Shane Stykes cleared, speaks out

BY Wayne Gates The Brown County Press

Shane Stykes has been cleared of any involvement in the death of his wife. The Brown County Sheriff’s Office released information on Sept. 11 that Stykes and another person had been interviewed and found to have alibis at the time of the shooting. The other individual was a former boyfriend of Brittany Stykes. She was shot to death on Highway 68 south of

Georgetown on August 28. Stykes was pronounced dead at the scene, and was 17 weeks pregnant at the time of her death. Her daughter Aubree was shot once in the head and was taken to Southwest Regional Medical Center and then later to Children’s Hospital in Cincinnati. John Schadle, Chief Deputy of the Brown County Sheriff’s Office, said that press release was necessary because Shane Stykes “was being torn up on social media by people

accusing him of murder.” “It was the decent thing to do.”, Schadle said. “Nobody deserves to be treated like that by people who have no idea what they’re talking about.” Shane Stykes has spent most of his time at Children’s Hospital with his daughter. He said on Sept. 12 that she continues to recover. “She’s doing absolutely amazing. She’s a gift from God himself and she’s the toughest little woman I know. We don’t know what

the long term effects will be, but right now, she’s the same little girl she was (before the shooting).” Stykes then talked about how difficult the past couple of weeks have been for him before he was ruled out as a suspect in the shooting. “I knew the Sheriff’s deputies were directing a lot of their time in places that weren’t needed.”, Stykes said. “ I know they have protocols and I have no hard feelings about it, but now that they’ve ruled me out

they can focus their attention where it needs to be and that’s on the actual person that did this.” He also said that it was “frustrating and appalling” to see some of the things people are saying on television and the internet. “I’m sitting here in the hospital with my daughter and I’m not able to defend myself in any manner. Everybody in the world thinks they have this thing figured out and that’s not the case.” He said he even heard it

from people in his hometown. “The most depressing part is that I’ve been in Ripley for quite some time. I had a lot of people point fingers at me from that town. I was appalled. But in the end it doesn’t matter. All I’m concerned with is finding who did this to my family and the recovery of my daughter.” He also discussed the experience of being in the news for weeks during a very difficult time.

Rumpke Waste, Inc., in Georgetown recently purchased 6.83 acres of land located directly in front of it’s landfill where a closed Marathon station and Crowe Motors, LLC are currently located. According to Molly Yeager, spokesperson for Rumpke, the purchase was made on September 4. The land was bought from Philip and Melinda Wilson as a cost of $425,000. Rumpke Waste, Inc. is one of the largest, privately owned companies in the

United States that offers waste management and recycling services. It owns and operates several landfills, transfer stations and recycling centers in Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana. “We felt like it was a good decision to purchase this 6.8 acres on SR 68 (Mt. Orab Pike),” Yeager said. “We plan on keeping things basically the same. “Crowe’s Auto will continue to lease their car lot as well as the back part of the Marathon building for their auto repair business.” Rumpke landfill first opened in 1984 and has CONTINUED ON PAGE 14

neni, who is in the process of purchasing the hospital. “With the addition of Doctor Krishna Surapaneni to the community and his support, it makes projects like this very worthwhile,” Phillips said. Fair Board Member Juanita Barricklow welcomed the participation of the hospital in what will

The Brown County Press

Everything about life in America changed forever following that eleventh day of September, 2001 when 19 hijackers took control of four commercial airliners with the sole purpose of crashing them into the

Twin Towers, the Pentagon and possibly the White House or the Capitol building. At least 2,977 Americans died that day including the 19 terrorists. Since that attack twelve years ago, communities across America take part in ceremonies to remember the event, and remind peo-

ple of the tragedy of that day. In Georgetown, September 11, a large group of Brown County residents gathered in front of the court house to do just that, remember the events of that day 12 years ago and hold a prayer gathering. Organized by Larry Downing, the event called “Cry Out America - Remembering 9/11”. More than 100 people participated in the service held in front of the Brown County Courthouse. In front of the courthouse hung a large U.S. flag suspended by two ladder trucks. The crowd enjoyed performances by Third Generation, Big EZ and the Living Church of five Mile Drama Team. Art Owens, Georgetown Councilman and Fire Chief of the Washington Township Fire Department in Clermont County, visited the New York Twin Towers only days after the tragedy. “A few people from Brown and Clermont County wanted to do something to help and asked me if I could find a way to take some supplies to New York that would help the people up there,” Owens told the crowd. “I decided to take a truck load of supplies up myself with a few of the firefighters from my department. “Before I knew it, we had lots of trucks all

pulling trailers loaded with things like bottled water, gloves, boots, socks, clothing like coveralls and other things we thought would be useful.” Owens said seeing ground zero was like nothing he had ever imagined. “It was overwhelming walking through and around that site,” Owens said. “It wasn’t like watching it on TV. Debris was as high as a skyscraper and it was still smoking. It was a sight I will never forget. “But the people in New York treated us so good, and they were very appreciative of the supplies we brought up.” The ceremony ‘Cry Out America Remembering 9/11’ was highlighted in every aspect and was based around the Bible scripture II Chronicles 7-14 which reads.... ....If my people, which

And the second purpose is to serve as a fundraiser to provide services for the families of infants and toddlers in Brown County and surrounding Communities.” Plymesser said the PRC receives no government funds (federal, state or local.) She said it is funded entirely by fundraisers, private donations and churches. This years Walk for life begins at 9 a.m. with registration and the walk beginning at 10 a.m. “At 11:30 a.m. we’ve planned a special cookout and concert,” Plymesser said. “We will have hot dogs, burgers, chips, cookies and drinks. So bring a lawn chair and enjoy the good food and the concert.” The featured entertainers will be the “Third Generation.” consisting of Ron Green, Jerry Green and Terry Green. According to Plymesser Ron Green started out at age sixteen singing in a family group called The Green Brothers and Linda. The group included his father, Basil and his brothers Doug and Ralph and sister Linda. Third Generation has been performing all over the tri-state area and beyond for the past five years. They say their hope is to spread the hope that in Jesus Christ through their music. “For the past 20 years the PRC staff, its board of directors and many volunteers have had the privilege to serve expectant mothers and families with infants and toddlers here in Brown County,” Plymesser said. She added that she and her staff have been equally blessed by the out-pouring of appreciation and financial support for the ministry. “Because of this support,” she said. We have

