“A Playground of Color” now open Refresh your mind and your imagination at A Playground of Color, the JohnsonHumrickhouse Museum’s fourteenth special exhibit of children’s art. Over 300 works are on display, spreading color, energy and whimsy throughout the Montgomery Gallery. The exhibit runs now until March 27 and is also showing concurrently at the Coshocton and West Lafayette Libraries. Artwork for A Playground of Color comes from students in kindergarten through sixth grade who attend elementary and middle schools in Coshocton’s city and county schools as well as from home schools. Works are chosen by the students’ art teachers for their creativity and excellence. The exhibit shows off a remarkable variety of artistic styles and media and includes both two and three-dimensional pieces. Take a walk around the gallery and you’ll understand that these students aren’t just playing with crayons and scissors. They are learning about perspective, primitive cave art, Expressionism, Pop Art, still life, graphic art and more, using watercolors, pastels, mixed mediacollage, pen and crayon. Their work is very good and, of course, fresh as they present a variety of images, from landscapes and animal life to tribal masks and self portraits. Three children’s art classes will be offered
Katherine Miskimens Blackburn Katherine “Kate” (to her friends) “Aunt Dolly” (to her beloved nieces and nephews) Miskimens Blackburn went home to heaven on Wednesday, January 19, 2011 to be with her beloved husband, Stanley, her Dad, Cornelius “Cap” Miskimens and her Mother, Margaret Holskey Miskimens (whom she had not seen since she was 4 years old). She was also greeted by her eight brothers, Glen (Mac), Ralph, Earl, Jack Sr., Everett, Johnny, Charles (Chuck) and Homer and her sister, Nellie, nephew Jack Jr. and nieces Patricia Miskimens Berkfield and Donna Miskimens Miller. She is survived by her son, Stanley W. Blackburn, Jr. and wife, Teresa J. Blackburn of Maggie Valley, NC; granddaughter, Celeste L. Blackburn of Nashville, TN; nephews, Billy Wilson, Sonny Blackburn, Steve, Larry and Homer Miskimens, James Wykel and her nieces Barbara Weaver, Sandy Kittell, and Janet Miskimens. She is also survived by numerous other extended family members including a multitude of great nieces and nephews, great-great nieces and nephews and great-great-great nieces and nephews in Ohio, Kentucky and Oklahoma. All who knew her will sorely miss her and loved her dearly. One of the fondest memories shared by any who visited her was sleeping in the trundle bed after playing a game of Skip-Bo with her, which she usually always won. Until the past three weeks, she continued to crochet slippers for the soldiers in the local VA hospital or the newborns at her local community hospital. “Dolly” was born in Roscoe, Ohio on January 2, 1922 and moved to Brevard County, Florida in 1955. She worked for Cramer’s Honey Bee Apiaries as a processor. She was a founding member of the Frontenac Baptist Church. Friends are welcome to join the Miskimens family in celebrating her memory at the Church of Christ, 1800 Chestnut Street on Saturday, January 29, 2011 at 1:00 p.m. Lloyd Tenney will lead the family in the celebration of her life. 0023_012611

enjoys about scouting, “The fellowship. It’s amazing how you see all these kids from different areas and different groups. I know we’re one council but we’re still spread out in our district – so when you see everyone come together to have fun it’s a great weekend and I like how everybody works together – there were kids bringing other kids up here (main dining hall) last night and scout masters taking their turns – in a rotation schedule. It’s pretty moving”. Pulley continued when asked if the scouts were – as their motto states – truly prepared for the bitter cold temperatures, “I was kind of surprised when it dipped below zero last night and I only saw a couple of scouts come up here, with the thin sleeping bags. Boy Scouts know how to camp – you have a breakdown beforehand so the kids know what to bring out. I hope today’s events all go fine. We have an event today where the scouts have to boil an egg – that will be a fun event. I look forward to seeing that – you have to build a fire and then boil an egg.” Troop 419 meets Tuesday evenings at 6:30 at the West Lafayette United Methodist Church. Nine year old Webelo scout Caleb Barker, a member of Pack 402, which meets at Grace United Methodist Church in Coshocton, said this about the Friday night campout, “I thought that the first few minutes were below freezing

