2008 The Coshocton County Beacon

Company, Inc. of Evansville, Indiana have released “All They Left Behind: Legacies of the Men and Women on The Wall.”

Published in commemoration of the 30th Anniversary of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial (The Wall) on the National Mall in Washington, DC, the hardbound book reveals the personalities, histories and courage of more than 50 individuals who gave their lives in service to our country during the Vietnam War. A portion of the proceeds from the book benefits the Education Center at The Wall.

Vietnam Veteran Jim Buday likes the idea of the book, but would also like to see more officials step up and help fund the Education Center.

“As I recall, funding the building of “The Wall” was very difficult and a lot of funds had to be donated by those who were to be honored by it,” said Buday who is formerly of Coshocton County, but now lives in Kentucky. “I know our local Vietnam Veterans donated through various groups and individually. I’m sure that the book would be an interesting read. I’d also like to know the portion amount. If the administration can spend money as foolishly as they have, they could do some good and assist with the Education Center’s funding.”

into a project to identify all of the Vietnam War dead from Dearborn, Mich. After partnering with the VVMF in their Call for Photos project, Dearborn, Mich. teacher Lisa Lark was soon gathering photos and stories from all over the United States. “All They Left Behind” is the result of more than two years of research and over 500 interviews with Vietnam Veterans and the friends and families of the men and women on The Wall. These 61 profiles, along with thousands of others, will be featured at the forthcoming Educational Center at The Wall.

The book is a large 9” x 12” format with 120 pages. It retails for $37.50 and is available through the publisher at 1-888-263-4702 or www.mtpublishing.com Established in 1979, the Vietnam Veterans Memorial Fund is dedicated to preserving the legacy of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial in Washington, D.C., promoting healing and educating about the impact of the Vietnam War. The Education Center at The Wall is a place on our National Mall where our military heroes’ stories and sacrifice will never be forgotten.

Support the Education Center at The Wall by visiting www.buildthecenter.org or by calling 866-990-WALL. “The Wall itself means a lot to me, as well as the Grunts Memorial (Three Soldiers) and Service Women’s Memorial (The Nurses),” Buday said. “Knowing that the millions of visitors to Washington have the opportunity to see and hopefully pay tribute to those who sacrificed so much because America asked them to, gives me hope that the efforts and sacrifices will be appreciated and remembered.”

“For that cost you get dinner and learn a lot from some really great teachers who are experts in their areas,” Adams said. “We really appreciate the support of our sponsors.”

Annie’s Project is a national program started in Illinois by an Extension Educator who named the project after her mother who was a farmer.

“I hope this helps women feel competent and confident when working with their parents, husband or other business partners and that they realize they have something to bring to the table,” Adams said. “I also hope it helps them gain the knowledge they need or tools they need to help them take the next step. I’m very excited about Annie’s Project.”

Annie’s Project was previously offered in Coshocton in 2009.

To sign up for Annie’s Project, stop by the OSU Extension Office at 724 S. Seventh St, Room 110. Registration is due by Friday, Jan. 11 and is limited to 20 women.

Medal of Distinction given to Raymond Border’s family CONTRIBUTED TO THE BEACON BY REPRESENTATIVE BRIAN HILL

COLUMBUS - Nov. 15, was a solemn day in the Statehouse. State representatives and senators met in the House chamber to honor some of Ohio’s bravest men and women who gave their lives fighting for our country.

This year marked the third annual Ohio Military Medal of Distinction ceremony, an event that commemorates the sacrifice of military members from across the state. The families of 28 service members—representing the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines and Coast Guard—were recognized before the General Assembly and accepted the Medal of Distinction on their behalf.

Sadly, our area lost one of its own in 2011. Navy Chief Petty Officer Raymond J. Border, of West Lafayette, died in October of last year while serving in Afghanistan during Operation Enduring Freedom. The news of his death brought home the magnitude of war and the sacrifice that comes with it. The Military Medal of Distinction is but a small token compared to his service to the United States, but it serves as a symbol of our appreciation and respect for his selflessness.

The Nov. 15 ceremony in the state capitol was a reminder of the great costs associated with freedom. Although it is tragic to see just how many families received the honor for their fallen loved ones, I hope the event was able to provide them with a feeling of unity to know that they are not the only ones going through such a difficult time.