It was a short but productive Sardinia Village Council meeting on September 9 as recent progress in the village was discussed. Sardinia Chief of Police Jim Lewis told council that he had written at least six traffic tickets to people who moved road closed signs and were driving on a closed street. “We were having some problems with people driving between Winchester Street and Charles Street where the ‘road closed’ signs are,” Chief Lewis said. “One officer actually had a resident tell him that he had seen a car drive through the tape and another car stopped and got out and pulled the road closed sign out of the way so that the car could get through. So there may be some complaints from people who have been ticketed.” Chief Lewis said one of the major problems with cars on that closed section is the possibility of hitting one of the sewer lids and damaging their car, then blaming the village. He said workers were also in danger of cars hitting them. He said that other than that issue things in the village were going very well. Village administrator Tim Mock reported to council that the ongoing work on Purdy Road, replacing sidewalks, curbs and the road itself were going as well as could be expected and should be complete in a couple weeks. “The hold-up on completing Purdy Road is because

Mock asked for volunteers to help put the new play set together in the village park. He said he needed a little help to put it all together. He added that it was just a matter of putting in nuts and bolts in the right places. In other business at the meeting council approved a trip to Miamisburg, in October, for fiscal officer Karen Miller for mandated fiscal officer training at a cost of $65 plus mileage. Council also approved a resolution accepting the amounts and rates as determined by the budget commission and authorizing the tax budget and certify them with the county

It took a week to get the part and get it going, and they still had to finish the job they were on, so that put them a week and a half behind on our job.” Mock added that the sidewalk on the right side and the curb down to the tracks was complete and the only thing left was the sidewalk behind the curb. He said he anticipated the pavers could be on the site by the end of the week or the first of next week. Mock also told council that he had repaired a couple of water leaks in the village which could be reflected on the water bill. He said rusted nuts and bolts had caused the leaks but that they had now

New federal funds to improve rural distribution of electricity

Eighteen Southern Ohio counties will now have access to federal resources to construct new distribution and transmission power lines for use by consumers and businesses. U.S. Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) today announced that the South Central Power Company based in Lancaster, Ohio was awarded a $64,000,000 loan guarantee from the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) Rural Utilities Program to construct new distribution and transmission lines in Adams, Brown, Clermont, Clinton, Fairfield, Fayette, Franklin, Highland, Hocking, Licking, Madison, Muskingum, Pike, Ross, Scioto, Perry, Pickaway and Vinton Counties. Included in the loan is $6, 370,485 for smart grid projects. “This is great news for Southern Ohio,” Brown said. “This type of investment in rural Ohio is critical for economic competitiveness and will continue to ensure safe, affordable service for all area residents and businesses.” According to the USDA, this loan guarantee will serve

Man arrested for making false alarms

An investigation by the Clermont County Sheriff’s Office has resulted in a charge of Making False Alarms (Felony 5th degree - possible 1 year confinement) against Bobby Joe Griffin, Jr. age 21 of Batavia Township. The investigation revealed he made 6 false 911 calls to the Clermont County Communications Center from January 16, 2013 to August 29, 2013. These calls included reporting a person drowning at Eastfork Lake State Park and others were reported as structure fires. These false reports caused emergency services personnel to respond to scenes for which they were not needed. Fortunately, no in-

auditor. Council suspended the three reading rule and approved the resolution. Councilwoman and head of the finance committee, Juanita Watson handed out a report on what had been discussed by the finance committee including: • Remodeling the village hall building, estimated cost was $60,000 • Approved a recommendation from the public works committee for the SR 32 sewer project and landlord/tenant sewer/water shut offs. Later in the meeting council gave approval to allow Mayor Todd Bumbalough and Mock to enter into a contract with McCarty Engineering to proceed with the SR 32 sewer project. The sewer will run from the village side of SR 32 underground. It was established that if contracts needed to be signed a special meeting would be called. Three finance committee meetings were also scheduled to begin work on the village budget.

Patrol reminds pedestrians and motorists that safety is everyone’s responsibility

People around the state of Ohio walk or run for exercise, walk out of necessity, or for various other reasons and the Patrol is reminding both pedestrians and motorists that safety is everyone’s responsibility. From 2010-2012, there were 7,611 pedestrian-involved crashes in Ohio which resulted in 311 fatalities and more than 6,500 injuries. Pedestrian crashes occurred most frequently in the larger metropolitan areas in the state including Cuyahoga, Franklin and Hamilton counties. Of the fatal pedestrian-related crashes occurring from 2010-2012, 46 percent were alcohol and/or drug related. Of these, 69 percent involved an impaired pedestrian. “Through education about the law and increased awareness, we can have a significant impact on reducing these crashes in our state,” said Lt. McElfresh, commander of the Georgetown Post. Ohio Law and safety tips: • Where a sidewalk is

You might also encounter other surprises on your drive. Anyone who is old enough to get his or her driver’s license can try out the Simulator. (There is also a program on the Simulator for drunk and impaired driving.) Have you ever been in court for a major traffic offense? If not, you might get an idea of what that’s like when you use the Simulator, too. We will also have a drawing at our booth for a 73-piece AAA Road Excursion Emergency Kit, so take a break from the rides, grandstand shows, tractor pulls, and fattening Fair food and come on over and see us in the Bodley Building . Parents of teen drivers or soon-to-be teen drivers, bring your teens over and have them try out the Simulator. It could be a life saver. Speaking of distracted driving, remember that it is now illegal to use any mobile communications device while driving in Ohio if you are under the age of 18. This means no texting, no e-mailing, and no talking on cell phones, Bluetooths, Bluetooth speakers,

