Firefighter removed from Wabash City Fire Department following Nov. 7 disciplinary hearing Unanimous decision comes as a result of guilty plea from March domestic battery incident

by Brent Swan Wabash City Firefighter Troy Phillipy was terminated during the Nov. 7 Wabash City Board of Public Works Special Disciplinary Hearing following a nearly eight-month suspension. Phillipy was originally suspended after his March 17 arrest for domestic battery, a Class A Misdemeanor.

In his criminal trial, Phillipy pled guilty to the single charge of domestic battery in return for a sentence that would place him in the Alternative Batterer’s Program, which would result in the charges being dropped upon successful completion.

During the Special Disciplinary Hearing held Nov. 7, Phillipy appeared before the board members Mayor Bob Vanlandingham and Dee Byerly, along with John Gilpin, who stepped in for board member Greg Metz who had recused himself from the proceedings as Phillipy is a former brother in law.

The hearing began as Wabash City Attorney Doug Lehman called Lisa Bever, a witness to the incident, to give her testimony as to what she observed on March 17.

Bever spoke that she and her husband, Tim, were on their way to her in-laws when they came across a vehicle parked in the roadway south of the narrows on SR 524. Bever stated she noticed both front doors of the vehicle had been left open and she saw a man and woman tusseling in the ditch.

“At first we couldn’t really tell what was going on,” Bever said during her statement. “I saw the man hit the woman across the face and heard her yelling for help. My husband called 911 and at that time he dropped her and she fell to the ground. He started to walk in the direction of our vehicle, and that’s when I realized how exposed I really was.”

Upon cross examination, Phillipy’s attorney, Jordan Tandy of Tiede, Metz, and Downs, asked Bever if Phillipy had made any threatening movements towards her or her husband to which she said he had not.

Wabash County Sheriff ’s Deputy Ben Duecker was called to give his statement of the investigation into the incident.

Duecker described that upon arriving at the scene, first responders and witnesses stated that the male had left the scene of the incident. Witnesses

described the vehicle as a red Ford Expedition and identified the male as Troy Phillipy.

Duecker said he contacted the Lafontaine Town Marshal, Denny Jones, to be enroute to Phillipy’s residence in an attempt to locate him. Duecker also sent Sheriff ’s Reserve

Deputy David Rigney and Sheriff ’s Deputy Eric Ryggs to LaFontaine to transport Phillipy to the Sheriff ’s Department for follow up questioning.

Duecker then stated that while at the Sheriff ’s Department, he had adminis-

tered a blood alcohol test, which determined Phillipys BAC to be .12. Duecker said he then placed him under arrest for Domestic Battery.

In his cross-examination, Tandy asked Duecker if the blood alcohol test could deter(continued on page 7)

Madd Maddy’s opens in LaFontaine

By Ashley Flynn Lafontaine – the home of approximately 875 people and one restaurant.

For years, Lafontaine has been without a restaurant, but on Sept. 23, Madd Maddy’s opened their doors after four months of renovations.

Owner Trisha Bailey and the community were more than ready for the restaurant to open, which is located at the former location of Sidekicks, 17 W. Branson Street.

“After being stuck in here for four months remodeling and then finally being able to see people walk in the doors and sit down and eat was great. It’s been a long four months,” said Trisha. “The community has been very supportive, and they were anxious. People would stop by and

ask if I needed help. They wanted a restaurant, and they got it.”

Madd Maddy’s, named after Trisha’s youngest daughter, serves breakfast, lunch and dinner entrees. Being the only restaurant in town, Trisha knew she would face a lot of challenges. She understands the difficulties of pleasing everyone, but is determined to have a top-notch menu. That’s why she hired two very-well trained chefs.

Trisha’s oldest daughter, Christine Cooper, received her Associate’s degree in culinary arts from Sullivan University in Louisville, Ky. She is currently the executive chef at Marion General Hospital, and put many of her recipes on the Madd Maddy’s menu.

European chef, Pepe, has

been in the states less than a year. He born in Spain, and trained in London where he owned restaurants and helped many others. Chef Pepe specializes in Italian recipes but also cooks other European and Chinese dishes.

“I want a reputation for having outstanding food because that’s what brings people in,” said Trisha who knows plenty about the restaurant business.

For the last four and a half years she worked as a dining room manager at Ugalde’s.

“I’ve been in the restaurant business all my life and in pretty much every aspect of it.

I’ve done dishes, been a waitress and all that. I got tired of working for people who didn’t appreciate me, and I’ve always wanted to own my own restaurant. My grandfather owned

several of his own, so it’s in my blood.”

The restaurant also has a full-service bar with beer, wine and liquor. They plan on keeping the bar open longer than the dining room depending on business, which is a challenge in itself in small towns.

Trisha is ready to take on that challenge and hopes to put Lafontaine on the map with a good reputation.

“I want to be known for having good food and having people travel to get here,” said Trisha. “I love seeing customers from Ugalde’s come in and support me. It’s all been very rewarding. I hope to stay as long as I can as long as people support me.”

Drive skills test not required for some Veterans to receive CDL license The Indiana Bureau of Motor Vehicles (BMV) will waive the required drive skills test for select veterans of the U.S. Armed Forces who had specific drive training and were truck drivers during their military service when they apply for an Indiana Commercial Driver’s License (CDL). The Indiana Military CDL Skills Waiver Program began on Nov. 12.

Under federal guidelines governing the issuance of CDLs, all applicants must

pass a written knowledge test and a drive skills test. Under the new rules, the BMV may waive the skills test requirement for a veteran who completed an approved military driver training program and operated a truck as a regular duty. Using a form available on the myBMV.com website or at any BMV license branch, the applicant will need to document his/her military service and training. If the skills test waiver is approved, the applicant will only need to

pass the Indiana CDL written test to receive his/her CDL. If a veteran has not completed an approved military driver training program but can document that he/she has operated trucks in the military service, the BMV program requires the applicant to take both the IN CDL written knowledge and skills tests, but the fees for the skills test and the truck rental will be reimbursed if the applicant passes the tests.

R. Scott Waddell, Indiana BMV

Commissioner commented, “We are very pleased to offer this special program for the men and women of our Armed Forces who have dedicated their lives to protecting our Nation and the freedoms that we enjoy as Americans.

As these men and women either separate from the Armed Forces or continue to serve the Reserves or National Guard, and seek employment in civilian workforce, this program will assist them in finding jobs using their military skills and training.”

CountryMark acquires East Region assets of Continental Resources Indianapolis-based CountryMark has announced an agreement to purchase the crude oil and natural gas properties of the East Region of C o n t i n e n t a l Resources, Inc.

With this purchase, CountryMark will add to its portfolio wells that produce an average of 1,100 barrels of equivalent crude oil per day. The majority of the oil and natural gas production is located in the geographic region known as the Illinois Basin, which encompasses much of southern Indiana and Illinois, and western K e n t u c k y .

CountryMark will also acquire from Oklahoma City-based Continental crude oil and natural gas prop-

erties in Michigan, Mississippi and Kansas. In total, the acquisition will give CountryMark interest in 121,000 acres across six states.

“For years, Continental has been an excellent operator in the Illinois Basin,” said CountryMark CEO Charlie Smith.

“This purchase brings to our company established production with upside potential for continued development and e x p l o r a t i o n .

business into our operation is a great opportunity for our company to secure feedstock for our refinery, while providing a good economic return for our farmer owners.”

CountryMark is a farmer-owned cooperative and is Indiana’s only American-owned oil exploration, production, refining and marketing company.

