DUPLAIN TWP. – Katelyn Hennings ispassionate about her dogs. Providing suf-ficient exercise for the high-energy Siberi-an huskies has meant lots of bike rides forHennings.
Her usual means of exercising the dogsis to harness them to her bike and take offdown the country road she lives on.
“I got tired of riding my bike in the win-ter,” said Hennings.
That led her to an idea for a project inher woodworking class at Ovid-Elsie HighSchool where she is a junior.
“She came to me and asked if she couldbuild a dog sled,” said Everett Smith, O-Ewoods teacher.
Smith gave her a thumbs-up on the ideaand then set out to gather all the informa-tion needed to make the dog sled a reality.
His first step was to get online and findout what sort of resource people he couldfind in Michigan. He spoke to a woman onthe west side of the state who heads up oneof Michigan’s dog sled organizations.
Then he got the name and contact infor-mation for a woman in Ann Arbor.
YIPSILANTI - St. Johnssophomore diver BrandonLaBar took first place at theDivision 2 state finals, mak-ing him the first Redwingdiver to ever win a state ti-tle. He is the first Redwingstate champion since CodyStinnett won the 50-yardfreestyle in 2006.
The Redwing team alsohad a solid performance, fin-ishing eighth, their best fin-ish since the state switchedfrom Class A and Class B-C-D tournaments to rankingby divisions in 2003. St.Johns had 11th place finish-es in 2004 and in 2006.
LaBar, with 453.10 points,easily outpaced second-place Elliot Littman of Berk-ley with 440.75 points.
Redwing diving coachJim Makarauskas said hewas impressed with thepoise LaBar showed at thestate meet.
Under MHSAA rules, div-ers completed eight of the11-dive rotation in the March11 preliminary round. Thetop 16 from preliminariesadvanced to the final’s roundthe next day.
“The circumstances thathe did it under were most im-pressive,” Makarauskas said.
“He had the lead after thesecond round, and to hangon to that lead all the waythrough was really impres-sive. There was a little pres-sure there.
“He had to sleep on thatand come back the secondday and perform again (forthe final three dives).”
St. Johns junior Brennan LaBar shows off his statechampion diving medal. LaBar claimed the title at theMHSAA Div. 2 state finals March 12 in Ypsilanti.

“I called this woman in Ann Arbor and asked if we couldborrow a sled,” said Smith. “She let me go down and pickup a sled without ever even meeting me.”
Smith said the dog sled project has some surprisingfacts, and has brought about some very interesting results.
“First of all, just to build a dog sled is pretty unusual,”he said. “Then to have it be a woman who is doing it, and ahigh school student at that, it’s very amazing.”
In his research on dog sleds, Smith made another amaz-ing and very helpful discovery. He found Clyde Risdon, aLaingsburg resident, who has built lots of dog sleds overthe years. Risdon says he’s been building sleds for years.
“I sold my first one in 1980,” said Risdon, “and I startedbuilding them a couple years before that.”
Risdon said he had bought some sleds, but never foundanything that handled quite like he wanted. That led him tosome design changes.
“I’d say I’ve probably made somewhere in the neighbor-hood of 3,000 sleds,” said Risdon. “At one time we weremaking more than 100 per year.”
Risdon said a good sled costs between $1,000 and $1,500and starter sleds are about $450.
“We now make a whole line,” he said.Risdon came to Ovid-Elsie High School March 11 to
help Hennings with some of the final details of her sled -attaching the protective vinyl strips on the runners, for ex-ample. And as he helped her with the work, he explainedto her why he does things the way he does them.
He could sense that this isn’t a passing fancy for Hen-nings. After high school, she wants to raise dogs and racethem.
“I’m not exactly sure what I want to do, but I want toraise dogs, work with kids and be able to stay at home,”she said.
The project has taken about 10 weeks, according toSmith.
“We had to build four jigs to shape the parts of the sled,”he said. “Katie has actually been working on the sled foreight or nine weeks - one hour each day in class, plus shecomes in before school lots of days.”
The white birch used to build the sled was cut fromthe woods on the school property. Then it was dried andplaned into thin pieces that Hennings laminated togetherand shaped on the special jigs they made.
When word of Hennings’ project got out, a man gave hera planer so she can continue to work with wood even whenshe isn’t in one of Smith’s classes.
“A lot of great things have come out of this project,”said Smith. Another offshoot of the project is a piece forthe “Michigan Outdoors” television show. James Ford, whoteaches radio and television production at Ovid-Elsie, hasbeen videotaping much of the project and is doing a fea-ture piece for the show. It will air sometime soon, accord-ing to Ford.
Hennings says the time involved has been the most chal-lenging part of the project for her.
But she says she thinks it is worth it.Though the snow was pretty much gone before the sled
was complete, Hennings was still able to hitch two of her
dogs to the sled for its maiden voyage March 12.The conditions were not ideal, but it was very apparent
Hennings was in her element once the dogs were in theirharnesses and began to pull.
All those hours of work were finally paying off.
Katelyn Hennings, Ovid-Elsie High School junior, tookthe dog sled she made in woodworking class on itsfirst run March 12.

