KNOW YOUR NEIGHBOR

Jenkins seeks to instill hope and direction to inmates %\ 7,0 $6+/(< 6WDII :ULWHU Hope is renewed for Courtney Jenkins when she sees graduates of the Jail Chemical Addiction Program at the Kosciusko County Jail graduate and “get their lives in order.” Jenkins has coordinated JCAP since January 2019 but wasn’t ofﬁcially hired full-time until 2020. Originally from South Whitley, she is a 1993 graduate of Whitko High School. At Whitko, she was a cheerleader, ran cross country and was in a couple of musicals. For several years after marrying Clint Jenkins in 1999, Courtney was a stay-at-home mom and did paraprofessional work a few hours each week at Jefferson Elementary School until 2019. Jenkins discovered the Smart Recovery program when trying to come up with ways to help her son, who is struggling with drug addiction. So she can certainly relate to the struggles addicts face. “I took an online class and became a facilitator,” she said. “I came to the jail twice a week and shared Smart Recovery with the

girls. It is evidence based recovery and deals with why and the science of addiction, the mental side of it and the hormonal and chemical side of addiction.” From 2017, for about a year and a half Jenkins came to the jail in Warsaw and shared the recovery program with female inmates. She also began helping to organize community meetings held to deal with the opioid crisis. “I met with Kyle (Dukes, the sheriff) and we talked about JCAP and what I wanted it to be,” she said. JCAP was started in Dearborn County. “Kyle knew arrests weren’t enough,” Jenkins said. “The inmates needed help, so he jumped on board (with JCAP).” In 2018, the administration of the sheriff’s office had accepted grant money from the state attorney general’s office for JCAP and classes for it officially started in October 2018. During the transition to a new administration, the process of implementing JCAP went pretty smooth. “Sheriff Dukes hit the ground running with a singular goal of making JCAP the best program possible to help those struggling

About half of the schedule is recovery classes such as dealing with anger management, trauma, how to properly process emotions and more. Smart Recovery and Celebrate Recovery are part of this portion. The other half of JCAP deals

with life skills such as banking, job readiness, healthy eating, ﬁtness classes, domestic violence classes and how to do a resume. Participants do mock interviews as part of job readiness. Jenkins said there are normally six to 10 females and eight to 12 men in JCAP, but the current class that started July 12 and will graduate Oct. 22 has 14 men and four women. She organizes the class schedules, handles the application process and paperwork for participants and sort of handles things in the block. “I am sort of a ‘mom’ to them,” she said. “I see them everyday,” and does room inspections, for example, because most people “in the real world” want to keep their own houses clean. Also she does community outreach for JCAP and seeks grant funding because the program

gets no funding from the county. Mainly donations keep the program going. “The ﬁnances are scary, but the community has really been a blessing to us,” she commented. Jenkins said she believes JCAP has helped the community to see addiction in a different way. “They see people are really struggling and they don’t like addiction but they can’t break the cycle.” Withdrawals are difﬁcult “because the body says you need drugs,” even though those struggling know it is wrong to keep using drugs. “They really can’t make good decisions,” adding “they are mothers and fathers and sons and daughters.” Courtney and Clint live in Winona Lake and have four children: daughter Avery, 15; daughter Emerson, 18; daughter Liberty, 21; and son Caleb, 24.

Wednesday, August 4, 2021 — the PAPER — www.the-papers.com

A great deal of change in a generation Birds have declined. Certainly there aren’t as many birds as there were when I was a boy. E v e r y bird count, Christmas bird count, birding big days, breeding bird surveys, indicated fewer birds than there used to be. A scientiﬁc report I read states birds of North America have declined by 70%. Some species have not declined. Some species have even increased. Cardinal and turkey vultures have increased and expanded their range north. Peregrine falcon, bald eagle, osprey and California condor have increased. Birds aren’t the only wildlife that has declined. Bats haven’t just declined, they’ve disappeared. I used to see bats in summer when the weather was fair, circling around a yard light on a pole outside our barn, apparently catching moths which were also circling the light. I haven’t seen a bat, or a moth, around that light, or anyplace else, in several years.

