Overcoming adversity, veteran of Iraq War opens local business Using his skills and determination, Adam Hoople carves out his place in civilian life BY PATRICIA BEECH PEOPLE'S DEFENDER After facing combat and years of rigorous work and training, veterans often face difficult challenges when they return to civilian life. Adam Hoople of West Union understands those struggles. After serving in the U.S. Navy four years during the Iraqi War, he returned home to Adams County in 2004 and discovered that the training he received while serving in the armed forces didn't translate to job opportunities, but he was determined to carve out his place in civilian life. “I went back to school and completed a Bachelor’s Degree in Natural Science at Shawnee State University,� he says, “That was my passion.� After graduating Cum Laude in his class, Hoople
was hired by the Ohio Department of Natural Resources (ODNR) as a seasonal employee, then as a maintenance supervisor. He steadily climbed the ranks to a full-time Preserve Manager for the ODNR's Division of Natural Areas and Preserves. When his health began to deteriorate, Hoople struggled to overcome the pain and keep working. “I'd worked for ODNR as a preserve manager for six years when I started having serious health problems,� he said. “On my birthday in 2014, I was let go, and I went through a hard time after that because I was taught to be a provider for my family, but I was unable to work.� Like many veterans fortunate enough to find satisfying jobs, Hoople lost his position due to the effects of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) and debili-

tating health problems acquired while serving his country. He was diagnosed with Gulf War Syndrome and endured many months of bleak depression and bitter frustration because he had been unable to keep the job of his dreams. But, Adam Hoople was not a man to be kept down for long. With improvements in treatment for his service-related health issues, Hoople began brainstorming new career options. “I knew I wanted an economyproof business that would give me the flexibility to work when I was feeling strong, whether that was in the afternoon or the wee hours of the night.� In the summer of 2016, Hoople started his own

The future for Hoople is again looking bright. He is excited about his new business, and his health issues are being addressed by advances in pain management. More importantly Hoople says, “I am able to show my six-year-old son, Jack, that life might throw a few curve balls now and

April 22, 2014 – Two elderly men, one seated in a wheelchair guided by the other, slowly make their way down the length of the black granite Vietnam Wall Memorial. Inscribed with the names of 54,000 Americans who fought and died in one of America's most divisive wars, the Wall is a lasting memorial to the men and women who died in defense of liberty. Stopping before Panel 37, the old man, a veteran of World War II, rises from his chair and
presses a white sheet of paper against the cold stone. He carefully fans a pencil back and forth across the paper until the name of his son emerges – Teddy R. Sininger. The youngest son of Carl and Bessie Sininger of West Union, Teddy was killed in action in Vietnam on Dec. 15, 1968 while on a medivac rescue mission, one month before his 21st birthday. The Siningers were well-known in the West Union area where they raised their four children – Sandy, Denny, Teddy, and

Richard Seas AVOSCD Supt. passed the state tests and how well they performed on them. Gap Closing (F grade): The Gap Closing component shows how well schools are meeting the performance expectations for our most vulnerable populations of students in English language arts, math and graduation. K-3 Literacy (F grade): The K-3 Literacy component looks at how successful the school is at getting struggling readers on track to proficiency in third grade and beyond. Progress (B grade): The Progress component looks closely at the growth that all students are making based on their past performances. Graduation Rate (B grade): The Graduation Rate component looks at the percent of students who are successfully finishing high school with a diploma in four or five years. Prepared for Success (D grade): Whether training in a technical field or preparing for work or college, the Prepared for Success component looks at how well
prepared Ohio’s students are for all future opportunities. Per the 2016 District Report Card and the observations I’ve made over the past year, we can and must perform better on the Report Card. One observation and component on the Report Card that I’m encouraged by is the Progress component. Progress demonstrates the amount of growth our students are making over a school year. Growth, often referred to “value-added� (i.e. the value-added for each student), demonstrates that our students are learning. Taking a look at the Prepared for Success component, I’m concerned that we are not preparing our students for life beyond high school. Can our students go to college and be successful? Likewise, did our students receive a skill (Ohio Valley Career and Technical Center) and gain full time employment? Much can and will continue to be said about the manner by which ODE grades a school district. However, and not reflected in the ODE Report Card, there are many events and activities that our students have participated in and have been very successful (extracurricular and co-curricular activities). For those things our students participate in not measured by the ODE Report Card, I’m grateful for the student success. To our Board of Education,
administration, teachers, aides, secretaries, custodians, mechanics, bus drivers, and cooks, thanks for the work you are doing for our students. Likewise, if I hold true to my belief that our parents are the “#1 educators� of their kids, then thanks to our parents for giving us the students (i.e. your kids) to work with and supporting our efforts to educate your kids. As we look at what is going on at the local, state, federal, and even international levels of government, there is a great need for education. Education, or in other words the act of imparting knowledge or skill to members of our society, is of extreme importance to our students and their quality of life. Locally, and as a school/community, we will need to do our part to give our students the opportunity to collaborate and compete in the “real world�. Since ACOVSD is “In loco parentis� (Latin for “in place of the parent�), communication between the school and the parent is critical in helping to educate our students. Can We Better Educate Our Students? Yes We Can! If we as a school/community take the time to study, research, and communicate what our students are going to be presented with when they graduate from high school, then I’m convinced we will discover the NEED to do more.