The Muskingum Valley Scout Reservation, located near the Conesville AEP plant, played host this past weekend to over 150 scouts in their quest to earn a badge and nuggets in the annual Klondike Derby. The event was coordinated by assistant scout master Bryan Lanzer and scout master Sam Pulley of Troop 419 in West Lafayette. Lanzer remarked, “Well, we wanted the snow but we didn’t want this bitter cold. We’re doing pretty well – we only had about eight boys come in out of 160, so they’re prepared. They’ve been doing real well”. Lanzer added that the purpose of the Klondike Derby is to have a winter camp-out and to help the scouts prepare for a winter type of environment. “This is normally the first camp-out for some of the Webelos in a winter camp – before they’ll join their Boy Scout troop. It gets them out and lets them experience this. The Klondike Derby is where the scouts pull a sled (handmade) around to different stations, they’ll do first aid, fire building, and the cub scouts will be digging for gold and doing things like that. They’ll get a patch and they earn nuggets for things they’re doing, and we’ll have an auction at the end of the day where they can spend their nuggets on things like candy and twelve packs of pop and stuff like that”. Pulley commented when asked what he

Cook to give lecture at COTC Newark campus The public is encouraged to attend The Ohio State University at Newark’s upcoming Faculty Lecture Series (FLS) at 7 p.m. on Thursday, Feb. 3 in the John Gilbert Reese Center. The lecture, presented by Robert Cook, Ph.D., is titled “Border Issues: Culture Contact and Change in Southern Ohio, ca. A.D. 1000-1650.” The FLS is free and open to the public. Light refreshments are served at a reception which follows the lecture. Cook will discuss his research on the development and social complexity of village farming societies that occupied southern Ohio from A.D. 1000 until 1650. He will focus on the development of family and political life, particularly with respect to long-distance interaction with more complex neighbors. He will also discuss how his research advances our understanding of migration and multiethnic groups, major topics of importance in the world today. Cook’s educational background in anthropology includes Michigan State University, where he earned a Ph.D.; the University of Cincinnati, where he earned an M.A.; and Kent State University, where he earned his B.A. He joined the Ohio State University in 2004 and has been teaching in Newark since 2005. The Faculty Lecture Series is a forum in which faculty share their areas of expertise. In this forum, students learn outside the classroom and the community can participate in a lively discussion and exchange of ideas. It is hosted by William L. MacDonald, Ph.D., Dean/Director of Ohio State Newark. To RSVP, call (740) 364-9517 or e-mail rsvp-newark@osu.edu before Feb. 2. RSVP’s are not required but will help ensure adequate seating and refreshments.

February 1st, 1951 Yet another Coshocton County native had served his country well like so many before and after him. Col. Clarence C. Park had reached the statutory age of 60 and was retiring from the United States Army. A native of Bakersville, Park was employed as a teacher from 1908 – 1912. The next year, he accepted a civilian position with the navy in Guam and in 1917 was named second lieutenant and saw action in France in 1918. In 1931, he completed an advanced artillery course and stayed on to teach the class. Park’s awards and other deeds are too numerous to name, but he served his country and county to the very best of his ability. After retirement, he and his wife planned to move to Texas.

The Coshocton Hospital Board of Trustees announced they have appointed Robert D. Miller, FHFMA, to the position of Coshocton Hospital Chief Executive Officer (CEO). Miller has served in the role of acting CEO and CFO since August when a search for a CEO was initiated after the retirement of the previous administrator, Gregory Nowak. “Mr. Miller has proven to us through his leadership and accomplishments during the past six months as acting CEO that he is indeed the person qualified to lead Coshocton Hospital going forward,” said board chairman Jim Brown, president, Classic Auto Supply Company. “With Bob, we get a CEO who has proven his dedication to our patients, staff, physicians and our community from the beginning by setting his direction for the growth and financial viability of the hospital, and has worked aggressively to put many of his initiatives into place.” Miller joined Coshocton Hospital as the director of accounting in January 2001 and was promoted to chief financial officer in 2004. His previous experience included CFO, finance director and financial consulting responsibilities with hospitals in Huntington, Charleston, Wheeling and New Martinsville, W.V. He graduated from West Virginia Institute of Technology with a Bachelor of Science in Accounting, and earned his Master of Science in Financial Management from Mount Vernon Nazarene University in 2006. “Coshocton Hospital has a 101-year heritage of serving our community, a fact we look to with pride. But now we begin setting our direction toward meeting the future health care needs of our communities with the professionalism, quality and compassionate care our patients expect and deserve,” Miller said about his plans for the hospital system. “Like any rural hospital, we face financial challenges, but our staff and physicians share the enthusiasm to meet those challenges with renewed commitments to service