As the largest buyer of Illinois Basin crude, CountryMark refines 26,800 barrels of crude oil per day at its Mt. Vernon, Indiana, refinery.

Located in the southwest tip of the state, the refinery opened in 1940. CountryMark entered the oil exploration and drilling business in 2008.

Smith added that investing in the

Illinois Basin has been and will continue to be strategic to the success of CountryMark. “ D e p l o y i n g advanced technologies in our exploration and production efforts, as well as our refining and logistics endeavors will be positive for our farmer owners, the Indiana oil and gas industry, the economic development opportunities of the tri-state area, and American energy security,” said Smith.

CountryMark agreed to purchase the Continental East Region assets for $125 million. The transaction is expected to close prior to yearend and is subject to customary closing conditions and adjustments.

BIGGEST MALLThanksgiving break at the YMCA: an opportunity for fun THE THE PAPER Registration is Underway for youth Kindergarten through Grade 6 During the school year, 15.1 million U.S. children are left unsupervised after 3 p.m. or on scheduled or unscheduled days out of school, according to the Afterschool Alliance, a nonprofit public awareness advocacy organization. In Indiana, 30 percent of children are left alone and responsible for taking care of themselves.

As Thanksgiving School Break

approaches, the Wabash County YMCA encourages parents to make sure that children are involved in safe, educational experiences afterschool and during Fall Break.

“At the Wabash County YMCA, we believe all kids deserve the opportunity to discover who they are and what they can achieve,” said Bill Barrows, Senior Program Director, Wabash County YMCA. “In the Y’s Childcare Initiative programs, youth are cultivating values, skills and rela-

tionships and have an extra support system that encourages them to achieve success.”

Studies show participation in afterschool and school days off programs help boost school attendance and academic performance and reduce gaps in academic achievement among children from disadvantaged households.

Since parents’ work schedules do not always match children’s school days off, continuous care is offered during Thanksgiving Break (Wednesday and

Friday Nov. 21 and 23) at the YMCA. Our dedicated staff will provide a safe and supportive environment, help develop interpersonal skills, help support each child’s educational success and offer some cool activities during the break from normal school activities.

The kids will be involved in a number of activities during Thanksgiving Break at the Y. Outdoor activities; if weather permits, plus use of the gyms and of course both swimming pools will pro-

vide a number of opportunities for fun in a safe environment for all of those involved.

Financial assistance is available.

Visit the Y or wabashcountyymca.org for more details.

4 Community Foundation of Wabash County Joins Northeast Indiana Partnership for Collective Impact www.thepaperofwabash.com

If, as studies show, earning power over a lifetime is directly related to a person’s level of education, citizens of Wabash County have cause for concern. In the county

and surrounding region, less than 35% of working adults have two- or four-year college degrees or credentials. Despite low educational attainment, by 2018 well

over half of all jobs in the region will require post-high school degrees. The C o m m u n i t y Foundation of Wabash County is joining with the Northeast Indiana Regional Partnership for economic development to change the story of education in the area.

The Foundation and other organizations in this multi-member partnership are committed to the “Big Goal,” which aims to raise the rate of high-quality degree holders to 60% by 2025 and sustain it for the long term.

According to the Indiana Institute for Working Families, a majority of jobs in the region are “middle skill” jobs that require training and education beyond high school but less than a four-year degree. Middle skill jobs include construction, high-tech manufacturing, nursing, healthcare, trucking, biotechnology, policing, and firefighting.

Some of these professions provide on the job training, but most require some formal schooling after high school.

Without completing high school, a worker in a low skill job, on average, makes only $16,000 a year. A high school diploma bumps that up to $26,500, and a bachelor’s degree yields $39,000 annually, on average.

The low number of Americans with postsecondary education has remained unchanged for 40 years, even as nonprofits have been waving the banner of education tirelessly. Few have been able to move the dial.

However, recent efforts based on a model of change called “collective impact” show promise.

Since large-scale problems like persistent poverty and unemployment are the result of various pressures on the economy—such as globalization, politics, and technolog y—collective impact believes that solutions to problems also lie in a variety of coordinated pressures.

Isolated efforts cannot undo what many forces have created.

The Partnership is gathering together public and private, profit and nonprofit organizations, such as community foundations, to put their shoulders to the wheel (continued on page 5)

Community Foundation of Wabash County... continued from page 4

of large-scale change.

But if collective efforts are to have an impact, four things must happen. First, collective impact requires that each member organization have a shared vision and align itself with a common agenda. In this case, the agenda for the Big Goal is to increase educational attainment. No matter what a member organization brings to the effort, it must be in sync with the commonly agreed upon agenda.

Second, partners must choose a shared measurement system for gauging their collective impact.

Consistent data provides valuable feedback and guides the process forward.

Common wisdom says “What gets measured gets done.” One failure of isolated efforts in creating large-scale social change has been the absence of useful, consistent data. A school system that uses standardized tests to determine effectiveness has little basis for comparison with a high school that defines effectiveness by completion rates.

Collective impact requires that like groups in the collaborative use comparable measurements.

Third, all activities of the collaboration must be coordinated and mutually supportive. For instance, to achieve economic development through educational attainment, groups as varied as public schools, community foundations, and major industries have to work together. To reach their common goal, each must support the other. For example, schools retool to train a skilled workforce, nonprofits make education affordable through scholarships, and businesses offer job shadowing and mentoring to their future employees in the fifth and sixth grades. Fourth, undertaking a project with dozens of partners requires constant communication.

In Cincinnati, more than 300 organizations make up the Strive Network, which has used collective impact strategies for nearly ten years to successfully to raise educational attainment.

CEOs, school superintendents, and industrial captains alike

met together every two weeks in the beginning to get behind a shared vision, build a partnership, and align their goals. The model takes terrific commitment but shows terrific results. In just one of dozens of indicators, Northern Kentucky University, a member of the Strive Network, has

seen a 17 percent increase in college completion rates since they started their work in 2001. The collective impact model has been successfully implemented in many cities across the United States, including Portland, Oregon, Houston, Milwaukee, Long Island, and Richmond, Virginia.

By joining the Big

Goal Collaborative, the Community Foundation of Wabash County makes an ongoing commitment to use its resources in support of educational attainment. Other partners include the Northeast Indiana Regional Workforce Investment Board and the United Way Consortium of Northeast Indiana.

Already, the Foundation has funded the three school districts in the county to provide Begindergarten, a sixweek program to prepare children for kindergarten who have had no preschool e x p e r i e n c e .

Additional activities of the collaborative will be announced.

Mullen thanks Wabash for contributions towards new DAV van

Dear editor, You did it Wabash.

In March 2011 the Wabash DAV drivers

decided to try to raise enough money to buy a new vehicle for our county. Our Veterans have been using an older high milage vehicle for transportation to VA medi c a l appointments. Thank s to you we now have enough money and our new vehicle is expected to arrive some time next summer.

Unfortunately, I can list only the major donors, although this was truly a grassroots effort as my list consists of nearly 100 names of individual donors and local businesses.

A special thank you to Ernie Waggy, Sherri Umbaugh, Treaty Church of Christ Wednesday Bible Study, Beacon Credit Union, Crossroads Bank, and a very special thank you to the Lagro American Legion And Ladies Auxillary, Wabash American Legion and Legion Riders, Wabash VFW Post 286, Ford Meter

There were fewer reports of Indiana farm-related deaths in 2011 than the previous year, including none involving children for the first time in 13 years, according to a new Purdue University report.

