EVSC Bus Driver Receives November Cause for Applause Award

0

Evansville Vanderburgh School Bus Driver Jamie Moxley is the November recipient of the EVSC’s Cause for Applause award. The award seeks to recognize individuals who go above and beyond their normal job responsibilities.

Moxley, a bus driver for Cedar Hall Community School, was nominated by fellow bus driver Debra Hayden. In her nomination letter, Hayden wrote, “Jamie gives from her heart and soul, showing her concern and love for her students.”

According to Hayden, Moxley saw one of her students in need of new, better fitting school clothes at the beginning of the school year. Hayden says Moxley took it upon herself to purchase new clothing for the student, purchasing six new tops and six pairs of pants. “The family was so grateful and the student is now happy to have clothes that fit,” wrote Hayden.

Anyone can nominate an employee of the EVSC for the award. Deadline for nominations is the third Friday of each month. To nominate an EVSC employee, go to www.evscschools.com and click on About Us and see Cause for Applause under Community. Paper forms are available at the schools for those without access to the Internet.

State-of-the-art sensory playground coming to St. Vincent Evansville

0

Generous gift made by Bill & Mary Stone

St. Vincent announced plans to build a state-of-the-art, indoor therapeutic sensory playground for young patients who are cared for at St. Vincent Center for Children in Evansville. The playground will help provide sensory stimulation and cognitive development for children who struggle with a variety of conditions such as Sensory Processing Disorder (SPD).

The playground was made possible due to a generous donation by Bill and Mary (O’Daniel) Stone. They are natives of Evansville and are 1973 graduates of Memorial High School. Bill is CEO of Connecticut based, SS&C Technologies, which also has a large Evansville office. The playground will be named in honor of Bill’s mom, Patricia Browning Stone, who is also a graduate of Memorial High School and of the St. Mary’s School of Nursing.

“My mom, Patricia Browning Stone, was the embodiment of a strong successful woman.  She cared deeply for children and was taken from us at a young age, said Bill. “We are certain, she is watching from above and she would be very proud to be associated with the fine people who will make this fabulous facility a reality.”

The St. Vincent Center for Children is a comprehensive outpatient facility that was created to address the unmet healthcare needs of the region’s children. Services include pediatric behavioral health, pediatric subspecialty clinic, a resource center and the Tri-State’s only behavior-based, intensive feeding therapy program.

Dan Parod, President, Southwest Indiana Region, St. Vincent Evansville, said “We are extremely grateful to Bill and Mary Stone. Their gift makes this playground possible, which will meet specific therapeutic, educational and recreational needs of young patients.”

A groundbreaking ceremony will be held for the indoor sensory playground on December 19.

 

FORD CENTER CLAIMS 6TH TOP STOP IN THE WORLD

2

 

“Venues Today” reported Ford Center as sixth top stop in the world for medium capacity venues. This means all reported numbers by medium venues (10,001 – 15,000 capacity) in the world were turned in and Evansville, IN’s own Ford Center came in number six behind MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas who claimed the number one spot.

This report was pulled between August 16 and September 15. During that time, Ford Center hosted Alan Jackson and Kid Rock bringing almost 15,000 patrons to downtown Evansville. Not only did Evansville claim the number six spot, but also claimed the 8th and 10th spot for gross sales in the medium capacity venues category.

“Ford Center continues to receive support from our tri-state area and claiming a spot in the top 10 is a great accomplishment for the city of Evansville, VenuWorks and Ford Center,” stated Executive Director, Scott Schoenike. “Being recognized on three different accomplishments in the same month is quite the achievement, and knowing we were only 5 spots behind MGM in Las Vegas really shows this community and this industry Ford Center is a venue to be recognized.”

Supreme Court splits 3-2, denies transfer in custody case

IL for www.theindianalawyer.com

A mother’s appeal arguing that she was wrongly denied an evidentiary hearing on her petition to modify custody of her daughter was rejected last week by a divided Indiana Supreme Court.

Justices denied transfer in Jennifer Sanders v. Bryan Sanders, 42A01-1606-DR-1340. The Indiana Court of Appeals affirmed a trial court decision denying Jennifer Sanders’ petition in a memorandum decision in May, but she unsuccessfully sought to appeal to the Indiana Supreme Court.

Jennifer Sanders argued in her appeal that she was denied due process when the Knox Superior Court denied her motion without a full evidentiary hearing. She also argued the trial court erred by concluding that she had not established a substantial change of circumstances that warranted modifying parenting time for her daughter from joint custody to an award to her of primary custody.

The Court of Appeals affirmed the denial of mother’s motion, holding that she waived any objection to a lack of a hearing when she didn’t object to the trial court’s summary procedure. The COA also found the trial court’s decision was based on sufficient evidence.

Justices denied Jennifer Sanders’ transfer petition on a 3-2 vote. Chief Justice Loretta Rush joined a written dissent by Justice Steven David, who wrote that he would grant transfer to remand to the trial court so the parties could either stipulate to a summary proceeding or have a contested hearing.

U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions meets with 10 Point leaders and visits MLK/RFK sculpture during Indy stop

0

U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions met Monday with members of the Indianapolis Ten Point Coalition (ITPC), a proven model for reducing urban youth gun violence in neighborhoods. The meeting followed conversations in recent months between Gen. Sessions and Attorney General Curtis Hill, who has partnered with the ITPC in efforts to spread the model to communities statewide.

Gen. Sessions also joined Gen. Hill and ITPC members on a brief walk around the neighborhood surrounding Barnes United Methodist Church, which was the site of the afternoon meeting. The church is pastored by local ITPC leader Rev. Charles Harrison.

The meeting also was attended by, among others, Rev. Eugene Rivers of Boston, director of the National TenPoint Training Institute.

Prior to the ITPC meeting, Gen. Sessions and Gen. Hill dined at Kountry Kitchen Soul Food Place in Indianapolis and then together visited the Landmark for Peace memorial sculpture honoring Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and Robert F. Kennedy. The sculpture features King and Kennedy reaching out to one another. It is located near the site of a speech by Kennedy on April 4, 1968, in which he informed a crowd that he had just learned of the assassination of Dr. King and in which he urged racial reconciliation.

Attached are several photos from today’s visit by Gen. Sessions.
