to investigate this incident
to ensure that the right
information is conveyed
to the public in a timely
fashion.”
Here are some facts to
remember when you are in
an area where bears may
be present:
*To avoid surprising bears, travel in small
groups and make noise.
*If you encounter a
bear, stand your ground
and then slowly back
away. Do not turn away.
Do not show fear and
don’t run. Do not play
dead.
*Make yourself look
bigger and talk to the bear
in a stern voice.
*If actually attacked,
fight back with a backpack, stick or bare hands.
*Carry pepper spray,
which has been shown to
be effective in fending off
bear attacks.
For additional information on living with bears,
visit the DNR website at
www.michingan.gov/bear.
Just ten percent of the eight
to ten thousand black bears
in Michigan are found in the
lower peninsula.
A trap similar to this one
was set to try and catch the
black bear that reportedly
attacked a porcupine hunter
in Greenwood Township.

Only one Marathon well scheduled in Clare County
By Pat Maurer
Correspondent
According to information from Marathon Oil
Government and Public
Relations Manager Dorysa
Moore Monday, Marathon
is planning to drill a well
using hydraulic fracturing
in Sheridan Township of
Clare County.
According to Sheridan
Township Supervisor William Strouse in a phone
interview last week, the
well location will be on the
David Schlabach property
on the southeast corner of
Beaverton and Cornwall
Roads.
A second Michigan well
will be drilled in Crawford
County she explained.
She said Marathon Oil of
Huston, Texas and Michigan, “has acquired oil and
gas producing properties
and acreage in Michigan
and has submitted a permit
application for an exploratory well in Clare County.
The company has also
submitted a permit application for an exploratory well
on our Company’s existing
acreage in Beaver Creek
Township in Crawford
County.”
She said, “These activities are consistent with the
Company’s efforts to identify potential oil and natural
gas resources that could
ultimately be developed in
commercial quantities are
discovered. It is premature
to speculate on additional
being drilled and future
activity in this area. Copies
of the permit application
can be obtained through
the Michigan Department
of Environmental Quality’s Office of Oil, Gas and
Minerals.”
She added, “We will
be utilizing the hydraulic
fracturing technique and our
estimated volume of water
is 1.8 million gallons, as
noted in our drilling permit
applications.
At marathonoil.com,
fracking is explained in
detail. In part the site says,
“Marathon Oil has a longstanding commitment to
protecting the environment.
The facts are that hydraulic
fracturing is a safe procedure that has been used by
the oil and gas industry for
more than 60 years on more
than 1 million wells with
great success and for the
benefit of energy consumers.”
Responding to claims
that the process can harm
water supplies, the site
adds, “The fundamental
way to protect drinking water is through managing the
well’s integrity. It is important to realize that the well
is completely sealed off
from the aquifer with two
or more steel and cement
casings or liners, which
are monitored for integrity
prior to, during and after
the fracture stimulation.
These casings are pressure
tested before a fracking job
to ensure they do not leak,
and they are monitored for
a H2S (Hydrogen Sulfide)
well, but that H2S formation “may be encountered
during drilling activities.”
There is an H2S contingency plan for both wells if
H2S is found, the Marathon
information said.
Marathon said, “Activities are expected to begin in
the fall of 2015.”

the process.”
Moore said, “The
Company will conduct
these activities consistent
with the Company’s core
values and long held
commitment to responsible operations, the
safety and wellbeing of
our workers and the surrounding community, and
protection of the environment.”
According to information Clare County Emergency Manager Jerry
Becker received from the
Marathon Oil Company
last week, the well will be
in Section 18, T17NR3W
of Sheridan Township.
Marathon said they do not

