It’s mainly to get back to a family-friendly, K-through-senior-cit- izen age group,” said Steve Pearson, head of Carroll’s theater program and the director of this year’s play. The 2017 musical will be a re-envisioning of P. L. Travers’ classic “Mary Poppins,” popularized by Walt Disney’s 1964 film adaptation starring Julie Andrews and In recent years, Carroll theater has focused on more young-adult-and-up plays, such as 2015’s production of “Foot- loose,” but Pearson hopes to reach a larger audience with this year’s musical. “Last year was more adult. It was a Shirley Temple movie, ‘Little Princess,’ but only adult people would know it. And, as a result, we’re kind of limiting who’s going to come to the play,” Pearson said. “When we did ‘Footloose’ the year before last, that’s high school and above. Grade-schoolers aren’t going to come to that. The good news with this play is the draw.” “Mary Poppins” was first adapted for the stage in 2004 with a run in London’s West Carroll performing arts to stage ‘Mary Poppins’ this week Serving over 2,175 readers* monthly Serving Huntertown and northwest Allen County October 13, 2017 INfortwayne.com Community Calendar.....

Peck www.leobarbershop.com Marching Saints find gold in Silver trophy By Garth Snow [email protected] After two months of practice, only 53 minutes of warmup separated the Bishop Dwenger Marching Saints from their season-de- fining 6-minute show. The band was ready for Dwenger’s first ISSMA competition in three years. They gathered between the Dwenger bus and band trailer in a Homestead High School parking lot, ready to wind around the school and to the field. Jordan Stevens, a color guard instructor, handed out lanterns that guard members would need to present “Journey to Her Wings.” Second-year band director Don Cochran offered just a little more encouragement. Two Homestead band-parent volunteers led the staff and 48 musicians and guard members to Warmup Area A, for 14 minutes of prac- tice without music. “No sound. No sound,” Cochran reminded the band. As the band practiced their steps, band volunteer George Gallacher told of his attachment to the program. “This is a new beginning,” Gallacher said. As with many band parents, Gallacher’s chil- dren outgrew the program but Gallacher did not. His youngest daughter last marched for Dwenger in 2004. But there he was, yet again, pulling instruments and driving the band trailer. “I volunteer for the love of the program,” he said. “I didn’t have much of a niche in life when I was younger. And this is my niche, as a present to the kids. I’d love to see 75 or 80 kids, just like in the old days.” Stevens guided the guard as they limbered up and then walked their patterns. The 16 guard members gathered around her. “Keep smiling. You girls are gonna do great today,” she said. “Remember the eyebrows.” Then on to another warmup area, this time with music. Parent coordinator Brian Dumford towed a gener- ator, just in case the power connection wasn’t working. He had been happy to assist when Dwenger restored its marching band this season. “When I put out the call for parent volunteers, I was very happy with the great turnout we got,” he said. The band played and marched, and Cochran gave just a little more encourage- ment. Dumford watched the Indiana State School Music Association timing judge, who held up a sign showing 5 minutes left in rehearsal. Dumford gave the thumbs-up to the judge, and took the news to Cochran. The group gathered in tight formation one more time. Cochran encouraged them again. Then all was silence. The Sign of the Cross. The Lord’s Prayer. The Sign of the Cross again. “Let’s have fun,” Cochran told his charges. They waited for the North Side band to pass them into a separate rehearsal area. Then the Dwenger band followed the Homestead volunteers past the Freshman Center and toward the field where New Haven’s band was just wrapping up its show and Chesterton’s was staging in the end zone. They lined up yet again and they waited yet again. Then more volunteers ushered them toward the end zone. Cochran gave a thumbs-up. Then he gave more encouragement. Then parents pushed instruments along the sidelines and guard members and musi- cians took the field. The announcer gave the charge for ISSMA Scholastic Class A performance. The show unfolded, the story of a young fairy being following the path to earn Haley student gathering Jordan Stevens, a Bishop Dwenger High School color guard instructor, gives lanterns to the guard before a competition at Homestead High School.

A partnership between Community Harvest Food Bank and local farmers is helping bring fresh produce to those most in need in northeast Indiana.

Community Harvest has been participating in crop gleaning for the past two years, CEO John Wolf said.

The process is simple: After farmers have finished harvesting their crops for the year, Community Harvest is invited to come in and pick what’s left.

While the process has only been formally going on for the past two years, the idea for one family has gone back generations.

“We’ve donated excess produce or second-grade produce that we can’t sell to Community Harvest for years now. My grandpa started taking it in 20 years ago,” Matt Kurtz said.

“We’ve got a pretty good

rapport with the Kurtz farm so we’ve been buying corn and green beans from them all summer,” Wolf said. “They had a good

Hickory Center students thank members of Honor Flight Northeast Indiana present at the school’s Nov. 8 Veterans Day event.

By Louis [email protected]

“I think there is one higher office than president and I would call that patriot.”

Last week, the words of Gary Hart were felt throughout Northwest Allen County’s elementary schools, as students, faculty and staff honored America’s fighting men and women in observance of Veterans Day.

While each school celebrated in its own way, the message to the corporation’s students was loud and clear.

Hickory Center kicked off the slew of Veterans Day celebrations last Wednesday, giving students a chance to introduce their veteran friends and family members, including several veterans from America’s modern wars — as well as the grandfather of a student who fought in World War II. Students performed songs for the veterans in attendance and were treated to a presentation from Honor Flight North-

east Indiana’s Mike Buhr. Hickory Center donates to the orga-nization through fundraisers, in order to give veterans an opportunity to visit the various war memorials in Wash-ington D.C.

