Between the banks: a canoe trip down the Wabash River by Eric Stearley and Mary Fuson-Stearley eric@thepaperofwabash.com

Editor’s note: On June 6, my wife and I embarked on a nine-day canoe trip down the Wabash River to Terre Haute. This is the first of a two-part account of the journey. While it’s a most unusual departure from traditional, third-person news reporting, I couldn’t help but share our experience on a river so integral to our county’s history. We also hope that by showcasing the river as a unique recreational experience, we can bring awareness to the value of this natural resource. We enjoyed every aspect of our trip and we hope you enjoy our story.

“The Wabash River is Indiana’s best kept secret. Most people only notice it when it floods. Other times it is something that passes under the bridges we drive, without appreciating the beauty and challenges this mighty river has to offer.” These words open the preface to Jerry Hay’s Wabash River Guidebook. A selfproclaimed “riverlorian,” Hay has traveled the length of the Wabash River and many others, scouting, recording, and mapping the waterway. His travels played a key role in inspiring our trip down Indiana’s state river. The plan was simple. My wife, Mary, and I would launch a canoe from the boat ramp in downtown Wabash, traveling 187 river miles to our destination, Fairbanks Park in Terre Haute. While the plan may

Our trip would last nine days and take us nearly 200 miles to our destination in her hometown of Terre Haute. (photo by Eric Stearley) have been simple, its execution was less so. We didn’t know what we would encounter along the way, but we were sure it would be an adventure. The Wabash has been an important river since its formation following the last ice age. The glacier responsible for

making northern Indiana flat eventually melted, first carving the river that now drains two-thirds of Indiana’s 92 counties. When the prehistoric Lake Maumee breached a weak spot in the Ft. Wayne Moraine, the rapid release of water carved a massive river valley through

the state. The river that remained would become an important transportation route for Native Americans and, eventually, French fur traders traveling between present day Canada and New Orleans. (continued on page 6)

“Dash in the Bash” runs for a second year

“DASH IN THE BASH” participants begin the 5K race which took them through the city of Wabash on June 21. (photo by Adam Smith)

By Adam Smith While many may have found the summer solstice as a time to relax, some rose early and laced up their running shoes to be a part of the “Dash in the Bash” hosted by Wabash County YMCA. The race took place at 8:30 a.m. on Saturday, June 21. This is the second year that the race has been held in Historic Downtown Wabash and it is well on its way to becoming a local tradition. The main event of the “Dash in the Bash” was a 5-kilometer race that invited all participants to either walk or run a course that winds its way through the hilly landscape of Downtown Wabash. The Fort Wayne Track Club was present to time the race. They used a method of timing called “chip timing”. The runners had to wear a computer chip on their shoes that, when they ran across the mats at the finish line, recorded a precise time.

The overall winners for the males and females were Caleb Augustus and Erica Cordes. They will have a brick created with their names on it to be placed in the walkway in front of the Wabash County YMCA alongside last year’s winners and all of the donors who made the facility possible. Caleb completed the race in 16 minutes and 42 seconds. His time beat the record set last year for fastest time by Chris LaFree who ran the race in 17 minutes and 21 seconds. Erica completed the race with a time of 18 minutes and 30 seconds. She beat the time received by last year’s overall female winner, Brianna Martinez, of 19 minutes and 49 seconds. Both young and old were present to participate in the race, the proceeds of which were donated to the Wabash County Health Initiative. The Health Initiative is striving to promote physical activity, better nutrition, and a tobacco(continued on page 6)

of the Wabash. Maps included the lower Ohio River as part of the Wabash until the middle of the 18th Century. Today, the Wabash River cuts a 500-mile course from the headwaters in Ft. Recovery, Ohio to its confluence with the Ohio River. The river’s name has a history of its own. According to the North Manchester Historical Society, some form of the name “Wabash” can be traced back to 950 A.D when Algonquian speaking Native Americans arrived in the region. The Miami-Illinois name was “waapaahshiiki.” Broken into its com-

