Imagine having a presentation every day for a week, having to prepare for it after most of the world is in bed and be prepared to present your thoughts early the next morning. Or having to write a paper or a story or a speech every night and be prepared to present it the next morning.
Then imagine when you are presenting your work there is a small video camera in the back of the room recording every gesture, pause and word of your presentation.
And when you and all of your peers have concluded with your presentation an ‘expert’ who has sat quietly in the back of the room has taken pages of notes from the morning of presentations and then shares his comments with the group.
This is exactly what took place last week at Country Lake Christian Retreat in Henryville. A group of young preachers came together at this beautiful spiritual setting for a history making preacher camp. The students were put in small groups where they were able to learn from each other and collaborate with seasoned preachers.

Clark County Sheriff, Danny Rodden, is sponsoring a conference on teen violence.
Sheriff Rodden has invited author and speaker Phil Chalmers to Clark County for this presentation, “Inside the Mind of a Teen Killer”.
Phil Chalmers has been studying youth culture and juvenile homicide for over 20 years, and is a former police chaplain. He has written many books and produced two documentaries on youth culture. What separates Chalmers from other speakers and writers is he actually speaks to the killers themselves, as well as their victims and relatives. He also spends considerable time with law enforcement and investigators to find out what really happened, how we could have avoided this tragedy, study what the police did right, and learn what the police could have done different.
Chalmers wants to teach us “Why Today’s Teens Kill”, “What Motivates Them”, and “What Warning Signs”, you should be looking for.
For more information concerning Phil Chalmers and his programs, go to www.philchalmers.com.

I can't say enough about the kids and their effort in this tournament, especially tonight. It definitely wasn't easy and we really had to battle to win. Salem is a good ball club and my hat is off to them for a hard fought contest tonight. We are extremely excited to get this victory for our players, fans, coaches, and our school. It took everyone on our roster to make this happen and I just can't say enough about the guys and how proud I am of each and every one of them," stated Coach Ricky Romans.

On May 21, Charlestown Reserve Officer Josh Campbell received an anonymous tip by a local business employee that there was possible drug activity taking place on the premises.
Upon Officer Campbell’s arrival he met with an employee who advised that a female had entered the business to purchase an item. While attempting to pay for the item the female dumped out her purse in order to obtain additional monies when a bag of approximately 3.1 grams of suspected crack cocaine fell out of her purse and onto the counter.
The employee explained to Officer Campbell that the female (who was later identified as 26 year-old Ruth E. Daulton of Charlestown), had not immediately discovered that the substance had fallen out of her purse until she went to leave the business in her car. The employee explained to Officer Campbell that Daulton began to search her vehicle and purse for the item when Police were called.
Daulton was confronted by Officer Campbell in the business parking lot. By this time K-9 Officer Adam Clark and Sgt. Darren Baker arrived to assist. Subsequent to Officer Campbell’s investigation Daulton was arrested and charged with A-Felony Possession of a Narcotic Drug and A-Felony Intent to Deal in Cocaine or a Narcotic Drug.
This case is still under investigation, if you have any additional information regarding this case you are encouraged to call Charlestown Police Department at 812-256-6345. All callers can remain anonymous. |
