Th e animals, which are fi xed, chipped and registered, are eventually settled in Fraiser Park, Calif., where Lockwood has 4,000 acres and a crew of veterans. “You’re in there with them and cleaning out the pen and feeding them,” Lucier said. “It’s 12 hour days sometimes but seeing them working through their trauma and vets working through their trauma and we Cottage Grove Dental Dr. Brent Bitner, DDS 350 Washington, Cottage Grove (behind Better Bodies) 541.942.7934 SOUTH LANE COUNTY FIRE & RESCUE The Only Emergency Medical Transport Service in South Lane County from A1 INTERIM from A1 roles in education in June 2017 aft er fi ve years as the Lane Edu- cation Service Director super- intendent. Aft er his retirement, he then served in two other in- terim positions before making his way to Cottage Grove. Before Monday’s meeting, Sullivan was given a heads up that this conversation would be brought up and he noted he was honored and interested in seeing what the next steps of the process would be. “If you were to ask me a month ago, I would have said there’s no possible way in the Call 541-942-4493 for info.

Th ere’s Apache, also a big guy and, of course George and Leeloo, a dominate female, and Willow who has a pen all to herself. And while the organi- zation gives the animals names, part of its mission statement notes that the animals were never meant for pets and oft en times, their rescued animals come from homes that either didn’t know their new puppy was actually a wolf or wolf dog or, irresponsible owners set out to purchase a wolf, disregard- ing the potential danger. Lock- wood also rescues wolves from individuals who breed the ani- mals for slaughter. “One place, a vet was telling me, they became aware of be- cause they were at a trade show and there was a pelt,” Lucier said. “And they were selling it as a summer pelt and, they found out where it came from.” Th e wolves at Lockwood’s sanctuary are paired up in male and female sets to recreate a natural environment. Th e or- ganization also rescues horses meant for slaughter for over- seas’ markets as well as coyotes and parrots. Lucier still talks about the feeling he got when a wolf came behind him and rubbed against his back before laying down in front of him. He talks about George who he says he bonded with when he fi nally reached Lockwood and gets emotional when he describes the benefi ts interacting with the animals has for veterans. “For me, it’s about vet aware- ness,” he said. “I’m a Grover and not much goes on here but I did this awesome thing and, I mean, I’m on Animal Planet which is pretty cool. I could sit here and talk to a therapist all day and it doesn’t do me any good but I sit in a room with other vets and do these things and we heal.” For more information on Lockwood Animal Rescue visit lockwoodarc.org.

We talked about it being a transi- tion year, we spent a great deal of time at our retreat talking about what transition is. “And you’re right Sherry, we have a lot on our plate. Really some important things we have to do.” Aside from selecting a new superintendent, SLSD’s plate includes the fi nal stages of the Warren H. Daughtery Aquatic Center renovation, a decision on the fate of Latham Elemen- tary in addition to the recent opening of the new Harrison Elementary School. “Th e timing on this is good in terms of need for more con- versation and looking at this. I agree with what you’re both saying, in terms of the tran- sition is complex and is very time-consuming,” said SLSD board-chair Alan Baas. “I want to remember our responsibility to the district. We promised the district, we told them we would start a search process shortly.” At the school board’s special session on Monday Sept. 17, where the focus was the mis- sion and values of the board, the possibility of Sullivan re- maining as superintendent was briefl y brought up. “I’m not advocating one way or another on that situation, I’m just saying that if it’s a pos- sibility we’re going to explore, we should do it sooner rather than later because it eff ects so many other things,” said board member Taylor Wilhour. Notes from Monday’s meet- ing: Mission and Values Th e board continued a dis- cussion from a past meeting on updating the district’s values and missions. Reviewing the purpose of mission statements and how they help shape the de- cision-making process, the board moved forward in their selection process. Th ey have decided to hold on to “chil- dren come fi rst” as the driv- ing mission with additional ideas of “always learning, teaching and caring” and “safe, respectful and inclusive schools and community.” Moving forward, the board will pass these along to cabi- net members and school ad- ministrators. Vision for the Year Th e board talked about various priorities, goals and ultimately the vision for the future. On a higher level, the conversation focused on a high-quality instruction and an advanced learning pro- cess while also mentioning the upcoming superinten- dent search, the new pool and working on chronic absentee- ism. Board Assignments Interim superintendent Lar- ry Sullivan oversaw the pro- cess of having board members pick both a school and pro- gram that is going on in the district to focus on. Th e board members will be visiting their schools and programs and will be informally reporting back to the board during meetings throughout the year. Community Costs Sullivan shared with the board expenses that the board has paid around sponsoring community events such as events put on by Peace Health, Rotary, City of Cottage Grove, Chamber of Commerce and Community Foundation. Th e district paid $4,100 in events and dues.