NEW DRY EYE MEDICATION It is estimated that about 16 million people in the United States are diagnosed with “dry eye disease.” As a result of not having a sufficient amount of quality tears to lubricate and nourish the eye, people with dry eyes may experience irritated, gritty, scratchy, or burning eyes, as well as a feeling of having something in their eyes, excess watering, and blurred vision. While there are a number of treatments available, including some over-the-counter eye drops, a medication recently approved by the FDA is the first medication in a new class of drugs, called lymphocyte function-associated antigen 1 (LFA-1) antagonist. The prescription, twice-daily drop solution was found to improve both the signs and symptoms of dry eye. Another cause for dry

eye is exposure to a dry, windy climate, as well as smoke and air conditioning, which can speed tear evaporation. People usually know how to care for dry skin, but they may be unsure how to treat dry eyes, which can be equally or even more uncomfortable. At KENTUCKY EYE INSTITUTE, we stress the importance of preventive eye health care. For answers to questions regarding the eye, we invite you to call us at 606.759.7883 or 800.658.7282. Our facilities are located at 1937 Old Main St., Suite 1, Old Washington. P.S. Dry eye is more common in women than men and is much less common in children.

How in the world did I end up here? The other day, we were working with high school students on making a timeline of goals they want to set for themselves in the next year, five years, and 10 years down the road. Along with that timeline, we created a bucket list. It was so fun watching them come up with their lists, because the world of possibilities is wide open for them right now. I remember making a similar list for myself when I was in college, and I found that list not long ago. It’s funny how I’ve actually accomplished many of the things I wrote down, but not in the way that I imagined. I had to learn the hard way and take the long road around a few times. Sometimes I had big plans for myself, but God had other plans entirely. Have you ever looked around at your life and thought, ‘How in the world did I end up here?’ Maybe you say it in astonishment because you are so aware and humbled at how blessed you are. But many times, you might say it because the life you are living right now looks nothing like what you imagined. Maybe you are unemployed and in a lot of debt. Maybe you’ve been through a divorce or diagnosed with an illness you did not see coming. Maybe you imagined yourself having a family of your own by now and you don’t. Maybe someone dear to you has an addiction that is tearing the family apart. Maybe you thought you would have retired by now. Maybe you’re grieving over losing someone you love.

To that point, I want to share a post from my friend Lori, who is the head of the Empower Youth program in Bethel. “That moment when you had a text message conversation with a summer intern who tells you she’s now attending church regularly, you realize… When you see another intern visiting your own church, you realize… When you see a hopeful post on the wall of someone who just wanted to be forgotten… you realize.

Maybe life is just taking you the long way around. Maybe your list just needs altered a bit. Maybe the view along the way will end up being more remarkable than you ever imagined. Don’t give up. Keep on keeping on, friends. Have a blessed week!

