Annually, there are no more than 30 deer killed by motorists in Coshocton County and last year, the cost to have them disposed was just over $1,000.

The commissioners decided that since funds are available for the deer disposal program to run it until the funds are exhausted and in the meantime, Wherley can search for someone to take it over.

The commissioners also met with Tonya Lock to sign two contracts, the Common Please and Clerk of Courts contracts. Lock reported that last year, $31,256 was brought in, and the maximum amount contracted this year is $27,523. The amount paid into the general fund in the Clerk of Courts contract was $30,334.

The commissioners also approved: - A motion to approve the minutes of the last meeting as presented - A motion to sign the 2014 Common Pleas Title IV-D Contract in the amount of $41,702.06 as requested by Tonya Lock, CSEA Director

COSHOCTON – The Coshocton County Commissioners met Wednesday, Feb. 12 with Jeff Wherley of the Litter and Recycling program to discuss deer disposal within the county. The landfill where the deer were being taken can no longer accept them. Wherley has been looking at other options for deer disposal which include an incinerator at the Fairfield Animal Shelter and Kimble Company Inc. in Dover, Ohio, which is an 80-mile round trip.

Currently, the Coshocton Solid Waste District is taking care of deer disposal, but Wherley is looking to contract it to an individual.

WARSAW – The display case outside the office at River View Junior High School used to be plain and boring, but it now has a colorful outdoor scene, thanks to Sydney Fender.

A black bear used to stand alone in the display case, but when Fender is done with it he will be surrounded by trees, water and grass painted by the high school senior.

“It was an honor to be picked to do this, especially since this is most likely going to be here for a long time,” Fender said. “I was really flattered.”

She was selected for the project by Jerry Olinger, principal at the junior high. The display case is one of several that Olinger has switched around to add more character to the hallways and showcase the work of students.

“We’ve seen her work and knew how gifted she is in this area,” he said. “I just told her I wanted an outdoor scene to go with the bear and each day she adds more and more.”

Olinger asked Fender to paint the mural around Christmas time and she is now almost done with the project.

“It’s been neat watching her work and see this evolve,” Olinger said.

“The kids will stop and watch too and some have even slipped notes in the glass saying how nice it is and that she’s a super artist.”

What’s especially impressive about the mural is that Fender is not a painter.

“I typically draw,” she said.

Rodney Stein, who teaches art at the junior high, likes what Fender has done so far.

“This is the first time she has ever done anything of this style and size, but she dove into it and I’m impressed,” he said.

Stein was Fender’s art teacher in junior high.

“Mr. Stein was always pretty encouraging and so was my former art teacher Mrs. Baker,” Fender said.

She plans to attend Mount Vernon Nazarene University to major in fine arts and would like to become a book illustrator.

“I enjoy the freedom of art,” Fender said. “There is really no wrong way.”

Local baker offers cookie decorating class

DECORATING Katie Hultz shows participants different techniques on how to decorate cookies just in time for Valentine’s Day during her cookie decorating class on Tuesday, Feb. 11. She will be offering two more classes, a princess cupcake class in March and a rose bouquet class in May. BEACON PHOTO BY

BETH SCOTT COSHOCTON – Local Bounty was covered in cookies on Tuesday, Feb. 11 during the Cookie Decorating Class taught by Katie Hultz. Eight participants learned the tricks of the trade as they practiced and perfected their cookie decorating skills. Hultz had already prebaked small heartshaped cookies for the group with her secret sour cream sugar cookie recipe. She had also made royal, buttercream, and glaze icing in whites, reds, and pinks to create the perfect Valentine’s Day cookie.

“I like learning the different techniques and how to use the tips and icing and different textures,” said Sally Miller. “I’m glad they offered this up here (at Local Bounty). It’s a nice place to have it.”

If you missed the cookie decorating class, Hultz will be offering other classes in the future. In March, she will have a princess cupcake decorating class, and if you’ve always wanted to know how to make roses out of icing, you’ll want to attend her rose bouquet decorating class in May.

down the church and go help in the community.”

