Three hundred Fort Wayne Community Schools students received free backpacks filled with new supplies, thanks to FWCS employees.

Volunteers gathered at the Grile Administrative Center to pack folders, rulers, erasers and more.

“We do something we call Casual Friday throughout the building,” said Grile Center employee Jacqueline Burnett, who was taking part for the third year. “If you want to wear jeans, each floor has a person who collects a dollar, and that funds most of this.” Some employees also donate items such as toys and Beanie Babies, she said.

Community organiza-tions and individuals also donate. The gifts include tooth brushes and other needs.

Once packed, the bags are given to elementary school case managers, who work with principals

to ensure that the bags are discreetly delivered to students in need. Burnett said the handbags are distributed before the start of the school year.

In a statement, FWCS said this is the 22nd year the employees in the Grile Center, Main-tenance & Operations, Media Services, Nutrition Services, South Transporta-tion, Textbook Rental and the Warehouse have filled the backpacks.

FWCS also works with outside organizations to assist students in need.

Schools get a fresh look for fallBy Garth [email protected]

School employees and community partners became painters and land-scape experts for one day.

More than 200 volun-teers helped to prepare 10 Fort Wayne Community Schools buildings for the new school year. In all, the United Way of Allen County’s 23rd annual Day of Caring brought 1,250 volunteers together to complete 80 projects.

At Shambaugh Elemen-tary School, volunteers cleaned up the grounds next to the main entrance. Crews pushed wheelbar-rows to haul mulch to surround the trees. Curbs got a new coat of bright, yellow paint. Playground equipment got a fresh coat of blue paint.

Polly Swenson painted curbs. She said she has participated in Day of Caring for three or four years. “It’s always good to give back and help out,” she said. “There are a lot of hard-working people

here, and I think everyone really enjoys it. It’s good camaraderie.”

Melanie Hall also painted curbs. She said she has worked with Day of Caring through other employers. “It’s great being able to help out at the schools,” she said. “We don’t have enough funding to do a lot of this kind of work. So it feels really good to help. The schools

are the most important part of our business.”

Crews also turned out at Anthis Center, Bunche Montessori Early Child-hood Center, Whitney Young Early Childhood Center, North Side High School, and Bloomingdale, Lindley, Maplewood, Price and Study elementary schools.

In a statement, FWCS said friendships formed on

Day of Caring often turn into long-term partnerships between the businesses and the schools.

“Day of Caring is a day we look forward to every year,” FWCS Superin-tendent Wendy Robinson said. “The day not only provides our schools with some needed pampering, it also serves as an example of the caring community we have in Fort Wayne.”

Hundreds get backpacksthrough FWCS project

Snider principal promisesto be visible and involved


Nicole Chisley said she wants to interact with the entire Snider High School community as she enters her first year as Snider principal.

Chisley welcomed the public to a meet-and-greet. “It was wonderful,” she said. “We had almost 300 people including students, parents and staff come through between 6:30 and 8 o’clock. I was able to place a face and name with a lot of people. It was awesome.”

She said she continues to cultivate relationships and to seek opportunities to meet people. “I’ve reached out to the parent organizations that help make this place go,” she said. “I also make sure that I’m available and

visible to everyone, and to send a message that I’m here to serve the students, the parents, the staff.

“We are creating 21st century learners to put out to the community, so I have to have a relation-ship with the community so I know what skills the

students need.”Chisley comes to

Snider from South Side High School, where she served as assistant prin-cipal. She previously served in that role at Wayne High School.

State pageant is nextfor Miss Allen CountyBy Garth [email protected]

Erica Hoot won the title of Miss Allen County 2015 and reigned over the fair, July 28-Aug. 2.

Hoot, 19, was crowned at the pageant at Carroll High School, where she gradu-ated in 2014. Hoot receives a $1,000 scholarship, a $785 modeling scholarship, and other gifts. In January, she will compete for the title of Miss Indiana State Fair 2016.

The Trine University sophomore is studying pre-physical therapy and exercise science. She earned recognition on the President’s List and is captain of the women’s soccer team, was inducted into the National Society of Leadership and Success, and is involved with Chris-tian Campus House.

