Learn about agriculture at First Farm Days

By Beth Scott beth@coshoctoncountybeacon.com

COSHOCTON – For the past several years, Coshocton Soil and Water Conservation District has teamed up with Our Town Coshocton to host an agricultural-themed First Friday event, and this year will be no exception.

“The goal of the whole event is to have a program to help the public understand the importance of agriculture in our community and beyond,” said Deb Bigelow, district administrator of Coshocton Soil and Water Conservation District.

West Lafayette Homecoming

COSHOCTON – WIC is trying something new this August that the whole community is invited to come out and enjoy. Instead of their traditional community baby shower they are having a nutrition fair from 8:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.

Wednesday, Aug. 4 to celebrate breast feeding awareness month and kids eat right month.

“There will be family friendly info and lots of fun activities for kids,” said Cindy Hilbish, RDN, LD from the Coshocton County WIC office.

One activity she and Willa Hamersley, director of the Coshocton County WIC program, are really excited about is the kids’ food activity where they will make a fruit pizza using WIC certified foods.

“We want them to see that healthy foods can be fun and tasty,” Hamersley said. “Also kids are more likely to eat something if they make it. We want to open their eyes to something different.”

Part of Kenilworth Avenue, which runs next to the WIC office on Seventh Street, will be closed for a farmer’s market, where WIC recipients will be able to use their farmer’s market coupons.

Ohio School Boards Association encourages voting yes for River View I am writing in support of the River View Local School District’s combined bond and permanent improvement levy on the Aug. 2 ballot.

Funds generated by the 5.20-mill measure will build a new elementary school and renovate the middle and high schools.

The cost is $15.55 a month per $102,500 of home evaluation.

The plan is to close the four existing elementary schools, which are half empty due to enrollment drops. The buildings have become outdated, inefficient and expensive to operate.

The state has agreed to pay more than $9 million (19 percent) of the more than $52 million in construction costs.

With limited Internet access and electrical capacity and obsolete HVAC and plumbing, the need is real. Not only does this make for poor learning environments, there also are significant health and safety risks.

This investment will ensure a strong future, and I encourage River View Local School District residents to vote FOR the bond issue on Aug. 2.

Richard Lewis Executive Director Ohio School Boards Association Columbus

Voting yes for RV is an easy choice We have an easy decision to make. We have the chance to vote for the River View School Levy.

My wife and I both attended school in River View and our two kids both graduated from River View.

They have done an excellent job of educating our children but they need our help.

They have been very frugal with our money and are the last school in the county to ask for help.

We all know that education is a key factor to allow our kids to succeed. We all want our children to return to Coshocton County to live and thrive. For our children to return they will need jobs. Businesses look at how well we have invested in our schools.

Having 100 year old buildings for our kids is not investing in their future. Do you think it was a coincidence that Kraft almost doubled their workforce after the city of Coshocton invested in their new elementary building?

Consolidation will mean better efficiency with a better education for all. Invest in our future – our kids. Vote yes for the River View School Levy.

Correction There are two corrections to the letter to the editor “River View School Tax Levy Ripoff” that appeared on page 6 of the July 20, 2016 issue of “The Coshocton County Beacon,” Volume 9, Number 12. Line 20 should read “all administration” instead of “all administrative staff.” Line 61 should read “the administration” instead of “the administrative staff.” Auto text was engaged by the writer.

| LETTER TO THE EDITOR

The time to move forward is now On August 2, 2016, we in the River View Local School District will have the opportunity to finally bring about the culmination of 50 years of becoming a quality, unified, educational community. I have experienced that effort first hand. In 1956, I was a proud Conesville Viking. In a few short years, because of the ability to offer greater educational opportunities, I became a Patriot of the River View District, along with the Roscoe Tigers, the Keene Cardinals, and the Pleasant Valley Eagles.

Finally, after a few more years, the Three Rivers District was consolidated with two more quality districts, the Union Trojans and the Warsaw Pirates to form the River View Local School District.

Since the fall of 1965, the River View District has been actively involved in making sound educational programming that benefits all students and allowing many graduates to advance into life, impacting our local area as well as the world. I am very proud to be recognized as a Black Bear alumnus with so many others.

Our current elementary buildings have served us well for many years, but now they have aged to the point that they are affecting the district’s financial ability to provide our most precious commodity, our children, the educational opportunities they deserve.

I, as well as many others, hold precious memories of these buildings from which we came. The past needs to be remembered, and we can do that in our hearts and memories. I will always remember Butch Bible’s last second basket in the Conesville gym which allowed the Vikings to win, as well as other moments important to me. The time is now to remember the past, but realize that over 50 years we have always been the River View School District, even though we have been schooled in the old buildings throughout the district. The time has come when our children, deserving the very best, must come together and leave behind the outdated and costly buildings and come together to the River View District’s Educational Campus.

The greatest gift a person can give a child is a topnotch education. If the child uses this educational opportunity, they can have a secure and productive life. No one can steal an education from a child. Even if the child chooses not to use what we offer them, we can rest-assured that we did our best to provide them a life-changing gift.

I hope you will join with me to give these great young Black Bears the opportunity to come to our educational campus, thus completing the true consolidation of our district. Our past has been honorable. Our future as a family called The River View Local School District shall continue to achieve the educational excellence for many years to come.

| LETTER TO THE EDITOR

Reader shares thoughts on River View levy I have some serious fiscal thoughts on the Aug. 2 elementary school levy proposal.

One, borrowing $41 million at 4% interest over 38 years equates to 84 million payback to the bank. Two, accepting $9 million from state gov’t is obligating the Coshocton taxpayer to giving up local control over your elementary schools to state gov’t., i.e. possible common core rules, school library inventory, mandated salaries for teachers, mandated tenure for teachers, mandated teacher membership in the NEA union, and mandated Davis-Bacon wages for school maintenance employees. Say good bye to your PTA. Three, the economic health of Coshocton county is declining compared to other Ohio counties. A property tax increase of $84 million over 38 years will certainly further degrade the economic health.

Higher tax rates will discourage investment in Coshocton County, resulting in fewer job opportunities for our graduating students. Fewer job opportunities will result in an exodus of our youths between the ages of 16 and 25,….. never to return to Coshocton county. The tax base will drop within ten years, resulting in financial default for the school dis-

trict, default for county government. In addition, Coshocton County will become further dependent on the federal gov’t for its very sustainability. Your kids & grand kids will abandon Coshocton County. Higher taxes will lower property values. Higher taxes will degrade the local culture, degrade the family cohesiveness, and degrade the local churches’ messaging. Four, a new school building will do nothing to increase the quality of education for our children. The building has little to do with the quality of the education, or the quality of the curriculum. The quality of the class room teachers will determine the quality of our children’s education. Local rule can do more for quality of education than the building. Five, postponing this tax hike for five years is a reasonable approach so as to enable a better assessment of the school district’s needs. If we jump before we’re certain of the outcome, we may experience serious, “buyer’s remorse”.