Clare approves Phase 1 of Rec Complex
By Pat Maurer
Correspondent
Although two City Commissioners disagreed, the
Clare City Commission
voted 3-2 Monday evening
to approve a low bid of
$331,348. from McGuirk
Sand and Gravel for Phase I
of the proposed Recreation
Complex on the south side
of Clare.
Phase I of the complex
plan will include earthwork,
a paved parking lot and infrastructure and storm water
and drainage work
The motion also included
authorization for a 15-year
bond process to fund the
project. Repayment of the
bonds for the next eight
years will be from the tenyear Clare City Recreational
Millage passed by voters
two years ago. At that point
voters will have to vote to
renew the millage.
That was the problem for
two of the City Commissioners, who urged that the board
wait. Commissioner, and
Mayor Pro-tem Jean McConnell said, “You don’t
know if the recreational
millage will continue. If
it doesn’t this will have to
be paid from the General
Fund. And, there is also
the cost of maintenance (to
consider). Maybe it would
be better to look at this in a
year and a half again.”
Commissioner Bob Bonham echoed McConnell’s
view, saying he agreed
that the board should wait
before committing to the
project. “We have several
parking lots that need paving and a playground that
needs bathrooms,” he said.
City Manager Ken Hibl
noted that the millage
passed in 2012 by a wide
margin of voters, who were
told the funds would be
used to develop a soccer field on the property
purchased earlier. In his
agenda report he said,

charges in connection with
a “rolling meth lab,” discovered after a traffic stop
in Saginaw County.
Saginaw County Sheriff’s Department deputies
stopped the vehicle that
the couple were in September 15 in Kochville
Township. After Thompson
complained of “not feeling
well,” deputies searching the vehicle discovered
chemicals – what police
believe was a one-pot meth
lab – in the trunk of the
vehicle.
The chemicals are under
analysis by the Michigan
State Police Crime Lab in
Bridgeport to confirm that
the substance was a meth
mixture.
Frederick was arrested on an outstanding
Clare County warrant and
Thompson was taken to
an area hospital. Frederick
is reportedly on probation
for breaking and entering
a building with intent to
commit larceny and two
controlled substance manufacturing charges in Clare
County.
Four deputies at the
scene of the traffic stop
were also treated for “light
exposure to fumes,” a
MLive Facebook post said.
At his arraignment
September 17, Frederick

and conspiring to commit
that crime, two felonies that

of 20 years in prison. His

Clare County Prosecutor Michelle Ambrozaitis
reported she had charged
each of the men with seven
counts of Home Invasion,

punishable by up to 15
years in prison.
Bond was set at
$100,000 cash/surety only

A bystander, Timothy

charged in connection with
the incident, the report
said. Reportedly he was
taking pictures at the scene
and did not back away
from the hazardous area
when offers ordered him
to. He was arrested and
charged with resisting and
obstructing a police officer, a felony that carries
a maximum penalty of two
years in prison. Dembinsky

scheduled for an Oct. 5

recreation complex was the
primary basis and rationale
for asking City residents
to consider the recreation
millage and is considered
the reason for the significant
majority approval.” At the
meeting he said, “It (turning
the project bid and bonding
down) could mean a loss
of confidence by the voters
who voted for the millage.”
According to a spread
sheet prepared by City
Treasurer Steven Kingsbury, millage revenue is
$63,007.89 for this year with
$$19,558.00 scheduled for
payment on the land purchase, leaving $43,449.80.
Annual payments on the
bond would be $26,851.83
leaving $16,598 available
for other park improvements. The amount collected increases each year.
The forecast for 2019-20 is
$75,560 in revenue from the
millage, leaving $29,150.27
after the land and bond payments.
Kingsbury noted that
interest rates are low now –
from 1.8 to 3.5 percent. “We
won’t see any cheaper rates
in the future,” he said. “It’s a
tough decision.
Parks and Recreation
Director Joy Simmer passed
out a list of some of the
grants they plan on applying
for which could help pay for
the project. “For this first
phase we need to bond,” she
said. “It would be nice to
show the community we are
moving forward on this.”
Over the past couple of
years, the Parks and Rec
Board has been saving for
matching funds. Simmer
said there are over 40 on the
potential grant list and said
the list she passed out only
had the largest ones.
County Commissioner
Leonard Strouse said, “We
have a great grant writer in
Lori Ware, and we wouldn’t
be against her helping apply
for grants for this.”
Concerning maintenance
concerns, Kingsbury added,
“As a general rule the parks
are in pretty good shape.”

