Potential adoptees are asked to bring family or roommates with them and provide references that include landlords, employ- ers and veterinarians. The subsequent review process lasts three to fi ve days. The emphasis, the end result, is fi nding the per- fect match. “A new pet requires re- sponsibility, dedication, love and devotion, and sometimes, a great deal of money. Adoption of a pet is a lifetime commitment,” the shelter’s website states.

It is an im- portant cost because cats can birth anywhere from 20 to 30 kittens over the course of a year. “I think we do a darn good job,” said Vereb, who moved to the area from Griffi th after retiring. She, herself, owns four cats. “As soon as I started volunteering here, I just loved it.” As a nonprofi t, ICS also focuses on fundraising.

And that’s OK. Vereb and her volunteers have the resources to ensure a good quality of life, but space often is pushed to the limits. These days, ICS is over capacity. “Our goal is to keep it between 150 and 180, and right now we’re around 200,” Vereb said. “We have to make exceptions. Cats that have no home, have no place to be or in some way in danger, those are our priorities.” In 2012, through a partnership with the local Purdue University affi liate, the Rainbow Bridge Owner Kevin Doler Garden was opened.

When planning began for the shelter’s 40th anni- versary, a volunteer proposed “40 Years of Caring.” That, Vereb said, gets to the heart of the shelter’s success. “Everyone associated with ICS — past, pres- ent and future — is here because of a love of cats, of course, but we all truly care about the cats we save,” she said. “We all work hard to be sure they are happy and healthy while they are with us, and that they fi nd the best home possible.” (Shelter hours are 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. Friday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday and 1 to 4 p.m. Sunday, or by appointment by calling 219-785-4936.)

Promoting responsible ownership, once a cat is adopted, is one mission at the shelter. The main building is about 2,500 square feet and divided into 12 separate “communal” cat rooms. The smaller building, known as the “Gift Shop, which it formerly was, is about 590 square feet and houses incoming cats and kittens until they are fi xed, vac- cinated and can move to a communal cat room, as well as offi ce space and some stor- age.

Werner The woman intended to throw away thousands of photo negatives. “Who in their right mind would want these old car accident scenes?” she said. I perked up. “I think they’re cool,” I said. Her nose scrunched and her lips contorted. “Eww,” she said. She didn’t protest when I offered to take them home. Some photos included injured drivers and pas- sengers, some of whom took their fi nal ride. But I wasn’t interested in the macabre. My curiosity was elsewhere. Who wouldn’t want to look at a photo of a Studebaker with a crinkled fender, a Nash with a banged-in door, the crumpled bumper of a 1940 Plymouth pickup truck, a 1948 Oldsmobile that sideswiped a telephone pole or a 1934 Chevy sedan vertising Zorn beer, a sign for the Glass House in that had gone turtle? the background and people who couldn’t help but pose when the cameraman held up his lens. That’s what drove me to create the photo book, “CAR CRASH: Historic Photographs 1937-48.” All of the photos were taken in Michigan City. Each one pulls you in to explore the scenery, soak in the de- tails, decipher the mystery in each scene and mar- vel at the art that exists in everyday life. Hopefully, others will spend as much time as I have pouring over these photographs. (Visit www.blurb.com to preview photos or buy a It was all about the cars, or so I thought. copy of the book.) The cars in the photographs are as cool as they come, and the images, shot on 4”x5” black-and- white fi lm, captured everything in stunning detail.

The tours offer a different look at the mansion, 631 Washington St., one viewed in near darkness. Tea lights and glow stick necklaces worn by guests are the only illumination. Guests are led by staff who tell stories of unusual and eerie historic hap- penings occurring at the mansion and throughout Northwest Indiana. “The purpose of the Blackout Tours is not to scare or frighten anyone,” Director Jessica Rosier said in a press release. “There will not be zombies or ghosts popping out, and there will be no paranormal equip- The Men’s Ball Throwers Golf Group, started by Tom Kelley, held a party Sept. 22 to celebrate its 15th anniversary.

People are still curious, though, so that’s why we created the Blackout Tours.” Advance reservations are required for the tours, which are estimated to sell out in advance. Dates are Oct. 6-7, 13, 20, 27, 30-31. Two time slots are available most nights: an 8 p.m. tour geared toward families and a 10 p.m. tour for adults only.

During Pioneer Days, Creek Ridge County Park, 7943 W. County Road 400 North, was transformed into a small village of crafters and tradespeople, all depicting skills needed to survive in 1832 when La Porte County was fi rst carved out of the forest.

Volunteers demonstrated beading, woodworking, quilting and metal craft, welcoming young people to try these vital skills our ancestors needed to thrive in the wilderness. Folks could experience rides through the woods in wagons pulled by Bel- gian draft horses, and sample food that would have been enjoyed by early settlers. The aroma of ham and beans, mixed with the pungent scent of wood smoke, competed with the smell of freshly popped corn to add to the enjoyment. THE October 5, 2017 Page 27

La Porte County Parks Superintendent Jeremy Sobecki, who spent much of his day at the festival stirring a large iron pot of kettle corn over an open fi re, said the goal is “to bring more people into the park to learn in an affordable venue.” Most crafts could be experienced “hands on,” and were available for a minimal donation.

Pioneer Days has helped usher in the fall season for more than 20 years. Many volunteers from Pio- neerland at La Porte County Fairgrounds willingly shared their skills and intriguing tales of our past with young people eager to try their hand at old time crafts. The weekend set records for heat, but everyone who attended, especially the children, left with a better understanding of our local history. Beside that, the day was just plain old-fashioned fun.