On-Star, or any similar device. You also cannot play video games or use computers, laptops, IPad/tablet or handheld GPS devices while driving, even when sitting at a light or in a traffic jam. This is a primary offense, which means it is the only reason police need to pull you over. First violation is a $150 fine and driver license suspension for 60 days. Second violation is a $300 fine and license suspension for one year. Exceptions include pre-programmed GPS or emergency calls to police, ambulance, or fire department. If you are an adult (that is, age 18 or older), this same law prohibits you from writing, sending or reading a text-based message from behind the wheel of a car. For adults, this is a secondary offense and a minor misdemeanor. If you want more information on this relatively new law, please visit: http://bmv.ohio.gov/texting_ban.stm . Hope to see you at the Fair! The Brown County Safe Communities Program is funded by the U.S. Dept. of Transportation’s National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and the Ohio Department of Public Safety/Ohio State Highway Patrol-Ohio Traffic Safety Office. It is coordinated by the HEALTH-UC and the University of Cincinnati AHEC Program office at 114 East State Street in Georgetown, Ohio.

Members of the Ripley Village Council were presented with a special certificate of appreciation by Rob Clancy, member of the Coast Guard Auxiliary and Vice Flotilla Commander of Flotilla 6-10, during the September 10 meeting. Clancy presented the certificate to Ripley Village Administrator, Charles Ashmore. “We just want to thank the village for allowing us to hold our meetings here so we can offer our ‘Boat Skills and Seamanship Class’ to the public,” Clancy said. “We appreciate the support of the Coast Guard Auxiliary from this village.” Clancy stated that the Auxiliary is planning more events on the river and looks forward to working with the village in the future. The classes have been offered for several years at Rocky Fork State Park, but are now also offered in Ripley for boaters on the Ohio River. In other business at the meeting, Ashmore told council that he had received information from the local American Legion on how they were working hard to revitalize their organization and renew interest. “One of the things members of the American Legion have requested is that they want to put their pool table back into the coin-operated status,” Ashmore explained, “and they have also purchased a jukebox and a couple other coin-operated machines they want to install. They have asked if they could get a one-year waiver on the fees that the village charges for coin-operated machines. It was a total of $125 for the year. I told them that I would advocate on their behalf.” Ashmore told council that he believes the village owes a lot to the American Legion and it was important to keep the Legion in the village. “If the American Legion ever goes away, it’ll never come back,” Ashmore com-

mented. “American Legions are dying all over the place especially in small villages. It is a treasure that we need to support.” Ashmore said that in discussions on the issue with Councilman Scott Eagan, it was brought up that the fees should probably be done away with. “These fees only generated about $230 last year,” Ashmore said. “The administrative costs for handling those fees is more than that.” Ashmore asked council to consider taking out a portion of Village Ordinance 873 which fixes the fee for taxi cab licenses and coin operated amusement devices and prescribes a penalty for violation of the ordinance. Ashmore recommended amending section 2 of the 7section document which directly sets the fees for coin operated devices within the village. The ordinance was passed by council in January 1989. Following a brief discussion by council village solicitor Jay Cutrell said he would re-draft the ordinance and eliminate the fee for coin-operated amusement devices. During Ashmore’s report to council he said the village

is in desperate need of a new police cruiser and he felt the funds for the purchase may have recently become available. “Our department’s Patrol Charger is on its last leg,” Ashmore said. “It’s now leaking oil pretty bad and is smoking real bad.” Ashmore continued, “We have recently received two new sources of revenue that were unanticipated. One source is through the bureau of workers compensation rebate of $12,569 and the other is from the Brown County Auditor, Jill Hall. She has located some rollback money which amounts to $13,107. Those two combined are $25,676.” Ashmore went on say that amount, in addition to any revenue from auctioning off surplus items owned by the village, would be enough money to buy a new police car plus outfit it completely. He said the money would be enough to buy a new 2014 Charger cruiser. Ashmore agreed to start working on the purchase and get back to council for appropriations. He added that he might be able to purchase a 2013 demo cruiser which would save the village money.

Mt. Orab Ford Employee Salute!

GEORGE FOREMAN JR Gabbard's Mt Orab Ford's George Foreman is a Ford Service Line Technician. George had been working for a machine shop that had closed, and he was looking for a job. Another employee mentioned on a Friday night that he should come in Monday and see Ralph Gabbard. We had found ourselves in need of a Lot Tech. George came in early Monday, with a cast on his broken right hand. Ralph looked at the skinny young kid and said "Boy, how are you going to do anything with a broken hand?". George said "show me what you want done and I'll do it". George started that day on February 12th, 1990. He has done it all, lot tech, body shop worker, now he goes the extra mile as a dedicated and devoted line technician. If you look up hard work in the dictionary, it will say, see George Foreman. If he was late now and then, taking care of his children, it was hard to complain, he never stops when there is work to be done. We salute you and thank you George.

Artwork by elaine Balsley is on display at southern state Community College’s south Campus near Fincastle throughout fall semester. A meet-the-artist event will be held 6-8 p.m. sept. 26.

SSCC plans September 26 artist reception for Elaine Balsley

An exhibition featuring artist Elaine Balsley is currently on display in the Learning Resources Center (LRC) of Southern State Community College’s South Campus, 12681 U.S. Route 62, near Fincastle. The exhibition will be available for viewing throughout fall semester. A meet-the-artist reception will be held 6-8 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 26, in the LRC. The event is free to the community and refreshments will be served. Balsley is a self-taught artist who says she enjoys creating art in any medium and genre, including portraits, flowers, still life, classic aircraft, contemporary, and landscapes. She enjoys painting flowers so they appear larger than

life, allowing the viewer to see the dynamic beauty in nature. Many of her paintings have been created with mixed media on an acrylic base, either using various molding pastes and pumice gels to give texture, or beginning with an underlying thick layer. In addition to acrylics, she also enjoys working in pastel, watercolor, colored pencil and graphite. Following a 2008 donation of one of her aircraft paintings to a show sponsored by the Pentagon, Balsley became a member of the Air Force Art Program (AFAPO). Since then, she has contributed five more paintings to the collection which includes more than 10,000 donated pieces of artwork depict-

ing the history of the United States Air Force. A member of the Brush & Palette Art Guild, the Wilmington Community Arts Collaborative, and the Worthington Area Art League, Balsley is published in North Light Publishing’s “Painter’s Quick Reference: Cats & Dogs,” with a four-page demonstration on how to paint a chocolate Labrador retriever puppy using acrylic paints. To learn more about Balsley’s work, visit www.orchardviewstudio.c om.

