outdoor LIVING

With snow covering much of the ground during January, it's natural to want to get outside more often. We have many options for snow-filled adventure in the area.

Story and Photos by Dr. Carla Gull

outdoor LIVING

Dr. Carla gull blogs at www.InsideOutsideMichiana.com. She is often seen with her four tag-along explorers in the greater michiana area.

Sledding and TubingOur family loves sledding! it’s relatively quick, easy, and inexpensive. We have a small hill near our house that makes it easy to send the kids out to sled. We leave the sleds on the front porch during the winter to keep them accessible. The kids will also just pull sleds around in the yard. We enjoy going to Bonneyville mill and Ox Bow County Park. each has a warming house that gives a heated place for a snack. Walnut Park in goshen is another option. Tubing is always fun as well.

Cross-Country SkiingCross-country skiing allows you to glide over the top of the snow instead of sinking down in as you move along a trail. groomed paths are offered at both Bonneyville mill and Ox Bow County Park.

Snow Shoeingafter last year’s snowfall, it’s time to start thinking about snowshoes, as they work best when there is at least 6-12” of snow. Try it on trails in the area with plenty of snow, being careful not to disturb the cross-country skiing trails.

Ice Skatingmy grandfather often talks about ice skating on the lake in his more nimble years. if you don’t have access to a safe lake, try nibco Water & ice Park in elkhart.

How do you get outside when it’s cold and snowy?

New Year, New Dollars!By Stephanie J. Salisbury

2014 Statistics:

•  Student volunteers for Phone-a-thon: 25-30 •  # of $750 scholarships: 99 •  Total amount of memorial scholarships: $3650 •  Total scholarship amount given: $77,900

This year’s Phone-a-thon dates: February 17, 18, 19

Monies come from: Elkhart County Community Foundation, local businesses, and individuals LIKE YOU!

Sometime next month, your phone might ring and a student might ask you to give to Dollars for Scholars. We encourage you to give back to our community by helping out.

Small Town, Big Hearts“Dollars for Scholars truly exemplifies small town generosity and the emphasis our community places on higher education,” says northridge Dollars for Scholars (DFS) President aaron Scholl. “College costs are escalating. i am proud

to say that 100% of the money that is raised from businesses and individuals in the community goes directly to help offset college costs for graduating students right here in our community.”

Help Our Kids SucceedPast President Robin K.

Tahara miller is the current nominating Chairperson for DFS. “We are very fortunate to live in a community that cares,” she says. “They care about the quality of life and the quality of education that is offered to our children. This community wants our kids to succeed!”

Every Bit Countsgretchen miller, Phone-a-Thon Chair, says, “Dollars for Scholars would not exist were it not for the generosity of our donors. The small gifts of many help our students further their education. Some colleges match our funds for the students, so that helps them even more!”

“it’s important to encourage our kids by awarding them scholarships!” says Robin. “We are still trying to get the word out that, if everyone gave just a little, it would add up to a whole lot for our students.”

Phone-a-thon dates are February 17-19 from 6-9 pm on Tuesday and Thursday, and 4-6 pm on Wednesday. Be sure to answer your phone and give what you can! Remember, at anY time, you can mail a check made payable to northridge Dollars for Scholars to northridge High School, or stop in and drop it off in the office.

Love Waymakes a

Where to find Sandy’s book:

Middlebury: New Life BookstoreBristol: The Electric PineappleGoshen: Better World BooksOnline: Amazon.com

By Tammy Tilley Photo by Kris Mueller

So writes Sandra Weatherwax, better known as “Sandy” to her friends, which seem to be about

everyone. That’s because you can’t help but be drawn to her contagious joy, her effervescent personality, and her warm, welcoming demeanor. Even the animals are drawn to her.

Sandy’s joy has not come from having an easy life. Quite the opposite, actually. Like a diamond being formed under great pressure and intense heat, Middlebury’s resident, author of the book “Dancing in the Wind,” and co-founder of LoveWay, Inc., shares in her memoir of how life’s tragedies pale in comparison to “the love of God and his promises.”

Her storyFirst, her husband Gary would become a paraplegic; then, Laurie, their daughter, would die at the young age of 17.

While in the midst of their grieving, Gary and Sandy started a therapeutic horse riding school for the handicapped in Laurie’s memory, as that’s what Laurie had wanted to do. They named the center

“LoveWay,” in part because the word contains Laurie’s initials: LW.

And, with the beginning of LoveWay, healing began for Sandy and Gary. Sandy’s book chronicles their journey fraught with struggles yet equally filled with hilarity. Sandy calls it “a wild and crazy ride!”

