DeKalb County Sheriff Department

A Deputy with the DeKalb County Sheriff’s Office arrested Rodolfo Hernandez on a routine traffic stop this morning at approximately 1:00 A.M. at 69 Hwy and U.S. 36 Hwy in Cameron, Mo., and transported him to the Cameron Police Station for a warrant out of St. Joseph, Mo. where he was identified and was going to be transported to the DeKalb County Sheriff’s Office. As the Deputy was escorting Mr. Hernandez to his patrol vehicle, Mr. Hernandez was able to escape on foot. At approximately 10:00 A.M., Cameron Dispatch received a

call from 2 boys that were mowing a yard when they were approached by a male who was still handcuffed asking for assistance in cutting off the handcuffs. With the help of the Clinton County Sheriff’s Office, Missouri State Highway Patrol, Cameron Police Department and Cameron Fire Department, we were able to locate Mr. Hernandez at approximately 12:00 in the afternoon and place him in custody a second time. Mr. Hernandez has been transferred to

the Daviess/DeKalb Regional Jail pending charges.

On Saturday, May 27, 88 Dragon Band students and numerous parents and chaperones boarded charter busses for a long-awaited trip to Florida to perform at Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom. Following a 24-hour bus trip, students arrived at their destination, the Disney All-Star Music Resort. The Magic Kingdom hosted the parade in which the CHS Marching Dragons performed on Memorial Day. In 97 degree heat and their traditional all-black uniforms, the Marching Dragons, with pom squad and color guard, performed with pride and excellence. Of the parade performance, Kenzie Terhune says, “I had a blast marching outside at Disney. It was incredible to see all the people that we didn’t know cheering for us, even though we all felt like we were sweating like crazy!” Students and parents alike were struck by the professional expectations of the Disney team.

Strict guidelines for appearance and performance were met in order to earn the opportunity to be a Disney Performing Arts ensemble. Band Director Blake Duren states, “The process to become honorary Disney cast members began 9 months ago. Written and video applications were submitted and we were pleased to be selected for the 4th time.”

This year’s appearance also included a Disney Performing Arts workshop with Disney professional musicians and staff. On Wednesday, May 31, the band was given the opportunity to rehearse with a Disney conductor and record soundtrack music for excerpts from Disney’s animated hit, “Tarzan”. “This experience exposed our students to the world of a professional, working musician. Working with extreme focus and individual responsibility to perform a piece of music correctly the first time was our challenge. The kids did a great job!” While copyright laws make it impossible to share online, students were given a screening of their final product and were amazed at how music for a soundtrack comes together through the work of not only musicians, but sound engineers. Sophomore Lauren Peck - “Working in the Disney studio was one of my favorite experiences. It gave me an idea of what it’s like to record as a professional musician, and everyone worked together to create an amazing end product.”

The Dragon color guard worked with a Disney dance choreographer to learn how to prepare a dance audition. They learned a guard routine and then had to opportunity to give a ‘job interview’, such as a Disney performer might have. Guard instructor Jean Eckert commented “The girls were surprised with the speed at which they

The City Council continued their discussion on the electric rates and the questions Councilman L. Corey Sloan had provided to Zac Johnson about the electric rates experienced by some customers in the winter. Sloan said he and Johnson during very professional discussion they have agreed to disagree on some things. Johnson said there will be an individual who will be coming in to test meters. The City needs those who experienced high electric rates to contact the city to let them know they had a high utility bill and request their meter be tested.

Sloan offered a motion to the council to bring Bill 2016-20 back onto the agenda for further discussion after the testing of the meters can be completed. The Council voted to reconsider and discuss the electric rate ordinance on their agenda at the July 17 meeting.

Toward the end of the meeting, the City Council reviewed and discussed appointments to the Park Board, the Planning and Zoning Commission and Board of Adjustment. Councilman John Feighert III asked if the positions were ever advertised as having openings, saying he is seeing the same people on these boards over and over again. Feighert expressed his concern that people who may be interested in joining the boards may not be given the opportunity and there may be a missed opportunity to have new blood join the board. Drew Bontrager said he cannot speak for any other board, but the Park Board has been very fortunate with those who serve on the Park Board being willing to volunteer their time for no

compensation. Mayor Breckenridge suggested time

limits for board members and said there should be no one who serves on more than one board.