The Indiana Farm Fatality Summary reports that 16 people died in farm-related incidents in 2011, down from 23 in 2010.

The number of farmrelated fatalities represents about 13 percent of the 122 fatal work injuries documented in Indiana last year.

While less than 1 percent of Indiana’s workforce is employed in production agriculture, the industry has traditionally been responsible for the highest number of workrelated fatalities in the state.

The report also says that for the first time since 1998, there were no reports of

anyone under the age of 18 being killed in Indiana during farming activities.

Bill Field, Purdue Extension safety specialist, said while it’s good that there’s a declining number of farm fatalities, farmers should still practice preventative safety.

“We’re moving in the right direction, but every one of these incidents is preventable,” Field said.

“We shouldn’t just accept this as something no one can do anything about.”

The study cites several reasons for the decline in farm-related fatalities, including advancements in the safety, productivity and efficiency of agricultural technology, the decline in the portion of the population required to work the land and efforts to educate farmers and agricultural workers about work-related threats.

Field thinks the increasing number of equipment upgrades from older machinery has helped lower the number of farmrelated injuries and fatalities in recent years.

“We’re seeing a retirement of older machinery. Today’s farming units are safer, have better technology, are better guarded and run better overall. Older equipment is being salvaged because of the high price of steel and iron,” Field said.

Tractors remained the most significant agent of injury, accounting for 38 percent of reported fatalities.

Field recommended that those in the agriculture industry continue to place importance on safety, especially when transporting equipment on highways, working around grain storage facilities and allowing

children in the workplace.

He estimated there were nearly 7,000 farm-related injuries in Indiana in 2011, although not that many incidents were reported. Non-fatal incidents are not well documented by any source, but the few reports that were received were severe and involved extended hospital stays.

“From a productivity perspective, these incidents can cost quite a bit of money, and farmers are usually not well insured and have high deductibles. The economic impact for farmers in Indiana is in the millions of dollars. Just a visit to the emergency room can be very expensive,” Field said.

Phillipy removed from Wabash City Fire Department... continued from front page mine when the alcohol had been consumed.

Ducker replied that it could not, it only determines what the actual blood alcohol content is. Phillipy had stated that he had consumed four or five beers after arriving back at his residence.

Lehman then called Wabash City Firefighter/Paramedi cs Carl Hall and Mark Jacobs to describe their accounts of the incident.

Jacobs stated that he and Hall had been dispatched to an unknown domestic battery incident on SR 524 just south of the narrows outside of Lagro. Jacobs said that upon their arrival to the scene, neither he nor Hall realized who was involved until they began speaking with the victim, Melissa Phillipy. Jacobs stated when he realized who was involved, he went back to the ambulance and called Troy to try and figure out what events had led to Melissa being left along the roadway.

“At the time, we really didn’t know what was going on,” Jacobs said. “We were trying to make sure she hadn’t been hit by a car or anything of that nature. Troy told me that they had been arguing and that he had hit her. I told him that we were going to have to take her to the hospital, and he said he would not be going there. I told him that was probably for the best at that point.”

In his cross examination of both Jacobs and Hall, Tandy asked if either could deter-

mine what injuries, if any, had come from Phillipy striking his wife and if any had resulted from her exiting a moving vehicle. Both replied they could not. Tandy then asked if both firefighters thought that Phillipy was a good firefighter and an asset to the fire department; both agreed that he was.

Wabash City Fire Department Chief Bob Mullett was then questioned by Lehman about how this case has affected his department.

“Without a doubt, this has caused a hardship on the guys on the department,” Mullett said. “We’ve been running a man short since March.

Guys have done their part to help cover those shifts, but it has cost us with overtime.”

Another concern expressed by Mullett was the potential for a divide within the ranks.

“No matter what happens here today, there’s going to be someone on the department that thinks the punishment will be too little or too much,” Mullett continued. “I tell these guys that we are all held to a higher standard because we are public safety officers. If you don’t like that idea, then you are in the wrong career.”

Melissa Phillipy then spoke about her side of the March 17 incident, which started at JBT’s, a bar in Lagro.

“We had been out having fun for St. Patrick’s Day with some friends, when

Troy thought he saw something,” Phillipy explained. “After that, he got so angry. I’ve never seen him like that before.”

Troy later gave his version of the events, admitting he had struck his wife, but said he only learned of it after being placed under arrest.

“I was so mad and yelling,” Phillipy said. “I remember yelling at Kenny Kime when we left the bar.

After that, I don’t remember anything until I was home.”

Lehman was quick to ask if his lapse in memory had anything to do with the amount of alcohol he had consumed up to that point.

Phillipy replied that he was not intoxicated after leaving JBT’s.

“I had two mixed drinks at Sidekick’s (a bar in Lafontaine) around lunch,” Phillipy explained.

“We left for JBT’s around 5:30, and I had a couple green beers and an Irish Car Bomb while at JBT’s.”

Phillipy also stated he had four or five beers after arriving back in LaFontaine after the incident because the night had not ended well.

After a brief recess, the board found Phillipy had in fact violated charges within the city’s conduct policy, including conduct unbecoming of an officer. The board then reconvened to determine the punishment.

According to Tandy, Phillipy’s efforts after his plea agreement should have earned him a second chance.

“Mr. Phillipy has completed 21 weeks of court-ordered treatment with the Bowen Center’s Alternative Batterer program,” Tandy said.

Tandy then called Dr. Patrick Schonbachler, the physician who oversees the Alternative Batterer’s program, to speak on Phillipy’s behalf.

“Troy has been a mentor to many of the younger members of the program,” Dr. Schonbachler said.

“Mr. Phillipy has admitted the assault on his wife and has made very good progress. I believe Mr. Phillipy is an emotionally mature and stable individual. He has earned my respect and my trust.”

When asked by Lehman if temporary lapses in memory are often triggered by anger, Dr. Schonbachler offered his opinion as to the catalyst of the events on March 17.

“Alcohol was the primary contributing factor,” Dr. Schonbachler said.

“He consumed alcohol to the point of intoxication.”

Lehman was quick to then point out that Dr. Schonbachler’s professional opinion directly contradicted Phillipy’s earlier statement that he did not believe he was intoxicated.

“It appears he was intoxicated after all,” Lehman said. “He would want you to believe he just snapped.”

In his closing statements, Lehamn said he believed termination was justified.

Philip Jay Hults is born

“It is clear from evidence that Mr. Phillipy broke the law,” Lehman said.

“He pled guilty to it in court. He was well over the legal limit (alcohol). This is a serious offense and is appropriate for termination.”

Tandy then pointed out that a similar case had happened in the past with a firefighter, Mark Wallace, and that Phillipy and he believed the punishment in this case should mirror the punishment in the prior case.

“Mr. Wallace appeared before the Board of Public Works then for a hearing exactly like this one,” Tandy said. “He was reinstated to the fire department with a 2-1 vote.”

When asked about the Wallace case, Mullett explained that he was not the chief at the time and that the Board of Public Works members had changed as well.

“About a year after the incident, Wallace resigned his position after failing to show up for work,” Mullett explained.

“After something like that, it’s hard to give people

a second chance.”

“Troy admits to a serious offense,” Tandy said to the board. “But what is the appropriate discipline? We cannot forget his skill and dedication. He has saved lives. You heard from two of his fellow firefighters, he is a good firefighter. Should we throw away 15 years of service?”

After a deliberation of about 30 minutes the board returned with its judgment.

