Poseyville Officials Accept Community Develop-ment Grant at Statehouse: State Sen. Jim Tomes (R-Wadesville) presents a certificate of congratu-lations to Poseyville volunteer firemen and town councilmen upon receiving a Community Develop-ment Block Grant for a new rescue truck. “Posey County is one of 16 in Indiana that does not have a local hospital,” Tomes said. “In fact, the closest

hospital is 50 minutes away. That means the lo-cal firefighters are usually the first responders on scene in the event of an emergency. The $150,000 will help ensure they can continue to assist those in need.” Pictured from left to right are: volunteer firemen Chris Neaveill and Michael Crawford; Tomes; town councilmen Steve Ahrens, Bruce Baker and Ron Fallowfield.

Rapp will be honored in September by the Arts Council of Southwest-ern Indiana as 2011 Arts Advocate of the Year. This award recognizes an individual or organization that has provided service, leadership and substantial support to the arts. Rapp was chosen for her work on behalf of fellow artists, for her dedication to the arts community in Posey County and for her time as a volunteer for activities of the Arts Council of Southwestern In-diana that promote artists and art education.

One of Rapp’s proudest achieve-ments is her part in contributing to art education for children in the

area. Since taking over as the Hoo-sier Salon New Harmony Gallery director, she has worked to devel-op the Hoosier Salon Children’s Art Program.

The major emphasis of the pro-gram is the summer art program that includes a three-day Art Day Camp for children ages 6 through 8. This year 26 area children par-ticipated in the event held at Mur-phy Park Shelter House. The sec-ond part is a two-day Watercolor Workshop for ages 9 through 12, which had 17 children enrolled this summer. Along with Rapp, artists and educators Robert Pote, Carlene VanLaningham and Sherri Rapp develop the curriculum for the classes and work with the children

alongside numerous volunteers. In addition to the summer pro-

grams, the Hoosier Salon also hosts a Children’s Doll Tea Party and has “Make and Take” art proj-ects at Kunstfest and Christmas in New Harmony.

In October 2010, the Arts Coun-cil of Southwestern Indiana, fund-ed by Robert Lee Blaffer Founda-tion Arts in Education Initiative, coordinated a special project to bring literature and art to the nearly 300 second graders in nine Posey County schools. Rapp developed an art project to go along with an award winning children’s book and made an in-school visitation to all of the second grade classrooms. There, she read the book to the

class after which each child deco-rated a bucket and received a copy of the book.

Rapp, along with Sue Wassmer and Jamie Rasure, were instrumen-tal in starting the “Art Mill” at the Feed Mill Restaurant in Poseyville. The exhibition space is housed in the banquet room and gives an-other venue for local artists to get their work before the public. The three women are responsible for planning and hanging the exhibits that change quarterly.

Rapp has had a life-long love of art. As a child she loved to draw and spent much of her free time sketching. As a young girl, she

By Dave PearceAn autopsy was conducted last

week on the body recovered from Fligeltaub Metal Recycling Com-pany on Monday.

The cause and manner of death is pending toxicology. Preliminary autopsy results indicate no signs of foul play. Investigating offi-cers with the Indiana State Police, Posey County Sheriff’s Depart-ment, Mount Vernon Police and Vanderburgh County Coroner’s Office are still investigating the identification of the person found. Officers are hoping to make a posi-tive identification after a dental ex-amination.

“It’s a mummified body that’s been deceased for quite some time.” says Vanderburgh County

Coroner Annie Groves.Groves says the person has been

dead for over two years. Wednes-day Groves and her team found a tattoo on the body that led them to a missing Mount Vernon man who had been missing since 2008.

“The height matched. The age matched. And how long he’s been missing matched.” says Groves.

Officials cannot release the per-son’s identity until DNA tests are done. However, according to infor-mation found in missing persons reports, several things coordinate with a person missing in Mount Vernon since 2008.

Eighteen-year-old Linden Rich-ard Hill went missing from Mount Vernon in November 2008. His whereabouts since then have been

unknown.Chris Mosby, a cousin of Linden

Hill, says Hill’s brother has been contacted for DNA in connection with the body found at Fligeltaub’s scrap metal yard.

Groves says DNA tests take about three to four weeks. The Coroners Office is also seeking the person’s dental records before of-ficially identifying him.

Foul play has been ruled out of the investigation, though the cause of death is still being determined. Groves hopes toxicology reports will reveal the man’s cause of death. She says this is the first time she has needed the assistance of an anthropologist in several years, due to the condition of the body.Linden Richard Hill

By Dave PearceA young Mount Vernon man re-

mains lodged in the Posey County Jail after being charged last week with arson.

According to a police report, 18-year-old Brent Jackson apparently attempted to set fire to the home of his father and stepmother sometime during the night of July 9.

According to a probable cause affa-davit, Posey County Chief Deputy Sher-iff Melvin B u c h a n a n responded to a mischief c o m p l a i n t

around 6 a.m. on July 10, 2011. Buchanan spoke with L.B. Jackson, the owner of the residence at 1801 Holler Road in Mount Vernon.

Jackson stated that he believed his 18-year-old son, Brent, had at-tempted to burn the house down, then drove a Chevy Suburban into the cornfield where it became stuck, and then rode away on a bicycle.

Posey County Deputy Thomas Latham received permission to go to the Jackson’s home and photo-graph the scene. The elder agreed to have his wife, Bonnie Jackson, meet Latham. Latham recorded what appeared to be burn marks on the hallway flooring and carpet. He also noted a red, five-gallon plastic gas can without its nozzle near the front steps.

According to the report, the hall-way carpeting had been taken from the home and placed outside near a tree. Bonnie Jackson told Latham that the smell of gasoline and smoke was too strong to leave the carpeting inside.

Latham took samples of the hall-way flooring and carpet to put in evidence.

The report stated that Bonnie told Latham her step-son Brent had spent Saturday night with them but

By Dave PearceAn arrest in Louisville, Ky., apparently has strong

ties to a theft in Posey County.A man who was the object of a manhunt that began

on Thursday evening after he fled when officers at-tempted to pull over his truck, was caught early Fri-day in southwest Jefferson County in Louisville, Ky.

Kenneth Wayne Kee, 34, of Louisville, was found at a residence in the 16000 block of Abbotts Beach Road off of Dixie Highway about 4:45 a.m. Friday and taken into custody without incident, said Alicia Smiley, a Louisville Metro Police spokeswoman.

According to Posey County Sheriff Greg Oeth, “This is believed to be the individual who was driving the truck which was stolen from north of New Har-mony, Ind., recently. This was the truck that was taken along with a trailer that contained two motorcycles.”

Kentucky authorities recovered the truck last Fri-day, after they chased this individual in the truck. At that time he fled the scene on foot, leaving the truck behind, according to Oeth.

Kee has been charged with first-degree fleeing and evading, and wanton endangerment in the incident. There also was a warrant out for his arrest on a charge of receiving stolen property over $10,000.

Kee was spotted during surveillance of a home in the 8200 block of Virginia Road in Pleasure Ridge

Park about 5:45 p.m. Thursday and then left the resi-dence in a Ford F-350, Smiley said.

Police would not elaborate Friday about why the house on Virginia Road was under surveillance.

When officers tried to pull over the truck, which al-legedly was stolen from Clarksville, Ind., the vehicle went eastbound on West Pages Lane and then headed south on Dixie Highway leading officers in a low-speed pursuit that ended when the truck turned onto Stites Station Road.

Police said shortly after that, Kee and a passenger, identified as Janna Chandler, 30, of Floyds Knobs, Ind., fled on foot into a wooded area, Smiley said.

Metro police air and K-9 units, as well as authori-ties from Bullitt County, state police and the U.S. Army Department of Defense from Fort Knox, were called to assist in the search.

Chandler was taken into custody by the K-9 unit and suffered a K-9 dog bite and abrasions from flee-ing through some brush, police said. She was taken to University Hospital. She has been charged with second-degree fleeing and evading, receiving stolen property over $10,000 and criminal mischief, Smiley said.

Officers searched for Kee into Friday morning until

By Holly Heerdinkit has been said “Change is

inevitable. if you cannot ride the wave of change, it will swallow you up.”

The Posey County news is making an attempt to ride the wave of change by opening yet another branch office, this time in Poseyville, and changing the site in mount vernon. no chang-es will be made to the new har-mony office, which shares the Koester Construction Building at 641 Third street in new har-mony. The phone number there is 812-682-3950.