Note: those pressing for this expenditure have self serving motives, i.e. an immediate pay out for themselves. Consider the motives of the RV school administration staff, the bankers, the union construction

companies, the insurance companies, the regulating & permitting federal, state, & local gov’t agencies. Six, let’s repair the four elementary schools as needed, create a building fund of our own, let’s leave common core in Wash DC, let’s leave the self-servers behind us, and let’s carefully consider our finances without pressure from groups that don’t consider the taxpayers best interests in mind. Seven, most Coshocton county taxpayers want

less gov’t in their lives, not more gov’t in their lives.

I urge you to vote no on the proposed $84 million elementary school levy on Aug. 2.

JULY 27, 1966 CHS senior John Mellett tied for the second in the Ohio Jaycee Junior Golf Tournament. Mellett tied with Tom Tuckerman, Columbus, at an even, or rather odd, 71 par. Larry Nicolet of Lima led the pack at 68.

JULY 25, 1976 A new business had come to Coshocton. Phase III Hair Cutters had opened on 1006 Main Street. It was owned and operated by three Newark men who had previously operated a similar business in Newark.

Fred Davino, Dave “Doc” Edmunds and Bob Weaver all attended the Ohio State Barber College and then studied advanced techniques at the Vidal Sassoon Hair Training Center. In addition, both Davino and Weaver studied under famed hair stylist Paul McGregor. They made the move to Coshocton due to the large number of Coshoctonians that drove to Newark for their stylish cuts.

Jim “Dobby” Dobson on his birthday July 26th

Joshua G. Fisher, CRPC® Financial Advisor 0010_050416

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

NEWCASTLE – Jim Williamson had no connection to the tombstone for a 2-year-old child that died in 1886, but he just couldn’t ignore that it needed fixed.

“It’s in the back of the cemetery and is a little stone with a lamb carved on top of it,” he said. “My wife and I are in and out of here a lot placing and removing flowers and wreaths and it was like it was yelling at me.”

Before he knew it, Jim was out at the cemetery in Newcastle where his wife’s side of the family the Dalieres have relatives buried, fixing the tombstone that he couldn’t get out of his mind. He had his wife Mary Ann with him to keep him company and pea gravel with him that was donated by Walhonding Valley Sand and Gravel. Soon they found more tombstones to fix and the Newcastle Township Trustees pitched in and provided Jim with three to four tons of gravel. Then he decided the project was much bigger than him and he asked for help from his fellow Warsaw Lions Club members.

A project that started with one small tombstone in October 2015 is still going strong today. Many of the small older stones have been straightened back up, but there is still plenty of work to do including making sure some of the veterans there have their graves properly marked. Jim also is working on getting some of the broken headstones glued backed together.

“A lot of these stones date back to the mid 1700s up to the Civil War,” Jim said. “Most of these people don’t have family around here anymore and some of them are names you don’t hear anymore.”

Some of the stones took anywhere from four to six hours to get straightened and Jim estimates his group has put in a total of 300 hours of work at the cemetery.

“We’ve done a heck of a lot of work, but hopefully they will stay up,” he said.

JULY 26, 1976 Mary Vesta Williams left Coshocton with dreams of being a singer. Now she returns as Vesta, a soon to be star with a solo album coming out. She worked with the Commodoes, Rufus, Anita Baker, Jeffrey Osbourne and most recently Gordon Lightfoot on his “Anything for Love” as a background artist prior to A&M Records producing her album. She credits her family for their support and encouragement. Particularly she credits her grandmother, Vivian Williams, whom is a local artist. Throughout her high school career she would sing on the weekends throughout her high school career. According to her agent Regina Jones, of Jackson and Jones Management, and Vesta herself, the background work formed a disciplined and flexible base that helped her to achieve the high standard she set for herself. Jones himself was a native of Cleveland and had joined Vesta on her trip home in order to better understand his client. He liked the support Vesta had received from the community and he said, “She’s going to make this town proud, very proud.” According to Vesta, her small town origins were nothing to be ashamed of. “There’s a certain kind of charm and earthiness and freshness from a small town that appeals to people who aren’t from there... I started with no glitz and no glamour. It was an advantage. My naiveté helped. If I had known what it would be like, I might not be where I am today.”

JULY 29, 1956 The grand re-opening of the newly-remodeled J.J. Newberry store had been set for Aug. 3. Construction began the previous September to expand the store using the A&P market, at 437 Main, for additional space.

The store featured 44 different departments and 44,000 wares in stock. E.O. Bowman, store manager, said that the older departments had been expanded and several new lines of merchandise had been added. The store would also feature all of the latest features of modern merchandising such as air conditioning and a credit service. The Coshocton store was established in 1923 as the 39th store in the national chain. The chain had 480 stores throughout 47 states.

COSHOCTON - Public speaking: For some, it’s a walk in the park, but for most, it’s one of our greatest fears. On Tuesday, July 19 a handful of 4-H students combatted those fears as they gave presentations on a wide variety of topics during a public speaking competition at Frontier Power.

According to Analea Smith, it’s important for not just these kids, but all kids to polish their public speaking skills.

“Being able to speak in front of people is a major skill that a lot of people lack and it’s important that kids develop these skills at a young age because they are valuable when it comes to things later in life such as job interviews,” said Smith.

Some of the topics touched upon during the competition included gun safety, the dangers and cost of tobacco usage, and even how to make homemade butter. One topic in particular, which was presented by Piper Andrews and Kiera McPeck, demonstrated how to perform a science experiment entitled, “Fizzy Foam Fun.” According to McPeck, nerves aren’t too big of an issue for her when speaking in front of an audience.

“Sometimes I get nervous at the beginning, but once I get used to the audience I’m usually fine from then on,” said McPeck.

For Andrews, her favorite part of their presentation stemmed farther than the experiment itself.

“I really liked performing the experiment; but, my favorite part was just being with Kiera,” said Andrews.

Midsummer produce at Coshocton Farmers Market COSHOCTON - It’s midsummer, and we can feel it with the scorching temperatures of the past week. The lack of rain has been tough for local farmers and gardeners.

New plantings refuse to germinate, and salad greens get bitter in the heat and drought.

Fortunately some crops thrive in the heat, as long as they have enough moisture. Local growers are busy watering tomatoes and peppers, which enjoy the hot weather. There should be tomatoes available at Coshocton Farmers Market this Saturday, from sweet, tiny cherry tomatoes to heirloom and large beefsteak tomatoes.