Condemned Already

To have your loved ones obituary published free please have your funeral director e-mail us at bcpress@frontier.com

John 3:16-18: “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.” Years ago I had a friend of mine, a preacher in Michigan, who was out inviting people to church and telling them about Jesus. He pulled into this driveway and saw a man working in a flower garden in front of his house. He got out and started talking to him. The man said: I don’t want to hear about it. I don’t believe in church or any of that stuff. However, the preacher persisted and quoted John 3:16. The man said: I don’t care. Then the preacher quoted verse 18: “He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already...” The man said: get in your car and leave. So that is just what the preacher did. Later on the man said that that afternoon all he could think of was the phrase “condemned already”. When he went to bed that night it kept going through his mind “condemned already”. The next day he went to work at the factory and over and over again it played in his mind “condemned already”. It stayed with him all week so that he could not wait for Sunday to come. When Sunday came the man went to church and before the invitation could even be given he jumped up and went to the altar. He told the preacher that he believed he was condemned already and that he needed to be saved. It is a true story. It happened at the Grace Bible Baptist Church in Flint, Michigan. Just one verse ad brought this man under conviction. The Holy Ghost kept reminding him over and over again that he was condemned already. That verse makes it very clear. On the other hand, it says: “He that believeth on him is not condemned:..” Romans 8:1 states: “There is now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.” No condemnation to them who are in Christ Jesus!

DR. CHARLES SMITH

MT. ORAB BIBLE BAPTIST CHURCH WWW.BBMTORAB.COM

But, woe to them who do not believe; they are condemned already. Why? Because they do not believe in the name of the only begotten Son of God. It does not say that they have not heard it, or know about it, or didn’t realize it, or didn’t read it. They simply do not believe in the name of Jesus. They do not have to wait until that great judgment day to be condemned, although they will stand at the Great White Throne Judgment. They will not be resurrected at the same time as the saved, nor will they have a new body. Look with me at Isaiah 66:24: “...and look upon the carcases of the men that have transgressed against me: for their worm shall not die, neither shall their fire be quenched; and they shall be an abhorring unto all flesh.” In Mark 9:43-44 Jesus warned: “And if thy hand offend thee, cut it off: it is better for thee to enter into life maimed, than having two hands to go into hell, into the fire that never shall be quenched: Where their worm dieth not, and the fire is not quenched.” Those whose worm (whose carcase) dieth not are the people who are not saved. They are condemned already because they refuse to believe in the name of Jesus, the only begotten Son of God. But it is a choice to believe or not to believe. Faith is the victory that overcomes the world. Hebrews 11:6 tells us: “But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.” Romans 10:9;13: “That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved...For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” Condemned already or not condemned, it is your choice! Think about it!

Looking for health answers

Who to Trust? If you’re a healthcare professional, where can you get good information about new drugs or medical devices? The first place would be from drug or device manufacturer representatives. These reps are great for basic information like what the drug is used for, how it is dosed, special instructions, etc. Let’s say you want more detailed information though, like how does this new medication compare to drugs that are already on the market? What is the safety profile of this drug? Trust me, drug reps are not going to admit that their new $500 drug doesn’t work any better than an older $50 drug, nor will they say that their drug increases the patient’s risk of heart attack. In the past, doctors would rely on publications like the New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM) or The Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA). Unfortunately, as the government has cut funding for medical research, the pharmaceutical/medical devices industry has increased its spending. In one year, NEJM published 73 articles dealing with drugs, 60 of those were paid for by the drug compa-

HEALTH MATTERS

TOM CALLAHAN, RPH nies. By the time a drug comes to market, a pharmaceutical company has invested billions of dollars into it. They have a vested interest in making sure that any study published reflects well on their drug. Drug manufacturers typically do scores of studies but only publish a handful. They cherry-pick the studies that make their drug look the best. Cherry-picking the study that makes your drug look like it performs better than the other guys is understandable. The problem comes about when drug companies hide the studies that show their drug is dangerous. Sound preposterous? Let’s look at one example. GlaxoSmithKline introduced a new diabetes drug, Avandia. From the beginning there were indications that the drug increased the risk of heart attacks. The FDA asked Glaxo to do a study to answer the heart risk question. Glaxo commissioned a study but did

not tell the researchers the reason for the study. The study was set up to exclude people most at risk for heart troubles. This would mask the heart risk — especially in the short term. In 2007, a cardiologist from the Cleveland Clinic Dr. Steven Nissen submitted an article to NEJM with studies showing that Avandia caused heart attacks. Before publication, the paper was leaked to Glaxo. By the time the paper was published, Glaxo was ready to release results from another poorly designed study showing Avandia did not increase the risk of heart attacks. All this back and forth simply reassured physicians by making it look as though there was not a clear-cut known risk with Avandia. Finally in 2010, the FDA stated that Glaxo’s study had been poorly designed and the investigators had missed heart problems occurring in Avandia patients. This lead to the FDA effectively removing Avandia from the market. The drug is still available to certain patients where nothing else works through a special program run by the manufacturer). Because of the abuse of trust by a select few pharmaceutical manufacturers, physicians are now reluctant to trust any study funded by a drug company. A recent study showed doctors are about half as willing to prescribe a dug that is touted in an industry-funded study. The ball is now in the pharmaceutical manufacturer’s court. They need to prove to the medical community that they can act in an honorable and trustworthy way. Tom Callahan is a pharmacist, he lives in the Milford area.

