Combining cable talks continue" BY ANDREAM.BEAUOOIN Clarkston News Staff Writer

Officials continue to push a public access television consolidation plan, but others are pushing back.

Independence Township Supervisor Pat Kittle, who presented the plan to the town­ship board as well as Clarkston Board ofEdu­cation, said moving the Independence TV public access program to Clarkston High School would be a win-win fot both.

"It would be an equipment windfall for students," said Kittle, adding that having the equipment at the higb school would serve to better train students.

Rob Namowicz, member of the Indepen­dence TV citizens advisory committee, said the plan is a bad idea - similar partnerships between commWlities and schools have not gone well.

"All members of the current cable com­mittee have cautioned against the rush to

merge," said Namowicz at the JWle 24 school board meeting. "As a committee we do not support moving the PEG studio to the schools."

Committee member Jay A. Clark said Inde­pendence TV was once the worst public ac­cess in the country. Althougb he feels pro­gramming has improved, he fears being "hor­rified" again ifmoving the equipment to the school causes a backslide in progress.

Clark said he also fears getting kids into the studio may be a problem.

Stacy Maegber, committee member, said rather than closing the studio, the CHS stu­dents should just have classes at the Maybee Road location.

Independence TV Program Manager Jo­seph Barnhardt, who presented an update to the township board along with Township Budget Analyst Rick Yaeger, said closing the Maybee Road studio would save the town-

Teen artists develop skills BYWENDI REARDON Clarks/on News Staff Writer

The art room at Clarkston Junior High School was quiet on June 19 as the creativity soared during Teen Art Camp.

The annual camp kicked off on Monday as campers, entering sixth through 12th grade, created their alternative sketchbook made out of discarded library books.

The books, once used to educate, were recycled inlo a place for new ideas, drawings and cartoons.

"I couldn't gel them out of it," said Claudia Keglovitz, art teacher at the junior high. "We didn't do anything else for the rest of the day. I showed them charcoal and how to do it. Then, they went right back to their sketch­books."

Hannah Hop used the center of the book to host her artwork made out of antique but­tons, glass and other findings. Lexi Traynor turned her sketchbook into a place to draw her cartoons.

"They gessoed (a white paint mixture) the pages so they could draw on them," Keglovitz explained. "The pages are put together with the wax paper then they can peel them out and draw on the pages."

Other campers cut out sections of the book to create secret compartments.

The campers also created with one of the favorite camp activities - screenprinting. They put their designs not only on paper but can­vas bags and T-shirts.

They worked with charcoal, paints, col­ored pencils and encaustic wax. They also learned more about the media they were us­ing.

Keglovitz explained encaustic wax was used by Vikings to protect the hulls and deco­rations on their ships. It can also be blended with India ink. When mixed with beeswax it becomes smooth and fluid. This year she brought in the heat gun for campers to use.

"The things that are popular are things we can't do during the school year," she added. "I understand that. Also, they are so intense,tl

Some of the campers used discarded dry wall as the canvas for their creation. They used it for low relief carvings of their draw­ings and designs into the pieces. A few used watercolor to make the layers and texture pop more.

"It was based on an idea my niece (Nicole) had," Keglovitz said. "It was just word of mouth. People said that's cool I want to do that, too."

Keglovitz was helped by Bailey Smith, a former student and now an art teacher for Clarkslon Community Schools at Indepen­dence Elementary and the Early Childhood Cenler.

The fun continued this week as Smith held lhe second session at Independence Elemen­tary. The camps ended on Thursday with a Gala Art Opening where friends and family viewed all the projects the campers worked on during the week.

Both Teen Art Camps are offered through Clarkston Community Education. For more information about this camp and other sum­mer camps, please visit www.c1arkston.k12.mi.us!cecorca1l248-623-4326.

Wendi's Word A column by Wendi Reardon

Road needs attention Summer has arrived, bringing hot

weather and later sunsets. It also means more people are taking

advantage of the sunshine while they can especially by walking and bicycling.

You know what it means - time for a reminder about driving. I know, I know there are places to go and you need to get there but please pay attention to the pedestrains crossing the street and cycling on the roads - especially the back roads.

Plus, more people are strolling through downtown Clarkston for Concerts in the Park, the restaurants and businesses - let's not scare them away from the charming downtown by wanting to run them over as soon as the traffic light turns green.

I will say one more time - please, pay attention to the pedestrians. Not your cell phone.

I point my finger at the cell phone because it has become a distraction for many. There are too many things going on with it - texts, internet, games, phone calls, and all the other fun applications we all have. But let's take a moment to put the phone away while driving. If it is really important to send a text message, please pullover.

