Ganey, Ph.D. Susan Ohmer, Ph.D. Dear WNIT Supporters: President and General Manager I wish our WNIT Planner magazine could be monthly, rather than bimonthly. I always have Greg Giczi so many interesting items to share with you and I hate to wait so long between editions to pass Treasurer them along. I am particularly proud of the special local programs coming up in May and June. Thomas E. Slager The next of our “Legends of Michiana” series of documentaries will have its broadcast Secretary premiere on Monday, May 25th at 8pm. We will honor Elkhart’s own Arthur J. Decio – father, Cari Shein grandfather, entrepreneur, businessman, philanthropist, mentor, and Michiana’s mayor of Directors . Those of us who have previewed this program have all been inspired by it. I think David L. Bankoff, MD Sesame Street Thomas G. Coley, Ph.D. you will be too. Marvin Curtis Katy Demarais The City of South Bend has a big birthday this year. It celebrates its 150th year as a city, Robert G. Douglass “SB150”.

James Hillman Immediate Past Chair Welcome to summer! Thank you for all your loyal support. We are into the second half of our Susan Ohmer, Ph.D. fiscal year and are managing to stay on track of our budget. I’m especially excited about how Vice Chair many “upgrades” we’ve had from regular memberships to Directors Circle level. Thank you Robert G. Douglass everyone for making that stretch to either maintain your current annual gift or increasing it a bit. President and I have to plug our Sustainer Plan as making it easy on your budget. General Manager Coming up is our annual way of doubling your gift to WNIT. On Thursday, May 27th, we present Greg Giczi our PBS Michiana – WNIT’s 4th annual Day of Giving. We’ve had gifts of nearly $30,000 Treasurer pledged to match your gifts. You give $1 and it will be matched with $1. Naturally, we hope William J. Schmuhl, Jr. you might put a “0” or “00” behind that $1! This is a “shot in the arm” you can give WNIT to Secretary vaccinate us from financial peril! By the way, you can make an early gift and have it count. Just Hayley G.

Also honored were seven individuals or organiza- tions for their service and achievements. The 2012 Hall of Fame class of inductees are: Bonnie Baxter, a founder of the Southold Dance Theater in South Bend. Baxter, who grew up in North Judson, has been a moving force for dance in the South Bend area for almost 40 years. She was named artistic director of Southold in 1982 and held that Pawlowski Baxter position for many years. She has taught dance to hundreds of local students at various area schools and at the Dancenter, a school she opened in 1975 in Granger. In 2005 she created the Children’s Dance Workshop and created the Michiana Dance Ensem- ble at the Dancenter. John Charles Bryant, a descendant of the Farrow Powell family, one of the first black families to move to the South Bend area in the 1830s. He has traced his family back to 1755, and he still lives in a home that has been in his family for 112 years. Bryant is a noted authority on black history in South Bend.

Bankoff, MD your support. Thomas G.