The new Poseyville office will be manned by staci Cox, a Poseyville resident. The new office is next door to Marga-ret’s resale shop in Poseyville, the home of the Posey County news several years ago when it was located in Poseyville. A formal grand opening is being planned for early next month.

The phone number for the new office is a local phone number that can be reached by dial-ing 812-962-0881. sportswriter steve Joos will also work out of the Poseyville office.

Cox, who attended north ele-mentary school, is a 1989 gradu-ate of north Posey high school. she worked at T’s restaurant during her high school years.

After marrying her “best friend and high school sweetheart,” a new harmony resident ray Cox, in 1990, the couple now lives in Poseyville where they are busy raising four sons. Cody is 17, while Bo is 15, Dalton 10, and Ace is two.

Cox brings a variety of skills to her new position at the Poseyville office as she worked as an assistant activities director and the front office secretary at holiday Care Center for nearly 12 years. in 2001, she began working at Flowers by Chere’

in Poseyville until the shop was closed recently. Cox also drives a school bus for the metropolitan school District of north Posey.

“staci seems to be a perfect match for us,” Posey County news Publisher Dave Pearce said. “she is well-established in the community and is proud of Poseyville. she has an outgoing personality and always seems to wear a smile.”

Cox is family-oriented as she enjoys following her sons with her husband in their activities, particularly in baseball where ray is an umpire.

Cox indicates she is appre-ciative of the opportunity to work near her home and to be of service to the many friends she has made over the years in Poseyville.

“We opened an office in mount vernon a little over a year ago and ever since we have had the paper, we have had the main

office in New Harmony,” Pearce explained. “But we have such a good following in the northern end of the county and we wanted to have a convenient location for people to drop off special an-nouncements and a place where local people can come to take care of local business. it seems only fair that we should have such an office for the people in northern Posey County.”

The Mount Vernon office will be changed to a drop-off point located inside guilty Pleasures in Mount Vernon. The office which was located next door to Floors and walls will close at month’s end. Pam robinson will continue to be the assistant edi-tor. Pam lives in mount vernon with her husband Jim and daugh-ter, Jessica.

“Cindy (smith, Floors and walls owner) has been incredibly nice to us during the past year and we appreciate her allowing us to rent space in her building to help establish a better pres-ence in mount vernon,” Pearce explained. “But our office man-ager there, Tammy Bergstrom, accepted a full time position back in her area of expertise and she would have been difficult to replace.”

in a conversation with sheila schwindel, owner of the guilty Pleasures store in mount ver-non, she agreed that it would be a win-win situation for resi-dents of southern Posey County to be able to drop off important notices or place ads while visit-ing the store formerly known as

Frances wehr Flowers in the 900 block of east Fourth street. The phone number there is 838-2441. A news stand will be placed just outside the main entrance.

“This newspaper sincerely belongs to the people of Posey County,” Pearce explained. “That’s why it is called the Posey County news. we need to make it as accessible as possible to ev-eryone in the county. email and telephone help but it is always nice to have a place where you can walk in and see a friendly face. That seems to be a lost art in a society such as we live.”

Pearce concluded by say-ing that the success of the three Posey County offices depends on how much the people in the three areas are willing to take advan-tage of a local office.

“while many of the large newspapers seem to have their backs against the wall because they are competing against the internet and television news, community newspapers continue to thrive because they are usu-ally the only source of complete news, especially in rural areas,” Pearce said. “we are going to do our best to make sure we contin-ue to do our part of covering lo-cal events. As long as we receive community support, we will be able to continue to bring our readers a weekly newspaper. we trust that support will be there for many years to come. our lon-gevity depends on that support.”

Pearce lives with his wife, Connie, in Poseyville, about six blocks from the new office.

was gone when they woke up. Bonnie said she was awakened when LB yelled about the Suburban being in the fi eld and smoke being in the home. Bonnie also said six people were in the home when she went to bed that night: LB, LB’s daughter Ashley, Ashley’s boyfriend Dalton Yates, LB’s son Kev-in, Brent and Bonnie. Bonnie said there was no fi ghting or arguing before the fi re.

According to the report, Latham also spoke with LB’s son, Kevin Jackson. He re-ported that he and Brent got along well Saturday night, and he was not aware of any problems.

LB Jackson told Latham that Brent is mildly retarded, has explosive behavioral is-sues and is ADHD. LB also stated that there were no is-sues and everyone got along that night. LB said he woke up to the smell of smoke and saw the suburban in the corn fi eld to the south of their residence and that when he walked down the hallway, the burned area was still warm, and the area around it was damp. LB stated his son Brent and a bicycle were gone. LB said one of the ve-hicles had been ransacked, and he used to keep a gun in a lock-box in the vehicle before he pawned the gun

sometime ago.According to the report,

Latham then drove to Brent’s mom’s address at 916 Park St. in Evansville to speak with Brent.

Latham asked Brent if he knew why he was there, and Brent responded because I burned my dad’s house. Latham asked him how he burned it, and he replied he dumped gas and lit it. Latham asked where he got the gas, and Brent said from the back of his dad’s truck. Latham then asked what he did when he got the gas, and Brent stat-ed he went to the hallway by his mom and dad’s room and dumped gas on the fl oor and then lit it. Brent said he then went outside and backed the truck up so far, it got stuck in the cornfi eld. Brent stated he went home on his bicycle.

The report states that Latham then took Brent to the Posey County Sheriff’s Offi ce where he performed an interview. He asked Brent if he could read and write, to which he responded he could not read. Latham read the Miranda Warning to Brent, and Brent indicated he under-stood and signed the waiver. Latham then asked Brent a variety of questions that he answered correctly. Ques-tions included the months Christmas, Thanksgiving,

Halloween and Valentine’s Day were in; the color of Latham’s shirt; and the color of Brent’s shirt.

According to the report, Latham then asked Brent if he meant to harm anyone in his father’s house, and he said no. When asked if he meant to start a fi re, Brent said yes. Latham asked if Brent knew lighting gas would start a fi re, and he said yes. Latham asked if Brent was mad at anyone in the home, and he said no. Latham then asked why Brent started the fi re, and Brent said he didn’t know where his mind was at.

When Latham asked if Brent knew that people could be hurt by lighting the fi re, Brent responded yes, and he didn’t know where his mind was at. Latham asked Brent if he knew what hap-pened when people died, and he said you never see them again. Latham asked if Brent had a driver’s license and if he is allowed to drive, to which Brent stated no.

The report states, Brent said he woke up in the morn-ing when the sun was up and ate a bowl of corn fl akes in the kitchen. Brent stated he went outside and got a red gas can from the back of his dad’s truck and removed the nozzle so it would pour bet-

ter. Brent said he dumped the gas in the hallway near his dad and stepmom’s bed-room.

Brent stated he lit an old sock with his dad’s lighter and threw the sock on the gas in the hallway, and he said the gas caught fi re. Brent said he then walked outside where he got into the sub-urban and backed it into the cornfi eld. Brent said the sub-urban was stuck in the fi eld. Brent stated he took his bicy-cle and rode it to his mom’s house in Evansville. Latham asked if Brent had talked to anyone about the fi re, and he said no.

went to the home of a neighbor who was an artist and learned the skill of oil painting while sitting on the neighbor’s front porch. But since oil paint and canvas were expensive, she had to restrict herself to pencil sketches, charcoal and col-ored chalk during those early years. As a result, Rapp excels at draftsmanship and realism in her art. As she has matured as an artist, she has come to appreciate the art of impression-ism and attempts to capture the essence of her subject by painting the effects of light on an object or scene using both oils and watercolors.

After graduating from college, Rapp taught high school math and science at North Posey until 2003 while experi-menting with oil painting, pastel portraits, tole painting and various creative crafts. Two of her paintings, The Old Van-derburgh Courthouse and The Posey County Courthouse, are part of a permanent collection of the ninety-two county

courthouses of Indiana that will be on display at the offi ces of the Indiana State Bar Association at One Indiana Square in Indianapolis.

After being accepted to numerous juried exhibits of the In-diana Watercolor Society, Rapp was inducted as a Signature Member in 2010. Also in 2010 she received 1st Place in the District I Fine Arts Division and in 2011 was the winner of 2nd place at the State Convention of Kappa Kappa Kappa, Inc for one of her watercolor paintings.

She and her husband, Ernie, reside in New Harmony, but spend winters at their Florida home in Fort Myers. They are the parents of three children: Dr. Kyle Rapp of Mount Ver-non, Ryan Rapp of New Harmony and Stacey Gamblin of Evansville. They appreciate the blessing that their children and seven grandchildren live nearby and enjoy their time with all of them.