Last year members of NewPointe helped with a variety of projects including cleaning up the ball fields in Roscoe and working on the Himebaugh Lot. “We did whatever we could to help make the town beautiful,” Bunn said. “We try to mobilize the troops outside the church walls because that’s what a church is about. It’s not about a building. It’s a group of like minded people who follow Christ and are interested in making a difference.”

NewPointe also now has a local office on

Fourth Street.

“That gives us a place to meet and do things during the week like Bible studies and small group meetings,” he said.

To learn more about NewPointe, visit www. newpointe.org or call the local office at 2027058. The church’s long term goal is to have a permanent facility in Coshocton by either building one or renovating an existing building.

“We are excited for the move,” Bunn said.

“It gives us more space and the opportunity to grow and reach more people.”

COSHOCTON – NewPointe Community Church has only been in Coshocton for 13 months, but it’s already outgrown its current location.

“We started with one service at the Career Center, but maxed out of space on our very first Sunday,” said John Bunn, campus pastor.

“We had to regroup and go to two services to accommodate the crowd.”

Now, even with two services, the church’s attendance is too much for the Career Center to handle.

“We looked for months for another venue that could accommodate us on Sunday morning, but there weren’t a lot of good options,” Bunn said. “When the new Coshocton Elementary School was completed we put feelers out to see if it was a possibility and it turned out that it will work for us.”

NewPointe will hold its first service at Coshocton Elementary School at 10 a.m.

Sunday, Feb. 23. They also will now have only one service because the school’s auditorium seats up to 600 people and a normal Sunday attendance for NewPointe is around 300.

The church held its first service in Coshocton on Jan. 6, 2013, and since then has done its best to reach out to the community.

“It’s very important for us to be active in the community,” Bunn said. “Every August New Pointe has a community impact day where we shut

The board of trustees recognizes the importance of having a strong hospital in WILDI Coshocton County and is taking steps to begin revitalizing the hospital to become a strong, vibrant organization.

“As a board, we take very seriously our responsibility to keep a strong, clinically sound hospital in our community for many years to come,” said Max Crown, Coshocton Hospital Board Chairperson. “It is our duty to provide guidance as the organization strives to meet the needs of the community, and we recognize the outstanding level of performance that can certainly be achieved.”

Wildi has over 25 years of experience in healthcare leadership. She has served as a senior consultant with American Healthcare Solutions, LLC, working with Coshocton Hospital for the past 18 months. She has extensive experience in working with hospitals to improve their overall financial performance by developing strategies for long-term organizational success. With her leadership, Coshocton Hospital will develop an effective, aggressive strategic plan focused on enhancing clinical programming; improving operations and financial performance; and growing the organization.

Wildi has begun work with the hospital’s management team to create and implement detailed strategies to strengthen the organization and serve area communities at a much higher level. Plans will be announced as they become available.

Surgery was being performed right on the courthouse lawn. But this surgery was a little different in that it was being done on the courthouse trees. All 86 trees on the courthouse lawn were being inspected and doctored by Blaine Boyd of Boyd Tree Services. His job was to diagnose and treat illness, perform surgery when needed, and fill hollow cavities, thus prolonging the tree’s life. Two trees had already been removed and two more were scheduled to be removed later that week due to decay. Boyd explained that most of the work was just pruning out the dead wood.

Four trees had been planted in the past year at the courthouse by Duren Nursery.

REYNOLDSBURG - The Ohio Department of Agriculture (ODA) recently made a scientific breakthrough that will help pork producers nationwide fight against the Porcine Epidemic Diarrhea virus (PED). Genetic sequencing of a new PED strain conducted by ODA’s Animal Disease Diagnostic Laboratory (ADDL) may lead to a marketable vaccine for swine in the near future.

“The scientists at the Ohio Department of Agriculture have always been of the highest caliber, as this is not the first time they have broken new scientific ground to help secure our most important industry in our state and beyond,” said ODA Director David Daniels. “Their tireless work in this important accomplishment will help ease the stress on pork producers and consumers nationwide.”