Check for other midsummer favorites as well—sweet corn, green beans and other tender beans, zucchini and yellow summer squash, new potatoes, cucumbers, garlic, onions, Swiss chard, beets, kale, melons and more.

Other foods available at the market to round out your menu are pastured meats, farm-fresh eggs, local honey and maple syrup and homemade jam.

Shoppers can buy delicious home-baked items like summer berry pies, cinnamon rolls, gourmet cupcakes, white and wheat bread, and cookies. Other goods for sale include gourd art, handmade jewelry and more.

It’s the season of plenty, and this frittata of mixed summer vegetables from www.cdkitchen.com makes a flavorful and nutritious main dish.

Skillet Frittata with Fresh Summer Vegetables 2 tablespoons olive oil 1 Spanish onion, coarsely chopped 1 clove fresh garlic, minced 1 red bell pepper 1 green bell pepper 1 yellow bell pepper 1 medium summer squash 1 medium zucchini 1/2 teaspoon fresh oregano 1/2 teaspoon fresh thyme 3 ripe plum tomatoes 2 tablespoons butter 12 eggs, slightly beaten 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley 1 cup grated sharp cheddar cheese Fresh ground black pepper Salt (optional) Cut peppers, squash, and zucchini into quarter-inch strips. Dice tomatoes into quarter-inch cubes. Set aside.

Heat olive oil in large sauté pan over medium heat. Add onion and garlic. Sauté until translucent. Add peppers, squash, zucchini, oregano, and thyme and gently sauté until vegetables are slightly firm but not overcooked.

Remove from heat, add tomatoes, but do not stir.

Heat a 15-inch sauté pan with butter. Add beaten eggs

to pan. Once eggs begin to set, add vegetables to the top.

Arrange colors, do not stir. Top with parsley, cheddar cheese, black pepper and salt, if desired. Cover and cook over low heat until cheese is melted and eggs are no longer watery. Loosen sides and slide onto warm plate.

Serves 4 to 6.

Clark’s Orchard boasts beautiful peaches

By Beth Scott beth@coshoctoncountybeacon.com

COSHOCTON – Bob Clark, owner of Clark’s Orchard on Morgan Run Road in Coshocton, was surprised one morning while viewing his five acres of peach trees. His five-year-old Red Haven peaches glistened in the hot summer sun with a beautiful yellow-orange color that really made them something unique.

“The weather made it tough to have anything this year,” he said. “So we are thankful for the ones that we do have.”

The weather and the lack of rain weren’t the only factors that affected his produce this year. The cicadas also made their appearance on Clark’s land and he did everything he could to protect his fruit.

“I sprayed at least every seven days to try to control the locusts,” said Clark. “I probably should have sprayed every five days. They stung some of my smaller tree limbs.”

Other than the weather and other insects, Clark has to be wary of birds and other wildlife that will eat his fruit or even damage his trees. He said that a deer can severely damage or kill a tree in just one night.

“People have no idea how hard it is to raise fruit,” he said.

In order to protect his orchards, Clark has tied flash tape around tree limbs, placed plastic bags on a few limbs to scare birds away, and has installed a chirp system, which plays bird distress signals. He also prunes his trees annually and sprays for insects 18 times a year.

The 25-acre orchard, which was started in 1956 by Clark’s father, yields not only peaches, but plums, apples, and nectarines as well. Clark sells his produce at the

Bob Clark is the owner of Clark’s Orchard on Morgan Run Road in Coshocton. This year, his peach trees have produced a beautiful harvest of peaches.

Fresno Farmer’s Market each Saturday in downtown Fresno from 8 a.m. – Noon.

“We are locally-grown,” he said. “We don’t sell anything we don’t grow.”

A typical day for Clark begins with checking his trees, walking around the orchard and making sure there are no problems and that things continue to grow as they should. Clark picks peaches every three days and the best way to tell if a batch is ready for picking is to taste one of them.

“I like to work outdoors,” he said.

“That’s my thing. People who say I have such nice peaches, that keeps you going too.”

Clark’s wife, Rita, does all the sorting and sales. In addition to selling at the Fresno Farmer’s Market, Clark’s fruit is also available at Buehler’s and Schumaker Farms.

River View Levy questions addressed WARSAW – River View Local School District has a proposed bond issue and tax levy on the ballot for the Aug. 2 special election. Voters are being asked to help support a building project that will result in the closing of all four current elementary buildings in the district and the construction of one new elementary building attached to the existing junior high school. If the issue passes, River View’s junior high and high school also will receive renovations. The following are River View Superintendent Dalton Summers and the River View Board of Education’s answers to questions The Beacon asked them about the proposed bond issue and tax levy.

1. How many years is the bond issue for? The 4.7 millage is for 38 years, the mandatory .50 millage is for 23 years 2. How much money will the bond issue raise for the River View Local School District? $43,456,780 3. What is the OSFC share of the total project cost? $9,020,226 4. How will the money be used? All money from the 4.7 mills as well as the OSFC share will be used towards the construction of the new elementary building, renovations to the junior high and high school, the potential demolition and abatement of the existing elementary buildings and additional traffic lanes needed to enter and exit the campus. (based on traffic study completed in 2015) The .50 mill portion of the issue is a mandatory amount required by the OSFC to ensure the upkeep and maintenance costs that may be associated with the new buildings.

5. Why was the decision made to build one elementary school attached to the junior high school and also renovate the junior high and high school? To participate with the OSFC (Ohio Schools Facility Commission) and receive their funding of 19%, River View had to have a plan that met their standards and specifications. First, we had to address all grades PK-12; we could not just focus on elementary buildings. Second, we could only renovate any buildings that cost less than 2/3 the cost to build new.

All of existing elementary buildings were determined by both private architects and the OSFC architects to be not eligible for renovation. Third, OSFC will only co-fund buildings with a minimum number of 350 students, so our options were limited to building one or two elementary buildings. After reviewing several plans, the River View Steering Committee submitted ideas and wishes to the OSFC, who, in turn, presented the Board of Education with our current plan as the option that would benefit the most

kids and maximize the most state dollars.

This plan also met our local benchmarks of becoming more financially efficient with operations, creating a safer environment for our kids and meeting the needs for a 21st century education.

6. When would the new and renovated facilities be expected to be completed provided the levy passes on Aug. 2, 2016? OSFC architects as well as our private firm estimates between 3.5 to 5 years for total completion of the project.

7. What is the plan for the current four elementary schools provided the levy passes? Once students would move into the new facility, the Board of Education would have the following options for all four buildings: (in order of preference) 1. The local village or community can take over the building for community use. (within the parameters of what the law will allow) 2. The buildings and grounds can be sold at public auction.

