O CHRISTMAS TREE Keene United Methodist Church has been displaying this 12-foot Christmas tree since 1999 that takes six hours to construct and decorate. The tree features more than 4,000 lights and a variety of hand-made ornaments. Each year, the tree is put up the Sunday before Thanksgiving to welcome in the Advent season. “When the members come in, they love seeing the tree all decorated because it means that Christmas is on the way,” said Pastor Dairel Kaiser, who has been pastor at Keene for eight years. “It takes me back to Christmases of old, and it’s one of the things my wife looks forward to every year.” The tree is left up through the Christmas season and taken down on Epiphany Sunday, which will be on Jan. 3, 2016.

Ohio Department of Agriculture lifts bird exhibition ban

REYNOLDSBURG – With no confirmed cases in Ohio and no immediate threat of a Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (avian flu) outbreak, Ohio Agriculture Director David T. Daniels and State Veterinarian Dr. Tony Forshey rescinded the order prohibiting bird shows in Ohio.

Officials urge poultry and bird owners, however, to remain vigilant and cautious in order to protect the health of their flocks during migration seasons. Please see the department’s fact sheet on precautions that can be done to prevent the spread of avian flu at www.agri.ohio.gov.

The order, issued on June 2, 2015, was originally intended to remain in place until April 2016. The ban included county and independent fairs, the Ohio State Fair, and all other gatherings of birds for show or for sale, including auctions and swap meets. Throughout the nationwide outbreak, the department worked closely with Ohio’s poultry producers and the United States Department of Agriculture’s (USDA) Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service to provide

training and to closely monitor the health of poultry in the state.

“Ohio is home to more than 50 million domestic birds which makes our state particularly vulnerable to an outbreak,” said Director Daniels.

“Thankfully, the disease never took hold here. I believe this is a justification of the steps taken by our producers and exhibitors to mitigate the risk of an outbreak.”

The avian flu is an extremely contagious virus that primarily affects domestic poultry and is likely spread by wild, migrating birds.

The USDA first confirmed the virus in the U.S. beginning in late 2014. While there were no confirmed cases of the disease in Ohio, throughout the spring and summer of 2015 more than 48 million birds nationally were affected.

On Nov. 18, the World Organization for Animal Health (known as the OIE) issued its final report on the deadly avian flu outbreaks which declared that the outbreaks in all affected states are now final, closed, and resolved. This now makes the

United States free of avian influenza for the time being.

One of the ways avian influenza spreads is by direct contact with contaminated materials coming from other infected birds. Exhibitions, auctions and swap meets where birds are comingling pose a high risk of unintentionally spreading disease. While the intention is to allow bird exhibitions to be held next year, an outbreak in Ohio or nearby states may require the reinstatement or even an extension of the ban.

“I would like to extend a sincere thank you to OSU Extension and the youth exhibitors for their understanding and to their advisors for turning this unfortunate outbreak into an important educational moment,” said Daniels.

“As I travelled around the state this summer, I was overwhelmed with the maturity and understanding of the disappointed but supportive young people I spoke with who were unable to bring their poultry projects to the fair. It’s a real testament to the strength and importance our 4H and FFA programs in Ohio.”

Ohio is the second largest egg producer in the country and home to 28 million laying chickens, 12 million broilers, 8.5 million pullets and 2 million turkeys. Ohio’s egg, chicken and turkey farms create more than 14,600 jobs and contribute $2.3 billion to the state’s economy.

What I learned from 2015 There are some stories that become routine, but then there are the ones that stay with you and you hope touched your readers as much as they did you.

For me one of those stories in 2015 was covering the Tiverton Institute in March. I have to admit I admire the folks who have kept this 113 year tradition going, but I don’t always look forward to driving out there in the gloom of early spring for the event. Pooch Blackson changed that for me this year. The Coshocton icon jumped in to fill time by serenading guest speaker Emily Adams from the OSU Extension Coshocton County Office. I’d be surprised if he didn’t have everyone in the crowd smiling. I know he put a smile on my face and reminded me to think outside the box and that an event can always offer something new and exciting, even after more than 100 years.

Another event that warmed my heart in 2015 was the Coshocton County Chamber of Commerce Annual Dinner, specifically when Barb Emmons was named the 2015 Coshoctonian of the year.

She started hospice in Coshocton in 1986 and retired in December 2013 from what is now known as Health Services of Coshocton County and Hospice after 28 years of service. However, Emmons will be the first to tell you that everything she accomplished during her career wasn’t done alone. It was done by working with others.

