opinion on matters pertaining to the community.
Controversial issues:
As a
community we need to be able to talk openly about
matters that affect the quality of our lives. The
most effective and least offensive manner to get
your point across is to stick to the issue
and refrain from commenting on another person's

issue may be rejected or edited and marked as such.

Dear Editor: The
rain clouds
parted just in time for another great Fore ALMH golf outing on June
22.
The more than $16,000 raised will
support the expansion of pediatric preventive dental services on the
new HOPE Mobile.
Many sponsors contributed to this successful event. They include
the State Bank of Lincoln, Regions Bank, Harold O'Shea Builders,
Woods & Bates, Graue Inc., Central Illinois Community Blood Center,
Merrill Lynch representative Eric Graue, H.D. Smith Wholesale Drug
Co., CEFCU, Logan County Bank, Pansing-Nolan-Matlock Ltd. & The Core
Group, Optimum Investment Advisors, Kristi Lessen in memory of Jake
Lessen, Clinical Radiologists, Culligan Water Products, Eaton
Electrical, Guzzardo's Italian Villa, Illinois American Water,
Illini Bank, Denman Services, Quentin and Mary Beth Sparks, J.M.
Abbott & Associates Ltd., ALMH Auxiliary, Fitness Balance, Century
Dental Center and Puritan Springs Water.

 Our volunteers that day included Judy Busby, Barb Dahm, Norma
Engle, Joan Horrom, Dorothy Laatsch, Tara Matheson, Karen Miller,
Pat Purseglove, Judy Smith and Holly Woodhall.
A special thanks goes out to Dan and Mary McLaughlin who set up
signs in the rain, as well as the staff and board members of the
Lincoln Elks who went above and beyond to accommodate our group's
needs.
Because of the generous support of every Fore ALMH golfer,
sponsor and volunteer, many Logan County kids are now receiving care
from a dentist and dental hygienist for the very first time. We
suspect that this will lead to healthier and happier kids in the
years to come. Thank you.

Executive Director
