Canal Eatery serves broader goal

Dachshund Dash returns to Hoagland Days June 21

By Garth Snow

As the New Haven Kiwanis talk business over lunch, four topics become one: Canal Days, barbecue sandwiches, college scholarships, future leaders.

City Councilman and former Mayor Terry Werling adds another dimension — the awareness that motivates other students who are not among the fortunate recipients. “The background of the scholarships is to encourage the students to do better and go forward in college,� he said after a sandwich and coffee in the meeting room above Rack & Helen’s. “With that in mind, it gets more of the students interested.

But most years we have a whole lot more applicants than we do scholarships.�

That will be the case again this year. Werling, Mayor Terry McDonald and Jeff Showman will weigh 14 applications before awarding four

Spring Fling on the farm to beneďŹ t local charities

Bekah Bradley will sing at “a really cool event in a cool location, an old barn out in the middle of nowhere.�

She shares the billing with Terry Lee and the Rockaboogie Band at the Spring Fling charity event, taking the stage at 6:30 p.m. Saturday, May 17, at Bennett’s Auction & Party Barn, 17125 Killian Road, Harlan.

The New Haven recording artist will be fresh off a few hours’ rest after the seven-day, seven-stop Band of Women Tour. “I’m going to perform some old and new country songs and some originals from my album,� she said.

She recorded the self-titled “Bekah Bradley� at Sweetwater Sound in Fort Wayne. It’s available at bekahbradley.com and

other sites. “I’ve worked with [promoter] Dennis [Bennett] for a while, and I did the show last year,� she said. “I love doing fun gigs like that. You do so many bigger gigs, and you like all of them, but you like the smaller ones too.�

Bradley, who moved to New Haven from Ohio in December, said the bus trip from Lima to Louisville and back through Botkins, Ohio, is “one of my busy weeks.�

Bradley was a state winner and ďŹ nished ďŹ fth in the nation in the Texaco Country Roundup. “She’s a great entertainer, and just needs a break,â€? said Bennett, who is promoting the Harlan event and owns the farm where it will be held.

Bennett described Terry Lee and the Rockaboogie Band as “a full band, with a fantastic sound.�

Every dog has its day, and wiener dogs will have theirs Saturday afternoon at Hoagland Days. The festival runs Thursday through Saturday, July 19-21.

Dachshund owners may bring their four-legged friends to Harlan Community Park at 4 p.m. to share in the newest event in Hoagland’s annual celebration. The Dachshund Dash is very popular, said Annie Counterman, a festival co-chairwoman.

Dog owners may sign up by calling 820-3435, or by emailing klperry567@ yahoo.com.

The kiddie tractor pull also will return this year, after taking a break in 2013. That event also will be held Saturday afternoon. Counterman and co-chairwoman Sally Holle said a ďŹ nal events schedule, an entertainment bill, and the selection of the parade grand marshal

will be posted on the Hoagland Area Advancement Association’s website, hoaglandin.com.

Or visit Hoagland Days Fair on Facebook.

Candidates for queen, prince and princess will be introduced on opening night. New this year is the royal queen contest, for senior ladies from Hoagland. Winners in all categories will be decided by the number of rafe tickets they sell.

The HAAA will offer a ďŹ sh and tenderloin dinner Friday night. The prince and princess will be crowned that evening, and the demolition derby will begin.

Saturday features the parade, silent auction, talent show, wine tasting, the HAAA’s barbecue chicken dinner and another night of the demolition derby. The festival ends with the crowning of the queen and royal queen, merchants drawings and See DASH, Page A4

Faith UCC Church plans graceful farewell

By Garth Snow

About preschool

gsnow@kpcmedia.com

Faith United Church of Christ plans to end its story with dignity.

The church at 10707 Coldwater Road will say goodbye to 46 years of ministry with a final service at 10 a.m. Sunday, June 15.

Church historian Sheryl Stebbins busied herself recently sorting files, marriage records and black-and-white photos from the church archives.

“My grandkids were baptized here and they’re going to preschool here,” said Stebbins, who has been associated with the church for about 10 years.

“It’s a grieving process.”

“Our membership is down and we couldn’t afford the building,” she explained.

A nearby church has signed a short-term lease on the building. Efforts to sell the building continue.

As the story ends, though, Faith parishioners want to say goodbye with grace.

“We’re going through all the papers and the pictures,” Stebbins said.

“We want to leave a legacy that this church meant something to a lot of people for a long time.

