A walk to remember
By JACK RONALD
For Jo Ann Gierhart, the
Walk Against Cancer is all
about remembering.
Remembering her parents.
Remembering her brother.
Remembering friends.
And remembering that Friday
in 2011 when she received her
own diagnosis.
When she joins hundreds of
others on Saturday at the 14th
annual Jay County Cancer Society event at the Jay County High
School track, the Bearcreek
Township resident will have all
that on her mind.
“It’s really inspirational,” she
Saturday’s event inspires
local cancer survivor
said this week. “It’s a good
remembering time.”
A host of activities are
planned for Saturday, beginning
with bed races at 4 p.m.
A cancer survivor dinner will
be served from 5:30 to 7 p.m., and
registration for the walk begins
at 6 p.m.
At 8:30 p.m., there will be an
opening ceremony including a
balloon release, and the annual
luminary ceremony is set for
9:30 p.m.
“Actually, I started walking
before my diagnosis,” said Gierhart, an instructional assistant
at Judge Haynes Elementary
School.

Some of the farmers, agribusiness representatives and Purdue staff taking part in the Farm Management Tour get
a behind the scenes look at IOM Grain.
Tuesday stops included IOM, Johnson farm
By JACK RONALD
Purdue University’s 83rd
annual Farm Management Tour
drew hundreds to Jay and
Adams counties Tuesday and
today.
Farmers, agribusiness representatives, Purdue faculty, and
students toured IOM Grain’s
Portland operation and the Johnson family farm in rural Redkey.
IOM’s Ramon Loucks told a
crowd of about 250 how the company has successfully moved
into the marketing of food-grade,
non-GMO soybeans to consumers in not only the U.S. but
China, Japan and Singapore.
“Compared to the rest of the
United States, year-in-year-out,
we have higher oil content and
higher protein content,” Loucks
said. “Anytime you want to talk
quality … they’re talking (Indiana, Ohio, Michigan) soybeans.
They’re talking about our
region.”
Loucks took part in a panel
discussion led by Purdue agricultural economist Chris Hurt
and including Jay County
farmer Greg Miller, who produces soybeans for IOM.
The company has about 200 to
250 growers, though not all of
them are growing soybeans for
IOM every year.
“We are all about long-term
end user customers, and we are
all about long-term grower relationships,” said Loucks.
Soybeans raised for human
consumption in products such
as tofu bring a higher price per
bushel on the market than those
raised for animal feed.
“We do go after the premium,” said Miller. “That’s our
goal.”
Loucks explained that IOM
doesn’t see itself in competition
with huge companies like
Cargill but has instead identified a niche market.
“We’re a boutique market,”
he said. “We are a high end mar-

FORT RECOVERY —
Fort Recovery School
Board made preparations
Tuesday for a new school
year with a new superintendent at the helm.
The board hired several
new teachers, agreed to
purchase a new school van
and set elementary and
middle school student fees
for 2015-16. It also made
several moves to prepare
for new superintendent
Justin Firks to join the
school district.
Also joining the Fort
Recovery staff this year
after being hired Tuesday
will be fifth grade teacher
Jocelyn Meyer, middle
school teacher Chad Miller
and intervention specialist
Julie Billenstein. Miller
has served as an aide in
the middle school for the
last two years, while
Meyer and Billenstein will
be new to the district.
The high school still has
openings for a new business teacher, intervention
specialist and part-time
industrial
technology
teacher.
Board members Jose
Faller, Ginny Fortkamp,
Aaron Guggenbiller, Amy
Bihn and Dave Hull set elementary
and
middle
school student fees for
2015-16, with most going
up between $7 and $15. The
fees are: kindergarten $55.20; first - $62.12; second
- $64.15; third - $64.79;
fourth - $58.70; fifth - $53.90;
sixth - $66.70; seventh $67.90; and eighth - $62.75.
They also approved purchase of a new nine-passenger van from Cardinal
Bus Sales and Service,
Inc., at a cost of $41,284.
The board set the bond
for Firks at $50,000 with
Fort Recovery Insurance
Agency, approved allowing
him to attend meetings “as
he deems necessary for the
betterment of the school
district operation” and
agreed to let him hire
casual labor as needed.
All of those go into
effect July 13, when Firks,
who previously served as
principal at Fort Loramie
High School, officially
becomes superintendent.
He will replace Shelly
Vaughn, who will be the
new superintendent of
Mercer County Educational Service Center.
Firks has already spent
several days working with
Vaughn to learn about his
new job, and will continue
to do so until taking over
the position full-time.