First runner-up Emma Schaefer, 19, graduated from Carroll High School and attends Ball State University, where she majors in telecommunica-tions.

Second runner-up Courtney DelaCuesta, 19, is a Homestead High School graduate and a sophomore at Indiana University-Bloomington,

where she majors in math-ematics.

Third runner-up Cynthia Russell, 17, attends Leo Jr./Sr. High School. She hopes to attend Taylor University next fall and major in pre-medical studies.

Fourth runner-up Caylee Knafel, 19, grad-uated from Churubusco High School and attends the University of Saint Francis, where she is majoring in nursing. She also was named Miss Photogenic.

Brittany Rea, 17, was selected as Miss Conge-niality. She attends IPFW, where she majors in actu-arial science and Spanish.

Also participating in the pageant were Danyle Reith, Alison Schwieterman, Joy

Mugambi, Maelee Hold-erread, Karlee Parker and Kelly Collins.

Hoot succeeded 2014 fair queen Whitney Bullion, also a Carroll graduate. When asked what advice she would offer the new queen, Bullion said, “I think it’s just important to realize that all eyes will be upon you, and so you have to be a role model to everyone who’s looking at you.” She added, “But at the same time, you’re chosen for who you are.”

Visit missallencounty.com for details of the awards and information about registering for the 2016 pageant. Young women 17 to 21 who live in Allen County or attend school in Allen County are eligible.

The Maplecrest Road widening project between Lake Street and State Boulevard is expected to be ready for traffic in September. The original timetable called for the four-lane roadway to open in mid-August. A city official said crews were unable to pour concrete because of record rainfall in June. The project adds a sidewalk trail and a median and adds one traffic light.

No need to leave town to be a tourist Sept. 13By Mariah [email protected]

Visit Fort Wayne invites locals to discover all that Fort Wayne has to offer and wants to reintroduce them to a city of culture, entertain-ment and attractions.

The 17th annual Be A Tourist In Your Own Hometown event will be going on downtown from noon-5 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 13. Both locals and those from out-of-town will get the chance to visit 12 museums and attractions for free.

The event is expected to bring about 30,000 residents and visitors.

“It’s a really fun opportunity for people to take time to explore the city as visitors do,” said Kristen Guthrie, director of marketing for Visit Fort Wayne. “We have

so many great museums and attractions here that visitors love but resi-dents don’t always take the time to visit so it’s a great day to celebrate

together.”Before embarking on

an adventure downtown, pick up a passport in August at a Fort Wayne Kroger or Old National Bank location. Passports will be used to get a stamp at each location. Visitors are also able to download the passport from visitfortwanye.com.

The list of partici-pating museums and attractions includes the following:

• African/Afri-can-American History Museum;

• Allen County Court-house;

• Cathedral Museum;• Embassy Theatre;• Foellinger-Freimann

Botanical Conservatory;• Historic Fort Wayne;• History Center;• Fort Wayne Museum

of Art;• Parkview Field;

• Science Central;• The Lincoln Tower;

and• Visit Fort Wayne

Visitors Center.The event is a result

of Visit Fort Wayne staff realizing that residents aren’t always aware of the museums and attrac-tions available to them, Guthrie said. In order to bring large crowds, loca-tions open their doors for free to eliminate excuses or costly fees that can sometimes deter visitors.

“This also allows resi-dents to become good ambassadors for the city of Fort Wayne,” Guthrie said. “This way, they are able to share all the great attractions to friends and family coming from out of town.”

For additional informa-tion, call (260) 424-3700 or visit visitfortwayne.com/beatourist.

Historic Fort Wayne, a faithful copy of the Fort Wayne that was built in 1815-16, will be open during Be A Tourist in Your Own Hometown, Sept. 13.

Kickball tourney delayed, now at Indian Trails ParkAfter a rain-out, the

fourth annual Fort Wayne Sport Club Charity Kick-ball Tournament will now take place Aug. 15 at Indian Trails Park, 10305 Aboite Center Road, Fort Wayne. Play begins at 9:30 a.m. Spectator admission is free.

