SUGARCREEK – Sugar Valley Meats LLC of Sugarcreek, Ohio has issued a voluntary recall due to possible listeria monocytogenes contamination involving approximately 200 lbs of ready-to-eat product. The products are wieners, beef wieners, and smoked sausages, small links only. Each product’s package label bears the establishment number Est. 165 inside the Ohio Department of Agriculture inspection legend. The products involved in this recall were offered for sale through Sugar Valley’s retail store from Feb. 23 – March 15. The problem was discovered as a result of routine sampling by the Ohio Department of Agriculture. The department has not received any consumer complaints or reports of illness at this time. Consumption of food contaminated with listeria monocytogenes can cause listerosis, an uncommon but potentially fatal disease in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems. Although healthy people rarely contract listerosis, if anyone becomes ill, seek attention from a physician. Sugar Valley Meats value their customers and strive to produce a safe and wholesome product. They apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused. Customers are encouraged to return any product in question to Sugar Valley Meats. Feel free to call Reuben Erb or Lavern Yoder at (330) 852-4423 with any questions or concerns.

a new organization for economic development arrives in Coshocton
of Coshocton.” The Coshocton Business Development Foundation has applied to the IRS for 501c3 status. Once CBDF receives its tax exempt status, the stage will be set for a capital fundraising campaign. Involved in this fundraising campaign will be public meetings where individuals and organizations can ask questions and get a better understanding of how this might impact Coshocton County. The Coshocton Business Development Foundation will have a Board of Trustees made up of Jason Bradford, Jason Given and Kirby Hasseman. Additionally, the executive committee is currently made up of Jim Brown, Tom Edwards, Rhoda Crown, Joe Miller and two other local leaders that are finalizing their decisions. CBDF will soon start seeking out interested investors. These local entrepreneurs will be an integral part of the organization’s success. Anyone interested in investing in businesses to relocate to Coshocton County should contact Kirby Hasseman at the CBDF at (740) 622-7429. For more information, visit the Coshocton Business Development Foundation at www.cbdf. webs.com.

seek out appropriate businesses that are for sale and appropriate to relocate to Coshocton County, and to continue to seek out funds to grow the CBDF. The Coshocton County Port Authority and Coshocton County Chamber of Commerce are wonderful and effective organizations. Their basic premise is to seek out companies looking to relocate and to market our community to them. In this effort, we as a community compete with every other municipality in the country, and frankly the world. We have had some success and these efforts should be continued, but it is reactive in its design. The CBDF will assist in the effort of promoting Coshocton County. But the key difference is that the CBDF will take a pro-active approach to investing in Coshocton County. CBDF will actively seek out companies that can be purchased and relocated to Coshocton under Coshocton County ownership. Coshocton County is a proud community at a crossroads in terms of economy. Local entrepreneurs want to invest in the future of Coshocton. However, they lack the time to continually be looking for new opportunities. CBDF will search out those business opportunities for them and provide an avenue that will make the investment in those business opportunities more realistic. “In essence, The Coshocton Business Development Foundation is about taking charge of our own future,” said board member Jason Given. “The CBDF provides investors in our community a way to invest in their own future…and the future

A new organization for economic development called the Coshocton Business Development Foundation (CBDF) has been created in Coshocton County. The organization, which will focus on a pro-active approach to local business development, is the brain child of local businessman Jason Bradford. “I feel we need a venue to not only seek out businesses,” said Bradford. “But we also need to provide a vehicle for local entrepreneurs to invest in Coshocton County.” The CBDF does just that! The CBDF is an organization that is being created in order to help with the process of economic development in Coshocton County. CBDF will do this by creating an avenue for investors to actually invest in potential businesses that could be relocated to Coshocton County. This organization would work in conjunction and collaboration with the other economic development drivers in place, but would create a new wrinkle to this system. “While other organizations are aggressively seeking out business to re-locate to Coshocton County,” said board member Kirby Hasseman, “the CBDF will actually seek out businesses that are for sale, and try to pair these businesses with investors interested in purchasing them…with the intent of relocating business to Coshocton County.” CBDF is a not-for-profit corporation with the sole intent of investing in Coshocton County’s future. CBDF will be guided by an “Executive Director” that will answer to a Board of Trustees. The executive director’s responsibilities will be to

