Queen’s Court Member Shines in 2021 4-H Supreme Showman Contest

50¢ Published Weekly in Danville, Indiana

4-H Bonanza

While tradition plays an important part in 4-H, the ability to try something new is also valued. Last year, when the COVID-19 pandemic struck, a 4-H Showcase took the place of the traditional county fair. This year, with the Fair in a “hybrid” mode, it was decided to add new feature to the end of Fair Week: A Buyer’s Bonanza Auction.

4-H Livestock Show Ring Becomes New Auction Venue

The Queen’s Court rushed to hug fellow member Elly Roessler after she won the Supreme Showmanship contest at the 2021 Hendricks County 4-H Fair.

Elly Roessler may have thought the high point of the 2021 Hendricks County 4-H Fair came early, when she was selected as a member of the Queen’s Court a week before the Fair started. She might never have guess a bigger honor would be hers on the last day.

Last Saturday afternoon, Elly won the title of 2021 Supreme Showman and received the Robert Scott Cooper Memorial Award for showmanship.

She earned her place in the contest when she was selected as Senior Showman for Beef Cattle. Her competitors were Lora Watson, Senior Meat Goat Showman; Travis Arney, Senior Dairy Goat Showman; Kirsten Cummings, ELLY ROESSLER Senior Sheep Showman; Meghan O’Brien, Senior Swine _______________________ Showman; Carter Settles, Senior Dairy Showman; and Brogan Smith, Senior Horse Showman.

We’ll have more about the Supreme Showman competition and other Fair activities in an upcoming special issue on the 2021 Hendricks County 4-H Fair. ______________________________________________________________________

Looking for FFA Jackets

Part of the display in the Ag Experience at the Cartlidge Barn during the 4-H Fair were several FFA blue corduroy jackets that belonged to FFA chapters around the county.

Delving Into Yester~Year

Local historian and writer Paul Miner takes items from

The Republican’s Yester-Year column to develop an interesting, informative and often humorous article.

To the Editor: Hard times hit Hendricks County in late 1883. A man named McCaslin near Lizton lost $28,000 “by the late decline of Chicago options.”

That would be almost $746,000 today.

Others in Danville and the county’s south side had lost in the neighborhood of $90,000, which in today’s dollars is about $2.4 million. “’Tis better to bear the poverty we have than to fly unto riches we know not of,” The Republican opined.

As winter neared that winter, the paper advised “it might be well to perfect a benevolent association of some kind to provide for the poor and needy.”

Many in town were in “a hard and protracted struggle with the wolf” due to sickness, “bad management, hard drinking or laziness.”

The household head “may be and no doubt is responsible” for those hard luck and poverty cases. It was up to Danville’s “prosperous and provident” citizens to protect the wives and children of those ne’er-do-wells “from hunger and cold.”

I could never count the no-counts and bad businessmen, or number Danville’s dipsomaniacs. I read per capita annual consumption during that era was 7.1 gallons of pure alcohol.

I deduce most drank less, and many consumed much more. Don’t know about beer.

Indiana had 70 large breweries in 1879, and a number of distilleries.

The paper shared an observation: “Poverty is the only burden which grows heavier in proportion to the number of dear ones who have to help bear it.” A fellow named Richter was credited with that pith. I think he was a German Romantic writer who had died more than 50 years earlier.

The Republican was sympathetic to poor, destitute women in March 1882. “You, reader, who are blessed with a comfortable home” and not missing meals was called upon to consider the plight of those wretched women who were “delicate, cultured, refined, and all unused to physical labor.”

Many were “nursed in the lap of luxury, but thrown suddenly and helplessly upon the world by some social or domestic volcano that engulfed home and friends and left them stranded and alone to struggle with the hard conditions of cruel and relentless poverty.”

Their “more fortunate sisters” could only imagine themselves in such straits, replete with woe, possibly tempted “into a gilded life of sin.”

Society was “out of joint” and The Republican wondered whether “the favored of earth” had any clue that there was “little virtue in the goodness of one who has never been sorely tempted.”

The following month, the paper offered this thought provoker: “Most people know something about the discipline of poverty, and feel quite ready to experience some of the awful responsibilities of wealth.”

Readers also were advised to distrust anyone who “talks much of his honesty.” That reminds me of a truck salesman who chased after me as I drove off a lot.

“We all know the result of an aimless, thriftless life,” a reprinted article declared in December 1884, “working only when the necessity or inclination prompts.”

It was a work or starve life, “with the final remorse of having nothing to show for a life’s labor, but errors, distress and poverty; health and manhood gone and nothing left but neglected opportunities.”

“The essential qualities of self-denial, perseverance and determination,” on the other hand, “cannot fail to produce good results.”

Some were “kept in poverty through their own fault,” sermonized the Rev. Thomas De Witt Talmadge from the Brooklyn Tabernacle in June 1886, which The Republican dutifully reprinted. “They might have been well off, but they smoked or chewed up their earnings, or they lived beyond their means.”

He overlooked illness, laziness, hard drinking, and economic downturns.

North Salem correspondent Bob O Link condemned young shiftless townsmen content to “idle away their precious moments” while their mothers and sisters were “in pressing need at home.

“They seem to think that to live and move is all that is necessary.”

Once charity was exhausted and when “the last morsel is taken from the shelf,” and when mothers are “haggard and worn from constant toil, we ask you, young men, where is your manhood to give up work entirely, be nothing but a drone and allow such a calamity to come in our midst?”

Brownsburg Fire Territory to Move One Station; Build One New Station

By Melissa Gibson Administration from the Brownsburg Fire Territory met with the Brownsburg Town Council, Brown Township Board and Lincoln Township Board in a special joint meeting on July 8. The fire department brought information forward regarding community risk reduction, development of one new firehouse and the location move of another.

Chief Larry Alcorn addressed members of the council and board, sharing their recent rating of Insurance Services Office (ISO) Class 1, an achievement reflecting excellent fire protection and services based on a range of qualifications. “[The rating] solidified, we’re doing the right thing,” Alcorn said.

The Brownsburg Fire Territory currently serves 52 square miles in the Town of Brownsburg, Lincoln Township and Brown Township. They protect more than 47,000 people, more than 800 businesses and assets of $1.4 billion.

With that said, Alcorn addressed the need for one fire station to move to a location better to serve residents and the need for an additional fire station to best cover the entire community.

Fire Marshall Steve Jones discussed the community risk reduction program and his task in accessing risk in the community.

For example, Jones analyzes data showing businesses that house hazardous materials, locations that may need additional assistance in the event of a fire such as nursing homes, schools and daycare centers and those buildings housing the town infrastructure such as wastewater plants.

Deputy Chief of Operations, Tony Smith discussed the importance of timing and the ability for the fire department to react quickly across the community.

Smith said many years ago when a house caught on fire, the family had ten minutes to get out of the house. Today, with newer homes using vinyl, plastics, open floor plans and more, a family has approximately three minutes to get out of the house.