The proceeds from the fundraiser will benefit Turnstone and TOPSoccer. “I know that

the weather has not coop-erated at all this year,” Dave Bennett, director of competitive sports with the Fort Wayne Sport Club, said in a statement. “But we are confident that Aug. 15 will be a beau-tiful day ripe for kickball. We will still move the tourney to Indian Trails Park due to the flooding destruction at Fort Wayne Sport Club.”

Record rainfall not only caused the tournament to change locations, but post-poned it one and a half months.

For details and updates, visit fortwaynesportclub.com.

The Fort Wayne Sport Club is partnering with the Fort Wayne Sport & Social Club to enhance the tournament and create a more festival-like atmo-

sphere for the event. New elements include free dodge ball games starting around noon for anyone. There will be no team required. There will also be a long-kick contest throughout the day with a men’s, women’s and an under-12 winner.

Petal City food truck will be on hand along with special deals from Pizza Hut.

principal at a school in Pike Township in Indi-anapolis. “I hate using the word ‘alternative,’ because it wasn’t for students who had disci-pline problems,” she said. “We had 3,000 students at our traditional school, and students fall through the cracks when you have 3,000 kids and over a hundred teachers.” The juniors and seniors had good grades but were behind on their credits. “I had about 400 students every year, and I had a hundred per cent grad-uation rate every year, because I was expected to do things outside the box to make sure they all made it across the stage.

“I would make visits to their homes, their jobs. I interviewed the students before they got in the school. I met with parents to make sure they knew my expectations. Because that was a success, the

superintendent asked me to allow middle school students to have that experience. So then we went from just juniors and seniors to sixth, seventh, eighth and juniors and seniors. That was a very awesome experience, and I did that for four years.

“And then I came [to Fort Wayne] as I was working on my superin-tendent’s degree, and I was principal of Thurgood Marshall Charter School.”

She then returned to public schools. “I am a fan of public educa-tion, and I believe in it strongly,” she said. “And I got the opportunity to come to Fort Wayne Community Schools and I came as an assistant prin-

cipal, which was fine with me because I need to be in that element where I felt like I was helping teachers and students in a bigger population.

“I come from a family of educators. My mom was an assistant superin-tendent, my brother was a principal, everybody did H.R., whatever. And my dad was a police sergeant with I.P.D. So it’s in our blood that you have to help people.

“If I had a message that I would want people to know, it would be that I truly believe that I am only here for the students. I get that, and I want people in the commu-nity — the parents, the students, the teachers —

to know that I’m here for them and I want them to use me.”

She said she knows the Snider community’s expectations. “We have a legacy of excellence, and we don’t want to lose that,” she said. “Every-body’s committed to it. I’m committed to it. And everybody will do what-ever it takes to make sure that we’re successful.”

Chisley said she embraces programs such as band and athletics. “They’re valuable to the school because they help students realize their dreams or express their passions, which is part of our legacy of excellence here,” she said. “I just spent an hour with the band last night outside at their practice. I was a band kid. I played the drum — the snare. I also was a color guard member. So I just want to show my support and show that I know your life.

“Just watching them practice and seeing the pride that they took in wanting to present the best show for Snider High School was wonderful, and I think that it helps students feel connected to the school. It’s very important for them to have a balance, not just all academic. And then I also have spent time with the athletic boosters. I’m going to spend time with the football team. It’s very important to make the

school feel connected and give them an opportunity to have a relationship with adults other than ‘do your homework.’ ”

Chisley taught govern-ment and history for seven years before she became an administrator. “I miss it,” she said. “I look for opportunities any time to go back and teach with my teachers, to co-teach with them, to plan with them, whatever I can do. I’m always going to be a teacher at heart.”

Free festival tastefully celebrates the sensesBy Lucretia [email protected]

With a record number of participants, the 7th annual Taste of the Arts provides an opportunity to experience art using all five senses.

The one-day fine art and food extravaganza on Aug. 29 features perfor-mances by local artists on 10 stages, an arts marketplace, hands-on activities and more than 30 local restaurant vendors.

The event, at 303 E. Main St., is free to the public but tickets will

be sold for food and drinks. Half of the ticket sale will go directly to support Arts United, which develops, coordi-nates and supports arts and cultural efforts in northeast Indiana.

Taste of the Arts begins at 11 a.m. and lasts until midnight.

