Tuesday, June 16-17. “Coshocton has been in GOBA’s history for many years,” said Julie Van Winkle, director of the event. “It has great roads and wonderful things to see and do. In the past, we also have received a warm welcome and the support of the community.” GOBA is an annual event organized by Columbus Outdoor Pursuits that tries to expose bicyclists to different parts of Ohio. Coshocton was included on the tour in 1992, 1999 and 2008. Van Winkle was recently in town to work with Jan Myers, director of the Coshocton County Convention and Visitors Bureau, on plans for GOBA’s 2014 stop in Coshocton. The bicyclists will camp at Lake Park and be provided with opportunities to explore the area. “We provide a budget for entertainment and things like bus shuttles around town,” Van Winkle said. GOBA also encourages area nonprofits to use its stops in towns as an opportunity to raise funds by selling food and beverages to the riders, since they are responsible for their meals. “We are in the beginning stages of our plans, but we know we want the bicyclists to see Roscoe Village, the canal boat and possibly do a tour of Annin,” Myers said. “We also want to have activities downtown at the library and

musical entertainment at various venues.” The events they plan will be geared toward a variety of ages. “We have a lot of families take part in GOBA,” Van Winkle said. She also said that about 20 percent of the participants are under the age of 20 and there are usually several hundred people age 75 and older. The riders also come from all over. “Seventy to 75 percent of them are from Ohio, but we also get people from at least 40 other states, Canada, Nova Scotia and even Switzerland,” Van Winkle
said. GOBA participants bike about 50 miles a day, but are not responsible for hauling their own gear. Semi trucks are loaded up with luggage and camping supplies and meet the bicyclists at each of their stops. More than 2,000 people are expected to pack their bags and peddle their way through Ohio. “GOBA is basically a week-long biking and camping tour of Ohio,” Van Winkle said. “The route takes you on back roads that are usually less traveled, but the most scenic.” Participants also are encouraged to take their time to enjoy Ohio’s landscape and unique attractions in the towns GOBA schedules stops at. “It’s not a race,” Van Winkle said. “We just ask that you be in the next town by 5 p.m.” Riders are required to wear helmets, but a certain type of bike or clothes made for biking are not necessary. “The cheaper bikes usually don’t make it because the ride is hard on them,” Van Winkle said. “I’ve also found that having the right seat to fit your structure is critical.” Bikers also don’t need to worry about getting lost. Temporary paint is used to put arrows on roads, paper maps are available and so are GPS downloadable ones. Volunteers also are along the route to help corral the riders. To receive information on GOBA and the cost to participate, call 614-273-0811, visit www.goba.com or e-mail gobainfo@goba. com. The deadline to register for GOBA is Wednesday, May 14. Anyone interested in volunteering to assist GOBA participants during their stay in Coshocton can contact Myers at 622-4877. Her co-chair is Amy Hasseman and they are in the process of organizing several committees. “We are excited and thrilled that they are coming back for two nights,” Myers said. “It’s a real positive for Coshocton and plus it’s a cool thing to walk down Main Street and see bikes

