FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 21,2007 www.mlive.com Friends mourn for 2 killed by dogs Canines euthanized after attacks in Iosco Township JAMIE CHARBENEAU-PISELLAJHE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS Ken Noye, owner of Angelo's Pizza & Deli in Howell Township, with a message he posted in support of the Harper family of Iosco Township. Cheryl Harper died in a dog attack last week. BY SUSAN L. OPPAT AND TOM TOLEN News S ta f f Reporters The sign at Angelo’s Pizza and Deli has carried birthday greetings, anniversary announcements and various welcome-home messages. Earlier this week the sign at Burkhart and Mason roads carried the sad news of a funeral and encouraging words for a Mend. “Stay strong Harper. In loving memory. Cher.” The information on one side offered the details for the Wednesday funeral service for Cheryl Harper, 56, one of two Iosco Township residents killed Sept. 13 in a vicious dog attack. The message was for her husband, Jim Harper, a regular at the store, according to owner Ken Noye. “Jim’s been coming in the store forever,” said Noye. “He comes in every morning at 6:05 on the dot.” Except last Saturday. “He called me to tell me he wouldn’t be in, that the dog victim was his wife. My jaw dropped. “Monday was terrible. He came in at the usual time and walked up to me and said. ‘Ken, I need a hug.’ It was pretty emotional.” Noye said he is baffled as to what could have caused the tragedy. Ironically, Noye said, Cheryl Harper “constantly called me about things to put on the sign. They knew so many people out here - neighbors, relatives, kids - and they marked their birthdays, anniversaries, you name it, on my sign.” State police were continuing their investigation this week as the dogs involved in the attack were euthanized and preliminary autopsy results were released. Also r Police enforce bus safety Drivers who pass flashers get tickets BY LEANNE SMITH News S ta f f Reporter Eight-year-old Stephen Bagnick has a message for motorists about what to do if they’re sharing the road with his school bus and see its flashing lights come on. “Stop!” the Hamburg Elementary School third-grader said. “Or you’ll crash into people.” If they don’t stop and are pulled over by a Hamburg Township police officer, the message is going to be the same. And they’ll get a ticket as a reminder. Pinckney Community Schools and the Hamburg Township Police Department have joined forces to periodically put officers on the district’s school buses this year to watch for hazardous drivers. If the officers on the bus witness violations, they will radio a message to another officer following in a patrol car, who will stop and ticket the motorist. “I see all kinds of careless and reckless driving where school buses are concerned,” said Officer Mike Krause, who gave the SEE SAFETY, A4 It's th e la w Pinckney Community Schools and the Hamburg Township Police Department remind motorists to take extra caution around school buses now that classes are back in session. Motorists should always: ■ Prepare to stop when a school bus turns on its overhead flashing yellow lights. ■ Come to a complete stop at least 20 feet away from a school bus when its overhead red lights are flashing. ■ Stay stopped until the school bus resumes motion or turns off its overhead lights. ■ Remember that school buses are required to stop at all railroad crossings.

Neighbors of the woman whose dogs killed two Iosco Township residents last week are flooding Michigan State Police with reports that the dogs got out of their kennel a number of times. Trooper Jeff Frasier, one of three officers investigating the attacks, said “there have been times they have gotten out.” But, he said, in those cases neighbors said the dogs left the property and returned. “But they didn’t think SEE DOGS,A3 2 boys face sex charges May incident involved 7-year-old on Howell bus BY JOHN MULCAHY News Staff Reporter Two boys who attend a Howell elementary school are accused of forcing a 7-year-old boy to perform oral sex on them while they were on the bus in May. The suspects - a 9-year-old and 11-year-old boy - now face charges in Livingston County Juvenile Court, including one count each of first- and seconddegree criminal sexual conduct and gross indecency between males. At a Sept. 14 hearing, the 11-year-old was released on a $25,000 personal bond with requirements that he be monitored by an adult 24 hours a day - including when he goes to the bathroom at school - and that he not be allowed to visit his mother overnight if his two younger siblings are present. The 9-year-old boy was charged in August and is awaiting a hearing in juvenile court. The conditions for the 11- year-old were set by attorneyreferee Margaret Gillis Ayalp, who presided over the hearing. The boy’s court-appointed attorney, Carolyn Heniy of Howell, said the boy pleaded not guilty. She called the bail and contfitions excessive. “My client was mistreated,” she said. “In the blink of an eye, he went from being a boy to be- SEE ASSAULT, A4 IN S ID E New venue Fowlerville’s new Performing Arts Center opens up new possibilities for students.

Special section inside O ld s c h o o lh o u s e e n d e a r s it s e lf to fa m ily Converted into house, one-room Earl School became scene of many gatherings BY TOM TOLEN News Staff Reporter Diana Murdock is a veiy content woman. Not only does she live near most of her five children and 10 grandchildren, but her home for the past 20 years has been the former, one-room Earl School, which her father had extensively renovated. She and her former husband bought the schoolhouse and 20 acres in 1972 and then sold the building to her father, Roger Lee, who added a second story to the high-roofed building and converted it into a home. Already retired, he lived there in the summer and wintered in Florida, and the home became the center for family gatherings. “It’s great knowing that dad had lived here,” says Murdock, an energetic 69-year-old. “The kids don’t want me to sell it,” she says. “The schoolhouse has a special place in everybody’s hearts.” Her father died in 1979. Murdock, who inherited it, moved in around 1987, after the homemaker had raised her family. Although the home looks different than it did earlier, it still is crowned with the original cupola. The school bell hanging there now is a reproduction that Murdock bought; she does not know what happened to the original bell. The room where coal used to be stored was converted into a utility room and a loft was added that has two bedrooms and a bath. TTie home has other interesting touches. “The fireplace is where the furnace was,” Murdock said. 'The main level was subdivided, with a full bath, kitchen and living room (with cathedral ceiling) put in and a sunroom added to the rear, she said. A spiral staircase was installed to connect the first and second floors. A small cloakroom for the students and a storage area that were toward the front of the school were removed to create more living room space. “I just love being here,” Murdock says. “I feel I’ll probably live here forever. I’m going to keep it and take care of it as long as I can.” SEE SCHOOLHOUSE, A4 Genoa Township resident Diana Murdock lives in the former Earl Lake School on Golf Club Road, which was a oneroom schoolhouse. Murdock's father converted the school into a private residence.

M an charged with lewd behavior at library Hamburg Police make arrest Monday BY LEANNE SMITH News S ta f f Reporter Hamburg Township Police arrested a man Monday who was allegedly masturbating while using one of the township library’s computers. Police Chief Steve Luciano said the man was taken to the Livingston County Jail and charged with three misdemeanor counts of lewd and lascivious behavior. He was arraigned 'Ibesday. The incident Monday was the third time the man had been witnessed acting suspiciously at the library, Luciano said. He was cooperative when interviewed by police, he said. “This is not a normal occurrence in our community,” said Holly Hentz, library director. “We take this situation very seriously and are working hand-in-hand with the authorities to make sure this man is punished.” The library’s board of directors met Tuesday night to permanently ban the individu^ from the library, Hentz said. Prior to Monday’s incident, the man had been asked to leave the library on two previous occasions after employees witnessed what they thought was suspicious behavior, Hentz said. The actions of the man were not seen by other library patrons at any time, Hentz said. The computer the man was using and video surveillance tapes have been secured by library officials but not turned over to the police. According to Hentz, public materials, including computers, used by library patrons are protected by the state’s Library Privacy Act and can only be released by a court order. N e w d i r e c t o r f o r H o w e l l r e c a u t h o r i t y g e t s t o w o r k Mikula outlines plans for programs BY LAURIE HUMPHREY News S ta f f Reporter Debbie Mikula is a social person with friends and colleagues all over the state. As the new director of the Howell Area Recreation Authority, she plans to call on all of them to “build the community into a great place to live, to work and to visit.” Mikula, former executive director of the Michigan Association of Community Arts Agencies, has spent the better part of her life working to improve people’s lives through enrichment programs. “Now I have the opportunity to do something in my own hometown,” said the Howell resident and mother of three. She begins her new job Sept. 24. Seen as the “nontraditional candidate” without a background in parks and recreation, Mikula, 47, impressed the authority’s interview committee with her “energy, leadership skills and knowledge” of the nonpublic sector, said Howell City Manager Shea Charles. She has a background in grant writing and can bring agencies together for the benefit of area residents. She will refy on those team-building skills to further solidify partnerships between current authority members (the city of Howell, and townships of Oceola, Genoa and Marion,) while also reaching out to nonmembers. That will begin with visits to each of the loc^ units of government. “The game plan is to attend township meetings. I will try to make at least one a month,” she said. She believes that first step will help to build confidence in the authority, which will lead to strong communications and a unified vision for county recreation. “Parks and recreation is at the top of people’s minds right now,” she said “Our quality of life is important. We all moved out to this area to have those things.” She would like to see her department collaborate with Debbie Mikula, new director of the Howell Area Recreation Authority. other groups to maintain open spaces, improve and expand t i^ s , and provide programming that targets everyone in the community. As paut of that goal, she believes more commimication between the authority and other recreation groups within the county also is necessary. “Elverybody is going to have to contribute,” she said. Looking ahead in the near future, Mikula’s top priorities include the creation of a five-year recreation master plan and facilitating a separation of the authority finm the city of Howell. While she doesn’t expect there will ever be a complete separation, given that the authority’s office and most of the parks are in city, she will look at transitions for staff, equipment and finances. “The funding structure is already in place,” said Charles, referring to the authority’s three-tier price schedule for programming that is based on each local unit of government’s financial contribution to the authority. Earlier this year, the city of Howell and Oceola Township each committed $100,000 to the authority with the townships of Marion and Genoa dedicating $59,000 apiece. A recreation millage was put before voters in August 2006, that would have shared the financial burden among the four Debbie M ikula ■ Residence: Howell. ■ Age: 47. ■ Family: Richard, husband of 23 years, retired from the U.S. Navy; children Katie, 18; Elly, 16; Tim, 13. ■ Education; Michigan State University, bachelor of fine arts in theater; American University in Washington, D.C., did course work toward a master's degree in arts management, but didn't complete thesis. ■ In free time: Advocates for historical theater restoration; active with Livingston Arts Council and Community Theater of Howell. ■ Hobbies: Reading and gardening. ■ Biggest benefit of new job: She traded a 90-mile round trip commute for a walk of a few blocks.

A three-tier system was then implemented to provide equity to the governments providing most of the authority’s financial backing. Miktila does not plan to seek another millage soon, but said “at some point” there will be a request. In the meantime, she will focus on making the program sustainable with the f a d ing available. She also plans to seek state grants. “I’m excited with the new challenge, and plan to give it everything I’ve got,” she said. Authority chairman 'Todd Smith believes her. “Envisioning and implementing a full campaign to establish a sustainable regional authority will take hard work, great marketing and communications, and we believe Debbie is the person that will make all this possible.” IN B R I E F Brighton South Ore Creek dredging begins Work began Monday on a dredging project to open the entrance of South Ore Creek into Brighton Lake which has been partially blocked for two years because of silt accumulation.

City to flush fire hydrants The cily’s water division will flush fire hydrants for one week, beginning Monday from midnight to 7 a.m. daily. Residents are advised to plan water use accordingly because pressure may be reduced during those times. Customers may experience discolored water after flushing occurs in their area. Officials recommend running cold water for 10 minutes to clear it. Contact Brighton Utilities Superintendent 'Tim Krugh at 810-227-9479 if a problem persists. H am bu rg Township Police revive man with defibrillator A township police officer used an automated external defibrillator Sept. 15 to revive a man who had gone into cardiac arrest at his home. Chief Steve Luciano said officers were called to the 10000 block of Margaret Drive at about 10:30 p.m. by the man’s wife. He said officers used the AED to revive the 66-yearold man, who was taken to the University of Michigan Medical Center by Livingston County Ambulance. The Hamburg Enhanced Recreation Organization raised money last winter to purchase 10 of the AEDs for the police department, Luciano said. Discrimination lawsuit dismissed A gender discrimination lawsuit filed against the township by two of its female employees has been dismissed. Laurie Pravato, an accountant, and Karen Jones, a billing and payroll clerk, claimed they had taken on more duties and responsibilities throughout their careers but were not promoted, given raises or paid equally to male counterparts because they are female. They filed suit in U.S. District Court in February 2006 and the case was dismissed by U.S. District Judge Arthur J. 'Tamow last month. The women had sought more than $75,000 in damages. Both were hired in 1996 and are still employed by the township. They work for Clerk Joanna Hardesty.

Man faces prison for bank fraud A former Howell used-car dealer faces up to 30 years in prison after pleading guilty to bank fraud in U.S. District Court in Detroit. Steven FUtz, who until 2005 did business as Steve Brown Used Cars at 904 E. Grand River Ave., pleaded guilty last week before Judge Paul V. Gadola to one count of bank fraud in connection with fraudulent transactions involving more than 20 vehicles. He was arrested Feb. 16, 2006, after a lengthy investigation by the FBI, Howell Police, Michigan State Police and the Livingston and Washtenaw Narcotics Enforcement Team, orLAWNET. FBI officials have said FUtz assured customers he would purchase their cars outright and satisfy the amounts still owed the banks on the vehicles, but would then sell the cars without paying off the loans. Using faked signatures, Fbltz would provide used-car customers with titles that indicated the vehicle liens had been paid. Fbltz faces sentencing Jan. 8 in U.S. District Court. 3-year plan offered for school opening As Howell Public Schools considers whether it can open both high schools by the 2009- 10 school year. Associate Superintendent Rick Terres has presented the school board with a three-year draft plan analyzing operational costs. Draft figures show that, for year one, operation of one building for grades 9-12 (Parker) and one 9-10 grade building (Howell High School North Campus) would cost $765,000 above and beyond current levels. As planned now, year one would be the 2008-09 school year, when the current Freshman Campus would be closed and freshmen moved to Parker. In year two, with a 9-12 building and a 9-11 building and all associated expenses, the district would need an additional $878,000. The total, however, would come to $1.6 million because the $765,000 is an ongoing expense. In the third year, an additional $708,000 would see both high schools fully open, with students in grades 9-12 and the current Freshman Campus closed, Terres said. Annual operating cost for the two schools would then be $2.35 million. Superintendent Chuck Breiner said the district would need a 375-pupil increase to pay for the plan. Livingston County 10 illegal aliens are arrested Ten illegal aliens from Mexico and Guatemala were arrested in Livingston County last weekend and are being held pending deportation, officials said. State Police at the Brighton post said Trooper Jason Nemecek and officers with the Livingston and Washtenaw Narcotics Enforcement Team were working on a narcotics trafficking detail on I- 96 in Genoa Township when they stopped a full-size van with illegally tinted windows. Officers found the 10 people inside, none of whom spoke English. 'lY’oopers said they used Language Line, an interpretation service available by telephone to any state agency, to determine who the people were. Police said U.S. Immigration and Customs in Detroit had issued detention orders for the people, and they are being held in the Livingston County Jail pending deportation.

Bids were awarded at a meeting of the Brighton Downtown Development Authority IXiesday, with Irish Construction Co. of Howell the low bidder as general contractor at $299,900. The remainder of the total amount covers lighting, design and engineering costs. St. Paul will be converted into a one-way thoroughfare from Grand River to West Street, and West Street, which connects with St. Paul at a 90- degree angle at the Mill Pond, will be one-way fi-om Main Street to St. Paul Street. Both will have angle parking on one side of the street, creating 17 additional parking spaces. The change is designed to improve safety while addressing the lack of sufficient parking on that side of downtown. “I think it’s a great opportunity for the Downtown Development Authority to enhance that quadrant by improving parking and pedestrian safety and to continue the improvements they have made all over downtown,” said Piet Lindhout of Liindhout Associates, the city’s architect. As part of the overall project, an enhanced pedestrian crosswalk will be installed where West and St. Paul streets meet in front of St. Paul’s Episcopal Church. The crosswalk will extend diagonally across the street comer to the parking lot behind the Yum Yum TVee. The crosswalk will be of stamped concrete, which has the ap- A schematic of the road work planned for the city of Brighton, which includes a facelift for St. Paul and West streets. COURTESY, LINDHOLfT AND ASSOCIATES pearance of brick, but at less cost. A pedestrian circle, which Lindhout - with tongue in cheek - has called “Brighton’s first pedestrian roundabout,” will be constructed in front of the church. The circle is going in because “that’s where the sidewalks from the Mill Pond gazebo, old town hall and church all converge,” Lindhout said. A sculptime will be placed in the middle of the circle. Brighton Police Chief Tom Wightman said because there is no traffic light at Grand River and St. Paul, getting from the side street onto busy Grand River Avenue has been a dangerous maneuver. Drivers queued up a block away from Main Street waiting for the traffic light to change frequently make room for motorists coming from St. Paul street who want to turn left. By the time vehicles enter the intersection, traffic is often moving in the westboimd lanes of Grand River, trapping the drivers in the middle and causing many “near-misses,” Wightman said. A novel aspect of the St. Paul-West streets project is that angled parking will be on the right side on St. Paul Street and on the left side on West Street. Lindhout says the measure is necessary to properly align one-way traffic on West Street with West Street past Main treet, where it becomes two-way. Other improvements include “eyebrow” comers that narrow the distance pedestrians must go to cross the street and streetscape work such as brick pavers. DTE will remove the three existing “cobra” streetlights, which ^ be replaced by Victorian lighting. Whitney says that, with the upgrades, the private sector also will likely improve the nearby area. “Every place we have invested, (business) people have done an enhancement in that area,” he said. Originally, the DDA intended to install enhanced pedestrian crosswalks at the West Main-West streets intersection this fall. However, that may have to wait as much as two years, when Main Street is upgraded with new paving and sidewalks, so both projects can be done at the same time. Mark Binkley, Cooper & Binkley Jewelers owner and a member of the DDA, says the delay can’t be helped. “When you tear up Main Street twice, is it the best use of taxpayers’ dollars?” he asked. Binkley said that crossing the street already is “a lot safer” due to the enhanced crosswalks at Hyne and First streets and the NUU Pond. Also to be delayed is a planned, 34-space parking lot between the chmx:h and AAA Muffler. Officials said the new on-street parking spaces should tem p o r^ y address the parking problem on that side of town. The street work will start around Oct. 1 and be completed by the end of November.

Sign s aim to educate people about keeping water clean Postings to appear near bodies of water all around county BY TOM TOLEN News S ta f f Reporter “Sign, sign, everywhere a s ig n ...” - Lyrics from the 1970 hit “Signs” by the Five Man Electrical Band that reached No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. Motorists across Livingston County have been noticing signs popping up near various bodies of water, promoting the need to protect local water resources. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s storm water rules require local governments to regulate the amount of pollution coming through storm drains and into lakes and streams. According to Livingston County Drain Commissioner Brian Jonckheere, the signs comply with the EPA requirement that local governments educate the public about the problem of water runoff and the need to keep storm water as clean as possible. The initiative, Jonckheere adds, is designed to make individuals aware of how they impact water quality by what they do, such as over-fertilizing their lawns and using pesticides and other chemicals and substances that end JAMIE CHARBENEAU-PISELLAJHE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS This sign, posted in Brighton Township along Hunter Road, is like many posted around Livingston County to educate the public about water quality and its impact on the watershed. up in lakes and streams. “People tend to associate water quality with pouring into the water and don’t understand they can have a significant impact,” Jonckheere says. He says rules enforced in recent years by the EPA and state Department of Environmental (Quality have lessened industrial discharge to the point where residential discharge has a greater impact on water quality. “Our hope is (as a result of the signs) people will call their DPW or township hall and ask about the issues, and it has a snowball effect,” Jonckheere says. The signs are in the process of being installed, and in all, 142 signs are scheduled to be placed all over the county near wetlands, lakes, rivers and creeks. Livingston County has three major watersheds - the Hiu-on River, Red Cedar River and Shiawassee River. By using the Huron River Watershed Council template used for its signs, the county got a bargain, paying only $3,900 for the signs. The final cost will be zero, since each municipality will reimburse the drain commissioner’s office for its signs. “(The municipalities) really stepped up to the plate, and the Road Commission is installing them free,” says Becky Simpson, the drain commission office’s water resources coordinator. Simpson says the educational program is badly needed. “A lot of people didn’t know the definition of a watershed,” she says. (It’s a land area that drains water into a river system or other body of water.) The 24-by-30-inch signs are blue, green and black on a white background, and their installation is to be completed this fall. The next project will be to identify local storm drains by placing medallion signs next to the drains. Jonckheere says what many people don’t realize is that what goes into storm drains ends up, untreated, in lakes and streams. The labels will specify into which body of water the storm water empties. Three local Boy Scout troops have volunteered to help install the signs as part of their community service work. Jonckheere says one major reason for the educational program is to get people talking about watershed issues so they take more of an active part in preserving water quality. “The real motivation has to come from people, because there are not enough rules to enforce a change in people’s behavior,” he says. At the bottom of the signs is the e-mail address where citizens may get more information on water quality and watershed issues: www.livingstonwater. org.

At press time this week, a police investigation was continuing into the incident. D O G S FROM A1 10 dogs were euthanized much of it. It took something like this. Now, lots and lots of people we talk to say they’ve seen them loose.” But, he said, “if they menaced anyone, no reports were generated.” Anne Burns, director of Livingston County Animal Control, said all 10 of Diane Cockrell’s American bulldogs and bulldog mixes, including four believed to have been involved in the attacks and six others, were euthanized Thesday with Cockrell’s permission. Burns said the agency determined all of the dogs were unadoptable. Frasier said police now understand that Cockrell was out of town at the time of the attacks Sept. 13, and that a local teenager was taking care of the dogs. He said both Cockrell and the teen are cooperating with police. Cockrell could not be reached for comment Tuesday. Frasier said at mid-week that the investigation was nearly complete. But he said that, based on evidence at the scene, police believe the dogs attacked and killed Gerlach in his driveway on Crofoot Road, about 50 yards from Cockrell’s home. Then, he said, police believe they ran about 200 yards and attacked Harper as she took her daily walk. Harper was barely alive when police found her, but Frasier said she was unable to speak. An autopsy conducted at Sparrow Hospital in Lansing indicated Gierlach died of multiple injuries. The Ingham County Medical Examiner’s office refused to release the autopsy report on Harper, cit- Preventing d o g a tta ck s Here are some basic safety tips: ■ Do not approach an unfamiliar dog. ■ Do not run from a dog and scream. ■ Remain motionless when approached by an unfamiliar dog. ■ If knocked over by a dog, roll into a ball and lie still. ■ Children should not play with a dog unless supervised by an adult. ■ Immediately report any stray dogs or dogs that display unusual behavior. ■ Avoid direct eye contact with a dog. ■ Do not disturb a dog that is sleeping, eating, or caring for puppies. ■ Do not pet a dog without allowing it to see and sniff you first.

Harper, who had three adult children and two grandchildren, was a retired Farmington area school bus driver. Neighbor Ann Reid said Harper often carried treats with her on her walks for the neighborhood dogs and for the horses Cockrell boarded on her property. — mi i.fviv.sroN — COMMUNITY NEWS Published each Friday.

Jim Sanderson followed behind. “I don’t see a lot of illegal passing because I’m usually in my marked car and people see me, but I know it happens. Maybe this will help stop it.” The joint message from police and school officials to drivers is simple. “Be safe, be aware and be patient,” said Hamburg Police Chief Steve Luciano. “We have a lot of narrow roads and obstructed views on our rural roads. And kids typically don’t look out for traffic. You need to look out for them.” The law also is pretty straightforward, Luciano said. “It’s just like they teach you in driver’s ed,” he said. “Stop your vehicle when you see a bus’ yellow lights flashing because the red lights requiring you to stop are seconds away.” This isn’t always what drivers do, said Connie Vetrone, who’s driven a Pinckney school bus for five years. “They treat my yellow lights just like a traffic light yellow and go faster around me,” she said. “They’ll take just about any risk to pull out in front of me or beat the bus so they aren’t behind me.” Pinckney Superintendent Dan Danosky and Sue Joerin, the district’s transportation supervisor, applaud the police department’s concern and assistance. Pinckney buses were involved in three accidents in Hamburg Township in about a three-week period last winter. On Feb. 13, a bus carrying six Lakeland Elementary School kindergartners was struck by a car on M-36 that had apparently run a red traffic light at the intersection of Pettys Road. Neither the students nor the bus driver were injured. JAMIE CHARBENEAU PISELLA.THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS Parent Carol Purcell at the bus stop for a Hamburg Elementary School bus run las t w eek.

HOWELL CARNEGIE DISTRICT LIBRARY ARCHIVES Diana Murdock inside her home, a former one-room schoolhouse in Genoa Township. Here, Murdock sits in her living room with her cat "Frank," where at one time school desks were lined up. The large schoolhouse windows can be seen behind her. Below is an old photo of The Earl School on Golf Club Road, half a mile east of Latson Road, as it existed in 1920. The school burned down in 1925 and was re-built on the same site the following year. Pictured, from left, are students Robert Hughes, Russell Hughes,Theron Drew, Ellis Drew, Ralph Walker, Lyle Whitaker, Fred Walker, Maurice Drew and teacher Anna McQuade. S C H O O L H O U S E F R O M A1 When school was built, road didn't even have a name Murdock lives in the home, off Latson Road in Genoa Township, with her two dogs, several cats and an 18-year old cockatiel named Fred. In addition to her own cats, Murdock, a volunteer for Last Chance Rescue, is temporarily caring for four abandoned cats. The nonprofit group rescues unwanted pets that would otherwise be euthanized. The school building that is now her comfortable, spacious home was built around 1916. The road it was built on, now paved Golf Club Road, was dirt, and at the time didn’t even have a name. “Roads (in Livingston County) weren’t named until 1935, unless they were in the towns,” says unofficial Livingston County historian Milt Charboneau, who volunteers in the archives section of the Howell Carnegie District Library. The school burned down in 1925 and was rebuilt the next year. Although everyone called it the Earl School (after a nearby lake), its legal name was “Genoa " I^ . Earl No. 1 Fractional,” Charboneau says. In those days, long before consolidation took place, each individual school was like a selfcontained school district. During the heyday of oneroom schooUiouses, there were no hot lunch programs and no school vending machines. Students brought their own lunches to class, but they weren’t necessarily cold lunches. “We’d put our potatoes on the furnace and had hot potatoes by lunchtime,” says Evelyn Fogle of Howell, who attended the school from 1929-32. She says a sandwich might go with the potato and that would constitute her lunch, with perhaps an apple for dessert. Fogle was one of 13 children, eight sisters and four brothers, which made it hard for her father to keep everyone fed because he was a sharecropper, farming someone else’s land and keeping a portion of the crop for himself. Despite a Spartan lifestyle, the children still managed to have fim. “During lunch hour, we’d go out and jump the (nearby) creek,” says Fo^e, now 82. Her fondest memory of the school: “Christmas plays. Everybody had a part in the play,” she says. “It was a great life,” says Fogle, who is related to Murdock by marriage. Fogle’s son, Tom, is married to one of Murdock’s daughters. After the third grade, her family moved to Cohoctah Township and she attended a different school. The Earl School finally closed its doors around 1938, and it was sold to a nearby farmer named Jesse Spaulding, now deceased, who used the building for storage. After many years of slow deterioration, he sold the property to the Murdocks, who gave it a new lease on life. Tom Tolen can be reached at ttolen@livingstoncommunitynews. com or at810-844-2009.

He called it a mistake. “I think everyone in the organization knows that the superintendent should have been made aware of this,” Breiner said. “I think in the zeal of closing the school year, word did not reach me.” Breiner said the elementary school principal was first advised of the incident in May. She alerted the Livingston County Sheriff’s Department and the district’s transportation department, which provided investigators with some video from the school bus, Breiner said. Breiner said it’s possible for activity to occur behind the high seat backs on a school bus, which are hidden from both the driver and the lens of the video camera. All three students involved in the incident are still enrolled in Howell Public Schools, Breiner said, but the 11-year-old is not attending classes. ^ ■ THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 2 1 , 2 0 0 7 A5 Livingston County property sales property sold recently throughout the county: W elln e ss Center ■ What: MediLodge of Howell is opening a new, 8,000-square-foot Wellness Center. ■ When: Grand opening is Tuesday, 3-6 p.m. ■ Where: 1333 W.

That’s an area where most of us could use some help. Because many people spend more time in their cars commuting to jobs where they sit in front of their computers, there are huge portions of the day when the most walking we do is a few steps between our desks and the office coffee pot. The Livingston Y, under newly appointed executive director and longtime booster Dawn Palmer-VanCamp, is stepping in to help us be more active. The Sept. 27 open house (6-8 p.m. at Cleary University) is designed to help community members learn about ways to add 2,000 steps to our daily routines and trim back calorie consumption by 100 calories. The goal is to log 1.4 million steps in Livingston County, which would be reached by having 100 people take 2,000 additional steps a day for seven days. Those who sign a commitment form will get a pedometer to help track those extra steps. Those modest changes can prevent the average annual weight gain of one to two pounds, according to research by the America on the Move Foundation. That organization is teaming up with YMCAs across the nation during “America on the Move Week,” Sept. 22-29. I must confess that my wife got me a pedometer a few months ago, but I’m not consistent about wearing it. Her goal for me was a lot higher than an additional 2,000 steps per day, but that’s my cross to bear. So, to make amends, I wore it to work the other day to check out one of my lunchtime walks. One of the advantages of working in downtown Brighton - or any downtown business district - is the ability to take a walk during the day. I often head out the back door, and walk in any one of several directions. One common lunchtime trek for me is to take a loop around the Mill Pond. It’s an easy walk, the wildlife in the Mill Pond is a great change of scenery from my computer screen and the distance - 2,438 steps in 29 minutes - is perfect for an after-lunch stroll. Or with several restaurants along the route, it’s easy to walk to lunch and not feel nearly as guilty about what I eat. If I leave by the front door, I can walk toward the Brighton Police Department on Third Street, make a loop through the new Karl Greimel Memorial Arboretum and be back at the office 2,808 steps later. This walk takes me at least 30 minutes, more depending on how long I linger at the Brighton Lake overlook. Local officials in every community in Livingston County have taken steps to make their areas more walkable for residents and visitors. There are sidewalks, bike paths and wooded trails galore throughout the county. I urge you, along with the Livingston County Family YMCA, to be among those making the commitment to step it up a bit. TWo thousand extra steps can cost you as little as 30 minutes a day. The benefits will last a lifetime.

Conductor Marc Kalis waves from one of the rail cars as it departs for Ann Arbor during the seventh annual Hamburg Festival & Railroad Days. Visitors to this year's festival were treated to rides on the double-decker trains that are proposed to be part of the proposed Washtenaw and Livingston Line commuter train that would run between Ann Arbor and Howell. PHOTOS: JIM JAGDFELD, SPECIAL TO THE NEWS Residents give commuter train a try Start date hasn't been set yet for Washtenaw-Livingston line BY LEANNE SMITH News Staff Reporter Brenda Vidovic got her first ride Sept. 15 in a seat that she hopes to become very familiar with in the near future. It was on one of the shiny, double- decker rail cars that would be part of the proposed Washtenaw and Livingston Line commuter train, nicknamed WALLY. The ride was part of the seventh annual Hamburg Festival & Railroad Days. Vidovic, of Hamburg Township, works at the University of Michigan’s Department of Education as a membership marketing coordinator for the Society for College & University of Planning. She said being able to take the train to work every day would be a dream. “I’d do it in a heartbeat,” she said. “This will save so much money in gas and parking and save me from having so many headaches on US-23.” Always a hit with the little ones who love trains, like Vidovic’s 3-year-old son Parker, this yea r’s festival also excited a lot of parents. “This is awesome,” said Vidovic’s husband, Al. “Anyone who lives here and works in Ann Arbor should do this.” SEE RAILROAD, 82 Above, Launey Dovin sports an Amtrak Junior Conductors hat as he gets wheeled around the event by his niece.

Every one of the four scheduled trips of 275 people were sold out. The ride covered a good portion of the 27-mile commuter line that would run between Howell and a stop at Plymouth Road near Barton Drive in Ann Arbor. “I’m very excited about this,” said Jon Kramer of Hamburg Township, who took the first ride of the day with his family. “Even though I don’t work in Ann Arbor, I did envision what it would be like to be able to take this train and read a book or sleep versus honking your horn or slamming on your brakes. It was nice.” The rail project has threeyear commitments from UM and the Environmental Protection Agency to pay fares for employees who use its trains.

THEATER FROM B1 Facility included as part of school renovations funded by bond issue district hired theater professional Jeanine CuU to manage the center. She will work full-time for an annual salary of $33,000 with no benefits included. “The theater manager is the person who organizes the scheduling for the performing arts center, coordinates training and oversees events,” Cull said. “When we sta rt to branch out, the job will include publicizing and booking the space, writing up contracts and agreements, dealing with budgeting and planning.” Cull, 33, earned her maste r’s degree in theater from Michigan State University where she also did her undergraduate work as a theater major. She currently teaches in the theater departments of MSU and Lansing Community College. She studied at the Brave New Workshop improvisational theater in Minneapolis and served as marketing production manager for Mitchell Wallace Co. in Los Angeles before returning to MSU for her m aster’s in 2003. “We’re very fortunate to have someone of her ability and background in theater,” Superintendent Ed Alverson said. “We hope this will lead to a partnership with MSU theater department.” The theater was included as part of the school renovations and changes financed by the $49 million bond issue voters approved in 2004. Fowlerville’s state-of-thea rt theatrical equipment also is a draw to the MSU students Cull is teaching. The Fowlerville theater was designed by theatrical consultants Jones & Phillips Associates Inc. of Lafayette, Ind., in consultation with project architects from TMP Associates of Bloomfield Hills. Theatrical appointments include: ■ VORTEK self-contained, computerized, motorized- hoist, rigging system for scenery and for the Wenger acoustical orchestra shell. ■ Computer-aided set design. ■ Computerized management of 288 theatrical, house, working, instrument, and lobby lights. ■ Computerized audio-visual components. ■ Total-access catwalk system. ■ Fblly automated orches- Jeanine Cull ■ Age: 33. ■ Residence: East Lansing. ■ Family: Husband Ryan Cull, plant manager for Nalco Co. in Jackson; 17-month-old daughter, Elena. ■ Vocation: New manager of Fowlerville Performing Arts Center, instructor in theater departments of Michigan State University and Lansing Community College, theatrical director. ■ Other theatrical interests: Board member of the Peppermint Creek Theater Co. in Lansing, theater camps for BoarsHead Theater/YMCA in Lansing and All-of-us Express youth theater group in East Lansing. ■ Current project: Director of "As Bees in Honey Drown" by Douglas Carter Beane opening Sept. 18 at the Arena Theater in the MSU Auditorium Building, East Lansing. tra pit cover. Cull has been working with MSU theater department chairman George Peters and scenic designer Kirk Domer in anticipation of trading technical knowledge with the university. “We will form a partnership with MSU so that the (Fowlerville) students can go to MSU and MSU students will come to Fowlerville,” Cull said. “We’ve also talked about bringing some of the performances at MSU to Fowlerville.” Cull and key high school staff members were getting trained on the theater equipment this month. They will then schedule training for other staff and students. “I want the students to have the hands-on experience of working the sound board and the light board and the new VORTEK system,” Cull said. “We want to get this thing up and running as soon as possible. The band teacher and the drama teacher have already planned events for the fall.” Cull said this year will be spent focusing on school events until they get their feet on the ground. Then they will open the space to more programs. “We hope by next year to bring in family shows, things the whole community can enjoy like musical acts for kids,” Cull said. “Not that we’ll be limited to that, but I think it’s important to have a place in the community where kids can come with their family.” Cull welcomes community involvement and looks forward to working with the newly formed Friends of the Performing Arts Center. The group was created in the spring to help with publicity, fundraising, concessions, and running the house. “If members want to be trained on the equipment, I look forward to that,” Cull said. “I look forward to them introducing me to the community and what the community has to offer. I look at them as my liaison connection to the community.” Interested residents may join the Friends group by contacting Superintendent Ed Alverson at 517-223-6015. ;S.°oVMSBRIARWOODMALL ■ |.?4 S S.

Big Read program gets Hartland talking about 'Fahrenheit 45V LISA CAROLIN.THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS Hartland's Cromaine Library kicked off The Big Read during Heritage Day Sept. 15 giving away free copies of the book "Fahrenheit 451"written by Ray Bradbury. Here Hartland Township Clerk Ann Ulrich gets her book from Youth Librarian Carol Smith. Grant lets Cromaine Library build events around book BY LISA CAROLIN News S ta f f Reporter Hartland’s Cromaine Library is one of 117 libraries nationwide that has been selected to receive a National Endowment for the Arts Big Read grant. The community kicked off a full calendar of events Sept. 15 at the library when it handed out free copies of The Big Read book “Fahrenheit 451,” written by Ray Bradbury. It’s a novel about a society where books are banned and burned - a nightmarish thought to Cromaine Youth Librarian Carol Smith. “It’s a great book,” said Smith, who was handing out copies. “We’ve had a lot of adults come by who want to read it and teens who can get extra credit for reading it.” “We wanted to kick off The Big Read on Heritage Day in Hartland to tie the events together because everyone is coming into town,” said Carol Taggart, Cromaine’s marketing director. The day included musical entertainment by Robert Marr and Leslie Frederick, who performed original compositions written for The Big Read as well as several speakers including David Kipen, director of literature from the National Endowment for the Arts, which encourages literary reading by asking communities to come together to read and discuss a single book. “We get more applicants for The Big Read than we can give grants to, and we have to hand-pick communities from all the applications,” said Kipen. “We chose Cromaine Library and Hartland because everybody in town is involved. There’s a partnership with the schools and a lot of community events.” Those events include reading discussion groups and visiting speakers at the library addressing free speech and censorship.

Hartland residients celebrate another Heritage Day with hay rides, pie eating Event brings sense of community and history to visitors BY LISA CAROLIN News S ta f f Reporter Civil War scene re-enactments, vintage clothing, and an historic tea were a few of the activities Saturday, when Hartland celebrated its fourth annual Heritage Day. Tami Cain and Barbara Krueger, who are members of the Hartland Community Council, a group that was formed by J. Robert Crouse Sr. in 1935, and who are also part of the Hartland Area Historical Society, organized Heritage Day. “We had a great response this year and had more people involved than ever,” Cain said. “Every Hartland school was represented in some way. Tami Cain, one of the organizers and participants at Hartland's Heritage Day, leaves the Horence B. Dearing Museum. including the high school history club with students re-enacting events. Hartland has a strong community with a rich history.” There were tractor-pulled hay rides, a square dance, a pie-eating contest, an elementary school scarecrow contest, antique appraisals and a quilt display. “Heritage Day is a great opportunity for people to see what Hartland has to offer,” said Ann Ulrich, Hartland Township clerk, who was taking part in some of the activities. Pierce Aube and Kristin Jones, students at Hartland Middle School at Ore Creek, were selling crafts as part of a career education project at their school. “This was the first time I’ve come to Heritage Day and my first time seeing the museum,” Jones said. “It’s cool to see all the things collected there.” “It’s cool that all these people have come to Hartland today,” Aube said. Hartland Township was first settled in the early part of the 19th century when members of the Chippewa tribe lived there. Crouse, who grew up in the Hartland area in the 1880s, retired there in 1926 and developed Waldenwoods. In 1931, he unveiled the Hartland Area Project, which included the formation of the Hartland Art Council, Hartland Players, Hartland Schools Community Education and the Black Sheep Weavers as well as the construction of the Hartland Music Hall.

Stephan surprised the family with a lateafternoon offer to fly from the Howell High School campus to Argentine and Musson in Oceola Township. Julie Miller, Timmy’s mother, followed in a chase car. “For most people, the first five minutes (of the ride) is white-knuckle time. But they were so relaxed, smiling and talking the whole time,” said Stephan, who then began to laugh remembering the kids’ enthusiastic entry into the basket. Standing back a little, Stephan wanted to see if the pair could get into the basket on their own, despite the approximate 4-foot-high wall. “Boy, they both climbed in so quick and had these big grins on their faces the whole time,” he said. Stephan’s relationship with Miller and his family began in 2001, when Jedami and 31 other balloons landed in the family’s 10-acre backyard during the 16th annual Michigan Challenge Balloonfest. According to Julie Miller, Timmy’s mother, “I woke up and saw this balloon coming toward our house.” She grabbed her husband and went outside. A man, piloting the Father and Son hot air balloon, was hovering, said Chuck Miller, Timmy’s father. “He asked if he could land in our backyard.’ We said ‘sure,’ and he asked, ‘Do you mind if I bring a few Mends?”’ Chuck and Julie said, ‘OK,’ forever changing the way Timmy saw his yard, and balloons. Hot air balloons “just kept coming and coming, for more than an hour. We were thrilled,” Julie said. Since that experience, Timmy’s passion for hot balloons has continued to soar, inspiring him to contact pilots from around the county in search of balloon cards (similar to baseball cards) and other mementos for display in his balloon book. Today, Timmy is the proud owner of more than 50 balloon cards, magnets, pins, pictures and discarded pieces of pilots’ balloon envelopes. Stephan, who supplied 'Timmy with a balloon card many years ago, has kept in touch with the Millers, by flying low their home, invitations for them to chase the balloon, and most recently an invitation for them to crew. “Mom (Julie) volunteered Timmy and the family, so I’ll be getting them involved this year and next,” said Stephan. Crews help pilots prepare the basket and envelope for take off, follow the balloonist in chase vehicles, and then help pilots repack. The practice often leads to pilot training and a hot air balloon purchase. Timmy wants three or four balloons in various shapes for his 14th birthday. “I’m pretty sure that will happen,” said Julie about her son’s intentions of becoming a pilot. Although she wouldn’t commit to buying him a balloon for his birthday, she did say, “He’s very passionate about this.” Timmy said the day of the flight was the best day of his life. He even took home a few mementos to remind him of the experience. “We grabbed some leaves off the (tops of) trees,” Timmy said. The foliage will end up between the pages of his balloon book.

Romsek, C2 Recreation calendar, C2 SPORTS satesroa.'iriU'nnMr JASON DEEGAN The Livingston Community News Pirates aim for consistent gridiron play Consistency. It’s the one word that often keeps the Pinckney football team from winning. The Pirates (1-3) can play like champions for a short time, sometimes a drive, a quarter or a half, but rarely in the last five years have they been able to do so for a complete game. And that’s usually the difference in the rugged Kensington Valley Conference. The Pirates have lost three straight KVC games since winning their season-opener against Plymouth Salem. They play at Howell at 7 p.m. tonight. “The issue (with us) is we have to be consistent,” Pinckney coach Dan Burkholder said. “We’ve missed opportunities and you can’t do that.” Last week, the Pirates were mauled by South Lyon, 42-17, but there were still positives. The Pirate offense rolled up 381 total yards. “We move the ball consistently,” Burkholder said. “We just need to start finishing drives.” The Pirates, who haven’t won a league game since beating Hartland, 15-14, on Sept. 29,2006, have had moderate success against Howell. Of Pinckney’s three KVC wins since 2002, one was against Howell (not to mention the Pirates’ 34-33 heart-stopping loss to the Highlanders in 2005). Senior defensive tackle Nick Ortiz said it’s important for the Pirates to get off to a good start. The Highlanders will be hungry after suffering their first loss of the season, a 13- 9 setback to Novi. “We have the talent (to win). Sometimes, we just don’t believe in ourselves to take it to the next level to win the game,” Ortiz said. Burkholder said his players continue to stay positive, noting that in the KVC “anybody can beat anybody.” “We are definitely moving in the right direction, but we expected to be in a better situation with our record,” he said. Here’s a look at the rest of today’s 7 p.m. games: Whitmore Lake (4-0) at Morenci (2-2) - The long trip to Morenci is always tough but ... Whitmore Lake 28, Morenci 18.

The Fowlerville defense, which gives up less than 10 points a game, must play big against an offense that has scored more than 60 points twice. Fowlerville 28, DeWitt 27.

The 70-year-old Green Oak Township resident will take an eight-day hike in the Adirondacks this month and has plans to visit Costa Rica in February for more adventures. BY JA SO N DEEGAN News S ta f f Reporter Pete Lamb’s adventurous spirit won’t let him rest. The 70-year-old Green Oak Township resident admits he’s slowing, but he’s not about to quit chasing the things that thrill him - the rock and ice climbing, the hiking and biking and kayaldng. “I viill be doing this until I croak,” Lamb says with a laugh. “I don’t feel 70.1 feel 35.” Lamb’s tales of working mountain rescue in Europe in his youth, climbing in the Himalayas and trekking the Inca TYail in Peru sound like Hollywood movie scripts. He’s traveled to more than a dozen countries for outdoor excursions, many in recent years as a member of the School for Outdoor Leadership, Adventure and Recreation. SOLAR member Dave DeFrance says people in the club refer to Lamb as their “idol.” “It is incredible how much he has done in life, and how much he keeps doing,” says DeFrance, 59, of Oceola 'Township. “There have been a lot of adventures. He continues to amaze. He is like the poster child (of SOLAR). There is not a single person, in a club of 400, that doesn’t admire his fortitude.” Lamb and DeFrance are scheduled to leave Sept. 29 for an eight-day hike in the Adirondack Mountains.

The Cougars are fielding junior varsity teams that will become varsity teams in 2008. Cougars start with a quiet roar Building quality programs will take years BY JA SO N DEEGAN News S ta f f Reporter The new sparkling facilities at South Lyon East High School are better than what exist at many of the other well-established schools in the Kensington Valley Conference. The new tennis courts offer walkways between the courts, so coaches can better communicate with their players. The eight-lane pool has made practice easier for South Lyon coach John Burch, who trains the South Lyon Lions and the South Lyon East Cougars as a co-op team. The Cougar football field is made of artificial turf, a luxury Brighton wishes it had after poor field conditions forced the Bulldogs to play at Howell High School on Aug. 30. Now, all the new South Lyon East coaches have to do is build varsity programs worthy of their new facilities. The high school opened this fall with roughly 430 freshman and sophomores. Someday, the Cougars will be a fierce rival to the Lions. But the new coaches are tempering their expectations early on. There are four Cougar teams operating as junior-varsity programs this fall that will become varsity in 2008: football, boys soccer, boys tennis and volleyball. Cross country, girls golf and swimming are working as co-op teams with the current coaches SEE SOUTH LYON.C2 & r A 4 t i JAMIE CHARBENEAU-PISELLA.THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS Brighton senior Tom Hazen, ieft, tries to dribble past teammates during a passing driii at a recent practice. Hazen was seriousiy injured on a ski trip in Oregon on June 27. N e a r - f a t a l s k i a c c id e n t in t h e p a s t B r ig h t o n 's H a z e n s u r v i v e d 6 0 - fo o t fa l l BY JA SO N DEEGAN News S ta f f Reporter Brighton midfielder Tom Hazen dribbles around a teammate at a recent practice at Sloan Field. After some fancy footwork with the ball, he passes in a keep-away drill. The moves prove that the soft cast on his right wrist won’t slow the senior co-captain this season. The cast is a reminder that he’s fortunate to be playing at all. A skiing accident during a training trip to Mount Hood in Oregon on June 27 almost ended in tragedy. Hazen skied off a cliff, slamming into rocks that shattered two bones in his wrist. Brighton ski coach Renee Rhoades, who takes local skiers on trips regularly with a racing program she rims with her husband, Jeff, said Hazen is IucIqt to be alive. “He could have died, but because he’s such a wonderful athlete, he did some maneuvers that most kids can’t do,” Rhoades said. “If he was not able to jump over those rocks, he would have gone head-first. I can’t even think about it.” Hazen estimates he fell 60 feet and slid down the mountain another 60 feet before stopping. He blamed the accident on skiing in an unfamiliar area. “I saw this ridge, and I slowed down,” he recalled. “It wasn’t just a regular ridge. There was nothing to stop on. That’s how I laimched.” In emergency surgery that day, Hazen had a plate and five screws inserted. Brighton soccer coach Rob Williams said Hazen was back working out with the team just two weeks later. “His toughness is something that the team feeds off of,” Williams said. “He is not the biggest kid, but his heart is huge.” Hazen said the injury doesn’t bother him much, but he isn’t as physical as he once was. He scored the game-winning goal in a 2-1 win over Hartland Sept. 4 at Sloan Field. Hazen has high hopes for the Bulldogs under Williams. “We have enough talent to go far,” he said. He already has plans to return to the slopes. “He is very strong and very positive-minded,” Rhoades said. “He has recovered great. It shouldn’t be any hindrance on skiing.” Jason Deegan can be reached at jdeegan@ livingstoncommunitynews.com or at 810-844-2012. C2 THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 2 1 , 2 0 0 7 L A M B FROM C l Ice climbs the shores of Lake Superior each winter plans for more hiking, whitewater rafting, zip treW&ng and volcano climbing in Costa Rica in Ffebruary. Lamb, a retired General Motors Corp. engineer, grew up in England before coming to America in 1963. He never took to mainstream sports tike baseball, basketball or football. Lamb says one of his earliest feats was riding a bicycle 1,400 miles as a 14-year-old from Luxembourg to Italy and back. He’s hiked into base camp at Mount Everest and traversed 130 miles across the top of the Alps and climbed to the summit of Mount Rainier and Mount Baker in Washington state. Living an adventurous lifestyle does have its risks. Riding a bike at age 17, Lamb was hit by a car, suffering a broken back and fractured skull. On one of his earliest solo climbs in Scotland, he failed to jump a crevasse, but was luclQf enough to land on a small snow bridge below, surviving with only broken ribs. Climbing the highest mountain in the British Isles, Ben Nevis in Scotland, several years later, he and a group of climbers were trapped in a vicious snowstorm in the dark. Roped to the others. Lamb searched for a mountain hut that turned out to be buried in snow. “What we thought was a rock turned out to be the chimney and there was heat coming out,” he recalls. “We tunneled in and crashed in on another group. We almost bought the farm that day.” A horrific motorcycle crash in 1963 that ruptured his spleen required major surgery and 20 weeks in the hospital. Doctors took a kidney and part of his stomach and almost amputated both arms from the elbows Kayaking is one of the sports that Green Oak Township's Pete Lamb enjoys. He built this kayak himself. down. Lamb says his daughter, Susan Aikins of Ann AJbor, has been nagging him to create a will. He still does ice climbing every winter off the northern shores of Lake Superior. “She says someday she’s going to get a call that they’ve found me frozen somewhere. I’m an old adrenaline junkie,” Lamb says. He’s most proud of hiking the John Muir 'lY^, a 211-mile jaunt that took 24 days last summer, finishing at the top of Mount Whitney, the highest peak in the continental United States. Karen Kish, a SOLAR member fi’om Oxford, says Lamb slept on the ground in a lean-to tent and was skilled at Icxating trails. “You forget how old he is at times,” she says. At home. Lamb regularly bikes through the Island Lake Recreation Area and paddles local lakes and the Huron River with two wooden kayaks he’s made. He’s working on a third in his basement, an Inuit (Eskimo) kayak with soft shell strung around a wood frame. His easy-going personality and stoiy-telling ability help Lamb make friends wherever he goes. “He’s just a really fun guy to be around,” Kish says. “He is open and ready for anything.” Jason Deegan can be reached at jdeegan@ livingstoncommunitynews.com or at810-844-2012. SO U T H LYON FROM C l Even co-op coaches say experience has been positive and athletes from South Lyon. South Lyon East boys tennis coach Matt Admiraal, a former assistant at South Lyon, had just four players the first week of practice before registration day turned up seven more. Sophomore Chris Kyanka played third singles at South Lyon in the spring, giving Admiraal an anchor to build around. “It will take some years. It will not happen overnight,” Admiraal says of building a quality program. “First, we’ll worry about numbers (of athletes) before wins.” New East football coach Todd Pennycuff says his program is “on track” with 21 sophomores and 26 freshman. The Cougars were competitive in their first game, losing to Lakeland, 12-8. Sophomore lineman Brock Thompson and sophomore running back-linebacker Victor Lopez have been voted captains. “Our definition of success is, are we improving?” Pennycuff says. Pennycuff, the former offensive coordinator at South Lyon who teaches in Novi, says he runs practices with a varsity pace to prepare for next fall. “We are teaching the kids how to work together as a team and how to work through adversity,” he says. “We will be in a situation next year where we play schools four and five times our size.” Volleyball coach Lisa Reiter, who teaches in Macomb County, understands the building process more than most. She launched the program at Rochester Stony Creek five years ago. She has smaller numbers, eight freshmen and six sophomores, than she thought would try out. Sophomores Jenna Bedich, Courtney Emery, Amanda Bertera and Katelyn Grunewald are her future core. “We’ve done really well with what we have,” Reiter says. “I’d rather be small and powerful and dedicated than large and half-way into it.” Boys soccer coach Stuart Collis, a lawyer who lives in Ypsilanti, has 10 sophomores and seven freshman in his program. He says the small problems encountered creating a program are overshadowed by the excitement for the future. His soccer nets didn’t arrive until two days before the first game. “It is really exciting to build a program from the ground up,” he says. “Every day, there is new tradition, a new aspect that wasn’t developed before.” He’s been pleased with the progress on the field, too. “We’re playing our hearts out,” he says. “We are surprising people. No one thought we’d be this good this fast. We are not great, but we are improving.” Even the co-op coaches say the experience has been a positive one. In individual sports like cross country and golf, the Cougars who are good enough can compete as varsity athletes at post-season events in Division 3. “It has been a really nice dynamic with the two teams,” says South Lyon boys cross country coach Scott Smith, who has nine Cougars and 33 Lions on his roster. “The East kids are benefiting being able to train with the more experienced athletes. The kids are enjoying each other’s company. We function with two teams as one.” R E C R E A T I O N C A L E N D A R RECREATION EVENTS ■ Jump rope clinic - T h e J um p in A ll-s ta rs are h o s tin g g ra n d n a tio n a l c h am p io n Kim B ra dsh aw a n d jum p e r s fro m six o th e r c lu b s to h o s t a c am p 9 a.m.-3 p.m. O c t. 27 a t th e o ld H a rtla n d H ig h S ch o o l, 9 52 5 H ig h la n d Road, H a rtla n d .

It has been dying out the past couple of years. We have been trying to reinvent it.” The contest will consist of three flights (beginner, intermediate and advanced) of competition, starting at 10 a.m. Before each flight, Dyrdek will warm up with the competitors.

He did his research and discovered that a new gas furnace and air conditioner retrofitted to his forced-air system would cost $9,000. \ ^ e n he saw the Geothermal Specialties ad for a type of heat-pump, home-heating and -cooling system that uses hydro chlorofluorocarbon refiigerant, trademarked as Freon, instead of anti-freeze-treated water, Cybart cedled owner Don Gyde for an update. “I was interested,” Cybart said. “I didn’t know too much until I talked to Don about it. I liked what he had to say and we ended up getting it. I’m very happy with it. We installed last November and I’ve gone through a winter and a summer with it. I like the efficiency - it’s quite and nonpolluting. “I don’t have to buy oil or gas to run it. Last winter it cost me around $360 to heat the house the entire winter. I’m totally happy with it. I’ve never had the house as comfortable. It’s fantastic. I can’t say enough about it. I recommend it to everybody I know.” The refrigerant-based system that Gyde installed for Cybart is manufactured by ECR Technologies in Lakeland, Fla. Before opening Geothermal Specialties in 2005, Gyde installed large, heat-pump systems in commercial applications. He is a master plumber and licensed mechanical contractor who has been working in HVAC since 1976. When he built his Fowlerville home in 2000, Gyde wanted a low-maintenance, closed-loop geothermal system. His discovered ECR Technologies’ refrigerant system for residential use. “I put it in my own house and it works really well,” Gyde said. “This is what heating and cooling is going to go to. Fossil fuel is at the limit.” The cost of a typical residential system runs $10,000- $17,000, Gyde said. The state offers a $400 tax credit and energy companies provide a separate meter and lower rate for geothermal home heating and cooling. The companies also allow a standard water heater to be metered at the geothermal rate. The ECR system uses a technology that was developed in the 1980s for commercial use. In an average residential application, Gyde instahs 1,250 feet of one-halfinch copper tubing that has been leak tested with highpressure nitrogen. He lays the tubing in five, four-footwide, 125-feet-long, five foot deep trenches. The tubing is connected and two lines are run into the home where they are connected to a compressor that nms off electricity. The amount of heat or cooling energy produced by the system is equal to four times the amount of energy used to run the compressor, according to Gyde. Russ Fox of Signal Systems Industries Inc. in Howell installs the more traditional water-based, heat-pump systems manufactured by Econar Energy Systems, Mammoth, and Florida Heat Colleen C a rr Realtor® COLDlUeU. B A N K e R Q Brighton Town & Country Real Estate 102 E. Grand River Brighton, MI 48116 (810) 227-1111 Office (810) 333-1111 Cell Pump. He is certified by the International Ground Source Heat Pump Association, OR IGSHPA, to train contractors in the proper installation of geothermal systems and is also a geo-exchange designer accredited by IGSHPA through the Association of Energy Engineers. Fox is a master electrician and a mechanical contractor who has been in the HVAC business for 40 years and has been installing water-based geothermal systems for 25 years. Fox said the majority of geothermal systems being used 30 years ago were open loop systems that used well water for the heat-exchange process. Difficulties with loss of efficiency due to corrosion, and potential lack of sufficient well-water led, by 1990, to development of the closed-loop, water-based system in highdensity, polyethylene pipe with an anti-freeze additive such as propylene glycol. Fox said his systems run in the $ll,000-$20,000 range. “We like to think that everyone can afford it,” Fox said. “Even in low-income housing, many are going with geo-thermal because of predictable low-operation costs Kevin Reilly of Ubuild It in Brighton said many of the homeowners that his company helps to be general contractors of their homes view the additional cost of a geothermal heating and cooling installation as a good investment because they intend to stay in their homes. “Are you going to pay an extra $100 on your mortgage, or on your utility bill?” Reilly said. “I do think geothermal will become the standard in the future, just like fuel-cell vehicles. People are moving away from petroleum. People are seeing the value. The demand will drive down the cost. Maybe 10-15 years from now, geothermal be standard.” In the meantime, Bruce Cybart in Fowlerville will be enjoying his low energy bills. “I’m just about completely ‘green’,” Cybart said. “When I put in a windmill. I’ll be just about totally efficient. I can get off the grid.” Cybart can get help with that project from Brion Dickens at Woodland Wind, LLC in Pigeon, Mich. Dickens is a dealer-installer of small wind turbines for homes, businesses and schools manufactured by Bergey Windpower of Norman, Okla. Cybart said a 10- kilowatt turbine completely installed costs $40,000. He added that research done by Michigan State University indicates that turbines do not depreciate heavily; a used wind turbine may be unbolted and sold at a good portion of its original cost. The Michigan Public Service Commission provides guidelines by which turbine owners may sell excess energy back to the utility companies. This net metering process is currently under evaluation to make it more beneficial to wind generating homesteads. Dickens lives in Huron County in Michigan’s thumb, where John Deere Credit USA is developing Michigan’s first multi-megawatt wind farm in the state of Michigan that is planned to go online this year. Michigan ranks No. 14 in the country in wind-energy potential but is currently generating only 3 megawatts of wind energy. California, at No. 17 in potential is generating 2,700 megawatts of wind energy. “Wind is not new to the world, it is only new to Michigan,” Dickens said. “We’re trying to play catch-up and I tliink we’U succeed.” FREE WOOD C H IP S W e C u t Y o u r T r e e s * • Lot Clearing Year Round Service Trimming/Topping Over 23 years in Livingston County Stump Grinding with Tree Removal Maximum value up to 26‘ stump, $150 valuel Livingston County Area only Must Present ad. carr66coll @ yahoo.com 2146693-01 S E R V I C E 8 - 3 8 2 S • H E A V Y E Q U I P M E N T *Free to Dennis Tree Customers at time of service water.

That’s the mantra of Brighton resident, Deborah Gowan. Gowan is an information technology manager for the University of Michigan by vocation and an owner-moderator of Livingston County Freecycle by avocation. “I’m passionate about recycling,” Gowan said. “I have two little kids and the thought of them being hip deep in garbage by the time they are grown up is upsetting to me.” As a FVeecycle moderator, Gowan spends five hours a week facilitating an Internet group that offers items free to members. Anyone can join to offer items, request needed items, or take items on offer. The Livingston County group has been active since March 2004 and currently has 4,200 people on the list.

In one hand is her 10-monthold son, in the other a tape measure. Her two young daughters trail behind her like ducklings. She zeroes in on a used 48-by- 17-inch kitchen cabinet. It needs some work. She plans to fix it up, refinish it and put it in her dining room. The price is $50. She gets it for $30. “It’s much cheaper and good-quality stuff,” she says of the store’s products, extolling the benefits of buying used rather than going to the large home stores. “I come here all the time.” In a disposable society, where new is often equated with better, where big-box stores have become the temple of home improvers, a growing number of 'homeowners are turning to reclaimed or reused products. In the past five years, the number of reused-material stores around the country has doubled, from 150 to 300, according to the Building Materials Reuse Association. Driven by economics, environmental concerns, aesthetics or old-fashioned quality - or all the above - do-it-yourself homeowners, as well as contractors, handymen and landlords, are buying construction products at a fraction of the retail cost - such things as marble countertops, cast-iron radiators, sunken bathtubs, toilets, sinks and solid five-panel pine doors. Some come from homes built more than a century ago, some from new-home construction sites. “Most people are proud of themselves for recycling cans and recycling newspaper and buying bags that are made out of recycled plastic, but people don’t realize that they can recycle entire houses and that they can buy recycled products for their homes,” said Ruthie Mundell, outreach director for Forklift, which opened in November 2005. “When we first started, we had probably five customers a day. Now we probably have 150 sales a day,” she said “People are finding out about the concept. They realize how much it makes sense financially and environmentally.” Nonprofit organizations get all or most of their products from donations, many of which come from homes that have been tom down or “deconstructed” instead of being demolished by bulldozers and wrecking balls. “I would say about 85 percent is donated,” said Desiree Carter, general manager of the Loading Dock. In addition, “We get some materials from landfills” and buy some fixim places going out of business. Often, about 80 percent of a disassembled home can be salvaged or recycled, experts say. In that case, donating the • materials is a boon for everyone, recycling advocates say. Homeowners get a tax writeoff by donating the disassembled materials and save on trash fees at the landfill. The environment benefits, as do the people who bought the products. “Some homeowners can’t stand good material - hardwood floors, kitchen cabinets, and on and on - just being dumped in a landfill,” said Paul Hughes, president of DeConstruction Services of Fairfax, Va., which tears apart homes and donates the materials to nonprofit organizations. “Many builders are starting to feel the same way.” United Way Livingston County United Way year.

Armed with the proper equipment and a dose of good advice from local experts, most homeowners can tackle this job and other simple ones on their own. “Painting and staining are easy enough to correct if you make a mistake,” says Dave Lapshan, owner of Artisan Home Services in Brighton. “But it depends on the comfort level of the homeowner. It’s always more expensive to fix something done poorly than to do it right in the f e t place.” Real estate agent Deborah Harrison of Heritage GMAC Real Estate in Howell says the simplest ways homeowners can improve their homes is through painting, landscaping, and updating lighting and plumbing fixtures. These are projects that can be done with minimal professional help, if you have the time and resources. Harrison would know. She and her family purchased their brick ranch in Marion Township six years ago. The home had seen better days and Harrison was determined to bring beauty back to her new property. She bought materials and planned the renovations, but soon realized the plans she had were beyond her scope of experience. She hired a contractor, getting bids and negotiating to get the best quality for her budget. That’s how Tony Weems, Howell resident and licensed builder, acquires much of his work. Weems owns Do-it-AU Construction and Landscaping. “People start a job on their house and then they find out that it’s a lot of work,” he says. “They want to do it themselves, and they have good ideas, but it takes time, knowledge and money. And you have to have the right tools. There’s plenty of stuff a homeowner can do on their own, but if you’re not a carpenter, stay out of the kitchen.” Lapshan, Harrison, and Weems agree; Painting is a great DIY starting point. A coat of paint can give a tired room new life, and the outside of a home fresh curb appeal. It can even sefi the house. When clients consult Harrison about updates, she tells them to repaint, go with hardwood or tongue-and-groove laminate floors, and replace hardware on kitchen cabinets. These, she says, are simple DIY fixes. Harrison plans on learning the complete trade of staging, which is what a homeowner does to a house to make it look polished and clean. It involves using furniture and accessories in a home to make it appeal to as many buyers as possible. Cari Pilon is a professional home stager who serves Livingston and Washtenaw Counties. Her Brighton-based business, Smart Stagers, helps clients pick out the right colors, furniture and accessories. She recommends buying paint by the quart and putting it on poster board to make a sample. “You might really like the way a color looks on your walls during the day when natural light comes in through your windows, but then hate it at night. The painted poster board allows you to move that color around your house to see how it will look in different lights,” she says. Pilon also advises clients to chose warm neutral colors. “Neutrals aren’t beige anymore,” she says. “Nobody likes beige. I recommend sage green because it goes with blue, burgundy and a whole host of other colors. A good warm caramel color works too. There is a common color that shows up in every room of your house. Use that as your inspiration.” Smart Stagers consults with homeowners who are looking for validation. Pilon tells them to accessorize with affordable small items that can be changed with the season. She also supports “re-purposing” items, such as dressers and tables that can be refinished. “This is an easy do-it-yourself project,” she says, “and it keeps it out of the landMs!” V O L U N T E E R S Each week The Livingston Community News publishes a list of volunteers needed for local charitable organizations, and other groups in need of assistance in our Livingston Life_ section.

BY ST E PH EN IE KOEHN News Sp e c ia l W riter Let’s talk leaves. The autumn leaves, drifting lazily by your window now; the autumn leaves of red and gold that will soon be dropping from the trees in bushels, dominating your landscape in their multicolored splendor. W here do they go and how can we get rid of them before the snow flies? The answer depends, to some extent, upon where you live. One Brighton resident, who prefers to remain anonymous for obvious reasons, said she just waits for a good stiff wind to blow her leaves onto her neighbors’ yards. It’s one answer, but there are other approaches. If you live in Brighton, for instance, you may bag your leaves for scheduled pickups by the city’s trash hauler, Waste Management. JAM IE CH A R B EN E AU -P I5 E L LA .TH E LIVINGSTON CO M M U N IT Y N EWS Materials for composting are loaded into a shredder at Tuthill Farms & Composting in Green Oak Township. One good way for homeowners to dispose of the annual blanket of leaves on their yards is to compost, either at a facility such as Tuthill Farms, or in a backyard compost. A first step in either operation is to reduce the size of the particles by shredding so they will more easily be broken down. Or schedule an appointment with the city’s leaf-vacuuming service. For details, call the city’s Department of Public Services at 810-225-8001. In the Howell (as detailed on the Web site www.cityofhowell. org), residents are encouraged to bag their leaves for pick up Mondays with the city’s normal yard waste program. Each household is entitled to 10 free bags, available at the Recreation Center. No plastic bags will be accepted for leaves. These city solutions are environmentally friendly because the leaves collected by Waste Management and other municipal trash haulers are generally taken to an area composting facility, such as "Ilithill Farms and Composting in Green Oak Township and Johnston Farms and Composting in Deerfield Township, to be composted and used as natural soil enhancements. Both the Hithills and Johnstons use most of the compost they make in their own farming operations, but any extra may be purchased by the public. 'Tuthill Farms charge $1 per container for “as much as you can lift,” said Sandra Tuthill. “Compost is a wonderful organic mixture that complements any soil and enriches any project in the garden,” said Maria Johnston, of Johnston Farms. Out in the more rural reaches of the county, where yards may be larger and trees more abundant, composting also is an option, but it may not be feasible to bag it for pick up. In that case, rake or blow the leaves into piles and add to your compost pile or use as mulch or top dressing, Johnston said. “Leaf mulch can be used in place of wood mulch, with the same benefits,” she said.

