Dinners serve broad community By Garth Snow gsnow@kpcmedia.com

The word “community” takes on a broad meaning each Thursday evening at Aldersgate United Methodist Church. The free, 6 p.m. meal welcomes everyone. Volunteers from outside the church join with cooks and servers from within the church. Student supervisors belong to Aldersgate or to churches across the county; they attend nearby Homestead High School, or Fort Wayne Community Schools, or Canterbury High School, or Carroll High School. Guests come from across Getz Road and from across county lines. They come for a meal, and they come for the company. Some of those who are being served choose instead to serve others, said the Rev. Derek Weber, the lead pastor of the congregation just north of Time Corners. “It’s creating a sense

Volunteers prepare plates to carry to guests at their tables at Aldersgate United Methodist Church. “We serve them as they would get served if they were going out to dinner with their family at a restaurant,” said volunteer Jared Thompson.

of belonging,” said Weber, who last month completed his seventh year at Aldersgate. “Some of the people who are very faithful about serving are not here on Sunday, but they feel a

part of the church.” “We have young people and adults who serve as volunteers, and many of them are church people and many of them are folks who’ve heard of the dinner,” Weber said.

Corned beef sandwich sale is temple’s top fundraiser Congregation Achduth Vesholom’s 13th annual Corned Beef on Rye — Sure to Satisfy fundraiser also offers the public a chance to visit the campus at 5200 Old Mill Road. Dine-in hours are 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 30, at the Rifkin Campus at 5200. Pickup and delivery are available. “Just sit down and chit chat and have a nice lunch,” said Bonnie Pomerantz. The project is the temple’s largest annual fundraiser. “It takes about a hundred people to pull this off — all volunteers,” Pomerantz said. Proceeds go into the general operating budget for everyday expenses, including many programs open to the general public. “It gives us an oppor-

tunity to share what we could call a taste of Judaism, to share it with the community,” said fundraiser co-chairman Kris Gray. “It also invites the community to come to our facilities.” Gray said the Rifkin Campus at 5200 is designed to consolidate different Jewish entities, including expansion to accommodate the Fort Wayne Jewish Federation. That organization’s move to the Old Mill Road campus became official on June 1. He said the fundraiser is consistent with an ongoing effort to identify with the 46807 neighborhood where the temple is located and with the broader Fort Wayne community. “Hey, come on down and share some corned beef, in a cafe style,” he said. Find fax-able order forms through the Corned

Beef Fundraiser link at templecav.org. The boxed meals include an overstuffed one-thirdpound corned beef deli sandwich, coleslaw, dill pickle and brownie and drink. Meals are $14 if ordered by Thursday, Oct. 23. Meals are $15 after that date and at the door. Orders of 12 or more sandwiches can be delivered for a charge of $6 per address. Delivery orders must be placed by Oct. 23. Also this year, the public may order corned beef at $12 a pound, or extra rye bread, pickles or brownies. The temple traces its roots to 1848 as Indiana’s first Jewish congregation. Learn more about the congregation’s history and programs, its fundraising campaign, and the Jewish Federation of Fort Wayne by visiting templecav.org.

Financial Focus

Heed Message of “Save for Retirement Week” You won’t see it on the calendar, and it doesn’t inspire any greeting cards, but National Save for Retirement Week is here again. The goal of this week is self-explanatory, but what does it mean to you? Are you vulnerable to the possibility of reaching retirement without sufficient financial resources? If so, how can you ease this risk? Let’s look at the “vulnerability” issue first. How prepared you’ll be for retirement — or at least how prepared you think you’ll be — seems to depend, not surprisingly, on whether you are currently participating in a retirement plan such as a 401(k) or an IRA. Consider these statistics, taken from the Employee Benefit Research Institute’s

2014 Retirement Confidence Survey: • Nearly half of workers without a retirement plan were “not at all confident” about their financial security in retirement, compared with only about one in 10 with a plan. • 36% of workers say they have less than $1,000 in savings and investments. Of this group, 73% said they and their spouse did not have a retirement plan, compared to just 11% of those with a plan. Clearly, it pays to contribute to your 401(k) or other employer-sponsored plan, such as a 403(b) or 457(b). And, even if you do have a 401(k) or similar plan, you may want to consider funding a Roth or traditional