Councilman Ronnie Jack said there is public participation at every board which meets, if anyone is interested, they should speak up during those public participation times at those meetings. City Clerk Barbara O’Connor explained to the Council – when those on the board agree to continue their time, there is no advertisement put out to the community.

Fire Chief and Planning and Zoning Chairman Mike O’Donnell stood up and explained there have been openings which have gone unfilled due to lack of interest

The City Council approved unanimously the appointments of Al Briggs, Cory Brown and Carrie Sybert to the Park Board; George Pratt and Tom Hamlet to the Planning and Zoning Commission; Kent Osborn and Larry Rader to the Board of Adjustment.

During the city manager report Zac Johnson was filling in for Mark Gaugh to offer the City Manager report, which was prepared and in the packet for the Council.

The first item in the city manager report was a request for a liquor license was received for the upcoming car show. However, the city requires three readings for a change of this tie and has never deviated and there is not time to get three readings done in time for the car show.

Bids have been received for the demolition of several houses; staff is evaluating the bids and should have those soon for the Council.

The Highway 36/Grffin Road Community Improvement District is moving along, they should be in the process of selecting prospective board members.

New culverts are in place along Lana Drive, as are the basin catch structures.

had to learn and then be ready to audition. They had 20-minutes to learn and then were on!” Next, was lights, camera, action! During their live performance, special ‘guest’ Goofy made a surprise entrance! Guard member Brenna Bontrager remarked, “I had no idea that Goofy was going to come out and perform with us! I was in total shock - it made our performance so much more fun!”

The Dragon Pom squad worked with a Disney dancer/performer and learned how to prepare a dance

routine quickly and professionally. A new experience for the girls was to learn some beginner ballet technique. Jentrie Van Brunt, senior pom member commented “I love the way our Disney clinician was fun and showed us how to be professionals but also have fun in the process.” Freshman pom member Aubrey Brown really was impressed with the opportunity to work with Disney staff. “It was an amazing experience and I’ll never forget it!”

Band, pom and color guard

students and approximately 45 parents and chaperones enjoyed the four main Disney parks for the remainder of their time - the Magic Kingdom, EPCOT, Disney Hollywood Studios and Disney Animal Kingdom, where the most popular attraction, by far, was the newly opened ‘Pandora’ from the movie Avatar. Students and parents arose bright and early to arrive at the park by 7:00 am to avoid the near 4-hour wait time that came later in the day!

“Our students were thrilled

with the opportunity to represent their school and community, as well as enjoy the thrill of being a part of the Disney experience as a group. We cannot thank our school administrators and board enough for their support of this effort this year. We also could never have made this happen without great band parents and boosters!”, Band Director Ann Goodwin Clark states. Senior band member Tana Anderson summed up the experience, “The Marching Dragons put their hearts into every

moment and we could not have asked for a better final performance to share together. The trip was truly a ‘Disney Spectacular’ time!”

Dragon senior band member, Susie Bremer adds, “My favorite part on the trip was to spend time with the band and have fun together in the parks!” As with everything, the CHS Dragon Band is truly a family!

COUNCIL _______________________________________________________ from front pageWork should be nearly complete.

An EDOC/Council workshop is scheduled for Thursday July 13 for work on incentives.

Johnson added, city staff has been evaluating the need for a July 3 Council meeting and has recommended not to have that meeting, as there seems to be nothing pressing at this time.

The pool has been having issues, which was believed to have been a chemical issue, but Johnson said they believed they had found the problem in the filtration system and fixed it. However, as of the printing of this article, the problem is not yet resolved. The water is safe, there is a problem however with lifeguards being able to see the bottom of the pool, causing a safety issue.

Unfinished business included: a second reading was completed on a bill allowing exceptions to the drinking in public ordinance in conjunction with the Crossroads

Crush Festival. The bill was passed unanimously; and a resolution providing tax abatement under Missouri State Statute Chapter 353 was approved unanimously.

New business proposed to the council were several bills with full readings.

Bills approved unanimously by the Council included: An ordinance authorizing the city to enter into an agreement with Bartlett and West for design of the Prospect Street Improvement Project. Once the project is surveyed and designed, there will be a meeting with any homeowners who may be affected by the project; an ordinance to accept property located along Groat and Eighth Street as the public right of way; and an ordinance approving an agreement between the city of Cameron and CMG Grave Service for the purpose of cemetery interments at the five city cemeteries.