And be sure they’re dry before you do it, otherwise, they’ll be too bendy and leathery to chop. “Another option is to throw them on the vegetable garden at the end of the season and run over the whole mess with a lawnmower and then turn it over. If you have a lawnmower, you won’t need a lot of extra, expensive equipment to compost.” Don’t bother buying “starte r” for your compost; It’s not worth the money,” Voyle said. “The best starter is soil, right from your yard,” she said. “It has all the organisms you need to get going.” Compost containers need not be fancy, Voyle said. An old plastic Idds’ swimming pool, with the bottom cut out will work. Or tie four wooden pallets together at the corners. Or use farm fencing and form a cylinder, using chain snaps (available at any hardware store) to close the wire. Or don’t bother with a container. “A pile is OK, too,” Voyle said. The trick is to use a mix of green (plant material, which can include vegetable scraps from the kitchen) and brown (leaO yard waste, mix it with some soil, keep it moist and turn it occasionally. Using that basic method, you can turn waste into rich compost within a year, possibly in as little as four months. Dividing flowers easier said than done BY ROXANNE WASHINGTON Newhouse News Service As the growing season winds down, many gardeners go from basking in the bounty of their perennials to wondering what to do with everything squeezed together in the yard. Thick bunches of perennials are pretty to look at, but when they grow out of control, fighting for nutrients in the soil, the crowding can be deadly. But dividing can be easier said than done, especially for novice gardeners. “When people divide flowers for the firet time, they’re afraid they’re going to hurt the roots,” says Debbie MacRae, perennials manager at Plant Grafters Garden Center in Westlake, Ohio. Perennial roots are much tougher than they appear, says MacRae. The best time to divide is in spring, before the flowers begin to bloom, or in the fall, once the flowers are dormant. If you are thinking of doing it now, the timing is vital: A newly divided and replanted perennial needs six to eight weeks before the ground freezes for the roots to become established. Do not divide on a hot, sunny day, MacRae warns. Instead, wait for a cool, cloudy day, especially if rain is forecast^. 'To divide plants, you can remove the entire plant from the ground, replant one of the divisions where it was, and plant the other in a different spot. Or, you can dig up half of the plant from the ground and replant it elsewhere. Just make sure to cover all the roots. F ra n d n e Kanalos Realtor® COLDUieU.

We don’t realize how much we have to offer until we open our hearts and try it.” The Katos’ foster family includes Prudence, 20, a recent high school graduate who now lives in Lansing with Paul Kato’s family and attends Lansing Community College, as well as Eden, 11, and Ruth, 9 Gwen Kato, left, carries mums and asters that are being sold as a fundraiser for her daughter Celete's senior service project to raise money to ship books and supplies to a school in Kenya.

Work is scheduled to be completed by the end of October. County has many flawed bridges Several are closed, more have weight restrictions BY TOM TOLEN News S ta ff Reporter Last week the Livingston County Road Commission closed the Jewell Road Bridge to heavy truck traffic, the second Marion Township bridge in the last three months to be closed, or have severe weight restrictions imposed, due to structural weaknesses. But county road officials say those may just be the tip of the iceberg when it comes to “The Bad Bridges of Livingston County.” In addition to those two bridges, there are 14 others that are “structurally deficient” according to Road Commission Managing Director Mike Craine. Flirther, 27 county bridges out of a total of 89 already have weight or other restrictions placed on them. Each municipality may apply to the state for funding for up to five bridge projects annuaily. Leading the list this year for Livingston County was the bridge on Grand River Avenue over the Red Cedar River west of Fowlerville in Handy Township. “It involves the longest detour (14 miles), has the lowest rating of any major county bridge, carries 7,000 cars per day and is the alternate route when they close the interstate (1-96),” Craine said.

At right, inset, Mobley grouts the project. Larry Mobley in demand for projects around the country BY LAURIE HUMPHREY News Staff Reporter Larry Mobley is building a bridge, piece by piece, between old and new. It’s a mission that blends his passion for historic preservation, his love of art and his need to make a living. “All too often, Americans find it easier to tear something down, and in the process, we’re losing a lot of history,” he said, explaining his interest in preservation efforts. With more than 10 tile preservation projects under his tool belt, one job in particular found him handling $800,000 in irreplaceable tile extracted fi-om a St. Louis home, intended for the St. Louis Art Museum. The fireplace tiles of potter Frederick Hurton Rhead, circa 1908, were recovered from a St. Louis house following the house’s sale. With “only three known (Heard) fireplaces” in existence, Mobley was brought in by museum staff to delicately remove the tiles and re-install them at the museum, complementing the display of Rhead’s pots, which the St. Louis Museum already had in its collection. “There is a little anxiety working with the old tiles,” he admitted. Never knowing what he is getting into until he gets there, Mobley said, “I usually just start.” Mobley is a self-taught tile installer who began working in his field “30 some years ago” when he owned a stone, ceramic tile and fireplace store in Howell. “We realized the installer working for us SEE MOBLEY, A4 Larry M obley ■ A ge : 63. ■ Family: Karen, wife of 42 years; children Tammy, Lori, Bonnie, Tim and Kristie; seven grandchildren with one on the way. ■ R esidence; Cohoctah Township, for 32 years. ■ In free time: Travels around the country. ■ H obb ies: Reading "This Old House" and arts and crafts publications; a new business that features engraved stones. ■ His work: His creations feature Native American and Mayan influences. ■ A nticip ated occupation: Dentistry.

Jennifer Granholm has forfeited all believability in Michigan’s “budget debate,” as her words about the budget already being cut to the bone have been bogus. In 2003, 2005 and 2007 our state courts examined themselves and reported that certain judgeships needed to be shut down ... read: save big taxpayer dollars. Instead, the governor refused to save tax dollars as advised and appointed 13 new judges to the 13 courtrooms on the thrice-examined shutdown list. That means Granholm did not “cut to the bone” and she has wasted $5.9 million in taxpayer- paid judges’ salaries and will waste another $2.04 million in 2008. These structural changes that should have been done since 2003 are real, and shame on the governor for spending Michigan into red ink on these 13 instances of pork. Jay R. Drick, Howell Parents should get kids to eat better As we marked the sixth anniversary of the terrorist attacks on the United States, a much larger threat to our nation has reared its ugly head. Researchers at Atlanta’s Morehouse School of Medicine have just reported a rising rate of high blood pressure among America’s children. Based on surveys of nearly 30,000 children aged 8 to 17 by the National Center for Health Statistics, the report was published in the Sept. 25 issue of the American Heart Association journal Circulation. M ore than 400,000 American children are developing high blood pressure, a chronic precursor to heart attack and stroke that has traditionally afflicted only adults. The leading cause is the childhood obesity epidemic brought on by a diet grounded in sugary foods and drinks and fat-laden meat and dairy products. According to the U.S. Department of Agriculture, 90 percent of children consume excessive amounts of fat and only 15 percent eat the minimum daily recommended servings of fruits and vegetables. It’s no wonder that most children are overweight and one in six are obese. Childhood dietary habits become lifelong addictions. Parents should insist that children consume more whole grains, legumes, vegetables, and fresh fruits. They should work with their Parent Teacher Organizations to demand healthy meals, snacks, and vending machine items in schools. Helpful resources are provided at www.choiceusa. net.

BY LISA CAROLIN News S ta ff Reporter Livingston County Circuit Judge Stanley J. Latreille ruled Monday that noise from the shooting range at the Island Lake State Recreation Area does not constitute a nuisance under Michigan law and does not violate Green Oak Township’s general noise ordinance. The ruling ends a threeyear court battle and means the gun range is exempt from litigation by Michigan’s Sport Shooting Ranges Act. The complaints against the shooting range began after the Michigan Department of Natural Resources added a skeet, trap and sporting clay range in 2002. In June 2004, Green Oak Township, where the range is located, filed suit against the DNR and Michigan Shooting Centers, which operates the range, saying it violated the township’s noise ordinance. The township had approved the range in 1998 as a special use, provided noise levels would comply with Green Oak Township ordinances. “I am disappointed by the ruling,” said Green Oak Township Supervisor Mark St. Charles. “The township board will decide whether or not to appeal at our Oct. 3 meeting in an executive session.” St. Charles said he has heard from several township residents who are upset with the ruling. Jenness Wiegand, a plaintiff in the case who helped form Citizens for a Quiet Community in 2004, said she also is disappointed. “It’s very unfortunate that the state can bring in a shooting range and blast away and not consider our properties,” she said. “They have not worked very well with us at all. They say we don’t have a problem. We live here. There is a problem with noise.” Wiegand said she has not yet decided whether to appeal Latreille’s ruling. Last year, DNR spokeswoman Mary Dettloff said the state had installed straw bales at the shooting stations and constructed sheds for shooters to mitigate the sound, but Wiegand and other opponents of the shooting range said the efforts did not help.

Howell Public Schools Operations Director Mike Peterson gave a report Monday on the transportation program, and efforts to shorten school bus rides for children, to the Board of Education. “Having additional (buses) and drivers would certainly help - it speeds up the process,” Peterson said. Parents have been upset since the start of the school year because of bus rides that have been longer than in past years, caused in part by the opening of Parker High School campus on the south side of the district, in place of the more centrally located Howell High School, which is being renovated. During the public comments portion of the meeting, parent Pat Howie blamed Peterson for her son’s one-hour-and-twentyfive- minute ride. “They have 60-70 kids on the bus for over an hour; that is unacceptable,” Howie said, threatening to start a petition drive to have Peterson removed from his position. A parent also said that in light of the sexual assault incident on a school bus last May, the longer a bus ride is the greater the chances are that an incident like that will happen. Peterson told the board that he has made a number of changes to lessen the ride times for students on longer routes. “We have made some improvements, we still have some tightening to do, but don’t think we will be where we were last year,” he said. Time-crunching measures taken by the transportation department include eliminating some stops “because of more accurate rider lists (since school started),” re-routing buses and using the 1-96 expressway. Peterson also is studying consolidating bus runs and will look at a possible arrangement with Livingston Essential Thansportation Service whereby LETS would take a limited number of nms in the northern part of the school district, where bus times are the longest. “One thing we haven’t explored is group stops where the buses come to a central location,” Peterson said after the meeting.

City Council OKs cemetery memorial The City Council voted Sept. 20 to allow Michigan M ilit^ Moms Livingston Chapter and the Fallen Heroes Memorial Foundation to erect a memorial at the Brighton Hills Cemetery. Two representatives of the Military Moms asked the city for the use of eight feet of cemetery land for Uie monument. Council members agreed andwent a step further, saying the city would pay for the cost of the base as its contribution. The monument is part of the “Lest They Be Forgotten” initiative.

Fowlerville Village joins traffic group The Fowlerville Village Coimcil has voted to become a member of the nonprofit 'ITaffic Improvement Association headquartered in Oakland County. The yearly membership allows the village to draw on the services of the association for traffic engineering, studies, and data in order to reduce congestion and accidents. The annual fee is based on village road funds from the state of Michigan. TIA charges 1 percent of this income, or $1,900 this year in Fowlerville.

Rotary member Craig Curtis said he expects the new signs to be up by next month. This is the thirtl time the Rotary has paid for welcome signs for the village. 'Two of the decadeold signs at entrances have been missing because of road building and a traffic crash. The $2,000 project is being handled by Mike Powers of Signature Signs in Fowlerville. The project was approved by the Village Council with council members Mike Stock and Marjorie Carlon dissenting because there was no council input. Hamburg Township Officials shift work, lay off zoning clerk Livingston Coimty’s building slowdown is finally being felt in its largest and one-time fastest growing township. At its Sept. 18 meeting, the Hamburg 'Ibwnship Board of TVustees voted to temporarily reallocate half of Zoning Inspector Don Burtraw’s 40-hour work week to the assessing department. The board also laid off Denise Lorge, a parttime zoning department clerk. Board members also gave Supervisor Cindy Pine the authority to research other ways the township could effectively perform zoning department duties, such as the possible outsourcing of services. Consultants hired for job reviews Hamburg 'Township is hiring professional consultants to help it review employee requests for job reclassifications and related salary changes. The township’s Board of 'Rmstees on Sept. 18 approved using Rahmberg, Stover & Associates to review these requests and make recommendations. Officials also hired this group in 2005 for a $15,000 compensation study prompted by employee concerns of pay inequities. “As we heard from people about continuing problems in the township, we knew we needed professional help again,” said Supervisor Cindy Pine. Under a board-approved salary grade reclassification proc^ure, employees will take their pay concerns to their department heads, who will take them to Pine, Clerk Joanna Hardesty or 'Iheasurer Roberta Balon-Vaughn to be discussed with the township’s personnel committee. The personnel committee can submit the request to the consultant for a recommendation that will go before the township board or it can deny the request. If the request is denied, employees can appeal to the township board. “By using the consultant, this be done objectively and without a personal agenda,” Balon-Vaughn said. “I think that’s more acceptable to everyone.” The board also contracted with Blender Consulting Group to provide data collection, including employee interviews and surveys, and offer professional advice regarding continuing human resources issues.

From News staff reports i 1 T H E L IV IN G S T O N C O M M U N IT Y N EW S FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 2 8 , 2 0 0 7 A 3 ‘ S e x a s s a u l t c h a r g e s s t i r a n g e r ' a t s c h o o l s • V i c t im ' s f a t h e r c r i t i c i z e s r e s p o n s e b y H o w e l l o f f i c i a l s a t f o r u m BY TOM TOLEN News S ta ff Reporter Parents vented their anger and school board tru stees vowed to straighten out the mess during an emotional public forum Monday night, called after two young boys - ages 9 and 11 - were charged with sexually assaulting a 7-year-old on a k Howell school bus. The incident came to light recently after the suspects appeared in juvenile court. But police have been investigating the incident since May when it was reported to Southwest Elementary School Principal Jill Hilla, who called police. But apparently the information was not reported to Superintendent Chuck Breiner or the school board. One of the two boys has been suspended from school and the other is “voluntarily out of school pending the outcome of the prosecutorial process,” said Deputy Superintendent for Labor Relations and Personnel Lynn Parrish. The two boys face criminal sexual conduct charges in juvenile court. The victim is receiving psychological counseling, but has been scarred by the incident, his father said. The boy’s father vented his anger and frustration, saying the other boys involved should have been immediately expelled from school. “This is something that is going to stick with my child until the day he dies,” he told the school board. “I feel somebody dropped the ball,” the father said, saying the Southwest principal should be fired. “You are trying to cover up something.” Others in the audience later came to Hilla’s defense, and some wore T-shirts expressing support. The father also chastised the board for its lack of knowledge about the incident until last week. “If, (for instance), it’s a kid with a knife, the board is supposed to know about it,” he said. L The incident was the lat- ^ est in a series of episodes that have created unwanted headlines for the school district in the last couple of ^ years. First it was the placement of a Diversity Club flag at Howell High School, ^ which some perceived as promoting homosexuality. Then the Livingston Organization for Values in Education also attempted to have several books banned because of violent or sexual content. More recently there has been controversy over the decision to privatize custodial services, putting 38 custodians out of work, and over bus rides that can take nearly two hours for some students. “I am concerned that we as a district are always involved in controversy, and I implore you as a board to find solutions,” said parent Lori Mazzullo. “In my view, this is greater than a Howell school problem, it’s a microcosm of our society,” said Merrill Lundgren of Brighton, a man who works with school children to build their selfesteem. “Don’t let your investigation stop with this incident,” urged Vicki Fyke, founder of the LOVE group. “Older kids have problems with bullying and teasing, and you’ve got to go across the board,” she said. Board members also weighed in on the bus incident. “I’d like to protect every child, and sometimes we can’t do this,” said board Secretary Sue Drazik. “We are going to get to the bottom of this, and this is something we can’t do overnight.” 'Trustee Wendy Day said the board has lost the trust and confidence of the public that it once had. “We have a huge responsibility to regain that trust,” Day said. “I believe the board is committed to restoring that (level of public confidence),” said board 'Treasurer Ed Literski. Breiner said the district has retained the services of its law firm to investigate an apparent communications breakdown. Attorneys will be interviewing seven district employees, from bus drivers to administrators, to find out what really happened, Breiner said. A new policy instituted by the district Monday requires school bus passengers to shift toward the front as the bus empties. Some in the packed audience at the Howell Freshman Campus auditorium suggested the district allow parent volunteers ride on the buses to monitor students. After the meeting, Breiner said he heard many messages from residents at the forum.’T heard anger, fi’ustration, a demand for change, a concern for the safety and welfare of children and, not least, the pain of the victim’s parent,” he said.

Coulter, who is being paid $30,000 by Cleary University for the appearance, will speak to 450 guests at the school’s newly opened Johnson Center at a luncheon. Her latest book, “If Democrats Had Any Brains, They’d Be Republicans,” is being released Tuesday. That evening, Jonathan Cohn, author of the book “Sick,” which addresses the health care crisis in America, and a senior editor at The New Republic, will make a free appearance at The Opera House In Howell. A group of concerned citizens got together bring in Cohn to counter Coulter’s appearance. The group includes Voter’s Voice, a group of moderate Democrats, Republicans and Independents, and the Community Unitarian Universalists of Brighton. “We were appalled that the Livingston Economic Club would actually pay this woman $30,000 to come and speak,” says Marilyn Hysen, a member of Voter’s Voice. “We’re totally in favor of free speech, but she is so hateful. “We felt it was inappropriate, especially because Livingston County fights this ultraconservative image.” Hysen says when Cohn was contacted, he offered to come at no charge, although Voter’s Voice and the other groups will ask for donations for what Hysen calls a worthy cause, a children’s free dental clinic in the county that is in the early planning stages. Hysen encourages people to attend Cohn’s appearance. Cleary University President Tom Sullivan, one of the founders of the Livingston Economic Club, has said the university does not necessarily share Coulter’s perspectives and that he expects her speech to stimulate conversation.

Same road but a longer Michigan Ave. Howell council OKs renaming stretch of Pinckney Road BY LAU R IE HUMPHREY News S ta f f R eporter Howell businesses and homeowners north of 1-96 along D-19 (Pinckney Road) will get new addresses as early as next year following a Sept. 24 decision by the Howell City Council. “Now that the street has been turned over to the city, we can name it whatever we want,” said Howell Mayor Geri Moen. For the benefit of people entering Howell from 3 donations made to Brighton schools From News staff reports The Brighton school board accepted three gifts to the district Monday n i^ t. A new scoreboard for the football stadium was given by Brighton Ford, which also will pay for its installation. The cost of the project will be $15,000. The board also approved a $2,100 donation from Michael Smith to his family’s memorial fund. The family of Sally Smith, a media specialist who served at Miller and Hawkins elementary schools, established the fund in her honor to buy equipment and furniture for the media centers at the schools. The third gift was from Kristopher Young, an automotive instructor at Heiuy Ford Community College. He donated up to a dozen Ford engines to Brighton High School’s automotive program. The total value of $20,000-$36,000. These donations come on the heels of an anonymous offer to raise $1 million through donations and matching funds to pay for a new turf on the BHS footbali field. At its Sept. 14 meeting, the school board approved spending $68,000, which is part of the donation, to get the turf project started.

Council members agreed and approved a plan to make it happen. Drivers currently traveling north off 1-96 will see multiple identifying street signs for that thoroughfare that leads traffic into the city and then out to Howell 'Township. You can be on D-19 (Pinckney Road), Michigan Avenue and Oak Grove Road without ever leaving the street, said Moen. “It can be confusing for people coming in fix)m out of town.” The road was, until recently, under the jurisdiction of the Livingston County Road Commission. As part of the ongoing D-19 road improvement and loop road projects that are slated for completion in 2008 and 2009 respectively, the county turned over that section of road to the city. Council members showed unanimous support for the name change, but urged city officials to reach out to businesses and residents who would be affected. Fifteen of the parcels already have a Michigan Avenue address while 17 other parcels have a Pinckney Road address. Council Member Paul Rogers pointed out that businesses would need time to change letterhead. exterior signage and business cards. Changes also will need to be forwarded to telephone directories and the U.S. Postal Service. “The advantage of striking now is that the area will see some redevelopment anyway,” reasoned (Jity Manager Shea Charles about the timing of the plan, which could take up to two years to implement. The current plan calls for a change in the street name, not the individual address numbers. Laurie Humphrey can be reached at ihumphrey® iivingstoncommunitynews.com or 810-844-2003. S om e o n e ?

The impact of heavy traffic over many years on bridges built for far lower traffic volumes, plus natural processes such as rusting, is causing some concern about the county’s bridges, Craine said. In light of the Minnesota bridge disaster in August, Craine said the commission is taking a harder look at the county’s bridges. “We’ve been doing a complete (reassessment),” he said. “It was a giant reminder that these are real people, even though our bridges don’t carry anywhere near the traffic.” Last week’s restrictions on the Jewell Road Bridge over the Red Cedar River further complicate the problem of getting children to and from school, especially since the recent opening of Howell’s Parker High School Campus. Also in that township south of Howell, Norton Road over the South Branch of the Shiawassee River has been closed since June for replacement with a new span. The state Department of TVansportation is handling that project. The new bridge is expected to be completed by the end of October. The closing of the Norton bridge has resulted in longer bus times, and the limited Jewell Road Bridge closure has exacerbated the problem. “It just delays us and forces us (to make further bus route changes),” said Howell Public Schools Director of Operations Mike Peterson. The Marion Township bridge situation may be causing headaches for commuters and longer bus rides for school kids, but the real question is whether other JAM IE CHA R B EN E AU -P IS E L LA.TH E LIVINGSTON C O M M U N IT Y N EW S Jake Cornwell of E.T.

Craine will apply for funding to replace the Jewell Road Bridge next year, but getting the money is questionable because the state has only a limited amount of funds for bridge replacement. In the 10-county region of which Livingston is a part, just $8 million will be available next year. Last year, application was made for replacement of 55 bridges, and only 11, or 20 percent, were funded. Craine said the Road Commission does not have the funds in its budget to replace even one bridge without state help. He pegs the average replacement cost at $750,000 to $1.2 million. The problem with the Jew- Bridge work The Livingston County Road Commission had these five bridges on its list when it applied for state funding this year, which has not yet been acted on by the state. The list is updated annually. ■ Bridge over West Branch of Red Cedar River on Grand River Avenue between Fowlerville and the Ingham County line in Handy Township. Cost: $1.6 million. ■ Hamburg Road Bridge over Huron River near Winans Lake Road in Hamburg Township, major rehabilitation. Cost: $500,000. ■ Layton Road Bridge over East Branch of Red Cedar River at Handy-Howell Township line. Cost: $800,000. ■ Two bridges, over Yellow River Drain on Dean Road and Latson Road, both in Deerfield Township. Costs: $511,000 and $725,000 respectively. ell Road Bridge lies with the deteriorating condition of the load-carrying beams supporting the 73-year old span. “Age and heavy vehicle traffic have taken their toll,” Craine said. Craine said the Road Commission is considering “temporary measures to operate the bridge” for one-lane use only. “Our short-term objective is to increase the beam capacity to that required for school buses,” he said.

FAMILY FROM AI Africa holds special place in family members' hearts through Lutheran Social Services, which arranged for the Katos to take them in. “They called and said, ‘We have two under 10, with bonus: a big sister’ We said, ‘I guess this was meant to be.’” The family has a passion for Africa and its culture. Paul, a teacher in Mason who also is director of coaching for the Brighton Soccer Club, grew up in Nigeria and Kenya. Their daughter, Celete, also has taken a special interest in Africa, doing her senior service project at Culver Academy in Indiana, where she attends high school, to raise money to ship a crate full of computer equipment and books to the Pistis school in Kenya. “This project has really shown me all of the leadership skills that my school has taught about in the past four years,” Celete Kato said. “As a teenager, it has been hard to see how doing one project could make any difference to anyone, but now I see ... that taMng the time to put together this material for students in Kenya will mean more to them than I could imagine.” She said she hopes to visit Kenya someday and see the donated materials used by the African children. Christian Resources International is a Fowlervillebased nonprofit ministry that she is woridng with to accomplish her project. Gwen Kato grew up across the street on the family farm on Mohrle Road and returned to her roots eight years ago with Paul, after living in Kalamazoo. What she discovered was that, despite living in a rural area, it was tough to find locally grown produce. So, she helped to start the Fowlerville Farmers Market, which is Wednesdays from 3 to 8 p.m. in the municipal parking lot downtown. “Health is very important to me. I have a passion for it,” she said.

Now, she just focuses on the family’s raspberry patch, but also carries forward her focus on local food.

He quickly began playing with the materials and realized he enjoyed the labor part of the business more than sales. “It’s therapeutic for me,” said Mobley, 63. He and his wife have since closed the store, and the Cohoctah Township resident focuses on the art of tile installation. In addition to his preservation work, Mobley is proud of his one-of-a-kind designs and installations of tile mosaics that can be used in the kitchen, the shower, the foyer, anywhere. It was his desire for creativity, his drive to stay ahead if the industry, and his appreciation of history that opened the door to historic tile preservation 18 years ago. Today, he is recognized by the Tile Heritage Foundation of California as an authority in the field. “He’s the best,” said Joseph 'Taylor, president of the Tile Heritage Foundation. “He has a record of preservation projects that is second to none ... and he is willing to travel all over the United States.” Mobley’s first tile restoration job in 1999 was arranged through colleagues from California. He was part of a team brought in on a Pennsylvania high school project involving tile removal from 12 drinking fountains inside a building set for demolition. They were asked to remove, clean up and package the tiles for reuse at a new high school. The project has long since been completed, but continues to stand as a source of pride for Mobley, as well as the people who hired him. “The preservation of tiles he did will stand the test of time for another 100 years,” said Mary Jane Koenig, teacher at Erie East High School and chairwoman of the East Archive High School Committee. Her group commissioned Mobley and the others. While he was unable to re-install the fragile tiles just as they had been set in the first school, “he created a similar look and feel,” bridging the buildings for graduates of the demolished school, said Koenig. Preservation efforts have also taken Mobley to Massachusetts, West Virginia and Ohio. A six-week Cleveland project involved the removal of early-1900s Grueby tiles from the floor, the walls and the ceiling. “There is only one other (similar) installation that we know about,” said Mobley, adding that it was not a typical installation of the time. He said the practice occurred when homeowners wanted to “design the whole room as a picture.” Those tiles are intended for museum display courtesy of 'Two Red Roses Foundation, a Florida-based Arts and Crafts preservation movement. Mobley has a fondness for the older tiles he encounters, often preferring them to newer products, but admits it is not always cost effective to remove and reuse. Part of his job in working with antique dealers and museums is trying to determine their worth, both monetary and historical. “As far as prices go, it’s very difficult,” he said. He explained that like any antique, a tile’s monetary worth is only as high as what someone would be willing to pay.

Bielaska, Gladney’s fiance, ^ is a commercial airline pilot ^ who will soon be transferred to California, and both agree that running the shop from 2,500 miles away would be impossible. So, they’ve put the store on the market, but not without great regret. “We’re bumming that my career is making us leave this store,” Bielaska said. “We’re putting our ‘baby’ up for adoption.” “It’s been a lot of fun,” Gladney said. “I will definitely miss it.” Opened in November 2006, in the back half of the former Java Roasters coffee shop space, OnCorps carries high-end, new and previously owned women’s clothing P on consignment, displayed in sophisticated, but warm, surroundings. Gladney and Bielaska wanted to call the store “Encore,” but that name was already registered, so they decided on “OnCorps,” which means “on the body,” in Latin. Clothes are arranged by style and color, rather than size, Gladney says. “That way, you won’t reject something that just might fit you. You’ll at least try it on.” In a stroll through the store one might find clothing and Tammy Gladney, right, and Joe Bielaska, owners o f OnCorps, hope that someo ne will purchase a n d continue to operate their high-end ladies resale apparel shop in d owntown Brighton.

A wide variety of casual to formal wear ranges from dresses and separates, shoes and purses, jewelry and scarves, to belts, jeans, wedding gowns and even furs. Sizes for juniors and misses range from 2 to plus-sizes, Gladney says. “We have something for young teens and career women through mature women’s styles - something for everyone. “We sell a lot of gowns for the Detroit Auto Show Preview event. (Our customers find) you don’t have to spend $5,000 to $8,000 to get a beautiful gown for special events.” Customer Sheryl McIntyre, of Green Oak Township, says she, for one, will really miss the store if it closes. “It would be devastating to the community if someone didn’t buy it,” she said. “In the short time it’s been there, it’s allowed a lot of area residents to buy high-end clothes, right there at our back door, that they would normally have to go to Saks or Nieman Marcus to get. And, they’re affordable, too.” Her idea, from the start, Gladney says, was “not to be a typical resale shop, with racks and racks of goods jammed in together. I wanted it to be a boutique, where you come in and look around at your leisure, maybe talk to me or Joe ... and find a treasure.” This would be an easy business for a new owner to take over, Gladney says. “There’s no inventory; people bring the stock to you.” The store, including racks, lighting, counters and other furnishings, is already set up. The only ongoing expenses are rent and utilities. “We know the town needs this store,” Bielaska says. Even in a wretched Michigan economy, the shop has been successful from its inception. “The first hour after we opened, right after the ribbon- cutting, we sold two mink coats and $700 worth of clothing,” Gladney says. “In this economy, I think consignment is probably the way to go.” Location: 415 W.

Couling said she expects to become a destination shopping experience not only for Brighton area residents but for a growing number of outof- town customers.

Just So! specializes in its own interchangeable jewelry designs using semiprecious stones, sterling silver and gold. The business is known for its Connectables line of earrings and patented clasp, which allows the wearer to mix and match necklace strands, creating personalized jewelry designs that form a part of a completely interchangeable jewelry collection. Couling also has created a line of jewelry findings for do-it-yourself jewelry-makers and headers. In addition to its online shopping site and Brighton boutique, jewelry designs from Just So! are sold nationally through women’s apparel retailer, Barrie Pace (www.barriepace.com) and resort and gallery locations, including The Grand Hotel on Mackinac Island.

Popcorn Works engineers munchies When you get a hankerin’ for some popcorn - and you will - pop into the Popcorn Works in downtown Howell. Opened just more than a month ago by Brighton resident Beth Johnigan, the store is a corn-ucopia of the favorite snack in a variety of flavors. Thirty-four of them, to be exact. “Beth’s grandmother had a store in 'Tally Hall (a Farmington- area shopping center) in the late 1980s,” said Johnigan’s mother, who goes by “Popcorn Patty” and will admit to no other name. “The recipes for caramel corn and cheese corn come from my mother, who is, of course, Beth’s grandmother.” In addition to several types of flavorsome popcorn, the store also carries a line of hand-painted gift tins. Location: 113 E. Grand River Ave., Howell. Hours: Noon-8 p.m. Tuesday- Friday; noon-6 p.m. Saturday and Sunday; closed Monday. Phone: 517-292-5195. Fashion your own purse at Pur-se Soon, area residents will be able to visit Pur-se (pronounce it with a French accent: “per-say) in downtown Howell and create their own one-of-a-kind purses. Owner Carolyn Reed, a Howell resident, plans to open her new store Oct. 11, next door to the Popcorn Works. Customers will be able to select from six purse styles and a potpourri of handles and fabrics, from prints to geometries to textured materials, for a purse that is theirs alone. Reed will have the purse ready in seven to 14 days and customers can opt to pick up their purchases at the store or have them shipped. Reed also carries a line of inspired- and generic purses and jewelry, accessories, hats and “popcorn” shirts that fit all sizes from 2 to 22. She even sells dog purses. Customers can arrange to host “purse parties” in the store. Prices generally range from $25 to $70 for the createyour- own styles. “I have some original bags by Mary Frances, too, that will be priced between $125 and $260,” Reed said. The new store will be Reed’s second purse store in southeast Michigan. She opened her first Pur-se store in Frankenmuth a year ago April, she said. Location: HIE. Grand River Ave., Howell.

For the period of October- December, 27 percent of the companies interviewed plan to hire employees, while 13 percent said they expect to reduce payrolls. Another 60 percent plan to maintain current levels. “Hiring intentions among area employers are more modest than in the third quarter, when 34 percent of the companies interviewed intended to add employees and 10 percent planned to reduce staff levels,” said Manpower Inc. spokesman Tom Bovee. In the coming quarter, job prospects appear brightest in wholesale-retail trade, services and public administration, while employers in the construction trades will reduce staff levels. Hiring in education, nondurable goods manufacturing, transportation-public utilities and finance-insurance-real estate are expected to remain unchanged, Bovee said.

The Tax Increment Financing Plan was previously enacted as a Village Ordinance by the Village Council on April 26, 2004. The Development Area encompasses approximately 95.4 acres in the center of the Village. The Development Area is bounded on the west by the three hundred block of West Main (the development area terminates at 363 and 360 West Main) and on the east end of the Village ending on the South side of M36 at the business complex ending with the address of 1222 East Main and on the North side of M36 ending at 1295 East Main. The northernmost boundary is Hamburg Street, although Putnam Street and the real lot line of businesses fronting Main Street (132 feet back from Main Street) form the largest portion of the northern boundary. The north/south streets of Mill, Mann and the perimeters of the Secondary Business district at the east end of the Village also form contours of the northern boundary. The primary southern boundary is the real lot line of businesses fronting Main Street. The southern boundary of the Secondary Business District also forms the southern Development Area boundary, and the north/south streets of Mill and Dexter form contours of the southern boundary. Michigan State Highway M- 36 traverses the middle of the Development area from the east to west; this highway is also designated as Main Street. Highway D-19, commonly known as Pinckney Road, intersects with M-36/Main near the middle of the Development area. Mill Pond and its tributary of Honey Creek are located just south of the Development Area; Honey Creek runs along the southeastern boundary. The proposed Amended and Restated Development Plan, the previously enacted Tax Increment Financing Plan, descriptions of both plans, along with maps and plats of the Development Area are available for public inspection during normal business hours at the office of the Village Clerk, 220 South Howell Street, Pinckney, Ml 48169. The hearing will be held in Council Chambers at 220 South Howell Street, Pinckney, Ml 48169. At the hearing, all aspects of the Development Plan will be open for discussion, the Village Council will provide an opportunity for interested persons to be heard and will receive and consider communications in writing with reference to the Plans.

We ask these kinds of questions as we try to make sense of the recent news that a young boy was sexually assaulted on a school bus; that two people were killed by a pack of dogs; that a man was crimin^y charged and banned from a local library for using the facility in a way it was never intended. Monday night, local parents and others packed a meeting in Howell to seek a better understanding of what has been reported as a sexual assault on a school bus. Police reports say the incident occurred in May when a 9-year-old and an 11- year-old boy forced a 7-year-old to perform oral sex. The older boys have been charged with criminal sexual assault. Residents were shocked by the incident itself. They also were surprised to learn about it several months after the fact and to learn that Howell Superintendent Chuck Breiner and the school board only learned of the incident recently. During the Monday forum, residents vented their frustration with a district that always seems to find itself in an unfavorable spotlight. Breiner and school board trustees vowed to sort things out and they have commissioned the district’s law firm to conduct an internal investigation. “I am concerned that we as a district are always involved in controversy, and I implore you as a board to find solutions.” That was how one parent addressed the school board Monday night. “I’d like to protect every child, and sometimes we can’t do this. We are going to get to the bottom of this.” That is how school board Secretary Sue Drazik responded to the concern. One key unresolved issue is who knew what and when regarding this incident. Once the chain of events is clear, it’s imperative that Breiner and the school board take decisive action. Last week we also learned that Hamburg police had arrested a man on misdemeanor charges of lewd behavior while using a computer at the Hamburg Township Library. The bad news is that anyone would think that the pubUc library, a place often considered a comfortable spot for families and children, is the place for this kind of private activity. The good news is that the library staff had been suspicious of this particular patron and was carefully monitoring his activities. Police were called, and he was removed fi'om the building, arrested, charged in court and banned fixim ever using the library again. He harmed no one and officials believe no patrons were aware of his inappropriate actions. It’s almost unthinkable that two county residents were killed by a pack of dogs. But horrible, unthinkable things don’t just happen in faraway places. The investigation continues and criminal charges could be filed against the owners of the dogs, which have been destroyed. This has been a rough couple of weeks in Livingston Coimty. These are awful things to have to deal with. But the communities affected by these incidents are dealing with them. When bad things happen to good communities, good communities find ways to become even better.

The Howell resident packed both auditoriums of the Howell Theater, something that had never happened before, according to theater manager Jeff Fey. “I just wish we’d have charged,” Fey joked with audience members drawn to the free Sept. 20 event. Everybody there came to honor Zemper, a former U.S. Army photographer stationed with the 457th Bomb Group in Glatton, England, fi’om 1943 to 1945. Community leaders, veterans and neighbors alike turned out to preview “WWII: Through the Lens of Duane Zemper,” which provided a local perspective on World War II. The documentary was produced by Donna Ryen of the Public Broadcasting station WFUM-TV in Flint. Zemper, who captured images of routine events for military personnel, including bombings aboard B-17 planes, shared his stories, his thoughts and an array of wartime photos for a 15-minute film transitioning into the PBS special “The War: A Ken Burns Film.” The Bums film focuses on lives touched by World War II. Both pieces aired Sunday on WFUM, Channel 28. “I can’t believe the number of people” who showed up, said Zemper, who was joined that evening by four of his five children and many grandchildren. A few of the men who served with him in the bomb group also attended, including John Wranesh of Ann Arbor. “He was a waist gunner in a B-17 that was shot down on his third mission with the 457th Bomb Group. He and fellow prisoners walked 600 miles as prisoners of war, starting Feb. 6, 1945. He was freed in May 1945,” said Ryen. Zemper, 87, regrets not being able to speak with Wranesh at the event, but said the crowd kept him from moving toward his fellow soldier. “I couldn’t get out of there,” he said, commenting on the many missed opportunities to speak with veterans because the crowd stood shoulder to shoulder after the film’s viewing. Dudley Scott of Howell was one of 42 veterans who attended the event. The former Marine came out of “sheer respect” for “the military man, the person and the photographer.” He also wanted to see images of events that happened on the western side of the war.

Benefits similar to those for people, therapist says BY LISA CAROLIN News S ta f f Reporter Annette Hamilton is living proof that massage therapy can soothe the savage beast. The certified pet massage therapist has been volunteering her time at the Humane Society of Livingston County for the past year as well as teaching pet owners how to massage their dogs. “The benefits for animals from massage are similar to those for people,” says Hamilton. “I teach people how to massage their dogs, but once you learn to do it on dogs, you can use it on cats as well.” The Humane Society recently began offering a canine massage therapy class taught by Hamilton for the purpose of destressing dogs and making them feel better both physically and emotionally. According to the class description, “Massage is a great way to bond with your dog plus massage gets the blood and immune systems moving. This can help all sorts of situations with your dog. A dog having surgery will heal faster with massage. Older dogs benefit from massage with increasing blood supply to the legs and better mobility. Massage can decrease pain levels from injuries or chronic problems.” Hamilton’s Airedale, Pozzie, impelled her to get into the field when he began licking his leg joints. “I started with acupressure and could target specific points,” says Hamilton, who became certified through an organization in Colorado called Tallgrass Animal Acupressure Institute (www.ani- SEE MASSAGE,B3 B2 TH E L IV IN G S T O N C O M M U N IT Y N EW S FRIDAY, SEPT EMB ER 28, 2007 At right, a cowboy hits the dirt in the rodeo'a bull riding competition.

The committee that hosts the annual event at Kevin and Renee MacRitchie’s TMZ Farm in Putnam Township estimates that about 3,000 people attended this year’s event. That’s at least a 30 percent increase &Dm last year, Renee MacRitchie said. “Whatever it was, it all worked, and this is a great payoff to our hard work and to the groups that will benefit from the money raised,” she said. The rodeo supports programs and projects for children and families. This year’s main beneficiary is the Pinckney-Lakeland- Hamburg Service Unit of the Girl Scouts of America, who will use the money to stock a lending library of camping equipment and help troops buy needed supplies. Friends of the Lakelands 'Trail and the Pinckney Youth Revolution Assets Team will also receive funds. The rodeo committee hopes to distribute funds to the groups within the next 30 days, Renee MacRitchie said. The rodeo switched from Saturday to Sunday this year so it didn’t compete with local youth and nearby college sports. The name change from Pinckney Community Rodeo to Helluva Rodeo was done to extend the reach of the event outside of Pinckney and capitalize on the farm’s proximity to the hamlet of Hell.

MASSAGE FROM B1 Dogs at humane society getting massage treatments malaccupressure.com). Hamilton gets referrals from workers at the Humane Society that include dogs with behavioral problems to those with arthritis and separation anxiety. “I have to have the Humane Society veterinarian’s approval for every massage because canine massage therapy has not yet been accepted by the American Veterinary Medical Association as a profession,” says Hamilton. On Thursdays, she visits the Humane Society where two of her regular clients are a 9-yearold beagle named Roscoe and 10-year-old golden retriever named Yeller. Roscoe has spinal issues and was dragging his right hind leg when Hamilton first met him. “His leg is just fine now,” says Hamilton. “He zones out while he’s on the massage table and is so relaxed he’s practically fallen off.” Yeller prefers his massages lying on his back on the floor. “It takes mutual consent to give a dog a massage,” says Hamilton. “Otherwise, they will run away from you.” Hamilton also has a degree in Reiki, a Japanese version of massage, which she uses for dogs with emotional problems by channeling energy to the animal. She says her massage sessions last two to 10 minutes at the Humane Society but that she teaches pet owners that they can last as long as a half hour. She recommends not giving a pet a massage more than once a week because she says that can overwhelm the animal. For more information on pet massage, contact the Humane Society of Livingston County at 517-552-8050. Lisa Carolin can be reached at Icarolin® livingstoncommunitynews.com or at 810-844-2010. ZEMPER FROM B1 Film is running in conjunction with Burns' 'The War' Scott spent most of his time in Iwo Jima in the South Pacific, a world away from Zemper, though the two knew each other before heading off to war. “I was also interested to see what the other branches of service had to put up with. I knew what I had to go through,” said Scott, who served in 1945. Scott’s wife, Edith, and daughter, Connie, also attended. “Zemp has been an icon in this town,” Connie Scott said when asked why she came, “but I also came to honor my dad.” Susan Beardsley, a coworker of Zemper’s from the Howell Library Archives, came to honor her friend, but learned a little about her own father’s overseas experience as well. “It really gave me an insight,” she said. “It was just not something my dad wanted to talk about.” Accompanying Beardsley to the preview was Howell resident Charles W. Bondie. As a member of the 94th Infantry Division, Bondie was captured in the Battle of the Bulge and held prisoner in Germany for three months. “It wasn’t that long, but I lost 60 pounds,” he said. “The Germans were losing ground at that point and couldn’t feed their own troops” much less the prisoners. The night was filled with laughter, tears, and for many, a look into a world they knew little about. Some scenes were deleted at Zemper’s request in consideration of younger viewers, but will run during “The War: A Ken Bums Film,” set to air at 8 p.m. daily through Oct. 2 on WFUM. A second showing of the film on Zemper will run at 8 p.m. Sunday, Oct. 6, on the same station. It also will be shown Thursday, Oct. 11, at the Howell Carnegie Library; a time has yet to be set. Joyce Fisher, who helped coordinate efforts for the Howell library and WFUM, said she felt “the night went very well.” The highlight for her was seeing Zemper’s three sons - Eric, Steve and Dan, all veterans - pin the World War II Victory Medal on their father. “That was a special moment,” she said. With this project behind her, she already is gearing up for the next one: helping veterans document their World War II experiences at www.michigantelevision.org or over the phone. Anyone interested in learning more about the effort can call Fisher at 517- 546-0720, ext. 129. Laurie Humphrey can be reached at Ihumphrey® livingstoncommunitynews.com or 810-844-2003.

W e e k e n d o f w a l k i n g E v e n t f u n d s b r e a s t c a n c e r r e s e a r c h BY LAURIE HUMPHREY News S ta f f Reporter They are walking for family. They are walking for friends. They are walking for those compelled to share personal stories of loss and heartache while buying candy bars at the ladies’ most recent fundraising event. They will walk for everyone in the fight against breast cancer. They are Patty and Sheila Combs, both of Pinckney; and Teresa delGaudio, of Marion 'Township. 'Today through Sunday, they will travel 60 miles to raise awareness and money in the Breast Cancer 3-Day. Michigan is one of 11 states participating in the annual event. Last year’s walk drew 2,400 Michigan walkers, and organizers are hoping to meet or exceed that number this year. “When you start talking to people, somehow, someway, everyone has been affected by cancer,” explained Patty Combs, 32, when asked why she would walk for the first time this year. She and her two sisters-inlaw, who make up team We Believe, were charged with raising a minimum of $2,200 each for the walk. Hoping to keep friends and family from footing the $6,600 tab, they hosted a series of fundraising events from Pampered Chef parties, a 50-50 raffle, a silent auction and garage sale. They also have sold candy bars. Their biggest day was Sept. 22 inside Kroger at the corner of Michigan Avenue and M-59 near Howell. That’s when they raised about $400 selling candy bars and pink lapel pins, bracelets and other trinkets made to show support for breast cancer awareness. “I will buy one (candy bar) for each of my kids,” said Kroger shopper Pam Shaw of Howell. She supported the efforts of team We Believe because “cancer is everywhere. It doesn’t matter your age, whether you are male or female, it affects everybody. My sister had bladder cancer.” The local walkers have 'When you start talking to people, somehow, someway, everyone has been affected by cancer.' P a tty C om b s , loca l Breast Cancer 3 -Da y w a lk e r heard a lot of stories of loss and survival during their fundraising efforts, and that connectedness with others helps to bolster them when they feel worn down from ongoing fundraising efforts. “We have racked our brains” looking for ways to raise money, said Sheila Combs, 44. Despite their efforts, which began last January, the group is still about $500 short. “But we have four weeks after the walk to raise money.” During that time, the women and their children hope to visit local schools after sporting events to collect pop cans. Donations also will continue to be appreciated on the Web at www.the3day.org. Click on “make donation,” click on “Michigan,” then type in “Sheila Combs.” Sheila Combs, also a firsttime walker, has lost several family members to cancer - two aunts, an uncle “and I just found out my father has lung cancer.” She was drawn to this walk for them, for a friend who lost her battle with breast cancer almost a year ago, and for her five daughters who she hopes will never experience the physical and emotional scars of the deadly disease. “I want them (researchers) to be able to find a cure,” she said. According to literature from Susan G. Komen for the Cure, a nonprofit organization started in 1982 by Komen’s sister, Nancy Brinker, one in eight women is likely to suffer from breast cancer. Eighty-five percent of the money raised from the 3- Day walk will benefit Susan G. Komen for the Cure, funding research and community outreach programs, with the remaining 15 percent to benefit the National Philanthropic Trust Breast Cancer Rmd for research, treatment, prevention and education. 'Teresa delGuadio, 39, is walking for her friend who died from breast cancer last October. “Just seeing what Kim (Meloche) went through ... I will always be supportive (of efforts working toward a cure.)” DelGuadio and her friend had planned to walk in last year’s event together, but “she got worse and worse,” she said. “I just knew in my heart of hearts, she would never be able to do the walk. I’m doing this for her.” She plans to cross the finish line before a cheering crowd that will include her friend’s husband and four children. The route ■ The route, generally open from 6:30 a.m.-7 p.m., is marked with arrows and instructional signage. ■ Day One - Walkers will cover approximately 20 miles, beginning at Oakland Community College -Orchard Ridge in Farmington Hills heading east toward Livonia. ■ Day Two - Walkers will cover approximately 20 miles through neighborhoods and Hines Drive Park of Livonia and Plymouth. ■ Day Three - Walkers will cover approximately 16 miles continuing through Hines Drive heading toward The Henry Ford in Dearborn.

B6 THE L IV IN G S T O N C O M M U N IT Y N EW S FRIDAY, SEPTEM BER 28, 2007 Hartland students get their peace of The Rock in fellowship hall Project By: Garnet Johnson & Associates Photo By: Gary Easter liki t‘llU AlUUUil Drop-in center provides large comfortable setting BY L ISA CAROLIN News S ta f f Reporter Once a week, middle school and high school students have their own place to go in Hartland Township. It’s called The Rock, and it’s housed in the fellowship hall of the Hartland United Methodist Church, which the church shares at no cost. The Rock has no religious affiliation and is run by a group of volunteers headed by Kelly Breniger, whose daughter is a senior at Hartland High School and a regular at The Rock. “The purpose of The Rock is to give teenagers in the area an alternative place to go,” says Breniser. “Many of them are from families where both parents work. They go home to an empty house and sit on the computer or watch TV Theses kids need to know there’s a safe place they can go and have fun.” The fellowship hall was built more than three years ago when The Rock first started and provides a large, comfortable setting with lots of tables and chairs, a snack bar, and space both indoors and out for kids to play sports and games. Most of the students who come there walk from Hartland High School and from the Middle School at Ore Creek. “This is a good environment to get homework done,” says Chris Walker, a sophomore at the high school. “There are people to help you if you need it. There is always someone to talk to. It’s a really friendly environment.” High school sophomore Mary Laurel Brady has been coming to The Rock for two years both to socialize and do homework. “They have parties here that are really great, especially the end-of-the-year bash,” The Rock, a teen lounge open every Tuesday, is a place for students to hang out or do homework. Steven Adams, 13, of Brighton Township, plays what he calls "ping-pong hockey" with this friend. Matt McCarthy, 12, of Brighton Township. JAMIE CHARBENEAU-PISELLA, THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS says Brady. “There’s lots of space here, too.” Every kid that comes to The Rock has to register and sign a contract, promising that they will respect and keep the rules of the church. The Rock has a “three strikes, you’re out” policy. Breniser says it’s the volunteers who make The Rock possible. Ron Warthman has been volunteering at The Rock for several years. “I like working with youth,” says Warthman, whose grandson is one of the participants. “This is the first place kids come after school.” “When I’m not working, I like to volunteer here,” says Laura Walker, whose son is a regular. Pat Schleh’s sons are in their 40s, but that doesn’t stop her from volunteering. “I always wished for something like this for my kids,” says Schleh. “It’s a valuable program.” Every week, there is a snack bar offering fi-ee apples, carrots and peanut butter. Kids can also buy candy, chips, com dogs, spaghetti and meatballs, macaroni and cheese, pizza, popcorn and ice cream. “Our numbers keep growing, and we get an average of 30-50 kids every week,” says Breniser. “We offer special programs sometimes, like dance lessons and movies, and get visits from people from places like LACASA and the sheriff’s department. Sarah Devitt and her cousin Abby enjoy socializing at The Rock “It’s a relaxing place to chill out before you go home,” says Abby Devitt. “I’ve been coming here for the last few years,” says Sarah Devitt. “It’s fun to hang out with friends and it’s safe. No one gets in trouble.” “It’s when kids are bored that they get into trouble,” says Breniser. “I would love to open The Rock five days a week if we could get the volunteers to help run it.” Wosht*now R»mod«t«r9 p ^ CouncU 1 w w w .

Just past the halfway point of the season, there’s a fiveway tie for first place: Brighton, Howell, Novi, Lakeland and South Lyon all sport 3-1 KVC records. All five are legitimate threats to win the championship. It’s a race for the ages. “I’ve heard people in other years say the league is pretty balanced,” Murray said two days after his Bulldogs’ 17- 14 win over Milford. “This is my 21st year in the KVC, and I’ve never seen balance like this. There are a lot of good teams.” The Bulldogs (3-2) will find out this weekend if they’re championship material by hosting Novi, the league’s hottest team, fresh off a 10-9 upset of Lakeland. The combined record of Brighton’s final KVC opponents is 12-3. “It is a tough haul,” Murray said. Tonight’s Howell-Lakeland matchup is another showdown that will greatly influence the race. “Every week it will narrow down,” Murray said. “That’s why we play this game. It (the chase) makes it &n.” All kickoffs are scheduled for 7 tonight: Novi (4-1) at Brighton (3-2) - Murray believes his grindit- out ofense helps his defense immensely. “We are not a quick strike team,” he said. “We are a ball-control team. Those kinds of teams don’t put up points, but you control the football game.” Expect another low-scoring fight. Brighton 17, Novi 14. Howeii (4-1) at Lakeland (4-1) - The Highlanders are in the hunt for their first KVC championship since 1994. Winning on the road is the best indicator of a championship- caliber team. Lakeland 24, Howell 21. Hartland (1-4) at Pinckney (1-4) - For the past four years, this game has decided last place in the league. Both coaches, Hartland’s Marcus Dukes and Pinckney’s Dan Burkholder, need a win to get their players to believe again. Hartland 25, Pinckney 22. Milford (2-3) at South Lyon (4-1) - The Mavericks, who have been outscored 89 to 88 this season, have been the disappointment of the league thus far. If they can pull some upsets, that could potentially put six KVC teams in the playoffs. South Lyon 28, Milford 20. Whitmore Lake (4-1) at Britton- Macon (0-5) - The Trojans missed their chance to go to 5-0 for just the second time in school history, losing at Morenci, 34-7. A w ^ e s s team provides the perfect salve to heal the wounds. Whitmore Lake 35, Britton-Macon 12. Eaton Rapids (0-5) at Fowlerville (4-1) - Eaton Rapids has scored just 20 points this season. Sounds like a great night for Fbwlerville coach Jack Wallace to get his backups some much-needed experience on the field. Eowlerv^e 40, Eaton Rapids 7.

But John Chalbeck won’t listen. He’s foilowing a dream, he says, to step into the ring as a professional boxer. Chalbeck, 25, will fight in his last amateur event at the Fight Night at Mount Brighton in Genoa Township on Saturday, Oct. 6. It’s a fundraiser for the Brighton Boxing Academy, where Chalbeck trains. Chalbeck cited the opportunity to earn money to support his young son, Steven, and his love of the sport as his reasons for turning professional. He’s 9-3 as an amateur, with two knockouts. “I box and get my head beat in for free. I might as well get paid for it,” he says. “It will just give me some incentive to train harder.” He will be in one of at least 12 amateur fights on the card for the fight night. Boxing promoter A1 Low says it’s rare for someone from Livingston County to turn professional. Chalbeck works two jobs in Brighton and plans to move to the area soon. “It’s pretty unique,” Low says. “There are a couple of old-timers from here, but I can’t think of many others.” Brighton Boxing Academy founder Steve Darnell, a former pro himself, admits he doesn’t advocate turning professional to anyone. He says the amateur ranks are safe, but that pro boxing is “vicious.” Amateurs wear helmets. Pros don’t. “I have no doubt he is just as good as me, or better,” says Darnell, who says he was once ranked among the top 10 in the world in his weight class with a 22-0 record. “But I wouldn’t advise it (turning pro). It is a crazy sport.” Chalbeck’s mom, Cynthia Goodwin, of Green Oak Township, says “I do all I can to talk him out of it. I’m a mom. That’s my job.” Chalbeck, a former Walled Lake Western football player, has been JAMIE CHARBENEAU-PISELLA,THE UVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS John Chalbeck trains at the Brighton Boxing Academy in Brighton Township.

Gloves competition. “I definitely learned the most from the losses than the wins,” he says. “They were all close decisions. I learned to stay relaxed, not to go for the knockout in the first round.” Chalbeck considers his strengths to be his heart, his stamina and his chin. “I’m able to take a great punch, one where most people would cower or turn around,” he says. Darnell says Chalbeck would be better served by losing weight to get into a lower weight class, possibly the junior welterweight class for boxers under 140 pounds. “He’s a good fighter.

Freshmen golfers making a big impact for Brighton JAMIE CHARBENEAU-PISELLA.THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS Brighton freshmen Erin Williams, left, and Emmie Pietila have made a big impact in their first varsity season. With them in the lineup, the Bulldogs are favored to win the Kensington Valley Conference title next week. 13-year-old girls excelled on summer Meijer Junior Tour BY JASON DEEGAN News S ta ff Reporter standing side by side on the range at Oak Pointe Country Club, Brighton golfers Erin Williams and Emmie Pietila don’t hit the ball like freshmen. Their shots soar, mostly straight and true, as they warm up for a match against Lakeland earlier this week. With Williams and Pietila consistently shooting in the 80s, the Bulldogs are a runaway favorite to win the Kensington Valley Conference crown at the post-KVC tournament Tuesday at Tyrone Hills Golf Course. Brighton coach Bill Miller says the freshmen have blended well into the team. Their emergence has offset the loss one of one of the best players in school history, Vanessa Koechli, who moved to South Carolina. “These girls know how to score,” Miller said. “They have all the tools to hit the ball.” Miller says he protected the young duo early on, even though both girls are former Meijer Junior Tour players of the year. Pietila flashed her potential immediately, winning medalist honors at the Huron Valley Invitational Aug. 14, her first varsity event. The Bulldogs won the season’s first three tournaments, culminating with a school-record score of 324 to win the Oak Pointe Invitational Aug. 21. After a hot start, Pietila, 13, has cooled slightly since school started. She was home-schooled until this fall, and attends Brighton High School just four hours a day, enough to gain eligibility imder Michigan High School Athletic Association rules. “It has taken her a little longer to adjust to school and the studies,” her father, Aaron Pietila, says. “She hasn’t been able to practice as much.” She says her putting has let her down. “It’s getting better,” she adds. Pietila comes from a family of golfers.

JAMIE CHARBENEAU-PISELLA.THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS Kenny Krell, and his wife, Annmarie Kern, seen here running at Kensington Metropark, run 3 Disciplines Racing, a company that stages running events and triathlons around the state. One of their events. The Great Pumpkin-Spooky Sprint Duathlon, will be Oct. 7 at Kensington. RUNNERS FROM C l Men pour their passion into businesses “I just love it,” says Jackson, 29, of South Lyon. 3 Disciplines Racing Bake sales and car washes weren’t raising enough money for new cross-country uniforms at the Arizona school where Krell was teaching and coaching seven years ago. Krell, a former All-American triathlete, decided to host a race. Nine events later, he had raised $10,000. Soon, every other club in school wanted him to coordinate something for them. His company was born. Krell, a Michigan native, came back to Michigan in 2002 with his wife, Annmarie Kern. The two Fenton residents, who live just across the Livingston County line, still believe that raising money for a cause is the driving force behind the company. Krell’s Web site estimates the company has donated $170,000 to charity over the years. The Great Pumpkin-Spool^ Sprint Duathlon, in its second year at Kensington, will serve as a fundraiser for Sarah Banks Middle School in Wixom. It will feature a long course, with a 5K run, 24K ride and lOK run, or a short course, with a 5K, a 12K ride and 5K run. Krell expects up to 400 participants. In 2008, a SuperKids program will be launched, with shorter distance events that encourage children to stay fit. Krell also plans to enhance a “Get Michigan Fit” program by offering race discounts to runners who bring others into the sport. Krell, 37, says he’s completed 243 triathlons in his career, but only two since launching 3 Disciplines Racing. He says he’s considering attempting his sbcth Ironman triathlon but back problems are an issue. “You get the itch (to compete) when you are around 1,000 athletes every weekend,” he says. Element Events For years, Jackson has worked at events run by Red Rock Co., founded by childhood friend, Jeff Suffolk. Red Rock, based in Arizona, hosts the SOMA, one of the largest triathlons in the country with more than 1,800 participants. Jackson, a triathlete who might run his first Detroit Free Press-Flagstar Marathon this fall, says heading a family landscaping business allowed him time to create his own company. Element Events has made an early impression. Steve Jochmans, a veteran triathlete from Green Oak Township, says the Island Lake Tfiathlon was “first class.” “I want to do things different than other companies, with better food at the finish line and quality T-shirts,” Jackson says. He’s hoping to attract 200 runners for the Pumpkinfest, a 5- and 10-kilometer run beginning at Volunteer Park, at the corner of Dixboro Road and Nine Mile Road in South Lyon. It will follow the route taken by the Pumpkinfest parade. Beyond hosting the Ann Arbor Turkey Trot, scheduled for 8 a.m. Nov. 22, Jackson envisions another triathlon in the spring, possibly in June. “I’d eventually like to do a half-Ironman,” he says. “I want to build a good events company and see where it takes me.” Jason Deegan can be reached at jdeegan@ livingstoncommunitynews.com or at 810-844-2012.

The win was the eighth Denny’s PBA Tour title of Koivuniemi’s career, and gave him a title in 11 different countries. The native of Finland has been bowling on the Denny’s PBA Tour for nine years after spending 10 years with Team Finland. “It’s great to win anywhere, but to win in Japan and to win in an arena atmosphere makes it even more special,” Koivuniemi said. Koivuniemi took home $50,000 for the win. The complete championship will air tape-delayed on ESPN at 1 p.m. Oct. 21.

GOLF FROM C l Brighton Bulldogs could contend at states a sophomore, also plays for the Bulldogs. Hannah, 12, who will attend Brighton as a freshman next fall, competed in the prestigious U.S. Kids Golf World Championship at Pinehurst Resort in North Carolina this summer. Aaron Pietila says the family joined the Huntmore Golf Club in 2007, so the children could test their games on one of Michigan’s tougher courses. “They play every day,” he says. Williams, 13, a member at Oak Pointe, says improved driving and putting have spearheaded her season. “It’s great that we are doing well. We are winning and everybody is contributing,” she says. With the post-season looming. Miller believes his youngsters have gained enough experience to play well under pressure. The Bulldogs, fifth at the Division I state tournament this spring, are a dark-horse contender to win it all. The regionals are Oct. 11-13 at Oak Pointe with the state tournament Oct. 19-20 at The Meadows in Allendale. “I think we can finish in the top five (in the state). That’s the ultimate goal. We can compete with the best of them,” Miller says. Jason Deegan can be reached at jdeegan@ livingstoncommunitynews.com or at 810-844-2012.

Conservative commentator and author Ann Coulter had these comments for her audience Monday: ■ On the decision to attack Iraq: "We kept the terrorists tied up in Iraq, so there has not been another terrorist attack on American s o il... since 9/11 ... We're fighting a war and we're winning." ■ On former Iraq dictator Saddam Hussein: "The moment they have technology, (our enemies) use it. Isn't that a good reason to take out a dictator?" ■ On whether she would ever run for political office: "I do understand that politicians have to be diplomatic, and I don't have that gene." ■ On Democrats: "Liberals spend so much time hating, hating, hating, they never get anything done. We thought President Clinton was a cheap pervert, but we didn't hate him." ■ Response to an audience question asking the first item on the agenda if liberals win the 2008 election: "Losing the war on terrorism." ■ In response to a question about "how much of a beating" Republicans will take in November: "I'm not convinced the Republicans will lose. Without a Watergate, it's much harder for Democrats to win in wartime." ■ On the new U.S. Supreme Court session, which began Monday and will consider, among other cases, the death penalty: "I always thought Aria Booksellers of Howell had Ann Coulter's book available for purchase at the luncheon Monday sponsored by the Livingston Economic Club. Coulter drew a sellout crowd of about 500 to the Johnson Center at Cleary University. the death penalty should be used to replicate the way the victim died." ■ On U.S. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif.: "I can't believe the stupidity of Nancy Pelosi. If she should ever be captured by terrorists, they wouldn't have to blindfold her." ■ On the Bible: "The one Christian commandment I have trouble with is that love your enemies thing." ■ On H illary Clinton: "That laugh is freakish. We cannot have that laugh for four years." ■ On Barack Obama: "At least Obama is not Hillary (Clinton)." ■ In response to a question asking if she would run for governor of Michigan: "From what I've seen, anyone in this room is qualified to run for governor of Michigan." a n d fo rm e r N e w Y o r k m a y o r R u d y G iu lia n i, C o u lt e r s a id s h e w o u ld v o te fo r R o m n e y . “ I ’d h a v e to g o fo r R o m n e y ,” C o u lt e r s a id . “ I d o n ’t k n o w i f I c o u ld v o te fo r a c a n d id a te w h o is p ro - c h o ic e ,” a d d in g th a t G i u lia n i “ is a ls o a n t i- g u n .” L a r r y L a w r e n c e , a B r ig h to n r e s id e n t a n d b u s in e s s o w n e r , w a s o n e o f d o z e n s o f p e o p le s t a n d in g in lin e fo r a c h a n c e to g e t a n a u to g r a p h e d c o p y o f C o u lt e r ’s n e w b o o k , “ I f D e m o c r a t s H a d A n y B r a in s , T h e y ’d B e R e p u b lic a n s , ” w h ic h w a s r e le a s e d n a t io n a lly T u e s d a y .

KIM HYTINEN, SPECIALTOTHENEWS m r tm G m k s m m m Hey, A le x an d Tig here hoping you’ll take advantage of the Humane Society’s cat adoption promo going on now! You can adopt both of us for the low adoption fee of only $80.00! We’ve had a!! of our vaccines, have been neutered and even go home with a bag of food! Right now, when any 2 cats over 6 months of age are adopted into the same home, the adoption fee is waived on the second cat! They have lots of wonderful felines just like us that are waiting for homes. Some of the cats have been waiting a long time and are losing hope so make sure you stop in just as soon as you can. The HSLC has extended its hours, too, to make adopting even easier! The shelter is now open 6 days a week!

State government shuts down, briefly, before the budget is rescued with an income tax hike and a new sales tax on services. Key to those votes were two Livingston County Republicans who broke ranks to vote for one or the other. Conservative commentator Ann Coulter brought a barrel full of liberal-bashing one-liners to the county with a Monday talk before the Livingston Economic Club. Her talk was more like a comedy routine at the expense of Democrats than a speech that provided any new insight into important issues. La te r that night, Jonathan Cohn, an editor with the liberal New Republic magazine, came to Howell to talk about the crisis within the American system of health care insurance. He used real-life examples of families pushed to the brink of financial ruin by not being able to afford health insurance to make his case for universal health care. Both Coulter and Cohn are authors with books on the market. Coulter’s latest book: “ If Democrats Had Any Brains, They’d B e Republicans.” Cohn’s book: “ Sick: The Untold Story of America’s Health Care Crisis.” I suspect I was among a small number of people who attended both Monday talks. I was at Cleary University for lunch to hear Coulter skewer Democratic candidates by name - “That (H illary Clinton) laugh is freakish” - and talk about liberals as if they were lepers that should be sent to their one colony far, far away. And I was at The Opera House in the evening to hear Cohn explain why universal health care, perhaps patterned after programs in France or Germany, would be better than the have-andhave- nots system we currently use. The differences in the two events was dramatic. The Coulter luncheon was a sellout with almost 500 people paying $50 to $60 to hear her. It appeared that about half the crowd also bought her latest book and waited in line to have her sign it. The Cohn talk drew about bout 140 people, satisfying organizers who wanted to offer an educational event more in tune with political moderates in the county. A handful of people bought his book. The Coulter event included a catered lunch. The Cohn event offered cider and doughnuts. The Coulter speech cost the Livingston Economic Club $30,000. Cohn came to Howell at no cost and those who attended donated $1,500 to a free dental clinic being established to serve low-income county residents. The Coulter event was firstclass entertainment perfectly tailored to a GOP-stronghold community like Livingston County. The Cohn event had a high educational value for those who wanted to better understand the shortcomings of the system of paying for health care in the United States. 'Two authors and two very different books. Two events in the same day targeting very different crowds. Attending both helped me better understand the widening spectrum of political thinking in this community.

