and event co-chair with the Dickens Victorian Village in Cambridge, explained the numerous community and regional partnerships that have been formed to put together the highly successful holiday event throughout Cambridge. During the meeting, OAC Board President, Krysten Walton, executive director at Ross Co. CVB explained the benefits of being a member of OAC. Membership to OAC is open to any person, organization, event or attraction, especially those located within Ohio’s 32 Appalachian Counties. Membership benefits include networking, promotional partnerships opportunities, quarterly meetings, educational workshops, lobbying opportunities, participation in the Spotlight on Appalachia Travel Show, inclusion in a regional visitors guide and representation to the Appalachian Regional Commissions’ Tourism Council. “OAC recently released a map in conjunction with the Appalachian Regional Commission highlighting Civil War related sites and interests in the Appalachian Region,” said Walton. “This will be used as an insert in the American Heritage magazine’s next issue. The piece actually highlights items that would also appeal to the non-Civil War buff. More information can be found on www.VisitAppalachia.com.” Membership dues for Ohio’s Appalachian Country are $50 annually. Contact Kyrsten Walton for membership information at 800-413-4118 or Belinda Williamson at Coshocton CVB at 622-4877.

We might not be able to hear your laugh, But we know you are still laughing. We might not be able to see you smile, But we know you’re watching over us and still smiling. We might not ever fully get over you being gone, But we know we were blessed for the time we did have with you. Your laughter echoes in our memories, today we are honoring those memories, celebrating your gracious spirit and remembering a wonderful life.

by Bob nicholson Adult Services Director Coshocton County Board of DD
Dear Editor, On behalf of the staff and individuals of the Adult Service Program here at Hopewell Industries, I want to thank the Coshocton County Chamber of Commerce for allowing the services and programs available to students and adults with disabilities be highlighted at the Business After Hours event held in our newly-refurbished building on March 24. Approximately 60 were in attendance and the atmosphere was electric. Frequent tours were conducted by individuals who receive services. Several in attendance were surprised by all
the services available to individuals with developmental disabilities in Coshocton County. The attendees also discovered how important the program is to the business community. The support from our community of the services and the individuals we serve is vital. We appreciate our partnership with business community as well as the constituents of Coshocton County. Please stop by anytime. We love to have guests! Warmest Regards, Bob Nicholson Adult Services Director Coshocton County Board of DD

home is a wonderful thing.” Jane Mautz of Habitat said, “We decided to do this – maybe it was a little close to our Home Show – but the reason we decided to do it is that we want to help people in our community best we can. And we thought a shopping spree might be a way to do that so we sold tickets here at Baker’s starting right after our home show. We were able to sell about 300 tickets – that brought in about $1100. Again, this is a fund-raiser for us. Chip and Brandi Kreider had the winning ticket – so his grandmother stood in for them because he had to work. It’s been fun and she’s enjoyed it.” Tickets were sold for $5.00 each.

Every American kid dreams of being a national movie star, but very few actually achieve that dream. However, local Coshocton student, Jaelen Brightwell, is on the right track to achieving his dream and becoming the next Disney or Nickelodeon star. Jaelen recently participated in a local talent show on April 1 at Central Elementary. National Talent Scout, Kim Myers judged the show and Jaelen’s talent blew her away. As a finalist, Jaelen will begin training with Kim and start working with other talented peers. The training will all lead up to the 8th annual ARTS Talent Showcase in Orlando, FL in December where Jaelen will be able to showcase his talents in front of different agencies. “He’s excited. It’s something he always wanted to do,” said Lisa Brightwell, Jaelen’s mom. “He was really nervous the first time and he didn’t get to show everything that he had, so I’m hoping if he gets the experience to go do all of this, he’s going to get to show what he can do. So, we’re excited.” If Jaelen is accepted in Florida, he will be doing commercials, clothing advertisements, and modeling. All modeling and advertising are G-rated. His college will also be completely paid for if he is accepted. However, Jaelen will need to keep up his good grades and good attendance at school because, after he is accepted, Jaelen

Yes, you can. Most cemeteries in our area allow two sets of cremated remains to be buried in the same grave. Some cemeteries require a cremation urn vault be used. They can both be buried at the same time or when each person passes away. The best thing to do would be to set these arrangements up ahead of time so your family doesn’t have any doubt of your wishes when the time would come. More and more families are finding out how easy it is to set up their own pre arrangements with Matt Miller or Jim Lapp. Please contact them at Miller Funeral Home, 622-8000 to make an appointment.

