Forks County Line Shipshe Youth Gets State Recognition Rachel Weaver, an eighth grade home-schooled student and the daughter of Robert and Melany Weaver of Shipshewana, recently received the Youth Power and Hope Award from REMC/REC (Rural Electric Cooperatives). Rachel was chosen from youth across the state of Indiana that have shown commitment to their community through a passion of giving back. Her family’s home is served electrically by REMC and her service to her community includes, teaching piano to a blind 34 year-old woman, helping teach after school Bible study once a week at two different schools, and mailing cards on Veterans’ Day and serving Christmas dinner to veterans and their families as part of the Children of the American Revolution. “There are so many things I can be doing with my time. Many people tend to be selfish and think only about themselves. If they would open their eyes and hearts they could see the good that comes from serving others,” said Rachel. She continued, “I know how much it’s changed my life, by helping others, and I know it’s not all about me!” In Shipshewana North Village just east of SR 5 Hrs: Mon.-Thur. 8-5:30, Fri. 8-7:00, Sat. 8-4:30 Authentic Mexican Food & American Breakfast • Daily Lunch Specials • Come & enjoy the Chimi Acapulco! $414 95 $38900 PS-32 Chainsaw $20995 Fry’s Repair Shop • 24.5 cc • Powerful OHV 4-stroke engine • Powerful air flow $19995 $16995 • Low fuel consumption and low emissions • Converts to vacuum • Great for general-duty PB-7601.4 Blower • 32.0cc Engine Displacement • 1.35 kW/1.8 BHP Power Rating • 14" Standard Guide Bar • 9.02 lbs. ! $199 Photo Submitted 110 Redman Dr. Topeka, IN 46571 260-593-0173 PB-251.4 Blower PS-510 Chainsaw pg 48 · The Hometown Treasure · January ‘13 With locations in Shipshewana and Middlebury to serve you best.
