Trail crash fatal 

BAGLEYTWP — Investigators 

from the Gaylord Michigan State 

Police (MSP) post believe spjeed and 

alcohol may have been contributing 

factors in a fatal sfiovôbile crash 

which killed a 31-year-old Gaylord 

man early Sunday morning. 

Troopers from the Gaylord post 

were dispatched around 1:46 a.m. 

to the Old 27 South groomed snowmobile 

trail near North Otsego Lake 

Road in Bagley Township for a crash 

involving a single snowmobile. 

Reports indicate the snowmobile 

struck a utility pole head on. 

According to MSP investigators, 

the driver, Eric Inman, was 

pronounced dead at the scene. Inman's 

passenger and wife. 28-yearold 

Stephanie Inman, was seriously 

injured and transported to Otsego 

Memorial Hospital by the Otsego 

County EMS/Rescue for treatment 

of injuries. She was later transferred 

to another medical facility.

GAYLORD — Temperatures 

plummeted more than 30 degrees 

in eight hours Monday morning as 

an Arctic front moved in behind 

Sunday night's rainstorm, bringing 

snow and strong winds across 

Northern Michigan. 

According to Andy Sullivan, 

meteorologist with the National 

Weather Service (NWS) in Gaylord, 

heavy rains over a two- or threehour 

period late Sunday dropped 

half an inch of rain, a considerable 

amount for wintertime. He added 

the half-inch of rain could have 

equaled 6 inches of snow had temperatures 

been low enough. 

"If we had another 6 inches, we 

would have seen a few feet of drifts 

and blizzard conditions," Sullivan

OUR VIEW 

Snowmobile safety 

paramount 

The Michigan Department of Natural 

Resources Web site provides a 

timely listing of snowmobile safety 

recommendations: 

• Always keep your machine in top mechanical 

condition. 

• Always wear insulated boots and protective 

clothing including a helmet, gloves 

and eye protection. 

• Never ride alone. 

• Avoid, when possible, crossing frozen 

bodies of water. 

• Never operate in a single file when 

crossing frozen bodies of water. 

• Always be alert to avoid fences and 

low strung wires. 

• Never operate on a street or highway. 

• Always look for depressions in the 

snow. 

• Keep headlights and tail lights on at all 

times. 

•When approaching an intersection, 

come to a complete stop, raise off the seat 

and look for traffic. 

• Always check the weather conditions 

before you depart. 

IT'S GOOD advice from people who 

know their stuff. It's probably good for 

nonriders to know as well, the same way 

people riding bicycles are expected to 

know traffic laws. 

The following concludes the DNR's recommendations; 

I • Slow — speed is a contributing 

faqtor in nearly all fatal accidents. 

• Don't drink—alcohol impairs judgment 

and slows reaction time. Make it 

'none' for the trail. 

Have a safe winter.

A quiet presence 

them, but I am not at all unhappy 

with how my career has unfold^. 

As our lives were rolling along, 

however, our roles became reversed 

in a way that I would never have 

imagined. 

At the age of 30, my brother was 

found to have a brain tumor. 1 was 

happily ensconced in college and 

this rude intrusion was something 

that I did not want to have to deal 

with, but because of the situation, 

1 felt compelled to become my 

brother's keeper after all the years 

he had been looking out for me. My 

other brother, sister and I seemed to 

be more worried about Steve and the 

situation than he was when doctors 

gave him a year or two to live. 

Maybe in his quiet presence he 

knew more than we did as the most 

amazing thing happened — he lived 

22 years after the initial tumor was 

found and operated on. 

In those 22 years, he was able to 

see his daughters grow up and I was 

able to continue to witness his quiet, 

strong presence. 

I'll admit that for many of those 

22 years, I did not pay much attention 

to my brother. As long as I knew 

he was breathing, I continued forging 

my own path in this world. For a 

time, circumstances beyond my control 

kept me from seeing him as often 

as I would have liked even when his 

health began turning and I felt his 

time here with us was limited. 

I know now that God gave me 

a precious gift when I was able to 

spend more time with him during 

his last year of life. By this time,

a number of years and I would hop

ever I could. 

I loved the fact that he was able 

to meet my dog, Beau, and loved 

to hear how that single meeting 

touched my brother's life for days 

to come as he was hospitalized with 

various ailments and one final brain 

surgery the last months of his life. 

Apparently during one hospital stay, 

my sister-in-law was asking Steve 

questions and just trying to get him 

to say simple words. 

She asked him what I had brought 

to see him some weeks earlier. All 

she wanted him to say was the word 

"dog," but without blinking an eye, 

my brother responded. "Beau." It 

still gives me shivers when I recall 

this story and know that my dog had 

such a positive effect on my brother. 