“I don’t work well as an individual,” Emmons said at the April 2015 event. “I’m more of a team worker and I’ve never worked with a better team than the group at Health Services of Coshocton.”

By working together we can achieve more, whether at our job or through volunteering in the community.

Another story that showed community spirit was my October update on Barney the duck who had a pretty rough 2014.

The Muscovy Duck used to reside at Lake Park, but in early September 2014 he was found with three arrows in him and his companion Betty was later found deceased. Kathy Milligan decided to take Barney under her wing and pay for his care out of her own pocket and through the help of donations from the community.

Barney is now living the good life with Milligan and even has a duck friend named Willie to hang out with. This is just one of many examples when someone in our community stepped up to help.

Coshocton native and country singer Casee Allen also stepped up to help charities. In November he performed two concerts at the Triple Locks Theater, charged only $5 for tickets and then donated all proceeds to three charities.

He also was designating part of the money to send at least one wrestler from the elementary, junior high and high school levels to a camp.

2015 was an influential year

When looking back over my 2015, so many events I attended and people I talked with have made my year one that I will never forget. As I was looking over my planner, deciding on what to write about, so many moments jumped out at me as good memories of 2015. While I enjoy covering all events, these are the ones that stick out in my mind as ones that make coming to work each day worth it.

Anyone who knows me will tell you that I am a terrible dancer. But the night I spent at the Blue Ridge Grange doing a feature article on the Boots n’ Buckles dance organization was one I will never forget. Jay and Donna Simmons, instructors of the dancing group of about 30 active members, welcomed me with open arms and asked me if I would like to dance with them. Of course I said yes, knowing that if someone had a cell phone, I’d

BY JOSIE SELLERS At the concert Allen said he wanted to give back to Coshocton because without the support of his fans here, he wouldn’t have had the confidence to try Nashville.

Another person that tirelessly gives back to the community is Tom Roahrig and his family.

The Roahrigs run Higher Hopes Therapeutic Riding Center. I volunteered there a handful of times when I first moved back to Coshocton in 2011. I’ve always wanted to go back, but haven’t had the chance. That doesn’t matter to Tom and Peggy Roahrig though. No matter how much or how little I’ve been able to give, they’ve always made me feel like I was part of the Higher Hopes family. Their kindness has made an impact on a lot of other people’s lives too. The Higher Hopes 15th annual auction on Dec. 5 wasn’t just a fundraiser. It also was a time to celebrate Tom and Peggy Roahrig’s 45th wedding anniversary and the card presented to them was filled with messages from their friends and family.

These are just a few of the stories that made an impact on me in 2015. If I can take anything away from them it would be to always look for the story behind the story and never forget where you’ve come from or the people who helped you get there because we can accomplish more as a team.

JOSIE@COSHOCTONCOUNTYBEACON.COM

BY BETH SCOTT be the next huge embarrassment on YouTube or Facebook. But I got up in front of everyone anyway and tried my best, and ended up having the most fun I have had in a long time. That night reminded me that no matter what life throws at you, you need to cut loose and have some fun once in a while.

Later that week, I had the esteemed privilege of talking with Ron and Pat Beck who were celebrating 56 years of marriage. I will never forget their story of how they met and how their love has grown through the years. They end each day by telling one another that they love each other and giving each other a good night kiss. After their article was published, they both came into the office and gave me a hand-carved angel that they had made just for me. I was moved to tears by their gift and gave them each a hug. The couple reminded me to not only do something nice for someone whenever you can, but to celebrate the love you have with your spouse and your loved ones each and every day.

With a healthy two year old daughter at home and another little girl set to make her world debut in early March of next year, maybe the story that touched me the most was the story of a child who was born at 24 weeks gestational. I talked with her grandmother who showed me pictures and videos of her defying the odds and, although she has her struggles, she is a typical toddler. After given only a 39 percent chance to live, she is a true inspiration. Her story taught me to give thanks for my beautiful two year old daughter, and I think I went home that night and gave her an extra-long hug.

I would be remiss if I didn’t mention Chautauqua. I think every year this event comes to Coshocton, I enjoy it more and more. Everything from the kids’ workshops at the library, the adult workshops at COTC, to the much-anticipated nightly performances, this event is guaranteed to be entertaining, and you might even learn something new!

Veterans of Christmas Past

This is the story of a Veteran of Christmas’ past.

Not any Veteran, but an American Veteran. Red, white, and blue, clear through.