In addition there is the road construction on Dixie Highway, please slow down and watch your speed. People are working on the road.

I know some of you don't need a reminder and I appreciate you being a attentive and respectful driver. My reason I have seen too many near accidents in the last few weeks even though the road conditions are clear. It's the little things that turn into big costs.

We will all get there. What is the rush? Let's enjoy this weather while it lasts. Before you know it will be winter.

Since it is summer it means we are.less than two months away from the fifth annual Football for a Cure - where the Wolves on the varsity football team don

Opt~~O~~Ed~~ Thanks for community support at Quatro Dear Editor,

The Clarkston Cooperative Preschool held a silent auction on May 4 at the Clark­ston Flower Shoppe & Birdfeeder during the Quatro de Mayo event.

We were overwhelmed with the support from 49 local businesses and artisans, who donated more than $6,500 worth of products and services to our event.

Our Silent Auction was held to raise money for the Clarkston Cooperative Preschool- the only preschool in the Village of Clarkston -which has been nurturing happy souls since 1969.

We could not continue to flourish with­out the support of this wonderful commu­nity, and we are grateful beyond measure to all thos'e who donated, bid, and browsed. And we need to send a special thank you to Steve at the Clarkston Flower Shoppe and Birdfeeder who not only developed the Quatro De Mayo event but who graciously provided us with a stunning venue for our auction. With all of your generosity, our event . was a huge success' Thank you, thank you, thank you Clarkston businesses and patrons!

A call to preserve current public access Dear Editor,

The Clarkston Cable Public Access channel is about to be given to the high school by the township board at the contrivance of the new supervisor.

After much hard work, the cable committee has succeeded in hiring a capable new coordinator/program director, replacing equipment with state of the art, and connecting to AT&T U-verse where you can watch board meetings

But just as public access TV is ready to take off again, producing community service and quirky local programming, where anyone can have their own TV show, the board wants the children to have the equipment, to move everything out of the studio building on Maybee Road into the high school against the unanimous opinion

. of all five cable committee members. Ten years ago, the school took the

education channel and hasn't produced one acceptable broadcast of a school board meeting. And now this great insatiable sucking maw is going to receive the government and community access channels as well.

I am broken hearted. The people paying cable bills should have something to say about this. It reminds me of the way we got a new township hall. The board doesn't seem to care what tax payers or cable bill payers think of their plan. People need to call the supervisor and come to the board meetings before it is too late.

Sincerely, Nancy Stephenson

Independence Township

'Pedaling' error no piddling matter to reader Dear Editor,

Upon reading the headline "Peddling deputy" in the June 19 Clarkston News, I was shocked.

So I got my dictionary out and checked the definition of the word "peddling." One is "small, trifling, piddling." I do not feel that the job the officer will be doing to be small, trifling, or piddling.

I think a better spelling choice would

have been "pedaling," alternate spelling, "pedalling." Dictionary definition, "of or pertaining to a pedal, perhaps a bicycle, to move or operate by moving pedals."

Maybe I'm just too picky to have noticed this. No offense to the author because without looking it up I would have thought peddling was to sell stuff.

A Look Back From The CNews archives

15 years ago - 1998 "Schools consider $250,000

Walters Road paving plan" The Clark­ston Community Schools Board ofEdu­cation and administration discussed paving Walters Road from Flemings Lake to Waldon roads and using it for bus traffic. The cost would have been $250,000 and would be incorporated into an intergovernmental agreement be­tween the district and Independence Township.

"Budding writers share stories, po­ems" North Sashabaw Elementary fifth graders sampled what it was like to be a published writer as they threw a "pub­lishing party." They read their creative works to friends and family then enjoyed cake and conversation.

"Local bicyclist goes coast-to-coast the hard way" Sixty-six-year-old Ken Peterson took his pre-retirement hobby into a full-time activity as he completed a two-week bike ride from Fort Walton Beach, Fla. to Windsor.

25 years ago - 1988 "Fuel spill could contaminate wells"

Flemings Lake Road residents were wor­ried after discovering 1,500 gallons of jet fuel from Enmanco of Mount Clemens spilled into the ground from a tipped fuel tanker offl-75 the previous week. Con­cerns grew when told officials wouldn't be out to inspect the area for another week.

"Voter turnout believed to be all-time high" A record 7,028 voters, out of 15,000 registered voters cast ballots in the Clarkston school election. By almost a two-to-one margin they approved the operational millage increase and a $5.2 million bond issue for school repairs.

