Updates for the Veterans Helping Veterans:
I would like to give Thanks to the wonderful ladies of Alpha Omicron Master Chapter of Beta Sigma Phi. These ladies did an outstanding job of making easter basket for the 10 Veterans we have at Parkview. This is not the first time they have stepped up to help us. It is with humble hearts that each Veterans said Thank You to each one of them. Ruth Gilman keeps in touch with me and makes sure that we have what we need to fill the bags for each man.
I have had several to help in other ways. They do not wish to be named however Please know that what you have gave will go to make sure each man gets what they need.
We are still taking donations and items. If it wasn't for the love of the Veterans that a lot of you have this program could not work. Still feeling the loss of my Co Founder Linda Little I wasn't sure if I could keep doing this. But I know in my heart that it is something that was so near and dear to her that I couldn't not do it. Thank You to Dale and Christy Mc Cord of Fla who took time out to send me a very touching card during this time of a great loss and gave a donation also.
Thank You to Alco of Tipton who keeps us in bird food so that we can fill the bird feeders each month. Thank you to Tim and Anita of T&A Town and County Auction in Tipton for your out pour of support and donations to these awesome men that gave so much to help others.
Remember now is the time that each one of these men needs us the most. They were there for us and now we need to be there for them. Keep them in your thoughts and Prayers. If you would like to donata please contact Robin Trueblood at 425.4646.

ELWOOD, IN - One of the largest wind farms in Indiana is just north of where the wind blows and will supply Indiana Michigan Power about 100 megawatts of power by the end of the year.
Groundwork for the substation and foundations are being poured for about 125 wind turbines at the site called Wildcat 1 and built by E.On Climate and Renewable Inc, out of Austin, TX. The multi-billion dollar renewable energy outfit signed a 20 year contract with Indiana Michigan to supply power to the Midwest electric giant's grid.
It might be early July before portions of wind turbines will be delivered to the site in Madison and Tipton counties, according to David Mayne, spokesman for Indiana Michigan. The facility is expected to be operational by the end of the year.

Met a buyer at our local CVS Thursday evening. Buyer drove off and left me with $25 NOT the $2000 that was agreed. This is a Green w/silver 2 tone 1996 Ford F150-Standard Cab Long Bed 2WD with (C A T) in the rear window and some hunting decals. Buyer said he lived in the apartments above the old wonder bar across from Stingers uptown. Buyer went by the name of Randal Jo Williams. Any information would be very helpful in this matter-Please relay any info to the Elwood PD.