direction. In the past three years, we have seen Income tax receipts plunge from a high of $4.8 million to $4 million in 2009, a 16.6% decrease. 2010 showed we hopefully found the bottom when income was finally up 1.4% over 2009, a small amount but encouraging none the less. Combine the efforts of the administration, department heads and supervisors, with union concessions on wage freezes and benefit reductions, you can see how we managed to us stay a step ahead of that bear. In fact, even with the 16% reduction, we were able for the first time in 3 years to finish the General Fund in the black with an ending balance of $82,374.00 and the total of all funds, a plus $5,448,085. I personally want to thank all the department heads for working earnestly to tighten the belt with every possible expense. I also want to thank all the employees, both union and non-union, who saw the same need and continue to labor with fewer hands to help, sometimes longer hours and with less compensation. That scenario is not reflective of the value of their work, but in the fiscal reality of the world we live in I am so appreciative of this council, the leadership it has taken and its willingness to work with me on the difficulties we face. Together we have to balance fighting off the bear and making a new way in the wilderness, a way we’ve never been before. The phrase “re-inventing ourselves” is more than a cheap political cliche’, it’s a necessary standard for problem solving. Council is not only willing to ask tough questions but to propose new tools for economic growth like our Job Creation Grant we established. There is not always a unanimous vote, but at the end of the day, the end of the year, we measure our progress by the performance and quality of the services we provided. We joined together with the Port Authority to create a Main Street Task Force to examine the challenges of the current day, including small town main streets and propose a game-plan to revitalize and fill the storefronts again. With the continued support of the city and county and the recent appointment of a permanent director, I look forward to seeing job retention and expansion efforts. I’m confident that Dorothy
Skowrunski has the skills, experience, resolve and demeanor that this position requires. Considering the financial restraints we’re subjected to, we still actively pursue and plan for the future. There were several significant projects we accomplished. Perhaps the most visible was the 2 mile repaving of South Second Street. Nearly a $1,000,000 project, we were able to obtain federal ARC funds for 80% because of its potential economic impact. The majority of the city’s new business additions have occurred on this major thoroughfare with even more good location opportunities. One of my priorities has always been to improve the appearance and encourage cleaning up the city. To this end, with the help of our local Ohio Regional Development Corporation, Coshocton accepted the lead fiscal responsibility to administer the Neighborhood Stabilization Program for a 3 county area. Being granted the largest share of this pot, we received $314,000 to remove blighted properties in residential neighborhoods. With that, we have removed 23 of these abandoned eyesores capped with the 15th Street project of the former Home Candy site. This included the remediation of hazardous waste and razing of the dilapidated buildings. We’ll complete the final grading this he last few years, spring. the recession bear has I’m most proud been on our trail, close to have joined with enough to feel his breath, the Group WorkCamp see his claws.