He was caught at the Abbotts Beach residence near the Jef-ferson-Hardin county line.

The home had been dam-aged by recent fl ooding and was vacant, Smiley said. An offi cer noticed the door was open and the lights were on and decided to search the residence, Smiley said.

Kee was one of 12 people indicted by a federal grand jury in March 2004 on con-spiracy to distribute more than 50 kilograms of mari-juana, according to U.S. Dis-

trict Court records in New Albany.

The indictment alleged that Kee was involved in a drug ring which had mari-juana shipped from the Hells Angels Motorcycle Club in British Columbia, Canada, through Indianapolis and then to distributors in Floyds Knobs, according to the in-dictment.

Kee pleaded guilty and was sentenced to 49 months in jail, according to court re-cords.

The American Red Cross reminds all eligible blood donors to ttake the

time and give blood this summer because the need for blood never takes a

summer vacation and must constantly be replenished.

While all blood types are needed to maintain a suffi cient blood supply for patients, right now there is a special need for types O negative, B negative and A negative blood donors. Rh negative blood types are always in high demand be-cause they potentially can be transfused to patients with Rh positive or Rh negative blood types.

A blood drive will be held on July 22, 2011 from 3- 7 p.m. at the Marrs Township Volunteer Fire Department, located at 3030 S. St. Philips Road in Mount Vernon.

To show appreciation to those who help save lives, all presenting donors at Red Cross blood drives and blood donation cen-ters through September 7, 2011 will be entered in the Good to Give. Good to Go. promotion. One lucky per-son (21 and older) in the Mid-American Blood Ser-vices Division will have the chance to win a trip for four to Orlando, Florida.

Simply call 1-800-RED CROSS (1-800-733-2767) or visit redcrossblood.org to make an appointment or for more information.

A blood donor card or driver’s license, or two other forms of identifi ca-tion are required at check-in. Individuals who are 17 years of age (16 with pa-rental permission in some states), weigh at least 110 pounds and are generally in good health may be eli-gible to donate blood. High school students and other donors 18 years of age and younger also have to meet certain height and weight requirements.

Each year the Mount Ver-non River Days Festival has as its purpose to bring atten-tion to the special privilege residents, neighbors and friends share in enjoying and being witness to the wonders of living on the banks of the Ohio River.

Of course, there are all kinds of “wonders” that this opportunity affords; and this year, with the river’s third highest crest, 51.8 feet, folks were reminded of the awe-some power of the Ohio.

With memories of the 2011 Flood fresh on minds of area residents, the 75th anni-

versary of the “Big Flood” in 1937, when the crest reached 59.2 feet, will be commemo-rated at this year’s Mount Vernon River Days event set for September 9, 10 and 11.

In 1937, the river inun-dated a lot of mid-America, including Mount Vernon. The water lapped at the steps of the Eagles’ building on Water Street and surrounded the water treatment plant. Up and down the Ohio, from Johnstown to New Orleans, the “Beautiful Ohio” showed its power and might.

Becky Higgins, Vice Chair of the River Days Commit-

tee, is collecting 1937 Flood photographs and other mem-orabilia to be featured in an exhibit that will take place at the 2011 festival.

Anyone who has pictures or collectible items from the 1937 fl ood that they are will-ing to share in his exhibit is asked to contact Higgins at 204-7388 or see her at Print-crafters, 304 W. Fourth Street in Mount Vernon.

Larry Williams is Chair-man of this year’s River Days, with Kay Kilgore as Chairman of Events and En-tertainment and Nancy Hoe-hn in charge of Food Booths.

The 2011 Keck Gon-nerman summer show is coming up August 5th, 6th and 7th 2011 at the Posey County Fair Grounds. The featured tractor this year is Oliver. Tractors, equipment, sawing and threshing dem-onstrations, tractor pulls, ATV pulls, garden tractor pulls, quilts, food, fl ea mar-kets, car show and other events will be happening for you to see. We would like to invite everyone to come out and enjoy a weekend with us. We know you will have a great time looking at the older tractors and machin-ery along with the sawing and threshing.

But did you know the Keck Gonnerman club does other events during the year? We have a tractor ride in the spring, this year we stopped at the Harmony Health Care Center for our rest stop. The Health Care Center furnish drinks and an area for us to park. The residents had the opportunity to come and view the tractors. We started at the Harmony State Park and ended back at the park. The high water caused a change in the route, but it was a great time. A big thank you to the State Park for let-ting us unload and return with a spin through the park, but again water changed our

route, and thank you to the Health Care Center for the rest stop.

We participate in the Posey County Fair with sawing and threshing dem-onstrations, tractor and truck pulling. We have a plowing day in the fall for anyone to bring a tractor and plow or come and watch these older tractors do their thing. We come out in December (cold) for the Christmas Parade in New Harmony. We take tractors to the State Park, bring some to the New Harmony Days Celebration, Mt. Vernon River Days, Poseyville Parade and other shows and events through-out the year.

ladies to be positive role models for their peers by focusing on core moral val-ues including being them-selves, saying no to drugs and alcohol, and

remaining absti-nent. The guest speakers and the breakout sessions during competition week-end focused on these same core values. Pageant week-end offered several optional

competitions in which the girls could compete, includ-ing talent, spokesmodel, photogenic, top model, ca-sual wear, academic and volunteer service, just to name a few.

Heather enjoys being a ju-nior volunteer at Deaconess Hospital and babysitting. Her activities include play-ing basketball for MVHS, hiking in the woods and camping. She also enjoys hanging out with friends and family and attending various sports events.

Heather is the daughter of Blair and Beverly Brem-er, and the sister of Evan Bremer.

Mayor John Tucker and Street Commissioner Roy Maynard traveled to Indianapo-lis on July 13 to meet with Lt. Governor Becky Skillman and State Senator Jim Tomes for an Award Ceremony. Mount Vernon was one of 22 communities that received a Community Focus Fund Grant. Mount Vernon was awarded $524,287 for a Storm Wa-ter Grant to help with fl ooding on the West side of Mount Vernon around West School, Wolfl in Street and Venice Avenue.

In conjunction with Mount Vernon River Days, the Alexandrian Public Library will be holding an exhibition of photographs celebrating of Historic Mount Vernon. The exhibit which features images taken before 1940, will be Friday, September 9, from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Saturday, September 10, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. & Sunday, September 11, from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. The exhibit area will be in the Alexandrian Public Library meeting rooms.

As the saying goes, ‘A picture is worth a thousand words’, but sometimes a photo-graph remains the soul silent testament to a moment otherwise lost to history. We point our cameras, shoot, and move on so quickly we hardly give thought to how we just may have frozen that moment for posterity.

Genealogists love discovering photo-graphic images of long distant relatives hid-den among a hodgepodge of photographs at a yard sale or even in an antique store. Historians jump with anticipation at a pros-pect of sighting photographs containing a historical building or landmark as it was in a century past.

Historically, older images were printed from brittle fi lm or glass plate negatives, and those one-of-a-kind snapshots are fad-ing. Even more disheartening are those

mystery images, as yet undeveloped, resid-ing inside old cameras that turn up at yard sales. In either instance they are all poten-tially lost to history.

In an effort to preserve the richness of our past heritage, the Alexandrian Public Library has determined to gather, document and preserve as many images as possible of historical Mount Vernon as it was prior to 1940.

In addition to photographs, there are post-cards and rare stereopticon cards of vintage Mount Vernon architecture and businesses out there that are not included in the library collection. Some are colorized while others are simple black and white images. If you have any, please bring them to the library so they can be scanned and printed for inclu-sion in the exhibit.

Those attending the exhibit will be pro-vided an opportunity to record their own memories of the images. Those comments, observations and memories will then be digitized along with the relevant images for future generations.

Photographs for submission may be e-mailed or dropped off at the library, along with a name and contact number. For more information, contact Stan Campbell at the library at 838-3286.

Ellen Van Way and her sisters got to wear their capes to school on March 18, 1925, because it was a warm early spring day. Ellen’s mother, Martha (Crawford) Van Way had a package to mail at the post

offi ce before her children came home from school on the bus. She went across the street and over the railroad tracks to Mr. Fisher’s gro-cery store, where she chat-ted with Mr. Fisher and his 18-year-old nephew, Win-

ford Fisher. That’s where she was on that fateful af-ternoon when "the" tornado hit. Things would never be the same again for her or any of the residents in Grif-fi n, Ind.