“It is the decision of the Board of Works that Troy Phillipy should be terminated effective immediately,” Mayor Bob Va n d l a n d i n g h a m said.

The board’s vote was unanimous.

Tandy said Phillipy will wait until the board issues its specific findings of fact in support of its decision before deciding whether to file a formal appeal.

Elwood man injured after barn crash

ARTHUR HENSLEY, 53, Elwood, allegedly suffered a medical problem at approximately 8 a.m. on Nov. 9, which caused him to drive a 2011 International semi-tractor into a barn at 5384 S. Strawtown Pike in Grant County. (photo provided)

G R A N T COUNTYâ&#x20AC;&#x201C;At approximately 8 a.m. on Nov. 9, officers from the Indiana State Police responded to a single vehicle crash at 5384 South Strawtown Pike (S.R. 37), which injured an Elwood man.

The preliminary investigation by Master Trooper Randy Renbarger revealed that Arthur Hensley, 53, Elwood, was driving a 2011 International semitractor, pulling a flat bed trailer, northbound on Strawtown Pike (S.R. 37) near Grant County Road

600 South. Hensley allegedly suffered a medical problem, which caused him to drive off the west side of the road into a ditch. The truck continued through the ditch, hit a tree, and came to rest after crashing into a barn approximately 300 feet off the road. The barn was located at 5384 South Strawtown Pike. The barn, and farm equipment stored inside, suffered extensive damage.

Hensley was hauling sheet steel for General Logistics located in Elwood. Some of the load was lost after the

semi-tractor crashed into the barn.

Hensley was transported by ambulance to Marion General Hospital with non-life threatening injuries.

Hensley was wearing a seat belt, which Renbarger believes reduced the severity of his injuries.

Neither the use of alcohol nor narcotics is suspected as having contributed to this crash.

Renbarger was assisted at the crash scene by Trooper Eric Parker, Trooper Kevin Miller, Trooper Eric Treon, and Grant County EMS.

God has walked with me my whole life and has taught me to be humble. As hard as it is for me, I now realize that asking for help is another definition of being humble.”

Kay Excellence in Healthcare Award for 2012. The award recognizes contributions to excellence in local healthcare and is named in honor of two prominent Huntington physicians who were instrumental in advancing area health services and in establishing the current Parkview Huntington Hospital.

Dr. Hougendobler completed his medical education at Indiana University, and then returned to practice in his hometown. He has served as a leader in healthcare in Huntington County for the past 30 years.

“Dr. Hougendobler has earned the respect and admiration of his medical peers through

his dedication and insight into professional issues,” said Mike Packnett, Parkview Health Chief Executive Officer.

Parkview Huntington Chief Operating Officer Darlene Garrett pointed out that Hougendobler has been an advocate for pediatrics at the highest levels in the health system and that earlier this year Hougendobler and his staff received national acclaim with the Professional Research Consultants (PRC) Excellence in Healthcare Award.

Hougendobler has provided healthcare to generations of youngsters in Huntington County, as well as to patients in other countries through his many medical mission trips. He also is well known to TV viewers through WPTA’s “Noon Extra” segment, where he an-

swered questions about children’s health.

Nominations for the Dr. R. B. Peare and Dr. John B. Kay Excellence in Healthcare Award were accepted from the public as well as from local physicians and Parkview Huntington Hospital staff and board members. A committee consisting of hospital and community representatives considered all nominations and selected the recipient.

The award was presented by Steven Wynder, MD, member of the Parkview Huntington Hospital board, and Mrs. Sharon Kay on behalf of her late husband, Dr. John B. Kay. The announcement was made Saturday, Oct. 27, at the Parkview Huntington Community Gala presented by Parkview Huntington Foundation.

Parents raise concern over use of school issued computer Dear editor, News articles are on the rise of online dangers facing our kids. Only a few weeks back a 12 year olds girl friend on Facebook turns out to be a “predator” a faculty member from a high school. Luckily, her mother and a police officer met up first with him. Then, the Huntington Youth for Christ leader was caught chatting and sharing inappropriate pictures with kids.

In recent months many more stories have come out as well.

When our daughter was 13 she had limited texting with only a few kids. Within one month we discovered over 2000 texts, many from one boy, which were extremely inappropriate. She remained silent as he warned her his parents would be mad.

Yes, we were naive of the dangers and started paying much closer attention.

From that experience we decided as a family, to stay clear of texting and Facebook

until our kids were older.

Now, our kids have laptops at school and their names are in a directory within the district of over 1000 students. She is capable of getting chat and email from any 12-18 year old plus all staff.

We spoke to the state only after being told by the main office they will not change anything for a few. There is an emailed form, which is online but was not given at registration.

This would be permission to opt in or out with a copy of F E R P A guidelines. We have tried to opt out, but to no avail.

These are a few things we were told at the board meeting. Internet security is ample and better then our homes. Students that access inappropriate sites will be disciplined. They are checking four computers a day for content. They were also not up on the FERPA law.

So we asked who decides what is appro-

priate for our kids?

We have viewed inappropriate advertisements already on our daughter’s computer as well as numerous emails that are questionable. The school is expecting our kids to use self-control on enticing ads and the reading of emails and pop up chats? Adults don’t have self-control on what they click on many times. Board minutes posted online left out many concerns we brought up at the board meeting.

We are not opposed to the Internet, but what is appropriate for our kids should not be defined by the school. We are aware that Facebook, YouTube, and bullying, as well as gaming and cheating, are happening from others we have spoken to.

A relative who works in probation in another county said their office is dealing with kids as young as 12 with school issued computers and stories too graphic too mention here.

Yes, we trust our kids, but knowing what they are view-

ing and whom they are chatting with is how we keep them accountable.

We have a 28 and 24 year-old and never had to voice concerns of this nature. Times are changing and we feel we need to stand for our Christian values. Our convictions on how we raise our kids comes from God’s word not from educators.

We are asking again that tighter restrictions are placed on computers and emails must include parents or not at all.

We have been told no, it is under control.

We have great teachers and monitoring content should not be their job. MSD board meetings are the 2nd and 4th Tuesdays at 6 p.m. at central office. We would like to discuss the rights we have as parents and work together. We hope more parents will be enlightened though this letter.

Fagin notices corporate flag Dear editor, Has anyone else noticed that a certain corporate entity new to Wabash is now flying their corporate flag much higher than

any of the American flags being flown in the area around it?

Doesn’t seem right to me, but then the corporate takeover of America may be fur-

ther along than I realize, and our national sovereignty may not be relevant anymore under globalization. I hope not.

MU defense clamps down on Anderson The Spartans ensure program’s first winning season since 1997 ANDERSON—A stout defensive effort and a quick start helped Manchester University put the exclamation point on a historic 2012 season Saturday, Nov. 10.

Coach Shannon Griffith’s Spartans (64, 6-2 Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference) limited host Anderson University (0-10, 0-8 HCAC) to 98 total yards and rolled to a 38-0 win in the annual Bronze Ball Trophy game.

Manchester’s offense produced 354 yards

with 238 coming on the ground.

Sophomore return specialist Brice Peyton (Covington, Ind.) opened a 21-point first quarter barrage with a 67-yard punt return for a score on MU’s first offensive chance.

Sophomore running back Austin Adams (Dowagiac, Mich.) and junior quarterback Nick Williams (Fort Wayne) added rushing touchdowns to close the first stanza.