Dr. Ben Carson
2016 Presidential Candidate
My Introduction to
Dr. Benjamin Carson
About The Man
Ben Carson was born in the slums of Detroit and was raised by a single mother, with a third
grade education, who divorced his father for being a polygamous spouse. His mother refused to be held down by the system and worked three jobs to provide for her boys. Carson
was failing at school and thought himself a dummy. At one point he stabbed a friend in an
argument, and in fear stormed home to the bathroom where he read the bible begging GOD
to quiet his temper. In so found his undying Faith in GOD.
Carson’s mother, while cleaning houses for rich folks studied their behavior. She noticed
they all read and did not watch TV. She went home turned off the TV and started requiring Carson and his brothers to check out books from the public library and turn in weekly
reports.
Carson quickly rose to the top of his class and joined the ROTC program a year later. In
three years, he rose to the highest position possible as the officer in charge of all ROTC
programs in the city of Detroit. He was offered a full ride scholarship to West Point, but he
chose instead to pursue his career in medicine.
At age 33, he became the youngest person ever to head a major division at John Hopkins
University. He went on to pioneer multiple surgical procedures with his most prominent
being the separation of Siamese twins conjoined at the head and a surgical procedure on a
twin still in the womb.
He later retired as a professor at John Hopkins University. He gained public fame when he
criticized Obama while standing feet away from him at the National Prayer Breakfast in
2013 (speech can be found on you tube) and refused to apologize, stating that Political Correctness has become a tool for the left to stifle opposing views and self-restrict our Constitutional right to free speech.
In keeping with his humble approach to life, Ben Carson has never lusted after the office
of President. To the contrary, he chose to run only after more than five hundred thousand
everyday Americans called on him to run through their clamoring and petitions. Even then
he was reluctant to run until he felt that GOD was calling him to serve. It was not something
he has undertaken lightly, yet it is now something that he is totally committed to.
His motivation to run is something he is doing because he feels the United States of
America is in danger of falling from its pinnacle position in the world and is on its descent
to becoming just another nation.

SPREAD CHRISTMAS JOY TO
OTHERS!
ADOPT A FAMILY FOR
CHRISTMAS

Clare County Christmas Outreach Adopt-a-Family program!
The Adopt-A-Family program
was created to address the
needs of low-income households, children and families, during the holidays.
Join in the season of giving by
becoming a Family Sponsor! We
make it easy for you by creating
a family summary of the names,
ages and needs of each family
member. All you have to do is to
provide the fixings for Christmas
dinner or a gift certificate to a
local grocery store to cover the
cost of dinner and a gift for each
family member.

qualify, call your local Mid Michigan Community Action office.

Bits & Pieces
Pat Maurer, Review Correspondent
There’s bad hunters,
then there’s me
I’m kinda getting stoked
about hunting this year.
Maybe it’s got something
to do with all the youth
hunt pictures we compiled in the Clare County
Review and Marion Press
this year. Or maybe its
because we have been busy
putting together our Hunting Guides that appear in
this week’s Clare County
Review and Marion Press.
More likely, it’s about
the yet unnamed guy in
Greenwood Township,
between Harrison and
Marion that was sitting in
his deer blind, looking to
hunt porcupine when he
was attacked by a black
bear. Although you gotta
question the authenticity
of his story, it apparently
is true, at least the DNR
thinks so.
The DNR checked out
his wounds, and said they
were consistent with what
a bear would cause. He
said he fought off the bear
by stabbing the bear with
his hunting knife. His gun
might have been a more appropriate weapon, but hey,
it worked. He escaped with
only minor injuries.
Now the DNR is placing bait traps filled with
bacon chunks in an effort
to capture the unfriendly
bear. I’m glad I’m not
nearby. I am really craving
some bacon at the moment. Imagine little old
me, caught in the bear trap.
Heck, with my luck, a bear
would come along and start
chewing on my arm.
Amazingly enough
Tucker Heintz, hunting
somewhere near Harrison bagged his first black
bear a few days ago. I’m
wondering if it was our old
feller that attacked the porcupine hunter? Or maybe
we just have more than
our share of bear in Clare
County this year.
I’ve never hunted for
black bear, but I’d like to.
Heck I only did once for
whitetail deer. That was
when I was 16. I remembered it being so cold, I
thought I had frostbite. No
way I could have pulled
a trigger with my hands
so numb. It didn’t matter
anyways. I was out in the
woods for three days and
never spotted a deer. Yet on
the way home, I remember
distinctly, seeing several
shootable deer on the side
of the road.
Just a few years ago
I had finally gotten over
the fear of frostbite when
I was asked by some fine
Harrison gentlemen to join
them on a pheasant hunt. I
hadn’t shot a rifle in years,
but one of the guys offered
me a rifle with the proper