At times, it seems today’s culture is quick to idolize people based on their perceived fame or stardom. Sometimes they garner the spotlight with behavior that is destructive or even immoral. These are not the individuals we want our children to emulate or admire. True heroes are not born on television. Often, we are surrounded by them and do not even know it.

Twenty-eight of them, including Chief Petty Officer Raymond Border, were commemorated last month in the House chamber.

This Christmas season, I encourage you to take time to remember our fallen men and women who make our freedom possible.

COSHOCTON – Softball isn’t just a summer and fall sport anymore.

The Coshocton Softball Players Association (CSPA) now has a winter league that started in November and will wrap up in mid-December.

“Someone asked me just before the fall season ended if I ever thought about starting a winter league,” said Steve Hammersley, director of the CSPA. “We’ve had winter tournaments before but never a league. We ended up with four teams.

I was surprised by the interest. It was great.”

The league is for men and games are played on Wednesday nights at Lake Park.

“If they needed a girl to help out that was ok,” Hammersley said. “I opened the rules up for the league. We had an open roster so players could come and go.”

The concession stand also was a little different for this league.

“We had coffee and hot chocolate,” Hammersley said.

Games are only canceled due to fog or rain. Cold weather only makes the games more interesting.

“When a softball gets cold it goes further,” Hammersley said. “Batters on A diamond were hitting balls on the road and that’s a long shot and it sounds like you are hitting a rock with the bat. The guys are having a lot of fun though.

They are already talking about doing the league again and hopefully we might get more teams.”

DECEMBER 12, 2012 THE BEACON CLASSIFIED HOTLINE 622-4ADS

COSHOCTON – The Coshocton County Commissioners met Dec. 5 for their bi-weekly meeting.

Appointments Recommended 622-4947 Walk-ins Welcome • Behind Coshocton Bowling Alley During the meeting, Melinda Fehrman of the Job and Family Services spoke about employee salaries AND DOWN-HOME HOSPITALITY and a wellness and benefit plan for classified staff members.

Fehrman reported that the Job and Family Services agency could afford a two percent per year increase in salary. Their mission with this salary increase is to be competitive with other Job and Family Service salaries in the state and also acknowledge the work of their staff. The salary increase would be $0.30 an hour in 2013 with a total average increase of 1.7 percent. Over the next four years, there would be an increase of $1.63.

WE CAN TRAIN YOU! Fehrman also proposed that the Job and Family Services implement a wellness benefit program as a way to reduce sick leave. Fehrman said they had three staff members who did not take any sick leave so far this year. For 2013, she would like to reward the staff who do not take any sick days, on a quarterly basis. Classified staff members would receive $25 for the first quarter with no sick days, $50 the second quarter, $75 third quarter, and $100 for the fourth quarter, with an option of making $250 that year.

Fehrman proposed a four-year study of the program to see its effect on employee sick days. She has studied this program in other counties and said it seems to be working. Classified staff at Job and • Multi-Craft Maintenance Family Services have 15 days per year for sick leave.

December 16th, 1962 Mrs. Minnie Zinkon loved to quilt. In fact, she had just started on her 101st quilt and had framed her 100th quilt to proudly display in her home. Zinkon started making quilts when she was 17 years old, although when she got married, she said she had no time to quilt. When her husband passed away, she started her hobby again, and she enjoyed making quilts for others. She had even made 10 quilts for one person. Zinkon used her grandmother’s quilting frames for all of her quilts.

December 12th, 1982 Amy Ransom wanted to thank the March of Dimes for all they had done for her, so she decided to do a benefit concert. The awardwinning vocalist from Coshocton had been born with only one eye and was able to have several artificial eyes due to funding from the March of Dimes. Ransom had been singing all her life and took first prize at the Ohio State Fair, out of 58 vocalists from around the stat. Ransom sang for weddings, civic events, and preferred Christian music. She was also booked for many area concerts during weekends.

“We want to help them have a good Christmas if they can’t afford it,” Goodman said.

The tree started off with 20 tags, but as of Dec. 5, there were only nine children left to buy for. Their wish lists and needs include everything from clothes to coats to Barbies to dump trucks.

“Everyone who has benefited from the tree has been pretty grateful,” said Christina Ferguson, who also belongs to the parent committee.

1952

December 14th, 1952 Staff Sgt. Raymond Larr of Coshocton County was about to marry a young woman he had never met before. The two were pen pals while Larr was serving in the Air Force.