The visitors weren’t done moving the ball in the opening half, either. A five-yard dive from senior fullback/tight end Dante Dinkins (East

Wabash County opens girls basketball seasons Indiana’s girls basketball season opened last week and a couple of Wabash County teams earned their first wins.

Northfield opened its season Nov. 6 with a win at Lakeland Christian.

Wabash played Friday and Saturday, winning over Mississinewa, but falling to Marion. Manchester lost to Bluffton Friday.

Here’s what happened:

Apaches go 1-1 Marion height, which featured several girls over 6-foot, posted problems for the Apaches during the Giant’s 55-40 victory.

Lyndsie Thomas led the Apaches with 12 points and Kyleigh Hampton scored 11. Charlie Pardo added nine in the loss.

Wabash defeated Mississinewa on Friday, however, 65-33. Thomas scored 19 to lead Wabash and Hampton added 12, and Claire Cromer chipped in nine.

Manchester falls Bluffton outscored Manchester 19-8 in the third quarter of Friday’s contest at Bluffton en route to a 42-37 victory.

Kayla Flack’s 14 points led the Squires.

Tabby DeWitt added 10 and Kalene Freshour scored five.

Norse win opener Sydney Eltzroth scored 19 points to lead Northfield to a 57-23, season-opening win at Lakeland Christian. Katie Stephan added 12 in the win for the currently 1-1 Norse.

Chicago, Ill.), one of two red zone scores for him, made MU fourfor-four in possessions and touchdowns in the first half. The half ended with the Black and Gold going seven yards in two plays to a close a 28-0 lead.

MU did manage to add 10 more points in the second half despite Anderson’s defense stiffening in the second half by forcing four punts and a fumble. Dinkins bowled in from two yards out, and senior placekicker Kyle Evans (Winamac) drilled a 44-yard field goal to wrap up the Spartans’ 38-point total.

MANCHESTER UNIVERSITY RUSHED for 238 yards and amassed 354 yards of total offense during the Spartan’s 38-0 road win over Anderson University Saturday. MU’s defense held Anderson to 98 total yards of offense. (photo provided) Williams and senior wide receiver Kurt Monix (Crown Point) led the offense.

Williams rushed for an even 100 yards, while Monix hauled in a combined five receptions from Williams and freshman signal caller Logan Haston

eight tackles and a sack, while Coble proved to a thorn in the Ravens’ offense’s side all day with four tackles for losses and three sacks.

The victory cinched the program’s first out-right winning season since 1997. That

was also the same season that Manchester’s defense registered a shutout.

Anderson leads the all-time series 45-21-1 but the Black and Gold has won four of the last five.

Oak Hill edges Northfield

By Gary Andrews After a dominating win over Lakeview Christian to open the season on Nov. 6, the Northfield Lady Norse basketball team was looking to go 2-0 with a win over Oak Hill Friday.

Northfield controlled most of the game, building a lead as much as nine points in the second quarter, before faltering in the final minutes to fall 46-45 to the Eagles.

After several lead changes to start the game the Norse took control on the back of Sydney Eltzroth, who scored eight first quarter-points to lead 14-12 after one.

Eltzroth sank a pair of 3-pointers in the quarter.

“The girls made improvements both effort and play wise from the Lakeland game. It was a very hard fought loss,” said Norse Head Coach Courtney Cervenka.

“Turnovers, decision making, and poor free throw shooting were costly tonight. In spurts tonight, we showed signs of our potential.”

Sidney Reed would give the Norse a fivepoint lead to start the second quarter and the Norse built the lead to 23-14 before Oak Hill clawed their way back. Cherish Leming hit two key buckets to keep Northfield up and led 25-24 at the half.

Oak Hill would have the hot hand out of the locker room, but the Norse withstood the storm to take the lead back at 31-29 on a Katie Stephan bucket.

Stephan would then get a steal for a bucket and raced to a 37-31 lead after three quarters.

With Northfield up 44-38 and 2:30 left on the clock, Oak Hill would start to apply full-court pressure, which Northfield had trouble handling. Still

the Norse hung tough, but some late free throw struggles cost the Norse as Oak Hill took the 46-45 lead with 11.2 seconds left.

On the ensuing Northfield possession, Oak Hill created a steal and ran the clock out for the win.

Goodfella’s Pizza brings new options to factory workers

GOODFELLA’S PIZZA OWNERS DEAN AND TERRI WEAVER recently added a food truck to their business. The truck will sit outside local factories during their lunch hours.

By Ashley Flynn As of Monday, Nov. 12, Wabash factory workers began to notice a white van sitting outside during their lunchtime.

Inside that van is a whole lot of food.

Goodfella’s Pizza, a small locally owned restaurant, will sit a food truck outside a different factory Monday through Friday during lunch hours to accommodate short lunch breaks.

They will serve sandwiches, 8-inch personal pizzas, salads, chips and pop.

The food truck joins the company in good timing as November marks Goodfella’s ninth anniversary. In 2003, lifelong Wabash residents, Terri and Dean Weaver, opened the restaurant with another couple and little cooking experience.

“I just kind of had the idea,” Terri Weaver told The Paper of Wabash County. “It was something I wanted to try, and we kind of surprised ourselves.”

The two couples got together with different recipes and mixed ingredients until they found one they liked.

All their sauces are homemade including the barbeque and alfredo sauce.

Since then, the Weaver’s have become the sole owners and have continued to expand the business.

When they started, they leased a building across the street from their current location.

After a year, they moved into their permanent building, and

in 2009, they added a diner and outside seating. They have gone from three employees to 12 – the most recent being the truck driver.

Terri and Dean both work other jobs, and find Goodfella’s less stressful than the other. They work at the restaurant at least two days a week and do all the scheduling and ordering.

“Time management can be difficult,” said Terri, but adds that the job is very rewarding. “We get to deal with people on a dif-

ferent level (at Goodfella’s) than our other jobs. We can interact with people in a different way, and it’s rewarding for us to know we can provide employment for other people.”

The Goodfella’s Pizza truck is the first food truck in Wabash, and to the Weaver’s it just made sense.

“We get a lot of business from factories.

Lunch is so busy, and a lot of them only get 20 – 30 minutes for lunch.

The problem is, when you have so many places to deliver at once, it gets kind of hectic for our delivery driver to hit every factory at noon,” said Terri.

“Everything will already be prepared and packaged; they can just come and pick it up. I think we will be able to reach a lot more people this way.”

The truck will deliver to Thermafiber, MPI, Living Essentials and Ford Meter Box each on a different day.

“We want to deliver good service to our customers because

that’s what keeps us in business. We are trying to reach out to them,” said Dean. “We want to make it easier for people who can’t get out and give them

more choices.

The Weaver’s hope to continue building their business and meeting their customer’s needs.

“We add a little

more every year,” said Terri.

“We just want to thank people for their support of our business. That’s what keeps us going.”

Wabash: A View From Charley Creek Inn,” the long and colorful history of what was originally known as The Hotel Indiana, will be the subject of Lou Ann Homan’s talk Tuesday, Nov. 13, at 7 p.m. at the Wabash County Historical Society meeting. The program will be at the Wabash County Historical Museum and free and open to the public.

Homan, a profes-

interviewed people who over the years have been connected to the hotel, and she delved into other sources of the history of the hostelry.

Her story of the hotel is part of the series, “If These Walls Could Tell”, developed by Indiana Landmarks and Storytelling Arts of Indiana with the support of Frank and Katrina Basile.