A resolution was presented to

the City Council to accept a bid for a new medium duty vehicle for the use of the work release program of the city. Mayor Darlene Breckenridge asked for clarification on what was wrong with the current vehicle being used – to which Drew Bontrager explained the current vehicle has many mechanical issues which will cost more than the value of the vehicle. Breckenridge also asked about the status of the work release program, as the Council had been advised at one time there were no work release participants available. Bontrager explained the work release program occasionally has times participants are not available, but they have been back to work for the city for some time. Feighert asked if the city ever considered the purchase of a used vehicle instead of new. Bontrager explained they have, but it is difficult to find a used vehicle with all the specifications the

city requires. The resolution was passed unanimously.

A resolution approving a project for Cameron Regional Medical Center – which will cost the city nothing, but must be approved by the city since the hospital sits within the city limits was approved unanimously.

The final resolution passed unanimously by the city was to accept the bids for the Automated Weather Observing System and to award the bid to Kimrey Electric.

Larry Griffey made a request during public participation to modify the car show application to add street closures. Griffey brought up other questions, to which City Clerk O’Connor requested he make an appointment to discuss with her all of his concerns.

Stephanie Williams –of North Central Missouri Business Facilitation (NCMBF) provided an update packet to the Council – purpose to assist entrepreneurs and

small businesses with resources. Provided latest brochure and latest newsletter. The Council had previously provided funds to NCMBF through the community projects fund.

Gina Reed of the Cameron Arts Council applied for financial assistance from the City Community Projects Fund for the 2017 Arts Festival. The Council took no action on the application, when asked for a motion, a motion was offered, but no second, so the application did not move forward. Reed returned to the podium at the end of the Council meeting to request the approval of the Council for the Arts Festival, even if they do not offer any financial support. The Council voted to direct staff to prepare a resolution to approve the Arts Festival at the next meeting.

The next City Council meeting will be June 19 at 6 p.m.

Farmers’ Electric Cooperative will celebrate 79 years of providing electric service to Member-Owners at our Annual Meeting to be held June 13, at the Gary Dickinson Performing Arts Center within the Chillicothe High School, just west of Highway 65 on Route 190. Doors open at 5:30 p.m. for Member registration. Cookies and punch will be served to help celebrate the milestone. The business meeting begins at 7:00 p.m., with a report on the state of the Co-op and the election of three representatives to the Board of Directors for District 2 (Caldwell and Clinton Counties), District 3 (Ray County) and District 7 (Chariton County).

Door prize drawings will occur at the conclusion of the event, with dozens of prizes to be awarded and two grand prizes: one Member will receive a $500 Farmers’ Electric Cooperative bill credit and another

will receive a 32” Smart T.V. A gift bucket with a $10 bill credit, ice cream spade and electrical safety/efficiency information will be given to Members upon registration. There will be a kids’ fun zone open during the meeting, which will include a bounce house as well as other activities and games for kids, ages three and up.

Farmers’ Electric Cooperative was formed in 1938 and funded through the Rural Electrification Administration, part of President Franklin Delano Roosevelt’s efforts to pull the U.S. out of the Great Depression, provide electric service and stimulate the economy, particularly in rural areas which lacked many modern conveniences.

Farmers’ Electric Cooperative celebrates 79th Anniversary at annual meeting

On Monday, May 22, 2017, Cameron Regional sponsored its 1st Annual Stroke Reunion for patients who had been seen in the Medical Center’s Emergency Room over the past year subsequent to suffering a stroke. Family members and care givers were invited as well, with approximately 20 people in attend ance.

Stephanie Davis, D.O., Board-certified Emergency Room physician and Medical Director for CRMC’s Stroke Program, organized the evening and was pleased with its outcome. “We had several people attend who were very appreciative of the support they were able to gain that evening,” stated Davis. “Stroke victims can feel isolated and disheartened, while family members/caregivers close to the patient can easily become overwhelmed with the responsibilities they face on a 24/7 basis,” she added.

Mary Jo Middleton, M.D., Physiatrist, was the featured speaker for the evening. Dr. Middleton specializes in Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation, assisting stroke and other disabled patients in returning to their normal activities of daily living to the greatest extent possible. During the course of the evening, stroke reunion attendees had a chance to visit one-on-one with both physicians, while also interacting with each other to exchange experiences.