What is a veteran? The time is coming, you will see, a child will ask, can you tell me, please tell me father, I implore I've heard you mention it before, What is a Veteran? Oh is it true, as I've been told, they're just a group of men grown old, who sit around with nothing more but talk about a thing called war, what is a veteran? And is it true, how can it be that many died to keep
men free ,by fighting in some foreign land, please held me Dad to understand, What is a veteran? I hear your plea and know it's true, I never did explain to you of things we did, the pain we saw and pray I'll never see no more, the job men had to do before, They were called veterans. To countries they went far and wide to fight for
freedom there denied, for they knew well, there had to be blood spilled to keep all people free, They were called veterans. So what's a veteran son you ask, it's men who died doing a task, keeping our land, our people free, the way God meant for us to be, Son that is a veteran. I pray my son when you are grown and raising children of your own, that they
won't ask as you have me for wars will be past history, What is a veteran? And so my son, I'll pray for when the time comes, men stop killing men and all earth's peoples living free, they'll only know from history, What was a veteran? Ray Mata
How about a dog’s wishes? To the Editor, With dog rescues in our area, I began to think about what the outside dogs might wish for like, " I wish I could live in my family's house," or "I wish my dog
house was by the front porch. They might wish that someone in their family replace their chain with a leash and walk them around their yard so they might smell that spot where they
see those rabbits, deer, and squirrels. They might wish they didn't have to live in the kennel 24/7 or that their family would clean it more often. They might wish their
family would get them spayed or neutered. I believe all pets need our care, love and attention. All they want is to be with you. Vonna Marois Bentonville, Ohio

Winchester Happenings BY JOYCE PORTER AND FLORENCE BRYSON
The Halloween Carnival was enjoyed by lots of children who still had plenty of energy from all the trick or treat candy. Patsy and I had to leave for a week-long beautiful vacation in Cozumel last week so I do not have much community news this week. I will share that we (yes, Patsy) went snorkeling just about every day and the marine life down there is beautiful. It was nice coming back to find the weather has continued to be pleasant here. David Rogers, age 40 of Winchester, died last week as the result of an accident. He is survived by his wife Amanda, two children Alyson and Isaac, his mother Marcella (Richard) Aldridge of Winchester, Robby (Lucy) Woods, and seven brothers, sisters, family members and friends. He was a member of the
Sardinia Church of the Nazarene, the Amelia Masonic Lodge F&AM # 590 and a United States Desert Storm Navy veteran. Prayers and condolences are extended to his family. I hope you all voted this week. By the time this is in the news, the election will be over, good or bad. Winchester’s Past (Florence Bryson): I have my Family Tree on Ancestry and a few weeks ago I had a message on Ancestry asking if I was a descendant of Ewing Wood. I am not but he is on my tree as the grandfather of my uncle by marriage, Vern Sellman. The message was from a Tom Radel of
Corvallis, Oregon. He works for the Oregon State Library and the Public Library of Corvallis in Surplus and Recycling. He says he goes through hundreds of books and papers and decides what best to do with them. He had found Ewing Wood's Bible published in 1854, with the family information written in it and was trying to find a descendant who would want it. I told him I was in contact with the Sellman descendants and would contact them to see if they wanted it. The one I called said he wanted it so Mr. Radel sent it to me and I have it until my cousin can get here. Ewing Wood was born in 1825 and married Mary S. Roush in 1847. They were the parents of nine children. (continued) Information is due by Sunday evening and can be sent by calling 937-6959977 (leave a message) or by email @ japorter45697@gmail.com.

On Friday Nov. 5 several hundred Republicans gathered to show support for presidential candidate Donald Trump. The rally was held at the J. McCoy Lumber Company in Peebles. “It's great to have such a good turnout for this event,” said owner Jack McCoy. “There's a lot of energy here among the people who have come forward to support Mr. Trump. They're enthusiastic in their support because they want change, they want to see this country go in a new direction.” Mr. Charles W. Herbster, National Chairman of the Agricultural and Rural Advisory committee for Donald J. Trump for President and former Ohio

Former Ohio Congressman Bob McEwen speaks to the crowd last friday at the Trump Rally held at McCoy Lumber in Peebles.
Congressman Bob McEwen were guest speakers for the event which was also attended by Kay Reynolds, Vice Chair of the Ohio Republican Party. McCoy told those attending the rally, “Many of us have our own reasons for supporting Donald Trump, and having national Trump campaign leaders visit Adams County and the
small town of Peebles represents a breath of fresh air for all rural communities across this great country.” Phil Fulton from the Union Hill Church told those present “we need our nation to return to the moral values it was founded upon and get back to righteous judgment and righteous leaders.”

