Post 72 steps up to help
said. “We as an organization do
not help fund individuals directly,
but we are doing this with the
understanding that the people in
need will receive some help from
these organizations we are giving
the money to.”
The total donation Post 72 gave
to help was $1,250, with $250 of
that coming from an unexpected
source.
“Post 125 in St. Petersburg,
Fla. sent a donation to us to
include with the $1,000 we
raised,” Wilson explained. “The
donation came from a woman
who is originally from the Linnsburg area who heard about what
happened and wanted to help. I
don’t know her name, but I know
that her donation is appreciated.”

Post 72 is always in the spirit of
giving to a good cause, according
to post commander Dale Wilson.
“We want to help the people
who got hit by this (tornado),”
Wilson said. “We like doing
these things for people that need
the help.”
David Johnson, the executive
director of the Montgomery United Fund For You was on hand to
accept the donation from Wilson
and Post 72.
“We are working with the
Mace United Methodist Church
and the Salvation Army to help
us identify families who would
like and need the help,” Johnson

Speaking at Rotary
Lafayette’s city council
joined Tippecanoe County

Have you heard about the
weird clown sightings in
North and South Carolina
lately? Seems that weird and
often creepy clowns have been
spotted trying to lure kids into
woods with candy. Just another
sign that the world isn’t what it
once used to be – and why many
of us over the age of 60 miss
Ozzie and Harriet.

Leon Miller took the podium for the weekly Rotary meeting Wednesday at the Crawfordsville
District Public Library. Miller is the president of Water for Life in Haiti. His father founded
the company. According to Rotarian Ron Hess, Rotary helped drill 10 wells for the people in
Haiti and the water takes care of 3,000 to 4,000 people. Now the Crawfordsville Rotary club
is getting ready to build a solar power plant there to help bring electricity to things like their
school. If you want to know more about the water project, go to www.wflhaiti.org. In addition,
the Rotarians are looking for more speakers. If you have an interesting topic and would like

From shenanigans to Southmont to life on farm
Although my gal this week was
only in 4-H a few years, the rest of
her family are all 10-year-members.
My guy was a member who showed
cattle all his 10 years. Their son and
daughter showed cattle and were in
10 years, two of their grandchildren
were too and the youngest, age 13 is
working on it. I was quite impressed
and he said, “4-H is a great organi-
zation to teach kids so many responsibilities!” Agreed!
These two met on a blind date.
She had taken piano lessons from
Waveland’s Mr. Norman Walker,
although grew-up in the New Ross
area. One of the other students she
played with during the recitals was
Roxie. Roxie had asked if she was
interested in dating a nice boy.

4-way stop at Oak and Market
The good news is it might be safer heading to Darilicious for a milkshake now. The bad news might be found in going to Darilicious more often and outgrowing that favorite pair of pants. The Indiana Department of
Transportation is putting in a four-way stop at Market and Oak, or where
Market curves half-a-block from Darilicious and Morgan’s Glass & Paint.
The work was done last night and should be finished up sometime today.