The city’s sincerest appreciation goes to all our local volunteers who helped prepare for the camp, raised or donated money for the materials, and to Coshocton High School that housed and fed the campers. This endeavor received the most overwhelming support from the community that I’ve ever seen. It’s one thing to improve the community through demolishing blighted Neighborhood Stabilization houses, but to help improve properties at no cost to the residents, had a tremendous positive effect both on the residents and the property value in their neighborhoods.
State of the City
Mr. President, members of Council, guests and citizens, To consider where we are, and where we’re heading, we start by looking where we have been. 2011 marks the bicentennial anniversary of Coshocton County, only 8 years after Ohio became the 17th state. For us, 200 years can seem like ancient history but in the grand scheme of time, it’s but a blink. For the frontiersman, Ohio was carved out of what was then known as “The Northwest Territory”. This was a land of abundant natural resources; great rivers and lakes, fertile soil for crops, plenty of wildlife for food, and open spaces for growth. It am so appreciative was a place to live and of this council, the work. leadership it has taken Today we can and its willingness to work look back and chuckle with me on the difficulties that this far eastern we face. Together we have section of what we call to balance fighting off the the “Midwest” was bear and making a new way once called “the Great in the wilderness, a way Northwest”. We can we’ve never been before. respect them for their The phrase “re-inventing rugged determination ourselves” is more than a but we likely wouldn’t cheap political cliche’, it’s trade that for an a necessary standard for “emergency trip” to problem solving. WalMart! Cutting trees to make shelter, and fishing and hunting to feed the family may not be our lifestyle now but what really has changed? You might have arrived here in a van instead of a wagon but I’ll bet yours had more than 1 horsepower. In choosing a place to live and work, the same factors remain; we seek a place that provides the quality of life we want and a means to support it. 200 years later, the old expression still rings true, “the more things change, the more they remain the same”. We need only to fill in the blanks. Col. Henry Bouquet then, Jerry Stenner now. Telegraphs then, cell phones now. Logging and trading then, Organic Technologies now. The comparison is, it was a great place to live and a land of opportunity then, so it still is now. Some days we chase the bear, some days the bear chases us. The last few years, the recession bear has been on our trail, close enough to feel his breath, see his claws. All governments have felt the effects of this economy and the weariness of this chase. This race cannot be for those who faint quickly, nor run looking over their shoulders at the past thinking we only need to return to a former time. Though we have signs that there is a little more distance between us, the bear is still on our trail. We may see years to recover from the hit of this global slugfest, but continuing the next 200 years will not come from running to stay ahead, but running with a purpose and

(ARA) - When the best two professional football teams square off at Cowboys Stadium in Dallas on Feb. 6, party goers in parking lots and homes across the United States will expect their hosts to put on the ultimate football party. Last year’s Saints vs. Colts game had a record breaking audience of more than 106 million viewers, and this year’s big game is bound to have just as many people gathering to watch. But watching the game is only part of the fun. It’s the food, the camaraderie and fun that needs to measure up with fans to truly make it the biggest football party of the year. Joe Cahn, widely known as the Commissioner of Tailgating, has spent 14 years on the road, tailgating with football fans across the country. “Oh, I love a great football party - the fans in team colors, the grills smokin’ and the good times for all.” This season, Joe is sharing his party tips and watching tailgating teams compete for a spot in the Bing National Tailgating Championship

The Ohio State University at Newark and Central Ohio Technical College (COTC) will host College Goal Sunday, a free state-wide college financial aid event, on Feb. 13 at 2 p.m. in the John Gilbert Reese Center. At College Goal Sunday, college-bound students and parents can receive expert assistance in completing the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA). The FAFSA is the federal application that is required to receive federal financial aid including the Federal Pell Grant and student loans as well as need-based state grants. While walk-ins are welcome, due to the great demand expected for assistance in completing the FASFA, families are encouraged to register for this event at www.ohiocollegegoalsunday. org or by calling 1-877-428-8246. The FAFSA is the key to funding a college education and helping families overcome financial barriers that otherwise prevent students from attending first-choice institutions. Studies show that a student is 50 percent more likely to attend college when they complete the FAFSA. College Goal Sunday is presented by the Ohio Association of Student Financial Aid Administrators (OASFAA) and endorsed by the Ohio Board of Regents. OASFAA is a non-profit, professional organization for individuals actively engaged in the administration of financial aid within the State of Ohio for higher education. As an educational

February’s monthly test of outdoor warning sirens will be Wednesday, Feb. 2 at 10 a.m. The monthly test will also promote public awareness of the seven warning sirens located throughout the count. These seven sirens are located at Bakersville, Conesville, Coshocton City, Canal Lewisville, Pleasant Valley, West Lafayette, and Walhonding Valley Fire Stations. These areas are heavier populated communities where more residents are able to hear the sirens. Each siren is capable of notifying the public of a possible tornado or fire. As a reminder, the county’s tornado siren test will occur on the first Wednesday of each month at 10 a.m. During the monthly test, the alert tone will sound for one minute. In conjunction with the sirens, WTNS will be conducting a monthly Emergency Alert System (EAS) test. This will notify residents that the sirens and EAS is only a test. Bakersville Fire Department will be excused from the monthly test as their sirens are tested daily at Noon.