NEWARK − Park National Corporation (Park) (NYSE MKT: PRK) reported financial results for the three-months (fourth quarter) and twelvemonths (year) ended December 31, 2013. Park’s board of directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.94 per common share, payable on March 10, to common shareholders of record as of Feb. 21. Park’s quarterly and annual earnings per common share rose compared to 2012, and loan growth continued in both the retail and commercial categories. Net income for the fourth quarter of 2013 was $17.5 million, compared to $16.3 million for the same period in 2012. Net income for the year 2013 was $77.2 million, an increase of $13.0 million, or 20.3 percent, above the 2012 results excluding the gain related to the sale of the Vision Bank business (on Feb. 16, 2012). Net income for the 2012 year was $78.6 million, which included a gain of $22.2 million ($14.4 million after-tax) from the sale of substantially all of the performing loans, operating assets and the liabilities of Vision Bank. Excluding the gain from the sale of the Vision Bank business in 2012, net income for the year 2012 would have been $64.2 million. Net income per diluted common share for the fourth quarter of 2013 was $1.13, compared to $1.06 in the same period of 2012. Net income per diluted common share for the year 2013 was $5.01, an increase from 2012’s net income per diluted common share of $4.88. Excluding the gain on sale of the Vision Bank business, net income per diluted common share would have been $3.95 for the 2012 year. “Loan growth and new customer relationships in 2013 exceeded our expectations,” said Park Chairman Dan DeLawder. “Individuals and businesses rely on our local lenders’ experience and dedication to service. That caused our loan balances to increase more than market conditions suggest might be possible. The new relationships established during the year will continue to distinguish Park and our affiliates in the communities we serve.” Park’s community-banking subsidiary in Ohio, The Park National Bank, reported net income of $75.6 million for the 2013 year, compared to net income of $87.1 million in 2012. The Park National Bank had total assets of $6.5 billion at both December 31, 2013 and 2012. This performance generated a return on average assets of 1.15 percent and 1.33 percent for the bank for the years 2013 and 2012, respectively. The Park National Bank loan portfolio growth continued in the fourth quarter. At Dec. 31, 2013 the bank reported $4.56 billion in loans outstanding, which is a $51 million increase over the $4.51 billion outstanding at Sept. 30, 2013. It also represents a 12-month increase of $190 million, compared to the loans outstanding of $4.37 billion at Dec. 31, 2012. Headquartered in Newark, Ohio, Park National Corporation had $6.6 billion in total assets (as of Dec. 31, 2013). Park consists of 11 community bank divisions, a non-bank subsidiary and two specialty finance companies. Park’s Ohio-based banking operations are conducted through Park subsidiary The Park National Bank and its divisions, which include Fairfield National Bank Division, Richland Bank Division, Century National Bank Division, First-Knox National Bank Division, Farmers & Savings Bank Division, United Bank Division, Second National Bank Division, Security National Bank Division, Unity National Bank Division, and The Park National Bank of Southwest Ohio & Northern Kentucky Division, and Scope Leasing, Inc. (d.b.a. Scope Aircraft Finance). Park also includes Guardian Financial Services Company (d.b.a. Guardian Finance Company) and SE Property Holdings, LLC.

Rep. Bill Hayes announces candidacy for Ohio House CONTRIBUTED TO THE BEACON
HARRISON TOWNSHIP - State Representative Bill Hayes (R-Harrison Township) has announced his candidacy to serve as representative of the 72nd Ohio House District, which encompasses all of Coshocton and Perry counties, as well as part of Licking County, during the 131st General Assembly. “Serving as a member of the House has given me the opportunity to apply my background in education, local government and law to some of Ohio’s most important issues,” said Rep. Hayes. “It has been an honor to be our community’s voice in Columbus, and I hope to continue the work of the people for another term.” Rep. Hayes currently serves as the chair of the Finance and Appropriations Subcommittee on Primary and Secondary Education. He also is a member of the Finance and Appropriations Committee, the Education Committee, and the Judiciary Committee. In addition to supporting legislative initiatives to improve Ohio’s economic climate, create jobs, and keep Ohio’s finances balanced and sustainable, Rep. Hayes has sponsored numerous bills with a focus on education and students, specifically: • House Bill 32, which gives school districts more flexibility by changing the minimum school year requirement from days to hours. • House Bill 303, which protects students’ right to religious expression. • House Bill 304, which gives the same access to school facilities to students who wish to conduct a meeting for the purpose of religious expression as is given to secular student groups. • House Bill 334, which would help make Ohio’s schools safer by addressing dangerous behavior among students, giving districts the authority to expel students in certain situations in which a student threatens the safety of other students and staff. • House Bill 352, which sets standards for therapeutic wilderness camps. Rep. Hayes has worked as an attorney in Pataskala for more than 35 years. His previous public service experience also includes being a school board member in two districts, a court magistrate, and a city law director. He is proud of his vast array of work experience, which includes such jobs as a milk delivery man, truck driver, day camp staff member, farm hand, math teacher, and sports coach. Rep. Hayes and his wife of nearly 50 years, Carolyn, have three children and six grandchildren. The Beacon wants your opinion! Have an opinion or want to comment on something you’ve read in The Beacon?