League turns focus on redistricting
The League of Women
Voters encourages all citizens to vote. A presidential
election year is exceedingly important including
contests also for Senator,
Congressmen, Governor,
state and county offices.
Redistricting continues
to be of prime concern as
many citizens feel “What’s
the point?” with districts
across the country having
been established by partisan interests. Out of 465
seats in the U.S. House of
Representatives, only 56
are considered competitive.
What about Indiana?
Not one of the nine Indiana
Congressional seats is considered truly competitive.
In 2014, 93.6 percent of
our elections had candidates who were incumbents. In all, 90.6 percent
of these candidates had no
primary challengers, and
46.4 percent had no opposition at all. Sadly, Indiana
ranked last in the nation
in voter turnout in the last
general election. Lack of
competition is a significant
reason for our embarrassingly low voter turnout.
The League believes
statewide this is a non-partisan issue. It is about
being fair and true representation for the voter.
The LWV of Indiana has
partnered with Common
Cause Indiana to create a
state-wide
coalition calling for real
redistricting
reform in
Indiana. The
coalition
partners
include: Hoosier Environmental Council, Citizens
Action Coalition, ACLU,
NAACP, and the Indiana
Farmers Union.
The goal of the coalition
is to have an independent
nonpartisan commission
established to determine
voting districts in the state
of Indiana following the
2020 Census. Some guidelines the coalition recommends include:
* Districts should be
compact and contiguous.
They should respect existing political and geographic boundaries, such as
cities and counties.
* The drawing of
districts should consider
factors such as ethnicity,
language, socio-economic
background and location,
rather than past voting
record.
* Incumbency should not
be considered.
* Within the parameters of the federal Voting
Rights Act, population size
should be one of several
factors considered when
drawing districts.
Colorado man arrested,
charged in Darlington
By Matt Rogers
[email protected]
DARLINGTON — A
man from Colorado was
arrested Friday afternoon
after someone saw him
suspiciously walking
around the Darlington
area.
Robert Jung, 34, has
been charged with one
felony count of burglary
while armed with a deadly
weapon as well as misdemeanor charges of theft,
marijuana possession,
reckless possession of
paraphernalia and criminal
trespass.
According to Captain
Jeremy Hughes of the
Montgomery County
Sheriff’s Department, they
received a call around 1
p.m. Friday afternoon
about a suspicious man
walking around a Darlington neighborhood.
Also according to
Hughes, they received
another call about a vehicle with Colorado plates
parked on a resident’s
property and that the caller
saw a man walking out of
his/her garage in the 5500
block of East 500 North.
Deputies were dispatched
and not long after searching the area in which the
vehicle was parked were
able to locate Jung, who
was reportedly found with
some items stolen from a
vehicle in the area while
also being armed with a
pistol.
Upon searching Jung’s
vehicle, deputies said they
also found a long gun
inside the truck.
As of Wednesday, the
sheriff’s department said
they did not believe that
Jung had entered any
homes, only garages and
at least one vehicle. There
were no reported threats

Hughes said that nothing
of significant value was
stolen, and the items had
been returned to their
owners.
As of Wednesday,
Hughes said Jung had
posted bond and was
released.
* Transparency is of the
upmost
importance. All
meetings of
the commission should be
public. Maps,
records, transcripts and data should be
available to the public, and
adequate opportunities for
public hearings should be
provided, including review
of the final plan.
Finally, the commission
should provide written
justification for the final
district boundaries.
The goals of this effort
include: lessening of
citizen cynicism in terms
of voting, more citizen
participation as voters as
well as candidates, less
polarization based on the
fact candidates will need
to listen to more diverse
constituents, and an open
system that doesn’t appear
to be predetermined.
The LWV encourages
Crawfordsville to join
other communities around
Indiana which have already
have passed resolutions in
support of an independent
redistricting commission to
make recommendations for
redistricting following the
2020 Census.
The LWV of Montgomery County is also sponsoring a local public meeting
to present a film on gerrymandering and discuss redistricting issues Thursday,
Sept. 15 at Crawfordsville
Public Library at 7 p.m.
The Indiana General
Assembly special Study
Committee on Redistricting is having two public
hearings in Indianapolis
Sept. 19 and Oct. 17. The
Indiana Redistricting Coalition urges the Indiana State
Legislature to create a
citizen-led commission for
fair redistricting to enhance
the future of our state!
The League of Women Voters, a non-partisan, multi-issue
political organization, encourages informed and active participation in government, works
to increase public understanding of major policy issues, and
influences public policy through
education and advocacy. As an
organization, the LWV does not
support or oppose individual
candidates or parties. All men

It’s Chronic Pain Awareness month
The Paper
September is Pain
Awareness month, and
the care team at Putnam
County Pain Management
is dedicated to educating
the community on the
impact of chronic pain,
along with the options for
those who suffer have to
find relief. The purpose of
Pain Awareness month is
to create greater understanding among health
care professionals, individuals and families who
are struggling with pain
management, the business
community, legislators,
and the general public that
pain is a serious public
health issue. The month
is also focused on raising
awareness about chronic
pain to be more readily
recognized and better
understood without the
stigma.
American Chronic Pain
Associations ‘Pain Awareness Campaign’ was first
established in 2001 to help
raise awareness of chronic
pain. What is chronic
pain? Chronic pain is defined as ongoing or recurrent pain, lasting beyond
the usual course of acute
illness or injury or more
than 3 to 6 months, and
which adversely affects
the individual’s well-being. There are everyday
lifestyle changes that can
help a person alleviate
some of this pain, such
as eating a healthy diet,
exercising, participating in
life and quitting smoking.
There are times when
these healthy lifestyle
changes aren’t enough
for the individual that is
experiencing chronic pain.
When additional medical
attention is needed, this is
where a pain management
program can help.
Chronic pain also affects
the individual’s quality
of life. More than 70%
of those that suffer report
feelings of depression,
trouble concentrating, less
energy and the inability to
sleep well.
Putnam County Pain
Management Center is
proud to be located close