Lanham proud to be a girl-centric and girl-driven environment where a girl finds courage to explore new worlds and adventures, confidence to believe in herself and her abilities, character to stand by her values and connections to girls from every background. It is also the place where girls return those gifts by becoming the next generation of women leaders through service and reinvestment in their communities. Girl Scouts exists to address the ever-
changing needs of today’s girls. As members, girls build strong self-esteem and learn globally marketable skills such as financial literacy and budgeting, teamwork and consensus building, resourcefulness and respect for the environment, and appreciation of the arts. Girls Scouts is open to girls ages 5 - 17. A girl or adult who meets or can meet membership requirements shall not be denied admission to Girl Scouting due to age or disability, or because of race, color, ethnicity, religion, national origin or socioeconomic status. As of Oct. 1, 2009, Girl Scouts of Ohio’s Heartland Council serves the girls and adult volunteers in 30 counties. Girl Scouts is a United Way agency. If interested in this program, call the United Way for contact information at 622-4567. The Board of Control and staff of United Way of Coshocton County, Inc. would like to congratulate and thank Tammy Lanham for being recognized as a person in our community who has willingly volunteered her time and talents to improve the lives of the people in our community.

We created another partnership with the Coshocton City Schools and completed a land swap that gave the Himebaugh Lot to the city in exchange for the softball diamonds at Stewart Field. We’re developing an inner-city park featuring a concrete skatepark, walk path and ball courts. Private fund-raising has begun and ground-breaking took place last Friday for the basketball court/ice skating area. This will be a multi-year, several hundred thousand dollar project, but I am confident we can achieve this vision and become a valuable asset to our residents and attract visitors and tourists to our city. A private citizens’ group was formed to help develop and advise us in the skatepark development. They have established a website to give progress updates and solicit funds. You can visit it at www.coshoctonskatepark.org When trying to summarize this past year, there are many more highlights and achievements worth noting, so many that trying to make an exhaustive list would undoubtedly leave something off. However, there are some that we’ll build on in 2011. The first one is to acknowledge the three year effort preparing for the Bicentennial celebration.

I want to encourage all our residents to take pride in their property and get involved in beautifying your homes, businesses and neighborhoods. A citizen’s committee, with the help of Clary Gardens, is spearheading this effort. The City’s major project this year will be to rebuild the Sheridan Road infrastructure. One of our most continuous sources of waterline breaks, we want to replace the waterlines around the loop and then repave the roads.

West Lafayette Rotary announces Student of the Month
Placing for the Pinewood Derby
by mark fortune
Tracy Bowman, who coordinated the event for Cub Pack 438, said, “The boys have all been given Pinewood Derby kits and they make cars, or trucks, anything they want to make, out of those kits. The cars are all different shapes, colors and sizes. Every car must weigh at least five ounces. They get everything weighed in and put them in the pits. We have brackets, their name is called and they race down the track. We have a “best of show”, and we have winners in each den. The boys vote on the “best of show” themselves. That is the best looking car of all their friends. We give the boys their blocks of wood in December and some of them just finished them.” Bowman also added her appreciation for the many volunteers that helped with the Pinewood Derby. Bowman explained that the importance of the Pinewood Derby goes far beyond the finish line, saying, “The boys all working together, having fun, working with their parents, their grandparents, their siblings, everybody just getting together and making sure that the boys have a lot of fun doing what they do. It’s not about the competition – they just need to have fun. That’s the main thing of cub scouting.” Den winners will move on to the district competition which will be held at West Lafayette later this winter.
* Get your car serviced to see if you have any major issues that could leave you stranded in bad weather. * Make sure your battery has enough power to start your car in cold weather. * Make sure you have the proper amount of coolant to avoid freezing and consult your owner’s manual to see if you should change the coolant/water ratios. * Fill up on wiper fluid and inspect your windshield wipers. * Check tires for cracks and worn tread. Make sure your tire pressure is at recommended levels as colder air can cause them to deflate. * Stock your vehicle with emergency items like a shovel, sand, blankets and jumper cables. These preparations can also help protect your vehicle from winter wear: * If you drive a truck, spray-on truck bedliners, such as those offered by LINE-X, can help protect your truck bed from rust and other negative effects of road salt and extreme temperature changes. LINE-X Protective Coatings has also been used to protect many of the nation’s bridges from corrosion, as well as the walls of the Pentagon against blast mitigation, so it has the reputation for standing up to the elements year round. More information can be found at www.LineX.com. * Wax your car before winter hits. While you might think of waxing as more of a cosmetic treatment, it can also protect your car’s paint from road salt and scratching caused by extra sand on other debris on the road. * Wash your car frequently in the winter to remove rust-causing agents. Pay special attention to the undercarriage of your vehicle and the wheel wells, as these are often the first areas to rust.