Mariam Brown, the bride-elect, was from Iowa and had recently quit her job there to fly to Coshocton to meet her pen pal and future husband. The two met in person just six days before they were to be married. After he alighted from his plane and happily kissed his bride-to-be, Larr told the press, “She’s everything I hoped she would be and more.”

The two started corresponding when Brown’s brother had shown Larr a picture of her while they were in the Air Force. I guess you could say for Larr, it was love at first sight.

BYESVILLE - As financial exploitation targeting older adults continues to become more prevalent, the Area Agency on Aging Region 9 joined a nationwide campaign to encourage older adults and their families to address the issue and to become informed about the warning signs and resources available to help prevent abuse. Research shows that as many as 5 million older adults are victims of elder abuse each year and financial exploitation costs seniors an estimated $3 billion annually.

As part of its 10th Annual Home for the Holidays campaign, the Eldercare Locator, a public service of the U.S. Administration on Aging that is administered by the National Association of Area Agencies on Aging (n4a), is encouraging older adults, caregivers and their families to use their time together this holiday season to discuss and look for ways to prevent financial exploitation.

There are several signs of financial exploitation for families to look out for, including financial activity that is inconsistent with an older adults past financial history, confusion about recent financial arrangements, changes to key documents that have not been authorized, and an older adult who feels threatened by a caregiver or another individual who is seeking to control their finances.

“Unfortunately, financial exploitation is often committed by a person you know and trust, which makes it even more difficult,” said Sandy Markwood, CEO, n4a. If there are signs or suspicion of financial exploitation, it should be reported to Adult Protective Services through their County Department of Job and Family Services.

“Financial exploitation is a threat to the health, safety, dignity and independence of vulnerable older adults,” said Kathy Greenlee, Administrator, Administration for Community Living and Assistant Secretary for Aging. “This holiday season, we encourage families to spend some time asking older family members some basic questions to ensure that their finances are in good hands and that if there are signs of abuse, that the right steps are taken to stop it.”

Here are some tips to help prevent financial exploitation: • Get an estate plan in place. Talk with an attorney about creating a durable power of attorney for asset management, a living will, a revocable, or living, trust, and health care advance directives.

• Learn how to avoid fraud and scams at www.stopfraud.gov/protect. html.

• Consult with a trusted person before making any large purchases or investments.

• Do not provide personal information (i.e. Social Security number, credit card, ATM PIN number) over the phone unless you placed the call and know with whom you are speaking.

• If you hire someone to help you in your home, ensure that they have been properly screened with criminal background checks completed. Ask for certifications when appropriate.

“Financial exploitation can be prevented if people know the right questions to ask and where to turn for help,” said Mary Twomey, MSW, Co-Director, National Center on Elder Abuse. “Although it is a sensitive issue and one that can be difficult to broach, it is critical for families to address it, and there are many useful resources available to guide them through the process.”

The National Center on Elder Abuse partnered with the Eldercare Locator to produce a brochure that is available to prepare for this discussion with loved ones this holiday season. To receive a copy of the financial exploitation brochure or for more information about the Area Agency on Aging Region 9 and the programs they offer in Belmont, Carroll, Coshocton, Guernsey, Harrison, Holmes, Jefferson, Muskingum and Tuscarawas Counties, call 740-439-2294 or toll-free (800) 945-4250, extension 4602, for an Information & Assistance Specialist or visit their website at http://www.aaa9.org.

of Dec. 31, 2013. The same law set the deadline for Iraq War veterans as the third year following a date determined by the President as the end of the conflict.

Tentatively, this date is the termination date of the Iraq Campaign Medal, which was Dec. 31, 2011, making the deadline for bonus application for service in Iraq Dec. 31, 2014. No deadline has yet been announced for the Afghanistan War. “Every veteran who’s served during our recent wars is eligible for the bonus,” said Coshocton County Veterans Service Officer Jim Barstow. “We’re very pleased with the response we’ve had to this point, but we’re not going to relent in getting out the word to all of our Gulf War and Iraq veterans.”

The citizens of Ohio overwhelmingly approved the Ohio Veterans Bonus in November 2009 for veterans of the Persian Gulf War, Iraq War and Afghanistan War eras. To date, nearly 150 veterans have applied for the Bonus through the Coshocton County Veterans Service Office “I am asking that our entire Ohio veterans’ community be sure that our veterans of today know about the bonus, and take the time to apply for it,” Barstow said.