“The National Fire Protection Association (FPA) 1710 still serves and as one of the current standards to provide the best level of protection,” Smith said. “Our goal is to be on the scene within four minutes.”

The department research has led administration to see a significant difference in the number of runs from Station 132 versus Station 133.

Data from 2020 shows, Station 133 at Country Road 1000 E, receives an average of 735 calls per year while Station 132 at State Road 267 and E County Road 1000 N, receives an average of 311 calls per year.

“I’m not trying to downplay the importance of one property or another,” Smith said. “In certain areas, we have farmland and homes with large lots but in other areas, like the neighborhoods, if we don’t catch one house, the whole neighborhood could burn down. If we’re not there after five minutes, the fire can become a huge issue. It doubles every minute.”

In order to cover high density areas, the Brownsburg Fire Territory proposed a move from Station 132 just slightly south near County Road 800, gaining more than 2,000 addresses within the four-minute response time and increasing efficiency.

While the move may put just over 150 addresses outside of the four-minute response time, those addresses will still be less than five minutes.

The administration also proposed a new Station 134 to join the Brownsburg coverage area within the next two years. The new station would cover the southeast portion of Brownsburg, to the east of Ronald Regan Parkway and provide better efficiency to more than 2800 addresses.

Alcorn reviewed the locations of other fire departments that will also assist in coverage, including Pittsboro and a new station currently underway in Whitestown.

“No one cares what uniform we’re wearing when we show up,” Alcorn said.

“They want the closest people there to help.

When we put that fourth station in, we’ll have really good coverage in Brownsburg and we’ve considered the growth between Interstate 74 and County Road 800 as well as Ronald Regan Parkway and future plans there.”

Alcorn said the cost to taxpayers would be minimal, $4.25 per year, per household for the first fire station move.

Receives BA From Berea

Soon to be added are permanent restrooms, reforestation of some areas of the park, more trail development, and a property office.

Guests at the grand opening of W.S. Gibbs Memorial Park gathered at one of the new park’s shelters. ____________________________________________________

If one advances confidently in the direction of his dreams, and endeavors to live the life which he has imagined, he will meet with a success unexpected in common hours.

Henry David Thoreau What the 19th century naturalist and philosopher discovered in his time at Walden Pond, Hendricks County Parks and Recreation has followed, and on Wednesday, July 21, 2021, a dream that began over 10 years met with success in the opening of W.S. Gibbs Memorial Park.

Located in the southwest corner of Washington Township, the park the park is a legacy left to the people of Hendricks County by the Gibbs family, who settled in the area in the 1830’s. The property remained in the Gibbs family for nearly 90 years, until John “Chub” and Lydia Gibbs sold 140 acres of to the Hendricks County Park Board in 2009. The land was to be developed into a park to memorial John’s great-grandfather, W.S. Gibbs.

In 2013, a master plan was developed in 2013. When the Department took full ownership of the land in 2019, the plans turned to action.

Ground was broken in July 2020, with members of the Gibbs family and county officials present.

Phase I of the development of the park was put into action on 68 acres. Management and removal of invasive species from wooded areas began.

Two ponds, totaling 5.5 acres were constructed (one featuring a 20 ft. x 35 ft. ADA-accessible dock. The ponds will be stocked with fingerlings by the Indiana Department of Natural Resources this fall. When the ponds are ready, consumptive fishing (you can keep what you catch, within DNR rules). The ponds will be regulated under enforcement of Indiana DNR and fishing licenses, bag limits, etc. will be enforced.

Other amenities presently available include 5 parking lots with a total of 136 spaces and 7 bike racks.

Two shelters are available and may be served through Hendricks County Parks and Recreation.

There are over 2 miles of well-marked trails, and a nature-themed playground and nature trail for children, A 18-hole disc golf course is surrounded by native prairie grasses.

Picnic areas have tables supplied by Hendricks County Recycling District.

The earth removed in construction of the ponds was turned into a 30-foot-tall observation hill.

Parks Superintendent Ryan Lemley spoke at the opening event, outlining the history of the Department, started in 2002, with the goal of creating nature-themed parks, in the style of the Indiana State Park system. The first was McCloud Nature Park, near North Salem, opened in 2003.

In 2016, the Department took over the western section of the Vandalia Trail from Amo to Coatesville, which is part of the National Road Heritage Trail.

Lemley explained that while COVID-19 presented many hurdles to the Parks Department, it also created an increase in attendance.

“We need parks more than ever,” he said.

As with any project as large and complex as Gibbs Park, there was a long list of “Thank yous” to be mentioned, starting with the Gibbs family.

“They had been approached by high-density development,” Lemley said, “but they wanted to leave a legacy.”

He presented John and Lydia Gibbs with an engraved shovel used in last year’ ground breaking.

Civil Engineering Consultants, Inc. in Greencastle and Green 3 Studio in Indianapolis worked with the Department on planning and John Hall Construction of Plainfield helped to make them a reality.

Lemley thanked the Hendricks County Commissioners, Hendricks County Council and County Attorney Greg Steuerwald for vision, guidance and support. He thanked the Parks Board members, present and past, the Parks Foundation of Hendricks County, Hendricks County Community Foundation, Hendricks County Disc Golf Club, Hendricks Recycling District, the Town of Avon, IDEM and Indiana Army Corps of Engineers, and DNR Division of Fish and Wildlife.

Thanks also went to Visit Hendricks County, local Boy Scouts who made the Park part of their Eagle Scout projects, and the daughters of Assistant Park Superintendent Eric Ivie’s daughters for coming up with the names for the new park’s trails.

Special thanks went to the Department’s maintenance crew, who were working out of box trailer as the park was being created, and the Park Naturalists for endless hours of planning and work.

“They say a park is always a work in progress,” Lemley said in closing. Looking at the work already accomplished, he urged those present to go “enjoy your park!”

Hunting Maintenance During the Summer

By Mike E. Neilson

We welcome the voice of Mike Neilson, longtime Danville High School teacher and longtime hunting enthusiast. He’s shared his hunting experience in book form with Class Dismissed: I’m Going Hunting!

(2004); We’re Gonna Need More Arrows!: Hunting Adventurs Around the Country and Around the World (2009); and Pig Tails and Other Hunting Adventures (2014) Part IV If you are going afield for more than just a day hunt, consider getting and maintaining spare chargers for phones or GPS. If you have these already, it might be a good idea to check the charge to be sure they are at full capacity. If you like to carry a camera afield be sure you have a backup battery and if it takes cards, keep a blank one ready.

Murphy’s law undoubtable will kick in as you pose your trophy for that perfect shot and the battery is dead or the data card is full.

Check the straps to your climbing/ fall restraints. This only takes a few minutes and is a potential life saver.

Hopefully, you will never have to use one but if you do, you absolutely cannot afford to have them fail. You are falling already, do not add insult to injury by having this vital piece of equipment falter. I know many folks swear at them as well as by them. But please check them at least once a year. Finally, if you do not use one, please consider this as a necessary item for hunting from most elevated stands.