It’s Monday morning and you’re already running late to work.

She is currently a member of the Coshocton County Youth Leadership class for 2011. Community activities are numerous. She was a cast member of the 2010 “The Princess and the Pea” production sponsored by the Coshocton Airport Amphitheatre. 4-H consumes most of her time as a member of This-N-That 4-H club, currently serving as president, and a member of the Junior Leader Club. She takes piano lesson and hip-hop and ballet with Jody’s Dance Studio to enhance her individual diversity. Volunteerism is a passion for Celia as she was a Coshocton County Memorial Hospital volunteer during the summer of 2010, a library volunteer at West Lafayette, and her most favorite volunteer work, Relay for Life. 2011 will be her fifth year for that participation and is very important to her as so many of her family have had cancer. Another highlight was being chosen to serve as 2010 district representative for Citizenship Washington Focus week. Celia credits her mother in helping her to be independent and confident, resulting in giving her the courage to be involved and think for herself.

Protect your home during severe weather (ARA) - Energy costs, burst pipes, ice dams, warmer climates or even just a weekend on chimney fires, and power outages are all potential hazards during the winter months as a result of severe weather. It is important to minimize the inconvenience and damage that ensues. “A few precautions can help protect you from serious losses and disruptions this season,” says Lyman Munson, vice president of risk services at Fireman’s Fund Insurance Company. “Protecting your home is vital to keeping your family safe and comfortable in the winter months.” Indoor floods While home fires make headlines, water damage is more common and often just as severe. The most frequent cause is faulty or broken pipes. In fact, Fireman’s Fund Personal Risk Consultants see a surge in water damage during the first three months of the year, when pipes are most likely to freeze and burst. Be sure to insulate exposed pipes. If you leave your home to spend time in

the ski slopes, always leave the heat on in your home and set it to at least 55 degrees. Don’t let high fuel prices tempt you into going lower. The pipes that come in through your foundation or run through external walls can reach temperatures much lower than the setting on your thermostat. Have someone check on your home while you are away. A foolproof way to protect your home from broken or leaking pipes at any time of year is to install an automatic water shutoff system. Attached to your home’s main incoming water line, the device senses increased water flow caused by a burst pipe and automatically shuts the system off. Fireman’s Fund Insurance Company recommends the Leak Defense System from Sentinel Hydrosolutions, LLC and the FloLogic System. A premium discount is available to policyholders who use this system, so let your insurance agent know if you install one. Back up generators Power outages can cause many problems from food spoilage to basement flooding. Install back-up generators to power all of your home’s critical systems including sump pumps, security and fire alarm systems, and heating systems. Chimney and furnace fires While fire presents a year-round risk, certain causes of fire occur more frequently during the winter. Chimneys, boilers and furnaces are particular risks. Approximately 25,000 residential fires begin in a fireplace or chimney every year, according to the Consumer Product Safety Commission. Why so many? Over time, a layer of unburned carbon-based residues (sometimes referred to as fireplace creosote) builds up along the inside walls of your chimney and can eventually catch fire. The solution is to have a trusted, professional chimneysweep clean and inspect your chimney annually. An annual inspection is just as important for those with furnaces and boilers. And remember, your furnace room should never be used for general storage. Wood scraps, old books, paint, solvents and other flammable liquids are

Ice dams and old trees Snow and ice storms can create a number of potential threats to your home. One of these is ice damming, which occurs in the days after a snowstorm. Icicles hanging from your eaves, while they may be beautiful, usually indicate that a dangerous ice dam has formed. An ice dam is a build-up of ice that can form at the edge of your roof when snow melts but is blocked from draining. When more snow melts and is trapped behind this ice, the resulting water backup can soak through your roof and cause damage to ceilings, walls and more. The most common causes of ice dams are clogged gutters and insufficient insulation, both of which are easy to remedy. Mature trees on your property represent another potential hazard during storms. Strong winds or frozen water that covers old branches with a heavy coat of ice can lead to failure and collapse, a clear threat to your home or other nearby structures. Have a trusted horticultural expert take a look at your property’s mature trees and prune or cut down unstable specimens.