“The admission is free because the key goal is accessibility,” said Susan Mendenhall, Arts United president.

The festival is “immer-sive,” Mendenhall added.

With six instrumental and dance performances

happening at one time, ongoing participatory activities and delicious aromas wafting through the air from the food vendors, attendees can see, hear, feel, taste and smell artistry in its many different forms.

“The real purpose of this event is to celebrate and support art diversity and highlight the culture and diversity of art in the community,” she said.

Last year, the event attracted roughly 25,000 people and the same number — weather permitting — is expected

this year as well. To accommodate, more performers and restau-rants are participating in the festival this year.

The performers are from the greater Fort Wayne area, said Carmen Tse, who is co-chairing the festival.

One of Tse’s favorite aspects of the festival is the arts activities area, where more than 40 nonprofit organizations provide kid-friendly activities. For example, children have the oppor-tunity to learn some moves from ballerinas

with the Fort Wayne Ballet, and musicians with the Fort Wayne Philharmonic introduce children to instruments.

Another highlight will be more than 20 plein air painters participating in Artlink’s Wet Paint Auction. Silent bids will be taken at the event for the art being created in front of the public eye. All proceeds will support programming at Artlink, a nonprofit art gallery.

Also, the Downtown Improvement District’s BuskerFest will take place alongside Taste

of the Arts at Freimann Square, 200 E. Main St. BuskerFest was canceled earlier this summer due to weather, but many of the performers will be participating in the event Aug. 29.

Put on by the Down-town Improvement District, Busker Square at Taste of the Arts cele-brates arts through street performance.

Busker Square is also free and takes place from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m.

THREE CONVENIENT LOCATIONSNowOpen!

About 100 members of the Executive Women’s Golf Association will play Aug. 29 at Chestnut Hills Golf Club in Fort Wayne. The occasion is a regional qualifying round for the association’s national championship.

“We expect 95 women here, including two women from headquarters and a USGA official,” said Jana Sebele, the founder of the Fort Wayne Chapter. “It should be a great event. It’s going to be really enjoy-able.”

The gathering begins with practice rounds on Aug. 28. Tee times begin at 7:30 a.m. Aug. 29.

“We do have spon-sorship opportunities. We’re using the money to

pay for the Friday night welcome reception and the Saturday banquet,” Sebele said. Sponsors also may contribute to the goodie bags provided by Vera Bradley. Email [email protected] for details.

Holiday Inn Suites will be the host hotel.

Chestnut Hills head professional and general manager Gary Gant said he is pleased to have the tournament in Fort Wayne. “Our EWGA team is very active and they send teams to these finals every year,” Gant said. “It’s good for the community — these ladies will be here for two or three days, using hotels, buying meals and every-thing.”

Golfers compete at the local level to qualify for one of the 15 regional tour-naments. The Fort Wayne regional will host EWGA golfers from the upper Midwest and Canada.

Sebele worked in Fort Wayne before moving to Naples, Fla., where she became active in the golf association. Sebele moved back to Fort Wayne in 2008. She is a bookkeeper for Schmidt Electric in Fort Wayne. “When I came up here I was looking for women to play golf with, and in the first two months we had 30 members and by the next spring we had 60. We currently have 103,” she said.

“I think one big thing is networking, meeting women from other professions. That and the friendship are big elements,” she said. “The age range is 18 to 81, and our expertise level is a 4 handicap to a brand new golfer.”

The local chapter plays each Wednesday at Colonial Oaks, 8218 Huguenard Road, and each Thursday at Chestnut Hills, 11502 Illinois Road. Golfers may play in a scramble format or sign up for stroke play to apply to their handicap. “And you can go back and forth,” Sebele said. Golfers have different playing partners each week.

The Fort Wayne chapter submitted informa-tion on five local courses. “We weren’t allowed to give any recommenda-tions,” Sebele said. “Our headquarters contacted the local courses and they gave a list of criteria.”

About 2,500 golfers from 120 cities compete on the local level. About 200 amateur golfers qualify to advance to the national finals Oct. 30 and 31 at The Westin Mission Hills Resort in Rancho Mirage, Calif.

