Peters Twp. hosts school board candidates forum
Seven candidates vying for four seats on the Peters Township School Board in the May 21 primary participated in a candidate's forum April 23 in the auditorium of the Peters Township Middle School.
The candidates answered, on a rotating basis, 12 questions ranging from the recent uproar about the district's growth and human development program, to the amount of money spent on upgrading and expanding athletic fields above Pleasant Valley Elementary School, to what the candidates expect will be the biggest issue in the next five years.
Participating were incumbents Lori Cuervo, Sue Smith, David Hvizdos and Cynthia Golembiewski. Jamison Hardy, Rebecca Bowman and Lisa Anderson are also in the race.
As an answer to the biggest issue in the next five years question, three of the incumbents, Cuervo, Hvizdos and Golembiewski answered funding or the budget.
"Everything we want and need to do begins with money," said Golembiewski.
Bowman commented that meeting the needs of all students was most important. Three percent of the district students receive a reduced or free lunch, she said, noting that not all Peters Township residents with children in school are living on an above average income.
For Smith, an incumbent, finding the right superintendent is essential. Former superintendent Nina Zetty left the district in December for a similar position in the Gateway Area School District. Joseph Dimperio is serving as acting superintendent until a replacement is found. The board has conducted five interviews with potential superintendent candidates and expects to have a new superintendent in place by the beginning of the school year.
Anderson said the budget was important but felt the turnover in the administration and central office needed to be stabilized. Hardy said he questioned fiscal responsibility from the board.
"You don't spend more money than you take in," Hardy said.
On the issue of fiscal responsibility, Smith answered that 72 percent of the annual budget is spent on salaries and benefits that "are controlled by contracts."
Hvizdos replied that two years ago the district was financially strapped when state and federal funding was slashed. Even with less money coming in, Hvizdos said not one teacher was eliminated. Anderson said financial responsibility means spending money in a "smart" way.
"I've never been afraid to spend money on important matters," Anderson said.
For Bowman, the district may, at times, see less funding, and that's when the district should tap parental involvement.
A $2.5 million upgrade and improvement project was completed at the athletic fields above Pleasant Valley Elementary School in the past year or so, at a time when money was tight. The project was financed by a bond issue. One question dealt with whether the expenditure was necessary.
Safety was one of the answers, repeated by Hvizdos, Golembiewski and Cuervo. Smith pointed out she voted against the project, adding she was not in favor of "gold-plated" fields. In response to the question, Bowman said she feels an extra curricular activity should be self-supporting and "parents should raise the money if they want the fancy schmancy stuff."
Hardy said he was torn and was concerned about the residential disruption.
Anderson said that athletics are extremely important, but smart spending is equally important. She, like Hardy, is concerned about disruptions to the neighbors.
On April 15, several parents attended the school board meeting to express concerns about the growth and human development program for the fifth-and sixth-graders. Parents who spoke told the board they preferred to teach their children about body changes and sexuality with some saying they relied on "bible-based faith."
Golembiewski said the issue was being dealt with, and she did not feel it appropriate to discuss in a public forum.
Anderson classifies herself as being more liberal as to what students can hear.
Hardy, a Lutheran pastor, has three children and worries about students hearing false information outside the classroom. If, he said, a parent wishes to protect their children, there is the ability to opt out.
The students who have permission to attend, are instructed in two, 40-minute sessions each year in the fifth grade, and in three, 40-minute classes in sixth grade. Cuervo said of the nearly 350 eligible students at the middle school, less than 10 have opted out. She said parents can attend the discussions about the program this summer.
As for Bowman, an abstinence program is something she would like to see in the district. And she would like to see more training for teachers, coaches and other school employees to answer questions if posed by a student.
Smith said a majority of students are not being opted out by their parents. "The program should represent the community at large," Smith said.
Hvizdos said the board has always sought parental input when it came to possible changes. And, he added, a parent can always opt out their child.
"The program is necessary and it does have value," Hvizdos said.

