'Lake Living' topics for Dewart Lake Association

By JIM BRODERICK Guest Writer Saying that it is “critical for those of us who live on or near water to be concerned,” outgoing president Dick McDaniel opened the annual meeting of the Dewart Lake Protective Association. After the reading and approval of last year’s minutes, McDaniel proceeded to introduce four speakers, each of whom would give a presentation about a pertinent aspect of lake living. The first speaker was Jed Pearson, a biologist at Tri-Lakes department of natural resources. Pearson spoke about the methods and procedures of stocking area lakes, and specifically the results of Dewart Lake stocking efforts. Saying “Dewart is an excellent lake to do testing in,” Pearson told those present that the data he has available indicates that the survival rate of test fish is directly proportional to their size. “The bigger the fish, the better their chances of survival,” he said. Pearson also said that there has been an unexplainble increase in the number of Northern Pike in Dewart Lake. He added, however, that though the Northern Pike is a predatory fish, it poses no problem to the rest of the lake’s aquatic population. The next speaker, Dr. Jim Bohlen, who is president of the Kosciusko County Lakes Preservation and Development Council, addressed the need for greater concern by the State of Indiana about water quality. “We have potential water problems in the state,” he said, noting the state is finally doing something about it. “They’re doing more than they were five years ago, but it’s not a lot. It certainly is not enough,” he said. Bohlen strongly urged everyone present to have their wells tested. “Don’t be afraid to test your wells,” he said. "It’s better to do it now before anyone gets sick.” He ended his talk by noting that there is no real reason to worry about the quality of Dewart Lake water, “We have never had a hot spot with bacteria in the lake.

OUT-GOING PRESIDENT — Pictured is Dick McDaniel, outgoingpresident of the Dewart Lake Protective Association. McDaniel presided over the annual meeting held Sunday, June 2, at Harper’s Beach Bar. In his remarks, McDaniel stressed the importance of remaining aware and concerned about the condition of Dewart Lake.

We’re not overly concerned with nitrates, phosphates, and herbicides. The levels have always been low,” he said. Drinking And Boating The next speaker was John Custer, a member of the sheriff’s reserve, who spoke about the laws pertaining to intoxication while boating. Custer said that the same laws will apply to boats that now apply to automobiles. He noted that the county sheriff has been patrolling the lake for the last three years, and since that time, no fatal injuries or major accidents have occured. The final speaker was Jay Robert Kreider, business manager at Goshen College. Kreider spoke about a letter he received from the Indiana State Board of Health, informing him of possible violations at Musquabuck Park, a location privately operated by Goshen College. He informed those present that he had received an extension to study the circumstances and determine what would be necessary to correct the potential problems. New Officers The final order of business was the election of officers and the board of directors. The following is a list of the new office holders: Al Eades — president Jerry Dain — vice president Linda Jamiel — secretary/ treasurer Elected to the board of directors were Bob and Ruby Perdiue,

Zero Visability As far as driving was concerned, County Sheriff’s Office Captain Ron Robinson said there were no major vehicle accidents despite zero visibility. “With everything blowing the way it was Friday, we were real fortunate,” said Robinson. “We usually get dust storms in this area, but they usually last an hour. This was really something severe and we were very lucky nothing serious happened on the roads,” he added. “Everything was in a whirlwind.”

Deb Smith gains experience from KCH

While most people understand that Kosciusko Community Hospital is an acute care medical facility, few people realize that KCH is also a teaching hospital, in the respect that students from many mediqal-related training fields gain valued experience within the hospital walls. One such student this spring has been Deb Smith, North Webster, who received her bachelor’s degree in pharmacy from Purdue University on May 19. Miss Smith spent six weeks as an “extern” in the KCH Pharmacy immediately prior to her graduation gaining “practical experience” in the dispensing of medications to patients. “I was exposed to the interaction of the pharmacy with all of the other hospital departments,” she said, “and it really helped me to gain insight into what proceeds a patient’s dismissal, and the reasons for some of the prescriptions, physicians give patients after they are sent home. That experience will be very helpful when I enter the retail pharmaceutical field.” Miss Smith gained her first exposure to the Unit Dose method of dispensing medications at KCH, “And now I understand how it helps cut not only the pharmacy’s time-per-patient, but how it also gives the nursing department more time for other duties. It also provides the pharmacy staff with more time to work on drug reviews and other pharmeceutical duties.” Miss Smith, a 1980 graduate of Wawasee High School, spent six weeks in practical retail training at Hook’s Drugs in Syracuse before going to KCH, and also gained practical work experience at Wishard Hospital, Indianapolis, making rounds with physicians, reading charts and making suggestions on therapy. “My experience at KCH, however, gave me a chance to see and better understand how I-V antibiotics work and to see the drug response,” Miss Smith said. “It will be great help to me because I now understand, from a practical standpoint, how drug regimes change from hospital needs to home needs. It will help me better answer questions from people getting prescriptions from a retail outlet regarding. their prescription drugs.”, Presently “taking a rest’’after her schooling, Miss Smith will be entering the retail drug sales field as either an assistant or pharmacist with a chain store in the near future. ,

For many of the students, KCH will eventually become their place of employment; for others, like miss Smith, the experience is one that will provide them with understanding and insight into the health care of the public outside of an acute care situation.
