast as 17 mph, he doesn’t like to run his RPMs that high. While it’s a slow pace for such a long journey, he’s gotten used to it. “You kind of set yourself up to that,” Ivan said of the slow pace. “You know, now, if I’d be in a car, I’d be just frigid. I’m relaxed. Sometimes, I think I’m going too fast, so I’ll slow it back to 14 (mph), especially when I’m out here enjoying the country. I don’t want to go too fast. I don’t want to get there too quick, so I’ll slow up just a little bit and enjoy the countryside.” Ivan’s progress can be tracked on a map in real time by visiti n g HelpAmericanHeroes .com. You can also see pictures of his travels, read his blog posts, and check to see Ivan’s progress toward his $1,000,000 goal. Finally, the site offers visitors a chance to donate to Ivan’s cause, the Wounded Warriors Project. “Our veterans had so much love for us, and a lot of them paid the ultimate price so I could be free, and I feel like it’s my responsibility now to show that love back, make awareness, and try to make life easier for them,” said Ivan.

Crash claims the life of Wabash woman

At approximately 6:12 a.m. May 27, the Wabash County Sheriff â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Department responded to a car crash on SR 13, north of the Somerset Bridge. Upon arrival, officers located two victims still in the vehicle. The vehicle, a 2000 Chevy Cavalier, was southbound on SR 13 and abruptly left the roadway on the west side, struck a guardrail, and flipped into the ditch. The vehicle came to rest on its roof approximately fifty yards off of the roadway. The Wabash County

Coroner, Carol Whitesel, pronounced the driver, Linda A. Howard, 66, Wabash, dead at the scene. The cause of death was blunt force trauma. Her husband, who was a passenger, George S. Howard, 58, Wabash, was flown to Lutheran Hospital, and was listed in serious condition with a possible concussion and multiple fractures. Seatbelts and other safety equipment were in use, but due to the extent of the damage, they would not have prevented the injuries. The cause of the

crash has been under investigation. The Wabash County Sheriff â&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Department was notified at 11:55 a.m. of information received from the hospital, advising the passenger, George Howard, stated that a deer jumped into the roadway and Linda Howard swerved to miss the deer.

Norse move to 3A sectional championship

by Gary Andrews In their first season of playing up a class because of the success factor, the Northfield baseball is one win away from a sectional championship in 3A. After out lasting Eastbrook on Thursday the Norse rode the bat if Bryce Kendall in a 4-3 win over Columbia City Saturday to move to the championship game Monday against Norwell, who defeated Heritage 6-4. The Norse had Shane Vigar on the mound, who held Columbia City to just one hit the first two innings while the Norse threatened to score both innings without a run. In the bottom of the first Adam Roser

reached on an error but was picked off first for the first out. Bryce Kendall then tripled and he was picked off third before a Drake Richter single. Shane Vigar then hit a line drive out. In the second Nate Hembree singled with one out with Joseph Mitchell following reaching on a fielders choice. Mitchell would advance to second on a passed ball when Brad Bever singled to put runners on the corners, but again the Norse couldn’t score. In the top of the third the Eagles got a single and a double to take a 1-0 lead, but as in the Eastbrook game the Norse had an answer in the bot-

Drake Richter would then single, followed by Shane Vigar being hit by a pitch, but a strike out and a fly out ended the inning. The fourth inning was when the Norse made some major noise. With one out Brad Bever drew a walk, then with two outs Adam Roser singled. Again, for the second time Bryce Kendall smoked a shot over the center field fence, this time a three run dinger to give the Norse a 4-1 lead. Drake Richter singled after the Kendall homer, but three was all they

would get an led 4-1 after four. There would be one hit combined the next two innings by the two teams heading to the 7th when Columbia City gave the Norse a scare. With one out a Norse error would put an Eagle runner on second. A ground ball to Roser at short made it two outs with the runner advancing to third when a single made it 4-2. One batter later a double drove in another run to make it 4-3 with the tying run on second. The next hitter hit a shot to right field with Dylan Brown making a diving catch for the third out to end the game, 4-3.