fools on the roof to have another great year by beth sCOtt
Last year on April 1, local celebrities gathered on the roof of Hopewell Industries to raise money for cancer. Collectively, they had a goal of reaching $10,000 and they exceeded that goal, raising $10,242 total. This year will be the second annual Fools on the Roof event. They have the same goal of $10,000 this year and hope to once again exceed. Most of the ‘fools’ are involved in their own Relay for Life Team. All the money raised by those individuals will go directly to their team. Some have no affiliation with a Relay Team, and their money will be used to defray costs for Relay events. Last year, over 80% of the money went directly to teams and helped Coshocton reach its mark. Although the event is called, ‘Fools on the Roof’, participants are not required to be on the roof. Those who may be afraid of heights can sit on benches to raise their money. For those wishing to brave the heights, A1 tree services will be there to hoist ‘fools’ to the roof. Each participant is required to be present for one hour and make phone calls to friends and family asking for money. A phone book will be available for those who need it and there will also be clip boards with donation paperwork to fill out. Refreshments will be provided.
When callers contact their family and friends, they can either make a pledge or donate that day using their debt or credit card. People who decide to donate during the event can also drop off their donations at Hopewell Industries from 10 a.m. – 2 p.m. that day. Participants can also work on their goals prior to the event and are encouraged to do so. Last year, one ‘fool’ raised all of his money before April 1 and came at his allotted time to sit and talk with other participants. The original idea of this event came from a Relay For Life leader in Muskingum County. In eight years, they have raised over $100,000 for the American Cancer Society. The goal for the event is to have 20 ‘fools’ to raise $500 each, thus making a grand total of $10,000. There will hopefully be five ‘fools’ on the roof at a time. A few of the ‘fools’ who have already signed up to participate include Bob Miller, CEO of the Coshocton County Hospital; Sue Renner from Kids America, and Jessi Marcincavage from WTNS Radio. To become a ‘fool’ on the roof this April Fool’s Day, contact Bob Nicholson, coordinator for the event, at 6223563 by Monday, March 28. In case of rain, the ‘fools’ will be moved into the cafeteria.

And the schools are really essential to make this a success. We’re bowling with our school kids in the next two events. But it is really about the community coming together and just supporting the services that we offer. And the folks here at the Bowling Center are wonderful. Jeff is always so good to work with and help us plan this event. We depend on it and we appreciate it so much.” Mayse concluded, “We are a United Way agency and we do depend of course on United Way support and we really thank folks who support the United Way and support us in trying to do this.” Kathy Lindell, who bowled for one of the Kraft Foods teams, said she wanted to participate because, “I want to help the kids and it’s fun. We are together a lot and we’re just like family. That makes it fun.”

With kids on their mind, groups, organizations and businesses gathered at the Coshocton Bowling Center on Friday and Saturday to “Bowl for Kids”, the annual major fund-raiser held to raise money for The Mentoring Center of Coshocton County, formerly Big Brothers / Big Sisters. Executive Director Sheila Mayse, said, “This year is going really quite well. We’re very excited; folks are having a good time. Teams of five come together and come down here and bowl for us and they bring donations in support of their team and in support of the mentoring programs that we’re offering. This year our theme is “wild about bowling for kids”, so we’re just coming down here, bowling, having pizza, just enjoying one another and celebrating service to kids in the community.” “This is our largest fund-raiser. We depend on this fund-raiser in order to keep our doors open. We need to raise at least 50% of our budget during this fund-raiser. We provide mentoring services in the form of the Big’s and Little’s program, a Side by Side parent mentoring program, a student mentoring program in schools as well as a peer mentoring program for high school students. In order to provide those services we absolutely have to conduct this fund-raiser and we need it to be a success in order to continue those services.” “Kraft Foods is our presenting sponsor and we have two corporate sponsors in AEP Conesville and the Coshocton Bowling Lanes. But in terms of the teams, folks have come from a variety of businesses; including Clow, Smurfit Stone, Kraft has been just an essential part of this fund-raiser this year in particular.

