According to research con-
ducted by the Home Instead Se-
nior Care® network, 52 percent
of seniors volunteer their time
through unpaid community ser-
vice. Nearly 20 percent of seniors
surveyed started volunteering
when they reached the tradi-
tional age of retirement –– 65 or
older. Furthermore, 20 percent
of seniors who volunteer say that
their community service is the
most important thing they do.
“Helping others defines life for
many local retired seniors,” said
Stephen Bryson, owner of the
Home Instead Senior Care office
serving Daviess, Hancock,
Henderson, Hopkins,
Muhlenburg, Ohio and Union
Counties. “And what a difference
we have observed in seniors’
health, attitude and outlook
among those who choose to stay
active as they age.”
Dr. Erwin Tan, director of the
Senior Corps, a national organi-
zation that links more than
400,000 Americans 55 and older
to service opportunities, agrees.
“The one thing that I hear con-
stantly from the seniors in our
programs is that volunteering
gives them a purpose in life ––
they say that it’s the reason they
get up in the morning.
“In addition, it’s a great way for
them to learn new things ––
whether a skill or just something
about an issue in which they
have an interest,” Tan said. “Vol-
unteering is just a great way to
expand their horizons and feel
like they’re still a valuable part
of their community.”

Where does the metal go?
Century Potlines produce over 1.5 million pounds of alumi-

and analyzed at the hot-metal scale, 60 percent of the metal
is delivered to the furnaces at Southwire Rod and Cable.
The balance is taken by our own cast house to form 1500
lb. shapes for other customers.
Inside the Cast House, Jimmy Rearden pours metal into

His wife Michelle is an Assistant Radiography Professor at