Keep your skinning and gutting knives sharp. Just pull them out of their sheaths and test the edge. If the blades are sharp, put them back and hope you get the chance to put them to work later, if not, give them a quick touch up. If you have teenage daughters, sharpen the knives in front of their dates (it’s a dad thing). If you have ever field dressed game, fish, or fowl with a dull knife, you know what I’m talking about. Not only do you have to work harder, but you stand a better chance of injuring yourself.

Treestand maintenance. I can’t say enough about checking straps, rachets and the stand itself. I pull my stands out of the woods after each season. During the summer months and just before I put them up for the fall, I do a visual inspection of the metal, looking for fatigue, broken parts, missing bolts and pieces. If you keep your stands in the woods all year, the same advice applies, especially straps. I don’t know why mice and squirrels delight in chewing straps, but you absolutely don’t want to get climbing up and have the straps break. Again, straps are cheap compared to the potential consequences. It also never hurts to carry a spare rachet strap in your pack in the event the vermin (either 2 legged or 4) decide to damage or remove your straps.

The same advice goes for tree steps, climbing stands, or climbing sticks, lock-on stands or homemade stands. A bit of checking prior to putting them out in the field is a cheap insurance policy that your hunts will stay as safe as possible. ______________________________________________

Exploring Hendricks County

By Jackie Horn Jackie Horn and her husband, John, transplanted from Warsaw to Plainfield to be near family. They have two children and nine grandchildren. An Advanced Indiana Master Naturalist, Jackie is a retired substitute teacher who continues to teach (and learn) about all things outdoors. John is a retired CNC programmer and the photographer on the team. The Horns enjoy traveling, walking, hiking, kayaking, and bicycling.

A Jewel of a Wildflower I love spring wildflowers. I like the way Nature teases us with a bit of warm weather and a few tiny Spring Beauties and then, BOOM! The meadows and woods explode with color as different flowers all bloom at once.

Summer wildflowers are a bit less dramatic but just as lovely. Right now I’m enjoying Black-eyed Susans, Ironweed, and Queen Anne’s Lace but my favorite is just beginning to flower…. Jewelweed.

Jewelweed (Impatiens capensis) is related to the Impatiens sold as annuals in plastic packages at garden centers.

If you think those are pretty, a stand of Jewelweed will knock your socks off! Jewelweed boasts bright orange flowers topping dense green foliage as tall as five feet. It grows in thick stands so rather than a single pretty flower, there is a bank of vibrant blooms. A favorite of bees, butterflies, and hummingbirds, Jewelweed won’t be found in a sunny meadow. It prefers shady, moist areas such as along wooded creek beds. This makes the flowers more stunning as a spike of color in the shadows.

Not only is Jewelweed beautiful, but it’s also useful.

The plant has medicinal properties. I’ve been told if applied to nettles or poison ivy, the sap from crushed stems will relieve the itch or sting almost immediately. (I have never tried this remedy and have no desire to roll in stinging nettles to test it.) Jewelweed has antifungal properties and Native American medicine utilizes the plant for skin irritations and athlete’s foot treatment. When ingested, the plant can be used for mild digestive disorders.

Besides the gorgeous color and medicinal uses, Jewelweed is entertaining. They’re “touch-me-nots” or “poppers”. The fruit looks like a tiny bean. Gently pluck the pod and hold it in your hand and as it warms, it pops scattering seeds. If the fruit is ripe, it really can’t be picked without discharging. I can’t tell you how long we’ve stood in a patch of Jewelweed searching for seed pods, carefully pulling them from the plant and laughing as the seeds explode.

Another wonderful characteristic of Jewelweed is its long blooming period. Most wildflowers bloom only a short time. Jewelweed, an annual (it only lives one season) begins flowering in July and continues until the first hard frost kills it off usually in October. Remember all those exploding seeds? Next year the stand will be back thanks to self-seeding.

August is a great time to escape into a cool woods for a leisurely walk in the shade. If there happens to be a creek to wade, even better. Top it off with a patch of Jewelweed and it doesn’t get any better. The key is to enjoy the beauty around us ... and to pluck the seed pods gently. ______________________________________________

ON THE MUSIC SCENE

By Allen Kiger

Last week I said that live music is back. And it is back, right here in Danville, with Grammy-winning musicians The Kentucky Headhunters, on Saturday, August 7th at Ellis Park!

I recently had the opportunity to talk to Richard Young of The Kentucky Headhunters and about how excited he and the group are to be back out performing for the fans.

According to Richard, during COVID the band wrote and recorded a new album which is set to be released this October.

In talking with Richard, I asked him what the fans should expect on August 7th when The Kentucky Headhunters perform in Danville at the new amphitheater at Ellis Park. Richard was so excited talking about how they will play their big hits like “Dumas Walker,” “Walk Softly on This Heart of Mine,” and “Oh Lonesome Me” as well as entertaining with lesser known hits that fans will also remember. Richard wants to see Ellis Park packed full of fans when the band rolls into town on August 7th.

Opening the show for The Kentucky Headhunters is local favorite band, Cornfield Mafia. Doors open at 5:30 p.m. Cornfield Mafia will take the stage at 7 p.m. followed by The Kentucky Headhunters at 7:45 p.m. Great live music and low admission prices (child under 12 free with each paid adult), makes this the perfect family-friendly, summer evening destination.

To listen to my full interview with Richard Young, make sure to tune into WYRZ 98.9 FM on Sunday, August 1st at 11 a.m. ______________________________________________

A Note From Bee Today we have so many TV programs we can choose to watch. It surely runs into the hundreds. Why do so many people we know have such a hard time finding programs to watch. In our case we e-mail our friends the names of programs we find acceptable to watch. We do not find using the F...word or worse, sexual behavior, drug use, or violence add anything or make for a more enjoyable program.

These type of programs would have to watched while children were in bed. Yes, we can watch PBS, documentaries, and Hallmark which are totally acceptable and do but we do want some variety. A friend who is a retired librarian told me books also have to have these things which are unacceptable to be published. So there really is no answer to the problem. Just keep doing what we are doing.

A Squirrel About Town

By Archy “How was the Fair?” was Archy’s greeting.

“Too long,” I answered. “And too short.”

The squirrel nodded in understanding. “You saw ghosts, didn’t you?”

Archy always seems to know what I’ve been thinking.

“Yes,” I told him. “In a way. Every time I saw a former 4-H member, I saw every photo I took of them. Cleaning the stalls, carrying water, sleeping on a bale of straw. I saw them in the show ring the first time they were in front of a judge. I saw their smiles when they were handed their first ribbon.”

“Quite understandable. You know, they say you take a piece of the soul when you take a photograph of someone,” the squirrel explained. “And you keep those pieces in your soul.”

He was right. I was carrying around 15 years of memories from this Fairgrounds.

“It’s because you focus on them,” Archy said. “When you focus, they stay with you. Funny the way the mind works, isn’t it?”

The squirrel, as usual, was right. ___________________________________________ The books that help you the most are those which make you think the most. The hardest way of learning is by easy reading; every man that tries it finds it so. But a great book that comes from a great thinker, — it is a ship of thought, deep freighted with truth, with beauty too.

