The rodeo returns to Monroeville onSept. 22 when St. Rose Church hosts HatCreek Arena’s Bulls and Barrels rodeo.
The Bulls and Barrels rodeo, accordingto Lori Wagner, the president of St.Rose’s parish finance council, will be asmaller version of the popular event.
“This is a mini version of a full-blownrodeo,” Wagner said. “There will be bullriding and barrel racing.”
The event will feature a full spectrumof events from amateur to professional,according to Hat Creek Arena’s website.The bull riding competitions will be sanc-tioned by the Southern Extreme BullRiding Association.
Wagner said a rodeo was held inMonroeville for several years, hosted bythe fire department. That event hasn’tbeen around for more than 10 years, shesaid.
So, when the church was brainstormingways to raise money for the eventualpurchase of the former Monroeville
Elementary School site, the idea of arodeo was tossed around.
“As part of the church’s 100th anniver-sary celebration, we are doing variousthings to raise money to keep a school inMonroeville. When we talked to HatCreek Arena and they had openings intheir schedule, we went for it,” Wagnersaid.
The event will take place in theMonroeville Park Arena on Sept. 22.Gates open at 5:30 p.m. with a live bandplaying at 6 p.m. The rodeo will begin at7 p.m. Tickets are $10 for adults and $8for children if bought in advance. Ticketsat the door are $12 for adults and $10 forchildren.
Pre-sale tickets can be purchased fromMeyer Auto Sales in Monroeville,Johnny’s Diner in Monroeville, MilanCenter Feed and Grain in New Haven andBroken B in Geneva.
Wagner said there also will be stickpony races for children along with otherkids’ activities.
All proceeds from the event will gotoward the purchase and maintenance of
the proposed St. Joseph School. Wagnersaid the rodeo, as well as the parish’ssummer festival held in August, mostlikely will become annual events.
“This will be a great night for thewhole community to come out and havesome fun,” Wagner said. “We’d love to
have everyone from the area come out.Hat Creek is in Van Wert, Ohio, so we’dlove to see people from Van Wert, Grabill,Woodburn and all of East Allen Countycome have some fun.”

Instead of sitting idly by and bemoaninghis fate, Thornton continued his workbuilding trucks for five years after his diag-nosis. And, more importantly, he beganwalking in the Walk MS: Northeast, afundraising walk sponsored by the NationalMultiple Sclerosis Society.
As a way to raise funds for his team,Thornton hosted several bowling tourna-ments. Eight years ago, though, his soncame up with the idea to switch to a golfouting. Thus, the Dick Thornton GolfOuting for MS was born.
The first year, Thornton’s golf outingbrought in nine teams and raised $4,000 forthe cause. It’s gotten bigger and better eversince.
The 2012 outing, held Sept. 15 at FosterPark Golf Course, played host to 19 teamsof four golfers and a host of corporate spon-sors.
Thornton said planning a golf outing isn’teasy. Add a debilitating disease and it’s down-right inconceivable. This year, Thornton said,he began planning in early spring.
“I just don’t think of it, I know I have itand it is just something I have to put upwith,” Thornton said. “Since my MS hasgotten worse, I started back in March.”
The preparation tasks included reserving thegolf course, collecting prizes for both the silentauction and raffle, securing corporate holesponsors and, of course, recruiting golfers.
“This year we have 19 teams,” Thorntonsaid. “We have a mix of repeat players, butplenty of new faces, too. The local busi-nesses bring in golfers or get teams togetherthemselves. Golfers come from all over.”
Hole sponsorships, Thornton said, coverthe cost of the meal served to golfers andother things such as event T-shirts and agolfer’s goodie bag.
After the golfing is finished, players cantake part in the silent auction and raffle tonet the cause even more money. Itemsinclude gift cards from local businesses andmore.
Thornton, for all his hard work, said he’sgot big plans for the golf classic bearing hisname.
“I would like this to get as big as thebreast cancer golf outing. More people arefinding out about MS and the more we raise,the more goes to the MS Society forresearch and MS support groups. I’d love tosee this grow,” Thornton said.
All proceeds from the golf outing will bedonated to the National Multiple SclerosisSociety on Thornton’s behalf.
National Multiple Sclerosis Societymarketing manager Amanda Shelley saidThornton and his fundraising activities areextremely important to the organization.
“Dick is a valued champion for our organi-zation and does a great job raising both fundsand awareness for our cause,” Shelley said.
Though the 2012 golf outing was successful,Thornton said he’ll soon be hanging up hisgolf clubs, due the disease’s progression on his60-year-old body. He said his nephew hasvolunteered to carry on the golf outing in thefuture.
“It is getting hard for me to do this,”Thornton said. “This is going to be my lastone.”