Pomerene Center purchases PARK Space to fix the wall attached to the civic hall. “That was an issue brought up by community leaders that we know needs fixed,” Cornell said. “We are hoping to have the funds for it by the end of June.” A seven member team also is being assembled to work with an architect on designs for the space and how temporary works of art can be displayed there. “Business follows people,” Cornell said. “Hopefully if we create a place of interest we can get people to step out on Main Street and business opportunities will develop.” Those interested in becoming part of the
committee to help develop the PARK Space are welcome to contact the Pomerene Center at 6220326. Also helping to make the space a place of interest will be funds from the National Endowment for the Arts (NEA) Our Town grant. The Pomerene Center was awarded $50,000 to bring people together to create two new temporary public works of art. According to a press release, NEA Our Town grant money will be used in Coshocton to fund the advancement, documentation and evaluation of the Pomerene Center’s Community Studio

COSHOCTON – On Jan. 24, the Pomerene Center for the Arts became the proud owner of the PARK Space on Main Street. “We are really happy,” said Anne Cornell, artistic director and community studio artist. “We feel like it is our job (to do something with the space) and a privilege to be able to work with the community and come up with something positive there.” The PARK Space is located across from the courthouse where the former Park Hotel stood before burning down in July 2005. “It was a large empty space that was detracting from downtown in a major way,” Cornell said. The Pomerene Center brought life back to the space by holding events and displaying art there, but the five-year lease it had on the property was set to expire in April. “Right now the arts are playing a large role in revitalization and economic development in urban areas,” Cornell said. “We hope we can be part of the larger solution for Coshocton.” The Pomerene Center was able to purchase the lot with the help of donations from Scott Butler who graduated from Coshocton High School in 1972 and locals Robert and Carolyn Simpson. “Our main goal is to create a space that we can full up with people,” Cornell said. “If you look at older pictures of downtown that’s the way it was.” Over the past couple of years, she has learned a lot about what it will take to do that. “Having a way to get from the front to the back of the lot is very important,” Cornell said. “People also have to really have a reason to step off the sidewalk and into the open space.” Plans also are in the works to secure funding

crossing the goal line. And good investors know how to choose those investments that have the potential to provide them with the gains they need to keep moving toward their own goals, such as a comfortable retirement. That’s why, at every stage of your life, you will need to own a reasonable percentage of growth oriented investments, such as stocks. • A strong defense — Even a good offense usually isn’t enough to vault a team into the Super Bowl, which is why most participants in the Big Game also have strong defenses. Similarly, the best investors don’t just put all their money in a single type of aggressive instrument and then forget about it — they know that a downturn affecting this particular asset class could prove extremely costly. Instead, they “defend” their portfolios by diversifying their holdings among a range of investments: stocks, bonds, government securities, certificates of deposit, and so on. And you can do the same. Keep in mind, however, that although diversification can help reduce the impact of volatility on your portfolio, it can’t guarantee a profit or always protect against loss. • Perseverance — Every team that makes it to the Super Bowl has had to overcome some type of adversity — injuries to key players, a difficult schedule, bad weather, playoff games against good opponents, etc. Successful investors have also had to overcome hurdles, such as bear

If you’re a football fan (and probably even if you aren’t), you are aware that the Super Bowl was last Sunday. This year’s event was unique in that it was the first Super Bowl held in an outdoor, cold-weather site — New Jersey, to be specific. However, the 2014 game shares many similarities to past Super Bowls in terms of what it took for the two teams to arrive at this point. And some of these same characteristics apply to successful investors. Here are a few of these shared traits: • A good offense — Most Super Bowl teams are adept at moving up and down the field and

markets, bad economies, political battles and changing tax laws. Through it all, these investors stay invested, follow a long-term strategy and continue to look for new opportunities. You can follow their example by not jumping out of the market when the going looks tough and not overreacting to scary-sounding headlines. • Good coaching — Super Bowl teams contain many fine players, but they still need coaches who can analyze situations and make the right decisions at the right times. Smart, experienced investors also benefit from “coaching” — in the form of guidance from financial professionals. It’s not always easy for busy people to study the financial markets, stay current on investment news and review their portfolios on their own. By working with a financial professional who knows your situation, needs, goals and risk tolerance, you will find it much easier to navigate the increasingly complex investment world. As we’ve seen, some of the same factors that go into producing a team capable of reaching the Super Bowl are also relevant to investors who want to reach their own goals. By incorporating these behaviors and attitudes into your own investment strategy, you’ll be following a pretty good “game plan.” This article was written by Edward Jones for use by your local Edward Jones Financial Advisor Doug Speicher.

Memories
The way we were... 1954
The old cemetery in Roscoe Village was about to receive a facelift. The then 121-year-old cemetery was to be completely rehabilitated that spring by the Roscoe Village officials and citizens. Mayor William J. Lynch and other citizens were spearheading the move to beautify and preserve these long-forgotten graves. The Mayor hoped to have the work completed before Memorial Day. The deed for the burial ground was turned over to the trustees of the former Roscoe Methodist Episcopal Church on March 7, 1832 by Samuel and Lydia Brown for $50. The goal of the cleanup was to hopefully identify each person buried there, if possible, and to replace the old headstones with new ones, if funds were available.