To learn more about the Ohio Veterans Bonus, contact the Veterans Service Office at 740-622-2313 or stop by the office at 318 Main St., Courthouse.

Wallace resigns

CONTRIBUTED TO THE BEACON

COSHOCTON - Debra Wallace, Coshocton City Council-at-Large, announced her resignation from Council effective Monday, Dec. 31.

Wallace has served on City Council for 13 years on numerous Council committees.

She currently serves on the Infrastructure and Insurance committees and chairs the Finance Committee.

“I am honored to have served the City through such financially difficult times. While we didn’t always agree, Council and the Administration have worked through issues to keep the City in the black” Wallace said. “Our local economy began to get squeezed long before the national economy, so we have been in a tough balancing act my entire time on Council.”

And still, in spite of so little discretionary money, she believes the City has been able to leverage private monies to accomplish many projects like the Himebaugh Park.

“I can’t say enough about the City’s department heads and how they cooperate and pitch in to get things done,” Wallace said. “We have first-class employees.”

Wallace is looking forward to having time for new endeavors especially raising money to implement a tree program for the City.

It has come to my attention that there are a lot of Christians in Coshocton County that when they are asked why they don’t attend church they say, “I just don’t fit in anywhere!”

For those that don’t fit in anywhere, I have some questions: Where have you looked? - or better stated What are you looking for?

Do you not fit in because the building isn’t what you think it should be?

Is the carpet the wrong color, the parking lot not up to your standard, or the music too loud or too old fashion?

Have you ever considered that what you bring to worship is as important as what you get?

Have you considered the message? The message that may step on some toes or create a challenge to change lives, if not even your own? The message that creates a need to seek Christ for the answers to life’s issues and not merely yourself?

Have you been to the Branch Church in the last two years?

Have you heard straight forward Biblical preaching that recognizes Christ is not just the only way, but the only perfect man who walked this earth. Have you heard that the blood of Jesus Christ was poured out for the forgiveness of sins - yes, yours too!

Let’s make a deal. You quit making excuses for wanting a Saviour and not a Lord, and we will do our very best to bring people into a growing relationship with Jesus Christ through God’s word, in God’s spirit, by God’s grace. Not because of who we are but because of who we recognize Jesus Christ is! You don’t have to fit in, you just have to be willing to be the man or woman God created you to be.

SELLERS COSHOCTON – Wes Morris isn’t just a master milkshake maker. The Miller Pharmacy employee also has a talent for setting up the business’ Christmas village.

“I like to play with it and be creative, but I also want it to make sense,” Morris said.

The village features 22 buildings and this is the third year Morris has worked on the display, that is mostly made up of items produced by CocaCola.

“Years ago Coca-Cola sent out a catalog for them and then I also got some from different retailers who would put them out,” said Elise Miller, owner of Miller Pharmacy. “I used to always have them behind the fountain but then there got to be too many of them. For a while I didn’t put them up at all.”

She believes Coca-Cola produced its villages and accessories from about 1992 to 2007.

“I liked them because it makes you remember how Coca-Cola evolved over the years,” Miller said.

She enjoys all the pieces in her collection, but if she had to pick favorites it would be the theater and the two pharmacies.

The village, however, is made up of more than just buildings. It also has a tree farm, several modes of transportation with an airplane, a train and vehicles, people and trees and light posts. There also is a snowball fight scene with snowballs that are actually suspended in midair.

“It took two people five hours to put it together,” Morris said. “If it would have been just me it would have taken a lot longer. You have to make sure the lights function and that your scenes are not cluttered.”

While nearly all the buildings and accessories are Coca-Cola there also are some Hallmark ornaments tucked into the scene.

“Everybody loves it,” Morris said. “People that have little villages at home stop in just so they can take a peek at it.”

The public is welcome to stop by to find the perfect Hallmark ornament for their tree and enjoy one of Morris’ milkshakes while taking in the Coca Cola Village.

Sixteen dozen cookies made by 11 different bakers and were judged by the father and son team of Evan and Mike Abood. Evan also shared his musical talents with those in attendance.

The Coshocton Christian Tabernacle also presented The Live Nativity Friday, Saturday and Sunday. The drive-thru event took people through the journey of Jesus’ life. This was the 15th year for the annual event.

Roscoe Village also had a special guest this weekend at Shaker House Antiques.