"Students protest high school gradu­ation policy" A small but vocal group attending the Clarkston Community Schools board of education meeting made it clear they were not happy with the graduation policy regarding required credits. Some were not able to walk at commencement because they were one or half a credit shy of graduating. School Board President Janet Thomas explained it was not a new policy and the hand­book was clear on the matter.

50 years ago - 1963 "Local youth wins honors, goes to

Sarnia" Richard Lord of Clarkston was the winner of the regional contest for the best Boy Preacher of the Year. He went to Sarnia to compete for the state title and placed fourth.

Riparian Issues: Have quickly learned that arguments between Homeowner Associations regarding who can / can't put boats on a lake is a fight I want to avoid in the future at all costs. No matter what you do to try to solve the issue, someone will not be happy. This was an expensive lesson to learn.

Being new to the office, your township team quickly found there is no shortage of opportunities in our township. Our mission is pretty simple, to provide the "best services" at the "lowest cost possible" to enable current and future residents to want to live, work and play in our community. We've come a long way in six short months. We also realize we have a long way to go. With your help and continued support ... it should be an interestingjourney.

Ve old outhouse and more Editor's Note: Don Rush is on vacation this week,

so we plucked this gem out of the archives. It wasfirst published on June 25, 2003. Enjoy.

My Aunt Janice Pearl Housekeeper e-mailed me a cute little story the other day. I may have heard it before, and so too may have you. That said, it's still cute and will make you smile.

* * * The Outhouse Once there was a little boy who lived in the coun­

try. They had to use an outhouse, and the little boy hated

it because it was hot in the summer, cold in the winter and stunk all the time. The outhouse was sitting on the bankofa creek and the boy determined that one day he would push that outhouse into the creek.

One day after a spring rain, the creek was swollen so the little boy decided today was the day to push the outhouse into the creek. So he got a large stick and started pushing. Finally, the outhouse toppled into the creek and floated away.

That night his dad told him they were going to the woodshed after supper.

Knowing that meant a spanking, the little boy asked why. The dad replied, "Someone pushed the outhouse into the creek today. It was you, wasn't it, son?"

The boy answered yes. Then he thought a moment and said, "Dad, I read in school today that George Wash­ington chopped down a cherry tree and didn't get into trouble because he told the truth."

The dad replied, "Well, son, George Washington's fa­ther wasn't in that cherry tree."

* * * E-gads that hits home. Having been a son and now

having sons I know all too well of fathers, sons, mis­chief and oflying.

I reckon I was as normal as normal lads go. On more than one occasion I let Mr. Imagination lead me

Don't Rush Me

to places I never should have ventured. Boys will be boys is the old cliche, but it's true. I'd wager that most boys have a Mr. Imagination that, at times, crowds out thoughts from Mr. Logic, Mr. Responsibility or Mr. Conscience.

By the second grade, I remember a couple of hot "issues" that overcame the best judgement, I, not yet in double­digits, could muster. The first is the

E •• '-~ time I was bored and wandering around the garage. Inside was always fascinating -- tools, old newspapers, junk, stuff. Why I even found a five

gallon metal bucket of tar Dad stored in there. I knew it was tar because I was bored and pried open the lid.

Easily distracted I then found my way to the old newspapers. I remember rolling one up, finding some matches and lighting one end of the paper roll and pre­tending to be the Statue of Liberty.

I remember being nervous as the flames burned closer to my outstretched hand. I quickly dunked the flaming torch ofliberty into the cool blackness of the tar. I covered up my indiscretion by putting the lid back on the metal bucket. The task completed I quickly for­got about the entire episode (until the next time Dad

needed to use the tar). There was another episode involving melting toy

soldiers and other toys with my sister Barb and the Kessler cousins. Mr. Logic went on a vacation that summer sometime before junior high school when I swam across Walter's Lake in Independence Town­ship.

Yes, I even played George Washington at Aunt Pat's house and started chopping down the cherry tree in her back yard. I have no idea what I was thinking by throwing a handful of feed com at a bunch of wasp nests, nor could I tell you why, when I found an old dump in the woods, I smashed all those old bottles (which caused our dog Lady to get a cut paw.)

And, the time I lied to Dad about knocking down the tree fort. Jeeze. I had it made, he believed me. "No, Dad. I did not knock that fort down."

I was a free man until guilt got the better of me. I immediately tried to rebuild the fort (atone) and that didn't work, nor ease my conscience. I had to fess up to Pops Rush. It was such a bad feeling lying to him -- the ensuing spanking (for lying) was nothing compared to the pain of knowing I let him down.