This Veteran started out like all of us. He was brought into this world by loving parents He walked the streets of his hometown, proud to be from his city and state. As he grew up he loved learning, especially math and history.

A place called Vietnam had escalated. He felt obligated to do his part. So, he joined the service, the service of his country, he joined the fight for freedom, against communism.

He saw and did many things during his tour of NAM! He saw the worst of man and he best.

He was on patrol one day, only had 25 days to go on over a year tour. All hell broke loose as the bullets from the ambush ripped through, several men were killed outright, many were wounded as they took cover.

Our Veteran, a rookie no more, was hit, but not seriously. But his best friend was seriously wounded that day. They got to say a few words as he tried desperately to save his life, but couldn’t.

He recovered from his physical wounds. But he had a hard time with the emotional part of his war.

He went on to marry, more than once. An unfortunate, sad, but true fact for many vets.

He and his wife had three beautiful children.

He was there to watch the wonder of their births before his eyes.

He was successful in every venture that he tried. They weren’t rich, but they were happy.

Their kids did well in school. All three excelled in the classroom and athletics. With guidance, love and being there for them. Their priorities were kept straight.

CONTRIBUTED TO THE BEACON BY JERRY HAYWOOD

But all through the years the vet was haunted by a question all Veterans that live through war ask themselves: “Why did I live?”, “And my best friend die!”

My answer is this. I believe there is a plan or a blueprint for our lives when we’re born. Some call it destiny.

Now is probably the time to let those who are reading this know who I am.

You see I know this Veteran so well, because I am the best friend he tried to save. I never had a brother, he was mine.

WestRock 401k Recipients

But I’m not really the ghost of Christmas past, but I prefer the “Spirit of America”, you see I’ve been his “Guardian Angel” all these years.

I didn’t get to live my life like my best friend, I was only 18 when I left this earth, my buddy was 20.

But remember this, I could’ve been a Revoluntionary War Vet at Valley Forge, or two brothers at odds at Gettysburg or Belleau Woods, Iwo Jima, or Normandy, the Chosin Reservoir, Khe Sanh, or the Ashua Valley, Afghanistan, or Iraq, anywhere in the world that America has fought for freedom.

My buddy has always honored me flying the stars and stripes, marching in parades, teaching respect and honor to his children.

In many ways I am still alive. The Veterans honor me, so I did not die in vain.

America must never forget the ones that didn’t come home.

I said earlier that I was a guardian angel.

And the great thing is: This is America: You can choose to believe or not believe. You have: “Freedom of choice!”

This story is not about scrooge and the Christmas ghosts. This is the story of the United States of America and the sacrifices that have been made.

The “Spirits” of America, all 239 years of it.

And for you, Veterans of all branches of the service, from all wars who still feel guilt.

Don’t------honor me on Memorial Day and Veterans Day and all through the years by not forgetting our sacrifices: “Some gave all and all gave some!”

My Christmas wish to America: To live each day to the best of your abilities.

Everyone is born with a gift. Use that gift to better America. Always remember, freedom isn’t free!

Some day you’ll have the answers to life’s toughest questions!

& Happy New Year

Sincerely,

www.coshoctonbeacontoday.com

From our family to your family, please accept our heartfelt wish for a very Merry Christmas and a happy and healthy New Year. We are once again grateful for the support of this community. Your confidence allows us to provide Coshocton County with a locally owned, positive publication.

We are blessed by and indebted to the hundreds of local businesses and organizations that support us with their advertising and marketing dollars and to this community for wholly embracing the positive vision of The Coshocton County Beacon by being faithful readers each and every week. We know that our focus on publishing positive content in print and digital formats runs counter to what many media moguls claim cannot be done. We continue to do it thanks to all of you.

As we wrap up 2015, our community has much to be thankful for and a few things to work on. Several roads that have been reasons for complaint during the past few years are now smooth thanks to a serious paving effort. The County Road 12 resurfacing project – what can one say except – “Great job!”

Our hearts ache for all those that are out of work with the closing of the WestRock plant. The community has responded in a positive way and many of those workers have already found new jobs or are in the midst of potential job opportunities. We know that the impact will linger but together we will overcome this obstacle just like always.

There are just too many people that have an iron will and never cease working to help our community grow, prosper and maintain the quality of life that exists in Coshocton County that it just cannot be any other way. To them we say thank you.

The Good Fortune Advertising team appreciates your confidence and patronage throughout this past year. Our mission is to continue providing this community with messages of optimism and hope throughout 2016 and beyond. Your words of support and notes of encouragement for Coshocton County’s only locally owned newspaper are always appreciated. Thank you.

