| Camp gets a new start after fire
(WAPELLO COUNTY) Last year a fire in the Heartland destroyed buildings at Forest Lake Camp where many children spend their summers. Now the camp is getting a new start as crews begin rebuilding what was lost. It was a chilly day in February of '06 as the camp's old dining hall and lodge went up into flames after a wood stove in the dining hall ignited the fire. At the time, camp director, Jim Ross watched it all burn down.
"By the time I got down her, the building was completely engulfed...the building was just gone," Ross said in February of 2006. Returning to the scene, old burnt bricks and small pieces of glass are all that are left of the buildings that once sat on the empty foundation, but those small piles of rubble didn't stop camp directors from moving on and looking towards the future.

• At Times Like these, Watertown Becomes a Family
"People just came up and said, 'Stan, can we get in?' " said Stan Zaremba, chairman of Saturday's Armed Forces Day parade in Watertown. "Family support groups from (Fort) Drum, veterans groups, all sorts of people, they just said, 'We want to be in.' " Zaremba, who has worked the parade for 10 years, could not recall such a surge of interest. But the reason saddened him. "This is the wrong way for a parade to get enlarged," he said. One week before the parade, four U.S. Army soldiers from Fort Drum died and three others disappeared during an ambush in Iraq. Ever since, thousands of U.S. and Iraqi troops have searched for the missing soldiers, perhaps and this is the painful hope the first in the 10th Mountain Division's modern history to be held as prisoners in a war.