Everybody who lived here 'was like family' The former Howell State Hospital in Marion Township, which over the years housed tuberculosis patients and then people with developmental disabilities - plus hospital staff and their families. A reunion for those associated with the hospital took place last weekend in Howell, allowing them to visit and share their memories.

"I was the pitcher," he said. ■ Nancy Jean Davies Myer of Howell, medical aide: In speaking of the young girls she worked with, she said physically they were 8 to 10 years old, but their cognitive ability was that o f ages 4 or 5. "Some of them really had a sense of humor. I enjoyed taking care o f them, but it made me appreciate the fact that I had six healthy kids at home," she said. ■ Jackie (Hogan) Cartier of Fowlerville, medical secretary: Just out of high school, she lived on the property, "going home only on the weekends." She remembers a group o f coworkers playing ball, tennis or bicycling on the property after work. "We were all such good friends," she said. ■ Ingeborg Detterbeck of Howell, wife to Dr. Frank Detterbeck: "The wives always got together to exchange recipes and the kids would play," she said. On occasion, the sharing o f culinary skills would include a lesson in culture or vocabulary. Since each of the physicians hired at The Sanatorium were specialists in tuberculosis, it was common to have several countries represented. Upon reading a* recipe from one o f the wives from Thailand, she needed clarification for "flying pan." The directions actually called for a frying pan. ■ Mary Wilkinson of Howell, director's secretary: "We made quite a big deal about Halloween. We had nice Halloween parties." For some, fa c ility is w h e re th e y g rew up BY LAURIE HUMPHREY N e w s S t a f f R e p o r t e r The word “ sanatorium” doesn’t conjure a feeling of close-knit family life, but that’s just how former employees think of their time working at the former state hospital that was closed completely in 1982. Fowlerville resident Marilyn Wilkinson’s parents, Leslie and Ruth White, worked and lived at the facility for years. It is where Marilyn, now 67, grew up, along with other “ family members,” both blood-related and not, because everybody who lived there “was like family,” says Wilkinson. “My (deceased) father was the head of buildings and grounds, and my (94-year-old) mother was in accounting,” she says, remembering the early years. She moved to the sanatorium in 1946 S E E FAMILY,83 Howell sanatorium history at a glance ■ 1890 - The Michigan State Board o f Health begins to p e titio n the state Legislature for money to create and support a Michigan State Sanatorium to care fo r patients suffering from tuberculosis. ■ 1905 - State legislators approve $20,000 for land acquisition and one year o f operating expenses. ■ 1906 - Howell area site selected from more than 20 potential sites.

L A C A S A s t a f f e r s in B e l i z e t o a id s o c ia l s e r v i c e a g e n c i e s Efforts to focus on domestic violence, sexual assault BY TOM TOLEN N e w s S t a f f R e p o r t e r Three Livingston County women are in Belize until Oct. 15 to work with community leaders and social service agencies in the tiny Central American country on domestic violence and sexual assault issues. Candy Jones-Guerin, Je s sica Kelley and Ja n Watkins - all employees of LACASA, a local domestic violence and sexual assault treatment and prevention agency - left last weekend for the former B r it ish colony, about the size of Massachusetts, in the Caribbean. While there, the local women will be staying in Belizean homes in small villages and will be driven to the nation’s largest city, Belize City, each day to conduct the seminars and workshops. “ I ’ve been looking forward to it,” said Watkins, a 27-year veteran of LACASA and statewide program director for the Michigan-Belize project. “We have several workshops with groups like the YWCA for women who have been identified as ‘at risk,” ’ Jones-Guerin said. “We will visit the Hattieville Prison and do a four-day, intensive workshop for community leaders and we w ill help them create strategic planning,” she said. The Belize trip is part of a two-week educational exchange that was arranged by Partners of the Americas and funded by the State Department. Michigan has had an ongoing partnership with Belize since 1966, and has helped the country in areas such as agriculture, health and education. The trip is similar to a visit arranged four years ago through Partners of the Americas, in which social workers from the Dominican Republic came to LACASA headquarters in Howell to get first-hand knowledge about its programs and services. Partners of the Americas is an international, volunteerbased organization dedicated to helping Latin American nations by sharing technical assistance and sharing experiences. “Where they are is where we were seven years ago,” Jones-Guerin said. “You must remember that domestic violence programs and shelters are only 25 years old in the U.S.” While in Belize, the women were scheduled to visit H aven House, the country’s first shelter for victims of domestic assault, to conduct programs and seminars. They were also to be interviewed and featured in local newspapers and on radio and 'TV Watkins and Jones-Guerin said they realize there are cultural differences between the two countries, but still feel they will be able to accomplish much.

It is published by Mitten Press in Ann Arbor. Bretman’s first book, “ I Saw It In the Garden,” was published in 2006. It ’s the story of a garden lovingly tended by a grandfather and his granddaughter. Breiman lives in Oceola 'Township just outside of Howell with his \^e, Jane, and three sons.

FAMILY FROM B1 Children th o u g h t o f sanatorium as ju s t an o th e r neighborhood as a 6-year-old, and believed it to be “ a great place to ride bike. And in the winter time, you couldn’t find a better place for sledding and tobogganing” with 450 acres of rolling tercain. A pond sat at the foot of one hill, and while residents couldn’t swim in it, they could go fishing during the summer and ice skate on it in winter. Wilkinson never gave living at the sanatorium a second thought, believing it was just another neighborhood, especially while her cousin, Sarah McKiddie, lived there. Sarah’s mother, Gladys, was Ruth White’s first-cousin. She did office work at the hospital, while Sarah’s father, Virgil, worked as an engineer in the power plant. “There is a very soft spot in my heart for that place,” she says. Wilkinson admits her neighborhood was a little different because kids in her neighborhood caught the school bus at a hospita l’s ambulance entrance and used the hospital’s tunnels to get from one side of the fa c ility to the other in bad weather, “but I never felt isolated or like I was in danger.” There also was an understanding “ if you were playing outside from 1 to 3 p.m., you had to be quiet for the patients,” she recalls. Wilkinson moved her belongings from the property in 1960, but never really left. She always went to visit her mom, who continued to work and live on the property until 1977. In addition, her late husband, Jim , whom she met at school, joined the “ family” as an employee in the hospital’s power plant in October 1966 and stayed imtil the site’s closure in 1982. As a child, Wilkinson has memories of typical teenage activities, including babysitting for the children of Dr. REUNION FROM B1 S ta f f and fam ilies lived a t 'The S a n ' as w e ll as patients at the facility that has since been demolished. Sept. 30 marked the 25th anniversary of the building’s closing, but happy memories continue to stand tall for former employees and their families, even as new housing begins to change the landscape of the 450-acre rolling parcel in Marion Township. “We were like family,” says Deloris Kalen, 82, of Genoa Township. “ I watched a lot of children grow up, go into the service and begin their own families.” Her late husband, Robert, was a barber at the facility from 1947 to 1978, and while she never worked there, the friendships she developed have prompted her to attend and help organize the annual reunions. “ It ’s important to keep in touch,” she says, “but the crowd is getting smaller.” The latest gathering drew about 40 people. From 1907 to 1982, the former hospital on County Farm Road housed hundreds of patients on six floors, including boys, girls, men and women. Admission was not discriminatory. Some were paying patients, while others were guests of the state or county. Regardless of who paid the bill, admission in the beginning was $7 a week, according to hospital records. The facility changed names and purposes over the years. It was originally built as the Michigan State Sanatorium at Howell for the treatment of tuberculosis. It later became Howell State Hospital when patients with developmental disabilities where treated there. It was renamed the Hillcrest Regional Center for Developmental Disabilities before it was closed. The sanatorium - “The San” as many former employees affectionately call it - was more than just a place were people came for treat- COURTESY HOWELL HISTORICAL ARCHIVES ATTHE HOWELL CARNEGIE DISTRia LIBRARY Male tuberculosis patients at the state sanatorium in Marion Township. The facility was later used by the state Department of Mental Health before being torn down in the mid-1980s. ment. It was a self-sufficient entity that aimed to meet the patients’ and employees’ every need with a worldng farm, apple orchard, convenience store, post office, water and heating plants and kitchen staff. According to Ralph Benson of Howell, one of the few remaining former employees dating to the time of tuberculosis patients, the sanatorium had its own dairy farm. “We used to make our own milk,” he says, shedding some light on his 42 years of service. Hired in as a farm hand at 18, he moved to the stock room, and then the heating plant before ending his career in 1982. The hospital, situated on the highest point in southeast Michigan, according to former employees and paperwork detailing the beginning years of the state’s first tuberculosis sanatorium, offered patients a picturesque place to live. Dormitories also were set up for single employees, while married staffers were offered apartments - four per building. Dr. Frank Detterbeck, one of six physicians on staff at the sanatorium and a former resident, attends the reunions “because I knew many of the employees, and want to see what happened to them.” Physician apartments were close to the hospital “ in case of emergencies,” explains Detterbeck, a native of Switzerland. Since each of the physicians hired at the sanatorium were specialists in tuberculosis, it was common to have several countries represented. During Detterbeck’s 25-year tenure, the countries of 'Thailand, Germany, 'lUrkey and the United States were ^ represented at one time. After leaving the facility, many of them stayed in the area, opened practices, shared services and even helped some former patients become doctors. “ Some of the T B patients took up medicine,” says Detterbeck, 79. The spirit of cooperation and friendship extended to all residents at the sanatorium. There was no separation by social class. Everyone played, lived and worked together. “ It was a well-knit community,” said Howell resident Mary Wilkinson, 87. “ Everybody knew everybody, and all their business ... but everyone was so compatible.” Wilkinson worked there for 28 years, beginning as a medical records librarian in 1954. B y the time the facility closed in 1982, she was secretary to the director, Robert St. Charles. According to Lois Winegar, local historian and archivist at the Howell Carnegie District Library, “The San was a very important part of the community.” While none of the facility’s patients came from Howell, most of the workforce did. “ It was one of the largest employers of the time,” agrees Nancy Je an Davies Myer of Howell. Myer joined the staff in 1961, just as the hospital changed from serving tuberculosis patients to the developmentally disabled. Myer, 75, worked as an aide to meffical staff caring for young girls. Her experiences there caused her to pursue a career in nursing, which would later enable her to work at McPherson Hospital, now St. Joseph Mercy Livingston Hospital. “ It was sad to close the place,” says Lewie Crawford, 76, who travels to the reunions from a small town south of Cadillac. At 15, Crawford’s father brought him into “ the family” as part-time help in the kitchen. He enjoyed working in the kitchen, eventually rising to a chef’s position, but ended his 33-year tenure in maintenance. “ I closed the place down,” he says with a tinge of regret. Reflecting on earlier times, he described the property as “ a beautiful place.” L a u r ie H u m p h r e y c a n b e r e a c h e d a t Ih u m p h r e y © l iv in g s t o n c o m m u n it y n e w s . c o m o r 8 1 0 - 8 4 4 - 2 0 0 3 .

BELIZE FROM B1 Cultural differences taken into account “We try to be culturally sensitive, to not force the American mentaUty but (to do) things that will work for them,” Jones-Guerin said. Too, there is a common language: English is the official language of Belize, although Mayan and Creole dialects are spoken there. Watkins said that domestic violence and sexual assault aren’t necessarily worse in Belize than in other countries, though the women have to deal with the Latin American culture of machismo. “ It ’s a worldwide problem,” Watkins said. “ (Domestic violence or sexual assault) is one of the top three things women have to deal with,” she says, citing health care and education as the others. One problem in Belize, Jones-Guerin said, is that a greater number of such crimes go unreported because health care and emergency service workers are not trained to spot domestic violence or sexual assault. The Livingston women hope to change that, and to teach residents in Belize how to build a strong support network.

Fatima Poggi, 15, of Hamburg 'Township, who plays Jasmine, and Nolan Holt, 15, of Hamburg 'Township, who plays Jafar, are making their Junior Pinckney Players debut. “All the little girls love Ja s mine, and she’s such a great character,” Poggi said. “ She’s pretty, but she’s also smart and open minded and very independent.” Ja fa r is the evil right-hand man of Jasmine’s father, the Sultan. “He’s bent on absolute power and world domination, but he gets his in the end,” Holt said. “This is a very good group to work with. It’s hard work, but it’s fun, too.” Jacob Dentel, 15, of Hamburg Township, a Pinckney Players veteran, plays the Sultan. “He cares more about his daughter than anyone else, but he has to follow the law, which says she must marry a prince,” Dentel said. “She’s not very happy about that.” Aladdin is played by MacKenzie Doyle, 15, of Brighton. “He’s admired Jasmine from afar, but knows they can never be together because he’s not a prince,” Doyle said. “He uses his first wish to become a prince.” Also new to the Pinckney Players this season is an improved Web site at www.pinckneyplayers. com.

Gago, 38, a reproductive endocrinologist, w ill open Livingston County’s first fe rtility clinic, the Gago Center for Fertility, in November. She began seeing patients last week at the Genoa Medical Center in Genoa Township, where her office will be located. “ I am partnering with a colleague who has an in v itro fertilization lab in Warren,” Gago explained. “ Egg retrieval and embryonic transfer w ill be done at her lab, but all follow ups, intrauterine insemination, ultrasounds and monitoring w ill be done at my office in Genoa Township,” she said. Gago comes from a family of doctors. H e r father, retired Dr. Arthur E .E . Browne, was a family practitioner in the Brighton area for 35 years. H er brother. Dr. Shannon Browne, is a practicing intern ist in Brighton along with his wife. Dr. M aria JAMIE CHARBENEAU-PISELLA.THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS Dr. April Gago, a Livingston County native who is board certified in reproductive endocrinoiogy, recentiy opened the Gago Center for Fertiiity in Genoa Township. Fertility clinic opens in Genoa ■ What: Gago Center fo r Fertility, run by Dr. April Gago. ■ When: Practice is open; office is scheduled to open Nov. 1. ■ W here: 2305 Genoa Business Park Drive, Suite 180, Genoa Medical Center, Genoa Township. ■ Inform ation: 810-227-3232 or on the Web at gagofertility . com. Browne, who is a family practitioner. “My dad delivered babies, and I found it fascinating,” said April Gago, who is the mother of four boys, ages 11, 8, 4 and 3. “ I always wanted to be a mother and can understand the strong desire to make that happen. If it doesn’t come easy to people, it ’s a difficult thing, and it ’s important to me to help.” Gago earned a bachelor’s degree in communication at the U n iversity of M ichigan and then married Luis Gago, who is also a doctor, and who was then an officer in the Navy. The couple moved to San Diego, where April Gago attended medical school at the U niversity of California at San Diego. They moved back to Ann Arbor and April Gago did her residency in obstetrics and gynecology at U-M. Lu is Gago completed medical school at Wayne State U n iversity, where April Gago went for her fellowship in reproductive endocrinology and infertility. She then returned to U-M, where in addition to having a practice, she has been an assistant clin ical professor for three years. Gago has developed a fertility preservation program for people who have diseases that threaten their fe rtility, such as cancer, in which chemotherapy or radiation treatment can be harmful. It was her idea to open a fe rtility clin ic in Livingston County. “ I enjoyed growing up in Livingston County,” she said. “M y mom and dad s till live in the house I grew up in, and it ’s a warm community with good people. “When I was growing up, we came to Ann Arbor for a lot of things. I t ’s nice to have things like medical facilities right here in the county.” Lisa Carolln can be reached a t lcarolin@ livingstoncommunitynews.com or a t 8 1 0 -8 4 4 -2 0 1 0 . B6 THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS FRIDAY, OCTOBER 5, 2007 Second place in Lakeland Elementary School's cabbage contest went to Danielle Stowell, 9, with this 22-pound specimen. Jeremy Start, 9, grew a 21-pound cabbage that actually split into two this summer. It took third in the local cabbage contest. Katrina Gensterblum, 9, now a fourthgrader at Lakeland Elementary School, spent her summer vacation growing this 26-pound cabbage. Her cabbage was the largest of those grown by Lakeland thirdgraders in a contest for a $1,000 college scholarship by Bonnie Plant Farm in Union Springs, Ala.

Their efforts could land one of them a $1,000 scholarship through a contest sponsored by Alabama's Bonnie Plant Farm. The successful gardeners and the size of their cabbages are: ■ K a trin a G ensterblum - 26 pounds. ■ D an ie lle Stow e ll - 22 pounds. ■ Je rem y S ta rt - 21 pounds. ■ M ik a y la Marsh - 19 pounds. ■ Sarah Senne - 12 pounds. ■ Jo rd a n Danko - 9.5 pounds. ■ Damon H artm eier - 8.5 pounds. ■ LeAnn Howe - 5.5 pounds. ■ Edd ie Roberts - 4 pounds, 5 ounces. ■ So p h ia Coke - 3 pounds, 2 ounces. ■ Ja co b Robinson - 3 pounds. ■ A b b y H ackett - 2 pounds. BY LEANNE SMITH N e w s S t a f f R e p o r t e r Katrina Gensterblum IS no stranger to gardening. “We’ve grown beans, tomatoes, peas, zucchini, raspberries and blueberries,” said the 9-year-old Hamburg "rownship girl. “ But never cabbage.” Until now. The 26-pound specimen she nurtured in the family garden this summer could earn Katrina cabbage of a different type - a $1,000 scholarship. L a st April, Katrina and all third-graders at Lakeland E l ementary School received a tiny cabbage plant from Bonnie Plant Farm in Union Springs, Ala. The company annually challenges third-graders throughout the U.S. to grow its signature Oversized Cross cabbages for a chance to earn money for college. “A parent sent me an e-mail about it,” said Sharon Cooper, a Lakeland third-grade teacher. “We teach a section on plant life cycles. What better way to do it than to have the kids see a cabbage grow?” Some of the lessons learned included the discovery that deer and rabbits love tender young cabbage plants, plants don’t do well if they’re not watered, and most vegetables don’t grow in the shade. Ninety plants went home with Lakeland’s students for the summer. 'Twelve pictures of cabbages came back to the school’s open house last month. They helped make up about 75 entries Bonnie Plant Farm received from Michigan schools this year. One will be randomly drawn later this month as winner of the scholarship, said E llis Ingram, the Bonnie Plan t Farm ’s Third Grade Cabbage Scholarship P ro gram director and its customer relations manager. A $1,000 scholarship is given by the company to one student from each of the program’s 45 participating states. “We just love doing this,” In gram said. “We hear all the time that it brings parents and teachers and kids together like nothing else.” That was the case with K a trina, who grew Lakeland’s largest cabbage, and her mother, Ju lie, an avid gardener. “ Katrina and her sister help out in the garden every year, but this year she was more focused,” Ju lie Gensterblum said. “ She learned a lot about caring for a garden, and she had pretty good luck, too.” Because the family isn’t fond of the food, the cabbage ended up on Katrina’s grandparents’ table. Second place at Lakeland went to Danielle StowelTs 22-pound cabbage. “We put fertilizer around it, and we raked once in a while to keep the weeds out,” Danielle said. “ It took a lot of water, and it was hard to keep the deer away.” Third place went to Jerem y Start, with a unique 21-pound two-headed cabbage. “ It started raining and the cabbage split in half,” Je rem y said. “Then another cabbage started growing out of it. Weird.” Je rem y ’s mom. La ri, made room in her perennial garden for his cabbage. “We picked off some of it and boiled it and ate it,” L a r i Start said. “ Bu t most of it ended up on the compost pile.” L e a n n e S m i t h c a n b e r e a c h e d a t ls m it h @ l iv in g s t o n c o m m u n it y n e w s . c o m o r a t 8 1 0 - 8 4 4 - 2 0 V . w w w . l c u n i t e d w a y . o r g mwathtearts.

The Tax Increment Financing Plan was previously enacted as a Village Ordinance by the Village Council on April 26, 2004. The Development Area encompasses approximately 95.4 acres in the center of the Village. The Development Area is bounded on the west by the three hundred block of West Main (the development area temii nates at 363 and 360 West Main) and on the east end of the Village ending on the South side of M36 at the business complex ending with the address of 1222 East Main and on the North side of M36 ending at 1295 East Main. The northernmost boundary is Hamburg Street, although Putnam Street and the real lot line of businesses fronting Main Street (132 feet back from Main Street) form the largest portion of the northern boundary. The north/south streets of Mill, Mann and the perimeters of the Secondary Business district at the east end of the Village also form contours of the northern boundary. The primary southern boundary is the real lot line of businesses fronting Main Street. The southern boundary of the Secondary Business District also forms the southern Development Area boundary, and the north/south streets of Mill and Dexter fomi contours of the southern boundary. Michigan State Highway M- 36 traverses the middle of the Development area from the east to west; this highway is also designated as Main Street. Highway D-19. commonly known as Pinckney Road, intersects with M-36/Main near the middle of the Development area. Mill Pond and its tributary of Honey Creek are located just south of the Development Area; Honey Creek runs along the southeastern boundary. The proposed Amended and Restated Development Plan, the previously enacted Tax Increment Financing Plan, descriptions of both plans, along with maps and plats of the Development Area are available for public inspection during normal business hours at the office of the Village Clerk, 220 South Howell Street, Pinckney, MI 48169. 'The hearing will be held in Council Chambers at 220 South Howell Street, Pinckney, MI 48169. At the hearing, all aspects of the Development Plan will be open for discussion, the Village Council will provide an opportunity for interested persons to be heard and will receive and consider communications in writing with reference to the Plans.

The Lions, Wildcats and Howell Highlanders are all still tied atop the standings with 4-1 records and just two league games remaining. In a matchup that symbolizes each team’s stren^hs, Novi defensive end Tyler Hoover and South Lyon offensive tackle Chris Groth could butt heads throughout the game. Hoover has committed to Michigan State University and Groth is getting plenty of recruiting attention I t s e l f . South Lyon coach Mark Thomas calls their battle one of the keys to the game. If Groth can push Hoover around, the Lions could ride their smash-mouth brand of football to victory. If Hoover, who is 6-foot-7 and at least 250 pounds, can disrupt the line of scrimmage, the Lions might be forced to abandon their running game. That could turn Hoover loose to rush the passer. “ It ’s pretty exciting for both of them, to see who is the better Division 1 player,” Thomas said. “ It might raise somebody’s stock, and lower somebo(fy’s stock. That will be important. It will let the rest of the other players see if one is dominating. The other kids can feed off of that.” Here’s a look at tonight’s games, scheduled for 7 p.m.: South Lyon (5-1) at Novi (5-1) - Of the KVC contenders, Novi averages the fewest points per game (19.3) but its defense m ^ e s up the difference by allowing the least amount of points (13.7) in return. The winner clinches a playoff spot. South Lyon 18, Novi 17. Brighton (3-3) at Howell (5- 1) - You can’t call this a rivalry lately. The Bulldogs have won 10 of the last 11 meetings, allowing the Highlanders to score more than eight points just twice. It ’s payback time. Howell 27, Brighton 17. Hartland (2-4) at Milford (2- 4) - The Mavericks have lost to Brighton and South Lyon by a combined six points the past two weeks. Milford 24, Hartland 12. Pinckney (1-5) at Lakeland (4-2) - The Pira te s commit too many turnovers and penalties to overcome their deficiencies. They lost three fumbles that led to Hartland touchdowns in last week’s 33-16 loss. Lakeland 36, Pinckney 25. 5and Creek (5-1) at Whitmore Lake (5-1) - Sand Creek is the only team still unbeaten in Tri-County Conference play. The Trojans hope to change that with an upset that coidd create a four-way tie for first place. Sand Creek 28, Whitmore Lake 16. Ionia (1-5) at Fow lerville (5-1) - The Gladiators will win another one, with a keen eye toward the Haslett-De- W itt game. Should Haslett win, it would put the Gladiators into a three-way tie for first in the gold division of the Capital Area Activities Conference. Fow lerville 35, Ionia 14. Best pick: Predicted score: F o w le r^ e 40, Eaton Rapids 7. Actual score: Fow len^e, 40-12. Worst pick: Predicted score: Lakeland 24, Howell 21. Actual score: Howell, 29-24.

Golf is a game rooted in deep traditions. The third annual John Koch Mashie Niblick Invitational at Oak Pointe Country Club in Genoa Township will celebrate some of golf’s grandest traditions Saturday. Oak Pointe members, wearing knickers or kilts and long-sleeve shirts and ties, will play 18 holes while walking the Championship course with caddies, using equipment manufactured earlier than 1975. Oak Pointe golf professional John Koch, who came up with the idea along with members Dean Shollack and Tom Masterson, says the event has become “ one of the most prestigious at the club.” A full field of 72 players is scheduled to tee off Saturday morning, up from 54 the first year. “ It is a celebration of the vintage dajTS of golf, how most of us played with those clubs back in the early days,” Koch says. Golfers will leave modem conveniences behind. No carts. No range finders. No bazooka-headed drivers or super-charged balls, either.

If they’re old enough and still in decent condition, certain members of Oak Pointe Country Club might be willing to buy them. Oak Pointe golf professional John Koch says members have been cruising eBay and garage sales to find vintage clubs for this weekend’s John Koch Mashie Niblick Invitational, a tournament where players use equipment manufactured before 1975. Vintage woods must be persimmon or laminated wood. Irons must be blades. Putters must be Bullseye Spaulding Cash-in or Wilson 8802 models. Koch gets the fo a l say on what clubs are acceptable for tournament play. Each foursome will share two sets. Finding wound balata balls is an even tougher challenge than collecting old equipment. “^ e r y year, (the clubs) get older and harder to get a hold of,” says tournament co-founder Dean Shollack. “The first year, we had a lot of bad sets. Now guys are buying them on eBay and refurbishing them.” Shollack says he found his original set fi’om high school at his brother’s house. He estimates some members have bought a full set of old irons and woods for up to $100. Koch says that after 30 years in the golf business, he has some 40 Bullseye putters, 60 persimmon woods and drivers and 10 sets of irons at home. Koch admits he doesn’t loan out his best woods for the tournament. The clubs being used, “ they’ve seen some yardage on them,” he says. “The first year was hard when I got them back (with visible wear and tear). Over the years, the event is more prestigious than (worrying about) the clubs being damaged.” To contact the club about selling or donating clubs, call 810-227-9194. 2 sets of brothers lead Pinckney tennis team JAMIE CHARBENEAU-PISELLA,THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS The Pinckney boys tennis team has a unique brotherly theme this fall.

The foursome aim to propel the Pirates to a successful showing at the Kensington Valley Conference championships Tuesday at Novi. As of press time, the Pirates were battling South Lyon and Hartland for a third-place tie in the regular-season standings behind KVC powers Novi and Brighton. A quality performance at KVCs could push the Pirates (7-3 with two second-place finishes at weekend tournaments) into third alone, an impressive turnaround fi’om a year ago. “We’ve played some awesome matches,” coach Ross Wisser says. “We were competitive with Brighton for the first time.” Both sets of brothers say there’s no sibling riv a lry when it comes to their re lationships on the court.

It ’s hard to find sponsors,’’ he says. To help fund this expensive and dangerous sport, he’s considering becoming a guide or another career in the outdoor industry. His Web site, www.goalexploration. com, offers motivational speaking to help people “ Climb Your E v e r est.” Klinke’s resolve to keep climbing remains strong, despite watching someone die on Mount E v e re s t and narrowly escaping an avalanche on Mount McKinley. He says climbing mountains “ is the most basic goalachieving you can do.” “ I t ’s tangible. L ife goes back to the basics when you’re on a mountain.

ShoUack, who lives in Howell 'Township, says the club considered hosting a tournament with hickory-shafted clubs, a popular trend these days, but finding the clubs is an expensive proposition. He says he loves the experience of walking the course with a caddy. “ It’s very quiet,” he says. “It ’s a chance to see the golf course a little different than you normally see it. You see the beauty. It is a little more relaxed than trying to get around in four hours.” The members take the competition seriously, however.

Koch estimates even the club’s longest hitters can’t drive old wound balata-covered baUs more than 240 yards.

IN BRIEF R e g io n a l s f o r g o l f , t e n n i s s t a r t O c t . 11 I t ’s playoff time. It might seem like the fall season just got started, but before the weather deteriorates too fast, local golf and tennis teams are in a hurry to finish their seasons. The regionals for both sports begin Thursday, Oct. 1 1 . Look for the Kensington Valley Conference champion Brighton girls golf team to continue its season-long dominance over conference foes Howell, Pinckney and South Lyon by qualifying for the Division I state tournament out of the regional the Bulldogs host at Oak Pointe Country Club on Oct. 11. At a Division I tennis re gional hosted by archrival Novi on Friday, Oct. 12, the Brighton tennis team has an outside shot to qualify for the Division I state tournament. The Bulldogs must finish among the top three, something they couldn’t do this spring, snapping their long streak of state final appearances. O a k P o in t e t o o p e n H o n o r s c o u r s e For one day. Oak Pointe Country Club in Genoa Township w ill open its Honors course to the public. ClubCorp, Oak Pointe’s parent company, is honoring its 50th anniversary Oct. 19 with the “ The ClubCorp C harity Classic: Celebrating 50 Years of S e rv ice ,” an event billed as the world’s largest one-day charity golf and dining event. More than 100 U.S. private clubs owned by the Dallasbased company w ill open to the public to raise money for four charities, including the Muscular Dystrophy Association, The PG A Foundation and the Susan G. Komen for the Cure. “ Instead of us receiving a present (on our birthday), we are giving back,” Oak Pointe director of golf Sean Mulligan said. Oak Pointe’s event begins with lunch at 11:30 a.m., followed by a 1 p.m. shotgun and dinner at a cost of $150. Mulligan estimates that 50 spots are open to the public. C all the golf shop at 810- 227-9194 for details. “We’d like to make this an open house for the community,” Mulligan said. “ This is the only time we’ll do this. It gives people a chance to play Oak Pointe if they haven’t done so already.” From News s ta ff reports Putnam Township Board Minutes Special Meeting Synopsis September 19,2007 T h e s p e c i a l m e e t i n g o f t h e P u t n a m T o w n s h i p B o a r d w a s h e l d o n W e d n e s d a y , S e p t e m b e r 1 9 , 2 0 0 7 , 6 : 0 0 P M , a t t h e P u t n a m T o w n s h i p A n n e . x , 1 2 2 S .

FRIDAY,OCTOBER 12,2007 www.m live.com Howell, SELCRA recreation groups discuss merger Talks are planned I for Monday BY LAURIE HUMPHREY T h e L i v i n g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s Two Livingston County recreation groups may soon join ^ forces as talks continue between the Howell Area Parks and Recreation Authority and the Southeastern Livingston County Recreation Authority. According to Debbie Mikula, newly hired Howell recreation director, she and Howell city staff will meet with S E L CRA representatives Monday to discuss merging the agencies. “Nothing is for sure,” she said, “but it is something to be looked at.” S E LC R A has been without a director for about five months following the dismissal of its last leader. The group interviewed and extended a job offer last month, but it was rejected. It was expected that the on-going absence of a director, as well as talks about a possible merger would be addressed during a Wednesday night S E LC R A board meeting. “Questions are being asked of government and political people in the state to look for efficiency in government,” said Christine Vogt, a S E L CRA board member, who said interviews for a director are continuing today. “ Gary Mc- Cririe (supervisor of (jenoa Township) was the one who first asked if we should be considering a merger.” Todd Smith, chairman of the Howell rec authority and Genoa Township trustee, said talks with S E LC R A began months ago, “but we wanted to make sure we got our director in place” before taking on additional programming and operating responsibilities. S E LC R A , which has operated since the 1980s, coordinates recreation programs in conjunction with the city of Brighton, the townships of Brighton, Genoa and Green Oak and the Brighton Area Schools. It also owns the Meije r Skate Park in Brighton. Smith, who has studied reWeighing in with punnpkins JAMIE CHARBENEAU-PISELLA.THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS Martin Winton of Byron pulls 7,050 pounds of weight with his Canadian-built 1948 Cockshutt 30 tractor at the Munsell Farms Pumpkin Pull. The Oct. 6 event at the Handy Township farm drew participants and spectators form across the county and beyond. During the inaugural event, 62 tractors competed in various pull classes, dragging crates full of pumpkins weighing 1,000 pounds each. The event started at noon and lasted until 9:30 p.m. For more photos of the event, please turn to Page B5. cent participation statistics as a trustee for Genoa Township, said S E LC R A users also come ft’om Oceola and Marion townships as well as the city of Howell. “There’s good synergy there,” he said. The Howell Area Recreation Authority, which is in the process of separating from the city of Howell, serves city residents, as well as those in Oceola, Marion and Genoa townships. Smith pointed out that while S E LC R A ’s classes are well received, they own none of their own fields. “They use the school property” to run classes. Comparatively, “we (the Howell authority) have assets in each of our communities,” which may appeal to S E LC R A ’s board of directors. Mikula said staffs of the two groups plan to meet soon to work on an upcoming Ju nior Olympics Competition. “ It will be our first partnership, and our first chance to see how we work together,” she said.

Like Mary Jo Dymond, who resigned last month, Drazic did not give a reason for her decision. Drazic had served on the board since 2000. “ It ’s sad to see (Drazic) go; she had a wealth of experience and knowledge,” board Yice President Jeannine Pratt said after the meeting. The board Monday decided to limit selection of the new trustees to the 17 who have already applied for Dymond’s open position.

Grand R iver Avenue between Barnard and Center streets will shut down from 3 to 10 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 27, for the annual Legend of Sleepy Howell celebration. City council members debated a request to close the street by Main Street Manager Mindy Arnold earlier this month, citing concerns over traffic flow on the city’s main east-west corridor. Specifically, trustees questioned whether Sibley and Clinton streets, the suggested alternate routes, could handle the traffic. Howell Police Chief George Basar presented trustees with a plan to address the issues, detailing placement of police personnel signs. The plan also recently received approval from the state Department of Transportation, according to Basar. “We just needed to present them with a viable plan,” he said.

Cl n A2 THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS FRIDAY, OCTOBER 12, 2007 r- " * r l l f '■ 'S S in fT i ' i ' Y- « ' Howell schools' topjobs for lease? District considers privatizing some administrative posts BY TOM TOLEN T h e L i v i n g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s The Howell Public Schools is edging closer to a new type of privatization: Leasing back some of its own top administrators after they retire from the district. The Board of Education Monday voted to work with Professional Educational Services Group of Caledonia to provide administrative services for such a move, which is designed to cut costs to the school district. The district is exploring the arrangement for four administrators: Deputy Superintendent for Labor Relations and Personnel Lynn Parrish, Hutchings Elementary School Fhincipal John Clay, Howell Freshman Campus Principal Ann Anderson and, possibly, Associate Superintendent for Business Rick Terres. A ll except Terres have 30 years or more with the school district. Parrish, Clay and Anderson all have indicated they would be amenable to the new arrangement. Terres is undecided. The savings for the district come in not paying re tirement and health care benefits for the administrators once they retire, which are paid by the state retirement system. When they are hired back, through the third party, they are only paid their salaries. Some state legislators have been critical of school districts for privatizing administrators, calling it “ double dipping.” One legislator has sponsored legislation aimed at stopping the practice. In response to the criticism, school board members said Howell is no different than anyone else. “ I give no credence to a legislature for criticizing us for doing what they do,” said Trustee Dean Miller. “We are not the first district in Livingston County (to privatize); we’ve got to do what we’ve got to do,” said President Ph il Westmoreland, noting that Hartland and Fowlerville have done the same thing. “ If it saves the Howell school district money, ( I ’m for it),” said Treasurer Ed L ite r ski. In the program, the administrators are hired by the private company and leased to the school district. Under terms of the contract, the vendor would receive 12.75 percent of the employee’s base salary as its fee. If all four administrators accept the offer, Howell would save about $135,000 per year, Terres said. If three of the four accept the offer, the annual savings would be $94,000. Terres said the company already has placed 14,000 school employees around the state, including substitute teachers who work in Livingston County. It also offers a benefits program for privatized employees, Terres said. The board has invited company representatives to be at the Oct. 22 meeting to further discuss the potential language of contract, which is now being reviewed by the school district attorney.

FOR THE RECORD Phone number corrected The phone number for the craft bazaar for Pinckney Chapter No. 145, Order of the Eastern Star should have read 734-878-9484 in a recent edition of The News. The bazaar runs 9 a.m.-3 p.m. Nov. 10 at the Pinckney Masonic Temple, 210 Mann St., Pinckney. Panel discusses child safety with Howell parents School board i hires law firm i to investigate assault incident BY USA CAROLIN T h e L i v i n g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s Speakers at a child safety forum IXiesday night emphasized the importance of parents teaching their children about their bodies and sexuality so they will know when something is not appropriate. The forum, attended by about 40 people, was scheduled after it was learned that two young boys, ages 9 and 11, had been charged with sexually assaulting a 7-year-old on a Howell school bus last May. How the incident was handled by school officials remains under investigation. In the wake of that disclosure, many parents have expressed anger and concern that something like that could happen on a school bus. The session at Southeast Elementary School in Howell was titled “Keeping our children safe - Conversations between parent and child.” Livingston County Prosecutor David Morse explained how a case like the bus assault was investigated and how it is key to differentiate between experimental behavior and predatory behavior. “When I become professionally involved in a case, it’s at the end when kids are acting inappropriately or illegally, and everything else has failed,” said Morse. Carolyn Arking, a child psychologist spoke about what’s appropriate to tell a child about sex and at what age. “Sexual curiosity starts when a child is 3 or 4,” said Arking. “You want your child to see you as their source for information about their body and sexuality. You want them to be able to identify when things are not right and to understand the difference between good and bad touch.” Arking recommended using accurate anatomical language when explaining body parts to Safety rules Some personal safety rules to teach children, according to speakers at a forum in Howell Tuesday night: ■ If someone is touching you, and you want him or her to stop, say words that mean "no." If you are touching someone and he or she says "no," you need to stop. ■ No one should touch your private body parts except to keep you clean and healthy. If someone does, say words that mean "no." Then get away and tell a grownup. ■ Do not keep secrets about touching. children. Mary Beno, a health education consultant with the Livingston Educational Service Agency, spoke about what is being taught about personal safety and sex education in public schools. “The Howell Public Schools have a sex advisory committee that recommends what is taught at each grade level,” said Beno. ‘"The district will soon start teaching personal safety beginning in grades first through third and talking about such things as safe versus unsafe versus unwanted touch.” The curriculum, she said, will include teaching children not to keep secrets about touching, that it is never too late to tell someone about touching that breaks the rules and that when older or bigger children b y to break the touching rule, it is important to ask for help. One mother asked if teaching children such things might be putting ideas in their heads. Arking responded that by educating children it normalizes things and makes it feel safe for ffiem. Another parent asked if school districts send home letters about what’s being taught on sex education in schools. Beno said that all school districts must send home a letter about the content being taught and that parents can preview the material and can dso request that their child opt out of it. Meanwhile, the Howell Board of Education has retained the Thrun Law Firm to review district communications surrounding the sexual assault. “We want to find out what happened,” said board President Phil Westmoreland. The attorneys were not given a time frame in which to return to the board with their findings. “We’ll move as quickly as we can go,” Westmoreland added. “This is important to us.” There has been confusion surrounding the situation. Howell school officials at one point said that they did not know that the incident was sexual in nature, but police reports show that not to be the case. The district last month instituted a new policy requiring students riding the bus to shift toward the front of the bus as it empties.

A hearing to discuss switching from a May to a November annual election in 2008 is set for 6 p.m. Thursday in the Pathfinder School media center, 2100 E . M-36 in Hamburg Township. The district’s Board of Education could authorize the change during a regular meeting following the hearing. “We are at the point financially where it no longer makes fiscal sense to continue with yearly May elections,” said Linda MoskaUk, assistant superintendent for finance and operations. “Costs for a November election would be minimal in most years.” All five counly districts were among the more than 90 percent of Michigan’s 552 public school districts that switched from June to May elections in 2005 to comply with the state’s Consolidated Elections Act. The election reform law shifted responsibility for school elections to local municipal clerks with the hope that consolidation would cut costs and increase voter turnout. But, if school districts have elections in May and have the only matters on the ballot, they must cover the total cost of the election. Costs have been five to eight times higher than they were when districts ran their own elections, Moskalik said. In Pinckney, the cost of elections went from about $3,500 to nearly $15,000 a year, she said. Besides cutting costs, Pinckney believes state legislation being proposed by Rep. Chris Ward, R-Genoa Township, that would mandate November school elections is close to becoming law, said Superintendent Dan Danosl^. Superintendents in Brighton, Fowlerville, Hartland and Howell say their districts have no imme^ate plans to follow Pinckney’s potential move to November elections. One reason is a concern that school issues and board candidates M o r e t h a n a m e a l - a t r ib u t e F o w le r v i l le e a te r y h o n o r s a fa lle n f ir e f ig h te r RETAIL REPORT BY LEANNE SMITH T h e L i v i n g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s Tommy Grover Sr.’s new drive-through restaurant has support from people who know a ll about eating on the run - firefighters. Of course the Fow lerville e a tery ’s fire station decor and G rover’s dedication to the profession help a little bit, too. “ The fire department makes it feel like home,” said Grover, who opened Tommy’s Drive-Thru, 590 S. Grand Ave., on Aug. 2. “ The guys even get their own coffee. I don’t have to wait on them.” The restaurant is a tribute to G rover’s son. Tommy Grover Jr ., a F lorid a fire fighter who died unexpectedly. With this, says a plaque on the wall, comes a respect for all firefighters and the hope that the place w ill become a haven for local fire fighters. So far, it has. The Fow lerville Area F ire Department even used the place on Saturday, Oct. 6, to kick off its National F ire Prevention Week program, which follows the theme of families creating fire evacuation plans for their homes. All the trucks and equipment were on display, kids got a chance to spray a fire hose and the U niversity of Michigan Su rvival Flight medical helicopter made a landing across the street. “ This is great,” said fire fighter B rian Odett. “ Being able to have this in a public place like this lets us demonstrate to the public what we re ally do. Having Tommy’s is a big asset. The whole department is behind him 100 percent.” Building on the big start, firefighters w ill be in local schools this month reinforcing fire safety and prevention, said Bob Feig, Fowlerv ille ’s deputy fire chief.

The menu features doughnuts and coffee and breakfast sandwiches in the morning, then soup and sandwiches. Coney dogs, cheesesteak hoagies, Ita lian sausage, ground beef sliders and a list of munchies that include battered mushrooms, Fren ch fries, potato skins, chicken strips and onion rings. Grover even puts together bags of Coney dogs or sliders, both with fries, for people to take along to football games. “ The cheesesteak is really good, and so is the soup,” said Pam Huck of Fowlerville. “ I like to see small in dependent places like this. I hope people support Tommy and this place does well.” Location: 590 S. Grand Ave., Fowlerville. Hours: 5:30 a.m.-7 p.m. Monday-Friday; 5:30 a.m.-2 p.m. Saturday; 7 a.m.-l p. m.

Another concern relates to the time lapse between a November election and school districts’ fiscal year, which runs from Ju ly 1-June 30. Legislating that schools have November elections also takes away more of districts’ local control, said Ed Alverson, Fowlerville Community Schools superintendent. “There are more advantages to having a May election than there are disadvantages,” Alverson said. If Pinckney makes the move, all board member terms will be extended six months. Board members elected in November 2008 would take office Jan. 1, 2009. South Lyon has had November elections since reform took effect two years ago. Whitmore Lake switched its election date to November last year.

I think I would do a good job,” she said. “ I think I’m uniquely qualified. If they make me part of the solution, I think we could take a step forward in the right direction.” ■ W illiam Harvey of Genoa Township, an engineer who ran for the board in 2007. He also applied last spring to fill a seat left vacant when trustee Jeanne Clum resigned. “ I think it’s more imperative that we draw together as a community during this difficult time,” he said. “There’s no more room for quarreling among ourselves.” ■ K ris Kauserud of Howell Township, a self-employed intemation^ business consultant and graduate of the district who says he has time to devote and has always had an interest in education. “ I think there have been some issues that have popped up that have distracted from education,” he said. “ I ’d like to be part of changing that.” ■ Dennis Kennedy of Howell, who works in purchasing and team-building at Ogihara America. He said he’s ready to use his experience on the board. “ I ’m solid in my critical thinking skills,” he said. “ I know how to be flexible, strong and how to build consensus. I decided it was time ... I did my civic duty.” ■ Margaret Lupton of Marion Township is a graphic artist and was a Howell school board member from 1994-98. “ I miss the community involvement,” she said. “This seemed like an opportune time to get back on the board.” ■ M ark Michaels of Marion Township, a small business owner and an applicant to fill Clum’s seat last spring. “ I believe in giving back to the community,” he said. “ I believe there’s a need for a good person to be on the board.” Both his wife and mother have spent years in teaching and his father served on the Brighton school board. ■ Douglas Moore of Genoa Township, an engineer who ran for the board in 2007. “ I think all the things that have transpired points to the need for a prudent financial approach,” he said. “ I think I have something to offer.

He said he wants to be part of helping the board face its challenges. “ I ’m persistent,” he said. “ I have a continued interest in our schools. I ’ve run before and I ’ve attended the meetings. I know the issues.” ■ Dorothy Selix, of Marion Township, who is a teacher in Hartland and a lifelong county resident. “ I ’ve been watching the challenges facing the district,” she said, “ I felt I could help to gather more community support.

A school aide and parent, she said it was time to try again. “ I think I ’m an honest, hard-working, committed parent,” she said. “ I ’ve always been involved.

SCHUT FROMAl At 21, stud en t has m any irons in th e fire Joel Schut ■ Age: 21. ■ Job: Director o f the Livingston Symphony Orchestra. ■ Favorite style of music: Loves them all. ■ Greatest influences: Diane McElfish, a violinist with the Grand Rapids Symphony, and John Blakemore, a teacher at Grand Rapids Christian High School. ■ Personal goal: Graduate from college and get a teaching job leading a high school orchestra and continue to perform part-time and to work with a community orchestra and theater. ■ Upcoming concert: Saturday, Oct. 20,8 p.m., Shalom Lutheran Church, • 1740 E. M-36, Pinckney. ■ Tickets: $5 for adults, $3 for seniors and children, and $15 for a family; Available at the door. ■ Details: On the Web at www.LSO.org. at the University of Michigan,” says Schut. “ I ’m excited about the mission for the Livingston Symphony Orchestra, which is people from the county playing music for people in the county. The people in the orchestra are sincere and dedicated, and it is optimal for a music director to work in that situation.” Schut is enthusiastic about the group’s first concert this season. “We’ll be showcasing different parts of the orchestra,” says Schut. “The concert will Include Hovhaness ‘Psalm and Fhgue’ featuring our string section, and the Dvorak ‘Serenade for Winds in D Minor’ featuring our wind section.” “Joel is such a pleasure to have conducting,” says Tracy Beauregard, president of the LSD. “He really knows the violin and how to get us to play. He is a great teacher and I look forward to seeing us and him grow with the LSD this season.” “Joel is a remarkable young person,” says Judy Woods, who is on the Livingston Symphony Orchestra’s board of directors. “He has a hard act to follow in Rachel Lauber, but Rachel hand-picked Jo e l as a candidate for our consideration, so we know he is highly regarded by her. We are very fortunate to have ihm.” Schut grew up in Grand Rapids and says he’s the only person in his family to take a real interest in music. He started playing the piano in second grade, and in fifth grade, became a percussionist. He then switched to violin and has played it ever since. He spent a year at the University of Cincinnati Conservatory and then transferred to the University of Michigan. “ It ’s a fantastic school with a supportive faculty that get you to think in new and creative ways, which is what the art world needs,” says Schut. He spent this past summer working as a counselor and concert master of the Blue Lakes Fine Arts Camp International Youth Orchestra and working at the Aspen Music festival in Colorado. Schut says his goal for the Livingston Symphony Orchestra is to get more people from the community to join the group. “ I want to continue to raise the musical standard and create innovative programs that give back to the community,” says Schut. “The biggest thing for a musician is to love what you’re playing at the moment and to help other people love it.” Lisa Carolin can be reached a t lcarolin@ livingstoncommunitynews.com or a t 810-844-2010. Still no contract: Brighton teachers picket BY U SA CAROLIN J h e U v i n g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s More than 150 Brighton teachers picketed prior to Monday night’s board meeting to bring attention to the fact that they’re working without a contract. It expired in August. Many addressed the school board during the meeting including B r it to n High Counselor Barry Goode, president of the teachers’ union, who says there has not been adequate progress with negotiations. “Our membership sees other districts have settled,” said Goode. “They have tough financial times and are still settling contracts. My point at the school board meeting is that there isn’t anyone on the administration team who really knows district finances very well, and we have to submit questions in writing and typically wait two months for answers. It’s very time inefficient.” He said wages and health insurance are the biggest issues. Brighton Superintendent Jim Craig said he can’t talk about specifics, but says financial circumstances are making the negotiations challenging. “The message from the teachers is that Brighton is a high-achieving district, and our professional staff should be recognized in the compensation system for that,” he said. “That’s the struggle. The teachers feel we get great results, but the resources in the area of compensation don’t match the results we’re getting.” State funding m^ces it difficult to do any long-range problem solving, he added. Goode said he expects contract talks to move more quickly than 2005-06 when thre was no contract for the school year. IN BRIEF Oceola Township Car buffs honor sergeant's dream Resident and classic car owner David Witt has helped to make a military man’s dream come true. Witt, working with other Cuda- Challenger Club members, raised money and car parts to restore a 1973 Plymouth Barracuda for Michigan native Sgt. First Class Don Moore. Moore, who served two tours of duty in Iraq, and then volunteered for a third, had “ always wanted to own a Cuda,” said Witt. To honor Moore’s service, members of the international Cuda-Challenger Internet forum pooled money, time and secretfy restored the 1973 muscle car for Moore. Witt restored the car’s dash panel before driving it to the Ohio mechanic responsible for putting the Barracuda together. Witt had many parts on hand, and he knew where to purchase the others. Putnam Township Panels must take planning course Putnam Township’s Planning Commission and Zoning Board of Appeals mebmers are being required to take a “Citizen Planner” course through Michigan State University The township’s Board of IVustees voted Sept. 19 to make the course, which ofifers instruction in planning and zoning issues, mandatory to all new members of the groups. Existing members will be required to do so by the first anniversary of their appointment. The move, supported by everyone but Trtistee Je ff Buerman, is designed to ensure those serving on the commission and the zoning board of appeals have professional training and up-to-date information, said Supervisor Ron Rau. The course typically is taken online, but the township will offer it in whatever format people are most comfortable with, said Irtistee Tom Benedetti. There are seven members each on the township’s planning commission and zoning board of appeals. Each member is appointed by the board following a recommendation from the supervisor. Meijer in talks for land purchase Grand Rapids-based retailer Meijer Inc. is in talks with a local farmer to purchase 100 acres of Putnam Township outside Pinckney. Township Supervisor Ron Rau confinned he has talked with an agent representing Ivan Green, the property owner, about the zoning classification of the land and Meijer’s option to buy it. The land, currently zoned for large agricultural operations, is not on the township’s master plan for commercial development. The zoning classification would have to be changed to allow a supermarket. The property, nearly a mile east of the Pinckney village limits, is not serviced by public utilities. Village President Rebecca Foster said she has not been contacted by anyone regarding the availability of water and sewer services, which the village offers, but the township doesn’t.

Grand River 517.552.0720 NOVI 27775 Novi Rd. 248.348.8922 Howell gets used school buses, no new drivers B Y TO M TOL EN T h e L i v i n g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s The Howell Board of Education has approved purchase of four used school buses. However, the issue of hiring the bus drivers needed to put them into ^ service has not been resolved. The board this weekvoted to purchase three 65-passenger buses from Midwest transit - including two 1998 models and one 2000 model - for $39,700, and a fourth bus, also a ‘98, fiom the m Hartland Consolidated School " District for $9,800, making the total cost $49,500. The money to purchase the buses will come from a special $100,000 fund establish to cover costs associated with the opening of the Parker High School campus. According to District Operations Director Mike Peterson, the new buses will increase fleet capacity by 195 seats. “ It should, in terms of vehicles, put us in a respectable situation now, at least as a stop-gap measure,” Peterson told the board. Trustee Wendy Day urged a cautionary note, asking the board to take a long, hard look gj at its finances before taking any other such actions. “ I support this, but we as a board have to have an idea of where we are financially,” Day said. It was pointed out that even if the school district lacks the ^ financial wherewithal to hire " more bus drivers this year, the four buses will likely be pressed into service in 2008-09. “We may need she new buses next year (with the wear-and-tear on the fleet),” said Board President Phil Westmoreland. “These buses are better than the foiu- lowest buses we’re running,” Peterson said. He said all of the buses have been inspected by Howell staff and found to be in good mechanical condition. i T H E L IV IN G S T O N C O M M U N I T Y N E W S FRIDAY, OCTOBER 12, 2007 AS r The Livingston Community News exceiied at this year's Michigan Press Association competition.

The Livingston Community News competes against the state’s largest weekly newspapers, those with a circulation of more than 25,000. The annual awards competition was judged by members of the Wisconsin FTess Association. Managing Editor Rick Fitzgerald said he “could not be prouder” of the award-winning work by the newspaper’s staff, which ranged from writing and photography to page design and advertising sales programs. “I’m especially proud of the awards that recognize the teamwork among our staff and the partnership we have with our readers, who give us so many great ideas for stories,” Fitzgerald said. Among the awards shared by the entire newspaper Stas' are: ■ Second place in general excellence. “Fabulous design. Reproduction quality was clear. Variety of stories,” the judges said. ■ First place in design. “In a close category. The Livingston Community News’ fresh typefaces, consistent color reproduction and nice use of photos edge out others,” said the contest judges. Most of the newspaper’s page design work is handled by Casey Hans. ■ Second place in sports coverage. “Not just scores and recaps. The paper is full of interesting sports features and game stories. Photography and layout enhance the strong writing.” Sports reporter Jason Deegan handles nearly all of The News’ sports coverage. ■ First place in lifestyle pages. “This section is the handsdown winner of this category with its creative layout, strong art and lively local stories,” the judges said. ■ First place, special sections, for the annual Football section. “Strong features and active photos illustrate the spirit of prep football,” were the judges comments. Deegan coordinates the section’s content. News staff members also won several individual editorial awards. They include: ■ Sports reporter Jason Deegan won both first and second place awards in sports feature writing for stories about local athletes overcoming personal obstacles. “Elvery once in a while a real ‘feel good’ story appears and the reader goes away with a little more appreciation both for sports and life. This is one of those stories. Well written and masterfully developed. A great read,” the judges said about his first-place story about Fowlerville volleyball player Anna Zom. ■ Former reporter and copy editor James Briggs won the third-place award in the same category for his story about contestants a marathon canoe race. ■ Photographer Jamie Charbeneau-Pisella won two first-place awards and one second-place honor.

Judges were impressed with her cleverly placed “hell” cliches throughout the story and her excellent follow up. ■ Managing Editor Rick Fitzgerald won a first-place award in the local columnist category. The judges said his columns were “bright, thoughtful, topical and focused on the community. The narrative flows seamlessly, like correspondence between fiiends. Veiy engaging.” The News won an additional seven awards for its advertising efforts: ■ First place in the ad series category for ads developed by sales representative Barry Flees for Vic & Dave. “Catchy.

She was out running errands after making a list of all the things she needed to do. At her first stop, she left behind her list. At her second stop, she left behind something far more valuable; A bank deposit bag filled with several hundred dollars in cash and much more in endorsed checks from Great Harvest Bread Co., the downtown Brighton business she owns with her husband, Jeff. That would have been a lot of dough to lose. Enter Donith VanCamp, to ^ a v e the day. * The Hartland High School senior was collecting shopping carts in the parking lot of the Brighton Meijer store, which was Kelly’s last stop before heading to work. He noticed something in one of the carts ^ a t was the same blue color as the plastic in the children’s seat of the cart. We can only imagine how big his eyes got as he opened the bag and saw the cash and checks inside. For some it might have been too much temptation. VanCamp admits he thought - at least for a few seconds - about what all that money could do. He’s paying off a $1,200 repair bill on Ws 1999 Ford Ranger pickup at the rate of $50 a week. “If I would have taken that money I would have been out of debt alreadty,” VanCamp says with that tone of voice that let’s vou know he never seriously phought about keeping the cash. So, on his way back into the store, he crossed paths with one of the store’s managers and gave her the bag. The two of them figured out who f) all belonged to by looking ver the checks. The manager called Great Harvest and Kelly says she was so busy she almost didn’t answer the phone. Boy, is she ever glad she did. She says she didn’t even know she had had lost the bank bag, which apparently had slipped from her purse. She says she was embarrassed about losing the bag, but relieved that someone as honest as VanCamp had been the one to find it. Kelly thanked him profusely on the phone that day and the two have chatted a couple times over a slice of Great Harvest bread. A Donith’s mother. Holly Van- ^ am p , says she is tremendously proud of her son. “What he did was just awesome.” ’To reward his honesty. Holly VanCamp and her husband, A1 Melick, decided to forgive the ^ 0 0 Donith still owed them ^ o m one of those interest-fi-ee parent loans. As much as he could have used the money, Donith VanCamp says there is no doubt he did the right thing. And that comment alone should give us all faith in the future. Doing the right thing is not something that comes easy for everyone. Each day’s news is filled with accounts of people who are doing anything but the right thing. Every day - right here in bucolic Livingston County - people steal fix)m each other and they hurt each other. But this week, instead of focusing on those people, we’re ^ s te a d focused on a Hartland ®igh wrestler who wants to be an architect and still isn’t sure where he’s going to college next year. But there was no indecision about what you do with a bag filled with someone else’s mon- You get it back to its rightful owner.

It’s an age-old activity that can bring family and friends together, even when they are worlds apart. “People are square dancing all over the world,” said Barbara Walker, co-president of Hartland Township’s Hartland Squares, “but all the calls (commands) are in English.” Walker, 48, was taught to square dance by her parents when she was 11. She kept with it, traveling with her parents for years to conventions and festivals in Michigan and beyond, making many friendships along the way. She and her husband, Dave, have since given their two children, Melissa and Michael, the gift of square dancing. “My kids also learned (to dance) when they were young,” said Walker, “and they’ve met friends from all different states” attending festivals and national conventions. “Dancers are very welcoming,” she said, not only of her local group which has existed since the early- 1980s, but referencing members in every club. “Square dancing is an activity that invites all from 6 years old to 90 years old.” Square dancers fall into one of five categories based on skill level: basic, mainstream, plus, advanced or challenge. The difference is the amount of lessons one takes and the time spent practicing. Jim McGrain, 33, and Erin McGrain, 26, of Hartland Township began dancing eight months ago. “It gets us doing something together,” said Erin Mc- SEE SQUARE DANCING, 83 Local group gives support for autism JAMIE CHARBENEAU-PISELLA.THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS Chip Scott, 13, who has autism, learns life skills in special education classes at Pinckney's Pathfinder School that are run by the Livingston Educational Service Agency.

Now we want to start doing activities together with our kids.” The Scotts picked up on delays in Chip’s development when he was a 1-year-old. They brought him tp the University of Michigan for testing, where at age 4 he was diagnosed as haying autism. Chip has been a student in the Brighton school district, and this year is attending a program run by the Livingston Educational Service Agency at Pinckney’s Pathfinder School called the Communication Academics Behavior and Social program. “That’s what students work on in the program,” says Pamela Holloway, LESA’s director of special education programs, who says there are nine students in the program. “There is a definite nedd for a Livingston chapter of the Autism Society of America. We have a large number of students diagnosed with autism in Livingston County, which I believe in part is due to our strong programming in the schools and the positive behavior supports offered.” One of Livingston County’s draws is the START (Statewide Autism Resources and TVaining) grant, which has given LESA the money to set up intensive training by Grand Valley State University trainers for more than 100 staff members, parents, speech therapists, occupational therapists, social workers and administrators at all the school districts in the county. “The LESA program teaches Chip life skills,” says his father. “They take students to the store to buy things and teach them the value of money. They also go swimming and roller skating and bowling and practice social skills.” Louis Scott says his son was diagnosed with Asperger’s syndrome, a high functioning form of autism. He says that he has very good artistic skills and can create depth in his artwork and that he aJso has an excellent sense of direction, but that he is three to six years behind his peers when it comes to life skills. Cheryl Stebbins is the secretary for the Livingston County Chapter of the Autism Society of America. Her son, who also was diagnosed with Asperger’s syndrome, is 28 now, and was 15 when the family moved to Livingston County. “There are so many kids being diagnosed with autism,” says Stebbins. “I’m glad we have this local chapter because I want anyone looking for information to come and talk with other parents to get information and resources. I try to share any good information I can.” Lisa Carolin can be reached at lcarolin@ livingstoncommunitynews.com or at 810-844-2010.

SQ U A R E D A N C IN G FROM B1 Local clubs attract new faces to events Grain, whose husband works for the Walkers’ Hartland Insurance Agency, where Hartland Squares dances are staged. Jim McGrain was drawn to the music in the building one day and told his wife. They decided to try it, and today the pair dance at the plus level. “It’s a lot harder than it looks,” said Jim McGrain. “It’s not just do-si-do...” Dances are staged at multiple places, said Walker. “Some people dance two or three times a week and some dance every night.” Additionally, there are dance weekends in destination cities across the country. Walker believes square dancing is experiencing a decline, though local clubs continue to attract new faces. Demonstrations are given in local churches and neighborhood physical education classes. Classes are even offered through community education departments. “When square dancing was in its prime, we had between 30,000 and 40,000 people in the crowd at national conventions,” she said citing the activity’s popularity during the 1960s, ’70s and ’80s. Considered a family activity, she said there is a lack of new members because nowadays “parents are pulled in a million different directions.” Sandy Mclntire, 64, was introduced to square dancing by her parents in the ’50s. As an only child, she often went with them to dances. Well “it didn’t take me long to say T 'People are square dancing all over the world. ... Dancers are very welcoming. Square dancing is an activity that invites all from 6 years old to 90 years old.' Barbara Walker, co-president of the Flartland Squares don’t want to just sit. I want to dance, too.’” Today, she serves as president for Shindiggers, Westland’s square dancing club, and participates in demonstrations across the state. “The best thing for me is the exercise, the friendships, and I get to go someplace special once a month” for dances, she said. As a bonus, she occasionally gets to show her mother that she never forgot the dance steps learned early on in life. Majorie Kaiser, 104, still dances occasionally with her daughter, Sandy. Kaiser, also of Westland, took up dancing with her husband, a musician, in the ‘50s as a way to relax. “When I was working, I worked hard every day. At night, I wanted to go out and enjoy myself,” said Kaiser, who still tries to attend a convention here and there. Square dancing is a social event, offering people a chance to mingle. Many dancers say the camaraderie sustains people through life’s trying times. Bob Drittler, of Brighton, began dancing at his wife’s request. “She dragged me here and said ‘You have to learn this,”’ said the 68-yearold dancer. “Once I got here, I found out I loved it.” He and his wife danced together for years before his wife fell ill and died. He turned to dancing again to get out of the house, and among friends. He has since found a new dance partner with whom he travels regularly to events around the country. “It is not unusual to drive 600 or 700 miles in a dance weekend,” he said. Square dancing is not competitive, and once the steps are learned, dancers can participate anywhere, even after years of not dancing. As a result, it is difficult to determine just how many Livingston County residents can square dance. There are about 60 square dance clubs in the state, according to Walker. Dancers from across the state and beyond will come together in 2011 for the 60th National Square and Round Dance Convention. Walker expects the four-day event will attract more than 11,000 people to Detroit’s Cobo Arena. Laurie Humphrey can be reached at ihumphrey® livingstoncommunitynews.com or 810-844-2003. gteEwater.

Eddy and Murph Mueller came from Brighton Township. “We’re working on replacing a bathroom and have gotten a lot of good information here,” said Eddy Mueller. Carol Griffin, who worked with heh husband at the TVi Square Construction booth, said they had visitors ask about remodeling, small repairs, windows and basements. “We’ve been feeling the punch in the building industry for the last few years,” said Griffin. “We find that more people are staying in their homes than moving ... and that people are being careful with their discretionary income.” Dan Zink with AAA Service Network in Genoa Township, which offers heating and cooling, electrical, plumbing and appliance repair services, had a tankless water heater on display. “You don’t need a pilot with this,” explained Zink. “There is a burner that can heat 200 gallons of water at 120 degrees, and it lasts three times as long as a regular water heater.” Green Oak Township resident Darlene French said she accomplished what she’d set out to do at the Expo: She talked to several kitchen remodelers and set up two appointments. Diane Korona, executive officer of the Home Builders Association of Livingston County, said officials will be meeting soon to decide how to position the Expo for next year.

Kreeger teacher is honored Ken Damerow gets excellence award for history project From News s ta ff reports Kreeger Elementary School teacher Ken Damerow has been honored by the Michigan Association of School Boards. Damerow’s Museum Project received a 2007 Education Excellence Award from the MASB last spring and Fowlerville Community Schools’ board has accepted a sign proclaiming the distinction. Damerow’s project will be judged this fall among other recipients of the award vying for four $1,500 cash awards. Damerow’s Museum Project brings Michigan Historical Center curator David Bridgens into Damerow’s classroom to teach students how museum exhibits are created. Damerow’s fourth-grade students choose a museum topic, research the topic, and invite experts to speak and lend artifacts for the project. The students present their exhibit at Kreeger and at the Michigan History Center. Last year they created the Sports Museum of Michigan featuring Fowlerville sports legends. This year three additional fourth-grade teachers at Kreeger will join Damerow bringing more than 100 students into the Museum Project. “The kids work really hard,” Damerow said. “The Museum Project is a handson learning experience that they remember forever.” IN BRIEF Red Cross chapter gets $8,500 grant The Livingston County Chapter of the American Red Cross has been awarded an grant of $8,500 grant from the Community Foundation for Livingston County to support health, safety and disaster preparedness training. “Since 1917, the Red Cross has provided a place where ordinary people transfer compassion into lifesaving action every day,” said Diane Serra, executive director. “This grant will allow us to continue to do just that by increasing our ability to train in health and safety, add volunteers to disaster services and build on our youth program.” The Community Foundation for Livingston County, established in 1991 as an affiliate of the Community Foundation of Southeast Michigan, is a permanent charitable endowment created to benefit the residents of Livingston County.