Memories

DECEMBER 28TH, 1955 The class of 1915 held its 40th annual reunion at Robson’s restaurant. This 48-member class was the first to graduate from Central High. The class managed a flower fund, and after dinner a business meeting was held conducted by the group’s secretary, Mrs. Payne, to elect officers.

These officers were Mr. Lyons, president; Mrs. Payne, secretary and associates Mrs. Goodwin and Mrs. Leech. Since graduating, the group included doctors, lawyers, bankers, and many more professions. One member, Arabella Gault was a missionary doctor in China. A far cry from their days spent saving money for a class trip to Canada. A memorial was included for Gay Fisher Gallimore and J. Eldon Wangen.

DECEMBER 26TH, 1965 A western style square dance had been planned for New Year’s Eve at the Warsaw high school gymnasium to begin at 9 p.m. The joint Warsaw, Coshocton and West Lafayette event was hosted by the Gingham and Swing’em club of Coshocton. A warm supper and midnight activities followed the dance. All western style dance couples were invited to attend.

DECEMBER 28TH, 1975 Work on the Aqueduct Bridge had resumed after a brief delay. The previous week saw the installation of beams, which were among delayed materials that support the flooring of the bridge. The Lake Park Leadership and Benton Bridge Company were hopeful that construction would be finished in six weeks; however the water level of the Walhonding River may be the deciding factor. The aqueduct bridge, as were most early bridges in the county, was built using funds subscribed for that purpose. Historically this was done due to the county lacking public funds shortly after it was organized in 1811. In the same public interest people now come forth with the funds, so that people going to Lake Park can trek the routes used by mules and canal boats until 63 years ago. The plans for the project included a bike path and an underpass where US36 bisects the old town path.

DECEMBER 27TH, 1985 The second phase of improvements to the outpatient area of the Coshocton County Memorial Hospital had been completed. The former emergency room had been remodeled into a new respiratory therapy department, chapel and a room devoted to the all-new GE 9000 CAT Scanner. Formerly, CAT Scans were done out of a mobile van. Hospital Administrator A.F. Cachillo said the hospital was extremely grateful for the chapel’s stained glass window donated by Mrs. W. Jennings Bland, in honor of her late husband. The total cost of the remodeling came to $120,000 all of which was contributed by private benefactors.

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

Maternal and Child Health receives grant

GRANT Coshocton County Maternal and Child Health received an early Christmas present Dec. 17 from the CareSource Foundation. Joan Alexander, community education representative presented the organization with a $5,000 grant that will help with operational expenses of the clinic. “We are very excited,” said Leane Rohr, from Maternal and Child Health. “It’s hard to find funding that helps with operational expenses because usually you have to use it (grant money) for a program.” Pictured from left are: Alexander, Rohr, Darcy Brickles, billing/front desk clerk, and Steve Lonsinger, health commissioner.

What really is a Mother to me?

She is a never ending friend, someone to follow to the end.

Light on dark days, someone who never bends her ways.

Joy in times of sorrow, she carries peace in every tomorrow.

My leaning post, my walking cane.

Her loving voice and gentle hand removes every ache and pain.

My strength in times of weakness, courage in times of fear.

My praying friend!

She dries my burning tears, and restores my faith, and listens with all ears.

A teacher who never stops teaching.

A woman who shares every heartache and burden as tho it were her own.

My listener; My helping hand!

Someone who God has set on earth to always stand.

She’s all I have said and much more I can’t explain.

She reigns within my heart, and there she shall always stay.

Her children and grandchildren were the very joy of her life.

A continuation of her life.

Your Family

“In a way, I hope I’m contributing something to the young people who take that canal ride,” he said. “The community has been very nice to me.

This is just a way to repay and participate in the community.”

Although a lot of residents know Near from the canal boat, he has been involved with many other community activities including extensive involvement in his church, Grace United Methodist Church. Faith in God is a part of Near’s life and he still ends every day by reading a chapter in the Bible.

“I have a responsibility as far as the church is concerned,” he said. “I wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for the guy upstairs. When the church asked me to do something, I never had to think about whether or not I’d do it. I always just did it.”

Locally, Near was the past treasurer at Grace UMC, served on many committees, taught both children and adult Sunday School, was a youth fellowship advisor, and taught new member classes. He was also a lay leader for five years and served as a delegate at the United Methodist annual conference for many years.