Solutions. What can you do?
Dear Editor;
Ninety seven percent
(97%) of climate scientists
are convinced, based upon
the evidence, that humans
are causing Global Climate
change (Yale Project on
Climate Change Communication). Scientific evidence
has over whelmingly
proven that global warming
is real and is happening at
an increasing rate. Now
scientists are finding that it
is our human activities that
are causing the global climate to change. With each
and every one of us contributing to the problem, each
and every one of us must be
a part of the solution.
We humans are innately
good, we do not want to
do harm to others or the
planet. The problem is that
most of us are unaware of
how our daily activities are
contributing to the problem.
It is this innocent guilt that
we need to resolve. In my
previous articles, connections were made between
seemingly harmless
activities and how they are
actually harmful. Hopefully, once the connection
between our behaviors and
how these behaviors are
increasing the greenhouse
effect, global warming, and
climate change people will
want to be a part of the solution. But how? What can
each and every one of us
do to reduce if not reverse
global climate change?
The first thing we have
to do is to lose our sense of
self-entitlement. We must
toughen-up. We must return to relying on our Godgiven abilities to endure a
little discomfort. It seems
like as soon as something
is not going exactly right,
we reach for a machine or
a product to fix whatever is
wrong rather than dealing
with it or working through
it with some good-oldfashion hard work. I am
grateful that our forefathers
and mothers did not need
an air-conditioner when
the daytime highs were in
the 80’s or a furnace when
the overnight lows were
in the 50’s. This attitude
is epitomized with a quote
heard from such a selfentitle person. She said,
“In the winter, we like in
warm enough in the house
to wear shorts, and cool
enough in the summer so
that we can sleep under
the comforter.” When I
questioned her on it, she
replied, “We don’t care; we
have the money, we just
pay the higher fuel bills.”
This waste does not need
to happen; this arrogant attitude is why global climate
change is accelerating and
not decreasing.
We need to ask and
remember what our grandparents would have done.
When they had a problem,
they found a solution.
They would create, fabri-
McDonald’s Egg Pledge
is a small step
Dear Editor,
McDonald’s pledge last
week to start using cagefree eggs is only a small
step in preventing staggering suffering endured by
millions of birds.
Hatcheries that annually
supply 200 million female
hens for U.S. egg production, including cage-free,
also kill the same number
of male chicks at birth by
grinding them up alive in
industrial macerators or
suffocating them slowly
in plastic garbage bags.
The female laying hens
endure a lifetime of misery,
crammed with 5-6 others,
in small wire-mesh cages
that cut into their feet and
tear out their feathers.
Eggs are common carriers of food-borne bacteria,
including Salmonella,
Campylobacter. Listeria,
and Staphylococcus. USDA
estimates that Salmonella
alone accounts for 1.3 million U.S. illnesses and 500
deaths annually.
Eggs contain saturated
fat and cholesterol, key factors in incidence of heart
disease, stroke, cancer, and
diabetes. They are a common cause of allergies in
children.
Waste from millions of
egg-laying hens ends up in
waterways, rendering vast
areas unsuited for recreation or water supply.
The good news for
compassionate, health-conscious, eco-friendly consumers is that our local supermarket offers a number
of delicious egg substitutes
and egg-free food products. Entering “egg-free” in a
search engine returns tons
of recipes.
Sincerely,
Payton Nicholson