The Coshocton County Mental Health Association was disbanding. This 16-year-old association had voted unanimously to disband because the goals they set out for themselves 16 years ago had all been accomplished in the county. The goal had been realized with the opening and growth of the Muskingum Comprehensive Mental Health Center in Zanesville and the Coshocton County Mental Health Clinic located on Fourth Street. It was decided at a special board meeting that with the operations of these facilities, the services of the Coshocton County Mental Health Association was no longer required. Norman Harris, president of the association, expressed thanks to the people of Coshocton County for the interest and support of the Mental Health Association over the last 16 years.

Association for a second year to help students fund community projects that teach them the value of giving back to their communities while gaining experience as agricultural leaders.” Last year, 13 local FFA chapters were awarded funding for projects in a variety of areas including agriculture and emergency safety training, agricultural science, animal welfare, and targeting hunger needs of school children and rural populations. “With the success of the 2013 projects, Ohio FFA is looking forward to working with our partners to help fund another round of diverse, worthwhile community projects,” said FFA Foundation Director Melissa Bell. One notable project from the Waterford FFA in Washington County created an “Agriculture is Science” Day. The goal of this program is to expand elementary students’ knowledge of science, enabling them to become more aware of its relationship with agriculture and natural resources. FFA members are in the process of developing 15 educational stations to be taught at a 4-H camp, Camp Hervidad, to 120 second and third grade students during a six- hour program. All stations are linked to Ohio Department of Education academic content standards, raising the academic relevance of the event. The program is funded by a $38,000 grant provided by the Ohio Department of Agriculture through the Ohio Rural Rehabilitation fund.

Gibbs gives statement on farm bill WASHINGTON, D.C. - U.S. Rep. Bob Gibbs (R-OH) released the following statement on passage of the Farm Bill: “I am pleased to support my colleagues in the House by voting for the House-Senate Conference agreement on the Farm Bill today. I had hoped that these reforms would have gone further, but continuing the status quo is unacceptable. Although this bill did not include Country of Origin Labeling (COOL) reforms, I hope to see additional legislation that addresses these issues regarding livestock trade in the future. This bill will save taxpayers $23 billion and includes sensible reforms to both farm and food stamp programs. The Farm Bill ensures food security for those in need and provides a safety net for our nation’s producers. Now, farmers will have more choices to cover their risks under this conference report. The passage of the Farm Bill will provide certainty to America’s farmers, ranchers and consumers.”

“The Board of Commissioners realized that there may have been some citizens unable to get their dog tag because of the unusual winter weather we’ve been having,” said Sycks. “This extension gives everyone another week and let’s hope the weather cooperates. Not only is it the law to have all dogs registered with the county, it protects owners and their pets. We often get phone calls if a dog is found with a tag attached to their collar. When this happens, we are able to give owner information and get that puppy back home.”

COSHOCTON - Coshocton County Auditor Christine Sycks announces that the registration deadline for the purchase of Dog Tags without penalties has been extended by one week by Commissioners’ Resolution. Ohio R.C. 955.05 requires every person who is the owner, keeper, or harborer of a dog to register their dog with the County Auditor. The registration period has been extended to Feb. 7 due to the extremely cold weather. Fees are $12 per dog or $60 per Kennel Tag. Kennel Tags must be purchased either at the County Auditor’s Office or at TMK in New Bedford. If the extended deadline is missed, penalties double the cost of the tags. If the dog owners cannot make it into the County Auditor’s Office during regular office hours, (Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.), they can also purchase their tag at

additional $11,000 to the village. In two years we have lost approximately $23,000 for our general fund, which is necessary for village operations. This loss in funds and any future cost increases in insurance premiums and utilities will affect our continued level of service. The state has also decided to do away with the estate tax, which averaged $13,000 per year income for us between 2005 and 2013. We have also lost the public utility reimbursement. These are additional reasons we need to find other means of income to sustain our way of operation of the Village that we are so used to having. In 2013 we took a hard look at our finances and decided we needed to find new income for the general fund or in five to six years we would most likely be out of money in that fund. The number one area that will be affected because of these decreases in government funding will most likely be a reduction in our police department. I personally, being a resident here, would not be happy to have a reduction in protection from our police department. All departments have applied for and used grants to help us, but most grants need some sort of matching money and that matching money has been a problem to come up with. Our water and waste water departments are facing similar situations in the future. Over the past years we have seen decreases in the fund carryover balances and have made adjustments