Concordia graduate Bealaccepted to The Citadel

Concordia Lutheran High School 2015 graduate Lucas Beal of New Haven has been accepted to The Citadel military academy in Charleston, S.C.

Citadel admissions counselor Greg Dailey said Beal is one of three Indiana students accepted this fall.

He said about 650 of 2,500 applicants are accepted each year. “Not everyone is looking for a military college,” he said. “It’s a different experience. Our cadets are in uniform 24 hours a day, seven days a week, if they’re within 25 miles of campus. The lifestyle is very structured.” He said the academic program is second to none. “They’re also getting the leadership development that takes place within the corps of cadets. It’s real-world, practical experience in leadership,” he said. Dailey said freshmen are known as the knob class because the young men have to shave their heads.

At Concordia, Beal was active in the JROTC program, and lettered in football and lacrosse. At The Citadel, he plans to major in mechanical engineering and political science. He receives a three-year, Army ROTC scholarship. Upon gradua-tion, he will enter the Army as a 2nd lieutenant.

Beal is a son of Army veteran Laura Beal and Navy retiree Craig Beal. His younger brother, Jason, hopes to attend the Naval Academy.

Beal said he welcomes the challenge of The Citadel. “They say it’s easy to get into The Citadel but it’s hard to stay. They say it’s one of the hardest colleges to stay in, academ-ically,” he said. “I like to do things big and going to The

Citadel is a big thing.”

He hopes to become a mechanical engineer. “I owe the Army six

years after college, but I

plan to retire after 30,” he said.

While the South Caro-lina Corps of Cadets is a widely recognized part of The Citadel, the college also operates non-military degrees and certification programs through graduate and evening programs.

The 2015 Huntertown Heritage Days Festival has been canceled. The festival, themed “We Honor Our First Responders,” was scheduled for Sept. 11 and 12.

“I don’t see Huntertown Heritage Days going away, I just see that it’s not going to happen this year because of a lack of donations and volunteer help,” said Kregg Snyder, festival committee president. “It’s beyond disappointing. There are

only five of us that [serve on the committee]. With your own life and your job, to try and do the job of 10-20 people and finding money, it’s hard.”

Snyder said that festival committee has begun dialogue with the town park committee — Friends of Huntertown Parks Inc. — about taking over the festival and moving it to the park. For 2015, Snyder said discussions with park board President Dan Holmes center on a family picnic day in October,

including a performance by the band that was booked for the festival.

According to Snyder, it takes between $12,000 and $14,000 to put on a typical two-day Heritage Days Festival weekend. So far in 2015, Snyder said, only $2,500 had been donated.

“I have been getting a lot of interest here lately in the parade and the merchant tent, but there was almost nothing until the last couple of weeks. It was looking pretty dreary for a festival,” Snyder said.

Little River Wetlands Project plans the 2015 Monarch Festival from noon-4 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 13, at Eagle Marsh preserve, 6801 Engle Road, Fort Wayne. Admission is free.

The event celebrates the monarch butterfly, hundreds of which are likely to be stopping by the preserve on their fall migration.

The festival will offer displays, including live monarchs in various stages of metamorphosis. Visitors will learn about monarchs’ life cycle, migration, and threats to their survival. Visitors can hike a trail among towering sunflowers to see a variety of butterflies. There will be a presentation on monarchs in their winter home, and many activ-ities for children. New this year will be a station where participants can learn how to tag monarchs and why it is important to track their 2,000-mile migration to their wintering grounds in Mexico.

Attendees will be given varieties of milk-

weed, the only plant on which monarchs can lay their eggs, for planting in home gardens or at the preserve. At a Pollinator Farmers Market, also new this year, visitors can buy native plants for their gardens to help butterflies and other pollinators survive. “As monarch populations dip to precipitously lower levels, the Monarch Festival showcases the butterflies’ plight, but also emphasizes what anyone — from home gardeners to farmers and businesses — can do to help,” LRWP said in a statement.

For details, visit lrwp.org, email [email protected], or call (260) 478-2515.

The festival is presented by Lutheran Health Network with major funding from a Wells Fargo Environ-mental Solutions for Communities grant through the National Fish and Wildlife Foun-dation. General Motors and Coventry Meadows have contributed to help support the Monarch Festival.