Ellen Van Way (Sears)

Nottingham was 11 years old at the time; she is now 98 years old, with a clear memory of that day more than 86 years ago. Ellen will be "telling the rest of

the story" when she shares her memories with members and friends of the Posey County Historical Society’s 10 a.m. meeting on Satur-day, July 23, at Alexandrian

Public Library.The public is invited to

the meeting to hear Mrs. Nottingham’s story and to meet her and some of her family.

I am a gardener. I hope you noticed that I did not say “Master Gardener.” I was privileged to get to know my grandparents and learned a lot from them. They were hard working people who, although they did not have much, were willing to work hard and provide well for their families. Both of my grandfathers put out a garden that was spectacular. I remember every time we would visit (they lived in Arkansas and we lived in the Chicago area) in the sum-mer my grandfather would always send home a couple hundred pounds of the best tasting potatoes you have ever eaten! His tomatoes were something to brag about as well.

I try to work in my garden at least a little bit each day. Every time I work those weeds over I think of my grandparents. When the sweat drips into my eyes I think of my grandfathers. But, I also think of something that I read in the Bible.

In the book of Genesis we read the account of creation. God, our Creator set everything in perfect order but sin put a bit of an obstacle in the way. Sin caused a separation between man, God’s creation and God, the Creator.

In Genesis 3:17 (NKJV) we discover the result of man’s sin, the curse for disregarding God’s instruction.

17 Then to Adam He said, “Because you have heeded the voice of your wife, and have eaten from the tree of which I commanded you, saying, ‘You shall not eat of it’:

“Cursed is the ground for your sake; In toil you shall eat of it All the days of your life.Because this verse is in the middle of God’s

speaking to all those involved, Eve, Adam and Satan) it is good to understand that the reason for the man’s curse does not have anything to do with Adam’s listening to and being misled by Eve. Read all of Genesis 2-3 to fully un-derstand.

God said to man, “Cursed is the ground for your sake; In toil you shall eat of it all the days of your life.” Work! Sweat!

As I said, when I work in my garden I can’t help but think of my grandfathers and all the hard work they put into their garden. The pro-duce on the table brings such pleasure but the process also creates calluses and those thorny weeds are truly pests which I could do with-out, but because man turned to disobey God there is no escaping the punishment.

A little hard work pays off. In the New Tes-tament we fi nd that some had become quite lazy and the Apostle Paul addressed the church in II Thessalonians 3:10 (KJV),

For even when we were with you, this we commanded you, that if any would not work, neither should he eat.

Several years ago I heard someone speaking at a conference who described the difference between the produce you get fresh out of the garden compared to the “stuff” you get out of

season. He called the out of season produce “stuff made by Dow Chemical” and you know what, I think I would have to agree that it is a lot like that.

This time of the year we see the farmers in their fi elds, those with green thumbs working in their fl ower gardens and happy gardeners all working hard to provide for all of us some of the best food imaginable. Recently one of the members of my congregations came up to me following the service and said that he felt that as a farmer he considered himself feeding a lot of people with the crops he harvested.

So, while you sit down to one of those fresh tomatoes, cucumbers or an ear of sweet corn I hope you will understand the work required to get that good stuff to your plate.

I know that I will never forget watching my grandparents and the love that went into the sweat on their brow which provided some of the best eatin’ I have ever experienced bar none.

School Board took the nec-essary steps to adopt a fi -nal budget at the Thursday, July 14, meeting. The four board members present ap-proved the advertisement of the budget on August 9 and 16 before setting the pub-lic hearing date at a special board meeting on Thursday, August 25, at 6 p.m. in the school media center. It was emphasized that the August 25 public hearing is the only time open for public com-ment on the budget.

The board agreed also to meet in a work session fol-lowing the public hearing at 7 p.m. and set the budget adoption date as Thursday,

September 8, during the reg-ular monthly board meeting.

In other business:•The board approved the

following personnel in one vote: hiring Jennifer Toopes as head high school girls’ basketball coach, Shawn Worman as high school girls’ junior varsity coach, Ashley Sallee-Robinson as assistant volleyball coach, Tyler Howe as volunteer volleyball coach, Marty Crispino and Zach Wein-zapfel as co-soccer coaches and Dawn Wickstrom as athletic department secretary and extracurricular accounts treasurer. It was noted that Toopes had resigned earlier in the summer, thinking she would be relocating, but the

move didn’t transpire.•The board approved

serving an alternate meal of cheese sandwiches to stu-dents who have delinquent lunch accounts. It was em-phasized that this ruling af-fects no student on free or reduced lunch, only students whose parents fall behind in paying their bill. It was noted that the school lost over $800 last year in delinquent lunch accounts, and school attor-ney David Givens is sending notices to four of the worst offenders.

•The board approved Ad-Tec as the E-Rate service provider at $490 to fi nish 2010 fi ling, at $490 to fi nish 2011 fi ling and at $1,290 for 2012 fi ling.

•The board approved He-lix Technologies for provid-ing server, server backup system and installation at a cost of $6,997.13.

•The board approved the music department’s maga-zine fundraising sales. The board will take action on the volleyball car wash, tourna-ment and cookie dough sales at its next meeting since the application did not reach the board by the deadline of the Wednesday a week before the board meeting.

•The board accepted and fi led extracurricular account transactions, added an ac-count for the Class of 2016 and discontinued accounts for the Class of 2010, Class of 2011, academic awards

banquet, after prom, special education and youth soccer. It was noted that the after prom account would now become part of the junior class account.

•The board approved the Head Start rental agreement.

•Included in reports were the 2011 ISTEP results. Prin-cipal Douglas Mills advised the board that when the Indi-ana Department of Education corrected its data, New Har-mony School would register 85.2 percent pass in math, up 5.7 percent over the previous year, and 81 percent pass in language arts, up two-tenths percent over the previous year. The recently released 2011 ISTEP data marks re-

sults for students in grades 3 through 8.

•The board recognized the following student athletes for outstanding achievement: Stephen Murray and Kris Scarafi a for making the 2011 Indiana High School Base-ball Coaches Association Academic All-State Team and Andrew McDaniel for receiving Honorable Men-tion for the Indiana High School Baseball Coaches Association All-State Team.

The New Harmony School Board will meet again in regular session on the sec-ond Thursday in August—August 11, 2011—at 6 p.m. in the school media center.

To all of Mount Vernon,As many close to us know,

I was accepted to Southeast-ern University in Lakeland Florida. My original intent was to stay in Mount Vernon and take my classes online. That decision was based on many things, but mostly on my job here and the security the income provided. Recent-ly however, that security was lost and new opportunities presented themselves. After considering all of our sce-

narios and options we had decided to move to Florida where I would attend South-eastern as a full time student. This was in large part because I can earn the same as what I am now, simply by attend-ing school thanks to my GI Bill. We were all systems go until two days ago the impact of "farewell" truly hit home. We have reconsidered and I will now attempt to get into University of Evansville and major in Biblical Studies. I

am making a one year com-mitment and we will then re-evaluate our situation and make any further decisions necessary.

This does, however, pres-ent one line of business I must take care of. I must, unfortu-nately, withdraw my name from the upcoming election. Due to the time constraints of family, full time work and full time school I will not have the time to devote to this campaign as I had previously

intended. I will be fi ling the appropriate paperwork very soon, as the deadline is rapid-ly approaching. I do this with a heavy heart, I have such a strong desire to make a dif-ference here. Mount Vernon is a wonderful small town that I know can be great. I pray that Mount Vernon can place itself into the hands of some wonderful leaders that can take it to the heights it is capable of. There are changes that need made, but there are plans already committed to that need completed. We have many valuable resources that if utilized properly could make this town special.

Land is something we have an abundance of, we need to fi gure out where would be ap-propriate for new businesses and start soliciting them. We need to stop waiting for busi-ness owners to fi nd us and we need to seek them!

We have many historic homes that would be great for providing a service based business, internet based busi-nesses. The Cox Group has the building on the corner of Mulberry and Fourth that would be a model of what that could be. Again, seek them and plead our case and make coming to Mount Ver-non appealing!

We have several businesses that also sit vacant. We need to again make it desirable for these small businesses to invest their time and money into coming here.

We have heavy semi traffi c yet no truck stop, we need to start pursuing entrepreneurs or franchises and make all efforts to get one here. This may not be something that would be within the city lim-its, but at least on one end of the bypass.