So we want to leave it meaningful and do honor

The Faith United Church of Christ Preschool plans to continue into a 44th year. “Though the church is finishing their ministry, the preschool will be here next year, continuing with another church,” said preschool director Judy Berggren. Enrollment has grown to about 120 students. Contact her at faithpreschool@frontier. com.

A photo from the Faith United Church of Christ archives shows members of the Mission Church Steering Committee in 1968. They are: (kneeling) the Rev. Darrell Kroemer, chairman, from St. John’s Church; (standing, from left) the Rev. John Carroccio, from Plymouth Church; the Rev. James Peters, chairman of the Church Extension Northeast Association; the Rev. Walter Pohler, from Grace Church; and the Rev. Willard Zinke, from Salem Church.

to the church.”

“We hope to scan a lot of the pictures, especially confirmations and baptisms, on a disc,” Stebbins said. Copies will be made available to parishioners. Stebbins will send a copy to the Indiana-Kentucky Conference of the United Church of Christ.

Other records will be donated to a library or historical society.

Among them will be a

well preserved photo from 1968, showing four pastors and a church representative who helped to establish the church.

In that picture, the Rev. Darrell Kroemer of St. John’s United Church of Christ hammers a nail into the church sign on Coldwater Road.

Much has changed since that nail was driven four and a half decades ago.

the sign are gone. The first church building was sold to make way for the Kroger parking lot.

The present building was constructed in 1997, and sits farther from Coldwater Road. In fact, it’s just as easy to reach the church by driving between the Kroger and Hallmark stores facing Dupont Road.

“This location was chosen as the result of

the new housing addition across Coldwater Road, Pine Valley, and the projection of future growth for this community,” reads a history prepared for the 25th anniversary celebration in 1993. “Faith had a distinct advantage as the first of several new churches in the area.”

By the 10th anniversary in 1978, membership had grown to more than 300 parishioners.

Church Council President Corinne Toth hopes many of that number will hear about the final service. “We want all the former parishioners to know they’re welcome back,” she said.

The church no longer has a pastor, but will continue services the first Sunday of each month until the final service, June 15. Toth said the church hopes to have the building sold by that date.

Toth said she has been with the church for five years, which makes her “a baby” in comparison

to many members. “There are several who have been here for years and years, especially our organist [Marilyn Ambrose],” she said.

Stebbins and Toth said they know of no movement for a core group to affiliate with another church.

“We’ve all kind of splintered and we’re going our own paths,” Stebbins said.

The area that once was home to one church now has many, serving neighborhoods whose boundaries are blurred by development. Toth said she will choose her new church based on faith, not geography. And that church will embrace the same principles that once brought her to Faith.

She described the congregation’s difficult decision succinctly.

“Financial.”

She blames no one.

“People through the years, they have come in here and they did their best,” she said.

Phyllis J. Pond Memorial Highway unveiled Gov. Mike Pence stood with the Pond family as they unveiled the “Phyllis J. Pond Memorial Highway� sign in New Haven.

Two signs have been placed by the Indiana Department of Transportation designating U.S. 24, from U.S. 30 east of New Haven to the Indiana/Ohio State Line, as the Phyllis J. Pond Memorial Highway. “Thanks to Rep. Pond’s efforts, today U.S. 24 has been transformed from a winding two-lane, rural highway to a new four-lane, limited access expressway that provides economic development opportunities from Fort Wayne to

the Port of Toledo. The new roadway improves access and safety across northern Indiana and northern Ohio,� Pence said.

During the 2014 General Assembly, a concurrent resolution was passed to name an 11-mile portion of the new U.S. 24 after the late Rep. Phyllis J. Pond, who passed away in September 2013. She provided more than three decades of service in the Indiana House of Representatives.

Pence also presented George Pond, Phyllis’s husband, with the resolution. He also presented smaller versions of the memorial signs to son, William, and wife, Cami,

of Fort Wayne; son, Doug Pond, of Indianapolis; and daughter, Jean Pond Grasmick, of Indianapolis. “As people travel the road and see the signs, it will bring a memory of Mom to so many,� said William Pond. “She truly loved the people of her district, her legislative colleagues and staff; and even this time last year could name every kindergarten student she had in 37 years of teaching.� “She was a legend for her sage understanding of the legislative process, the context and history of the issues and fairness for all sides,� he said.