WEST LAFAYETTE - I am presenting the State of the Village report to you using a different approach. To me, the State of the Village is a report of the status of the Village in the year past, in this case, the year 2013. My report will not follow the outline of State of the Village reports that I have presented in the past. This will be different. I think of the financial soundness as being the number one area of concern. Council and Mayor believe things have been somewhat challenging for us over the past several years, financially. I have had meetings with department supervisors in 2013 and they are aware of our fund balances and the financial projections for 2014 and after. We have managed our finances in order to finish in the black each year which gives the appearance to look sound, but from 2011 to 2013, we have lost local government fund income at the rate of approximately 50%. The local government fund started 76 years ago, during the great depression, with the initiation of Ohio’s first sales tax. Part of the original purpose of the 3% sales tax was to provide revenue sharing with local governments on essential services. This revenue sharing was a part of local governments budgeting for 76 years. We have come to rely on that funding because it has been in existence for 76 years. The average collection of local government funds from 2005 to 2010 for the village has been $51,000 per year. In 2011, the Ohio Governor’s administration proposed to cut the Local Government Fund by 25% from July 1, 2011 until June 30, 2012. This cut amounted to an approximate loss to the village of $12,000. Then they proposed a cut of another 25% again from July 1, 2012 until June 30, 2013. This amounted to another loss of an

BY MAYOR JACK PATTERSON to our spending, but there are only so many cuts that can be made without complicating operations. Our Village Administrator and utility employees are aware of how the decreases in funds from government are affecting our general fund and they are doing what they can to maintain a respective level of operation. The police department and our police chief are also watching their budget and reducing spending where possible. The chief maintains a copy of his budget on his computer and is in constant contact with our fiscal officer reviewing account balances. I feel any additional reductions will reduce the efficiency of this fine department. Our volunteer fire department receives its financing through fire contracts with adjoining townships. Although this funding has been adequate, there are still items the department could use but cannot fit into their budget. Upgrades of vehicles are much needed. The fire chief and the volunteer firemen have maintained a great level of protection for all of us. I praise all the employees and those associated with the village operations for their dedication to continuing to make things happen in a positive way. Again, to continue to maintain a close level of service that many residents are used to having, we need to think about a new source of income for the village. We had some employees leave our employment in 2013 and it is always a challenge to the department supervisors to make adjustments. Our last employee to leave us in 2013 was our Fire Chief of many years, Gaylord Hill, retiring on December 31st. Chief Hill gave us fifty five years of service to the fire department. Good luck in your future. We did have a couple new businesses join us in the village in 2013. The Village welcomes Stone Creek Pizza and Shampoodles pet grooming, both located on our Main Street. Circle K expanded their building and added more fuel pumps for the convenience of their customers. I do not intend for this State of the Village report to be a soap box type speech, but the projected financial figures show changes will need to be made. The citizens need to decide. Thank you for your attention and I look forward to continue serving as your Mayor in 2014.

