BANDITS ANNOUNCE PLANS FOR FIRST-EVER BATTING FOR SCHOLARS HOME RUN DERBY

By Marco LaNave

Event on July 26-27 will welcome participants from Tee Ball through adult to Modern Woodmen Park

DAVENPORT, Iowa. (June 26, 2014) - The Quad Cities River Bandits are giving fans and people across the Quad Cities region the chance to swing for the fences at Modern Woodmen Park, all to benefit the Bandit Scholars Program. Registration is open for the team's first-ever Batting for Scholars Home Run Derby presented by Modern Woodmen of America and Triumph Community Bank on Saturday, July 26, and Sunday, July 27.

The Batting for Scholars Home Run Derby will include a Minors Division, with participants from Tee Ball through age 17, and a Majors Division, including all ages at a competitive level. The Minors Division event will take place Saturday, July 26, and the Majors Division event will be Sunday, July 27. Participants receive a free River Bandits T-shirt and a ticket to a River Bandits game. Non-participants are welcome to catch balls in the outfield of Modern Woodmen Park during the derby.

"The Batting for Scholars Home Run Derby offers a tremendous opportunity for people in the Quad Cities to enjoy a memorable experience on the field of Modern Woodmen Park," said River Bandits owner Dave Heller. "The best part is all of the proceeds of this unique event will go to the great cause of paying college tuition for Quad Cities area students - perhaps in the future including one of the young participants in this first-ever Batting for Scholars Home Run Derby!"

Registration will begin at 8 a.m. each day, and competition will begin at 9 a.m. each day.

The Minors Division will have three competitions - Single A (players in Tee Ball through levels under age 10), Double A (ages 10 to 12), and Triple A (ages 13 to 17). The top three winners in each division will receive prizes. Registration is $20 per participant, and each hitter can choose to hit baseballs or softballs.

Majors Division will include all ages at a competitive level, hitting softball pitches. The winner will receive $200 cash and a 2015 suite rental as prizes. Registration is $30 per participant and limited to the first 50 who register.

All fans are welcome to catch balls in the outfield during the derby. Non-participants for the home run derby are asked to make a $5 donation to the Bandit Scholars Program.

The Batting for Scholars Home Run Derby registration form is available at Modern Woodmen Park and at www.riverbandits.com. More information is available by contacting Brittany Carter at 563-333-2736 or emailing Brittany@riverbandits.com.

The Bandit Scholars Program was founded in 2009 by the Quad Cities River Bandits' team owners Dave Heller and Bob Herrfeldt; the program pays the entire first year of college tuition for Quad Cities area students through the Keith Lucier Memorial Scholarship and the Bandit Scholarship. The Keith Lucier Memorial Scholarship is named in honor of the late Keith Lucier, who passed away in 2009. The Bandit Scholars Program and, in particular, the Lucier Scholarship, honors Keith's strong belief in higher education and celebrates his love for sports, learning, charitable endeavors and the Quad Cities community. Lucier graduated from Bettendorf High School and the University of Iowa. He was the River Bandits' Assistant General Manager in 2008.

The scholarships are administered by the non-profit Community Foundation of the Great River Bend, and recipients are selected by a committee made up of Lucier's family, friends, River Bandits' staff, CFGRB volunteers and area community leaders. Awarded annually to a Quad Cities area high school senior, each scholarship includes a summer internship with the River Bandits following the winner's first year of college. Tax-free donations to the scholarship fund can be made through the CFGRB web site.

The scholarships are funded by fan donations and fund-raising efforts by the River Bandits and the team's ownership. Fundraising events include the annual Frost Fest, Bandits Race to Home 5K and Bandit Scholars Home Run Derby, set for July 26-27 this season. Through the partnership with the Community Foundation of the Great River Bend, donors can make online, tax-deductible donations to the Bandit Scholars Program by going to www.cfgrb.org. Fans can also visit the Bandit Scholars Program page on the team's website, www.riverbandits.com, and follow a link to the Bandit Scholars page on the Foundation's website. Beginning with the next scholarship application cycle in 2015, students from eight Quad Cities-area counties - Henry, Mercer, Rock Island and Whiteside Counties of Illinois, and Cedar, Louisa, Muscatine and Scott Counties of Iowa - will be eligible for the scholarships.