3. There is budgeted money within the plan to abate and demolish the existing structures.

What we cannot do is keep and maintain the existing structures.

8. Why is this issue being placed on the ballot for special election on Aug. 2 instead of November? River View has two opportunities to run this issue with the OSFC’s 19% on the table. After the first of the year, we are confident that 19% will again drop based on the trends of the past five years and the fact that our enrollment has not increased but our land values have. We would have placed the issue on the primary in the spring of 2016 but due to the early primary, the Board of Education did not feel there was enough time to educate the community.

9. Why should a property owner in the River View Local School District vote for the levy? All public schools in the State of Ohio are funded by the local communities or districts. It is the responsibility of the local community and district to provide the best education for its young people so that they can and will be successful citizens. Each adult and property owner was given the same opportunity as a child when the adults at that time made the commitment and sacrifice to provide safe and appropriate environments for them to learn. In our case, some of these environments were built 70 to 100 years ago. We can all agree that what was considered a safe environment in that era has changed drastically.

None of our buildings have fire suppression systems or are handicap accessible.

They are not built or designed to monitor incoming visitors who may intend to harm. They have unsafe structural issues

that often can’t be identified until something happens. Our buildings were designed to prepare students for the world in the 20th century, not the 21st century.

Studies show that we are preparing our elementary students for jobs that have not yet been invented. Our kids have to be able to problem solve through the use of technology. We have to provide at least a base infrastructure for technology capabilities to be able to train and educate our children. Our current environments do not meet these needs. While this bond issue carries a significant cost for the physical environment, it will create the opportunity to become more efficient with our current operational funds. We have determined a minimum of $750,000 a year savings in operational costs just by eliminating three campuses and coming to one. We will be able to provide more services to more kids through this restructuring.

So, the “why” is because our kids deserve the same opportunities to prepare for the future as their great grandparents and grandparents were given by this community many years ago.

This bond issue is not a Board of Education, administration or teacher project but rather a River View Community responsibility.

10. Do you expect students to be on the bus longer for the trip to the new elementary school? The fact is that there will be some elementary students on a bus longer than they are now. There will be some elementary students on a bus for shorter times. We will be adding some additional routes to try to ensure no student will be on longer than the longest ride is currently. The RVLSD covers 376 square miles and provides education for just over 2,000 students. Unfortunately, the cost to educate these students over the years has increased beyond the ability to effectively accommodate this low density, high mileage circumstance with several smaller rural buildings. We may explore some direct routes which will cut ride times considerably for some students.

11. What will the bond issue cost a typical homeowner with a home valued at $100,000 in the River View Local School District? $15.17 a month 12. Is there a plan if the levy fails on Aug. 2? If so, when will that information be shared? As we stated before, we are on the Aug. 2 ballot because we have two opportunities to run this same plan. Of all the OSFC plans the steering committee and the Board of Education considered, this is the best plan for ALL STUDENTS and it maximizes state dollars available to the district. The Board of Education

has begun the legal process to make sure we can be on the ballot again in November, if need be, with this plan. We certainly are optimistic that this will not be necessary; however, the Board must continue to be responsible and leave all doors open. The Board of Education will meet soon after Aug. 2 to evaluate the results. If the need to be on the November ballot is there, we will meet with our community steering committee and discuss all options, as we have since the beginning of this process. The votes on Tuesday, Aug. 2 will be the best gauge, to this point, of the direction we need to head next.

13. Is there anything else that you would like the residents in the River View Local School District to know about the bond issue and the plan in general? The Board of Education fully understands that this plan requires extreme sacrifice, major commitment, and willingness to make changes that we, as adults, sometimes struggle to see the value in. We believe that our duty is to put the education and well being of our students as our top priority when making all decisions. We know that our buildings are failing and are not able to be “restored” to an acceptable standard. We know that while we love our small community school buildings, the cost to educate children, along with the decline in enrollment, prohibits us from maintaining our current four elementary design.

We know that we are currently using tax money to maintain the demands of old buildings instead of using it to prepare kids for tomorrow. We know that our buildings and structures fall short of the safety standards, the technological infrastructure standards, the efficiency standards, and the overall educational appropriate standards for the 21st century. Due to all these things, the Board does not believe this is a plan based on wants and desires, but rather a plan based on duty, responsibility, and need.

We thank this community for all past and future support you have given and will continue to give to the students of River View Local School District.

Pete and Marie Madsen are the authors of “Book of Boomers: Our Journey through Life.”

Marie said a lot of people they interviewed never really stopped to look at their life.

“The book wasn’t just about telling stories, it was also about giving them insight on how they came to be who they are,” she said. “We also got to know people better and value them even more.”

Their book costs $15 and all proceeds go to the MERCI Fund, a fund the Madsens created that is dedicated to helping others help themselves.

COSHOCTON – We all have stories to tell and can learn a lot about each other if we take the time to listen.

“People don’t take time to talk and ask each other about their lives,” said Pete Madsen. “Life stories matter.”

Madsen and his wife Marie decided to share the life stories of some of the people they’ve met throughout their journeys in life in their new book, “Book of Boomers: Our Journey through Life.”

Pete is a retired “When you put school teacher who your life into loves to tell stories and words you start Marie has practice writing people’s stories to think about because of her work as guardian ad litem. By things differently. aplaying on each other’s You look to see strengths they were able to record the stohow things ries of 10 different peoprogressed, who ple and share a little bit themselves and you are and why about the more than 6,000 miles they traveled you are here.” while doing research for their book.

-Pete Madsen The people they interviewed were friends, neighbors, or one time co-workers who are all Baby Boomers born between the years of 1946 and 1964. They all had experience in a variety of fields from artists to educators to retired pilots and a number of other careers.

“When you put your life into words you start to think about things differently,” Pete said. “You look to see how things progressed, who you are and why you are here.”

“My mother had a relative on her side of the family that was a millionaire that everyone inherited money from,” Marie said. “We decided to use our part of it to help other people.”

The MERCI Fund has helped sponsor scholarships and donated to other community projects anonymously.

-Marie Madsen “That is where I retired from and Dave Skelton (the principal) and I thought it would be a good experience for the students,” Pete said. “That is where our future writers are.”

Both Pete and Marie are thankful for those who allowed them to share their stories and hopefully make a difference in people’s lives.

COSHOCTON – Dave Dilly has gone on nine Honor Flights and considers himself lucky to have had those experiences.

Honor Flight Columbus flies World War II and Korean War veterans for free to Washington, D.C. for the day to visit memorials dedicated to their service and others as time allows. In June six Korean War Veterans from Coshocton County took Dilly the trip and they were invited to share their experiences at a special Honor Flight Luncheon held July 21 at the Senior Center.