I brought Beau's picture to the hospital 

room to stand among other 

family mementos and when shown 

that photo, my brother always called 

Beau by name. 

It is still hard for me to believe 

that Steve has been gone five years 

exactly to this day. He left this earth 

on Wednesday, Dec. 17, 2003. 

The last time we visited, Steve was 

on his way to Cleveland Clinic for 

what would be his final operation. 

That was in September 2003.1 was 

not able to see him again, but I am 

a firm believer that our last meeting 

was how God wanted me to remember 

him. 

I'll never forget the image of him 

sitting at my kitchen table, eating a 

bowl of oatmeal, surrounded by family 

and always his quiet presence.

WATCHED OVER BY JOY BRECKOW. Otsego County Department of Human Services specialist, children wait their turn to 'Shop with a Cop' over pop and cookies in the Subway restaurant at Wal-Mart 

Supercenter Saturday. 

SHOP WITH A COP: 'I think it's a great thing' 

Cont. from p. A1 

"It was a huge huge success," 

said Breclcow of Saturday's 

program. "It's a partnership 

between all involved in 

itThe chief did an awesome 

job of getting so many volunteers 

— so many officers cam 

e and dedicated their time." 

' While officers take the 

children shopping, Breckow 

keeps the youngsters who are 

waiting for their turn busy at 

the Subway shop. 

Additionally. Breckow 

thanked Eagle 101.5 radio 

station for allowing children 

to speak on the radio about 

thier experience and Subway 

for providing drinks and 

cookies for the children. 

This year, the program received 

additional donations, 

which allowed organizers

children to shop. 

Drummond hoF>es to start 

raising funds early to hit a 

goal of helping 50 children 

next year. 

"They were so cute," he 

said. "Adorable and very respectable." 

According to Gaylord City 

Police Chief Joe FitzGerald, 

if they could raise $5,000 by 

next year, they could give M 

kids each a $100 gift card. 

"We had an excellent 

time." said FitzGerald during 

a telephone interview 

Monday. "One child said he 

didn't want to buy anything 

for himself. He just wanted to 

buy something for his family. 

It's pretty heart warming." 

The young participants 

start their day at the Pavilion 

c€m 

always 

on Cjouri at 8:45 a.m.. then 

climb aboard an Otsego 

County Bus System bus before 

receiving a p)olice escort, 

with sirens and lights, to Wal- 

Mart Supercenter. 

"It was fantastic," said 

Michigan State Police Lt. 

Blake Davis, who has been 

involved with similar programs 

in the past. This was 

his first year with Shop with 

a Cop. 

"It was just a great opportunity 

for these kids to have 

"a special Christmas and em 

opportunity for them to see 

(officers) in a positive li^t. 

You really get more out of it 

than you give." 

MattTheunick, Department 

of Natural Resources 

conservation officer, also 

participated for the first time. 

"It was an excellent op-

youth," saidTheunick. "A 

great way to make a good impression

Theunick reported that 

most children were fairly 

conservative — focuSMfe'on 

purchasing items for their 

family members and together 

keeping track of how 

much they spent. 

Otsego County Undersheriff 

Matt Nowicki shopped 

with an 11 -year-old boy and 

a 6-year-old girl. 

"It was great," he said. "I 

had a riot." 

Nowicki explained the atmosphere

GLEN'S MARKET VICE PRESIDENT Mark Lamberies shows Cindy Smith, who works in the produce department, where some of the changes will be coming to the Gaylord Glen's as they prepare for a $2.5 

million facelift. The project will include a Starbucks which should open in February. 

Glen's getting 60,000 square-foot facelift 

Cont. from p. A1 

"The store will be modified 

similar to the Petoskey 

store, which was completed 

in June." said Lamberies, emphasizing 

that the Gaylord 

store will retain its unique 

Alpine theme during updating.of 

the store which, like 

in Petoskey, will have wood 

flooring in the deli, produce 

and meat departments as 

well as new tile, new graphics 

and interior decor packages 

throughout the store. 

"Many areas in the store 

will be updated to offer additional 

products, including 

more organics in the produce 

section and make it easier 

and more enjoyable for our 

customers," Lamberies said 

of the upcoming changes. 

According to Lamberies. 

Glen's has staged and 

planned for all work to be 

done during the third shift 

of the 24-hour operation 

with the store staying open 

throughout the project with 

a minimal amount of disruption 

for shoppers. 

LAMBERIES said new tile 

and wood flooring was installed 

this week in the produce 

area and work would 

now be shifting to completing 

flooring in the Starbucks 

and Dairy Queen area, with 

wood flooring eventually installed 

at the store entrance 

where a new floral display 

will greet shoppers. 

