MASON — Mason Public Schools (MPS) has made the change to a Web-based cal- endar program, Google Cal- endar. To simplify the online cal- endar process, the district has implemented the new technology that allows users access to district and build- ing calendars from any com- puter with Internet access. Through a free Google account, parents can per- sonalize their calendars by adding particular building calendars to the accounts. For example, parents with students at Alaiedon Elementary School, Mason Middle School and Mason High School can draw three calendars from these schools into an account and look at them in one space. Users can personalize their calendars at home too. “Google Calendar affords you that opportunity,” said Ted Berryhill, instructional support teacher and tech- nology coach. Berryhill said that data that staff inputs is updated quickly. He also said he hopes that teachers will em- brace the new system and include classroom events on the calendars.

MASON — In 2004, Dr. Barry Saltman and his wife, Suzanne, a registered nurse, set their sights on a weekly “ma and pa” free clinic for the community.

Mason police reportBetween Jan. 18 and Jan. 24, Mason police

investigated 44 reported incidents involving avariety of activities. These are some of those in-cidents worth noting.

Citations issuedJan. 18: An officer stopped a car during dark

time hours for driving without lights. Contactwith the driver found everything in order ex-cept for a current suspension to her operator’spermit. A friend with a valid license was calledto pick up the car, and the driver was releasedwith citations for driving without headlights andwhile suspended.

Jan. 19: An officer received a vehicle damagereport where the rear window of a car had beenshattered while inside a locked garage. Investi-gation revealed the window appeared to haveexploded, and the damage most likely occurredby unknown means from inside the car, as theglass fragments sprayed out all over the garage.There were no obvious signs of entry into thegarage or implements of destruction that couldhave been used to cause the damage.

Jan. 19: An officer responded to a trafficcrash at Jefferson and Maple where a motoriststruck a dog, which was then pinned underneaththe car. The officer arrived, and upon assessingthe situation, used the car’s jack to lift the vehi-cle off of the animal, which appeared to sufferonly a slight limp as a result of the collision. Boththe driver and the dog’s owner reported the dogwas unleashed and walked into the path of thevehicle, which had the right of way. No enforce-ment action was taken.

Jan. 19: The code enforcement officer re-ceived a complaint of two junk vehicles in the400 block of Okemos. This address and problemwere addressed two months prior by the CEO,but the promised remedy did not occur. Theowner has been contacted, and the appropriateactions to abate the nuisances have been dis-cussed. The investigation will continue.

Taking the fifthJan. 19: An officer responded to a theft and

assault report that occurred in a Mason businessafter the suspect was caught trying to steal a fifthof alcohol. The complainant reported stoppingthe suspect as he was trying to leave the buildingand having him retrieve the bottle from conceal-ment inside his coat.

When the complainant asked the suspect toaccompany him to the office, the suspect tookflight, running out across Cedar Street and be-ing pursued by a witness who had observed theconfrontation. The suspect then returned to thebusiness parking lot and entered a parked car,after which he backed up and struck one of twopeople who had been standing behind the carto prevent him from leaving. The victim, whenstruck, had to hang onto the trunk’s lid spoilerto keep from going under the vehicle and beingbacked over. He was dragged about 15 feet be-fore the suspect reversed directions. He then

was able to let go of the vehicle, rolling severaltimes as the vehicle sped off. Witnesses reportedthe suspect looked directly at the victim beforebacking over him.

The vehicle’s license plate number was ob-tained, and the suspect, identified. A Michiganstate trooper responded to the suspect’s resi-dence, found him there and detained him for theMason officer’s arrival. The suspect was arrestedand lodged in the Ingham County Jail for chargesof retail fraud and leaving the scene of a person-al injury accident. However, the Ingham Countyprosecutor issued a four-count warrant chargingfelonious assault, leaving the scene of an injurycrash, retail fraud third-degree and habitual of-fender. The suspect, who was also out on bondfor a prior theft, remains in jail. The victim wastreated and released from medical attention withminor injuries.