Near also served at district level for Mt. Vernon and Three Rivers District as lay leader for five years, Board of Ordained Ministry for four years, and Board of Laity East Ohio Conference for five years. His last job was chairman of the District Superintendency committee for the Three Rivers District.

“Any time you can do something for someone in need, that’s what we’re here for,” he said. “We’re not born to be self-centered.

We’re supposed to be outgoing. I guess I got that from my dad. We never had much money, but if someone needed $5, he’d give it to them if he had it.”

Near’s wife, Nita, whom he married in 1954, said that Fred’s upbringing is what makes him such a unique person.

“He grew up in a Christian home and that’s what makes him so different,” she said. “Tom Roahrig (whom Fred knows through the canal boat) said that he cares more about people than things. He’s never sarcastic, always positive.”

All seniors are welcome: bring a friend!

BY BETH SCOTT Fred is also a 60-year member of the Lafayette Lodge of Zanesville and a 32 degree member of Scottish Rite Valley of Cambridge. He has also served as the chairman of Yandata District of the Boy Scouts and has taught and continues to teach God and Country and God and Me classes.

His passion for helping others has led him to volunteer for Juvenile Court and the Coshocton Drug and Alcohol Council for 10 years. Through those programs, he also worked two years with CORC, an organization set up to teach job skills to young people.

Both Fred and Nita served 18 years as Hospice volunteers and just resigned this year.

“We loved our years with Hospice,” said Nita. “It meets a need in you to know that you are helping someone else.”

Fred is also a member of Friends of the Park and is a park volunteer. Other past memberships include the Red Cross Board, Chairman of the Board at United Way, clerk of City Council, served on the zoning board, and many levy committees. Some people may remember Fred from Novelty Advertising where he retired after working there for 19 years. He also worked at Coshocton National Bank for five years and City Loan and Savings Company for 19 years.

“It’s been rewarding to me and I just hope I touched somebody in the activities I worked in,” said Fred.

Fred and Nita have been married 61 years and were high school sweethearts after meeting their junior year. They are both Ohio State University graduates and have two sons, four grandchildren, and two great-grandchildren.

In closing, Nita had this to say about her husband’s life.

“He quietly goes about his business of being a friend to all he meets.”

COSHOCTON – Anyone who has taken a canal boat ride over the last 17 years at Lake Park probably remembers the boat captain with a smiling face who never turns down an opportunity to help another person in need. Fred Near is a people person, and nothing gives him greater joy than interacting with people and lending a helping hand to those in need.

“All we hear today is how bad people are,” said Near. “I have had the privilege over the years to get in contact with some of the finest people out there, whether they’re from our county or out of the state. It makes me feel really well when I meet people like that. We have a phobia today that there are more bad people than good people, and that’s just not right.”

The 84-year-old Coshocton resident has lived in the area for 49 years and enjoys giving back to the community. He especially enjoys meeting the fourth grade students who ride the canal boat each year as part of their educational curriculum.

COSHOCTON – City council members, Mayor Steve Mercer and Service Director Jerry Stenner were all impresses with the presentation Our Town Coshocton gave at the Dec. 14 Coshocton City Council meeting.

“I always believed this group would be the vehicle (for revitalizing downtown and our business district),” Mercer said after the presentation. “You are a group with a lot of fresh faces and now that you have your structure in place let’s do it and get together.”

Our Town Coshocton’s revitalization plan was developed by Poggemeyer Design Group and includes four sections: Design, promotion, economic restructuring and organizational development.

The design part of the plan took 18 months, but is now complete. During this phase Poggemeyer analyzed data collected from various meetings with members of the community and surveys and used this information to help them figure out what physical updates or changes need to be made to the downtown area / business district.

The promotions aspect of the plan included branding, building a website and coming up with the right message to send at the right time to the community. It also included planning such events as Denim & Diamonds, the Christmas parade and First Fridays.

“Our vision is to bring people from outside of the community to our downtown,” said Melissa Leist, an Our Town Coshocton board member.

“Westerville has a Fourth Friday (event) that also started small, but now 10,000 people attend it.”

The economic restructuring aspect of the plan focus on finding out what we have here, what we need and how to get more.

The organizational development phase will focus on developing the board and its roles and recruiting members.

“First and foremost we need city and county approval for the plan,” Leist said. “To be considered for some grants we have to show we have cooperation and support. We’d like to work as a community. It’s not our group, but our town working to revitalize it.”

Several towns in Ohio already have taken the same approach to revitalization and seen their plan come to life.