Health Statistics survey indicated that low back pain was the most common (27%),
followed by severe headache or migraine pain (15%), neck pain (15%) and facial ache
or pain (4%).
• Back pain is the leading cause of disability in Americans under 45 years old. More than
26 million Americans between the ages of 20-64 experience frequent back pain.
• Adults with low back pain are often in worse physical and mental health than people
who do not have low back pain: 28% of adults with low back pain report limited activity
due to a chronic condition, as compared to 10% of adults who do not have low back
pain. Also, adults reporting low back pain were three times as likely to be in fair or poor
health and more than four times as likely to experience serious psychological distress as
people without low back pain.

Colts, NFL coming to Nicholson
By Matt Rogers
[email protected]
The Crawfordsville
Board of Public Works
and Safety met Wednesday morning to discuss
the annual Play 60 event
sponsored by the NFL
that happens at Nicholson
School.
This year’s event will
take place Oct. 4, with the
group and participants and
their parents meeting at
the Crawfordsville District
Public Library on Washington before riding their
bikes to Nicholson. There
will be an Indianapolis
Colts trailer set up with
various games outside for
the kids and their parents
to take part in.
And maybe a little
more?
“There may be a Colts
player there, which would
be a pretty big deal,” Dale
Petrie, the city’s director
of operations and deputy
mayor said. “It isn’t for
sure yet, but it is happening on an off- day for
them, which could work
out.”
Petrie also mentioned
that the big issue that the
board discussed about
the event was whether to
close off a portion of Main
Street for the ride to the
school. It was decided that
the closure wouldn’t be
necessary because the ride
would only take about 10
minutes to complete.
Among other new
business that the board
discussed briefly during
a short meeting was a
noise ordinance abatement
request for a band to play
at Creekside Lodge Friday
until 11:30 p.m., which is
past the 10 p.m. normal
ordinance required time.
The abatement was
granted.

Kaep? I am
In full disclosure, I have
no experience
growing up
in a minority
community. Nor
have I ever been
O. MARLOWE
afraid in my own JOHN
The Good Sport
neighborhood.
I have never felt that opportunities were for someone else,
not me, and I’ve never been
frightened of the police.
I’ve also never been an elite
athlete, a Super Bowl quarterback. Nor have I been a
multi-millionaire. And I’ve never had the chance to hear Colin
Kaepernick’s complete political
philosophy.
So with those admissions, I
still want to weigh in on the San
Francisco 49ers former Super
Bowl, now second-string quarterback’s refusal to stand during
the National Anthem before
NFL football games.
“I am not going to stand up
to show pride in a flag for a
country that oppresses black
people, and people of color,”
Kaepernick told the NFL media
following the preseason Green
Bay Packers game, when he sat
on the bench during the anthem.
“There are bodies in the street,
and people getting paid leave,
and getting away with murder.”
Agree or disagree with the
premise, Kaepernick is ashamed
for us.
Insulting the Americans who
served our nation, who believed
that flag was symbolic of the
no-tions and ideals by which we
live in freedom — no less is the
concept that all men are created
equal; whose coffins lie beneath
that flag — is equally shameful.
I know Kaepernick has said
that was not his intention, and
now has decided to kneel in respect to the fallen. But the first
impressions are made, and it is
time to stop this protest.
There, I said it. The NFL
should have, but I guess it is up
to me.
I resent the notion that just
because I want Kaepernick to
stop insulting the symbol of
our American freedoms I want
him to forfeit his Rights to
free speech. Ridiculous. The
Supreme Court has determined
that not all speech is protected
speech. And this is a case where
the milquetoast NFL should
have sanctioned the action while
supporting the cause.
Encourage Kaep to run for
office. Help him start a foundation. Protest against neighborhood liquor stores. Resolve
community “food deserts.” Be
politically active against police
departments where racism
roams freely. I can see dozens
of ways the two could move this
issue forward without condoning actions that insult millions
of Americans.
Speak! But, do so with the respect that your cause deserves,
Kaep. More importantly DO!
Encourage us to DO!
Kaepernick’s protest is not
inspiring change, it is only
spotlighting anger. Kaepernick
and the NFL have decided to
take this protest into the stands.
You know it is going to happen.
Someone will sit during the
anthem, and then an alcohol
charged mob will try to settle
the issue on the spot.
I’m mad at Kaep — not because I want him to stay quiet or
to go away. I’m mad, because
I don’t know what he wants to
achieve … and I’m pretty sure
he doesn’t either. Yet, he chose
the most volatile way to get
nowhere.