Jan. 20: Officers were dispatched to a resi-dential treatment facility on Curtis Street for adisorderly resident. The complainant reportedthe suspect had been argumentative, was caus-ing problems with other residents, and was notfollowing the facility rules. The complainant add-ed that the suspect was homeless and had atrack record of signing into area treatment facili-ties as a means of shelter and following up bycausing problems. As a result he was asked toleave. To accommodate the situation and makesure the suspect was not left out in the elements,the officer gave him a ride to a location in Lan-sing where he could await a ride safely.

Cold-weather tantrumJan. 20: An officer responded to a welfare

check of a 2-year-old child without proper ap-parel, standing out in the cold, screaming. Wit-nesses reported the child had no shoes or coat,but they were able to get the attention of theresident whose home the child was in front of,and get her back inside. The resident, the child’sgreat-grandmother, stated the child was having atemper tantrum and had walked out of the homeon her own accord because her mother had lefther there.

The officer reported it was 21 degrees andlightly snowing, also noting the child seemed tobe healthy and cared for. However, a copy of thereport will be sent to Child Protective Servicesfor review.

Jan. 21: An officer patrolling North CedarStreet near the city limits observed a pedestrianwalking southbound, and as the weather was in-clement, he decided to check the pedestrian’swelfare. The man said he was just walking froma relative’s home to his place of residence be-cause he had no transportation.

The conversation led from one thing to an-other, and the officer found the man was a regis-tered sex offender, listed as homeless in Lansing,but now residing in Mason without having madethe required change of address notification. Theman also admitted to possessing a marijuanapipe, and no, he was not a medical marijuana

user. The man was cited for possession of drugparaphernalia and given a ride home because ofthe weather. The pipe was seized, and the pos-sible violation of the sex offender statute will beinvestigated.

Jan. 21: An officer received a disorderly per-son complaint from the attendant of an area ser-vice station. The complainant reported makinga customer attend to his vehicle while fuelingit, rather than standing inside the station, out ofthe elements, adding that the customer left thepremises directing a barrage of profanities andinsults at her. She stated she did not want toprosecute.

The angry customer was contacted and re-ported he was not directing his comments to thestation employee, that the employee was rudeand he would not be doing business there in thefuture. He also agreed to do better at controllinghis temper. The matter is closed.

Jan. 24: The code enforcement officer openeda junk vehicle and junk pile investigation on anon-residential property on North Mason Street.The officer has been able to determine propertytaxes for 2010 have yet to be paid and receivedinformation that both the titled owners are like-ly deceased.

clinic for the underinsuredand uninsured is expectedto open in April. Startingin July, community educa-tion will be offered on suchtopics such as nutrition andmanaging high blood pres-sure.

To help get Mason CareFree Clinic to the positionit now has in the communi-ty, of course, has been part-ly due to community help.

Major financial support-ers include the Dart Founda-tion, Dart Bank, the MasonRotary Club and the Kiwan-is Club of Mason.

Pharmacist Steve Wareand Dr. Glen Linsley alsohave given their support tothe clinic.

Unfortunately, financialhelp cannot come fromeverywhere. The Saltmanshave met with City Admin-istrator Marty Colburn, whonoted the city cannot makedirect donations to the clin-ic or waive taxes.

“They are struggling like

so many other organiza-tions,” Colburn said at theJan. 17 City Council meet-ing.

However, Colburn, too,said he wanted the commu-nity to be aware of the clin-ics’ challenges.

Dr. Saltman said thisyear’s budget for all the clin-ics is $1.8 million, up from$1.2 million last year.

Expansion of serviceswill help, Dr. Saltman said,and although the clinicsaren’t in imminent danger ofclosing, there’s the possibil-ity of not being able to takeon added need.

The Obama health plan,according to Dr. Saltman,isn’t the solution, but a grass-roots effort is.