New Haven Farmers Markets return in June The New Haven Farmers Market opens from 4-7 p.m.

Amusement rides and a food court will be available throughout the festival. A mechanical bull has been added to the adult beverages tent Friday evening. Other attractions include the merchants tent and bingo. Entertainment will be offered each evening; details have yet to be determined.

All proceeds support the park and pavilion and the Hoagland Youth League, which offers softball, baseball, T-ball and lob-ball for kids. Men’s teams also occupy the four diamonds some evenings. “There’s a game down there about every night it seems,�

Holle said.

This year’s festival theme is “Memories Made in Hoagland.�

The festival takes months of planning, said Counterman, who has been involved with the project about six years.

About 50 people serve in one capacity or another. “We kind of lay low the last part of the year and then we get started again in January, making plans and getting organized,�

Counterman said.

Those plans continued to fall into place one month before the festival.

A festival guide book will garner important income for the festival, Holle said.

pionship to Fort Wayne, Aug. 25-31, at Sycamore Hills Golf Club.

Scholarship Henderson candidates interviewed at Fort Wayne Country Club. Selection was based on four criteria: a strong caddie record, excellent academics, demonstrated ďŹ nancial need, and outstanding character. “Their academic excellence and involvement in a cross-section of civic organizations reects the seless nature of what it means to be an Evans Scholar,â€? said John Kaczkowski, president and CEO of the Western Golf Association.

The WGA has administered the Chick Evans Scholarship Program through the Evans Scholars Foundation since its founding by famed Chicago amateur golfer Charles “Chick�

Evans Jr., in 1930.

Most of the Indiana recipients will attend Indiana University in Bloomington or Purdue University in West Lafayette, where they will live in the Evans

Scholarship House.

Currently, 840 caddies are enrolled in colleges across the nation as Evans Scholars, including 60 at Indiana and 40 at Purdue. More than 9,800 caddies have graduated as Evans Scholars, including 573 from Indiana University and 423 from Purdue.

Scholarship funds come primarily from contributions by more than 35,000 WGA Evans Scholars Par Club members across the country. Evans Scholars alumni donate more than $4 million annually, and all proceeds from the Hotel Fitness Championship, the ďŹ rst of four Web.com Tour ďŹ nals events which allow golfers to compete for 50 PGA Tour Cards, are donated to Evans Scholars.

The WGA conducts four national golf championships: The BMW Championship on the PGA Tour, the Hotel Fitness Championship on the Web.com Tour and the Western Amateur and the Western Junior.

“It helps to keep the club’s name in people’s minds,” said Mayor McDonald. “We go to the awards ceremony at the high school, along with all the other scholarships that are happening. It’s not just about the money.

We also remind kids that civic engagement is really important. And almost everyone that we will interview, as in the past, they are young men and women engaged in the life of their school and in their community.”

“Many of them do hundreds and hundreds of hours of community service during their four years in high school,” the mayor said. “Terry [Werling] and I both being in government, we know the importance of active citizenship. When people are engaged in their communities, it makes their communities stronger. It’s been our experience that these are engaged young people, and they’re trying to better themselves and it’s a privilege to help them a little bit.”

Showman, the third scholarship committee member, serves as the club’s coordinator with the Kiwanis’ high school partners, the Key Club.

Showman, who works on the project almost

Showman has been a Kiwanis member and has supported the food tent for four years. “It’s a long process,” he said. “One day runs into the next.

But you do your regular job and then your volunteer work, and then the weekend and the parade.”

So the discussion of portion sizes, prices, and hats and aprons was part of a larger conversation.

“We have to look at it from a marketing standpoint,” Showman said.

“We need to do whatever we can to attract as many people as we can to maximize the donations and the money that we spend on scholarships.”

Even the Kiwanis have lost track of how long they’ve been sharing the food tent at Canal Days.

Ollie Brueck said it’s been at least 20 years.

McDonald agreed. “My youngest is 24, and we were buying pizza from the New Haven Kiwanis when he was just 2 or 3 years old,” he said.

“I’ve been married 30 years, and I’m sure you were doing this when I was in high school,”

Showman said.

The community involvement predates even the food tent, Brueck said. “When we started in Kiwanis, we went around during the summer and trimmed bushes and raked the leaves,” he said. “Then we went out and got muskmelons and sold them on the corner.”

Brueck told club members that profits have been running about $2,000 a year. He said that can mean a $500 matching grant from Thrivent Financial for Lutherans.