It’s Green Bean Season in the Garden!

By Colletta Kosiba Hendricks County Master Gardener

There is nothing like the taste of fresh green beans.

Green beans use to be called string beans as they had fibrous “strings” running down the length of the pod that had to be removed before eating the bean. Beans no longer have that fibrous string.

Beans are rich in plant protein, fiber, B-vitamins, iron, folate, calcium, potassium, phosphors and zine. Low in fat!

Some recipes call for raw green beans, but eating them uncooked may cause nausea, diarrhea, bloating, and vomiting in some folks, due to their lectin content. Cooking neutralizes their lectins and improves their taste, digestibility, and antioxidant content.

Or did you choose pole beans the climbing vines that may reach 10 to 15 feet tall. Pole beans require a trellis or staking; their beans grow from 3-4 inches long. Pole beans yield more beans and are more disease-resistant.

Pole beans area easy to pick because they are up higher!

You grow lots of beans in limited garden space Set up your trellis, teepee, fence or other support for pole beans prior to planting.

I hope you did a teepee for the kids! Here is how: Tie 3 to 4 (or more) 7-footlong bamboo poles or long, straight branches together at the top and splay the legs in a circle. Then plant 3 or 4 seeds around each pole.

As vines appear, train them to wind up the poles. For more stability, wrap string/wire around the poles about halfway up, encircling the tepee; (also gives the vines something to grab.) The kids will love going in teepee-hiding and picking beans!!

A Bark From the Past: Henry

[Editor’s Note: The Republican’s first four-footed correspondent was Henry. A mixed breed rescue dog, Henry would make observations about being a dog in a small town. The articles, which ran in 2006 - 2010, have been languishing in the computer’s memory and we thought a new audience might enjoy some canine commentary.

Here’s an early column from 2006.]

I had the strangest dream last night.

When it started, I was in our back yard. It wasn’t our real back yard. But, it was our back yard. There were lots of trees, so many trees that I couldn’t see the porch. My human was calling me for supper, but I didn’t know how to get there. He kept calling and calling, but I was lost.

Then, everything changed. I was still in the back yard.

But it was all sand. And my human was still calling me for supper. When I looked for him, I could see him on the porch, but it was a long way off. I tried to run to the house, but my feet kept sinking in the sand. The harder I tried to run, the faster I sank. I couldn’t get anywhere.

Then, the house was where it was supposed to be and our back yard was like it is. I was on the other side of the yard, but I took a few steps and just jumped. And I could fly! It was so neat! I flew to the porch and ate my supper.

All of a sudden, I was walking around the square in Danville with my human. The people were all pointing at me and laughing. I couldn’t figure out why. Then, I realized that I didn’t have my collar on! It felt so strange, walking around without a collar. (When my humans give

Make green beans taste good INGREDIENTS • 1-pound green beans, washed and pat dry • 2 tablespoons olive oil or canola oil • 1 teaspoon salt • 3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper • 1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic (6 cloves garlic) • 2 tablespoons fresh chopped parsley • 1/4 cup parmesan cheese INSTRUCTIONS Preheat the oven to 425°. Lightly spray a baking sheet or tray with cooking oil spray.

Arrange the green beans in one layer on baking sheet.

Drizzle with oil, season with salt, pepper, garlic and parmesan. Toss beans to coat.

Roast in the oven for 20-25 minutes, tossing halfway through cooking time, until fork tender.

Remove from oven, season with extra salt and pepper to taste. Sprinkle parsley over them.

Why couldn’t the green bean answer the door? It was in the can. ______________________________________________

me a bath, I don’t feel right until I get my collar back on.

It was like that.)

Then, I was at a dog show. There were so many humans and so many dogs! I never saw so many dogs!

Then, I figured out that all the dogs were dogs who have crossed the Rainbow Bridge. I saw my bother Milo and my sister Annie. Then, I ran into two black dogs. I knew that they were Cosmo and Louie, brothers that belonged to my humans before I came from Nebraska. But I knew who they were. And then, I looked up and saw Sunshine!

My beloved Sunshine! She was barking for me to come over to where she was. But I knew it wasn’t time for me to go there yet.

Then, they all disappeared and I was back at my house.

My human had put all our supper dishes on the floor, but I couldn’t find mine. My brothers and sisters were all having their suppers, but I didn’t know where I was supposed to be! I heard my human calling me, but I couldn’t see where he was. It was awful! Then, he was petting me and saying, “Wake up, Henry! Come on, buddy! Let’s go outside and then we can have breakfast.” Only this was real!

I was awake and knew that all that other stuff had been a dream.

I wonder if dreams mean anything; Maybe my dream was telling me something important. Nah! Now that I think about it, I doubt that dreams really mean anything.

Do you ever have dreams like that? Have you ever dreamed that you were lost? Or that you could fly? Or that you were trying to run and couldn’t? I bet not. That stuff is all just too weird! But you know what? I can’t wait to dream some of it again!

Thought for the Day: We all have dreams in common.

The jury is still out on whether or not dreams actually mean anything, either good or bad. Maybe sometimes they do. I imagine mostly they don’t. Either way, I wouldn’t lose any sleep over it!

There are two kinds of clocks. There is the clock that is always wrong, and that knows it is wrong, and glories in it; and there is the clock that is always right — except when you rely upon it, and then it is more wrong than you would think a clock could be in a civilized country.

Giving, formal and informal, is common. Just how common is it? Who gives and to whom do they give? Giving USA (GivingUSA.org) researches and publishes answers to these questions. In 2020, Americans gave over $471 billion to charitable causes.

The Giving USA infographic indicates the four primary categories of givers to nonprofit organizations are individuals, foundations, bequests (money granted through a will), and corporations. In 2020, individuals gave $324 billion which is the largest category of givers comprising 69% of the total. This value demonstrates both how common giving is in the United States and how much value we place on giving. Giving by foundations makes up 19% and equals over $88 billion. Money given through wills (bequests) reflects almost $41 billion and represents 9% of gifts. Lastly, corporate giving totals $16 billion reflecting 4% of gifts.

So, to whom are all of these gifts going? Giving USA researches that information along with percentages of total giving. The single biggest recipient of charitable dollars is Religion equaling $131 billion and almost 28% of all gifts.

Education is the second largest recipient at $71 billion and about 15%. The third largest category is Human Services receiving $65 billion at 14% of total gifts. Seven other categories rounding out the totals.

This information demonstrates the commitment Americans have to the philanthropic spirit and their belief in the potential people can achieve when they work together voluntarily to address human need and promote human flourishing.

Voices Your Mental Health

By Chase Cotton, Community Director The Willow Center 317-852-3690

The Opposite of Addiction is Connection

What is on My Roof?

The home’s roof is designed to withstand the outside elements and keep them outside. The roof stands against sun, wind, rain, heat and cold with little attention or thanks. When we step back and look at our home we see the landscaping, the exterior walls and then we look up to see this large element - the roof. We then notice these unsightly black streaks running down the shingles. In most cases this is an algae and is harmless, it just makes the home look bad. When the homes appearance is affected, so goes the value. Potential buyers may see this staining as a sign of deeper problems and believe the roof may need replaced.