Coshocton State of the City Address Mr. President, members of council, fellow elected officials, co-workers, guests and citizens; there are good reasons to look forward to 2014, and to set the foundation, let’s look at the building stones from 2013. Financially, our various funds were both up and down, or otherwise, flat. Our main source of revenue is the 1½% Income Tax and it was up 2.06%, an increase for the second straight year, and from the pits of 2008 & 2009, we have steadily regained a total of 7.89%. However, to balance that news, the state’s funding was a net reduction of 19.81% which caused the 2013 General Fund revenue to fall 2.2%. The Estate Tax was eliminated in 2012 but we still received $350,000 from estates that were finalized in 2013. We have projected no estate income for 2014 and will have to absorb that 9% loss of our general revenue. From 2012, we brought forward a cash carryover of $230,480., but we’ll start this year with only $120,728. Even with 48% less to start the year, I’m very pleased to say that by living within the dollars given to us, we finished the General Fund in the black for the fourth straight year. For that, I express appreciation to a cooperative council, our administrative team including department heads, the Auditor’s Office and support of our employees. Striving to always be as efficient as possible, City Council and the AFSCME Union approved the final restructuring for a Public Works Department. The reorganization consolidated the Street, Cemetery and Maintenance Departments under one Director, Jim Ruby, and established a new fulltime Assistant Director. This provides us the ability to utilize employees between departments, making our services as lean and efficient as possible. We are immediately seeing the benefit of these changes with much better staffing and equipment for our snow removal this winter. Our major Public Works infrastructure project for 2013 was the re-paving and installation of handicap accessible sidewalks on Chestnut Street. This extensive project went smoothly, but the addition of a fulltime assistant creates an efficient team to share the workload and assure maximum productivity. The Second Street and Chestnut Street projects were both 80% funded by Ohio Department of Transportation (ODOT), for our 20% matching balance we obtained loans each over $200,000. For 2014, ODOT has scheduled the complete paving of State Route 541 from the West to the Southeast Corporation limits. Our match is approximately $400,000. We have already received one grant commitment but we’ll still need another loan for over $200,000 to complete our portion. Tonight, council will vote on a resolution to put a street levy back on the ballot this May. With the critical need for repairing our streets the request is being lowered a half point to 2.4 mills in hope of getting new supporters. Passage of the levy will allow us to use those funds to
MERCER help make these loan payments AND to plan a paving and maintenance schedule for our crumbling streets. Another part of the reorganizing was to establish for the first time, a City Safety Program. After nearly two years in the planning, council adopted a Safety and Security Handbook that becomes the basis of the program. They also approved a part-time Safety Coordinator position that validates the importance we place on our employees. I appreciate that we have an experienced retiree in Tom Scott that is willing to administer this program for a token salary. The value of this program will be seen in increased employee safety and security in the workplace. Our Parks and Recreation Department operates with only a part time director and seasonal employees but we still improved our system. Last year, Director Steve Jones obtained a state grant that helped build a new large shelter at the Otsego Park. 2013 was the final year of our running and maintaining the main ball field at Lake Park. We have enjoyed a great partnership with them for the use of those fields, but with the passage of the park levy and a new lease signed by the Cherokees Baseball Team, our decades long recreation program at their fields came to an end. We will now exclusively focus resources on our own facilities. The levy’s allocation to our Park and Recreation Department of $25,000 a year will provide a refreshing new source of income for our underfunded park program. Our Utilities Department worked closely with Lake Park to meet their EPA mandated changeover from raw to potable water throughout the park. The exchange of our water fees for park land, and the County Commissioner’s Ohio Water Development Authority (OWDA) loan on behalf of the park, helped them meet the imposed
BY MAYOR STEVE MERCER deadlines. It serves as an excellent example of how partnerships between entities can creatively solve issues, save taxpayers money, and solidify the spirit of cooperation we have in this county. We undertook two major infrastructure projects in 2013. The Adams Street Waterline Replacement is a good example of the need to upgrade many old lines throughout the city. This undersized line was a constant maintenance issue and provided poor pressure to those residents. The other more visible capital improvement was the complete refurbishing of the Roscoe Water Tower inside and out. The sandblasting and painting will assure long term sanitary use of that tower and the new color and lettering, recommended by Director Dave McVay, was a welcome improvement to the neighborhood. Tonight, council also has an ordinance on the agenda for a 5 year water and wastewater rate schedule. Arcadis, a national firm, thoroughly examined the utility expenses, capital projections and loans to determine the rates necessary to meet these obligations. Even with the increases, our rates will remain in the lower 1/3 of utilities statewide. This year, I hope to expand more shared services, resources and expertise with other governments and organizations. We are on course with the County Commissioners to finalize an agreement to accept the water and wastewater infrastructure outside the city limits and assume their remaining installation debt. This consolidation into one system that will be owned and maintained by the city has been discussed, examined and negotiated for over 8 years. The approval of the rate ordinance is one of the final stages of this long running goal of having a regional utility system proposed in a 2005 Community Development Plan. Our Fire Department has been able to replace outdated equipment, improve interagency communications, replace worn out fire trucks and retain our high state rating because of the support of the citizens. To better serve their safety, Chief Layton initiated the addition of another tornado siren to the County Emergency system, to be located at the Coshocton City School campus. Coordinating with the County EMA, they will move the one we have at the fire station and we will replace it with a new one. The Chief has obtained an actual I-beam section from the New York Twin Towers. With the help of private funding, he created a memorial in the lobby of the firehouse to honor the safety personnel, and all that lost their lives in the 9-11 terrorist attack on the United States. I want to encourage everyone to stop by and see or touch this significant piece of life-altering American History. In addition to our city services, we see many entities that experienced significant developments in 2013. Perhaps the biggest was