IRA. Besides contributing as much as you can afford to your retirement plans, what else can you do to help boost your retirement savings? For one thing, try to control your debts. It’s not always easy, but try to consistently live within your means and make wise spending decisions. Every dollar you don’t spend on debt payments could be going toward your retirement savings. While it’s essential that you save and invest for retirement, you can’t forget other objectives you may have, such as helping pay for your children’s college education. Of course, if you’re like the vast majority of people, you don’t have unlimited

resources — so working toward two major financial goals at the same time can certainly be challenging. Nonetheless, a college education can still be a springboard to a successful career, so you may well feel that you should do everything within your power to help your kids through school. How can you balance the two important goals of investing for your retirement and for your children’s college expenses? Your best move may be to start saving for college just as soon as possible — even when your children are quite young. By starting early, you’ll put time on your side, so you can put away smaller amounts each year than if you waited until the years

right before your kids head off to school. Consider investing annually whatever amounts you can afford to a tax-advantaged college savings vehicle, such as a 529 plan. By investing as much as much as possible in your retirement plan, managing your debt load and balancing your retirement goals with other key objectives, you’ll be honoring the message of National Save for Retirement Week.

County government structure on ballot By Doug LeDuc dleduc@kpcmedia.com

Sitting before Allen County voters on Nov. 4 is a decision on whether to restructure their county government — a decision that is stirring debate among residents about what defines fair, efficient representation. The current structure of Allen County’s government — a county commission board with three members to govern — dates back to 1824. At this time, the county’s population was 996, according to a panel discussion hosted by the New Haven Chamber of Commerce. The panel debated the pros and cons of the proposed reorganization. The change would replace the three commissioners with a single county executive, and expand the county council from seven members to nine. In emphasizing his belief that the current structure is outdated, Matt Bell, speaking on behalf of the Regional Chamber of Northeast Indiana, noted that 1824 is the year the

first steam engine was introduced, Beethoven’s 9th Symphony premiered and the leading medical treatment of the day was blood letting. Since then, advances have been made in the medical and technology field, and Bell suggested during the panel discussion that the structure of Allen County’s government is impeding progress and is in serious need of improvement. “Will we fit in or will we stand out?” Bell said. “Do we have the courage to be great? Modernizing local government is an opportunity to say yes to economic development, it’s an opportunity to say yes to job growth. It’s an opportunity for Allen County to be a forward-looking community and not a backward-looking community.” On the other side of the issue, Roger Hadley, a farmer and Allen County president for the Indiana Farm Bureau, said the current structure endured for 190 years because it served residents well, providing the democratic representation residents

want for progress, as well as the checks and balances they need to prevent problems or undue interference from government. Hadley said the changes “would reduce representation for every single citizen

of Allen County while consolidating power in the hands of a single county position.” Hadley also raised concerns about the cost associated with the new structure.

DINNER from Page A1 Volunteers need not make a longtime commitment, he said. “It’s an effective means of meeting that service need.â€? “And we also have members of other churches. Some of the neighboring churches will send a delegation,â€? Weber said. Maddie Weber, the pastor’s daughter, was one of the ďŹ rst student leaders when the church began offering the meals in January 2011. She went on to graduate from Homestead, and is now a sophomore at Wittenberg University in SpringďŹ eld, Ohio. â€œâ€Ś I started helping with the dinners when it ďŹ rst began and was on a planning committee, went on the serving team and then was one of the supervisors,â€? she said.

Aboite & About • October 3, 2014

“One of my favorite parts of the dinners is being able to form relationships with the people who come. It’s really amazing to give back to the community by serving a meal and also by building relationships and forming connections with them. It’s really nice seeing people from my church and other people from the community so willing to serve and help others.â€? Maddie Weber was on hand to help serve some of the recent meals. So was Jared Thompson, who is credited with being the ďŹ rst person to suggest the dinners, in 2011. Thompson graduated from Carroll High School. He joined the dinners on two recent Thursdays before returning for his junior year at Indiana University in Bloomington. “Our church had done a lot of programs for

Everyone welcome. people all across the country and even going internationally with our trip to Ecuador,â€? he said after one of those dinners. “But I felt we were really lacking the connection to the community immediately surrounding us.â€? Thompson started the conversation, which has kept growing for four years. “I met with some people here at the church as well as some people with Gethsemane [Lutheran Church] and a couple other similar programs, and then by that fall we had a team together that was working on making it a reality, and then by January 20th, 2011, we were serving our ďŹ rst meal,â€? he said.