Style: CPN-1123067
As the name implies, the POTATO-NATOR is the result of gene-splicing the SWEET POTATO and the DOMINATOR. With a longer rail line and less girth than the POTATO, and a slightly pulled in nose similar to the DOMINATOR, the POTATO-NATOR is meant to be ridden 4"-6" longer than a POTATO, and approx. 2" shorter than the DM. The double concaves are softer than the SWEET POTATO and while the overall rocker has been increased slightly to enhanced performance, the low entry rocker remains which makes paddling a breeze. Designed primarily for 2'-4' surf, the POTATO-NATOR will hold its own in 3'-5' as well. Fin placement is optimized to be ridden as a quad, but don't be afraid to throw in a small, knubby trailer fin to help this hybrid 4-finner come alive in new ways. Splice and dice it up!

Search on Google Books to find citations of this quotation.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow (February 27, 1807 March 24, 1882) was an American poet who wrote many works that are still famous today, including The Song of Hiawatha, Paul Revere's Ride and Evangeline. He also wrote the first American translation of Dante Alighieri's Inferno and was one of the five members of the group known as the Fireside Poets. Born in Maine, Longfellow lived for most of his life in Cambridge, Massachusetts, in a house occupied during the American Revolution by General George Washington and his staff.

Got a new iPad/Nexus 7/Kindle Fire HD? Here are the 30 apps to download first!
Live Score Addicts (iPad/Android) Free
This is ideal for afternoons spent watching football on the box, it basically keeps you totally up to speed with what is happening in games across the globe. The push notifications are lightning quick and there's more than enough data to satisfy your inner Statto.
The big question is then what apps should you download first? We have put together a list of 30s apps that we think are absolutely essential. Some are games, some books, some enable you to watch TV, all are very useful and entertaining.
The app falls into several categories. There are genuine tablet apps- eg those created especially for say the iPad. Then there are those which are made for smartphones which will work on tablets in a slightly different way.
The only problem with the Android tablets is that not every app works on every tablet, so for example while Sky Go happily plays with the Google Nexus 7 it won't work on the Amazon Kindle Fire.
Anyhow most of these apps will work on most of the tablets. And a good percentage are free too – so what are you waiting for?

Rated 4.9 out of 5Â by 13 reviewers.
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Izzys Mom Great shoe for a little boy I bought these for my son, and they look great. I like how they are lightweight so he can run and play as he pleases. I was also happy with how fast they were shipped to me. These were my son's first pair of Adidas, but I am sure they will not be his last! June 22, 2013
Rated 4 out of 5 These shoes are cute. My little guy has a wide foot and some shoes look really misshapen after he wears them for a bit. We've only had them a couple of weeks, but he's worn them a lot and these shoes still look good on him. I like the style and color. They were a little squeaky when walking at first, but that has worn off. I wish the laces were a little longer. My son is not quite an expert at tying his shoes so I try to double-knot them which is only possible if I don't lace them up all the way. May 15, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5Â by mscfab1 Great selection & service We saw the White on White Orion's in Philadelphia, but the store did not offer half sizes. My daughter needed a 7.5. I went to adidas.com when we returned home and was happy to see that they had the size available! The shoes were shipped and delivered quickly and in perfect condition. They look great on her!!! Cutest all white sneakers on the market. April 8, 2013

Omega Q Plus with Vitamin D3 starts with Omega Q Plus—my top-recommended supplement for your heart and overall health. It contains Calamarine oil, a richer DHA supplement than fish oil supplements, your body needs supporting healthy blood pressure, circulation, and HDL cholesterol, as well as eye, brain, and colon health.
Calamarine oil comes from the South American calamari (squid), an extremely eco-friendly, sustainable source of omega-3 fatty acids. Plus, this Calamarine EPA and DHA supplement provides the omega-3 oils you need without the "fishy" aftertaste or unpleasant "repeating," that are so common with other fish oil omega-3 supplements.
