Chesterton

Uh, I, I, I will say this, I think that unless we raise the rates for county employees, particularly sheriff's department, uh, we're gonna continue to lose people to surrounding counties.

Uh, E911, my understanding is we have lost a, a, a number of really good employees because, dude, when you can do the same thing but work out of Chesterton and make 10 or $15,000 more, who wouldn't do that? Like, who wouldn't take the experience they get at, let's say, you know, MCPD or LaPorte County Sheriff's Office or E911, and make a hell of a lot more money, but it's a 10-minute more drive or a 20-minute more drive? I would.

Like, there's loyalty, and then there's stupidity.

That's like, you know, like the jail.

I get the officers.

Hell, when you go down, uh...

What road is it? There's, there's a, a Chesterton cop car in Michigan City, Chesterton Police Department.

I get it when you compare MCPD versus Chesterton or LaPorte County versus Chesterton pay and benefits.

Well, let- let's go to one of your old stomping grounds if you want to, Coach.

Uh, but, uh, this is a Chesterton sectional.

Oh, yeah.

And we actually have, you know, some what we call blue bloods on both sides, the boys-

Yep

... and girls of this one.

The boys looks to be, uh, a really close race between Chesterton and Valpo, and then heck, maybe on the girls' side, Coach, we, we might have a three-way race here with Morgan Township joining those other two teams.

Yep.

That's Warren as in Warren Dunes, while a porcupine was chosen to represent the history of the region and Native American reverence for the animal.

Williams and Rollins say New Buffalo was selected as the home base for the team because it's reasonably located for fans all the way from St. Joseph to Chesterton, Indiana, and they're hoping to engage St. Joseph.

Rollins addressed city commissioners there this week, saying he hopes the Quillbacks can partner with the city.

[upbeat music] WSHM News continues.

Mm.

Um, we just hosted a, um, Absen RU class at our headquarters in Chesterton, Indiana.

It's not like the easiest place to get to, even if you're from Chicago, the Chicagoland area.

It's like an hour and a half, uh, travel.

Who

was y'all's rival? Chesterton.

What if I said, Carla, you went to Chesterton, right?

No.

See, that's

No way.

You just told a guy who went to Neshoba Central that he – Yeah, but I know he's from Philadelphia.

Chesterton is Chesterton in Indiana.

888-914-9149 is the number to call.

Let us go to Leah now in Chesterton, Indiana.

Good morning, Leah.

Good morning, Patrick.

I wouldn't worry about that.

Now, if you saw something that was, like, obviously weird or doing something that would be a... a distortion of some legitimate Catholic piece of art, that would be different, and I would certainly avoid that.

But you know what I would recommend is that, I don't know where in Indiana Chesterton is, but if you're anywhere near one of the bigger cities, chances are there's going to be a Catholic goods store, a Catholic bookshop perhaps, that you could buy from them.

And I always like to encourage to shop at a Catholic bookstore if possible to support them.

you find any weird, like super weird cities that you were dealing with that were just like completely shut?

Well, the crazy – we were in Indiana, right? Chesterton, which is only like – it's not too far from

Buffalo.

Or is that Bloomington? I'm thinking of where the University of Indiana

is.

Yeah, I think that's further south in Indiana.

So this is like – Chesterton has the Indiana Dunes, and that's like a national park out there.

My brother and friend and I, we don't know any of these places.

A growing number of communities in Indiana are pulling the plug on automated license plate readers.

Our Joe Lurie reports Fort Wayne, Chesterton, and several Indiana counties have recently moved and defund or expire their flock safety program.

The company provides public institutions with surveillance tools powered by artificial intelligence.

Walker Lasbury is president of Eyes Off Indiana, which advocates for tighter regulation of flock cameras.
