Dr. Scott Solcher, left, and Dr. Marc Scarbrough are volunteers at Health Care Access, a clinic that provides medical care for low-income, uninsured Douglas County residents. They attended a volunteer appreciation event Wednesday, Aug. 10, 2011, at the clinic, 330 Maine, that was held in conjunction with "Primary Care Safety Net Clinic Week."

David Cunningham, director of legal services, human resources and policy for the Lawrence School District, lost 23 pounds through the Weight Watchers program. The program is offered for half price through the district's insurance provider. Cunningham said he decided to participate in the program because he needed to get fit. He said the discounted cost and on-site location — it was offered where he works — were additional incentives.

My two brothers, my mother and me on a teeter totter at South Park in the summer of 1951(photo looking east-southeast). This is where and when I learned the concept of balance and relative weights. There is now a wide, flat depression where the playground was then located. Today, the playground equipment is located a short distance to the southwest. Photo by Carole Tomlinson

My father and brother in South Park, 1952. Dad is clearly restraining a naughty two-year-old, and my mother wrote on back, "Sorrowful Joes." In the background, the Trinity Lutheran Church roof can be clearly seen. Our family picnicked on Sundays in the park, weather permitting, and this appears to be very early spring.

My two brothers, our dad and me in South Park during the summer of 1951. I'm pouting because Dad had made my big brother and me climb down from the rock top, upon which we were having our weekly shoving match about who was "king of the rock. My brother always won. The rock was later moved from the park. We lived in Sunflower Village, but picnicked each Sunday in the park, weather permitting. Photo by Carole Tomlinson