EAST LANSING, MI | HOW MANYFRIENDS HAVE TOLD YOU THEY LOVE
THEIR HEARING AIDS? Now how manyhave said their hearing aids makesome sounds too loud, don’t workwell in noise, or they can’t tell if theyare really helping them hear at all?Audiologists and dispensers try tomake hearing aids function the bestthey can to give the patient a goodoutcome. But there were always a lotof difficulties surrounding comfortand understanding of speech.
Let’s say you havea small child,an average sizedwoman, and a verylarge man, all withthe same hearingloss. All hearingaids would beprogrammed the
same way, according to the hearingaid manufacturers software. But theear canals themselves must figureinto the process, as well. Withoutdiving into too much physics, earcanal size and shape for the childwould be quite small. The womanwould be close to the average sizeear canals and the man’s ear canalswould be quite large and long. Thechild would receive too much powerfrom the hearing aids, the woman’sfitting would be close, and the man’shearing aids would seem very quiet.All hearing aid manufacturers basetheir science off the average ear. Butno one has the average ear.Live speech mapping is the latestinnovative approach to hearing aidfitting which uses natural speech toshow how effective digital hearing
aids are in helping you to hearspeech. With digital speech mapping,an actual speech signal, not tones orhissing sounds, is used to test thehearing aids while inserted in thepatient’s ears.This allows for the shapeand size of the patient’s ear canals to beincluded in the fitting process, as wellas using the most important signal wehear, speech. For hearing aid fittingsto be successful, speech must beappropriately amplified with respectto loudness, clarity, and comfort.Soft speech should be perceived assoft, moderate speech sounds shouldbe perceived as moderate, and loudspeech sounds should not reach thepatient’s discomfort level.Speech mapping helps to provide
a clear “visual” sense of the hearingloss, and the benefits or perhaps thelimitations that your current hearingaids offer in relation to actual speech.While wearing hearing aids, a tinyprobe microphone is inserted intothe ear canal while the hearing aidsare running, then a stimulus (voices/music) is used to measure the outputand shows if the hearing aids areamplifying sounds appropriately. TheLive Speech Map is displayed on amonitor through easily-understoodgraphics so that you can actuallysee sounds that are missing and bepresented with a clear visual senseof hearing loss and aided benefitsrelating to actual speech. It allowsyou to see graphically just how theaid is performing in a live, real worldenvironment.Once we see what sounds you’re
missing, we’ll be able to tune yourpersonal hearing aids until it restoresthe missing speech patterns andtones. So, not only will you hear thedifference a hearing aid makes withyour speech, you’ll be able to see thesounds being restored visually aswell. A successful hearing aid fittingshould be a dynamic, patient-centered
process. To achieve optimum success,the dispensing professional musttailor the process to meet the needs,abilities, and desires of the patient.If you are wondering if your hearingaids, or those of your loved ones, aremeeting their current needs, pleasecall Accuquest Hearing Center at
877-560-3786. Request a no chargeconsultation using the Auricle DigitalSpeech Mapping System. This systemhas set the acknowledged industrystandard for hearing instrumentfitting equipment. This can lead toa better insight into exactly howhearing aids are performing.

JOHNS – A contingent of members fromFirst Congregational Church in St. Johns, headedby Dr. Dave Minnick, will be heading for Cusco,Peru on March 23 to work among the children re-siding in orphanages located in that city. Part ofthe mission includes delivery of at least 100 hand-made backpacks, assembled by area residents forgifts to the children.
At last count, the effort was closing in on thegoal of 100 backpacks, when 17 members of Spar-row Clinton Hospital Auxiliary joined the under-taking by spending an evening sewing and piecingfabric together.
A force of three sewing machines and manynimble fingers completed the assembly of 15 back-packs in a matter of a little over three hours,based on instructions and design provided by thegroup making the trip.
The sewing bee was coordinated by auxiliaryco-president Shelley Gunther who suggested theproject to members.
“This was something that not only fell withinthe auxiliary’s slate of activities,” Ms Gunthersaid, “but it was also a community endeavor.
Members of the hospital staff were part of themission and our members felt committed to thepurpose.”
All fabric, thread and materials were contrib-uted by individual auxiliary members.