Highly absorbable Hydro Q-Sorb CoQ10
Next, Omega Q Plus Vitamin D3 gives you the profound heart health, energy, and anti-aging benefits of CoQ10…but not just any CoQ10! My unique formula uses only the highly absorbable Hydro Q-Sorb® CoQ10, which scientific studies have shown to be 8 times more bioavailable than conventional CoQ10.
CoQ10 is best known for sparking energy production in every cell of your body, especially in your heart, which is the biggest energy-consuming organ of all. But, this vital nutrient is also one of the most potent antioxidant powerhouses known to science—delivering outstanding support for healthy, vibrant aging.
PLUS, remarkable health benefits from the world's most versatile vitamin
The research news on vitamin D continues to grow. This versatile vitamin can promote bone density and muscle strength, support immunity, healthy blood pressure, and so much more.
Our bodies require sunshine in order to make vitamin D and, these days, we just don't allow ourselves enough sun exposure to get the job done. That's why supplementing is critical…and why vitamin D was at the top of my list when it came time to consider additions to my superstar Omega Q Plus formula.
I insisted on using only the D3 form of the vitamin because it's the same form used by the cells and tissues in your body and it's up to 3 times better absorbed than the more common D2 form.
Plus, you get a generous 2,000 IU daily dose—the amount I recommend for significant health benefits and far more than you'll get with many stand-alone vitamin D supplements!
But that's not all…
Omega Q Plus with Vitamin D3 also gives you 5 of the top heart-health nutrients for unparalleled nutritional support:
- L-Carnitine – works hand-in-hand with Hydro Q-Sorb to increase energy and improve cardiovascular health
- Vitamin E – one of nature's top antioxidants that offers targeted support for healthy arteries
- Folic Acid – an important player in the fight against unhealthy homocysteine levels and an essential nutrient for keeping your blood vessels healthy
- Vitamin B6 – vital to over 60 different enzyme processes in your body and considered one of the key vitamins for overall health
- Vitamin B12 – works in combination with other B vitamins to lower homocysteine levels, enhance energy production, protect cardiovascular health and even boost your intestinal well-being and immunity!
Take Omega Q Plus with Vitamin D3 for your heart, bones, muscles, immunity, and overall health.

How do I know I am choosing the best supplements?
How is this form of CoQ10 more bioavailable?
Coenzyme Q10 is one of the more difficult compounds to absorb because it is a large fat soluble molecule. Hydro-Q-Sorb®, an all-natural, free flowing powder combines CoQ10 with gamma-cyclodextrin, a type of glucose molecule with a hydrophobic (fat loving) center and a hydrophilic (water loving) exterior, It essentially binds to and wraps around the CoQ10 molecule, allowing the CoQ10 to become water dispersible, making it easier to absorb.
What are the ingredient standardizations?
Is the formula kosher?
Is the formula and capsule vegetarian?
No, the softgel is made of gelatin which comes from bovine (cow) and porcine (pig) sources.
Is the formula sodium free?
Yes. There are also no preservatives, artificial colors or artificial flavors.
What are the "other ingredients" used in this product?
Gelatin, glycerin, medium chain triglyceride oil, gamma cyclodextrin, beeswax, soy lecithin, annatto seed extract, natural lemon flavor
Which of the ingredients are natural and which are synthetic?
All of the ingredients are naturally-sourced.
Can I take this product with Dr. Sinatra's other recommended nutritional supplements?
Yes. Omega Q Plus with Vitamin D should be taken with a high-quality multinutrient such as the Heart Healthy Multivitamin.
How should I store the product?
To preserve the quality and freshness, keep the bottle tightly closed and store it in a cool, dry place (59°-86°F). Do not refrigerate.
Is this product tested for lead, mercury, and other heavy metals?
Every batch of Healthy Directions products is tested for lead and heavy metals. Each is delivered to Healthy Directions with a Certificate of Analysis from the manufacturer stating that the products are free from heavy metals or within the limits set by California's Proposition 65 – the most stringent in the country.
