Kohl’s to donate $63,841 to St. Mary’s Children’s Services  search
for Helmet and Car Seat Safety

As part of our ongoing commitment to keep kids safe, St. Mary’s Children’s Services and Kohl’s are once again teaming up to sponsor “Celebrate Safety with the Evansville Otters” on Friday, August 12 at Bosse Field.  The Otters will host the Southern Illinois Miners at 6:35 p.m.

Ticket vouchers are now available.  You can pick-up ticket vouchers to the Otters game, courtesy of St. Mary’s and Kohl’s, at St. Mary’s Center for Children or at Kohl’s locations in Evansville.  The vouchers should be redeemed at Bosse Field for a FREE game ticket.  Tickets are subject to availability.  The first 500 kids through the gates, age 12 and under, will receive a free bike helmet.  The Evansville Bicycle Club will fit the helmets for the kids.

There will be excitement throughout the evening, as St. Mary’s LifeFlight helicopter will land in the outfield at Bosse Field to deliver the baseball for the ceremonial first pitch.  And make sure you stay for a special fireworks display after the game.

As the lead agency for SAFE KIDS Vanderburgh and Warrick County, and the areas only Trauma Center verified in Pediatrics, St. Mary’s is committed to the safety of children in the Tri-State area.

For the past eleven years, Kohl’s has partnered with St. Mary’s to develop a program to Keep Kids Safe.  “Celebrate Safety with the Evansville Otters” is a safety event and the kickoff for this year’s program.

Kohl’s will present St. Mary’s with a check for $63,841 during the seventh-inning stretch of the Otters game.

“St. Mary’s has been able to carry out our Mission through trusted partnerships like the Kohl’s & St. Mary’s Keep Kids Safe Program.  We are grateful to Kohl’s for their support as we educate thousands of children in our community on leading safe lives,” said Rick Peltier, Director of St. Mary’s Health Foundation.

Since 2006, Kohl’s has donated more than $768,000 to St. Mary’s Children’s Services. Kohl’s commitment to St. Mary’s Children’s Services is made possible through the Kohl’s Cares® cause merchandise program. Through this initiative, Kohl’s sells $5 books and plush toys, where 100 percent of net profit benefits children’s health initiatives nationwide, including hospital partnerships like this one. Kohl’s has raised more $300 million through this merchandise program. Through the Kohl’s Associates in Action volunteer program, more than 1,100,000  associates have donated more than 3.7 million hours of their time since 2001, and Kohl’s has donated more than $112 million to youth-focused nonprofit organizations. For more information, visit www.Kohls.com/Cares.

IS IT TRUE that our “INDY MOLES” were spot on when they told us that Lt. Governor Eric Holcomb would win the political caucus as the person to represent the Republican party for Governor?  … our “INDY MOLES” now tell us that there is a strong  movement a foot to convince State Auditor Suzanne Crouch to run for Lt. Governor?  …our “INDY MOLES” also tell us if she decides to run for this position it’s her for the asking?

IS IT TRUE if you were the Chairman of the Board of a multi million dollar Corporation would you consider hiring a member of the Evansville City Council to a top management position in your Corporation?  If so, who would you hire?

IS IT TRUE we wonder if you would hire Lloyd Winnecke, Steve Schaefer, Alan Mounts, Russ Lloyd Jr, or Kelly Coures to be the CEO of your multi mullion dollar Corporation?  Is so, who would you hire?

IS IT TRUE on April 21, 2016 a special fundraising event was held for four (4) current Vanderburgh County school board members at the Kennel Club of Evansville?  …a Brian Hancock of One Main Street P O Box 968,  Evansville put on the fundraiser event invitation “please make your checks out to: CHRIS KIEFER,  MIKE DUCKWORTH, RANCE OSSENBERRG, ANS ANDY GUARINO”? …Mr Hancock also stated on his invitation “your gift will secure this endeavor for future school board campaign of these respective candidates”?  …we wonder why Mr. Hancock didn’t invite the other members of the school board who are currently running for re-election?  …we wonder what business or organization is located at ONE MAIN STREET, Evansville  that sponsored this fundraiser?

