Council organizes with two new members RYAN BERRY

MANAGING EDITOR editor@earlybirdpaper.com

GREENVILLE – A new year means a new council for the City of Greenville. On Jan. 5, two new council members, Dori Howdieshell and Steve Willman, took their seats with the five other council members. In addition to the two new members, council includes John Schmidt, Clarence Godwin, Tracy Tryon, Leon Rogers and Todd Oliver. John Burkett serves as president of council. With a new council comes new assignments and appointments for council members. One of the first matters of business was to elect a president pro tem to serve when the president is unable to preside over a meeting. Council unanimously elected Tryon to that position. Council also appointed members and representatives to the following committees: Community Improvement Corporation – Godwin and Oliver Community Action Partnership – Oliver Council on Aging Board – Howdieshell Main Street Greenville Board – Willman Darke County Visitors Bureau – Tryon Architectural Review Board – Schmidt Volunteer Firefighters Dependent Fund – Godwin and Howdieshell Sister City Relationship – Tryon In other business, council learned the reconstruction project at East Main and Ohio Streets is proceeding. The administration opened bids last month and decided to award the project to

Brumbaugh Construction. The city estimated the cost for the project at $1.5 million. However, Brumbaugh Construction came back with a bid of $1.15 million on the main reconstruction project and two alternates. The first alternate would include the installation of sidewalks along the north side of East Main from Virginia Ave. to the Speedway. Sidewalks from Virginia to Ohio Street is included in the main project. The cost for this alternate is $47,866. The second alternate extends sidewalks on the south side of from Circle Drive to Orchard Drive at a cost of $81,643. Sidewalks from Circle Drive to Ohio Street are included in the main project. Safety Service Director Curt Garrison explained the cost for this alternate is higher because there are more driveways to navigate. The project will be paid for through a $600,000 grant from Ohio Public Works and a $600,000+ interest free loan to be paid back over the next 30 years. The city was required to pay $240,000 out of pocket, which has already been reached through some of the work that has been done in that area. Council could reject both alternates, which would drive the cost of the project down. Although most council members expressed an interest in going forward with the alternates, council will hold a special meeting on Jan. 12 to discuss the project and the possibility of installing special lighting in the area. Garrison will have legislation prepared for council at its next regular meeting on Jan. 19, 7:30 p.m.

Tax issues cause delay in re-opening of downtown cinema CLINTON RANDALL

STAFF WRITER crandall@earlybirdpaper.com

GREENVILLE – More than a year past the anticipated re-opening of the Wayne Cinemas in downtown Greenville, the hopeful owners are still battling tax issues that have put previous plans on ice. In October 2014, The Early Bird published an article which included the excitement of the soon to be new owners – Luke and Brandy Winterrowd. The Greenville couple then had hopes of re-opening the theater within a few months, definitely before the end of the 2014 year. Since then, the Winterrowds have run into several roadblocks that have stopped everything, but has not detoured them from staying positive and working towards their ultimate goal… officially opening the theater as their own. Currently, the biggest hurdle to overcome is a personal tax lien on the property stemming from still the current owner –

Alan Teicher. According to the Winterrowds, all corporate and company ties to the building have been settled with Teicher and their attorney has stepped in to help work out this final issue. “We are still being delayed by circumstances out of our control,” Luke Winterrowd told The Early Bird. “The theater will be open in 2016, but a opening day is not scheduled at this time. The community

will be notified once something is set and work can begin on the renovation.” The Winterrowd’s remain under contract to purchase the property once the tax issue has been resolved. They assure that the plans they had in 2014 will move forward when the work is able to get underway. “We did not want to lead the community astray,” Winterrowd added. “We want to thank the commu-