On February 29, 2016, CRMC was certified by the Missouri Department of Health & Senior Services as a Level III Stroke Center under the State’s Time-Critical Diagnosis System. As such, it must meet or exceed certain guidelines and protocols in regard to timeliness of care and treatment. From the time the patient enters CRMC’s doors, to transfer to a tertiary facility, a turnaround time of 60 minutes or less is mandated. Included in this time frame are the completion of a CT scan (and possible MRI if deemed necessary), lab work, and administration of thrombolytic (“clot-busting”) I.V. therapy, if appropriate.

Stroke is a major cause of serious disability for thousands of adults and

is the fifth leading cause of death in the United States. Each year, approximate-ly 795,000 people in the United States have a stroke, with one being experienced every 40 seconds.

In regard to stroke education, Fred Kiehl, D.O., Medical Director of CRMC’s Emergency Room, emphasizes the importance of the general public being familiar with the “FAST” acronym: “FACE - Look for an uneven smile; ARM - Check if one arm is weak; SPEECH - Listen for slurred speech; and TIME is of the essence, so call 911 or get to your nearest Emergency Room at the first sign of a symptom or problem.” He further stated, “As stroke is considered a true medical emergency, the care provided in the first few hours is critical in impacting the patient’s long-term recovery and prognosis.”

Eighty percent of all strokes are preventable according to the American Stroke Association. Risk factors for stroke include: Family history, obesity, physical inactivity, uncontrolled high blood pressure, high cholesterol, atrial fibrillation, excessive alcohol consumption, diabetes, heart disease, and smoking. The risk for stroke increases with age, and women have a higher risk of experiencing a stroke than men.

Dr. Davis has indicated that the Medical Center hopes to make this an annual gathering for education purposes and information exchange. This year’s event was catered by Duane and Matthew Burnett.

On June 3rd, 2017, The Community Cupboard hosted its 5th Annual Hunger Run. The Community Cupboard Food Pantry is a 501 (c)(3) private organization owned and operated by Larry and Sarah Griffey, sponsored by The Walnut Street Baptist Church, dedicated to helping those in need. The Community Cupboard is a non government funded organization that is strictly volunteer driven, operating on donations, fundraisers like the Hunger Run, the upcoming car show, yard sales, raffles, and other endeavors.

Participants came from many miles away, including Braymer, Independence, Platte City, Pleasant Valley, Kansas City, Bates City, Stewartsville, Cameron, Plattsburg, Saint Joseph, Dearborn, Lee’s Summit, and Blue Springs, Missouri. In addition, some rode from Tonganoxie and Kansas City, Kansas.

Breakfast was served by The Walnut Street Baptist Church ladies, Mary Ann Pate, and Ruth Albright, and sponsored by Walmart of Cameron. A total of 5 volunteers put this event together investing an estimated 135 hours, and donating over 760 miles.

“This is our 5th year conducting The Hunger Run” says CEO/Director Larry L. Griffey. “Our goals this year was 20 participants, raising $2,000.00 and 4,000 lbs of food”. “We had over 30 participants, with some riding over 75 miles one way to help fight hunger” says Chief Operations Officer Sarah J. Griffey. “Together we raised $2,485.00 and 4,323 lbs of food, out

of 6 organizations collecting, Marvin Horn and his company collected 1,463” adds Sarah. “We are humbled by the number of folks who showed up to help battle hunger, sponsor the run, those who donated items for the silent auction, random people who just stopped by and donated cash, the support by the City of Cameron, and local businesses” says Larry. “We are awe stricken with the figures” says Mr. Griffey “…so many other events going on this weekend, including 5 other runs within a 50 mile radius, including 1 other motorcycle run here in Cameron, Rockfest, Ride for Ryan, and number of car and motorcycle shows around the area” adds Mr. Griffey.

“We would like to thank The City of Cameron, local Cameron business and individuals, all the participants, and above all God for making another successful event” says Sarah. “We are able to purchase needed equipment and feed those in need over the summer months” adds Sarah.

“Our next big event is July 1st, 2017-Crossroads of America, Celebrating Our Freedom-Car, Truck, Motorcycle, Tractor, and Camper Show. This show will be held in Cameron, and around McCorkle Park. We have over 165 trophies and plaques this year” says Mrs. Griffey, Show Coordinator. “We also have over 20+ vendors and a couple of really big surprises” adds Mrs. Griffey. Entry fee is just $15.00 per vehicle, and free admission for the general public.