Weather
In review
Portland’s weather station
measured a high temperature
of 80 degrees Tuesday. The
overnight low was 56.
Tonight’s low will be 64, and
thunderstorms with heavy
rain are expected after 5 a.m.
Thursday.
For an extended forecast,
see page 2.
The Indiana Academy for
Science, Mathematics and
Humanities and John Jay Center for Learning will host “H2O

ket. … The future looks good
(but) we’re only as good as the
last bushel we ship.”
Following the panel discussion, the group took guided
tours of the IOM plant, located
on county road 100 North in the
north Portland industrial park.
Three generations of the
Johnson family welcomed the
tour to their farm on county
road 1150 West. The family produces popcorn, seed soybeans,
and seed wheat.
This morning the tour moved
to Adams County, touring the
Sommer and Beer farms near
Berne and the Nidlinger farms
near Decatur.
Associated Press
Alabama Gov. Robert
Bentley has ordered Confederate flags to be taken
down from the grounds of
the state Capitol, the latest
move to banish the divisive
banner from state capitals,
store shelves, license plates
and monuments.
Bentley issued the order
this morning, one week
after police say a white man
killed nine black church
members in Charleston,
South Carolina in a racially
motived attack.
On Tuesday, South Carolina lawmakers voted
overwhelmingly to consider removing the Confederate flag from their Statehouse grounds and other
politicians took aim at Civil
War-era symbols across the
South, saying change is
imperative after police said
nine black churchgoers
were slain in a hate crime.
Prodded by Gov. Nikki
Haley’s call the day before
to move the flag to a museum, lawmakers approved a
measure enabling a flag
debate by a vote of 103-10 in
the House and a voice vote
in the Senate.
The House vote brought a
standing ovation after
Democratic and Republican leaders sponsored the
measure in a show of
uncharacteristic unity.

Remember...
Continued from page 1
That was about 13 years ago after
the death of her brother, Jim Keller
of Minnesota, from colon cancer.
“The first one was for my brother,
and at that time I needed it,” she
said.
“I think it’s an inspiration to sit up
in the stands and see all the lit candles. When you walk around and see
all the names … you are reminded
about them.”
Walking in his honor and his
memory, she was inspired and
touched as she saw name after name
of people she knew who had been
lost to cancer or were still battling it.
Then her own diagnosis came.
It was July 1, the Friday before the
Fourth of July weekend, and she
was alone when she learned she had
breast cancer. By the following Tuesday, she had had a bilateral mastectomy.
“You’re just thrown into it,” she
said. “I cried. … I had always sort of
figured it would happen.”
Though other family members
had died of cancer, Gierhart’s breast
cancer is not the type that is hereditary.
Chemotherapy and radiation
treatments at the Cancer Center in
Muncie followed, and though Gierhart doesn’t feel comfortable with
the concept of “cancer free” she has
gotten good reports from her followup visits every six months.
“I am on a medication for 10
years,” she said.
Her advice to others: “Be tested.
Be aware of your body.”
She warns against denial.
“It really upsets me when people
say, ‘I don’t want to know,’ she added.
“It’s not like it’s going to go away.”
And for others who are facing a
diagnosis, Gierhart said there is
help and support out there.
“I just had to talk to somebody,”
she recalled.
“Some people are very private. … I
feel like if there’s any way I can help
anyone else, I will.”

County.”
The state will be available to provide technical assistance to the
county, Adams said.
Earlier this year, Gov. Mike Pence
signed into law a bill authored by
Sen. Pat Miller, R-Indianapolis, and
sponsored by Rep. Ed Clere, R-New
Albany. It made syringe exchange
programs legal in Indiana for the
first time – but only if community
officials can convince the state it
has a Hepatitis C or HIV outbreak.
The law lays out procedural requirements that local communities must
meet for the state to declare an
emergency and authorize a needle
exchange.

“It’s gone well,” said
Vaughn, who has served
as superintendent since
2012. “We’ve had the

Where is the

Nightmare
Your TV cable’s on the fritz.
Your Xbox is corroded.
Your iPod sits in useless bits.
Your Game Boy just imploded.
Your cell phone? Static’s off the scale.
Your land line? Disconnected.
You’ve got no mail — E, junk or snail.
Your hard drive is infected.
So here you idle, dumb and blue, with children,
spouse and mother — and wish you knew what people
do to entertain each other.

