Jack Kemp loved to say. ·'w ith the kind of people most Republicans have never met." '" By the time Kemp died last week at 73, he was no longer a force in the Republican Party, but the warning contained .in his joke resonates more than ever. Du~ing his 18 years in the House, rerresenting the suburbs o Buffalo, N.Y., and his failed run for vice president in 1996, Kemp preached the gospel of inclusion, not exclusion. He wanted the .. big tent" of the Republican Party to , cover the entire football field where he once starred as a quarterback for the Buffalo Bills. The black linemen who blocked for him and the blue-collar workers whu cheered for him should all have a place in the GOP. But as se·n. Olympia Snowe, a Maine Republican, has noted, Kemp's old party is today more like an umbrella than a tent, ''under which ·only a select few are worthy to stand.'" And New York, Kemp\ adopted home, reflects that decline. In · 1980, the Empire State supported Ronald Reagan and elected a Republican, AI D' Amato , to the Senate.

The quarterback and·the lineman Former Republican vicepresidential candidate, congressman, pro-football player, Cabinet secretary, businessman and humanitarian Jack Kemp is being remembered as a champion for supply-side economics, social equality and a happy warrior. He should also be remembered as a man who could move the goalpost on a range of issues, from helping the homeless and those in public liousing find their path to home ownership to working with his former colleagues in professional football to assist them with their retirement. I long admired Kemp as a professional athlete but came to know him as a compassionate conservative who did not hesitate to march alongside those who wanted ro see an end to apartheid in South Africa or work to provide voting rights to the residents of the District of Columbia. I also knew him as a man who cared deeply about his fellow teammates on and off the foQtball field. ' Whether it was on the gridiron ur in the corridors nf power.

Jack Kemp loved to say. ·'w ith the kind of people most Republicans have never met." '" By the time Kemp died last week at 73, he was no longer a force in the Republican Party, but the warning contained .in his joke resonates more than ever. Du~ing his 18 years in the House, rerresenting the suburbs o Buffalo, N.Y., and his failed run for vice president in 1996, Kemp preached the gospel of inclusion, not exclusion. He wanted the .. big tent" of the Republican Party to , cover the entire football field where he once starred as a quarterback for the Buffalo Bills. The black linemen who blocked for him and the blue-collar workers whu cheered for him should all have a place in the GOP. But as se·n. Olympia Snowe, a Maine Republican, has noted, Kemp's old party is today more like an umbrella than a tent, ''under which ·only a select few are worthy to stand.'" And New York, Kemp\ adopted home, reflects that decline. In · 1980, the Empire State supported Ronald Reagan and elected a Republican, AI D' Amato , to the Senate.

The quarterback and·the lineman Former Republican vicepresidential candidate, congressman, pro-football player, Cabinet secretary, businessman and humanitarian Jack Kemp is being remembered as a champion for supply-side economics, social equality and a happy warrior. He should also be remembered as a man who could move the goalpost on a range of issues, from helping the homeless and those in public liousing find their path to home ownership to working with his former colleagues in professional football to assist them with their retirement. I long admired Kemp as a professional athlete but came to know him as a compassionate conservative who did not hesitate to march alongside those who wanted ro see an end to apartheid in South Africa or work to provide voting rights to the residents of the District of Columbia.