items can mean the world to a child who has virtually nothing,” Hiestand said, “A tee-shirt, a pencil, a little doll, anything they get can be life-changing for these children.” She added that for some of the children the shoe box filled with items could well be the only gift they have ever received. Operation Christmas Child is the world’s largest Christmas project of its kind. Since 1993 the project has hand-delivered more than 100 million shoe box gifts to needy children in more than 130 countries. Samaritan’s Purse uses tracking technology that allows donors to ‘follow your box’ to the destination country where it will be hand-delivered to a child in need. By clicking on ‘Follow Your Box’ at website www.samaritanspurse.org/ occ, families can register their boxes and find out where in the world their boxes brought joy to children. “Filling a shoe box with a few small items is something everywhere can do,” added Hiestand. “Not everyone can donate money or even time, but most people can purchase a few items for a shoe box.” For more information on how to participate in Operation Christmas Child visit its website. National Collection Week for gift-filled boxes is November 12-19, however, sho box gifts are collected all year. The South Central Ohio Area group is based in Hillsboro at 6624 US Highway 50.

Rita Hicks celebrates 90th birthday BY Nancy Stegbauer NBSC Activity Director

Birthdays are always special; but some are just a little extra special than others. Northern Brown Senior Center (NBSC) celebrated their regular quarterly birthday party on August 12 for the July, August, and September birthdays of the Center’s members. This celebration was an extra special one because Rita Hicks, a long-time member of the Center, was surprised by many of her friends and her nephew and his wife, Greg and Bonnie Miller, who came from Florida. They were there to celebrate Rita’s 90th birthday. Rita has been with NBSC ever since the program began in 1989, twenty-five years ago. Rita has made many friends and she considers NBSC staff and seniors as her family. Her nephew is her only blood relative still living. She depends on NBSC for much of her transportation and socialization. When asked about “Her Surprise Party,” Rita said, “I’ve cried tears of happiness for two days and I just can’t stop thinking about it. I love you guys and can’t thank you enough. I don’t know what I’d do, if I didn’t have you (NBSC) guys to depend on. I guess I’d have to go to a home, somewhere.” The Center is a program of Catholic Charities of Southwestern Ohio. It provides a broad array of services to senior citizens and people with disabilities in the northern townships of Brown County and surrounding area. These services include educational enrichment, socialization, supportive services, medical and personal assistance and transportation. NBSC serves older adults (55 years of age or

older) and the disabled, at the edge of Appalachia, primarily from the three northern panhandle townships (Green, Perry, Sterling) of Brown County and the surrounding townships. The Center addresses the need for senior citizens to decrease their isolation, loneliness, and lack of care and to better improve their health and their quality of life. NBSC’s transportation services are available five days a week and the center is open two days a week – Mondays for educational enrichment, medical screenings, and entertainment; and Thursdays for Arthritis Exercise and chair volleyball practice. NBSC is part of Brown County chair volleyball league and is part of the yearly tournament. NBSC is the focal point of a multiple agency re-

sponse to rural isolation, loneliness and lack of transportation and care. NBSC is actively involved with Brown County Seniors Alive, Arthritis Exercise Program, Adams/ Brown Heart Healthy Program, Diabetes Educational Task Force, Alzheimer’s Association, Area Agency on Aging District 7, Brown County Libraries, and Ohio State University Extension Service. The Center provides case-management for individuals with other agencies to help provide for the needs of the elderly. Brown County Senior Citizens Council, Inc., Adams Brown Counties Economic Opportunities, Inc., and NBSC work well together as a team for the needs of the Brown County elderly. NBSC provides backup transportation, chair vol-

leyball activities, County Fair, Senior Citizens Day, meals on wheels, and other services upon referral. By involving ourselves in the local community planning, we can advocate for the needs of the elderly. Five years ago the voters of Brown County passed a senior services levy to help provide for the Center’s senior services. The levy is extremely vital to the success of the Center. We can’t do what we do without the support of Brown County voters. In November, the levy is on the ballot for renewal. NBSC, Brown County Senior Citizens Council Inc., and Adams Brown Counties Economic Opportunities Inc. are asking the voters of Brown County to renew the levy. As a renewal, it will not raise your taxes. We need your support. If you would like to learn more about NBSC, come join us on Mondays or Thursdays at 9:30 a.m. at 20864 State Route 251 in St. Angela’s Merici’s Church Hall. Also, our next big birthday party will celebrate October, November, and December birthdays and our Christmas party is on December 16, 2013. Come and enjoy in the fun. This past birthday party, we not only celebrated Rita Hicks’ birthday, but we also celebrated the birthdays of Regina Keplinger, Rickie Goret, Sandy Hornsby, Art Isbill and Carol Wells. We also enjoyed the music of “Back in Time Express” (Don Pierson, Larry East, Roy Villar and Dick Mitchner) and a picnic feast prepared by the NBSC staff and volunteers. Call (513) 875-2317 for details. We would love to meet you. Thank you for all who support the Northern Brown Senior Center.

I recently had the extreme pleasure of attending the Appreciation Dinner for Donna Sue Groves. Her idea of quilt squares on barns has spread like wild fire and is now throughout 46 states and into Canada. She has a Facebook site. Also, Donna Sue's idea not only has brought beauty to the landscape but her idea and tribute to her mother Maxine has also brought tourism into each of those areas, made income for many peoples, and promoted thinking in young people with 4-H groups and other groups involved in promoting the quilt barn squares. Now Donna Sue is having some health problems and no income-thus the appreciation dinner and auction. Please check out the Quilt Barn site. There is much more to say about this. Many, many blessings Donna Sue Groves and Maxine. *** Red Oak Church has been very busy these past few weeks; two weddings and at least two fact-finding groups have come seeking information. Shirley Brierly entertained a group looking for information concerning Aunt Jemima and Shirley and I had the pleasure of meeting with Cissy Rose and her group looking for information on the Bowers and the Buckeye Mills located somewhere on Red Oak Creek. As always any gifts and donations received regarding Aunt Jemima goes to the Red Oak Cemetery Perpetual Fund. Information and a reprint of photos taken during the Aunt Jemima Breakfast is also a possibility. For more information about the Red Oak Cemetery call Don Salisbury at (513) 218-4661. *** Please remember God's

On Tuesday, September 10, 2013 Crosstown Road was closed for about 5 hours when a mobile home pulled by A local man with the tractor thats off to the left side ran into complications. He was moving it from a property across the street to Jeff Lane for another family member to move into. The home was saved but remains on the property where it originally came from. Area residents were fascinated as they watched the tow team work together to safely remove the home from the road.