Raccoons have declined. I used to see one, two, as many as three ‘coons on the platform bird feeder outside our dining room window or on the ground under the feeder often. I haven’t seen a ‘coon on or under that feeder in several years. I have seen ‘coons in the road, however, dead. I still see squirrels on that feeder, both red and gray, often two or three at a time, and there’s been a chipmunk now and then. I still see rabbits, not at a bird feeder, usually in or along the side of a road, but I don’t see as may as I used to. Nor do I see as many woodchucks as I used to. Insects have also declined, not just the moths that used to circle the security light out by the barn, all insects. There aren’t as many mosquitoes as there used to be. When we moved to our home in the country, mosquitoes were so numerous this time of year I wore a net over my head to protect me from the mosquitoes. It’s been a few years since I wore a mosquito net. Grasshoppers used to be as numerous in grassy fields in summer as mosquitoes were in the air. I haven’t seen a grasshopper this summer. There aren’t as many ants as there were when I was a boy or flies or crickets or caterpillars or butterflies. As a boy, I netted

‘Celebrate recovery’ event in downtown Warsaw A celebration of community and hope will be from 5-8 p.m. Sept. 3, in downtown Warsaw. The First Friday event will be an evening of celebration raising awareness on recovery resources available to the community and to help end the stigma of addiction. September is National Recovery Month. People may connect with recovery resource vendors, food trucks,

butterflies, killed them by putting them in a poison jar, then mounted them in a notebook, wings spread. There aren’t as many worms as there used to be. That’s right, worms, big worms, night crawlers. After a rain, they’d be scattered across the surface of the ground. My brother and I used to gather night crawlers after a rain, then sell them to fishermen. We had a sign out by the street, “Night crawlers for sale.” The world has changed a great deal since my brother and I were boys. Summers we worked on farms, staying on a farm at times, doing chores, milking cows, by hand, carrying grain to pigs, gathering eggs and scattering grain for chickens. Farm fields in my home state, Iowa, fields of corn and soybeans, were smaller then, most of them no bigger than an eighth of a section, 80 acres. Now many fields are a quarter of a section, 160 acres or more. Fertilizer in those days gone by was droppings from the livestock in the barn yard, spread with a manure spreader pulled by a tractor. Now fertilizer is chemicals. There is less of nature than there was when I was a boy, fewer birds, fewer mammals, fewer insects. We have global warming. Now I read a proposal for homeowners to plow up lawns and plant them to vegetation beneficial to birds and mammals and, yes, insects to wildlife.

Just be kind today

Sheriff reelection As a staunch Republican supporter in this county, I think it is in very poor taste that anyone so involved in our party would publicly endorse the current sheriff for reelection not even mentioning the other candidate. Perhaps we should all review the news articles of late about the drug trafﬁc and death in the jail and the destruction of the sprinkler system by an inmate before we think about reelecting the current sheriff.

Today, I am going to challenge everyone to be a happier person. There’s so much negativity and anger over everything. So, for today, wake up and be thankful you woke up and be thankful for family, friends, health, good health and just be thankful. There’s always something to be thankful for. Smile at someone you pass, be kind, tell them you like their outﬁt, haircut, anything. Just be kind today and you

The program allows adults 55 and older to audit approved on-campus classes at a reduced rate of $25 per class.

that growth and learning can occur at any age,” said Dr. Dennis Gaerte, Silver Scholars coordinator. “The Silver Scholars program is not only a means to enrich the lives of older folks in our community but also the lives of our students.” An open house will be from 2:30-5 p.m. Aug. 10, in the registrar’s ofﬁce in Indiana Hall on