could be called to a photo or video shoot at a moment’s notice. To say that Jaelen is excited to get started would be an understatement. “I might get an agent and might get to do something that I really want to and then later on, I might get on Disney and Nickelodeon,” he said. His favorite shows are SpongeBob SquarePants, Good Luck Charlie, The Suite Life of Zack and Cody, and iCarly. In order to be a part of this life-changing experience, Jaelen and his family need support from the community. It is roughly $2,000 to go to Florida, and friends and family have raised money for the first of five payments and ITM in Coshocton has sponsored the second payment, but the family needs continued support. Anyone who would be willing to sponsor Jaelen or who has questions, contact Lisa Brightwell at jaelenbforthearts@rocketmail.com.

Beacon Bicentennial Bits #41 Dr. George W. Crile Dr. George W. Crile, one of America’s most famous surgeons, was born and raised in Coshocton County. He, along with his cousin, also from Coshocton County, and another doctor, founded the Cleveland Clinic. Dr Crile was the first surgeon to use the X-Ray on March 20, 1896, and in 1905, he startled the world by using adrenalin to restore respiration on a supposed dead person. During World War I, he introduced methods of blood transfusion that saved the lives of many soldiers. This “Beacon Bicentennial Bit” was reprinted with permission and taken from the Coshocton County Sesquicentennial book compiled by the Coshocton County Historical Committee and printed by Shaw-Barton in 1961.

Though the night was snowy, Coshocton County Career Center staff, board members and community leaders came out to celebrate local civic leader and entrepreneur Tom Edwards’ receipt of the school’s annual community patron award. For the numerous ways in which Edwards has assisted the Building Trades program at the Coshocton County Career Center as well as student club members, graduates and the school’s administrators, he received two nominations for the school’s annual Lobo Legend award. “Mr. Edwards has truly exemplified what this award is all about,” said school superintendent Debbie Kapp-Salupo, as she expounded on the numerous ways Edwards has served the school and its students. In addition to serving for sixteen years as an advisory committee member for the Building Trades program, Edwards took an instrumental role in helping the program secure a 47-passenger bus and a job site trailer so that the students and equipment could be transported to job sites where their construction services could be performed more efficiently. “That alone has benefited our community and our students in a profound way,” said KappSalupo. Edwards has also sponsored the school’s weekly radio program, Career Center News on WTNS radio for the past several years and has served as both a substitute teacher and guest speaker for student associations on campus. The award itself, a beveled, crystal-like disk with the career center logo etched and mounted on a black lacquered base, will be on display at the Career Center, along with a plaque displaying the names of each year’s recipients. A separate identical award and a career center

“Ya got trouble”

“Ya got trouble”, said Professor Harold Hill, who was played by River View High School junior Nathan Shutt in this past weekend’s performance of “The Music Man”, presented by the River View High School music department. With senior Kasi Karr in the female lead role of town librarian Marian Paroo and a talented supporting cast of several dozen, including musicians, the cast performed to a sold out audience on Friday and a large crowd again on Saturday evening. As with past performances, comments cannot begin to describe the amount of talent on, or behind the stage. River View high school principal Chuck Rinkes said, “We have so many people that are involved with the musical, we have 61 high school and junior high students involved with all of the staff members that are leading them and all the people that have done the sets, costumes and have fed everyone at the evening practices.

Anyone wishing to donate may do so in Lorren Foster’s name at the Home Loan & Savings Bank in either West Lafayette or Coshocton. Lorren is the sister of Garrett, 13, and Raquel, 10. “I just hope everyone keeps praying and hoping for her and doesn’t give up,” Dennis added. “People just need to believe in her and to keep fighting.”

Hundreds gathered at Hopewell School on Saturday, Apr. 9 to enjoy homemade fry pies, sandwiches, socializing and the chance to bid on hand crafted Amish made furniture and many other donated items. Jill Lahna, who coordinated the auction, said, “We never know from year to year – we always get the donations but we never know about the people. But they all came out today. We can’t thank the community enough for their support. For the past two years we have put aside money for a pavilion outside so the community can use it for picnics and family get-togethers. We’re still raising money for that. And part of the money also goes to the recreation program for the Industries. I just want to thank the community because they really are great.”