attracted Eugene to his bride was her fiery red hair. “She had red hair,” he said. “And I have always liked redheads.” After a small wedding at Eugene’s parents’ house, Eugene left his young wife to serve our country in the Air Force. He served for two years in the Pacific and became a sergeant by the time his service was over. When he returned home, the two settled down in Coshocton County and prepared to build their lives. The couple started farming and was separated for a time while Eugene worked at the Flexible Company in New York. He eventually bought out part of the company and renamed it, ‘E and R’ for Eugene and Rosalie. He managed the store for a while and Rosalie visited on weekends.

Consider fruit arrangements as a Valentine’s Day gift BY BETH SCOTT
541 Main Street
PHOTO CONTRIBUTED TO THE BEACON
COSHOCTON – Tired of giving your loved ones the same box of chocolates for Valentine’s Day each year? If you’re looking for something a little different, but still delicious, to give your spouse or that special someone this year, consider an edible fruit arrangement from Buehler’s catering. Lesha Cottrill creates these edible arrangements using all fresh fruits from Buehler’s produce department. She uses strawberries, cantaloupe, honeydew, pineapple, and grapes to make her floral designs and cuts them into various shapes using cookie cutters. A cheese cutter is used to give the cantaloupe and honeydew a wavy appearance. For decorations, she uses ribbons and bows from the flower department. They take about an hour and a half to two hours and a half to make, depending on the size of the order. If you still want to incorporate chocolate into your gift, a few strawberries can be covered in a milk chocolate and lightly drizzled with white chocolate to satisfy your sweet tooth. Sizes and

COSHOCTON - In a coordinated effort, the Ohio Sheep Improvement Association and Ohio State University Extension are pleased to announce the 2014 Sheep and Goat Webinar Programs. The Sheep and Goat Webinar Program series was started in 2012 due to an increased need to get educational programming to the sheep and goat producers in the state of Ohio and other states. The Sheep and Goat Webinar programs followed 10 years of “District” type programming. This program offers a wide variety of topics and speakers in most areas of the state of Ohio, but allows the use of speakers from other states, universities, or industry relationships with those speakers attending all of the different sites. In 2014, there are 16 “District” Sheep and Goat Webinar programs offered. All programs will be offered at the OSU Extension- Coshocton Co. Office at 7 p.m. each evening free of charge. The Sheep and Goat Program Webinar series is sponsored by the Ohio Sheep Improvement Association and OSU Extension and will offer the following: • Feb. 3: Roger A. High, The Ohio State University, “The Management Continuum and Success during the Lambing/ Kidding Time Period” • Feb. 10: Jeff McCutcheon and Rory Lewandowski, OSU Extension, “Successfully Producing Small Ruminants in a Forage Based System • Feb. 17: Roger A. High and Tony Nye, The Ohio State University, “Sheep and Goat Breed and Breed Types: Selecting the Right Breed Type for your Market. • Feb. 24: Dr. Richard Ehrhardt, Michigan State University, “Management and Records – What are the important records to make Key Management Decisions for your Sheep Flock or Goat Herd” Please contact Tammi Rogers or Emily Adams to RSVP or with any questions/ concerns regarding the program that you are interested in attending. Cancellation due to inclement weather may also be announced on local radio stations.