Old Jail Museum has urgent need for volunteers The Old Jail Museum has an urgent need for volunteers in two categories. This is due to the fact it no longer has a person to cover the front desk at the museum from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. the third Saturday of the month. To avoid closures those Saturdays, a volunteer is needed to cover this shift. The museum also needs volunteers for the Dillinger Raid Sept. 11-12. Also needed are volunteers for the morning and/ or afternoon of Sept. 11. The hours Saturday will be from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. but the museum can use volunteers either morning or afternoon, or both. Also there is a need for volunteers from 1-5 p.m. Sept. 12. This will hopefully be a success-

Warsaw BZA denies requests for proposed CR 350N subdivision %\ 0$**,( .(1:257+< ,QN)UHH1HZV During the Warsaw Board of Zoning Appeals meeting July 26, the board denied two variance requests related to the proposed Greenbrier subdivision in Warsaw. The proposed Greenbrier subdivision consists of 136 lots and will be located on CR 350N, east of Airport Road. Jeff Thomas was the petitioner requesting both of the variances. The ﬁrst variance is to permit 5-foot side yard setbacks in an R-1 district instead of the 7-foot side yard setbacks currently required. This would apply to all of the lots, except for corner lots and those impacted by easements. The second variance is to remove the setback requirements for side yards on the lots numbered 77 through 136. This would allow single-family attached units to adjoin and have a shared wall. These homes would be referred to

as attached villas. The variance also requests to eliminate the minimum lot size requirements for these lots. Attorney Steve Snyder, representing adjacent property owners Tony and Mary Nicholas, argued against the requests. “This is essentially an R-2 standard attempting to be applied to an R-1 District,” said Snyder. “CR 350N, we are all familiar enough with that to know that it’s a heavy traffic area … they’re going to be competing with the heavy traffic that’s already there, school buses, and a significant amount of construction vehicles for the first several years of development.” Snyder said the developers had no hardship to qualify for the variances, which is a requirement that the board must find before approving any variances. “This is bare land, you can design around bare land very easily,” said Snyder. “There’s no hardship that I can see except the developed wants to place more

lots with higher density so that there’s a higher value.” Ten other neighbors of the proposed subdivision were also present to oppose the request. They individually brought up concerns regarding traffic, the size of the lots and decreasing property values. Multiple people used the phrase “sardine-packed homes” when referring to the lots with attached villas. Thomas gave a rebuttal to the neighbor’s concerns. He explained that going from a 7-foot to a 5-foot setback doesn’t affect the layout or access of the lots. Because of this, he said that the variance would not have an impact on the traffic levels, but that traffic would be studied when the plat goes before the area plan commission. Regarding decreasing property values, Thomas said that the starter homes in the subdivision will be priced around $250,000 and the attached villas will start at about $270,000 per side. He stated that the average sale price

in the Dells subdivision is around $280,000. The board ﬁrst voted unanimously to deny the variance to decrease the setbacks from 7 feet to 5 feet. “With all the comments from the community, the citizens, honestly I can’t approve this based on what has been said because I do

think that their points are valid — there is no hardship,” said Jeff Johnson, a board member. The board also voted to unanimously deny the second variance request regarding the attached villas. Board members stated that they saw the same concerns with this request as the ﬁrst variance request.

Indiana Law Enforcement Academy suspends classes Due to a signiﬁcant outbreak of COVID-19 among students at the Indiana Law Enforcement Academy in Plainﬁeld, the Law Enforcement Training Board has made the decision to temporarily suspend the 2021 class at ILEA. As of Wednesday, July 28, 10 students had tested positive, and nine additional students are being retested after initial results were inconclusive. Ad-

ditionally, 50 students must isolate because they are symptomatic or quarantine because they are considered close contacts of a positive case. The majority of the 117 students are unvaccinated. Indiana Department of Health will again provide speciﬁc protocols, such as cohorting students and masking requirements, for all ILEA operations. A restart date has not been set.

Duane Harman piloted a 1937 F20 Farmall tractor pulling the reaper behind, allowing the wheat to be harvested and bound before being pushed onto the ground for the club members to stack them in tied off bundles. The wheat was later loaded on two wagons, pulled by a Farmall M and an International 686 respectively. The bundles were lifted by pitch fork to an awaiting recipient on top of the wagon to be stacked as the wagon drove through the ﬂeld. The wagon loads of wheat will be threshed at an Echoes of the Past event Aug. 6-7 in Claypool. The tractor show, pull and drive will be located at the corner of County Farm Road and CR 700S.