Wellington started its project in 2000 and now has done $5.4 million in public and private improvements and Amherst now has close to $7 million reinvested in its downtown. Port Clinton also is currently working with Poggemeyer and Lauren Falcone, a professional planner and grant writer with the company. She informed City Council that she is working with Port Clinton to help get grants for projects such as replacing sewer and water lines from the 1920s, extending sidewalks for outdoor dining and improving streetscapes.

“There are so many different funding sources you can tap,” Falcone said. “You never want to see a plan just sit on a shelf. Now that we have

TOY CHEST The Coshocton County Fire Department passed out the toys collected from the community to local families in need on Friday, Dec. 18 and Saturday, Dec. 19 in the youth building at the fairgrounds. The fire department helped 626 local kids through their Toy Chest program. The program guarantees one toy to each child, but because of community support this year, each child received six toys. The Toy Chest was started by the Coshocton Jaycees and taken over by the fire department once the Jaycees disbanded. There was also a table set up with stuffed animals and other smaller toys where parents were welcome to pick out three stuffed animals and two additional toys for their kids.

The research and the articles I wrote on the court house could not have been possible without Irene Miller whose dedication to this county landmark is unyielding.

Pooch invited me over to his Galley and told me stories of growing up in Coshocton and being in the 7UP business, playing Santa at all the Christmas functions, and the year that Santa arrived at the wrong house! Thank you for sharing your memories, Pooch. You are definitely an icon of Coshocton, and you more than deserved the honor of gracing the front of Ohio Magazine!

In closing, I look forward to another amazing year in 2016 with the upcoming birth of another daughter, and being able to hear the stories of the people of Coshocton County.

COTC grad receives first associate of technical studies degree NEWARK - A few years ago, Dylan Daniels was floundering. The 22-year-old from Zanesville had taken college classes while in high school, then took business courses at one college, then switched colleges and majors to study music, before transferring yet again. He was working at a pre-school, teaching vocal lessons, and pursuing a business venture with his brother, opening and operating an events center. He had not completed a college degree and was not finding his career pathway. Daniels was beginning to think that finishing a degree was not in his cards. That’s when he learned about the Associate of Technical Studies (ATS) degree at Central Ohio Technical College.

“It was hard for me to believe it was possible to finish my associate degree and use the classes that I had taken in the past at other colleges,” said Daniels.

Seeing is believing. Daniels participates in commencement Dec. 18, graduating as the first student to earn an ATS degree from COTC. He was one of 191 graduates at the autumn commencement ceremony. Daniels’ will proudly receive his diploma and an ATS degree in music and business. ATS degrees are awarded for successful completion of a planned program of study designed to respond to the need for specialized technical education. The program must have an area of concentration which is equivalent to at least 30 semester credit hours in technical studies and have a clearly identifiable career objective. Additionally, the ATS allows students to apply life experience and prior coursework deemed to be college level to an individualized degree program.

“It means a lot to get this degree,” said Daniels. “Just to be on the same professional level as others in the workforce, and to say that I have an education from a reputable college such as COTC is wonderful.

am now planning to get a bachelor’s degree in education.”

Daniels believes bringing music into the special education classroom could be a meaningful experience for the students; therefore, he wants to use the music portion of his ATS degree, combined with a future bachelor’s degree in education to work with special education students. He will utilize the business piece of the ATS degree to continue operating his events center and production company.

“I know that I will personally share with everyone who has gotten stuck in a rut somewhere and has not finished a program that they can finish it here,” said Daniels. “It is necessary to get that degree. I’m fortunate that I came across this opportunity at COTC that made it easy for me to connect the dots. I didn’t realize I was going to be the first graduate. It’s cool. I’m excited to be an advocate for the program.”

Central Ohio Technical College is a fully accredited, public college dedicated to providing high-quality, accessible programs of technical education in response to current and emerging employment needs, as well as encouraging the professional development of students, staff, faculty and administrators to assist them in achieving their maximum potential. COTC is the only technical college in Ohio operating four full-service campus locations: Newark, Coshocton, Knox and Pataskala.

NEWARK - Ohio Department of Higher Education Chancellor John Carey and Senior Vice Chancellor Gary Cates visited Central Ohio Technical College (COTC) in Newark on Monday to talk with President Bonnie L. Coe, Ph.D., Vice President of Business and Finance David Brillhart and Vice President of Academic Affairs Lauri White. The main topic of discussion was college affordability and efficiency. Carey wanted to learn what COTC is doing to make higher education affordable for students.