Wabash Musicale holds May meeting Wabash Musicale met May 20, in the home of Norma Trump. Twenty-three members and one guest were present. “Seasons of Music” is the theme and we enjoyed May “Steamy and Hot.” Chairperson Susie Jones introduced our first number “Consider Yourself ”, a delightful song from the musical, “Oliver”, written by Lionel Bart. He never learned to read or write musical notation, and yet went on to be a composer and writer of British pop music and musicals. He wrote the book, music, and lyrics for “Oliver”. Norma Trump, Kathie Grandstaff, Minda Lehman, and Marilyn

Ford played “Consider Yourself ” on three pianos. Beth Perkins accompanied by Eileen Dye, working hard but still happy sang “The Happy Working Song” from the Walt Disney movie “Enchanted”. Allen Menkin wrote the song with lyrics by Stephen Schwartz. Ellen Mock and Beth Perkins performed one of Irving Berlin’s songs, “Heat Wave”. Irvin Berlin, considered the greatest songwriter in America, wrote it in 1933 for the musical “As Thousands Cheer”. Gershwin called him the greatest songwriter that has ever lived. Eileen Dye accompanied them.

Anne Curless and Minda Lehman, played on two pianos; an Improvisation on “Ode to Joy”. This famous melody was written in 1824, music by Beethoven and arranged by Mark Hayes, an internationally known composer and arranger from Kansas City, Missouri. Ellen Mock chose “Fever” due to the “Steamy and Hot” day. It was written by Eddie Cooley ad Otis

Blackwell, who used the pseudonym John Davenport. Little Willie John originally recorded it in 1956. In 1958, Peggy Lee recorded the song with rewritten lyrics composed by Lee herself, without credit, and her version peaked on the Billboard Hot 100. It was nominated “Record of the Year” in 1959 Grammy Awards. Eileen Dye accompanied Ellen with “Fever”.

This is the 50th anniversary of the musical “Hello Dolly”. Norma trump on accorgan, Minda Lehman on grand piano, and Kathie Grandstaff on the studio piano played the song written by Jerry Herman. Herman was born in 1931 and also wrote “Mame” and “Le Cage Aux Folles”. “More” (Theme from Mondo Cane 1962 film) is a film score written by Riz Ortani and Nino

Oliviero. The melody, which became known as “More” is presented four times in styles ranging from lush to march and ¾ waltz. Norma Trump, Kathie Grandstaff, and Minda Lehman played on three pianos. Beth Perkins, Eileen Dye, Peggy Coppler, and Susie Jones are singing a beautiful song from the Celtic Woman Show called “The Sky, the Dawn, and The

Sun”. David Downes and Brenden Graham wrote it. Downes was born in Dublin, and has performed piano all over the world. Graham is an Irish novelist and composer, has published three novels and written lyrics for many famous songs. Minda Lehman accompanied them. Hostesses were Delight Howes, Ellen Mock, Marilyn Ford, and Josie Wade.

Dam-to-Dam ride to be held in September Visit Wabash County has partnered with the Rock City Bike Club to organize a professional century bike ride to take place on Sunday, Sept. 14. Multiple route lengths are available: 15, 30, 50, 62 (Metric Century) and 100 (Century) miles. Registration includes a free commemorative t-shirt. The Wabash County YMCA will serve as the host for the starting and finishing point for each route. A light breakfast is included with registration along with a post-ride lunch provided in-kind by Miller’s Merry Manor. “The Dam to Dam committee has established a relationship with bike clubs and shops throughout the state,” said Christine Flohr, director of tourism and organiz-

ing liaison for the event. “Wabash is gaining notoriety in the cycling community throughout the Mid-west because of the Dam to Dam ride,” Flohr continued. “Marketing analytics show an interest in our county from other states as a direct result of this event. I am encouraged by the registration response that we have already seen from Indiana, Michigan, Illinois, and Massachusetts.” The ride slated for early fall currently has over 60 participants confirmed. “The ride is not a race,” said Tod Minnich, executive director of the H o n e y w e l l Foundation, Rock