The zipper merge is back. The Missouri Department of Transportation is implementing a zipper merge as part of a bridge replacement project in Clay County at southbound I-35 over 69 Highway in Liberty in efforts to reduce traffic build up during rush hour. Construction began Wednesday, May 10, and will continue through Thursday, August 31.

This alternative way of merging was utilized last summer while bridges were being repaired along I-70, and it proved to be efficient. However, the merging technique only works if everyone participates properly. Changing how drivers think about merging is going to take some rewiring for motorists.

It is natural for drivers to merge as soon as they realize the lane ahead is closed, but with the zipper merge, drivers are encouraged to fill both lanes until the point of lane closure. At this point, motorists take turns merging every other vehicle, like teeth of a zipper, into the open lane. It is best to think of two lanes merging into one versus one lane merging into the other.

Open lanes fill quickly during dense traffic when using traditional merging methods. When a driver in the closed lane cannot merge in time, the vehicle is forced to quickly come to a stop. The vehicle then has to merge into traffic from a standstill.

Behavior like this can lead to crashes caused by inconsistent driving speeds, lane switching, road rage, and long back-ups.

Zipper merges have been proven to reduce dangers as well as traffic backup lengths by 40 to 50 percent. Not only does this type of merge reduce risks for drivers, but it also aids in worker safety by reducing speeds around employees. Pay attention to signs posted near construction that indicate what type of merge to use. Common signs for the zipper merge will say: “Merge Ahead, Use Both Lanes,” “Stopped Traffic Ahead, Use Both Lanes,” or “Merge Here, Take Turns.”

For more information regarding safe merging, visit www.modot.org/workzones/ZipperMerge.htm. For an example of how a zipper merge is done, view https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tug9NBK6Sdk.

Rewiring our merge for safety, efficiency

Edward Sill wrote these words in “Opportunity” -----------

“This I beheld --- or dreamed it in a dream; There spread a cloud of dust along a plain; And underneath the cloud, or in it, raged a furious battle. Men yelled, and swords shocked upon swords and shields. A Prince’s banner wavered, then staggered backward, hemmed in by foes. A coward hung along the battle’s edge, and thought ‘Had I a sword lf keener steel --- like that blue blade that the King’s son bears --- but this blunt thing…’ He snapped, and flung it from his hand, and cowering crept away and left the field. Then came the King’s son, wounded and sore, beset and weaponless; And saw the broken sword, hilt-buried in the dry and trodden sand; And ran and snatched it up, and with battle-shout lifted afresh he hewed his enemy down and saved a great cause that heroic day!”

A tale of two men: one a coward and the other a hero. The coward ran from the struggle; the hero did the best with what he had. Both men had the opportunity to win the battle; only one did!

God Almighty has given each of us the opportunity to win the battles of life. As we all well know, life is a constant struggle

between good and evil; an on-going, life & death battle. And each of us must choose either to fight or to run. God, however, has provided us with the only weapon that will enable us to win life’s battle; that weapon is the Cross!

The Cross, for most people, is a useless symbol of the past, a broken sword. Only a fool would even think that because a Man died on a Cross on Mt. Calvary over 2,000 years ago, it will make a difference in today’s world. And so, because the Cross seems like a useless, senseless symbol, the Cross is cast aside --- and we are left with nothing to defend us; so, we run away and we lose all that is right and good in life. Look around and see that it’s true! People are running scared, groping for anything to help them cope with life; they’re copping out, giving up --- because the struggle is too much for them; they see the Cross and discard it.

The Cross, for others, is the weapon that will destroy the forces of Evil! There is great power in the Cross! This power comes from the Christ who died on the Cross; He sacrificed his life so that all our sins might be forgiven. Through His death on that Cross, He defeated Evil; through His resurrection from the grave, He defeated Death. Christ gives that great power to every person who believes in Him, who accepts His as Lord and Savior, and who commit themselves to follow Him faithfully.

A tale of two men: one a coward, one a hero. One let life defeat him; the other won the battle against Sin & Evil --- and received the Crown-of-Life! Which of the two are you! Which of the two do you want to be?

This May marked the completion of the 4th year that Cameron has had a Biomedical Sciences Program at the High School. It also marks the end of another great year for the program, the HOSA chapter and it’s mem-bers.