The church studied the question thoroughly before taking on the dinner, Thompson said. “We wanted to make sure before we started, before we got off the ground, that we had about six months worth of ďŹ nances available to us,â€? Thompson said. “We were able to do that through some fundraising efforts. We even had a practice meal for everyone in the church as a fundraiser that brought in a good deal of money. But since then we’ve seen continued support from the church community, and the community around us, and we are in very stable ďŹ nancial See DINNER, Page A13

Adults and teen volunteers serve guests at 6 p.m. each Thursday at Aldersgate United Methodist Church.

DINNER from Page A12 condition.” Carroll senior Stephanie Wolfe is among the rotation of teens who serve as dining room coordinators. The students welcome the diners and offer prayer. Wolfe and other Carroll students became familiar with the meals via Thompson and the school speech and debate program. She also has her own home church, Wallen Baptist Church, 10 miles from Aldersgate. “I love the community outreach,” she said, “and especially it being at a church, not only are we

feeding them physically — we are meeting that need — but also spiritually, and providing a sense of community for these people. Some of them are regulars every week. “I feel that the relationships we are able to build with these people and also helping them to grow spiritually in their relationship with Christ, that’s really important to me.” “Quite a few of our mainstay volunteers that have stepped up into leadership are kids who did not go to church here and go to Carroll and are younger than Jared was when he was involved,” said Jennifer Thompson,

Jared’s mother. “And our adult leaders are just amazed. We have homegrown church kids here who are helping, too. I think what they find out is they enjoy serving these people, and they see how kind and thoughtful and appreciative they are.” About 25 volunteers report each week to cook and serve the meal. Cooks arrive as early as necessary, and servers arrive at about 5:30. The result is a quality meal, Thompson said. “Some of our cooks even cook completely from scratch,” he said. “It’s pretty incredible.” Everyone is welcome. “We don’t check

anything. We don’t have any kind of requirements to be a guest here,” Thompson said. “It’s about coming, enjoying your time. We have servers here who actually come and serve the people. It’s not a soup kitchen; you don’t come here and go through a line and get your meal plopped onto your plate and then go and sit down. It’s truly a community here. We serve them as they would get served if they were going out to dinner with their family at a restaurant.” Anyone interested in volunteering may call David Carter, Aldersgate’s director of volunteers, at 432-1524. Recent dinners have served about 120 guests. “It is a way for us to spread the word of Christ and spread the good news just through our actions,” said Wolfe, the Carroll senior. “I think most of our volunteers are very good about not pressing it on the people, but everyone is willing to engage in conversation if someone is interested.” “I see it as something

that’s very important in my life, and I don’t try to hide it,” she said. (Does your church provide community dinners or other public

assistance? Share the word through the Times Community Publications’ Community Calendar. Call Garth Snow, editor, at 426-2640, ext. 3321.)

An Eagle Marsh trail guide tells Saint Elizabeth Ann Seton Catholic School preschoolers about monarch butterflies. The 4-year-olds learned about the life cycle of the butterfly, including its need for milkweed plants on which the butterflies lay their eggs. Students and their parents hiked the trails as guides pointed out frogs, butterflies and the sound of crickets. Eagle Marsh, a property of Little River Wetlands Project, is open for scheduled visits by school groups.

Dr. David Reichwage and Team at Fort Wayne Smiles

Offering Strickland Facelift Dentures® To Fort Wayne and Area Patients Fort Wayne- Dr. David Reichwage and the Team at Fort Wayne Smiles recently added a new denture technique to their cosmetic and laser dentistry practice. This innovative procedure creates beautiful and natural looking dentures with increased stability and comfort to denture wearers through a sophisticated process that pays careful attention to each patient’s unique physiology of chewing and facial characteristics. Traditional dentures often cause that dreaded “denture look”. This includes characteristics such as: the lips appear thin and roll inward, sunken face and wrinkles, teeth that are hidden and front teeth that are too short and back teeth that are too long, a shortened face, a weak chin. Dr. David Reichwage’s Strickland Facelift Denture technique offers new dentures that are created with an adept eye for aesthetics, rejuvenating patient appearances with facelift-quality results. Dr. David Reichwage and the Fort Wayne Smiles team received training from Dr. Rod Strickland, the author of the new technique, giving them insight into the causes of denture pain, and the collapsed appearance of many denture wearers faces. The Team at Fort Wayne Smiles is able to help patients who have been wearing dentures for years or who are looking for their first denture. For more information about Dr. David Reichwage , the Team, their services, and Strickland Facelift Dentures™, visit their website at fortwaynesmiles.com or call 260-426-1086 or e-mail fortwaynesmiles@yahoo.com.