Algae is an organism that can grow on the shingles and roof fixtures and can hold moisture that could lead to issues beyond aesthetics. The good news is that it can be cleaned from the roof. I would recommend a professional roof cleaning company for safety reasons. Ladders, steep slopes, and water can spell trouble.

If you are one of those Do-It-Yourselfers, I recommend selecting a good cleaner that is designed for the roof and follow their instructions. Remember to protect the landscaping since the chemicals are designed to kill a growing thing.

The task should be done on a cloudy day, so the chemicals have time to work before drying. The chemicals do the work. You do not want to scrub or use high pressure on the shingles which can do damage.

There are methods that can prevent the algae from appearing. We used to insert a strip of either copper or zinc along the ridge of the roof and the chemical reaction from the metals would prevent the growth of the algae. Today, if replacing the roof, you can now purchase shingles that have metal granules along chemicals that prevent the algae growth.

If you look up and the growth on your roof is green, we have a different problem. That is most likely moss which is a plant and can most defiantly damage the roof. Again, we want to clean and prevent moss from the roof. The same methods that prevents algae will also treat the moss.

Additionally, we want to help the roof to dry since moss needs moisture to grow. Trim the trees back to help the sun and wind dry the roof. Remove any debris that may be holding the moisture such as leaves, twigs and pine needles.

The roof is a large part of the exterior of our homes and expense to replace. Keep it looking good and lasting long. ______________________________________________

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), loneliness and social isolation is directly associated with higher rates of depression, anxiety, and suicidal ideation. The CDC also reports that social isolation also significantly increases the risk of premature death from a variety of causes, including drug overdose.

Unfortunately, isolation is a major risk for people with addiction or substance use disorders, due to the stigma associated with such, and due to the often negative relational effects of symptomatic behaviors and choices. In other words, people who are misusing substances are often very isolated, and therefore at a higher risk of premature death.

Some may argue that they are not isolated at all, especially with the correlation of substance misuse and the party scene.

However, codependent relationships, or relationships that are purely founded upon substance misuse alone are simply not the kind of connections we truly need as human beings.

For these reasons, we agree wholeheartedly with the sentiments of Johann Hari in his popular TED Talk when he said, “The opposite of addiction is connection.” Ultimately, all of us have two basic needs that need to be met for health outcomes to occur: safety and connection.

Long-term recovery has everything to do with establishing new PEOPLE, new PLACES, and new THINGS. • PEOPLE: Those who are recovering from addiction need to connect with people who are sober, consistent, loving, and supportive of their recovery. They do NOT need more so- called “friends” who are still using, or who may convince them to use in relapse.

• PLACES: Those who are recovering from addiction need places to simply “be” in that are safe, stable, healthy, and affordable. They do NOT need the same stressful surroundings and environments they were in before that may have contributed to their initial use.

• THINGS: Those who are recovering from addiction need new hobbies and activities that are fun, rejuvenating, and entertaining. They do NOT need boredom and lack of engagement.

The first step in getting re-connected in your recovery journey is reaching out for help. Of course, this can be a very scary step to take. “Will I be judged?” “Will I actually get the help I need?” “Will I lose everything and everyone I love?” These are totally valid questions to ask in our society today.

The Willow Center team wants to encourage you and let you know that you will NOT be judged, you WILL get the help you need, and you will NOT LOSE everything and everyone you love when you reach out for help here.

We will come alongside of you to help you evaluate and transform your life by guiding you through your journey of grown, healing, and sustainability.

We believe in the power of change. You are not alone!

Letters To The Editor An Open Letter to the Hendricks County Board of Heath Who Are Fixing a Thing That Isn’t Broken And by “thing,” I mean COVID-19 safety measures for our kids.

Our son is excited to begin his second grade this year.

The leadership, staff, and faculty at his school did an amazing job keeping our kids healthy throughout the pandemic. Given last year’s successes in the classrooms regarding phenomenally low community spread, why would any of our leaders elect to change policies that worked?

Our School Board members listen to you. What did you tell them?

Inexplicably, the 2021-22 COVID-19 Protocol approved by the Avon Community School Corporation states masks will not be required for unvaccinated individuals, including adult visitors and classroom aides. The protocol says the policy may change to make masks a requirement in classrooms if directed by the Hendricks County Health Department.

See that word “if”? It’s doing a lot of heavy lifting and hides a dark scene right below the surface. “If” tells us that, despite the success of last year’s proven plan, our community leaders are willing to opt for one or more vulnerable students (your son? your daughter?) to get COVID-19— students who would have otherwise been protected by universal mask requirements—before making changes back to last year’s proven methods.

This new policy directly conflicts with the CDC’s emphasis on layered mitigation (protection) strategies that include universal correct use of masks for unvaccinated individuals (curious readers can find the recent CDC guidance below). Why wouldn’t our school leadership use their CDC-granted allowance to make mask use universally required in schools with kids under age 12 for the 2021-2022 school year given 100% of students in those buildings are ineligible for a COVID-19 vaccine and comprise our most vulnerable population?

The CDC guidelines are written by some of the top medical experts in the nation on infectious disease control and prevention. We understand that people are exhausted and that a vocal portion of parents want things to return to normal regardless of the impact on community health, let alone the child who sits near their own. For them, the issue seems less about the science and more about a deep-

ly felt attack on personal freedoms. Navigating this issue is understandably messy; leading our community safely through a pandemic is a grueling task for our public servants and leaders in the education system.

When COVID-19 first affected us, Hendricks County schools resolved to follow the best science including the CDC guidelines to shape their response to the pandemic, and that policy served the entire community well and kept our teachers and children safe. Why are we changing things in favor of less protection for our most vulnerable?

Sincerely, John Essex ______________________________________________ Climate Tax There are two types of politicians: those who show up in history textbooks and those who don’t. Attach your name to important legislation that protects or revitalizes your constituency, and that name will be chiseled into school placards, street signs and statue pedestals. Fail, and that name won’t be chiseled anywhere. Fortunately for House Representative Jim Baird, he has all the ingredients necessary to elevate Indiana and its fourth congressional district to supreme national importance, cementing his place in Hoosier history books.

No one has to tell a Hoosier how important agriculture is. While some environmentalists focus on how the agricultural industry is terrible for the environment, the relationship is not as simple as “farming bad.” Quite the opposite, agriculture creates unique solutions to environmental problems. From low-carbon, corn-based fuel to soy-based construction materials, biomaterials grown on Indiana farms are a promising technology in the fight against climate change. Baird himself recognized this fact in his op-ed, “Climate solutions are abundant in West Central Indiana.”

