For John Schell, a business class was all it took to
spark an idea. After being asked to write a business plan,
he stumbled upon an idea for a lawn care business.

Downtown New Haven
business re-builds after fire
Lash Auto Service, in
downtown New Haven, has
re-opened after sustaining
damage from a fire. Busi-
ness owners Larry and
Marla Lash have re-built
and re-opened the business
at 540 Broadway in late
November. The newly
rebuilt 4,000 square foot
service center will have
larger work bays to accom-
modate recreational
vehicles and large trucks
up to one ton with new
diagnostic, brake, tire and
alignment equipment that
will make Lash Auto
Service one of the most
technologically advanced
auto repair shops in the
area, a press release
stated. The renovations
also include a new service
write up facility and have
added exterior and interior
detailing to their list of
services.
Owner Larry Lash was
pleased with the results.
We are very excited
about the renovations and
excited that we will also
be able to offer more serv-
ices to our customers, he
said. Lash Auto Service
specializes in diagnostics,
alighments, engine repair
and rebuilds. They also
have the capacity to
service fleet vehicles and
Mayors band together to promote growth
A caucus of northeast Indiana
mayors is forming to collaborate on
economic development issues,
legislative advocacy and other
matters of common concern.
The formation of the caucus is
being led by New Haven Mayor
Terry McDonald and Angola Mayor
Richard Hickman, both of whom
recently visited Denver with other
regional leaders to learn about
collaborative efforts in and around
the Mile High City.
In early November, an initial
meeting of eight mayors
including Fort Wayne Mayor Tom
Henry was convened. McDonald
said it is hoped the caucus will even-
tually include 14 mayors from 10
northeast Indiana counties.
Were going to take it slowly and
build trust among each other,
McDonald said. The more we know
each other, the more we will be able
to move our region forward so were
strong and working together. We are
stronger together than we are sepa-
rately. Weve heard that a thousand
times, we just havent practiced it.
The formation of the mayors
caucus is yet another layer of
regional collaboration that gained
momentum Nov. 21 when regional
economic development officials and
community leaders unveiled a series
of Vision 2020 priorities designed to
ensure the recovery and sustain-
ability of northeast Indianas
economy.
Northeast Indiana Regional Part-
nership President and CEO John
Sampson said the chief impetus for
the priorities is a northeast Indiana
per-capita income that is 79.5
percent of the national average.
The overarching goal of the strate-
gies, he said, is to develop, retain
and attract talent. The priorities are:
21st-century talent: increase the
percentage of northeast Indiana
residents with four-year degrees,
two-year degrees and certifica-
tions to 60 percent by 2025.

Maker station allows
hands-on learning
TekVenture and the
Allen County Public
Library want to inspire
more innovation in the
area by teaching some
advanced manufacturing
technology basics and
providing newbie makers
with the tools, materials,
space and mentoring
needed to find out where
that new knowledge can
take them.
A maker station has
opened on space the
library has provided in its
parking lot at the intersec-
tion of Washington
Boulevard and Webster
Street in Fort Wayne. The
library is providing the
station with electricity as
well as the location just
south of the main branch
downtown.
The 50-foot-long trailer
will serve as a workshop
and demonstration facility
featuring an array of
advanced manufacturing
technology, including
computer numerical
control (CNC) industrial
equipment. TekVenture
and the library are devel-
oping programs to teach
people how to use the
equipment and already
have some volunteer
teachers lined up for the
task.
A preview of the maker
station for library staff and
patrons as well as the
general public was sched-
uled for 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.
Nov. 25-26.
We think theres a
really big interest in the
community we just cant
assess, and as soon as we
get this running, theyre
going to come out of the
woodwork, said Greg
Jacobs, president of
TekVenture, a nonprofit
group in Fort Wayne with
a mission to improve
public access to the kind
of specialized tools,
equipment and training
required by artists and
inventors to advance inno-
vative projects.
There might be
programs where we take a
group of people and give
them an introduction at
the library and then take
them over there, said Jeff
Krull, director of the
library. Visitors working
on projects at library
computer stations can
take some of their designs
and maybe make some-
thing over there, he said.
I think early next year
is realistic. Well be doing
some brainstorming with
Greg and coming up with
some ideas in the coming
months.