Athenians in unfamiliar territory
By Scott Smith
[email protected]
The Crawfordsville Athenians
find themselves in unfamiliar
territory entering week four of
the high school football season.
They are 1-0 in Sagamore
Conference play for the first
time since 2011. They will look
to improve to 2-0 for the first
time since 2008 when they travel to the Dawg Pound to battle
the Frankfort Hot Dogs Friday
evening.
The Hot Dogs, under the
tutelage of first year head coach
Joel Sienicki, enter the game at
1-2 and 0-1 in the Conference
after falling to Tri-West last
week, 28-0. Frankfort picked
up a win in week one over
Western, 22-6, before falling to
Logansport in week two 29-14.
The Athenians, coming off a
huge 28-27 win over Western
Boone this past Friday, will
look to continue to control
time of possession and give
themselves a chance to win the
football game late.
The two teams are almost

mirror images of one another,
as far as offensive output. The
Hot Dogs average nearly 185
yards rushing and just 52 passing. The Athenians are just a
tick better averaging nearly 187
yards on the ground and 142
through the air.
Malik King leads the Hot Dog
rushing attack with 227 yards,
or six yards per carry, while
Alonzo Chavez has 127 yards
on 33 carries.
Dylan Shelley has completed
47 percent of his passes for 154
yards and two touchdowns. He
also has 97 yards rushing, good
enough for 7.5 yards per carry.
The Athenians are led by
quarterback Trent Johnson.
He’s completed 16 of 34 attempts for 427 yards and four
touchdowns. Johnson is also the
leading rusher with 207 yards
on 45 carries. Classmate Caden
Jones has 142 yards on the sea-
son, good enough for 4.3 yards
per carry.
Crawfordsville will look to
their defense, which is led by
Calvin Chaney’s 34 tackles, to
come up with a big stop and use
their ability to take large chunks
of time off the clock. They will
need to do that Friday to keep
moving forward in Larry Getts

Game time is set for 7 p.m.

Mounties and Stars rebuild on the run
By John O. Marlowe
[email protected]
NEW MARKET —The Southmont Mounties have a chance
to accomplish something Friday
night that they have not achieved
since October 14, 2011.
On the heels of a come-frombehind win over North Montgomery last week, the Mounties
can win two consecutive Sagamore Athletic Conference football games, if they can slip past
the Western Boone Stars.
Both the Mounties (1-2, SAC
1-0) and the Stars (2-1, SAC 0-1)
have similar personnel challenges. Key players are gone, and
fresh faces fill the lineup.
Western Boone’s battery of
a quarterback Nathanial Bye
(Ohio Northern, baseball) and
wide receiver Kaleb McKloskey (Marian) have moved on to
college, and the two racked up
nearly 61% of the Stars offense
in 2015.
Junior Jack Gilliam moves into
quarterback, and the newcomer is
finding his way completing 8-of22 passes in the early season.
Although the Stars are relying on
the run, head coach Justin Pelley
is not ready to abandon the pass,
just because there is a new QB.
“I think you actually have to
work on it more.” The fourth
year head coach said. “We aren’t
asking Jack to do as much as we
did last year, but we still want the
pass to be a part of our offense.”
In the meantime, Western
Boone is relying on the legs of
senior Zach Belcher, who leads
the Stars with 5.4 yards per rush.
On the defensive side, Logan
Marsh is gone, but Belcher and
senior Kyle Hysong remain to
anchor the inside.
The growing pains at Southmont are beginning to ease a bit
with the Mounties’ stunning win
over rival North Montgomery.
The south-siders had monster
second and third quarters to erase
a 24-point deficit to the Chargers,
on their way to a 41-31 victory.
Junior Kyle Nunemaker had
a bruising 197 yards on just 26
carries. Boone Welliever had
a score, as did Kaleb Swick.
Antonio Burks had two scores,
the last being a 55-yard catch
and run from quarterback Hunter
Chadwick.
Chadwick had a break-out
performance as the starting quarterback, connecting on 60 percent