At no time in any of the above mentioned chapters in boyhood was I trying to be stupid or malicious -- I just was. It's a boy-thing -- we're lower on the evolu­tionary scale than girls.

Hopefully, I will remember that when Shamus and Sean start pulling stunts and shenanigans - they're just boys.

Arraigned for cocaine Carl Lee Gilliland, 37, has been arraigned

in 52-2 District Court for possession of cocaine and driving with a suspended li­cense. A deputy on patrol stopped Gilliland in the 7000 block ofDixie Highway, 9:36 p.m., June 12, after check­ing the license plate on his SUV and finding it had no title. Search of his vehicle turned up a tin of white rock, which tested positive for crack cocaine, five used syringes, two pipes, and an air pistol. The suspect also had a criminal record in Michigan and Florida, and 12 arrest warrants out of Genesee County.

Drunk driver On her way from work, a 21-year-old

Clarkston resident ran off the road and struck a fire hydrant with her Jeep Liberty, June 17 around 1:30 a.m. Her speech was slurred, smelled of intoxicants and admitted to having five drinks after work. She took a breathlyzer test for a .184. She was placed under arrest for operating while intoxicating.

Rock damage A 24-year-old Clarkston driver reported

her 2009 Chevrolet Malibu damaged by rocks on White Lake Road near East Court at 11 :45 p.m. on June 20.

A similiar complaint was taken on June 19 around the same time and intersection by a 31-year-old driver. She noticed glass on the road and heard a bang which sounded like a firework. Something also hit her windshield leaving a small chip on the bottom.

Neighbor trouble After cutting two of his neighbor's

flowering plants, a 60-year-old Staghom Trail resident was cited for malicious mischief, June 18. The caller, a 66-year-old male, admitted to cutting branches and leaves because they hung over his property line and he couldn't see onto the road when leaving the driveway. He didn't expect his neighbor to cut his plants in response. He was fearful that his neighbor might hurt him or his family.

T railer taken A 42-year-old resident of Shamrock Lane

reported his utlity trailer missing from his driveway. He described it as 5' by 8' with a steel floor and three holes in the driver's side rear. He believed he saw the same trailer off Bridge Lake Road, but upon investigation by officers, did not match the description.

Too many fireworks A resident on Lakeview Blvd. stated he

had on going issues with his neighbor shooting fireworks at all times throughout the day and night, June 19. A deputy explained it is tough to enforce fireworks ordinance because the officers have to witness his neighbor violating the ordinance. The deputy talked to the neighbor, who was not aware of the ordinance and thought it was okay to use fireworks year- round per state law. He said going forward he will use fireworks at allotted time and days.

No permit for deer A deputy stopped a Ford Ranger after

the driver did a U-turn on Ortonville Road by Rattalee Lake Road. While approaching he observed a dead deer in the bed of the truck. The 33-year-old Clarkston driver admitted he received a call from friend who hit the deer and was told to pick it up. He added he was glad to be stopped because he was going to call for a kill permit. The driver was cited for possession of a deer without a permit.

Plate gone A 66-year-old Clarkston resident noticed

her license plate was missing \\!hile she was at Rite Aid, June 13. The plate was entered intoLEIN.

Hit and run arrest Deputies noticed a white Lexus traveling

northbound on Sashabaw Road at a high speed, June 14. It matched the description of a vehicle used in a hit and run acciql'lnt in Waterford. The officer followed the SUV onto southbound 1-75 where the driver hit 100 mph and was swerving in and out of lanes. The 33-year-old Waterford driver slurred while answering the officer's questions when stopped, and admitted to consuming a few beers at a bar near Dixie Highway and Walton Blvd. When asked if he had driven through the construction in the area he said he didn't want to talk about it. A search through vehicle revealed an empty bottle of vodka and damage to the driver's front side - consistent with the accident. He was turned over to Waterford police.

Campers hone skills at Dream BY WENDI REARDON Clarkston News Sports Writer

Young cagers wore smiles as they practiced their skills and techniques during Dare to Dream F undarnental Basketball Camp last week.

"It's been pretty good," said Tim Wasilk, Clarkston Girls Varsity Basketball Head Coach and leading the camp. "It's been a fun week. The girls have worked extremely hard."

Girls in grades third through ninth worked on fundamentals every day such as ball­handling, defense, passing, rebounding footwork and shooting.

Meghan Deardorff, who is going into ninth grade this fall, has attended the camp for five years and each year she keeps improving.