Homan began gathering information

Creek Inn during visits to Wabash. She talked with former employees and residents of the hotel as she pulled together the history of the building which opened in 1920. She will give her audience a glimpse of bygone years of the building through the eyes of bellhops, bartenders, salesmen, and others who stayed at the hotel.

As a full-time storyteller, Lou Ann

between Angola, IN, and Ocracoke Island off the coast of North Carolina. She is known for her work with children through Arts for Learning, Indiana’s affiliate of Young Audiences. She tells ghost stories to visitors at Pokagon State Park near Angola, and she writes a weekly column for KPC News in northern Indiana.

Max & Ruby in the Nutcracker Suite comes to the Honeywell Center Max & Ruby in the Nutcracker Suite is a musical based on the popular animated cartoon series for children. The performance, sponsored by Ladd Dental Group of Wabash, will arrive at the Honeywell Center on Tues., Dec. 4 at 7 p.m.

Max & Ruby bring to life a joyous tradition this holiday season as they take to the stage with a performance inspired by one of the greatest musical scores ever composed, Tchaikovsky’s Nutcracker Suite. It’s a glistening snowy winter evening and

Max & Ruby have been anxiously waiting for the most spectacular event of the year: seeing The Nutcracker ballet with their Grandma.

But, to their disappointment, a snowstorm keeps them at home.

To lift their spirits, their grandmother allows Max & Ruby to each open one gift from under the tree before bedtime. With their new gifts in tow, a robot for Max and a ballerina doll for Ruby, Grandma tells the story of The Nutcracker. So vivid is her storytelling

that the characters in the ballet come to life right before their very eyes. Max & Ruby marvel at the sight of their enchanting guests, the Sugar Plum Fairy and Nutcracker Prince.

Smith invites community to mother’s breast cancer benefit

Dear editor, Lucille Webb is 63 years of age and was born in Van Lear.

Ky. She has six sisters and three brothers. She has resided in Wabash for 49

years.

She loves spending time with her grandchildren and going to church.

In November of 2009, Lucille was diagnosed with colon cancer resulting in

removal of some of the colon, but thankfully radiation and chemo was not needed. However, extensive testing was acquired leading up to the surgery and

Bob and Jean Hoover celebrate 50 years of marriage Bob and Jean (Boardman) Hoover, formerly of Wabash, are celebrating 50 years of marriage.

They were married in Wabash Nov. 24, 1962.

The couple has two

sons, Shawn and Shane, and two grandchildren, Haley and Hayden.

Bob retired after 45 years in the grocery business. Jean is a retired RN with 40 years of service at

the Wabash County Hospital.

They now reside at 736 Dove Nest Cove, Fort Wayne.

They will celebrate with a family dinner.

after the surgery as well as every 6 -12 months for the colon issue.

In May of 2012 Lucille was diagnosed with breast cancer leading her to make the decision to have a Double Mastectomy procedure. That surgery was a 9-hour surgery and took place at the Dupont Hospital in Fort Wayne.

Two weeks after that surgery she had to be taken back to surgery to create new skin, remove dead skin and close up what was not healing well.

Three weeks after that surgery she was taken back to surgery to close up the right breast which was not staying closed and at that point they discovered that she had developed an infection called Pseudomonas which is a bacteria contracted from numerous places but most likely surgery.

Four weeks from that surgery she had to have the same procedure done in the office (closing the incision that is just not wanting to close).

From that time Lucille has opened again and has remained opened until her next surgery, which is scheduled for Nov. 29.

Lucille has been making about three trips per week to and from Fort Wayne seeing a total of three doctors for this breast cancer – her plastic surgeon, breast cancer doctor and the oncologist.

Lucille decided to have the removal done to prevent further returning of the breast cancer and thanks God the cancer had not spread in the Limp nodes. All tests came back as we were praying that they would and once again radiation and chemo is not needed, but she will however have to take a fiveyear cancer barrier pill to help protect the cancer from returning.

This has been a very long process and very stressful, and she would have not made it without the Lord by her side along with her family and church family.

Lucille attends the

SouthSide Freewill Baptist Church with Pastor Tim Webb where she has attended for quite some years.

She loves her church family and enjoys going to church as often as she possibly can.

The Southside Freewill Baptist Church will be hosting a breast cancer benefit on Saturday Nov. 17 from 4-7 p.m. at the Richvalley Community Building in Richvalley. The proceeds of this benefit will go for the expenses for medical treatments and supplies, transportation and so forth that Mrs. Webb has occurred during this trying time.

This benefit will consist of: pulled pork, hot dogs, sloppy joes, chili soups and other soups as well, baked beans, and soda drinks. We will just be doing freewill donations and Pastor Tim Webb will be hosting a pie and baked goods auction, which will be great for Thanksgiving and also miscellaneous items to be

Paperworks receives plaque for supporting veteran employees

by David Shearer of the Employer Support of the Guard and Reserve and Major Christopher Witter of Grissom Airbase.

Although the company was not selected for the national award, Shearer said it’s an honor to even be nominated. Fifteen companies are selected each year, and their veteran employees are given the chance to take a trip

to Washington D.C. To nominate a company, a veteran employee must fill out an application explaining how their employer supports veterans.

Air Force reserves Clint Baker has been employed at Paperworks just a year and nominated the company.

“This company goes out of their way to support us,” said

Baker, who has been in the military for 13 years.

The award was given during the companies annual Veteran’s Day celebration organized by Bill Lowther.

“This all started because of a kid who just returned from Iraq came to the company. I could tell he was still living on the battlefield, and it just got to me,” said

Lowther.

Lowther has become an advocate for veterans and started a support group.

“The company got involved and saw that it was a good thing.

I’m glad they support the program. We need to take care of the community and the people, because if we don’t then who will.”

Funeral Homes, Inc. from our familyto yours.

North Manchester man sustains serious injuries in ATV accident I n d i a n a Conservation Officers from operational district one are investigating the third serious personal injury ATV accident over the Nov. 10 weekend.

I n d i a n a Conservation Officer John Salb reports that Matthew T. Skeens (27) of North Manchester was riding a 2006 Honda 450R north bound on North Market Street wheelie style, when Skeens lost control causing the ATV to tip over backwards throwing him from the ATV. Skeens was transported to the

Kosciusko County Hospital with injuries to his left wrist and ribs.

Skeens was wearing protective riding pants, jacket, and helmet.

Most municipalities forbid the operation of ATV’s within city limits so it is the operator’s responsibility to contact local authorities to make certain they are operating within the law.

The fact that Skeens was wearing protective gear, especially a helmet, likely lessened the severity of his injuries greatly.

There were also

two personal injury ATV accidents in Fulton County this weekend as the warm weather brought ATV riders out in large numbers.

I n d i a n a Conservation Officers want to remind ATV operators to ride responsibly and discourage operators from riding wheelies and taking unnecessary risks or traveling on terrain they are unfamiliar with.

Always wear protective gear, most importantly a helmet.

Ideally, The Salvation Army would like to man all kettle sites with volunteers.

So far, this year in Wabash County, The Salvation Army has provided 28 nights to homeless people,

provided 14 prescriptions, provided transportation for three families to attend out of town family funerals, provided four nights to families who couldnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t live in their homes due to flooding, provided utility assistance for 23 families.

All of this was made possible due to money raised by bell ringers last year.

The Salvation Army is currently seeking individuals to volunteer as a bell ringer at one of its Red Kettle sites.

It asks volunteers to commit two hours.

For those interest, contact the Youth Service Bureau at 563-7727.