WEBBERVILLE - Ju-niors Corey Hungerfordscored 18 points and TylerWalden added 16 to leadFulton to a 57-45 win overBig Rapids Crossroads inthe Class D regional semi-final March 14.
The Pirates advanced tomeet Muskegon Catholic inthe regional final March 16with results too late forthis edition. Muskegon beatLansing Christian 74-60 intheir regional semifinalgame.
Fulton jumped out toan 11-0 first-quarter leadbefore the Cougars (22-2)went on an 8-0 run to cutthe Pirate lead to three at
the buzzer.“We knew coming in that
they were going to be agreat team; they are veryathletic,” Hungerford said.“We knew we would haveto play defense, and wewould just have to out workthem, and that’s what wedid.”
Fulton responded to theCougar run with 14-2 run tostop any Big Rapids threat.Walden hit two of his fourthree pointers during therun.
The Cougars cut the Ful-ton lead to nine points atthe end of the third quar-ter, but would get no clos-er.
“I don’t care what kindof league or what kind ofschedule you have, whenyou are 22-1 you’ve got tohave some players,” Fultoncoach Todd Walden saidabout Big Rapids Cross-roads.
The Cougars are a pub-lic charter school and playsin the West Michigan DLeague.
“We knew we wouldhave to limit Jalen Carter,”Walden said about the Cou-gars top scorer. “I thoughtwe only lost him a coupleof times, and he made uspay for it. We did a good jobof keeping them away fromthe basket by eliminatingtheir dribble drives.”
Walden said BrandonTrefil did a great job of de-fending Carter.
“He was in his hip pock-et most of the second half,
but the rest of the guyswere there helping out too,”he said.
Carter fought throughthe Pirate defensive effortto lead all scorers with 22points. He hit five three-point shots.
Big Rapids coach JasonKostecki said they wereunable to match up withthe Pirates’ size and had todrop out of their full-courtpress early in the first quar-ter. The Cougars have re-lied on the full-court pressthroughout the season.
“They are big kids and itwas kind of hard for us infull court,” he said. “We gotout of our rhythm.”
Fulton, who finished theleague season tied withPewamo-Westphalia for thetop spot in the CMAC, wonthe district title with a 61-48win over Mt. Pleasant Sa-cred Heart March 11.
Walden led the Pirateswith 18 points. Hungerfordscored 16 points and CodyJohnson added 11.

BEAL CITY - Fowler’spost-season run came to anend in the girls basketball re-gional final with a 56-45 lossto Portland St. Patrick March10. Fowler ended the regularseason with an 8-8 overall re-cord, but won three gamesin districts and the regionalsemifinal.
But the Lady Eagles raninto a familiar foe in the re-gional final. Fowler had lostto the Shamrocks twice dur-ing the regular season.
St. Patrick advanced tothe state quarterfinal wherethe Shamrocks lost 54-39 toCentral Lake March 15.
Fowler fell behind early,trailing 7-0 midway throughthe first quarter. Fowler’sKrista Miller banked in athree pointer off the high
glass to stop the Shamrockrun. A pair of baskets byLindsey Hufnagel and bas-kets by Miller and KristaJandernoa tied the score at12 at the first buzzer.
“We knew Fowler was go-ing to play extremely tough,and they did. We shot the balla little better than we havebeen, and they kept gettingafter us,” St. Patrick coachAl Schrauben said. “I neverreally felt comfortable untilthere were about 50 secondsleft.”
The Shamrocks openedthe second quarter with apair of baskets by senior Ni-cole Schneider to go up byfour. St. Pats again lookedto pull away, but Jandernoanailed a pair of three point-ers to knot the score at 18.
Leading by three pointsat half time, the Shamrockstook control in the third quar-
ter, holding a 42-30 lead atthe buzzer.
The Shamrocks startedthe game with full-courtpress defense, but switchedto what Schrauben describedas a “very aggressive 2-3zone” to trap Fowler ball han-dlers. “We don’t want themto stand and look, if we canget after people, we are go-ing to do it,” he said.
Fowler opened the fourthquarter with an 8-4 run to cutthe Shamrock lead to eightmidway through the fourthquarter on a basket by Hufna-gel. Schneider hit 4-of-6 freethrows in the final minutes toseal the win. Schneider ledSt. Pats with 23 points.
“Their experience, the factthat they have been here,may have gotten to us a lit-tle,” Fowler coach Nate Go-erge said.
Fowler hasn’t been to a
regional final since 1999.“We found ourselves forc-
ing the issue a little bitand kind of forced ourselvesinto some unnecessary turn-overs,” Goerge said. “The onething I hope is that peopledon’t lose the sight of is howhard we worked to get tothis point. With Sacred Heartin our district, what a toughroad we had. I’m very proudof the girls.”
Hufnagel led the Eagleswith 24 points. Jandernoascored 12 points.