State of the City the completion and opening of a new 24 million dollar elementary school to the Coshocton City Campus. Levy support showed the commitment of our citizens to provide the best learning opportunity for our youth, and this state-of-theart facility provides that and consolidates all the students in one school and replaces the three outdated buildings. CLOW Water System purchased the former Pretty Products Warehouse on Clow Lane. They are underway with a multi-million dollar project so they can move a process here, from a current out-of-state provider, used in their growing light pole market. Over 100 years in Coshocton they are still a leading job provider and outstanding community partner. RockTenn celebrated their 150th anniversary which is an amazing achievement considering it began in the midst of the Civil War. They remain an anchor industry as one of Coshocton’s largest employers and corporate partner. Rural King purchased the vacant former Wal-Mart building on Second Street and invested millions to bring that supply chain to our city. Next door to them, Woodbury Outfitters continues to grow by building more warehouse space to their store and adding more locations around Ohio. Three Rivers Energy bought the bankrupt ethanol plant and rescued it from the brink of demolition turning it into a viable production facility. They started up in October with a mostly local workforce of about 35 employees. The salvage value to the financial debacle the former owners caused the city, is that it brought back good jobs for the community and it’s located in the Joint Economic Development District, allowing us to receive income tax revenue. We had numerous new small business start ups. It’s the hope of the entrepreneur that brings new energy and life to cities. I want to feature just a few that have made that kind of impact on the city. Last year I presented a vision to unite the entire community in a common purpose, working together to make us known as: “The Made in USA City” I assembled a Coshocton USA team to help make this happen. Together, this group has developed a logo, established websites and a social media presence. Many meetings led to creative ideas and a framework to proceed. But now it’s time to develop a marketing plan and solicit the resources needed to launch the branding. Recently, Jan Myers and the Convention and Visitor Bureau’s Board stepped up and will assume that role. The CVB is the perfect organization to carry the ball now with its mission to promote and market Coshocton. Jan is full of energy and creativity and I look forward to continuing with her to bring our retailers, manufacturers and tourism
CONTINUED FROM PAGE 12 partners into a united picture of what makes us, “The Made in USA City”. As part of this effort, I see the first-fruit support already shown in businesses like Commonwealth Americana. Presently located in Kiefer Florist, this was created by Ed Kiefer and Robert Colby as a means to showcase Coshocton made goods by local artisans doing authentic, Made in USA products. This business model is giving artists and craftsman the opportunity to share their talents commercially and its success is garnering attention statewide. Another community shaker is Anne Cornell from the Pomerene Center for the Arts. Her drive and determination to make things happen, and to challenge the status quo, has been able to achieve what others can’t even conceive. The latest being to spearhead the purchase last week, by the Pomerene Center, of the former Park Hotel site, from one stubborn owner. She originally secured a 5 year lease for the property allowing them the right to use it instead of it being an unkempt vacant lot in the heart of downtown. Now, armed with a grant she was awarded from the National Endowment for the Arts, she is partnering with the city, to proceed with the design phase for making it a beautiful, permanent Art Park. Lastly, it is these kinds of businesses and industries that will sustain our city. It is the unselfish contributions of civic minded individuals and many groups, churches and organizations that positively build and bond communities. We are a very caring and benevolent people and working together, we will join in common purpose to live in what Dr. Martin Luther King called, “A Beloved Community”. In closing, I want to specifically thank several people for their dedication to the city. To my immediate staff, Jerry Stenner and Cherry Wilson, all the department heads and supervisors, the elected officials, the many appointees on boards, committees and commissions, the employees that daily go about their jobs to make Coshocton a better place, and finally, to my wife Sharon, my greatest supporter, rock, and sounding board without whom this Mayor could not function. May God bless you and bless this city. Thank you! Mayor Steve Mercer

The press release on the grant also states that the purpose of the Community Studio is to encourage the general public to create public art. “We want to pull together people in the community who have talents and passion to help us work on creating art,” Cornell said. “It’s a team process.” During the two-year grant period, Sept. 1, 2013 – Aug. 31, 2015, the Pomerene Center for the Arts will work together with Coshocton City to achieve optimal arts impact. “This is not a total solution to the problems facing our community, but it’s a piece,” Cornell said. “Art is also what we do so we want to step up and do our part to be part of the larger solution.” JOSIE@COSHOCTONCOUNTYBEACON.COM

Myers also is hoping that many of the out of town bicyclists will want to come back to Coshocton after learning about all it has to offer. “Hopefully they will return to see everything they weren’t able to,” she said.

It one of the oldest continuously held annual balloon events in Ohio. The Coshocton Hot Air Balloon Festival Committee composed of dedicated volunteers is establishing itself as a 501(c)3 Non Profit Corporation. The Coshocton County Chamber of Commerce has decided to focus on other areas of its mission and will not be hosting the festival this year. The Coshocton Hot Air Balloon Festival will continue to be an admission free community event. Frontier Power is again the major sponsor for the annual event along with many other Coshocton businesses. “It takes dozens of community sponsors and hundreds of volunteer hours each year to make the festival a reality,” Tom Roahrig, committee member, said. “There never has been a charge for watching the balloons or an admission charge to the Fairground, or a parking fee, or a ticket of any kind for the grandstand musical entertainment, the balloon glow or the fireworks. It is a fun free family event and we want to keep it that way.