Does this product undergo independent laboratory testing?

We offer both tough easy-to-clean plastic and sturdy wooden toddler chairs. We have a number of stackable preschool chairs which are convenient for both storage and cleaning. Many of our models come with a complimentary extended warranty, so they will serve you well through many years.
What kind of chairs do I need in my preschool classroom?
The early-childhood classroom requires seating for a number of different purposes. If your learning space includes a reading corner or children's library, you want to make sure that you have cozy places for children to sit and read. When you have a room that is divided into a number of learning centers, it is also helpful to have different kinds of preschool chairs depending on which activities you have. Of course, you will also need some supportive preschool tables and chairs for projects and activities as well.
One creative option for your activity centers are cube chairs from Children's Factory. This vibrant preschool furniture can be used as chairs, tables or desks. Children can move cube chairs around themselves and even stack them on their own. They will fit well in a block center. Cube chairs can be ordered individually or in sets.
How can I create a calming classroom?
Wooden preschool chairs have a natural classic appeal that will fit in a reading corner or imaginative-play center. We have solid oak chairs with a natural wood grain as well as Educational Edge chairs, which feature solid wood construction with colored accents. This creates a winning combination of natural colors, solid wood strength and vibrant hues.
What kind of school chairs are good to put around an activity table?
The best preschool chairs to have around your activity tables have durable plastic seats and tough steel frames. Hertz Furniture has sturdy preschool chairs in a huge selection of colors. They are also available in a number of styles from various manufacturers including Academia and ECR4Kids. Finding the best preschool chairs for your classroom is easy with our wide and varied selection.
There are a number of important factors to consider when purchasing classroom chairs for preschools or daycares. Appropriately-sized toddlers chairs are a must-have for any early-childhood learning space. They enable children to practice proper form and posture as they develop writing skills. Supportive seating is also important, so make sure to take note of features such as a waterfall seat edge.
What kinds of chairs are good for toddlers?
If you work in a daycare center or early-childhood setting, you can probably benefit from toddler chairs. While children are still developing their balance and coordination, it is important to have seating that is low to the ground, and easy for them to get on and off of independently. Toddler-height chairs enable little ones to sit properly and minimize the risk of accidental falls.
Many of our school chairs can be stacked. Stackable chairs are convenient in any setting, however they are especially useful if you occasionally want to clear some extra floor space for special events or activities. Additionally, they facilitate space-saving storage and make it easier to clean the floor.
Hertz Furniture's preschool chairs are designed to give young learners a warm welcome to the formal educational environment. With appropriate classroom chairs, students will be able to sit for longer periods of time and remain focused. Whether you choose wooden chairs, cube seating or a classic design, your little ones are sure to benefit from the comfort and support of great school chairs.

With everything from office desks to school chairs conveniently organized on this one Made in USA page, you can definitely afford to buy American.
There are lots of reasons to look for school furniture that is made in the USA. If we want to teach our students to be patriotic, we need to demonstrate our own patriotism in the classroom. By furnishing a learning space with American made school desks, student chairs and bookcases, we send a message to children that we are proud of our country and our home-grown goods. They will understand that there are many reasons to be proud to be an American.
When you go shopping for furniture made in the USA, make sure to really check the label before purchasing anything. While some companies might claim that they are only using American labor, it is possible that certain steps in the assembly process are happening overseas, or that international parts are being used with the assembly process in America. It is important to demonstrate to manufacturers, the American public and the world that it does make a difference to consumers when they have furniture made in America.
There are tons of benefits to purchasing made in USA furniture. First of all, America has very strict standards regarding pollution in product production. When you buy American, you help keep a cleaner environment for the future of our children. When you purchase products without looking for the made in USA label, you don't know what they might contain or what kinds of conditions they were made under. Products from overseas might have been made under substandard working conditions, in factories which are causing tons of air pollution or using child labor.