It is a great way to show-off the entire county.” In order to encourage attendees of the century ride to extend their stay, the film Rising from Ashes will be featured at the Eagles Theatre the

night before the ride and is free to participating cyclists. Rising from Ashes is a feature length documentary about two worlds colliding when cycling legend Jock Boyer moves to Rwanda, Africa to help a group of struggling genocide survivors pursue their dream of a national cycling team. Sponsors are vital to the success of an event of this magnitude. “The committee knew that we had to

create a very professional, high-quality ride,” said Mike Paul, CEO of Mike Paul’s Construction, LLC, Rock City Bike Club member and Dam-toDam committee member. “And we knew that it would take the support of multiple sponsors for us to be able to execute that type of experience for the riders. Our entire county has stepped up to the plate and we are so grateful for their support.”

Hipsher Tool & Die, Inc. to hold open house for retirees

GREG FEATHERSTONE

STEVE LYNCH

by Emily Armentrout Hipsher Tool & Die, Inc. will be celebrating the retirement of two of their employees with an open house and hog roast. Steve Lynch and Greg Featherstone will both retire at the beginning of June and the open house will be held June 13 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Hipsher Tool & Die, Inc., located at 1593 S. State Road 115, Wabash. “They have done a fabulous job in the years they have been here, “ said general manager, Julie Dahl. “Greg has brought in quite a lot of new business for us since he’s been here and Steve has done his duty and kept the shop floor moving,” added Dahl. Greg Featherstone has been with Hipsher Tool & Die, Inc. for the past four years. He started working at Hipsher after working at

Wabash Metal Products for 18 years as a design engineer. “Jobs get old, especially for engineers. The time I have spent here has been fun. This is a great way to finish a career,” Featherstone said of his time at Hipsher Tool & Die. Featherstone does mechanical design, pneumatic and hydraulic design along with quoting and other odd jobs. “It’s a small business so everyone does a little bit of everything,” Featherstone told The Paper. Featherstone plans to spend the first year of retirement transitioning from a 40-hour workweek and doing some traveling. “I’m just going to take a breath and take some of those vacations I haven’t been able to take.” Steve Lynch has been working at Hipsher Tool & Die, Inc. for 45 years. He started out at their old

building on Cass Street as a 19-year-old kid, who didn’t have a lot of experience. “Jerry and Jim’s dad hired me and they just brought me along,” Lynch explains of how his career started. Lynch was made shop foreman 20 years ago and has been going strong ever since. As shop foreman, Lynch’s responsibilities include keeping jobs running through the shop, keeping the deliveries up and odd jobs, with a project of his own that he works on. “We build machine parts for different people. We build parts for the BraunAbility Corporation, who make handicap lifts for vans,” explained Lynch. Lynch plans to spend his retirement getting back to what he loves, which includes woodworking and car shows.

“I have a ’77 Corvette. I do between 20 and 30 car shows a year. You meet an extraordinarily nice group of people,” Lynch told The Paper. Lynch’s favorite part about working at Hipsher Tool & Die

has been working with his hands. “I love seeing something come from the raw material to the finished product and this has been an enjoyable place to work for 45 years.”

Northfield names new boys’ varsity basketball coach by Emily Armentrout On May 28, Northfield’s athletic director, Geoff Salmon, and principal, Mike Keaffaber, held a meet and greet at the school for Northfield’s new varsity boys’ basketball coach, Patrick Hopkins. Hopkins is recent graduate of Indiana Wesleyan, where he not only had a successful basketball career but was also a youth mentor. He is licensed to teach physical education and health, and is currently seeking a teaching position around the area. While at Indiana Wesleyan University,

Hopkins was a twotime All American, conference player of the year, and was voted the IWU male athlete of the year. “I believe in what I am going to coach. I had personal success at Indiana Wesleyan under the new National Coach of the Year, Greg Tonagel, so I’ve had great mentors and I believe in what we can do,” said Hopkins. “I love basketball and I love kids. I was helped, as a kid, through sports, to become a better person and my mentors really helped me out like that and so I want to return the favor to a younger generation by helping some boys