September in the garden BY Faye Mahaffey Master Gardner Volunteer

The hot, dry weather has slowed down the harvest of my tomatoes. The cucumber vines are ready to be pulled up. I have started gifting green peppers to my friends. The birds have stripped my sunflowers of all their seeds. It is hard to believe that we are in the last days of August! Where did the summer go? It’s time to check September’s list of gardening tasks that includes: • Continue watering your garden as needed during dry weather • Continue collecting seeds for next year’s garden • Continue checking regularly for signs of pests and diseases • Continue weeding your beds • Cover water gardens with netting to catch any falling leaves • Water newly planted trees and shrubs once a week • Cut back ragged-looking perennials • Divide perennials • Divide peonies • Plant tulips • Continue direct-seeding lettuce, endive and spinach • Continue harvesting herbs • Clean up areas of the vegetable garden that have finished producing • Refresh containers with fall annuals such as asters, mums, flowering kale, cabbage, dried cornstalks, and gourds

• Continue composting Take a walk around your gardens and start making a “to do” list for next season If you have a cold frame, be sure to get it cleaned out and ready for direct-seeding of lettuce and spinach that you can enjoy in the colder months Gather fallen branches, tall grasses, berries – whatever you can find-then assemble them in a tall vase. September 19 is the first seminar of the series being held at the Fincastle campus of Southern State College. Seminars are free and open to the public. Seminars are held in the library from 6 until 7:30 p.m. “Home Preserving” will be the topic taught by Amy Habig (Family and Consumer Sciences/Brown County OSUE). Have you thought about the possible date of our first frost? If you have plants that you want to bring inside for the winter, you might start potting up soon so that you can check them over carefully before bringing in unwanted insect “guests”! Kudzu in Ohio? On a recent “Sunday Morning” segment they were talking about battling invasive Asian carp. In some spots along the Illinois River, bighead and silver Asian carp are so abundant that boaters are at risk because motors excite the fish and they jump in and out of the water constantly. Numerous boaters have been hit by flying fish. Kudzu (referred to as the

vine that ate the south) was also a featured invader of the United States. That started a discussion about trips to the south as a child. My dad always cautioned me not to stand too close to the kudzu vine because “it might grab onto your leg and pull you into the jungle of vines”. Great material for a horror movie, don’t you think? Then the discussion turned to whether or not we have kudzu in Ohio. After some quick research I found that Kudzu has already been discovered across Ohio, from the extreme southern point of Lawrence County as far north as Cuyahoga County and many counties in between. Kudzu is already becoming a problem in the Ohio River valley, where the climatic conditions allow the plant to produce fruit. The seeds are spread by wildlife and even by mowers, vehicle tires and shoes. Kudzu (Pueraria Montana) is an invasive vine that is native to Asia. It was introduced to the United States in the late 1800’s for erosion control, feed for livestock, and landscaping. In 1953 the USDA removed kudzu from a list of suggested cover plants and listed it as a weed in 1970. By 1997 the vine was placed on the “Federal Noxious Weed List”. Today, kudzu is estimated to cover at lease 7,400,000 acres of land in the southeastern United States, mostly in Alabama, Georgia, Florida, and Mississippi. It has been recorded

in Nova Scotia, Canada, Ohio, and all five boroughs of New York City. The longer kudzu is allowed to grow in an area, the harder it will be to control. Early detection and control is the best option. By locating isolated patches of this invasive vine now, we may be able to limit its spread and control it before it establishes a firm foothold in the native forests of our state. Kudzu has large compound leaves with three leaflets per leaf. Each of the three leaflets is three to seven inches long and will often have lobes. Flowers are generally present from June to September, and are two to twelve inch long bright purple clusters similar to pea flowers. The fruit is present from September to January, and consists of flat, tan, hairy seed pods up to three inches long. Each seed pod can have three to ten hard seeds. If you suspect your land has kudzu, you can call the Ohio Department of Natural Resources’ Division of Forestry at 877-247-8733 to request that a service forester visit the site for verification. You can also use a smart phone app from the Great Lakes Early Detection Network to send a photo and request verification. The app can be downloaded at http://go.osu.eud/GLEDN. Don’t forget to email your gardening questions to Brown County Master Gardener Volunteer, Mike Hannah, at mhannah2@msn.com.

I’m going to do whatever it takes.” Stykes then asked the community for help. “If you think you know the smallest thing, please tell somebody. Call Crimestoppers, call the Sheriff’s Office. What someone knows could end

up turning the whole case around.” He added that there were some things that are not needed as well. “We don’t need any more rumors or false accusations. I’m sure the Brown County Sheriff’s Office has got a pile of false leads and false accusations.” The phone number at the Sheriff’s Office to call with information on the case is

937-378-4435, ext. 114. Crime Stoppers is also offering a $5000 reward for information leading to the arrest of the killer. That number is 513-352-3040. Various accounts have been set up to help the Dotson and Stykes families with expenses related to the crime. Here are the accounts currently set up to accept donations: • PNC Bank: Checks should be made payable to

“You’re sitting at the hospital with a one year old baby that has a bullet hole in her head. And then you have to go sleep every night and wake up every morning seeing your wifes face broadcast on every station.” He added that the false allegations and speculation of people about the crime made the experience much more difficult.