If you walk through thehalls of Central LutheranSchool in New Havenand peek into the fifth-grade classrooms, you’llsee an ordinary officesupply taking centerstage as paperclips adornthe students’ clothing.
The paperclips, rangingfrom traditional silver tobright green, are aconstant reminder to eachstudent to be kind to oneanother.
The idea is based onthe Whitwell, Tenn.,Paper Clips Project,which began in 1998 asan eighth-grade projectfocusing on acceptanceof other cultures. Themiddle-school studentsbegan collecting paper-clips to symbolize thelives lost during theHolocaust.
“When the kids fromTennessee were studyingthis, they had to come upwith something small togather 6 million of them.They found that inNorway, during the war,people wore paper clips
as a protest against thewar,” said JanetHayward, fifth-gradeteacher at CLS and brainsbehind the New Havenschool’s project.
Hayward, who saw the2004 documentary“PaperClips”while flip-pingthroughNetflix,decided toresearchthe PaperClipProjectonline.
“I sawthe docu-mentaryand thought that wascool. I was hoping thestudents would realizethat not everybody in theworld is like us. Thereare many different peoplein this world, and weshould find out wherepeople are coming frombefore we judge,”Hayward said.
While researching,Hayward found One Clipat a Time, a non-profitbased in Chattanooga,Tenn., with the goal of
motivating children tomake the world a betterplace. She also found theorganization offered ateacher educationprogram training educa-tors to use the program intheir schools.
Hayward jumped at thechance.
“It was a two-daytraining. The first daythey took us through thecurriculum as if we werethe students,” Haywardsaid. “On the second day,we went to Whitwell andsaw the Holocaustdisplay and read some ofthe letters written byHolocaust survivors whosent in their paperclips.”
Hayward was trainedon the program and
brought the curriculumback to CLS and herfellow fifth-grade teacherDeb Zeckzer. Theteachers kicked off theprogram this school yearusing it to teach aboutthe Holocaust and how it
impacted theworld.
From theprogram,students havecome up withseveraldifferentways to makepositivechanges intheir ownclassrooms,schools andcommunities.
In addition to wearingthe paperclips visibly ontheir body, the fifthgraders consider them-selves “kindnesswarriors” who seek outother students in theschool seen committingacts of kindness. Eachtime a student is caughtin the act of being kind,their name and actionsare posted on the “OneAct at a Time” wall.
A name is chosen fromthe wall bi-weekly andthe child is honored witha Paper Clip award, apaper clip lanyard wornwith pride.
Recently, JensenPeppler was bestowed thefirst Paper Clip award forstanding up for someone
who was being pickedon.
“If anything the PaperClip award kind of openseveryone’s eyes to acts ofkindness,” Hayward said.
CLS is only one of
three schools in the stateto participate in the OneClip at a Time initiative.

WineGood wine doesn’t have to be complicated. Hillary
Stevens, winemaker for The Naked Grape wines says, “Inmy house, the host picks the wine! I recommend pickingone that showcases your personality. If you’re feeling bold,
try a robust Cabernet Sauvignon, and if you’re feelingsassy, try a crisp Pinot Grigio.” For your next feast, sherecommends their newest offering, Harvest Red Blend, amedium-bodied red wine blend with juicy flavors of rasp-berry and red plum. Visit The Naked Grape on Facebook tofind the right wine for your holiday celebrations.