is ‘not improving fast enough for them’. “They had quit paying in March so we’ve had to fight to keep her in (House South). Long term care in a nursing home is what we’re fighting to keep her out of because she won’t get the same type of therapy she’s getting now and we feel that will set her back. That’s why we’re trying to raise all the money we can to keep her in there.” While Kim Foster commutes to Morgantown 2 or 3 days a week to be with Lorren, Dennis has been instrumental in going as far as contacting Congressmen and legislators to organizing and assisting with fundraisers ranging from auctions, T-shirt, candle and purse sales. Currently, wrist bands with the message “Lorren’s Recovery” are being sold. “These next few months are her critical moments,” Dennis said. “That’s definitely one of the biggest concerns that they have already stopped paying,” Miller said. “I think until May 5 everything seems to be okay but after that it’s up in the air.” Essentially, the fundraising provides another type of “insurance” that Foster, who turns 18 on May 7, will be afforded the time she needs to allow her brain to “rewire”. “Everybody in this community really loves Lorren and those of us who are really close to her are compelled to do something other than just sit around and mope,” Feldner said. “I know personally that if it were me in Lorren’s shoes, she would be doing the same thing for me. “This community hasn’t had a tragedy like this in a long time and everyone is trying really hard to keep positive, to keep thinking of her and keep people praying. It’s been a very emotional ride, not only for the track team, but also for the student body and the community. Her accident was in August and the part that we have focused on was making sure people remembered her not only in August, not only in September but now. In April and then again this August. “Lorren has always had the mentality that she was going to give it her all and if she came out on top, fine. If not, at least she always had a courageous attempt and I know that as soon as she recovers, she will be the same way. That’s a message we can all use.” The fundraising and awareness efforts on Foster’s behalf have impressed Miller, her family and her husband Homer, whom Lorren affectionately knows as “Pappy”. “I have never seen a community like this,” she said. “Things like this and faith in miracles have kept me going. The doctor says we’ll get there, our priest says we’ll get there. We have given a lot of prayer and I believe she’s there and she’s trying really hard.” Meanwhile, Miller will continue to cherish the small moments with her first-born granddaughter. “On Saturday, she was very alert and watched TV almost all day,” she said. “She

If anyone is adept at clearing hurdles, it would be Lorren Foster. The 17 year old had always excelled in athletics, and should be experiencing her senior season with the Ridgewood High School track & field team as a hurdler and sprinter, but instead she is battling to overcome the biggest obstacle in her life. Lorren is suffering from a traumatic brain Injury, and a large group of people gathered in West Lafayette on Sunday to help her fight the fight. “I think everybody on the track team has Lorren’s initials written on the spikes that they wear,” said Luke Feldner, a classmate and National Honor Society President. “There hasn’t been a day where anybody complained about having to run because we know she would give anything to be out there with us.” Currently a patient at a rehabilitation facility in Morgantown, W.V., a 5-K run/walk was held in West Lafayette to help raise funds that will help the oldest daughter of West Lafayette resident Kim Foster to continue receiving the care she needs. Feldner and the National Honor Society were instrumental in conducting Sunday’s event, in which 170 participants helped raise money and heighten spirits. Foster was seriously injured on August 25 when a semi-truck collided with her car at the intersection of US 36 and Ohio 93. Just two days into her senior year, she was suddenly being lifeflighted to The Ohio State Medical Center in Columbus. She was discharged on November 10 and eventually was transferred to House South in Morgantown. Since then, she has shown progress but as far as her recovery is concerned, grandmother Ruth Miller can describe it with one word. “Slow,” she said. “It’s a long, drawn out process. It will take a long while but we will get there,” said Miller, who resides in Carmichaels, PA, but was in West Lafayette with supporters on Sunday. At House South, Foster goes through a regimen of occupational, physical and speech therapy that begins at 8 a.m. in the morning and continues until 4 p.m., an opportunity that hospitals and nursing facilities typically aren’t able to offer. “I see improvement in her every day,” Miller said. “She’s becoming more alert. She’s opening her eyes, looking around, blinking, and moving her hands and arms. Her trach has been removed. She doesn’t speak yet but makes sounds and is able to swallow much better than she did.” Sadly, not everyone sees Foster’s situation the same way. “We’re fighting with the insurance company,” said Traci Dennis, whose son Skylor is especially close to Foster as her boyfriend. The insurance company is balking on continuing benefits behind the stance that Foster