"The fundamentals have helped me become a better player and know what to do in a situation," she added. "It has helped me learn how to do everything."

Deardorff noted a few improvements she has made through the years at the camp are in her shots, defense and footwork.

"My defense stance is better and my feet are quicker," she explained. "Learning how to box out and not letting people get around

She attended Dare to Dream five years ago to see ifbasketball was the sport for her. She found out it was.

"It made basketball fun and I kept wanting to do it," she smiled.

"It was a really good experience for them," Wasilk added. "It helps them anytime the girls are in the gym, they are playing and they have a ball in their hands. Most of the girls on my varsity team have come up through this or the summer league. The kids see them coming up and work with them and our coaching staff. It makes a big difference."

Campers received tips from coaches in the Lady Wolves basketball program as well as current varsity players.

"They see the high school girls and look up to them," Wasilk added. "They get a player's view and someone closer to their age."

The girls also played five-on-five basketball games and participated in four contests every day in three divisions separated by grades. The winners from each day competed against each other on the final day of camp. The winner received a trophy and bragging rights for the next year.

Contest winners from this year's camp were Natalie Nicklin, Megan Rusnak and Meghan Deardorff in hot shot; Nicklin, Kaelyn Kaul, Jade Garcia in free throw knockout; Nicklin, Danielle Hopkins and Aalayna Green in lightning; and Nicklin, Hopkins and Kaylee Percival in one on one.

"It's a lot of fun," Deardorff said. ""More people should come out and play."

Kids polish construction skills at competiti9n

Michael Yates, left, and Jake Goodwin, Oakland Technical

BY PHIL CUSTODIO Clarkston News Editor

Construction students put their skills to the test at the Novice Carpentry and Masonry Invitational, June 6 at Oakland Technical School Northwest in Springfield Township.

"They're looking good, working fast," said Patty Adolphs, instruction resource and cluster development consultant. "They're definitely doing a good job getting th'e kids ready. I'm impressed."

The Clarkston students competed against teams from William D. Ford Career-Technical Center, Westland, and Warren Consolidated School District.

It was a practice round for the students, who will compete as seniors next year in Skills USA contests.

"The biggest thing for them is to learn team building," said Dan

Barterian, building trades teacher with Warren Consolidated Career Preparation Center, who brought a team of three students. "They're dealing with a liHie bit of a time constraint, and learning how to get everybody to work together on something."

"They're doing great," said Duane Olds, carpentry and masonry instructor at the Northwest center. "The kids are doing well this year, with a lot of di fferent experiences."

"This is a great end of the year experience for the guys," said Dick Moscovic, Northwest center construction trades teacher.

"It gives them some experience for next year's competition," Barterian said. "So far, they're doing OK."

The competitions are part of the center's construction trades program, which also includes lots

of on-the-job training in the community, said Mary Beth VanBuskirk, School-to-Careers Coordinator with Oakland Schools Technical Campus, Northwest.-

Next year, the students will work on site on carpentry, plumbing, framing and other projects, VanBuskirk said.

"They learn a variety of skills, not just construction," she said. "We get calls from local businesses. They know students are well prepared, and take them into apprenticeships. Mali) transition into jobs."

Students work on construction projects with Christmas In Action, Rebuilding Together, Grace Center for Hope, Oakland County Parks. and other groups, she said.

"More employers are looking for help than we can give them," Olds said. For more information, call 248-922-5813.

GARDEN STONES: Danielle Daigle will create a special granite stone for each gardener who participates in the Adopt-a-Garden program in Depot Park in downtown Clarkston.

Cable committee to be created for consolidation Continued from page 1 ship money, allow students more access to equipment, and provides more of a workforce to Independence TV.

"I need bodies," said Barnhart, adding if he had 20-30 students he could produce more programming on the channel.

Independence Township Trustee David Lohmeier proposed a one year trial period. He said the Township should hold a perfor­mance review in about a year, and if signifi­cant progress is not made, "We move on," he said.

Township Clerk Barb Pallota said having better equipment at the school provides a valuable vocational curriculum at the high school, and may help keep students from moving away after they graduate.

Clarkston Community Schools and Inde­pendence Township receive money from tax­payers through Public, Education, and Gov­ernment, PEG, fet:s collected from cable tele­vision subscribers.

The consolidation plan would transfer $300,000 dollars in equipment from the township'S swdio on Maybee Rod to the Clarkston High School studio, along with $200,000 a year in capital lease payments.

The move would save the township $55,000 on rent, utilities and other costs as­sociated with the Maybee Road location. According to the plan, the township would retain ownership of the equipment.