New Director sees job as leveraging county strengths BOB ROBINSON

ASSOCIATE EDITOR brobinson@earlybirdpaper.com

GREENVILLE – With Darke County having already gotten six “Best of Ohio” awards, Darke County Visitors Bureau Executive Director Matt Staugler acknowledges the county’s attractions are well-established… “Our job is to leverage them to the activities and draw people in.” In order to do that, he and his Board have two projects they plan to promote in 2016. “We plan to set up a ‘Historical Driving Tour’,” he said. He noted the signing of the first Treaty of GreeneVille and Anthony Wayne, Tecumseh Point, Annie Oakley, Bear’s Mill and more. “We will be distributing a brochure that will focus on these points of history,” he added. Visitors can pick and choose what they want to see. The Visitors Bureau also plans to inaugurate the “Darke County Whiskey, Wine & Ale Trail” in 2016. “This has become a popular theme,” Staugler said. “We have three wineries in Darke County, Mercer has two breweries and Miami County has the distillery… we are the focal point.” He noted The Winery at Versailles being one of the

county’s “Best of Ohio,” but that people may not know about the other two: A.R. Winery in Arcanum and Kennedy Vineyard in New Madison. In Mercer County is the Barnstorm Brewing Co. in Coldwater and Moeller Brew Barn in Maria Stein. Indian Creek Distillery is in New Carlisle. “Tours like this are really becoming popular,” he said. “We’ll put them together for visitors… day trips, overnight… visitors will have the option to pick and choose.” Both new projects will be in the upcoming Darke County Visitor’s Guide. The Historical Driving Tour brochure will be distributed at the Garst Gathering, Darke County Fair and elsewhere. “We have a lot to be proud of here in the county,” Staugler said. “Six ‘Best of Ohio’ awards… the exciting thing is these awards were in competition against counties with 500 thousand, a million populations… Franklin (Columbus), Hamilton (Cincinnati), Cuyahoga (Cleveland)… Montgomery (Dayton).” The Best Historical Museum is Garst Museum, Best County Fair is The Great Darke County Fair, Best Winery is The Winery at Versailles, Best Summer

Matt Staugler, Executive Director, Darke County Visitors Bureau

Festival is Gathering at Garst, Best Main Street is Main Street Greenville and (even though there was no category) The Old Arcana won Best French Toast. Other items on Staugler’s agenda include working with Main Street Greenville’s Amber Garrett on the possibility of developing a retail space in the Welcome Center. “We’ll offer locally produced crafts… things you can get here and nowhere else. “We want to make the Welcome Center a source of pride in the county… if you need anything, go to the Welcome Center.” The Center currently has a showcase for paintings by local artists. “Our artists measure up to any you can find anywhere else; we simply want to offer them another showcase

for their work.” Other than the Welcome Center, the Visitor’s Bureau and Main Street Greenville have totally different focuses, but their efforts complement each other. “What’s good for Main Street is good for us… what’s good for us is good for Main Street,” Staugler said. The new Visitor’s Bureau director acknowledged he’s only experienced “half a year” in the county, but also thankful for the support and the time he did arrive. “I came in at a really busy time,” he said, noting it was just in time for Gathering at Garst and the Darke County Fair. “But my board is great to work with, and it was a great way for me to get acclimated.”

He said the other two were trying to “jump” him. The other two, one of whom is a juvenile, told the officer Farren had robbed them and they were trying to get their money back. A Darke County deputy arrived and detained Farren while the officer questioned the other two. Shortly after that dispatch received a call from a witness stating they observed Farren place something in the trash can near West Fourth Street. Farren admitted he had put a bag of weed in the trash can. Officers removed a clear bag of a green leafy vegetation that had the odor and appearance of marijuana. Farren was placed in handcuffs for officer safety while the incident was being sorted out. He told the officer he also had another bag of marijuana in his front coat pocket. Police found that along with a short red straw which Farren said he used to snort pills. It was later determined Farren had an active warrant out of Darke County Municipal Court for failure to appear on a drug paraphernalia charge. Police determined the theft victim was Merlin Markland, 337 W. Main St. The witness said he observed Farren take several items from the residence while the victim was sleeping. Markland said he was missing several items, including a wallet with about $150 in it. Witnesses said Farren had returned to the residence, denied taking anything, then took off running. The witnesses chased after him. At first Farren denied having any of the stolen items, then later said he was “just holding onto the

