- Tornado Ravages Nappanee on Thursday night
- Band Places 6th at State
- Volleyball team won the sectionals (delayed to Saturday morning, and moved to Tippecanoe Valley)

Wherever I have gone in the world in the twenty years since I have left, Wakarusa and Nappanee have remained home to me. One of the things that makes these Northern Indiana towns special is the community that is modeled to the world.
It doesn't matter if the community is modeled in the many small churches, a high school, a football team, an Amish heritage, a mega-size missionary church or the Amish people that still live simply and live at a pace that doesn't exist elsewhere.
Community springs to action when trouble comes.

Even though moving to DC has made me cynical and bitter, I have to agree that there is something about those towns that makes you proud to be from there.