His recent legislative history already demonstrates his commitment to enabling Hoosiers to take full advantage of the benefits of climate-conscious technology. In just the last two months, he has joined the Conservative Climate Caucus, published an op-ed urging support for green renewable technologies, signaled his backing of the Growing Climate Solutions Act – which would provide support to private sectors that store carbon emissions – and co-sponsored the Year-Round Fuel Choice Act – which would allow the year-round sale of low-carbon ethanol fuel. All of this already puts Baird on the right track. Still, to elevate West Central Indiana’s national status, he’ll have to be sure not to lose his momentum.

Baird currently serves as a member of the House Agriculture Committee; House Committee on Science, Space, and Technology; House Biofuels Caucus; Conservative Climate Caucus; and other STEM-oriented governing bodies. This, coupled with his Purdue University bachelor’s degree in animal science, makes Baird a supremely qualified mind when it comes to the environment and a significant powerbroker when it comes to green technology and its regulation. Using that unique position to lead the charge against climate change is not only the right thing to do for our future generations, but it also benefits Hoosiers.

Baird should not hesitate to go big in his fight against climate change. Regulation geared at lowering carbon emissions would combat climate problems and drive up demand for Indiana-grown biomaterials. Baird’s first step should be supporting The Energy Innovation and Carbon Dividend Act, which would create a tax on carbon and distribute its revenue directly to the American people through a monthly dividend. The bill would decrease carbon emissions and create demand for low-carbon alternatives, and since the tax’s revenue would be distributed straight to the American people instead of getting locked up in Washington, it would do so all without increasing the government’s size and scope. Jim Baird has every reason to get behind the bill – it’s good for the environment, and it’s great for Indiana.

West Central Indiana is uniquely situated to grow green technology through its massive agricultural capacity, and its representative Jim Baird is uniquely situated to lead when it comes to green technology. A future where West Central Indiana is the biomaterial capital of the world is one good politician away. Jim Baird should endorse the EICDA.

Isaiah 117 House Will Serve Hendricks County HCCF Community Grants Now Accepting Applications Foster Children The Hendricks County Community Foundation

While donations have poured in, supplies will continually be needed. ___________________________________________________

Isaiah 117 House offered lemonade stands all across the country in a recent fundraiser. ____________________________________________________

By Melissa Gibson When children are removed from their home due to child abuse, neglect or other causes, many of us look at the situation as positive because they’ll be going to a safe environment, but for them, it can be one of the hardest and most traumatic days of their life.

Rhonda Paulson is the Founder and Executive Director of Isaiah 117 and opened a home in their Elizabethton, Tenn. community in 2017 to care for foster children awaiting placement with a foster family. Thanks to a television show with host Mike Rowe, “Returning the Favor,” that aired in March of 2020, the interest in a similar program in communities across the U.S. skyrocketed.

Ginger Summers of Zionsville and CASA volunteer in Boone County is one of the people who initially contacted Paulson for more information.

“On ‘removal day’ the Department of Child Services (DCS) will go to the home and do the removal. Sometimes it’s relatively smooth, many times the police are called and then the child(ren) go back to the DCS office to begin the process of finding a foster home,” Summers said. “The number of foster homes needed is astronomical, so sometimes this can take an hour, sometimes multiple hours or potentially overnight.”

Children are often dirty, hungry, have bugs, duct taped shoes and a trash bag with few belongings. According to Summers, DCS staff are making calls, doing paperwork and trying to give them baths in a kitchenette sink.

“The DCS office is not equipped to care for the children while they’re in the processes of finding placement,” Summers said. “Our Isaiah 117 House will serve Boone, Hendricks and Montgomery County.”

Just in Indiana, other Isaiah 117 homes are currently in the works in Marion, Knox, Spencer-Perry and Tippecanoe counties, with many others to add across the nation.

She says to think of the home as similar to your trendy grandma’s. It’s nice, clean, has fresh bed linen on the beds, a playground in the backyard and volunteers there to help ease the trauma of leaving all they’ve ever known.

The purpose of the Isaiah 117 House is threefold; serve the children in need of care, serve the DCS staff and serve the foster families that take the children home with them.

“As the program coordinator, they’ll reach out to me and tell me they have three kids, they’ll be at the house in an hour and then myself and volunteers will meet them there to welcome the kids and the DCS worker,” Summers said.

From there, volunteers’ goal is to try to make an undesirable situation a little more comforting.

“Do they want something to eat, do they want to rest on one of the beds, do they want to play on the jungle gym outside?,” Summers said. “We’re there to let them do whatever they need to do safely. Each child will get a new duffle bag, one new outfit including socks and shoes, toiletry items, school supplies… whatever they need. Our

goal is to help them hold their head up and walk into their new foster home with dignity.”

The DCS worker will also have the benefit of knowing the child(ren) are taken care of and they can begin their calls and paperwork in the privacy of an office.

“There is an extreme turn over rate for case workers, so whatever we can do to lesson that load just a bit, we’ll do it. They aren’t able to leave the house because the children are considered wards of state. So, if they need a coffee or something to eat or anything like that, we can do that for them,” Summers said.

Furthermore, the organization plans to provide support for the foster families.

“Families can come to the home to pick up the children.

This allows for a little more acclimation for both the family and the kids, instead of everything being a big rush,” Summers said. “Foster families can also receive two weeks of supplies to get the child set up. If they need a bed or need something for school, we can help them with that to make the transition easier.”

Summers has shared the rendering of what the house will look like on their Whitestown property. ___________________________________________________

Currently, the brick-and-mortar location is in process, but Summers and volunteers have already begun their wrap around services. Each month, they bring an appreciation lunch or brunch to the three DCS offices they support.

Children that have been removed from home and headed for a foster home are already receiving the duffle bag and new clothing.

“We have had the property donated to us and are currently working with a builder. We plan to break ground in September and open the house in January of 2022. Each home will also have a connected visitation space for parents who received supervised visits with their children. We saw the need for this, particularly when COVID hit; they need a space with a small kitchenette, restroom, family room with games and it’s a huge blessing to not have to visit at McDonalds or the library for hours on end,” Summers said.

There are many volunteer and donation opportunities available, particularly as the organization gets the home built and established. Caregiver training will be available this winter for those that want to work directly with the children. Other volunteers are needed to maintain the property and still, donations will be an ongoing need.

“Right now, we can use new duffle bags, underwear and socks. Once the house is built, we’ll need new furniture for the home. I have had many offer a used couch or hand-medown clothing and while that is such a blessing, we really want everything to be brand new, so we can lavishly love on these kids,” Summers said.

The Community Unity Grant Program is a direct result of the Hendricks County Community Needs Assessment, which led to HCCF’s commitment to pursuing greater community unity in our county. This Community Unity Grant Program aligns with HCCF’s GIFT VII Implementation Grant Program with the same focus.

This program is designed to support projects and programs that encourage community unity in Hendricks County that are not already addressed in the Community Foundation’s GIFT VII Implementation Plan.

This program is open to projects and programs that meet these priorities: Increased civic engagement Inclusivity, diversity, equity & accessibility (IDEA) Voter education and engagement Volunteerism including public and nonprofit Board service Stronger sense of County pride/brand HCCF has also opened the grant application process for Community Impact Grants. Community Impact Grants offer financial assistance for charitable programs and projects serving Hendricks County.

