Volunteering Can Be Child's Play!
Julia is a relatively new volunteer with OASIS, an educational organization designed to enhance the quality of life for adults age 50 and older, but she is a long-time OASIS member. In her mid-60s Julia was looking for something rewarding to do but wanted something that would also satisfy her need to become more physically active.
So last summer in her search, she picked up a Senior Living Newspaper and as she read through the pages she spied the OASIS CATCH Healthy Habits promotion asking for volunteers who wanted to make a difference in their community by engaging children in the joy of physical activity and healthy snacking to give them a healthy foundation to last a lifetime. Julia called OASIS, went through the free and fun training -- and she is hooked.
Veteran Journalist Mike Ahern Continues Making an Impact
When veteran news anchor Mike Ahern began his broadcast career at WISH-TV, the world – and the industry – was much different.
For starters, he wondered how they were going to “fill” 30 minutes of air time during the evening news. The staff numbered slightly more than a half dozen. There were no “live” shots as everything had to be filmed in the field and brought back to the studio for processing. At least the competition was slim – only four television stations were on the Indianapolis airwaves in 1967. During the course of 37 years, Mike Ahern became the friendly face that delivered history as it was made and provided the lead in to “Uncle Walter” (aka CBS news anchor Walter Cronkite) during some of the most poignant moments of the 20th Century.