"People, ~'t using Independence TV's MaybeeRo~ . espite recent renova-tion and equip . grades," said Kittle last February,;'r:Iarkston High. School has the opposite problem, with kidS lined up to learn. But the high schOol's equipment is an­ti'l.uated, not stYted to its purpose. Combin-ing the two would be ideal." .

Get your hands dirty at Depot Park BY ANDREAM. BEAUDOIN Clarkston News Staff Writer

If you want to get your hands dirty-De­pot Park is the place to go.

A new Adopt-a-Garden program in the downtown park has been a beautiful success, according to City Manager Carol Eberhardt, who came up with an idea to have several spots in the park available for gardeners to adopt.

"It gets people actively involved in the community," she said.

James Bickford adopted a garden in front of the Veterans Memorial in the park for his dad, John, as a Father's day gift. John said when he noticed the sign offering adoptions he knew it would be a great gift for his dad.

"My girlfriend and I were walking through the park when we noticed the sign that said 'adopt me,'" said Bickford. "I knew my dad would love it."

John, a United States Air Force veteran, said he was speechless when he found out what his son had done for him.

"They told me that their car was making noises and asked me to go for a ride. Before I knew it we were in Depot Park, and that's when they showed me the garden," he said. "I love it."

James and his girlfriend Ciara Leatzua invited John to come and help plants flow­ers and lay new mulch. In addition to plant­ing flowers, James is going to install some decorative bricks to honor his grandfather, who like his dad, also served in the mili­tary.

Gardeners can plant any kind of flowers and plants.

"People can plant anything they want," said Eberhardt.

It's free to sponsor a spot, but interested individuals must buy their own materials and make sure the spot is kept up. The city will provide free mulch.

Gardeners can adopt a spot and design it anyway they wish and dedicate it as a memo­rial or in an organizations or business name. So far the city has created I I spots that gar-

deners can pick from-several of which have already been adopted.

Eberhardt said there are plenty of spots still available, and even if the current spots run out, the city will designate more spots for adoption.

Each gardener will get a persona1ized gran-

ite stone created by local artist Danielle Daigle to take home at the end of the season. Daigle, who has always like to draw, is using her creative talent to make a special stone for each spot.

The etched stones will feature different designs and wording based on each

A new Rain Garden, which contains na­tive plants that love to be water logged, has also recently been installed in the park.

Players learn at lacrosse camp BY ANDREW MILLER Special to the Clarkston News

Young players hit the field to improve their skills at Clarkston Lacrosse Camp.

Clarkston High School hosted the seventh annual camp this week to develop younger players and improve their skills.

The camp hosts players ranging from second grade to upcoming freshman. It is also home to athletes all around the county, not just Clark­ston. Players from Clarkston, Lake Orion, EverestAcademy and Oxford were all there trying to improve their skills.

"The goal of this camp is to im­prove all of their skills and ftmda­mentals," said Brian Kaminskas, head coachfot the boys varsity team director. "We want

and was excited about the camp. "Improving my passing is what

I want to gain from this camp," said Risc. "Passing is a huge part of the game and so far the coaches have all been great. They are helping me get my passing better and be more confident."

Josh McCaghy has also been playing for two years and develop­ing his offhand was what he wanted to improve.

"We're here to get better at the skills and fundamentals," said McCaghy. "My offhand needs to get better and that's exactly what they are helping us with here."

In order to learn however, you need a good teacher. Kaminskas is one of the state's best coaches, and the camp gave players a chance to learn from college players who were back from their seasons.

One of the coaches, fOGJl1er Clarkston standout Nick Demattia, Was excited to share his knowledge to the n"· . D

. sity,pfD~!t

"I think it's great so many col­lege athletes come back to help these players," said Demattia.

"I'm excited to play my part in helping these younger kids," he added. "It's good to see how far Clarkston's program has come and to continue it. (The coaches) want to see the athletes get a better knowledge of the game, and im­prove their lacrosse IQ. Like any camp, we all want them to have ftm, too."

AI! around the field, coaches set up different drills, showing kids proper technique and teaching them the right way to play. The next evident observation was how much ftm the players were having.

"It's a skills camp, but also meant to be ftm," said Kaminskas. "It's the coaches job to get them excited, and make it ftm."

Light rides to grant wishes BYWENDI REARDON Clarkston News Sports Writer

Bob Light isn't a stranger to endurance events after completing three lronman, over 20 marathons and hiking long distances.