From page A1 Pam. Carl delivered fuel to homes and businesses and Bessie worked at the local hospital. Teddy was their youngest son. “Teddy was a great example of a post-war American boy growing up in a Norman Rockwell community,” West Union Mayor Ted Grooms said in a speech honoring his friend during the dedication of the Teddy R. Sininger Memorial Drive. “He was a friend to everyone, with an infectious, addicting smile. No one could talk to Teddy without smiling, but we were simply smiling back because Teddy always smiled first.” Those who knew him say his smile and sense of humor were inherited from his father. “Teddy looked liked Dad and talked like Dad,” says his sister, Pam Davis. “If you knew my Dad, you knew Teddy.” Like most boys in small American towns in the 1960's Teddy liked hanging out at the local gas station with his friends. “We boys always hung out the Sinclair Station,” said David Gifford, a boyhood friend of Sininger's. “Teddy loved cars and he was an excellent mechanic, he could fix anything, but he especially loved fixing up old cars.” At an early age Teddy demonstrated a strong work ethic and a high level of mechanical skill. “There were customers like Art Smith, the President of the National Bank, who didn't want anyone but Teddy working on their vehicles,” Davis recalled. “That was really his passion, working on cars, he had a real gift for it.” Teddy was drafted into the Army in 1968, but according to his sister, Sandy Berry, joining the military wasn't something he had any interest in. “He was a simple, loving boy who would never have gone to war,” she says. But, after scoring well on his aptitude tests the Army offered him a position as a helicopter mechanic and he voluntarily changed his status from “drafted” to “enlisted”. “That was like a dream come true for him, to be in Vietnam, and have the opportunity to work on helicopters,” said Davis, who was left in charge of Teddy's '49 Ford fixer-

upper. “He wanted me to drive it to keep it running, so I'd take kids to the drive-in, and he'd always want to know how many miles I'd put on it, he didn't want me to over-drive it.” Teddy never had the opportunity to finish his car, but in the ears after his death, his father Carl saw to it that the finishing touches were placed on his son's car. While in Vietnam Teddy served as a Specialist 4th Class Crew Chief on a UH-1 MediVac Helicopter. He and the three men with whom he worked – a medic, a pilot, and co-pilot were shot down over the Binh Dinh Province on Dec. 15, 1968. Teddy and the medic were killed in the crash. The pilot and co-pilot survived but had to spend the night in the jungle. For many years the questions concerning the details of Teddy's death went unanswered. The military wouldn't allow his coffin to be opened so that his remains could be identified. “Bill Lafferty ran the funeral home back then,” said Davis. “Teddy's military escort never left his side and he wouldn't let Bill open the casket - we thought that was very curious.” Years later the Sininger family would have the opportunity to meet the pilot and learn the full story about what had happened to their son and brother. “They were on a rescue mission when their helicopter ran into trouble,” said Davis. “Teddy saw the helicopter backfiring and warned the pilot who said he hoped there were no trees under them – but there were.” Teddy's body was returned to his family the last week of December in 1968. His eulogy, written by the Sininger's long-time friend and neighbor, Jane Harsha, expressed the
shock and pain that followed news of his death: “It is difficult indeed to accept the premature passing of the quiet, contented little neighbor boy who grew so quickly before one's very eyes into quiet, contented young manhood and then went away to give his life so soon in a foreign land. Wars with their human losses are universally tragic, but never so keenly felt as when the loss becomes personal to oneself, one's close friends, one's own street, and personal to the little community where a native son has been so well known and so sincerely loved. The one consoling thought for all of us who hold Teddy's memory deep within our hearts is the certain knowledge that he is not in enemy hands, but in the everlasting arms of his Heavenly Father. A soft spoken and gentle boy, life in West Union was very dear to Teddy. More quiet than gay, more considerate than careless, he found happiness in a warm comradeship with his family, a great love of little children, a real companionship with his dog, a genuine courtesy toward his neighbors, his teachers, and his many friends from all ages in all walks of life. He took pride in the work of his hands, working patiently and precisely at every task he undertook. He gave freely of his time and skills to help others. He obeyed his parents, he respected the law, he honored his country. Teddy was never a part of the world's problem; he was always, in his modest and unobtrusive way, a part of its solution. Out of the brevity of his life emerges its shining quality. This was youth at its best, and young manhood at its finest. This was a good life that Teddy laid down. May God take it up, enlarge it, expand it, and bear it on wings of mercy to Eternal Glory.”

