OCS offers mentor program
to help students to succeed
Olympic College Shelton seeks
volunteers for a mentoring pro-
gram to help students who are in
school to upgrade their work
skills.
Mickey Angello, WorkFirst
mentoring specialist, notes that
the program is geared to help
low-wage-earning parents suc-
ceed in their college classes•
"Our program," she says, "is
designed to help these individuals
find success in career choice,
training, employment and wage
progression." And mentors, she
adds, "can make the difference
between success or failure in the
life of a rising star."
Experts, she says, agree that
any effort to help the next genera-
tion along must include mentor-
ing. She quotes a recent News-
week editorial as saying, "Of all
the social ideas of the last 30
years, it's the only one that we
know works. No one succeeds in
America without some kind of
mentor - parent, teacher, coach,
friend - to offer guidance along
the way."
Angello is looking for people
who enjoy being helpful, who like
challenging (and sometimes fun)
volunteer work, who have experi-
ence to share and who are willing
to team up with and be suppor-
tive of students to help them
reach their career goals.
Meetings or conversations, half
an hour to an hour a week, will
give students guidance and en-
couragement, Angello said. Men-
tars are often "good buddies" who
just listen when a student is over-
whelmed, confused or anxious.
Anyone interested in becoming
a mentor, or who would like to
refer a student for mentoring, can
call her at 432-4538.
More information, and forms
for would-be mentors to fill out
for matching with students, are
available at the Olympic College
Shelton office at North 13th and
Alpine Way in Shelton.
Abbey Theatre's production will
showcase two Shelton thespians
Two local talents will help Ab-
bey Players in Olympia present
the sixth and last in its series of
"Magic" productions with "The
Magic of Broadway Goes Holly-
wood" this weekend.
The show will be staged at the
Washington Center for the Per-
forming Arts Stage II.
Shelton High School music
teacher Kelley Morgan is co-direc-
tor of the production. Morgan has
five years of experience directing
musicals and choirs at SHS, as
Jan Murdock
by Bill & Leslee McComb
well as co-directing and being in•.
valved with Olympia's "Babes
with Big Hair" for three years.
She's co-directing the "Magic"
show with Michael Frasier, who
has been involved in five of the
"Magic of Broadway" shows for
Abbey Players. He has directed
six musicals in Olympia and Ta-
coma.
Another familiar Shelton face
in the production is that of 1998
Kelley Morgan
SHS graduate Jan Murdock, who
was heavily involved in music
and theatre during his high
school years here. Murdock will
leave in the spring for his mission
with the Church of Jesus Christ
of Latter-day Saints and is happy
to have another theatrical experi-
ence before he takes off, an Abbey
Players spokesperson said.
The show will feature Oscar-
winning songs from comedies,
dramas and animated movies, in-
cluding Disney productions, from
1935 to 1997.
Fifty-year
reunion set
for SHS '49
Shelton High School's Class of
'49 is gearing up for its big 50th
reunion bash.
An organizational meeting to
that end has been set for Tues-
day, February 23, at 7:30 p.m. in
the Shelton Athletic Club.
For more information contact
Harley Wivell at 426-2532 or
Dorothy Selby at 877-0722.
NO REGRETS
There is a lot to be said for the
man or woman who approaches
the end of his or her days and has
no regrets. Regardless of how oth-
ers may judge a person's life,
those who live theirs with no re-
grets have the satisfaction of
knowing that they moved ahead
in accordance with their own
needs and desires. The result is
a life well lived. As the Roman poet
Horace wrote: "He possesses do-
minion over himself, and is happy,
who can every day say, '1 have
lived.' Tomorrow the heavenly
Father may either involve the
world in dark clouds, or cheer it
with clear sunshine; he will not,
however, render ineffectual the
things which have already taken
place."
Death and funerals, two topics
about which people seldom
spoke, are not taboo anymore. As
such, more people are pre-plan-
ning their own funerals. Those
who plan ahead can take comfort
in knowing that, when the time
comes, their loved ones will be
relieved to have one less major
decision to make at a most stress-
ful time. The best way to be sure
that your wishes will be carried out
is to prearrange the plans with
your funeral director. At McCOMB
FUNERAL HOME, 703 Railroad
Avenue West (426-4803), we'll
work with you to be sure your
wishes are honored.
