Senator David Pearce to Take Part in Blue Ribbon Panel Discussions
JEFFERSON CITY — On July 25, Sen. David Pearce, R-Warrensburg, will join members of the Missouri Eating Disorders Association (MOEDA), including the group’s vice-president Annie Seal, in kicking off a series of panel discussions designed to bring awareness to the continuing issue of eating disorders in the Show-Me State.
“In our country, eating disorders are more common than Alzheimer’s disease,” Sen. Pearce said. “While the groups with the fastest rising incidences of eating disorders are teenage boys and women over 40, young women in their teens and in college are still at great risk for developing an eating disorder. It is currently estimated that 4 percent of female college students have anorexia. This is one reason that the city of Warrensburg, with the University of Central Missouri in the heart of the community, makes the ideal platform to begin these statewide discussion panels.”
The first of the Blue Ribbon Panel discussions will take place July 25, at the Johnson County Community Health Services, 723 PCA Road, Warrensburg, Mo., 64093. The panel will begin at 3:00 p.m. in the lower-level classroom and will continue until 5:40 p.m. All concerned citizens are encouraged to attend.
“The epidemic of eating disorders is of extreme concern to me,” Sen. Pearce said. “I certainly ask any citizen affected by an eating disorder to bring his or her questions and previous knowledge to share with other community members in the hope that we can address this issue thoroughly. Knowing that so many citizens are suffering, either from a disorder or as a family member of a victim, I am constantly seeking out ways to bring awareness to the devastating effects that this type of mental illness can cause. I will continue to work in the Capitol to bring beneficial legislation to the Senate in hopes that we can address this serious need.”
A provision in Senate Bill 754, passed in 2010, created the Missouri Eating Disorder Council under the aegis of the Missouri Department of Mental Health. The original language in that legislation was sponsored by Sen. Pearce in Senate Bill 744 the same year.
In addition to discussions including the effects of eating disorders on the body, the topics of insurance coverage for eating disorders, legislation affecting eating disorders, and advocacy will be addressed.

Beehive of activity at Butler R-V...
New Projects at Butler R-V
This summer has been another busy one at Butler Schools with several projects near completion. At the elementary, four projects will be completed before school begins. We are pleased that the sidewalk to the east of the elementary, next to High Street was completed as a joint project with the city. The city was gracious enough to assist with the tear-out, which enabled the district to complete other identified projects. The sidewalk was cracked, uneven, and hazardous to walk on even when there was sufficient light. Now with the city’s help, it is only a memory.
An additional playing surface was renovated at the elementary playground so that students can have more days outside when there is wet weather. I do realize that mud and any type of precipitation may only exist in our long-term memories, but history tells us that those conditions may return.
We have retiled three bathrooms and the lone project yet to be completed is to move the bus lane for loading and unloading to the west of the multi-purpose building. One of the issues the elementary will always have is that the location is locked right in the middle of a residential area, creating traffic issues for the many who choose to pick-up and drop-off their children at the school. By moving the bus zone to the west, we will reduce traffic to the bottle-neck at the corner of High Street and Dakota Street. No solution will completely solve this issue, but we hope that this will help move traffic more efficiently and keep our students safer.
At the high school, the east lot was resurfaced to prolong the life of the pavement and backdrop curtains will be replaced in the auditorium. The most frequent question I have heard about is the activity at the track facility. In the coming months, you should see a concrete pad installed to the west side of the track. At the end of October, a new home bleacher system will be in place so that we can become a host to track meets in the spring of 2013. Once the bleachers are in place, a security fence will encompass the site for additional protection. We are pleased that so many of our community members use the facility and as we continue our progress, it will become more user friendly.
The projects that the district has undertaken have focused on student safety and instilling pride in our school system. In the next few months, we will be creating a Strategic Planning Committee that will look at some of our long-term facility needs. We need business leaders, senior citizens, parents, and our school staff, to help us make informed decisions. While it is easy to identify needs one to two years down the road, we need to hear from you about our long-term goals. Members of this committee will be asking our patrons their thoughts and feedback on district identified priorities. If you have a desire to serve on this committee please give Alan Stauffacher, district superintendent, a call at 679-0653.

Be proactive with expected rising food costs
Tammy Roberts, Nutrition and Health Education Specialist
It is no secret that the summer of 2012 is one for the record books because of the heat and drought. One of the ways we will continue to feel the “heat” from this summer is the increase in the cost of some of our favorite foods. Since we expect food costs to rise, we can start habits now to save food dollars.
In 2013, the foods in which we will see the highest cost increases include beef, pork, eggs and dairy products. “These are not the foods that we can easily just eliminate from the menu” said Tammy Roberts from University of Missouri Extension. “But there are ways to stretch your food dollar so you can still enjoy all of your favorite foods.”