Today“LoveWay saved my life,” says Sandy, sitting on a bench and motioning around the barn. “And yet, every time I come here, I wish I had Laurie by my side,” she says wistfully. Then, Sandy’s face illuminates at the sight of Little Goliath, a Shetland pony who nuzzles up to her and eventually tries to chew the flowers off her sandals. Sandy laughs riotously, like a child who has abandoned herself to life’s simple joys.

Sandy’s life and book remind us that the winds that bite and sting are oftentimes the same winds that fan a beautiful flame so we can dance.

“She lost it all and, in the process, she gained everything.”

Those Crazy Daisies!By Cristina Klotz, Program Director

What better way to warm you up during the heart of winter than to let you know about the Garden Club at the Boys & Girls Club of Middlebury?

The Crazy Daisies Junior garden Club is one of the longest running programs here. each fall for the

past ten years, members in grades 3 – 5 have been invited to sign

up to participate in garden Club during the school year. monthly meetings explore topics beyond how to grow vegetables and plant pretty flowers (although it is thanks to the middlebury garden

Club that, each spring, tulips and daisies abound on the Boys

& girls Club property!) members learn to be good stewards of the earth; they make

crafts, learn about wildlife, and much more. One of the highlights of the 2014 Club was when a guest speaker from the Parks Department came to teach about turtles, snakes, and other animals. The speaker even brought some four-legged guests for the kids to see!

Poster Contesteach year, garden Club members are also encouraged to participate in the Smokey Bear/Woodsy Owl poster contest. many can remember commercials featuring Smokey Bear reminding everyone, “Only you can prevent forest fires.” it is upon this theme that the members

are asked to create a poster highlighting the need for everyone to be conscious of how their actions affect the natural environment around them. Over the past several years, a handful of middlebury Crazy Daisies have won awards at the state level for their posters.

National Poetry ContestThrough the middlebury garden Club, all Boys & girls Club members are also invited to participate in a national poetry contest. a recent theme was Protecting and Conserving our natural Resources. Julia m., a 7th grade student at northridge middle School at the time, submitted her poem “Right Now” and was recognized as a regional winner for her work.

HaILEY THOMPSON, a 5th grader at Heritage Intermediate, shows off the design she’s working on for the poster contest.

HaYDen LUSFORD, a 3rd grader at York, watches JORDan FeRReL, a 3rd grader at Orchard View, work on her poster.

Congratulations Raiders on a GREAT season!

“When family and brotherhood come together on the football field, it is a great thing. It’s what we should always strive for.” – Tom Wogomon, Head Football Coach

“From day one, we told the guys we aren’t going to think about the past. There’s a lot of pressure to own the past and these guys didn’t have anything to do with the past. So we told them,

‘you don’t own the past, you just own the future.’ They believed; they were committed.”

Coach Wogomon

“We don’t want to be a one-and-done school. This isn’t about one year or the great career these seniors had. One thing you can always count on: success isn’t a given. Success is something that needs to be worked for. Success is an opportunity that must be taken. That opportunity starts on January 6 for next year’s team.“

Coach Wogomon

In the fall of 1971, Northridge High School fielded its first varsity football team. In the 40+ years that followed, Raider football teams enjoyed the support of the Middlebury community despite the limited number of victories. Entering the fall of 2014, Northridge had won 151 games against 288 losses for a .343 winning percentage.

Something changed in 2014. Northridge football, the one-time doormat of the Northern Lakes Conference, was a Friday night force which seemingly meted out upon their opponents the torture of 40 woe-filled years of football struggle. In turn, they were embraced by a community longing to believe in what this team could do.

The Raiders began the season with three impressive wins, followed by two straight losses, and then finished off the regular season with four more wins for a 7-2 regular season. In the playoffs, they reeled off another four straight wins to win first ever sectional and regional titles for Northridge. The season ended with the stands filled with fans on a bitterly cold night as Northridge lost a hard-fought game against a very tough New Prairie team. It was a fall to remember. Here are Coach Wogomon’s words as he remembers the highlights of this season.

“I remember coaching at Wawasee and East Noble and, even though the Northridge teams weren’t winning many games, the stands were always full. That says a lot about the fan base and the people in the community.”

Coach Wogomon

“This is a group of kids you hope you get as a coach. They made it easy. Usually, as a coach, the most difficult thing is when you have players that don’t buy into what you’re trying to get them to do. We didn’t have that with these kids. This group of kids believed in what we asked them to do. They loved playing football together. When we did get beat, they were ready to come back on monday and work harder. and they had the same attitude when they won.”

NHS Students Participate in Distance Learning Conversationsmr. Bowen’s Psychology class recently participated in a distance learning activity where students had the chance to interact with a safe house operator from Sierra Leone. The woman, a director of a slave trade safe house from the Freetown area of the african country, gave students insight into the inhumane slave trades that are impacting the region as well as an understanding of how her safe house is rescuing people and providing them with rehabilitation and mental health services. Twenty-six students participated in the activity in the northridge High School FiC room, which is specifically set up for such distance learning opportunities.

