As this year has come to a close, it has been successful for us at the Cass County Dentzel Carousel. We would like to thank all of you for using our facility for your celebrations throughout the year. December was a busy month for us, it included having nearly 30 private parties, along with being open to the public for two days after Christmas with the help of Jarrell Orthodontics. It is always a pleasure to watch people make new memories or start new traditions with their families and have the Carousel be part of that. I have come across so many people this last year that tell me their memories and how they want to share it with their children or grandchildren. This in turn gives me the opportunity to tell them my memories and traditions that I continue to have with my family. It is something so simple like going in a circle, riding a handcarved wooden animal, and catching the brass ring that can transform us all to a place so innocent, so unforgetable, that it feels like magic. I believe, regardless your age, you will always feel that magic when you come back to visit. The Dentzel Carousel has been in Logansport since 1919 and, with our great community, I have no doubt it will be here for generations to come!

As you read this, I’ll be basking in the warm sun on a Florida beach. I’m not sure where you’ll be when reading this, but I’m pretty sure I’ll be coming out the winner. Seems only fair considering I was moving boxes in the rain just a few Sundays ago.

WOLFSIE: Writing on the walls
Sometimes when I am trying to think of an idea for my column, I just stare at the wall. That’s not a bad thing, because on the wall in my home office is a collection of special pieces of memorabi-lia that inspire me to write, reminding me of the talented people I have had the privilege to meet.