turn into men by teaching them life skills. “And luckily I was given basketball and I feel like I can be a good coach and so it all fit together. God gave me the opportunity to coach and I am excited about it,” “Patrick Hopkins has a genuine interest in making personal connections that build trust and enthusiasm,” said Jeff Clark, associate head coach for Indiana Wesleyan. Coach Hopkins was previously the head junior varsity coach at Alexandria Monroe High School, where he was also the varsity assistant basketball

coach. “I am very excited to bring Coach Hopkins to Northfield. I believe his passion for basketball and mentoring young men will be welcomed by our entire community. Patrick brings a contagious personality as well as a history of success in basketball to our program,” said Northfield Athletic Director Geoff Salmon. Hopkins recently held a team meeting to get to know some of his players, and though only a few showed up, Hopkins is excited for their first practice. “We had a team meeting and a

27 Joel Stein answers legal Editor’s note: The Paper welcomes questions in new column Joel Stein and his new legal column THE PAPER

www.thepaperofwabash.com

June 4, 2014

The Paper of Wabash County is happy to announce its new legal column from contributor and local attorney Joel K. Stein. In our continued efforts to bring you quality news and information, we are always looking for new types of content from knowledgeable, local sources. We also recognize that navigating legal matters can be confusing for anyone, so when we found out Joel was interested in writing a column, we jumped on the opportunity. A graduate of Wabash High School, Marquette University (B.A. in Sociology), Indiana Graduate School of Business (M.B.A.), and Indiana University School of Law (J.D.), Joel has been practicing law in

Wabash since 1999. He co-founded the law firm of Lynn and Stein, P.C. with Kristina L. Lynn. Joel has represented clients locally, statewide, and nationally in areas of law including business start-ups and planning, litigation, contracts, general corporate matters, family law, estate planning and administration, employment issues, real estate transactions and zoning, trademark registration, tax abatement, and state and federal government relations. Prior to his return to Wabash, Joel was a partner in a sports marketing agency with an emphasis on licensing and event promotion and management. He was also a co-owner of an

Internet service provider in the infancy of the Internet and a consultant to a number of not-for-profit organizations. In addition, he founded and served as the president of the Hoosier Alliance Against Drugs, a position to which he was appointed by then Governor Evan Bayh. He was named a “Sagamore of the Wabash” for distinguished service to the State of Indiana for this work. Joel is married to Beth (Squires) Stein, and they have three children: Jack, a sophomore at Indiana University in Bloomington; Abby, a junior at Wabash High School; and Matthew, an eighth grader at Wabash Middle School.

We’re excited to welcome Joel as a part of our team. Though his column should not be considered legal advice, and it is not intended to answer specific legal questions, we hope it will work to better inform our readers about general legal principles. We also hope that it will give everyone a better idea about where to start when it comes to legal matters. We already have topics in mind for future columns, but Joel is also interesting writing on the public’s legal curiosities. If you have an idea for a future legal column from Joel K. Stein, email him at lynnandstein@gmail. com. We are happy to have Joel on our team.

W.C. Mills becomes pilot school for Wabash River Junior Defenders

by Emily Armentrout On Friday, May 23, Jen Rankin, Executive Director of the Wabash County Solid Waste Management District, along with other volunteers from the Wabash community joined forces with W.C. Mills Elementary fourth grade students to clean up the portion of Charley Creek that runs through the Wabash City Park. “We’ve been putting this together for some time. We’ve had a lot of younger children interested in the clean up, but because of the dangers involved, we had to limit the age to about 13. With that, we started thinking that we needed to do something. Everything you teach them, if you make it fun and interesting, they absorb it. We put our minds together and decided to do a Junior Defenders program,” Rankin told The Paper. After meeting with W.C. Mills principal, Mike Mattern, who loved the idea, Rankin and her crew decided to choose the fourth grade students. “Fourth graders still get excited about stuff,” explained Rankin. The crew went into W.C. Mills in the morning, to each classroom, and told the students

the story of “Freddy Fish.” Freddy is a fish that lives in a clean, shaded area of a river. After getting bored, he travels downstream and finds all different kinds of pollution. This story taught the students about environmental issues like erosion and the different types of toxins from runoff. The crew taught them that anything we put in the water has an effect on the rest of the water. The students also thought it was cool to learn that the Wabash River is a tributary to the Gulf of Mexico. The Wabash River runs into the Ohio River, which runs into the Mississippi River, which empties out into the Gulf of Mexico. After the classroom presentations, the students were bused to the city park, where they saw another presentation. They were challenged to find as many pollutants as they could and identify them by using the knowledge they gained during each presentation. “In about 30 minutes, those kids picked up about 300 pounds of trash. What is so amazing about that is that this part of the creek is one of the cleanest areas of the city because it’s in the park and the Parks