Victim must share her secret
DEAR ABBY: Six months ago,
my best friend’s fiance raped me.
He is a man I’ve known for many
years, and I didn’t see it coming. I
became pregnant but had a miscarriage two months later. I
recently had to have a hysterectomy from damage incurred from
the rape and the miscarriage.
I never went to the police or
pressed charges, and very few
people are aware of the whole
horrific experience. I have been
beyond traumatized by what happened.
My best friend knows nothing
about it, and I have been unable to
face her since that awful night.
We text now and then, and she
keeps asking why I have suddenly
dropped out of her life. I don’t
know if I can tell her the truth.
We were as close as sisters, and I
honestly miss her like crazy, but I
can’t be part of her life if this
monster is in it.
Do I tell the truth? Or do I just
shut her out of my life? This has
taken a physical and emotional
toll on me. Please give me some
advice. — MISSING A FRIEND IN

How much has attitude changed?
By JACK RONALD
The ugliness of it was casual,
and that made it even uglier.
Growing up in Jay County in
the middle of the last century,
my generation was awash in
casual racism. It was something
we inherited from those who
went before us, but by the 1960s
it was also something we knew
made no sense.
Stop by a coffee shop in, say,
1963 and you were almost certain to hear “the N word,” casually. No big deal.
Ours was a generation that
found bigotry infested our childhood games. A couple of weeks
ago, I wrote a column about a
game of tag; and I’m still bothered by the fact that part of the
ritual before each game
involved the phrase, “Round as a
moon, dark as a coon.”
Ours was a generation that
routinely said, “Eeny, meeny,
miney, moe, catch a (Fill in the
Back
in the
Saddle
blank) by the toe” at recess time
at elementary school. A few
years later, some smarter parents were insisting on the word
“tiger” in its place.
And yet, here we were in the
white bread American Midwest,
with no more than a handful of
black families to encounter in
our everyday lives.
What was your opportunity
for interaction with an AfricanAmerican when you were growing up in Portland in the 1960s?
Her name was Wanda Watkins.
She was a sweet and smart kid
who lived on West Water Street,
and I think her family attended
the A.M.E. Church that once
stood on East Water next to
what is now Jay Community
Center.
What was your opportunity
for interaction with an AfricanAmerican when you were growing up in Dunkirk during the
same period? It might have been
George Miller, a biracial kid
who attended Dunkirk schools
for a time while he was living
with his grandmother. He later
went on to a distinguished —
and I mean distinguished —
career as an astrophysicist.
But in those days, he was just
a black kid with red hair and
freckles.
Beyond school, there were a
handful of A.M.E. families.
Ruth Nelson and her sister,
India Evans, did housekeeping
for a number of families, including mine. And Ruth is a permanent part of my childhood memories. She was like an extra parent.
While there was no tension,
while there was no overt bigotry,
there remained this hard-toexplain undercurrent of disparagement.
Maybe some of it had to do
with the division between rural
and urban.
We, after all, were hayseeds.
Despite the presence of a handful of families, most of us associated African-Americans with
the big city.
But the real answer is that the
Civil War wasn’t over.
The Union had won on the battlefield, but the Reconstruction
Era and the first half of the 20th
century belonged to the South.
Jim Crow was alive and well.
Every day’s papers brought
news of civil rights workers
being harassed or beaten or
murdered.
And in a very real way, the
South — the hateful principles
that led the Confederacy to war
— set the tone for small town
Midwestern America in that
era. Hollywood had glamorized
it with “The Birth of a Nation”
and “Gone with the Wind.” So
small town Indiana was ripe territory for George Wallace and
Lester Maddox and the vestiges
of the Klan that still hung
around.
That was then. This is now.
But how much has changed?
That seems a valid question in
the wake of last week’s horrific
church slayings in South Carolina.
Have we made any progress?
Have we cast off the infestation
of casual bigotry?
Or are we, when you peal back
the niceties, not all that far from
where we were a few generations back?
I’d like to hope that the Jay
County of today is different
from the Jay County of my
youth. But I think all of us need
to ask ourselves whether that is
actually true.
Water issue
can’t be ignored
Take this church seriously
By ABDUL HAKIM-SHABAZZ
IndyPoltics.Org
If you’re one of the people who
don’t take The First Church of
Cannabis (TFCC) seriously, you
should, because they do.
It might seem easy to dismiss
Church Founder and Grand Poobah
— I refer to him affectionately as the
High Priest — Bill Levin based on his
appearance, but I warn you that you
underestimate him at your own peril.
Levin is a lot of things, but stupid
is not one of them.
He took an idea I came up with in a
blog post and turned it into a faith
that has some Indiana lawmakers
and law enforcement trying to figure
out exactly what to do.
As you know the Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA) goes
into effect on July 1 and the first service at TFCC starts at 12:01 a.m. and
concludes with a “ceremonial light
up.”
It might seem easy to dismiss them
at first, but it’s important to remember that under RFRA, the government has to cite a “compelling state
interest” to crack down on your religious practice. Levin can make a
good argument that their use of marijuana is part of their legitimate religious faith.
•TFCC has been recognized by the
IRS as a legitimate church.
•They have procured a site (which
has been used as a church).
•They’ve outlined procedures on
how the service will be conducted.
•There is federal case law on the
books that provides an exemption
regarding controlled substances
under the federal RFRA statute. It
was a unanimous federal appellate
decision, by the way.
•In many cases where defendants
US PS 125820
Abdul
HakimShabazz
tried to use a religious exemption as
a defense they were doing things
with marijuana that had nothing to
do with religion, like major drug trafficking or driving under the influence.
•And Indiana, like many other
jurisdictions, has taken steps to
lessen the penalties for marijuana
possession.
Also, there is the question as to
what will law enforcement do? I
spoke briefly with Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department Chief
Rick Hite. The chief said they are
keeping a close eye on the situation,
but he was determined that in a day
and age of camera phones and
YouTube clips, he was not going to
provide anyone with “cheap entertainment.” So if anyone is expecting
an Elliott Ness type raid on July 1 at
TFCC, they are probably going to be
disappointed. And I can also promise
that cameras will be rolling the night
of the first service.
And if this goes to trial, law
enforcement knows (and prosecutors
privately admit) they are going to
have trouble prosecuting the case
because RFRA is a valid defense.
And here is some more food for
thought: Can Indiana lawmakers
come back in January and try to
amend RFRA without reopening the
whole can of worms that started this
controversy in the first place?
... they also
don’t want to go
anywhere near
anything that
might have RFRA
attached to it if
they can help it.
Trust me: I am not saying anything that hasn’t already been discussed by folks who get paid to pay
attention to this stuff. I am just saying it publicly. Even my friends in
the governor’s office privately admit
that the TFCC is not a priority. Of
course they also don’t want to go
anywhere near anything that might
have RFRA attached to it if they can
help it.
So if you think this entire situation is a joke, here’s a newsflash, a lot
of people are taking this very seriously. There is only one person who I
know who is enjoying the entire
spectacle. And he’s incredibly good
looking and is great at making life
more interesting here in Indiana.
And for the record, I, uh he, does
not smoke pot. But he will be there
for the inaugural service.