Summertime may seemthe ideal time forharvesting fruits andvegetables, but there areplenty of crops that comeinto season in autumn thatcan make delicious addi-tions to daily diet. Usingseasonal crops eliminatesthe need for importingproduce, helping the envi-ronment as a result.
So what produce isprime for picking comeSeptember throughNovember? Here’s a lookat the items to pick for fallmenu planning.
FruitApples: Early autumn is
prime season for applepicking. Take to theorchards and choosefavorite varieties among thered-, yellow- and green-hued options.
Blueberries: Thoughwidely considered asummertime fruit, blueber-
ries are often in seasonthrough September. Getthem while they last.
Blackberries: Those wholive in rural areas may findblackberries growing wild,just waiting to be picked.Use shallow boxes insteadof bags so that blackberriesdo not get crushed duringtransport. Expect wildblackberries to be smallerthan commercially culti-vated ones.
Figs: Fig trees offer anabundance of sweetdelights this time of year.For individuals lucky tohave a fig tree in the yard,simply go out and pluck ahandful of figs for a fiber-filled treat.
Grapes: Grapes are avail-able at the supermarketyear-round, but they’re intheir prime during theautumn season.
Pears: This is anothertree-grown fruit that comesinto season in the fall. Putpears, blackberries andapples together to make atasty crisp dessert or freshpie.
VegetablesBroccoli: Harvest broc-
coli in the autumn andenjoy a healthy addition tosalads, casseroles andpasta. Research shows thatbroccoli loses much of itsnutritional value whenmicrowaved, so it’s bestwhen lightly steamed.
Cabbage: Cabbage isoften considered an autumnvegetable, although it isroutinely available year-round. Perhaps that’sbecause of the ornamentalcabbage plants that arecool-weather lovers. Makesoups or a late-season slawwith fresh cabbage.
Corn: Perhaps novegetable is more synony-mous with autumn thancorn. Sweet corn isharvested every fall and isabundant at roadsidevendors or at the localstore.
Eggplant: Eggplant isavailable throughSeptember in many areas.A main component of thedish ratatouille, eggplant is
also ideal in Italian mealsor as part of vegetariansandwiches.
Carrots: Autumn-harvested carrots have adeeper flavor than springvarieties.
Mushrooms: Now is thetime to harvest wild mush-rooms. However, it may besafer to choose among themany at the supermarket orlocal farmer.
Pumpkins: Of coursepumpkins are known tobe fall vegetables. Whilethey are often carved, theflesh can be used insalads, soups and inbaked goods.

Rotary seeks professionals forAustria group study exchange
It is hard to imagine KimberlyWagner was ever a shy person.While her tone may be gentle, thedirector of alumni relations atIndiana University-Purdue Univer-sity Fort Wayne speaks to newpeople easily and with confidence.But she has not always been thisway and credits a local program forpeeling back her timid layers.
Then assistant director of the FirstYear Experience program at IPFW,Wagner was quiet, shy and reserved.She rarely spoke up at meetings andtypically waited for direction fromher superiors to implement projects.But when a colleague suggested sheapply for a Rotary Group Study
Exchange (GSE) trip to Australia,she thought, “Why not?”
“There are a lot of things thatbefore, I would have said, ‘Oh sure,I’ll try it,’ but then I’d back out. I’dfind a reason to not go. It was reallyan intimidation and maybe a lack ofself confidence,” Wagner said.“There were times throughout theapplication process when I thought‘Don’t go.’ (I tried to) find everyexcuse to not go through with itbecause I was scared, I was nervous.But I put myself in there, did mybest in the group interview and whenI got the phone call, I couldn’tbelieve it.”
She was selected to be part of the2007 GSE team — made up ofyoung professionals from differentindustries in northern Indiana —
who spent four weeks in Australia tolearn about their respective profes-sions. Wagner was immersed inAustralia’s higher education systemduring her stay, which included fivecities with six different host families.She was also afforded the chance toobserve Australian criminal justiceprocesses, a subject she taught part-time at IPFW in conjunction withher full-time role as assistantdirector.
Her days were spent gettinghands-on experience, making busi-ness connections, givingpresentations and attending rotarymeetings.
Host families were always fellowrotarians and they helped to immerse