ponent parts, the name means “it (ki) shines (aahshii) white (waap),” likely named for the white limestone river bottom. Today, the shining limestone can only be seen in select areas under certain conditions, such as in Logansport when the river is low. The modern name is an English spelling of the French interpretation “Ouabache,” first penned by explorer Robert de La Salle and included in a 1684 map of the area. A state park in Wells County retains the French spelling. I suppose it’s natural for someone to wonder about traveling down the river for which his hometown was named. It is, after all, a natural conveyor belt of water flowing slowly to the Ohio River and into the Mississippi River before merging with salt water in the Gulf of Mexico. For us, it was a dream that began many years ago. Inspired equally

by Mark Twain’s writing and trips by Bruce Nelson, who paddled the length of the Mississippi solo, we sought a river adventure of our own. Though I once envisioned a solo journey down the river, looking back on it, I can say that it would have been much more difficult and not nearly as much fun without my wife and travel companion. In addition to having much more experience camping and backpacking than I have, she may be the only person I can keep a conversation going with for nine days. She can also hold her own when it comes to paddling up and down the river, an important consideration on a journey of this length. While the river flows for more than 500 miles, our trip would not be quite that long. In our case, the stopping point was as obvious as the starting point, as my wife, Mary, is a Terre Haute native. This also fell in line with our timeframe: we had nine days for the trip, and by our calculation, that would be just enough time. In addition to the sense of adventure we were seeking, we hoped to

learn about the river and its history. Through our research during and preceding the trip, it became apparent just how important river travel was to the development of Indiana as we know it. Wabash County, in particular, owes its early settlement to the river, in particular, the canal boats that traversed it. The catalyst in turning Indiana from frontier to settled farmland was the building of the Wabash-Erie Canal. Half a century after gaining independence from the British, the United States government was pushing for the development of the Northwest Territory. In order to do so, they needed a transportation link between Lake Erie and the Mississippi River. In 1823, Congress authorized the State of Indiana (then just 7 years old) to survey and mark the route of a canal to connect the waterways. Indiana appointed commissioners to the project, and three years later, Colonel John Tipton met with Miami and Potawatomi representatives in Wabash. The meeting resulted

in two treaties: the first opened up northern Indiana to settlement, while the second allowed for the building of a canal. Construction began in 1832, the year before Wabash County was established, with the canal reaching Logansport by 1837, Lafayette by 1843, and Terre Haute by 1848. The artificial waterway made the large-scale transportation of people and products via large canal boats to newly founded river towns possible. The Wabash County Museum has a permanent exhibit dedicated to life on a canal boat. The canal was the state’s lifeline during the middle of the 19th century, but its prominence was short lived. Engineering problems plagued the canal and upkeep was expensive. Just 30 years after the treaty signing in Wabash, the first train crossed a newly laid railroad through the city. As railroads began to crisscross the country, the canal became obsolete and fell out of service. The last recorded docking of a canal boat was in Huntington in 1874. Today, the canal (continued on page 27)

free lifestyle in the Wabash area. Event organizer Chris Sloane says that an important aspect of the race is to “engage the community in a healthy activity.” Runner Danielle Smith, a 5k race veteran, agrees and says she really enjoys that “the race is local and the people cheering you on are people you know.” There were prizes awarded to the winners of each age division in the male and female categories. Everyone who was registered to run in the race was also entered into a raffle for the chance to win a door prize. Those registered also received a Dri-Fit tshirt for their participation. Before the runners even got to their marks, the Wabash County YMCA began

a different aspect of the event: a pancake breakfast. Sponsored by Miller’s Merry Manor, for just five dollars, a person could get all the pancakes that they could possibly eat. There was also a mile-long “fun run” for the children who had come. A large number of these kids were a part of the SPARK camp at the YMCA. The purpose of the camp is to help children retain what they have learned in school over the summer, promote physical well-being, and fight a growing epidemic of childhood obesity. However, some of those in attendance were just there to soak up the atmosphere, dance to the music being played over the loudspeakers, and enjoy being with others from the community. With the

event taking place right downtown, it was an open invitation for attendees to wander around a little and see what the city of Wabash has to offer. Sloane says that part of what makes this event special compared to others like it is that, while there is the seriousness of the race, it’s also about having fun. “It’s an experience, not just an event,” he added. Sloane hopes that race attendance will continue to increase in the years to come. He wants to thank the event volunteers and sponsors who made it possible.