items so that the juvenile did not get into trouble.” He told police he had $154 in cash in his sock; the other items he put in the laundry basket in the victim’s residence. The items were found where Farren said they would be. Farren was transported to Darke County jail on the warrant; a complete report is being sent to the prosecutor’s office for charges. DOMESTIC VIOLENCE On January 4 police were dispatched regarding a domestic violence complaint. It was reported the victim had been in a verbal argument with Aaron Bronner. The victim had contacted her mother, alleging Bronner had broken her hand in a physical alteration; the mother then contacted police. When police arrived the victim was in the stairwell to the residence. She was holding her hand/wrist in a manner indicating it was injured. It appeared to be swollen; she said Bronner had kicked her there causing her pain. Bronner admitted there was an argument that turned physical when he became frustrated over her screaming at him about being out the night before consuming alcoholic beverages. He admitted to kicking her in the hand/wrist. Bronner was arrested for domestic violence and transported to Darke County jail. The victim refused to write out a statement or receive medical attention. SHOPLIFTING On January 4 police were dispatched to Walmart, 1501 Wagner Ave., regarding a theft. The suspect, Julie Hensley, admitted to concealing candy, medicine and puzzle books in her purse and exiting the store without paying for them. When asked why she had stolen the merchandise, she said she was “having a problem with stealing and needs help.” She was cited for theft and trespassed from the store. DRUGS On December 30 police observed a vehicle traveling north on North Broadway. A routine license check indicated the registered owner’s operator’s license was suspended. A traffic stop was initiated. Upon contact with the defendant the officer noted the odor of marijuana coming from the vehicle. The driver (unnamed in the report) admitted her license was suspended and when questioned, said she smoked marijuana earlier in the day but was no longer high. The defendant also admitted to having a “gram” of marijuana along with a “bowl” used to smoke it. The clear bag tested positive for marijuana/THC and burnt residue in the pipe had the odor of marijuana. The defendant’s license was currently under two open drug offense suspensions. She was cited for driving under suspension and drug abuse.

FIRE INVESTIGATION On December 26 police were dispatched to 500-B Wayne Ave. for a garage fire. The garage was fully involved; it actually belonged to the property at 419 Harrison Ave. The residence appeared to be empty and had a building permit on the front window. The fire department arrived and took control of the fire; the officer then went back on patrol in the area to see if anyone may have seen what happened. At 412 Harrison Ave. he located another arson scene. The fire department said the garage at 419 Harrison was a loss and needed an arson report completed. No additional information.

Curtain time for the show is 8 p.m. “Fans of pop, rock, doo-

ON YOUR MIND

Resolving to stop black-out beer Ohio’s growing craft beer industry has likely been a subject of your Christmas JIM BUCHY discussions. OHIO REPRESENTATIVE You may have even sampled many of Ohio’s fine products. We should continue to promote that growth but we must be mindful of the dangers of beer over 12% alcohol by volume (ABV). Beer over 12% ABV, which is Ohio’s current limit will have a very different impact on the human brain and body than our average light beer or craft beers currently on the market. We must work to ensure the growing industry remains a positive force on Ohio’s economy. My New Year’s Resolution is to stop the movement for easy access to drugs and highly intoxicating substances. When you think about the impacts of beer over 12% ABV, it is very easy to understand why some people call this type of alcohol black-out beer. Some legislators want to legalize black-out beer so that consumers can have more options. Unfortunately, this is a move that could jeopardize the future of this very important industry. To understand why this is a problem you have to consider the impacts of ABV on a person’s body when they drink. Alcohol by Volume is the percentage of alcohol per specific amount of an alcoholic beverage, directly measured by the level of pure ethanol present in 100 milliliters of a beverage at 20 degrees Celsius (or 68 degrees Fahrenheit). To make this simple, the higher the ABV the more similar this product is to the ethanol in our regular gasoline used to fill up our cars. As the level increases the impact on our bodies multiplies. Legislators interested in increasing the ABV limit in Ohio are considering an increase to 21% ABV. This would be nearly double our