American labor standards and worker conditions ensure that your office furniture is only produced under acceptable conditions. Made in the USA products have been manufactured through processes which take into account the safety of the workers, the quality of the products and the impact on the environment. When you buy American, you celebrate our country's independence and promote a self-sufficient economy.
When you buy domestically-produced furniture, you can feel good about your purchase. It's great to know that it was made under particular conditions, in compliance with strict standards. You also know who made it. The production of American made furniture creates jobs for our country's citizens. It is always important to support the American labor force, and buying furniture made in the USA is a mutually-beneficial way to do so.
At Hertz Furniture, we know what is important to the American consumer. With our wide array of American made furniture, you can be patriotic and still rely on the quality, style and reliability you have come to expect from Hertz Furniture. So next time you are looking for furniture made in the USA, you can simply come to this page to buy American. Need help choosing which great models will fit best in your space?

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I ordered these for my wedding invitations, and I am very happy with the result! The Ecru paper is very high quality and durable, and the thermography is so beautiful! I did my research by ordering a few samples first to figure out what paper and font I wanted, and I ended up with the perfect invitations!"
"This invitation is absolutely amazing! The quality is perfect. I could not have asked for a more perfect invite to set the tone for our formal wedding! And the custom charcoal color came out to match perfectly!"
"I ordered these in the gray (as shown). They were absolutely stunning! We were planning a classy event that was not casual but not super formal. These were the perfect invitation to capture the simple elegance we were going for. Our family and friends raved about them! Plus the thermography always adds a little something extra as opposed to flat ink on a page. (The ink is raised on the page - very sophisticated). They order was shipped quickly and the design team was wonderful to work with. When I edited the invitation, it looked perfect but then when I went to finalize it the text tightened up and the text didn't fill out the page (horizontally) as much. I mentioned this to the design team and they agreed and fixed it immediately. LOVE LOVE LOVE these. You can't go wrong."
"This is a beautiful invitation. The design is simple and elegant while the paper stock was heavy enough to be formal and the thermography made the lettering and design slightly raised. I ordered these invites in a rush shipment and the they arrived within 1 week. I had navy blue printing which looked great on the invites and response cards. I also removed the line about the reception and replaced it with 2 lines referring to our wedding website - it worked perfectly and the designer made sure it all fit without being crammed. I highly recommend this invitation."
"These invitations exceeded my expectations. The quality is amazing! Such understated elegance. I highly recommend these invitations, and all other products on WeddingPaperDivas!"

Bethel Park battles Mt. Lebanon
Levi Metheny tiptoes into the end zone for a touchdown during Bethel Park's 38-0 victory over Plum in the Southeastern Conference opener for both clubs. Metheny scored three times in the win.
Eleanor Bailey / The Almanac
For a first game, Jeff Metheny conceded Bethel Park played well in its 38-0 victory against Plum. Plus, the Black Hawks enter their Southeastern Conference showdown Sept. 6 against Mt. Lebanon in good condition.
In the huddle after the win over the Mustangs, Metheny told his troops, that yes, they are 1-0 and that's good. "But, we've got to win next week."
If history is an indicator, Friday's contest is pivotal because the winner emerged as co-champions of the conference with Upper St. Clair. Lebo defeated a Bethel Park team decimated by injuries, 17-7. The contest saw Levi Metheny, then a freshman, emerge as the Hawks' starting quarterback for the remainder of the campaign.
Metheny pointed how this year's confrontation is a little different coming off another win against the Mustangs. "The Plum win gives us confidence," he said. "We didn't get hurt and we came out of it healthy."
But, he added, "We've got to get better and continue to step up and perform. We did some good things but we are not firing on all cylinders."
The only thing firing on all cylinders for Mt. Lebanon in its season opener was North Allegheny. Despite returning only three starters from a team that has won three straight PIAA championships, the Tigers thumped Lebo, 55-7, in a non-conference clash. One of the few bright spots for the Blue Devils was Jake Rolfsen's 16-yard TD run late in the game, when the mercy rule was invoked at the 10-minute mark of the third quarter.