That means, he said, fi-nancial donations as wellas volunteer help are wel-comed. For example, ifsomeone is good at words,writing grants is a possibil-ity. Also, in a prepared state-ment to the City Council, Dr.Saltman said, “The simplefact is that it is impossible to

maintain a viable fiscal pro-file with the fees for servicecoming from Medicaid, ourIngham County Health Planor indigent patients with nomeans to compensate fortheir care.”

Opening a “dialogue,” Dr.Saltman wrote, will help sus-tain a health-care safety netfor residents in southern In-gham County.

Comfort a plusSuzanne’s watercolor

paintings line the walls ofthe Mason Care Free Clinic.There’s also a fish tank inone corner of the waitingroom and a television in an-other corner.

Suzanne said they wantthe office to be “warm andcozy.”

“Our major focus was forpeople to feel comfortableas they come through thedoor,” Dr. Saltman said.

Keeping that comfort lev-el up — and providing medi-cal care to those who needit but can’t afford it — takesa lot of work.

That doesn’t seem toweigh too heavily on thedoctor’s mind.

“I’ve never worked lon-ger or harder in the last sev-en years,” Dr. Saltman said,“and you know what? I’mnever enjoyed it more.”

Eagle of the YearMegan McNamara of Okemos is the Experimental Aircraft AssociationChapter 55 of Mason’s 2010 Young Eagle of the Year. McNamara, shownhere with Chapter 55 Young Eagles Coordinator Doug Koons (left) and herpilot Bob Clark (right), was chosen based on her enthusiasm and interest inaviation. She was presented with a student membership in the associationand other gifts compliments of Chapter 55. Local pilots of the chapterhave provided more than 2,500 youngsters with free airplane rides sincethe program was launched in 1992. McNamara was one of the 238 areayoungsters flown at Mason Jewett Airport in 2010. Visit www.eaa55.org orwww.youngeagles.org.

MASON – Mason’s boysswimming team appeared tohave an uphill struggle re-peating last year’s second-place finish in the CAAC Redafter the team said goodbyeto 13 seniors from the 2010squad.

But with the additions oftwo transfer students fromTennessee, brothers Davidand Corbin Shuler, and hardwork on the part of a solidcore of returning swimmers,the Bulldogs not only lookto retain second place, butare striving to displace theperennial championSt. Johns at the leaguemeet.

David Shuler, a senior,has already qualified for thestate meet in four events,while freshman Corbin hasin two. While the sudden ad-dition of two talented newswimmers could have hadan adverse effect on teamchemistry, Mason coach

Connie Cantrell said theShuler brothers’ acceptanceinto the team has easedsome of the possible pain ofmoving to a new state.

But she also said herteam’s work ethic is the keyto their somewhat unexpect-ed success.

“There is a good core ofguys who value hard work.They like to work hard, theywant to get better. Thattrickles down,” Cantrell said.“Some of our guys reallystepped it up over the sum-mer, and got a lot strongerthan they were last year.”

That core includes re-turnees DJ Hearit, MikeHyatt and Kyle Hosler. It

also includes some who willnot appear on a meet scor-ing sheet.

“I have a couple of guyswho aren’t fast at all. Theyjust like to work hard,”Cantrell said. “I have a first-year senior who works histail off day in and day out.He isn’t fast, and he won’tbe fast, but he likes to work,and stays positive all thetime.”

And optimism is high inthe program.

“I don’t know if we’llbe able to take downSt. Johns at the league meetor not,” Cantrell said, “butwe’ll give it a good run andsee what happens.”

Swimmers moving upBy SCOTT [email protected] “Some of our guys really stepped it up

over the summer, and got a lot strongerthan they were last year.”

Assembly of YahwehWe need a revival in this country.Many of our citizens,cities, school districts, states, (and our federal government)are financially broken or bankrupt, or on the verge ofbankruptcy.

Moral decay is rampant in the media (television, radio,magazines, newspapers), and is looked upon as a freedomof choice and not condemned.