This volunteer opportunity can be done with family, friends, or a group.

Armyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s annual campaign.

Local fourth-grader raises over $2,000 for Shop With a Cop

by Brent Swan After befriending many of the second shift Wabash City Police Officers, Brenton Yarger, a 10year old fourth grader at Sharp Creek Elementary decided he would try to support their annual Shop With a Cop fund drive.

The Shop With a Cop program allows children who would otherwise not receive Christmas presents to “Shop With a Cop” and spend $100 on items they primarily choose.

“My goal at first was to raise $500,” Yarger said. “After I got that much, I said I wanted to raise $1,000, then $1,200, then $2,000.”

When Yarger finally counted up his donations, the total was a staggering $2,006.01 – all raised in a five-week period.

123

Yarger’s efforts alone resulted in 20 kids being sponsored through the Shop With a Cop program.

“I collected cans and stood in front of Wal-Mart,” Yarger said as to how he raised the money.

“We’d send letters to family and friends and ask for cans and donations.”

Yarger said he walked most of the highways and country roads in the immediate area and quickly learned how much work he had gotten himself into.

“We had bags and bags of cans,” Yarger explained. “I’d say we had hundreds of bags. The worst part is you have to crush them. I started to use a sledgehammer after a while.”

In the end, Yarger said the experience has been worthwhile.

“I’d like to thank

Chad (Galligan), Larry (Long), and Bob (Pilgrim),” Yarger said. “Larry and Chad showed me the Shop With a Cop a few years ago, and it’s fun to help out.

“Last year, I had to stand inside WalMart one day because it was so cold my ears were freezing,” Yarger said. “But, I like helping the kids out in need.”

When asked what his goal is in 2012, Yarger said he wants to help one more kid.

“I want to raise at least another 100 dollars,” Yarger said.

“That way we can help at least another kid. I think we can do it.”

Yarger will again be accepting donations at WalMart on Nov. 18 from 11:30 a.m. to 4 p.m., and Nov. 24 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.

28 E. Hill St., Wabash

BRENTON YARGER, a fourth-grader in Mrs. Schenkel’s class at Sharp Creek Elementary raised $2,006.01 in 2011 for the Wabash County Shop With a Cop program. This year, Yarger hopes to raise even more. Yarger will be standing in front of Wal-Mart on Nov. 18, from 11:30 a.m. to 4 p.m., and Nov. 24, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. (photo provided)

Watershed Initiative Partners with Local Farmers to Improve Water Quality

by Shaun Tilghman North Manchester News-Journal News Editor The Middle Eel River Watershed encompasses a 30mile stretch of river that runs from North Manchester to Mexico, Ind., which includes 387 total stream miles and a land area of 169,480 acres. In 2009, a coalition of c o n c e r n e d individuals and agencies formed the Middle Eel River W a t e r s h e d Initiative, with the mission to protect and enhance the water resources of the watershed through education and implementation of soil and water conservation practices.

Funding for the Initiative came from an Indiana Department of Environmental Management (IDEM) Section 319 Grant focused on reducing nonpoint source pollution, which occurs when water that cannot be absorbed by the soil travels along the land as runoff.

A watershed is all of the land that drains water into a particular point along a stream, lake, or river. Because a river consists of drainage water (and groundwater), it is a product of the land above it; if the land is misused or pollutants are spilled, the river will be degraded.

The Middle Eel River Watershed consists of two subwatersheds of the Eel River and includes the towns of North Manchester, Roann, Chili, Denver, and Mexico. Since 89% of land use in the watershed is agricultural, it is vital that the Initiative partner with local farmers to make changes in their farming practices that will improve water quality.

“The Initiative is a collaborative, community-wide effort focused on improving water quality, enhancing recreation, and

p r o m o t i n g conservation of natural resources within the Middle Eel River Watershed,” said Watershed Coordinator Terri Michaelis.

“Our funding began in 2009 with a $1 million grant, which goes

through the end of this year. As part of that grant, $212,000 was designated for conservation practices on ground.

“Pollution doesn’t originate in the stream; it comes from runoff from the surrounding area, or

from the watershed.

You’re going to improve water quality by keeping those pollutants out of the stream. So, you need to work with landowners to make changes on their land to keep the soil and nutrients on the field,

and not in the water.

The Cost-Share Program of the initiative helps farmers pay for those conservation practices.”

The Middle Eel River Watershed Initiative’s CostShare Program began in January 2011, and within three months of announcing the program all of the funds had been allocated. With its initial $212,000, the Initiative has partnered with 21 different landowners on 29 projects and impacted almost 5,000 acres of the watershed. “That’s a

Watershed Initiative... continued from page 35

Amber Tarbox and Ronald Skaggs wed Amber Marie Tarbox and Ronald Lee Skaggs were united in marriage Aug. 2, 2012 at Potter’s House Ministries. Buddy Williams officiated.

The bride was given away by her father, Mark Bennett.

Kayla Smith, the bride’s best friend, was the maid of honor.

Anastasia Bennett and Keira Tarbox, daughters, were the flower girls.

Robert Cox, the groom’s cousin was the best man, and Chandler Tarbox, son, was the ringbearer.

Amber is the daughter of Mark Bennett, Wabash, and Donna Dupree, New Kensington, Pa. She is a 2002 graduate of Oviedo High School. She currently attends Ivy Tech in Wabash and is employed as a customer service representative at Speedway.

Ronald is the son of Donna Easthom, Wabash and the late Joe Armstrong. He is a Wabash High School graduate.

really big success,” Michaelis added.

“Our farmers want to make these changes,” she continued, “but they need a little bit of help. The critical areas [of the watershed] are where we concentrate these practices and where we’re willing to work with the landowners.

We then pay 75% of approved conservation practices within those critical areas of the watershed.”

The Initiative is particularly interested in partnering with farmers on cover crops, no-till, and nutrient management practices, but other best management conservation practices installed within the watershed include: pasture and hay planting, heavy use protection area, grade stabilization structure, grassed waterway, prescribed grazing, fencing, and an animal mortality facility.

Steve Metzger, of South View Farms in

North Manchester, is one proponent for the partnership between farmers and the Initiative. South View Farms incorporates the following best management practices: no-till, cover crops, crop rotation, a manure storage facility, roof runoff, and waste use.

The Metzger family grows 2,200 acres of corn, soybeans, wheat, and hay, and also operates a dairy business on land a few miles northeast of M a n c h e s t e r University. They have been practicing conservation techniques for more than 25 years, and, according to Steve, there are financial benefits that accompany the benefits to the environment.

Another project resulting from the Cost-Share Program, included modifications made to the Plunge Creek ditch, which runs through a North Manchester farm and under SR 14

near SR 13. Sam St. Clair, a U.S. Department of Agriculture District Conservationist, said most ditches are trapezoidal in shape, but modifications to the Plunge Creek ditch involved widening the ditch by 32 feet and leaving grassy “benches” on either side to help trap sediment from runoff.

Dr. Jerry Sweeten, Associate Professor of Biology at M a n c h e s t e r University, said Michaelis has done an outstanding job of bringing diverse groups together to make the Cost-Share Program work.

Sweeten’s role in the operation is to coordinate the water quality monitoring project.

“We really have two motives with water quality monitoring,” Sweeten explained.

“One is to determine whether we can detect a change due to this money that is being spent in the watershed. It’s a simple

question: Can we see an improvement in water quality after working with producers and installing all of these best management practices?