PED, first confirmed in the U.S. in 2013, is a virus similar to transmissible gastroenteritis

An idea that started with South Lawn principal Harold Ott was receiving international attention.

The story, which originally appeared in the Jan. 18 issue of the Tribune, had recently been picked up by United Press International. Newspapers, magazines, and news broadcasts across Ohio, the nation, and even Europe were running the story of the bright sticks used to combat the darkness from Daylight Savings Time. Ott said he had been interviewed by a magazine writer from Detroit.

They were receiving clippings from all over the world including the U.S. News and World Report, and the Stars and Stripes Europe Edition. A former South Lawn teacher who now resided in Arizona, had sent a clipping from her local newspaper to the school, saying she recognized her former students immediately.

Pat Frederick, a former music teacher, had the idea to publish a songbook complied of farming songs from around the world. She thought compiling the songs would be the hardest part, but actually, she found that quite easy and enjoyable. What was hard was getting her book published. While many of the publishers liked her songbook and thought it was a good idea, nobody wanted to publish it. She wanted to create a songbook of farming songs so that children in Coshocton County could sing them and better identify with songs they sing in school.

Since she had been turned down by publishers, she had no intention of trying to publish her songbook, but she shared it with as many people as she could.

Songs in forgein language had pronunciation available so that the children could sing the song in its original language.

All information was obtained from microfilm of the Coshocton Tribune at the Coshocton County Library.

(TGE), another disease affecting pigs. The virus is most often fatal to piglets, causing diarrhea, vomiting, dehydration and high mortality. The virus also sickens older hogs, though their survival rate tends to be high. PED cannot spread to humans or other species and poses no risk to food safety. However, PED remains a great concern for pork producers, with piglet mortality totaling in the millions to date.

Led by ADDL virologist Dr. Yan Zhang, scientists at ODA worked to complete genetic sequencing of a new PED virus that differs in a fragment of one gene (1,170 nucleic acids in the S1 domain of the Spike gene) encoding a surface protein. The rest of the genome sequence is identical to the economically devastating PED virus currently circulating in the U.S. Most important, this new virus is associated with reduced mortality in piglets, based on the field observation, which may enhance its use as a potential vaccine.

“Pork production is very important in Ohio, contributing more than $650 million to the state’s economy every year,” said State Veterinarian Dr. Tony Forshey. “Producers both in Ohio and nationwide have been searching for ways to fight back against this virus and we see this discovery as an important step in that fight.”

This discovery will lay the groundwork for producing a vaccine to immunize swine against PED. In a swine herd, the vaccine would be orally given to a sow, which would then pass on the immunization to its piglets through nursing.

This may work to significantly reduce piglet death as a result of PED and create a positive impact to overall swine health.

COSHOCTON - Susan, Lisa and Brody Brightwell are all blessed to share the same birthday.

“It’s wonderful,” Susan said. “They are two of the best presents I’ve ever gotten. I couldn’t have asked for anything better.”

Susan was born Tuesday, Feb. 13, 1951 and she had Lisa on Tuesday, Feb. 13, 1979. Lisa then delivered Brody on Tuesday, Feb. 13, 1996.

“I was early and he was two days late,” Lisa said. “I went into the hospital on the 12th to be induced, but I begged them to wait.”

Brody ended up cooperating with Lisa and was born at 4:58 a.m. on her birthday.

“I swear I was in labor forever, but I got my birthday present,” she said. “My mom gave up her birthday for me and then I gave up mine for him. None of us our greedy, we are just thankful for the other person and try to spend

time together.”

Brody is a senior at the Coshocton County Career Center. His mom and grandmother gathered there with him to take a quick picture during the center’s open house, which happened to fall on their birthdays. The open house was an opportunity for the public to see the various programs offered at the school and learn about careers available to the students once they graduate. Brody is in the metal fab program. He plans to continue his education after graduation and someday work in the railroad industry.

HOLMES COUNTY – At its Jan. 15 board meeting, the Amish Country Lodging Council presented the proceeds from the Christmas Cookie Tour of Inns to charity representatives, Billi Hasemyer of the Love Center Food Pantry, Marion Crane of Life Care Hospice of Holmes and Wayne Counties, and Kurt Kleidon of Kleidon and Associates representing the University of Akron’s School of Nutrition and Dietetics. Checks totaled more than $8,000 to each organization.