“Rodger has seen six different owners of the company over his 50 years here,” Steve Edris, director and general manager of Owens Corning Thermafiber told The Paper. “He has seen a lot of change with the company, but with Rodger, each day, he’s here; he shows up and is usually one of the first ones here. You never hear problems with him. He’s been a very dependable employee.” Six different owners is only part of the changes Rapp has seen through his 50 years at the company. Position changes and technological changes have improved the productivity of his job over the years. Rapp has worked in Thermafiber’s office since he started. He has held positions in cost accounting and billing, but he also handles different office functions as needed. Rapp worked at Thermafiber for 19 years before the company had its first computer. “It was a big change going from a type-

Manchester Early Learning Center seeking new location Dear Editor, As some people have noticed, there is a new “sold” sign up in North Manchester. This sign is located on the corner of Market and 7th Street, directly across from Warvel Park. What these people may not know however is what is going in on that property. The rumor is out that the Manchester Early Learning Center is in the

process of finding a new home, but there are still many outstanding questions. As the only licensed daycare center in Wabash County, many people underestimate the significant need to move it to a more appropriate and centrally located location. In its current location behind the foundry, exposure to dust and polluted air is raising health con-

cerns for the children and workers. With limited financial means, it has not been possible for the Early Learning Center to improve the situation. The need for a better facility is urgent. Not enough bathrooms and tight quarters does not sufficiently serve 50 children and workers there. A new building would not only provide a more suitable learning environment

for these kids, including easier access to the park, library, and pool, but also more room to accommodate children still on the waiting list to get into the facility. With the community’s help and support, the dream of a new Manchester Early Learning Center can become a reality for the children of the future. Sincerely, Karly Eichenauer

Trever Holeman and Devan Eccles to wed Trever David Holeman and Devan Marie Eccles are proud to announce their engagement. Trever is the son of Jerry and Nicole Holeman, Monon. He is a 2013 graduate of North White High School and will graduate from Air Force training in July. His grandparents are Carl and Pat Holeman, Reynolds, and the late Jimmy and Carol McGill, Monon. Devan is the daughter of Nick and Danielle Eccles, Reynolds. She is a 2013 graduate of North White High School and is currently studying to be a special education teacher. Her grandparents are Tom and Deb Niccum, Wabash, and Marvin and Pamelia Bailey, Wabash. The couple plans to wed on July 26.

Stirring it up with Angie Baer I think being a Grandma is one of God’s greatest blessings. Grandchildren bring us joy and make our lives complete. Our six-year-old granddaughter came for a short visit last week. She loves to “help” her Papa work in the garden, especially giving leaf lettuce “ haircuts”. So, after a few minutes of playing beauty shop in the garden and “trimming” leaf lettuce it was time for me to make the salad dressing. You can use most any variety of salad greens. Totally your preference. I just use leaf lettuce but adding a mixture of spinach or romaine will give your salad texture and color. Make sure to wash each leaf separately. This can be a pain, but it’s very necessary. Using a salad spin-

I seldom buy salad dressing from the store. With a combination of sweet and tart, this salad dressing will leave you wondering whether the salad you made is a salad or dessert.

Wabash County YMCA with school districts boost children’s reading skills through SPARK This summer, the Wabash County YMCA is embarking on its third year of partnership with local school districts to offer a summer learning loss prevention program for children entering first, second and third grade designed to boost reading skills over the summer. The program, known locally as SPARK (Summer Program of Awesome Reading for Kids), is a national initiative with the Y, and will strive to help children read at grade level by the third grade – a key educational milestone that is important to children’s ongoing knowledge retention and academic performance.

“During summer months, youth are often not as engaged in learning and reading activities as they would be while in school,” said Amanda JonesLayman, VP of A c a d e m i c Eng a g ement, Wabash County YMCA. “SPARK is unique because not only are we building reading skills through classroom time with teachers from each district, but we are igniting kids’ life-long love of learning through enrichment activities like art, music, character development, nutrition education, physical activity and field trips.” SPARK is a true

collaboration between the Y and local school districts. This year, SPARK will engage students from Wabash City Schools, MSD of Wabash County, and M a n c h e s t e r Community Schools. Wabash SPARK programs are already underway, while M a n c h e s t e r Elementary will host SPARK starting June 30. Among the community partners providing enrichment for SPARK are Honeywell Education Outreach, Purdue Extension Family Nutrition Program and Mini 4-H, TCB Games, the Wabash Carnegie Public Library, North Manchester Public