ST. JOHNS - Eastern hadto battle against a scrappyteam on its home court onin the Class A district semi-finals March 9. But host St.Johns didn’t have enough toderail LaDontae Henton andthe Quakers.
Henton, a senior forwardwho is one of five finalistsfor Michigan’s Mr. Basket-ball award, had 15 points and12 rebounds to lead Easternto a hard-fought 60-48 vic-tory. The Quakers startedpressing in the second quar-
ter, turning a two-point first-quarter lead into a 15-pointhalf-time lead.
“We see a lot of teamslike that in our conference,and we play them even inour nonleague schedule, andit is something we struggledwith,” Redwings coach Ca-leb Miller said. “I think thatwas the difference.”
St. Johns (14-8) didn’t goaway in the second half, ac-tually outscoring the Quak-ers 34-31 after halftime.
“They played with heart,and they played with pas-sion and they didn’t wantit to end,” Miller said of
his team. “Eastern’s a greatteam; they’ve got the likelyMr. Basketball and an out-standing supporting cast andexcellent coaching.”
St. Johns was led bysenior guard Scott Besko,who entered the game offa 39-point performance thathelped end Waverly’s seasontwo days earlier.
Besko scored and shotfrom practically everywhereagain against the Quakerson his way to 23 points.
“The second half he re-ally got more shots up thanwhat we wanted him to get,”Watts said. “We just wanted
to contest every shot thathe got up. We know he’s agood shooter. He’s a kid thatscores on one leg, fallingdown out of bounds … He’sa tough kid.”
On a night when sopho-more guard Cha Cha Tuck-er was relatively quiet withjust six points, Henton stolethe show and provided morethan just scoring for theQuakers.
Junior forward ZacharyGlanz had 12 points forSt. Johns. Jonathan Hardenadded six points for theRedwings. Nate Feldpauschscored four points.

Our visiting experts willshare all the latest on thisback-to-nature trend.
LaBar was the last diver to compete in the 16-diver rota-tion. Heading into the 11th and final dive, LaBar had cho-sen a back one and a half with a half twist for a 2.1 degreeof difficulty.
“The kid in second place was ahead of me (in the rota-tion) and I knew I had to get (at least) 29 points on my last
Dive: LaBar wins St. Johns’ first-ever diving titleContinued from page 1 dive,” LaBar said. “I got 42. It felt pretty good.”
Makarauskas said they worked on the 11-dive list forseveral weeks, determining what dives would give LaBarthe best chance for the state crown.
LaBar’s highest scoring dive was a front one and a halfwith two twists for a difficulty of 2.6. It is one of LaBar’sfavorite dives and it showed with the judges awarding 54points.
“The judges loved him and rewarded him for the qualityof his dives,” Makarauskas said.
Makarauskas said the key was to choose dives that hadenough difficulty to earn points, but also to choose divesthat LaBar was comfortable with and could consistentlyperform well.
“I tried to do what I’ve done in practice over the pastthree months and stay consistent,” LaBar said. “States isn’ta place to try anything new.”
Makarauskas said some of the divers threw some verydifficult dives into their rotation, but they didn’t do themwell.
“You have to have a strong enough list of dives, but thenyou have to be able to execute them,” Makarauskas said.“Every dive he did, he executed them very well.”
Makarauskas spoke to a coach after LaBar took thestate crown and he told Makarauskas that his diver put thehardest dives at the end in hopes of putting pressure on La-Bar. But LaBar responded well, adding to his lead on eachof the three dives.
“He’s a very competitive kid who competes well,” Ma-karauskas said. “He has this little easy smile, and in theheat of battle, he has that easy smile that gives you thesense that he is calm. I’m sure he was nervous, but he han-dles it well.”
LaBar, now 15, started swimming with the St. Johns SeaLions when he was five. He began diving in middle schoolas part of the swim team. In the off season, LaBar trainsfive days a week with the Spartan Dive Club at MSU whereMSU coach Eric Best is one of his coaches.
“Through the club he’s gotten really excellent coach-ing,” Makarauskas said. “When he started diving in highschool (for St. Johns), one of the coaches told me ‘we thinkBrennan will be a state champion (for the club)’ and I re-member thinking ‘wow, they think a lot of him.’”
LaBar holds the 11-dive record for St. Johns. He set therecord last year, then broke his record three times this sea-son with the state finals score his best so far. LaBar nar-rowly missed breaking the six-dive record for the schoolthat is held by Jake Hale.
LaBar is somewhat unique among divers in that he alsocompetes in swimming events. He is the top Redwing inthe 100 breaststroke and swam the breaststroke leg for the200 medley relay team that qualified for the state meet.
“I like being able to help the team with swimming