Lamberies said a new 

welcome center at the store 

entrance will provide free 

coffee and popcorn to customers 

and shopping carts 

will be fitted with cup holders. 

New deli cases, produce 

islands and new service meat 

and seafood cases are all part 

of the update for the store 

which will include re-merchandising 

for the 60,000 

square foot supermarket 

which will create more space 

to allow the store to add 

many more products which 

Lamberies said customers 

ha\^ asked for. 

"There will be many items 

you won't be able to find any- 

where else but right here," 

he said. 

"We have been in the community 

since 1951," Lamberies 

continued. "Gaylord is a 

vital community and we feel 

strongly that it is important 

to reinvest here and continue 

to meet the needs of Gaylord. 

We believe this is a strategic 

reinvestment to ensure we 

continue to meet the needs 

of our customers."

morning before dropping 20 

degrees by 8 a.m. Temperatures 

dropped to 11 degrees 

by noon and sustained winds 

of 30 mph and gusts to 45 mph 

brought wind chills to 10-below

"I was watching it from

the Otsego County Airport 

reported visibility of a quarter-mile

Sullivan said the Gaylord 

area could expect another 

3 inches of snow Tuesday 

night and expected a bigger 

weather system to move in 

Thursday night and Friday 

with potential for significant 

snowfall. Saturday night and 

Sunday could bring even

to the championship of the Hov\rard

The Blue Devils had eight

"I thought we wrestled really

"The kids really had a good time

The Blue Devils opened with a

Defense does it 

in huge GHS win 

By Jeremy Speer 

Sports Editor 

GAYLORD — It had been a long 

time since the Gaylord boys basketball 

team has won a key game 

on sheer defensive effort. It had 

been even longer since the Blue 

Devils knocked olf nemesis Cadillac. 

On Friday, Gaylord accomplished 

both feats, defeating the 

Vikings for the first time in five 

years in a crucial 56-47 victory 

that gives the Blue Devils an early 

upper hand in the Big North Conference. 

"That's the best defense that's 

been played in this gym in a long 

time," said GHS coach Pat Enders. 

"I couldn't be more proud of our 

defensive effort." 

Senior Ben Simons, committed 

to Division 1 Drake University, 

led Cadillac with 25 points. The 

next highest Viking netted just six 

points, a testament to the Blue 

Devils' defensive intensity. 

Despite holding Cadillac to just 

eight points in the third quarter 

and taking a 39-31 lead behind 

a pair huge three-pointers off 

the bench by junior Dustin Mastej, 

Gaylord surrendered the lead in 

the fourth quarter, resulting in a 

43-43 tie. 

From that point, the Blue Devils 

(2-0) absolutely dominated, as 

senior Lucas Wickert drilled a big 

three-pointer and a subsequent 

inside bucket, senior loe Arnold 

hit back-to-back lay-ups and senior 

Nick Freeman and junior Kurt 

Dutcher made key scoring plays. 

During that span, the Gaylord 

defensive effort was never stronger 

as senior Quinn Woodhouse, who 

slowed Simons all day, forced the 

6-foot-7 guard to miss a number 

of shots. 

"This is huge; it is awesome," 

Wickert said. "We all worked hard 

in the offseason for this." 

A trxie encouraging sign was the 

varied production from the deep 

Gaylord team. On a day where 

Woodhouse and Freeman, two of 

the BNC's top scorers, were held to 

just 12 points combined, a number 

of players stepped up. 

Arnold led the way with a clutch 

16 points, while Wickert tossed in 

13. Woodhouse added nine points 

in the victory, while Dutcher, playing 

a near-perfect point guard 

through the first two games, added 

seven. 

"It was one of those games 

where we didn't play our best offensively," 

Enders said. "But our 

defense kept us in the game. Our 

seniors played like seniors and finished 

the game." 

Gaylord swarmed the Vikings 

in the first quarter, battling to a 

12-4 lead. As Simons heated up in 

the second, so did Cadillac (0-1), 

as Connor Parcell's layup off an 

inbounds play gave the Vikings a 

23-21 halftime lead. 

Gaylord opened the third quarter 

on a blistering 14-4 run, before a 

pair of Buckets by Simons and Psircell 

cut the Blue Devil lead to eight

GAYLORD — The mark of a 

good team is the ability to battle 

through adversity. 

The St. Mary girls basketball 

team had its fair share of it Friday, 

blowing an 11-point lead inthe 

final four minutes, but recovering 

to a take a key 50-43 

overtime win against Ski Valley 

Conference rival Onaway. 

Up 11 points with four minutes 

remaining, the Cardinals 

went off, taking a two-point lead 

with 15 seconds back. 