Owl Pellet Dissection and Investigationevery fall, while learning about ecosystems, food chains, and biomes in mrs. Brook Friesner’s fifth grade class, the students get to participate in a lab where they have the opportunity to dissect an owl pellet.

an owl pellet is an amazing tiny ecosystem that contains materials that owls are not able to digest such as bones, fur, teeth, and feathers. about twenty hours after eating, an owl will regurgitate a pellet.

after spending several days to prepare for the dissection, students work in pairs to take apart their pellets. This must be done very carefully so that no bones break. after the pellet has been disassembled, the partners examine and sort all of the bones and try to identify what type of animal they came from using identification charts. Then, the bones are charted.

Some of the most common bones found come from rats, mice, voles, and birds. Students become very excited to see how many nearly complete skeletons they are able to find. One of the most exciting finds this year was made by a group that discovered what appeared to be vertebrae from a rodent that was all hooked together with a furry tail still attached. Students also find it interesting to compare their findings to the bones of a human skeleton and to other animal bones on display in the room. Having a chance to participate in an experience like this helps to really bring the food chain to life for these fifth grade students.

Alison Wagner takes apart an owl pellet.

Northridge Middle School, a School to Watchnorthridge middle School has been designated by the indiana middle Level educators association and the national Forum to accelerate middle-grades Reform as an official School to Watch!

Schools to Watch is an initiative launched by the national Forum to accelerate middle-grades Reform in 1999. The national Forum is an alliance of more than 60 educators, researchers, and officers of national associations and foundations dedicated to improving schools for young adolescents across the country.

Schools to Watch are:1. Academically Excellent - these schools challenge all

students to use their minds well.2. Developmentally Responsive - these schools are

sensitive to the unique developmental challenges of early adolescence.

3. Socially equitable - these schools are democratic and fair, providing every student with high-quality teachers, resources, and support.

To achieve this level of performance, high-performing schools establish norms, structures, and organizational arrangements to support and sustain their trajectory toward excellence. They have a sense of purpose that drives every

facet of practice and decision-making.

a huge congratulations and thank-you to every student, staff member, parent, and community supporter for helping northridge middle School reach this designation!

Kindergarten Enrollment

Starting in January, we will be accepting the names of kindergarten students for the 2015-2016 school year. Please call the school office at 822.5399 to register your child. Kindergarten round-up will be on Tuesday, april 28, 2015. incoming kindergarteners must be five years old by September 1, 2015.

Brylee Yoder wants the new kindergarten students to work on recognizing the letters of the alphabet.

Stability Balls at Orchard Viewat Orchard View elementary, mrs. Bickel’s 2nd grade students were on a mission to persuade mrs. Clark, the principal, that stability balls were a necessity for student learning! each student wrote a persuasive letter to her, along with a short presentation. mrs. Bickel’s students researched and learned that there are many benefits of using stability balls daily in the classroom.

Some of the points they included in their persuasive letters were:

• Stabilityballscreatestrongercoremuscles to promote better focus;

• Movingcreatesbetterbloodflowand

oxygen to the brain which produces better memory;

• Studentshavefewerbehavioralproblems because they are able to “get their wiggles out”;

• Studentswillbehappy!

The points in their letters were so convincing that mrs. Clark was persuaded. The class was able to replace all their regular classroom desk chairs with stability balls. They have been in use for a little over a month and, so far, spelling test scores have improved and students are better at math facts! The students knew all along this was going to be a good thing!

Visit from ND Player Notre Dame player Sheldon Day came to visit

Mr. Graber’s 2nd grade class. He talked to the students, read them a book, took photos, and autographed

pictures for each of the students. Pictured are: Mrs. Clark, Sheldon Day, and Mr. Graber

We fix knees.

MIDDLEBURY

The knee is one of the hardest working joints in the body. So when something serious goes wrong, a fix often calls

for help from an orthopedic physician who really knows knees. And OSMC joint specialists really know knees. In fact,

about a third of the patients who come to us with muscle and joint pain are coming because of knee problems.

Many of these patients are suffering from knee pain caused by osteoarthritis. Some are experiencing trauma caused by a sports injury. And others are dealing with the general wear and tear of aging. Many of these conditions can be treated with non-surgical procedures and therapies. But for others, more involved procedures including surgery are called for.

OSMC orthopedic surgeons are among the most talented in the Midwest, experienced in an extensive range of surgical techniques from minimally invasive arthroscopic procedures to the most advanced approaches to total joint replacement. So if you’re experiencing a knee condition that’s just not getting better, OSMC is here to help.