A task force established by Ohio Governor John Kasich recently released an affordability and efficiency report making recommendations on ways in which state-sponsored institutions of higher education, including four-year universities and two-year community colleges, can be more efficient, offering an education of equal or higher quality while at the same time decreasing costs.

COTC shares its Newark campus with The Ohio State University at Newark. The two institutions have a very successful cost-shared relationship. Carey wanted to learn more about how the model works.

“I’m impressed and proud of the partnership COTC has with Ohio State Newark,” said Carey.

“It’s successful and efficient. I would like to find out more about it and share that information with other co-located campuses around the state.”

“It is a solid model,” said Coe. “We share

“It is my honor to present the highest and most prestigious award our college can bestow to Robby and Jodie Robinson,” said Coe. Robby Robinson made a short speech when accepting the award.

“This doesn’t happen to me often, but I am speechless,” he said. “I had a wonderful time when I was working with COTC, and we are so appreciative of this honor.”

The Robinsons were given an engraved, commemorative clock to mark the occasion. A donation of $1,000 will be made toward student scholarships in their honor, and their names will be placed on a Legends of Loyalty plaque that hangs prominently in the COTC Office of the President.

Youth attend conference

TRIP The Sacred Heart Youth Ministry and five adults attended the National Catholic Youth Conference in Indianapolis, Ind. For the three days the group was there, they would start the day off at Lucas Oil Stadium for two hours of music and prayer.

They then continued the day at the Indianapolis Convention Center for classes and service projects. More than 23,000 youths attended and the ending Mass was concelebrated with 18 bishops, and 250 priests. The parish and Sacred Heart helped with financial support.

The group also had a movie night at the elementary school on Thursday, Dec. 17 and watched “The Polar Express.”

Santa Claus, also known as Dennis Cabot, came afterward and gave each child a jingle bell with help from his two elves, Lori Cabot and Kadin Belt.

COTC honors alumni at holiday reception NEWARK - Central Ohio Technical College (COTC) bestowed awards on two of its alumni at the annual COTC Alumni Council Holiday Reception held Dec. 2 at the Newark campus.

Licking County residents Jan Tomlinson and Timothy J. Young were selected for honors presented by COTC President Bonnie L. Coe, Ph.D. and COTC Alumni Council President Jerry Billman.

The Outstanding Alumni Award recognizes Central Ohio Technical College alumni who have demonstrated personal or professional achievement that brings honor and distinction to the college as well as individual attainment and contributions for the betterment of the community.

The 2015 Outstanding Alumni Award recipient Timothy J. Young has been the chief executive officer and president of Licking/Knox Goodwill Industries, Inc. since 2011. Prior to this position he was the assistant executive director and has been employed by the company for over seven years. At Goodwill, Young is accountable for a multi-million dollar budget, seven vice presidents and a staff of over 350 individuals.

Previously, he worked in the real estate business where he received many sales and recognition awards including Realtor-Salesperson of the Year from the Licking County Board of Realtors in 1990. His leadership accomplishments are numerous.

“He truly has had an impact in central Ohio and especially Licking County,” said Judge Michael Higgins, who nominated Young.

Also nominating Young for the award were Robert H. McGaughy, chair of the Licking/ Knox Goodwill board and Jack Crockford, past president of the same board.

“He cares deeply about the many individuals with disabilities who are served by Goodwill, and his every thought and action has those special people foremost in his mind,” said McGaughy.

“He is the type of leader who wants the right thing to happen for the right reason and with little regard to who gets the credit.”

Young received his Associate of Applied Business in Business Management Technology from COTC in 1990.

Established in 2009, the Transitions Alumni Award recognizes COTC alumni faculty and staff who have made the transition from student to partner in career development, making a difference in the lives of current or future students.

2015 Transitions Alumni Award recipient Jan Tomlinson has been the assistant to the president at COTC since 2004 and has worked at the college since 2003. Described as dedicated to customer service, she directs the operations of the office and the daily schedule.

“Her commitment to the college is the direct result of her passion for the community and she aggressively seeks opportunities to link the two,” said Teri Holder, COTC executive vice president for extended campuses and Gateway. Raising her family in Heath, Tomlinson has also been a dedicated volunteer in the Heath School district, specifically with the athletic boosters. She is

committed to volunteerism with her church, where she is an elder and trustee, as well as with the Salvation Army.

Tomlinson was nominated for the award

by Vicki Maple, director of the Workforce Development Innovation Center (WDIC) at COTC. “Jan’s organizational skills are remarkable, her control of detail is notable, and her ability to balance personal and professional responsibilities is extraordinary,” said Maple.