The unshaken Snowbirds set 

up their offense and junior Liz 

Foster was fouled cutting to the 

basket. 

With 0.6 seconds left, Foster 

driUed a pair of clutch free 

throws to send the game into an 

extra frame, where the Snowbirds 

outscored Onaway 8-1. 

"We let one get away from 

us, but when we had a second 

chance, we took care of business," 

said St. Mary coach Dale 

Jacob. "Liz hitting those free 

throws was a big weight off our

GAYpOKD—The first period 

befeh kind to the 

Gaylotd hockey team. 

TWice this weekend, and 

twice prior to that, the Blue 

Devils fell behind big early 

and were forced to play 

catch-up. 

And despite their best efforts 

each time to battle back, 

the result each time has been 

predicatable — a Blue Devil 

loss. This weekend, Gaylord 

fell 5-3 to both No. 5-ranked 

Dearborn Divine Child and 

No. 6-ranked Flint Powers in 

the Division 3 Hockey Challenge. 

"This has been a nightmare," 

said Gaylord coach 

Pete Wilkinson. "We've talked 

and talked about it, and we 

keep going out and doing exactly 

that we don't want to 

do. You can't spot a team two 

or three goals. You expend so 

much energy trying to come 

back." 

Saturday's battle with the 

Chargers was the perfect case 

and point. Powers scored on 

the game's first three shots, 

giving them a 3-0 advantage 

just over two minutes into 

the contest. 

Then, senior Taylor Carey 

was brought into the game 

and he performed excellently. 

not allowing the lead 

to grow. 

The No. 10-ranked Blue 

Devils came out a different 

team in the second, taking 

control of the play and eventually 

scoring on a beautiful 

top-shelf goal by senior 

Hunter Stier, who took a pass 

from senior Jeff Birk. 

Just moments later, 

Gaylord took advantage of a 

power play and netted a goal 

on a wraparound play by senior 

Gavin Palm. 

Still charging hard, the 

Blue Devils (2-4) took advantage 

of their aggressiveness 

just 30 seconds into the third 

period, when junior Joey Zaborowski 

flipped the puck 

into the back of the Powers 

net. Suddenly, Gaylord had 

tied the game and was outplaying 

the Chargers hand- 

Uy. 

"We didn't quit, the effort 

was there," Wilkinson said. 

"We just have to put together 

a full game and execute our 

game plan. We have to learn 

what it takes to win big 

games."

poor foul shooting allowed

"It is the same thing that 

has plagued us all year — 

turnovers and foul shooting," 

said Vanderbilt coach Chris

SNOW Snowshoeing, the perfect way 

I ^ Q Y I Q I ^ to explore Northern 

Grevala has 

plans to 

start weekly 

snowshoeing 

outings 

at the 

Northland 

Sportsmen's 

Club in 

January. 

r Gaylord resident 

erry Grevala snowshoeing 

is a way to 

exercise and stave off 

cabin fever. Starting 

in January, she hopes 

to help others shake off the winter 

blahs with community snowshoeing 

outings every Sunday on the 

grounds of the Northland Sportsmen's 

Club. 

Grevala credits Gaylord couple 

Dick and Linda 

Myers — who 

have been snowshoeing 

for a decade— 

for introducing 

her to the 

sport a year ago. 

"Now I go out 

just about every 

day," Grevala said. 

She was joined 

by the Myerses 

for a quick jaunt 

around the club 

grounds on Dec. 

7. under blue 

skies and across 

deep» fresh powder, 

on the first of 

what she anticipates will be many 

opportunities for the community to 

tê part in the sport. 

- "My personal motivation is because 

snowshoeing is an excellent 

form of exercise during the winter 

months," Grevala said. "I like the 

social aspect of gathering in the 

winter because don't we hibernate 

in the VkinterTYou have to get out 

and enjoy something so you don't 

get cabin fever." 

The outir^, which are free and 

open to the public, coincide with 

the club's Simday morning pancake 

breakfasts and continue is long 

as there's snow. Grevala expects one 

Ppen a 

clwckingTfccount... 

...Restock 

shelves. 

or two pairs of snowshoes will be 

available to bprrow and is al^, looking 

for donations of snowshoes for 

the cause. 

Snowshoes also are available for 

weekend rental at Alphom Spon 

Shop on Main Street in Gaylord and 

can also be purchased at the Alphom 

Shop, Dunham's, MC Sports 

and Jay's Sporting Goods. 

Snowshoe trails stay clear of active 

firing ranges. 

Snowshoe hikes run hourly from 

11 a.m. to 2 p.m. every Sunday be- 

^nning Jan. 4; breakfasts run 8 a.m. 

until noon. 

For information on the snowshoe 

outings call Grevala at Terry's