UP NEXT: The River Bandits return home for the Fourth of July weekend, beginning with a 7 p.m. game Friday, July 4, to be followed by Fourth of July Fireworks presented by Smart Toyota of the Quad Cities, WLLR and WQAD. Game tickets are available at www.riverbandits.com. To order any of the River Bandits 2014 ticket plans - with new lower prices - call the River Bandits box office at 563-324-3000. Season ticket and mini-plan packages start at just seven games and begin at less than $40. Call a River Bandits account representative today to choose your seats and get the details of our various mini-plan packages.

Governor Quinn Signs Anti-Bullying Legislation

By Dave Blanchette

New Law Cracks Down on Bullying, Helps Protect All Illinois Students

CHICAGO - Governor Pat Quinn today signed legislation to crack down on bullying in Illinois. The bill will help protect Illinois students from bullying both inside and outside the classroom. Today's action is part of Governor Quinn's agenda to ensure the safety of students in every community across Illinois.

"Intimidation and fear have no place in Illinois' schools," Governor Quinn said. "Every student in Illinois deserves to go to a school where they feel comfortable and safe. This new law is for all students who have been bullied but didn't know where to turn. Our schools will now set comprehensive anti-bullying standards for all districts so we can help students succeed inside and outside the classroom."

House Bill 5707, sponsored by State Representative Kelly Cassidy (D-Chicago) and State Senator Heather Steans (D-Chicago), requires all public schools to develop and implement an anti-bullying policy. The policy must include a definition of bullying, procedures for the reporting of bullying, parental notification, the investigation of reports of bullying and actions that may be taken to address bullying. The new law is effective immediately.

"I heard from parents all over the state whose kids had been bullied and they had gotten no support from schools," Representative Cassidy said. "It's clear we were not doing enough, and this new law is a major step in the right direction."

"Schools must give more than lip service to protecting kids. Learning can't take place in an environment where students are not taught and expected to treat one another with respect," Senator Steans said. "Students need to know where to go for help when they are bullied, and they need assurance that adults at school will support them and work to resolve the issue."

Governor Quinn has taken a strong stance against bullying. He has signed legislation that expands the definition of bullying, requires gang prevention training in Illinois schools and created the School Bullying Prevention Task Force to examine the causes of bullying. The Governor also signed a law that allows the Chicago Board of Education to develop a program that establishes common bonds between youth of different backgrounds and ethnicities. The program may be modeled after the Challenge Day organization which has a mission to address issues like bullying.

AFGE Applauds Braley Legislation to Prevent Cuts to Social Security Services

By Brett Copeland

AFGE President says cuts to critical services hurt expanding senior population

WASHINGTON - The American Federation of Government Employees President J. David Cox applauded a bill by Rep. Bruce Braley (IA) that would delay cuts to two vital services at field offices, Social Security Number Printouts and Benefit Verification Forms.

The Social Security Number Printouts and Benefit Verification Forms are used for a variety of purposes, including car loans, mortgage applications, housing assistance and when applying for other government assistance programs.

"The Social Security Administration has never justified cuts to these two critical field office services," said Cox. "The 11 million Americans who visited field offices specifically for these forms deserve answers, since on August 1 and October 1 the services they rely on will simply disappear."

Rather than providing same-day, in-person service, visitors who need copies of Benefit Verification Forms will be directed to the MySSA website, a poorly designed customer service platform which requires users to go through a complicated registration process. Ultimately, nearly 1 in 3 enrollees who attempt to register on the MySSA website are rejected.

Those who need Benefit Verification Forms will also be directed to the delay-plagued 800 number, but will have to wait 7 - 10 days to receive a copy by mail - far too long for those who urgently need a hard copy of the forms for other assistance programs.

Those who want a Social Security Number Printout, an expedited way to obtain proof of your Social Security Number, will instead have to file for a completely new card, which will also take 7 - 10 days to arrive by mail.

Cox said that the SSA's plan to direct people to its website, part of its Vision 2025 strategy, places too big a burden on at-risk populations.

"It's important to protect the services that seniors and disabled Americans depend on," said Cox. "SSA's vision for the future leaves out those who need field office assistance and as more baby boomers approach retirement age, we need more service staff, not less."