We have a downtown

that is being allowed to look abandoned and dilapidated. We need to take all avail-able and appropriate action to clean up these buildings. Unfortunately that may mean demolition in some instances. This however, needs done after something is in place to ensure the preservation of our historic feel downtown. May-be something in a building code to limit the architectural feel of new buildings. It is go-ing to be very hard to fi nd an investor willing to dump cash into a building that is nearing collapse. Even to walk down Main Street it smells old and stagnant, there is very little life there right now.

We need a fi re station and police department desperately. I would love to see a building like Dausman's old dealership be transformed into an new city complex. The lot would only need a garage built on to house the fi re trucks, aside from that would be merely an interior overhaul. It is cen-trally located, built with cost effective building materials and provides easy access to a main street. I wonder if there would be a creative way to accomplish this that would benefi t all parties involved without being a huge fi nan-cial burden on the city but still a fi nancial benefi t for the

owner of the property?Our ordinances need some

time devoted to them as well. We need to sift through them and fi nd the obsolete ordi-nances and either remove or update them. We need to fi nd the ordinances that are not being enforced and either enforce, change or remove them. Lastly as a whole, when this is complete, we need to enforce all of our ordinances. We cannot be expected as a citizen to follow one ordi-nance and watch as the city ignores another.

Most importantly we need, as a body of elected represen-tatives, to stop our agendas and take the time to listen to the citizens of Mount Vernon. We need to protect the safety and comfort of all our citi-zens, regardless of anything!

I know this sounds a lot like campaigning, but I want-ed to share my thoughts and dreams for Mount Vernon in hopes that some of them be carried out by those currently or soon to be in offi ce. I did not want to withdraw keeping any of these ideas with me to die on the shelf while I wait until the time is right for my return to the ballot. May God bless this wonderful town and may God bless all of you go-ing forward.

Brandyn S. Mohr

In his book, The Big Short, Inside the Doomsday Machine, Michael Lewis ex-poses the intentional creation of the market in worthless credit default swaps that our federal government bailed out with over one trillion dollars of our money. The Big Short was published in 2010, but it covers the roots of the hundreds of billions of knowingly bad investments made by AIG, Bear Stearns, Citigroup, Lehman Brothers, and other Wall Street traders because they assumed they were “too big to fail.”

With virtually no Congres-sional or Executive Branch oversight or even hearings, the people who intentionally brought about the near col-lapse of America’s economy were paid full dollar on what should have been their ticket to bankruptcy.

Gentle Reader, you may re-call I wrote a series of Gavel Gamut articles in 2008-2009 arguing against the bailouts and suggesting alternative solutions. My analysis was the bailouts would not solve our economic crisis and it was simply wrong for the taxpayers to insure our own fi nancial demise by borrow-

ing trillions to give to fat cats.

Of course, as we know, our country is now on the verge of defaulting on our obliga-tions due to having reached our debt ceiling. And, yes, you and I assume the federal government will reach a slea-zy, bottled-water fi lled room, midnight deal but what will not happen is an actual solu-tion. In my opinion, the ba-sic philosophical approach to our fi nancial woes is what needs changing.

Instead of trying to “bor-row ourselves out of debt” by fi ghting over raising the Debt Ceiling, perhaps we should invest in ourselves. Consumer spending provides about seventy percent (70%) of our Gross National Prod-uct. Americans are wary of spending because we have little confi dence our federal government will manage our tax monies wisely.

Americans own trillions of dollars of IRA’s, retire-ment funds, 401 K’s and 457 plans. I suggest our gov-ernments, federal and each state, allow us to access a reasonable amount and/or percentage of our own funds without penalty, taxes or in-terest for a defi ned period of less than one year.

A simple addition to the state and federal tax returns could allow for the account-ing. Then, if the monies were spent in the economy, products would be sold, sales taxes would be paid, employees would be paid wages upon which income taxes would be paid and companies would pay corpo-rate taxes.

This was the approach I suggested three years ago as an alternative to the bail-outs. It puts the decisions in the hands of the citizens and rewards the taxpayers, not the fat cats and political contributors.

I am aware such an ap-proach would signifi cantly impact Wall Street. Howev-er, that is preferable to Wall Street’s signifi cantly nega-tive impact upon us.

Gavel Gamut’s “The Bailouts Revisited”

TRUTH...STRANGERTHANFICTIONBY DAVEPEARCE

Keep in open mind for the future of Mount Vernon

Sometimes I think I am just getting old and don’t know how things are done in today’s society. But at times, I long to go back to the way things were done in the past. As we in the newspaper business continue to try and provide good service to our custom-ers, it sometimes seems like we may be the only ones left with that goal in mind.

I have learned fi rst-hand how to deal with never having a real person answer the tele-phone in many businesses anymore. I have had to learn to have patience while I must listen to what seems to be 10 minutes of “press one for this or press two for that,” or press one for English or two for Spanish. But sometimes I think companies have simply grown too big to care about customer ser-vice at all any more. There are some services that have somewhat of a monopoly on the services they provide people in areas such as “po-dunk Posey County.” The attitudes of these companies is evident by the way they treat their customers.

I have had the “opportunity” (term used extremely loosely) over the past few weeks to have to have electrical service, sewer and water services, Internet services, and cellular services connected as we have pre-pared to open our newest offi ce, this one in Poseyville. No, this will not change the fact

that we will continue to have locations in Mount Vernon and in New Harmony. That is

called “community service.”My fi rst indication that

perhaps customer service was a thing of the past was when I began to try and fi nd a way to have the electric-ity turned on in our building across the street from the Posey County Co-op and

next door to Margaret’s Resale in Poseyville. While we had no problems getting things changed over when we moved to Poseyville a couple years ago, this time things turned out to be a little disconcerting.

I got with my landlord who indicated the address Duke Energy had for us in Poseyville. After several minutes of “press-ing one for this and two for that or three for something else,” I fi nally wound up speaking with a live person. As I stood at the electric meter in front of my building looking at the blue tag with the Duke Energy insignia on it, the woman on the other end of the phone informed me that my address did not exist and that I couldn’t possibly be looking at one of their meters.

While we obviously weren’t on the same page, I attempted to keep in mind that per-haps the building owner had provided me with the wrong address or that I could even have written it down wrong. I was willing to

give it a second try.After retracing all my steps and fi nding

out that I indeed had the correct address, I again called the energy company and again listened to the ten minutes of “press one for this, two for that, and three for something else.” Again, I fi nally got a live person on the other end, and again, I was told that my address did not exist.

Not realizing just who I was talking to, I proceeded to explain to her where our build-ing was located. This was intended to be a friendly gesture to help her discover where her company might need to send some-one to turn on the power so that we could have electricity and they could have a new customer and more money coming in each month. The clerk promptly informed me that she was in Milwaukee, Wisc., and all my landmarks meant absolutely nothing to her. She continued to insist that we did not have their services in our new location. Thanks to some hard work by our landlord, we were fi nally able to get the electricity turned on in the building, but even then, it was several days coming.

Next there was the cable company. This may sound like something from “A Night-mare on Elm Street” but this actually hap-pened. I fi rst attempted to get the local In-ternet and telephone service provider only to fi nd out that the front door to the building is locked with nothing but a 1-800 number on the door and no way to call into the local offi ce.

So, I decided to go another route. I would go with the company where I already had been an established customer for many years. I had been told that I could add a sec-ond account to my existing account and I fi gured that should simplify things dramati-cally. Wrong!

I called in and soon found out that their “press one for this and two for that and three for something else went all the way up to seven and eight.” It seemed like I was on the line for ten minutes before they placed me on hold and began to play a recording in my ear telling me how important my call was to them and that it would be answered in the order it was received. They gave me an “approximate hold time,” but after I had exceeded that time by 15 minutes, I had to go to work to make money to pay for the ser-vices they were already providing me.

The next morning I had about a 45-min-ute drive and thought I could probably get through in that length of time. After another fun game of “dialing through the alphabet,” I did fi nally get a real person. This time I got “Sally.” She had a good personality and I fi g-ured Sally was going to take care of me. She sounded nice enough and promised to take

care of me after I expressed a little of the epi-sode I had been through the day before.

And while I believe Sally had good inten-tions, she gave me a window of time and I then paid one of our employees to sit there through the time period and wait for some-one to show up. Of course, no one did. Then during my drive home that evening between 7:30 and 8, someone called and told me they would have someone out in about 25 or 30 minutes. In jubilation, I set sail for the loca-tion. My wife and I sat there for well over an hour only to fi nd that the sub-contractor called out could not fi nd the building (or probably even the town) and that I would be fi rst on the schedule the next day. Believe it or not, I was beginning to have my doubts.