parent to immediately wire
money to post bail or pay
for medical treatment or
car repairs. The scammer
typically asks for several
thousand dollars, and may
even call back again several
hours or days later asking
for more money. He or she
may claim embarrassment
about the alleged trouble
and ask the grandparent to
keep it a secret.
A variation of the scam
may involve two scammers
-- the first scammer calls
and poses as a grandchild
under arrest. The second
scammer, posing as some
type of law enforcement officer, then gets on the phone
with the grandparent and
explains what fines need to
be paid. Alternatively, the
scammer may pretend to be
a family friend or neighbor. A common theme of
this scam across the nation
is the caller’s request for the
grandparent to wire money
through Western Union or
MoneyGram or to provide
their bank account routing
numbers. Wiring money is like
sending cash; there are no
protections for the sender. Typically there is no way
you can reverse the transaction, trace the money, or
recover payment from the
telephone con artists. If you get a call like that
don’t believe it and don’t
send any money!
To sum it all up, there are
always con artist out there
trying to get their hands
on your money or account
numbers.
Never give out financial
information over the phone
or send money!

County.
Bowhunting guidelines have
changed in the U.P.
If you hunt during
archery season in Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, you
better take notice. The Michigan Natural
Resources Commission announced on June 11 that
some big changes are going
to take place in the U.P.
that will be enforced for
the current 2015 season.
Following the harsh
winters over the past three
seasons, which diminished
deer herds, the harvesting
of antlerless deer shall be
eliminated during archery
season only.
The hunters who have
already purchased combo
licenses for this coming
deer season have until September 20 to return those
licenses for a refund. They
may still use their current
deer license to take a buck,
and may still take antlerless
deer during gun season.
“The NRC asked the
DNR Wildlife Division to
present options to address the decline in deer
in the U.P. and associated
concerns by hunters,” said
Chad Stewart, the DNR
deer management specialist
for the state of Michigan.
“In May we brought forward six possible options,
and the NRC chose to
concentrate on two of those
options.”
According to the Michigan DNR, those options
were to do nothing at all,
or create the buck-only rule
during archery in the U.P.
“Deer hunting is an
important tradition in
Michigan’s U.P. and a big
economic driver for the
entire state,” said John Matonich, the state’s Natural
Resources Commission
Chair. “This decision by
the NRC will ensure that
tradition continues while
also providing prudent protections for the U.P. deer
population.”
For more information
about this rule change, or
any other changes regarding the Michigan 2015
deer hunting restrictions,
go to www.michigan.gov/
hunting. In the meantime,
make sure you tell everyone you know about this
rule change to make sure
everyone is on the same
page. The Michigan DNR
will also be spreading the
word as the best they can.
Michigan started tracking how many hunters
die each year 1970. Since
then, there has never been
a year when no one died
while hunting.
But 2014 was a first.
No fatalities and only ten
injuries were reported.
There was a case where
a 12-year old girl died on
a hunting trip on Drummond Island. But state
officials say it wasn’t
technically a hunting accident because the gun went
off accidentally in the car,
not while the family was
hunting.
Hunting deaths in
Michigan peaked in 1987
and have been, for the
most part, declining. The
records include all hunting
seasons, including firearm
deer, turkey, waterfowl
and more.
Volunteer teachers with
the state’s hunter education program are a big
reason why, according to
Michigan’s Department of
Natural Resources.

In fact, after a scoreless first
“It was a well played first
half, it probably should have