This year, the HOSA Chapter hosted two of our annual Junior Scientist Events. This year’s themes included Waters, Fluids & Solutions and Physics. The HOSA members had a great time as we led almost 160 local elementary students through 18 different sci-ence experiments and demonstrations. As al-ways, we all had a great time getting messy and learning about science.

The HOSA Chapter also attended state competition this past March at Missouri S&T in Rolla, MO. We took 21 competitors that competed in 12 different events includ-ing: Clinical Nursing, Veterinary Science, Biomedical Laboratory Science, Medi-cal Terminology, Biomedical Innovations, Pharmacology, Pathophysiology, Nutrition, Sports Medicine, and more. The competi-tors spent two days in Rolla going up against the best and brightest from all over the state. The competed against over 1300 other stu-dents. Cameron was represented well in all its categories and even had some top finish-ers. Michelle Short (freshman) and Lizzy Stamper (freshman) placed 3rd in the state for CERT Skills. Love Gardner (sophomore) placed 1st in the state for Human Growth and Development. This is the second time that Love has placed in the top 3 at state competi-tion. And Tana Anderson (senior) placed 2nd in the state for Job Seeking Skills. This is the third time that Tana has placed in the top 3 at state competition.

The Biomedical Sciences Program also celebrates with eight graduating seniors who during their time in high school completed all three years of the biomed program. Each of these seniors have showed dedication to their studies and perseverance through this very rigorous program. The HOSA Chapter wishes you the very best in your future en-deavors.

The HOSA Chapter would also like to thank our sponsors. So much of what we are able to do as a program and as a chapter, is made possible not only by the support of our school district but also by the generos-ity and support of many local businesses and individuals. Every year we offer educational science events for local elementary students. We are able to offer scholarships for students to attend our events, such as Junior Scientist. We are happy to announce that we have been able to give scholarships to every applicant in the 4 years. The chapter has also been able to purchase a live feed autopsy from the University of Ohio for our chapter members. We began the autopsy this spring and will finish it in the fall. We have also made plans to have a chapter field trip to the Mummies Exhibit at Union Station this fall. We do this and so much more, to benefit students of all ages in the Cameron School District, but none of it would be possible without the

help of our annual sponsors. We would like to thank

our local HOSA sponsors for their continued funding of our program and the won-derful opportunities that we are able to offer the students of Cameron because of their unwavering support.

Lauren Peck, daughter of Russell and Jackie Peck, a student at Cameron High School in Cameron, Missouri, has been selected as one of 330 students to attend the 2017 Missouri Scholars Academy, a three-week residential program to be held June 11-July 1 on the campus of the University of Missouri-Columbia.

Founded in 1985, the Missouri Scholars Academy (MSA) celebrates its 32nd season this year. The goals of the Academy are to help gifted students achieve their full potential and motivate them to use their abilities to attain high standards of achievement, to encourage local schools to improve and expand gifted education programs; and to assist in providing the state with experienced faculty and specialized curriculum for such students. For over 25 years, MSA was sponsored, in full or in part, by the state.

Every public and private high school in the state is allowed to nominate at least one student for the Academy.

A c a d e m i c a l l y , students represent the top one-half of one percent of the state’s sophomore class.

Students attending MSA will be exposed to a wide range of activities as well as intensive instruction in their chosen area of specialization. The faculty is composed of outstanding teachers from high schools throughout the state. Guest speakers, performers, discussions, and

career education will be combined with extracurricular and social activities to round out the curriculum.

Over 10,000 Missouri high school students and teachers will have participated in MSA since its inception.

Letters to the EditorLast week I had a business

meeting in downtown Kansas City. Long story short, I lost my wallet. Happens everyday to people all across America, right? But what doesn’t happen is what I experienced thereafter — and that is a collision of the small world we live in with what makes so many of us proud of Cameron and its people!

Out of the hundreds of thousands of people living, working and visiting downtown Kansas City on that particular day, the person who found my wallet was from Cameron. What are the chances?

By the time I arrived home later that day and had taken care of all the inconvenient chores that come with losing a wallet, the person who found it had tracked down my wife on Facebook and relayed to her that its contents — cash and all — appeared to still be in the wallet. (Thank goodness for the advent of social media and the people who use it for good!)

He also told her that he was going to be in Cameron over the weekend and that he would bring the wallet to us. Again, what are the chances?