Now the Independence Township resident is preparing for 300 miles of cycling in the 26th An­nual Wish Bicycle Tour for Make-A-Wish Michi­gan, July 25-28.

"It is for a good cause," Light smiled. "We are riding on Team Jenna. Jenna Kast was a young girl who lost her life to cancer at age 11. We are raising funds and aware-ness for kids with unfor­tunate diseases. Under Make-A-Wish the funds grant wishes for those kids."

He explained one of his friends participated in the event last year and asked Light if he would do it this year. Light said yes because it was for a good cause and is an en-durance event. Light

"It is a good mix of both," Light added. "It was an opportunity to do some good, raise some money and awareness and something to train for and do."

Each member of Team Jenna has a goal for how much they would like to raise for the event. Light's goal is to raise $2,500.

The event spans three days with cyclists trav­eling a 100 miles per day in the 300-mile route. Light is preparing with lots of bike riding ..

The longest distance he has ever biked was 120 miles in one day so he is taking time when he can to prepare. During the week he tries to ride 25 miles at least 2-3 nights on the Polly Ann Trail. He takes longer rides during the weekend.

"It's tough," he admitted. "You have to build

into it. I trained in the winter on the bike in my basement watching television. Then with this spring it was ditlicult because the weather was so bad."

Light added there is a physical element to get in shape for it and there is also a mental element to prepare for during the long distance.

"Endurance tests really helped me with a lot of time on the bike," he said. "You have to be in the moment. You have to be patient to deal with the fatigue and boredom. Everything builds on itself."

When he hits a mental snag during the ride he is prepared to tackle it by thinking of the kids and making their wishes come true.

"Knowing it is going to be for this good cause, and that we are going to grant wishes for kids is what is going to be the piece to pull it together," Light explained. "When things get tough and I am out there on the road with Team Jenna, every­one will struggle at different times but when I have my moments I will think about those things '" the money I have raised and the good it is going to do."

He added he has received a lot of support from his friends, family and his employer, Complete Automation in Lake Orion where he is the Chief Financial Officer.

"They are supporting me with time off and donations," he explained. "It's good to have your employer support you like that. I thank them for it."

Light has been in the Clarkston community for 15 years and runs with the WollPack Running Club and is part ofthe Clarkston Multisport Club.

Light and members from Team Jenna invite the community to their fundraiser at the 24th Street Sports Tavern, 13 S. Washington Street in Ox­ford, July 9 from 5-9 p.m. They will have a 50150 drawing, prizes and an auction.

To make a donation, please visit www.wishamile.organdsearchforBobLight.

The cyclists begin in Traverse City and finish on the track at Michigan International Speedway in Brooklyn, Mich. They meet one of the wish heroes, one of the children who had their wish granted, and receive a medal from the wish hero.

"I hear it is pretty emotional," Light added. "The event is going to be really fun. I know last year they ran into some tough weather. We have had tough weather training this year. We have had rain, cold and wind. Hopefully we can pan anything Mother Nature throws at us~"

How to live with less anxiety What do you worry about? What pre­

it! Second, refuse to be easily offended.

Do you find yourself thinking, "How am

Paul goes on to say, "Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near." (Philippians 4:5) To be gentle is the oppo­

site of being contentious and self­Spiritual seeking. You put up with other

I going to pay the bills this month? What if I lose my job? What if the car breaks down? What if that doctor's exam comes up positive? Matters people's faults. You don't get your

feelings hurt all the time. You're not looking for a fight. You don't seek revenge. You don't get bitter and gossipy.

What if my kids don't turn out? What if my marriage doesn't make it?"

Some people are so easily of­fended that they spend have their life mad and filled with anxiety!

Anxiety can overtake us simply because of our "to do" lists! "I'm so busy! I'm so overwhelmed! I have these goals. I've got to per­form. I want to look good. But I can't get it all done! I'm stressed out!"

Pastor Greg Thirdly, pray! Philippians 4:6-7 Hen neman "Do not be anxious about anything,

Maybe we stress out because we care about our country and all the chaos and terrorism. We get upset when the "wrong" candidate wins the election. There is so much ungodliness in our country, and we

. worry and we are upset and we are stressed out.

It's a fact that we face all kinds of stresses in life, right? It's easy for us to worry about our stuff, our future, our health, our "to do" lists, and all that's going on in the world today.

The fact is, life is hard. We may lose our job. We might get sick. Few of us have all the money we want. We wish we could have stuff that we don't have. And the fact is, we carmot eliminate most of these stresses from our lives. So if we can't elimi­nate these stresses, how can we cope with them? How can live with less anxiety and morejoy?