interception led to it being
8-3,” Luplow said. “Still, we
felt good about the performance in the first half, the
defense played well.”
The Pioneers opened the
second half with a strong
drive that reached the Mustangs’ 22 yard line, though
after being forced for a fieldgoal attempt, saw Dice’s
kick miss just wide right.
Meridian, ranked ninth in
division six racked off three
straight touchdowns and
two-point conversions from
there, putting the game out
of reach with a 32-3 lead.
“When they got a couple
scores on us it was hard for
us to keep our kids going
because our numbers are
so down, we just got tired,”
Luplow said.
Clare did end the night on
a bright note, getting a three
yard touchdown run by Ben
Bates and Dice extra point
to bring it to the 32-10 final.
This was the first time Meridian was able to top Clare
since 2005.
Vida finished seven-of-15
passing for 77 yards, with
Hunter Schaaf catching five
balls for 40 yards and Gabe
Denton making two catches
for 35 yards.
Bates led the ground
attack with 35 yards on 11
carries.
“We got a couple big play
and then we’d get a penalty
or something like that,”
Luplow said of the offense.
“We’re trying to utilize
Vida at quarterback, but he
was playing with a sprained
ankle. They had a good
defensive game plan against
us. They had a lot of athletes
on the edge.”
As for the 34-game
conference winning streak
coming to an end, Luplow
wasn’t all that broken up
about it.
“We’ve had a few runs
over the years, this one was
34 but we’ve had other over
20,” he said. “Eventually it’s
going to get broken, you just
try to keep it going as long
as you can but we’ve been
playing with that target on
our back and that’s just the
way it is. Everyone is going
to try and play their best
game against us and Meridian’s coach even said they
had to play a near perfect
game to beat us and they
thought they pretty much
played an error free game. If
that’s what it takes to beat us
then hats off to them.”
Clare (1-3 overall, 1-1
JPC) plays at Beaverton
(1-3, 0-2 tonight (Friday).
Beaverton lost 36-22 last
week to Roscommon. The
Beavers last topped Clare in
1990.
“We’re 1-3 too so we
can’t take anyone lightly,”
Luplow said. “Really, I
don’t think Beaverton is
down this year, they were
tied with Meridian going
into the fourth quarter. I certainly am concerned about
them, they’re better than
their record shows. They
know that Meridian beat us
so it’s going to be whoever is ready and has less
mistakes is probably going
to come out on top. We’re
struggling a bit but the kids
are playing hard and giving
effort and there’s nothing
more we can ask.”

Quick start propels Harrison to 19-6 win
Three second quarter
touchdowns turned out to
be all it needed. The Harrison football team topped
host Gladwin Friday,
notching a 19-6 Jack Pine
Conference victory.
“We always figure
Gladwin to be one of the
top teams so we are very
happy with the outcome of
the game,” Harrison head
coach Mike Petrongelli
said. “The kids played well
and the defense played
really well and we’re just
happy with how things
worked out.”
Jeremy Fillhard broke
a scoreless game with a
seven yard touchdown run
in the second quarter and
the Hornets added a 43
yard touchdown pass from
Kenny Haskell to Jared
Bennett and a two yard
plunge by Brent Veite all to
make it 19-0 at the half.
“In the first half we
moved the ball real well
on the ground and we
threw for a touchdown
too,” Petrongelli said.
“The second half we were
having some difficulties
with the snap after Haskell
injured his fingers late in
the first half. That seemed
to bother him from the
center-exchange to him.
We had some fumbles and
even though we didn’t lose
them that was enough to
derail some drives.”
While the offense
wasn’t able to score the
rest of the night, the defense held serve the rest of
the way, only giving up a
one yard touchdown run in
the third quarter.
“The defense seems
to be getting better and
better,” Petrongelli said.
“We moved the ball well at
times but we were always
able to come up with
stops when we had too
and forced some fumbles
and an interception too.
Gladwin is tough, they
play hard and keep coming
after you.”
Haskell finished with
57 yards on 13 carries,
Fillhard ran 11 times for 53
yards, Blayne Fowler carried 11 times for 43 yards
and Veite finished with 39.
Jared Given led the
defense with 14 tackles,
Will Dennis took down 10
and Bennett tallied nine.

Clare, who had yet to win a
Jack Pine Conference volleyball game in the young
season, made the short
trip to Farwell on Monday, claiming a four set
win. The Pioneers topped
the Eagles with scores of
25-18, 25-14, 21-25 and
25-16.
“We went into Farwell
with our minds in the game
and the team was ready to
play,” Clare head coach
Emily Blackburn said. “We
have had to adjust as we
have had a few girls out
due to sickness and injury
last week and this week,
this didn’t slow them
down though as everyone
has picked up and done
their share of playing as a
team.”
While the Pioneers had
a somewhat easy time
through the first two sets, a