Church members turn Talents into Treasures

Frightening fun or a serious scare? Visitors make their own choice at the Haunted Castle & Black Forest at Auburn and Wallen roads. The frights are courtesy of the Saint Vincent Boy Scouts Troop, sponsored by Saint Vincent DePaul Catholic Church at 1502 E. Wallen Road. Park at the Saint Vincent School, and follow the directions to the attractions. “It’s really two different things,” said Assistant Scoutmaster Keith Hedrick. “The Black Forest is more attuned to your older kids who want to be a little more spooked. The Haunted Castle is more of a fun house, and we have kids going through it from on their parents’ shoulders to adults.” “There’s also a night that we keep the lights on for kids who want to get a feel for it,” he said.

Talents into Treasures will offer artisan crafts and foods from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 18, at Christ’s Community Church, 10616 Liberty Mills Road. Artisans and craftsmen who are members or friends of the Aboite Township church will offer their one-of-a-kind goods. Woodworkers, seamstresses, knitters, artists, cooks, bakers, jewelry makers, painters, jam makers, gift basket assemblers and others will present their specialty items. A sale features baked goods and specialty food and dessert items. Proceeds help support the projects of the Women’s Ministries team at the church and provide funds for the Bag Ladies projects that are created and donated to local charities including Love Inc. in Huntington, Hospice Home on Homestead Road, and the church-sponsored

Black Forest abounds with frights By Garth Snow

Julie Ward paints Dick Wolfe’s face in character at the Haunted Castle & Black Forest.

The “lights-on” night is Sunday, Oct. 12. “We don’t try to go over the top in scares because we want it to be a family event,” he said. “We don’t want any nightmares.” The two-tier attraction spooks guests of all ages through Saturday, Nov.

1. The Castle opens at 7 p.m. The Forest opens at dark. The attraction is open every Friday and Saturday, plus the last three Thursdays and the last four Sundays. “We’re open on Thursdays and Sundays from dark till 9:30, and we’ll start letting people in

at 6:30,” Hedrick said. “And then on weekends we’re open until 11:30 Friday and Saturday. “We have a lot of kids and scouts that work the event, and we want them home to be able to go to school the next day,” he See BLACK, Page B2

Friendship Ministry for community members with disabilities. The sale was held for the first time five years ago by a group of women in the church who found themselves referred to as “The Bag Ladies.” They took their name from the tote bags they made to hold handmade crib quilts and crib sheets that they created to donate to needy families. The program expanded and now, among other projects, they fill each of the handmade bags with one handmade baby quilt themed for a boy or a girl, two handmade or purchased crib sheets, several infant size “onesies,” infant socks, sleepers, burp cloths, and other essential baby items. The items are finished, and the filled bags are donated to the charity for distribution. Since the Bag Ladies began in 2008, nearly See TALENTS, Page B7

Chapel builds fitness expo on Bible example of Daniel By Garth Snow gsnow@kpcmedia.com

An Aboite Township church is taking a fitness lesson from the Bible. The public may benefit, too, from 2-4 p.m. Saturday afternoon, Oct. 18, at The Chapel, 2505 W. Hamilton Road. Separate walks will accommodate various ability levels. Children’s games and fitness resources will be available. The Daniel Dash and Fitness Expo will cap a six-week series of health lessons taken from the book of Daniel. “Each week is something different, having to do with faith, food, fitness, friendship and focus, and we’re challenging people to grow in those areas to become healthier individuals,” said Becca Graf, the director of children’s ministries at The Chapel. Drawing from the Bible, she explained that Daniel was in captivity as a young man and was asked to be part of the king’s court. “He was served food that his people and his culture deemed unhealthy to eat,” she said, “and so Daniel

challenged his superior to allow him and his three friends to eat nuts and vegetables and fruit only for 10 days, and at the end of the 10 days to compare him to the boys who were eating the king’s food, and their supervisor found that they were healthier and wiser than the rest.” Graf said the themes are discussed during the weekend services. “And people are also encouraged to join what we call a life group, eight to twelve people who meet at various times and places and go through the Bible study together based off the Daniel Plan,” she said. The goal is a more balanced, healthier individual, Graf said. All activities are free. She said the Danny Dash for children is a half-mile run. The first 150 kids who register receive a free T-shirt. Registration begins at 2 p.m., and the Danny Dash begins at 2:45. There is no registration for the Daniel Dash, a family run/walk, which starts at 3:15 p.m. Inflatables and field day games will be available for the children. Local vendors and other ministries will offer resources on faith and fitness. Graf said church