Famous Artist Series XXI: Tintoretto %< '$5/$ 0&&$0021 *XHVW :ULWHU Tintoretto’s painting “Christ at the Sea of Galilee” was one of the paintings critics include when talking about the greatest of the Venetian artists and discussing his work. Tintoretto was born in Venice, Italy, in 1518. He was one of the most important artists included in the late Renaissance of the Venetian school. Interestingly, most of the artists we have included in this series were inclined to travel extensively in order to learn from other artists, in other locations, in order to pick up new techniques and trends in art. They would then consider those novel and new ideas for possible application in their own work. Tintoretto was an exception to this and did very little travel outside of Venice. Only one trip was recorded; it was taken in 1580, when he was 62. Otherwise, he learned what he needed to learn in Venice. There was an apprenticeship for a while between Tintoretto and Titian that was short-lived, supposedly because Titian resented both Tintoretto’s exceptional ability in art, but more than that did not like Tintoretto’s conceit about that ability. Tintoretto learned from Titian but enthusiastically admired Michelangelo, so his work included components of both these master artists. As it turned out, Tintoretto didn’t need to travel because many of the great artists came to

him when Rome was sacked by invaders. Other painters and artists also arrived to the relative safety of Venice from Tuscany and Bologna and brought other unique art treatments with them as well. Tintoretto was intrigued by the experiments of others. Form and light became great concerns as he developed his already unique style. He would perform drawing practices, which were based on nature, and wax models, even small statues that were placed in a pose and then carefully illuminated, almost like a scene on a stage. This technique helped him greatly in gaining satisfactory depiction of light and form. As with many artists of that era, art wouldn’t have survived to the degree it did, without the inﬂuence and support of the churches of the time. Many of the subjects that were created by a vast number of artists also of this genre have to include Tintoretto’s “Christ and the Adulteress.” Later, Tintoretto created a piece called “Freeing the Slave”

that garnered him great recognition and fame throughout the art world. Other artists wrote him and praised this work, which secured his position and his success. His work was in demand. At this time, he settled down and married Faustine Episcopi. They were a devoted couple and had eight children, three of whom were to grow up and offer marvelous assistance in his art studio. It was very common back then for underlings to work on masterpieces right along with the master artist. The work of Paolo Veronese came to Tintoretto’s attention when he visited the Doges’ Palace. He was impressed with the Bible stories portrayed on the ceilings. As many more religious projects were sent his way, he continued to gain favor with his patrons. People can see one such work by visiting the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City to view his work — “The Miracle of the Loaves and Fishes.” This is testimony to his own deep spirituality along with his genius. He was still producing amazing works of art until he died in 1594.

Lilly Center tracking blue-green algae blooms Lilly Center For Lakes and Streams has identified some new blue-green algae blooms this summer and is seeking the public’s help in finding more so officials can study the aquatic events. Lilly Center did not release any figures, but a spokesperson said they plan to have a report after the summer ends. The blooms looks like “pea soup.” Blue-green algae are puzzling; that’s why the center and other scientists are actively studying it. But what is known is blooms tend to happen in warm, stagnant water that’s over-saturated with nutrients from the surrounding land, the Lilly Center said in a newsletter released Thursday, July 29.

Blooms tend to occur more frequently in late summer due to consistently warm weather and extra nutrients in the water. Anyone who comes across a bluegreen algae bloom is asked to email a picture of the bloom, plus the location and time, to lakes@grace.edu. To better understand the importance that nutrients play in lakes, a quick summary from the Lilly Center can be found by visiting https:// lakes.grace.edu/nutrients-in-water. %,* %/2206 “ In July, Big Chapman Lake experienced several blue-green algae blooms, including this one, according to the Lilly Center For Lakes and Streams.