“We have reached a milestone,” said Cookie Tour Chairperson Loretta Coblentz. “In six years of hosting the Christmas Cookie Tour of Inns, we have donated more than $75,000 to charity.”

Twelve inns of Amish Country presented the ultimate gingerbread extravaganza as they celebrated six years of Christmas confections during the event on Sunday and Monday, Dec. 8 and 9, 2013. More than 1,350 visitors from across Ohio and adjoining states enjoyed delicious cookies as they toured through gingerbreadthemed inns. On their self-guided tour, guests received a specialty cookie at each inn, many being variations of gingerbread cookies. The delectable delights included a Pumpkin Ginger Chocolate Chip Cookie, a Pennsylvania Dutch Light Ginger Cookie, and a Cut-Out Gingerbread Man Cookie.

Inns on tour presented a journey of irresistible gingerbread wonderlands. The Barn Inn displayed a beautifully-decorated dining table dressed with tiny gingerbread houses atop teacups. The Berlin Grande Hotel showcased an eight-foot gingerbread house in the lobby of the hotel where Mrs. Claus welcomed visitors.

A jolly gingerbread man and gingerbread woman greeted guests at the Grapevine House.

The Berlin Hotel and Suites, Carlisle Inn Sugarcreek, Carlisle Inn Walnut Creek, Comfort Suites Berlin, Ferngully Creek, Guggisberg Swiss Inn, Hannah’s House B&B, Lodging on the Square, and Wallhouse Hotel all welcomed

guests to explore their beautifully decorated interiors.

An added treat on the tour this year were two elaborate gingerbread houses built by master builder, Dr. John Learner D.D.S. of Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio. Dr. Learner’s masterpieces were on display at the Carlisle Inn Walnut Creek and the Wallhouse Hotel.

During the tour, guests had the opportunity to meet Dr. Learner and learn a few of his candification tips and tricks.

For the first year, the Cookie Tour Committee teamed up with the University of Akron’s School of Nutrition and Dietetics. A series of six gingerbread houses were designed and built by teams of students and professors in the University’s Coordinated Program, Food and Environmental Nutrition, and Student Dietetic Association. These houses were on display at inns during the tour and tour guests were invited to vote for their favorite house. In addition to the donation made to the University of Akron’s School of Nutrition and Dietetics to support their scholarship fund, the winning team of students from the Student Dietetic Association, won a $500 cash prize. Following the Cookie Tour, the six houses built by the University of Akron teams were donated for display at Akron Children’s Hospital.

The Amish Country Lodging Council, operating under the auspices of the Holmes County Chamber of Commerce, is dedicated to excellence in hospitality and “embraces the concept of giving back to the community,” said Coblentz. “Christmas is about love and sharing.

Cookies are a delicious vehicle to deliver that love. It is our mission to showcase our lovely inns, while at the same time bless our wonderful charity partners who provide care at a time when it is most desperately needed. On behalf of our hospitality partners, supporting businesses, vendors, and volunteers, we thank you for your contribution to this very worthy cause.”

The 2014 inn-to-inn tour will be Sunday, Dec. 7 and Monday, Dec. 8. Tour information will be available at www.christmascookietour. com, facebook.com/christmascookietour, or by calling the Holmes County Chamber of Commerce and Tourism Bureau at 330-6743975.

SELLERS COSHOCTON – People can change and they can heal and First Step is committed to making that happen.

“We’ve lost funding, but we are still serving people and that’s because of our staff,” said Vicki Laudick, executive director of First Step Family Violence and Intervention Services.

“We have people who see this as their focus and vision and want to make changes in the lives of people in the community.”

First Step’s staff, volunteers and board members were all honored for their hard work and dedication Feb. 10, at the agency’s annual dinner and meeting.

“We wouldn’t be able to do a lot of the stuff we do without our volunteers,” said Megan Philabaum, First Step’s office/fiscal manager.