The long national nightmare is over, or maybe just beginning
Wednesday, November 9, 2016
Peebles sophomore Jenny Seas finishes sixth in OHSAA state cross-country meet Brother Matt is 20th, Pennywitt 71st of 188 runners in state Division III races BY MARK CARPENTER PEOPLE'S DEFENDER
a record-breaking season as a Greyhound, placed 71st with a time of 17:07.5, short of his goal of breaking the school record for a third time, but as it is often said “there is always next year”, and the stalwart of the “Dog Pack” still finished ahead of 117 of the state's best runners. The Southern Hills Athletic Conference was also represented in the Division III boys race by the Fairfield Lions boys' squad, who placed fourth as a team in the race where Fort Loramie was crowned state champions. Eastern Brown's Blake Rigdon was 24th in Division III with a time of 16:26.8 and the Div. III state champion was Chad Johnson from Colonel Crawford (15:18.4). The gun for the Division III girls race fired off at 1:30 p.m. and Jenny Seas was a favorite going in to do no worse
than a top 10 finish in a race that included 181 runners. Seas did just that, earning her spot at the podium with a sixth place finish, coming across the line in a time of 18:38.0, topping her time in the regional meet and improving on her 10th place finish at state in 2015. The girls Division III state champion was Lima Central Catholic's Emily Spreenan (18:01.8) while the team title went to Minster. For country fans, the good thing is that all three runners who participated in the state meet will return next year with the opportunity for another trip north, which would be the third in succession for the Seas siblings and for Pennywitt, more records are sure to fall, and another trip to Columbus seems to be well within reach.
The cross-country season came to a close for the Ohio High School Athletic Association last Saturday at National Trail Raceway and for three local runners, their outstanding seasons came to a conclusion with a trip to the state meet.

SHAC Basketball Previews are set for Nov. 18 and 25 BY MARK CARPENTER PEOPLE'S DEFENDER It's the most wonderful time of the year, at least for those countians who are big basketball fans, and the teams of the Southern Hills Athletic Conference are getting set to kickoff the 2016-17 seasons with the annual SHAC Preview nights. First on the schedule is the Girls Preview on Nov. 18, hosted this year once more by North Adams High School. Kicking off the night will be a 5 p.m. match up between the Fairfield Lady Lions and last year's SHAC gold ball winners and heavily favored to repeat, the Lynchburg Lady Mustangs. At 6 p.m., the Fayettevillle Lady Rockets will battle the Peebles Lady Indians and new head coach Billie Jo Justice. At 7 p.m., the Whiteoak Lady Wildcats face the Ripley Lady Jays and at 8 p.m. New head coach Vohn Hoop will put his Manchester Lady Hounds on the court for the first time, matched up with the Eastern Lady Warriors. The evening concludes at 9 p.m. With an all-Adams County tussle, with new head coach J.R. Kirker leading the West Union Lady Dragons into battle with Coach Rob Davis and the host North Adams

Lady Devils. One week later on Friday, Nov. 25, the boys' teams of the SHAC take center stage at Lynchburg High School and the 5 p.m. Kickoff is the reverse of the final match up at the girls preview, as Coach Nathan Copas and the North Adams Green Devils, defending SHAC small school champions, will face Coach Josh White and his West Union Dragons. At 6 p.m., Coach Josh Arey pits his Peebles Indians against the Fayetteville Rockets. The 7 p.m. Game will see the Ripley Blue Jays
tangle with the Whiteoak Wildcats, then at 8 p.m. New head coach Joey Darnell will lead his Manchester Greyhounds to the court to face off with the Eastern Warriors. The night ends with the host Lynchburg Mustangs, fresh off a Final Four appearance last spring, battling the Fairfield Lions. Preview games consist of two quarters of basketball and the admission price is $5 for both adults and students. No passes are accepted.