Roger Moore, a Native American with a Melungeon background was dressed in his reenactors costume and shared authentic jewelry that he makes.

“I really love history and not just Native American history,” he said. “I also like colonial American history. My wife, family and I focus on a 75-year period from about 1750 to 1812.

A lot of things took place in that small window of time that made big changes to how our world turned out.”

Moore will be back at Shaker House Antiques from noon to close Saturday, Dec. 15.

Judge Timothy France and Law Director Bob Skelton had students take the witness stand and seats in the jury to portray some of what occurs in the judicial branch of government. The class took their seats on City Council as they learned of the legislative branch’s duty to make laws on how things are to be done for the good of the city.

CANDLE LIGHTINGS HAVE SPECIAL MEANING FOR FAMILY

The annual candle lightings at Roscoe Village have special significance to at least one family.

The Akins family, from the Wadsworth area, visit Roscoe Village each December to attend one of the candle lightings. The couple became engaged on one of the trips to the candle lighting and it is now a special Christmas tradition for their family.

Pictured are Heather and Michael Akins with their boys, Jacob (left) and Adam.

COSHOCTON - In partnership with the Ohio Benefit Bank, the United Way of Coshocton County is in search of volunteers to take a six hour training that would enable them to prepare free tax returns for qualifying individuals.

Come January, appointments will be taken to prepare free tax returns for individuals who have a combined household income of less than $60,000. Because of this income requirement, this free service could be used by many residents and the need for volunteer tax counselors will be great. No experience is necessary, although a familiarity with the computer is very helpful.

If you are interested in taking the training to become a tax counselor, call Tonja Ward, site supervisor, at 622-7563 or Lyn Mizer, United Way Director at 622-4567.

Holiday Gift Guide

COSHOCTON – Remembering loved ones is important to Barb Emmons and so is giving back to a supportive community.

Emmons, the executive director of Hospice of Coshocton County, accomplishes both of these goals through the Community Remembrance Tree.

The tree in the gazebo at the court square features star-shaped ornaments that display the names of people who have passed away.

“The idea is that the names on the tree don’t just have to be people that were from Coshocton,” Emmons said. “They can be family and friends from any place. My parents weren’t from here and I get a good feeling from being able to put their names on the tree.”

In 2002, when the tree first went up, there were only 300 names on it and in 2011 there were 1,009 ornaments displayed.

“People really like this tree,” Emmons said. “We have people that call in ever year and request a star and having it go up in a certain section so it’s easy for them to find. People often remember their loved ones all year long, but this is a special time for them. We see a lot of people coming down to look at the stars. It can be a real family time.”

The tree also is a community effort.

“Kenny Scheetz donated the tree in memory of his brother,” Emmons said. “He’s been donating it to us for a number of years. He’s wonderful and always gives us a big tree. Tom Edwards from Auer Ace Hardware also brings a ladder up to help us get the tree up and we have staff and volunteers who also donate their time. Without all the different people coming together to help this wouldn’t be possible. It’s one of the nice things about living in a small town.”

She also especially appreciates the help of staff member Marge Donley and volunteer Barb Wilson.

“Marge heads up the project and Barb is like the postman,” Emmons said. “Rain, snow or sleet she picks up the ornaments and makes sure they all get on the tree.”

Volunteers also cut out the stars, outline them in gold and write the names in black.

“They are made out of a material that we are able to clean up and use again,” Emmons said. “We get a lot of repeats.”

The community can request names be added to the tree through Friday, Dec. 21 by calling Hospice at 622-7311 or stopping in at their office at 230 S. Fourth St. “No donation is required,” Emmons said. “This isn’t at all tied to money.

Individuals may request as many star-shaped ornaments as they wish to be added to the tree. One name only will appear on each star.

“We live in a very busy time,” Emmons said. “There is a lot of stress in our world and I think people are just looking for an opportunity to slow down and remember cherished memories.”

questionnaire that is sent to coaches, officials and state association administrators across the country did not indicate a strong desire to use the clock at the high school level.

“In addition to the fact that there is some concern about the costs associated with the use of a shot clock, the committee also expressed a belief that the game is typically played with an up-tempo style even without a shot clock,” said Kent Summers, director of performing arts and sports at the NFHS. “In addition, the committee believes that coaches should have the option of a slowerpaced game if they believe it makes their team more competitive in specific situations. This could be especially true for smaller schools with limited budgets. Since the NFHS writes rules for all sizes of schools and teams, it has to consider what is best for the masses.”