“We really appreciate all of their help.”

The agency’s mission statement is, “to promote safety to victims of violence through education, counseling, advocacy and shelter when needed to any person suffering the effects of family violence and/or sexual assault. To promote non-violent behavior by educating the perpetrators of violence.”

Laudick explained in her annual report that in 2013, the agency provided 17,277 hours of direct services hours and 229 prevention hours.

Sixty-two women and children were served by the shelter, 238 victims and children seen for individual and group support, including protection orders, 32 people took part in the men’s group and women who resort to violence programs, and the school youth advocate program served 251 students.

Jim McVey and John Turley are cofacilitators of the men’s group and gave a presentation on the program during the meeting.

“What we do when a child is around teaches them how to be a man,” McVey said. “I tell participants that we get to choose what kind of

the healing.”

For information about First Step, visit www. firststepcoshocton.org, friend them on Facebook or call 622-8504.

“Go tell three, four or even five people what you learned here tonight so we can help stop the violence,” Laudick said. “It’d be nice if we could have a final annual meeting because First Step wasn’t needed here in Coshocton anymore.”

She, however, promises to always do her best to provide series to the community as long as they are needed.

“Money will always be a problem, but we will be here,” she said. “We are not going to let that stop us.”

men we are going to have around in the future.”

Turley said they also work on changing the attitudes of people.

“We want to stop the violence and work toward the circle of family,” he said. “It’s a safe home with a lot of caring and love, but they have to build this within themselves first.”

Turley also stressed the importance of not brushing domestic violence under the rug.

“We need to not be afraid to report it and let people know that it’s not right,” he said. “It takes a community to deal with domestic violence. We need everybody’s help.”

Laudick also stressed this message after showing attendees the film, “First Impressions……Exposure to Violence and A Child’s Developing Brain.”

“I love this video,” she said. “It show what a child can go through, but in the end it shows there is hope because we can choose to heal at some point in our lives. As a community, we need to reach out and support each other to help

Local woman collects and gives away prom dresses DRESSES

Jessie Tubbs has built up a collection of dresses to help girls find the perfect press for their prom.

Her collection includes a variety of sizes, styles and colors. The dresses also are given away for free. BEA-

WEST LAFAYETTE - Jessie Tubbs has a closet full of prom dresses that she is more than willing to share at no cost.

“Anyone can come look at them,” she said.

“Income doesn’t matter. Everyone is welcome.”

Tubbs started her free prom dress giveaway seven years ago through the Family and Children First Council.

“People donated them to me and I got a bunch from Goodwill that I picked up for cheap,” she said. “Some West Lafayette Homecoming royalty have also given me their dresses after

their reign was over and I also get bridesmaid dresses.”

The original idea was to help Opportunity School students, but when their prom was canceled she branched out to other schools.

She now has about 42 dresses that girls can pick from.

“I have different styles and colors,” Tubbs said. “There are big princess dresses, sequined form fitted ones and everything in

between.”

There also are a variety of sizes.

“I have sizes 0-28, but most of them are size 8s and 10s,” Tubbs said.

She doesn’t do alterations, but can pass on some names of people who can help make the dress fit you perfectly or make an older one look like new.

“Big puffy sleeves on ones from the 1980s can be taken off and the wedding dresses I get can be dyed to make them different,” Tubbs

said.

Accessories also can change a dress.

“You can add gloves, change a belt or spend a little extra on jewelry since the dress is free,” Tubbs said.

Several of her dresses are currently on loan for people to use at the Friday, March 28, Celebrity Waiter Dinner at the Elks to benefit Nationwide Children’s Hospital, but after that Tubbs plans to host a prom dress giveaway.

Right now the event is scheduled for 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday and Sunday, March 29-30, at Fischer Insurance Agency, where Tubbs works.

“You can keep the dress or just borrow it,” she said. “If you bring it back I’ll just store it and pass it out again next year. The more use they get the better. I just ask that you don’t try to sell it back to me.”