of his tosses for over 120 yards,
while gaining 57 more yards in
the option offense.
“For us to be successful,
Hunter has to keep making good
decisions and pass effectively.”
Mounties head coach Desson
Hannum said. “Our keys are always the same—are we executing
the offense, are we protecting the
ball, are we avoiding the penalties?”
On defense, the Mounties’s
goal is to stop the run, and disrupt the Stars’ young QB in the
process.
“We are trying to take some
things away from them, and
move the quarterback around
some. If we can force them to
pass, we are doing good things.”
The two veteran coaches aren’t
looking for surprises from an
opponent they know so well.
Chargers look to bounce back against Lebanon
By Scott Smith
[email protected]
North Montgomery will look to
put together four quarters as they
host Lebanon Friday evening in
a pivotal early season Sagamore
Conference matchup.
“We haven’t played well in the
second quarter of a game thus
far.” Charger head coach Josh
Thompson said. “We were able
to survive the first two weeks,
but last week, we weren’t able to
recover.”
The Chargers (2-1, 0-1 SAC)
will look to their defense to slow
down the Tigers high-powered
offense that comes into the game
averaging nearly 439 yards and
33 points per game. Lebanon is
a pass-heavy team throwing for
nearly 308 yards per game, while
also gaining 131 on the ground.
The Tigers (2-1, 1-0 SAC)
whose only setback was a 55-54
setback to Boone County rival
Zionsville are led by quarterback
Evan Stambaugh. His has thrown
for eight touchdowns to his four
interceptions while also passing
for 925 yards through their first
three games. His favorite target
is Clayton Barber, whose five
touchdowns, are a team-best as
well as his 401 yards receiving.
However, just when you game
plan to stop the run, junior Jaylen
Washington has the speed and

LINDEN – Macy Zachary scored
three first-half goals, and another
at the start of the second, as the
Southmont Lady Mounties defeated
the North Montgomery Lady Chargers 4-0 in a county and Sagamore
Conference soccer match Wednesday
evening.
The Chargers dominated time of
possession to start the game by keeping the ball in their zone for much of
the first half but were unable to put
the ball in the back of the net.
“We dominated possession the
first 20 minutes, which is something
that we’ve been working on, so I
was happy to see that.” Charger
coach Julie Hodges said. “It was a
positive that we were able to control
it, but we didn’t finish nor get a shot
on goal.”
Southmont head coach Maddie
Burton was complimentary of defense during that time.
“They stood tough for us tonight
and did a great job.” Burton said.
“After the break, we started moving the ball upfield as a team, which
we weren’t doing at the start, and
helped give North possessions.” she
continued. “Give them credit, they
came out hungry.”
The Mounties, playing for the
second consecutive night, showed no
signs of fatigue. Ally Swank assisted
Zachary on her first goal, and Zachary’s final goal came at the 33:00
minute mark of the second half.
“Macy’s improved a ton this
year.” Burton said. “She’s done a
Megan Merica finished with team-high nine kills.
Kaleigh Sharp had 21 digs and three aces. Kasey

Union Chapel fish fry benefitting injured young couple
The Paper
Union Chapel United
Methodist Church of
Morton has scheduled its
annual community Fish
Fry for Sept. 24 with a
special purpose.
Proceeds from this
year’s event will be used
to benefit Logan and
Megan (Gray) Hedrick, a
young couple who were
married in late June. They
were seriously injured in
an ATV crash on Aug. 3.
Megan and Logan suffered
serious injuries and neither
of them have been able to
return to work yet.
In addition to this being
very huge financial concern, it’s also an emotional
burden for Logan and
Megan as they continue to
deal with the situation of
Logan’s best friend, Payton Pritchard, who is still
in St. Vincent’s recovering
from the accident.
Megan grew up in the
community and Union
Chapel is her home
church. Her grandparents and family have
been a part of the church
family for many years.
Her grandfather is now
deceased, but her grandmother regularly attends
church services and is
an active member of the
Ladies Group.
As youngsters, Megan and her sisters were
always part of the VBS
program, and the youngest
sister still comes to help
every year.
The group “Just Hope”
will be performing inside
the church, starting at
approximately 6:00 pm.
Members of the group are
involved in worship teams
from several churches
in the Terre Haute area.
They have joined their
talents together to worship

The Hedricks were married in late June and seriously injured in August. The band Just Hope will play at the benefit.