The committee did approve one minor rule change requiring the official scorer to wear a black and white-striped jersey in order to become more visible to the game officials.

According to the NFHS, a 2010-11 High School Athletics Participation Survey found that basketball is the second-most popular sport for girls and third-most popular for boys at the high school level. All told, 438,933 girls and 545,844 boys participated nationwide.

The sport ranks first in school sponsorship of teams with 17,767 schools sponsoring the sport for girls and 18,150 sponsoring the sport for boys.

Coshocton High School boys basketball coach Tom Hilgenberg has a differing point of view.

“I think the 22 games are okay. I like the two extra games because I’d rather play than practice but I also think the season lasts too long,” he said. “It’s just a matter of opinion but I feel the regular season should be over at the end of January.

“The season is long enough. There’s a time in January where it becomes grind. You have to get real creative for about week and a half.”

Hilgenberg believes the driving force behind the expansion was so schools could travel out of state for games that showcased their teams and/ or players.

According to WTNS-Radio Sports Director, Tom Thompson, the last time the number of games was increased came in the 1979-80 season, going from an 18-game schedule to 20.

Thompson added that WTNS also stands to benefit from the expansion from a revenue standpoint.

“We’ve added five games to our broadcast schedule,” he said.

That also opens the door for area high schools to add an attractive game package.

“Maybe down the road we’ll try to do some things with it like a holiday tournament or something like that,” Keesee said.

In another note of interest, the implementation of a shot clock was shot down in Ohio.

Although a shot clock has been employed at the college level for many years, results of a

OHIO - The high school basketball season will contain more games thanks to a decision made by the Ohio High School Athletic Association Board of Directors.

By a 5-4 vote, the board approved a proposal from the Ohio High School Basketball Coaches Association to allow member schools to play up to 22 regular-season basketball games beginning this season.

The additional games will not mean an extension to the season, however. The boy’s season began Nov. 30 with sectional tournament play starting the week of Feb. 18, 2013. Girls play started Nov. 23 and sectionals start Feb. 11, 2013.

“I wasn’t a fan of it as a coach but we’re doing it,” said Ridgewood’s Alan Keesee, who also serves as the district’s athletics director. “As an A.D., you like it because there is a chance for one or two more games and that translates into some added revenue.

“I don’t care for the fact that they’re not lengthening the season at the end of the year and I don’t like having to play three games in a week. I’ve never been a fan of Friday and Saturday games but I know a lot of coaches love it.

“You talk to the old-school guys and they’ll tell you that’s how they did it but in terms of preparation, it’s hard because you’re playing teams on back-to-back nights. As coach, if they were going to extend the season, I’d be all for a 22-game season.”

November volunteer of the month named

COSHOCTON - Muskingum Valley council of the Boy Scouts of America is announcing their nominee for the United Way’s Volunteer of the month to be Dave Snyder.

Snyder took over as Cubmaster for Pack 412 in December 2011. Attendance and programs were falling by the side, and the Warsaw Lions Club, who is the Chartering Organization, asked him to take over. Snyder had been a Scout as a youth, back in the early 1950s, until a car accident limited his abilities. He moved to the Akron area to work for Goodyear, and numerous other tire companies, where he also became a

Scout Leader as an adult. Snyder moved back to Warsaw in 2001. He cited a wonderful experience shortly after the car accident, where he was in a wheelchair, and the boys from his Scout troop came to his house, and wheeled him down to the Six Mile Dam for a camp out.

Snyder loves the outdoors, considering himself quite the outdoorsman, and local historian. He passed on his love for the outdoors, woodcraft, and camping onto the scouting program he is now in charge of and it makes a huge, positive impact on the kids that participate. He also has a grandson now participating and one on the way.

“Dave took over Pack 412 and things

CONTRIBUTED TO THE BEACON

quickly turned around,” said Jay Lockard Sr., district executive. “He is providing a wonderful outdoor experience for the youth, and also is a great knowledgeable, role model for the kids to look up to. I am proud to have someone like Dave as one of our many volunteer leaders. It is great to see people like Dave give up so much of their time to make a difference in kids’ lives, and also for the entire family.”

Snyder also volunteers for the Walhonding Valley Historical Society Museum, Canal Boat rides and Warsaw Lions Club.
