"THE VIEW FROM MAIN STREET"

Before getting to the gist of this column, a moment to acknowledge, with sadness, the passing of 'Essie' McKinnis, whose absence seems to me like losing a part of Culver itself. She played alternately active and behind-the-scenes roles in many facets of Culver, as have many of her family members. Condolences to her family and loved ones.

Jeff Kenney

Culver Community High School's Building Trades program has completed its 32nd student-built home, which happens to not only be its largest to date, but the first built outside of Culver and, in fact, Marshall County.

An open house was held late last month at the 45,000 square foot home of A.J. and Jennifer Gappa, located on the south shore of Bass Lake along State Road 10 in Starke County. Besides CCHS builders, students also hailed from Knox and North Judson high schools, according to instructor Kyle Elliott, who marks his 20th year heading up the program.