hiccup in the third prevented a sweep of the Eagles.
Clare regrouped to finish
the night off nicely.
“The girls pulled
together and had a great
night of playing volleyball,” Blackburn said. “Our
passing was on target,
which led to Saleen Picard
and Annie Cole able to
finish each play with the
attack-kill. This was a win
that was well deserved for
the girls.”
Picard finished with seven kills on 16 attacks with
five aces and one block.
Cole had five kills, three
blocks and one ace and
Peyton Huebel had 13 assists, four digs and served
three aces. Cami Miller
had three kills, three aces
and was 15-of-15 serving
and Hannah Hofweber was
eight-of-eight at the service
line.
The Eagles were led by
Grace Saupe with six kills,
one ace, one dig and was
seven-of-seven serving,
Dani Hanna had three kills,
34 digs, five aces and was
16-of-17 serving good for
12 points, Lillian Albaugh
had three aces, three digs,
two kills and had 10 points
off of 12-of-12 serving,
Emily Vaughan had 12
assists, two digs and one
kill, Jaedalin Wilson had
21 digs and two assists and
Kali Wilkerson had one
ace.

Gladwin on Wednesday

Mid Michigan Community College barbeque a success
Over 2,200 people
attended Mid Michigan
Community College’s
Annual Barbeque and Fall
Festival on September 20,
2015. The event was successful again this year in
raising scholarship money
for MMCC students. In
its twenty-three years,
the event has raised over
$500,000 to assist students.
“Each dollar raised
directly supports students
through these scholarships,” said MMCC Event
Chair Carol Darlington.
“There are more students
than ever who need that
extra support.”
The festival is made
possible with the support
of countless volunteers and
the contributions of Family
Fare Supermarkets, the major food sponsor. They donate hundreds of pounds of
food and many volunteers
to help prepare it and assist
with the serving lines.
This year’s event
featured children’s games,
live entertainment, eighty-
four cars/trucks/motorcycles participating in an
MMCC-sponsored show,
an Imperial Wrestling
Entertainment exhibition, a
pet adoption event sponsored by the Clare County
Animal Shelter, and a Clare
County Arts Council show.
Inside the college, a health
fair with free screenings
and information from
various health care providers was well received by
festival goers.
This was the ninth year
for the College’s Timber
Trail 5K Walk/Run and the
third year for a 10K and a
half marathon run. Between all of the races, 106
participants helped raise
money for scholarships
through their involvement.
Each ticket also entered
attendees into a raffle for
giveaways, including gift
cards, a flat-screen highdefinition television donated by Wood’s Household

Krapohl earns $4800 for Farwell band
By Steve Landon
“The Northeast end parking
lot adjacent to the Farwell
High School Athletic Complex
came alive Friday September
18th for the Drive 4 UR School
fundraiser with Krapohl’s Ford
& Lincoln of Mt. Pleasant.
Visitors had a chance to test
drive a new Ford and enjoy a
tailgate party prior to the Eagles
first home football game of the
season. Working with students
and volunteers from the Farwell
Band Boosters the drive ran
from 1:00 p.m - 7:00 p.m.
Representatives from Krapohl’s
Ford Quick Lane Tire and Auto
Center were also on hand to do
vehicle inspections.
“This was our second
Drive4urSchool fundraiser at
Farwell High School. This
year, we worked with the Farwell High School Band. The
weather couldn’t have been better. Looked liked we were in
for some thunderstorms but we
didn’t get a drop of rain during
the whole event.
The fundraiser was a huge
success, we couldn’t have
done it without the help from

the Farwell Band Boosters. They promoted the event by
passing out fliers, talking about
it at the annual band open
house, they even promoted it
during the Farwell Labor Day
Parade. During the event, we
had band students come help
with registering test drives
and greeting people as they
came in.
Unofficially, we ended up
raising $4860.00 for the Farwell High School Band. That
money will go towards new
instruments, uniforms, camps,
etc.
Krapohl’s Ford & Lincoln
takes pride in working with
schools in our community. Drive4URSchool is a fundraiser
backed by Ford Motor Company. Every test drive earns the
school $20.00”, said James Yun
Drive4urSchool Coordinator.
Kraphol’s Ford & Lincoln is
one of the oldest Ford & Lincoln dealers in Central Michigan. They are very supportive
of the communities they serve.
If you’re in need of a new car
or repairs on an existing one
stop by their dealership on
Pickard Street in Mt. Pleasant.