Metheny pointed out, that though devastating, the defeat would not factor into Lebo's psyche for the upcoming clash, nor will it factor into the Blue Devils' ability to bounce back.
"Lebo had a big loss last year to NA," he said recalling that 39-14 unfavorable decision. "It doesn't matter. They are going to come back strong from their defeat."
Mike Melnyk and guys like Penn State recruit, Troy Apke, and standout linemen like Alex Bookser and Matt Hoffman, who are both major Division I prospects, are a few of the reasons for Metheny's statement.
"Lebo has good players. They are well-coached," added Metheny of Melnyk's squad. "They played us hard here last year and now we have to go over there."
BP enters the Devils' den with plenty of poise and playing Plum.
For starters the defense excelled, forcing five turnovers. Alex Minton, Jake Lewis and Chris Papalia all recovered fumbles. Lewis and Papalia also intercepted passes.
"Defense did a great job," Metheny said. "I'm proud of that group."
Metheny was equally pleased with his special teams as well as the kicking unit that features long-snapper Matthew Carr, holder Steve Evrard and placekicker Danny Christenson, who kicked five extra points. After the Lewis fumble recovery, Christenson also connected on a 27-yard field goal with two seconds left in the second stanza, a quarter in which BP racked up 26 points.
"Special teams did well for us and Papalia is a real weapon for us," Metheny said.
"Plus those three do well together," he added of the kicking unit. Danny does a good job. Matt is dependable and Steve is a good holder."
"We are team-oriented," Metheny stressed. "We go as our special teams do. Our kickers and punters did well. We go as our defense goes. We got turnovers."
And while the Hawks outgained Plum, 255-74, they were not that impressive in the backfield. In fact, the young Metheny led the ground game. The sophomore signal caller gained 66 yards on 11 carries. Metheny also scored three times, twice on 1-yard scampers into the end zone and once for a 10-yard score that ignited the Hawks and snapped a 0-0 deadlock 30 seconds into the second stanza.
Zach Enick, who led BP last year with nearly 600 yards on the ground, recorded a 1-yard TD and Minton supplied an 8-yard score.
"We did good things but we did not run the ball with the tailback well enough. The way you need to do in this league in order to be successful," Metheny said. "We need to run better. We do that, then I think we've got a chance to be special."

Right when you think Tiger Woods is down and out, having swing problems, rumors of continued knee pain, family acting as a distraction, he goes and does something like this. Once again, Tiger Woods has adequately proven why he's not only the best golfer in the world, he's the most exciting by a mile. That's right...Tiger Woods took home the trophy this weekend at the Memorial Tournament in Dublin, Ohio by following up a shaky first two rounds with a dominating 68 in Round 3 and an even more impressive 65 to close out the tournament and take it by a stroke.
Win To Silence U.S. Open Critics
The good news for Tiger is that this win, although it was a close one, can finally silence the critics that have been mumbling and worrying that he's not going to be physically or mentally fit enough to defend his title at the upcoming U.S. Open at Bethpage Black. Looks like the fact that he's capable of an extremely high-charged comeback and a final round -7 might just be the answer all those critics were looking for. Watching his play on Sunday told us all one thing: Tiger is NEVER out.
Tiger Felt Confident
When asked about his play, and his mindset during the final round, Tiger had this to say, according to reports:
"I knew I could do this...I was close to winning, but the game wasn't quite there when I really needed it on Sunday. I rectified that."
The thing that struck us, while watching his final round performance, was he seemed to re-find the accuracy that he'd been missing the past few tournaments. He hit it where he aimed, he struck it well and at the U.S. Open, that is going to mean everything.
Tiger Is Back?
How will he do at the Open, that remains to be seen. All we know is it's good to see Tiger playing like Tiger again, and the Sunday fire back into his game. Now, we really can't wait for the Open. The countdown has begun.