The Washington Post
When rivers, streams
and reservoirs are low, as
they are in California,
people start digging holes.
Large, unseen pools of
water are trapped in the
spongy rock and soil of
the world’s aquifers, sometimes fairly close to the
surface, sometimes deep
underground.
Tapped
groundwater can save
communities from economic or humanitarian
catastrophe. But in too
many places, humans are
depleting this crucial
reserve, just as climate
change begins taking its
toll.
A NASA study released
this last week provides
authoritative estimates of
the state of 37 major
aquifers around the globe.
Using satellites that measured minor variations in
the earth’s gravitational
pull between 2003 and
2013, researchers found
that 21 of these aquifers
are being run down.
A handful of massive
aquifers in Africa, the
Middle East and Central
Asia were worst off, seeing
little to no refilling to offset withdrawals over the
decade of study. The Arabian Aquifer System and
the Indus Basin were particularly troubled. But
Western countries haven’t
done a great job of aquifer
management, either. Miners in Australia’s Canning
Basin and farmers in California’s Central Valley are
tapping
groundwater
resources at unsustainable rates. Groundwater
already accounts for more
than half of California’s
water use, a proportion
that may well continue to
rise.
In wealthy countries
with well-developed governing
institutions,
there’s simply no excuse
for failing to take care of
this vital resource. The
best way to promote
rational consumption is to
end government subsidies, explicit or implicit,
for overusing water, particularly in dry areas, then
to establish functioning,
transparent and efficient
markets for surfacewater
and groundwater alike.
Yet places such as California still operate on a system of confusing historical water rights and
claims that aren’t conducive to conservation or
to getting water where it’s