Miller,21-4 BWALTEAS 0 MYDAILYTAIBUNE.COM p.m. · GALLIPOLIS -- The Holzer Center for Cancer Care (HCCC) will continue its community outreach efforts to educate women about breast cancer thanks to a grant from Susan G. Kamen for the Cure® Columbus Affiliate. . Susan G. Kamen for the Cure® is the world'.s largest grassroots organization of breast cancer survivors and activists · dedicated to finding a cure for the disease. The organization was founded in 1982 by Nancy G. Brinker, who made a promise to her ·dying sister Susan Kamen that she would work to find a cure for breast cancer. Since then, the organization has generated more than $1 billion for cancer research. HCCC Executive Director Ken S. Moore said this is the thii·d consecutive year that the Center has received a Kamen grant to fund "Operation Red Zone: Strengthening the Safety Net.'' HCCC's breast cancer screening and education out- · 'reach to women in ·Galli a, Jackson and Vinton counties. . "We are reaching out to patients who are uninsured or underinsured that are under 50-years old," Moore said. "There are no programs available for that particular age demographic, so the Kamen fu11ding is.vital to our outreach." Moore said the Kamen grant allows mammograms, breast ultrasounds and other diagnostic testing to be provided at no charge to the patients. All testing is conducted by Holzer Medical Center-Jackson and Holzer Clinic. Kamen funds are also used to conduct health fairs, screenings and other well ness events in Gallia, Jackson and Vinton counties. Additionally, the grant helps HCCC maintain the toll-free Holzer Breast Health Hotline (877-422-2396). In 2007, according to Moore, "Operation Red Zone" reached I ,853 women in its coverage area and administered 100 diagnostic tests. Last year, a total of I ,830 women benefited from the outreach and 168 diagnostic tests were completed. Additionally, 24 health fairs and other public events were held in the three counties. · "We're looking to do bigger and better things in 2009," Moore said. "Our two nurse navigators are now certified in screening breast examinations, So they can f!O out in the field ·and do examinations at our health fa1rs .and other events. We're doing computer-based cancer risk. assessmerits at all of our health fairs. And we're distributing ill formation · from· the Komen organization about 'breast health and breast care." Dr. Alice A. Dachowski, MD, FACS, is the project director for "Operation Red Zone ." Dr. Dachowski is a general surgeon at Holzer Clinic and Holzer Medical CenterGallipolis. Moore said she has been a.tireless advocate for HCCC's cancer education outreach in southeast Ohio. : "Dr. Dachowski is a wonderful help," he said. ''She works at our health fairs. She provides guidance and exper. tise. She is a valuable asset to our outreach programming." Moore is part of the Kamen Teatn at HCCC. That team is comprised of Oncology Nurse Navigators Tammy Ellison , RN , LPN, and Diane Young , BSN, OCN, and HCCC Marketing Representative Beth Robinson. . . "The Kamen Team oversees the grant funds and their distribution," said Moore. "We also organize all of the events funded through the grant. Our staff really takes this outreach to heart. We are dedicated not only to taking the fight to cancer, but winning the war." 1 SEOAL Day of Champions of-~ GAI.UPOLJS- URG donates to C . ' Sunday, May 10,2009 loCAL St.1JE.DUI.E . . .

Miller,21-4 BWALTEAS 0 MYDAILYTAIBUNE.COM p.m. · GALLIPOLIS -- The Holzer Center for Cancer Care (HCCC) will continue its community outreach efforts to educate women about breast cancer thanks to a grant from Susan G. Kamen for the Cure® Columbus Affiliate. . Susan G. Kamen for the Cure® is the world'.s largest grassroots organization of breast cancer survivors and activists · dedicated to finding a cure for the disease. The organization was founded in 1982 by Nancy G. Brinker, who made a promise to her ·dying sister Susan Kamen that she would work to find a cure for breast cancer. Since then, the organization has generated more than $1 billion for cancer research. HCCC Executive Director Ken S. Moore said this is the thii·d consecutive year that the Center has received a Kamen grant to fund "Operation Red Zone: Strengthening the Safety Net.'' HCCC's breast cancer screening and education out- · 'reach to women in ·Galli a, Jackson and Vinton counties. . "We are reaching out to patients who are uninsured or underinsured that are under 50-years old," Moore said. "There are no programs available for that particular age demographic, so the Kamen fu11ding is.vital to our outreach." Moore said the Kamen grant allows mammograms, breast ultrasounds and other diagnostic testing to be provided at no charge to the patients. All testing is conducted by Holzer Medical Center-Jackson and Holzer Clinic. Kamen funds are also used to conduct health fairs, screenings and other well ness events in Gallia, Jackson and Vinton counties. Additionally, the grant helps HCCC maintain the toll-free Holzer Breast Health Hotline (877-422-2396). In 2007, according to Moore, "Operation Red Zone" reached I ,853 women in its coverage area and administered 100 diagnostic tests. Last year, a total of I ,830 women benefited from the outreach and 168 diagnostic tests were completed. Additionally, 24 health fairs and other public events were held in the three counties. · "We're looking to do bigger and better things in 2009," Moore said. "Our two nurse navigators are now certified in screening breast examinations, So they can f!O out in the field ·and do examinations at our health fa1rs .and other events. We're doing computer-based cancer risk. assessmerits at all of our health fairs. And we're distributing ill formation · from· the Komen organization about 'breast health and breast care." Dr. Alice A. Dachowski, MD, FACS, is the project director for "Operation Red Zone ." Dr. Dachowski is a general surgeon at Holzer Clinic and Holzer Medical CenterGallipolis. Moore said she has been a.tireless advocate for HCCC's cancer education outreach in southeast Ohio. : "Dr. Dachowski is a wonderful help," he said. ''She works at our health fairs. She provides guidance and exper. tise. She is a valuable asset to our outreach programming." Moore is part of the Kamen Teatn at HCCC. That team is comprised of Oncology Nurse Navigators Tammy Ellison , RN , LPN, and Diane Young , BSN, OCN, and HCCC Marketing Representative Beth Robinson. . . "The Kamen Team oversees the grant funds and their distribution," said Moore. "We also organize all of the events funded through the grant. Our staff really takes this outreach to heart. We are dedicated not only to taking the fight to cancer, but winning the war." 1 SEOAL Day of Champions of-~ GAI.UPOLJS- URG donates to C . ' Sunday, May 10,2009 loCAL St.1JE.DUI.E . . .