The Kiwanis have seen some of the scholarship youth become local leaders, and they look forward to some of those leaders becoming Kiwanis.

Meanwhile, they will share lunch and ideals on the first and third Tuesdays of each month. And they will share the Canal Eatery Food Tent with five other local organizations and businesses working to improve the community in their own ways.

Other vendors will sell treats from trailers parked elsewhere in downtown New Haven.

But the tent in Schnelker Park has an advantage — a chance to sit and relax. And to create leaders.

hog roast,” Bennett said.

“Two local farmers, brothers, donate the hogs.

The farmers don’t want to be recognized in any way.”

“What’s real important is getting people there to our benefit auction, because that’s where we’re going to make most of our money,” he said.

Donated and purchased auction items include household goods, sporting goods, golf packages and

more.

Beyond that, “it’s just a good time for all the neighbors in the Grabill area and Woodburn,” he said.

Proceeds will be divided among A Hope Center, Christian Community Health Care, and Harlan Christian Youth Center.

This is the third year of the Spring Fling, Bennett said. Last year’s event drew more than

200 people. He expects a much larger display of cars and trucks this year. “We have a fellow handing out fliers at nine shows before ours,” he said.

Adults pay $17.50 for the hog roast and stage show. For ages 16 and under, the cost is $12.50.

To buy tickets, contact Bennett at 433-2159 or dennisbennett1@ peoplepc.com. Tickets are limited, he said.

â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Step of faithâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; to reveal church among trees

By Garth Snow gsnow@kpcmedia.com

Woodview Church of God plans to explore its future on Stand Up Sunday on June 1. â&#x20AC;&#x153;I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t think people realize weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re back there,â&#x20AC;? said Cathy Burris, the church treasurer. Indeed, drivers would need to take their eyes off Getz Road to stare east through the wooded, 5-acre property to see the congregationâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s home on the former sheep farm.

The church has served from 1825 Getz Road since 1973. The buildingâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s odd shape reďŹ&#x201A;ects the multiple remodeling projects. The building is in poor condition and another ďŹ x-up is not an option, said the Rev. Joe Shouse, who came to Woodview as pastor in 2012.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Our theme song for our building fund is â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Step Into the Water,â&#x20AC;&#x2122;â&#x20AC;? Shouse said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;There is a line in that song that says â&#x20AC;&#x2DC;Step into the water, wade out a little bit deeper, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s time we the people stand up for what is right.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;With that in mind, we are calling June 1 Stand Up Sunday and we are encouraging the congregation to do what is right by standing up together and take a step of faith and wade out a little bit deeper and give to the building fund on this very special day.â&#x20AC;?

The blacktop drive winds through oak and hickory trees that ďŹ t well with the churchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s name. The trees outnumber the 22 parking spaces almost 3-to-1. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are a church of about 30 â&#x20AC;&#x201D; very small â&#x20AC;&#x201D; but we are committed to moving forward and serving our community,â&#x20AC;? the pastor

Shouse said in a news release.

Everyone is invited to the church service. To make reservations for the banquet, call Shouse at 446-4751. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s deteriorated to the point where it becomes more and more overwhelming, where weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re saying itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not going to be

kind of building that will allow us to reach out and make that difference. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Recently we had a block party and invited the residents of an entire apartment complex. We realized at that time we were not equipped to do the ministry we desire to do.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;We really are at a preliminary point in this endeavor,â&#x20AC;? he said in an email. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Excited about their new vision, the congregation will continue to worship, pray and work together to reach their goal.â&#x20AC;?

For the moment, the church has only the resolve to move forward, and the conďŹ dence that the details will fall into place after June 1. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We have talked about moving the new building up close to the street, thinking that might be a better presence in the community,â&#x20AC;? Burris said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re all very excited. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a big project. Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;ve got a long way to go, but weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re excited. â&#x20AC;&#x153;We are just stepping out in faith to see where the Lord leads us.â&#x20AC;?

Pastor Alvin Beggs served as the churchâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s ďŹ rst pastor, followed by his son Dwayne. Others served short-term pastorates. The Rev. Steve Hildebrand, who retired in 2012, served as pastor for 14 years.

Shouse and his wife, Denise, live in Haviland, Ohio. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Denise and I have been in ministry for 35 years and have pastored Church of God congregations in Indiana, Ohio and Michigan,â&#x20AC;? Shouse said.

He is a graduate of Anderson University.