“Our job is to monitor the stream in a scientific way – by monitoring the water chemistry and the stream biology – to see if things are changing. We would like to be able to say, ‘We installed x-number of acres of best management practices this year, and next year we’re going to see some improvement,’ but it doesn’t work that way. It may take multiple years before we really can see any changes that occur, so we have to be patient.”

According to Sweeten, the second motive is to raise young biologists, and that’s where the college students come in.

Each summer, the Initiative hires 4-5 students to do fieldwork, which includes (Continued on page 37)

Community Foundation of Wabash County to Add Strategic Grants In 2013 the C o m m u n i t y Foundation of Wabash County will launch a new grantmaking program called the Education Impact Strategy, which will fund collaborative, evidencedriven initiatives for school readiness and adult literacy. The common goal of the strategy is to increase and sustain prosperity in the county. Data strongly links educational attainment and lifetime earning capability. In Wabash County, fewer than one in three adults have college degrees or high quality certifications needed for middle skill jobs sufficient to support families. To meet the demand for an educated workforce, the Education Impact Strategy will use a collective impact model to drive educational attainment in Wabash County for young children and working adults.

Collective impact is a cross-sector collaborative strategy whose partners share a common agenda and agree to a common method of measuring their outcomes. For maximum effect, members work in tight coordination supported by diligent communication. The Foundation serves a convening role, bringing partners together and coordinating their work.

Begun in 1954, the Foundation has supported citizen’s charitable goals by making grants, investing and safeguarding charitable assets, and linking resources to address community needs.

The first project of the Foundation, a $15,000 award to build a cabin for Scouts, has grown to an annual outlay of $130,000 to meet needs in the county.

The Foundation is a vital source of support for many organizations in the county.

In 2011, the Foundation developed a strategic plan, assessing community needs from research data and aligning donor giving with community needs.

Reports from the Indiana Institute for Working Families, the E c o n o m i c Development Group of Wabash County, Inc., and the Northeast Indiana Regional Partnership all pointed to the urgent need for educational attainment to reduce poverty. Patty Grant, Executive Director of the Foundation, remembers “asking ourselves how we could use our modest funds for the greatest impact in the county.

It was quickly apparent that education, already one of our important interests, was rising to the top of the list of needs.”

The Foundation has

since signed on to the Talent Initiative of the Northeast Indiana Regional Partnership, joining its large partnership for collective impact to increase the number of working adults in the region with college degrees or high quality certificates from 32% to 60% by 2025.

The authors of the collective impact model divide needs into two types, technical and adaptive.

Technical needs are well-defined issues whose solutions are known in advance and can be addressed by one or a few organizations.

The Foundation’s Good Deeds Grants have assisted citizens and organizations in very effective work to feed the hungry, make the arts accessible, and make our communities more livable.

Other needs, such as relief from poverty or remedies for low educational attainment, are called “adaptive problems” and require large-scale social change involving numerous partners and evidencebased decision-making. Adaptive problems rarely respond to the isolated efforts of a single organization.

“As a community foundation, we feel the need to address both kinds of problems,” said Chris Garber of the Foundation Board of

Directors. “We need flexibility to respond to the well-defined needs in the county, and we need more leverage to make an impact on systemic problems that will more likely benefit from cross-sector collaboration.” The new Education Impact Strategy builds on the Foundation’s longtime commitment to education and calls upon others—government, commerce, schools, organizations, and industries—to align their objectives with the goal of bringing prosperity to the community through educational attainment.

One of the best indicators of economic success in any community is education.

John Cortright, author of Talent Divided Metrics, notes that low levels of educational achievement are associated with poor health, job dissatis-

helping with the physical work of testing hundreds of water samples, as well as sampling fish and freshwater mussels.

Michaelis also stated that the Initiative recently received an implementation grant that will begin in January 2013 and will allow them to continue their work in the watershed for three more years. The grant is for $833,000 and $250,000 of that is designated for cost-share conservation practices on farms.

“The heart of our initiative truly is our unique partnerships,” Michaelis concluded. “None of this

would be something that any individual or agency could do on their own – it’s a matter of working together. What we’ve been able to do is to bring county, state, and federal agencies together with academia, businesses, and not-forprofits, with the common goal of improving water quality, and that is very exciting.

“With the diversity of the partners that we work with, I think one group of partners that is often forgotten is the farmers. Our farmers are some of the most important partners that we have – they’re the guys who get the conservation

practices on the ground and actually have a physical impact on that water quality.”

Community Foundation... continued from page 37 faction, unemployment, and criminal activity.

But even incremental educational achievements have an exponential benefit for individuals and communities. According to Cortright, Portland, Oregon, reaps an additional

$1.6 billion annually since it increased by 1 percent the number of high school graduates going to college.

Surprisingly, the benefit of investing in the education of very young children shows more results for prosperity than any other age group. Economists James Heckman of the University of Chicago and Dimitriy Masterov of the University of Michigan show that every dollar spent on preparing children for kindergarten, three dollars

come back to communities in the form of productivity, lower crime rates, and less welfare. Their research, profiled in Slate Magazine online in May of 2007, shows that “by waiting until kindergarten, we throw money at kids when it’s too late.”

Nearly half the preschoolers in Wabash County are unprepared for kindergarten.

Danielle Miller, principal of O. J. Neighbours Elementary School in Wabash, reports that early test scores show “only half the entering kindergarten class can write their names or demonstrate basic math skills like counting. A little over half know basic classroom etiquette, such as lining up or waiting their turn.” A kindergarten student should have a vocabulary of 6000 words and already have exposure to everyday experiences.

A student who has a vocabulary of 300 is considered unprepared. Not only do children who are unprepared struggle to

make up the deficit, classrooms where school preparedness is widely divergent also lag behind.

Last summer, the Foundation funded a collective impact initiative called Begindergarten.

This six-week school readiness program was piloted by the three county school districts and funded by the Foundation. Children who had no preschool experience were identified and invited to join the program.

Twenty-six students enrolled in a combined Wabash C i t y / M e t ro p o l i t a n School District class and a group of eight students enrolled at Manchester. Through a pre- and a post-test administered to the children at the beginning and end of Begindergarten, teachers saw substantial improvement.

Lauri Gunderman taught the WCS/MSDWC group and now follows their progress in the first semester of kindergarten. “They are doing beautifully,” she says. “They hit the ground running and

are keeping up with their peers who come to school with preschool experience.”

The Foundation and the schools are getting ready for another round of Begindergarten in the summer of 2013 and will use Kindergarten Round Up to screen preschoolers for participation in the voluntary program.

Schools are selecting a common method of evaluating children in the program across all school systems, knowing they can learn more about the effectiveness of the program if they use the same measurement.

The program is free to the families of students and will provide six weeks of preschool to students who qualify.

While Begindergarten has a great payoff, post-secondary education is also an important indicator of economic prosperity. A college degree or high quality certification often means the difference between life near the poverty level and life in the middle class. Once the pre(continued on page 41)

READER ADVISORY: The national trade association we belong to has purchased the below classifieds. Determining the value of their service or product is advised by this publication. In order to avoid misunderstandings, some advertisers do not offer “employment” but rather supply the readers with manuals, directories and other materials designed to help their clients establish mail order selling and other businesses at home. Under NO circumstances should you send any money in advance or give the client your checking, license ID, or credit card numbers. Also beware of ads that claim to guarantee loans regardless of credit and note that if a credit repair company does business only over the phone it’s illegal to request any money before delivering its service. All funds are based in US dollars. 800 numbers may or may not reach Canada.