“And then you have to hear rumors and allegations and see things on the computer about how I did this to my wife. I’m already dealing with the worst experience a person can go through and then you throw slander on top of that, it’s makes a guy really angry.” He said he’s taking comfort in the relationship he had with Brittany. “My wife was an angel.

2013 Kroger’s Cops & Cars raises over $1,600 for Mt. Orab Police Association

BY Martha B. Jacob The Brown County Press

It was a fun-filled day for everyone who made it out to the 2013 Kroger’s Cops & Cars, September 7, especially for the Mt. Orab Police Officers who took part. The event was sponsored by the Mt. Orab Police Association, a non-profit organization set up to support the Mt. Orab Police Department. The association assists in purchasing equipment for the department as well as assist the families of officers. Currently the association is trying to raise funds to purchase a K-9 unit. Mt. Orab Chief of Police Bryan Mount said the event raised over $1,600 for the

Mt. Orab Police Association. “It was a well attended show this year,” Mount explained. “There were more than 60 entries in the car show, and I’d have to say more than 300 people from the community showed up.” The car show offered classes for motorcycles, trucks, hot rods, classics, projects and moderns. Mount said the Mt. Orab Kroger store donated their profits to the association which was greatly appreciated by all the officers. Hot dogs, hamburgers and cold drinks were available and all proceeds went to the Police Association. “Mt. Orab Patrolman T.J. Hubbard coordinated the event, and his father, Tim Hubbard served as DJ (Juke Box Junkies) for the event.” Chief Mount said special events were planned to raise money for the Mt. Orab Police Department to purchase a K-9 Unit. “We used to use the sheriff’s departments K-9 unit,” Mount explained, “But we can’t use it anymore. We are seeing rising occurrences of drugs in our village and a K9 unit is almost mandatory. They could make big difference in our community and drug busts.” Mount continued, “It was fun to watch four of our patrol officers get up there and do the chicken dance and the YMCA dance in front of all those people. They raised an extra $300 for their efforts.” Officers participating in the dances include Ptl. Reggie McKenzie, Ptl. Mike

Dearing, Ptl. T.J. Hubbard and Ptl. Ryan Gregory. “The Mt. Orab Police Association would like to thank everyone who took part in the event and made a contribution,” Mount said. “We also appreciate all officers who took part in this year’s Kroger’s Cops & Cars.”

Eastern FFA wins national competition

The 2013 senior FFA class from Eastern High School recently participated in the first tractor restoration competition held by the Ohio chapter of the Red Power Roundup Days, a yearly event for International Harvester collectors. Youth from all over the country and

Canada were invited to participate with an IH, Farmall or Cub Cadet tractor. The main reason for this competition according to Tom Harp, president of Red Power Roundup Ohio Chapter 6, is to encourage young people to continue the love of antique IH equipment.

Dustin Yockey, a member of the Eastern FFA chapter volunteered his 1930 Farmall Regular tractor as their entry. With the help of his senior classmates, the tractor was stripped down and Dustin rebuilt and painted the tractor. The tractor received first place earning a plaque and

$1500. The Red Power Roundup is an international gathering of IH collectors showing off not only their tractors, but also trucks, cars, household appliances and more. This year's show was held in Lima, Ohio and next year will be in Huron, South Dakota.

Barricklow said. Fair Board Member Danny Gray said that the previous two donations of the hospital have already made a big difference. “Last year we had a participant from Chicago and another from North Carolina. If we didn’t have the donation from the hospital to increase the prize money, we

wouldn’t be able to draw the talent that we do.”, Gray said. Following the check presentation, Barricklow and Gray traveled to the fairgrounds to talk about some of the improvements made to the grounds in advance of the 2013 Brown County Fair. They include about fifty thousand dollars worth of electrical im-

provements, a new roof on the swine barn and work done to the small animal building. One big change is the addition of a new building next to the Danny Gray Activity Center. The building will house all Future Farmers of America and 4H activities that were previously held in the Pullman building.

That building will now be for small animals only, to allow more room for exhibitors. The new building will be named after Harmon and Velva Neal. It was built by A1 Builders of Mowrystown. A dedication of the building is scheduled for Sunday, Sept. 22 at 5 p.m. The fair will begin the following day.

393-1918. Master Gardener Training in September If you are interested in becoming a Master Gardener, there will be training offered beginning in late September. This will be a little different

format than in the past. The class will be held in Chillicothe, but the use of technology may permit the classes to be offered at alternative sites. Go to http://ross.osu.edu for more information.

A Fayetteville-Perry defense lineman took Bethel Tate quarterback Blake norris off of his feet during their game on sept. 6. The rockets won and improved to 2-0, the best start for them in four years.

BY Brandon Barb The Brown County Press After going through three seasons with a combined seven games won, the Fayetteville-Perry football program is beginning to turn things around. The Rockets started the 2013 season by going 2-0, setting the program up for a successful year -- and possibly its first winning season. “There is a lot of excitement in the school and throughout the community,” Fayetteville Head Coach Nathan Geers said. “But by no means are we satisfied though.” The biggest change in the still young program has been the players coming together -- especially the seniors. According to Geers the players have bought into the coaching philosophy, are playing as a team and doing what

High numbers and high tempo for WB Broncos

BY Brandon Barb The Brown County Press

Before the Western Brown Broncos began the football season, head coach Evan Dreyer said the team was going to be playing “basketball on grass.” During the first and second game the Broncos did just that. With a fast tempo that has kept defenses backpedaling, the Broncos have been able to score often while putting up hefty offensive numbers. After two games, senior quarterback Devyn Wood nearly hit 1,000 yards passing with 923, with 10 touchdowns. According to Dreyer, the team had around 2,700 passing yards last season. Those numbers could be reached again, possibly passed, with the pace set so far this season by the Broncos. Western Brown has outscored their opponents 106 to 42. “Since my second year [here] I realized we had great skilled guys with linemen who fit with what we wanted to do,” Dreyer said. And what Dreyer wanted to do was have

that fast tempo team, with passing and running threats. “It wears them out,” Wood said. “Teams get tired and our tempo wears them down and that’s when we make our big plays.” Wood has spread the ball around fairly well during the early goings of the season, but his biggest targets have been Christian Dawson and Jarred Haggerty. Through those two games Dawson had 354 receiving yards and 3 touchdowns, and Haggerty had 236 yards and 3 touchdowns as well. “The passing game was clicking the first two games and we went with that,” Dreyer said. The Broncos will have to run to take pressure off of Wood, so far the team has a total of 83 rushing yards with Wood having 43 of them. “Running the ball depends on what the defenses do. If we think we can run it, we will. We have to run and throw successfully,” Dreyer said. Dreyer continued, “I want us to be an offense that wins, and we will do that anyway we can.”