The Church of God has 2,700 congregations in the United States, with a missionary effort in more than 90 countries. Its general headquarters is in Anderson, Ind.

The Tri State Antique Points Pullers held their annual awards banquet April 27 at the Monroeville Community Park.

The Pullers are based out of Arcola and cover Indiana, Ohio and Michigan. Kevin Banet, president and head coordinator, served as master of ceremonies at the banquet, which drew more than 60 people representing all three states.

After a potluck dinner, awards were presented.

Class champions in all the classes ranging from 3,500 pounds on up to and including 10,000 pounds were awarded plaques along with the traditional winners jacket. The second and third placings were also awarded plaques. There were ďŹ ve special awards, consisting of Light Weight Puller of the Year,

Heavy Weight Puller of the Year, Member of the Year, Sportsman of the Year, and Pull of the year.

Bill Hand of near Huntertown was awarded the Member of the Year plaque. Larry Hille from Arcola was voted the Sportsman of the Year.

The Carroll High School FFA received top honors for Pull of the Year. This was considered quite a feat for the FFA, because the pull was postponed due to wet grounds at Arcola and had to be moved from Arcola in September to the SpringďŹ eld Community Park in New Haven at the end of October. On a less than 50-degree day, the pull had 194 entries.

Also awarded was the traditional Hall of Fame award. Hand was this yearâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s winner. The title sponsors for 2013 were Dave Schaefer Farms,

Engine 765 to retrace route from Detroit

By Ryan Schnurr rschnurr@kpcmedia.com

On July 12 and 13, steam locomotive No. 765 will come rolling into downtown Fort Wayne on the elevated railroad overpass next to Headwaters Park — just like it did for the first time almost 60 years before.

Fort Wayne’s historic steam locomotive will be running passengers on round trips from Detroit to Fort Wayne for the Three Rivers Festival this year, following the route of a train that was known as the Detroit Arrow.

“In the past, we’ve operated trips out of Fort Wayne during the festival, but we really wanted to return to the Detroit line and bring folks to Fort Wayne,” said Kelly Lynch, communi-

Volunteers ready steam locomotive No. 765 for its return trip to Fort Wayne during a layover on its round-trip excursion o Lafayette last year.

cations director for the Fort Wayne Railroad Historical Society. “We’ll be re-tracing the route

between Detroit and Fort Wayne in much the same way that our Wabash Cannonball train retraced

the route between Fort Wayne and Lafayette [last fall].”

“This is the first

in-bound steam excursion to Fort Wayne since the 1990s and Detroit’s first steam excursion trip since 1994,” he added. “It’s 20 years to the weekend.”

The train will depart Detroit’s Allen Park each morning at 8 a.m. and arrive in Fort Wayne at noon. After a four-hour layover, during which passengers can experience Fort Wayne’s Three Rivers Festival and spend time at other downtown destinations, the train will head back north.

Tickets start at $119, with discounts for children and railroad historical society members.

The arrival on the overpass on the north end of downtown will be a homecoming of sorts for “the 765,” as it’s affectionately called. Built

in 1944, it was the first engine to cross that very elevated rail line when it was completed in 1955.

“The elevation is a very big stage for us to present the 765 to the city,” Lynch said.

Though most of the recent trips on the 765 originated in Fort Wayne, Lynch said that it was important to the Fort Wayne Railroad Historical Society to have travelers come to Fort Wayne this time.

“The 765 is an extremely unique cultural asset and tourist attraction … and it’s our own to celebrate and benefit from,” he said. “The world goes where the 765 is, and its home is right here in Fort Wayne.”

Tickets are on sale at fortwaynerailroad.org/ detroit-arrow.

Lutheran Life boxing program fights Parkinson’s

By Peter Ambrose pambrose@kpcmedia.com

The gym, in its drab appearance, resembles those from the best boxing movies. Gritty. Simple.

Utilitarian. Nothing too fancy.

The kind of place that forges underdogs into champions.

Lutheran Life Villages’ retirement community on South Anthony Boulevard in Fort Wayne held a ribbon-cutting ceremony April 9 as part of Parkinson’s Awareness Month to mark a new partnership with Rock Steady Boxing, a nonprofit center in Indianapolis

dedicated to helping people with Parkinson’s overcome their symptoms by applying old-school boxing training methods.

The disease pulls no punches, so in equal response, Rock Steady Boxing gives the afflicted a chance to strike back, to find a measure of peace and prolong their normalcy.