Library, and StraussPeabody Aquatic Center. In addition, families partner in SPARK by attending events that encourage reading at home. Community members can participate in SPARK as a volunteer reading buddy. Initial results in Wabash County show strong gains in reading skills: on average, children gained 2.6 months of reading skills in six short weeks last summer. In addition: •Nearly all parents/caregivers (98 percent) reported that their child was “more excited to learn” and showed “increased self-confidence.” •98 percent report(Continued on page 14)

The Honeywell Center will host five short plays about Indiana cultural figures presented by the Rivers Institute Traveling Theatre company on Thurs., June 26 at 1 p.m. Hanover College’s River’s Institute is part of an interdisciplinary program for academic excellence. College students can participate in several different capacities each summer to further their academic pursuits and gain real-world experience. A traveling theatre troupe is part of the program this year. The five one-act plays that are being performed were written by the students. In late spring, the college sent a simple grant application offering the performance to theaters and performing arts cen-

ters in Indiana. Teresa Galley, Educational Outreach Program Manager at the Honeywell Center, applied hoping to include the performance as an experience for the Visual & Performing Arts Summer Theatre students. Two weeks ago Mrs. Galley received word that her grant application was approved for a performance on June 26th. Being grant supported, admittance to the performance is free and open to the public. The five one-act plays vary in tone from wistful to dramatic, to gently comedic to appeal to broad audiences. Students from Hanover College wrote, directed, and will star in the plays as follows: •”Ghost Light” by

Now, in a full partnership with Christine Napier, the store is about to reopen at a new location, 563 North Cass Street, Wabash, allowing the store to offer more items, big and small. There new location is also wheelchair accessi-

ble, unlike their old building. Stella’s continues to offer a variety of items including furniture, clothing, antiques and knickknacks. The new building offers three times the space that the building on Wabash Street had to offer. They had expanded but quickly outgrew their former location. “We expanded to the other side and then we outgrew it. we just had a bigger vision. Who knows,

in the next two years, we might outgrow this,” Snyder told The Paper. “We love the traffic. It’s easy access. We love this location,” added Snyder. “I had this lady tell me she goes to Dollar General all the time and never noticed us before,” Napier told The Paper of Stella’s previous location. Snyder and Napier always look for unique items when they are out together to add to their inventory.

If you enjoyed visiting Stella’s, you’ll want to be sure to stop in again at the new location for their grand opening on June 30. Their hours will be from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m., Monday through Saturday. The store will be closed on Sundays The new Stella’s is located at 563 North Cass Street, Wabash. You can still find them on Facebook at www.facebook.com/ StellasResaleandThr iftStore.

This space allows them to have larger items in their inventory and they have built a ramp to be wheelchair accessible. Be sure to visit Tammy (right) and Christine (left) on June 30 for Stella’s grand re-opening beginning at 9 a.m. at 563 N. Cass Street. (photo by Emily Armentrout)

put it to good use and started a knitting group for the Knit for Kids program. Rehrig was familiar with Guideposts program so she recruited several other residents to join her. “We make items for kids ages 2-10 years old,” Rehrig told The Paper. “When we get a box full of sweaters, blankets and hats, we send them off to headquarters in Pennsylvania.” In 2013, knitters around the country provided 53,728 items for children in need. Timbercrest would like to invite knitters in the community to join Rehrig and her group on this project. The group meets once a month, but they are also knitting on their own before and after each meeting. For more information on being a part of this group, please call Ann Rehrig at 260-982-6058.

Between the banks: a canoe trip down the Wabash River...continued from page 6 remains in only small, fragmented sections where it has been preserved; its massive wooden locks have been all but lost to history. As farmland was developed, erosion from neighboring fields filled the river with silt. Eventually, the paddleboats, which once transported passengers as far north as Lafayette, were unable to operate. Today, the most common boats seen on the river are flat-bottom aluminum fishing boats with outboard motors. For our purposes, a canoe was the obvious choice in watercraft. While most people’s idea of a vacation doesn’t include paddling a canoe for 6-8 hours a day, the prospect of listening to a motor and worrying about our fuel supply was equally unappealing to the two of us. A canoe would allow us to quietly move down the river while enjoying