member Kristin Meier suggested the church outing. “Kristin is kind of the vision behind the day,” Graf said. “We just felt there was a need in the community to be good stewards of health and wellness,” Meier said. “I think a lot of people are starting to see that the Daniel Plan has a lot to offer. It’s not a diet. It’s a healthy lifestyle approach.” “It’s just nice to see our church get on board with it and helping change the culture,” Meier said. Meier said Rick Warren, the pastor at Saddleback Church in Lake Forest, Calif., noted the health issues in his congregation, and wrote “The Daniel Plan: 40 Days to a Healthier Lifestyle.” “You’re not able to work out your calling in life if you’re overweight,” Meier said. “Whatever you want to do — ride a bike or hula hoop with our kids — any activity is what you should be doing instead of doing nothing,” Meier said. The Rev. Rick Hawks is senior pastor of The Chapel. Learn more at thechapel.net.

Enjoy Day at the Farm By Garth Snow gsnow@kpcmedia.com

Oak Hill Farm in Roanoke plans its eighth annual A Day at the Farm and third annual Cross Country Gallop on Sunday, Oct. 5. “Every year we hear that it has been a wonderful experience, and each year it improves,� said Brenda Malcolm Stoffel, the owner of the therapeutic riding center at 4982 E. Station Road. This event celebrates the accomplishments of the students and raises money for their participation in the therapy program, riding equipment and the needs of the horses. Registration begins at noon. Stoffel said she hopes for 200 runners and walkers. The cross country 5K run begins at 1 p.m. Registration is $15 a person or $35 for a family of four. Find a registration form online.

Family activities and kids’ dashes also begin at 1 p.m. “We will have a rigorous 5K and an easy 5K cross country trail, and a halfmile walk for children and others who cannot run a 5K but want to participate,â€? Stoffel said. At 2 p.m., the children’s horse show, a rafe, and a silent auction begin. Food will be available for purchase. Pumpkin carving and hayrides will be available. From 3-5 p.m., the band Blue Bird Revival will perform. Admission is free, Stoffel said, but the public may support by donation or by participating in the silent auction, or through freewill donations at the dessert table. Some Oak Hill Farm logo shirts and about 30 baskets will be available for bid. Basket items range from a night out with a movie to gifts from various

organizations. Stoffel owns and operates the farm that serves about 35 students, and is the therapeutic riding instructor. “It’s all going to help with our children’s lessons, our special needs equipment, anything that is necessary for the kids to help them function,â€? she said. She said the not-forproďŹ t farm uses all volunteer labor. Interns are enrolled from the University of Saint Francis and Huntington University, and other university students earn volunteer hours. Oak Hill Farm also is working with Ball State to develop an awareness of the beneďŹ ts of horse therapy for children, she said. For details, visit oakhillfarm.org, or ďŹ nd the Facebook page. Call Stoffel at (260) 672-8199, or email her at oakfarm49@yahoo. com.

Kuehnert Dairy Fall Festival in full swing By Garth Snow gsnow@kpcmedia.com

For 107 years, the Kuehnert family shared the homestead with the dairy cows. The farm became a little more crowded last fall, when Kuehnert Dairy Fall Festival welcomed about 1,500 schoolchildren and 4,500 other visitors. The family and 300 dairy cows trying it again this year. “We’re very excited,” said Sarah Kuehnert. “We feel that last year was a huge success.” “One of our favorite things was a hayride — a farm tour,” she said. “The dairy industry is special to our hearts and it’s neat that people wanted to come out and learn about the cows and how we care for them. They also love the cows, which is exactly what we wanted to accomplish — to expand

people’s education of the dairy industry and to expand family life.” The festival runs continues every Friday, Saturday and Sunday in October. Hours are 6-10 p.m. Fridays, 10 a.m.-10 p.m. Saturdays, and noon-5 p.m. Sundays. Admission is $8. Children 2 and under are admitted free. Kuehnert Dairy is at 6532 W. Cook Road, at U.S. 33. “We are open for special tours and events throughout the year, but the Fall Festival is when we are open the five weekends,” Kuehnert said. “But you can always schedule something by appointment.” Call 417-1918, or email saf982@hotmail.com. The admission price includes all the activities, including the corn maze and the straw mountain. There is an extra charge for a pumpkin, should a child wish to paint