Sisters make writing
murder mysteries fun
For two area sisters, writing murder
mysteries is a collaborative effort. Its
fun, like playing a game, Margaret Yoder
said. She dubs herself the storyteller,
while her sister said shes the scribe. As
the authors of three novels, including the
most recent, Murder for Old Times
Sake, which is set in Fort Wayne, the
sisters compliment each other when going
through the production process.
We get together for coffee several
times a week to discuss the chapters
weve already written and plan the next
ones, Yoder said. The stories, main
characters and settings are mine. My
sister fleshes out the scenes and writes the
chapters. We both edit.
Her sister, Johnine Brown, enjoys
writing, but
feels a collaborative approach suits the
style they are looking for.
I like to write, but I dont have the
imagination my sister does, she said.
She has been writing non-fiction as an
academic for many years. First as a
doctoral student who wrote a thesis on the
murder mysteries of Ross Macdonald,
then as an English professor in a Chicago
college and a lawyer in private practice,
she said.
Yoders interests are different, but she
said themes are created easily.
If I were starting over, Id become a
forensic scientist, so writing murder
mysteries provides an outlet for that
interest. Another of my interests is how
ordinary people work out the good and
evil forces in their nature. Stories
combining those themes come easily to
me, she said.
Murder for Old Times Sake features
locations people around the area might
recognize, such as Indiana University-
Purdue University Fort Wayne.
Neither of us was born here, but its
where we live now, so were familiar with
it. Why more books arent set in flyover
country is a puzzle, since millions of
readers live here, Yoder said.
Brown agreed.
Our values are midwesternGod,
family, and countryso whats more
appropriate than a midwestern setting,
she said, adding that all of their books do
take readers to other places in the country,
as appropriate to the plot.
The sisters also write using a pen

in the past with TekVen-
ture on activities related to
its mission. The nonprofit
groups annual Chain
Reaction Challenge has
been held each year at the
librarys main branch
downtown.
Participants in the event
build a contraption with
moving parts that work
together in as many steps
as possible to expend
enough energy to lift a
golf ball one inch. The
whole exhibit must be
confined to a six-foot
table. The chain reaction
consists of each exhibit
activating the one next to
it, until the end of the
chain is reached.
TekVenture has had a
goal of establishing a
center with donated
equipment and tools it
could make available to
the community as a public
art and technology labora-
tory. A mobile version of
the lab was considered to
acquaint the area with the
concept, and some equip-
ment was installed in a
trailer TekVenture
intended to drive around
to schools.
Krull learned about the
TekMobile idea during
discussions with Jacobs
about the Chain Reaction
Challenge, and the two
became curious about the
level of interest library
patrons might have in a
maker station conve-
niently located next to the
library, which many
readers have come to
know as a source of do-it-
yourself information.
We just kept this
dialogue going and came
up with the idea of
providing space for the
maker station sort of as an
evolutionary version of
the TekMobile, Krull
said.
Its an experiment. Its
something were
exploring as a role for us
here. I think working
together, we can maybe
add a dimension to the
service we provide the
community, Krull said.
We try to have a multidi-
mensional environment
of learning opportunities
for people.
Equipment at the maker
station includes a CNC
router, a CNC miller, a
three-dimensional printer,
an injection molding
machine and a metal
lathe. Some of the equip-
ment has been donated
and some of it has been
assembled from kits. The
milling machine was a
gift from Fort Wayne
Community Schools. The
trailer was a gift from Ivy
Tech Community College.
In addition to time that
will be available in the
maker station without
charge to individuals
participating in programs
sponsored by the library,
TekVenture may make
additional time in it avail-
able through general
admission fees and
membership fees. Maker
Meet Ups have started
taking place there at 7
p.m. on Thursdays.
Individuals who learn to
use equipment at the
Maker Station wont be
experts; were not certi-
fying anybody to go out
and run equipment with a
computer, Jacobs said.
But learning the basics
of working with advanced
manufacturing technology
could spark an interest
that could lead a maker to
get the kind of training
required for an industrial
occupation or for some
very serious tinkering in a
home workshop or studio.
Exposing more young
people to these tools and
technologies is one of our
objectives, Jacobs said.
When I talk to people in
industry and ask them if
they can get enough tech-
nically qualified people to
run these machines, they
say, no, they cant.