IS IT TRUE City Controller Russ Lloyd, Jr recently stated that the city has many millions of dollars in the city  bank account as of June 30, 2016.?   … if  the City has that level of funds in our bank account why is it that City Council Finance Chairman Dan McGinn (acting as the surrogate for Mayor Winnecke) is asking for a reduction in the Homestead Tax Credit of nearly 25%?

IS IT TRUE according to a former member of City Council the changes in the City of Evansville operational funds over the last several years clearly point that we are currently experiencing a deficit spending spree around $800,000 to a $1 million dollar per month?  …if this information is correct we wonder why the only CPA on City Council Anne Hargis hasn’t contacted the State about this major cash flow problems? …if the City accounts are not in balanced we wonder why in the heck hasn’t City Council Finance Chairman Dan McGinn hasn’t asked  the SBOA do something about?

IS IT TRUE so far this year the City has transferred $12. 5 million dollars from the Riverboat Funds ?  …the Hospitalization  account was negative by $4 million dollars on June 30, 2015 and now is $7.5 million dollars in the red?

IS IT TRUE if the Vanderburgh County Council would had heeded the advice of former County Commissioner David Mosby that we should build a larger County jail County we wouldn’t be having the jail overcrowding issues facing us now?

FOOTNOTE: “IS IT TRUE” will be posted on this coming Friday?

Todays READERS POLL question is: Do you feel that the 22 member Committee will go along with Governor Pence replacement advice by selecting Lt. Governor Eric Holcomb?

Vanderburgh Confinement Officer Receives Award From Indiana Sheriffs’ Association

0

Sheriff Dave Wedding, Chief Deputy John Strange and Confinement Sergeant Dave Guetling attended the 86th annual Indiana Sheriffs’ Association (ISA) Training Conference in Indianapolis this past weekend.

Confinement Sergeant Dave Guetling received the ISA’s Correctional Officer of the Year Award. Sergeant Guetling was nominated for this award by his supervisors and peers at the Vanderburgh County Jail. The award was presented to Sgt. Guetling by Vanderburgh County Sheriff Dave Wedding and Wayne County Sheriff Jeff Cappa, current ISA president.

Sheriff Wedding was elected by the ISA Board of Directors to serve as the 2nd Vice President for 2017 and Chief Strange was re-appointed to the Board by ISA President Sheriff Jeff Cappa.

This year’s featured speakers were John Thompson, Executive Director of the National Sheriffs’ Association, Col. Danny McKnight, US Army (ret.), who spoke on leadership and of the United States’ mission in Task Force Ranger (commonly known as the Black Hawk Down) mission, and Phil Chalmers, a leading researcher and expert on teen killers and how society teaches our kids to kill.

A special table was left vacant, except for vases and a single, brown campaign hat, which was set to honor all Indiana sheriffs and deputy sheriffs that have died in the line of duty since the inception of our state. A member of the ISA Honor Guard placed a rose on one of several vases on the table as the names of those sheriffs and deputies were called. The names included that of Vanderburgh County Special Deputy William Engle, who was killed while transporting a prisoner to stand trial in 1919.

Bucshon Statement On Holcomb

Bucshon Statement On Holcomb

“Our party had a strong group of Hoosier leaders ready to take over for Governor Mike Pence and I thank them all for their willingness to serve Indiana. Congratulations to my friend Eric Holcomb on becoming our Republican nominee for governor,” said Bucshon. “Voters have a clear choice in November. As Speaker, John Gregg turned a budget surplus into a budget deficit and increased taxes on families. Eric Holcomb answered the call to serve Indiana by helping Governors Daniels and Pence turn the state around.

I’m ready to get to work to help Eric win so we can build on the conservative leadership of the past 12 years to cut taxes, grow our economy, and expand opportunity for every Hoosier!”