If you can’t make the event in March, feel free to call Tubbs at 610-7433 and schedule a time to come look at her dresses. People also are welcome to call her to arrange a time to drop off unwanted formal dresses or bring them to the Fischer Insurance Agency.

Tubbs keeps collecting and passing out dresses for one simple reason.

“It’s fun!” she said.

COSHOCTON - The Pomerene Center for the Arts is opening a show of the work of two cartoon artists, Friday evening, Feb. 21, from 5:30 to 7 p.m.

The first show is, “Banned to Obscurity,” by 2006 Coshocton High School graduate Andy Scott.

Scott left his hometown to study graphic design and advertising at the Art Institute of Pittsburgh. It was there in Pittsburgh where a heavy comics influence, as well as other independent media, made an emergence in Scott’s work. From this newfound knowledge of independent media he began to craft this new language with a pre-existing language based in both fine art and advertising.

Scott is the founder of Little Tired Press, a small independent publisher focused on creative

TO

endeavors in the Rustbelt region of the United States. Scott is also the founder and editor of Andromeda, Pittsburgh’s only regularly published comics anthology that started as a monthly publication and more recently has transferred into a quarterly format. In addition to managing operations at Little Tired Press and Andromeda, Scott creates the design and illustration for promotional and branding materials. As the 2011-12 Marilyn G. Rabb Foundation Teaching Artist, Scott developed curriculum and taught for an after school arts program.

Scott has always had an interest in making things from an early age and there is really nothing else that he could see himself doing for a living. His strongest passions lie in painting, cartooning and printmaking, but he also finds himself indulging in alternative activities such as organizing events, public art-making, record collecting and music.

The second show is called, “Illustrated

Personal Stories,” by Julian Dassai.

Dassai is a cartoonist, illustrator and musician who was raised in Athens, Greece. He currently writes and draws The Columbusonian, an interview comic featured in 614 Magazine, a local Columbus, Ohio publication. Since 2008, Dassai has taught workshops in comic book writing and drawing for the Wexner Center for the Arts, The Billy Ireland Cartoon Research Library, Otterbein University, and Columbus Public Schools. He has worked in magazine illustration, album design, and as guitarist for the band Nick Tolford & Company, has shared stages with the Flaming Lips, Mavis Staples, and Booker T., amongst others. Dassai currently lives in Columbus.

The work that will be shown is five original ink pages of the Columbusonian and matching full-color print pages.

Dassai will be staying throught the weekend to lead a cartooning workshop called Little Social Histories.

OHS representative to discuss precursor to French and Indian War COSHOCTON - Have you heard the saying, “Archaeologists dig history”? William Pickard, Assistant Curator at the Ohio Historical Society, is an archaeologist who does just that. For the past ten years, Pickard and other OHS archaeologists have been conducting a comprehensive research program at Pickawillany, a large 18th century Miami town near the junction of Loramie Creek and the Great Miami River in Miami County.

The Johnson-Humrickhouse Museum has invited Pickard to present their findings from this blood-soaked Indian trading town. Entitled, ‘Making Sense of the First Big Gun Fight in Ohio: Pickawillany 1782’ will be given at the museum on March 1, at 3 p.m. The massacre there was a precursor to the French and Indian War that formally began a year later.

The conflict between the English and French at Pickawillany began in 1748. The Miami allowed the English to open a very successful

trading enterprise there in open defiance to the French who claimed all of the Ohio country as their domain. Despite repeated attempts to coerce the Miami to return to the French alliance, the Miami remained firmly attached to the English. To settle the question of the Miami’s loyalties once and for all, the French attacked and destroyed Pickawillany in June of 1752. They killed the Miami Chief Memeskia or “Old Briton” as the English knew him, and killed or captured most of the English traders on site. From that point forward, Pickawillany ceased to exist and North America soon slid into a conflict known as the French and Indian War. Using technologies old and new, OHS work there has resulted in some impressive finds.

Doing archaeology at Pickawillany has not only been a matter of great discoveries but also an ongoing process that needs to be conducted properly. This process is also important because

CONTRIBUTED TO THE BEACON

this place and time period is the setting where written history in Ohio is said to have begun.