It was designed by John Morton who was the designer of the cross country trail for the Olympics held at Salt Lake City. Between 10 and 12 feet wide the trail winds through a hilly wooded area behind the Meigs High and Middle School campus for · about five miles. The work going on now is . mostly an "in-kind" contribution on the part of Scott Williams. With bulldozer and other equipment he is cutting through the woods to make way for a grassy trllil which is expected to be · completed and ready for use in about two months. . As for the stadium, the goal of the Foundation is to have it completed and .ready for use in 4010. Since the consolidation of high schools in Harrisonville, Middleport, Pomeroy, . and Rutland, football games have been held in the Bob Roberts Stadium in · Pomeroy. Having a place at the high school for games has long been the dream of. alumni and school administration. · Cost for .constructiqn of the new stadi urn ·and the trail has been estimated by the architect to be about $3 )llillion. At a recent meeting of the Meigs Local Board of Education, Steve Musser, Foundation treasurer, gave a financial report on the project. He noted that $410,748 had been given in cash and securities, that $1.309.250 has been pledged by corpo- currently under discussion tion, will be an energythemed playground develrations, and that $500,000 with the School Board . was coming into the project The trail is being de vel- · oped with funding. from lhrou~h in-kind services, oped on acreage owned by American Electric Power. bringmg the total to Meigs Local and 76 acres of ''As for completion of a $2,219,998. land purchased by the new st'adium at the high A gift from Edith Jividen Foundation from the Bartels school everything hinges on estate of $100,000 and the .and Story families and raising the rest of the moner, probable sale of Bob located just south of Meigs needed for the construction,' Roberts field for something Local property.

It was designed by John Morton who was the designer of the cross country trail for the Olympics held at Salt Lake City. Between 10 and 12 feet wide the trail winds through a hilly wooded area behind the Meigs High and Middle School campus for · about five miles. The work going on now is . mostly an "in-kind" contribution on the part of Scott Williams. With bulldozer and other equipment he is cutting through the woods to make way for a grassy trllil which is expected to be · completed and ready for use in about two months. . As for the stadium, the goal of the Foundation is to have it completed and .ready for use in 4010. Since the consolidation of high schools in Harrisonville, Middleport, Pomeroy, . and Rutland, football games have been held in the Bob Roberts Stadium in · Pomeroy. Having a place at the high school for games has long been the dream of. alumni and school administration. · Cost for .constructiqn of the new stadi urn ·and the trail has been estimated by the architect to be about $3 )llillion. At a recent meeting of the Meigs Local Board of Education, Steve Musser, Foundation treasurer, gave a financial report on the project. He noted that $410,748 had been given in cash and securities, that $1.309.250 has been pledged by corpo- currently under discussion tion, will be an energythemed playground develrations, and that $500,000 with the School Board . was coming into the project The trail is being de vel- · oped with funding. from lhrou~h in-kind services, oped on acreage owned by American Electric Power. bringmg the total to Meigs Local and 76 acres of ''As for completion of a $2,219,998. land purchased by the new st'adium at the high A gift from Edith Jividen Foundation from the Bartels school everything hinges on estate of $100,000 and the .and Story families and raising the rest of the moner, probable sale of Bob located just south of Meigs needed for the construction,' Roberts field for something Local property.