This responsive grant program is designed to be open-ended allowing for nonprofits and charitable groups to apply for funding to help meet the needs of their organization in service to the needs of Hendricks County.

Through these two programs, Community Foundation funding is available to local nonprofit organizations that are seeking to move their organization to the next level of service in our community.

Applications and further information on these programs can be found on the HCCF’s website at www.hendrickscountycf.org or by calling 317-268-6240.

Community Unity grant applications will be accepted on a rolling basis, reviewed monthly.

Community Impact grant applications are due no later than Friday, August 27 at 3 pm. ______________________________________________

Duke Energy Donates Storm Radios To Hendricks County Emergency Management Agency For Distribution

Jean Renk, Government & Community Relations Manager for Duke Energy (left) presents storm radios to Dawn Mason, Director Hendricks County Emergency Management Agency. ___________________________________________________

As a part of a joint effort to promote storm preparedness, Duke Energy donated storm radios to the Hendricks County Emergency Management Agency for distribution to residents.

“Duke Energy wants our customers to be prepared in case of severe weathe,” explained Duke Energy Goverment & Community Re-

lations Manager Jean Renk.

“Often times, we forget that storms are unpredictable and can devastate communities. Storm radios keep us connected when unforeseen outages occur and the need for information is critical, especially for our vulnerable customers.”

Here are some tips for Duke Energy customers on

what to do when the power goes out: ▪ Seek shelter or stay inside a well-constructed building ▪ Have a portable radio, TV or NOAA Weather Radio on hand to monitor important information.

▪ Disconnect or turn off any nonessential electrical equipment that may start automatically when power is restored to avoid overloading circuits.

▪ Do not open freezers or refrigerators more than necessary. Opening will allow food to thaw more quickly.

▪ Follow instructions and guidance of emergency management officials.

▪ In case of strong winds, stay away from windows and doors, even if they are covered. Seek shelter in a small interior room, closet or hallway on the lowest floor.

▪ Do not walk, swim or drive through flood waters.

Just six inches of fast-moving water can knock you down, and one foot of mov-

ing water can sweep your vehicle away.

▪ Consider signing up for our Medical Alert program if someone in your household is seriously ill or on a life support system.

After a storm: ▪ Assume all downed lines are energized and report them to us immediately by calling Duke Energy.

▪ Stay away from flooded areas and debris. They can conceal downed power lines.

▪ Resist the temptation to drive around looking at storm damage. You could hinder rescue efforts or restoration efforts and jeopardize your safety.

▪ If you’re using a generator, operate it outside your home and connect appliances directly to it. Do not wire your generator directly to your breaker fuse box, as it could backfeed on power lines – sending electricity out toward restoration crews and possibly inflicting injuries.

▪ Never operate a charcoal grill or gas grill inside

the house.

▪ If you leave your home, turn off appliances that may have been on when the power went out, or turn off your main breaker.

▪ If you have any doubt about your home electrical system or are unsure of how to proceed, call a licensed electrician.

Ways to Report an Outage to Duke Energy ▪ We hope you don’t experience outages this storm season, but if you do, we want to make sure we can be in touch about restoration times and updates.

The Republican Read Local

Drew Bradley, the former starting catcher at Danville Community High School, plans to continue his baseball and academic career at Franklin College in the fall.

Franklin College competes in the Heartland Collegiate Athletic Conference at the Division three level of the NCAA. Bradley received similar offers to that of Franklin, including Indiana Tech, University of Saint Francis, Trine University, Cornerstone University, and Georgetown College.

He will be studying Business Management, laying a good foundation for the future. This push forward into higher education comes on the shoulders of Bradley’s love of baseball.

“Baseball has always been my passion, and it was always a huge goal of mine to play in college. That’s just something I’ve worked toward achieving my entire high school career because I knew I didn’t want to stop playing,” explained Bradley.

Franklin College is a school that is smaller in size, but Bradley was looking for just that, saying, “I was looking for a school that was smaller in size because I was coming from a smaller school. I thought

Franklin was a great fit because it was the size that I liked and it’s somewhere I think I will be able to do well both academically and athletically.”

Looking back on his four years at Danville, Bradley learned to work hard and always compete, no matter the circumstances. “Coach O’Neil went through tough times throughout my high school career, and he never gave up on any of us.” This taught Bradley that no matter the situation, it’s important to bring your best. He also credits many lessons to his parents, saying, “I would say my parents are a huge part of my academic and athletic success. My parents did everything for me and have always been supportive of me. I definitely wouldn’t be where I am without them.”

From these lessons, Bradley has learned that there is no replacement for hard work, or commitment, and he believes that many athletes need the same attributes. He offered, “Always work hard in the weight room, classroom, and on the field. Do things on your own that will make you better and keep your mind set on your goal,” as advice to aspiring college athletes. __________ These two lines are necessary to fill this column.

Volunteers Needed for SHIP

A rewarding volunteer program at Hendricks County Senior Services is looking for volunteers for SHIP, the State Health Insurance Program.

This program is a free health insurance counseling service for people with Medicare. This is provided by the Indiana Sate Department of insurance and funded by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services.

“Our SHIP counselors provide free impartial information to assist consumers in making decisions regarding their Medicare choices and questions” states Deanne Sanders-Below, coordinator of In-Home Services at Hendricks County Senior Services. “Ship is not affiliated with any insurance company or agency and does not sell insurance. They are staffed by a crew of volunteer counselors who have completed intensive training to offer objective assistance in complete confidence,” states Below.

SHIP is driven by volunteers who are committed to helping people with Medicare determine the best healthcare choices for their individual situations and to be good consumers of Medicare, Medicare Advantage, Medigap, Part D Drug Coverage, Long Term Care Financing and Low-Income Assistance Programs.

To become a SHIP counselor, you must complete a 30hour training, either virtually or in-person; complete volunteer shadowing, additional training in the spring and fall and have a desire to help Medicare Beneficiaries in your community.

If you are interested in an important and rewarding volunteer opportunity, please contact Deanne Sanders-Below at 317-910-5367 or the State’s SHIP office at 1-800-4524800. You can also visit www.medicare.in.gov and click the “Become a SHIP Volunteer” link for more information. ______________________________________________

Plainfield Police Host CommUNITY Meetings

Above, left: Residents met in a shelter house for a recent CommUNITY meeting. Right: Plainfield Chief Jared McKee chats with a Plainfield resident. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________

By Melissa Gibson For those that were a fan of the Coffee with a Cop program, the Plainfield Police Department has made a few changes in order to better reach the public and establish further connections with those they serve.

CommUNITY Conversations with Plainfield Police is a quarterly event, inviting all Plainfield residents to come and learn more about the department, news updates and new initiatives involving the PPD. “We wanted to evolve the Coffee with a Cop program because this way, we are going to the people versus them having to come to us,” said Deputy Chief Joe Aldridge.

“Our hope is to engage with the community and answer questions, hear concerns and be available for those that want to talk.”