So who was the mystery good samaritan? He didn’t ask me nor did he prohibit me from telling anyone, so I’m going to share with you that it was none other than local boy Tyler Beckett; son of long time Cameron businessman Bill Beckett. Guess who the first person I saw that afternoon at the post office: as small town living

would have it, none other than Bill Beckett. Once again, what are the chances? I shared my story with Bill, knowing this story would make him and Marsha very proud of their son — and rightfully so!

As an aside, Tyler Beckett is founder of an organic tea company located in Kansas City. As I frequently purchase various sorts of gifts for my clients, I can assure you a lot of that business will now go to his company, Hugo Tea. I also plan to encourage my cohorts and other business associates to do the same. And with only six shopping months left before Christmas, I would encourage the readers of my story to keep Hugo Tea Company in mind as you think about gifts for friends and loved ones!

As I get closer and closer to the ripe old age of 40, this experience has strengthened my faith in the next generation. But more than that, it has given further testimony to the goodness that is the people of Cameron, which dates back many generations — and as evidenced by my experience, will continue for generations to come.

Thank you, Tyler, and thank you to Bill and Marsha for raising your son with the values, morals and integrity this world needs in our next generation of business men and women!

Readers, please visit Tyler’s website: https://www.hugotea.com and/or his Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/HugoTeaCo/

On June 7, Lions Clubs International will be celebrating 100 years of service and the Missouri Lions would like to thank you the reader for your help over the years, including a very busy 2017. An idea by a man named Melvin Jones has grown into the world’s largest service club organization with over 1.4 million members!

This year, in addition to what your local Lions Club does in your community, the Lions Clubs International Foundation has issued over $100,000 in grants throughout Missouri. These include Disaster Relief Grants due to the tornadoes that hit Perryville and Oak Grove along with the just announced Matching Fund Grant enabling the construction of an ADA Accessible Therapy Swimming Pool at Camp Brim Shire near St. James, with a wheel chair ramp directly into the swimming pool. The therapy pool will be the only one in a big geographical area! The St. James Lions Club appreciates the help received from so many Lions Clubs across the state.

State Representative Rocky Miller was a special guest at our State Convention, where he read the Missouri House Resolution he authored that honors Lions Clubs International and the Missouri Lions as we celebrate this Centennial. The Resolution was approved in the Missouri House of Representatives and signed by House Speaker Todd Richardson. While listening to Representative Miller, we were able to reflect on how fortunate we are as Lions, being able to serve, whether with the incredible groups of volunteers where tornadoes struck, to where cleanup from flood damage is currently taking place, along with so much at home like Scholarships and the local Food Pantry. This on top of helping our partners provide eye exams in schools, needed

eye surgeries, matching the right Leader Dog with those in need, to helping those with limited eyesight gain as much independence possible as they enter adulthood. Lions throughout Missouri, along with our partners have been busy!

Lions could not do what we do if it weren’t for you. Whether you enjoy that pancake breakfast, fish fry, golf tournament, car raffle, rubber duck race or bag of peanuts, you’re helping Lions serve millions across the globe and here at home in Missouri. Thank you and God Bless!

Lion Dave BaldwinMarketing/Communications,

Missouri Lions

Who, What, When, Where, How, Why

Fellow Americans, I am writing this article with

the hope of bringing much needed attention to a national security issue. No, I’m not referring to the president or “collusion”, but rather to a small group of anti-American computer hackers who were allowed to steal secret information to compromise our national security!

WHO: Abid, Imran, and Jamal Awan. These Pakistani brothers are Information Technology (IT) specialists who, until recently, were employed by members of Congress.

WHAT: These three men were given access to U.S. government computers containing classified information. The Awan brothers were paid $160,000 annually to access to the nation’s most sensitive information.

WHEN: It is unclear how long the Awan brothers have been employed as IT staffers. They have been in the Washington D.C. area since 2008. It is also unclear exactly how many members of Congress they worked for. The Daily Caller (www.dailycaller.com) puts the number at over 20.

The American Spectator (www.spectator.org) claims over 50.

WHERE: These spies didn’t waste their time with “small potatoes.” Instead, they went straight to the top. They worked for congressional members of the House Committee on Foreign Affairs, the House Select Committee on Intelligence, the House Armed Services Committee, the House Committee on Homeland Security, the House Committee of Science, Space, and Technology, and the House Energy and Commerce Committee, just to name a few.