The Coshocton County Veterans Service Commission, with the help of Dilly who is a guardian on the trips, occasionally organizes luncheons to help spread the word about Honor Flight.

“On our last trip, not one single veteran complained,” Dilly said. “They all kept a grin on their face and we had a great time and perfect weather.”

During the luncheon Dilly shared a slide show of pictures from the trip and explained how the process works. Veterans have to apply for their opportunity to take the trip, but once they are accepted and notified of their flight date, Dilly gathers the local residents together for a meeting at Hardee’s to answer questions and ease nerves. The day before the trip they meet at Wal-Mart and travel to Columbus together where they stay overnight in a hotel by the Port Columbus International Airport. The next day they fly together with others

taking the trip to Baltimore, Md. and then travel by bus to Washington, D.C. Those on the honor flight are greeted with a hero’s welcome just about everywhere they go and the busses they ride on are escorted throughout the entire day. When they return to Columbus, each and every veteran on the trip is personally welcomed home and has their named announced.

“You start to realize that someone really does care,” Dilly said. “I think when we came back this last time there was in the neighborhood of 700 people waiting for us.”

Honor Flight’s original goal was to take World War II and Korean War veterans to see their monument, but starting this spring it also will be open to Vietnam Veterans.

“We are very fortunate in Columbus,” said Linda Conrad, from Honor Flight Columbus, who attended the luncheon in Coshocton. “People have been very generous and we are able to continue on with Vietnam.

A lot of hubs stopped after they got their World War II Veterans to D.C. That was our original purpose because it took so long to get a monument built for them. We continued on with Korean then and now we are able to help Vietnam Veterans too. We decided it’s our place to get all veterans to see their monuments in D.C.” Dilly said an average trip costs $56,000. Honor Flight covers the cost for veterans but guardians, who are there to assist veterans, pay $300 to be part of the trip.

Many organizations have made donations to help veterans cover their travel expenses to Columbus and SEE MORE VETERANS ON PAGE 17

The Conesville Methodist Church was the scene of the wedding that took place 50 years ago on July 2, 1966. Miss Mary Louise Guilliams, daughter of the late Mr. & Mrs. Lester L. Guilliams, of Conesville joined hands with Richard Francis Saylor, son of the late Mr. & Mrs. Earl J. Saylor, also of Conesville. Given in marriage by her father, Miss Guilliams attendants were Miss Sandra Guilliams, maid of honor and Miss Ramona Saylor, bridesmaid. Fred Saylor served as best man to his brother and Harold Guilliams Sr. was an usher.

The Saylors have been blessed with four children: Richard (Tabby), Roger, David (Brenda), and Sylvia (Trevor). They have eight grandchildren: Shawn, Shelby, David Jr., Kristina, Kelsey, Colt, Kody, and Danielle. They are expecting two great-granddaughters this fall.

The ice cream social at Prairie Chapel was held Thursday, July 21 and there was hardly a spot left to sit in the church’s fellowship hall. Sounds of laughter and light-hearted conversations could be heard during this long-standing tradition event at the church.

Guests loaded up their trays with delicious shredded chicken sandwiches, sloppy joes, hot dogs, cole slaw, potato salad, noodles, and a wide-variety of desserts. Not to mention the three different flavors of ice cream to choose from. During the social, the church collected a love offering that will go toward the various missions the church sponsor.

FRIDAYS The ever-popular pedal pull will be back again this year. There will be five classes and the Coshocton Fair has donated admission and ride passes for each class. First place will receive three passes, second place will receive two, and third will receive one. The pedal pull is sponsored by Farm Credit Services.

“The pedal pull is pretty popular,” said Rick Williamson, Our Town Coshocton events committee chair. “There’s always a big crowd.”

The stamp card for the kids will return this year, but instead of kids having to visit all 18 vendors, they can choose nine to go to this year. After they’re finished, they will receive free custard from Whit’s donated by Whit’s and Farm Credit Services.

In addition, there will also be goats, sheep, beef steer, and farm equipment at the event. The Coshocton County Antique Tractor Association will also be bringing some of their tractors for people to enjoy.

“It’s educational,” said Williamson.

“We’re getting people who are not able to get around the agricultural world and getting city kids involved to see what it’s like to be involved in agriculture.”

“WIC participants will be able to have their cards loaded, get their farmers market coupons (if they haven’t already) and redeem their coupons for lots of health food for kids,” Hamersley said. “Visiting the market also can count as an education day for WIC families.”

A fire truck will be on display outside and AAA will be there to do car seat checks on a first come first serve basis. Coshocton Behavioral Health Choices YALT youth group will be doing face painting and playing games with children, Great Clips will be there doing activities such as hair braiding, a walk-in shot clinic will be set up for children with Medicaid cards and information on a number of parenting topics including breastfeeding, dental care, parenting, nutrition and pregnancy resources can be gathered.

“I think we have 23 different stations or vendors coming,” Hilbish said.

Those who attend the information tables will have the chance to win door prizes that include passes to the fair with rides, movie tickets, aquatic center passes and much more.

“We reached out to a lot of people and got positive responses,” Hilbish said.

Door prize donors include: Allstate Insurance, Coshocton Bowling Center, Coshocton County Fairboard, Help Me Grow, Coshocton/Knox County Jacob Vanaman Agency, Inc., Lake Park Aquatic Center, Medela, Nationwide Insurance, Portraits in Time Photography, LLC, Shelby Theatre and State Farm Insurance.

The nutrition fair will be held at 724 S. Seventh St. and there will be activities inside and outside with REACT helping to direct traffic in the parking lot area. For more information, call WIC at 740-622-2929.

“We serve children five and younger and pregnant and breast feeding moms, but kids of any age can come to the event,” Hilbish said. “We want everyone to know what resources are available in Coshocton and get the message out that parents, grandparents and foster parents don’t’ have to go at it alone. There are resources to help people out.”

She hopes that this can become an annual event.

“We hope to get feedback from the community and find out what they need from us,” Hilbish said.

CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1 Bigelow hopes that those in attendance will appreciate what an important part agriculture plays in our daily life.

“This is where our food comes from,” said Bigelow. “It’s more than food, it’s your clothing as well, but it’s important that they understand where their food comes from and what an important industry it is.”

There will also be a cruise-in on Fourth Street. Main Street from Third Street to Fifth Street will be blocked off for the event.

Other than agriculture, the Walhonding Rube Band will be playing at the courtsquare and there will be a musician performing at the ParkSPACE. “Hal Walker is a children’s musician,” said Ann Cornell, director of the Pomerene Center for the Arts. “He did a concert for third graders the Friday of Dogwood Festival and it was a great concert.”