Bill Pickard has been involved in archaeology for nearly 30 years and has done extensive fieldwork on a wide variety of prehistoric and historic archaeological sites in the U.S. His presentation, ‘Making Sense of the First Big Gun Fight in Ohio: Pickawillany 1782’, is free with museum admission: adults $4, students $3. The museum is open 1 to 4:30 p.m.

Tuesday through Sunday. For more information, contact the Johnson-Humrickhouse Museum at 622-8710 or email jhmuseum@jhmuseum.org.

The Johnson-Humrickhouse Museum is located at 300 N. Whitewoman Street in Roscoe Village, Coshocton. The Ohio Arts Council helped fund this program with state tax dollars to encourage economic growth, educational excellence and cultural enrichment for all Ohioans.

Art project to spruce up downtown

WICKERHAM

CONTRIBUTED TO THE BEACON

COSHOCTON - The Pomerene Center for the Arts has recruited a team of seven community members from throughout Coshocton County to work with cartoon/illustration artist Julian Dassai on the design of a large public art piece titled “Little Social Histories.”

With Dassai as mentor, the seven member art making team will create graphics telling little social histories of downtown Coshocton in the context of the old and now vacant Selby Building (400 block Main Street - formerly JJ Newberry’s/SOTA). The finished artwork will be combined with historic text, old photographs and images, and will be enlarged to fill the building’s storefront windows.

The 31 empty windows are currently a major detractor on Main Street. So in addition to having an opportunity to learn from Dassai, the team will be doing the community a service.

The public is welcome to share its own stories about the Newberry Store on Main, and meet Dassai and the design team from 5:30 to 7 p.m. on Friday, Feb. 21t, at the Pomerene Center for the Arts.

COSHOCTON – Have you ever wondered where your food comes from? On Saturday, Feb. 22, you’ll get the chance to meet local farmers who grow and produce the food that is served on your breakfast table each morning during the Farmer’s Share Breakfast from 8 to 10:30 a.m. at River View High School.

“People want to know where their food is coming from and where it’s grown,” said Kari Burkey, Organization Director of the Ohio Farm Bureau Federation. “When we can allow people to meet these famers and see where their food is being grown, it’s a great opportunity.”

The breakfast is in its third year and will be serving up a delicious meal of pancakes, eggs, sausage, milk, juice, and coffee for a cost of only $1. The cost of the breakfast is reflecting the amount of profit a farmer receives after growing and selling all of the ingredients that are being used in the breakfast.

During the breakfast, there will be a scavenger hunt and door prizes. There will also be a safety meeting with the OSU Extension entitled, “I’m not as young as I used to be”.

“A lot of farmers are aging and have to figure out how to modify equipment to keep farming,” said Burkey.

They will also be collecting donations for local food pantries.

Sponsors for the event are Coshocton County Farm Bureau, OSU Extension, Farm Credit MidAmerica, Soil and Water Conservation District, Scott Boyer – Nationwide Insurance, Endsley Agency, Coshocton County Grain Company, AG Land Co-Op, Ohio CAT Ag Equipment, Kuester Implement, and Pearl Valley Cheese.

“We have the opportunity to have interaction between farmers and consumers,” said Burkey.

“Our mission is to feature the farmers in local agriculture.”

NEWARK — The Ohio State University at Newark announced that Dr. Carol Strip-Whitney, Ph.D. and Julieann Ash, MS, BCET, will give a talk entitled “Motivating to Enhance Executive Function in Gifted Children” at 1 p.m. on Saturday, March 1 in the Performance Platform at Ohio State Newark. The event, which will include coffee and dessert, is free and open to the public.

Therapists and teachers at Midwest Educational Therapists & Associates and Gifted Services of Ohio, Strip-Whitney and Ash will speak about the struggle some children face because of issues related to executive function. Executive function is the brain’s “air traffic control” system, the part that helps people set goals, stay focused, and switch between tasks.

These smart kids therefore can be prone to impulsiveness, disorganization, over excitability, anxiety and perfectionism. They may also have poor writing skills or be reluctant to write.