HOW: It is unclear how the Awan brothers infiltrated Congress. One thing is clear: they were employed and given computer access by our elected representatives in Congress. They didn’t hack government computers from afar; they were invited in and given security clearances.

WHY: I know why the Awan brothers did it; because they hate America. Why do you think the members of Congress allowed it? Because they hate America too!

.Do your own computer search

of “three Pakistani brothers” and you will see for yourself that everyone involved is associated with the Democrat Party. You will also see how the mainstream media has shied away from this story. It is sad how the mainstream media has plenty of energy when reporting “fake news” about President Trump, but seems lethargic when reporting on these three spies and their cohorts in Congress!

Wake up, America! The enemy is within the gates! May God bless you and the United States of America!

Lawmakers concluded their business in quick and efficient fashion last week as the House and Senate worked to get a jobs bill across the legislative finish line in a matter of days. Called back for an extraordinary session by the governor to pass legislation that could bring 500 good-paying jobs to Southeast Missouri, legislators began their work on a Monday and secured approval for the bill from both chambers by that Friday.

The legislation approved by the General Assembly would let the Missouri Public Service Commission consider lower utility rates for two companies that are exploring options in Southeast Missouri. One company hopes to reopen the Noranda aluminum smelter near Marston, which closed last year and caused the loss of 900 jobs in the area. The other company has plans to build a new steel mill in New Madrid. If Missouri can entice the two interested companies to move forward with their projects, they would create as many as 400 new jobs at the reopened smelter, and at least 95 and as many as 200 jobs at the steel mill. The jobs at the smelter are expected to pay an average annual salary of $95,000.

Under the bill, the PSC would be able to approve a special, lower rate for a longer

contract of service for companies like the smelter and steel mill that use tremendous amounts of electricity. The final bill could be used not only to lure the two proposed projects, but also any new facility that would use more than 50 megawatts of electricity per month and that can show a true need for the special rate. The bill also includes consumer protections to ensure the PSC keeps the cost to other ratepayers in mind with any special rate it approves. With this provision, lawmakers hope to keep costs from being shifted to other customers.

Supporters say other customers of Ameren have no need to worry about increased utility rates because of the bill. They say the PSC has indicated ratepayers wouldn’t see an increase in their bill if the new steel mill opens. If the aluminum smelter reopens, the commission has indicated consumers could see a maximum increase of $54 per year after 10 years if energy-cost inflation would rise by 10 percent annually. However, supporters say that isn’t likely to happen.

The bill now moves to the governor’s desk to be signed into law. Indications are that the governor will sign the bill during the week of June 5. With his signature, the bill will take effect as law immediately. Supporters pushed for the immediate effective date because the company that plans to build the steel mill wants to make a decision on a location in June.

June is here, and that means the majority of Missouri students are finished with classes for the year and are now enjoying their summer vacations and/or working those summer jobs. It also means there are thousands of new graduates ready to embark on the next chapter in their lives.

Perhaps you have a son or daughter who just graduated from high school and who’s already planning out the details of their soon-to-be college dorm room. Or, maybe you have a little one who just graduated from preschool and is eagerly awaiting the first day of Kindergarten. Regardless of whatever their next steps might be, please know my Senate colleagues and I worked hard this year to ensure students in Missouri continue to receive the best education possible.

Despite facing a difficult budget year, we were able to fully fund K-12 public education for the first time since the Legislature passed the Foundation Formula in 2005. Although we had to make some adjustments in other areas of the budget to accommodate the fully

funded formula, this really was a big accomplishment, and I’m pleased we were able to do this for Missouri’s schools, teachers and, most especially, our students. For Fiscal Year 2018, Missouri’s public elementary and secondary schools are set to receive $3.4 billion in basic aid. Of that amount, more than $190 million is going to school districts in the 12th Senate District.

As far as our area colleges and universities, North Central Community College will receive approximately

$2.7 million in FY 2018 funding, while Northwest Missouri State University will get close to $40 million. On that same higher education note, I want to again offer my sincere congratulations to all those who recently earned their degree, and I wish you all great success as you start your professional careers.

As always, please feel free to call, email, or write with your ideas or concerns. My Capitol office number is (573) 751-1415, my email is dan.hegeman@senate.mo.gov and my mailing address is Room 332, State Capitol Building, Jefferson City, MO 65101.