Arcola Elementary held a similar event on Nov. 10. Following a reception for veteran family members and friends of Arcola

students, the school honored 29 total veterans. Six of the veterans in attendance were members of the Whitley County Korean War Veterans Honor Guard, one of whom — Ken Kurtz — is a member of the Arcola Lions Club and a graduate of the Arcola High School class of 1947. Kurtz fought in the Korean

“We haven’t done a family one for a while, and this should be corporation-wide. It’s mainly to get back to a family-friendly, K-through-senior-cit-izen age group,” said Steve Pearson, head of Carroll’s theater program and the director of this year’s play.

The 2017 musical will be a re-envisioning of P. L. Travers’ classic “Mary Poppins,” popularized by Walt Disney’s 1964 film adaptation starring Julie Andrews and Dick Van Dyke. The play centers around Jane and Michael, chil-dren of the wealthy and uptight Banks family. The two are faced with the unpleasant prospect of a new nanny only to discover that the woman chosen for the job is the magical Mary Poppins. The show will take audiences on a journey through Jane and Michael’s fantas-tical adventures with the titular nanny.

In recent years, Carroll theater has focused on more young-adult-and-up plays, such as 2015’s production of “Foot-loose,” but Pearson hopes to reach a larger audience with this year’s musical.

“Last year was more adult. It was a Shirley Temple movie, ‘Little Princess,’ but only adult people would know it. And, as a result, we’re kind of limiting who’s going to come to the play,” Pearson said. “When we did ‘Footloose’ the year before last, that’s high school and above. Grade-schoolers aren’t going to come to that. The good news with this play is the draw.”

“Mary Poppins” was first adapted for the stage in 2004 with a run in London’s West End theatre before being brought to Broadway, where it ran from 2006 to 2013. However, iterations of the story have found their way into various facets of pop culture throughout the years. Pearson believes the story has had so much success because of the values it places on family and the rela-tionships between its characters.

Marching Saints find gold in Silver trophyBy Garth [email protected]

After two months of practice, only 53 minutes of warmup separated the Bishop Dwenger Marching Saints from their season-de-fining 6-minute show.

The band was ready for Dwenger’s first ISSMA competition in three years. They gathered between the Dwenger bus and band trailer in a Homestead High School parking lot, ready to wind around the school and to the field.

Jordan Stevens, a color guard instructor, handed out lanterns that guard members would need to present “Journey to Her Wings.” Second-year band director Don Cochran offered just a little more encouragement. Two Homestead band-parent volunteers led the staff and 48 musicians and guard members to Warmup Area A, for 14 minutes of prac-tice without music. “No sound. No sound,” Cochran reminded the band.

As the band practiced

their steps, band volunteer George Gallacher told of his attachment to the program. “This is a new beginning,” Gallacher said. As with many band parents, Gallacher’s chil-dren outgrew the program but Gallacher did not. His youngest daughter last marched for Dwenger in 2004. But there he was, yet again, pulling instruments and driving the band trailer. “I volunteer for the love of the program,” he said. “I didn’t have much of a niche in life when I was younger. And this is my niche, as a present to the kids. I’d love to see 75 or 80 kids, just like in the old days.”

Stevens guided the guard as they limbered up and then walked their patterns. The 16 guard members gathered around her. “Keep smiling. You girls are gonna do great today,” she said.

“Remember the eyebrows.”Then on to another

warmup area, this time with music.

Parent coordinator Brian Dumford towed a gener-ator, just in case the power connection wasn’t working. He had been happy to assist when Dwenger restored its marching band this season.

“When I put out the call for parent volunteers, I was very happy with the great turnout we got,” he said.

The band played and marched, and Cochran gave just a little more encourage-ment.

Dumford watched the Indiana State School Music Association timing

judge, who held up a sign showing 5 minutes left in rehearsal. Dumford gave the thumbs-up to the judge, and took the news to Cochran.

The group gathered in tight formation one more time. Cochran encouraged them again. Then all was silence. The Sign of the

Cross. The Lord’s Prayer. The Sign of the Cross again.

“Let’s have fun,” Cochran told his charges.

They waited for the North Side band to pass them into a separate rehearsal area. Then the Dwenger band followed the Homestead volunteers past the Freshman Center and toward the field where New Haven’s band was just wrapping up its show and Chesterton’s was staging in the end zone.

They lined up yet again and they waited yet again. Then more volunteers ushered them toward the end zone. Cochran gave a thumbs-up. Then he gave more encouragement. Then parents pushed instruments along the sidelines and guard members and musi-cians took the field. The announcer gave the charge for ISSMA Scholastic Class A performance.

Haley student gatheringcaps for buddy benches

By Megan [email protected]

Though only 8 years old, Samantha Vance, a student at Haley Elemen-tary School, wanted to do something about loneliness she saw on the playground.

Her solution? A buddy bench.

“If somebody’s lonely they can sit on the buddy bench and somebody can come up to them and they can play together and make new friends,” she said. “I know a lot of people who are lonely and they don’t have really any friends and new people to the school they could use it and I would use it too.”

Samantha got the idea during vacation Bible school at Blackhawk Ministries.

“She came to me the

night after VBS and told me, Mom, our school needs this, and then wanted to contact the

principal and schedule a meeting,” Samantha’s mom, Heidi Vance, said.