The Highlanders, who visit South Lyon tonight, are tied with Novi for first place in the KVC standings. If both win tonight, they will tie for the championship. This could be monumental for a program that has always been overshadowed by B r i t ton, South Lyon and Novi. Even so, Webb refused to talk about a championship, or its ramifications, earlier this week. “We don’t focus on the championship per say. We focus on the process to prepare to be champions,” he said. Webb credits his offensive line and the “chciracter” of his team for its winning ways. The reality is, there’s no defining characteristic. The Highlanders do enough things well to get the job done. When Brighton stacked the line to stop the run, Howell quarterback Elvan Rhoads threw for 224 yards in a 21-7 win Oct. 5. Missing eight starters with injury, Howell’s reserves held it together for ah 30-27 win over Pinckney Sept. 21. Backup tailback Robin Witjes ran for 93 yards and three TDs. Struggling to score against Novi, kicker Craig Heger nailed field goals of 32,53 and 29 yards in a 13-9 loss Sept. 14. Embroiled in low-scoring games, the Howell defense has delivered, allowing Hartland and Brighton just seven points. If Howell can continue this mastery of the moment, more than just a KVC championship is possible. How about a district or regional title? Here’s a look at this week’s games, all scheduled for 7 p.m.: Howell (6-1) at South Lyon (5-2) -Th e magic continues. Howell 24, South Lyon 22. Milford (2-5) at Pinckney (1 -6) - This is the first of backto- back games against the Mavericks to end the season to stay out of the KVC cellar. Milford 30, Pinckney 23. Lakeland (5-2) at Brighton (3-4) - Only a miracle can get the Bulldogs in the playoffs. Brighton must win its fin^ two games against teams with a combined 12-2 record just for an outside shot to qualify. Lakeland 24, Brighton 17. Novi (6-1) at Hartland (3- 4) - Hartland comes in feeling confident, fi’esh off a thrilling 42-40 win over Milford, but Novi has too much to lose to let this one slip away. Novi 17, Hartland 14. Whitmore Lake (5-2) at Clinton (5-2) - The TYojans, who were humbled 47-0 in their Tri-County Conference showdown with Sand Creek last week, must regroup in a huny. A loss sets up a must-win game against Ottawa Lake Whiteford (3-4) to make the playoffs. Clinton 35, Whitmore Lake 14. Fowlerville (6-1) at Williamston (7-0) -In essence, the Gladiators start the playoffs early with this tough game against a solid team similar to the ones they will face deep in the postseason.

Can you f I ' decipher | Dan O'Halloran's referee signals on the ice? A-t ikiSet* M a k in g t h e r ig h t q II O'Halloran is Michigan's only full-time NHL referee BY JASON DEEGAN The Livingston Community News Dan O’Halloran gave up competitive hockey nearly three decades ago. Yet there he was last June, skating with the world’s best hockey players at the 2007 Stanley Cup Finals between the Anaheim Ducks and Ottawa Senators. O’Halloran, a Brighton resident, was part of “the third team on the ice” - the officiating crew. It was the pinnacle of an officiating career that began when he was 7 years old working youth hockey games around his hometown of Essex, Ontario. ‘To see the Stanley Cup handed to the players was pretty awesome. The whole mood in the building was special,” O’Halloran recalled when the Ducks beat the Senators on June 6 for the prestigious trophy. O’Halloran, 43, is Michigan’s only full-time NHL referee. Like the players, making it to the Stanley Cup Finals is the goal of every official once a new season starts. O’Halloran began his 16th season in the NHL last week. “He worked the Stanley Cup because he outperformed the other guys (who are NHL referees),” said Stephen Walkom, NHL vice president-director of officials. “His performance dictated his selection.” O’Halloran played one year of elite junior hockey growing up in hockeycrazed Canada, but gave up the game at age 17 to focus on becoming a referee. He attended the University of Windsor, SEE RIGHT CALL, C2 How well do you know hockey? Match Dan O'Halloran's signals with what he's about to call.

Heads up: South Lyon soccer still unbeaten Header goals, defensive shutouts set Lions' pace BY JASON DEEGAN The Livingston Community News Waves of South Lyon soccer players storm in on goalie Brian Young during a recent practice. Executing a fast-paced drill, one Lion would dribble up the sideline then blast a crossing pass toward a handful of teammates, who attempt to head it into the net past Young. Balls fly in all directions. The Lions, ranked No. 7 in the Associated Press Division I coaches poll, are still unbeaten at 15-0-4, in large part to using their heads. South Lyon soccer coach Tracee Senter said 15 of this season’s 44 goals have come off headers. Junior Jake Green delivered game-winning goals against Hartland and Novi with his noggin. Brighton was the victim of three headers in one game alone. “We’ve scored more head goals than any team I’ve ever seen,” Senter said. The Lions are shattering records in their quest to become the best team in school history. They’ve never won a district championship but open next week’s Division I playoffs against Pinckney at 7 p.m. Tuesday. The district final, played 7 p.m. Saturday at Novi’s Meadows Stadium, could feature a third rematch with the Novi Wildcats. The Lions, who tied Novi 0-0 Tuesday, were aiming to clinch at least a share of the Kensington Valley Conference championship with the Wildcats in their game against Howell Thursday (results were unavailable). South Lyon’s first KVC championship came in 2004, but that team faltered in the playoffs. “We definitely want to go further,” said South Lyon’s Danny Coppola, whose older brother, Kenny, scored a school-record 23 goals in 2004. “In my mind, we are good enough to go all the way to the (state) finals.” The Lions are known for SEE SOCCER,C2 South Lyon goalie Brian Young leaps to make a save during a recent drill in practice. He has set a single-season school record with 9'/j shutouts.

Senior Kyle Kaminsky owns the program’s single-season (15) and career (33) records for assists. He sets up headers with his free and corner kicks. “He just has a great touch on the ball,” Senter said. Young has set the singleseason (9.5) and career (12.5) marks for shutouts. Meanwhile, the goals have come from all over the field. Junior forward Adam Gentile has 12 of them, including a hat trick in a 3-2 win over Walled Lake Western Oct. 6. Senior Jim King and sophomore Jordan Selva have six apiece. Junior center midfielder Chris Kobayashi scored five goals before getting injured He’s recently returned to bolster the lineup. Even the defense has contributed. Senior captain Andy Ohanesian, who Senter believes is having an allstate season, has three goals and 12 assists. Coppola, who has six goals, broke two bones in his face attempting a header against Hartland last week, but plans to delay corrective surgery until the «IO^N South Lyon junior forward Ryan McFarland heads the ball during a recent practice.

E a g l e s , B u l l d o g s a r e s o a r i n g t h i s y e a r E q u e s t r i a n t e a m s h e a d i n g i n t o k e y w e e k e n d BY JASON DEEGAN The Livingston Community Nev/s Riding the momentum of their performances at regionals, both the Hartland and Brighton High School equestrian teams could come home as state champions this weekend. The Eagles won the Michigan Interscholastic Horsemanship Association’s Region D Division A championship last weekend by scoring a whopping 802 points, shattering the previous school record of 632 for a single meet. The Bulldogs also dominated their Division B re gional, outscoring secondplace Hemlock, 639-516. The two Livingston County programs begin their march for a state championship today through Sunday at the MIHA state meet in Midland. Hartland interim coach Lynn Rossetto said a state title is “no guarantee” but with 23 first-place finishes last weekend, the Eagles 'We have been determined to overcome the odds. (Adversity) just builds you stronger.' Lynn Rossetto, interim equestrian team coach for Hartland are clear favorites. They were second at state a year ago. “This is the strongest team in Hartland history. We are very confident,” Rossetto said. Every Eagle contributed at regionals, led by seniors Cady Scannell and Lauren Gaines with 105 and 101 points, respectively. Rossetto said the team has turned its adversity into a positive this fall. Three former coaches were suspended for two years by the MIHA just before the season started for allegations of bias and a lack of communication. “We have been determined to overcome the odds,” Rossetto said. “It (adversity) ju st builds you stronger. The kids respected those coaches from the start. The kids just rose to the occasion. They just practice and practice.” A balanced lineup is Brighton’s calling card, too. Coach Jerry Rans said the Bulldogs averaged 50-55 points in each class. “We compete in 17 classes, and we are pretty strong in 12 or 13 of them,” Rans said. Brighton senior Lisa Laske led all scorers with 113 points, followed by senior Emily Berger with 98, senior Kaitlin Wurtz with 89 and junior Jennifer Lane with 82. The Bulldogs face stiff competition from 12 other teams this weekend. “We stand as good a chance as anybody to place in the top two,” Rans said.

R IG H T CAL L F R O M C l Pro says it takes time to develop skills leaving before graduation as his officiating career flourished. After officiating hundreds of travel and junior hockey games, he moved up to the International Hockey League in the mid-1980s and later trained in the American Hockey League before his first NHL game, Pittsburgh vs. Anaheim, in 1995. O’Halloran said it takes time to develop the necessary skills to be a referee in the NHL. “Judgment is one of the biggest assets (you need). You get that from experience,” he said. “The more games you get, the better decisions you make.” O’Halloran’s skates are just as quick as his decision-making. Norm Kawaelde, a USA Hockey assistant supervisor, depends on O’Halloran to mentor young referees during clinics. “He emphasizes the skating. Dan is one of the best officials in the NHL as far as skating ability,” Kawaelde said. “He goes like the wind.” O’Halloran prides himself on his ability to communicate with players and coaches to avoid conflict. “He’s easy to communicate with,” Walkom agreed. “He doesn’t take himself too seriously and that’s important.” O’Halloran estimated he H ocke y trivia answers: 1 - Washout. 2 -Slashing. 3 - Charging. 4 - High sticking. 5 - Delayed penalty. 6 - Hooking. 7 - Cross checking. 8 - Elbowing. 9 - Interference. worked 73 regular-season and nearly 30 pre- and postseason games last year all around the league. He loves the job and hates the travel. “Getting to the games is the biggest part of my job,” he says. “You miss birthdays, anniversaries. It can be hard on the family.” O’Halloran, his wife, Michelle, and son, Devin, moved to B ritto n from Buffalo, N.Y., a decade ago to live closer to the University of Michigan Medical Center, where Devin had a liver transplant at age 5. Devin, now a healthy senior at Brighton High School, plays roller hockey for the BuUdogs and also officiates youth hockey games in the Kensington Valley Hockey Association. Devin O’Halloran said he and his dad share feedback when they attend one anothe r’s games. “He asks me if he missed anything (on the ice),” Devin O’Halloran said. “He likes to hear feedback. I help where I can.” Dan O’Halloran said it takes a special person to be able to handle the constant criticism from the NHL players, coaches and crowds. “It’s not for everybody,” he added. He’s secure enough to admit he doesn’t always get it right, either. He recalled a game where Detroit Red Wing Thomas Holmstrom took a slash no official saw and went to the ice bleeding. O’Halloran says he waved his arm to signal to the bench to allow a trainer on the ice but hadn’t called a penalty. He looked over to see a guilty Bruce Gardiner of Columbus step into the penalty box, thinking O’Halloran had caught him in the act. Problem solved. “Sometimes you get lucky. You’re in the right place at the right time,” O’Halloran admitted. “You hope experience puts you in those places.” Jason Deegan can be reached at jdeegan@ iivingstoncommunitynews.com or at 810-844-2012.

FRIDAY, O C TO B ER 19, 2007 www.mlive.com T r o o p e r p ic k e d f o r s c h o o l p o s t Howell trustees will consider second vacancy Oct. 22 to make board whole BY TOM TOLEN News S ta f f Reporter I The person appointed this week to a position on the Howell Board of Education, Michael Yenshaw, is a 22-year veteran of the Michigan State Police. Yenshaw was chosen from a field of 17 applicants to fill a vacant seat created by the resignation of Mary Jo Dymond l ^ t month. “I plan on bringing in integrity, also common sense,” says Yenshaw, who had applied for an opening last spring. Yenshaw’s appointment is one of two the board will make this month. Many of the same applicants will be considered for appointment to a second vacancy - that of Sue Drazic - when the board meets again Monday night. Yenshaw, assigned to the Brighton post for the past 16 years, is married to Mimi Yenshaw, a Livingston County native and supervisor at the Livingston County Central Dispatch-911 office. The Yenshaws have lived in Oceola Township for 10 years and have two daughters who attend Hutchings Elementary School. He also has a stepdaughter who graduated from Howell High School in 2005. Yenshaw earned a bachelor of science degree in criminal justice from the University of Detroit in 1983. Although not in the military himself, his father was a career military man, and he grew up at Wurtsmith Air Force Base near Oscoda. Yenshaw was the board’s clear choice for the first vacancy winning the seat on the initial ballot. Applicant Mark Michaels finished second in the balloting. There are again 17 hopefuls seeking the last remaining vacancy but some of the names on the fist have changed. Vicki Fyke, a strong critic of the school district, resubmitted her name for the second seat, but withdrew from consideration prior to the 3 p.m. Hiesday deadline. Others who applied include Kimberly Shumaker, Matthew Cecora, Jim Pratt, Carolyn Arking, William Harvey, Sharon Van Ord, Daniel Ponciriest, Dennis Kennecfy, Anne Barker, Douglas Moore, Janet Shoemaker, Mark Michaels, Herbert Bursch, Christopher Drake, Angela Elizando, Olaf (Kris) Kauserud and Lyle Dickson.

Chris Williams Owner saw past damage to visualize its restoration BY LEANNE SMITH News S ta f f Reporter There were raccoons in the attic, a woodchuck living under the floorboards and wild grapevines growing in through the windows and up the walls, but to Chris Williams, the centuiy-old East H a n ^ School was a thing of beauty. “It was the nostalgia and the historical value,” he said. “And it had a lot of character.” Williams has worked painstakingly to preserve its original character as a oneroom, wooden-fiiame schoolhouse after buying the building in 1992. The work he did on what has become his home is truly restoration, not renovation. “These little schools are dropping by the wayside,” said Williams, a naturalist with the Kensington Metropark Fhrm Learning Center. “Most of them - unless someone takes them over - will soon be gone.” Williams has kept intact the 25-footby- 30-foot main schoolroom that was SEE SCHOOL, A4 F o n d m em o r ie s o f th e H a n d y T o w n sh ip S c h o o l Handy Township Fractional School District No. 1 was formed in the winter of 1838-39. Its one-room schoolhouse is now a private home, but up to 1950 it was where many rural Fowlerville students learned reading, writing and arithmetic and made lasting friendships. Here are recollections from some of them. Hattie (Wegienka) Daly, 81, Fowlerville "We had big Christmas celebrations every year. Men would borrow boards from the lumberyard to build a big stage all across the back end of the building. We had the best Christmas programs. "We were up in the world for a country school. We had paper towels in our outhouses. They were kept at Roy Holt's. He was the director o f the school. When we were out of towels, it was my job to stop by his house on the way to school to pick more up. We'd get one roll at a time." Bob Kunde, 70, Webberville "There was a hill in the back we slid down in the winter. In the spring, water would get real deep in a swampy spot at the bottom. Unbeknownst to our teacher, we would build rafts and go rafting.

After they had thenfirst son, Marty, when she was 20, she became agoraphobic, fearful of being in open or public places. “I was physically and emotionally housebound,” says Clairmont. “It all started with an anxiety attack. I didn’t know what I had experienced, but the cycle of fear had begun.” Clairmont’s physician sent her to a group called Recovery Inc. and she attended two meetings each week for almost a year. She learned how to deal with her feelings and was asked to become a group facilitator. She says it took years for her to completely get over the agoraphobia, but what helped was getting involved in the Grace Baptist Church, now called Community Bible Church in Genoa Township, where she remains a member.

B1 A2 THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS FRIDAY, OCTOBER 19, 2007 COURTESY. LINDHOUT ASSOCIATES Architects provided a bird's eye view of planned changes to the home at 915 N. Michigan Ave., Howell. The house's circular drive will be kept, with the two entry points moved closer together and room for seven parking spots at the front of the building. An additional 30 spots will be available behind the building, just north and south of the proposed addition, with the possibility of eight more parking spaces once the carriage house is renovated and opened as office space. Traffic will exit onto Michigan Avenue and Thompson Street. M a n s i o n g e t s s p e c i a l u s e H ow e ll p lan p an e l a llow s offices, m o re p a rk in g BY LAU R IE HUMPHREY The Livingston Community News Following five years of controversy and even more of uncertainty, Howell officials finally Imow what lies ahead for the home at 915 N. Michigan Ave., known as the McPherson Mansion. Monday, the Howell Planning Commission voted 6-1 to award a special land use permit to Roger and Kelly Myers, Brighton-based attorneys looking to move their real estate law offices into the former historic home built for William McPherson Sr. in 1915. In a similar vote, commissioners approved the final site plan that would allow an addition of 3,400 square feet and up to 37 parking spots on the 3.65-acre property, situated three blocks north of the city’s downtown. The addition was requested by the Myers, whose longterm goals include expanding their practice. In the short term, they would sublease space to other professionals. The Myers, with Howell developers Steve and Patty Gronow, bought the property last July for an undisclosed amount. The list price at the time of the sale was about $670,000, down fi’om the original $1.5 million price tag. While repairs began at the site more than a month ago, work had focused on damage control to the structure until the Howell Planning Commission could review and approve a plan. With the recent approval, the couple has one year to begin construction on the addition. “Now we have to decide if we will commence with the addition” within the next 30 days, or wait until spring, said Kelly Myers. The couple’s Brighton lease is up June 30, 2008, at which time the eightmember staff at Myers & Myers will move to Howell. “It’s actually ready to be moved into now,” said Kelly Myers of the building’s interior. Planning Commissioner and City Council Member Dawn Cooper was supportive of efforts made by the Myers to preserve the house’s historic character in it’s design and replacement of ornamental features, but she shared some concerns during Monday’s meeting. “I don’t like the size of the addition, it’s too big,” she said prior to voting in favor of the plan for 26 offices, a library, upper and lower floor conference spaces, a basement gym, full-size kitchen, six bathrooms and more. She later added, “but I would not want (the building) to sit there any longer and fall apart.” A team of professionals hired for their appreciation of historic worth is working on the project. For that, and the efforts they have made thus far, many of the commissioners thanked the Myers for striving to make improvements that respect the home’s architecture and the proximity of surrounding houses. Project sketches show the new section of the building will mimic many qualities of the original structure including matching rooflines and similar pitches. Building ma- Work to the historic Howell home at 915 N. Michigan Ave. began more than one month ago, but was limited to damage control. Contractors removed siding and will replace rotted wood caused by years of water infiltration. Boards were custom cut to match existing materials.

He also plans to reinstall copper gutters and downspouts, features that were original to the house, but had been removed in later years. Approval of the plan hinges on the applicant’s ability to address city staff concerns including additional landscaping to buffer surrounding neighbors, the need to prove drainage will not be an issue, a continued effort to integrate design elements and the need to keep the garage and carriage house on the property. Despite the Myers’ efforts. Commissioner Susan Copper could not get past the size of the addition; she cast the one dissenting vote. Calling the addition “unnecessary,” she questioned if the group simply wanted extra space to sublease offices so the income could offset the cost of building improvements and maintenance.

D o w n t o w n P i n c k n e y p l a n l o o k s t o f u t u r e O ct.22 hearing seeks resident input on comprehensive ideas BY LEANNE SMITH The Livingston Community News It’s most visible in the sidewalks, streetlights, planters, brick work and benches that helped revamp downtown Pinckney three years ago, but the village’s Downtown Development Authority doesn’t want to stop there. The group’s board of directors has drafted a plan to carry its revitalization efforts for the small town well into the future. Residents can give their input during a public hearing at 7:30 p.m. Monday at Village Hall, 220 S. Howell St. The Village Council likely will vote on the plan that evening. “Our current plan was put together so we could do the bonding for that streetscape project,” said Mary Jo Cartwright, DDA president. “This plan is more comprehensive. We’re looking at the next 10 or 20 years on the horizon.” Pinckney’s DDA district encompasses businesses and residences on M-36, County Road D-19 and Main Street from Pinckney Chrysler Dodge Jeep to just west of Marion Street. A law permitting DDAs was approved by the state Legislature in 1975. The groups are designed to correct and prevent deterioration, encourage historic preservation and acquire and sell properties in business districts. To accomplish this, DDAs are eligible for tax increment financing, which allows a percentage of the taxes for any new construction in their boundaries to be captured and used for improvements in their DDA districts. Projects in Pinckney’s new DDA plan include attracting new businesses, erecting signs that direct people to specific area locations and creating more downtown parking and non-motorized connector trails to the Lakelands 'Trail. The group also will continue an improvement program that helps residents or business owners in the DDA district improve their building facades. The program pays a 50 percent matching rebate or revolving loan up to $3,000 for materials only, Cartwright said.

Fire Department to give him a hero's funeral From News staff reports Drew Kmiecik always exceeded expectations. At 21, he lived longer than many diagnosed as children with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy - a form of the genetic disease that progressively degenerates muscle tissue. During his short life that ended Oct. 13, he became a beloved fixture in the Whitmore Lake area, where the Northfield Township firefighters said he was an inspiration for his positive attitude. Firefighters and community members are now planning to fulfill his final dream - a full firefighter funeral service, including a ride atop a fire truck during a memorial procession. “We’ve all pitched in together to get this just perfect - nothing but the best for Drew,” said Northfield Fire Lt. Terry McNeely, describing how crews practiced traditional color-guard rituals and buffed rescue vehicles in preparation for the ceremony that was scheduled for Thursday at the Shalom Lutheran Church in Pinckney. Kmiecik began volunteering at the fire department in 2004, becoming such a regular that firefighters dubbed his automated wheelchair “Tanker 23.” He was soon named an honorary firefighter for his contributions - chronicling the department’s history and other special administrative projects. Northfield Fire Chief Bill Wagner said Kmiecik was hospitalized two weeks ago because he was having difficulty breathing. He was close to returning home after surgery, but his health rapidly deteriorated, and he died at C.S. Mott Children’s Hospitals, Wagner said. The display in the department’s lobby, which Kmiecik put together each month, is now a memorial for him with pictures and keepsakes of his accomplishments. IN B R IE F B r ig h to n Band event to feature students The annual Brighton High School Band-O-Rama is 7 p.m. Tuesday at the Brighton Center for the Performing Arts, 7878 Brighton Road. All 240 members of the Brighton High School Marching Band will perform. H am b u rg Township Season extended for fall burning The time residents can burn leaves and yard waste in Hamburg Township is being extended by about two weeks this fall. Township ordinance allows fall burning only from Nov. 1-30, but requests from residents wanting more days prompted the Board of Trustees to unanimously agree on Tuesday that the season can begin immediately. Howell Chamber seeks parade marshal The Howell Area Chamber of Commerce Foundation, hosts of the annual Fantasy of Lights Parade, is seeking nominations for this y e a r’s grand marshal. Nominations should be submitted to Susan Lundin at the Howell Area Chamber of Commerce Foundation by fax at 517-546-4115, e-mail to slundin@howell.org, or by mail to 123 E. Washington St., Howell. Entries are due Oct. 24. L iv in g s to n C o u n ty Deputies voting on new contract Nearly 100 Livingston County Sheriff’s Department officers were to vote today and over the next several days on a new threeyear contract. For the first time, the employees would be contributing toward their own health insurance costs. The Preferred Provider Organization insurance would cost a family of two about $140 per month, and go up from there, based on the number of dependents. Sheriff Bob Bezotte said the contract will save the county money on health insurance. The new contract would give the officers pay raises of 2.5 percent this year, 2.75 percent in 2008 and 2.25 percent in 2009. It would be re troactive to Jan. 1. O ce o la T ow n sh ip Donations of trees, easement accepted Oceola Township trustees recently recognized two donations to the township. Todd Wyett, developer of Oceola Village Center, north of the Township Hall on Latson Road and south of M-59, will donate $12,000 worth of trees to be used along the outside property line to the re a r of Township Hall. The foliage will help cut wind shear and define the new soccer fields built at the back of the Township’s property. The second donation, a 60- acre land conservancy easement along Curdy Road at Latson Road, was given by H. Clare and Harold Salmon, a local family with township roots dating back more than 100 years. P in ckn e y Leaf pickup begins Oct. 23 in village The village will begin its fall curbside leaf collection 'Tuesday. Leaves will be collected Mondays and Tuesdays through Dec. 3. Leaves must be raked into the stree t in rows, one foot from the curb. Main Street residents should rake leaves in a row behind the curb. The village will temporarily suspend its bi-weekly brush pick-up program during leaf collection. The last brush pick-up before the service resumes on Dec. 10 is Monday. Details: 734-878- 6206. Bonds to be sold for utility projects Comerica Securities has been chosen by the Pinckney Village Council to issue approximately $380,000 in bonds for a project to extend sewer and water services east on M-36. Initial work on the effort to bring utilities to properties including the Pinckney post office has begun, said President Rebecca Foster. Visible signs of construction could start by mid-November if the weather holds, she said. The work is being paid for by special assessments made to the property owners.

The group operates independently but is governed by the Village Council. Whether its objecting to husbands and wives serving on the board together, to to granting facade grants to DDA board members, some council trustees do not fully support the group. 'Trustee Bob Stone has been adamant in his protest that the DDA uses taxpayers’ dollars to fund private enterprise and benefit a small segment of the community. Resident Eddie Fhson also has argued that the DDA has too much power in being able to apply for liquor licenses and buy or sell property. “Anytime tax money is being spent, there is concern and we always listen to what anyone has to say,” Cartwright said. “We’re all learning, but I think the majority of the residents understand what a valuable tool a DDA is not only to the village but to the whole community.” Leanne Smith can be reached at lsmith@ livingstoncommunitynews.com or at 810-844-2011.

Honorees included: Cathie Osdras, above left, Lou and Mary Morand, below, Cathy Capy, above right, and the Howell Public Schools. BY LAURIE HUMPHREY News S ta f f Reporter Former Howell High School teacher Cathy Capy said she made the four-hour roimd trip to Howell earlier this week to accept an award from the Livingston Diversity Council, because the honor was important to her. The award recognized her advisory work with students in last year’s debate over whether to include books with controversial subject matter in a curriculum for advanced English students. As adviser to the student’s Diversity Club, she also was at the center of a debate over the hanging of a rainbow flag that some community members objected to. Before presenting her with an award for Outstanding Work in Educational Leadership, Diversity Council vice president Vic Lopez praised Capy for her “professionalism as she worked with students in a real-life learning situation.” She was one of four award recipients honored diuing the 90-minute ceremony at The Opera House. The Livingston Diversity Council, formerly known as Livingston 2001 Diversity Council, has worked since 1988 to promote diversity of mind and inclusion of all people in the schools, the work place and the community. The group has worked to achieve this through community workshops, presentations at the schools and community gatherings. Steve Manor, Diversity Council president, said the end result, one he hopes to see in five years, is “a more diverse work force, a more diverse population and with that a growth in businesses, industry and jobs.” He believes diversity and the growth of a local economy are linked. “I’m not talking about going out and recruiting people. I’m talking about creating a welcoming and diverse community” where employers can set up shops, and all highly-educated employees can work and live without being considered an outsider, he b a l l o t E L E C T IO N 2 0 0 7__________ 4 v y in g fo r 3 seats, a n o th e r c a n d id a te runs for partial te rm BY LISA CAROLIN The Livingston Community News Residents of the South Lyon school district, including those Livingston County residents in Green Oak Township, will have a school board election on their Nov. 6 ballot. Douglas Curry, Frank Domanico, Ann Itoauer-Bizer and David Taulbee are running for three board of education seats. Each of those seats is for a six-year term. Donald E. Beagle is running for a partial term seat that ends Dec. 31, 2011. He was appointed to fill Jim Buchbinder’s term. Three of the four candidates running for 6-year terms are incumbents: Taulbee is currently the board president, Curry is the board treasurer, and Knauer-Bizer is a trustee. The candidates all place working with the state’s troubled economy as a major concern, and other issues include meeting new academic requirements while maintaining the district’s educational standards. Curry said he wants to plan for the implementation of the new high school graduation requirements. “These requirements will affect the entire K-12 educational program,” he said. “Adjustments in program rigor will have to be made so that our students will be able to successfully complete the new requirements and be prepared for the future educational endeavors that are required for success in the 21th century.” South Lyon Community Schools Board of Education ■ Name: Don Beagle.

Knauer-Bizer said a priority for her is keeping class sizes small while maintaining a strong curriculum is important to Don Beagle. Challenger Frank Domanico said that despite South Lyon’s high standards and reputation for award-winning excellence, he believes there is more to be done. “Parents, students and the community need to be heard, and their concerns addressed in a respectful and satisfying manner,” said Domanico. “As the student population grows, we’re finding some programs under- funded, and class sizes increasing. We must strive for 100 percent customer satisfaction.” David Taulbee, a 13-year member of the school board said fiscal management is key. “The only way any school district can survive is to watch what comes in and what goes out and not over spend money you don’t have,” he said. School board meetings in South Lyon are scheduled every other Monday at 7:15 p.m. at the Administration Building, 345 South Warren.

Candidates must meet the following statutory requirements. The candidate must be 18 years old, a U.S. Citizen, a Green Oak Charter Township resident for at least 30 days and registered to vote.

Sedlak, 10001 Silver Lake Road, Brighton Ml 48116 by not later than Thursday November 1, 2007 5:00 PM. 22322484)1 explained. Capy, who left Howell to teach at the Muskegon Technical Academy, continues her work against bias and prejudice. She has drawn from her Howell experiences to teach her current students the good things happening in Howell, and the groups that are working to make the community better for everybody. “They had such a bad image of Howell,” said Capy referencing a former Ku Klux Klan leader who once lived in the area and the racist displays that happened years ago, but continue to be connected with community. “I’ve been able to bring to them the positive things that this community and its students are doing.” When asked why she would travel so far, especially four days before her wedding, when the award could have been mailed to her, Capy replied: “This was important to me because I wanted to prove that I left on my own merit.” She believes her presence also reinforces the fact that the Howell High School job was not just another employer to put on a resume. ‘“This was not a stepping stone for me.” The Diversity Council gave out three other awards: ■ Cathie Osdras, sales director of the Brighton Holiday Inn, was honored for helping a victim of racism. After a local woman’s house was broken into and vandalized, Osdras and her team offered a place for the victim and her son to stay. ■ Lou and Mary Morand were honored for their years of service to the Livingston Diversity Council as board members and volunteers. ■ The Howell school district was honored for its work in educational leadership in the field of diversity and inclusion. Board of Education President Phil Westmoreland and Superintendent Chuck Breiner accepted the award on behalf of the district.

Brighton library hires new director W h ite Lake T ow n sh ip Library pro fe s s ion a l takes th e he lm BY LISA CAROLIN The Livingston Community News The Brighton District Library has selected Nancy Johnson as the new director of the library. Johnson was selected by the board of the library last week. She has been working as the director of the White Lake Township Library for the past five years and worked as a professor of library science at Wayne State University. Ed Rutkowski, who has been acting as interim director since Charlene Huget retired from the position in June, will serve as assistant director. He had been working as head of adult services for the last six years. “I’m very excited and looking forward to working with Nancy Johnson and defining just what the position will mean and how it will work best with the needs of the library and the community,” says Rutkowski. He says the staff will take a look at the adult services department to determine whether or not to hire someone else. Both he and Johnson will begin their new positions Nov. 5. Huget had been the director of the library since 1997 and chose to retire to spend more time with her grandchildren as well as to do more volunteer work and travel.

The e-mail also was sent to limstee Wendy Day, and board president Phil Westmoreland. Fyke’s e-mail came the day after the board met to discuss an incident in which a 7-yearold student reported being sexually assaulted on a bus. Miller’s disclosure also included a response by Day, in which she noted concerns about Breiner. She wrote that she sought feedback from Fyke about “how the community might respond to a large payout to resolve the contract for Chuck.” She said her remarks were not intended to be public. Fyke was an applicant for an open board seat tWs week; she withdrew for a second seat. H OW E L L FROM A1 Chosen trustee optimistic plied. Shumaker, Arking, Van Ord, Fondriest, Barker and Shoemaker all submitted their names specifically for the latest vacancy. Several applicants in the first round mentioned the recent turmoil in the district over such incidents as the sexual assault of a young student on a school bus and the suggestion by one board member that is was time for Superintendent Chuck Breiner to leave the district. Other than safety concerns, Yenshaw said he has not formed an opinion on the May incident in which a 7-year-oldboy was sexually assaulted by two older boys on a school bus. “I haven’t been privy to any documents, and a legal firm was just appointed to (get to the bottom of it), so it will take time, but safety in the school district is paramount.” Yenshaw said he is keeping an open mind about how administrators handled that and other incidents that have brought controversy to the district. One citizen in particular, 'Vicki Fyke, has been the school district’s most vocal critic, but Yenshaw says he understands why Fyke and others have concerns. “I think she has legitimate concerns about the school district,” he says. “It’s just a matter of how you channel those concerns.” The bus incident was the latest in a series of episodes that have created unwanted headlines for the school district. Many believe the school district’s reputation has been tarnished by the controversies, but Yenshaw is optimistic. “I don’t feel our reputation is totally lost,” he says. “It is just a matter of making it a little bit better. We have a very fine school district.” Yenshaw will serve the remainder of Dymond’s term and said he intends to run for a full term next May. Local groups joining to support Howell schools Coalition gets behinij education leaders From News sta ff reports A group of Howell community leaders is forging a civic coalition to support the Howell Public Schools leadership following recent controversies facing the district. Mike Hall, owner of Cobb- Hall Insurance and a former school board member who has stayed active with the district with its educational foundation, is one of several leaders who met this week to get the ball rolling. Expected to be involved with the effort will be community leaders, business owners, associations and nonprofit groups, he said. “It will involve everybody who’s got a stake in our schools,” said Hall. “I think everybody in our community recognizes the value of what the Howell Public Schools has to offer.” The Howell district has been in the news recently for disputes between board members, criticism of its superintendent and the sexual assault of a 7-year-old on a school bus that has prompted the board to hire a law firm to investigate. Hall said a statement of support for the leadership of the schools is being drafted and that members of the group also may attend school board meetings as Mary Jo Dymond and Sue Drazic, who both resigned in recent weeks, are replaced. He said he has talked with at least two dozen business and community leaders who are interested working together support the district. F a c t s a n d t i m e l i n e a b o u t t h e E a s t H a n d y S c h o o l Although not in its original location, the East Handy School was Handy Township's first fractional school district. Here are some historical facts. ■ Established winter of 1838-39. ■ Original district boundaries were the north and east side of the Red Cedar River. Altered in spring 1839 to include northeast quarter of the township. ■ First board of school inspectors: John B. Fowler, Seymour Morton and Richard P. Bush. ■ First school building, erected in 1839, was a small log house. ■ First teacher was Angeline Adams. ■ First school report in October 1839 listed 43 students - 24 between 5-17 and 19 under 5 and over 17. ■ A frame school, built as an octagon on Hogback Road north of Grand River Avenue, replaced the log building in 1844. The school, called "The Round School," burned. ■ The current school building was constructed on Hogback Road, south of Grand River Avenue, about 1880. It was called Hogback Road School. ■ Teachers in the 1800s included Lucy King and Belle Horton. ■ Teachers in the 1930s and 1940s included Doris (Horton) Haire, Thelma (Horton) Finlan, Norma Hansen, Helen Calkins Allen, Shirley Lutz, Laura Killinger, Pearl Street, Marie Clendenning. ■ School closed in the spring of 1950. ■ Building purchased by Chris Williams in 1992.

He refinished the original yellow pine floors, but didn’t fill in the holes where desks were once bolted into it. He also kept the 12-foot ceilings, an outdoor water pump and an original shelving unit with glass doors. “My father and a couple members of our school district built that,” said 81-yearold Hattie (Wegienka) Daly of Fowlerville, who started school there in 1932. “It was our library, and we were so proud of it.” The school had oak beams and a fieldstone foundation, but no electricity or plumb- COURTESX CHRIS WILLIAMS The old East Handy School house, just after it was purchased by Chris Williams who has since made it his home. At right, Williams shows an antique wood stove similar to the one that heated the school. ing. “Everyone kept asking me if I knew what I was doing,” Williams said. He did. “I always wanted an old farmhouse with property, and when I saw an ad in the paper for this school, I came out and took a look,” Williams said. “It was pretty rough. It looked like a lot of work.” A couple of weeks later, Williams saw the advertisement again and drove out to the one-acre site to take another look. “I contacted the real estate agent and took a third look,” he said. “I kept coming back. so I decided this is something I just had to try.” Williams has done most of the restoration himself and kept track of his progress with photos. “It’s so nice to drive by there and see the school restored,” Daly said. “It really makes me happy. It’s nice to know someone cares about our school.” During the work, Williams found a section of plaster on one inside wall that had been painted black and used as a chalkboard. It still had the tail end of cursive writing on it. He also found a baseball inside the walls when he unblocked a set of three windows. “Every time I dig in the yard, I find marbles,” he said. A two-room front addition added in 1940 to replace the school’s outhouses with boys’ and girls’ restrooms with chemical toilets has been turned into a bathroom and laundry room. He put a similar addition on the back of the house for the master bedroom and bath. Williams’ garage, built by him after he moved in, follows the plans for an 1860s carriage house so that it fits with the style of the school building. “This has been a real labor of love,” he said. “If I ever sell it, it will have to be to the right person - someone who appreciates its historical value.” Leanne Smith can be reached at lsmith@livingstoncommunitynew5. com or at810-844-2011. M E M O R IE S FROM A1 When paper towels were a real big deal had a ball. "In the summer, right before school started, all the farmers in the area that had kids in school would have a school board meeting. They'd go to Walter Tomion's Dairy in town and get ice cream for all the kids. It was a big treat." Margaret (Reyhl) Skym, 82, Fowlerville "We had a big round furnace for heat. In the winter, we'd all take our books and cuddle around it for our lessons. The stove had steam reservoirs and we would bring soup for lunch and stick it in those reservoirs to warm it up." "Every spring all the kids from all the country schools would meet out at the fairgrounds for a play day, kind of like a field day. We'd play baseball and I'd pitch." Doris (Sharpe) Linman, 87, Fowlerville "Every Halloween, the girls' outhouse would get tipped over as a prank. It was wooden. The boys' outhouse was brick. No one could tip that one over. "I wish they'd never gotten rid of the country schools. We had a closeness that kids nowadays don't have. We were one big family." (Linman later became a teacher at Briggs School, another of Handy Township's one-room schools). Doris (Horton) Haire, 93, Fowlerville (Haire, a teacher in the early 1930s, died Sept. 21. She told the following to Phyllis Rennells, a Fowlerville District Library Archives volunteer.) "I started teaching school at age 18.1 had 30 students the first year and I was scared to death. It was quite a responsibility to be a teacher then. We built the fires, cut the grass and swept our own floors besides teaching the students." COURTESY, CHRIS WILLIAMS Members of the 1948-49 class at the East Handy School, also called the Hogback Road School, included, front row from left, Fred Reyhl, James Canton and Jerry Laughlin; middle row from left, Ardis Lange and John Chase; and back row from left, teacher Pearl Street, Jack Jensen, Dean Kelley, Bob Kunde, Danny Knight and Jerry Knight. This was one of the school's last classes. C L A IR M O N T FROM A1 Now a speaker for Women of Faith, she also is a publisheiJ author her experience at churches, camps, and to Christian women’s groups around Michigan. Eleven years ago, she became a speaker for the group Women of Faith. She is gone more than 30 weekends every year, addressing audiences of 10,000 to 20,000. “It’s an outreach to women of all denominations,” says Clairmont. “Women make significant contributions in all levels of society, and we celebrate who they are. Women of Faith is a Christ-centered organization meant to fan the flame of their faith.” Jennifer Long, events marketing supervisor for the Texas-based Women of Faith, calls Clairmont “one of the most influential female speakers of our time. “She incorporates her humor and reality into a relateable talk that women are changed by,” Long says. “She shares openly about her life struggles and her life triumphs and truly impacts women. What is so incredible is that she was an agoraphobic and now God has helped deliver her so she can speak in front of thousands of women, who are energized and changed by what she shares.” Most of Clairmont’s speeches take place in large arenas in big cities around the country. “It’s a great joy for me - who couldn’t go to a grocery store - to now stand in front of thousands of people,” says Clairmont. “I was a fragile, wounded person. You can’t circumvent fear. You have to walk through the middle of it. It took me a lot of time, a lot of people and a lot of reading to get through it.” She has been married to Les Clairmont for 45 years. “I used to travel with her a lot but don’t any more due to health problems, but it works out just fine,” says her husband. “Patsy is real and to the point when she speaks, and I I’m very proud of her. There is a lot of give and take, and no such thing as 50-50. Marriage is 100-100.” Patsy and Les Clairmont can occasionally be found at the book store. His Bible & Book House in downtown Brighton owned by their son and daughter-in-law, where Patsy Clairmont enjoys reading books to children. Clairmont became an author in 1991 when her first book “God Uses Cracked Pots,” a humorous slant on women’s emotions, was published. “I received thousands of calls in response to the book and learned to edit my own work,” says Clairmont, who has now written 25 books, including an autobiography and some children’s books. “I have always loved children and children’s books and collected them.” Clairmont’s latest book is “Dancing Bones, Living Lively in the Valley.” “It’s about the fact that you learn the most in the low places of life,” she says. “That’s when you have the deepest insight and compassion and learn who God is.” Lisa Carolin can be reached at lcarolin@ Iivingstoncommunitynew5.com or at 810-844-2010.

The initiative will allow business and property owners in the district to apply for funds to improve their building facades. Reimbursements for half of total costs, with a maximum of $10,000 for front facades, $5,000 for side facades and $2,500 for rear facades, wiU be granted on a first-come, first-served basis, said Nathan Voght, chairman of the Howell Main Street and DDA Design Committee. An allocation of $50,000 for the first year is ready for distribution pending City Council approval, ejqiected on Oct. 22. Interested property owners must submit an application to the Main Street manager’s office at the National City Bank, 207 N. Michigan Ave. Submissions will be reviewed by the Howell Main Street and DDA board, with approval given to applicants who meet Uie program’s standards, Voght said. “Basically, we are rewarding owners that are going to do historic improvements the right way,” he said. Successful applicants wiU need to hire an architect, submit design plans and work with a contractor recognized by the state for historical renovation, which could cost up to $50,000 for a total storefront reconstruction. Finished products also must win approval from independently paid inspectors before reimbursement is made. Voght hopes the grant program will “be a catalyst for significant fa^de improvements.” Likening it to “a domino affect,” he believes one improvement will get other property owners “thiifidng about your own property.” To learn more about the program, call Mindy Arnold at 517-545-4240.

Galaxy manufactiu-es products for metal-cutting machines, remanufactures grinding and polishing systems, and designs testing systems - primarily for the auto industry. The firm expects to double its staff within a year with the expansion, going from 25 employees to 50 in engineering, customer service and machining. “It 1^ enable us to diversify into the medical market by using existing technology to create new jobs,” says Galaxy President Fred Schoville. “We’re taking the technology we know and adapting it to medical products.” In order to accomplish that, the company has applied for, and expects to receive, a $200,000 Community Development Block Grant fixim the state to broaden its product line into medical applications for both home and hospital use. “We’re expecting approval,” says Fred Dillingham, the Livingston County Economic Development Council’s executive director, who assisted the company in the process. The Michigan Economic Development Corp. will make the final decision on the application for the grant, which is actually a loan, Dillingham says. The company already has purchased medical patents in order to accomplish its objective. Galaxy has invested Prototypes of the medical products, to be placed in five independent living facilities in the Brighton and Ann Arbor areas, are expected to be ready for testing by January. about $200,000 of its own money in the initiative and plans on spending another $250,000 to $300,000. Prototypes of the medical products, to be placed in five independent living facilities in the Brighton and Ann Arbor areas, are expected to be ready for testing by January. “We want to make sure the product is what they need and to get feedback on ease of use,” Schoville says. The company hopes to go to market by the second quarter of 2008,” he says. Schoville gives Dillingham much of the credit for helping his company and others in the county improve their positions in the marketplace. “Dillingham has been wonderful with us. His staff has gone out of their way,” he says.

It’s time for the facility to catch up, said officials, who have decided to go to voters Nov. 6 for a new library on Dexter-Pinckney Road that’s nearly six times bigger than the existing facility on Mower Road. The $4.5 million the library seeks would cost the owner of a $200,000 home an additional $90 the first year and approximately $72 each year after that for the life of the 21-year bonds. Although the library’s service area includes parts of Marion and Unadilla townships, only voters in Putnam Township, including the village of Pinckney, will vote. If approved, the first payment would show up on residents’ December 2008 tax bills. “I’d really like to think we can afford to have a library that’s going to shine and give this community sometfrmg positive to go on,” said Kate Pratt, a Putnam Township resident and patron who’s leading the library campaign. “It’s my money, too. I’m not asking anyone for something I’m not willing to pay for myself.” Because the area has no community center or recreation center, the library has become a magnet for families looking for fun, people needing computers to look for jobs and update resumes, students taking online classes and senior citizens and organizations wanting a place to meet, said Hope Siasoco, library director. “We have to send people away now because we only have room for four public computers,” Siasoco said. “It’s common to see people using our wireless Internet access while sitting in their cars in the parking lot because there’s no room here.” The proposed 18,000- Low wall Community Room This is a proposed floor plan for the new 18,000- square-foot Pinckney Community Public Library on the Nov. 6 ballot. Voters in Putnam Township and the village of Pinckney will vote on the $4.5 million bond proposal. SONIA L GOTTFRIED, THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS square-foot Ubrary on six acres in front of Pinckney Community High School would replace the existing 3,000-square-foot facility built 13 years ago. It would be about 1,000 square feet bigger than the Hamburg Township Library on Merrill Road and includes a 6,800-square-foot adult services area, a 1,300- square-foot community room and expanded areas for children and teens. While she hasn’t heard residents dispute the need for a bigger library, Pinckney Village President Rebecca Foster said she has heard concerns about the timing of the proposal in relation to the state’s soft economy and questions about why the new building is so big. “We put a lot of time and effort into figuring out how to be a library that not only answers the needs of the community now, but in times to come,” Siasoco said. The library board spent two years studying its needs, said Joan McCloskey, treasurer of the library’s board of directors. That included focus groups, community meetings and consultation with architects and consultants who work specifically on libraries. The board hopes to build a “green” facility that would use recycled materials and equipment designed to keep utility and operating costs in check, she said. The land, as well as the fees for the consulting, will be paid for out of the library’s reserve funds. Those funds would be replaced when the library sells its current building and 1.3 acres, which are primarily wetlands and not feasible for a library addition, McCloskey said. The board has not determined what it will do if this proposal fails and is focusing on a positive campaign, Pratt said. “We need this so badly,” she said. “The people in this community are worth a libraiy like this.” Leanne Smith can be reached at hmith@ livingstoncommunitynews.com or at 810-844-2011.

JAMIE CHARBENEAU-PISELLA.THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS Katie and Todd Hallett of Genoa Township operate the Web site PersonalHomeMakeover.com, designed to be an affordable way for homeowners to get remodeling ideas.

Personal Home Makeover may be the answer. Genoa Township-based architect Todd Hallett, who also has home-building experience, and his wife, Katie, who does the company’s sales and marketing, have a Web site that anyone can access at www.PersonaIHomeMakeover. com. “Some homeowners would like to move, but can’t sell,” says Todd Hidlett, who creates custom redesign sketches of a home’s exterior for $129.95. “While they wait, we help them live more comfortably and make their homes more attractive. “People send me photos of the Tiefore,’ describe what they want for the ‘after’ and submit a realistic budget, and I give them a custom-designed sketch. It gets them started, and when it comes to home redesigning, that’s half the battle.” The Halletts have had an architectural design firm for the last couple of years. Katie Hallett says they started Personal Home Makeover in September because of the large number of people who can’t ford to move or can’t sell their homes. “A lot of people are getting into remodeling to make their house more competitive in the resale market or just to make their house look nicer,” says Katie Hallett. Once accessing the Web site, an interested homeowner can send the Halletts a picture of their home, and Personal Home Makeover sends them a sketch of how to improve the home’s appearance for the aforementioned cost. “If they want to move forward from there, we can provide them with construction drawings and referrals to remodelers,” says Katie Hallett. “We can work with them on interior flow plan renovations to change their floor plan or add a room or finish a lower level. Our services vary for each job.” Katie Hallett has lived in Livingston Coimty for 12 years. She met Todd when she woriced for Delcor Homes in Milford, a building company at which he was the president. He moved to Livingston County when they got married five years ago. “We love Livingston County, and it’s been growing in leaps and bounds for several years,” says Katie Hallett. “It’s a wonderful community, and we’re raising our kids here, and wouldn’t want to be anywhere else. “Todd and I feel fortunate to be able to do what we love doing - helping people and growing our business at the same time.” Lisa Carolin can be reached at karoiin® iivingstoncommunitynews.com or at 810-844-2010. 2227985-01 F A L L C L E A N - U P S P E C I A L S !

In spite of having a crowd of 17 people apply for appointment to fill an opening, the board listened to each candidate, asked follow-up questions and made a clear selection on just one ballot - all in just a little more than two hours. Well done. Now they get to do it again Monday to fill a second opening. Let’s hope the public discussion takes a different tack the second time around. I was disappointed with the candidate comments earlier this week. As each candidate stood to make a brief statement before the board, I heard way too much about business expertise and not enough passion for education. I understand that public education is in one heck of a fix when it comes to funding these days. And I know that local school boards are making hard decisions about getting the most educational bang for the buck. But, it doesn’t require an MBA to be able to make sound decisions on a local school board. If it were up to me - and it is not - I would take seven people with a deep commitment to public education over seven people who know how to create a balance sheet any day of the week. Michael Yenshaw, the State Police trooper who was picked to fill the board’s first vacancy, said his greatest strength was his common sense. That’s something that will serve any school board member well. Far more important than a broad understanding of international business is a deep understanding of how important local schools are to the people they serve. All public school districts - and this one in particular - need level-headed leaders who will listen carefully, question the status quo and make decisions based on what’s best for the most students. A thick skin comes in handy, too. Maybe the second time around the candidates will loosen up and let the public see them as real people. A few other observations from the Howell school board meeting: Biggest missed opportunity: One candidate clearly missed the point when asked the open-ended question, “Tell me about yourself.” Instead of learning something personal or something that might give people real insight into a potential public official.... all we heard was more blather about business savvy and higher education credentials. Best suggestion of the night: Not from a candidate, but from board Vice President Jeannine Pratt, who said there might be value in making three board members available for the hour before regular board meetings to talk informally with the public. She said a similar informal meeting with high school students has been very productive. This is a good sign from a board that needs to find new ways to connect with constituents. Most incredulous comment of the night: “We need to repair the reputation of the school district and I have the leadership skills and the public relations skills to do that.” - Vicki Fyke, one of the district’s harshest critics.

Michigan farmers hope to change that by cultivating a homegrown crop. “More than 80 percent of Americans don’t Imow what a chestnut even looks like, let alone what one tastes like,” said Mike LaFever of Tyrone Township. “Most people think of a horse chestnut or a buckeye, but the sweet chestnut is completely different.” The LaFever family has Livingston County’s only large chestnut orchard, with 350 trees on nearly 70 acres in northeastern Livingston SEE CHESTNUTS, 83 PHOTOS:JAMIE CHARBENEAU-PISEUATHE UVINGSTON COMMUNEPi’ NEWS The late Ken LaFever planted the first chestnut trees in the family's orchard in the late 1990s.

I S : H o b b y b lo s som ed in to 2 n d c a re e r A hobby that started with a few chestnut trees and a u-pick blueberry business turned into a successful second career in farming for Ken LaFever. The 81-year-old Tyrone Township man died Oct. 13 in Grand Blanc’s Genesys Regional Medical Center from injuries suffered in a twovehicle crash a week earlier. Cremation has taken place. A memorial service is set for 1 p.m. Saturday at Hope Lutheran Church, 7355 Silver Lake Road, Linden. Speaking at the service will be Dennis Flilbright, a Michigan State University plant pathology professor and adviser to Chestnut Growers Inc., a farm cooperative of which LaFever was a member. “I call him Mr. Chestnut,” said LaFever’s son, Mike, about Fhlbright. “He brought a lot of people out here to see my dad’s trees.” LaFever started on the ground floor of the sta te ’s program to make sweet chestnuts a viable Michigan crop. His bounty of 1,600 pounds, many of which were harvested by neighbors following his accident, was his best ever, his son said. -Leanne Smith a R e s id e n t s w i t h o u t in s u r a n c e m i g h t b e e l i g ib le f o r f r e e m a m m o g r a m s Early detection increases treatment options BY U S A CAROLIN News S ta f f Reporter October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, and residents of Livingston County who are over age 40 and don’t have insurance that covers mammograms might be eligible for fi'ee mammograms. A mammogram is an X-raybased image that has been proved to detect a majority of breast cancer. According to the American Cancer Society, regular mammography is the most effective screening test for the early detection of breast cancer available to women today. “We have two offices in Livingston County offering the Title 15 program, free mammograms provided by the state of Michigan for those who quality,” says Phyllis Bennett, physician reimbursement representative with Livingston Obstetrics and Gynecology. One of those offices is adjacent to the St. Joseph Mercy Livingston Hospital in Howell on Byron Road and a second office in the Woodland Health Center on Grand River Avenue in Genoa Township. “In addition to being over 40 and not having proper insurance, a woman must also meet certain income guidelines to qualify.” Bennett says the Title 15 program began about seven years ago, and that Livingston County Obstetrics and t Gynecology sees up to 80 pa- - tients every year who qualify for free mammograms. “It’s no secret that early L detection saves lives and increases treatment options,” says Tamara Rummel, area executive director of the SEE BREAST CANCER, 83 B2 T H E L IV IN G S T O N C O M M U N IT Y N E W S F R I D A Y , O C T O B E R 1 9 , 2 0 0 7 L I V I N G S T O N IN S I G H T A masked man sitting on the Power's Fiowers fioat tosses candy to eager kids.

Breast cancer ranks third among cancer deaths in women in Michigan (after lung and colon cancer) and second in the nation (after lung cancer). It is the most frequently diagnosed cancer among Michigan women. According to Kady Davenport, communications specialist for the local chapter of the American Cancer Society, during the past decade, an average of 80 women were newly diagnosed with breast r cancer each year in Livingston County. Between 2000 and 2004, there were an average of 16 deaths per year in the county due to breast cancer. Early detection through mammograms and clinical breast exams remain the most effective weapons against breast cancer according to the Livingston County Department of Public Health. The Michigan Cancer Consortium recommends monthly breast self exams for women age 20 and older. Women should report any breast change promptly to their health care provider.

PHOTOS: JAMIE CHARBENEAU-PISELLA.THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS Jared Peterson, 13, helps Mike LaFever pick up chestnuts in LaFever's Tyrone Township orchard. The easiest way to harvest is to pick them up after they've fallen from the tree. Once they are harvested, left, chestnuts, which mold easily, must be dried in racks like those used by the late Ken LaFever. C H E ST N U T S FRO M B1 Allure of nut goes far beyond roasting County. The operation is part of Chestnut Growers Inc., a 37- member cooperative of Michigan growers who produce and sell the nuts. MUce LaFever cultivated the orchard with his father, Ken, who died Oct. 13 at age 81. “Every year we get one or two larger growers of 100 trees or more,” said Dennis Fhlbright, a Michigan State University plant pathology professor and adviser to Chestnut Growers. “We’re hoping to open up a lot of possibilities.” People today associate chestnuts with a blight brought to New York by imported Chinese chestnuts at the beginning of the 20th century. By 1940, more than 3.5 billion of the once prolific American chestnut trees had been destroyed. That chestnut, a forest tree valued more for its wood them its small nuts, is much different than the orchard trees grown for the culinary market today, Flilbright said. “The nuts from orchard trees taste the same and look the same, but they’re bigger and that’s better,” he said. “The sweetness of the nut is always what amazes people.” Ken LaFever started the orchard 12 years ago after retiring from 43 years with Detroit Gauge & 'Tool. “I wanted to come out where there was a little more room and pursue my interests and one was growing plants,” he said in an interview before his death. “I tried peach trees. They didn’t work. I tried plums. They didn’t work. The deer ate Sweet chestnuts Roughly 80 percent of all Americans have never eaten a chestnut, but Michigan State University and a handful of growers, including Tyrone Township's LaFever family, hope to change that. The chestnut could become a promising crop for farmers. ■ The sweet chestnut should not be confused with the horse chestnut (buckeye) or water chestnut. In fact, horse chestnuts are not edible. ■ Chestnuts thrive in acidic soil, not alkaline soils, such as limestone. ■ Chestnut trees can reach heights of 150 feet. ■ It takes five to eight years for trees to begin producing chestnuts and can take 12 to 15 years to reach a production goal of 30 pounds of nuts per tree. ■ There are about 80 American chestnuts in a pound, compared to about 15 to 25 colossal chestnuts in a pound. ■ Chestnuts have only 4 percent to 5 percent fat, compared to pecans, which have 71 percent fat, or hazelnuts, which have 62 percent fat. ■ Chestnuts are starchy, not oily. Their high carbohydrate content (78 percent) makes them more like a grain, such as wheat. ■ Chestnuts are very perishable and must be stored in a cool, moist environment, such as a refrigerator crisper. ■ Chestnuts must have their shells punctured or scored with a sharp knife before cooking or they will explode like popcorn. ■ Chestnuts can be roasted in the microwave at 70 percent power for 2 to 3 minutes. ■ Roast chestnuts in the oven at 300 degrees for about 15 minutes. ■ Chestnuts also can be boiled and steamed and ground into flour. ■ Chestnut flour is naturally sweet and gluten free. It's the secret to many fancy French pastries. ■ Michigan chestnuts can be purchased from Chestnut Growers Inc.

Sources: Michigan State University, Chestnut Growers Inc. all my grapes.” Chestnuts seem to be working, as this year’s crop was about 1,600 pounds, twice the size as last year, Mike LaFever said. Chestnuts bloom in mid-summer and the flowers give way to spiny husks called burs, in which the chestnuts develop inside a dark brown shell. “It kind of looks like a wood floor,” said 13-year-old Jared Peterson, who helped with this year’s harvest. From mid-September to mid-October, the burs open and the chestnuts fall on the ground where they are picked up by hand. “That’s the simplest way to go,” Ken LaFever said. “But you have to stay on top of it or the deer get the nuts. Or the blue jays, or the squirrels, or the chipmunks, or some other varmint.” Because of their sugar and moisture content, chestnuts are susceptible to mold. Farmers are assisted in storage and distribution by MSU research farms in Clarksville and Jackson County. Limiting the chestnut to roasting doesn’t do the nut justice, said Flilbright, adding that it’s a tasty ingredient in soups, salads, stuffing, chili, hummus and desserts. “Once the nut is out of its shell, the possibilities are endlfess,” he said.

Tfie award, from the Residential Fire Safety Institute, was announced by Roy Marshall, president of the institute. The Brighton Area Fire Department was recognized for recording zero fire deaths during the previous year. Although only 20 percent of fires are residential, house fires result in 80 percent of fire fatalities. “'The RFSI is committed to reducing that number,” Marshall said. He attributed the lack of fire deaths in Brighton to education and fire prevention programs.

It’s called “LIVE outside the bottle: The Story of Alcoholism in America,” and it’s an educational program created to inform the public about alcoholism. “This exhibit is important because it minimizes and invalidates the myths about alcoholism,” says Dr. Michael F. Brooks, who practices family medicine, addiction medicine and psychiatry at Brighton Hospital. “We need to bring people up to snuff on this disease, and knowledge is power.” Brooks says the exhibit is effective in educating people because of its multimedia, interactive approach. He says it shows people the causes of alcoholism as well as the advances that have been made in treating it. “We have a disease that affects 18 million Americans and is the third leading cause of preventable deaths in our country,” says Brooks. “Only 15 percent of those people are seeking tre a tment because many Americans still feel that alcoholism is a moral weakness and not a disease. We have sound scientific evidence that places alcoholism as a brain disease with best outcomes being reached with a combination of therapy and medications.” The exhibit includes the misconceptions about the disease of alcoholism, the environmental and genetic causes of the disease, the physical and social consequences of it as well as the latest treatment options. Brighton Hospital is considered one of the top facilities for the treatment of alcoholism and other types of chemical addiction. The exhibit was created by Cephalon Inc., an international biopharmaceutical company in Pennsylvania and by Alkermes, Inc., a biotechnology company in Massachusetts.

Sources: Sfafe of Michigan, Michigan History Magazine. BY LEANNE SMITH The Livingstor) Community News Mosquito is the answer most Michiganders give when asked about the state’s official insect. The truth is, Michigan is only one of eight U.S. states without a state bug, and Pinckney Elementary School’s fourth-graders want to rectify that. They’re lobbying Lansing for a much prettier bug that does its best to put a dent in Michigan’s mosquito population. “The common blue damselfly is practically all over my house,” said 9-year-old Devin Bryant. “They’re practically all over Michigan.” Devin was one of a handful of students who made the case for a state insect to State Rep. Joe Hune, RHamburg Township, one day last week. The damselfly is a smaller, more delicate relative of the dragonfly. Like the dragonfly, it’s attracted to water, which Michigan has in abundance. But when it lands, the damselfly holds its wings parallel to its body, while the dragonfly extends its wings out to the side. “I’ve normally always liked dragonflies, but then I started thinking back to the damselfly,” said Andrew Wylie, 9, who came up with the idea of offering it as a state insect. “If we didn’t have it, there would be way more mosquitoes to bite us.” The plan to lobby for a state insect started when the students were third-graders and studied how state and local government works and how they could be involved. They came up with a lot of nominees for state insect before narrowing the field to the dragonfly, the damselfly, the tiger swallowtail butterfly and the Monarch butterfly- “Many other states have the Monarch, and we wanted Michigan to be different,” said Alyssa Griffith, 9. “That’s why we picked the damselfly. They’re also a good representative for Michigan.” Students sent letters about their idea to Hune, who was interested to hear more from his “constituents.” “I wanted them to convince me why we need a state insect and why it should be this one,” Hune said. “They did a good job.” Hune said he would promote the common blue damselfly to the Legislature, which must pass a bill the governor would have to sign into law before it can become the state insect. “We’re under a lot of pressure right now,” he said, referring to the Legislature’s difficulty in adopting a new state budget. “I can’t promise PHOTOS: LEANNE SMITH,THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS State Rep. Jo e Hune, R-Hamburg Township, left, listens to 9- year-old Pinckney Elementary fourth-grader Andrew Wylie's arguments about why the common blue damselfly should be Michigan's state insect. that there will be a hearing or that this has any chance of becoming a bill, but I’ll start the process.” Regardless, the lesson learned is a good one, said teacher Nancy Dickman. “The students learned there’s not an age limit to be involved in state government,” she said. “Their voice was heard as fourth-graders and that’s a positive step.” Leanne Smith can be reached at lsmith@ llvingstoncommunitynew5.com or at 810-844-2011. D e v e l o p e r ' s p l a n s m o v i n g f o r w a r d f o r u p s c a l e a t h l e t i c c l u b i n B r i g h t o n City staff looking at creating'corridor improvement district' BY TOM TOLEN The Livingston Community News Although the plans for an upscale athletic and fitness club at Brighton Towne Square-Brighton Towne Place at Chalhs Road and Grand River Avenue are rather complex, the plans continue to move forward with no “deal breaker” yet in sight. California-based developer Mark Murphy is proposing an athletic club and fitness cen- I ter in Brighton with a “country club” feel that could open in 2009. Murphy, of Brighton Land Development Co., is proposing a $20 million, 100,000-square-foot facility that he says would combine the best attributes of a fitness and wellness center, gymnasium and country club. “It’s a monumental project,” says Mayor Steve Monet. “If anybody can accomplish this, Mr. Murphy can.” “It’s complicated, it has (several) components,” Murphy says. “We just continue to work on it, we’re fine-tuning it.” But for the plans to come to fruition, Murphy and the city must agree on several conditions, including a land swap and creation of a Corridor Improvement District to pay for infrastructure improvements. A partnership with the Southeastern Livingston County Recreation Authority, whereby SELCRA could use the facilities for some of its programs, also is being explored. In the land swap, Murphy would deed over several acres of wooded property along 1-96 that the city wants to remain undeveloped, and the city would give Murphy a strip at the west end of the property that he could use for a retention pond. Murphy also may be required to pay a portion of the cost of a pump station and traffic signal upgrades. Murphy is asking the city to establish tax increment financing to reimburse him for the extension of Movie Drive and other infrastructure improvements, to help him obtain a redevelopment district liquor license and for a three-year tax break on his assessment. The Brighton City Council voted Oct. 4 to direct staff to investigate the creation of a corridor improvement district and a redevelopment district liquor license. As proposed, the athletic club and fitness center would be just outside the Brighton Downtown Development Authority’s boundaries. As a result, either the DDA’s boundaries would have to be extended or a separate district created, with a portion of tax revenues on new development captured to subsidize infrastructure improvements.

DNR press secretary Mary Dettloff calls it a “win for the school district, because they get some property they had their eye on, and a win for the state because it gets to expand the Oak Grove Game Area. It’s always advantageous when we can expand hunting opportunities, keeping green space open to the public.” At a meeting of the state Natural Resources Commission last week, DNR Director Rebecca Humphries authorized the land exchange. In it, the state will receive 114 acres adjacent to the Oak Grove State Game Area in the form of a gift from the Walled Lake Consolidated Schools. The school district is paying the property owners, Don and Doe Schubert of Cohoctah Township, $969,000 for the 114 acres, which is the fair market price of the land, as appraised by an independent appraiser, Dettloff said. In turn, the state is giving the school district 19.2 acres of surplus land south off Commerce Road in Oakland County’s Commerce Township that is near, but not contiguous to, the Proud Lake State Recreation Area. The state game area sits in Deerfield and Cohoctah townships, and the 114 acres that will be added to it are in Cohoctah Township. The state has been selling parcels that are disconnected from its traditional state park, recreation and game areas and using the proceeds to expand its existing areas.