The local program looks old school, with a gym set up in a converted storage room in Lutheran Life’s basement. Fluorescent lights illuminate dark gray stone walls.

New punching bags line one side of the room, and speed bags take up space

nearby. On the other end, a few tables have been set up, equipment is stacked and a newly built wooden cubby holds some gear.

Motivational phrases and the blue-and-gold Rock Steady Boxing logo adorn the walls.

During one recent evening session, four participants trained with Lutheran Life wellness coordinator and honorary head coach Rachael Dettling. A framed picture of Muhammad Ali, looking exhausted after a 1965 bout with Sonny Liston, stared down at them. Ali, who has suffered from Parkinson’s for years, and posters

of boxing movies past are invoked to provide encouragement. Classic-rock songs like “Eye of the Tiger” and “Don’t Stop Believin’” echoed off the concrete walls.

Dettling barked instructions during the routines, and the class roared in response. They focused on the moment — feeling the impact of their fists on a punching bag or the burn in their thighs from doing squats.

Vicky Pope, who was diagnosed last year, drove from her home in Roanoke for her third class.

“I’m noticing benefits so far,” she said.

Bob Craven, 62, who also was diagnosed a year ago, needs assistance from staff and a walker.

Though his mobility is limited, he doesn’t back down. He gives as much as his body can deliver.

“There are days that are good, and there are days you have to work harder,” he said. “But you gotta persist.”

Craven said he used to be an athlete and a guitar player before he was stricken with Parkinson’s. The disorder has taxed him physically and mentally, but the program offers an outlet for the frustration.

“Hitting that bag is just about as close as hitting something,” he said.

Dettling said the workout isn’t just dedicated to alleviating the physical symptoms of Parkinson’s but the emotional toll as well.

“It’s a life-changing diagnosis that can lead some people to become depressed,” she said.

“What we try to do with this program is to kind of give them back their independence by empowering them.”

Parkinson’s is a chronic

and progressive neurodegenerative disease that saps the affected person’s motor functions, causing a range of bodily tremors, rigidity, movement problems, loss of balance and speech issues.

According to the National Parkinson’s Foundation, about 1 million Americans live with the disorder. It’s most prevalent among those older than 60, but also affects younger groups. The symptoms can vary from case to case, affecting some more severely than others during the disease’s progression.

While incurable, Parkinson’s can be treated with medications, therapy and exercise. The NPF’s website lists research showing how rigorous exercise can be an effective treatment in helping patients regain some movement control and speed.

That’s where Rock Steady Boxing comes in.

Founded in 2006 in Indianapolis by former Marion County Prosecutor Scott Newman after he was diagnosed with Parkinson’s, the organization developed an

intense, noncontact fitness program to counter the disease’s symptoms. The traditional boxing training regimens provide a fullbody workout, specifically focusing on flexibility, strength, speed and especially balance.

Dettling, a recreational therapist who has worked in neurological rehabilitation, said routines can vary, but the classes follow a similar structure of warm-ups, stretching, upper- and lower-body and core work, boxing activities and cool-downs.

Lutheran Life Villages is Rock Steady Boxing’s first affiliate in the Fort Wayne area. The organization has other affiliations in several cities nationwide.

As an affiliate, Lutheran Life Village pays a nominal annual fee and in return receives support and resources from Rock Steady Boxing.

Lutheran Life Villages offers five 90-minute classes a week, with morning and evening sessions on Tuesdays and Thursdays and a Saturday morning session. They cost is $12 a class, or $60 a month for unlimited classes.

Health center offers care to underserved

By Peter Ambrose pambrose@kpcmedia

On a patch of soil in the southeast area of Fort Wayne rises a plain, unassuming structure that may just represent the future of health care in northeast Indiana. And like a delicate spring bud, this building will receive careful nurturing because of what it means to the well-being of the surrounding community.

Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s the new Parkview Neighborhood Health Center, which will bring direct medical services to an area of the city experts have diagnosed as long deserving such attention.

The facility ofďŹ cially opened March 4, following the culmination of years of planning, a partnership forged by Parkview Health and Neighborhood Health Clinics and a breathtaking construction adventure. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is so much more than just a primary care ofďŹ ce, so much more than just a clinic,â&#x20AC;? said Ben Miles, chief operating ofďŹ cer of Parkview Hospital and AfďŹ liates. â&#x20AC;&#x153;For this portion of our community, it is going to be outreach and education. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be health. Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s going to be dental. Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s so much one-stop-shop-type philosophy.â&#x20AC;?