Sure enough, no technician and not so much as even a telephone call awaited me the following morning. I decided to let that day pass and try back on another day.

I called back the following morning and again got to play “musical touchtones.” Funny that Sally hadn’t given me her direct line. No one would. Each person to whom I spoke would give me only the main number where each time I would get the opportunity to press all the buttons again. To make a lon-ger story short, a couple days later two very nice young men agreed to stay at the offi ce until almost 10:30 p.m. to get Internet ser-vice into the building. I could have hugged them but decided to buy them drinks and a pizza instead.

But when it came to having the water and sewer connected here in town, my hat goes off to the people who run the local offi ce. I called and after just a ring or two, I was greeted by a friendly voice on the other end who went out of their way to try and help me get the services I needed at the address. If only everything else had been so simple.

So as we continue an attempt to provide local and good customer service for our ad-vertisers and our subscribers, I promise you will never have to go through such antics to talk to a real person or to get an issue re-solved. If you do, please take the time to call me personally. I can guarantee it won’t hap-pen again. I understand that we are not the only game in town and we have to earn both your respect and your business. All local companies do. So the next time you consider driving to the big city or making that big pur-chase over the Internet, don’t forget there are friendly people right here in Posey County who are willing to go out of their way to help you and to be there when you need them.

From the experiences I have endured over the past few weeks, this customer service is worth much more than the dollar or two I might save by getting my items from some-where else!

Customer service, foreign concept but worth the extra dollars

Notes: 1The state allows us to monitor for some contaminants less than once per year because the concentrations of these contaminants do not change frequently. Some of our data, though accurate, is more than one year old. 2 Nitrate in drinking water at levels above 10 ppm is a health risk for infants of less than six month of age. High nitrate levels in drinking water can cause blue baby syndrome. Nitrate levels may rise quickly for short periods of time because of rainfall or agricul-tural activity. If you are caring for an infant you should ask advice from your health care provider.

NOTE: The Synthetic Organic Compounds (SOC) that were tested were below detectable limit.

WATER QUALITY DATA TABLE

The table below lists all of the drinking water contaminants that we detected during the calendar year of this report. The presence of contaminants in the water does not necessarily indicate that the water poses a health risk. Unless otherwise noted, the data pre-sented in this table is from testing done in the calendar year of the report. The EPA or the State requires us to monitor for certain contaminants less than once per year because the concentrations of these contaminants do not change frequently.

The Poseyville Municipal Utilities and the Town of Poseyville have released their annual water quality report. This report is designed to inform you about the quality water and ser-vices delivered to you every day. Their con-stant goal is to provide you with a safe and dependable supply of drinking water. Cus-tomers need to understand the efforts made to continually improve the water treatment process and protect our water resources. The Poseyville Water Department is committed to ensuring the quality of your water.

In 2010 the Poseyville Water Department distributed 43,000,000 gallons of water to their customers. Our water source is ground-water pumped from a natural underground aquifer. The town’s two wells are located ap-proximately 2 miles northwest of Poseyville’s corporate limits.

Your water is treated by using fi ltration to remove or reduce harmful contaminants that may come from the source water.

Protection of Poseyville’s source water starts with selection of an aquifer of treatable quality, followed by proper design and place-

ment of wells. Once in place, quality of water is monitored to determine if any contaminates are present. Staff physically inspects well sites daily to insure that no natural or man-made damage is present. Currently a Well-head Protection Plan is underway to evaluate and make recommendations to correct any source(s) that may contaminate wells.

In their continuing efforts to maintain safe and dependable water supply it may be nec-essary to make improvements in the water system. The costs of these improvements may be refl ected in the rate structure. Rate adjustments may be necessary in order to ad-dress these improvements.

For more information about your drinking water and for opportunities to get involved, please contact Ken Gorbett by calling 812-874-2212 or by writing this address: P O Box 194, Poseyville, IN 47633. Also you are welcome and encouraged to attend public meetings on the second Wednesday of each month at 4:30 p.m. (60 N. Church). Find out more on the Internet at http://www.ccr-report.com.

Long-time New Harmony resident Janet Lorence has been nominated as Good Neighbor of the Week for her unselfish contributions to the arts and spirituality in New Harmony.

“She is one of the most giving people to tirelessly promote New Harmony with her time and talents,” com-ments her neighbor Hugh Thompson. “She is always doing things behind the scenes without asking for any credit or for anything in return.”

Lorence moved to New Harmony in 1978, one year after her first visit to provide a workshop for calligraphers around the state. With the exception of a six year in-terlude, she has resided in New Harmony ever since. A master calligrapher, she has offered classes, continu-ing education programs and workshops in New Harmony,

at the Uni-versity of Evansville,

the University of Southern Indiana and other places in the state.

In addition to a life-long study and practice of cal-ligraphy, Lorence served a two-year apprenticeship in papermaking at Twinrock-er Handmade Paper Mill, Brookston, Ind., and just last year offered her second papermaking workshop in New Harmony. While teach-ing for several years at New Harmony School, she intro-duced students there to pa-permaking and calligraphy.

Lorence serves as vol-unteer coordinator of the Cathedral Labyrinth and Sacred Garden, hosting the monthly summer candlelight walks, solstice celebrations and recitation of the univer-sal peace prayers in addition to walks for visiting groups, including the students who participate in Heritage Arti-sans Week. She helped host the International Labyrinth Conference held in New Harmony last fall. The laby-

rinth speaks to her body and soul.

“It is a wonderful medi-tative tool and has an in-teresting history,” she says. “Labyrinths started with the Greeks, as far as we know, and are found in different cultures, including Native American. We are grateful to Mrs. Owen for this gift. She saw it as a tool to resolve conflicts, especially before they escalate into violence. It could be a personal conflict or one going on in town or in the world. It’s just a good place to zero in on what’s re-ally important in life. A place to count our blessings and heal our wounds. A place that combines thought and movement. A tool that in-spires letting go, acceptance, innovation and change. Walking the twists and turns serve as a metaphor for life. I urge people to give it a try if they haven’t, walking alone and with others.”

Featured at the Women’s Institute and Gallery in

New Harmony on several occasions, Lorence enjoys photography, pencil and watercolor drawing and printmaking in addition to calligraphy and papermak-ing. She stays current with graphic design, her under-graduate major at Oregon’s Marylhurst College. Further graduate work combined pa-permaking and printmaking in Indiana. She also brings together a bi-monthly draw-ing group in New Harmony.

Her only child, son Jona-than, is an international teacher. He and his Rus-sian-born wife Natalie are blessed with a 5-year-old daughter, Stella. Lorence has enjoyed many visits with her son and his family at their international loca-tions, most recently in Thai-land this past January.

#144806-gray

By Pam RobinsonMount Vernon High School, or MVHS,

cheerleader Megan McDonald downplays her role in saving the life of a 3-year-old boy at Burdette Park pool in Evansville on Sunday, July 3. She noticed the boy face down in the baby pool as she headed for her lifeguard chair at the beginning of her shift. She immediately blew her whistle, pulled the unconscious toddler from the water and responded with the first chest compressions until the park emergency medical technicians took over.

“I couldn’t have saved the child by my-self,” she insists. “It was a team. Every-one came together and helped. Burdette has a very good staff. Everything went as planned [in training], and we acted as a team and pulled together and all helped to save a child’s life.”

McDonald was relieved to receive a call from the boy’s family on Monday, July 4, to offer their thanks and to tell her the boy was back to his old self.

“They said he was bouncing off the walls and acting like nothing ever happened,” she relates.

A St. Philip native and resident, McDon-ald has served as a lifeguard at Burdette Park for three summers now. Until the July 3 incident, she had helped overexerted swimmers and those wandering into too deep water, but she’d never needed to pull someone unconscious out of the water.

She learned rescue response at Evans-ville’s YMCA before she started work and attained, and keeps current, certifications in first aid, CPR and lifeguarding. Provid-ed swimming lessons at an early age and at public school classes, she has served only

one year on a club swim team. A friend encouraged her to work toward lifeguard-ing at Burdette, and McDonald says she’s found it “the ideal summer job.”

“I like being outdoors, and I like helping people,” she states.

The MVHS senior turned 18 years old on Friday, July 8. She is the daughter of Jamie and Philip McDonald and has a young sister, Katelynn, who turns 16 in September.