Finding Hidden History with Metal Detectors
By Libby Feil
Many metal detector buffs enjoy searching for hidden historical items such as old coins, farming implements, and interesting machine parts. To do this, it helps to know the history of land in the city. Where were the old businesses and factories? Where were parks once located? Schools?
To help these folks out, here are some locations of old factories, schools, playing fields, and parks from me and County Historian John Kovach. Happy hunting!
East Race business district, along both sides of the East Race (from The Pointe at St. Joseph apartments north to Seitz Park). Many factories and businesses needing water power located here starting in the 1840s. Businesses that were situated here at one time or another include Singer Sewing Machine, where wooden sewing machine cases were made; Knoblock & Ginz, flour and feed millers; Kahn Manufacturing Company, shirt makers; Stephenson Underwear Mills, producers of union suits and other woolen underthings; and J. B. Haberle, machinists.
Greenstocking Park, on Napier a block east of St. Stephen's Church. Greenstocking was the first enclosed baseball stadium built in northern Indiana (erected 1878). It later became the site of Laurel School and then Central Catholic High School. The site is currently empty, with old steps still in place but no buildings still existing.
Singer Park, off of Western Avenue near Goodwill Industries. This was another old baseball park, built in 1913 and used until the mid-1950s. The Louvered Door restaurant at 1622 Western Avenue sits on what used to be center field.
Railroad right-of-way and New Deal Works Progress Administration project sites, now the Riverwalk along the eastern side of the St. Joseph River in South Bend. Although this area is now a paved path, the berms on either side of the trail are unpaved and may turn up souvenirs of past activities there.
Playland Park, bounded by Lincoln Way, Ironwood, the St. Joseph River, and the Twyckenham Bridge. This amusement park drew huge crowds to its rides and attractions. Part of this area is now occupied by the Don Medow car dealership, but part of it is vacant. The empty brushy area on the far side of the Indiana University South Bend Bridge over the St. Joseph River used to be the Playland golf course.
You can use many of the resources we have in Local & Family History Services to search for additional hunting grounds. Even without coming into our room in Main Library, you can find the locations of old businesses and parks by looking at historical maps and photographs of and books about St. Joseph County by looking at some resources online. Try the 1866 Map of South Bend from the Library of Congress (LC), the 1874 Map of South Bend from LC, the 1875 St. Joseph County Atlas from the St. Joseph County Public Library, the 1890 Map of South Bend from LC, the 1936 St. Joseph County Platbook from SJCPL, and the Digital Sanborn Fire Insurance Maps of Indiana from 1867-1970. (The Sanborn Maps are an especially useful resource since they show the exact shape, size, and location of all buildings (factories, homes, churches, schools, sheds, barns, outbuildings, and more) in a city. With your valid SJCPL library card, you can view these maps at home; otherwise, they are available at all SJCPL library branches.
The Mishawaka-Penn-Harris Public Library/Hannah Lindahl Children's Museum Photograph Archive is another great place to find clues. Search for the name of a business, a street, a school, or anything else of interest. Most of the photographs here are of Mishawaka locations. Take a look at the South Bend Area Genealogical Society Area Photographs collection as well, to see photos and postcards from Mishawaka, South Bend, and Notre Dame.
Finally, you'll learn a lot by reading through our digitized book collection. Our 1875 St. Joseph County Atlas, 1910 South Bend and Mishawaka Elks Convention Book, and ca. 1910 South Bend YMCA Book should be particularly valuable. The 1875 atlas contains histories of local communities, including many that no longer exist independently (such as Plainfield and West Troy), as well as maps showing land ownership and usage. The 1910 Elks and YMCA books give the locations of many old factories and other businesses, in both South Bend and Mishawaka.
If you have any suggestions of other interesting places to hunt, or if you have questions about how to find out more, please contact Local & Family History Services at 574-282-4621.