In April, the department met at Hummel Park and in June, they met at the Friends Meeting Church. The next meeting is schedule for 10 a.m. Saturday, Aug. 21 at the Islamic Society of North America (6555 S. County Road 750 E., Plainfield). A fourth meeting will be scheduled for Oct. at the Guilford-Township Plainfield Library.

A panel of officers will begin the meeting with Chief Jared McKee delivering any new information to share. A public comment and question portion will be opened for the panel to address and afterward, both the public and the officers will enjoy light snacks and drinks, giving residents the chance to pull aside an officer and ask a question if they didn’t want to ask publicly.

Even if all questions are answered, the final portion of the meeting allows people to chat with their police department and form the relationships the department hopes for.

Loan Medical Equipment

Hendricks County Senior Services maintains a limited supply of medical equipment available for loan for residents of Hendricks County as part of the Danville Rotary Club Foundations, Inc’s Durable Medical Equipment Loan program.

Equipment is available on a first-come, first-serve basis. There is no charge for borrowing the equipment. Donations are graciously accepted to help offset the cost of maintaining the equipment. We offer walkers, wheelchairs, rollators, and canes. Call the Senior Center for more information at 317-7454303. __________

If you have a local news item you would like to contribute, you can give us a call at 317-745-2777, send your news by fax to 317-647-4341, or send an e-mail to therepublican@ sbcglobal.net.

More Beatles Sidewalk Art

The rain showers on Saturday washed away the most recent sidewalk chalk art by Allyson Avery in front of The Republican office at 6 E. Main. If you missed it, here’s a grayscale version. Watch for what she’ll do next!

Officers hope to engage in conversation with all business owners and residents of the Town of Plainfield. ____________________________________________________

“We want as many people to come to these meetings as possible, “Aldridge said. “We hear from a lot of business owners, minorities interested in sharing their experiences and some that just have questions about our line of work.

We had one young man say, ‘I was raised to believe that the K9’s were out to eat you.’ We were able to explain that out of more than 60 deployments with our K9’s only three resulted in a bite. Maybe we’re just able to ease your mind about something like that.”

If not able to attend the Aug. 21 meeting, watch the Plainfield Police Department’s Facebook page for the scheduled Oct. meeting. The department plans to schedule four more throughout 2022 at four new locations throughout the community.

Ed Kottkamp Inducted into Hendricks County Beef Cattle Association’s Hall of Fame

During the Beef Cattle show at the 2021 Hendricks County 4-H Fair, special recognition was given to Ed Kottkamp by the Hendricks County Beef Cattle Association. As Ed and his wife Marcia were escorted into the show ring, along with family members, the following proclamation was read: “Ed Kottkamp was born and raised in Indianapolis in the Garfield Park Area. He attended Tech High School.

His father owned an electric company and was contracted to do all the wiring for the Standard Oil gas stations that were going in across the state in the early 1950s.

The Kottkamp family owned a farm in Eminence near Frank Gash and would stay at the farm on the weekends. It was here that Ed gained his love for farming and Hereford cattle. He traveled all over the state with the Gash family going to county fair open shows and ending up at the Indiana State Fair helping them show Herefords in the summer.

He decided after graduation from high school to attend Purdue University to study agriculture.

He attended there two years and then served two years in the army before returning to graduate from Purdue.

In 1953 he and his father purchased 280 acres of wooded land in Belleville for him to start his farm and cattle business. They cleared the land of trees and built a pond and house barns on the land.

Ed married his wife, Marcia Kottkamp, in 1954 and they had two children Dale and Karen. In 1958, Ed began buying his first Hereford cattle and through the 1960’s continued to grow his herd. All through the 1970’s Ed sold 15-20 bulls a year from the farm.

Dale and Karen were 10 year 4-H members, exhibiting beef all 10 years, and their children were also 10 year 4-H members.

Dale continued to build on the genetics his dad started and the Kottkamps have shown state and national champion Hereford cattle.

Ed has been a Hendricks County Fair Board Member and was one of the founding members of the Hendricks County Cattlemen’s Association. He has also served on the Indiana Hereford Association Board as President and Secretary Treasurer with his wife Marcia.

In 2003 Ed had the opportunity to sell his remaining cow herd to a farm in Essex, New York and began his retirement still checking on the cows and show business every day.

It is with great honor that the Hendricks County Beef Cattle Association proudly welcomes ED KOTTKAMP into the Hall of Fame. We are grateful for the pioneering work that Ed has demonstrated in the field of Hendricks County Beef and we thank him for his contributions to the county and the association.”

Jamestown Christian Church adds another component to the community sports complex.

Installation was recently completed on a new batting cage at the Virgil Benge Community Sports Complex. The cage is 70’ long by 14’ wide and features a special mat for batters as well as protective screens for baseball and softball pitchers.

The Virgil Benge Community Sports Complex is located on the west side of the church campus. The Sports Complex features a combination baseball/softball field, newly renovated playground for children, sand volleyball court, two youth soccer fields, two basketball goals and the Witham Walking Trail that encompasses the entire property.

“We are hoping that this new addition will encourage people in our community to utilize our facilities”, said Senior Pastor Scott Ailes. “We are also doing our best to fulfill the vision that Virgil Benge had many years ago that this would be a ‘community property’ and that youth and adults alike could have access to various activities.”

This project was made possible by a generous donation from a local family who wanted to encourage the community to come out and enjoy the Virgil Benge Community Sports Complex.

Jamestown Christian Church is located at 900 N. Lebanon Street in Jamestown. For more information: contact the church at (765) 676-5182 or email info@jamestownchristianchurch.net or visit the church’s website at www.jamestownchristianchurch.net. ______________________________________________

IN RE THE ADOPTION OF ALYSSA MCKAY BURTON NOTICE TO Christopher Burton, Father NOTICE TO NAMED FATHER Christopher Burton, who has been named the father of the child born to Nicole Boden on 9/9/2006, is notified that a petition for adoption of the child was filed in the office of the clerk of Hendricks Superior Court, Danville, IN. If Christopher Burton seeks to contest the adoption of the child, he must file a motion to contest the adoption in accordance with IC31-19-10-1 in the above named court not later than thirty (30) days after the date of service of this notice. If Christopher Burton does not file a motion to contest the adoption within thirty (30) days after service of this notice, the above named court will hear and determine the petition for adoption. His consent will be irrevocably implied and he will lose his right to contest either the adoption or the validity of his implied consent to the adoption. He will lose his right to establish his paternity of the child, by affidavit or otherwise, in Indiana or any other jurisdiction. Nothing Nicole Boden or anyone else says to Christopher Burton relieves Christopher Burton of his obligations under this notice. Under Indiana law, a putative father is a person who is named as or claims that he may be the father of a child born out of wedlock but who has not yet been legally proven to be the child’s father. For purposes of this notice, Christopher Burton is a putative father under the laws in Indiana regarding adoption. This notice complies with IC 31-19-4-5 but does not exhaustively set forth a putative father’s legal obligations under the Indiana adoption statutes. A person being served with this notice should consult the Indiana adoption statutes.