Cox emphasized that seniors should be able to choose how they work with SSA, whether in-person, on the phone or via the website.

"A large number of seniors either don't have access to the internet or are more comfortable discussing their benefits in person," said Cox. "They deserve to get the expertise of field office staff and local access to the benefits and services they've earned."

Students will be transported in environmentally-friendly Propane Vision school buses this fall.

By Erin Lake

Madison, WI (June 26, 2014) - Following the trend throughout North America, propane autogas school bus popularity is rapidly growing in the state of Wisconsin. Successful Wisconsin-based contractors Lamers Bus Lines and Badger Bus are increasing their alternative fuel bus fleets while decreasing the fleets' carbon footprint.

Lamers Bus Lines has been providing bus transportation since 1944 and serves over 25 school districts and 60,000 students across the state. The company recently added 41 new Blue Bird Propane Vision school buses, expanding its impressive propane fleet to 59 units. Transporting students from Milwaukee Public Schools, these buses feature Blue Bird's extended range 100-gallon fuel tank and will travel approximately 8,900 miles per year.

One reason for the new propane autogas school bus deployment is fuel savings. In the past year, Lamers Bus Lines has saved over $14,000 in fuel costs by switching to Blue Bird Propane Vision buses, and the number of new propane buses is expected to grow significantly in the coming years. The company is currently installing an onsite 30,000-gallon fueling dispenser that will service the new Milwaukee propane autogas buses.

"Our propane buses have been completely trouble-free," said Allen Lamers, president of Lamers Bus Lines. "We've had no issues what-so-ever on them and the deployment has been smooth. We received comprehensive training from our local dealer, Wisconsin Bus Sales, along with Roush CleanTech and our local propane provider. From all aspects, the buses are logical, simple and require minimal adaptation. Propane autogas is a great option for school buses and we couldn't be more pleased with our fleet."

With over 1,300 school buses, Lamers Bus Lines is looking to add more Blue Bird propane autogas buses to its expansive fleet. "We are very happy with our Propane Vision school buses. We recently had a grueling winter. Throughout the record-breaking temperatures, the buses performed outstandingly and we had no mechanical issues. From our drivers, to our techs, to the community, everyone loves these buses," said Paul Mennen, regional area manager for Lamers Bus Lines.

Another established Wisconsin contractor, Badger Bus, has been successfully operating propane autogas school buses for the past two years. The contractor is set to receive 16 new Blue Bird Propane Vision buses, expanding its total propane fleet to 20. The new propane buses will be utilized to transport students in Madison Metropolitan School District.

With a 2,000 gallon propane autogas tank onsite, refueling is convenient and affordable. Badger Bus is currently paying $1.19 per gallon for propane autogas, a significant savings over its diesel price of $3.48 per gallon. The buses travel between 12,000 to 14,000 miles each year, allowing fuel savings to accumulate quickly with an average annual fuel savings of over $3,500 for each bus they operate. Given the cleaner operation, environmental benefits and savings experienced, Badger Bus has future plans to add more propane autogas buses to its fleet.

"Badger Bus has been known for its reliable transportation since our founding in 1920. Our experience with Blue Bird's propane autogas buses has been a very positive, economical experience. Our drivers love the power and quiet operation, our technicians love the ease of service and simplistic engine, and the domestic, affordable fuel provides us with even greater benefits," said John Meier, co-owner of Badger Bus. "Overall safety is of paramount importance with the students we transport and the safety and environmental benefits of these buses further strengthen our partnership with the community."

The Blue Bird Propane-Powered Vision and Micro Bird, equipped with the ROUSH CleanTech propane autogas fuel system and a Ford 6.8-liter engine, meet all Environmental Protection Agency certifications. The buses feature 60 percent less carbon monoxide, 12 percent less carbon dioxide, 20 percent less nitrogen oxide and up to 25 percent less greenhouse gases than gasoline.

"Blue Bird is delighted that Lamers Bus Lines and Badger Bus are realizing terrific cost savings and environmental benefits from our industry-leading, propane-powered school buses," said Phil Horlock, president and CEO of Blue Bird Corporation. "Together with Roush CleanTech and our local dealer, Wisconsin Bus Sales, Blue Bird will continue to provide comprehensive training and service support to contractors and school districts throughout Wisconsin."