This presentation offers specific, practical motivational strategies to address the most common executive function difficulties, based on a concept called Educational Therapy. Educational Therapy (ET) is not tutoring but a holistic, brain-based approach that encompasses the whole child, addressing emotional, social, and educational concerns. These strategies provide gifted children, and any child struggling with executive function issues, a way to express what they know and find success.

Teachers, family members, researchers, and anyone who works with or knows a gifted child or any child struggling with executive function deficits can benefit from this informative presentation.

The Performance Platform is located in the John L. and Christine Warner Library and Student Center, Room #126. To RSVP or for more information about this talk, please contact Virginia Cope, Ph.D. at 740.366.9293 or cope.38@osu.edu.

Healing Elements offers Yoga classes and much more WEST LAFAYETTE - Lynn Russell has seen the impact Yoga can have on the body and she wants to share her knowledge of it with others.

Yoga helped Russell deal with Fibromyalgia and she found the classes so helpful that she studied to become a certified yoga instructor.

“Anybody and everybody can do Yoga,” she said. “You can do it in a bed, a chair or even a wheelchair. There is a misconception that you can’t do it if you aren’t flexible or have health issues.”

Russell had one student, who due to an injury, couldn’t turn her head very well, but after doing Yoga was able to overcome the physical obstacle. It also has helped prevent injuries when people fall and ease the pain of chronic health conditions.

“Yoga helps build strength, flexibility and is a mood enhancer,” she said. “It also helps reduce stress and has so many more benefits.”

Russell offers beginner and intermediate classes in the banquet hall at River Greens Golf Course. She is part owner in the course, but also operates Healing Elements, where she offers Yoga classes and her skills as a Polarity Therapist, Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapist and Reflexologist.

“Polarity Therapy is a holistic approach to bringing flow and balance to the energy in the body,” Russell said.

During a session the client lies fully clothed on a message table. The practitioner may use gentle touch, rocking and pressure points to alleviate the client’s issues. Dietary changes and gentle exercise also are recommended.

Lynn Russell is a certified Yoga instructor and is offering classes to the public. To find out more information, contact Russell at 502-4513 or healingelements@sbcglobal.net.

BEACON PHOTO BY

JOSIE SELLERS She was introduced to polarity therapy during her Yoga training.

“I give clients Yoga exercises to do because the two interact and build on each other,” Russell said.

Biodynamic Craniosacral Therapy is a lot like Polarity Therapy, but it deals with the rhythm of the spinal fluid. The practitioner incorporates gentle touch to connect with the energy of the other person.

Benefits Benefits of Yoga Stress Release - lowers cortisol Increase Flexibility Increase muscle strength Improve balance Increase range of motion Improve posture Strengthen bones Improve sleep Improve heart rate and circulation Lower blood pressure Weight loss Mood enhancer, lessen depression Increase focus and concentration Lower blood sugar Improve immune system Ease constipation Calm the nervous system Quiet the mind Ease body aches and pains Increase lung function Relief muscle tension Increase self-esteem Improves lump drainage Encourage positive change May help decrease medication use

“The motion can have different qualities,” Russell said. “It can be hesitant, easy, stagnate or pull you in different directions. It leads us to the area that needs worked on and helps us develop a treatment plan.”

Clients who receive Elemental Refloxology Therapy have pressure points on their feet and hands worked with.

“It’s about stimulating the nerves that are related to the organs and body systems,” Russell said.

She also said it is helpful to keep an open mind when trying these different forms of therapy or even Yoga.

“It’s all amazing stuff,” Russell said.

“Holistic medicine gets to the root of issues through diet, exercise and body work instead of medicine. It also makes you more aware of your body.”

To learn more about the services Russell offers, call 502-4513, or e-mail healingelements@sbcglobal.net.

“It’s all about getting the mind, body and spirit in balance,” she said.

Russell encourages people to check out a Yoga class or schedule an appointment with her to discuss what might be the best approach to deal with their particular health needs.

“We all have to start somewhere so don’t be afraid to try Yoga,” she said. “I can make modifications to make sure you benefit from it and help you get where you need to go.”