First Farm Fridays will be Friday, Aug. 5 from 5 – 8 p.m. This is a free event on Main Street in Coshocton which begins in May and runs until September each first Friday of the month.

“It’s been a pleasure to work with Rick Williamson and Our Town Coshocton,”

WEST LAFAYETTE – The 69th annual West Lafayette Homecoming will be Thursday, July 28 through Saturday, July 30 and will pay special tribute to Coshocton County coal miners with the theme, “Coal is King”.

“Sam Bennett came to a chamber meeting and talked about the coal miner memorial and someone said, that would make a great theme for homecoming,” said Oren Griffith, chamber president and member of the homecoming festival committee.

To honor those miners who have passed away, there will be a poster in the chamber headquarters with names of all the coal miners.

“I didn’t realize there were that many coal miners in Coshocton, but there’s a big list,” said Griffith. “We’ve had a lot of people call in and add a name to the list, so hopefully we didn’t miss anyone.”

The festival will also honor coal miners by allowing people to donate items to the merchandise drawing giveaway in honor of a coal miner. The master of ceremonies in the parade will also be a miner.

Friday from 5 – 9 p.m., the Coshocton Genealogy Society will be selling miner and cemetery books, and

Saturday, an Ohio author will be selling books on coal miners of Ohio.

Griffith said there will be a lot more vendors at the festival this year and that the entertainment lineup promises to have something for residents of all ages.

“The area businesses have been very supportive of us,” said Griffith. “We send out letters to businesses at the beginning of the year to help sponsor the entertainment and the response is always great. If it wasn’t for them, we couldn’t afford the entertainment.”

Each year after the homecoming, the chamber begins searching for the entertainment for next year’s homecoming event. Griffith said it is a year-long search.

One new event this year will be a balloon pop for the kids. Kids can purchase a balloon, pop it, and each balloon will have a number inside that will correspond with the number on a prize.

“That way, every kid gets a prize,” said Griffith.

Griffith said one reason the festival is so popular is because the activities cater to all different age groups.

“It’s a good time for people to have fun,” said Griffith.

“We try to have something for kids all the way up to older people. There are people I only see once a year, and that’s at the homecoming festival.”

This past year, I have had the opportunity to travel around the state of Ohio and learn many new things. I have also gotten the chance to meet new people and make many new friends all while representing our wonderful little town.

During my reign, I have traveled to a lot of festivals. Some of my favorite festivals were: the Apple Butter Stirrin’ Festival, the Deersville Bicentennial, the Geneva Grape Jamboree, and of course the West Lafayette Homecoming Festival. Traveling to these festivals took me as far north as Lake Erie and as far southwest as Williamsport, Ohio. While traveling, I have made many wonderful memories with my court – who have become my sisters! I Contributed | Beacon have enjoyed spending time with this rambunctious group of girls, giving them advice Josey Lillibridge was the 2015-2016 West on various topics, and always reminding them Lafayette Homecoming Festival Queen. to be who they truly are.

Throughout the year, my court and I have everyone who has supported me and my court participated in many community service in any way. Special thanks goes to my mom projects. These projects included: the Chestand step-dad, my dad, all of my grandparents, nut Crossing block party, wacky bowling my siblings, and Chuck and Shanna Weaver – for the Blue Star Mothers, Halloween in the without your support and love, I wouldn’t be Park, ringing the bell for the Salvation Army, where I am today!

Fair decorating theme announced COSHOCTON - The Kamelid Kushers 4-H Club met July 18 at the Haumschild farm. Members voted to work at the Walhonding Valley Museum and take donations to the animal shelter for community service projects. A road trip adventure was selected as the fair decorating theme. Members discussed upcoming evaluations and potential club trips. Alyssa Horn gave her demonstration on keeping llamas cool in hot weather and Allie Mizer presented a demonstration on birthing a cria. The health tip was on proper use of bug spray and the safety tip was on wearing seat belts. The recreation activity was acting out your favorite summer activity. The next meeting will be Aug. 18 at the Haumschild Farm between completing community service projects.

COSHOCTON – The Coshocton County Commissioners met Monday, July 18 to discuss and sign two agreements between The Ohio State University and the Coshocton County Commissioners to create a secondary access road to the Coshocton County Airport. One document was an access agreement stating that Ohio State University gave the commissioners permission to use their property to create the secondary access road. The second, a Memorandum of Understanding stated that the Ohio State University will grant roadway easement for the secondary roadway. Plans for this project have been in the works since 2011.

The commissioners also met with Emily Adams from the OSU Extension office regarding an email she had received from the State of Ohio Department of Administrative Services asking for available office space at the Coshocton County OSU Extension Office to house one person from the Ohio Department of Mental Health.

They are seeking two offices, one in eastern Ohio and one in western Ohio.

The commissioners were concerned that the staff at OSU would be handling calls for the ODMH. They were also concerned that the ODMH would be expecting free office space.

“I am hesitant to put another department within your department,” said Commissioner Curtis Lee. The commissioners denied access to the OSU Extension office, but said they will look for other offices in the area that may accommodate them.

“I would be open to finding out more information of what this department is looking for to see if we have more offices in the county to accommodate them,” said Commissioner Dane Shryock. “But we need more information first.”

Cherokee’s baseball team clinches third state tournament berth

By Andrew Everhart

COSHOCTON - On Wednesday, July 27 Bob Bigrigg and his fellow coaching staff will lead the Coshocton Cherokees 19-U baseball team to the State Senior American Legion Baseball Tournament just as he did 40 years prior. However, this time he will be returning not as a player, but as an assistant coach.

This year marks the third time that the Cherokees baseball team has advanced to the state tournament, a feat that only the 1976 and 2011 teams can attest to. Bigrigg expressed that he is not only proud of his son Josh, who is on the team, but also each and every player who has played an intricate part in paving the team’s way to its third state tournament.

“I’m very proud of each and every one of those boys because they’ve worked toward their goal and have

ultimately achieved it. Now the next step is to refocus as we head down to Lancaster so we can do all that we can to win the tournament,” said Bigrigg.

Bigrigg credits much of the Cherokees’ success to their excellent pitching and defense that they’ve showcased throughout this season.

“We’re very fortunate to have an experienced baseball team which a number of the boys have been a part of for up to three to four years now so that experience certainly makes a big difference when it comes to playing in big games. This year we’ve been particularly strong both pitching wise and on defense so those aspects of the game have truly been our keys to success both during the season and moving forward into this tournament,” said Bigrigg.

The Cherokees, which essentially is composed of an all-star cast of players from numerous schools, have re-

According to Bigrigg, “It seems to me like we have a different player each game that steps up and is able to carry us forward to victory so that just goes to show the depth and quality of players that we are so very fortunate to have on this team.”