Under their collaboration, Parkview owns the center on East Paulding Road near Hessen Cassel Road, and leases about two-thirds of the 7,500 square feet of space to Neighborhood Health Clinics. The nonproďŹ t organization provides the primary care.

NHC President and CEO Mary Haupert said residents who for years have sorely lacked adequate and convenient access to medical care on the south side of Fort Wayne can now take advantage of the family-practice, OBGYN and pediatric services as well as immunizations the clinic offers.

She believes the number of patients the clinic helps will rise gradually and eventually reach into the thousands. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Weâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;re hoping within ďŹ ve years to be serving about 5,000,â&#x20AC;? she said.

Most forms of insurance are accepted. And since NHC

specializes in treating low-income patients, the group helps the uninsured by applying a sliding fee based on income and household size.

The center, as a branch of NHCâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s headquarters on South Calhoun Street, is only open three days a week for right now, staffed by a nurse practitioner, two nurses and a front-desk attendant. But thatâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s about to change soon with services expanding over the next year.

Haupert said the clinic is expected to operate full time, ďŹ ve days a week, starting in July when a physician from North Dakota, Dr. George Stenger, moves to Fort Wayne and opens a family practice at the center under a contract with NHC. A new nurse and another front-desk attendant would be hired to help out.

Plans then call for adding Women, Infants and Children nutritional services in October, meaning the addition of more staff. And by early 2015, general dental services are set to become available with a dentist and a dental hygienist on site.

There still will be room to grow after that. Haupert said the facility was built with nine medical exam rooms,

leaving plenty of space to add more medical providers if need be.

The clinical services fulďŹ ll one of the two key components of what the center offers. The other comes from Parkview Health itself, as its Center for Healthy Living is set to open this month in the building in an effort to extend the health networkâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mission to promote a better quality of life among residents.

Led by manager Connie Kerrigan, Healthy Living staff will focus on education, wellness initiatives, preventive care and support tailored to the areaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s most pressing needs. Programs in the works include smoking cessation, an asthma camp, safe sleep â&#x20AC;&#x201D; information on creating safer sleeping environments for infants â&#x20AC;&#x201D; and cooking classes to encourage more nutritious diets.

Basically, Parkview aims to open some eyes and give people who visit the center tools they can use to improve their health, thus cutting their risk of needing treatment later for costly diseases or conditions. â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is about quality of life, too,â&#x20AC;? Miles said. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s not just doing for someone, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s helping to train me so I can do it for myself.â&#x20AC;?

Assisting people in taking greater control over their own well-being describes Sue Ehingerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s mission as Parkviewâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s newly minted chief experience ofďŹ cer. She was a driving force behind the strategy that led to the health centerâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s development.

As the center combines treatment of ailments and illnesses with outreach for encouraging healthier living, Ehinger can envision Parkview possibly adding similar operations in the region as needed.

Or as Haupert summed it up: â&#x20AC;&#x153;The community probably doesnâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t need another hospital.â&#x20AC;?

Her focus remains on the cityâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s southeast side. She described health care there as like a letter â&#x20AC;&#x153;C,â&#x20AC;? with medical services mainly situated on the northeast, northwest and southwest sides, while the southeast and central areas have lacked many of those resources.

As a result, the federal government has deemed the south side medically underserved for years.

â&#x20AC;&#x153;Like any student probably worries, I was not sure if I would be able to handle college. I was frightened of the large campus, and intimidated by the professors. As of now, all of these worries are gone and I feel a sense of relief knowing that I will not have to worry about these things next fall as a full-time freshman.â&#x20AC;? â&#x20AC;&#x153;Being able to take the classes that I have this year has brought me so much closer to my goals.

I was able to complete 17 credit hours during my last year in high school. â&#x20AC;Ś This has given me a big advantage for going to college full time.â&#x20AC;?

Kate’s Kart was founded in 2008 by the Layman family in memory of their daughter, Katherine Anne Layman (affectionately known to family and friends as “Baby Kate”). In just over five years, the organization has grown to service 16 area hospitals, plus several pediatric offices. More than 90 volunteers collect, count, sort, label, stock and distribute books.

To date, Kate’s Kart has handed out more than 75,000 new books to hospitalized children. For details, visit KatesKart.org.