They were 5-1, feeling confident as contenders in their respective leagues. Then came the true contenders, followed by demoralizing defeats. Tonight the two proud programs are in a fight for their seasons. The Trojans have been outscored 95-14 in losses to Tri-County Conference trichampions Sand Creek and Clinton, forcing a must-win game against Ottawa Lake Whiteford to make the playoffs. The Lions, losers to Kensington Valley Conference cochampions Novi and Howell in consecutive weeks, face a Saline team in the same boat. It’s win or, in all likelihood, go home. “It’s been a while since we’ve been like this,” said South Lyon coach Mark Thomas, whose program has made the playoffs five straight years. “We have to keep positive. This is our playoff run. We have to get it together, because it is like a playoff game.” In 2006, only nine teams with 5-4 records were selected for the postseason. The TYojans were in the same position a year ago under then-rookie head coach John Priestap. They beat Blissfield, 10-7, in the season finale to stretch their playoff streak to six seasons. “I felt the exact same way last year,” Priestap said. “I am anxious to try to put it together and play well.” Here’s a look at tonight’s 7 p.m. games; South Lyon (5-3) at Saline (5- 3) - This is the final showdown in an exciting rivalry. League changes for both schools forced them to drop the game. Saline 20, South Lyon 14. Ottawa Lake Whiteford (4-4) at Whitmore Lake (5-3) - Don’t be fooled by Whiteford’s record. The Bobcats are 4-2 in the TCC, a game ahead of the TYojans. Whiteford 23, Whitmore Lake 22. Fowlerviile (7-1) at Corunna (3-5) - Fowler^e’s 21-20 win over Williamston last week provides more proof that these Gladiators are determined for a special season. Fowlerviile 28, Corunna 12. Jackson (4-4) at Howeii (7-1) - The Highlanders face a program in turmoil, marred by a fight last week that almost canceled this week’s game. Howell 28, Jackson 17. Dearborn (5-3) at Hartland (3-5) - The Eagles, who will finish with a fifth straight losing season, hope to spoil the Pioneers’ playoff bid and nab their best record since 2005. Hartland 17, Dearborn 10. Pinckney (1-7) at Milford (3- 5) - Milford’s 53-7 drubbing of the Pirates last week doesn’t bode well for the rematch. Milford 35, Pinckney 17. Livonia 5tevenson (8-0) at Brighton (3-5) - A second straight losing season wasn’t what Brighton coach Bill Murray had in mind. Stevenson, the Western Lakes Activities Association Lakes division champ, has allowed just 88 points this season. Stevenson 38, Brighton 10. Best pick: Predicted score: Clinton 35, Whitmore Lake 14. Actual score: Clinton, 48-14. Worst pick: Predicted score: Williamston 24, Fowlerviile 20. Actual score: Fowlerviile, 21- 20.

H a rtla n d w in s e q u e s tria n title Eagles take 1st state championship in school district's history BY JASON DEEGAN The Livingston Community News With state championships hanging in the balance, both the Hartland and Brighton equestrian teams entered the final event of the Michigan Interscholastic Horsemanship Association state meet with tenuous leads. Only one came home victorious. The Hartland Eagles captured the first equestrian state championship in school history by holding off defending champion Milford, 343-318, in Division A at the Midland County Fairgrounds Oct. 14. Hartland senior Cady Scannell and teammate Dan Iceberg performed well enough in the final event, the two-person relay, to deliver the title. “We were really on,” said Scannell, who led the Eagles with 62 points in the four-day event. “It really helped us in the end.” Meanwhile, the Bulldogs entered the two-person relay 18 points ahead but didn’t have any riders available to compete. They had to settle for a Division B reserve championship, finishing second to Chippewa Hills, 302-282. Brighton coach Jerry Hans, whose program has three state championships, said he couldn’t be prouder of his nine riders despite the near miss. “It was kind of disappointing, only 20 points out (of first),” he said. “(But) it was an excellent performance. It went right down to the last event. The parents and coaches are very excited. At the beginning of the season, we were not sure what we could do.” Hartland interim coach Lynn Rossetto said the weekend “was an experience of a lifetime.” “It was a team effort,” she said. “This team has been practicing together for a long time now. They just rose to the occasion.” Scannell said it was a great way to end her career. “We were jumping for joy,” she said. “It was really exciting, overwhelming. I don’t think it has hit me yet.” The program’s four seniors - Scannell, Veronica French, Lauren Gaines and Liz Goudie - will be missed, but Rossetto said there’s enough talented juniors to defend the title. “Next year is bright for Hartland. You will see us in the same situation,” she said. Brighton graduates five seniors: Emily Berger, Alysa Boan, Lisa Laske, Anna Wagner and Kaitlin Wurtz. Berger was first and second in saddle seat pattern, and Laske second and fourth in western equitation. Next fall, the Bulldogs will rely on juniors Jennifer Lane (first in hunt seat bareback), Katy Clark (first in equitation over fences), Alexandra Droze (second in western bareback) and Erin Turner, who got first and second places in saddle seat bareback, despite practicing the event for the first time just a day earlier. “That was a huge contribution to our success,” Rans said.

From left are Matt Brunner, Matt Wines, Brian Hankins, Jake Hohl and Mike Katsefaras. P i n c k n e y p o s s e s s e s a t a l e n t e d p a c k Cross country team strives for three-peat BY JASON DEEGAN The Livingston Community News Every day, Pinckney boys cross country coach Tom Carney fends off the notion that cross country is an individual sport. He preaches running as a pack. He divides workouts into segments with different Pirates leading each time. He sometimes scripts races to spread the wins around. “We are just trying to make things materialize as a team,” Carney said. “You might think it is an individual sport, but cross country is the biggest team sport there is.” The two-time defending Division I state champions haven’t lost a race yet this fall. They won the prestigious Portage Invitational for the first time ever, and last weekend at the Ann Arbor Gabriel Richard Invitational, they beat five-time defending Division 2 state champion Dexter Dreadnaughts for the first time since the two became cross country megapowers. The Pirates head into the heart of their season poised to leave a lasting legacy. After Monday’s Kensington Valley Conference championships and Saturday’s regional meet, the Pirates will focus on becoming the first Division 1-Class A team in 50 years to three-peat Nov. 3 at the state finals at Michigan International Speedway in Brooklyn. Pinckney senior Brian Hankins, an all-stater on the past two championship teams, said this group is the best team in school history. “Our pack has matured. It has grown up,” he said. “We have four people who can be a top individual on any other team. Last year, we only had one top individual, and our pack was farther back.” The Pirates have four runners capable of winning the individual state championship: seniors Brian Hankins, Mike Katsefaras and Jake Hohl and junior Chad Wines. All were among the top 10 finishers and allstate honorees last fall, helping the Pirates score a state-finals record 27 points. All four admit they dream about SEE PINCKNEY, C2 M ik e Katefaras Brian H ank ins Jake Hohi M a tt Wines Meet the 4 Pirates who have a chance at a state title, C2 B r ig h t o n B u l ld o g g i r l s w in r e g io n a l g o l f t it le But coach cautions that next event can't be predicted BY JA SO N DEEGAN The Livingston Community News The Brighton girls golf team captured its first regional title in nearly a decade last week. That should give the Bulldogs a real charge heading into the Michigan High School Athletic Association Division I state tournament this weekend. Right? Not according to long-time Brighton coach Bill Miller. Miller has been around the game long enough to know golf isn’t that easy to predict. One great tournament doesn’t necessarily follow another. “The state tournament, it is a different day and different match,” Miller said. But all signs point toward a memorable performance. The Bulldogs, who were fifth at the finals the past two seasons, should play well enough today at The Meadows Golf Course at Grand Valley State University in Allendale to advance to Saturday’s final round. Two Brighton freshmen, Emmie Pietila and Erin Williams, have delivered fearless play all season, well beyond their years. Pietila finished second at regionals with a 78.

P IN C K N E Y FROM Cl Runners emphasize teamwork winning it all but quickly shift that talk to the team. “We work great together,” Hohl said. “There is nothing (no rivalry) between any of us. We work great that way. That’s what makes us win.” Jealousy doesn’t seem to bother the best friends. “There’s competitiveness, but we don’t get jealous of each other,” said Katsefaras, who was second at the 2006 state meet. “We are all happy for each other. If one guys does better, we say ‘Wow, we need to get up there with him.’” Wines put it bluntly: “You can’t always just think about yourself.” Carney said a No. 1 runner will never emerge. Hankins has consistently been the best so far. He’s the oidy one who has run a personal-best time (15 minutes and 36 seconds) and was fourth overall at the Gabriel Richard Invitational behind three runners from smaller schools. Katsefaras, who has had some knee problems, said his biggest motivation is beating his older brother Nick Katsefaras’ times as a senior. Hohl said he hasn’t done anything to prove he’s a contender, but Carney praised his racing savvy and work ethic. Carney also pointed out that former Pirate David Emeiy captured just one race before his victory at the 2006 state finals. “They are all so talented in so many different ways, you can’t really define them,” Carney said. No. 1 Brighton singles player goes to states From News staff reports Brighton No. 1 singles player Joel Parrish was determined not to let his senior season end. That extra motivation paid off with a regional championship Oct. 12 and a berth to this weekend’s Michigan High School Athletic Association Division I state tennis tournament in Midland, beginning today. Parrish (21-11) beat Novi’s Mani Mahadevan in the semis of regionals, his first win over Mahadevan this season after two losses, including a 6-0,6-0 setback. The finals win was a three-setter over Northville’s Melvin Joseph. Parrish has been hampered by injuries, but Brighton coach Brian Martin said “the old Joel is back.” “He’s been playing a lot stronger (lately), more steady,” Martin said. “The way he played at regionals was outstanding.” Parrish got a good draw at states, facing Alec Attala of Clinton Township Chippewa Valley in the first round. No. 6 seed Ross Vanderploeg of Holland West Ottawa plays the winner. “I’m playing well. I know I have a shot to beat anybody I come up against,” he said.

GO LF FROM Cl 4 give Brighton title shot third straight appearance at states, have the experience to lead and rarely have off days. That foursome, along with senior Morgan Reed, gives Brighton an outside shot at a title behind top-ranked Rochester and defending champ Grand Blanc. Hartland’s Courtney Erickson, who shot 87 to tie for seventh at regionals, will play as an individual. “If we play well, we could come up on top. We are as good as any team in the state,” Miller said. Walker, who shot 82 at regionals to finish fourth, said her game has been much more consistent this fall. Haupt shot 87 and Williams 88. “I really just want to play my best and be able to end on a good note,” Walker said. The Bulldogs got their first taste of the brutal fall weather that has plagued the postseason tournaments for the boys in recent years with wet, cold conditions at regionals Oct. 11. They still shot a solid score of 335. “Just being able to overcome it (the weather) is a good feeling,” Walker said. The Meadows demands accuracy, with long heather grass at every turn. Even if they get decent weather, the players can expect windy conditions at this time of year, making scoring even more of a challenge.

How can a driver avoid a ticket? "Just obey the law," says Hamburg Township Police Chief Steve Luciano.

Whether it’s commuting to work or taking kids to school, sports or activities, all that time spent driving can increase a person’s probability of coming into contact with a police officer intent on making sure traffic laws are being followed. Wouldn’t it be nice to know how to avoid getting a ticket? “Just obey the law,” said Hamburg Township Police Chief Steve Luciano. That said, he and Hamburg Police Officer Gary Harpe debunk a few myths and offer these common-sense ways to keep a traffic stop from ruining the whole day. Don't get pulled over That’s the best way to avoid a ticket, said Harpe. And the best way to avoid being pulled over is for drivers not to draw attention to themselves, he said. “Don’t play your radio too loud, don’t take off like a shot from a traffic light or a stop sign, don’t squeal your tires. Hamburg Township Police Officer Mike Krause shows how an officer will approach a driver who has been stopped for an infraction. don’t be reading a book or a newspaper while you’re driving, don’t swerve | ^ 1 [ j ^ because you’re talking on your cell phone,” Harpe said. “Just use some common sense and keep your focus on the road.” This “attention” factor could be where a lot of drivers get the misconception that police officers specifically “pick” on them, Luciano said. Red cars and sports cars don’t get pulled over more often than minivans, he said, but bright colors and fancy rides S E E TICKETS, A6 The News offers readers information about autos and auto-related topics in our fall "On the Road" special section.

L i b r a r y s l a m s W e b w a r n i n g Hamburg Twp. trustees overreacted, board says BY LEANNE SMITH T h e L iv in g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s Hamburg Township’s decision to warn library patrons about unfiltered Internet access has outraged the library’s governing board, which called the move the same as book burning. Township trustees voted unanimously Oct. 16 to hang a roughly 20-square-foot banner along the drive to the library, 10411 Merrill Road. Officials said it will read: “Caution, Internet access in the library is unfiltered. Objectionable material may be visible to the general public.” Library officials call the decision - made without any consultation with the library board - an overreaction to an isolated incident. The banner is a result of a resolution brought by TVustee Pat Hohl that oilers its placement until the library “adopts an Internet access policy consistent with community standards and installs filters on all computers with Internet access to prevent access to matericd not consistent with the family standards currently existing in Hamburg Township.” It also provides that one filter can be deactivated by library staff at a patron’s request, but the computer it is on should be screened fixim the public. This action follows a September incident in which library employees called Hamburg Township police after catching a 29-year-old man fondling himself while accessing the Internet on a library computer. Before this incident, the man had been asked to leave the library on two other separate occasions after employees witnessed what they thought was suspicious behavior, said librarian Holly Hentz. The actions of the man were never seen by other library patrons, she said. “This gives the impression that people are stomping in here and doing bad things and the township board has to protect the community from that,” Hentz said. “That’s not true. We’ve offered unfiltered Internet access for 12 years and only had problems with this one individual, which our staff stopped immediately.” Hentz and the library’s board of directors was unaware that such a resolution was being considered by the township board. “I am appalled that they would adopt something like this without any prior conversation with us as to what they were thinking,” said Peg Eibler, library board vice president. “To me, what they’re doing is the same as book burning. It’s book burning with a different media.” The township owns the library and the land it’s built on, but the library board governs the facility’s operating funds, policies and rules. “I don’t want to go to war with the library,” Hohl said. “We’re letting our concerns be known and informing the public about what’s available at the library. I think we need to let people know that public tax dollars are financing access to pornography.” The banner’s original wording was to say that Internet access at the library is “unrestricted,” but was changed to “unfiltered” after library officials pointed out 13 Internet restrictions in its use policy. While they can’t stop township officials from hanging the banner, library officials say they have no immediate plans to install filters on the computers, which alt face the library’s front desk.

Both appointments were approved Oct. 22. Board returns to full strength after 3 resignations BY TOM TOLEN T h e L iv in g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s Kim Shumaker, named Monday from a field of 17 applicants, is the newest member of the Howell school board. Shumaker’s appointment brings the board - plagued by high turnover with three resignations in four months - back to full strength. The board named the Marion Township resident and district parent to the position previously filled by Sue Drazic, who resigned earlier this month. Coincidentally, Shumaker’s first vote after being sworn in was to say “yes” to the motion naming her as board secretary. Shumaker, 42, finished runner- up in June when Dean Miller was chosen to replace Jeanne Clum, who resigned due to health concerns. She did not apply for the seat of Maiy Jo Dymond, who resigned in September. That vacancy was filled last week by Michael Yenshaw, a Michigan State Police trooper at the Brighton post. Shumaker and her husband, Kent, have four sons, their eldest an engineering student at Kettering University. The couple also have two twin sons in high school and one in sbcth grade. She has a bachelor’s degree in dental hygiene from West Liberty College in West Virginia. Shumaker finished far out in front in the balloting - receiving 23 points - while runnerup Daniel Fondriest got nine. Members gave five points to their first choice, three to their second pick and one to their third selection. Others who applied for the vacancy included Matthew Cecora, Jim Pratt, Carolyn Arking, William Harvey, Sharon Van Ord, Dennis Kennedy, Anne Barker, Douglas Moore, Janet Shoemaker, Mark Michaels, Herbert Bursch, Christopher Drake, Angela Elizando, Olaf (Kris) Kauserud and Lyle Dickson. Four of she board members - Jeannine Pratt, Ed Literski, Yenshaw and Miller - picked Shumaker as their first choice. Board President Phil Westmoreland chose Fondriest and Wendy Day selected Moore. Shumaker said she believes she can be a conciliator and an agent for healing on a board that has been divided on many issues. “I feel I can really help with (the healing process),” she S E E HOWELL, A6 ^_____ Rick Fitzgerald on recent school appointments, library sign, B1 I N D E X Achievers B5 Calendar B4 Livingston Life B1-6 Retail Report AS Rick Fitzgerald's column B1 Scrapbook B2 Sports C l-3 Volunteers B4 To report news or for free home delivery call (810)844-2000.

B1 A2 THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS F R ID A Y , O C T O B E R 26, 2 0 0 7 ■' 'it'"- 2 Staph cases found in Pinckney, Howell schools Reports include Parker Campus, Farley Elementary students BY LISA CAROLIN AND LEANNE SMITH T h e L iv in g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s Individual cases of the powerful drug-resistant form of staph infection known as MRSA were confirmed Monday in a Pinckney elementary school and Tuesday at Howell High School at the Parker Campus. Pinckney Community Schools Superintendent Dan Danosky said Farley Elementary School principal Lynda Henderson was alerted to a girl with a suspected “infected spider bite,” one of the indications of MRSA - methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus. The Livingston County Department of Public Health was contacted immediately, he said. School remained open while custodians disinfected the building as county health department officials said closing would be an over reaction, Danosky said. A note alerting parents to the case of MRSA was sent home only to parents of Farley students because the infection was isolated to one student at this school, Danosky said. The bus on which the* student rides to and from school was also disinfected, and the student was cleared by her physician to return to school Tuesday, he said. “We are keeping an eye out at all our buildings,” Danosky said. “The custodial staff has been alerted to be extra diligent in disinfecting buildings, but nothing has been reported or even suspected at any other school.” Howell Superintendent Chuck Breiner said in a statement that the female student in Howell has been under medical treatment since last week, and MRSA was confirmed through a private physician. , The statement said the school, at the Parker Campus in Marion Township, would remain open while the district’s custodial service concentrates its cleaning efforts on “rooms and lavatories reflective of the student’s schedule and use.” Donald Lawrenchuk, medical director for the county health department, said he had spoken to Breiner and also advised him against closing the high school. The Centers for Disease Control in Atlanta has said that it “is not necessary to shut down schools in most instances,” said Lawrenchuk. “The staff has been trained to use the appropriate disinfectants properly.” The Howell district did not release any information on the infected student, but Lawrenchuk said the student has been put on the appropriate antibiotics, which are effective, and that there is no need to keep her out of school. MRSA, like most staph bacteria, can cause skin infections that may look like a pimple or boil and can be red, swollen, painful or have pus or other drainage. More serious infections can cause pneumonia or bloodstream infections. As far as individuals preventing the spread of the disease, Lawrenchuk said, “Hand washing doesn’t kill it but effectively reduces the concentration. It is the single most effective way to prevent the spread of infectious diseases.” According to the Centers for D isease Control and Prevention, one in four people carry the Staphylococcus aureus virus, and in more than 25 percent of the cases of MRSA, people have been resistant to certain antibiotics.

Grant denied, but rail effort on track Howell-Ann Arbor line coalition reworks budget BY JOHN M U LC AH Y T h e L iv in g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s A coalition of trying to launch commuter rail service between Howell and Ann Arbor has been denied a $1 million federal grant that the group was seeking to help initiate the service. However, at a meeting of the coalition this week, members decided they would continue the project. “It was kind of overwhelming support fixim the coalition that they wanted to go ahead,” said Michael Cicchella, Northfield Township supervisor and one of the group’s leaders. The c o ition is composed of public and private entities, including local governments, business groups and transportation agencies in the area that would be served by the commuter rail. The coalition has reworked its budget, lowering it from $7.6 million in capital costs and firstyear operational costs to about $6.6 million, Cicchella said. “There’s an effort now to raise some of the shortfall in private dollars,” he said. Flmding commitments to the project so far include: ■ $376,000 from the state Department of 'R’ansportation to upgrade tracks and rail cars. ■ $250,000 a year for three years from the Ann Arbor Downtown Development Authority. ■ $10,000 a year for three years from the Northfield Township Downtown Development Authority. The coalition still is seeking another federal grant for $1 million related to congestion relief and air quality. The University of Michigan and the federal Environmental Protection Agency have said that they will pay f ^ s for their employees who use the train to commute. U-M would pay the full fares the first year and decreasing amounts the next two years. Besides the Howell and Ann Arbor end points, organizers plan to have stops near where Chilson and Brighton roads intersect in Genoa Township west of Brighton, and at Hamburg and Whitmore Lake. The train will stop in Ann Arbor along Plymouth Road just north of Barton Drive. The changes in the budget will delay opening a station at Hamburg, said Terri Blackmore, executive director of the Washtenaw Area TYmisportation Study, a coalition member. Hamburg passengers may be served initikly at the Whitmore Lake stop, which will be near where the Great Lakes Central Railroad tracks cross Eight Mile Road, she said. It’s still not clear when the C om m u t in g c o s t s Here are costs of commuting 30 miles from Howell to Ann Arbor,and some of the possible savings from a commuter train.

Meanwhile, a new cost study on the project shows commuters from the Howell area who took the train instead would save a substantial amount of money. But the financial analysis also shows that, like existing commuter rail lines around the country fares wouldn’t cover the tot^ cost of operation. TVansportation experts and project supporters, using expense models previously tested elsewhere, studied the cost of commuting by car each day between Howell and Ann Arbor. If vehicle purchase, registration, insurance, maintenance and parking are added to the cost of gasoline, the study estimates a commuter from Howell spends about $27 a day to drive a car to his or her job in Ann Arbor. The daily rail pass is projected to cost $7.25. Howell City Manager Shea Charles said this week he’s not sure if the savings will lure enough Howell-area commuters to ride the train. “It’s a question of economics,” he said. “We know that some of the early studies showed that riders would save almost $6,000 a year. That’s a lot of money, especially in this economy.” Charles suggested further study was needed to more clearly determine how many people will, ride the train to work in Ann Arbor. In addition to saving individual commuters a lot of money, backers say, the proposed train service between Ann Arbor and Howell could draw enough cars away from the crowded TAMMIE GRAVES. THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS daily commute on US-23 to eliminate the need for expanding the freeway. Adding a third lane in each direction between Ann Arbor and Brighton could cost as much as $500 million. By comparison, the annual operating cost of the train from Aim Arbor to Howell is projected at $4.8 million. Organizers project that the annual cost would be offset by fare box revenue the first year of $2,452,125. That revenue is based on an estimated 884,000 rides per year - that’s 1,700 people a day going to work and going home five days a week for 52 weeks. (The train will only run on weekdays to start.) That means the commuter line would be about $2.3 million short of self-sustaining. Based on projected ridership, that amounts to a subsidy of about $2.66 per ride. A study by the Washtenaw Area TVansportation Study notes that the $27 per day car commute amounts to $540 a month for 20 days a month. By contrast, the proposed cost of a monthly pass from Howell is $145, Cicchella said. Monthly passes from a stop in Genoa Township would be $135 and passes from Hamburg and Whitmore Lake would be $125. Whether or not backers’ most optimistic scenarios will work remains to be seen. They project the train would recover about 50 percent of its operating expenses through fares. “That’s good if they can get it,” said Jonathan Levine, professor of urban planning at the University of Mchigan, who has studied many transportation issues.

Fowlerville School board adjusts budget Although unsure of the perstudent funding fixim the state, the Fowlerville school board has approved a revised general fund budget based on its current student count and other anticipated income of $27.3 million. Expenditures of $26 million are anticipated, leaving a fund balance of $1.3 million. The board also approved a balanced, food service budget of $1.2-million that is expected to retain a $131,000 fund balance. The athletic budget was approved at $517,746 with $352,746 transferred ff’om the general fund with the balance in income to come from gate receipts and other athletic-related revenue. Band performance slated for Nov. 4 Band Director Terri Palazolo will direct a fi-ee “Marching Band Extravaganza” at 3 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 4 at the new Performing Arts Center adjacent to Fowlerville High School, 700 N. Grand Ave. “This will be the first ever concert performance hy the marching band because we now have a venue that will accommodate it,” she said. Staffers gets pay bump for longevity To stabilize Fowlerville Community School’s administration team, the school board approved an “administrative longevity” program that would increase yearly compensation to the Smith Elementary School principal, Munn Middle School principal, high school principal and assistant principal and the directors of athletics, curriculum and technology. Currently administrators receive a yearly 3 percent increase for having served more than seven years in the district and smaller increases for fewer years. The new plan provides a $500 increase for years seven through 10 and sm^er increases for fewer years at work. The board anticipates that four key administrators with combined experience of 150 years will leave within the next two years including Kreeger Elementary Principal Jan Fleck, Fowlerville Junior High Principal Tom Tanner, Assistant Superintendent Don Buggia, and Superintendent Ed Alverson. Village Council dissolves panel The Village Council voted Oct. 15 to dissolve the Downtown Development Authority Citizens’ Council. The unanimous vote was taken after a public hearing. “It has been almost impossible to get citizens involved to sit on this council,” said DDA consultant Fred Dillin^am. “We feel the DDA work is well known and well recognized. There is ample opportunity for public input.” Howell City implements new siren testing Beginning in November, city residents hear tornado sirens for one minute on the first Thursday of each month beginning at 9 a.m. It’s just a test. Previously, sirens were tested the first Saturday. In the event of a real emergency, sirens would run for three minutes. Sidewalk work through Nov. 7 Sidewalk installation crossing the CSX Railroad tracks at McPherson Park Drive and Highlander Way is scheduled to run through Nov. 7, weather permitting. The street and crossing will be open to traffic during construction, but occasion^ lane closures will occur. Delays are predicted. Pinckney Site plan is OK'd for new Taco Bell Final site plan approval for a Taco Bell restaurant in Pinckney was granted by the Village Council on Oct. 22. The restaurant is being proposed for about two acres on East M-36 at the site of the former Flimiture by Thomas. The property has been purchased by C&K Properties of Brighton for the single franchise. Construction likely will not begin until the village completes extension of its sewer and water lines to the property, said an architect representing the owner. From News staff reports Crash kills local teen Hartland High School mourns 17-year-old Kimberli Crotty BY L ISA CAROLIN T h e L iv in g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s Kimherli Crotty, the 17- year-old Hartland High School student killed in an auto crash earlier this week, was called a “valued member” of the student body by school officials. The teen was killed on Tuesday a little after 7 a.m. when she turned her car onto westbound M-59 from April Drive into the path of an eastbound pickup. Michigan State Police Sgt. Therese Fogarty- Cremonte said the 1999 Dodge Caravan Crotty was driving was hit in the driver’s door. She was pronounced dead at the scene in Oceola Township. The driver of the pickup truck was a 50-year-old man from Howell, and he and a passenger suffered minor injuries'. Fogarty-Cremonte said all of those involved were wearing seat belts and investigators did not believe alcohol or excessive speed were factors in the crash. The incident remains under investigation, Fogarty-Cremonte said. Janet Sifferman, superintendent of the Hartland Consolidated Schools, released a statement Tuesday saying, “Kimberli Crotty was a wonderful, charming young lady who was a valued member of the swim team, choir and student body. We are extremely saddened by this and our sympathy goes out to her family and friends.” She was the daughter of Steve and Traci Crotty. Her funeral was scheduled for today at Cornerstone Presbyterian Church near Brighton.

' '.r731 Howell fire agency enjoying a surplus Authority no longer covers Genoa Twp. LAURIE HUMPHREY T h e L iv in g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s Four months after the Howell Area Fire Authority was directed to stop covering 18 square miles of Genoa Township, the group is enjoying a $200,000 budget surplus. That is good news for administrators who anticipated a budget shortfall for 2006-07, when the western-most side of the township - and $340,000 in payments for fire coverage - was taken over by the Brighton Area Fire Authority. “We’re doing fine,” said Chief Jim Reed, head of the Howell Area Fire Authority, following the recent accounting of last year’s books. The authority had a budget surplus of about $107,000 at the close of 2005-2006, bringing the 2006 fund balance to approximately $684,000. With the addition of last year’s $200,000, the fund balance as of July 1 is about $882,000. The coverage shift took effect July 1, while notification of the change was delivered to Howell fire authorities in February, four months before the anticipated start of a new contract. Under terms of the old agreement, Brighton Area Fire Authority officials managed the tax revenues generated in Genoa Township, and turned over $340,000 annually to Howell for its help in covering part of the township. The change ended a century of shared fire protection. “It’s something that happened. We’ve put it behind us and moved on,” said Reed about the transition. Now “it’s pretty much business as usual.” Reed was able to achieve cost savings through a variety of means, namely delaying the purchase of a new fire engine for Oceola Township. Two areas that have remained unaffected, he said, are staffing and training. The Howell Area Fire Authority maintains five stations: two in the city of Howell, one in Marion Township, one in Oceola Township and one in Cohoctah Township. “We go all the way up to the county line,” said Reed, “so we still have a lot of responsibility.” Four of the stations are manned with two firefighters, 10 hours a day on weekdays with 20 part-time staffers. Coverage also is provided with five full-time staff and more than 70 paid, on-call firefighters. “We’re still able to work things out ... being fiscally responsible and maintaining our level of service,” he said. Looking to the future, he is awaiting word on a federal five-year grant for $316,000. If approved, the authority, with matching local funds, wdll hire additional full-time staff. It will move the authority closer to achieving Reed’s long-term goal: Stations that are staffed 24 hours a day, seven days a week.

Finances a top concern in Howell race 2 vie for mayor's seat, 5 for 3 seats on council BY LAURIE HUMPHREY T h e L iv in g s to n C o m m u n it y N ew s All seven candidates vying for a seat on the Howell City Council agree finances should be a top concern for local government. Voters will decide Nov. 6, which candidates have the best approach to deal with the issue. Incumbent Mayor Gerri Moen will face off against challenger Jim Smullen for a two-year term as mayor. Five candidates, including incumbents Tom Malloy, Steve Patton and Steve Manor will vie for three fouryear seats on the Howell City Council. They are being challenged by Victoria Hertrich and Matt Wilson. Incumbents Moen, Malloy, Patton and Manor, all are concerned about the future of city services, which are funded, in part, through state revenue sharing money that is given to local units of government by state legislators. “I don’t want to see revenue sharing cut anymore than it has been in the last five years,” says Moen. Combined with a decrease in property values and the declining industrial base that is expected to result in a decrease of tax revenues for city coffers within two years, the incumbents sat they are looking for ways to keep the revenue the city has, cut costs and find new ways to generate income. Manor is looking for a growing tax base, or development in the city’s southeast sector, to generate tax money, and looking for more ways to share services, and expenses, between communities. “We are already doing that with the (Howell Area) fire authority,” he says. “And we are beginning to do that with recreation (Howell Area Parks and Recreation Authority.)” It is an approach supported by Malloy and Patton. Promoting development in the industrial park is worth looking into, agrees Moen, but she also is focused on retaining the business in the downtown, and would like to begin recruitment efforts for new businesses. The best way to control costs, according to Smullen, is to abandon the Loop Road Project and redirect the money to downtown revitalization and road improvements, such as D-19. “I know there has already been money invested in it (Loop Road Project,) but I think they should take care of the people who live here,” he says. He also projects that the Loop Road, which will be funded locally, will result in a tax increase for city residents. “Now is not the time to raise taxes,” he says. Hertrich also is concerned about the project that would create a loop around the south side of the city as an alternative route to Grand River Avenue. But her financial focus rests with a potential loss of income for downtown business owners. “I’m concerned the cars will follow the loop, and take business away,” she says. “You can already see how many buildings are empty downtown.” Wilson’s financial concerns stem fix)m studies and consultant fees, which he says have thus far yielded few results. “A lot of studies are being paid for, a lot of consultants are being paid for, but nothing is being followed up on,” he says. He would like city leaders to provide an overview detailing what is being asked, why it’s being asked and how will the information be used to improve city services, business or residential districts. Communications and improving the city’s image and infrastructure are also key issues in this election. Each of the incumbents want to see the Loop Road and D-19 road improvements projects finished. People entering the city from the south corridor currently see abandoned houses and blight, according to Patton. “Until you drive through, you don’t realize we have all these historic houses and a wonderful downtown.” He is excited about the project that will “reshape the entire corridor.” “You don’t get many opportunities to change somebody’s impression,” he says, adding that the change will invite people into the city “to experience the small town life that most people dream of.” Malloy agrees. “We have a good, clean city, that people take pride in.” He contends the pride shines through during the free summer concerts and other community events held throughout the year. One more name on the ballot Nov. 6 is Robert Wines. He is running unopposed for the four-year seat on the city’s Board of Review.

The candidates include incumbents John Hinis and Claudia Roblee and newcomers Chad Cooper and James Bohn. Wite-in candidate Susan Walters-Steinacker, who ran unsuccessfully in 2005, also is nmning. The deadline for filing as a write-in candidate was 4 p.m. today. 1\vo veterans - Steve Monet, who also is mayor, and Jon Stoppels, the longest-serving council member - are not running, assuring at least two new faces on council. The entry of Walters-Steinacker into this year’s race has changed the campaign. Walters- Steinacker, who regards herself as a city watchdog, regularly attends council meetings and those of other city boards. She says she is misunderstood, and assures that she would get along with council members. “If I wasn’t able to get along, I wouldn’t be on these boards,” she says. “I’ve just never been given a chance.” She says it’s time for the city to economize. “We’ve all had to tighten our belts,” she says. “I want the city to smvive and thrive within its own means.” Walters-Steinacker had intended to pass out stickers with her name on them to make the write-in process easier for her supporters, but decided against it when she learned the stickers can foul up the voter tabulators. Claudia Roblee'was appointed to council earlier this year to fill a vacancy and is running for election for the first time. She and her husband, Mark Gougherty, own Artventures, a custom framing shop and art gallery, and she’s a firm believer in a strong downtown. “Keeping downtown healthy is important because without it, you lose the ability to draw businesses and residents to the area,” she says. Among issues facing the city, Roblee says, are “keeping the infi^structure healthy” and promoting more home ownership (37 percent of residences are rentd). Roblee, who attends the Harmony Way Community Church in Fowlerville, also is studying to be a minister. Newcomer Jim Bohn became interested in city politics after the condominiums in his development experienced problems resulting from what he regards as questionable engineering and construction methods. Bohn believes residential neighborhoods have not received enough attention, saying the city expends too much time, effort and money on downtown. Bohn says he wants “an opportunity to have the city focus its attention from almost solely on downtown to residential needs.” Bohn also objects to “annual (residential) property tax increases,” particularly in light of the cuirent state economy. “Many commercial properties have been devalued in terms of property tax assessments,” he says. “Cannot the residents expect similar treatment?” he asks. Chad Cooper, the other new face in the council race, is a fourth-generation Brighton resident. His grandfather, Marshall Cooper, was a one-time Brighton mayor and founded what is now Cooper & Binkley Jewelers. Cooper sa)^ he favors managed growth. “We can’t prevent growth, so in our growth and expansion, I want to ensure it embraces the culture that has been established,” he says. Cooper believes in a strong downtown, but not to the detriment of the rest of the city. “You have to have vibrant business, but strike a balance,” he says. He also favors stronger cooperation between the city and the Brighton Area Schools. John Umis was elected to a two-year term on the council in 2005 and is running for a second term. 'I\inis and his wife. Deb, own the historic Hyne home on West Main Street and spent several years renovating it. The couple has opened it to the public several times to host fun^aising events for charity. Ibnis is currently employed as a commercial real estate broker with Lee & Associates in Novi. lYmis was a major figure in the formation of the Brighton Principal Shopping District, a mechanism established last year to promote and market downtown, and was a founding board member. Although no longer on the PSD board, Ttmis remains a strong advocate of a viable downtown. “With the state in a difficult situation, we have more responsibility now to do our part to promote business, continue working on downtown and keep increasing Brighton’s desirability level, “ he says.

Finances key as Brighton leaders set 2008 goals BY TOM TOLEN New s S ta f f R e p o rte r Getting the Brighton Downtown Development Association more financiafiy involved in downtown projects is one the preliminary goals set by City Council at a recent retreat. Other goats include developing a plan to deal with spirting retirement and health care costs on the city budget, maintaining and improving the city’s business-friendly approach and exploring the possibility of a complaint-based rental housing inspection program. Council members hammered out a preliminary list of goals for the coming year during a planning retreat last weekend with city staff. City Manager Dana Foster stressed that the goals remain preliminary and will be refined and presented Nov. 1 to council for approval. “The retreats are designed to review where we have been over the last year and where we’re going,” said Brighton Mayor Steve Monet. “It gives us the ability to have discussion on topics in a lot more depth than we can have at City Council meetings.” The coimcil hopes to get the DDA more financially involved in downtown projects, such as new sidewalks. In the past, the DDA has been involved more in enhancement and improvement projects such as Mill Pond Lane and the Mill Pond Walkway and raised, lighted pedestrian crosswalks, as opposed to basic infrastructure. Also on the pending priority list: Streamlining the approval process for sidewalk cafes; identifying potential neighborhood redevelopment districts; purchasing additional generators for power outages; upgrading downtown electrical capacity for civic events; controlling waterfowl feeding at the Mill Pond; increasing police patrols in the Mill Pond area and winterization of public rest rooms at the pavilion near city hall. Foster told council members the city must find new ways to gain additional revenues such as offering city services, particularly sewer and water, to areas outside the city limits. “The burdens are growing much faster than the revenue base,” Foster cautioned. All three city council challengers in Nov. 6 election - Chad Cooper, Jim Bohn and write-in Susan Walters-Steinacker - attended the retreat and contributed their ideas during the public comment portion of the sessions.

R E T A I L R E P O R T BY STEPHENIE KOEHN N ew s S p e c ia l W rite r For more than 115 years, the Carhartt name has stood for quality men’s workwear. The unpretentious, durable bib overall worn by hunters, fishermen, farmers, ranchers, sportsmen and serious outdoor enthusiasts is iconic among working men, including many in Livingston County. Over the years, the company has added pants, shirts, jackets and more to its line of active working clothes. And, even though the clothing was not sized for women, Carhartt apparel has been a favorite of that sex, too, despite a few fit problems. “Women would just roll up the sleeves,” said John Mozena, spokesman for the Dearborn-based company. “We had the durability and comfort, but not the fit for women.” Nevertheless, about a third of the company’s customers are women. This fall, in response to an increasing chorus of female requests, Mozena said, Carhartt has unveiled a line of women’s clothing that has just hit retailers’ shelves. Locally, Swann’s Clothing and Dunham’s Sporting Goods in Howell are stocking the women’s line, which consists of 39 items ranging from coats, pants, socks, belts and gloves to, of course, a pair of beige bib overalls. “We don’t have the entire collection yet, but we hope to have it in within a week,” said Pam Shaw, owner of Swann’s. The store, one of Carhartt’s most successful retailers in southeast Michigan, was among 150 nationwide that served as a test market last year for Carhartt’s women’s clothing line. “I’d say the test was successful,” she said. “Some items, like coats and pants, were more successful than others.” Of the 150 testmarket stores, 148, including Swann’s, ordered the women’s line. TSC Industries in Howell (better-known locally by its former name. Tractor Supply) and the Big Acre Store near Brighton continue to carry the men’s line, but will PHOTOS:JAMIE CHARBENEAU-PISELLA.THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS Pam Shaw, owner of Swann's Clothing in downtown Howell, shows new items in the women's line of Carhartt clothing. Swann's, along with Dunham's Sporting Goods in Howell, are stocking the new women's line, which consists of 39 items ranging from coats and pants to gloves and bib overalls. not carry Carhartt women’s apparel, said clerks at those stores. (i)arhartt clothing, including women’s items, can be ordered online at TSC. The new collection utilizes seaming and streamlining to adapt Carhartt’s workwear to the female form. “We’ve taken some of our most popular items and shaped them for women,” Mozena said. “We’ve added princess seams to our coats, and an elastic ‘gather’ on the overalls that prevents the wind from rushing down the back,” as women said it would do when they wore the men’s overalls. The company has put as much effort into its women’s line as into its men’s clothing, Mozena said. “We did what we thought would work, then reached out to actual working women to wear them and made changes based on their feedback.” Mozena noted that there have been numerous requests for a pink bib overall. “Our designers weren’t comfortable with pink, but they came up with Vintage Rose,” a dark salmon hue that it has used in a jacket. “It looks sort of like what you’d get if you spilled wine on a white shirt and didn’t get it all out,” he said. It’s Carhartt’s first “named” color, he added, somewhat sheepishly. Contact Stephanie Koehn at sakoehn@comcast.net or 810- 299-5283. R E T A I L B R I E F S Toroz's owner seeks new location Toroz Mexican Grill in Brighton has garnered a reputation since its opening, a year-and-a-half ago, for prepared-to-order, fresh Mexican favorites - what owner Bob Ressler calls “fast, casual Mexican food.” The menu includes traditional Mexican dishes, such as burritos, quesadillas and tacos. Toroz’s menu also includes beverages and a variety o f“Extraz,” including chips and salsa, guacamole, fried ice cream sundaes, cookies and more. The restaurant has become a favorite lunch spot for employees of businesses in the Cross Street-Grand River Avenue area. However, owner Bob Ressler said so much of his business is carry-out that he is looking for a smaller location. Customers dash in and out, never using the many tables in the brightly lit space. “This place is too big for us,” Ressler said. “The building is costing too much.” Although he is actively looking for a new location, Ressler has not yet found the right spot. “We haven’t found any property we’re considering at this point,” he said. In the meantime, although the building itself is for sale, Toroz will be open for business as usual. Location: 8262 Cross St, Brighton.

Young drivers, by virtue of their inexperience behind the wheel, also can draw attention to themselves, he said. “People take it personally when they’re stopped, but that’s not what it’s about,” Harpe said. “It’s about being safe. Careless and reckless driving is against the law.” D o n ' t s p e e d Speeding is driving anything over the posted speed limit, but every officer has his or her “threshold” at which he or she will pull someone over, Luciano said. While thresholds vary from officer to officer, he said, very few look at anything under 10 mph over the posted speed unless there’s something else going on, such as swerving or weaving. “My threshold is 15 miles per hour or more over the limit,” Harpe said. “Everyone makes mistakes or doesn’t know what the posted speed is, but if you’re going 15 over it should kind of kick in that you’re driving a little fast and maybe you should check your speed.” What people think of as “speed traps,” Luciano said, typically are places officers hear a lot of complaints about. “It is about the area,” he said, “but it’s because we keep hearing that something needs to be done in this spot or that spot.” W e a r a s e a t b e l t Michigan motorists can be pulled over on suspicion that a seat belt is not being used or not being used properly, Luciano said. A driver also can be held responsible for any passen- Bad habits Drivers often fall into routines that can elevate to hazardous and reckless driving if not brought into check. Here, from the Hamburg Township Police Department, are a few common wrongdoings. ■ Passing on the right shoulder - It's easy to do this when traffic is backed up waiting for a car to make a left turn on a busy road, such as M-36, but doing this when there is no lane on the right is an infraction. ■ Making a U-turn at an intersection - Easy to do if a driveway or street is missed, but it's dangerous and illegal. ■ Rolling through stop signs - Probably the most common infraction. Count to three after coming to a complete stop to avoid this. ■ Entering a road from a driveway or parking lot without stopping - Again, a very common occurrence. Use the same rule as with stop signs to avoid colliding with oncoming cars. ■ Obstructing the view - While it's not illegal to have things hanging from a rearview mirror or stacked in the back window, it is illegal to drive with an obstructed view. Make sure the "decorations" don't block the line of sight. ■ Failing to use turn signals - While motorists are rarely stopped for turning without signaling, it can be very dangerous to change lanes or make turns without letting other drivers know your intentions. ■ Failing to dim lights - On dark, curvy country roads, bright lights not dimmed for oncoming traffic can be hazardous. Drivers who fail to dim their brights also clue police into the fact that they may not be paying close attention to their driving. ■ Speeding in the passing lane - Drivers who stay in the left lane (passing lane) on the highway have greater risk of getting a speeding ticket. Speed detection is done from the center median, making that lane the easiest for officers to get a good read on speed. gers in the vehicle under age 16 who are not wearing seat belts. E v e r y t h i n g m u s t w o r k Tickets can be given for equipment defects, such as cracked windshields, loud mufflers, burned-out headlights and taillights and lack of a light above the license plate. H a v e a v a l i d p l a t e Police cars contain computers that let officers check the validity of a license plate while following a motorist. If a plate is not registered to the vehicle it’s on, or if it’s expired, motorists can expect to be pulled over, Luciano said. “You also need valid and signed vehicle registration on board and proof of insurance,” he said. “Have your paperwork ready with your license to show to the officer.” H a v e a v a l i d l i c e n s e Harpe estimates that about a quarter of all the drivers he stops do not have their driver’s license with them. “They never carry it, they’ve lost it or they just plain don’t have one,” he said. “We have to verify the identity of the driver. If you don’t have your license, we will have to see some kind of paperwork that we can check through the computer.” K e e p i n m i n d ... Police officers, Luciano said, are “human truth detectors,” so certain behaviors can help motorists avoid tickets. “Be polite. Be honest. Don’t be defensive,” Luciano said. “And remember, officers always feel more comfortable if they can see your hands as they approach your vehicle. Don’t fumble around in your glove compartment or around the passenger seat.” Without a question, officers hand out far more warnings than tickets, Luciano said. “But if you do get a ticket, remember it’s not punishment,” he said. “It’s designed to alert you to bad behaviors that hopefully you will change.” Leanne Smith can be reached at lsmith@ Uvingstoncommunitynews.com or at 810-844-2011. LIBRARY FROM AT Board angry that township trustees didn't consult it first standing firm, said Supervisor Cindy Pine. “This board is pretty unified that this needs to be our action so the library continues to be a safe place where children can be and parents don’t have to worry,” she said.

I like to fix things.” During the candidate interviews at Monday’s meeting, Shumaker tearfully informed the board that if appointed, she might not be able to serve for long, since her family would have to move if her husband is transferred by his employer. She blamed her family’s precarious situation on the Michigan economy, but said she had to be truthful. She said 'Ibesday if a move happened it wouldn’t be before the first of the year. A homemaker and part-time dental hygienist, Shuinaker has regularly attended school board meetings for the last three years. During the interview portion, she told the board she lost her job in August due to the poor economy. “(As a result), I know a little bit about budgetcrunching,” she said. The school district has been roiled in controversy the last couple years, with issues ranging from recent concerns over safety on school buses and a decision to privatize custodial services to an attempt to ban books from an advanced English class reading list. Shumaker said the divisiveness “needs to stop. If you’re not moving forward, you’re moving backwards,” she said. The board’s newest member said she respects everyone’s opinion, and considers all sides before forming a position on an issue. “Everybody has legitimate concerns,” she said, “and the more points you hear, you can come to a center point - and somewhere there lies the truth.” The board appeared buoyed by the appointrnent of Shumaker, whom members said they have regarded as a reasoned, thoughtffil contributor during the public comments portion of past meetings. “I’m looking forward to the future,” said Jeannine Pratt. “I think we’re on the road to recovery.” Tom Tolen can be reached at ttolen@!ivingstoncommunitynews. com or at810-844-2009. 1-96 to exit 129 • N. on Fowlerville Rd to Sherwood • Left 2 miles to 9524 Sherwood Special Pricing for Fall & Spring Deliveries!

The school board gave Superintendent Dan Danosky the go-ahead Oct. 18 to organize focus groups of school employees and community members to discuss building needs and come up with plans to meet those needs. Danosky will report the groups’ findings to the board in mid-December and could make a recommendation that it put together a proposal for next May’s election. “We are not talking about raising taxes,” Danosky said. “We have several bonds, some of which will start to expire in 2011 and we would like to use the equity we have built to make some much needed improvements here.” At a September retreat, board members and administrators discussed the possibility of breaking the project into two phases. The first, which coidd be voted on in May, would include athletic facilities at Pinckney Community High School, such as a football stadium, baseball and softball diamonds and inground sprinkler system. The proposal also would address technology needs and rising building needs, Danoslg^ said, such as roof and parking lot projects, a new bus garage, the elimination of portable classrooms at Navigator School that have no running water and the construction of an entrance and exit from the high school onto M-36. The second phase of the project, which would be placed on a later ballot, would allow the construction of a community center in which the district would locate its community education center, currently operating out of Village Education Center, 125 Putnam St. in Pinckney, Danosl^ said. “We have no place for kids, no place for senior citizens and no place for groups like Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts to meet,” he said. “What we’ll try to find out is whether this is something the community wants and will it support it.” Moving community education to a community center would allow Pinckney schools to take the general fund money it gives that department and put it back into general circulation, Danosky said. While the facility could be built with funds from the refinanced bonds, its operation may need to be supplemented by a small millage, he said.

Local municipalities charge DTE for'baby-sitting'dow ned lines BY LEANNE SMITH T h e L iv in g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s Firefighters expect to be tied up manning power lines downed by wind and rain in storms like the one that hit Hamburg Township on July 19. They just figure DTE Energy should respond to these emergencies quickly, but that’s not always the case, said Hamburg Township Fire Chief Doug Beriy. That’s why he said his department is joining others in Livingston County in billing the power company for firefighters’ time spent “baby-sitting” the lines. “It’s been a nonstop battle, and it’s rarely just an hour or two that we wait,” Berry said. “We’ve sat on downed lines for more than 12 hours. There have been times they’ve never even shown up at all.” Following the township’s cost recovery ordinance, the fire department has invoiced DTE $2,145 for time spent on the July 19 storms. That’s in addition to $5,650 billed to DTE for storms dating to May 2006. It’s yet to receive payment. “That time is money,” said Supervisor Cindy Pine. “We just want them to please respect our firefighters’ time.” Reimbursements are not out of the question. The Howell Area Fire Authority recently received about $2,600 for the excessive time its firefighters spent with wires downed by storms this summer, said Fire Chief Jim Reed. “Watching downed live wires is a hazardous situation and it’s part of our job as long as it’s reasonable,” Reed said. “Ten to 12 to 14 hours is not reasonable. We appreciate that they understand this and are making a good effort to improve the situation.” Some reimbursement for Hamburg Township is not out of the question, said Paul Ganz, DTE Energy regional relations manager. He just wants more detail on the invoices. “We understand that local budgets are getting tight and departments are trying to contain costs,” Ganz said. “If there are situations that are egregious, we’d be happy to sit down with them and work it out, but it would be foolish for us to pay the bills without any kind of substantiation.” Cost recovery on time firefighters spend watching downed power lines is “problematic,” Ganz said. “Police and fire coverage is covered by local taxes and we pay a lot of local taxes,” he said. “We look at it as mutual aid. We don’t charge them when we come to unhook an electric meter when a building is burning.” Brownouts caused by an overloaded power grid in the township also has cost Hamburg Township’s Department of Public Worte about $30,000 this year in sewer equipment and repairs, but the township is not seeking reimbursement for that. Pine said. DTE Energy has spent nearly $4 million upgrading Hamburg’s power system to relieve brownouts, Ganz said. The effort, Pine said, was needed and is appreeiated. “\^ e n you have a place go from being a sleepy resort community to a 24,000-person municipality with great power demands, the power system has to keep up,” she said.

BY U SA CAROLIN T h e L iv in g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s This Halloween, kids will have a new book to help capture the mood of the season. It’s called “’Twas Halloween Night,” and it’s written by Brighton 'Township resident Jennifer Dziekan and illustrated by 'Toni Auletti. It’s the story of zoo animals that get out at night when the zoo closes and dress up in costumes. “It’s told from the perspective of a polar bear,” says Dziekan. “It was inspired by “‘1\vas the Night Before Christmas” poem and follows that same pattern. I want to spark kids’ imaginations about what could happen at a zoo on Halloween night.” Dziekan has four daughters, ages 12,9,5 and 4 months, and says she is always looking for books to read to them. She says two of her daughters’ favorite time of year is Halloween and that they helped her edit the book. “I like to have children read the story silently and out loud because you can listen to the words that they change, which can be a better way to say things for children to understand it,” says Dziekan. She says she and Auletti bounced ideas off one another, and that she is pleased with the illustrations, which she says are so beautifully done that they leap off the page. VWien Dziekan visited Brighton’s Miller kindergarten classes Oct. 19, she was pleased with the children’s reactions. Halloween book ■ Title: "Twas Halloween Night," by Jennifer Dziekan. ■ What: Children's book about animals in a zoo on Halloween night. ■ Cost: $10. ■ Where to buy it: At Lucky Duck Toys in downtown Brighton, or by calling 517- 204-9030, or by mailing a check to P.O. Box 75, Brighton, Ml 48116. ■ Details: On the Web at kidstorypress.home. comcast.net. r “The kids have been lighting up, giggling, and like the idea of the animals in costumes,” says Dziekan. “I liked when the giraffe dressed up as a doctor,” said kindergartner Chloe Valente, who plans to dress as a football player for Halloween. “I liked the hippo being a prince,” said Dylan Andrews, a kindergartner who’s planning to be Darth Vader for Halloween. “I like the creepy things on Halloween. I saw a real skeleton once.” This is Dziekan’s second book. Her first was “The Wishing Bear,” the story of a bear cub who delays his bedtime by asking his mother questions. After she talks to him about her wishes, he realizes that he has a wish of his own. She says she has been writing since she was little, and has used her time as a stayat- home mom to continue that passion. “It feels great to see this project complete and to see the sparkle in kids’ eyes,” says Dziekan.

Legend of Sleepy Howell could draw 5,000 Saturday Halloween event has activities for families, trick-or-treating BY LAURIE HUMPHREY T h e L iv in g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s Howell has carved out a niche for itself as host to one of the biggest Halloween happenings in Livingston County. The Saturday night event is expected to draw at least 5,000 people if the weather cooperates. “The Legend of Sleepy Howell has become Livingston County’s premiere Halloween event,” said Mindy Arnold, Howell’s Main Street manager. Activities, most of which Mary Ellen Aria, owner of Aria Booksellers, gets her store ready for the annual "Legend of . Sleepy Howell" event with a Halloween book display. JAMIE CHARBENEAU-PISELLA,THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS are free and run from 5 to 10 p.m., include hay rides, music performances, pumpkin carving contests, balloon twisting, storytelling, a costume parade and trick-or-treating, which is the biggest draw, Arnold said. People come because “it’s a safe place for (children) to trick-or-treat,” she said, adding that word of the program has spread and it now draws people from outside the county. Program organizers have added new features to the event in celebration of the fifth year, but the biggest change will be the temporary closure of Grand River Avenue and State Street. 'Traffic will be rerouted along Sibley and Clinton streets from 3 to 11 p.m. to accommodate additional vendor booths and strolling entertainment and to improve safety. “For the fcst time. Grand River Avenue will be closed between Center and Barnard streets to allow families to enjoy all of the event festivities without worrying about their safety” while trying to cross Grand River Avenue, said Ar- S E E 'SLEEPY HOWELL', B3 C o m m u n i t y b o n f i r e i n F o w l e r v i l l e h e a t s u p t h e f u n PHOTOS; JAMIE CHARBENEAU-PISELLA.THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS Fowlerville's Fall Family Funfest and what was billed as Livingston County's Biggest Bonfire was staged Oct. 21 at the Community Park in the village.

Howell board at full strength will bear heavy weight of district's problems RICK FITZGERALD T h e L iv in g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s The Howell school board is up to full strength. With the appointment of Kim Shumaker this week and last week’s appointment of Michael Yenshaw, the board once again has its full complement of seven members. It’s time to get back to business. Once the two new board members were sworn in Monday night, they got a heavy dose of the tough choices that lie ahead. They received a financial update that shows the district will need to cut nearly $642,000 from the 2007-08 budget. And they struggled to approve a $58,000 expenditure for equipment for a class in digital photography. But to a person, each board member vowed to put the divisiveness of the past in the past and move forward together for the good of the district. Trustee Ed Literski put it in a simple, declarative statement: “We will work together.” Vice President Jeannine Pratt, who veiy quickly has become the so-called senior member of the very green board of education, said she now sees a board that is listening to the community. That, she said, “bodes well for the future.” The proof will come in the months ahead as a school board filled with strongwilled, thoughtful community members moves the district beyond the controversy-ofthe- moment mentality that has dominated the recent past. Cheers: To all of those honored by the Livingston Diversity Council for their commitment to creating a more welcoming community. Among those honored were the Howell school district, former Howell High teacher Cathy Capy, Brighton Holiday Inn sales director Cathie Osdras, and longtime volunteers Lou and Mary Morand. Diversity, in all its many forms, is good for all of us. Jeers: To the Hamburg Township Board of 'Trustees for meddling in library business by ordering that a warning sign about Internet use be posted outside the library. We would like to think that the politicians on the township board would have the good sense to leave library operations to the elected library board. Instead, the township officials, who own the land on which the library stands, overreacted to one incident of inappropriate behavior by a library patron - who was caught by diligent library staff - and now want to scare everyone using the library by posting a warning sign outside. Township trustees were elected to run township government, not be the morality police. Cheers: To schoolhouse owner Chris Williams for his dedication to restoring the 1880s school known as the East Handy School as his home. He’s done an incredible job of making the dilapidated building warm and cozy once again. It’s great to see history preserved in such a personal way. Cheers: To all the great cooks of Livingston County who will be sharing their favorite holiday recipes with us for our Nov. 16 Home for the Holidays section. Each year, we ask readers to send us a recipe or two to share in this annual special section. Now is the time to dig out your favorites and send them along to us. The deadline is Monday.

He dictated everything. I only spoke when spoken to.' ■ Her advice for others who are being victimized by an abusen'Find somebody to talk to. Nobody was able to help me until they knew (what was going on).' ■ On LACASA: 'If it had not been for LACASA, I would've gone back to my abuser,'she says. 'They helped me realize it wasn't anything I had done that made him that way.' BY TOM TOLEN N ew s S t a f f R e p o r te r A fter experiencing severe physical and emotional abuse at the hands of her former husband several years ago, Brightonarea resident Sharon Richmond has been able to make a new life for herself. At her lowest point, she was certain her husband would kill her. She was the personification of the term “battered wife.” But today, especially during October, National Domestic Violence Awareness Month, Richmond wants women to know that there are alternatives to enduring physical, emotional and psychological abuse. She talks with others about her experiences through LACASA and she has written a humorous account of her past dating disasters, “Kissing Toads and Other Hazards of Dating,” that was part of her cathartic recovery from abuse. At the time she met her future spouse, Richmond was living in Arkansas, where she had moved from Michigan to pursue a job opportunity. Her future husband had just been released from prison after serving a sentence for armed robbery. Normally that would be a red flag, but the idealistic Richmond didn’t think so at the time. “I thought everybody deserves a second chance,” she says. The abuse began soon after they started dating, although she didn’t recognize it as such. “I didn’t see it as abuse - I saw it as caring, compassionate behavior,” Richmond says. “He was always right by my side, wouldn’t let me go anywhere by myself. (The abuse) was always there, in underlying currents. He was always pinching me and poking me.” Richmond moved back to Michigan, with her fiance, when they became engaged. “The obvious abuse didn’t start until after we were married,” Richmond says. Dr. Joseph Bono, a Brighton psychologist, says women, who comprise the majority of domestic violence victims, need to be on the lookout for things other than the obvious signs in their partner. “If they have a problem with an explosive temper, or have broken things, that should be a warning sign,” Bono says. In addition to his Brighton practice, Bono is a consulting psychologist for Wolverine Human Services, which operates residential treatment and other programs for wayward juveniles in Michigan. The couple got married in W r it in g s a b o u t d om e s t ic v io le n c e ■ Local resident Sharon Richmond has written a short book titled, "Kissing Toads and Other Hazards of Dating," published by PublishAmerica, and available locally at Barnes & Noble at Green Oak Village Place at US-23 and Lee Road and at Aria Booksellers in downtown Howell. She now is planning another book. While her first effort was a humorous account of her past dating disasters, and was intended as part of her therapy, the next one will be a much more serious account of hers and others' experiences as victims of domestic violence. "I want people to read it and be able to see through the eyes of the victim," she says. ■ Dr. Joseph Bono, a Brighton psychologist, has written a help book titled "Caveat Emptor: A Consumer's Guide to Mental Health Services." It is available from www. AuthorHouse.com or by accessing Bono's Web site; www.josephbonophd. com. August 1999, and Richmond says the physical abuse started almost immediately. “I started getting shoved, he pulled my hair, started hitting. He was a hard drinker, an alcoholic. He tried to kill me on three occasions.” She says he sexually assaulted her. Richmond was ripe for abuse. “I was at a low point in my life so I was very vulnerable to his controlling behavior,” she says. “He would undermine my decisions, there was a lot of manipulation right off the bat. It was a form of mind control. They convince you it was your fault. It was like, ‘If you didn’t say or do those things, I wouldn’t have to get angry with you.’” She says her husband would accuse her “of sleeping with everyone I knew. I was never allowed to go out, never allowed to wear makeup. He didn’t want me to be attractive to other men. Hi& jealousy was unbounded,” Richmond says. Her husband was careful about the way in which he beat her up so there were no visible marks, and he never left any broken bones. “The last time he assaulted me I had worked a long day and was exhausted, and he told me to get him another beer, and I said no. I’m going to bed, hoping I’d live to see the next morning. He put on leather work gloves, pinned me to the bed, put his left hand around my throat, hit me across the face, squeezed until I was almost unconscious and said, ‘I meant to kill you but decided not to.’ It was the third time he had almost strangled me to unconsciousness. I was terrified.” It was at that point that Richmond first considered leaving. Bono says it is imperative the victim not remain in the abusive relationship. “She needs to get help, and the first thing is to get to safety,” he says. “The majority of people convicted of homicide are people who murdered a spouse or girlfriend, a lover or former lover or spouse,” says Bono. “I had never attempted to leave,” Richmond says, “because he said he would hunt me down and kill me and my family.” One night her husband was extremely abusive over the phone, and she decided it was then or never. “I knew if I didn’t get out that night I wasn’t going to live,” she says. Richmond got up the nerve to call her sister to come and pick her up. “I was terrified he was going to come home before they got there,” she says. “It was the first time I had told them of the abuse, but they had suspected it,” she says. “I called LACASA and they put me in a safe house. I had 25 cents in my pocket.” Her sister and brother-inlaw got the husband a oneway bus ticket out-of-state and drove him to the bus station. He has never returned. Domestic violence cuts across the socioeconomic spectrum, but its negative effects are most acutely felt by those of lesser means. Bono says the victim may feel trapped due to a lack of money - or the means of getting it - or job skills. “You may not have a place to stay and you have all these logistical problems,” such as lack of transportation, he says. Despite her efforts to forget the past, Richmond at times is forced to relive the bad memories, and has been diagnosed with post-traumatic stress disorder. Due to the intervention of LACASA, Richmond was able to get to a safe house and receive counseling and other help. She now assists at LACASA training sessions and has spoken publicly about her experiences. Tom Tolen can be reached at ttolen@ livingstoncommunitynews.com or at 810-844-2009.

Grand River Avenue will be closed from Center to Barnard streets from 3 to 11 p.m. Signage and police officers will reroute traffic to Sibley and Clinton streets. For a complete listing of vendor locations and street barricades, visit the Web site www.downtownhowell.org. ^SLEEPY HOWELL' FROM B1 Event has grown to draw folks from outside county nold. Members of the Howell City Council debated the street closure extensively before going along with the request more than a month ago, questioning the potential for traffic delays along the two secondary streets unaccustomed to carrying such traffic. “I will support this because I think it’s good to have the investment downtown and to bring people into the city, but I would like the police department to have a plan for good traffic flow in place,” said City Council Member Scott Niblock. Howell Police Chief George Basar responded with a plan that detailed the positioning of police officers and signs advising drivers of the street closures. The goal, said Basar is “to minimize inconveniences.” He added that the state Department of'Ihansportation approved the closure. Highlights of the evening, according to Arnold, will be hay rides and the 5 p.m. costume contest and parade, which travels along Grand River Avenue and ends at the front lawn of the Historic Courthouse. The lawn also will feature hundreds of carved and lighted pumpkins. Pumpkins can be dropped off on the courthouse lawn from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. “We’re not trying to break the world record anymore,” said Arnold, referencing past requests for pumpkins for a world record. The goal this year, she said, is to light up the downtown business district, add to festivities and give away prizes. Awards will be given for the scariest, funniest and most original pumpkin carvings and one that displays the best company logo. Everyone who drops off a carved pumpkin will be entered in a drawing for dinner and movie tickets for two in downtown Howell.

Labor of Love, into its regular programming. H o m e h e l p a v a i l a b l e Group will do repairs for the needy BY LISA CAROLIN N ew s S t a f f R e p o r te r Elderly, disabled and financially challenged residents of Livingston County have a new option when it comes to home repair. It’s called Labor of Love, and it’s a new ministry affiliated with Love In The Name of Christ. Labor of Love is hoping to incorporate with many of the 31 local partner churches that are part of Love INC. The Labor of Love ministry is an outgrowth of a ministry begun at Shepherd of the Lakes Church. The church has run a project day for the last three years on a spring Saturday. Projects include building handicap ramps; repairing roofing, siding and flooring; installing new kitchens, painting, plumbing and electrical repairs; cleaning and yard work, and safety inspections for smoke detectors, fire extinguishers and more. “The plan is to build the Labor of Love program to include ongoing services for emergency repairs,” says Katherine Janego, executive director of Love INC. “For this program, we ask that volunteers agree to provide only one day of repair services each year when it is convenient to their schedule.” Janego says the need for the service is great because elderly, disabled and poor people often cannot effectively maintain their homes. “Their homes are their primary source of security and independence,” says Janego. “While we live in an affluent area, there are many that need this a ssistance.” Janego says volunteers are invited from all of the Love INC partner churches to become involved in Labor of Love. Love INC, which started out as a coalition of seven churches in Livingston County in 2005, is now celebrating its second anniversary and helps more than 75 residents every month. Love INC is a clearinghouse where volunteers receive phone calls from people in the community with needs that range from needing help paying rent to needing help repairing a car.

Vicary chose to create autism awareness kits for the community service project that is a requirement to earn the Eagle Scout rank through Boy Scouts. “To become an Eagle Scout, you must have the ability to lead and direct others,” said Vicary. He spent more than 200 hours preparing and putting the kits together with the help of other Scouts.