900 producers. We sell grain into the southeastern and eastern U.S. via the railroad. When you think about it, if this elevator was not here, the closest market that someone could deliver their grain would be Columbus. So you’re talking about freight rates to Columbus. And obviously if we’re not a market factor, then they may not have to pay as much for grain. So this keeps more money in the producers’ pockets in Coshocton County and the surrounding counties.” With a world population expected to reach over 9 billion by 2050, expansion only makes sense. Talking about industry growth, Crown stated, “Each year we see growth in the yields with the genetics of the seeds that we’re planting .In the environment right now, we’re seeing the high prices of both corn and soybeans that affect all of us in the ag industry. As far as margins go, we’re very pleased with what we’ve achieved for the past three years and what it means for the bottom line for the company.” “That’s why we’re able to add the bins and increase our capacity here. In the fall producers need a place to come to because if we’re able to service them then they don’t have to put the capital on their farm.” Technology plays a big role at Coshocton Grain, as Crown stated, “These bins will run by a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller), and we’ll be able to employ one person to run the new equipment. “We’re serviced on both the Coshocton and Hebron property by the Ohio Central Railroad, which is the short line that connects us to Class I lines t Columbus and at Mingo Junction. Those Class I’s are the Norfolk Southern and the CSX systems. A railroad is the lifeblood of an elevator because you can move the bushels in the least cost manner. One carload equals three and a half semis. The cost of being able to ship on the railroad versus shipping via truck with the cost of diesel is much cheaper.” Crown added that the expansion was achieved without grants or stimulus funds and employed 35 local workers during the construction phase. Coshocton Grain has 900 customers from 22 counties, pays over $60,000 in real estate taxes and reported $70 million in gross sales last fiscal year. Further, they have 13 employees and 26 shareholders representing 14 families.

Dick Boyd, the 1951 Capital University basketball captain, originally from Coshocton, was the thirdhighest scorer for the team that season with 163 points in just 17 games for an average of nearly 10 per game. Most of his tallies came in the form of one-hand push shots or drive-ins. “The Bird”, as he was called, had his highest point of the season in a game against Heidelberg when, with the score tied at 53, Boyd was fouled in the act of shooting just as the final gun sounded. After a few minutes deciding whether or not the foul happened before or after the final gun, Boyd stepped to the free throw line, dropping both balls cleanly into the net, giving Capital a two-point victory. Boyd’s highest scoring achievement came when, after sitting out the first quarter of a game due to a lip injury, he bounded onto the court and knocked in 18 points in the remaining three quarters, as Capital came behind to win. Boyd planned to return to Coshocton after graduation to coach.

In Cub Scouts that year, the theme or “Big Idea” for March was railroads. So that past Saturday morning, 18 Cub Scouts and two den chiefs from Cub Pack 456 made a trip to Newark on the Pennsylvania railroad. The pack was sponsored by the Roscoe United Methodist Church. When the boys arrived back in Coshocton, they were met by 13 Boy Scouts from the same troop and were conducted through a diesel locomotive.

Coshocton High School honored their two dedicated basketball managers and wanted fans to know just how much they did for the team. The two honorees were Dave Kittell and Frank Ackerman. One memory that Coach Bill Bowman had about the two was when they led a cheer in the middle of the court before a big game. Ackerman had been varsity manager for three years and head manager the past two years. He said he realized he did not have the ability to play basketball when he was in eighth grade, but still wanted to be a part of the game somehow. He said being a manager was very rewarding. His duties included handling films, helping with the whirlpool, gathering equipment for each game, and keeping the locker rooms clean. Kittell said by being a manager, he had learned the value of team work. His duties were much the same as Ackerman’s. Both said they enjoyed managing CHS basketball.

his position as bishop and went to pastor at Benin City, which is also known as the City of Blood because of its animal and human sacrifices. In 1991, Peter made his first visit to the United States and attended a pastors’ conference in Virginia. This is when God showed him a vision to go back to Benin City and found Beulah Land, a ministry to help underprivileged children who may otherwise become victims of human trafficking. In his vision, Peter saw a place where these children would live safely off of the streets. They now have a school in which 28 children attend and a medical clinic. Pastor Peter Adigwe will be at the North Gate Open Bible Church in Dresden on Saturday, March 26 at 6 p.m. to share his story. Refreshments will be served at 5 p.m. The church is located at 10516 Frazeysburg Road in Dresden.