a pumpkin and take it home. Food costs extra, too. “We have gourmet grilled cheese sandwiches made right here,” Kuehnert said. “The signature sandwich is the Mousetrap, and it has three kinds of cheese.” “We also do hot dogs and then we have fresh-squeezed lemonade in a souvenir cup, and soft-serve ice cream, and also milk, milk jugs, hot chocolate and water,” Kuehnert said. “We also sell smores kits to cook over a campfire.” “We have Spookley shirts for kids,” she said. “He is a unique pumpkin from a book, and he is a spokesman for bullying prevention.” Adults might prefer a shirt created just for the Fall Festival. Visitors like to trace the corn maze by flashlight. “You’re more than welcome to bring your

The center of the festival, though, is the dairy. “We have robotic milking this year, and a viewing area,” Kuehnert said. “So it’s going to be pretty neat.” Kuehnert’s is taking reservations for tours on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, through Oct. 22. The grounds also can be

reserved for private events such as birthday parties. “We want people to see what we do on a day-to-day basis, and then make their own family memories,” Kuehnert said. Kuehnert’s is a Hoosier Homestead Farm. That Indiana State Department of Agriculture program recognizes farms that have been owned by the same family for more than a century.

Masons plan outreach at Glenbrook Square mall Masonic Lodges and related organizations will greet the public and answer questions at the Northeast Indiana Masonic Expo, from 10 a.m.-5 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 11. The groups have secured a space at the Sears entrance to Glenbrook Square, 4201 Coldwater Road. Ron Buskirk organized the event on behalf of the Masons. Glenbrook General Manager Brian Cote said any group that would like to contract for a similar opportunity to build community awareness may contact him at brian.cote@ ggp.com.

Buskirk is the leader of Waynedale Lodge No. 739. He said the outreach builds on an awareness initiative begun by state Masonic leader Daniel Barenie, of Michigan City. “For many years, everyone has thought we were a secret organization, and nothing can be further from the truth. Our buildings are always plainly marked,” Buskirk said. “We thought this would be an opportunity for people to walk by and get to know us, and realize that we just enjoy sharing in our fraternity.” “Just about every community has a Masonic

Lodge in northern Indiana, and they’re invited to have a representative there,” Buskirk said. He explained that the central organization is “the Blue Lodge, or Masonic Lodge — it’s known by both names.” The men’s group is not linked to a specific religion, he said. “We are monotheistic — we believe in one supreme being — but that’s the extent of it,” he explained. The related groups include Job’s Daughters for young women, the Demolay for young men, and the Order of the Eastern Star. Among the other “appendant bodies” are

the York Rite, the Scottish Rite, the Daughters of the Nile, and the Shrine. Buskirk invited those groups to share in the

outreach. They will bring columns and other symbols to depict a Masonic Lodge. “The Job’s Daughters is Bethel No. 8, which means

they were the eighth bethel in the state of Indiana to be organized, so they have a long, long history,” Buskirk said.

The group also makes lap robes for Hospice Home and nursing home residents; they sew bright and cute pillowcases for children undergoing treatment for cancer, and they make and fill Christmas stockings that are given to the Friendship Ministry adult clients. The ministry

team also gives to other causes within the church and community. This year’s event will feature free demonstrations of talent by three church members, Ann and Don Wenger will demonstrate their art of woodcarving, decorative wood burning, and hand painting to produce decorative items. Their artwork will be available for sale. Artist and former art teacher Donna Henn will give children

the opportunity to experience making a pot from clay using her potter’s wheel. This year’s event has an array of items as well, including a handcrafted wooden lap dulcimer musical instrument made by Steve Born, and a children’s solid oak doll bed handcrafted by Doug Tellas. Another church member, Nancy Myers, has developed a following with her little girls’ classic

to bring people together and be more aware of the many wonderful talents, skills, and hobbies of members of our congregation. Talent just comes out of the woodwork, and it is always fun to learn more about each other, see the wonderful array of items, and know that all of the proceeds of the sale will go to help support the many projects of the Women’s Ministry team.” Although the sale is organized by the Women’s Ministry team, many men also contribute hours of labor in creating items, and also help before, during and after the sale.