Department is cleaning all the time,” explained Rankin. After the students cleaned up their area of the creek, the students made a pledge to become a Wabash River Junior Defender. “I (state your name), as a Wabash River

Junior Defender, promise to do my best to protect my local tributary. I understand my decisions effect the environment and the wildlife, which live in it. I will do my best to make good decisions because I am a Wabash

I have been an attorney for more than 25 years with experience in many areas of the law. It is from that background that the idea for this column was born, and I sincerely appreciate The Paper for its cooperation in making it available as a service to its readers. This column will appear on an occasional basis with the primary purpose being to provide general information on various areas of the law, and, hopefully, remove some of the confusion and mystery as to how the law impacts the lives of each one of us. One thing this column is not intended to do is replace actual legal advice, nor should you delay seeking legal advice, disregard legal advice, or start or discontinue any legal action because of information in this column. Like most attorneys, I am frequently approached by people – at church, school events, sporting events, social functions, the grocery or drug store etc. – with a variety of questions about legal issues that impact

their lives. Those questions cover many topics, including: • My spouse is going to have to go to a nursing home in the near future, so am I going to end up homeless and broke? • I just got sued; now what do I do? • How do I start a business or not-forprofit organization? • Once I start that business how do I protect my property and myself from liability? • Do I need a will? • A loved one recently passed away. How do we go about distributing his/her assets? • How can I modify custody, child support and or visitation regarding my children? Answers to virtually every legal question require careful consideration be given to the unique facts of a particular case or situation. Therefore, while the general information in this column may help you ask more informed questions if you do meet with an attorney, it is not intended to answer specific questions regarding the law or a particular case. If you have such questions, you should consult an attorney.

A SK

In communicating with my clients, I use normal, everyday language, avoiding what is often called “legalese”. If the use of a legal term is required in creating this column, I will do my best to clearly explain the meaning of any such word. Finally, this column is intended to cover a broad range of topics, including family law, wills and trusts, farm law, changes in Indiana law, cases in the national news, etc., so if you have a topic that is of particular interest to you and would like to have it considered for use in a future column, please e-mail your suggestion(s) to lynnandstein@gmail. com. Just remember, specific questions cannot be answered through or in this column, and no attorney-client or confidential relationship shall be created through the submission of any e-mails to the author of this column. Thank you. Joel K. Stein Joel K. Stein and Kristina L. Lynn are the co-founders of the Wabash law firm of Lynn & Stein, P.C.

in nice and dry and came out soaking wet. They had fun,” Rankin added. Normally, the last Saturday in July is the river clean up date. Due to the great efforts of the River Defenders in the area, there isn’t a great need to warrant 300 volunteers, so on Saturday, July 26, there is going to be a celebration. They will be serving local caught fish and creek bank taters. There will be live music and a river float. The float begins in Lagro. You can take boats, canoes, rafts, etc. They will be floating from Lagro to Paradise Spring Park, where the celebration will begin.

Dear editor, That $25 that is added into our property tax, it is to make our recycling free. The plastics that are not ones and twos, though not Styrofoam, paint cans with oil base, car tires within limitations of quantity, fluorescent light bulbs, and on and on, should be taken to the Waste Management place on Manchester Ave., where the old REMC building was decades ago. It’s free. I was there today and though they were closed for the election, they took my recycling stuff. Please take advantage folks. Save our beautiful earth. You just cannot imagine what all is made from recycling items. Any questions, go to slashthetrash.com. Mary Lengel Wabash

By collecting aluminum cans, VCF has been able to build five homes for those in desperate need of a shelter in Haiti, and they are now on their way to building their sixth home.