Local Marine Visits Central
Lutheran School 3rd Grade Class
Last year, Mary Potters second
grade class wrote letters to a class-
mates cousin that was serving in the
Marines in Afghanistan. Imagine
their excitement when that same
Marine, Matthew Mayer, stopped by
to visit the now third graders in
Phyllis Hockemeyers class. He
wanted to meet the authors of the
letters and share some of his experi-
ences with the class while he was
home on leave. Then he is off again
for training and then deployment in
January. The class wanted to honor
his sacrifice and service by
presenting him with a personally
made thank you card. The students
were full of great questions and
appreciated the time one of our
soldiers took to explain what life is
like for a soldier and the people
dealing with war on the other side of
the world.

Food bank families receive fresh
produce in time for holiday meals
A successful food drive
with Northeast Indiana
Public Radio allowed
Green B.E.A.N. Delivery
to make a donation of
4,050 pounds of fresh
produce to Community
Harvest of Northeast
Indiana two weeks ago.
The donation happened
just in time for the Farm
Wagon to deliver fresh
vegetables to Indiana resi-
dents for the Thanksgiving
holiday. In October, Green
B.E.A.N. Delivery
committed to donating
three meals of fresh
produce - roughly four
pounds - for every pledge
made during NIPRs semi-
annual food drive. The
initiative brought in 3,102
meal contributions. With
Thanksgiving just around
the corner, our produce
donation couldnt come at
a better time, Matt Ewer,
president and co-founder
of Green B.E.A.N. Deliver,
said in a release. His online
home delivery service
provides organic produce
and natural groceries to
Fort Wayne members.
Fighting hunger in the
communities we serve is of
the greatest importance to
our organization. Were
honored to have the ability
to give back to the Fort
Wayne community, Ewer
continued. Farm Wagon
delivers 1.5 million pounds
each year of fresh produce
and other perishable items
such as milk, cheese and
yogurt.

While we all enjoy the company and holiday
cheer of the season, entertaining, meal planning
and gift giving can leave you feeling pinched for
pennies, and your house disorganized. In fact,
according to GfK Custom Research North
America, this years holiday spending is projected
to be lower than last year with 84 percent of
consumers intending to spend less. Holiday travel,
however, is expected to increase by 43 percent
compared to 2010, reported by American Express
Co., so dont be surprised if you find yourself
squeezing a few additional bodies in the house
this season.
When it comes to keeping guests happy and
comfortable while entertaining on a budget, plan-
ning and preparation are crucial. Heres some
advice straight from Stephanie Begley, associate
marketing manager of leading floor care brand
Dirt Devil, to ensure youll stay clutter-free and
cost-conscious this season.
Everyone knows the holiday season is the most
stressful time of the year due to the hustle and
bustle of work, travel and visitors, Begley said.
Whether you are expecting guests for a day or a
week, hosting a festive party for five, or a dinner
for twenty, she has tips for saving time, energy
and money around the house:

one of the most challenging and
important things to do around the
holidays. Searching the local paper or
hopping online to do a quick search
for deals in your area are steps you
can take to help plan your holiday
recipes while saving.
Thinking outside the gift box -
Get crafty while saving money and
resources. Repurpose newspaper and
magazine pages to use as wrapping
paper. Find a tutorial at
www.ehow.com. Make sure to save
and store gift bows and bags for use
next year as well.
Enlisting the help of others -
Dont be afraid to ask family and
friends for help when cleaning up
after dinners, parties or even prepping
for the fun. Remember the holidays
are a time for everyone to spend
together, so if you plan on cooking a
big meal, divide the to-dos between
guests. Same goes for clean-up
assign someone to vacuum, another to
load the dishwasher and clear the
table. You will minimize clean-up
time and maximize quality time with
your family and friends.

Family exercise is a
great way to spend more
time with your loved ones.
Its a topic I have been
diving into lately for my
own family and I am
happy to share ways to get
your family involved in
fitness. It is not only a
way to be healthier, but it
is also a way to connect to
each other on a deeper
level, making a happy
family. Sharing an activity
with a spouse and/or chil-
dren allows you to know
them in a way you never
knew possible. It takes
team work and patience-
two virtues we may all
need a little more of!
1. Analyze what you
have access to, such as
an open space in a living
room, a backyard, park,
hula hoop, jump rope,
kickball etc. It can be
anything that gets you
moving and engages you
as a family. Ask your chil-
dren or spouse what they
find fun to do. Listen to
each person and incorpo-
rate fun into fitness. For
example, my husband and
I have taken up running 5-
10k races in the last 6
months. Fortunately, we
live close to a park that
allows us a place to run
safely. To get our practice
going, my husband,
daughter, and I put on our
running shoes and head to
the park. My 3 year
daughter loves running the
block and a half to the
playground area of the
park. From there, my
husband and I will take
turns playing with my
daughter on the play-
ground while the other
one runs. When we play
with my daughter on the
playground, its not just
standing there and
watching. We climb, crawl

Three tips for staying fit through
the winter with your family

and slide with her. We
also run around the base-
ball diamonds when they
are not being used and my
daughters favorite
rolling her up a hill. She
lies at the bottom of a hill,
while I get down to the
ground to roll her up the
hill. She laughs all the
way up; meanwhile I am
getting an intense workout
for my legs, shoulders,
and abs.
2. Remember that
when it gets cold out,
you can still be outside.
30 minutes in 30 degree
weather is possible to
handle. It will give you all
the more reason to move
around and get warm.
When the weather is
really bad, we play around
the house. It involves
anything from hopping
around like frogs, prac-
ticing yoga, or an
impromptu dance party.
Yoga with children can be
really fun. Check out your
local library for children
yoga books that can help
you tell a story while
teaching them how to
move with yoga.
3. Find free ways to
get fit. It does not cost
any money to be healthy
and happy-just an open
mind and a willing heart. I
encourage you to get up
and move with your chil-
dren. Turn the TV off and
dance. Get off the couch
and hula hoop. Work
toward spending an hour a
day playing. Allow fun
and exercise to combine
with family. Believe me,
as someone who spends
all day everyday teaching
fitness and yoga, some-
times the last thing I want
to do when I get home is
more fitness; but the most
important thing to me is
to ensure that the younger
generation learns how to
be active. So, heres to
spreading the love and
being active in our fami-
lies lives!

Three Rivers Running Company
opens new store
Northeast Indianas premier
running and triathlon spe-
cialty shop moves to a new
location
On December 1, Three Rivers
Running Company (TRRC) opened
for business at its new location, 4039
North Clinton St. The new location is
exactly 240 meters south on Clinton
from the stores former building.
We are moving into our new loca-
tion to expand in both our products
and services, said Eric Ade, General
Manager, in a press release. The
new building has a multi-purpose
room, so we can offer more clinics
and events. Also, we have much
more space for inventory so we can
offer more product selection. The
store is increasing its square-footage
by approximately 45 percent, which
will provide many more opportuni-
ties for both staff and customers.
Our new store location is designed
to enhance the overall customer
experience, said Brad Altevogt,
owner. We want to provide a high
level of customer support and
personal service.
[Our new store] will help us to
continue to provide the highest
quality products and services to meet
our customers needs, Altevogt said.
We want to serve our customers in a
way that enhances the enjoyment and
benefits of their active lifestyles.
Three Rivers Running Company is a
locally owned, independent running
specialty retailer. The hallmark of the
companys service process is a
personalized gait analysis for running

