Hendrickson Business Advisors and
Dale Carnegie Training Announce
Courses for Young Adults
Cape Girardeau, Missouri - Hendrickson Business Advisors and Dale Carnegie Training will hold three week-long Dale Carnegie Courses for high school students.
The Dale Carnegie Course – Skills for Young Adult Success is just like the Dale Carnegie Course – except that it is tailored for high school students rather than people already out of school and in the workplace. Candidates for this course will have just completed either the 10th, 11th, or 12th grades. Each one-week course will run from Monday through Friday and participants will be in session from 8:00 AM - 3:00 PM, including a break for lunch. They will be held at the Cape Girardeau Career and Technology Center during the weeks of June 8th, June 15th, and July 13th.
Participants will develop greater self-confidence, set realistic goals, and hold themselves accountable. They will enhance their communication and presentation skills, refine their leadership and problem-solving skills, increase their motivation, and manage their attitudes and stress levels. Graduates will earn 2 college credits through the University of Central Missouri.
Rhett Hendrickson of Hendrickson Business Advisors and a certified trainer with Dale Carnegie Training said: “Most of us would have benefitted from learning how to Win Friends, Influence People, Stop Worrying, and Start Living earlier than we did. The skills developed and honed through The Dale Carnegie Course are just as relevant to young adults as to their parents. By developing strong positive habits early, these students will increase their chances of developing the right relationships the first time. These courses are not lectures – they’re laboratories in which participants can try out their new skills in a safe environment, see what works and what doesn’t work, and be more ready for the world.”
For more than a century, Dale Carnegie Training has helped millions around the world become better at people skills and is the gold standard in personal development courses. For more information visit HendricksonBusinessAdvisors.com or visit stlouis.dalecarnegie.com/events to enroll.

During Youth Weekend
Jefferson City, Missouri - The Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) reports that young turkey hunters harvested 4,441 birds during the 2015 spring youth season, April 11 and 12. Top harvest counties were Franklin with 117 birds, Greene with 88, and Cedar with 87. For more harvest information by county, visit the MDC online harvest map at mdc.mo.gov/node/263.
Young hunters checked 4,332 turkeys during last year’s spring youth weekend.
Hunters age 6 through 15 are allowed to take one male turkey or turkey with a visible beard during the youth season. Those who harvest a turkey during the youth season may not take a second bird until the second week of the regular spring turkey season, which runs April 20 through May 10.
Conservation makes Missouri a great place to hunt. For more information on spring turkey hunting, get a copy of the Department’s 2015 Spring Turkey Hunting Regulations and Information booklet where permits are sold or online at mdc.mo.gov/node/4051.
Youth and adult hunters who harvest their first turkeys can have the accomplishment recognized through MDC’s First Turkey certificate, complete with photo. Learn more to create the certificate at mdc.mo.gov/node/10469.

Cape Girardeau, Missouri - Baseball Hall of Famer and former St. Louis Cardinal Ozzie Smith will close out the 2014-2015 Speakers Series at Southeast Missouri State University when he speaks at 7:30 p.m. April 20 in the Show Me Center.
His presentation is titled “An Evening with Ozzie Smith.”
Tickets are required and are $10. They can be purchased at www.showmecenter.biz and the Show Me Center Box Office. Current Southeast faculty, staff and students can use a valid Redhawks ID to pick up a free ticket for this event in the University Center Room 204 or the Show Me Center Box Office.
Smith is affectionately known in baseball as “The Wizard” and the best defensive shortstop of all time. He was a first ballot inductee into the Baseball Hall of Fame in 2002.
Smith retired from baseball in 1996 after playing 19 years in the major leagues, the first four years with the San Diego Padres and the final 15 with the St. Louis Cardinals. His nickname describes the way he played shortstop—he performed magic with his glove and performed in the infield with amazing acrobatic agility.
He has contributed to many charitable endeavors benefiting children and has spent countless hours assisting various charities in the St. Louis area, including the American Heart Association and St. Louis Effort for Aids Dining Out for Life program. He is currently president of the Gateway PGA Foundation, an organization that reaches out to inner city youth via mentoring and golf programs. He also serves as the education ambassador for the Baseball Hall of Fame and headlines a fundraiser, “Play Ball with Ozzie Smith,” every year in Cooperstown, New York, during Induction Weekend.
Since retirement from baseball, Smith has hosted “This Week in Baseball,” was the color analyst for Cardinal broadcasts in 1997-1999 and served as the baseball analyst for CNNSI, a joint venture between CNN and Sports Illustrated from 1999 to 2002. He operated Ozzie’s Restaurant and Sports Bar at Westport Plaza in St. Louis.
In 1998, 1999 and 2001, Smith was cast in three theatrical productions at The St. Louis Municipal Theatre. He had a cameo role in “Damn Yankees” in 1998. In 1999, he sang and tap danced in “The Muny Goes British,” a musical revue based on songs from various Broadway musicals, and in 2001, he starred as The Wizard in The Muny’s production of “The Wizard of Oz.”
In 2005, the CD, “Oh Say Can You Sing,” was released featuring Smith singing the Sam Cooke song, “Cupid.” The CD includes 10 other major league baseball players singing their own versions of popular songs. Proceeds from this project go to the players’ designated charities.
Smith has three children and makes St. Louis his home because he feels a deep responsibility to give back to the community that has so enriched his life.