Redwing swimmerseighth at state finals
“We swam incredibly wellon Friday,” Redwing coachKim Brewbaker said aboutthe preliminary held March11. “This was a tough meetthis year. Our guys steppedup and placed themselveswell.”
The top 16 in each eventfrom the preliminary roundadvanced to the March 12 fi-nals. The top eight compet-ed in the “A” final. Thosefinishing in ninth through16th place in the preliminaryround competed in the “B”final, and could not move upinto the “A” final, regardlessof times.
Brewbaker said theywere hoping for a top 15 fin-
ish at states, but after thepreliminary round, they felta top 10 was within reach.
“We are so proud of theseguys. They shaved and ta-pered just for the meet and itpaid off for them,” Brewbak-er said. “They really compet-ed with heart and it showedin every race.”
Redwing senior NickGrider finished fifth in the50 freestyle with a time of21.63 and was sixth in the100 freestyle (47.39).
Sophomore Ben Grider,Nick’s younger brother, fin-ished 14th in the 50 freestyle(22.51) and 12th in the 100freestyle (48.62).
The Redwing 200 free-style relay team of AlexHarry, Jeff Makarauskas, B.Grider and N. Grider fin-ished fourth with a time of1:27.03, setting a new St.Johns High School record.
The same Redwing teamfinished ninth in the 400 free-style relay with a time of3:13.95, setting another Red-
wing record.Ironically, in the prelimi-
nary round of the 400 free-style, the Redwings finishedninth, eliminating them fromcompeting in the “A Final.”If St. Johns had been ableto compete in the “A Final,”their time would haveearned them fourth place.
In preliminary competi-tion, the Redwing 200 med-ley relay team of AaronStine, LaBar, Harry and Ma-karauskas finished 18th witha time of 1:43.80.
Jared Gregory was 19thin the diving competitionwith 151.25 points. Stine was30th in the backstroke witha time of 58.69.
“We competed in a verytough Division 2 this yearand were concerned abouthow we would compete atthis level,” Brewbaker said.“All of our guys showed theycan compete with some ofthe top competitors in thestate.”
The Redwings ended the
season with an 11-0 recordand won the CAAC Red Di-vision.

CARSON CITY — CasonCity Hospital and CentralMichigan University Collegeof Medicine recently de-veloped a partnership toprovide clinical training tothe university’s medical stu-dents. As part of the college’sclinical experience, studentswill have access to CarsonCity Hospital facilities, phy-sician and patients.
This agreement falls un-der CMU’s commitment tohelp train physicians whowill practice in central andnorthern Michigan. TheCMU College of Medicinewill enroll its first class ofstudents in 2013.
“This academic andhealth-care facilitypartnership will create newopportunities for both orga-nizations,” said CCH Pres-
ident and CEO Bruce L.Traverse, FACHE. “CCH hasa long history of being ateaching hospital, and welook forward to embracingthat heritage and welcomingCMU students into our facil-ity to learn and develop ashealth-care professionals.”
Traverse said it makessense for CMU students toreceive training in rural andsmall community settingssuch as offered in CarsonCity, since these locationsare currently experiencingsevere physician shortages.
The agreement betweenCMU and CCH will remainin force for seven years, pro-viding students with clinicalprivileges and supervisionduring their education.