From page B1 Fowler. “We won sectionals, districts, the SHAC, we won a ton of stuff and you couldn't ask for much better. Going to the state finals two years in a row was absolutely amazing. Finishing that last 18th hole was really sad though, the last high school hole I was going to play, it was really rough. That course, oh my goodness, I've never played a course that tough in my life. For England and his North Adams teammates, the trip to state was a memorable one because it was their first one. “It was a great way to end my golf career,” said England. “It didn't turn out how we wanted it to at state, but it was still a great experience. Everyone on our team shot like their worst two rounds of the year, but the course was really tough, especially the greens. My favorite part of the whole trip was just getting to hang out with my teammates and enjoy the whole experience.” Though the players

obviously enjoyed the time at the state tourney, it is also a big thrill for the coaches, though West Union head man Carl Schneider I snot stranger to trips to the state golf tournament. “The state tournament was again a great thrill for our golfer,s” said Schneider. “I thought they handled the first-day jitters pretty well, having a familiarity with the process from last year. To have two teams from the SHAC and Adams County at the state finals shows the quality of golf being played in the area. Not many high school athletes get the opportunity.” “I would certainly like to thank the community for their support of our golf team. It really makes my job easier when people are supporting the kids. You hear so many negatives about youth, but I can say that the young men on this team have brought pride to the school and community and are well on their way to successful lives. The dedication and commitment that they have displayed over the years to accomplish this will be

used many times over in their lives. With some hard work over the summer, we have to replace two seniors, I think the team could head back for a third straight year.” For North Adams head coach Ammon Mitchell, the trip to the state was as new for him as it was for his team but he still was very proud of their accomplishments in 2016. “This year has been such a special year for our North Adams golf team,” said Mitchell. “It's such an honor to compete at the state level in any sport. I am so proud of the hard work and dedication that our boys showed this year and it goes to show that hard work does pay off. Competing at the state level will be a memory I will cherish for the rest of my life. Although we didn't win the state title, we can say that the North Adams Green Devils are one of the top 12 teams in the state of Ohio, which is quite an accomplishment. Without the support of our administration, parents, and community, we would never have had such a magical season.”

Here is some information and a list of agencies you may contact for help: Medicare is the federal health insurance program for people age 65 and over (and certain disabled individuals under age 65). If you are eligible for Social Security benefits (including disability benefits), you may apply for Medicare. Ohioans who have questions about Medicare or need help selecting coverage can contact the Ohio Senior Health
Insurance Information Program (OSHIIP), a service of the Ohio Department of Insurance, at 1-800-686-1578. The Department of I nsurance also hosts hands-on Medicare Check-up Events where consumers can meet face-to-face with Medicare experts and get accurate, unbiased information. Visit the official federal government site, Medicare.gov, for general information about Medicare coverage and available plans. Medicare Savings Program and Low-income Subsidy- The Medicare Savings Program may
cover deductibles and coinsurance for Medicare Part B. Additionally, the Low-Income Subsidy (LIS), or "Extra Help" program, may help pay for Medicare Part D monthly premiums, deductibles and co-pays. Individuals on Medicare with limited income and resources also may be eligible for financial assistance for medical expenses not covered by Medicare. Several public agencies provide free information about these and other assistance programs, including: • Your county De partment of Job and Family Services • The Ohio Senior Health Insurance Information Program • The Ohio Benefit Bank • Your Area Agency on Aging

Advantage option. If you wish to make changes, you can only do so between now and Dec. 7. Open enrollment is also a good time to run drug comparisons to make sure the Medicare Part D plan you are on is still your best option as Medicare Part D plans do change from year to year. Individuals who receive the Low Income Subsidy (LIS) can change their plans anytime of the year. Even if you are receiving help through LIS, it is a good idea to check your plans to make sure all of your medications will be covered on your current plan for 2017. The Area Agency on Aging District 7 (AAA7) is a local resource you can utilize for assistance with the open enrollment process and can be reached by calling 1800-582-7277. To be eligible for Medicare health insurance plans, you must be at least
65, or be on Social Security disability for two years, and be a US resident or legal citizen for at least five years. Original Medicare, sometimes referred to as Part A and Part B, helps with hospital, doctor and outpatient services. More than likely, a Medicare supplement is needed in order to cover the costs not covered by Part A and Part B. Medicare Advantage, or Part C, combines Part A, B and D in to one plan. During open enrollment, beneficiaries have the opportunity to make changes to these plans that provides better support for their health and wellbeing. It’s a time to change what doesn’t work and keep what does. More information about Medicare plans and options is available at www.medicare.gov. Locally, the AAA7 is available as a resource to those in its ten-county district who would like assistance with Medicare or open enrollment. Counties covered by the AAA7 include Adams, Brown, Gallia, Highland, Jackson, Lawrence, Pike, Ross, Scioto and Vinton. For questions or assistance, call toll-free at 1-800-582-7277, extension 250.