The varsity cheer captain, she has served as a cheerleader throughout all four years at MVHS and travels with a competitive cheer team from Evansville’s Cheer Zone. In addition, she is a member of the Nation-al Honor Society, Key Club, Biology 3 and an officer in DECA. She plans to pursue a career in the medical field upon graduation from MVHS.

By Pam RobinsonIn Zimbabwe, when greeted with “Hello,

how are you,” the people answer, “I’m well if you’re well,” relates Dr. Betty Hart of Mount vernon. She repeats a lesson the Rev. Dr. Mike Rynkiewich provided to the group of four who joined him on a two-week mis-sion trip to the African nation this summer, sponsored by First United Methodist Church in Mount Vernon.

The greeting reveals the belief that indi-vidual well-being depends on community well-being, Hart explains, and underscores just one of the differences in the culture of America and the culture of Zimbabwe. The First uMC mission team of Rynkiewich and his wife Theresa, mother and daughter Alice and Terri Kendall and Hart learned to ap-preciate and respect major differences in the structure of government, families and social institutions.

Above all, they wanted to fulfill god’s mission of service in completing 32 hours of ground and air travel to work at the Fairfield Children’s Homes in Mutare, Zimbabwe. Their mission team planted hedges, helped to paint buildings, organized donations of cloth-ing as well as cleaning and medical supplies from all over the world and, most important, shared a mutual love of god with the people.

“For the two weeks we spent at the Fairfield

Children’s Homes, we served god’s mission. we gave of ourselves—not assuming that we had answers or solutions to the problems of these dear people, but seeking to know how we could serve them. we reached out, going into the homes, talking to the mothers and children, participating in the daily routines and events of life in the homes,” Hart com-ments.

“we embraced them, as they embraced us, laughing, singing, working and sharing the mutual love of god. It was indeed a force that made us—our mission team and the families at the Fairfield homes for Children—one with god. The same god that presides over us at First United Methodist is there in Zim-babwe watching over the little children and their mothers.”

in April 1980, Prime Minister Robert Mugabe declared Zimbabwe’s independence from British colonial rule. Subsequently, the British colonials left the country, taking their technology with them. Since then, the coun-try’s plentiful resources of silver and gold mines, rich land and streams have laid dor-mant and offer no sustenance to the people. The First UMC mission team was warned to suppress any comments about this unstable political situation.

Pictured in Zimbabwe with the mountains of Mozambique in the background are the First UMC mission team members. Front row L to R: Betty Hart and Terri Ken-dall; back row L to R, Mike Rynkiewich, Theresa Rynkiewich and Alice Kendall. The group served for two weeks ,from May 28 to June 12, at the Fairfield Children’s Homes in Mutare, Zimbabwe. Photo submitted.

VIKING FOOTBALL CAMP

North Posey’s 11-year-old Little League all-stars travelled to Jasper for tournament play the week of July 1 and had a successful, albeit disappointing trip.

On Friday, July 1, the 11-year-olds opened the tournament by beating Princeton 12-1 in a game shortened after four innings because of the mercy rule. Austin Pearison and Jor-dan Goedde paced North Posey with three hits apiece. Brandon Hamman added two hits while Wes Voegel, David Bender, Ma-son Wassmer, Dylan O’Brien, and Justin Cummings added one hit apiece. Hammon and Grant Parker combined on the one-hitter while giving up one unearned run.

On Sunday, July 3, 2011, they followed up with a hard fought game in beating the host team, Jasper, 2-1 on a walk-off single by Cody Reese in the bottom of the sixth inning. Haniman picked up the win for the Vikings by allowing one unearned run over six in-nings.

Goedde led the hit attack with two hits fol-lowed by one hit apiece by Pearison, Voegel, Hamman, Bender, and Reese.

On Tuesday, July 5, the team had a diffi cult time and lost to N.E. Dubois 12-1 in a game where very little went right. The offense struggled for the Vikings with only Voegel, Hanirnan, and Bender picking up hits. Voegel took the loss on the mound.

On Thursday, July 7, North Posey bounced back with a 10-0 mercy rule beating of an overmatched Loogootee team behind the three-hit pitching of Parker. Hamman lead the offense with two hits, followed by one hit apiece from Pearison, Goedde, Parker, Reese, O’Brien, and Alec Goetz.

With a record of 3-1, one would expect North Posey to advance to the single elimina-tion portion of the tournament where only the top 4 teams participate. However, since one team was undefeated, and four teams were 3-1, a runs allowed ratio based on the num-ber of runs a team surrendered divided by the number of innings a team played defense was used to calculate the tie-breaker. Although it was a disappointing way to end, the team had a successful tournament with good pitching, strong defense, and timely hitting.

North Posey’s 11 yr. old Little League all-stars traveled to Jasper for tournament play the week of July 1. Front Row: Grant Parker, David Bender, Cody Reese, Mason Wassmer and Justin Cummings Back Row: Coach Rob Voegel, Wes Voegel, Brandon Hamman, Austin Pearison, Jordan Goedde, Alec Geotz, Dylan O’Brien, Coach Doug Hamman and Coach Mike Wassmer.

MV Soccer tryouts, practice schedule is announced

North Posey 11-year-olds play well but fail to advance

Special to the NewsNorth Posey boys’ basketball recently

concluded their summer program. In early June, camp was conducted for boys entering fi rst through ninth grade. This year 91 young men participated in the camp. Players had an opportunity to learn fundamentals from the high school players and coaching staff. Camp concluded with grades 6-9 facing off against teams from Heritage Hills. The incoming freshmen class also traveled to the Springs Valley Shootout with the junior varsity and varsity team. They fi nished the weekend with a 4 and 3 record against junior varsity teams.

The junior varsity and varsity teams also

had a busy June. Both teams played a 21-game schedule that included shootouts at Springs Valley, USI, University of Evans-ville, and Pike Central. In addition to the games, players participated in a six-day team camp. Strength and agility training workouts were conducted with the football program. North Posey Coach Matt Wadsworth com-mented, “The summer gives each player an opportunity to improve as basketball players. The games we play are especially valuable in helping our players gain experience in game situations. We graduated fi ve seniors from last year’s team. Our play this summer shows we have an opportunity to develop into a

good team next winter. It will be important for players to work on their ball-handling and shooting while they are away from the gym.”

The varsity program is preparing for a season that will see signifi cant changes to the schedule. Fairfi eld, New Harmony, and the Tecumseh Classic have been removed from the schedule. Larger schools Boonville and Central will be two new additions. The Vikings will also be making their fi rst trip to play in the Graber Post Classic at North Daviess High School. North Daviess High School is located located between Odon and Elnora, Ind.

This year’s tournament features eight teams and begins on Wednesday, December 28. North Posey plays North Daviess in the 5 p.m. game. Second round games will be played December 29, and Championship round games are scheduled for December 30.

Next season’s fi eld features 3 Sectional Champions (North Daviess, Brownstown Central, Forest Park), and 2 Regional Cham-pions (North Daviess and Forest Park).

Forest Park is the defending champion. More information about the tournament and Graber Post Buildings can be obtained at www.graberpost.com.

A scheduling mix-up shortened the agenda for the St. Wendel Friday night softball league last week.

Only one game was

played, with Richie Mason outlasting O’Risky Exca-vating 8-5. The Marty Fis-cher squad forfeited its con-test to the Silver Bell, while

the game between Country Financial (Team Linex) and the Young Guns was not played.

By Steve JoosThe manager and coaches

of the Brittlebank swim team were a little concerned about the safety of the McLeans-boro public pool, so the Mount Vernon-based team opted out of a pair of meets at the Illinois pool last week.

The Barracudas were to have swum in a triangular meet with Olney on Tuesday in McLeansboro and then return to the pool for an in-vitational Saturday, gut they withdrew from both meets, citing safety concerns. The will resume their season to-night (Tuesday) at Carmi.

The Cudas did well in a pair of earlier meets, beating the Evansville YMCA in a dual meet in the River City, while taking a triangular with Carmi and Fairfi eld in Wayne County, Ill.

Considering the circumstances, more for-tunate than most are the children at Fairfi eld Homes for Children. The orphaned children live in housing at the complex, proud of the “brothers and sisters” in their families formed of love rather than blood. A woman caretaker, whom they call and endear as “mother,” pro-vides each family with complete care. She lives with her family for several weeks, then returns to her own home for a week before re-turning to the orphanage. In the interim week, another woman caretaker, known as the “aun-tie,” stays with the children.