What has happened to our Blessings? Deuteronomy 28…Thou shalt lend unto many nations. Deuteronomy 15:6…The borrower is servant to the lender. Proverbs 22:7.

How are we to turn our nation around? Matthew 5:6,Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst afterrighteousness: for they shall be filled. 2 Chronicles 7:14,If my people, which are called by my name, shall humblethemselves, and pray, and seek my face, and turn from theirwicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgivetheir sin, and will heal their land.

You are invited to a true Sabbath of rest.

dents.“When they’re here,” she

said, “it transports me.”Being with kids changes

her behavior, Doolittle said,but in a good way.

“Once a teacher, alwaysa teacher, I guess,” she said.

Doolittle is undergoingmedical problems now,which are making it moredifficult to get around. How-ever, her many friends help-ing her stay mobile.

“My friends have reallypitched in to help me getaround the days and nights,”Doolittle said.

It’s that outpouring ofsupport that Doolittle reallyappreciates, and why she en-joys living in Mason.

“It shows how big-heart-ed Mason is, I think,” shesaid.

EAST LANSING — TheCapital Area Patriots out-shot Grand Ledge-Waverlyby more than a 2-to-1 mar-gin, but came out on theshort end of a 1-0 score inthe first game of the CAACHigh School Hockey Show-case at Suburban Ice on Jan.22.

Sterling Barnas scoredthe only goal of the gamefor the Comet-Warriors, andthe first of his varsity career,assisted by Chris White fiveminutes into the third peri-od.

Before that, the Patriots,a co-op team composed ofplayers from Charlotte, Lan-sing Catholic, Lansing Chris-tian, Mason and Potterville,controlled the run of playfor much of the contest. Af-ter being out-shot 9-3 in thefirst period, thanks in part toGrand Ledge-Waverly hav-ing the only full power playof the period, the Patriotshad 24 shots on goal to the

Comet-Warriors’ four in thelast two.

‘Very big win’Grand Ledge-Waverly

coach Brian Clifford saidthat the win was especiallyimportant due to his havingseven players out for vari-ous reasons.

got a very big win for us,” Clifford said. “We’ve only goteight forwards and four defensemen, but Austin (Hull)been great in goal, so he’s keeping us in the game.”

After an uneventful first period, Patriots defensemanDavid Peck had his team’s first real scoring chance on thepower play 20 seconds into the second, skating in on theGL-W net on the left wing and across the face of goal, forc-ing a tough pad save by Comet-Warrior goalie Austin Hull.

Tory Brown made an end-to-end rush five minutes later,getting behind the Grand Ledge-Waverly defense and put-ting a wrist shot to the short side, but Hull turned it awaywith his blocker to keep the game scoreless.

Barnas finally broke through with 10:02 left in the third,when White faked a shot to the right of Patriots goalie DanLiesman and found Barnas at the far post. His first-timergave Liesman no chance, and made the score 1-0.

The Patriots pressed forward for the equalizer, and verynearly got it with 1:30 left in the game, when Brown andJeff Smith had a 2-on-1 opportunity, but Hull made big

saves on both Brown’s slap shot and the shot off of the re-bound, to secure the win. Hull finished with 27 saves in thegame.

Despite a brief power-play in the final 19 seconds of thegame, the Patriots couldn’t find the net and fell one goalshort of what would have been their first league win of theseason.

Patriots coach Pat Daley said that he was happy with

everything but the result.“It’s always disappointing not to win, but it was a great

effort by our kids,” Daley said. “We got more shots and wedominated a lot of the game. It was a great effort, but hatsoff to their goalkeeper. He kept them in the game and madea lot of saves.”

The Patriots will play just once this week, when theytravel to face Fenton on Saturday, Feb. 5.

He said he was working in the lower level of the barnwhen he heard a bang in the upper level where the hayis located. He saw smoke and told employees to call 911.Horse barns were not affected, Massman said.