“I have known hunger. I have known deprivation. I have known low self esteem. I have been abused and humiliated. It is like merely existing, not living. It is traumatic.” – Pastor Peter Adigwe. Pastor Peter Adigwe grew up in Nigeria, Africa as an orphan. As a child of six years old, he was disowned by his parents for not practicing their voodoo religion. In order to survive, Pastor Adigwe worked his way through school selling items such as kerosene, pineapple and bananas on the streets. Pastor Adigwe has traveled to the United States more than a dozen times to spread the Word of the Gospel. He will be at the North Gate Open Bible Church in Dresden, formerly Jubilee Revival Center, on Saturday, March 26 at 6 p.m. to share his traumatic story of growing up in Africa. After being abandoned by his family, Pastor Adigwe served 17 families in ten years as a house slave. During that time, Peter lived in fear and was constantly abused and beaten. He remembers a story of making soup for a family one day and having a burning stick from the fire being thrown into his face because the family was dissatisfied with the meal. He was eight years old. He also recalls being attacked by a pack of dogs when he was six years old. They bit his face in the same place that the family attacked him with the burning stick two years later. Perhaps the worst attack he suffered was when he was 17 years old. His village was attacked by radical members of a religious sect. They attacked him with a machete and clubs, and as he was laying face-down in a small pond, they marked an ‘X’ on his back and left him for dead. After the attack, Peter returned to his father’s house hoping for acceptance. Although his father was happy he was alive, he still rejected his son. At this point, Peter was ready to end his life. That’s when he received a call from God. When Peter was very young, he used to sneak out of his house and go listen to the missionaries preach about God sending His Son, and he listened with enthusiasm to all the fascinating Bible stories. This was the only time Peter had heard about God, so when God called him that night, Peter didn’t realize God was speaking to him. God spoke to him three times that night and Peter accepted Jesus Christ immediately and began doing His will. He joined the Baptist Church and the church choir and went into business, becoming a very successful Michelin tire representative. When God spoke to Peter and told him to become a pastor, Peter dutifully followed, leaving all of his success behind him. He eventually became the bishop of all the southern states of Nigeria. But God had other plans for him. Peter gave up

“I’ve been looking at this (Oscar Meyer weiner mobile) in the window for the last two weeks and I said,’That’s going to be mine’”, stated Jerry McKenna of Unusual Junction fame. McKenna plans on rotating the novelty between the retail locations owned by the family; Unusual Junction, Medberry and Captain Nye’s. McKenna added laughingly, “It’s going to have wheels on it. I’m not sure I can get in it or not, but it’s going to be travelling back and forth. It’s all about supporting The Chamber; they do so much for the community. This is what it’s all about.” As winning bidders converged on The Progress Center on the corner of Fourth and Main Streets in downtown Coshocton Saturday to collect their items, Carol Remington, Executive Director of the Coshocton County Chamber of Commerce, said, “I think we’ve had the best year that we’ve had in several years.

television but it was just one of those things that happened. It wasn’t really anyone’s fault but you adjust and we think it’s going just as well, if not maybe just a little bit better. Maybe people are feeling better about things and we appreciate so much the fact that people really want to support the Chamber of Commerce. We should do really well this year.” “We have a wonderfully supportive business community that gives us so much. We had a unique thing in the wiener mobile. We knew that was going to be a highly contested item. That came from Kraft Foods, they actually called and asked if they could give us a wiener mobile and we said “certainly”, we’re happy to have it.” Remington concluded, “It (the auction) is a long process and it takes a lot of volunteers but not quite so many actually doing it this way. This is a little more manageable for us. People can come in for weeks in advance and look at the items and people have been doing that. We want people to know what we’re doing here at The Progress Center. We want to thank every single person that donated, because we can’t do this without the businesses that donate to us.”