most needed. The state is
finally starting to regulate
groundwater, but its leaders should aim for fundamental reform.
The challenge is harder
in poorer parts of the
world, where historical
and cultural claims to
groundwater are also
often
strong
but
economies are less diverse
and institutions are weaker. In the long term, the
solution is similar to that
in developed nations:
Remove irrational incentives to overuse or inefficiently divert water, then
build transparent markets
that force people to
account for the full costs
of the resources they use.
In the short term, transition costs might be high
and political forces incapable of making such a
leap.
to
J.S.
According
Famiglietti, the author of
the NASA study, the first
thing to do is establish the
of
groundwater
size
reserves, in a process akin
to estimating subterranean oil reserves, so
that people know how
much is left. From there
should come effective
monitoring of groundwater use, pinpointing who’s
taking how much and for
what purpose. This information will make it easier
to identify opportunities
to use water more efficiently, particularly in
agriculture, without suddenly pushing large numbers of people out of agricultural work. Along the
way, economic growth will
diversify employment and
reduce opposition to
broader reform, a 2003
United Nations report
notes, and institutions
might strengthen enough
to effect broader reform.
Many people didn’t need
satellites to know that
aquifers are in trouble.
They are drilling deeper
and deeper for groundwater. The poor can’t afford
to construct ever-deeper
wells, so they will be out
of the game in stressed
areas. Governments cannot ignore this issue for
long.

France addresses spying revelation
By LORI HINNANT
and ANGELA CHARLTON
Associated Press
PARIS — Angry and embarrassed, France summoned the
U.S. ambassador today to
respond to the revelations by
WikiLeaks that the U.S. National Security Agency eavesdropped on three successive
French presidents and other
top officials.
The release of the spying revelations appeared to be timed to
coincide with a final vote today
in the French Parliament on a
bill allowing broad new surveillance powers, in particular to
counter terrorism threats.
French President Hollande,
calling the U.S. spying an
“unacceptable”
security
breach, convened two emergency meetings as a result of
the disclosures about the NSA’s
spying. The first was with
France’s top security officials,
the second with leading legislators, many of whom have
already voted for the new surveillance measure.
Hollande was to speak today
with President Barack Obama
on the issue.
The documents appear to capture top French officials in Paris
between 2006 and 2012 talking
candidly about Greece’s economy, relations with Germany, and
American spying on allies. While
there were no huge surprises, the
release of the documents late
Tuesday angered and embarrassed French officialdom.
The top floor of the U.S.
Embassy, visible from France’s
presidential Elysee Palace,
reportedly was filled with spying
equipment
hidden
behind
trompe l’oeil paintings of windows, according to the Liberation
newspaper, which partnered
with WikiLeaks and the website
Mediapart on the documents.
U.S. Ambassador Jane Hartley
was summoned to the French
Foreign Ministry. Hollande is
also sending France’s top intelligence coordinator to the U.S.
shortly, to ensure that promises
made after earlier NSA spying
revelations in 2013 and 2014 have
been kept, the spokesman said.

Officials say the

TEHRAN, Iran —
Iran has hardened its
stance less than a week
before the deadline for
a nuclear deal, with its
top leader rejecting a
long-term freeze on
nuclear research as it
ratified a bill banning
access to military sites
and scientists.
Ayatollah
Ali
Khamenei also insisted that Iran will only
sign a deal if international sanctions are
lifted first, which
could further complicate the negotiations.
The ratified bill, now
binding law, calls for
all sanctions to be lifted the first day of
implementation.
The supreme leader
has backed his negotiators amid criticism
from hard-liners, but
his latest remarks may
narrow their room to
maneuver ahead of a
self-imposed June 30
deadline.
said the U.S. must do everything
it can, and quickly, to “repair the
damage” to U.S.-French relations
from the revelations, which he
called “a very serious violation
of the spirit of trust” between
the allies.
“If the fact of the revelations
today does not constitute a real
surprise for anyone, that in no
way lessens the emotion and the
anger. They are legitimate.
France will not tolerate any
action threatening its security
and fundamental interests,” he
said.