because I knew a little
something about land-
scaping. The more I wrote
my business plan, the
more I realized I knew,
he said.
Two weeks into the
course, he turned to his
wife and said, This is
something I can do. It
was at that moment, he
decided to go into busi-
ness.
Schell now operates
The Lawn Boys Lawn
Care, which is a business
that helps seniors stay
independent in their
homes in New Haven, by
helping with yard work. It
started in June.
A special place in his
heart for seniors stems
from a personal story.
He returned to the city
after living in Massachu-
setts because his aging
parents needed help. His
mother had Parkinsons
and his father was diag-
nosed with Alzheimers
disease, which rapidly
progressed.
This realization led
Schell to start thinking
about why seniors give up
their homes.
A big reason why
seniors give up their home
is because they cannot
take care of the outside,
he said. Friends and
family will come in and
go to the inside and they
just dont have time to do
the outside.
For $25 per week, The
Lawn Boys Lawn Care
will mow a yard for a
senior.
My pricing is geared
toward the senior commu-
nity. They are on a fixed
budget, Schell said.
He said his company
has standards on how the
yard work will be orches-
trated.
We do exactly what
they want us to do, he
said. We dont go in and
take over their property.
He said some clients
still enjoy planting
flowers, but are not faced
with mowing the grass
again, because of the
companys assistance. The
company will also do
trimming, edging, pruning
and planting work.
Schell said price is
another factor that makes
his company a benefit to
the community. Giving
the example of his parents
paying exorbitant fees for
yard work, he said for $25
a week, its considerably
less than what people pay
for the association
[mowing] fees, which
can be found in some
senior communities.
While there are
roughly 25 weeks in the
mowing season, he said,
he will also be providing
services for snow.
We are also doing
snow removal, Schell
said, adding that a snow
blower and shovels will
be used. He said this is
important because
seniors need to get from
their homes to their
mailbox.
In the future, he plans
to add interior services to
his business, which might
include things like
cleaning.