Kevin Oliver has been performing Johnny Cash music locally since 2008 just waiting for his big break. That finally came in the form of the John Casablancas Model and Talent Management in Columbus. Kevin stumbled across the modeling agency’s Web site and decided to give it a try. After filling out the required form, it wasn’t too long before the agency contacted him asking for an audition. When Kevin auditioned, he was immediately accepted into the program. They couldn’t say enough about him. “He’s got a real passion for the business,” said Maria Seibert of John Casablancas Model and Talent Management, “and you can tell that when he plays his music.” Portraying Johnny Cash comes natural to Kevin. Once he’s in the black outfit and in front of an audience, Kevin transforms into the singer himself. Kevin said he enjoys, “The looks on people’s faces. The way they light up when I sing, and the magic of his songs. I feel the same magic I think he felt when he

relay teams are “rockin”
Evangelist Ron Davis of Gospel Hill responded to the question about why be involved with Relay, “We believe that it’s a great cause. We believe God wants us to conquer cancer and we know research, and doctors and surgeons and all the things at the American Cancer Society does helps a lot so we sort of put the spiritual part along with what man’s doing and say, “hey, we’re going to conquer this thing,” so this is our fund-raiser today, we’re going to have a good time and believe that God is going to bless us and we’re going to be able to bless other people.” Back in Coshocton, the folks at Emmanuel Lutheran Church held a garage sale on Saturday morning to raise funds for Relay. Team captain Missy Wilson said, “We asked people from the church to make donations from the congregation and they did and they told their friends. We thought we weren’t going to have anything but we ended up having tons of stuff so we did really well. It was exciting and a good time.” Wilson said that, “We’ve had a lot of people here at the church that have been affected with family members having cancer, members of the church themselves having cancer, and losing people to cancer. I’ve lost several members of my family to cancer and it’s just an event that we feel we should support and help get some money to help fight cancer.”

Nancy Modesitt, Gospel Hill team captain, said, “We started the first year of the Relay with our teen group as an outreach. And it has just grown from there. We have so many people in our congregation that have had, or have, cancer or been affected. A few years ago, Rita Reeb started it and we’ve just continued it with the adults instead of just the teens. Our teens are still involved.” At Gospel Hill, the Relay is also about fun.

Wilson also talked about a new event that will be held prior to Relay this year, “Bark for Life”, which will be held April 23 at Lake Park. The event is a one or two mile walk. You get to choose, or you can choose not to walk. If people don’t have dogs, they can come anyway because we’ll have dogs there and maybe we can get a couple dogs adopted. Four Paws will be there, we have some other rescues coming. Registration before March 23 is $10. They get a tee shirt for themselves, bandana for the dog and a bio-degradable bag to clean up any messes your dog makes!” Registration after March 23 is $15. I can’t guarantee a tee shirt but hopefully we’ll have one.” Watch The Beacon for more

Counter-cyclical Base Program (DCP) is in full swing at the Farm Service Agency office. The DCP program allows operators and owners of farms with established crop acreage base to receive benefits. Each farm as recorded in Farm Service Agency (FSA) records has a unique base history. Benefits through the DCP program are issued based upon this planting history. To be eligible for these benefits, applicants must agree to farm their acreage according to sodbuster and swamp buster rules. These rules are in place to assure producers are using environmentally sound practices. A common example in Coshocton County can be seen on many hillsides in the rural areas. Contour strips look pretty on a country drive, but serve a conservation purpose of erosion reduction. If ground is determined to be Highly Erodible, which means it has an erodibility index greater than 8, some type of conservation practice is needed to meet sodbuster rules. Contour strip establishment meets this goal. DCPparticipantsarealsorequired to follow wetland regulations, which are termed the swampbuster rules. This rule prevents framers from draining wetlands to use for agricultural purposes. The DCP program is available only to applicants with an Adjust Gross Income averaging less than $500,000 annually for non-farm income and less than $750,000 of farm income. This provision is