The Rio Grande students attended the AMA International Collegiate Conference in New Orleans in March. The conference is an excellent opportunity for students to talk with college students from around the U.S. and Puerto Rico about the work they are doing , and it is a chance for them to · hear from and meet with marketing professionals. · The conference is also a time when .awards are ·presented to chapters which have excelled, and this is the third year in a row th at the Rio Grande students were rec· ognized for their achievements. Eight Rio . Grande students and chapter faculty advisor Wesley Thoene attended the conference. The students who attended the conference were John Clary. Seth Colegrove, Patricia Garcia, Jennifer Giles, Cameron · Muncy, Brian Northup, Katie Peters and Whitney Thoene. · " I liked meeting with and hearing from the -different speakers at the conference," said Clary, a sophomore from Chillicothe who is studying marketing ·and business administration. The speakers were very interesting. and Clary said he learned a lot from the experience. Marketing professionals from large retail companies, professional sports franchises and even television networks all took part in the conference. GarCia, a junior from Jackson who is studying business administration, said she was particularly interested in learning more about the "Green Marketing" ideas discussed at the conference. This refers to mar- keting with a focus on environmental responsibility. During the conference. the Rio Grande chapter received three top awards for Outstanding Fundraising, Outstanding Membership and Outstanding Communications. The .students are involved in several fundraising projects throughout the school year, and this year the projects included the raffling off of a marketing plan for a local busit:ss. The winner of the raffle receives free ssistance from the Rio Gmnde studenL in crafting a marketing plan. The students are also involved in several marketing projects and events throughout the year, including their work .o n the Evans School of Business Visitation Day at R,io .Grande. The Visitation Day was very popular this year, and the AMA students assisted throughout the day. The AMA chapter at Rio Grande is also involved in community service projects throughout the year. One project in particular this year involved having students in local schools write letters to U.S. troops overseas. The goal was to have 300 letters written. but the project ended up with more than 4,000 letters being sent by students in squthem Ohio to military troops around the world. . Clary organized the project and said he was very impressed with the response from · local students to the letter-writing campaign. . · Thoene is proud of the work that all of the AMA students did throughout the ·year, and said that the students are setting even higher goals for their work next year.

The Rio Grande students attended the AMA International Collegiate Conference in New Orleans in March. The conference is an excellent opportunity for students to talk with college students from around the U.S. and Puerto Rico about the work they are doing , and it is a chance for them to · hear from and meet with marketing professionals. · The conference is also a time when .awards are ·presented to chapters which have excelled, and this is the third year in a row th at the Rio Grande students were rec· ognized for their achievements. Eight Rio . Grande students and chapter faculty advisor Wesley Thoene attended the conference. The students who attended the conference were John Clary. Seth Colegrove, Patricia Garcia, Jennifer Giles, Cameron · Muncy, Brian Northup, Katie Peters and Whitney Thoene. · " I liked meeting with and hearing from the -different speakers at the conference," said Clary, a sophomore from Chillicothe who is studying marketing ·and business administration. The speakers were very interesting. and Clary said he learned a lot from the experience. Marketing professionals from large retail companies, professional sports franchises and even television networks all took part in the conference. GarCia, a junior from Jackson who is studying business administration, said she was particularly interested in learning more about the "Green Marketing" ideas discussed at the conference. This refers to mar- keting with a focus on environmental responsibility. During the conference. the Rio Grande chapter received three top awards for Outstanding Fundraising, Outstanding Membership and Outstanding Communications. The .students are involved in several fundraising projects throughout the school year, and this year the projects included the raffling off of a marketing plan for a local busit:ss. The winner of the raffle receives free ssistance from the Rio Gmnde studenL in crafting a marketing plan. The students are also involved in several marketing projects and events throughout the year, including their work .o n the Evans School of Business Visitation Day at R,io .Grande. The Visitation Day was very popular this year, and the AMA students assisted throughout the day. The AMA chapter at Rio Grande is also involved in community service projects throughout the year. One project in particular this year involved having students in local schools write letters to U.S. troops overseas. The goal was to have 300 letters written. but the project ended up with more than 4,000 letters being sent by students in squthem Ohio to military troops around the world. . Clary organized the project and said he was very impressed with the response from · local students to the letter-writing campaign. . · Thoene is proud of the work that all of the AMA students did throughout the ·year, and said that the students are setting even higher goals for their work next year.