Some include what Robert calls fidget toys such as manipulative cubes and pipe cleaners to keep kids stimidated. Others include a weighted mecJicine ball and some have accommodation packets with Post-it notes, scissors, crayons for organizational purposes. There are more than 50 Idts that will be passed out to LESA staff working in buildings in all the Livingston County school districts. “It took a lot of work and diligence on Robert’s part,” says his mom Mary Beth Vicaiy. “We’re very proud of him.” Lisa Carolin can be reached at lcarolin@ livingstoncommunitynews.com or at 810-844-2010. C h e f o u t t o d e v e lo p t a s t e s f o r h o s p i t a l f o o d Brighton man 1 of 3 chosen to compete nationally BY U S A CAROLIN T h e L iv in g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s When Brighton resident Dave Rensi headed to Chicago at the end of September as one of just three chefs chosen to compete in the national Battle of the Hospital Chefs competition, he had more than his own pride at stake. He also was striking a chord for the quality of hospital food. Rensi is the executive chef at St. Joseph Mercy Hospital in Superior Township and was chosen in a nationwide search based on creative meals that are heart-healthy, great tasting and cost under $4.95 per serving. For the competition, which benefited the American Heart Association and the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, Rensi prepared sesame maple salmon with Asian vegetable relish, basmati rice, and iced green tea. He received the bronze prize. Rensi says working in health care is important to him. “The best part of working in health care is knowing that feeding a patient is just as important as the treatments or medicine they receive,” says Rensi, whose hearthealthy suggestions include using ingredients like lemon juice and vinegar to bring out flavors rather than salt. Rensi says he likes to cook for his wife and children and expose them to as many foods as possible. As far as David Rensi, of Brighton, executive chef at St. Joseph Mercy Hospital in Superior Township, competed in the Battle of the Hospital Chefs last month. his own favorite foods, he says it runs in cycles. “I’m really into Indian foods at the moment,” says Rensi. “I love every food in the world except goat cheese. I will always try a new cheese but still haven’t found a goat cheese that I like.” Rensi says his favorite spice is cumin and his favorite herb is thyme. His favorite kitchen tool is a ten-inch French knife. Rensi began his culinary career as a teenager, watching television cooldng shows with Julia Child, Graham Kerr and Pierre Franey. “I was raised in a family Dave Rensi ■ Age: 38. ■ Occupation: Executive chef at St. Joseph Mercy Hospital in Superior Township. ■ Family: Wife, Melissa, and children Lydia, 13, and Chad, 8. ■ Home: Brighton. ■ Hobbies: Teaching part-time at Washtenaw Community College. ■ Currently reading: "Salt: A World History" by Mark Kurlansky. ■ Goals: "I would like to write a cookbook that includes the history behind certain foods." where food was always used to celebrate, and a reason to celebrate,” says Rensi. He graduated from Washtenaw Community College’s culinary program and worked as a sous chef at a country club. He was the executive chef at Cousin’s Heritage Inn in Dexter, and at the end of his tenure there, the restaurant was ranked fourth in the state by Gourmet Magazine. He worked at Cousin’s with Chef Greg Upshur. “I brought Dave in as an apprentice at Cousin’s, and then brought him in as a sous chef at Too Chez in Novi,” says Upshur. “Dave is a passionate cook. He loves food and he loves to cook, and he’s good at everything he cooks. He has high expectations of himself and those he works with.” Upshur has a personal endorsement for Rensi. “I asked Dave to be the m chef for my daughter’s wed- ^ ding last summer for more than 200 people, and it was a wedding to remember,” says Upshur. “That’s how important he is to me.” In 1999, Rensi opened the ^ Anjou Bakery in Brighton, ^ an authentic European-style bakery that featured more than 20 varieties of breads and a variety of pastries. He is currently the executive chef at St. Joseph Mercy Hospital in Superior Township, which serves more than 3,000 meals daily to patients, staff and guests. Rensi says he serves everything from flavorful comfort food to ethnic cuisines from around the world. He also teaches culinary arts at Washtenaw Community College. “I have my hands full working at St. Joe’s and institutional cooking is what I want to do,” says Rensi. “It’s m challenging. This is a big op- * eration with 65 employees and we are in the process of a five-year kitchen renovation as part of the hospital expansion.” Rensi says working as the ^ executive chef at the hospital 9 is a culinary goal he set out to accomplish.

The twins, who are members at Lakelands Golf & Country Club, regularly shoot in the 70s. BY JASON DEEGAN T h e L iv in g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s Fellow members at Lakelands Golf & Country Club tease Doug DeMarois about his swing. “Why isn’t it more like that of your boys?” they ask. DeMarois’ twin 11-yearold sons, David and Matt, are budding stars in golf. The two sixth-graders at Maltby Middle School practically live and breathe the game. David recently won player of the year honors in the 11- to 12-year-old division on The Meijer Junior Players Tour fall series, but Matt won the season-ending tour championship Oct. 13 at Walnut Hills in East Lansing just to prove he’s right on his brother’s heels. “We are very competitive rivals because we shoot around the same scores,” David said. “When someone else beats us, we argue.” The boys regularly score in the 70s, with David slightly more consistent. “We always try to beat each other,” Matt said. Lakelands members marvel at their dedication. The two are range rats around the club after school. The boys also practice on a grass putting green in the baclQEard of their Genoa Township home. Lakelands assistant professional Chris Tompkins said he and head professional Eric Martin team up “for a good little match” against the boys. The pros play best ball from the tips at 6,138 yards. The boys play scramble from the red tees at 5,370 yards. Tompkins, who earned a golf scholarship to Eastern Michigan University, said the twins are “head and shoulders” above where he was at that age. “They are out here every day. They are dedicated to it. They gave up soccer (for golf),” Tompkins said. “If I was the Brighton golf coach. I’d be excited to have these kids coming on board.” Pam DeMarois said her boys watch only The Golf Channel when they’re not playing. The twins will play basketball and take golf lessons this winter from Dave Kendall, one of the state’s top teachers who is based at Miles of Golf in Ypsilanti Township. David said he’s working on his putting; Matt on getting up and down. “My style of play, I attack the ball without tempo. I swing harder,” David said. “(Matt) he’s like Fred Couples or Ernie Els. He’s got good tempo.” Jason Deegan can be reached at jdeegan@ livingstoncommunitynews.com or at 810-844-2012. JAMIE CHARBENEAU-PISELLA. THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS Howell's Chris Simonson recently placed third in a Michigan Majors Bowling Association tournament in Bridgeport. His son. Matt, bowls with the Howell High program. Bowlers renew their zeal for sport Traveling circuit draws accomplished Howell-area keglers BY JASON DEEGAN T h e L iv in g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s Eddie Grace and Chris Simonson are back competing at a high level in the sport they grew up enjoying. Both -men recently rekindled their love for competitive bowling after years of focusing on their families and businesses. The two Howellarea men are participating regularly in the Michigan Majors Bowling Association, Michigan’s most prestigious traveling bowling circuit. The MMBA has weekend tournaments throughout the state for scratch bowlers. Neither has won yet, but the potential is there. Simonson was third at the Candelite Bowl in Bridgeport last weekend, with Pinckney’s Tim Rice (fourth) and Howell’s Scott Horton (eighth) close behind. “They are both very good bowlers, otherwise they wouldn’t be in this organization. We have the best bowlers in Michigan,” MMBA executive director Ken Charrette said. “They are both really good guys.

JASON DEEGAN T h e L iv in g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s H owell football coach Jim Webb doesn’t want his Highlanders to get caught up in the mystique of playing Detroit (Novi) Catholic Central. Howell hosts the seventhranked Shamrocks at 7 p.m. today at the Parker High School stadium in the most intriguing of the three first-round playoff games involving area teams. “We don’t get caught up in who we are playing,” Webb said. Howell’s tradition just can’t stack up against CC. The Highlanders have won just two postseason games in their history (in 1992 and 2001) and have never won a district title. The Shamrocks boast nine state championships since 1979 under coach Tom Mach, including three straight from 2001 to 2003. Will the Shamrock tradition spook the Highlanders? Howell senior linebacker Ryan Root, who has 56 solo tackles and 30 assists this season, said the matchup has “pumped everyone up.” Root said the seniors want to “create some memories and have a good time and go out with a bang.” “Our men realize they have a chance to leave a legacy here. That has been alluded to,” Webb said. “The opportunity is there. We have to go out and seize it.” Here’s a look at today’s 7 p.m. games: No. 7 Detroit (Novi) Catholic Central (7-2) at Howell (8-1) - Blocking University of Michigan commitment Mike Martin of CC will be top priority in the effort to spring Howell running back Richie Wilson, who has rushed 196 times for 944 yards and 19 touchdowns in eight games. “We want to do what we’ve done all season, possess the ball and score points,” Webb said. Prediction: DCC 20, Howell 17. South Lyon (6-3) at No. 8 Lansing Everett (8-1) - Winning 23-7 at Saline to get in the Division I playoffs has done wonders for the Lions. “Being 6-3 is a whole different feeling than 5-4,” said South Lyon senior running back Ian McGee, who rushed for 252 yards against NEWS FILE PHOTOS TRIO OF LOCAL TEAMS - Above, the Howell Highlanders scrimmage during a preseason practice at the Parker High School field.

Below left, Fowlerville senior running back Adam Powell, seen running in practice, could be one of best runners to ever play for the Gladiators. the Hornets to bring his season totals to 148 carries for 1,128 yards and seven touchdowns. “I remember being 5-4 my sophomore year. When you go into the playoffs with a win and you know that you play in a hard conference, it gives us some confidence and gives us some momentum. We feel like we can do well.” The Lions must contain Vikings quarterback Reggie Williams (1,296 yards throwing, 523 yards rushing) and solve a defense that allows only 8.9 points per game, including shutouts against playoff qualifiers Lansing and Lansing Sexton. South Lyon coach Mark Thomas said the playoffs has “recharged our energy.” “Our attitude is we can play with anybody,” he said. Prediction: Lansing Everett 30, South Lyon 20. No. 10 Fow lerville (8-1) at Adrian (7-2) - The Gladiators were snubbed in their dream of hosting a playoff game. Fortunately, Fowlerville’s senior class has experience winning pressurepacked playoff games away from home. The Gladiators won at Linden and Chelsea on the road to the Division 3 state semifinals in 2006. “Having so many returning (senior) starters, guys have enough experience and will know how to handle adverse situations,” junior linebacker Dillon Kem said. Fowlerville coach Jack Wallace said he’s been pleased with his defense, but stopping Adrian quarterback Brent Ohrman will be a test. He’s completed 116 of 197 attempts for 1,576 yards and 14 TDs and rushed for another 645 yards. “It concerns us a lot, when a quarterback has that ability to run and pass effectively. It puts more of a strain on our defense backs,” Wallace said. Prediction: Adrian 24, Fowlerville 12. Last week's record: 5-2. Best pick: Predicted score: Milford 35, Pinckney 17. Actual score: Milford, 42-14. Worst pick: Predicted score: Hartland 17, Dearborn 10. Actual score: Dearborn, 28-21. Season record: 34-14.

C2 THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS FRIDAY, O CTOBER 26, 2007 Nerf toss defies stiff winds to win prize M a l t b y t e a c h e r s a i l s b a l l t h r o u g h c a r w i n d o w f r o n n 1 5 f e e t a w a y BY STEPHENIE KOEHN N e w s S p e c ia l W r i t e r The Brighton Bulldogs may have taken it on the chin Oct. 19, with a 14-0 loss to undefeated Livonia Stevenson High School, but a Maltby Middle School teacher - who last played football in his freshman year at BHS - fared a little better. Charlie Christner will be enjoying commercial-free music, sports, news, talk and entertainment on an XM satellite radio that he won in the high school’s first Nerf Football Toss Contest, staged during halftime at the game. Christner threw the football through the open driver’s- side window of a sleek 2008 Pontiac G-6 from five yards away to win the prize. He also had a chance to win an X-Box 360 video game console if he had been able to score a bull’s eye from 15 yards or - the first prize - a two-year-lease on the car itself for nailing it from 30 yards away. Christner also received a STEPHENIE KOEHN, SPECIAL TO THE NEWS Charlie Christner takes a practice throw before attempting to throw a Nerf football through the open window of the new Pontiac G-6 in the background. If he had been successful from 30 yards away, the Maltby Middle School teacher would have won a two-year lease on the car. He missed, but got the ball through the window from five yards away to win a satellite radio. Nerf football and a Pontiac baseball cap for participating in the contest, a spinoff of the collegiate Pontiac Performance Plays Contest sponsored by General Motors’ Pontiac Division. The contest’s local sponsor was Waldecker Pontiac Buick of Brighton and Fowlerville. If Christner had won the top prize, Pontiac also would have donated $2,500 to Brighton High School. That Christner managed to get the ball in the window at all was something of a miracle: Stiff winds, gusting to as much as 35 mph, tended to blow the ball off course. “I tried to throw hard enough so that the wind wouldn’t offset it,” said Christner, who played baseball, not football, in college. He was allowed to throw some warm-up tosses while the band played prior to the contest. “This is pretty exciting,” Christner said afterward. “I’ve filled out entries for lots of contests like this, but my name never came up before. I wasn’t expecting it this time, either, and I even won a prize!” Christner was the only finalist, by virtue of having his name drawn from a pool of eligible contestants. “Charlie was a great sport to try this in 60-mile-perhour winds,” said Waldecker employee Rachel Foster, exaggerating a bit about the wind velocity after she introduced the contest. The Livingston Community News co-sponsored the event, along with XM Satellite Radio and XBox 360. BOWLING FROM C l 2 of Howell's top bowlers grew up around the sport win a tournament.” Eddie Grace, 37, who runs Grace & Porta Associates in Brighton with his father, said he’s been hot since coming out of a five-year retirement. His team finished fourth in the United States Bowling Congress Open Championships in Reno, Nev., in June. Individually, he tied for 40th, beating out nearly 80,000 bowlers who entered the tournament’s beginning stages in February. Earlier this month, he finished 19th in a Professional Bowler’s Association regional- tournament, the Executive Mortage Open in Bay City, a pro event one step below the national PBA circuit. Grace doesn’t want to bowl in too many PBA regional events because he would lose amateur status, so he stays busy with MMBA tournaments and a Thursday night traveling league in metro Detroit. His career highlights include a PBA regional title 17 years ago, sixteen 300 games and nine 800-plus series. Grace credits a recent lesson for fueling his comeback. “It never hurts to get help,” Grace said. “Tiger Woods is the No. 1 golfer in the world, but he still gets lessons. There was something missing.” Like Grace, Simonson, 36, grew up around the sport. He JAMIE CHAReENEAU-PISELLA.THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS Howell residents Chris Simonson, left, and Eddie Grace are two of Livingston County's top bowlers. They compete in the Michigan Majors Bowling Association, an elite league that hosts tournaments around the state. used to live within walking distance of the old Firebird Lanes in Waterford, where he would practice after school with a Mend. Simonson, who owns a local tile-marble installation company, also took some time off from the MMBA from roughly 1995-2000. He says his son, Matt, a sophomore in the bowling program at Howell High School, has renewed his enthusiasm to compete. He’s taken fifth twice at MMBA events this fall and bowls in leagues at Striking Lanes in Hartland and the 300 Bowl in Waterford. He has six 300 games and two 800 series over his career that includes representing Michigan at the Team USA nationals in California in 1992. Simonson said he enjoys bowling in the tougher conditions that the MMBA provides. “You have to make your spares and work to get good shots. I have really enjoyed this last month,” he said.

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 2, 2 0 0 7 www.mlive.com/livingstoncommunitynews Close twins turn rivals this weekend for big football game LEISATHOMPSON,THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS Michigan State University freshman Melissa Harless, left, and her twin sister. University of Michigan freshman Annabelle Harless, show their school colors. The twins graduated from Fowlerville High School and now attend the rival universities; Saturday is the annual football matchup between the two. Annabelle Harless goes to U-M;But Melissa Harless? She's a Spartan BY JASON DEEGAN T h e L i v i n g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s Except for the 60 seconds between their births, the Harless twins have always done things together. Melissa, who’s ever-so-slightly older, and Annabelle Harless grew up playing sports on the same teams but in different positions. The girls played volleyball and softball all four years, and basketball for three, at Fowlerville High School. They had the same class schedule their junior and senior years of high school. Their lives have changed dramatically this fall. Not only are they experiencing life apart for the first time, the 18-year- The big game ■ Who: No. 15-ranked Michigan Wolverines (7-2,5-0 Big Ten) at Michigan State Spartans (5-4,1-4 Big Ten). ■ Kickoff: 3:30 p.m. Saturday in Spartan Stadium, East Lansing. ■ TV: ABC. ■ Radio: WOMC-FM (104.3), WJR-AM (760), CKLW-AM (800), WTKA-AM (1050). ■ Early line: Michigan is favored by 4 1/2 points. ■ Of note: This will be the 100th game between the schools. Michigan holds a 66-28-5 advantage in the series. old twins are rivals in the football game that will grip the state this weekend: Annabelle is a freshman at the University of Michigan; Melissa at Michigan State University. The 15th-ranked Wolverines (7-2) play the Spartans (5-4) at 3:30 p.m. Saturday in Spartan Stadium in the 100th meeting between the Big Ten rivals. “ It ’s fun to have a rivalry,” said Annabelle, who predicted a 35-21 Michigan win. “We were so used to doing the same thing. It ’s nice to have something to tease each other about. It ’s always good to think your school is better than someone else’s.” Livingston County always has served as the buffer zone between the two schools. Fow lerville is just slightly to the M SU side of the midpoint between the two campuses. Jo h n Harless, the twins’ father, is flying a windsock outside his home that is half-Michigan, half-MSU. “ It ’s cool that they’ve gone in this direction,” he said.

Leach met Kennedy around the time they joined the Iron Mustangs Motorcycle Club - more than 30 years ago. “He’s one helluva guy,” he says. “He’s the best friend you’d ever want to know.” Leach said Kennedy constantly helps others - he helped him to build his house - and said Kennedy recently did a fundraiser to help raise money for Leach’s treatment for multiple sclerosis. “He’ll give you the shirt off his back. They broke the mold when they made him,” Leach added. Kennedy’s pro-military stance and his support of veterans earned Liberty her name. He and his wife, Marialice, got their dog just after the Sept. 11, 2001 terror attacks. Kennedy said he tried to re-enlist the day after the attacks, but was too old to serve, he says. “ I would have gone back.” S E E KENNEDY, A4 V o ter ID re q u ire d a t p o lls City councils seats, school board seats, bond issue on ballot ELECTION 2007 BY TOM TOLEN T h e L i v i n g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s Those Livingston County voters who will head to the polls 'Tuesday will need to show a photo ID card for the first time. A 1996 state law that was never enforced was upheld this summer by the state Supreme Court, requiring voters to produce a photo ID before poll workers can hand out a ballot. However, County Election Supervisor Joan Runyan said voters who have no driver’s license or other photo ID may still vote by signing an affidavit at their precinct polling place. The other option is to get an absentee ballot, which does not require a photo ID , R unyan said. The deadline to apply for an absentee ballot form to be mailed is Saturday at 2 p.m. Or voters may go in person to the historic county courthouse on Monday before 4 p.m. and complete an absentee ballot. 'Tuesday’s election involves only some of the county’s registered voters. There are city council elections in Brighton and Howell, plus a library issue in Putnam Township and education races in Unadilla Township and portions of Iosco and Green Oak townships. Howell City Clerk Jan e Cartwright said the city turnout is hard to predict. “Normally in the city, the election turnout is low,” she said. “However, with the competition for city council and mayor, it may be higher.” In 2005, the turnout was 9 percent. “ I think we’ll see a little bit higher than that, but not more than 20 percent,” Cartwright predicts. Five candidates are vying for three positions on the city council, three of whom are incumbents: Mayor Pro Tern Steve Manor, Tom Malloy and Scott Patton. The challengers are Matthew Wilson and Victoria Hertrich. In the race for mayor, incumbent Mayor Gerri Moen is being challenged by Jim Smullen. Also to be voted on is one Board of Review position, with Robert Wines the lone candidate. Brighton City Clerk Tammi Allen predicts “an average turnout” at the polls. “(That’s) S EE ELECTION, A4 INDEX Achievers B3 Calendar B4 Livingston Life B1-6 Real Estate & Building A5 Rick Fitzgerald's column B1 Scrapbook B2 Sports C l-2 Volunteers B3 To report news or for free home delivery call (810) 844-2000.

Cl A2 T H E L IV IN G S T O N C O M M U N IT Y N E W S FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 2, 2007 B r ig h t o n g e t s h i g h m a r k s in b ie n n ia l q u a l i t y - o f life s u r v e y i 'Overall service'in particular scores well BY TOM TOLEN T h e L i v i n g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s Most Brighton residents and taxpayers who responded to a poll - 89 percent - said the overall quality of life in the city is either excellent or good. That is up slightly from 2005, the year of the last biennial survey, when the figure was 88 percent. Also high in respondents’ estimation is the city’s overall appearance, 88 percent rating it as good or excellent. Respondents also gave an overwhelming thumbs up to the city’s safety, walkability and improvements in service delivery. “ I ’m gratified that the residents have recognized everything we’ve tried to do,” said Mayor Steve Monet. AsKed to rank the three most important issues facing Brighton, the highest percentage (34 percent) said “ controlling traffic,” followed by “ controlling growth” (27 percent) and “ crime-resident safety” (22 percent). In a related category, 75 percent rated Grand R iver Avenue traffic flow as fair or poor. The results were better on Main Street, with 38 percent rating traffic flow as good, 39 percent fair and 16 percent poor. “The City Coimcil members and city staff have always learned valuable lessons from this feedback in each of the surveys, dating back to the first one that was done in 1993,” said City Manager Dana Foster. Monet said the survey is invaluable to the city as a barometer, revealing what its residents are thinking, and helps in planning for the future. “ It gives us a score card - a report card - on how well we’re doing,” Monet said. The survey forms were mailed to both residents and city business property owners. Out of the 3,728 survey forms mailed out, 925 (or 25 percent) were returned, slightly higher than for the last survey. One of the most telling categories was “overall service,” where 76 percent rated city services as good or excellent (down from 79 percent in 2005). However, in a similar category, “ overall satisfaction with city government and the services it provides,” 73 percent responded with excellent or good, up from 68 percent two years ago. Monet said he was happy that 68 percent said they would be in favor of City Council meetings including a segment for answering questions submitted in advance. Half of those responding regarded a project that has provoked controversy - the Brighton Biennial outdoor sculpture project - as a cultural benefit. The nude statue “Decision Pending,” or at least its prominent location downtown at M ill Pond-Park, had provoked some criticism. Bu t asked if the Biennial had been a “positive addition,” 50 percent said yes and 25 percent no. Another 25 percent had no opinion. Asked to describe Brighton in one of a dozen ways listed on the survey form (such as safe, fiiendly or progressive), the highest response, 44 percent, went to being “ a place I enjoy living in.” Tied for the second-highest response (38 percent) were “ fast-growing” and “ a place I would recommend to other people to live.” Asked which services, programs or projects the city should spend more on, the most (26 percent) said “police services,” followed by 23 percent for “ sidewalks-bike paths.” In the “ spend less” category, the most, 29 percent, checked off “ civic and special events and promotional activities.” On street closures, 48 percent said they should be restricted to the “weekend,” and another 45 percent said it “ doesn’t matter.” Tom Tolen can be reached a t ttolen@ livingstoncommunitynews.com or a t 810-844-2009. 1 IN BRIEF Brighton Township Y a r d w a s t e d a y is s c h e d u le d A yard waste clean-up day has been scheduled for Saturday, Nov. 10, 8 a.m.-noon at Township Hall, 4363 Bimo Road.

Deputy Mark Klein will lead safety initiative for the Sheriff’s Department while Howell High School Principal B ill Smith and Associate Superintendent for Curriculum Jeanne Farina will spearhead the program among students. The statewide program, - Sheriffs Telling Our Parents and Promoting Educated Drivers, or STO PPED - invites parents of licensed teen drivers to register parent-owned vehicles for the program. If a registered vehicle is stopped by a law enforcement officer and has a driver under the age of 21, the parent-owner of the vehicle will be notified by mail of the time and location of the stop; the driver’s name and number of passengers in the vehicle; the reason for the stop; and the issuance of any citations. School officials hope to blend the program with fall school registration-orientation and parking-permit eligibility. An email may also alert parents to the program as teens become eligible for driver’s education and licensure. Klein is available to do presentations for both teen and parent audiences in schools.

School buses in Living ston County transport more than 19,000 riders, travel in excess of 4 million miles, consume more than 575,000 gallons of diesel fuel, and are supported by nearly 370 staff to provide such valuable services to the families in Livingston County. We commend the dedicated and hard-working members of the transportation departments for the extra steps they take to transport the students safely. We thank the families that wait with their children to make sure they get on the bus safely. We applaud the motorists in Livingston County for w aiting patiently for the school buses while they are loading and unloading students and for keeping a safe distance from the school buses when they are on the road. Transportation employees are often the first and last school employee students see each day. ■ They help begin a productive school day with a smile and are an important contributor to each school distric t’s learning program.

It is an opinion apparently shared by Howell city administrators and board members of the Downtown Development Authority, as the two groups have agreed to create a new position devoted solely to downtown revitalization. The position will be posted later this month. Howell City Manager Shea Charles said the additional full-time position is needed despite the tight economy, “based on the workload and things we’ve identified as future projects.” He added that the overall plan, which in the short term calls for three full-time employees - a DDA director, a Howell Main Street manager funded by the DDA and a community development director funded through the city - w ill transition to two full-time positions and one half-time position “ in the foreseeable future.” The change follows the August departure of Amy Connolly, who acted as Howell’s community development director and DDA director, each on a part-time basis, with her salary divided equally between the two agencies. Hesitant to give an exact time frame for the transition from three full-time employees to two and one-half, Charles said once the new DDA director is up to speed, he or she will oversee the budget, economic development, regulatory compliance, urban design, marketing and design, which are currently handled by Main Street Manager Mindy Arnold. Charles also calls the decision to replace Connolly with two people a key public relations move. As DDA director.

At left is her husband, Michael Smith. RICK FITZGERALD, THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS Fire heavily damages home of News reporter Popping sound heard coming from attic and sparks seen F r o m N e w s s t a f f r e p o r t s The Hamburg Township home of Livingston Community News Reporter Leanne Smith was heavily damaged by fire earlier this week. Smith, who also covers the Pinckney-Hamburg area for The News, said she grabbed her cat and her purse Sunday night, then went back into her house on Sunny Ridge D rive for her laptop computer. Smith said she had started a fire in the fireplace and was working in her home office at about 7 p.m. when she heard a strange popping sound in her attic and spotted sparks falling outside a window. B y the time she got outdoors, she said, fire had broken through the roof of the two-story brick home. Smith said a neighbor grabbed her rabbit and its hutch from the garage and placed her cars out of harm’s way. Debris covers the deck of the home of Michael and Leanne Smith after a Sunday night fire heavily damaged their Hamburg Township home. She said her husband, M ichael, was out of town Sunday night, so Hamburg F ire Chief Douglas Berry, who lives nearby, stayed at the fire scene until her brother-in-law arrived at about midnight. Smith said several firefighters retrieved many of her belongings - clothing, her grandmother’s furniture, family photos - while other firefighters were still fighting the fire, but the roof of the house is gone, and much of the rest of the house was damaged by smoke and water. A preliminary investigation indicates the fire started in the chimney where it goes through the attic of the house. The Smiths said they hope to find temporary housing nearby while their home undergoes extensive repairs. Hamburg OKs dust control program for 2008 A dust control program for Hamburg Township’s nearly 28 miles of gravel roads will be paid for from the general fund in 2008. The township paid about $47,500 to use brine for three treatments dust control on gravel roads this year, about half of what it paid the year before to use chloride, said Supervisor Cindy Pine. B y using brine again next year, the township’s Board of Thistees agreed it has the money to fund the program again. Other options included proposing a nfiUage to replace a 10- year millage that expired early this year or do nothing. Trustees were not in favor of raising taxes, but said doing nothing would have cost the township more due to gravel loss. Using figures provided by the Livingston County Road Commission, Pat Hohl demonstrated that gravel loss caused by high t r ^ c on untreated roads would cost the township about $137,500 annually. Tlaistees agreed to spend $20,000 for the first brine application around Memorial Day and make provisions to fund additional applications near Ju ly 4th and Labor Day out of the 2008-09 budget, which goes into effect Ju ly 1. ^ a n t s s t i c S a m s ' W H E R E F A S H I O N S E N S E M E E T S C O M M O N S E N S E • H A I R C U T S • P E R M S • C O L O R • W A X IN G Chilson Commons Shopping Center M-36 at C h ilso n Rd.

City administrators will collect applications for the new director’s job and create a matrix for board members of the DDA. They w ill run the interview process and will have the final say on hiring. “You can expect 50 to 60 applications,” said Charles, who recommended that the salary be based on the successful candidate’s qualifications. The position of community development director is expected to be posted within 90 days. Charles said the duties for that position are still under review.

Stabenow speaks to Brighton chamber Senator's 'u pbeat' ta I k touches on economy, health insurance B Y T O M T O L E N T h e L i v i n g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s Sen. Debbie Stabenow, speaking at a Greater Brighton Area Chamber of Commerce breakfast this week, offered updates on a number of issues, including health care and staying positive in the face of a poor state economy. She spoke to about 45 people Monday at the Genoa Woods Conference Center. “One of the most important things is (to) not give up,” the Michigan Democrat said. “Stay optimistic and keep pushing for those things that allow us to move forward.” Re-elected in 2006, Stabenow is a member of the Senate Finance, Budget and Agriculture committees. Stabenow’s comments on Congress and health insurance drew the biggest response from the audience. “We need a different way to structure it, so our people have the ability to get the same kind of health insurance that members of Congress get,” she said to strong applause. Congress has been criticized for the contrast between its members’ comprehensive benefit package and the lack of affordable coverage faced by millions of Americans. Stabenow spoke on the bipartisan agreement recently passed by Congress, but vetoed by President Bush, that would expand the State Children’s Health Insurance Program to provide coverage for about 4 million more children. “We’re spending $12 billion a month in Iraq, and I want to spend $7 billion a year” for children’s health care, she said. Stabenow said the veto has a good chance of being overridden. Stabenow said many bipartisan measures have been passed in Congress to address various issues, but such efforts usually go unnoticed because they are not controversial. “ It Sen. Debbie Stabenow spoke Monday at a Greater Brighton Area Chamber of Commerce breakfast. isn’t heard about because it doesn’t make good T y ” she said. Though a Republican, attendee Mike McManus, president of Micro Works Computing Inc. in Brighton, was pleased with many of Stabenow’s comments. “ I thought (her speech) was pretty encouraging,” he said. “ It ’s nice to hear of bipartisan solutions to issues, and I think she’s doing a credible job.” “ I thought she was very encouraging and especially her commitment to keeping a positive attitude and moving forward,” said Dennis Whitney, director of the Livingston County Small Business and Technology Development Center. “We have a lot of challenges we face, and (her talk) was pretty upbeat,” said Charlene Huget, former director of the Brighton District Library. Stabenow also touched upon the gradual switch from nonrenewable, polluting fossil fuels such as gasoline to fuels such as ethanol, saying Michigan has the potentid to be a world leader in that area. She said trade with other countries is important to get Michigan back on its feet, but that the playing field is not level. She criticized currency manipulation by Asian countries, especially China, “which undercuts us in everything.” “We in the Senate are working on new tools to fight it,” Stabenow said. “We need to make sure it’s a two-way street.” She praised the local community for efforts to bring a free wireless Internet service, expected to be available shortly after the first of the year in the Brighton area. “Whenever you do something, it’s really first class,” Stabenow said. Cheryl Johnson of Brighton Township, president of the Michigan Nurses Association, died Oct. 28. Activist U-M nurse Cheryl Johnson dies She served as president of Michigan Nurses Association B Y L I S A C A R O L IN T h e L i v i n g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s Cheryl Johnson, a longtime University of Michigan nurse who served as president of the Michigan Nurses Association, died earlier this week after suffering a stroke, said Katie Vioet, a spokeswoman at the University of Michigan Health System. Johnson, 57, lived in Brighton Township and had worked at the U-M Medical Center for 35 years. She was an advocate for nurses, was on the union bargaining team and held various union offices. “Cheryl was passionate, committed and loyal,” said Tom Bissonnette, a co-executive director of the Michigan Nurses Association. “ She was both a nurse and a patient advocate. She was progressively advancing her leadership at the local, state and national levels, and kept herself firmly grounded in bedside nursing for more than 30 years. We miss our fiiend and leader.” Margaret Calarco, senior associate director and chief of nursing services at U-M Medical Center, calls Johnson’s death a great loss. “Cheryl has worked in our critical care unit since 1972 and has touched literally thousands of patients and families’ lives,” said Calarco. “ She also taught thousands of new nurses as well. We have always regarded her as a leader of nurses and nursing, and she will be profoundly missed in those roles.” Calarco said Johnson worked with nursing groups across the state to improve staffing conditions for nurses. Johnson traveled around the country doing in-service programs for nurses, and was the president of the U-M Professional Nurse Council. She was inducted into the Michigan Nurses Hall of Fame in 2006, and was added to the Brighton Area Women’s Roll of Honor in 2007. Anyone interested in donating to the Cheryl Johnson RN Memorial F\md can send a donation to the Michigan Nurses Association, 2310 Jo lly Oak Road, Okemos, M I 48864.

Monroe County District Judge Terrence Bronson, appointed by the state to hear the case, ordered Ronald Plunkett to face trial, but noted that there are gaps in the case that is based on a relatively new and untested law - delivery of a controlled substance causing death. In addition to that charge, Plunkett, 51, faces two counts of drug possession and one count of maintaining a drug house. The charges resulted from a yearlong probe following the death of Tiffany Gregory in Plunkett’s Huron Towers apartment in Ju n e 2006. Meanwhile, Plunkett’s girlfriend, charged in the same overdose death, has been sentenced to prison. Tracy Corson, 22, of Howell, was ordered to serve 18 months to 15 years on a conviction for delivery of a controlled substance causing death, court records show. Gregory collapsed at an apartment in the 2200 block of R ille r Road and died at a local hospital on Ju n e 16, 2006, shortly before she was to be deployed to Iraq. The Ypsilanti woman’s cause of death was deemed accidental, and a mixture of cocaine, heroin and alcohol were found in her system, according to a medical examiner’s report. Shortly before her own sentencing, Corson testified against Plunkett. Corson pleaded guilty to the charge in July, and two additional drug-related charges were dismissed as part of the plea agreement. The case centers against Plunkett centers on his culpability for providing the money and transportation to purchase the drugs that killed Gregory. Corson testified in a hearing on Plunkett that she met Plunkett through a mutual drug dealer while she worked as a prostitute in February 2006. She moved into his apartment in late May, where they shared respective addictions to crack cocaine and heroin that cost roughly $200 a day. Corson wept while testifying that she introduced Gregory, a childhood friend she had recently become reacquainted with, to heroin. She recounted how she helped to prepare the dose that killed Gregory that night in Plunkett’s apartment. Dr. Yung Chung, a forensic pathologist with the KENNEDY FROM A1 Howell-area veteran says he's proud of those who serve Instead, he spends time helping local families in need by donating time and money, mostly through the Howell American Legion and his Vietnam Veterans of America chapter. “ I’m very proud of this generation and the soldiers - male and female - who are doing a really tough job,” he adds. In addition to helping veterans, Kennedy also assists others around town, according to Ken Noye, who owns Angelo’s Pizza & Deli at Mason and Burkhart roads who has known Kennedy for 16 years. Noye says Kennedy and his wife usually take care of a local family in need at the holidays and that Kennedy and Liberty sell Christmas trees at the American Legion post each year. Not only is Kennedy caring, but trustworthy, too. Although Kennedy restores classic Corvettes for a living, he also is a handyman at Noye’s store and has become a good friend. On one recent day, he was helping rebrick the business exterior. “ I do a little bit of everything. In this world, you’ve got to,” Kennedy says. “ I ’ll probably never be able to retire entirely.” “He kind of came with the store when I bought it,” Noye adds. “ Let me put it this way; He’s the only one other than my wife and my employees who has a key to this store.” When he’s not helping others, Kennedy has his regular routine. He and Liberty have taken their daily runs down to four days a week, following Liberty’s recent surgeries on her JAMIE CHARBENEAU-PISELLA.THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS Jeff Kennedy works on a friend's car as Liberty stays close by for a quick pat on the back. Kennedy works on Corvettes for a living, as well as doing numerous other odd jobs around the area. At left, the two take a late afternoon jaunt in Marion Township. Liberty has had some physical problems recently that have kept them from their daily runs. cruciate tendons - and just recently they’ve had to slow down due to a muscle problem in her left front leg. “All the time she was recuperating and I would go on my runs. It was amazing the people who would stop and ask about the dog,” he says of the dog’s recent injuries. Kennedy says whether he and his wife are in North Carolina visiting son, Patrick, who works for the Carolina Panthers N F L team, or up at their property near Gaylord, Liberty remembers previous visits. “ If she’s been to a place one time, she remembers where to go,” he says. To what does he attribute Liberty^’s good behavior? “Just a lot of love, a lot of devotion,” he says. “The main part is she’s really intelligent.” Casey Hans can be reached at chans® livingstoncommunitynews .com or at 810 -844-2005. TWINS FROM A1 Dad flies a windsock that's half U-M, halfMSU political science, so she could eventually attend law school. Melissa hopes to become a social studies teacher after earning her MSU degree. Annabelle will be visiting E a s t Lansing this weekend but only Melissa has a ticket to the game. Trash talk is expected. “ If we win. I ’m just going to tell her, Would you really expect M SU to beat us? Come on, we have Mike Hart and Chad Henne,” ’ Annabelle said. With some prodding, Melissa predicted a 21-14 Spartan victory. “Michigan’s a pretty good football team. We are not going that great,” she admitted sheepishly. “ If we bet. I ’d have to go with M SU.” The gamesmanship already has started. Melissa called Annabelle after U-M lost to Appalachian State. “My dad wanted me to,” Melissa recalled. “ I did, and I was just playing off innocent: ‘Was there a football game today? Who won? Who lost?” ’ Annabelle wore a Michigan sweatshirt, much to her sister’s dismay, on an earlier visit to MSU. Melissa retaliated by refusing to take her sister to an M SU volleyball game, paying her $5 to take it off. “ She was seriously getting 'It's nice to have something to tease each other about. It's always good to think your school is better than someone else's.' Annabelle Harless, U-M freshman about the college rivalry between her and twin sister, Melissa who attends MSU. mad at me,” Annabelle recalled. Still, even the fiercest football rivalry shouldn’t damage their relationship. Annabelle said the girls talk by phone every day. “ I miss her, but we talk a lot,” Melissa said. “We have Facebook (Web site pages). I t ’s not like we are completely isolated from each other. “ It ’s a big deal (our rivalry). It ’s funny, but at the end of the day, it doesn’t really matter.” 'We’ll see if that tune changes Saturday. Jason Deegan can be reached at jdeegan® livingstoncommunitynews.com or at 810-844-2012.

Gregory had three times the amount of morphine in her system than what’s typically associated with a recreational dose, Chung said. Holland Sizemore, one of Plunkett’s attorneys, scrutinized the different versions of the incident Corson gave to police in seven interviews. He also emphasized Corson was always in possession of the heroin. “There’s got to be a logical nexus between delivery to the death, and what you’ve got here is Mr. Plunkett allegedly funding heroin purchases for his girlfriend for weeks. It ’s her heroin,” Sizemore said. Chief Assistant Prosecutor Joseph Burke acknowledged Plunkett may have never possessed the drugs. Bu t he argued that Plunkett was responsible in the process that led to Gregory’s death, which the law now allows. “ Did he have the drugs in his hands? Probably not. Bu t it was his money, his car used to buy it, and his re la tionship with Corson that set this in motion,” Burke said. “ He was getting it into her blood so she would do things he wanted her to do. He’s responsible.” S t a t e b u d g e t c u t s w i l l a f f e c t M a x e y 130 workers may be transferred F r o m T h e A s s o c i a t e d P r e s s A medium-security section of the W J. Maxey Boys Training School in Green Oak Township will close under a state budget deal reached early Wednesday that ends a nine-month fight over tax increases and spending cuts. But more than 130 affected workers would be allowed to transfer elsewhere in the Department of Human Services instead of losing their jobs. The closure will mean 60 youthful offenders would be moved to private facilities. The Republican-led Senate and Democratic-controlled House finished passing the last remaining budget bill at 4:20 a.m. after waiting hours for it to be printed. A compromise was reached on the last sticking point; 'Turning over more of the state’s adoption, foster care and juvenile justice services to private hands. Legislators and the Gov. Jenn ifer Granholm had until midnight Wednesday to trim $433 million from proposed or current spending and avoid another partial government shutdown such as the one that occurred in the early hours of Oct. 1. All 17 budget bills had been sent to Granholm as of early Wednesday morning. The final agreement came a month after Granholm and lawmakers passed $1.3 billion in tax increases and gave themselves an extra 30 days to resolve the spending plan. K-12 public schools would get an average increase of 1 percent in per-pupil aid, with poorer districts receiving more for each student than wealthier districts. Other bills would give 1 percent more to universities and community colleges and fund departments overseeing state parks, prisons, courts, agriculture, road construction and the environment. Young adults and others wouldn’t be kicked off Medicaid, the government health care program for the poor. The budget fight isn’t completely over because legislators avoided disagreements over whether to increase fees by delaying the decisions until later.

The audit for the 2006-07 fiscal year showed assets of about $11 million and liabilities of $8 million. “Overall, very outstanding,” said auditors, who told the board Oct. 22 that the school district was helped last year by an increase in state aid stemming from an enrollment increase and more at-risk money. However, the board was cautioned that the situation will be more serious in the current fiscal year because of a decline in student population and other factors. The district also showed a larger ending fund balance than the previous year of $3.3 million. Assistant Superintendent for Business Rick Terres said Howell had been fimgal in its economic planning, and it had paid off. “We’ve made the hard call, we’ve made.the reductions,” he said. The expected decline in 2007- 08 state aid will be moderated by the fact that the state uses a “blended count” - a formula incorporating both the February and September student enrollment figures - in computing per-pupil aid. This year, Howell is getting an estimated $7,100-$7,200 in per-pupil state aid, called the base foundation grant. The board was told the bulk, or 89 percent, of district revenues go toward employee wages and benefits, leaving just 11 percent for direct educational needs, regarded as typical for Michigan public school districts. Due to the summer nonhomestead property tax collection, begun in 2006, the district did not need to borrow to meet ^ payroll and other expenses between August and October; (when the first state aid payment arrives), saving interest charges. Nonhomestead property is commercial property and secondary homes, while homestead property is the landowner’s primary residence. The district collects 50 percent of homestead taxes in the summer and 50 percent in the winter. B r a d y e a r n s s t a t e h o n o r s Professional from Brighton nametd Commercial Realtor of the Year for 2007 REAL ESTATE & BUILDING BY LISA CAROLIN T h e L i v i n g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s Take a drive on Best Buy Drive in Brighton and you can’t miss the name Kevin Brady. The commercial real estate agent and principal at Lee & Associates of Michigan, has property for sale in and around the Brighton area. His name has a new recognition: He was recently named the state’s 2007 Commercial Realtor of the Year by the Commercial Board of Realtors, which has more than 620 members. “ It ’s nice to get an honor lik§ that,” says Brady, who has chosen only to work in commercial real estate. “1 didn’t want to work nights and weekends. I like working with owners and presidents of companies and trying to find solutions.” Brady worked his way into commercial real estate working in the land development division of Grubb & Ellis in Southfield in 2001. He says the company had an eye on expansion in Livingston County, and Brady met with farmers and developers. After the terrorist attacte of Sept. 11,2001, Brady says the market struggled, and he got involved in retail sales. In 2005, he and several others started Lee & Associates in Southfield. They soon opened an office in Brighton, and an office in Novi. Lee & Associates has 33 locations around the country with five in Michigan, all of which Brady is now a principal in. “Livingston County on a percentage basis outpac^ the rest of the state in terms of growth up until the last year-and-a-half when housing development tanked and affected all aspects of the market,” says Brady.

LISA CAROLIN,THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS Kevin Brady, a principal at Lee & Associates in Brighton, was named the Michigan Commercial Board of Realtors' 2007 Realtor of the Year. an honorable and truthful person and an all-around good guy.” Brady grew up in Genoa 'Township and attended both St. Joseph School in Howell and St. Patrick School in Brighton. He graduated fixjm Detroit Catholic Central High School (formerly located in Redford Township) and then graduated from Michigan State University with a degree in materials and logistics management. He went to work in California for a semiconductor equipment manufacturer and traveled around the world building research and development and manufacturing facilities. As exciting as the experience was, Brady says he wanted to come home and be with his family, and moved back to Michigan to work for a construction company as a project manager in St. Claire Shores. His dad told him land development was' going strong in Livingston County and that’s when Brady decided to get involved with commercial real estate. Brady recently became a Certified Commercial Investment Member, a designation achieved by just 5 percent of the commercial real estate agents nationwide. He says he’s achieved his professional goal, owning his own company. “ I don’t see Brighton growing into a big city,” says Brady. “There will be more redevelopment- type projects because there isn’t that much vacant land. More biotech and medical sales and manufacturing companies are coming into town, and that’s a good sign of diversification.” “There’s been less demand for retail. We’re hoping the market is at the bottom or veiy near it.” Brady also is the president of the Brighton Rotary Club. “ It ’s an extremely rewarding experience and a complete joy to work with the movers and shakers of Brighton,” says Brady. “ I like that this community is small enough to walk around town and say ‘hi’ to people and progressive enough to have a sushi bar.” “ I sponsored him for Rotary when he joined a few years ago, and now look at him - he’s president,” says Jim Barnas, owner of Contracting Resources in Brighton. “ Kevin is a wonderful guy. He’s very ethical, professional and businesslike.” Brady’s friend, Mark Marker, a senior account executive for Metropolitan Title in Brighton, also Imows Brady professionally and through the Rotary Club. “Kevin’s a wonderful guy, and a gentleman through and through,” says Marker. “He’s L is a C a r o lin c a n b e r e a c h e d a t lc a r o lin @ liv in g 5 to n c o m m u n it y n e w s .c o m o r a t 8 1 0 - 8 4 4 -2 0 1 0 .

Lu & C a rl’s, at West Main and Grand R iv e r Avenue and Stout, just a block away at 125 E . Grand R iv e r Ave., have been sold by Chris Angelosante to Mike Abrams, a well-known name in the southeastern Michigan sports bar scene. Closing on the properties w ill not take place until the liquor licenses are transferred, Abrams said. In the interim, his company is managing the properties. Abrams is the owner of Snooker’s Pool & Pub, a chain of five sports barspool halls in the metro Detroit area, and also owns McVee’s Restaurant and Mr. Jo e ’s, both in Southfield. Abrams said he was attracted to Brighton because it ’s a live ly town with a lot of ambiance. “ I ’ve never had a business in Brighton before,” he said. “ I like the community, it ’s a growing community.” “ It was just a good opportunity and a good time to sell the restaurants,” said Angelosante. “ (Abrams) liked them and he bought them.” Lu & C a rl’s opened in August 2000, and Stout opened on St. Pa trick ’s Day 2003.

Chris Angelosante,former owner of Lu & Carl's and Stout Irish Pub in downtown Brighton home in Milford, Angelosante said he is confident his Brighton establishments w ill be in good hands with its new owner. “Mike Abrams is a great guy, an excellent restaurant operator and has a great deal of enthusiasm for the Brighton area,” he said. Abrams says he w ill re model Lu & C a rl’s, but w ill keep the name. “ I like the concept, but I ’d like to give it a shine,” he says. “ I t ’ll be sim ilar to what it is now, with new tables, chairs, new rest rooms, new TVs.” According to the state L iquor Control Commission, a request has been made for a class C liquor license with food, dance-entertainment, outdoor service and Sunday sales, from Brighton Appeteaser Inc. to Bim a B a r L&C Inc. An LC C spokeswoman says the application is under review and w ill require a recommendation for approval by the Brighton City Council and Police Department. In addition to Lu & C arl’s, Angelosante also has disposed of his first, and the best-known of his five restaurants: Appeteaser in M ilford. Angelosante said Tuesday he also had just sold Lu & Ruby’s in Milford, but declined to name the buyer. He also owns F la t ’s B a r and G rill in Milford, which also is for sale. Angelosante said with the sales of most of his business properties, he is now going to take a breather. “ I ’m going to take a little time off,” he said. The new owners of Appeteaser - to become Coratti’s On Main (with Ita lian fare) - are M ichelle and Daniel Pfeffer and Pete Coratti. Michelle Pfeffer, Coratti’s sister, says once the liquor license transfer is approved they w ill close the restaurant for remodeling and hope to re-open by Dec. 1. Meanwhile, Dave Be au champ, who has put his Champ’s Pub in downtown Brighton up for sale, says although he has two in te rested parties the popular restaurant and bar has not been sold. “All businesses have a cycle, so I ’m not surprised to see some ownership changes,” says Brighton Downtown Development Authority Administrator Dennis Whitney.

While the number of homeless dogs rises, the number of volunteers and donations is going down, officials say. “We saw an increase in owners surrendering dogs last year, and it’s gotten tremendously worse this year,” says Andrea Crawford, kennel manager at Last Chance Rescue. “There Last chance Rescue ■ What: A nonprofit group committed to finding permanent homes for animals. ■ Where: The agency has a kennel on Byron Road off Cohoctah Road, Cohoctah Township. ■ Adoption events: Saturdays, 11 a.m.-4 p.m., at Tractor Supply Co. in Genoa Township; Petsmart store in Brighton Saturdays, noon- 4 p.m. (cats) and Sundays, noon-4 p.m. (cats and dogs.) ■ Details: 810-220-9394; on the Web at www.

Pets are family members, but what can they do?” Crawford says Last Chance Rescue had a dog food drive last weekend because supplies are so low. She says the agency is a nonprofit, no-kill group, so donations are critical to keeping the agency afloat. “We hold on to animals until they find forever homes, which can take a long time,” says Crawford. “We’re in need of everything. We need foster families to take care of puppies because we insist on putting puppies in foster homes instead of a kennel. The foster families we have are full.” Sarah Mews, operations manager at the Humane Society of Livingston County, also is seeing a drop in adoptions and a rise in the number of requests for help. “ Because money has been so tight in many households, our monetary contributions are on the decline,” says Mews. “ It ’s causing us to try to come up with new and innovative ways to recruit volunteers, fundraising parAt the Last Chance Rescue kennel, volunteer Bill Strong is having a quiet moment with Harley Charlie a 7-year-old lab mix. Strong, of Brighton, started volunteering a little over two years ago at the rescue kennel. ticipants, and those who can contribute supplies or financial donations.” Mews says the struggling economy also has caused a decline in the number of volunteers at the Humane Society because many people have to take on paying jobs and no longer have the luxury of having time to donate. Anne Burns, director of L iv ingston County Animal Control, says the economy is having an effect on the number of animals they’re seqing. “We’re investigating more abandonments than usual,” says Burns, “but this time of year, we always get a lot of animals turned in, like kids who got a puppy in the summer are going to college, or people who don’t want the outdoor barn cats hanging out in the cold.” JAMIE CHARBENEAU-PISELLA, THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS Crawford says Last Chance Rescue is getting pleas from shelters for help because otherwise the shelters are forced to destroy the dogs. Crawford says the mission of La st Chance Rescue continues to be to rescue, rehabilitate and re-home animals. She says, “This is an indication of a long-term problem, and is very scary. What we’re experiencing is devastating.” i Museum Adventure Pass gives library patrons free access to state cultural attractions From News staff reports Thanks to the local library, you can now check out a wide range of southeast Michigan’s cultural attractions for free.

Members play instruments that sometimes look homemade. Musicians come and go as they please during rehearsals or shows. Most are retirees, who don’t always know everyone else’s first name. Nevertheless, they come together as part of the Livingston Acoustical Musical Society, and they are a group in demand for local gatherings. There are no formalities among the members of this group of musicians, but there also is no competition among the musicians that participate only as often as they like.

People are notified of scheduled p ractices and shows through e-mail and phone calls, but it is ultimately up to the individuals to decide whether or not to go. “ The purpose of the group,” says Tony M iceli, veteran LAM S member and guitar player, “ is S E E LAMS, 82 The Livingston Acoustic Musical Society often played the blues during Saturday jam sessions at Lakewood Church of Christ on Latson Road, south of M-59. They also played folk, country, rock and roll and classical music. Today, the group is luclQf to play anything at all after losing their home next to the Oceola Township Hall. The church, which had accommodated them for 14 years, went up for sale last spring. “ Since the church is for sale, we are in the position of trying to find a new home,” said Tony Miceli, LAM S member and guitar player. “We’re looking for somebody to just let us use their building once a month.” Miceli, a retired Fowlerville veterinarian , has contacted several organizations with buildings that could help the group, but to no avail. “They want to charge us $50, but we don’t charge dues (to our members,)” iie said. “When (Rev.) Hayden Carruth started the group in 1991, he didn’t want anyone to be limited because they couldn’t pay.” Consequently, the group does not have a budget; they also do not receive fees for their performances that include a show during the annual F a ll Fest in September at the Fow lerville Fairgrounds. Anyone able to provide meeting space for the group is encouraged to call Miceli at 517-223-9590.

The Oceola Township couple no longer live by a schedule. They live by a map, a whim and a dream. The Whites live in their 37-foot Dolphin Class A recreational vehicle while visiting small towns across the country, attending free outdoor concerts, hitting the four-wheel drive trails and touring historical theaters. I t ’s a lifestyle that affords them the chance to tra ve l anywhere, anytime while enjoying the comforts of home. The Whites talked about their travels before they headed out of town last week. “ I t ’s nice because you get to stay in your own bed every night, and you don’t have to wonder, ‘Did they wash these sheets,” ’ joked M a rilyn White, a retired medical claims adjuster.

B2 T H E L IV IN G S T O N C O M M U N IT Y N E W S FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 2, 2007 LAMS FROM B1 Musicians join in at practice whenever they wish just to share our God-given musical talents and appreciation for music, song and other forms of joyful noise.” Rehearsals, much like the performances, are informal with musicians sitting wherever they like, even among the crowd. There is no conductor, or lead musician. E v e ry member, in a roundrobin format, is invited to pick a song, call the key and start the melody. “ If other musicians know it, they jump in,” playing by ear or sheet music, says M iceli, a Fow lerville resident and re tired veterinarian who says he’s 39. Melodies can range from folk to rock and roll, from classical to country, from blue grass to ethnic. Sometimes there is singing, sometimes there is not. There are no rules, other than to “ have fun” and keep it “ fit for family,” Miceli says. “We all have different styles of music, but we all play together and just try to have fun,” says Dave McClure, of Brighton. A retired singer-songwriter-composer, M cClure has played with LAM S for four years, after working 15 years in the music industry in New York. “ Some of these people are re ally talented,” he says of the group, which has catered to every ability level from beginner to advanced since its creation in 1991. Many of the musicians play a variety of nonelectric instruments, sometimes in the same song, so it is not uncommon for members to have several instruments sitting nearby. McClure, 59, plays guitar, banjo, harmonica, tambourine, cow bell, maracas, spoons, crow call, duck call, goose call and a washboard. “ I found this in my neighbor’s trash,” he jokes demonstrating the sound of a washboard. M iceli, who also plays mandolin, says the group supports musical exploration and the sharing of knowledge. “Many (of our members) are accomplished players in one instrument; and at the same time, are rank beginners at trying to learn to play another.” Started by the Rev. Hayden Carruth, of Hardy Methodist Church on M-59 in Oceola Township, LAM S was created to offer jam sessions “ in a safe, relaxed, wholesome atmosphere ... suitable for families.” , As word got out about the group, membership grew and bookings were made. LAM S is regularly requested for area performances in Nashville, Byron, and Haslett and many of the members also play in Lansing and Bancroft as part of other music organizations. That became especially beneficial because rehearsals have been hard to schedule after the group has lost its home. “ Everything for us is (pretty much) on hold until we find a new home,” says Miceli. Thirteen of the members were able to meet Oct. 12 at the historic Green Church at the Fowlerville Fairgrounds. It was the first meeting since their annual performance at the Fow lerville F a ll Fest a month earlier. Despite the longer-thannormal break from one another, the typical melodies and camaraderie filled the room, says McClure. The only thing different was the wood-burning stove that marked that changing of seasons and kept the group warm and their fingers nimble as they moved along the strings of violins, guitars, banjos, auto-harps and more.

WHITES FROM B1 Couple to travel through Northwest during latest trip but it is not as rustic as one might imagine, says B ill White, a retired occupational and health consultant. Their current RV, a used one they picked up two months ago, features a bedroom, bath and shower, sitting room and kitchen. With plans to travel nine months this year, up from seven last year, the Whites rent their Oceola home to one of their daughters. It cuts her expenses, and “makes it affordable (for us) to tra ve l,” said B ill White. He documents their trips in scrapbooks as well as on a color-coded map, which loosely serves as the road map for upcoming adventures. In an attempt to spend one night in every state within the United States, (the crite ria by which they color in states on the map), the couple are focusing their attention on the Northwest. “We’ve been to two-thirds of the United States,” said B ill White. “ This year, we w ill hit California, Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Wyoming and South Dakota.” B ill, 70, and M arilyn, 61, both “ grew up in families that liked to travel,” he said, and they also traveled regula rly with their children. M arilyn White says that the expanding memberships of the clubs they belong to, and articles in magazines indicate that R V travel is a growing trend. Among their favorite stops is southern Lo uisian a’s Cajun country, based on the food, the music and the culture. They also enjoyed the serenity found camping in A rizona and Utah, the beauty of Alaska and adventures in Florida. “We like everywhere we are,” said B ill White, who in the past couple of years started sharing items from his scrapbook with Livin g ston County friends like Roger Dresden, member of the Livingston Arts Council and one of the organizers for the free Concerts at the Courthouse in Howell. “ B ill White is one of the founding fathers of the ffee JAMIE CHARBENEAU-PISELLAJHE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS Bill and Marilyn White travel the county in an RV for most of the year, visiting a variety of places. outdoor Concerts at the Courthouse,” said Dresden. At Dresden’s request. White identified features he had seen work successfully at outdoor concerts around the country for possible implementation in Howell. “We’ve been working on crowd-control ideas, and this year, we w ill have some food vendors,” said Dresden, crediting White in part for the planned improvements. Other areas that could be tweaked locally in the near future include advertising, sponsorships and announcements. Dresden said that White also had a hand in determining the lineup for next summer, which w ill focus on six and eight-piece show bands. Concert tips for the LA C are not the only ideas gleaned from the W hites’ years of travels. They also have discovered some key approaches to make the most out of their trips.

Pictured here are junior Aiyssa Laforge and senior Bobby Ventura. S t o c k s g a m e b r i n g s d i v i d e n d s H a r t l a n d t e a c h e r d e m y s t i f i e s t h e m a r k e t f o r h i s s t u d e n t s BY U SA CAROLIN N e w s S t a f f R e p o r t e r w } hen Christopher Anderson, a sixth-grade teacher at Hartland’s Farms Intermediate School, rang the opening bell at the New York Stock Exchange on Aug. 21, he was also striking a chord for his own passion, the Stock Market Game. Anderson is the Michigan coordinator for the Stock Market Game, something he first started playing with his class seven years ago. “ I was asked to be the state coordinator four summers ago, and have been working with people at the headquarters for the Stock Market Game in New York City and training teachers all around Michigan ever since,” says Anderson, who says he is self-educated when it comes to investing in stocks. “ For our fall game, we have 1,500 teams in the state and about 100 teachers, and the spring game has three times that number.” Anderson says the game is for students in elementary school through high school. Each game session lasts 10 weeks, and each student gets a portfolio of $10,000 to spend. Hartland High School marketing and business teacher Nathan Oake currently has more than 300 students participating in the Stock Market Game. “ Some students take the games seriously and, for some, it’s a first experience to dabble in the market,” says Oake. “ It shows you how to prepare when you really want to invest in the market,” says junior Meghan Dean. Junior Aiyssa Laforge says, “You learn to take a risk but still be smart about it.” “ I ’m not going to make a career out 'Some students take the games seriously and, for some, it's a first experience to dabble in the market' Nathan Oake, Hartland High School marketing and business teacher who has students participating in the Stock Market Game of the stock market but I ’d like to make some money on the side,” says senior Bobby Ventura. Oake says it’s been helpful having Anderson in the school district and that Hartland High School has had finalists in the national Stock Market Game competition for the last three years. “What Chris has done for students at the middle school is starting to show its face because I get students he has had who are already familiar with the game,” says Oake. Anderson says the Stock Market Game began 30 years ago, but really took off 10 years ago when it went online. It ’s now offered in all 50 states and in some Other countries. “ It ’s important to educate our kids in personal finance,” says Anderson. Oake, who just started teaching a new course at Hartland High School called building wealth, says, “ I think it opens students’ eyes to the need to save and invest for their future and to learn to use money and time to grow their savings. “ Time is on their side at this age.” Lisa Carolin can be reached a t lcarlin@ living5toncommunitynews.com or a t 810-844- 2 0 1 0 .

The sophomore at Washtenaw Community College has made his own horror film. “ I wrote the script for it and worked on it with two of my friends who also graduated from Brighton High School, Dane Kelly, who co-produced it with me, and Brandon Danowski, who is currently editing it,” says Draugelis, who lives in Brighton Township. “We filmed it at a lot of stores in Brighton, including Coney Jo e ’s at Main and Grand R iv er, and Music Man on Grand River and 01d-(US)23.” Draugelis says the movie is about a couple of friends who go looking for a stray dog after a friend of theirs was attacked by the dog. They come across a dog trainer, an unsavory character with shady practices. “ Some of what we did to get the movie done was just insane,” says Draugelis. “We resorted to getting our actors by asking women in stores if they wanted to try out. We actually found someone who had gone to film school. Brighton is a real art-friendly town. People were very understanding of young guys walking around ■ COURTESY, JAKE DRAUGELIS Dane Kelly, Stacy Newman and Jake Draugelis in a scene in Draugelis' new horror movie.

Draugelis says they used a digital video camera but through tricke ry made the film appear to have several cameras. He and his friends want to take the movie around the country and enter it in film festivals, including the Brighton Film Festival. “We want to get a contract to do a major production,” says Draugelis, who started making movies as a high school freshman. He is studying criminal justice and theater in college and says his career goal is to be an actor or a writer or even a police officer. He has family members who work in film production, w riting’ and others who are in law enforcement. Would he make another movie in Brighton? “ If I ever have to shoot another movie with the budget I have now. I ’d shoot it in Brighton,” says Draugelis. “Our budget was well under $1,000 and we spent it on keeping the camera running and on gasoline.

Entertaining the crowds, from left, were dancers Lakia Browe, Marquise Morgan and Kendra Rawls.

Many of the costumes were partially covered, due the seasonal chill and occasional wind gusts that could cause those with long hair to momentarily lose their sense of direction in the middle of the crowd. But no one seemed to mind as the Halloween fans walked from candy station to candy station, or waited in line for the free tractor-pulled hay rides.

Nobody seemed to mind that either, being more interested in the atmosphere, the live music and the various vendor tables set up along Grand River. Police Chief George Basar said that traffic flowed smoothly during the six-hour closure of Grand River Avenue. There were no reports of crashes, excessive delays, or long lines of diverted traffic. “We got comments from folks (coming) in town that they couldn’t tell something was going on until they got right up here,” said Basar, referring to the street barriers.

The Howell Highlanders, who shared their & s t Kensington Valley Conference title since 1994 with Novi, were humbled by Novi Detroit Catholic Central, 38-0. The South Lyon Lions were humiliated by Lansing Everett, 43-0. The Fowlerville Gladiators, dreaming of a long run, were rudely bumped off in the first round, losing at Adrian, 30-14. All there is left for players and fans is the dreaded long winter ahead. Let’s reminisce with a look bade ■ Game of the year: Fowlerville’s 21-20 win over Williamston in overtime. Senior Jo e Lane was the hero catching the winning pass and also making a key defensive play in overtime. ■ Coach of the year: Howell’s Jim Webb. The Highlanders played consistently well, despite a dangerous, balanced league that never allowed players to relax. ■ Offensive player of the year: Howell senior running back Richie Wilson. The KVC player of the year rushed for 959 yards on 208 carries, with 19 touchdowns. South Lyon’s Ian McGee, the runner-up, rushed 156 times for 1,151 yards and seven scores. ■ Defensive player of the year: Howell’s Ryan Root. The senior had 56 solo tackles and 30 assists during the regular season. Runner-up: Brighton defensive end Nick Gaujanian. ■ Best two-way player: South Lyon RB-LB Dan Vess. The senior rushed 167 times for 932 yards and 11 scores and had 65 tackles and two fumble recoveries on defense. ■ Lineman of the year: Howell’s Sam Holton. The senior tackle led a senior-laden offensive line that allowed the Highlander offense to roll up roughly 300 yards per game, incluctog 200 on the ground. Runner-up: South Lyon senior tackle Chris Groth, a potential Division I recruit, was slowed by injuries. ■ Receiver of the year: Hartland’s Greg Matthyssen. He caught 38 passes for 576 yards and five TDs. ■ Kicker of the year: Howell’s Craig Heger. The senior made eight of nine field goals, including a state-best 53-yarder this season, and made 24-of-27 extra points. The three he missed were blocked, partially due to bad snaps. “He’s the best kicker in the state,” Webb said. ■ Newcomer of the year: Hartland quarterback Chris Cagle. The junior transfer from CC passed for 1,492 yards and 12 scores and rushed for 510 yards and nine scores. He made the Eagles (3-6) a threat in every game. ■ Fast fact: A brutal schedule derailed Brighton (3-6). All six losses were to playoff teams, including state-ranked Rockford and Livonia Stevenson. ■ A glimpse ahead: With the KVC merging to become the 24-team Kensington Lakes Activities Association, the schedules will look much different, and so could the standings of the West division involving Livingston County’s teams (excluding South Lyon and South Lyon East). Hartland is the only local team returning a starting quarterback (Cagle). That leaves serious questions, but watch for the Eagles and Highlanders. ■ My final picks record: 37-14.

CROSS COUNTRY PHOTOS:ALAN WARREN,THE LWINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS Brighton freshman Kristen Emmorey, seen here leading the Kensington Valley Conference meet Oct. 22, could earn all-state honors Saturday at the Division I state meet. She's already run to KVC and regional titles. Nearing the finish line Pirates are favored to win 3rd state title BY JASON DEEGAN T h e L i v i n g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s After running hundreds of miles together over their careers, Pinckney Community High School seniors Brian Hankins, Matt Brunner, Ja k e Hohl and Mike Katsefaras want their senior seasons to end with a memory they’ll never forget. The Pirates lead the local contingent heading to the Michigan High School Athletic Association cross country state finals Saturday at the Michigan International Speedway in Brooklyn. Pinckney is favored to win its third straight Division I state championship, with Ann Arbor Pioneer and Saline as challengers. The Brighton girls team could win a Division I title as well, with the right racing tactics and a superior performance from a balanced lineup. S E E PINCKNEY, C2 Brighton girls aim high with help of mom, coach Pinckney's Mike Katsefaras, seen here winning the Kensington Valley Conference meet Oct. 22, has emerged in recent weeks to become one of the favorites for an individual state championship Saturday at the Michigan International Speedway. He was second in the state a year ago. BY JASON DEEGAN T h e L i v i n g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s Krys Brish was running out of energy. The 44-year-old mother of three from Brighton Township felt like her legs were failing down the stretch of the 30th annual Detroit Free Press-Flagstar Marathon Oct. 21. Her morale was dragging, too. Where was her support crew? Finally, past the 25-mile mark, she spotted her daughter, Samantha, and four other members of the Brighton girls cross country team. They finished the 26.2-mile race with her. “That really helped me,” Brish recalled. “They cheered me on that last mile. I felt I had nothing left.” A day later, Brish, tight legs and all, was the one cheering. She watched as the Bulldogs captured the Kensington Valley Conference championship in dominating fashion at the Majestic at Lake Walden in Hartland Township. Brighton freshman Kristen Em morey won the individual KVC title with four teammates among the top 12. Brish joined long-time Brighton girls cross country coach Gary Meehan as a volunteer assistant this fall, forming a symbiotic relationship that has sparked a year to remember for both Brish and the Bulldogs. Meehan considers this team, ranked third in the state in the Division I coaches poll, among his best. The Bulldogs are aiming for their third state championship under Meehan Saturday at the Michigan High School Athletic Association Division I state finals at the Michigan In ternational Speedway in Brooklyn. “We have as good a chance as anybody,” Meehan said earlier this week after his Bulldogs won a regional championship Oct. 27. Brighton’s development started in August, with the girls trying to catch Brish on training runs. “At the beginning of the S E E BULLDOGS, C2 M H S A A c ro s s c o u n t ry s ta te f in a ls ■ What: Michigan High School Athletic Association cross country state finals. ■ When: Saturday. ■ Where: Michigan International Speedway, Brooklyn. ■ Teams qualifying: Division I boys: Pinckney (Brian Hankins, Matt Brunner, Mike Katsefaras, Jake Hohl, Matt Wines, Tanner Pesonen, Chris Lotz).

THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEVUS Senior class takes South Lyon to the top Girls swim team aims for 2nd KVC championship BY JASON DEEGAN T h e L i v i n g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s Four years ago, the South Lyon girls swim program was a bottom-feeder in the Kensington Valley Conference. But a rookie coach John Burch was determined to change that by demanding more than had ever been asked of the Lions. His large freshman class listened and learned. The effects were almost immediate that fall as the Lions swam to second place at the league meet and third overall. It was the first step to earning the credibility they have today. The Lions are now one of the state’s top programs. They’re ranked third in the Division I coaches association poll, with their only losses coming to Division I No. 1-ranked Ann Arbor Pioneer and Division 2 No. 1- ranked Farmington Hills Mercy. They’re aiming for a second straight KVC championship today and Saturday at Novi. “ It ’s been an amazing rise,” said Burch, standing poolside as his girls worked out last week. “ It ’s been a good experience for everyone.” Burch praised the perseverance of the senior class for building the program: 13 of the S E E SWIM,C2 C2 T H E L IV IN G S T O N C O M M U N IT Y N E W S FRIDAY, NOVEM B ER 2, 2007 PINCKNEY FROM Cl Eye on the Pirates: 'We are definitely ready/ says coach The Pinckney girls team, the Whitmore Lake boys team and 13 individuals will compete as well. Bu t all eyes will be on the Pirates: Can they match last year’s domination, when they scored a state-record 27 points? Two key Pirates, Hankins and junior Matt Wines, were hampered by colds at regionals Oct. 27. Pinckney coach Tom Carney said he’s not concerned about their health. “We’ve been pretty conservative all year,” he said. “We are to the point where we are definitely ready.” Carney said racing for the individual championship is “ a non-issue” for his pack, but Katsefaras has emerged as arguably the top contender in Division I. He won Kensington Valley Conference and regional championships last week. “ I feel like I ’m ready to do the best I can possibly do for this season, and run as fast as I possibly can without dying,” Katsefaras said. Hankins said his body is “ ready to go” after a workout last weekend. He sat out the regional race suffering from fatigue. “That workout showed me I can definitely run with the front guys. I was flying on my workout,” he said. “ I wanted to push my body to see if it was ready. I responded to it. I will be up there with Mike. We’ll be helping each other out. Hopefully, one of us wins.” Jason Deegan can be reached a t jdeegan@ livingstoncommunitynews.com or a t 810-844-2012. Pinckney's four seniors hope to become the first largeschool cross country team to three-peat as Michigan state champions in 50 years. From left, are Mike Katsefaras, Matt Brunner and Jake Hohl with Brian Hankins in the tire. JAMIE CHARBENEAU-PISELLA, THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS BULLDOGS FROM a Assistant coach is up for state-level running honors year, she could lead them and keep them going,” Meehan said. “Now my girls lead her and keep her going.” Meanwhile, Brish has run so well this year she’s on track to be honored as the Michigan female master’s (over- 40) runner of the year, based on points she’s accumulated in the Michigan Runner Race Series. Her marathon time - 3 hours, 15 minutes and 3 seconds - was good enough to finish third among female master’s runners, earning her $250. Brish, who has run nine marathons, said training with the girls has been a refreshing change from running by herself. “Out of all the years I ’ve been doing my marathons, they have totally distracted me. This has been my easiest (training),” Brish said. “ I really had no problem keeping my motivation up. I feel really lucky that this has all come about.” Brighton senior Nora Kiilunen, who was fifth at KVCs, said the team has enjoyed running with Brish. Meehan said Brish has been a great cheerleader. “ She is always saying positive, encouraging stuff,” said junior Amanda Halonen, who was fourth at the KVC meet. Brighton sophomore Sarah Kiilunen said attending the marathon was “ inspiring.” She was eighth at the KVC meet. “ It was cool to see so many runners who understand what we go through,” she said. Brish said her daughter, Samatha, has always been her running partner, even as a baby in a running stroller. Brish has “brainwashed” her daughter into loving the sport. Samantha, a sophomore who used to play basketball in the fall, is in her first season running cross country because of the federally mandated season’s switch. She has earned her varsity Jetter, ranking among Brighton’s top 12 runners in a program with 47 girls. “ She has the endurance. We are working on the speed,” Krys Brish said of her daughter. Brish never seems to slow down. She’s a specialist at the University of Michigan Medical Center who operates an extracorporeal membrane oxygenation machine. During E(3MO, given to a patient experiencing heart failure, the blood is oxygenated outside the body by an artificial lung and circulates with the help of an external pump, allowing the heart and lungs to rest. The family lives near the Island Lake State Recreation Area, so daily runs begin with a single step out the back door. “ I get my adrenaline rush at work or working out. I need energy because I ’m never off the clock,” she said. SWIM FROM Cl Lions boast quality depth in the pool girls have been on the team all four years. “You’ve got to give credit to the girls who do it year after year,” he said. “They are not state qualifiers, but they stick with it: With a grueling sport like swimming, IJiat’s key.” The Lions Sways have been able to produce state qualifiers, but the added depth has done wonders. Roughly 40 girls are on the roster tiiis fall, the school’s biggest team ever. A handful of senior standouts make the most waves. Senior Shannon Moceri was sixth in the 100-yard breaststroke at last y e a r’s state meet. Senior Olivia B rio la t was 19th in the 200- yard individual medley. Both seniors, along with classmate Chelsea Kemppainen, helped relay teams score points, .too. Senior co-captain Leslee Brandon said the 13 seniors all started out together in the Sea Lions youth program together. JAMIE CHARBENEAU-PISELLA,THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS Thirteen seniors have swam with South Lyon coach John Burch's girls program all four years, building the Lions from an also-ran in the conference to one of the top teams in the state. The Lions, ranked third in the Division I coaches poll, hope to win their second straight Kensington Valley Conference championship this weekend in Novi. “ It ’s really cool to see what hard work and dedication can do,” she said. Senior co-captain Samantha Szegedi said having a large group has made the long hours and early morning training easier. “The whole group has stuck together,” she said. “ Our coaches have a lot of dedication and (give us) motivation for the team to do well.” South Lyon diving coach Kevin Ferguson has built a quality program, too, since teaming with Burch four years ago. He’s succeeded despite having to train around swimmers until the team moved to the spacious new pool at South Lyon E a s t High School this fall. Seniors Courtney Smith, who placed 24th at the 2006 state meet; Kelly Babcock and Courtney Foley regularly dominate their opposition. “They’ve laid the foundation for us to develop into a top diving program in the state,” Burch said. “We get better every year.” RECREATION CALENDAR EVENTS ■ Kensington Valley Baseball Softball Association travel teams meeting - 7 p.m. Nov. 5, Scranton Middle School, 8415 Maltby Road.

Director Alice Andrews views the center as "a place that offers the opportunity to grow and stay healthy and happy." PHOTOS: JAMIE CHARBENEAU-PISELLA, THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS Healthy a n d h a p p y app roa ch Senior centers are no longer places to just play cards BY LISA CAROLIN T h e L i v i n g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s V isitors to the Hartland Senior Center are immediately drawn to Alice’s Restaurant. It ’s an outdoor-style cafe inside the center that resulted from the hard work by senior center members who did everything from supply the glass and counters to painting the mural on the wall that creates the colorful outdoor ambiance of the cafe. The idea came from Hartland Senior Center Director Alice Andrews, who lent her name to the popular gathering spot. “ I had always wanted to set up an inviting restaurant area in the senior center, and this is fabulous,” says Andrews. “ It ’s cozy and it looks nice, and everyone who worked on it is a member. We’re a growing, thriving, active program, and the restaurant adds to the feeling. We like to dispel the myth of a senior center as a place where people just sit and play cards. It ’s a place that offers the opportunity to grow and stay healthy and happy.” The Hartland Senior Center is located in the Hartland Educational Support Services Center, 9525 Highland Road, with its main room located in what used to be the old Hartland High School’s band and choir room. The former music practice rooms have become the Senior Center’s rooms for aerobics, yoga, and sit-and-fit activities. Painting, photography, writing, ballroom dancing, tap dancing, line dancing and square dancing also are among the activities along with basketball, pickleball, and a sizable weight room. The senior center also has a women’s chorus called Silve r Chords, a barbershop quartet, and a group called Sage Productions that puts on shows. “You can stay busy here from 8 in the morning until 4 in the afternoon,” says member Pa tti Duby of Hartland Township. “There are young seniors and older Alice's Restaurant is a popular spot at the Hartland Senior Center. At left, center member Ruth Acir helps herself to a cup of coffee. Toni Grimm enjoys the tap dancing class offered at the Hartland Senior Center, which offers many classes for active area ones, and there are activities for all the ages,” says Marion Struzelecki from Highland Township. Andrews says, “We get plenty of younger people, age 60-69. One quarter of those who use this senior center are in their 60s, half the members are in their 70s, and the rest are over 80.” Andrews says a member can be as young as 50, and that the oldest member was 103. Dave Skurski of Hartland Township plays pool at the Hartland Senior Center. His partner, not pictured, is Bernard duBetz of Howell. “Age is a relative term,” says Andrews. “ It ’s a state of mind and a state of body. People are living longer, and we have three generations of families here. It adds a whole other challenge of caregiving.” Andrews firmly supports the belief that staying socially and physically active improves peoples’ health. She says that as baby boomers start to retire, the cost in S EE SENIORS, A2 Center is lively place because of its director, seniors say Hartland Senior Center Director Alice Andrews, left, talks with staff member Flo Litogot about upcoming programs at the center. Alice Andrews wins praise for her energy and creative ideas BY U SA CAROLIN T h e L i v i n g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s The vitality of the Hartland Senior Center is a direct result of Director Alice Andrews. Ju st ask the members. “Alice has high energy and great ideas,” says Marion Struzelecki from Highland 'Township. “Alice let’s you go with ideas like the 1920s music the Senior Center performed in May, which raised $10,000,” says Patti Duby from Hartland Township. “ Everyboify who works here is friendly, and Alice brings it all together,” adds Struzelecld. Whether she’s directing a musical (like the senior center’s Christmas show that will be performed next month) or smoothing over a rift at a pool table, or leading one of the aerobics classes she teaches four days a week, Andrews is the spark tehind the S EE ANDREWS, A2 Election results Pinckney Community Public Library A $4.5 million bond issue to build a new library. Yes: 291 No: 563 incumbents w in in Howell, South Lyon, A 4 2 new m embers on Brighton City Council A 4 Full results at a glance, A 4 P i n c k n e y l i b r a r y p l a n i s d e f e a t e d $4.5 million bond issue loses by a 2-1 margin BY LAURIE HUMPHREY T h e L i v i n g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s Pinckney-area library supporters wiU have to shelve expansion plans, at least temporarily, following rejection of a plan for a new facility. Voters in Pinckney and Putnam Township rejected a $4.5 million ^ n d request by a 2-1 margin lliesday with 563 no votes compared to 291 supporting the plan. Eourteen percent of the electorate cast a ballot 'Riesday. Pinckney Community Public Library officials said there were too many negative economic factors working against the plan that would have cost the owner of a $200,000 home an additional $90 the first year, and about $72 annually for 21 years. “This was the only thing on the (local) ballot,” said Kate Pratt, a Putnam Township resident and library board member who spearheaded the campaign. “So, they came out on purpose to vote ‘No.’” Pratt said the group realized it was facing possible defeat given the weak economy and overall uneasy feeling of local residents, “but we couldn’t quit.” B y the time Pfizer Inc. announced in January that it would close its Ann Arbor facility, Pratt said the architect was hired and plans were moving forward. B y the time Michigan legislators announced an income tax increase last month, the ballot language was written and registered. “ If our crystal ball had not been broken, we would’ve skipped all of this,” she said, commenting on the factors working against the plan. “A lot of things have happened” since initial plans for the library began several years ago. 'The proposed 18,000-square-foot library would have been built on six acres in front of Phickney Community High School, replacing the 3,000- square-foot building built almost 14 years ago on Mower Road. Library director Hope Siasoco said it’s too soon to say what will happen next, though “any decision to try again would have to come from the board.” Voters could see another request as early as February, “but I can tell you right now that we’re not going to do that,” Pratt said. She said the library board would meet in the next couple of weeks to discuss options: scaling down the request, abandoning it aU together, searching for money donors or searching for other av^able buildfrgs to name a few. Pratt understands some voters believe “now is not the time,” but “ the libraiy is not going to get any bigger on its own. And by putting it off, it’s just going to cost more as building costs rise.” Still, she does not feel defeated by the proposal’s defeat. Comparing this bond request to ones similar for libraries throughout the county, she said “ they almost all fail the first time.” The library serves Picnkney’s village residents as well as residents in Putnam, Marion and Unadilla townships, but only Pinckney and Putnam residents, who would’ve ftmded the project, were able to vote. Siasoco thanked those involved in the campaign and community groups that listened to the proposal. “ I am thanMul for all the groups that allowed us on their agenda,” she said, “and for all the people who worked on the building committee and campaigned for this.” She remains confident their work will not be in vain.

IN BRIEF Howell chamber joins statewide coalition against service sales tax The Howell Area Chamber of Commerce board has voted to join the statewide Ax the 'Tax coalition to have the 6 percent sales tax on some services repealed. The co it io n has a two-pronged approach to repeal the tax: I^rsuade legislators to repeal the tax prior to its effective date of Dec. 1, or gather enough signatures to place frie repeal on the ballot. If the required signatures are gathered and certified, the Legislature will have 40 days either to accept the repeal or reject it so it can be placed on the November 2008baUot. “The Howell chamber has joined 50 other organizations in the state to kill this condfiising, restrictive and jobkilling tax and help keep jobs in L iv ingston County,” said Pat Convery, chamber president. The Howell Area Chamber of Commerce says the Legislature should immediately repeal the tax. Recent action by the state Senate approved a bill to delay the tax implementation until Dec. 20. “That’s a first step,” Convery said. “Ultimately it needs to be gone.” IN S ID E County spending plan Commissioners adopt a tight 2008 budget.

The layoffs were announced to members in an Oct. 31 email from President Kyle Sober, which said the board of directors had made the “heartfelt and painful decision” to lay off Diane Karona, executive officer, and Mary Jo Tagaki, director of communications. The e-mail said the H BALC would show a fourth year of declining revenue due to the economic climate and that the only reductions left were payroll in order to balance the budget. In addition, the H BALC needs to secure a new mortgage as of Dec. 1 on the building it owns at 132 E . Grand River Ave., just east of Main St. in downtown Brighton. That’s where Karona and Tagaki have been based and where the one remaining employee, Kelle Bennett, said that she will continue to work. Sober declined to comment beyond what was contained in the e-mail. But Kim Bowlin, legal counsel for the organization, said that the “Home Builders Association of Livingston County is not going out of business.” She said the association is “just trimming the organization and tightening purse strings like everyone else in the home-building industry. We’re confident that the organization will stand strong and grow, and that the layoffs are temporary.” Bowlin said one of the main reasons for the e-mail was to let members know that despite the decrease in membership, the H BA LC plans to maintain the service it has always offered. The membership is 351, down from 495 members. Builder Ju lie Fielek, the association’s incoming second vice president and a past president of the Michigan Association of Home Builders, has been in close contact with board members and members. “ It was a very painful decision the board had to make,” said Fielek. “ It was strictly a financial decision because the H BALC has been losing money the last four years due to the economy and declining membership. The only place for budget cuts was employees and benefits. The association could only afford to keep one staff person.” Fielek said the H BA LC still is a strong association that will be looldng at the possibility of consolidating and doing some joint administrative services with the Home Builders Association of Washtenaw County. Maureen Sloan, head of the Washtenaw builders’ group, says both associations are in the early stages of exploring some joint programs and possibly sharing resources. The H BA of Washtenaw County has seven employees, and close to 650 members, down | from 700 members a year ago.

Andrews says that there is a huge emphasis at the Hartland Senior Center placed on health and fitness. The Hartland Senior Center is sponsored by the school district along with Hartland, Deerfield and Tyrone townships, and the Livingston County United Way. “ Rmding is the most challenging part of the job,” says Andrews. “ People have a lot of pride in this senior center.” “ I moved out here three years ago, and there’s a lways something to do,” says member Ju n e DeClercq of Hartland Township. “ I ’m in a w riter’s group here, and I ’m writing my life story.” “ Some of us didn’t even know we had talent, and found it here,” says member Ruth Acir of Brighton Township. “ I found out that I can dance and play pickle ball and I ’m doing weights. I had six yards of mulch delivered to my house in the summer and did the whole thing in a day myself, and the next day I felt really good.” Acir says it ’s thanks to the Hartland Senior Center that she had the fitness, stamina and confidence to do so. Livingston County also is home to five additional senior centers serving members in all part of the county. Here is a update on each: ■ Brighton Senior Center: Director Nancy Hall has stepped down and a search is on for a new director, according to Anne Rennie, director of Brighton Community Education, which runs the Brighton Senior Center. “With the changeover of LETTER Write us Send correspondence to: Letters, The Livingston Community News, 420 W.

Nancy leaving, we are making quite a few changes, some as soon as Jan . 1,” says Rennie. “We are changing our whole structure to be more supportive to the working senior as well as the nonworking senior in preparation for baby boomers joining the senior center. We’re going to change our hours and expand our services and programming and offer more trips. We plan to have more off-site partnerships and links with local resources.” ■ Fowlerville and Howell senior centers: The two senior centers are combining for a fundraiser Wednesday, Nov. 14, running 5-7 p.m. at The Opera House in Howell.

IN BRIEF Brighton Teacher won't face charges A Brighton substitute teacher will not be charged with assaulting a Maltby Middle School special education student because “ there was no criminal intent to assault,” Livingston County Prosecutor David F. Morse said Wednesday. Morse said the 12-year-old male student kicked a ball that hit the substitute teacher in the head, then fell to the floor into a fetal position Oct. 31. He said the teacher tried to haul the student up by the arm but, when that failed, grabbed the student’s shirt to make him stand so he could be taken to the principal’s office. “Whether it was appropriate or inappropriate, that matter is for the school,” Morse said.

Howell Prosecutor declines teacher charges No criminal charges will be filed against a Howell High School teacher who was accused last month of poking a student in the head with a pointer. “We didn’t think we could establish criminal assaultive intent,” Chief Assistant Prosecutor Dan Garber said earlier this week. The parents of a 15-yearold girl called police after the girl told them she was poked in the back of her head. She said she had her head on her desk during class. The girl did not report injuries, but told police she got a headache. She told police she told the teacher not to hit her, but he “blew her off,” according to Livingston Undersheriff Michael Murphy.

Livingston County Sheriffs deputies get 3-year pact Livingston County Sheriff’s Department deputies, detectives and corrections officers are now working under a new, three-year contract. The County Board of Commissioners approved the contract at its meeting Nov. 5. The 100 unionized sheriff’s employees, members of the Police Officers of Michigan, ratified the pact by an overwhelming margin last month. The contract gives a 2.5- percent wage increase this year, retroactive to Jan . 1; 2.75 percent for 2008 and 2.25 percent for 2009. The employees get a $1,000 signing bonus and an extra vacation day. The county is getting some relief in the skyrocketing cost of health insurance since the employees will be required to contribute more out of their paychecks in order to get the same coverage.

That is no less true in L iv ingston County, where the P Board of Commissioners this week adopted a lean, 2008 general fund spending plan of $46.1 million. That is about $750,000 less than it was two years ago and represents a projected 5 percent reduction from 2007 spending. “ It ’s a very conservative budget, there are no frills,” said County Financial Officer Belinda Peters. The figure does not include special revenue and enterprise funds (self-supporting) such as County EM S , which is supported by a county-wide millage. In the coming year, the county may have to revisit I the budget early in 2008 due ^ to possible declines in the taxable value of property. A picture of what could happen in Livingston County, albeit on a much larger scale, is emerging In nearby Oakland County, where the taxable value of all property will drop by about 0.5 percent next year. That’s according to county projections, and is based largely on a 5 percent drop in the taxable values of residential property. It would be the first reduction in taxable values in the populous and wealthy county in at least 40 years, and as a result Oakland County will likely be forced to trim about $6 million from its $428 million general fund budget. Peters said the county will know more “ in a month or so” about what Livingston County’s figure will be. But if the county’s taxable value drops, budget adjustments will be made. “We used a 2.6 increase in taxable value, a projection we made in April,” Peters said, in preparing the 2008 budget, warning that may have to be revised downward. The budget resolution contains provision for imposing a hiring fi'eeze, or further layoffs, if necessary. The county depends heavily on residential property assessments for the bulk of revenues contained in the general fund budget (72 percent, or $30.9 million, comes fi’om property taxes and about 90 percent of that is residential). The remainder comes from state and federal grants, charges for services, fines and forfeitures and investment income, Peters said. The approved spending plan also includes a 2.5 percent across-the-board salary increase in 2008 for nonunion county employees - including elected officials - with the exception of county judges (whose salaries are established by law) and the Board of Commissioners. Among officials, County Administrator Bob Block will earn $149,245; Prosecutor David Morse, $128,581; Sheriff Bob Bezotte, $109,064; Clerk Margaret Dunleavy, $89,547; Register of Deeds Sally Reynolds, $83,807; Drain Commissioner Brian Jonckheere, $83,450 and Treasurer Dianne Hardy, $83,053. The county will levy 3.38 mills in 2008, the same as this year, with no Headlee rollback. The Headlee Amendment requires that millage increases in Michigan be the lesser of 5 percent and the inflation rate. The 2008 county budget only calls for four layoffs, two in the health department and two in the prosecutor’s office. Reductions in the building department work force due to the slowdown in housing growth took place previously and no more layoffs are anticipated at this time, Peters said. The prosecutor’s office will be reduced by two clerical people due to technology upgrades. Tom Tolen can be reached a t ttolen@ livingstoncommunitynews.com or a t 8)0-84 4-2 009 . Ex-credit union manager jailed Dodge pleads no contest to ID thefts, embezzlement BY TOM TOLEN T h e L i v i n g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s The former manager of the Brighton branch of the Huron River Area Credit Union was sentenced Nov. 1 to 240 days in jail and ordered to pay $204,945 in restitution, after pleading no ^ contest to embezzlement and ^ identity theft. Ja so n Stewart Dodge, 31, was sentenced in Livin g ston County C ircu it Court by Jud ge Stanley L a tre ille Jason Dodge, sentenced to 240 days in jail and ordered to make restitution. after pleading no contest in Ju ly to one count of embezzlement and two counts of identity theft. He also was ordered to pay $1,800 in court costs and given credit for two days served in jail. A no-contest plea is not an admission of guilt, but is treated as such for sentencing. Brighton Police said Dodge embezzled more than $100,000 and tried to cover the losses with false loans taken out in the names of credit union members. Auditors discovered irregularities at the same time that members began seeing inappropriate activity in their accounts, according to police. In February, federal regulators took over operation of the credit union and placed it into conservatorship after the state deemed it in danger of insolvency. Its board of directors and chief executive were dismissed.

Grand River (517) 548-7070 Livingston County Prosecutor David Morse announces he will charge Iosco Township resident Diane Cockrell in the dog mauling deaths of two people. Michigan State Troopers, from left, Craig Felix and Michael Sure attended last week's press conference at the Livingston County Law Center in Howell. ROBERT CHASE. THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS » Mauling case moves forward in court Dogs' owner is chargecd last w eek in September Iosco Twp. deaths BY SUSAN L. OPPAT T h e L i v i n g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s Diane Cockrell kept her dogs in a building on her Iosco Township property, but they were able to dig their way out and escape through a small fence - apparently on several occasions, the Livingston County prosecutor said. The escape of at least four of the dogs Sept. 13 had deadly results, when the American bulldogs mauled two local residents to death 150 feet apart from each other. Cockrell, who was not home at the time, now faces felony charges in the deaths of Cheryl Harper, 56, and Edward Gierlach, 91. Livingston County P ro s ecutor David F. Morse announced the charges during a Nov. 1 press conference. She w ill soon be arraigned on two felony counts of possessing a dangerous animal causing death, punishable by up to 15 years in prison, and a misdemeanor of a llowing dogs to stray. Morse said those are the most serious charges that could be filed in the case against Cockrell, who owned 10 American bulldogs and bulldog mixes. Authorities said at least four of dogs, both males and females, escaped Sept. 13. Cockrell was out of town at the time, and the dogs were being cared for by a teenage neighbor whom authorities have not named. Morse said the teen will not face any charges because there’s no evidence she was culpable in the deaths. He said there was evidence the dogs dug out of a building with no windows and dirt floors, on a number of occasions. The felony charges re quire prosecutors to prove “ gross negligence,” but Morse declined to discuss what evidence they wilt present to prove that assertion. ■ “We have to prove that she knew the dogs’ propensity for being dangerous,” Morse said. “We also have to prove she was grossly negligent in taking action to prevent harm to others.” Morse said prosecutors met with the families of both victims before the press conference, and they were glad to hear charges were being brought. Neither family could be reached for comment. Gierlach’s body was found by his son in his driveway on Crofoot Road. Police who responded to that call found H arper about 150 feet away on tjbe ru ral road, where she often walked for exercise. Morse said police aren’t sure of the exact time of the attacks, but said H a rp e r’s husband last heard from her about an hour before G ierlach’s son called for help. Harper told her husband she was on her way out for her daily walk. A ll 10 of the dogs were euthanized Sept. 18 with Cockre ll’s permission. Michigan State Police said Cockrell’s neighbors called after the deaths to report that the dogs had gotten out of their kennel a number of times. Morse said that neighbors complained about Cockrell’s horses getting off her land, but had not filed any complaints about the dogs.

The four were the only names on this year's ballot; write-in candidate Susan Walters-Steinacker was unsuccessful in her bid. 4 l i s t e d o n b a l l o t e a r n s e a t s o n B r i g h t o n C i t y C o u n c i l Newcomers Bohn and Cooper earn most votes in off-year election BY TOM TOLEN T h e L i v i n g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s The four ballot candidates easily won election Tuesday to the Brighton City Council over a write-in candidate. Voter turnout at the polls was light, with about 14 percent of the city’s 5,427 registered voters casting ballots in the off-year election. Incumbents Claudia Roblee and John Tunis, and political newcomers Jim Bohn and Chad Cooper were victorious, while write-in candidate Susan Walters-Steinacker did not win a seat with just 89 votes. The newcomers, however, did better at the polls than the incumbents. Of the two new faces, Bohn tallied the Trustees win in S. Lyon school race Challenger Frank Domanico defeated F r o m N e w s s t a f f r e p o r t s Three incumbents easily won re-election to the South Lyon school board Tuesday, leaving only challenger Fraidc Domanico without a seat on the board. Douglas Curry, Ann Knauer- Bizer and David Taulbee won six-year terms on the board while Donald E . Beagle was elected to fill out a term through 2011. Beagle was the top votergetter with 2,273 votes. He was appointed to fill a vacancy on the board. Taulbee got 1,915 votes and Curry and Knauer-Bizer had almost identical vote totals with 1,877 and 1,876 votes respectively. On the current school board, Taulbee is president, Curry is treasurer, and Knauer-Bizer is a trustee. During the campaign, all candidates said working with the state’s troubled economy was a major concern, and other issues included meeting new academic requirements while maintaining the district’s educational standards. most votes with 597, followed by Cooper with 568. Roblee placed third, with 530 votes, to get the final fouryear term and Tunis finished fourth, with 509, to gamer the two-year term. According to the Brighton city charter, the three who receive the most votes get four-year seats and the fourth-highest a two-year seat. Bohn credited extensive door-to-door campaigning for his first-place finish among the five candidates. “ I didn’t take anything for granted; we hit about every home in the city,” he said Tuesday night. Bohn, 53, said he is “ looking forward” to the four-year commitment. “ I ’m not afraid of hard work,” he said. Cooper, the second-highest vote-getter, said he was “quite excited” about being elected after doing “ extensive campaigning.” “ I will continue to be an open ear to the community and meet the needs of the residents,” Cooper said Tuesday night. Cooper, 34, is a sales representative for Microsoft Corp. Also elected to a four-year term was Claudia Roblee, who had been appointed earlier in the year to fill a vacancy, with 530 votes. Roblee, 52, campaigned on the issues of a healthy downtown, maintaining a good infi-astructure and fostering growth in home ownership to reduce the high percentage of rental housing units in the city. Roblee could not be reached for comment. Tunis, with 509 votes, got the two-year term, as he did in 2005. “ I ’m happy to be part of a great team,” he said. “We still have things that need to be fixed,” said Tunis, who is 55. Walters-Steinacker said she realized it was an “uphill battle.” Despite the setback, she promised to continue the watchdog role she has adopted to monitor city government. “ It ’s not going to stop me from participating, and in two years I ’m going to run again,” she added.

Moen defeated challenger Jim Smullen for another twoyear term as mayor, with 517 votes to SmuUen’s 237. Incumbent city council candidates won the three four-year seats capturing about 75 percent of the total vote, beating challengers Victoria H e rtrich and Matt Wilson. Tom Malloy was the at the top with 552 votes, followed by Steve Manor with 519 votes, and Scott Patton with 433 votes. H ertrich took 276 votes while Wilson had 260. Finance was a big issue for candidates going into the election. With a decrease of state revenue sharing funds. city leaders have to be more fiscally responsible than ever with the money given to them, according to M alloy. As a result, city leaders must find new ways to generate money and focus on cost-cutting. “We do this by looking at the budget and trimming as much fat as we can, and we have. When we’re bidding out jobs, we also have to be competitive looking for the deal, not just go with someone we’ve used in the past or someone we know,” he said. Each of those elected said they believe voters approve overall of how the city is moving forward with road improvements, including the rebuilding of D-19 and the Loop Road, which would detour northbound traffic from 1-96 off Michigan Avenue along Lucy Road. At the same time, city officials each recognized the need for ongoing efforts to revitalize downtown business and improved community outreach. “ I would like to have more neighborhood conversations and town hall get-togethers,” said Moen, who fielded concerns about communications from voters while campaigning. “When we’re doing road improvements, we talk to the people who will be directly affected, but not necessarily the others in the neighborhood.” She would like to see everyone included in discussions. Patton would like to focus on the downtown. “ The other (unsuccessful) candidates did identify a couple of issues that we need to address, like downtown retention. As a council, we cannot be satisfied with anything less than perfect.” Manor shares Patton’s vision for v ita l downtown, but would like to extend the council’s attention into the neighborhoods with preservation and enhancement efforts. “We need to move the city forward as best as we can,” he said. Robert Wines, who ran without opposition for the c ity ’s Board of Review, was re-elected win 619 votes.

Grand River Ave., Genoa Township (between Brighton and Howell near Lake Chemung). ■ Details: 517-545-1000 or www.crystalgardenslivingston. com. T im e l i n e : ■ The Thomas family started a catering business in 1959 in what is now the city of Eastpointe, eventually branching to full-service Crystal Gardens banquet facilities. Today, the company has six facilities including the one in Livingston County. ■ In November 2003, the Thomas family began operating the 35,000-square-foot banquet facility on the site o f the former Lake Pointe Manor in Genoa Township. ■ On May 11,2004, they purchased and proposed major renovation to the facility, which formerly held a banquet center, sports bar and nightclub. A large wraparound lobby and circular staircase were added and the facade was redone. ■ Today, the center offers an upscale martini and hors d'oeuvres bar, a celebrity showroom and facilities for groups o f up to 1,200. The staff handles weddings, business and family functions and brings in both local and regional entertainers. CEO Joe Thomas said all food is prepared from scratch. Other locations are in Taylor, Southgate, Trenton and Wyandotte.

FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 16, 2007 w w w .m l iv e . c o m / liv in g s t o n c o m m u n i t y n e w s D e e r h u n tin g h o ld in g s te a d y DNR lowered hunting age last year to 12 BY LINDA THEIL N e w s S p e c i a l W r i t e r Sportsman Frank H ill sees no evidence of a decrease in Livingston County deer hunters despite state game officials forecasting a 17 percent decline in Michigan deer hunters from 2004 to 2030. The owner of Hills Sporting Goods in Fowlerville says business has been steady, despite Michigan’s sagging economy. • “ I don’t see any decline at all,” H ill said. “There are a lot of young kids coming in now who are getting into hunting.” Michigan’s popular firearm deer hunting seasons runs Nov. 15-30. In an effort to promote mentoring of new hunters, last year the DNR lowered the hunting age to 12 for hunting deer and 10 fo r small game. Youthful hunters must be supervised by a licensed adult hunter. The DNR also inaugurated a new apprentice hunter program that allows individuals to hunt without the required hunter education course i f they are accompanied and monitored by a licensed adult hunter. They also instituted a special hunting season. “ They had a youth season in the last weekend in September - a three-day youth hunt,” H ill said. “ That seems to go p re tty good. I t ’s a beneficial thing. I t gets kids interested. There’s no competition out there from adults. I t ’s a chance to get out there themselves and experience it with th e ir parent.” DNR W ildlife Biologist B rian Frawley said the state sold more licenses to youth last year, but it is hard to determine the long-term effect of the mentoring programs. “Hunting and rec ruitment of hunting depends on the family network,” Frawley said. “Research has shown that if you haven’t been in tro duced to hunting by age 20, you won’t be introduced to it.

Allen is one of a couple dozen members of the Livingston County chapter. Camp No. 120, of the Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War. He and fellow chapter members have spent years researching and locating unmarked graves of area men who fought in the Civil War. They then install headstones to mark the burial sites. I t ’s all part of the National Graves Registration Project, established in 1996 by the national Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War. On this day, granite headstones were installed at the grave sites of Pvt. Riley E. VanZile and his brother, Pvt. Wells VanZile, both of the 4th Michigan Infantry, as well as Pvt. Charles P Lockwood, of the 26th Michigan In fa n try and Cpl. Austin F. Smith, also of the 4th Michigan Infantry. The marker for Riley VanZile is actually a “ memoria l marker,” because the soldier was presumed missing in action and no body was ever recovered, said D ic k Hutchins, the chapter’s Graves Registration chairman. VanZile was last heard from two days before the Battle of Gettysburg. Each newly marked grave also got a Grand A rmy of the Republic medallion w ith a small flag holder, mounted on a metal rod and embedded in the concrete securing the headstone. The 230-pound headstones are provided free by the Veterans Administration. “We check cemetery records and walk the cemeteries looking for headstones,” Hutchins said. “ I f we don’t find one where there should be one, we search the records, lo cal and state, and send a request to the VA. I t takes us about three months to get a granite or marble stone from the VA. The medallions cost us about $22 apiece.” The group holds no fundraisers, so members generally assume the costs of the medallions. There are upward of 50 cemeteries in Livingston County, and the group has so fa r installed or replaced 22 headstones in four of them. Work w ill continue for years, Allen said. Some 3,000 Civil War soldiers are believed to have come from the county, but not all are buried here, he said.

Parents warned about how to protect children while on Internet Law enforcement officers say they must become educated BY LEANNE SMITH T h e L i v m g s t o r ) C o m m u n i t y N e w s Even in Livingston County, kids are one computer mouse c lic k from predators seeking them out on the Internet, but local and national experts on crimes against children say parents should not live in fear. The best way to protect kids is to become as educated on the computer and Internet as they are, members of the Livingston County Sheriff’s Department, Hamburg Police Department, FBI and National Center for Missing and Exploited Children said during a workshop hosted Monday by U.S. Rep. Mike Rogers, R-Brighton, in Pinckney Community Schools’ Jane 'Tasch Theatre. “ I t used to be th a t predators had to find a way to be around children where they could have a physical conversation w ith them,” he said. “ Now, they can ta lk to children in the comfort of our homes while in the comfort of th e ir homes.” This anonymity, combined w ith kids’ innocence and bette r knowledge than th e ir parents of computers, creates a danger parents m ust respect, Rogers said. “ Do what only a parent can do best, and th a t’s be a detective at home to protect your children,” said Hamburg Police Chief Steve Luciano. “And make sure you contact law enforcement if you’re concerned about something you find.” One in five children w ill be solicited on the Internet, b u t many of these crimes go unreported because parents don’t know they’re happening, said Ed Moore, a re tire d s h e riff’s deputy who s till works w ith the department’s Cyber crime unit. Communication on this topic is vital, he said. “ Build tru s t,” Moore said. “ Be open and honest w ith your Idds, and ask them to do the same w ith you.

Inside i I A2 THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 16, 2007 Northwest Howell Twp. could see more houses Trustees OK rezoning request Monday BY LAURIE HUMPHREY T h e L i v i n g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s Howell Township trustees Monday n a rrow ly approved a rezoning request of more than 700 acres o f residentia l land in the com m unity ’s northwest side, also known as Sewer and Water D is tric t 11, which would allow smalle r lo t sizes in subdivisions. As a result, residential parcels surrounding the Livingston County Spencer J. Hardy A irp o rt could see more houses i f developers choose to follow the minimum development standards. Howell Township Clerk Carolyn Eaton, one of four board members to approve the rezoning request, said th a t was an unintended consequence of a “ township plan to re d is tr ic t all re s id e n tia l” parcels affected by the in stallation of new w ater and sewer lines. Approval of the request w ill decrease the minimum lo t size fo r about 100 parcels from two acres to 12,000- square-feet per acre, making way fo r 2,500 homes instead of 350. Trustees Mike Coddington and Todd Thomas voted against the proposal, along w ith Treasurer L a r ry Hammond. “ The whole district is being rezoned, with the exception of 13 parcels whose owners opted out,” Eaton said. “ (Residential parcels in) District 12 and the extensions will also be rezoned” as their water and sewer improvements near completion. Requests to rezone the land were made by property owners trying to determine how many water and sewer hookups they need to make their land marketable for possible future residential development. Hookups, or residential equivalent units, are given on a first-come, firstserved basis and can be purchased cheaper once the sewer and water district has been just completed, rather than trjdng to purchase hook-ups at a later time. P ro p e rty owners who w ait also ris k not having REUs available. The approved residential land rezoning request concurs w ith the township’s fiveyear master plan, as well as Livingston County’s master plan. However, the Livingston County Board of Commissioners recommended denial of the request based on tex t in the five-year Livingston County Comprehensive Plan Summary. Revised in 2006, following the expansion of the airport. Tm not opposed to the rezoning. I would like to look at some alternate uses, where we're not harming anybody.' County airport might grow once more Larry Hammond, Howell Township treasurer te x t was inserted to address “ fu tu re land use classifications,” according to Rob Stanford, Liv ings ton County princ ipal planner. “A plan adopted by the county, recommended th a t land uses in the designated a irp o rt area (one-half mile from the center of the a irport) should be lim ite d ,” Stanford said. “ B u t we don’t have zoning authority. We are an advisory body.” Howell Township trustees considered the recommendation o f the county board, as well as the recommendation fo r approval by county staff, before voting Nov. 12. Calls to Scott Barb, the county planner recommending approval of the proposal were not re tu rn e d by press time. “ I ’m not opposed to the (D is tric t 11) rezoning,” said Hammond, focusing his concerns on the land adjacent to the airport. “ I would like to look at some alternate uses, where we’re not harming anybody (developers who would have to a lte r th e ir plans already in progress.)” Eaton agreed. “And we took care o f th a t w ith the second motion” to in s tru c t the township planning commission to consider county hazard m itig a tio n ideas as they p ut finishing touches on a new five-year township Master Plan. That document, which w ill define which type o f development which should occur section-by-section of the community, is expected w ith in fo u r months. She noted however that even if land master planned for residential is changed to commercial or industrial in the new master plan, township trustees can rezone the land only if the property’s owner requests it. “Obviously, our object would be to have the least amount of people around the airport as possible,” she said.

The Spencer J. H a i% Airport has undergone three waves of improvement since the mid- 1950s, and all indicators point to futime improvements as the county continues to grow. “They do have room to expand, and I think they will expand,” said Rob Stmiford, Livingston County principal planner. What started as a recreational airport with a d irt runway, has grown to a 450-acre, 24-hour a day, seven days a week operation with 150 hangers, a 5,000-foot runway, and precision Instrument Landing System. “We’ve done the bulk of the work over the last 36 months,” said airport manager Mark Johnson, who will mark 17 years on the job in January. “ I t was a $33 million improvement.” As the county grows, business at the airport increases and neighborhoods move closer. “We try to be good neighbors, but there is going to be noise,” he said, “ and people are going to complain.” He added that while “ it is not atypical” to have neighborhoods abutting airport land, “ the ideal thing around airports is commercial and industrial development.” He estimates that the closest house sits about 600 feet north of the airport runway toward Bowen Road. Following recent approval of a request to increase residential density on land in the northwest sector of Howell 'Township, he fears that more homes will close in on the airport, and create a bigger problem for township ofiicials and himself. “People are going to move in, and they are going to complain,” he said. He said he also worries about safety issues. Aircraft making their approach already fly over the few houses “ in the fly pattern.” Black Friday: M o s t Tanger stores to open a t m id n igh t RETAIL REPORT Ho\A/ell-area center aims for shoppers on on e o f busiest days o f the season BY STEPHENIE KOEHN N e w s s p e c i a l W r i t e r As the ceremonial kickoff to the holiday season, the day a fte r Thanksgiving has long been one of the busiest shopping days of the year. Retailers vie with each other to see who can open earliest that day to a ttra c t the most customers. This year, it looks like the early honors w ill go to the stores at the Tanger Outlet Center near Howell, many of which plan to open at midnight Thanksgiving night (well, Friday morning, actually). The Midnight Madness savings begin when the clock strikes twelve - when the turkey and pumpkin pie are barely settled - and continue all weekend, said the m a ll’s general manager, Kim Dane. “ This is the second year we’ve done this and it really gives us a boost,” she said. “ We opened last year with 30 stores and had thousands of people come. So fa r this year, 65 (of the m a ll’s 80-plus) stores are on board. For some of the stores, you’ll have to get in line to get in.” The m id n ig h t opening has been ve ry successful where i t was fir s t trie d , at the Tanger Outlet Center in San Marcos, Texas. L a s t year, the Howell Township m a ll was one of 10 ta rg e te d fo r the early, e a rly opening by the Greensboro, N.C.-based Tanger Fac tory O u tle t Centers Inc., which owns o r manages 33 shopping centers in 23 states. ^Among the many who heeded the siren call of m id n ig h t shopping were some from as fa r away as Grand Rapids, Kalamazoo, Lansing and Ann Arbor, Dane said.

A Wheel of Fortune, in the Food Court from 1-3 a.m., w ill give shoppers who didn’t get one of the 300 free prizes a chance to win other prizes. From Adidas to Old Navy to Zales, stores w ill offer discounts of as much as 80 percent in one case, free merchandise with and w ithout purchase and other special incentives. The center, ju s t off of 1-96 at B u rkh a rt Road, w ill be open w ith after-Thanksgiving savings from midnight Friday, Nov. 23 continuously u n til 9 p.m., then 8 a.m.-9 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 24 and 9 a.m.-6 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 25. “Wear comfortable shoes, download the special coupons and pre-plan where you want to go,” Dane said. “ Plan to save some money and have some fun - and that’s what we need rig h t now.” The Web site, at www. tangeroutlet.com, has store coupons to use during the Midnight Madness sale and throughout the weekend.

The property’s owners, including principal owner Simone Mauro, had hoped to build 286 single-family homes on the Chemung Hills Golf Course site, but needs to have the land rezoned first. The request had already been turned down by the township’s planning commission, the Livingston County Planning Commission, and the township’s board of trustees. Citing revisions to the 2006 Michigan Zoning Act which indicate that issues of rezoning can only be acted upon by a municipality’s Board o f'Ih is tees or Planning Commission, ZBA chairman Richard Beal said “ I tru ly do not see where the board has any jurisdiction or authority to act on this.” Neither Mauro, nor his attorney 'Tom Kalas, attended the meeting. The next step according to 'Township Supervisor Bill Bamber is Circuit Court, if the land owner decides to pursue the request for rezoning.

Also in Brighton Monday, Ricci Bandkau was unanimously re-elected as mayor pro tern, and w ill preside over meetings when Lawrence is absent. Two new council members - Chad Cooper and J im Bohn - were sworn in, as were Claudia Roblee and John 'Tunis, who were re-elected in last week’s city election. Cooper, Bohn and Roblee w ill serve four-year terms and H inis, two years. Lawrence says she was convinced to serve as mayor by others. “ Some of my peers asked me if I was interested, I thought about it and the commitment it would take, and let them know that if nominated, I would accept,” she said. Lawrence’s was the only name placed in nomination. She replaces Steve Monet, who did not ru n fo r another term on City Council. Lawrence said she w ill continue the legacy left by Monet in reaching out to nearby communities and building bridges of cooperation. “Great strides have been made, and the city w ill remain an active member of the regional cooperation group,” she said. Monet had kind words fo r Lawrence as both his predecessor and his successor. “With her skills, she’s going to provide a lo t of confidence to (the newer) council members,” he said. “ She’s been invaluable on the board to continue to build consensus and gitiije. fplks ,in the rig h t direction.” In his state-of-the-city address, the outgoing mayor said the coimcil could not rest on its laurels. “ Our memories should inspire us to build upon our accomplishments,” he said. On City Council since 1993, Lawrence has been active for many years in the Michigan Municipal League. She is a fo rm e r state president of the MML, is past chairwoman of the league’s Region I, curre n tly chairs its lia b ility and property pool and is treasurer of the Michigan Municipal League Foundation. Lawrence, 49, says she w ill remain active in the league, which represents the in te rests of municipalities at the state level. Kate Lawrence was selected Monday as the mayor of Brighton. One of Lawrence’s main goals w ill be to establish neighborhood redevelopment districts, which functions s im ila rly to a Downtown Development Authority. “ I t ’s fo r using financing to focus on specific areas as financial tools for in fra s truc ture improvements and ‘sense of place’ enhancements,” she said. “You want to create an atmosphere that makes people want to live in a community.” Lawrence cited replacing overhead street lights w ith period streetlights in an histo ric neighborhood as one example of a neighborhood redevelopment project that might b.e undertaken. She acknowledged that difficulties lie ahead in Michigan communities, saying she will focus on “ getting through these economic times and remaining progressive and positive” during the next two years.

'Tree removal is to be completed by mid-December, and telephone line relocation, to start next month, is scheduled to be completed by mid-February. E ast Grand River Avenue w ill be resurfaced from the Brighton city lim its to the northbound US-23 bridge - and reconstructed and widened from the bridge to Pleasant Valley Road - in the $8.1 million project. H o w e l l O f f i c i a l u p d a t e s b o a r d o n b u s in g A t Monday’s Howell Board of Education meeting. D ire c to r of Operations Mike Peterson updated the board on transportation concerns raised recently. Peterson said the d is tric t has fa r fewer than the 80 buses and drivers it would need to bring long ride times down to 45 minutes or less. Peterson said 87.5 percent of students riding buses have a ride of an hour or less, w ith the maximum time one hour, 37 minutes. Among options presented were buying 10 used buses and hiring 10 more drivers for about $170,000, procuring eight more buses and drivers at a cost of $133,000 or contracting w ith Livingston Essential Transportation Service to transport 54 students fo r $28,000. But Peterson said contracting w ith LETS would result in “ negligible improvement” because of the small number of students. Other options include privatizing field trips, bus shuttles, camp trips, band and choir trip s and athletic competitions. Peterson also presented various potential scenarios affecting ride times fo r reopening Howell High School fo r grades 9-10 or 9- 12. The transportation committee, which w ill continue to meet, did not recommend a p a rticu la r option and the board took no action.

Township trustees recently approved funds to fix the siren following more than 15 years of inactivity. I f the siren is deemed beyond repair, the township w ill have paid fo r a $150 service call.

Talk to technology experts at school, church or work on what to do and how to look at what sites children are visiting, they said, adding that further information on blocking, filtering and Internet usage is available on the center’s Web site, www.missingkids.com. Hamburg Township’s Iris Albrecht brought her husband and th e ir middle school-aged son and 6-year-old daughter to the workshop to learn. “You know Internet safety is out there, but you never think it’s relevant to your life until the seriousness of it is really explained to you,’’ she said. Besides predators, parents should also look fo r signs of “ cyber bullying’’ in children’s e-mail or personal Web pages, Moore said. Monitoring for sites on hate crimes, Internet gambling and instruc tion on how to build bombs o r obtain drugs, alcohol or tobacco also is important, he said. “This workshop is like preventative medicine,” said Pinckney Community Schools Superintendent Dan Danosl^f. “We hope our parents never have to experience this, but we know it ’s a possibility, and it ’s important to have programs like this.” Leanne Smith can be reached at !smith@ livingstoncommunitynews.com or at 810-844-2011. D E E R FROM A1 Economy influences num ber o f hunters the 2003-2005 seasons, Frawley said it is impossible to predict the future. While deer hunting is declining, bear and turkey hunting is at a peak of popularity. “We ran the numbers using the projected demogra p h ic s ,” F raw le y said. “Any numbers we give are only as good as the assumptions we use; I guarantee assumptions w ill not occur as we p re d ic t.” Frawley said in the DNR’s 2006 report on “ Demographics, Recruitment and Retention o f Michigan Hunters” : “A lthough trends from national surveys indicate that hunting participation may have declined, it was unknown whether similar trends could be documented using independent data collected by the Michigan Department of Natural Resources.” W ild life management is influenced by m y ria d factors in c lu d in g the economy: The cost o f fire a rm s and amm unition is up. The state budget antic ipates an u n dete rm in ed increase in the cost of h u n tin g licenses to be determined by Jan. 15. Increased joblessness encourages subsistence h u n ting. “A lot of guys now are hunting and using the meat rather buying beef,” Frank H ill said. “ That type of hunter is up a little bit; but I get a lot more people now talking about hunting for the meat.” H ill also says that bow hunting is less expensive that fire arm hunting, and has other advantages. “ I see an increase in bow hunting,” H ill said. The bow hunting season’s longer, the weather’s better ... you can see more deer in th e ir natural habitat - bow hunting is so much more peaceful and quiet.” Although the DNR doesn’t break down statistics by county, they anticipate the statewide deer harvest w ill be 450,000 deer going to 735,000 hunters who purchased at least one deer license in 2007. For the last two years, 60 percent of the hunt was taken in southern Michigan and is expected to follow that trend again this year. H ill said customer feedback suggests this w ill be a relatively good year because of all the deer hunters are seeing. “ There are a lot of hunters in Livingston County. There are a lot of deer in Livingston County. I t ’s a big county for hunting.” H ill said. Will he be in the woods? “Oh, yes; I ’ll be out there.” H E A D S T O N E S FROM A1 M em bers have links to Civil W a r vets sor to the Grand A rmy of the Republic, a fraternal organization founded in 1866 and composed of veterans of the Union Army, said Hutchins, who has w ritte n two books about Livingston County communities during the Civil War. Fhll membership in the SUVCW is open to males who are descended fi’om a Union veteran of the Civil War. Males without the ancestral connection but with a “ genuine interest” in the Civil War may be considered for associate membership. The Livingston County camp includes members like Daniel Eldridge, who said his greatgrandfather, Edgar Lincoln, fought in the Civil War and was a fourth cousin of Abraham Lincoln. Marion Township native Paul Scheidler’s great-greatgrandfather served as a Union soldier in a Branch County unit during the Civil War. “He served w ith a lot of Livingston County boys,” said Scheidler, an Army National Guard officer who is also a Civil War re-enactor. Allen’s great-grandfather and two great uncles served A b o u t t h e G r a n d A r m y o f t h e R e p u b l i c A fraternal organization composed of Union veterans of the Civil War, established in 1866 in Decatur, III. GAR was one of the first organized interest groups in American politics. Accomplishments: ■ Significant impact on political outcomes nationwide for five decades. From 1868 and for the next 40 years, no candidate got the Republican Party nomination without GAR endorsement. ■ Establishment of Old Soldiers' Homes in the late 1800s led ultimately to the formation of the U.S. Department o f Veterans Affairs. ■ Designation o f May 30 as "Decoration Day" in remembrance of Union veterans. The day later evolved into the nationally observed Memorial Day holiday. As veterans of the Civil War died out - the last Civil War veteran in Livingston County died in 1936 and the last Civil War soldier died in 1956 - the GAR was dissolved and succeeded by the Sons of Union Veterans o f the Civil War. Sources; Dick Hutchins, Wikipedia online encyclopedia, Sons of Union Veterans of the Civil War in the Union Army. “One of my uncles supposedly shook hands with generals Burnside, Sheridan and Custer,” he said. Keith Champagne, of Conway Township, had no ancestor among “ the boys in blue,” but became an associate member because he is an avid Civil War buff. The Livingston County group meets at 7 p.m. on the firs t Tliesday of the month at the Barnard Recreation Center in Howell and is seeking new members.

B e i n f o r m e d The "Parents Protecting Children From Internet Predators" workshop hosted by U.S. Rep Mike Rogers, RBrighton, Monday featured local and national experts who said knowledge, not fear, is the best way to protect children from dangers online. Here are highlights o f their advice. ■ Parents need to have a working knowledge of the computer and the Internet. ■ Learn the abbreviations and acronyms kids use when communicating with others online. ■ Know the software programs, including instant,, messaging '^ogfa'rtis, tHdt children are using. ■ Be aware that online, interactive computer game^, such as RuneScape, also contain features that allows players to chat with each other. ■ Parents should openly ailid frequently talk with childrei i about Internet usage, onlin rules and expectations. ■ Make sure kids know that strangers are strangers, whether they are approaching them on the street or on the Internet and both should be avoided. ■ Never allow a child to arrange a face-to-face meeting with another computer users without parental permission and supervision. ■ Keep the computer in a common area, not isolated in a child's room. ■ Make sure kids never give out identifying information, such as home address, age, schbol, grade or telephone number on an Internet site. ■ Make sure kids do not post their pictures online. ■ Keep track of the time children spend online. ■ Know children's passwords to MySpace and Facebook accounts and check their sites frequently. ■ Learn how to find the "History" folder contained in each Internet browser and check it to monitor sites children are visiting online. ■ Report inappropriate messages and e-mails to local law enforcement officials. Save or print out these messages for the meeting. W h a t t o l o o k f o r These are some signs that someone might be at risk online. ■ Spending large amounts of time online. ■ The computer monitor is quickly turned off or the screen quickly changed when someone comes into the room. ■ Pornographic material has been saved on the computer. ■ Receiving calls from strangers or is making calls to strange numbers. ■ Receiving gifts from someone not known by parents. ■ Using an Internet account that does not belong to parents.

R e a l t o r s ' r a n k s a r e t h i n n i n g Number of agents down 10% from one year ago REAL ESTATE BUILDING BY LISA CAROLIN T h e L i v i n g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s With home sales down by 14 percent from a year ago, it wiU surprise no one that people are leaving the real estate business. The number of agents working in the county is off by about 10 percent, officials say. R e a l e s t a t e u p d a t e Here is an update on some key numbers in the Livingston County residential real estate market, through September. ■ Listings: 6,769, up 3 percent from 6,570 in 2006. ■ Sales: 1,304, down 14.2 percent from 1,519 in 2006. ■ Average sales price: $223,232, down 9.2 percent from $245,849 “We’re down more than I would like to be, and it has to do with the economy and not as many homes selling,” says Ron Zupko,” president of the Livingston Association of Realtors, who works at Keller Williams Realty in Brighton. “We planned for a decrease of about 10 percent of Realtors in the county, which is about what we got.” That translates into the number of Realtors in Livingston County going from 800 to 725 this year. Zupko says agents are leaving Oie business because it ’s tough to maintain an income, so they are moving to other forms of employment. Third-quarter figures on the real estate industry in the county show that the number of homes for sale in Livingston County is up 3 percent from a year ago while sales are down 14 percent from 2006. The average sales price is down more than $22,000 from a year ago. “We’re trying to remain positive and keep Realtors on the forefront of what’s going on with educational programs,” says Zupko. “ I f you are in the market to invest in real estate or to buy, now is one of the best times to do it. There are some good bargains in Livingston County.” The Home Builders Association of Livingston County recently announced that it was laying off two of its three staff members due to budget challenges, which are a result of declining membership. Zupko says he understands tte t builders, too, are feeling the pinch because the population of home buyers has shnuik. Julie Fielek, owner of Fielek Building Inc. as well as a past president of the Michigan Association of Home Builders and incoming second vice president of the Home Builders Association of Livingston County, says that nothing has sold for the last two and a half years at her custom home development in Green Oak Township. “ I t ’s a most disheartening state of affairs what this economy has done to builders and people in the industry,” says Fielek. “Most people in our business say that things haven’t been this bad in a long time, not even in the late 1970s when the interest rates were so high. I think we’ve probably reached the lowest point as we start to use up the existing stock of homes. This is a good time to buy.” Fielek says consumer confidence is important, and the state needs to become more economically viable. “ I don’t think Livingston 'We're trying to remain positive and keep Realtors on the forefront of what's going on with educational programs/ Ron Zupko, president of the Livingston Association of Realtors County has lost its appeal,” says Fielek. “ I t ’s still a terrific location with great housing, and it’s a beautiful place to live.” Zupko says ttiat one growing area of specialty for Realtors is short sales. “ I f you need to sell your house and owe $120,000 on it but can only get $100,000 for it, the Realtor works with a m ortgage lender to ask for a short sale,” explains Zupko. He says that banks and mortgage lenders are dealing with a large number of short sale re quests at this time. Lisa Carolin can be reached at lcarolin@ livingstoncommunitynew5.com or at 810-844-2010.

Council was expected to conduct the firs t of two public hearings on the proposal at 7:30 p.m. Thursday. DDA o ffic ia ls say the entity is v ita l to m a in ta in in g a viable downtown. “ T h is has helped co o rd inate business in the comm u n ity in w o rk in g toward a common goal, in w o rk in g for a b e tte r community,” says DDA Chairman Bob Herbst. “ I t ’s made a w o rld o f d iffe rence in how the town has developed, in how i t ’s perceived by the world, to make it a b e tte r place.” The DDA has its c ritic s , in c lu d in g R ic k Gienapp, a fo rm e r C ity Council member and the owner of M e x ican Jones Restaurante. Gienapp points out th a t if not extended, the DDA w ill cease to exist in 2015. “ I don’t understand the urgency fo r an extension,” he said. “ The DDA has done some g reat things , b ut why they have to tie the hands of fu tu re decision-makers, I don’t know.” The DDA is funded from ta x revenues from o ther ta x in g u n its , such as L iv ingston County, County EMS (ambulance service), B rig h ton D is tr ic t L ib ra ry and H u ro n -C lin to n M e tro p o litan A u th o rity , which operates the re g io n ’s metropark s . P u b lic schools - in c lu d in g the B rig h to n Area School D is tr ic t and the L iv in g s to n Educational Service Agency in te rm e d ia te school d is tr ic t - are exempt. DDA A dm in is tra to r Dennis Whitney responds th a t i t ’s necessary in o rd e r to bond fo r projects. “ Most DDA p rojec ts are done by bonding and paid off in fu tu re years,” he said. Whitney says bonds are ty p ic a lly paid back over 20 o r more years, impossible w ith o u t extending the DDA’s life. The DDA’s 2007-08 budget is $770,000, w h ich is being used fo r downtown in fra s tru c tu re and enhancement projects. H e rb s t says many o f the improvements downtown B rig h to n has realized over the past several years - a ll o f them p a rtia lly o r w h o lly DDA-funded - wouldn’t have been completed w ith o u t it. “ I t ’s a p a rt o f the c ity th a t probably w ouldn’t have been taken care o f th ro u g h the re g u la r governm ental p ro cesses,” he says. Gienapp argues the cost, fo r business owners, is too great. “ For a group who considers themselves conservative, they sure lik e to spend money,” he said.

Now we’re on the prowl for someone equally deserving of recognition this year. We know you’re out there. Last year, when we established the new honor, we had eight nominations. We selected Harris, the volunteer director of the Gleaners Shared Harvest Pantry, as our firs t award winner. Julie Harris The goal in was the establishing the recipient award was to of the first shine a light on Livingston community ser- Citizen of vice done by the the Year. many volunteers in Livingston Coimty. To help that process along, the award carries with it a $1,000 check to be given to the winner’s selected charity. Last year we made a donation to Gleaners. In addition, we will pick three finalists, and profiles of the winner and finalists will appear in The Livingston Community News early in 2008. But before we get to that point, we need your help in bringing nominations to us. Who do you know who has stepped up and delivered on a community project this year? Who do you know who has said “yes” over and over again when asked to help? Just about any adult in the county is eligible. Those not eligible are public oflScials, elected officials and those whose contributions are a part of their jobs. We’re looking for people who have done something particularly noteworthy dming the course of the past year. Anyone is welcome to submit a nomination. Just provide us with the basic information and a brief commentary explaining why your nominee should be Livingston County Citizen of the Year. Among those recognized last year was the leader of a construction group that makes home repairs for people who cannot afford them; a man who matches people with volunteer opportunities throughout the county; and someone who led the charge for improving a local trail. Those same kinds of people have been hard at work again this year all over Livingston County. We think they deserve recognition for their efforts. If all goes well, you will b u iy us in nominations. So, between now and the Dec. 17 deadline, give some thought to the neighbor who is always volunteering to coach, regardless of the sport. What about the woman from church who always says yes when asked to help? W io in your service club stepped forward when no one else would to lead a community service project? Those are the people we hope you will bring to our attention for this honor. Here are the basics on how to nominate someone: ■ Mail, hand deliver or fax us a letter describing how the nominee made the community better in 2007. ■ Tell us how to eontact you and the nominee. ■ Send m a te ria l to Citizen of the Year Award, The L iv ings ton Community News, 420 W.

Who knows where this w ill lead.” Pathway’s teachers, occupational therapists and speech and language pathologists worked throughout the summer to b ring this opportunity to students who need extra support, said Chantal Charron, a speech and language pathologist.

Her father abused her until she was 18; she says victims can heal their pain BY USA CAROLIN T h e L i v i n g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s The keynote speaker at the Child Abuse Prevention Coimc il’s conference on sexual abuse Nov. 20 has a personal story to te ll about the devastating impact of sexual abuse on children. Her name is Marilyn Van Derbur, and she is a former Miss America. Van Derbur was sexually assaulted by her father fi-om the time she was 5 to age 18. She says she was overwhelmed by the feelings of conflict that resulted from the sexual abuse and was forced to split her mind in half in order to survive. I t wasn’t im til she was 48 years old that she broke her silence, and now she wants to reach as many people as she can. “When I was at my darkest time in my late 40s, I kept saying to my husband, L a rry (Atler), who was a great strength in my life, I wish I could ju s t find one woman who has come through this kind of experience,” Van Derbur says. “ I was afraid it would never end.” Van Derbur had been a motivational speaker, and when she finally started to deal w ith the incest she had experienced, she says she knew it was her mission to spend the res t of her life helping others by talking about her own experience. “We go through so much anger at our violators and at the people who didn’t protect us,” says Van Derbur. “ People ask if I am peaceful. The answer is yes, and that is why I speak to tens of thousands of people every year - to let them know SEE SPEAKER, 85 C a l l t o a c t i o n ■ What: Child Abuse Prevention Council's Community Call-to-Action Conference. ■ When: Tuesday, Nov. 20, 8:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m. ■ Where: Livingston Educational Service Agency, 1425 W.

The second annual Haunted Forest Walk brought in donations by charging an admission of nonperishable food items to walk through the trail designed to entertain the elementary schoolchildren in the neighborhood. Carl Winn, Calvin Trescott, Wesley Trescott, Donald Gusfa, and Claire Winn spent weeks clearing the woods for the trail. They recruited friends and neighbors to become mummies, witches, talking trees, a vampire, a gorilla, a fortune teller and more. Other neighbors provided holiday refreshments. The evening was a big success, bringing in more than 100 pounds of food and financial donations able to purchase an additional 150 pounds of food for Gleaners.

The state-of-the-art MRI machine is at St. Joseph Mercy Liv ings ton Hospital in Howell and close to 200 patients have used the machine since it arrived in late October. According to Cheryl Rusk, manager of radiology services at St. Joseph Mercy L iv ingston, the fixed M R I machine is available fo r more hours and for more needs than the previously available MR I u n it th a t would dock at the hospital and was only used fo r outpatient procedures. In p a tie n t and emergency patients who needed an MR I had to be tra n s fe rre d to the medical system’s Ann A rbor- area campus in Superior Township before the fixed u n it was in place. Rusk said th a t an M R I is an imaging device th a t a llows fo r visualization of soft tissue structures of the body. “We used the mobile MRI for seven years in Livingston County, b ut the demand has increased so much th a t we are excited to be able to offer the community this service,” she said.. “The new MRI machine let’s us do a lot of orthopedic work as well as MR arthography, which shows different structures in the jo in t ... and we can also look at veins and arteries.” She said th a t she’s gotten a good response from patients who are glad o be able to have more fle x ib ility VOLUNTEERS This listing o f volunteer ||^ opportunities is compiled by the Livingston County United Way.

THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 16, 2007 B5 Library readies for cookie swap Exchange helps busy families get variety of treats BY TOM TOLEN T h e L i v i n g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s Patrice Rentsch likes the Pinckney Community Public L ib ra ry ’s annual Cookie Swap so much she w ill be coming back fo r a th ird time this year. “ I love it. I t ’s fun,” says the Hamburg Township woman, • whose cookie contribution last year was snowballs. Rentsch is a d is trib u to r for Reliv international, a n u tr itional supplement company, and works mostly out of her home, giving her more time to devote to her three children. ^ H e r firs t year pa rtic ip a ting in the library-sponsored cookie exchange was not her first: Rentsch also took part in a s im ila r event when she was employed at Citizens In surance in Howell. Rentsch makes a different kind of cookie every year. “ I like to tr y new recipes,” she says. She also experiments w ith the recipes, sometimes adapting the general recipe to her taste and ideas. And she likes the fact that i t ’s an ac tiv ity in which her daughters, now 10 and 13, can participate. Lib ra ry employee Ann Render says there’s a very good ^ reason why such events have • become so popular, not only in the area but nationally. I t ’s the fact that people have gotten so busy. “ Baking several kinds of cookies and other holiday goodies used to be traditional at Christmastime, ‘ but now all of us are too busy for that,” Render says. “ I t ’s an easy way to get a huge varie ty (of cookies).” Rentsch gets her recipes from several cookbooks, in cluding one compiled from recipes submitted by par- FILE.THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS Cindy Delongchamp of Pinckney looks over an array of homemade goodies at the Pinckney Community Public Library's holiday cookie exchange, part of its new Library After Hours program for adults. ents of children attending the Brighton Co-op Preschool. The Pinckney L ib ra ry Cookie Swap, now in its fourth year, has become one of the most popular events in its L ib rary A fter Hours series. “A nything to do w ith food, and people tend to come,” says L ib ra ry D ire c to r Hope Siasoso. “ Like they say, food is n u rturing, and the sharing of recipes makes people th in k they are in a nice community.” Rentsch says participating in the cookie exchange gives a person a chance to meet new people. “ ” I t ’s a great oppo rtu n ity to share interests,” she says. This year, the exchange is scheduled fo r Wednesday, Dec. 12, sta rtin g at 6:30 p.m., in the lib ra ry conference room. The lib ra ry asks each person who signs up to bring in a half-dozen cookies fo r each person i f 10 or more sign up, o r one dozen per person if fewer than 10 are coming, plus a dozen more to pass around. The bottom line is th a t each one ends up w ith a lo t of cookies. For instance, if 14 people sign up, each goes home w ith seven dozen cookies, Render says. Participants also are asked to bring in 15 copies of th e ir cookie recipe to distribute to others attending. To s tart out, cider is served while people get acquainted before the exchange begins, w ith holiday m usic playing in the background. A fte r that, the cookies - wrapped and placed on cookie trays - are put on two long tables, and people circle the tables, picking out cookies from each person’s production and placing them in th e ir own container to take home. Render says one woman drove all the way from Wa- A g o o d e x c h a n g e Here are some general cookie exchange rules, gleaned from several Web sites devoted to the events. ■ All cookies must be homemade. ■ Usually each participant is asked to bring a half dozen or a dozen cookies. ■ Prepare Christmas or holiday cookies rather than chocolate chip or peanut butter cookies. ■ Arrange the cookies in a basket or on a platter and attach copies of recipe. ■ RSVP as soon as possible so the host can avoid duplication. ■ No-bake cookies generally are not permitted; some are squeamish about unbaked cookies that have been touched by human hands. terford to attend after seeing a newspaper story about the event. The advantage of cookie exchanges is that each person only has to bake one kind of cookie, and yet w ill walk away with many different varieties. Rentsch says the cookies she brings home from the exchange would go very quickly if she allowed them to. “ I have to set a lim it,” she says. ‘We want to save some for Christmas.” T om T o le n c a n b e r e a c h e d a t t t o le n @ liv in g s t o n c o m m u n it y n e w s . c o m o r a t 8 1 0 - 8 4 4 - 2 0 0 9 . H y p n o th e r a p is t o f fe r s h o l id a y fo o d fo r t h o u g h t People can tell themselves not to overeat this season, he says BY LINDA THEIL N e w s S p e c i a l W r i t e r I f Curtis Watkins says you w ill not gain weight over the j j^ holidays, you can believe it. ^ The Howell hypnotherap is t - who has had a th rivin g national practice since 1983 - has a not-so-secret mantra fo r everyone he meets: As you think, so you are. “ The mind’s a very simple tool,” Watkins says. “ I t obeys what we program in. People don’t realize that they’re in control of th e ir mind. They can te ll themselves they’re going to enjoy the holidays and not overeat.” Florine Mark, who founded the Weight Watchers Inc. Michigan empire in 1966, agrees. “ You have to have a positive m in d -se t,” M a rk says. “ L o o k in the m ir ro r every ^ m orning. Look in y o u r eyes and say, ‘Good m orning! Today’s going to be a good day.’ You can do any thing you w a n t ju s t fo r today. I f you can make today a good one, before you know it, you’ve had a whole week and you feel better. You ju s t feel b e tte r i f you eat healthy and move. And when you have self-respect, you can H o l i d a y t i p s ■ Registered dietitian and Life Coach Janet Simpson: Buy a small gratitude journal and begin on Thanksgiving to count your blessings - every night from Thanksgiving through New Year's Day write down five things you're grateful for that day. ■ Weight Watchers' Florine Mark: There's no holiday from healthy eating. Although people tend to think o f the holidays as a nonstop party and feast, the holidays are really only a few big events. Even if you eat everything you want at those meals, it's not going to matter if you eat healthy during the rest of the month. Break the holiday cycle o f the more you eat, the worse you feel and the worse you feel, the more you eat. ■ Hypnotherapist Curtis Watkins: The mind is a very simple tool; it obeys what we program in. As you think, so your are - have fun and think positive. Howell hypnotherapist Curtis Watkins' motto is "as you think, so you are." do anything w ith yo u r life .” Hamburg Township d ie titian, life coach, and 60-yearold triathlete, Janet Simpson, knows a lot about personal power. “ I would say achievement is 99 p e rce n t m in d set,” Simpson says. “ F irs t you need to be educated and know how to take yo u r mind to th a t place, then i t ’s a choice th a t you make. T h a t’s something everyone can do. I ’m not saying i t ’s always easy when th a t plate of cookies is s ta rin g you in the face, b u t you can make the choice to w a lk away.” Simpson recommends taking a few deep breaths and then ju s t walk away fo r 20 minutes. While you are away, count your blessings. “ I can’t stress th a t enough,” Simpson says. “When you count yo u r blessings, i t takes you away from the stress yo u ’re under. From what my clients re p o rt to me th a t s tra te g y is about 90 pe rce n t effective - ju s t g iv ing y o u rs e lf th a t lit tle b it o f space.” All three experts also agree on the importance of avoiding the unending cycle of indulgence, self-loathing, comfort-seeking, and back to indulgence brought about by holiday revelry. “ Quite often, people who are struggling w ith th e ir weight get caught up in feeling bad about themselves and eating something to comfort themselves,” Simpson says. “Holiday eating is a perfect example. Holiday times can be stressful to people so they navigate toward the comfort foods.” “ Thanksgiving is the signal,” M a rk says. “ The more you eat the worse you feel, the worse you feel the more you eat.” “ The negative thing gets in th e ir way,” Watkins says. “ I t gets really strong.” So what can you do about it? The experts recommend: ■ 'Take a walk. ■ Take a nap. ■ Take a class. ■ Take a deep breath. ■ Stay positive. ■ Be good to yourself; treat yourself w ith kindness. S P E A K E R FROM Bi Conference m ean t to d raw a tten tio n to sexual abuse that if you do the work of healing, the pain w ill end.” “ Child sexual abuse is more prevalent than people want to believe,” says Deanna Norris, program director for the Child Abuse Prevention Council. “ It can and does happen everywhere and, most often, perpetrators of sexual abuse are people who children and their parents know and tru s t.” The purpose of the conference is to draw attention to the issue and to encourage people to protect children. The conference is aimed at all adults who have o r w ork with children or w ith organizations that serve families. Van Derbur says, “ i t ’s im portant that people who w ork in child advocacy understand what happens to a life when no prevention o r intervention occurs. I t is a privilege to come to Livingston County and ta lk to people about this.” She says she never leaves a conference u n til everyone has said everything they want to say to her. She also maintains a Web site at www.MissAmericaByDay. com. Also at the conference, a new child sexual abuse prevention program called Stewards of Children w ill be introduced. It teaches adults seven steps for protecting cluldren. The Child Abuse Prevention Council has two trained facilitators who w ill offer training sessions to adults to recognize the signs and symptoms of abuse, to respond appropriately to suspected abuse, and to minimize opportunities for sexual abuse to occur in the firs t place. The training is available at a cost of $10 per person by contacting the Child Abuse Prevention Council at 517-548-2200. Child Abuse Prevention is a program of the Women’s Resource Center and is funded in part by the Livingston County United Way and Michigan Children’s 'Trust Plmd.

Students Craig Murphy and Brian Porter set everything up fo r the others who m ix the dough, ro ll it out, cut out the biscuits and bake them. “We enjoy doing it,” Porte r said. “ I t ’s a lot of fun, and we’re helping o ther people do th e ir jobs.” Each w ork station has a detailed in s tru c tio n sheet that tells students what to do. Tasks meet the ability level of all students. Even those who don’t read can do jobs by looking at pictures on the in s truc tion sheets. Students also package and market the biscuits, which can be bought by the public and w ill be fo r sale at the school’s Christmas bazaar. “Doing all of this really keeps your mind thinking,” Murphy said. “ The experience is good, too.” Lacey’s Love Dog Biscuit Company is operated completely by students. Those who need extra help get it from peer coaches that are p a rt of LESA’s Adult Transitions Program, whose special needs adults have baked and marketed a variety of cookies fo r years. Money raised by the dog biscuit sales is used to fund student activities and purchase classroom equipment at Pathway, Charron said. “ This is the firs t time our students have had meaningful jobs,” Charron said. “They have to p u t work dates on th e ir calendars, show up on time, keep appointments, greet and work w ith others and stay on the job.

The shows are cheap to make. And it is, at times, interesting to watch the human train wrecks that can occur on camera. I don’t know that I ’m brave enough to throw myself out there for public humiliation, but three local residents did - L a rry Kelly and Heather McNamara, both of Brighton, and Jim Paradise, of Pinckney. Surprisingly, all three said they had good experiences and would do it again. But each experienced at least one moment where reality can be painful to relive on TV Kelly and Paradise were part of the summer series on The Golf Channel called “ Fore Inventors Only,” where inventors pitched their products to celebrity judges in hopes of hitting it big. Kelly’s Gyro Swing, a 3-wood with a m otor inside that forces players to follow a proper swing plane, finished in sbdh place. He’s since sold the development rights and expects the product to launch at the PGA Merchandise Show in Orlando in January. “When I saw it filmed, it was amazing how different it was from how I remembered it,” he said. “ I hated watching every episode. I watched through the crack in my hand. What a goofball (I was).” Kelly said in one scene, the show’s producers asked him to pitch the product without getting too technical (which he said he did), but the final cut showed him doing the exact opposite. “ I t was obvious they put their own story in,” he said. Paradise also was the victim of the final edit during filming about his “Glove Grabber.” During field testing, a guest judge raved about it, he recalled. “ She loved the product. She had it hanging on her bag. She asked for more,” Paradise said. “But when they showed it on TV she said, “Yeah I think this is nice, but I wouldn’t use it.’” He didn’t advance after that to the top 16, but said the exposure from the show made the disappointments all worth it. “You ju s t got the feeling they (the show’s producers) knew which ones (inventions) they wanted at the end of the show,” he said. “ Is that true? I don’t know. But out of all the people I met down there, I got some nice contacts and good friends. That type of stuff helped tremendously.” McNamara was one of the 20 competitors chosen to travel more than 1,000 mites through Nevada’s backcountry for a promotional show and DVD called “The Nevada Passage.” Clips can be seen on www. utube.com o r www.nevadapassage. com. McNamara’s team finished last, so she wasn’t given much airtime, but the TV show did spotlight her most embarrassing moment. She buried the tire of her ATV in a sand dune. “ Even though it was humiliating and it was my mistake - 1 felt like I was the ditzy broad who couldn’t drive - it was still funny and a cute part of the show,” McNamara said. “ If that’s how I get my 15 seconds of fame, so be it. “You can’t worry about looking like an idiot. You have to accept that. You are what you are.” And, like it or not, that’s the truth behind reality TV Jason Deegan can be reached at jdeegan@ livingstoncommunitynews.com or at 810-844-2012.

T U R F FROM Cl L ittle standing w ith indoor lacrosse crosse continues its explosive growth locally, a future expansion could be launched. Lemley said a recent soccer session attracted roughly 100 teams, with up to 15 players on each team. Capacity is 130 teams, he said. Presidio said he already has designs approved by the planning commission to add onto the building, which was built in 1996. “We are reatfy to pull the trigger if the numbers (of athletes) warrant it,” he said. Presidio and Lemley hope there’s enough interest to form a Sunday lacrosse league. Drop-in games have been held the past three weeks, playing an indoor version caUed “ box lacrosse.” Much like indoor soccer, it is fast-paced and uses a smaller goal. Jim Colling, a volunteer coach who works with youth lacrosse teams in Hartland, said his players have enjoyed playing at Kicks & Sticks. “Box lacrosse is played quicker and kids have to work more,” he said. “There is not much standing around.” He said the Hartland program usually rents gym space or is forced to travel to Wixom to train indoors in winter. Kcks & Sticks, located on Victory Drive ju s t off Grand River Avenue near Home Depot, is open evenings from 5:30-10:30 p.m. and all day Saturdays and Sundays. For information bn lacrosse, soccer or flag football leagues, call 517-545-7778. “This is definitely going to help players interested in getting better in the offseason, and they do not have to travel far,” Colling said.

The Brighton Cinema 20, and its sister theaters in the MJR chain, are on the cutting edge of the new technology, having recently begun showing movies in digital format. MJR Theaters, which owns the Brighton Cinema 20 and seven other movie theaters in southeastern Michigan, recently completed installation of the hardware and software necessary to download and play digital movies on all of the company’s 116 screens. Nationally, only about 4,000 screens out of nearly 39,000 - or slightly more than one in 10 - are so equipped, according to DCinemaToday, a Web site devoted to digital cinema.

But this year, she’ll probably spend a bit less than last year. “I’m spending all my money these days on gasoline,” Andrews said. “Budget cuts at my school have cut my earnings and I’m trying to be conservative this year.” As the 2007 holiday shopping marathon gets rolling, this is not the news local retailers want to hear, but it’s probably a common story, said Dennis Whitney, administrator of the Brighton Downtown Development Authority. “The holiday shopping season is shaping up to be very challenging,” Whitney said. “With the price of gas right now, all bets are off. Until this gas thing got so carried away, I said it might be tough, but this is just ridiculous.” Purchasers, Whitney said, also are worried about what the increased costs of heating, food and health care are doing to their budgets. “Without a doubt, I think people are going to be very reserved in their purchases. I think it’s going to be extremely challenging for everybody.” The National Retail Federation predicts 2007 holiday sales nationally to be 4 percent higher than 2006, the slowest growth since 2002, when retail sales increased only 1.3 percent.

We’ll be doing all of our standard events, including...

Former City Council member Larry Schilfinger addressed council, asking why there is such a strong push to extend the DDA’s life by 30 years when it is not set to expire until 2015. City Manager Dana Fbster said extending the DDA’s life is essential to be able to bond for long-range projects. DDA funding comes fi^m capturing a portion of the increase in the taxable value of property collected by local governmental units (except school districts). The final public hearing is set for Dec. 6, to be followed by council action on the request.

Grand River, Suite 600, Brighton. “Stem cell research is a topic that is of vital concern to many Michigan residents,” said Donna Anderson, vice chairwoman of the Livingston County Democrats. “This event is intended for anyone who has a debilitating disease ... and wonders how long they must suffer before science finds a cure.” Details: 810-229-4212.

N am e o f d e c e a s e d r e le a s e d by p o lic e Michigan State Police have released the name of a pedestrian killed last week when he tried to cross a street in the dark. John Fitzgerald Coleman, 39, of Brighton, was declared dead at the scene after he was struck just before 7 p.m. Nov. 15 on Old US-23 near Weber Street in Brighton Township. IVoopers said they don’t plan to seek charges against a 69-year-old Brighton man who was driving southbound on Old US-23 because the crash did not appear to be his fault. They said last week that he did not appear to have been speeding or drinking before the crash.

Mott patient B Y L I S A A L L M E N D IN G E R N e w s S p e c i a l W r i t e r Although it was only Nov. 18, a large group of elves made sure Christmas arrived early at the home of 15-yearold Morgan Carey of Pinckney. Donning a Santa cap, Morgan wrapped herself in a plaid blanket and ventured outside to see the work of about 40 community volunteers who arrived at her home last Sunday to make a dream come true. “I never had my house decorated before,” Morgan said of her wish to have an all-out Christmas this year. Morgan was diagnosed last February with an aggressive brain tumor and has been undergoing chemotherapy and radiation treatment at C.S. Mott Children’s Hospital in Ann Arbor. Friends, neighbors and members of 242, a Brighton Church, heard about her wish and made sure it came true - in a big way. By the time the volunteers had finished, every shrub and tree and the outline of her home were covered in twinkling holiday lights. Morgan’s front yard view from the living room window now includes a decorated tree, lit reindeer and a candy cane lane. With garlands, balls, wreaths and lights, the home and property were transformed into a delightful Christmas wonderland. “I expected about four people. Who are all these people?” Morgan asked after coming outside to see all the activity. “I think the Lord has given me a lot,” Morgan said. “And I’m thankful and excited for all of this.” The Carey family hasn’t lived in Pinckney very long. Morgan’s mother. Dawn Carey, said the community, after learning about her daughter’s illness, has embraced the newcomers. Morgan’s brother Ryan recently moved back to Michigan from Illinois where he was going to school to be with his family.

We are celebrating as best we can. The time we share right now is important.” Shirley Marshall, a member of the Pinckney Lions Club, said the group has rallied around the family. “We’re supplying the tree and lights and brought a fruit basket and gift certificates to a local grocery store,” Marshall said. She said the Lions did a fundraiser in April and raised more than $4,000. Valerie Chalk, of Pinckney, orchestrated the tree trimming because her daughter, Christine, and Morgan are good friends. “I hope the house looks like Morgan would want it,” Christine Chalk said. “She wanted I to go all out.” Although Christine was excited about the number of people who arrived to do the decorating, she admitted, “It’s exciting, but it makes me kind of sad, too.” “We wanted this Christmas to be the most joyous ever this year,” Dawn Carey said. The family has moved around a lot in their 22 years together, she said. Perhaps in Pinckney, they have finally found a home. Morgan’s father, Kevin, is convinced he and his family “landed here for a reason. We didn’t know anyone, and from the time she was diagnosed, there have been meals, prayers and financial help,” he said. “You learn the goodness of people when a tragedy like this happens,” Kevin Carey said. the garage, and went through thick smoke to get to them. He went back in three more times to bring out three dogs, a cat and two iguanas. Hamburg 'Township firefighters arrived and went into the house with Bullock to bring out a rabbit, police said. Fire Chief Douglas Berry said firefighters contained the fire in about 30 minutes, but the garage was destroyed. In a statement, a PETA official said, “'These animals owe their lives to the compassionate men who braved flames to carry them to safety.” Hell S co u ts re c e iv e $ 8 ,0 0 0 from ro d e o The Pinckney-Hamburg- Lakeland Service Unit of the Girl Scouts of America has received $8,000 from September’s Helluva Rodeo. 'The event benefits groups and programs that focus on youth and families. The Girl Scouts were the major beneficiary of this year’s rodeo, which drew record attendance. They plan to use it to buy needed supplies for local troops, as well as stock a lending closet of camping equipment. The Friends of the Lakeland and the Pinckney Youth Revolution Asset 'Team also each received $1,250. Livingston County H e a rin g s e t in f a t a l m a u lin g c a se A tentative date has been set for a preliminary hearing for a Livingston County woman whose dogs mauled two people to death in September. Prosecutor David E Morse said attorneys have decided to have the examination for Diane R. Cockrell Dec. 27-28, but he said that date could change. Cockrell was the owner of four bulldogs that killed Cheryl Harper, 56, and Edward Gierlach, 91, on Sept. 13 in rural Iosco Township. Their families have filed wrongful death lawsuits against Cockrell, who kept 10 dogs in a building on her property. Morse said it appears the dogs had dug out of the building through a dirt floor several times. All of the dogs were euthanized after the killings. Cockrell faces up to 15 years in prison if she is convicted on charges of possession of dangerous dogs causing death.

The retreat focuses on leadership, community and being disciples of Christ, said facilitator Linda Tedrick. “When the eighth-graders remain focused on these goals, the entire school finds it easier to follow suit,” Tedrick said. Students began the day by identifying the gifts they bring ' to the community, said Linda Mable, St. Mary’s eighthgrade teacher. The day also features prayer service and a brainstorming session on service projects they can perform for the parish, the school and the community.

The first curtain rises at 7:30 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 1 in the Jane Tasch Theatre, located at Pathfinder School, near the comer of McGregor Road and M-36. Subsequent performances follow at 7:30 p.m. Dec. 7-8 and 2 p.m. Dec. 2 and Dec. 9. “This show is fabulous, fabulous,” said Lisa Craig, director and a Pinckney Community Schools vocal teacher. “As they say in New York, six generations have read the story; this one will sing it.” This is the first performance of this script in Livingston County, Craig said. She was driven to bring it to the Pinckney Players after seeing the Broadway musical with some students while on a trip to New York City. “The Pinckney Players are trying really hard as a group to bring some new works to Livingston County,” Craig said. “We think people will love this one.” Like Louisa May Alcott’s book, the theatrical version of “Little Women” is set in New England during the American Ci\^ War. The family patriarch, Mr. March, is fighting with the Union Army while his wife, Marmee, and the four March sisters, Meg, Jo, Amy and Beth keep up high spirits at home. The plot of overcoming char- COURTESY, CLAIRE TIMKO The Broadway musical adaptation of Louisa May Alcott's "Little Women" will be performed by members of the Pinckney Players this December. The cast features, from left, Sonja Marquis as Meg, Marlene Inman as Jo, Sally Mikat as Marmee, Katie Huber- Welty as Beth and Jill Quagliata as Amy. acter flaws, such as Meg’s vanity, Jo’s hot temper, Beth’s shyness and Amy’s selfishness, rings true through the plot and musical score, Craig said. “All the moments you remember will ring true,” she said. “It has all the classic pieces of the book, right up to the huge emotional range. It’s a good story to lead us into the holiday season. The issues are as relevant today as they were when this was written.” Costuming has been one of the biggest challenges the Pinckney Players have had to overcome to perform “Little Women,” Craig said. “We’ve never done a Civil War-period piece so we didn’t have a whole stockpile of costumes to draw fi-om,” she said. “We’ve made some and borrowed some and pulled together a good wardrobe.” Marmee, the matriarch of the March family, is played by Sally Mikat. Meg is played by Pinckney Players veteran Sonja Marquis, Jo is played by Marlene Inman, Amy is played by Jill Quagliata and Beth is played by Katie Huber-Welty. All are voice teachers or professional musicians. Advance tickets for “Little Women” are on sale now at Pinckney Community Education, Britton llixedo Shop and Pinckney’s Busch’s supermarket. Cost is $13 for adults and $11 for students and senior citizens. Music will be performed by a live orchestra.

C o u r s e i n C h i n e s e t o r e c e i v e s c r u t i n y Howell school board wants to hear more BYTOMTOLEN T h e L i v i n g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s The Howell school board will likely hear more at its meeting Monday about the new Chinese language course, an issue that caused a stir at the Nov. 12 board meeting. 'Trustee Dean Miller questioned why the course was approved by administration without first going through the Curriculum Council and Board of Education, as policy requires. The course was approved by Superintendent Chuck Breiner. All fifth-graders in the seven Howell elementary schools - about 800 in all - have been taking the course since September, shortly after the start of the school year. Jeanne Farina, associate superintendent for curriculum, staff development and assessment, said although the Curriculum Council, and then the school board, normally approve a new course, it does not always happen that way. “We have brought other pilots without board approval, because of the timing,” Farina said. Normally, curriculum changes for the coming school year are approved by the last meeting in January. “In this case the opportunity came at the end of the school year,” she said, adding it was too late to go through the regular process. Board President Phil Westmoreland said things are different now. “With the new board, it’s a different direction than in the past,” he said. “It’s been a different working relationship” with the superintendent. Westmoreland said he was “kind of surprised” when he heard the course had been approved administratively. 'It's a perfect example of why we need parents on the Curriculum Council. ... It speaks to a larger desire for parents to be involved.' Wendy Day , Howell Public Schools trustee “It’s a perfect example of why we need parents on the Curriculum Council,” said 'Trustee Wendy Day. “We need another layer of accountability, and it speaks to a larger desire for parents to be involved.” The Curriculum Council, composed of 35 teachers and administrators, and new Howell Board of Education Secretary Kim Shumaker, met last week. Although members voted 10-4 (with several abstentions) to retroactively approve the course, the yes votes did not comprise a majority of the committee. According to Farina, there will be another vote and the results wouldn’t likely be known until Monday. Miller said he was upset because he feels the issue increases the mistrust that has developed between the current board and administration due to several controversial issues that have arisen over the last few years. Day has other concerns. “We cut gifted and talented, Destination Imagination and Spanish,” she said. “We have so many issues on the table we have to take it one bite at a time. (Right now), we need to buy buses.” But Farina said it’s important that younger students get a grounding in foreign languages, particularly Chinese, since China is the world’s fastest-growing economy. “All the research we had done indicated that to be competitive in the world, we had better start teaching Chinese,” she said. Farina confirmed the course grew out of a visit by Breiner to China last year. Farina said pilot programs normally are for one school year and then are reassessed, then continued as a pilot, made a permanent program or terminated. The language class is being offered through the Michigan State University Confucius Institute, and the school district is paying $35,000 this year to have teacher Lishuai Jia, a graduate of Beijing Normal University, teach the class. The course is being taught for one class period per week for 40 minutes. “It is a great course and has been met with great enthusiasm by the students and their parents,” Farina said. “The (students) have really enjoyed it.” Howell is not unique in offering an elementary-level foreign language program. Pinckney Community Schools now teaches Spanish at all elementary grade levels. “The intention is to create language awareness and sounds,” said Nancy Staub, Pinckney’s assistant superintendent for curriculum and instruction, adding that the program will be offered in sixth grade next year, making Spanish available for the first time in all grades, K-12.

OPPAT T h e L i v i n g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s It’s tough to dig deeper as the economy worsens, but that’s exactly when it’s most important. 'The annual Warm the Children program, sponsored by The Livingston Community News and The Ann Arbor News is asking its readers to donate enough this year to buy $90 in new winter clothing for a record 2,500 local children. When The News kicked off the Warm the Children program 11 years ago, volunteer shoppers helped families buy warm clothes for 958 kids, spending $80 each. Last year, readers and local businesses donated $179,694 to buy new clothes for 2,000 children, 400 more than ever before. The News planned to shop for 2,400 children this year because referrals from social workers soared in 2006. But by October, the newspaper had more than 2,500 requests from social workers. Norma Chase, who administers the program for The News, said she believes readers will respond, tough times notwithstanding. Certainly they’ve responded by volunteering to help - in droves. An estimated 570 people volunteered through their churches, civic groups and as individuals last year to help families shop for the clothes. Livingston County has H o w i t w o r k s ■ School counselors or state social workers identify children who are under 16 and need winter clothing, and make a referral to Warm the Children. ■ Volunteers enter information about each child on $90 purchase orders. ■ The News, which covers all administrative costs for the program, assigns the purchase orders to local churches, civic organizations and individuals that have volunteered to shop with the families at locai Meijer stores. ■ The shoppers - nearly 600 of them last year - meet families at the stores, to help shop or to make sure all of the purchases qualify for the program and collect the receipts. Volunteers and families never touch any money. ■ Completed purchase orders and receipts are reconciled by Warm the Children, and the program pays for the merchandise. stepped up to the plate with more volunteer shoppers than ever. They are coming from the Brighton Church of Christ, St. Patrick Catholic Church and St. Mary Magdalen Catholic Church. The Women’s Resource Center and volunteers for the Gleaners Community Food Bank in Livingston County also will shop for families, according to Chase. Members of the Oak Pointe Country Club near Brighton alrea^ have volunteered to shop with 110 families this year. “Last year, we got warm clothes for more kids than ever before, but we ended the Christmas season knowing that there were more kids in need,” said Ed Petykiewicz, editor of The Ann Arbor News. “This year, there are even more kids facing cold weather without enough warm clothing and we’re asking our readers to help them. “For some of these kids, the warm clothing is the only present they’ll see,” he said.

Movie patrons said Monday they have been impressed with the improvement in picture quality of digital over film. “I noticed a great improvement,” said William Austin of Brighton, who has seen “quite a few” movies since the digital system was installed. He said the picture is “crisper and cleaner, and there is greater resolution.” Although MJR Theatres had digital sound before, the audio track accompanied the film track, the digital sound was converted to analog, resulting in a slight diminution in sound quality. Now, he says, the realism is greater, and “the sound is exactly the same in every square inch of the auditorium,” Mihalich says. “It’s pure, it’s incredible, and the picture is clear as can be,” he says. Another advantage is that if there is a blockbuster, and not enough screens in a movie theater showing that particular movie to meet a huge crowd, with digital technology other auditoriums can easily be switched over to show the hit movie. “From the master server, each auditorium can download the movie very quickly and easily,” Mihalich says. The change to digital has other benefits. “It opens the door for a lot of other things (including showing of live concerts and sporting events),” Mihalich says. Despite the switchover, the Brighton Cinema 20 will still be able to show movies put on film, which generally won’t be necessary, since 95 percent of all movies now made are offered in both film and digital format. Mihalich says a malady inherent to film - the reduction in quality that occurs because of multiple copies and playing the movie repeatedly on a projector - does not exist with digital movies. In the long run, MJR will save money, although the initial investment - an amount Mihalich declined to reveal - was significant. Brighton and Mihalich’s other theaters also are showing movies in the Disney Digital 3-D format, such as “Tim Burton’s The Nightmare Before Christmas.” Such movies require handing out special glasses to patrons. In the future, Mihalich says, he will be able to show movies made in other, emerging 3-D formats.

THEATER FROM A1 Some original details would be preserved cept very well.” His best-case scenario: “We hope to be done by late April for the release of the new “Raiders of the Lost Ark” movie. The decision to add screens at 315 E. Grand River Ave. is a financial one, according to Chandler. Calling the theater a “feast or famine business,” he said it is important to give moviegoers options. With only two screens. Chandler is presented with choices of which movies to bring to the Howell, but can only choose based on his perceptions of which ones will be the top attractions. “We have a better chance to play the No. 1 and No. 2 movies if we have additional screens,” he said. There also is the issue of movie exclusivity. Once he has decided which of the two movies to show, he is bound by contract to show only those two movies on his screens for a set amount of time. That is a problem for small-town theaters who find themselves in the middle of what Chandler calls “blockbuster clustering.” “Production companies are fighting with each other with their release dates. The result; There are too many films happening all at once,” he said, “and we can show two.” Adding one or two screens will not only increase the potential for more customers, but it will increase the likelihood for the theater to benefit from a higher percentage of ticket sales. The cut theaters owners receive for each ticket sale is based on a percentage - for instance 30 percent in the first week, 40 percent for the next 14 days, and so on. “We will make a higher margin of profit toward that sale” with added screens, said Chandler. According to Erin Perdu, Howell’s interim community development director, there would be little or no change visible from the outside of the building. Preliminary designs indicate stairs to the second floor would run off the lobby area, and the current elevator would be expanded. Plans also show where an upstairs concessions area could be located. A budget has not been set for the project, in part because Chandler is not certain whether one or two auditoriums would be created. “There is enough space to do one screen with 160 seats, or two screens with 80 seats,” said Chandler. “It will be somewhere between one-half and three-quarters of the cost of new construction - $200,000, possibly $300,000.” Chandler is ready to move forward with the project and Perdu is positive about the plan. “We want to see them be successful and stay in downtown,” she said. As with his other renovations, Chandler will take care to preserve some of the original details during construction, including clusters of seats and restroom signs dating to the 1940s, decorative medallions and a 1920s ticket grinder.

FANTASY OF LIGHTS FROM A1 Marshal's big job: sw itch ing on th e lights Mullaney, mother of six, moved to Howell in 1976 with her husband, Lawrence, through a job transfer. They bought the historically significant brown house at 1015 N. Michigan Ave., a home which long remained in the family though it now is for sale. While Mullaney has had many addresses since selling the family home to her son John, all of them have been inside the city and some of them were work related. “I’ve been at 718 S. Michigan Ave., 102 S. Michigan Ave., 222 W Clinton, 108 W. Grand River Ave., 107 E. Grand River Ave., 112 State St., 102 N. Michigan... they’re never getting rid of me,” she joked, adding that her newest address is on Walnut Street, south of the Grand River Avenue. Mullaney was selected to represent the city in it’s annual day-after-Thanksgiving parade because of her commitment to service organizations, charity work, community involvement and beautification efforts inside the city. “She is a wonderful ambassador for the community,” said Susan Lundin of the sponsoring Howell Area Chamber of Commerce. “Jackie has done a great amount of charitable work and is very involved in the community.” Whether she is helping with the Michigan Challenge Balloonfest, exhibiting family heirlooms at Howell History Days or touting the importmice of saving The Opera House, she embodies a spirit of preserving the past and believing in the future of Howell, said Lundin. For that, and more, she was selected by a decade’s worth of former grand marshals from a pool of eight candidates. But, with the honor comes some duties. According to Lundin, she will have to make parade award selections - best animal entries, best musical awards and the grand marshal float - but her highest duty is lighting the city’s official holiday tree. On Santa’s cue, she will flip the switch turning on the lights wrapped around the Howell holiday tree set up in fix)nt of the historic Livingston County Courthouse. “With my luck, I’ll knock out the (electrical) grid,” said Mullaney, whose business, Livingston Business Forms and Promotional Products, would SHOPPING FROM A1 Despite slump, most ow n ers expect sales to increase and restaurants will have special deals and sales. I think this will give us some real good presence in the community.” Howell downtown merchants kicked off their fiveweek holiday campaign last week, with plenty of family friendly activities scheduled, including the second annual Merry Tuba Christmas Concert at 2 p.m. Dec. 22 at the amphitheater, said Mindy Arnold, Main Street manager. Four new billboards advertise downtown shopping and a new Web site (shopdowntownhowell. com) features all of the Main Street retailers and restaurants, she said. The Fantasy of Lights Parade stepping off tonight at 7 p.m. is expected to draw 30,000 visitors to the downtown area. “A tot of people make it a tradition to do holiday shopping before the parade,” she said. “I’m hoping holiday sales will be equal to, if not better than, last year,” said Ron Daly, owner of the downtown Decorating Center and chairman of the Fowlerville Downtown Development Authority. “You’ve got to be a better, more creative selling person this year. We’re putting more and more focus on customer service and attention. We offer the smalltown shopping experience that our customers are looking for.” Fowlerville’s tree lighting ceremony Nov. 30 kicks off special events including late-night shopping that run until Christmas, Daly said. While local, independent retailers are hoping for the best, some of the area’s larger retailers are gearing up for a somewhat greener shopping season. Target, which hasn’t released a 2007 holiday sales forecast, heads into the season with a 9.7 percent sales increase for October, according to a recent news release. The Tanger Outlet Centers, one of which is in Howell Township, have jumped on strong Veterans Day weekend sales as a positive indicator for their holiday shopping season in total. At the Green Oak Village Place mall, optimism is running high. “The center’s been very strong since its open- 4ng,” said mall spokesman Sean Valentine. “Even with the economy being slower than usual, our sales continue to climb. Most of our stores will do very well.” Despite Michigan’s economic slump, in fact, more than half of store owners surveyed by the Michigan Retailer’s Association in September said they expect holiday sales to increase, with overall growth averaging 2.2 percent above last year. Andrews said she hopes area businesses will have a lucrative holiday shopping season but is somewhat pessimistic about that likelihood. “I don’t hear of people getting ready to go shopping the day after Thanksgiving this year. I don’t hear them talking about Christmas shopping, period.” R e a c h S t e p h e n ie K o e h n a t s a k o e h n @ c o m c a s t .n e t o r a t 8 1 0 - 2 9 9 - 5 2 8 3 . ^ r a n c f O ^ iu e r T ^ e n i a l Dr. Brad Rotideau (810) 225-TEETH (8338) 7 6 0 0 G r a n d R i v e r A v e . , S u i t e 2 9 5 , B r i g h t o n I n t h e L i v i n g s t o n C e n t r e , n e x t t o B .

Mullaney has served on various boards, including the American Red Cross, the marketing board for what was then McPherson Hospital and the Livingston County Child and Fhmily Services, and she remains on the board for the Women’s Resource Center. In addition, she tutored in the Howell Public Schools and served on a city commission to study historic preservation. As a result, “I can’t go anywhere anymore in this town without being recognized,” she said. Until recently, Mullaney said she was living under an impression of anonymity. All the congratulatory remarks she has received since hearing of her role as grand marshal has made her “more conscious you’d better comb your hair before you leave the house in the morning,” she said. It would be hard for Mullaney to say who is having the most fim with latest role, herself; her mother, a resident of Oakhaven assisted care home in Howell; or her friends, several of whom nominated her. For her part, she is relishing the idea of riding on the float with the grandchildren. She remains hopeful a 10th grandchild will be able to leave Fort Bragg, N.Y., to join the crew. “We’re stiU trying to get her home on leave” from the Anny, Mullaney said. The day promises to be long for her, beginning with the Mullaney family Thanksgiving at her house around 3 p.m. She’ll have two hours before having to report downtown for the parade, which begins at 7 p.m. and lasts about an hour. A private reception for family and friends will follow. Her biggest concern of the day? Staying warm.

Mike Rogers told a local audience earlier this week. Rogers, R-Brighton, spoke Monday to the Livingston Legislative League, a group sponsored by the Greater Brighton Area Chamber of Commerce. He talked about the economy, focusing his remarks primarily on energy consumption and the auto industry. The congressman said rising oil prices are “a drag on the economy” that are slowing retail sales because consumers are spending so much on gasoline. He said “off-the-charts” growth in China and a growing demand in India are squeezing supplies of oil throughout the world and driving up prices. Rogers said that demand makes further development of biodiesel, ethanol and fuelcell technology all the more important for the auto industry that is so important to the Michigan economy. The congressman, speaking to an audience that included one of his bothers (Bill Rogers) and his father (John Rogers), said increasing corporate average fuel economy (CAFE) standards is not the way to get domestic automakers to produce more fuel-efficient cars. CAFE standards, developed in 1975, mandate that an automakers’ fleet of vehicles for any given model year hit a certain miles-per-gallon average. Congress has been 'Government, one-size-fitsall mandates won't work.' U.S. Rep. Mike Rogers, R-Brighton considering raising the bar to force more fuel-efficient vehicles. • Rogers called the CAFE standards “a miserable failure” at reducing the consumption of foreign oil because it “punishes the auto companies for making what consumers want to buy.” He predicted that Chrysler Corp. would go out of business if CAFE standards are raised because so much of what Chrysler sells are trucks and large SUVs. He also said foreign automakers, who already have lots of small, fuel-efficient cars in their fleets, would be rewarded by being able to satisfy consumer demand for larger vehicles and still stay within CAFE standards. “Government, one-sizefits- all mandates won’t work,” Rogers said, asking the audience, “How many of you want a car designed by Congress?” Instead, Rogers advocates a government loan-guarantee program that would give automakers the capital needed to develop alternative-fuel vehicles. That approach, he said, would allow auto company engineers to find a way to improve fuel efficiency and still make the types of vehicles that consumers want to drive. “How we raise emission standards is the key to success,” Rogers said.

So, unwilling to dump them all in a recipe file box - “too overwhelming,” she said - she began looking for a better way to organize them. Finally, after modifying a purchased photo album with clear plastic sleeves - “That was my prototype, but it wasn’t perfect,” she said - Stumphauzer drew up a design for her own binder. From concept through the prototype process to patentpending status to securing a manufacturer for her Flip ‘n Pick binder, Stumphauzer started her business from the ground up, joining the ranks of the county’s entrepreneurs. The Michigan economy has negatively affected the business climate in southeast Michigan, including Livingston County, but entrepreneurism is alive here, said Dennis Whitney, director of the Livingston County Small Business and Technology Development Center. “We are one of the most entrepreneurial areas in the state,” said Whitney, who assisted 23 start-up businesses that created 80 new jobs in 2005 and 2006. Start-up businesses meet with success here, despite the wretched economy, he said. “I have clients (preparing to go into business) right now that are layoffs from Pfizer.” As often as not, entrepreneurial success is a measure of preparedness, Whitney said. In Stumphauzer’s case, there is a business background (she was an administrator for a local home health care business for several years) and she took her I d . ‘ 1 1 1 f i l l : HACKETED ( ) SHOWnMES FOR FRI t SAT ONLY $1 BEFORE 6m SUPERBAO (10;50) 1:20 3:45 7:20 9:45 R THE SIMPSONS MOVIE {11:0011:10 3i» 7:15 PG13 THE BRAVE ONE 4:50 9:00 R RATAT0UH.LE (10:20) I2;45 3:15 6:45 9:15G THE BOURNE ULTIMATUM = j)0.40n:00 3;30 7:00 9:30PGI3 3 S1.SO AHERGm SUN to THURS *1.75 FRI and SAT AFTER 6m ALL SHOWS T U E ^ ^ H e y w o o d B a n k r America's Favorite N e r d « '.^ ^ ^ ^ Returns for his Annual * Thanksgiving Weekend Shows,^ ^ N o vem b e r 's n t S S h o w t i m e s Wed. - 8pm K om ick ?o z e K o m e d y - 8 pm - A l l t ix $10 Thurs. - 8pm Fri. & Sat.- 8 & 10:30pm F r i . & S o t . 8 p m show s a r e n o n - sm o b in g Aflmnday Spidile 7 3 4 - 9 9 6 - 9 0 8 0 w w w .a a c om e d y .c om HOWELL TOWNSHIP BOARD SYNOPSIS November 12, 2007 The Novemher 12. 2(K)7 Howell Township regular meeting, held at the Township Hall. 3525 Byron Roiid vviis called to order by Supervisor Heikkincn at 7:00 PM.

Eaton Township Clerk JAMIE CHARBENEAU-PISELLA.THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS Entrepreneur Marie C. Stumphauzer is the creator of the Fiip 'n Pick, a hard-bound solution to keeping meal time recipes together. time to be sure she was ready to go forward. “It took a few years, from the concept to the production, actually,” she said, with stops in between dictated by her family responsibilities. She also did considerable research online, finding her manufacturer there and learning how to make a Web page where she can sell her product. The result of all her effort is a black plastic binder with a self closure that is fitted with two sets of rings, each holding clear plastic “sleeves,” into which the purchaser can insert and organize recipes, flash cards, c i^ supplies, fabric swatches... the list is limited only by the imagination, Stumphauzer said. Stumphauzer said entrepreneurs should be prepared for the inevitable obstacles. “Right out of the chute, it was an obstacle just to be taken seriously,” she said. Many manufacturers she contacted shied away when asked to sign a nondisclosure agreement, meaning that her invention was her intellectual property and they couldn’t pre-empt the idea. She also tussled with self-doubt and fear of failure. “I’d sit in fixfnt of the phone and say, Tm going to call this distributor. No, I’m not. Yes, I am.’” Still, Stumphauzer’s marketing efforts have resulted in modest sales and at least one retailer, VG’s grocery in Brighton, is carrying the binder. “It’s a great idea,” said store manager Steve Scheidler. “Her binder keeps everything nice and neat and organized. We display them in our ‘Meal Solutions’ area, where we offer two recipes every day, along with everything you need to make them. (Displaying the Flip ‘n Pick with Meal Solutions is) a perfect marriage.” Her product is also available through her Web site at www.liamari.com. Stumphauzer is by no means alone in her hunt for success as an entrepreneur. Dave Massey, owner of Exotic Sportz/Hell Survivors Paintball in Pinckney, has created an energy drink called Fireball that has made local inroads into the market for these popular bottled drinks. Massey and partner Ed Stapleton developed what they dubbed the Fireball Performance Cocktail by trial and error. “All of the other energy drinks out there just seemed to be copying the leader. Red Bull,” he said. “We wanted to offer a stand alone energy drink that kids can drink, as well as a mbcer.” For a flavor, they selected a mix of citrus and pineapple. The two took their idea to a local beverage manufacturer. Liquid Manufacturing of Green Oak Township. “We 5d a lot of taste-testing in their lab before coming up with the perfect combination,” Massey said. The inclusion of an herbal remedy, epimedium, that is considered by some to be an aphrodisiac, has created some notoriety for the drink. “It also provides energy and has medicinal uses,” Massey said. Sales have been brisk, he said, with “quite a few” stores and bars carrying the drink in Pinckney, Brighton, and Howell, Hamburg, Putnam and Unadilla townships and throughout the Detroit area. More information on the drink is available on Massey’s Web site at www.drinkfireball.com. The product of local entrepreneur Craig Asians originated in an assignment for a class he was taking - and in his cocker spaniel’s taste for pizza. “I decided to come up with something I could sell,” said Asians, who designs and manufactures sports training equipment when he’s not designing pizza bags.

In the face of what some call Michigan’s “one-state depression,” data assembled by the University of Michigan’s Center for Local, State and Urban Policy show some encouraging signs for small business creation and hint at possible job growth in the future. According to a recently released policy report, entrepreneurial activity may be encouraged by our state’s transitional economy. “Entrepreneurs bring new energy, ideas, technologies and processes that help convert startups into growing firms with additional job growth,” wrote Thomas Ivacko in “Michigan’s Economic TVansition: Toward a Knowledge Economy,” the report he authored. “... the new firms entering the Michigan marketplace not only point the way for additional entrepreneurs to join their ranks, but also hold the hope for significant future job growth.” S y n o p s i . s o f t h e U n a p p r o v e d M i n u t e s o f t h e G r e e n O a k C h a r t e r T o w n s h i p R e g u l a r B o a r d M e e t i n g N o v e m b e r 7 , 2 0 0 7 G r e e n O a k C h a r t e r T o w n s h i p H a l l The meeting wa.s called lo order by Clerk .Sedlak in the Green Oak Charter Township Hall at 7:00 p.m. Roll Call: Susan Daugherty, Tracey Edry.

Let me suggest that you stop whatever it is you are doing at this moment - even stop reading this column - and focus on something you are thankful for. Take as long as you need.... ni wait for you. Good health? Boy, that’s something to really give thanks for. A happy family life? That’s not something all of us will be ^ b le to put on our lists. ^ A stable work life? If your own job is not threatened at the moment, you probably know someone who is facing a job loss. Good friends? That’s some- ^thing we all need, and they Waecome more important than ever when other parts of our lives get a little out of whack. Safe travels? Many of will either be traveling this weekend or will have family come to us from across town or across several states. AAA predicts that 38.7 million Americans will travel 50 miles or more from home over the five-day weekend period that ends Sunday. We had family come in for Thanksgiving dinner from other parts of Michigan, Ohio (even the dreaded Columbus area), California and Maryland. I even think it’s OK to be ^thankful for what some might ®term a boring, normal life. Believe me, there are plenty of days that I’m thankful my life is nothing out of the ordinary. There are a few things I on my list of things I am thankful for that I hope I will never have to use. But knowing they are there, makes me all the more thankful. I I’m especially thankful this year for those men and women who decide to become firefighters. Frankly, I hope to never seem them at my house, but I’m glad they show up every time the call goes out. You think about these things more than ever when someone close to you has had a house fire. I’m thankful for the Gleaners Shared Harvest Pantry that provides emergency food to those among us who have fallen on hard times. This small facility operated by |0people with big hearts, provides an essential service to individuals and families who I are struggling to make ends meet. Again this is one of those services we hope we never r peed to use ... but I’m sure thankful for people like Director Julie Harris and her army of volunteers who do an incredible job of making sure no one goes hungry in this county. The need continues to grow and you can help by donating food, money or time to help stock the shelves. I’m thankful for the many faith communities here in Livingston County and throughout the region who reach out to others in so many ways. By now I’m sure you’ve thought of several more reasons to give thanks this Thanksgiving holiday weekend, ranging from the sub- ^m e to the ridiculous. " But all of this Thanksgiving talk has made me, well, hungry. How about we all pause and give thanks for leftover turkey. Is there anything bett e r on the day after Thanks- Pgiving than a turkey sandwich bathed in mayonnaise?

Above, he heads into the woods to his stand for a day of hunting.

As it was, Todd Martin, of Iosco Township, settled for cold temperatures, overcast skies and a little bit of a breeze - fairly good conditions - when he dressed at 5:30 a.m. Nov. 15, the opening day of firearm deer season. Unfortunately, no buck - trophy or otherwise - showed up that day or any other during what was possibly the most dismal opening weekend ever for the soft-spoken but avid 32- year-old hunter. The experience, although disappointing, hasn’t diminished Martin’s passion for the sport and the season he and thousands of Michigan hunters look forward to all year. To the truly devoted, opening day is kind of like Christmas, a birthday and a snow day off from school combined. “It’s all about patience and the anticipation of what you’re gonna see,’’ Martin said. “And it’s about loving the outdoors.” It’s also about sharing the prize with other hunters at local “buck poles,” like the one at Randy’s Service Station on the corner of Fowlerville and Mason Roads in Handy Township. Even though he came up empty-handed this year, Martin had to stop by and see others’ good fortune. “I come out in August and September and shoot video of the deer,” Martin said. “I’ll go to the buck pole and recognize some of the bucks that got killed.” Many sons and daughters follow a family tradition in becoming deer hunters. Martin is the first in his family to take up the sport. “It was all trial and error,” he said. “I hunt deer, turkey, rabbit. Everything you can hunt in Michigan, I hunt.” He’s also taught hunting to his 11- S E E DEER HUNT, 85 Safe hunting tips offered The state Department of Natural Resources reminds hunters to th in k safety first during the firearm deer season. ■ All hunters must wear "hunter orange" (hat, cap, vest, jacket or rain gear). It must be the outermost garment and be visible from all sides. ■ Hunters should treat every firearm as if it were loaded. ■ Hunters should be sure o f th e ir target and the area beyond it. ■ Keep your fin g e r o ff the trig g e r until you are ready to shoot. ■ Don't take any chances with a loaded firearm. ■ Know where your hunting partners are at all times and never assume you are alone in the woods. ■ It Is illegal to drink alcohol or use intoxicating drugs before or while hunting. ■ Hunters using tree stands or other raised platforms should wear a safety harness at all times. Hunters using raised platforms should use a haul line to bring gear and unloaded firearms to and from the platform.

Below, Bob Nation of Byron gets packed up and ready to head out on opening morning with Martin. Hunters like Martin and Nation will spend more time in the field than hunters in any other state or Canada and will collectively add $500 million to the state's economy. By the numbers ■ The Michigan firearm deer hunting season runs Nov. 15-30. ■ Michigan deer hunters will spend more than 10 million hunting days during archery, firearm and muzzle-loading seasons, more than hunters in any other state or Canadian province. ■ Deer hunters will contribute more than $500 million to the Michigan economy this year. ■ The most commonly hunted species in Michigan is deer with 90 percent o f hunting licenses purchased fo r deer hunting, w ith 62 o f deer hunters not purchasing any other type o f hunting license. ■ Of the Michigan population 16 years of age and older, 18 percent o f the males and 1.5 percent o f the females purchased a hunting license (2003-05). ■ The number o f people purchasing Michigan hunting licenses has decreased from an average o f 858,000 in the 1960s to an average o f 829,000 during 2003-05.

Roberts is one of 12 starters back for the Gladiators. BY JASON DEEGAN The L iv in g s to n C o m m u n ity Nevvs Opponents beware. That’s the message Livingston County’s six wrestling programs should send out in preparation for this season. Despite the graduation of two state champions and two all-staters, the Hartland Eagles are tough as ever. The Ea^es, ranked third in the state in Division I by the preseason coaches association poll, have been second in the state four years running. Fresh off a record season, the Howell Highlanders welcome back eight starters fix)m a team that shared the Kensington Valley Conference championship with Hartland, which had won the league outright five straight years. Fowlerville returns 12 starters (out of 14 weight classes) and 11 other varsity letterwinners, prompting coach Chris Tyie to say the program is ready to “take the next step.” And don’t forget Brighton, which has 11 starters back fi’om a rapidly improving program. Here’s a look at the upcoming season, which starts next week: B r i g h t o n B u l l d o g s Key wrestlers: Tory King (sr. 285), AUen Melick (sr. 130), Kenny Richmond (jr. 130-135), Grant Pizzo (jr. 112-119), Andy Raby (jr. 145-152). Comment: The Bulldogs progressed in co-head coach Sam Amine’s first season, winning 17 dual meets after a one-win season in 2005. Richmond, a state qualifier, and Pizza, a region^ qualifier, led the way. Amine said he hopes to qualify as many as five individuals for states. “Our program is growing,” Amine said. “You’ve got to crawl before you nm. We’ve made some big strides.” H a r t l a n d E a g l e s Key wrestlers: Jeremy Bommarito (sr. 145-152), Matt Bain (sr. 145-152), D.J. Chameski (sr. 285), Kyle Summerfield (jr. 171), Sean Hultberg (jr. 140). Comment: Bommarito (at 145 last year) and Bain (at 119 as a freshman) are returning state champs who will share the middle weight classes.

The mandated switch from the fall season to the winter with the boys is filled with question marks. Will there be enough officials to go around? Will the best officials only choose to ref boys games? Will the girls suffer from a lack of fan support and media coverage in the shadow of the boys? How will the layoff from the summer season affect play for the girls on the court? There are plenty of changes locally, too. Howell’s longtime coach Lee Piepho is gone, off to coach at University of Detroit-Mercy, handing the reigns to lYicia Clark, the junior varsity coach the past six years. With new coach Brian Ives at Hartland and secondyear coaches Paul Bristol at Pinckney and Erica Jackson at South Lyon, the Kensington Valley Conference is S E E GIRLS,C2 PHOTOS: LON HORWEDEL.THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS Whitmore Lake High School's Becca Renells, left, drives the hoop against teammate Erica Jackson during a practice last week.

(jlads, Eagles favorites in boys season BY JASON DEEGAN T h e L iv in g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s Last year, four of the seven area boys basketball teams had winning records, but only one - Fowlerville - won a district championship. Those Glaiators, along with the Hartland Eagles, look like the early favorites to have successful seasons on the court this year. Both programs are built around high-scoring guards. Fowlerville senior Sean Romsek, who will play at the Division 2 University of Massachusetts Lowell next fall, averaged 18 points per game last season. Hartland junior guard Vonn Jones, who is attracting Division I recruiting attention, led the Kensington Valley Conference in scoring at 16 ppg. Here’s a look at the upcoming season, which starts Dec. 4: S E E BOYS,C2 3 conferences alter schedules to deal with change of the girls season The down side: Fan base will be divided, says coach BY JASON DEEGAN T h e L iv in g s t o n C o m m u n i t y N e w s 'The Kensington Valley Conference, the Capital Area Activities Conference and the 'Irt-Coimty Conference all have different approaches to handling basketball schedules now that the girls and the boys will play in the same season this winter. The KVC will have boys and girls play at the same time but at opposite sites on Tfresdays and Fridays. “There are mbced emotions (about the schedule),” Brighton girls coach Jason Piepho said. “The bad thing a^ ut this is, you are splitting your fan base. The girls will rarely see a boys game and vice versa.” The CAAC will have the girls play before the boys games, starting at 6 p.m. 'IVesdays and Fridays. Critics of that schedule say the girls are relegated to a status similar to a junior varsity. Fowlerville girls basketball coach Curtiss Wright said the move shouldn’t hurt attendance for his team. “I think it (the schedule) is better than the alternative,” of playing on the same nights, he said. “We don’t feel we’ll have a drop-off in numbers of attendance. Parents are defeated to watching their kids.” The TCC’s schedule is the most creative. One week, the girls will play Mondays and Thursdays, with the boys on 'Riesdays and Fridays. The following week they will switch, which allows the two programs to share that coveted Friday night slot. The schedule allows Whitmore Lake coach Dave Arnold to coach both "frojan teams simultaneously. “In other leagues, it wouldn’t have worked,” Arnold said.

The South Lyon Lions finished in third place with 151 points, earning coach John Burch the Division I coachof- the-year honors. “This was, by far, the best state meet experience we’ve ever had,” Burch said. “We got a trophy. They (Lions team members) will not want to leave without one again.” Senior Shannon Moceri was second in the 100 breaststroke and helped the Lions to third in the 200 medley relay. Jenna Faletti, Chelsea Kemppainen and Paige Drazga helped the 200 freestyle (third) and 400 freestyle (seventh) relays to all-state showings. Faletti was seventh in the 50 freestyle, just ahead of Brighton’s Haley Johnson, and 13th in the 100 free. “It was incredible,” Moceri said. “We all worked really hard.” Brighton junior Marybeth Hall came home without a title, but still propelled the Bulldogs to their best showing ever: seventh place. She was second in the 200 individual medley and the 100 butterfly and helped the 400 S E E SWIMMING,C2 LEISATHOMPSON,THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS Marybeth Hall of Brighton High School and Ashley Cohagen of Pioneer High hug after finishing second and first in the 100- yard butterfly during the MHSAA Division 1 state swim meet Nov. 17 at Eastern Michigan University. C2 THE LIVINGSTON COMMUNITY NEWS FR ID A Y , N O V EM B E R 23, 2007 GIRLS FROM C l Bulldogs rebuild, reload in the midst of a transition. Even Brighton, the seventime defending KVC champs, is awash in newness. Gone are all five starters. Here’s a look at the upcoming season, which starts Monday; B r i g h t o n B u l l d o g s Key players: Genevive Sixby- Springs (sr. Guard), Brittany Lapham (sr. G), Morgan Albert (jr. Center), Jenna Chabot (sr. Forward), Natalie Bisaro (sr. F) Comment: Brighton coach Jason Piepho swears the Bulldogs (21-4) are not rebuilding but reloading. Many of last year’s backups got significant minutes after the Bulldog starters built up big leads. “These kids have been in the program a long time. They know what to expect,” Piepho said. “The transition should not be too bad.” H a r t l a n d E a g l e s Key players: Meredith Kussmaul ^r. F), Shelby Maggert (so. PG), Holly Erickson (so. F), Courtney Erickson (sr. F). Comment: The Eagles have their third coach in three years in Brian Ives, who coached at rival Lakeland from 1997-2004. Ives said he believes in “hardnosed defense, rebounding and to not turn the ball over. That’s what we’re trying to implement at Hartland.” H o w e l l H i g h l a n d e r s Key players; Charlie French (jr. G), ^ y sa Asher (jr. F), Courtney Woltman (sr. G), Jody Heinonen (sr. G). Comment: Like Brighton, the Highlanders (20-4) must regroup after losing major talent. Four sophomores and two freshmen make up a young team that Clark says will be in the running in the KVC. “I will not tear down what he (Piepho) created,” Clark said. “I will just add on to what he’s built.” P i n c k n e y P i r a t e s Key players: Elyse Lefevre (sr. P(j), Lauren Pitt (jr. G), Jenna Donnay (sr. SF), Jennifer Toplstra (sr. PF), Morgan Hughes (sr. C). Comment: The Pirates (5- 15) should benefit fi’om a full offseason working within Bristol’s system. Hughes, a Saginaw Valley State University recruit, will be a force. “We did some work on basic skills and fundamentals,” Bristol said. “That’s what troubled us, getting the ball across halfcourt against the pressure.” S o u t h L y o n L i o n s Key players: Danielle Gotham (jr. F), Amanda Thomas (jr. F), Katie Williams (sr. G), Kim (sr. G). Comment: The Lions (3- 18) lost a ton of close games, mainly due to turnovers. Jackson said the addition of new players should help address that issue. Eight total players, including all five starters, are back. “We want to find a way to win a championship, whether that is a tournament or league or district championship,” Jackson said. F o w l e r v i l l e G l a d i a t o r s Key players: Amanda Ackerman (jr. G), Nika Kusmierr (jr. G-F), Samantha VanGilder (jr. G-F), Savannah McFarlin (sr. F), Lexi Bigos (jr. F). Comment: The Gladiators (1-19) worked hard in the offseason to improve under second-year coach Curtiss Wright. Fowlerville will still “run-and-gun” despite its strength in the post. “We are getting strong down low and at the wing,” Wright said. “We’ll be able to work (the ball on offense) in and out.” W h i t m o r e L a k e T r o j a n s Key players; Becca Renells (sr. G), Erica Jackson (jr. G), Jessica Cattley (sr. G). Comment: The 'IVojans (2-19, 1-13 in the Tri-County Conference) are still a work in progress, according to coach Dave Arnold. He said the team won more games over the summer. “The only thing we focus on every day is to make sure we come to practice, work hard and leave a little better than when we got there,” he said. “Eventually that leads to some wins.” BOYS FROM C l Eagles' focus: heart, passion B r i g h t o n B u l l d o g s Key players; Jackson Armstrong (so. Guard), Bryan Bollin (so. G), Kyle Bollin (sr. Forward). Comment: The Bulldogs (5- 17) have seven players back, including four with starting experience. They should be better equipped to win games. Brighton’s offense only averaged 44 points per game last season, a trend coach Mike Griest said must improve. With the Bollin brothers - Kyle is 6-foot-7 and Bryan 6- 6 - and 6-4 junior Ben Estey, the Bulldogs have some size. “Last year was rough for everybody,” Griest said. “This year, everybody’s got experience. You can’t trade that for anything.” H a r t l a n d E a g l e s Key players; Travis Lindahl (sr. G), Vonn Jones (jr. G), Jon Stevens (jr. F), Chris Cagle (jr.G). Comment: The Eagles (12-9) were the surprise of the KVC last year, finishing in a tie for second with Lakeland. The addition of Cagle and the return of Lindahl from injury gives coach Frank Leppek other scoring options besides Jones. He said improved defense is key. “I want our players to be in condition and play with heart and passion,” Leppek said. H o w e l l H i g h l a n d e r s Key players: Shane Nolan (sr. G), Mike St. Pierre (sr. G), Nick Chiodo (sr. G), Kyle Garra (jr. G-F). Comment; The Highlanders (7-14 in coach Creighton Burn’s first year) lost five seniors, but are a “little bigger, a little stronger” this year, according to Burns. “We want continual progress,” he said. “My goal is that they play as hard as they can play.” P i n c k n e y P i r a t e s Key players: Sean McEachern (sr. (i), Eric Braun (sr. G), Jimmy LeFebvre (sr. F), Noah Pelto (sr. F-C). Comment: The Pirates (10-10) were inconsistent in Tom Reason’s first year. McEachern’s recovery from SWIMMING FROM Cl Teams make solid showings at states freestyle relay to third in a school record time. Ann Arbor Pioneer’s Ashley Cohagen edged out Hall in the fly by .02 seconds. “I was a little sick this weekend,” Hall said. “It wasn’t the best meet of my life, but it wasn’t the worst.” Howell’s Lauren Dorsey garnered two all-state honors, for a sbcth-place finish in the 100 breaststroke and by helping her 200 medley relay place eighth. Howell was 18th as a team. Hartland’s big three - Heather Saule, Renee Kantola and Alex Mileto - landed the Eagles in 27th place. The trio, along with Joy Orvis, were 16th in the 200 medley relay. Saule and Kantola (also 12th in the fly) were 14th and 15, respectively, in the 100 backstroke. Mileto was 14th in the 50 free and 12th in the 100 free.

WRESTLING FROM C l Hartland motto is 'Better every day' and Spencer Hellner (112) were regional qualifiers last spring. “Our motto is ‘Better every day,”’ coach Todd Cheney said. “The young kids have to do that for us to be competitive at the state level. We have to make up for those kids we lost.” H o w e l l H i g h l a n d e r s Key wrestlers: Mike Cushing (jr. 140), Jason Leavans (sr. 135), 'tovis Rice (so. 103), Chris Janes (sr. 171), Ryan Root (sr. 189). Comment; Cushing (fifth at 125) and Root are returning state qualifiers. Coach Joe Adam said this group can match last year’s school-record of seven state qualifiers. The Highlanders have a new wrestling room at Parker High School to train in. “Last year, we set the bar high,” Adam said. “We are going to try to reach it every year. We have some holes, but guys need to step up.” P i n c k n e y P i r a t e s Key wrestlers: Justin Davis (sr. 152), Ityan McAuliffe (jr. 160- 171), Adam Mills (jr. 125-130), Ryan Erps (so. 145), Scott Hasseld (so. 135), Wesley Broughton (so. 112). Comment: The Pirates are low on numbers with less than 30 athletes, but coach Don Welch said it’s the most physically gifted bunch he’s had. He’s moved the program’s practices back to Navigator School to be closer to the youth program, the lifeblood of Pinckney’s future. “I still have holes in my lineup,” he said. “I have not set my hopes too high, but I expect all my kids to shoot for above a .500 record.” S o u t h L y o n L i o n s Key wrestlers: Shay Butler (sr. 145), Chris Emery (sr. 160- 171), Chris Groth (sr. 285), Zack Schaeffer (sr. 135). Comment; New coach Brian Wilson, who worked with the middle school program for several years, is the third varsity coach in three years in South Lyon. His numbers are low, around 30 athletes, because of the birth of South Lyon East’s JV team, led by coach Fred Vera. Butler is a returning regional qualifier. “I’m hoping we can see some immediate success,” Wilson said. “One reason I took the job is the kids would do well at the middle school, and they were average in high school. We have a lot of potential to be good, average or great. It depends on how hard they want to work.” F o w l e r v i l l e G l a d i a t o r s Key wrestlers: Patrick Roberts (sr. 130-135), Dillon Kem (jr. 171), Anthony Lee (jr. 119), Brett Kingsley (jr. 189). Comment; Three of FowlerviUe’s five state qualifiers are back, including Roberts, who was fourth in the state. Kingsley was a state qualifier as a fi’eshman. The Gladiators (24- 6) were district champs and second in the Capital Area Activities Conference’s division III a year ago but want more this winter. They are enjoying their new wrestling room in the district’s new gym. “We want some state medals,” Tyie said. “We want to be one of the best teams in our division. We want to compete with anyone.” RECREATION CALENDAR EVENTS ■ Women's-only volleyball - Drop-ins are welcome for non-competitive, non-league play at 7 p.m. Tuesdays at Lakeland Elementary in Pinckney.

We are working hard.” S o u t h L y o n L i o n s Key players; Eric Wedesl^ (jr. C), Zach Short (sr. G), Jordan Short (so. G). Comment: After winning a KVC championship, the Lions (14-7) must rebuild their lineup somewhat. Coach Daren Clayton likes his depth, and has his tallest team in his 13 years in South Lyon. “We are going to be competitive,” Clayton said. “How successful we are depends on teamwork and chemistry.” F o w l e r v i l l e G l a d i a t o r s Key players: Garrett St. Charles (sr. G), Joe Lane (sr. F), Sean Romsek (sr. G), Ryan Ross (sr. G), W^att Huggett (sr. F). Comment: The Gladiators (14-8) were a disappointing fifth (out of six teams) in their division of the Capital Area Activities Conference. With five returning starters, the Gladiators are aiming high. Coach Fred Hackett said breaking the school record of 19 wins is within reach. “All of our expectations are to compete for a league and district championship,” Hackett said. W h i t m o r e L a k e T r o j a n s Key players: Pat Kerrigan (sr. G), Ryan Foster (jr. G), Colton Judge (so. G). Comment: The Trojans (12- 9, 7-7 for fifth place in the Tri- County Conference) lost eight seniors, leaving an inexperienced group for Second-year coach Dave Arnold to mold. He believes, by the end of the season, they’ll be a threat. “We really are starting over in so many ways,” Arnold said. “Making sure everybody is on the same page is a big thing early on for a younger team.” Jason Deegan can be reached at jdeegan@ iivingstoncommunitynews.com or at 810-844-2012.