From Sept. 22-28, theNew Haven Chamber ofCommerce will sendteams of ambassadors outto area businesses toshow thanks for investingin the community duringtheir first-ever BusinessAppreciation Week.
Eighteen chamberambassadors will work inteams with Kiwanis Clubmembers, delivering giftbags to 200 local busi-nesses, promoting a“shop local” mentalityand community spirit.
Steve McMichael,chamber ambassador andowner of Imagine RealEstate, said the event giveshim a chance to get out inthe community andnetwork with other busi-ness professionals. Andwith New Haven HighSchool’s homecominggame against Belmonttaking place Sept. 28, itwon’t be hard to find asense of community spirit.
New Haven ChamberCEO Vince Buchanansaid with the near
completion of both theMaplecrest Road exten-sion and Fort to Portprojects, the area businesscommunity has a lot to beexcited about.
“That covers the eastand west sides of NewHaven, so we anticipatevery good things to comeout of all that,” he said.“We just want to thankbusinesses for locating inthe New Haven area andthank them for theirinvestment in thecommunity.”
Wagner in Australian culture. But she wasultimately on her own, something shesays built up her confidence and broughther out of her shell.
“People saw this change in me when Icame back. They saw that I was moremotivated. I was more willing to putmyself out there,” Wagner said. “It wasreally about finding my voice and notbeing afraid to talk. Before, I would sit ina meeting and just kind of listen, whereaswhen I came back, I was more apt tomake my opinion known.” She says it’slikely why the chancellor approached herabout an opening for director of alumnirelations — that and her newfound desireto make the most of her role at the univer-sity, which she credits to the RotaryGroup Study Exchange.
“Rotary’s motto is ‘Service above self,’and to bring that kind of attitude back toan organization in my opinion can donothing but good. Before I went, I wasdoing things because I wanted to getahead or because I wanted it on myresume, but now everything I do here isabout IPFW,” Wagner said. “When Isomeday leave this place — if I leave thisplace — it’s going to be better than it waswhen I got here. That’s my mission. It’sabout my employer, it’s not about me. Ireally think that’s something an employeecan gain from this experience.”
Likewise, it’s something an employercould gain by signing off on a potentialapplicant, which is required before theycan submit to the program. Wagner said
the rotary program is basically training anemployee in something the companywould otherwise not be able to. TheRotary International Foundation providesfor the team member’s round-trip airfare,while international host families providemeals, lodging and local travel expenses.All that team members must pay for areincidentals and personal expenses.
Members of the Fort Wayne RotaryClub are right now accepting applicationsfor four people to take part May 18-June15, 2013 in a Group Study Exchange tripto Austria. To be eligible, applicants mustbe 25 to 40 years of age, employed fulltime in a recognized business or profes-sion and live in Fort Wayne.
Applications must be received by Sept.30 and can be requested from RotarianMike Kelly by calling 481-6620 oremailing [email protected]. Once appli-cants have gone through the interviewprocess locally, a group interview willtake place Saturday, Oct. 27, in Plymouthand attendance is required for considera-tion.
“It’s really a non-rotary program meantto expose different people to the rotaryclub,” Wagner said. “You don’t automati-cally become a (rotary) memberafterwards, it’s really up to the individual.Personally, I joined because I got somuch out of the experience that I intendto spend the rest of my life giving back tothat club because they gave so much tome by picking me and allowing me to bepart of this GSE experience.”

Save Maumee made avisit to the New Havenfarm market on Aug. 30.
The grassroots organiza-tion brought alonghands-on activities for kidsand information for theirparents about its efforts tosave the area’s rivers. Infor-mation and activitiesfocused on erosion andwater quality in theMaumee River, which is animportant part of theregion’s history and iden-tity.
Jodi Leamon, director ofnature programming forNew Haven Parks Depart-ment, said some of thedisplays included a water-shed activity for kids wherethey can see the origin ofdifferent pollutants andhow they end up in therivers. Also on hand was ademonstration on differentsubstrates and how thosethings pollute the water.
“The kids could poursome water through andsee how dirty it was whenit came out,” Leamon said.
In addition, SaveMaumee brought alongsome trash and debris
pulled from the river earlierin the day. Leamon said anold tire, metal objects andplastic bottles werecommon.
Leamon said the demon-stration was an integral partof the farm market’s goalof educating kids — andadults — about the areaand its natural resources.
“With the New Havenfarm market, we try toincorporate non-profitswith conservation orcommunity-orientedmessages,” Leamon said.“The farm market providesa really good venue foreducation.”
Leamon said SaveMaumee, specifically, hasan important message tothe area since the Moser
Park Nature Center sitsdirectly on the MaumeeRiver.
Save Maumee wasformed to create awarenessof the conditions of thethree Fort Wayne riverswhile facilitatingecosystem restoration proj-ects to help Lake Erie.
Ultimately, the groupattempts to repair andimprove the St. Joe, St.Mary and the Maumeerivers while working toreverse years of pollution.Save Maumee hopes revi-talizing the St.Joe/Maumee watershedwill protect and restore theenvironment whileimproving the economic,aesthetic and recreationalvalue of the rivers.

