Spurgeon tells Rotary of early Lake Wawasee

Wiley (“Bill”) Spurgeon, Jr., president of the Wawasee Property Owners Association, spoke to the Syracuse-Wawasee Rotary Club on the early days of the lakes area when it was a primative site and the home of the Miami Indians. In about 1830 there was an emigration from the Elkhart area to the lakes and a reservation was set up including the east end of Wawasee which was called the Flatbelly or Chief Papakeechie Reservation for the then chief of the Miamis. This reservation was split up and sold upon his death. The railroads appeared in the 1870 s and with them the advent of the first newspaper in the area which was called the Syracuse Enterprise. Spurgeon had a copy of the paper which talked about the fact that there were five positions open in the town for jobs; as it was the January edition, it talked of the start of the ice harvest and there was an ad for a method “to break the opium habit. With the advent of the railroads the complexion of the area changed and the lakes became sporting lakes. The era of the hotel started with many hotels being built on the lakes. Trains were scheduled from the cities to the lakes for those who cared to come to the

area for a week end. There were three railroads which served the area; the B&O, the WawaseeMilford RR which served the concrete plants, and a tourist line which ran from the current railroad station along the west and south shores of Lake Wawasee to the hotel site where the South Shore Condominiums now stand. At the turn of the century the Portland Cement Company operated in the area dredging marl out of Wawasee for their product. An agreement was reached between the company and the Wawasee Protective Society that no more than two dredges would operate on the lake during June, July, August and September and then only in “remote areas.”

Demand for skills increase as career schools grow

Thousands of students each year are demanding training for some of the decade’s “hot” career fields — such as computers, electronics and health care. And, many of them are turning to private career schools to learn the skills that are in demand. Over one million students enrolled in private career schools in 1982. At the same time, the National Association of Trade and Technical Schools, NATTS, which represents acccredited postsecondary schools, reports enrollments up nearly 15 per cent. “There are probably 100 different reasons why our industry is enjoying such a great influx of students,” said Mike Freedland, president of NATTS, “but the real key comes down to jobs.” Today many individuals, including college graduates, have difficulty finding job opportunities because they lack job skills employers want. For many others, however, changes in technology, product demands, demographics and a variety of other economic factors have brought great prosperity. “Americans are in for a decade of sweeping demographic, economic and geographic realignment,” Freedland said. “Future opportunities for the unskilled will be very limited while No cracks Prevent leather furniture from cracking by polishing regularly with a cream made of one part vinegar and two parts linseed oil. Age or ageless No one really knows the age of the human race, but all agree that it is old enough to know better. — Sentinel, Onawa, lowa.

The 1920 s brought the automobile and paved roads and channelling of the lake. A 1928 directory of the lake shows 446 residents on Wawasee, the current directory shows 813 pier numbers which include the condominiums and other multihousing units. The hotel era had been dispossed. From the 1940 s through the 1960 s more channelling occurred and the lakes population continued to grow. Later, channelling was stopped and the lakes area develop into what it is today. Spurgeon also said that this is a dynamic area. It will continue to grow and develop as more and more people make this their permanent residence.

skilled workers will find employment opportunities are numerous.” Although today’s emphasis on job training and the increasing demand for skilled workers has made vocational education one of the fastest growing sectors in US education, representatives in the trade and technical school industry continue to look ahead. “Our biggest challenge is keeping up,” Freedland said. “We can’t afford to be looking back.”