Very few lawmakers rose
to say the flag should stay;
some said they were saving
speeches for what promises to be an emotional
debate later this summer.
Lawmakers then prayed
for state Sen. Clementa
Pinckney, who joined the
legislature in 1997 and
who, as pastor of the
Emanuel
African
Methodist
Episcopal
Church in Charleston, was
among the dead.
“I ask that in the memory of Mr. Pinckney that we
are generous in spirit, gracious in our conversation
and please — even if we
disagree, let’s agree to disagree agreeably,” Democratic Rep. Gilda CobbHunter urged her colleagues. “Those nine families have shown us how to
do it. I would strongly suggest we take a cue from
them.”
Dylann Storm Roof, who
faces murder and gun
charges in the church
attack, had posed in photos
displaying
Confederate
flags and burning or desecrating U.S. flags, and told
a friend that he was planning to do something “for
the white race.”
Haley’s call to put the
Confederate flag in a museum was quickly seconded
by leading Republicans
including U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina and Senate Majority
Leader Mitch McConnell,
giving others a political
opening to announce their
moves. Many cited the
church slayings as they
abandoned the long-held
position that even debating
the status of the flag would
be too racially divisive
today.
“Last week’s terrorizing
act of violence shook the
very core of every South
Carolinian,” South Carolina House Speaker Jay
Lucas said in support of
the measure.
And once South Carolina took action, other states
moved quickly.
Mississippi
House
Speaker Philip Gunn
called for removing the
Confederate emblem from
the state flag. Both Democrats and Republicans in
Tennessee said a bust of
Confederate general and
Ku Klux Klan leader
Nathan Bedford Forrest
must go from the Senate.
Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe wants vanity license
plates depicting the Confederate flag replaced.
McConnell joined Kentucky’s Republican nominee for governor, Matt
Bevin, in calling for the
removal of a statue of Confederate President Jefferson Davis from their state
Capitol’s rotunda.
Big businesses also took
action: Wal-Mart Stores
Inc., Amazon.com Inc.,
EBay Inc., Target Corp.
and Sears Holding Corp.
announced they would no
longer sell merchandise
featuring the Confederate
flag. And the Valley Forge
Flag Co., which has sent
flags into battle and to the
moon, said it won’t make
them anymore.
“When you have a sea
change moment like you
have with the tragedy in
Charleston, we felt it was
simply the right thing to
do,” Valley Forge Vice
President Reggie VandenBosch said. “We don’t want
to do anything that causes
pain or disunity for people.”

the Hudson Family Park amphitheatre in Portland.
The free 7 p.m. concert presented
by Arts Place is to help make up for a
cancellation by the Field Band’s Concert Band and Soldiers’ Chorus.
Those groups were scheduled to perform together March 1, but could not
travel to Portland because of snow.
That was “a real disappointment,”
said Eric Rogers, executive director
of Arts Place.
Arts Place had been waiting four
years to present the Soldiers’ Chorus,
and anticipated Jay County High
School’s auditorium to be full, with
more than 800 in attendance.
But the musicians couldn’t make
it, and a busy touring schedule meant
their next availability is not until fall
2017. The groups will return then,
with the specific date yet to be deter-
mined, Rogers said. In the meantime,
the Field Band offered Arts Place an
open date in the Jazz Ambassadors’
schedule.
“I wanted to see if we could work
together and give the Portland community a concert,” said Adam Getz,
tour coordinator for the Jazz Ambassadors.
The date fits between a Wednesday
concert in Indianapolis and a Saturday performance in Wilmington,
Ohio. The Concert Band and Soldiers’ Chorus are also playing a
string of Indiana and Ohio venues.
The military bands have the U.S. split
into five regions, Getz said, and it is
currently the Army Field Band’s
turn to play concerts in Indiana’s
region.
Though the Jazz Ambassadors
clearly have a focus on jazz, there will
be something for everyone, Getz said.
“The concert is designed to appeal
to people of all ages and all interest
levels in music,” Getz said.
The concert will go through each
period of jazz’s evolution, Rogers
said, from its early period, through
swing and bebop, and into modern
jazz.
Patriotic music will also be featured. Veterans in attendance will be
encouraged to stand up when their
branch’s song is played.
Master Sergeant Marva Lewis will
be a “fantastic featured vocalist,”
Getz said. Lewis sang in an a cappella choir in college, performed in the
U.S. Army Solider Show and has been
a principal vocalist for the Jazz
Knights at the United States Military
Academy.
After the concert, the band members will stay and talk to community
members.
“A lot of times veterans will stop by
and share their story,” Getz said.
Tickets are not required for the
concert. In case of inclement weather, the concert will be moved to the
Jay County High School auditorium.

Sunburn is something
nearly everyone will
experience at least once
in
their
lifetimes.
Though men, women
and children should
look to prevent sunburn
entirely, sometimes sunburns occur, making
those exposed to too
much sun uncomfortable and possibly even
dealing with considerable pain.
Sunburn is marked by
red, sensitive skin that
can be hot to the touch.
Inflammation and blistering may occur. The
Skin Cancer Foundation
says that while sunburn
may seem like a temporary irritation, it can
cause long-lasting damage to the skin. Treating
sunburn may require
several
different
approaches.