Junior Achievement of North Central Ohio announces 2011 JA Titan Business Challenge Winners Junior Achievement of North Central Ohio is excited to announce the winners of the 2011 JA Business Challenge. This year’s event took place on Friday, March 11 at The University of Akron from 7:45 a.m. – 2:30 p.m. at the Gray and Karen Taylor Institute for Direct Marketing. Seventeen student teams, with more than 50 students from area high schools including Archbishop, Hoban, Buckeye, Copley, Coshocton Christian, Highland, Hudson, Stow, Wooster, and Cuyahoga Falls competed in the 2011 JA Business Challenge. Using JA Titan, an online business educational program, teams competed against one another for market share in the fictitious Holo-Generator Industry. First place winners were Team Wooster 2 from Wooster High School, which received a $500 cash scholarship. Second place winners were Team Hoban 2 from Hoban High School, which received a $100 Savings bond. Third place winners were Team Coshocton 1 from Coshocton Christian School, which received a $50 Savings Bond. Consolation Round winners were Team Hudson 2 from Hudson High School and Team Stow 2 from Stow High School. Team Wooster 2 from Wooster High School will have the privilege of advancing to the JA Titan US Virtual Competition this April to compete for the title of national champion! Each student team was paired with an area Business Advisor that helped students understand how the principles used in the simulation are applicable to the real world. During the virtual
competition, students experienced how success of failure of a business is dependent on how well they manage key decisions such as pricing, marketing strategies, and R & D investments. Through this exercise, students come to a better understanding of the competitive nature of the free enterprise system. Participants in the JA Business Challenge had the opportunity to hear from keystone Speaker Mr. Ray Leach, CEO of Jumpstart Inc. Mr. Leach is a national though leader on entrepreneurship and innovation and is at forefront of affecting economic change both in Northeast Ohio and Nationally. Junior Achievement is thankful from the support of this year’s sponsors including Lockheed Martin, Exxon Mobil, The Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company, Smith Dairy, Bridgestone Americas, Interactive Media Group, The Maynard Family Foundation, FedEx Custom Critical, Firestone Polymers, WAKR, Papa John’s Pizza, Pepsi, Main Street Gourmet, Country Pure Foods, and Toth Photography. Junior Achievement of North Central Ohio is a solutions provider. They strengthen their community by providing local students with the knowledge and skills necessary for them to succeed in work and life. JA’s independently evaluated programs focus on financial literacy, entrepreneurship and workforce readiness in school classrooms and after school settings. All programs are presented by local community volunteers who serve as positive role models and mentors.

Operation Pride involved a clean-up program for the downtown area April 20 – May 2 and included members of the local girl scouts, the Key Club, and 3rd and 4th grade students.

The statistics are that one in three women will be a victim of sexual assault at some point in their lifetime, which is staggering. When you say one in three, that is so great. I don’t think a lot of people know that.

COTC takes Bronze Paragon in National Marketing Awards
The National Council for Marketing and Public Relations (NCMPR) presented Central Ohio Technical College (COTC) with a prestigious Paragon Award during the recent national conference in Philadelphia, PA. The bronze paragon award was in the category of logo design: the college was recognized for excellence in graphic design and overall appeal for its ThinkSemester logo, which was conceived and designed by Leslie Lenzo McLaughlin, Senior Graphic Designer at COTC. ThinkSemester is the college’s semester conversion process which is being overseen by key leadership at COTC in order to prepare students and the campus for this exciting transition from a quarter-based to a semester-based system of higher education. “COTC’s vision is to be the number one technical college in Ohio,” said Bonnie L. Coe, Ph.D., COTC President. “Toward that end, we strive for excellence and are always proud when that excellence is recognized. Through the talents and commitment of professionals like Ms. McLaughlin, we are progressing toward that vision.” NCMPR’s prestigious Paragon Awards recognize outstanding achievement in communications at community and technical colleges. It’s the only national competition of its kind that exclusively honors excellence among marketing and PR professionals at two-year colleges. Winners hail from large, multi-campus districts and small institutions, from large staffs with healthy budgets and from one-person shops with limited resources. According to the NCMPR Web site, the awards show that creativity, originality and unique approaches to problem-solving set the winners apart. The National Council for Marketing and Public Relations is one of the fastest-growing affiliates of the American Association of Community Colleges. NCMPR today has more than 1,550 members from more than 650 colleges across the United States, Canada, and other countries. Go to www.ncmpr.org for more information. Visit www.cotc.edu/thinksemesters for more information about the college’s conversion to semesters, which will occur in autumn 2012.