morning worship. (There
will be no charge or “love

Union Chapel Church is
located on U. S. Highway
36, just one mile west of
Morton. Coming from the
east (Bainbridge) or from
the north or south (Greencastle or Crawfordsville),
it’s four miles west of the
junction of 231 and 36.
Coming from the west on
36 (Bellmore or Rockville), it’s about six miles
east of Raccoon Lake.
Serving will begin at 4
p.m. and go until 8 p.m.
The menu will include
fish, barbecue, hotdogs,

2017. Not sure that’ll be
a real big affair as every
other year they’ve been at
a fair or cattle show. In
fact, they had just gotten
back from a cattle show
with their grandson when
we talked, as well as the
State Fair.
During high school,
he was involved in FFA,
played tuba in band,
basketball and baseball
which he dearly loved.
She was in choir, band,
Sunshine and FHA.
Our gal grew-up on a
farm that is now a Century One. Our fellow began

He drove on the back
roads to school so he
could get out at noon to
help on the farm during
planting and harvest.
“He can’t sit.” He loves
the out of doors. His
grandfather, father, now
he and his brother have

Their two children are
Rodney and Robin. Rodney is principal at Bainbridge and is married to
Jackie Whitley. She went
to Purdue and Rodney
to ISU. Betty Gillogly,
Jackie’s old babysitter
thought she and Rodney would make a great
couple, introduced ‘em

ever after. She works at

The family name goes
back to farmers arriving
from Monroe County,
Kentucky about 1863.
Besides farming, the
family has been actively
involved in the Browns
Valley Christian Church
for many years. He is
a deacon of the church.
They lived in the same
home for many years but
the last several have been
at Lake Holiday where
they enjoy getting the
deck boat cruising.
Upon graduation from
Waveland (Class of 23
in 1965), he went for an
8-week Ag Course and
joined the Army Reserves
at Waveland where he
remained for six years.
Upon graduating from
New Ross with a class
of 32, she gave music
lessons for six years.
She also worked for her
father, one of my favorite
guys, Delmas Chadwick,
at the Montgomery Ward
Catalog Store. From
there, she went to work
at the South Montgomery
School Corporation as
treasurer for 27 years.
She retired three years
ago.
Think I gave you way
too many hints this week,
as I’m sure by now,
you’ve concluded that
Gary and Karen Simpson
are my guests. When I
asked what they liked to
do for fun, she pepped up
with, “He sits and watches the cattle.” Guess it’s a
bit more advanced, as I’m
thinking he might have

Gary and Karen Simpson obviously enjoyed their time.
to feed ‘em, groom ‘em
and the like, but overall,
he just loves being and
working outside. His father, Gerald, told him not
to retire and sit down because, “You’ll just die,”
and he’s not planning on
doing that. Loved Gary’s
dad, a very special man.
Gary also said about
himself, “Gpa’ likes to be
involved in the grandkids’
activities!”
We talked baseball
quite a bit. They said
there was just a super
bunch of people (Harveys
Cooks, Mitchells, Bazzanis) who helped them
with the baseball park
at Lake Waveland park,
which was thanks to Larry Servies for getting that
worked out. Gary told
one funny story that Mark
Whitecotton wouldn’t
hit the ball, but would
just stand there. Finally,
Gary said, “Mark, for
every hit you get, I’ll buy
ya’ a milkshake.” He got
five hits, five milkshakes
(at Rafferty’s) and drank
every one!
An amazing lady, Karen is a breast cancer survivor and we both agreed
Franciscan St. Elizabeth
Hospital and Dr. Pearce
are awesome. She enjoys
reading and puzzle books
and told me I needed to
read (her current book)
Homefront soon. Gary
and Karen enjoy eating
out with friends, especially Bud and Tresha
Meadows (wonderful
folks). Gary also likes to
watch Old Westerns and
IU & PU sports. Speaking of PU, his nephew
Kyle Rice drove the
Purdue Train to the Lake
and made a big hit. Kyle
was thrilled to drive the
train for two years before
he graduated.
Although they went to
Florida for a while the
last two winters, they
both feel it’s crowded and
so are discussing possibilities for this year. Had
lots of good laughs with
these two, reminiscing
about the good old days
and all of Gary’s shenanigans and want to wish
them luck in the future
and thank them so much
for letting me feature
their life in this week’s
Around The County.