the slowly changing scenery and wildlife. It would also allow us space for gear and supplies, which would have been much more limited in a kayak. Though we didn’t train for the trip, we planned for a comfortable pace that we could manage without our arms falling off (though by day 6, they were admittedly sore). We wanted to, in some way, travel back to a time when the canoe was the primary means of river travel. It wasn’t that we were trying to live as the Native Americans and early settlers lived; they didn’t have butane stoves, headlamps, Gortex rain jackets, or camelbacks to help in their journey. Still, there is something about traveling by human power that is rejuvenating. Whereas a motorboat can be used to battle against the currents, a canoe forces you to connect to the river

and move with its flow. It was also a personal test of endurance; we wanted to prove to ourselves that we could do it. Any trip of this length requires careful planning. If there is one thing that Mary and I agree on, it’s the importance of having quality gear for a trip like this. With the right gear and a little knowledge, it’s easy to transform a small plot of land into a comfortable living space. Though the purpose of the trip was the journey down the river, a comfortable resting place and good food is a great payoff after a long, hot day on the water. Planning meals was also of primary importance, as there are few convenient supply points along the river. Careful study of weather forecasts as well as the river’s flow and stage in the days leading up to our departure gave us some idea of what

MARY STANDS AT THE DOWNSTREAM edge of the small island on which we camped the first night. At this point, we still had more than 180 miles ahead of us. (photo by Eric Stearley) to expect on the river. After weeks of planning and days of packing, we were ready. As we pushed off from the boat ramp near Carroll Street in a borrowed, 15½ foot Coleman canoe, (thanks to Tony Baldini of Logansport) we were anxious and excited. We knew we would return to Wabash nine days later with a very different view of the river and my hometown. With Mary paddling at the bow and myself at the stern, we passed under Carroll Street Bridge as our family waved us on. As the sound of cars passing across the bridge overhead faded, the trip began. Along with Jerry

Hay’s Wabash River Guidebook, the space separating our two small seats was filled with all of our camping supplies, clothes, two straw hats, extra paddles, a 40-liter dry bag full of food, five gallons of water, and, of course, two carefully packed cameras. Fully packed and carrying two passengers, we estimated the boat’s weight to be nearly 600 pounds. Leaving Wabash just before 8 p.m., we knew we didn’t have more than an hour to find our campsite. One of the first things you notice on the river is that your sense of location quickly fades away. Aside from the occasional bridge or converging stream, the

end of an island just a few miles west of downtown. As our trip continued, many of the river’s sandbars and islands were underwater, but on that first night, we had beautiful beachfront property. As Mary set up the tent and living space, I gathered driftwood to make a small campfire. As we set up camp and prepared dinner, it struck us just how seldom we hear of people traveling the Wabash. While it’s a big river, it is fairly tame, with the current rarely flowing faster than 2 mph. With this beautiful island just an hour down the river and a boat ramp just a few miles further, it would make for a perfect overnight camping trip. Though not far from civilization, the river gives you a sense of remoteness. You feel entirely disconnected from the outside world. As we lay in the sand next to the campfire, we were relieved to know that we were finally on our way. Months of anticipation had led up to our departure, and we found ourselves enjoying our own little piece of heaven. As the sun set, the sounds of nature began to resonate amongst the trees. Though the magnitude of our trip had yet to sink in, we knew that we were in for quite the adventure. To Be Continued…

only way to know where you are on the river is to match the river bends to the map (not an exact science) and keep track of how long you’ve been paddling (a less exact science). On that first night, we had one additional clue to help us along: PaperWorks, Harvey Industries, and Aleris are located near the river, and their distant humming let us know where we were. That evening, we were also guided by a blue heron, who gracefully flew ahead of our boat in 100yard increments, resting on the riverbank only long enough for us to catch up before moving downriver once again. We spotted the first just after passing Charley Creek. Each heron seemed to have a territory it would patrol, and when it reached the boundary, it would circle overhead and fly back upstream. It wasn’t long before another would appear and lead us further down the river; rarely would we see two herons together in the same area. We named the first bird Hermon, and since there was usually one and only one flying in our area, we would end up applying the name to each heron we encountered over the course of the trip. The river, which steadily rose over the course of our trip, was low enough on the first night to expose a sandy beach on the downstream