The Coshocton Cherokees will be back in action on Wednesday, July 27 at 1 p.m. at Beaver’s Field in Lancaster as they take on St. Clairsville in their first game of the double elimination tournament.

Local teen tries hand at travel ball

COSHOCTON - For Devin Ryan, baseball is something that is always on his mind.

Commissioners approve changing load rate on Tiverton Township bridge

By Beth Scott beth@coshoctoncountybeacon.com

COSHOCTON – Andrew Jones of the county engineer’s office, met with the county commissioners on Monday, July 25 to discuss safety issues with a bridge over the Mohican River on Township Road 365 in Tiverton Township. The bridge is a single-lane bridge that is 210 feet long and 16 feet wide, and there is 26 feet from its deck to the water below. Until Jones met with the commissioners, the bridge had a load rate of 40 ton. Jones proposed and the commissioners agreed that due to safety issues, the load rate should be lowered to 10 ton. The last load rate was conducted in 2010.

The bridge was last renovated in 1994 when new weathering steel trusses were added. These trusses have a chemical reaction to the weather and “recoats” itself. This was seen as the up-and-coming technology at the time, but the process prematurely deteriorates the bridge.

The bridge is inspected annually and recently, Jones was advised by bridge inspectors Hammontree and Associates that there were several areas of concern for the bridge.

“If something would happen, it would have a significant impact of the vehicle involved,” said Jones.

The engineer’s office was recently denied federal highway funding for the bridge for the fiscal year 2022. They hope to apply again next year for the fiscal year 2023. The grant is an 80 percent grant and the estimated cost is 1.5 million.

The commissioners also met with Jeanette Wi-

erzbicki, executive director of OMEGA to discuss upcoming projects that they are funding. The Otsego Avenue project, scheduled to begin this year, received funding from ARC funds.

“I think you all realize how bad Otsego Avenue is and with Kraft expanding, that was our justification for that project,” said Wierzbicki.

The Coshocton County Road 10 paving project received approval just last Friday to receive OMEGA funding.

“County Road 12 was so miraculous how it came together,” Wierzbicki said. “The private / public partnership was so fantastic.”

Other programs available to provide funding are: A $50 million coal industry program that can benefit both Ohio and West Virginia; and a Regional Transportation Plan that has several projects listed including improvements on the SR 541 and SR 16 interchange which is funded for construction in 2018 or 2019, sidewalk projects in Coshocton and Roscoe, and another exit and entry at the Coshocton Airport.

Health Services and Hospice of Coshocton celebrating anniversary COSHOCTON - This year, 2016, marks an important milestone in the life of a local, nonprofit organization, Health Services and Hospice of Coshocton, as they celebrate 30 years of serving the Coshocton Community.

What started out as a local “home grown” agency providing Hospice services, has grown in 30 years to also offer home health services, Extra Care, private pay program, Passport provider services, and DD services.

The organization began from ideas pulled together by very forward thinking, community minded, persons who had read and heard about the hospice concept of care that had originated in England.

This hospice idea had come to the United States with hospice programs springing up largely in the East Coast area. Many of the interested Coshocton folks thought that the idea of hospice care should also be offered to the Coshocton community. These folks pulled together information and a film about hospice care that was shown in church basements to various community persons, hoping to get more and more community people interested in the idea. From those meetings, more and more people did embrace the idea of hospice care for the Coshocton community.

After much work meeting Medicare regulations and establishing initial funding through support from the Coshocton Foundation, the Schooler Foundation and the Dr. Richard Emmons Fund, as well as numerous local service and church groups, the Coshocton community gave birth to a hospice program.

A handful of staff persons including Pam Gwinn, Barb Emmons and a board of directors were ready to go to work offering this new program which provided com-

passionate, comfort care to those persons dealing with end of life issues.

In 1986, the first hospice patient was enrolled and cared for, followed by many more. Since 1986, around 3,000 Coshocton residents and their families have been served by the hospice program.

As time went on, the organization, called Hospice of Coshocton, looked at other ways to serve the Coshocton community. When Coshocton Hospital wanted to sell its Home Health agency, Hospice of Coshocton purchased the agency and the name of the organization changed to Hospice and Home Health of Coshocton.

On down the road, again to meet community needs, the Extra Care program was added as an option for people to have the ability to private pay for additional services not covered by Medicare, Medicaid, or private insurance. These were services that elderly folks might find helpful to allow them to remain at home a little longer.

Around this time, the organization also started to serve the DD community and the organization’s name was changed to Health Services of Coshocton at that time because it was felt that there were many health services being offered under the one organizational name.

Still later, the organization became a Passport provider, so there were many ways that the organization could assist the Coshocton community and still can to this day.

In an effort to help the community know and remember that Hospice services were still an important part of the organization, the name of the organization was again changed several years ago to Health Services and

Hospice of Coshocton and is the name it currently is known by in the community.

The organization will be celebrating in a variety of ways during the rest of the year, but some major events are being held the first week of August with special mid-day open house times complete with health care speakers, and discussions on care choices. Those events are being held Tuesday through Friday, Aug. 2-5 starting at 11 a.m. and ending at 2 p.m. each day. Free blood pressures will be taken at this time and staff will be available for a “meet and greet” time with refreshments.

The community is invited in for the open house activities and speakers on each of these three days.

On Friday, Aug. 5, from noon to 8 p.m. the organization will have a large community yard sale with items donated from the Health Services and Hospice Staff members. All proceeds from this will go back into the community to help children with school supply needs.

Also a free carnival will be held in the yard of the Health Services Building complete with a snow cone machine, bounce house, face painting, a hot dog stand, popcorn, lemonade and water, all in an effort to say thank you to the community for allowing the organization to serve in the community for 30 years. More information about these celebration events can be obtained by calling 740622-7311.

The whole Coshocton community is invited to come and celebrate with Health Services and Hospice of Coshocton - a nonprofit Hospice and Home Health agency built by our community to care for our community.

Follow these tips to stay safe around water WARSAW – Thanks to the American Red Cross area youth have had the opportunity to take swimming lessons this summer at the Lake Park Aquatic Center and the Warsaw Community Pool.

“I think it’s important to take swimming lessons because we don’t just teach them to swim,” said Darrell Dunfee, water safety instructor. “There also is a safety aspect to the lessons.”

Red Cross swimming lessons also can lead to a passion for competitive swimming.

“The higher you go in lessons the more strokes you learn,” Dunfee said.

“Some kids have started with Red Cross swimming lessons and went on to Rising Tide.”

Most of all, the volunteers teaching swimming lessons want children to learn to be safe and comfortable in water. If your child didn’t get to take swimming lessons this summer, these tips from the American Red Cross’ website www.redcross.org/take-a-class/ swimming are important to share with them.