ACRMC awarded plaque for 50 years of service PRESS RELEASE The American Hospital Association (AHA) recognized the Adams County Regional Medical Center (ACRMC), through its various stages of development, with a plaque for 50 years of continuous AHA membership, by presenting a plaque to the Hospitalâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Board of Trustees. The plaque was presented to the ACRMC Board of Trustees by Mr. Kim Byas, Sr., PhD, MPH, FACHE, Regional Executive for the
American Hospital Association, at the monthly Board of Trustees Meeting on Oct. 27. The plaque reads "The American Hospital Association recognizes Adams County Regional Medical Center, Seaman, OH, for its leadership in advancing the health of its community." The plaque is signed by AHA president Rick Pollack and the AHA board chair to commemorate this milestone. The AHA marks membership anniversaries at 25, 50, and 75 years of mem-
bership. Founded in 1898 and headquartered in Chicago, the AHA is the national organization that represents and serves all types of hospitals, health care networks and their patients and communities. Close to 5,000 hospitals, health care systems, networks, other providers of care and 40,000 individual members come together to form the AHA. Adams County Regional Medical Center is proud to be a part of this exceptional organization.
Patrol reminds motorists that safety belts save lives PRESS RELEASE There is no disputing that wearing a safety belt can save your life. The Ohio State Highway Patrol is encouraging all motorists to buckle up this upcoming holiday season and continue to do so throughout the new year. From 2013-2015, 1151 people were killed in crashes across Ohio who were not wearing an available safety belt. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s simple â&#x20AC;&#x201C; safety belts save lives and reduce injury in crashes,â&#x20AC;? said Lt. Randy McElfresh, commander of the Georgetown Post. â&#x20AC;&#x153;It is the easiest and most effective action you can take to protect yourself, your family and your friends.â&#x20AC;? The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration estimates 394 lives were saved in Ohio and 13,941 were saved nationwide in 2015 as a direct result of motorists buckling up. According to Ohioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s 2015 Observational Seatbelt Survey, 83.9 percent of motorists were found to be in compliance with Ohioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s safety belt law. This is a decrease from the 85.0% observed in 2014, the record high. Occupants of light trucks (80%) and those who were 15-25 years old (82%) were below the statewide rate. Women (88%) were more likely to wear safety belts than men (81%). Male passengers of motor vehicles
aged 15-25 only had a 64% usage rate, the lowest in the survey. While these rates appear high, far too many Ohioans still do not buckle up. Ohioâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s safety belt law remains a secondary violation; however, troopers continue zero tolerance enforcement when motorists are stopped for other violations and are found unbuckled. Safety belt usage rates in the 34 states with primary safety belt laws continue to be higher than the rates in states with secondary laws like Ohio (91% versus 79% in 2015). Troopers wrote 118,358 citations in 2015, for failure to wear a safety belt.

V E T E R A N S D AY On Veterans Day, we salute the American veterans and active-duty military whose courage and dedication have protected our freedom and our way of life for generations. We recognize their service and their sacrifice, their selflessness and bravery, their hard work and their faith. Please join in celebrating the men and women of our military, past and present.
Remembering our veterans Any opportunity is a good time to commemorate the bravery and selfless deeds of military personnel, but certain prominent holidays in November make this an especially important time to thank veterans for their service. November 11 is Veterans Day in the United States and Remembrance Day in Canada. It's also known as Armistice Day in other parts of the world. These holidays honor all military veterans who have provided service to their countries, and
that each falls on November 11 is no coincidence, as the day commemorates the anniversary of the end of World War I on the 11th hour of the 11th day of the 11th month of 1918. There are many ways to honor the military at home and abroad in time for the November festivities. The following are just a handful of ways to show appreciation for military men and women. · When dining out, ask your server if you can pay the tab for a soldier or veteran you
see in the restaurant. · Attend a military parade with your family and explain the significance of the day to children in attendance. · Draft letters and send care packages to soldiers currently in service far away from home. · Ask your company if Veterans Day or Remembrance Day can be an observed holiday at your place of business each year to pay homage to servicemen and women. · Visit a military memorial in a city near you. Your town