EACS school staff members honoredThe Indiana Department of Educa-
tion named Woodlan Jr.-Sr. and NewHaven high schools as two of 165Indiana schools to receive the IndianaGold Star School Counseling Awardin 2012. New Haven initially earnedthe distinction in 2009.
Gold Star schools undergo arigorous process to raise studentachievement by creating localcommunity advisory groups to reviewstudent data, set specific student goalsand commit to maximizing the timeand skills of the school counselor.

“We recognize Woodlan Jr.-Sr.High School for understanding thetremendous impact that school coun-selors can have in helping studentssucceed in school counselors can havein helping students succeed in schooland also to plan for postsecondarysuccess” said Amanda Culhan, IDOEschool counselor consultant.
The high schools join more than163 Indiana schools to receive theGold Star Award since its inception in1997. Six years later, the IDOE, incollaboration with the Indiana StudentAchievement Institute, began offeringprofessional development opportuni-ties for schools interested in aligningtheir counseling program with the
Gold Star model. Schools participatein a one-day workshop, followed by aseries of monthly webcasts, to helpthem make the transformation to theIndiana Gold Star School Counselingmodel.
“The school counselors and othersat New Haven High School haveworked hard to ensure that studentshave an accountable school coun-seling program that meets theiracademic, career and citizenshipdevelopment needs,” said SueReynolds, executive director of theISA. “These educators and commu-nity members are truly dedicated tothe community’s young people andare going the ‘extra mile’ to helpstudents succeed.”
Additionally, Andy Davis andLuray Riggle participated in trainingsessions during the 2011-12 schoolyear and learned how to implementthe Gold Star School Counselingmodel. Students, teachers, parents andcommunity members who serve onthe local school counseling advisorycouncil also took part in the initiative.
“The school counselors andothers at Woodlan Jr/Sr HighSchool have worked hard to ensurethat students have an accountableschool counseling program thatmeets their academic, career andcitizenship development needs,”Reynolds said.

“A decrease in livestockproduction in the commu-nity and increasing petclients necessitated trans-forming the livestockmedicine storage roominto a modern pet exami-nation room in 2002,”David said.
Some of the resultingtechnological advancesinclude the addition of avideoscope machine 10years ago. The tool allowsthe veterinarian to incor-porate an ear video intoevery annual exam.
“We can print out apicture so they can seeeverything I see,” Davidsaid. The videoscope alsocan be used to look up apet’s nose.
The clinic also usesclass IV laser lighttherapy to reduce swellingafter surgeries and in lieuof pain medication.Computerized blood pres-sure readings and heartrhythm tests round out alist of high-tech offerings.David said only a fewveterinarians in FortWayne use these tech-nologies, which, Davidsaid, puts Maumee Valleyat a great advantage.
“I’ve been involved inlarge practices but I reallyenjoy being on my own. Ican make the decision touse whatever technologywithout persuading a bossor talking it over with co-workers,” David said.
“(Small practices) are thelast frontier where we canbe innovative and practicethe science and the art ofmedicine without ourhands being tied.”
As one can imagine,this highly technical caretakes extra time, but givespatients very thoroughexaminations. An in-houselaboratory speeds diag-nosis of medicalconditions for the animalpatients.
David Narhwold said heis blessed to be supportedby a loyal and profes-sional staff with anaverage of 15 years ofservice.
“Our philosophy is thatwe treat everyone likefamily. We can take moretime to do a more thor-ough job, ” David said.
David said he isn’tready to throw in thetowel just yet, eventhough he admits togetting a few years older.
“I’ll go as long as Ican,” David said. “Iwouldn’t change what Iam doing. A lot of peoplecan’t wait to retire and getout of work, I really don’twant to because I enjoywhat I do.”
David will, however,enjoy having a few freeSaturdays when he doesslow down a little. He andElaine plan to visit theirthree children — spreadout across the country —and relax when they getthe chance.