Boys Lawn Care, call

Currently, 31.5 percent of region resi-
dents have a degree.
Entrepreneurship: complete Quick Start,
a one-year pilot program providing
expert advisory services to accelerate
entrepreneurial opportunities and small
high-growth companies.
Infrastructure: increase regional Internet
access to become one of the most
wired regions in the country, and
enhance regional interstate accessi-
bility.
Competitive business climate: stream-
line permitting and zoning processes
across the region to create a more
friendly business climate, and increase
flight frequency and nonstop air service
at Fort Wayne International Airport to
heighten business access to national
and global markets.
Quality of life: promote riverfront
development in downtown Fort Wayne
to create a vibrant and dynamic metro
center for the region that will attract
young talent and tourists.
The next step in the Vision 2020
process, officials said, is to find strategic
partners to help carry out the priorities.
Coinciding with the release of the
priorities, 10 local economic development
organizations in northeast Indiana,
WorkOne Northeast, NEIRP and the
Regional Chamber of Northeast Indiana
signed a code of ethics that essentially
mandates that the region be sold first to
prospective businesses above the inter-
ests of individual communities.
The pact of accountability decrying
competition among LEDOs and other
economic development leaders is nearly
identical to a code developed by the
Metro Denver Economic Development
Corp.
McDonald said it is anticipated the
mayors caucus eventually will develop its
own noncompete code of ethics a
nonpartisan code that will be introduced
to each incoming mayor upon election.
In all successful regional collaborative
efforts across the country, one of the keys
has been understanding that economic
development cannot be tied to political
persuasions, nor does it neatly follow the
cycles of political service.
That understanding will be vital to the
northeast Indiana mayors efforts,
McDonald said, as will persuading both
elected officials and constituents that the
most important thing isnt necessarily
landing a coveted big project in ones
own backyard.
Its going to be a paradigm shift for
everybody, McDonald said. You have to
convince constituents on the benefit of
regional solutions. If were all fighting
one another, all those companies will go
to successful regions that can put aside
politics for the benefit of the region.
Hickman cited Family Dollar Stores
Inc.s decision to place a $70-million,
350-employee distribution center in
Ashley in DeKalb County as an example
of a project that should not be perceived
as a parochial win.
Its not in Steuben County, he said,
but its 100 feet away. We dont look at
that as just a win for Ashley. We look at
that as a win for the whole region.
In Angola, he said, the odds are long
that the city will land a 400- or 500-
employee company. But it can attract
suppliers to the big companies, he said,
especially with the marketing muscle
offered by regional organizations like
NEIRP.
The second and third tier that supply
those businesses were in great shape
for setting up those kinds of companies,
Hickman said.
McDonald said organizers of the
mayors caucus hope the collaborative
effort doesnt stop at city hall. He said he
can envision the caucus also including
county commissioners and town
managers.
Its just going to require one baby step
at a time, McDonald said, because
were all used to competing with one
another. Its like a good marriage. It takes
work every day.

Community involvement, Italian
cuisine served at Zianos
One local restaurantZianos
Italian Eatery, is partnering with the
Kelly Cares Foundation, which was
started by Notre Dame Football
Coach Brian Kelly and his wife,
Paqui, who is a cancer survivor. The
foundation supports initiatives that
align with the goals of the Kelly
family, which includes health,
education and community. The
health basis includes an emphasis on
breast cancer and supports research,
prevention, education and awareness.
Education initiatives include institu-
tional advancement and research.
The last goal and value includes
helping the community, which spans
involvement in projects.
With three locations in Fort
Wayne, including the newest restau-
rant on Maysville Road, the eatery
will sell $25 gift cards, with 10
percent of the proceeds being
donated to the Kelly Cares Founda-
tion.
We knew the support for Notre
Dame Football is very strong in the
Tri-State area, Tony Raffieed, Vice
President of Zianos said, in a press
release. We met with Alan
McKellar, Foundation President, and
are excited about the opportunity to
partner with them for such a worthy
cause.
In addition to the gift card
purchase, customers will also
receive a $10 off coupon for their
next meal at the restaurant.
Customers will also be eligible to
win prizes and gifts, which will be
given away on Dec. 22. The gifts
include autographed Notre Dame
footballs and mini, retro helmets.
Zianos also serves daily lunch
specials, with menu items like
lasagna, spaghetti and meatballs and
tilapia with angel hair pasta. For

tion, as well as menu items, visit

from page A1
nameMargarite St. John.
We wanted one memorable author
name, so we combined versions of our
real names, Yoder said. Margarite is a
variant of my first name and St. John
picks up the first name of my sister, who
was named for our father, John.
While sitting at a blank computer
screen might seem daunting for some,
Brown revels in the process.
Sitting down at a blank computer
screen everyday, putting flesh on the
skeleton my sister has sketched, is an
absorbing challenge. I once worked for a
research institute as an editor of technical
publications, so I even like that process,
she said.
Yoder on the other hand, enjoys the
storyboard process.
She said her favorite part about writing
includes making up the story and char-
acters, visualizing the scenes, and seeing
the final product.
But at the end of the day, the sisters
just like writing.
We want people to read our books, but
we have no desire for personal fame. We
think our characters lives are more inter-
esting than ours, Yoder said.
The big, wide world doesnt need to
know us personally, Brown added.