Even though the team has been playing to a high level, and accumulating high numbers of yardage, Dreyer is keeping the players away from looking at the stats from week to week. “Sometimes people will tell me how I did but I never look at them [stats],” Wood said. “If I check out anything, I look at Christian or Jarred to see how many receiving yards they had.” Moving forward in the season there is still work to do for the Broncos. “The first two games went pretty well but there are still some things we can improve on though,” senior center Kalan Kumpf said. “[Like] silly penalties and keeping that tempo up.” “From my standpoint, there were a lot of missed coverages,” Wood said. As things progress, Wood said he wants the team to focus more on being a cohesive unit. More “we” than “I”.

they’re supposed to do. The 10 seniors on the team have been helping a great deal, in terms of encouraging the younger players and keeping everyone focused. That leadership helped during the win against Bethel Tate, after the Rockets were down 14-0 early on in the game. “During every game you’re going to have your back against the wall,” Geers said. “But the seniors never got down.” Bethel had a hard time passing the ball against the Rockets, but the Tigers were able rush for 175 yards. The two Bethel scores came from an intercepted pass which was ran back for a touchdown, and a long run. Even though the Tigers had the size and speed advantage, the Rockets were able to pull together and battle for the win.

“We’ve done a good job on getting turnovers,” Geers said. “It is something we’ve worked hard on in practice, and has paid off.” Towards the end of the second quarter against Bethel, the Rocket defense intercepted the ball which led to a Fayetteville touchdown, bringing the boys in green back to a 14-13 score. Even though the Rockets are off the a good start, Geers is keeping the players focused on the game at hand, week to week. “We don’t concern ourselves with what everyone says [about us]. It is super beneficial for us to have a one track mind. We tend to come out focused on the task at hand,” Geers said. Other areas that are clicking for the team, according to Geers, are the offense and special teams.

There is a nice balance between run and pass on offense, with special teams giving the offense the chance to score points has helped as well. “There is still a lot to work on, I would like our passing game to get sharper. There is always room for improvement and the kids know that,” Geers said. With the program in its best position in four years everyone involved is a little bit excited, plus some of the benefits of having a winning season are beginning to show as well. “It has been a journey but all the credit goes to the kids. They’ve been working hard to get to this point,” Geers said. “They’ve earned every bit of it and I’m just happy to see the program grow and grateful to have the opportunity to be the head coach.”

Ashley Moore (5) suffered two fractures in a game against Cincinnati Country Day.

BY Brandon Barb The Brown County Press It was a routine play, with two players doing what they were taught to do when the unfortunate happened. The Fayetteville-Perry girls soccer team was down 3-0 against Cincinnati Country Day when senior Ashley Moore saw an opportunity to get the lady Rockets on the board when she collided with the opposing keeper. That’s when Moore suffered a compound fracture by breaking her right tibia and fibula. “It was one of those freak accidents,” Fayetteville Head Coach Mark Ward said. “Its unfortunate she broke both her tibia and fibula.” One of the officials realized something was broken right away and called a stop to play -- which lasted for around 20 minutes. “I feel bad for her since

she is a senior and soccer is her game. She is a team and offensive leader for us,” Ward said. “I feel like she would have been an all league player if this didn’t happen.” Ward continued by saying Moore was a versatile player that could be play any position on the field. Moore was taken to Cincinnati Childrens Hospital where she had surgery Tuesday morning to have a rod and screws inserted. According to Fayetteville Athletic Director Tim Carlier, Moore will be out for the rest of the season with a four to six month recovery time. “Its a bad situation and real sad. It definitely a hit for the program,” Carlier said. Before play was restarted Cincinnati Country Day Head Coach Theresa Hirschauer asked Ward if he wanted to end the game. Taking the ques-

tion to his players, the team voted to continue. “I gave the girls the chance to stop or go on and they unanimously voted to finish the game,” Ward said. He went on, “I hope it’s a rally for the team and they finish the second half of the season strong. I don’t think it will be a let down. Ashley would want them to.” A date hasn’t been set for when Moore will return to school or the sidelines to cheer her teammates on, but she was able to return home after the surgery. “She’s going to do whatever she can to get back on her feet,” Ward said. While Moore’s soccer season is over, there are hopes her leg will be healed in time for softball in the spring, but getting better is the first goal.

The 7th grade Western Brown football team opened its 2013 season by defeating Goshen 6-0 and stand 1-0 on the year. The Broncos had several opportunities to score early in the 3rd quarter but penalties and some dropped passes kept them out of the endzone. The Warriors never threatened until the final minute of the 4th quarter. With just under :20 seconds left to play, and the ball at the Broncos' 2 yard line, the Warriors fumbled the football. Derek Spears picked it up eight yards deep in the end zone and ran 108 yards for a touchdown as time ran out. The 8th grade team fell to 1-1 on the season with a 4828 setback. Trailing only 28-20 at half the defense struggled to stop the Warrior ground game and gave up 20 unanswered 2nd half points. Steve Grooms played an outstanding game from the defensive end position and lead the team in tackles. Offensively Seth becker completed two touchdown passes to Wyatt Fischer and Jacob Daniels, while also running for two, 2-pt conversions. Zach Stacy rushed for two touchdowns.