Here's how: practice. Peace requires practice. That's important! So I'll say it

. again: Peace requires practice. You can have greater peace! You can have less anxiety! But you've got to practice! I en­courage you to practice these four things.

First, fight for joy. The Apostle Paul writes in Philippians 4:4 "Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!" It's a command! Just like "do not commit adultery! Do not steaI!" Rejoice in the Lord always! It's not a suggestion. It's a rome lIland GQ<iCQrnrnands ysto be happy! God

. wantS I!Stofight for j6y in.ourlives!-Joy ,doesfpdtoon\.e~! We':hav~to fight for 'i.:'M~,,: .... '_~:.4,:;,-,...:"·a.~~ G... -:,·0,:.",_",~ -,." '-:"

but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your re­quests to God. And the peace of God ... will guard your hearts."

The way to peace is prayer! Prayer is more than asking God for stuff. Prayer is about casting your anxiety on God and ask­ing for his peace!

Fourth, avoid stinkin' thinkin'. Philippians 4:8 "Finally, brothers and sis­ters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, what­ever is lovely, whatever is admirable-if anything is excellent or praiseworthy­think about such things."

What do you spend time thinking about? What do you fill your mind with? You are what you think! If you keep thinking bitter thoughts, lustful thoughts -if you keep thinking about how you hate somebody­you will become a bitter, self-centered, -hateful person. Fill your minds with posi­tive virtues that make life meaningful. Think about things that encourage healing and peace. You can't have bitterness in your brain and peace in your heart!

One more thing that I fmd helpful. Get a grip on your schedule. Try to balance it with rest, sleep, family time, and recre­ation. So many of us have killer sched­ules. Even if you can't change your sched­ule, take mini-moments throughout the day to exhale and whisper a prayer to God. "Casthll your anxiety on him because he cares for you." (I Peter 5:7) .

Farewell and good luck Theresa Rigato is saying farewell to

the Clarkston State Bank (CSB). Rigato, who has worked at the bank

for over seven years, started at CSB as a bank teller and worked her way up to branch manager.

Rigato will now be employed at Com­pany Team Financial, where she will be a sales manager specializing in equipment

fmancing. Her service territory will include all of southeast Michigan, so customers may still see her in the area.

"I will still be around," said Rigato. Her last day at CSB was Thursday, and

staff and customers threw her a going away party filled with cake and cookies.

"I will miss the CSB team and all the great customers," she said.

Family business lights up town BYWENDlREAROON Clarkston News Staff Writer

Joe Freed has brought his passion for lights to the Clarkston area with Midwest Lightscapes.

Freed used to work in sales in lights and learned a log about electrical lighting and how to install them.

"I thought it was fun," he smiled. "It is like painting with lights. You are able to light a home in ways people never saw it as. It is something when talking to a customer they are excited about it and I arn excited, too."

Freed added every home is different which makes it fun to design the perfect lighting for each home.

Besides his passion for what he does an­. other thing setting Midwest Lightscapes apart is they have fixers exclusively available to them.

"We are the only company who can see those fixers in Michigan and Indiana," Freed

. said. He added he also condnues his educa­

tion in lighting with additional training. Plus, their warranties includingjob warranties are the longest.

Freed began two years ago in Indianapo­lis, Indiana when he bought assets of the company to build the company and payoff his megical bills. He had Hodgkins Lyphoma Cancer and the" cost from chemotherapy treat­ments aiJd surgeries added up quickJy.

" His plan was always to starf a branch in Michigan and he. brought the company to·

when he moved to the area in De-

"It's going great," Freed smiled. "I took my dad on as a partner· and I have been do­ing this for a long time. It is definitely some­thing I love to do."

He added his dad, Bud, has the same pas­sion for it as he does.

"We both work with wood and do home repairs and renovations as a hobby," Joe said. "We like to see a home made better. It is something we really enjoy doing together.

"It's a great time to work with my father," he continued. "When you work with your dad there is already a bond there and you get to work with him. It is something I will trea­sure for the rest of my life working with my dad. The fact he has come on as a partner with me to help has been phenomenal and great."

Joe said it has been great being in the Clarkston community. He has enjoyed meet­ing all the people including all landscapers he has met.

"I like Clarkston," he smiled. "I really like the downtown area and have found a lot (It'

cool places. My parents have fallen in lo'e with it and they have lived here for eight years. They are excited and my dad is really excited about becoming more imolved in the community. He is a pastor in town but he is excited to get involved'in other areas of town and to be a business-owner as well."