Make Water Safety Your Priority • Swim in designated areas supervised by lifeguards.

• Always swim with a buddy; do not allow anyone to swim alone. Even at a public pool or a lifeguarded beach, use the buddy system!

• Ensure that everyone in the family learns to swim well. Enroll in age-appropriate Red Cross water orientation and Learn-to-Swim courses.

• Never leave a young child unattended near water and do not trust a child’s life to another child; teach children to always ask permission to go near water.

• Have young children or inexperienced swimmers wear U.S. Coast Guard-approved life jackets around water, but do not rely on life jackets alone.

• Establish rules for your family and enforce them without fail. For example, set limits based on each person’s ability, do not let anyone play around drains and suction fittings, and do not allow swimmers to hyperventilate before swimming under water or have breath-holding contests.

• Even if you do not plan on swimming, be cautious around natural bodies of water including ocean shoreline, rivers and lakes. Cold temperatures, currents and underwater hazards can

make a fall into these bodies of water dangerous.

• If you go boating, wear a life jacket! Most boating fatalities occur from drowning.

• Avoid alcohol use. Alcohol impairs judgment, balance and coordination; affects swimming and diving skills; and reduces the body’s ability to stay warm.

Prevent Unsupervised Access to the Water • Install and use barriers around your home pool or hot tub. Safety covers and pool alarms should be added as additional layers of protection.

• Ensure that pool barriers enclose the entire pool area, are at least 4-feet high with gates that are self-closing, self-latching and open outward, and away from the pool. The latch should be high enough to be out of a small child’s reach.

• If you have an above-ground or inflatable pool, remove access ladders and secure the safety cover whenever the pool is not in use.

• Remove any structures that provide access to the pool, such as outdoor furniture, climbable trees, decorative walls and playground equipment.

• Keep toys that are not in use away from the pool and out of sight. Toys can attract young children to the pool.

Maintain Constant Supervision • Actively supervise kids whenever around the water - even if lifeguards are present. Do not just drop your kids off at the public pool or leave them at the beach - designate a responsible adult to supervise.

• Always stay within arm’s reach of young children and avoid distractions when supervising children around water.

• Know What to Do in an Emergency.

If a child is missing, check the water first. Seconds count in preventing death or disability.

• Know how and when to call 9-1-1 or the local emergency number.

• If you own a home pool or hot tub, have appropriate equipment, such as reaching or throwing equipment, a cell phone, life jackets and a first aid kit.

• Enroll in Red Cross home pool safety, water safety, first aid and CPR/AED courses to learn how to prevent and respond to emergencies.

River View schools receive Heart Safe School Accreditation WARSAW – The SADS Foundation recently approved all of River View Local School District’s buildings for Heart Safe School Accreditation River View Local School District is only the fourth school district in the country to have all schools within the district accredited. The SADS Foundation commended the district for: Level of professionalism and thoroughness of your applications; Number of staff trained in CPR; Defined plan to continue the process for the future; Utilization of a drill summary checklist for process improvement; Outstanding drill submissions with very engaged and focused staff and students.

To recognize the achievement, the SADS Foundation will provide a certificate of accreditation as well as a banner for each school.

The concept of River View becoming an Accredited Heart Safe School arose about two years ago with Shelley McPeek, RN, School Nurse for River View Local School District’s affiliation with Genesis in Zanesville and after she attended an Ohio Association of School Nurses conference.

“In addition to being the school nurse at River View since 2000, I have worked in the CCU and in the Heart and Vascular Diagnostics Department at Genesis for the past 30 years,” said McPeek. “Seeing the impact of heart disease and the importance of being prepared for medical emergencies, I felt it was important for River View to be even more prepared in the event of a cardiac arrest. Being the only school nurse for River View’s 2,100 students and over 200 staff members in six different

buildings, I obviously can only be in one place at a time.

Therefore, it is very important that the staff in each of the buildings knows how to recognize an emergency

“I felt it was important for River View to be even more prepared in the event of a cardiac arrest.

Being the only school nurse for River View’s 2,100 students and over 200 staff members in six different buildings, I obviously can only be in one place at a time.”

-Shelley McPeek RN, School Nurse for River View Local School District and how to respond in the most effective way. I cannot say enough about the employees at River View and their willingness to learn how to deal with medical emergencies.”

Most all of the employees at River View, including bus drivers , custodians and maintenance, food service,

para-professionals, teachers, secretaries and administrators participate in CPR/AED training every other year. In addition, all students in grades five through eight participate in CPR/AED training every other year and all students in high school must take CPR as part of their health curriculum. AEDs have been in all River View buildings since 2003.

The Heart Safe School Accreditation involves seven elements, many of which were already in place in the district, except for elements one, three and seven. River View Schools implemented all seven elements during this past school year. Element three required each building to conduct three emergency medical response drills. Staff who participated in these drills did an outstanding job in first recognizing the emergency, calling for help and implementing CPR and using the AED until advanced medical help arrived.

“We hope that cardiac arrest never happens in one of our schools but our staff is well prepared to care for the children, and adults, who are entrusted to us each day,” McPeek said.

Roscoe Village shows appreciation for members

By Andrew Everhart

COSHOCTON - The Roscoe Village Foundation held its annual members’ day celebration on July 23.

The celebration, which was free of charge for members, included tours, canal boat rides, children’s activities, a barbeque, and much more.

Stacie Stein, an employee of the village, says that members’ day is important to Roscoe Village due to its influence.

“I would say that members’ day is especially important to our area because it draws new people here and allows us to show our appreciation for members. Some of our members haven’t been here for a few years now and this day gives them an opportunity to see some of the new things that the village has to offer,” said Stein.

Members’ day participants were offered discounts which included a 20 percent off membership discount and numerous other discounts throughout the village. Members were also treated to free admission to attractions such as the Johnson-Humrickhouse Museum and canal boat rides as well.

WEST LAFAYETTE - On Saturday, July 23, River Greens Golf Course hosted the 11th annual Habitat for Humanity Golf Scramble. More than 20 teams competed against one another in the blazing summer heat as the thought of taking home the $1,000 grand prize loomed large in their minds.

This year’s golf scramble also featured other attractions such as a skins pot, a 50/50 drawing, a lottery wreath, poker hand, and many different on course games as well.

According to Habitat for Humanity Executive Director Brittleigh Smith, “The proceeds from today’s event are going toward our 2016 build effort of house number 16 for our partner family of Jason and Faith Murphy and their children.”

Habitat for Humanity has set a fundraising goal of $26,000 for house number 16 and is truly grateful for all who came out and participated in this year’s Habitat for Humanity Golf Scramble.