“The mothers all wore uniforms and were always there for the children. They treated t hem like they were their own,” Hart says. “We interviewed the children and helped them make books about their young lives. When asked, ‘What do you like best,’ most said, ‘Being in a family and having sisters and brothers.’ Likewise, when asked to name somebody they really admired and would like to be like, just about all of them said, ‘My mama—she loves me, she takes care of me, she feeds me.’ Those are things we don’t think about.”

Hart said she sometimes stayed in the com-plex’s cooking hut shelling corn while her fellow mission team members busied them-selves with other tasks.

“I went to observe, but I could not ob-serve,” she states. “The children kept coming in there. They’re all very much starved for af-fection and love and touch. What they want you to do is just hold them, just put your arms around them or just take a minute and talk to them and give them your attention.”

In Mugabe’s Zimbabwe, basic social in-stitutions, such as school, are considered a privilege and an achievement. Those who can’t pay the fees are barred from attending school.

“I met two boys sitting on the gate outside of a community school. I was told that they were not ‘skipping’ school, but they had been run off by the headmaster because they could not afford their fees. So the boys simply sat outside of the school until someone could show up to pay their fees,” Hart recalls.

The backdrop to the poverty and injus-tice is the breathtaking landscape itself. The First UMC mission team awoke to monkeys calling and scampering and to the sight of poinsettias, bird of paradise plants and clear blue skies set off by mountains in the near distance.

“My metaphor for South Africa is looking up to see the new moon in the old moon’s cra-dle. You think here’s this new moon with all this potential, but there’s no light on it. The only thing you can see is what’s left of the old moon,” Hart says. “It’s like that in this country. All you can see is what’s left of a na-tion that once was one of the most powerful nations in Africa. Now, what’s left for the fu-ture, you can’t see. There’s no light on it. It’s a sad place to be, and at the same time, it’s so beautiful that you can’t help but go, ’Wow!’”

The poignant scene has inspired Hart with an even deeper sense of fulfi lling God’s mis-sion in the world. She says she’d defi nitely re-peat the trip to Zimbabwe and looks forward to First UMC’s next mission adventure.

“I left Zimbabwe with a powerful grati-tude for the things we take for granted in this country,” she refl ects,”that we have been blessed to have a democratic government that serves its citizens, that we have families, that most of us do not want for the basic comforts of life, that we have a Church that does not fail to recognize that all of our blessings lead us, even more, to recognize our need to serve others through God’s mission.”

Mission trip, from Page B1

By Steve JoosIt was a tune-up for state Babe Ruth All-

Star baseball action this weekend and the South Gibson 14-year-old team seemed to be in fairly decent running order, despite a 2-2 fi nish.

Jasper had to fi ght off a late South Gib-son rally Sunday afternoon and survived a close contest, ousting South Gibson 10-8 in the semifi nals of the Newburgh Invitational tournament at the Castle High School base-ball fi eld.

Jasper jumped on South Gibson for six runs in the bottom of the fi rst inning and that proved to be the difference, even though South Gibson scored four runs in the top of the fi fth inning and Damon Cardin nearly tied the game in the top of the seventh, but his long drive was three feet foul and just a little shy of the fence.

“Anytime you start out in the hole 6-0, it’s hard to bounce back,” Black coach Damien Word said. “Jasper’s a good team, yeah one inning. They just hit. We pitched well,

we had a couple of hits that just squirted through, but they just hit.”

Word was proud of his team’s ability to battle back in the later innings and never felt that his team was out of the game, especially after South Gibson plated four runs in the top of the fi fth inning and cut a 9-3 defi cit to 9-7.

Jasper manufactured an insurance run in the bottom of the sixth and then escaped af-ter South Gibson loaded the bases with one out in the seventh.

Word felt that the middle of the team’s lineup (Alex Smith, Kames Marshall and Derek Lindauer) hit the ball well, while Car-din and Noah Evans also hit the ball well.

The pitcher struggled early, mainly due to a lack of game experience after a two-week layover since the end of the regular season.

The 14-year-olds topped the Newburgh River Bats 7-1 Saturday to reach the semifi -nals after dropping a 14-1 decision to Mount Vernon Friday night in fi ve innings at Mulz-er Field for a split of their pool play.

Cardin doubled twice and drove in fi ve runs to lead South Gibson past Newburgh in the quarterfi nals. Both Newburgh and Jas-per are in the state tournament with South Gibson, which was another plus for this tournament, Word said.

Word was pleased with the tourney, add-ing that he’s a little more confi dent about the team’s chance after getting a chance to see them play.

South Gibson opened the tourney with a 9-3 win over Princeton-Oakland City, breaking things open with a fi ve-run second inning.

The game was called after fi ve innings due to a one hour, 45-minute time limit.

Jones and Smith combined for four in-nings of one-hit ball, while the team ran the bases and hit the ball well, Word said.

Everyone was able to play in the fi rst two games, Word added, especially against Princeton.

“Everybody contributed against Princ-eton.

Against Mount Vernon? Different story.“Errors,” Word said. “Error after error,

compounded by walks and nerves. They’re a little nervous right now, they haven’t played together and they haven’t learned to communicate right now.”

Word is impressed with the team’s athleti-cism and versatility, adding that the 14-year-olds have a good deal of pitching and can fi t in just about anywhere on the fi eld.

“We need to just have them playing to-gether,” Word said. “We have to learn to play together and we’ll get it.”

Mount Vernon scored fi ve runs in the third inning to go along with fi ve runs in the fi rst two frames while building a 10-0 bulge.

The 14-year-olds start playing for real Friday night with a 5 p.m. game at Mulzer Field against the District Three runners-up. The 13-year-olds open tourney play Thurs-day against the District Two runners-up with a 5 p.m. contest at Haubstadt, while the 15-year-olds square off against Princeton at 7:30 p.m. Thursday in McCutchanville.

By Steve JoosThe Western Hills Country Club swim

team wrapped up a fairly unusual regular season Wednesday with an unscored meet at the Evansville Country Club.

The meet was not scored mainly due to ECC’s strong advantage as far as depth and experience were concerned.

“My kids swam excellent today,” coach Lynn Sims said of her Western Hills swim-mers. “I had some excellent swims from Brooke Jackson, she really improved. Also, other swimmers who had excellent swims were Ellen Cox, who really has improved, Taylor Collins and Nicholas Carter, and my fi eld is pretty shallow, but we had great swims throughout the day. Lots of fi rsts and seconds, so I was very pleased with the way we swam.”

This was WHCC’s fi rst competitive sea-son in two years, and for the third time in the last 10 years, the Mount Vernon-based club swam all of its meets on the road and only swam two competitive meets during the regular season, the conference relays at Oak Meadow and the regular season opener at the McCutchanville club, won by Oak Meadow 615-433.

The Country Club Conference meet, which started Monday at Rolling Hills, will also be scored.

“The season has gone by so fast and they’ve really learned a lot in a short amount of time,” Sims said. “The kids have done an excellent job, they’re doing an excellent job of working on their strokes, their technique and they’ve really done a fi ne job of improv-

ing their times over this season.”WHCC’s fi rst team in two years is a mixed

bag of swimmers who mostly compete in the summer with a few who also swim for the MTV age-group team.

That’s how Sims actually likes it, since it gives the team a chance to have fun and learn swimming.

Mixed bag or not, the team was strong enough to fi nish second in the conference relays.

“We don’t have a lot of number-one swim-mers,” Sims said. “So we kind of mixed that up, we had some summer swimmers in there. We had a pretty good meet, we fi nished sec-ond and second place is not too bad.”

All of WHCC’s meets were on the road, but they performed well despite not winning any meets, Sims added. She also hopes that the team will be bigger in the future.

“We had a great showing and got many fi rst place fi nishes,” Sims said of the Oak Meadow meet. “We were simply beaten by their depth. We showed we have a great deal of talent, just not enough numbers.”

WHCC’s blue ribbon winners included Halle Bailey, Ellen Cox, Jackson, Emily Gragnon and Kendyl Bourne.

Other top fi nishers were Kelly Blair, Nat-alie Blair, Jacob Cox, Carter, Katie Culley, Logan Culley, Olivia Culley, Taylor Cul-ley, Zach Culley, Garrett Kitterman, Grady Kitterman, Ella Sims, Ty Sims and Jack Va-lier.

Other top swimmers were Ashlyn Bourne, Collins, Shelby Culley, Maggie Jones and Molly Jones.

Sims was impressed with the team’s com-petitiveness and said she is looking forward to the team’s upcoming dual meets.