Aqua engineer learned from work in Sweden Submitted by Aqua Indiana

Aqua Indiana’s new engineer responsible for managing construction and infrastructure says a Florida vacation changed both his personal life and the way he thinks about water. Derek Sutton had already established a career in water system engineering when he

met a native of Finland while vacationing in the Sunshine State. That chance meeting led to relocation to Stockholm, Sweden, and marriage. Sutton worked in Sweden as a consultant on water-related infrastructure projects. He learned that although waste-water system regulations are slightly more stringent than here in the states,

Swedish drinking water regulations are broader in interpretation. “In the Nordic nations, Sweden in particular, water is a precious resource, but it is also viewed and governed differently,â€? Sutton said. While parts of the USA are challenged by drought, he learned ooding is the greatest natural risk to the Nordic nations. That’s not the

only difference. “People there think it’s silly to water their lawns. And, it’s actually hard to ďŹ nd bottled water. Tap water is preferred.â€? Sutton is glad to be back in the USA and, after just six months, is fully engaged in Aqua’s construction projects in Indiana. Aboite Township’s is the largest of nine waste-water systems owned by Aqua in the Hoosier State. Aqua also

owns two drinking water systems and manages two others under contracts with local governments. This month, Aqua expects to complete an important project that channels waste water from several Aboite Township neighborhoods to its treatment plant on Engle Road. Sutton said motorists surely noticed the work to bury miles of green pipe beneath Aboite Center Road, “but they may not

understand our system isn’t designed for rainwater. It’s purely a sanitary sewer. Homeowners can help themselves by being careful about what they put down the drain.â€? Pouring oil or kitchen grease down the sink promotes clogging of the system. Sutton said this problem is aggravated by increased use of â€œďŹ‚ush-ableâ€? wipes. “They typically cause isolated problems until a heavy rainstorm comes along.â€? In August, some areas of Aboite Township saw more than four inches of rain. Sutton said in such a deluge, rainwater ďŹ nds its way into the system. “Clogs from grease, wipes and foreign objects contribute to an overload situation and occasional sewer backups,â€? he said. “So, what your neighbor ushed down the drain might cause a problem for you.â€? Improper use of sump pumps also aggravates sewer overow situations. Newer building codes prevent sump pumps from sending water into the sanitary sewer system, but violations are not uncommon. If your sump pump does not channel water to an above-ground discharge, it could be contributing to sewer overows and should be modiďŹ ed. Sutton said he didn’t set out to become a water and waste-water system engineer, but he ďŹ nds it rewarding. “Young people often do not consider working in water and waste water as a career path,â€? he said. “But if you’re interested in a career that provides a real sense that you are helping the community and serving in the best interest of the public, then a water-related career is a great option.â€?

Sample New Haven vendors gain from giving Mark Anderson handed out free food to hundreds of people at last year’s Sample New Haven. It’s good business, said the owner of Andy’s Knockout Chicken. “From my standpoint, it’s a marketing day for me,� he said. Anderson will have another marketing opportunity Saturday, Oct. 4.

The two-time winner of the People’s Choice Award plans to add a third title. The New Haven Chamber of Commerce presents the event beginning at 11 a.m. Join the festivities by paying $2 per person or $5 per family. A smiley face stamp on one hand entitles the visitor to enjoy samples from restaurants along Broadway.

Each guest may vote for their favorite. “We’re going to do ribs and barbecued potatoes,� Anderson said. “We’re going to do drumsticks, which is pretty popular, and then chicken corn chowder soup with cornbread.� “We take the chicken off the grill, and we shred that and that’s the base, and we add some broth and

Every Water Molecule Has 2 Hydrogen Atoms Bonded to 1 Oxygen Atom. That’ll Never Change.

There Are Going to Be Some Changes to Your Water Service. That’s because Aqua and the City of Fort Wayne will soon be partners in providing water and wastewater services for Aboite Township. What does that mean for you? First, the city will begin providing tap water to the 12,500 homes and businesses served by Aqua. The conversion begins upon regulatory approval and will occur in stages beginning in 2015. Aqua will continue processing wastewater and, in fact, will expand its wastewater capacity later this year. This encourages economic growth. And, best of all, even though strict national regulations are increasing wastewater treatment costs, Aqua is committed to keeping rates stable through at least 2016.