“The genuine sense of interest she takes in others is inspiring, and perhaps most admirable is her display of integrity and character with the most earnest intentions for helping others.”

Tomlinson received an Associate of Applied Business in Business Management Technology from COTC in 2012.

“We are proud of our alumni and their professional achievements, personal attainment and dedication to the community,” says Matt Kelly, director of development for COTC. “We created the Alumni Program to serve as the principal link between the college and its alumni, and we encourage all COTC alumni to participate.”

For additional information regarding the Alumni awards or the Alumni Program, or to update your contact information with the college, contact Laura Walsh at 740-364-9514 or e-mail her at lwalsh@cotc.edu. Information on past winners is available through the Alumni link on the COTC website at cotc.edu.

“It’s a nice event for the community and a good way for the elderly to get out and see each other,” Schwab said. “My mom has Alzheimer’s and is at the nursing center, but I make sure she gets to this every year so she can enjoy dinner and a show and be with people her age. A lot of schools don’t do things like this for the elderly.”

Stoffer believes the senior citizens dinner was started sometime in the 1980s.

“We are a small community and kind of like one big family with these people being the backbone of it,” he said.

Both Stoffer and Student Council Advisor Julie Feldner were very appreciative of the businesses that helped make the event possible.

Door prize donations came from Home Loan Savings Bank, A&D Auto, Pearl Valley Cheese, Auer Ace Hardware, Scheetz Tree Farm, Inc. and student council members. The meal was provided by: Home Loan Savings Bank, A&D Auto, Wen-Mar Farms, Jones Metal, Coshocton County Board of Realtors, ALR Insurance, JJT Motors Inc., and Truck Sales.

COSHOCTON – The Coshocton County Commissioners agreed to a slight increase in the budget for the county’s apiary inspector at their Dec. 16 meeting.

“We are not required to have someone to inspect bee hives in the county, but we’ve always felt it was important because we realize the value of bees to agriculture,” said Commissioner Gary Fischer.

The commissioners also were informed

by Clerk Mary Beck that Heather Walker had contacted her about getting the court house decorated for Christmas in 2016.

“I explained to her that the commissioners are pretty particular about that and she would have to present a plan as to how it would be done and how it would be paid for,” Beck said. “I also told her that you would want a company to do it and have an estimate of the cost and what would be put where.”

Commissioner Dane Shryock said he saw several posts on Facebook where people were discussing the holiday decorations on Guernsey and Licking counties court houses. He was happy to see that they also understood that these things are not done by the government but by through committees and donations.

She also informed them that it recently came to her knowledge that counties building jails or justice centers are required to form committees

Students give back

GIVING BACK On Dec. 14, the seventh through 12th grade students and teachers at Coshocton Christian School took donations from a clothing drive the school held Dec. 4-11, to Haven of Rest Ministries in Akron. The students received a tour of the mission, and sang Christmas songs to the residents during their lunchtime. This was a very rewarding and humbling experience for the students. Haven of Rest Ministries is a homeless shelter that assists men, women, and children with shelter, food, and clothing. It also provides training and networking opportunities.

COSHOCTON – The Coshocton County Sheriff’s Office is happy to announce that on Dec. 9, the Coshocton County Commissioners voted unanimously to fulfill the remaining need for new Tasers. The sheriff’s office is extremely proud of the continued commitment and support from the commissioners to the safety of the officers and community.

These funds are in addition to the generous private donations that totaled more than $15,000 from the Skelton family and other members of the community.

This extremely generous gift will allow the office to add new Tasers to its fleet and replace those that have been necessarily removed from service, giving officers the vital equipment needed to not only protect themselves, but also the community.

GROWING BEARDS TO SPREAD HOLIDAY CHEER About 23 members of the Coshocton County Sheriff’s Office helped spread holiday cheer to the community and grew facial hair to support the Salvation Army’s Christmas Castle project. They approached Sheriff Tim Rogers with a power point presentation on raising money for a charitable cause with the stipulation that they be allowed to grow beards. Employees are typically not allowed to grow any facial hair except trimmed moustaches. Together, the 23 men, and other contributions made by female staff, raised $4,000. Each staff member had to donate at least $100 to the Christmas Castle project to grow a beard. “It was something outside the norm and helped boost morale,” said Rogers. “And it was something that had a purpose of buying clothes for those in need in the community.” All employees must be clean-shaven by March 1.