current limit which has provided consumers many different beer options. This increase would allow for a 12 oz. beer that, according to the Cleveland Clinic Blood Alcohol Content Calculator, could possibly leave a normal 150 lb person unable to safely and legally operate a motor vehicle if consumed over three hours. To provide some perspective, that same person could have drank up to four average light beers in that same amount of time and they may be considered safe and legal to drive. Alcohol consumption should remain a decision left to responsible adults over the age of 21. Allowing a beer with this level of potency on the market raises concerns because of the potential for an unsuspecting individual to consume large quantities of this type of beer without proper notice of the potential consequences. Like with any alcohol product discretion and safety should be paramount. Responsible legislative measures to improve the craft beer industry should remain a focus. We have taken a number of these steps in the past several years, including the creation of the A-1c permit that allows for a smaller brewer to compete outside of the normal constrains of Ohio’s major brewers. In addition, we have legalized entertainment districts to allow for the open consumption of beer in certain designated areas and the ability to consume alcoholic beverages on the popular pedal wagons found in certain parts of Ohio. I have made it a resolution this new year to stop the movement for easy access to drugs and highly intoxicating substances. You can learn more about my new year’s resolution and join the effort by visiting tinyurl. com/buchystandingstrong Please give me your opinion on this topic and others in the news this month by completing an online survey at tinyurl.com/buchyjanuary2016

ODSA and CAP offer heating assistance GREENVILLE – As temperatures begin to fall, the Ohio Development Services Agency and Community Action Partnership want to remind Ohioans that heating assistance is available to eligible households through the Home Energy Assistance Program (HEAP) Winter Crisis Program. Through March 31, 2016, the HEAP Winter Crisis Program will provide assistance to eligible households that are threatened with disconnection, have been disconnected or have less than a 25 percent supply of bulk fuel. “We are working with Community Action Partnership to make sure Ohioans stay warm this winter,” said David Goodman, director of the Ohio Development Services Agency. In 2014, more than 565 families in Darke County were assisted through the HEAP Winter Crisis Program. Statewide, more than 130,000 Ohioans were helped by the program. Qualifying for HEAP is

dependent upon the size of the household and the total gross household income for either the past three or 12 months. For the Winter Crisis Program the gross income of eligible households must be at or below 175 percent of the federal poverty guidelines. For a family of four the annual income must be at or below $42,437.50. Individuals interested in receiving Winter Crisis assistance must have a faceto-face interview at Community Action Partnership. Ohioans also can call the toll-free hotline at (800) 282-0880, Monday through Friday (hearing impaired customers may dial (800) 686-1557 for assistance) or visit http://development. ohio.gov/is/is_heapwinter. htm for more information about the Winter Crisis Program. For more information about energy assistance programs, call (800) 2820880 or visit www.energyhelp.ohio.gov.

Reaching goals by reframing resolutions GREENVILLE – Each year, millions of Americans turn the calendar to the New Year and make resolutions. But without breaking these goals down into smaller milestones, it can be easy to lose momentum. In fact, a 2014 YMCA survey found that less than a quarter of respondents kept their resolutions throughout the year. Many (71 percent) tried, but stated that they fell short of their goals, while 40 percent confessed that gave up within the first few months, even weeks, of the New Year. This year, the YMCA of Darke County encourages community members to give their New Year’s resolutions a boost by creating smaller, more manageable goals that can lead to long-term success. “The YMCA is committed to helping individuals develop goals that will lead to optimal outcomes and then provides support along the wellness journey,” said YMCA of Darke County CEO Sam Casalano. “An obstacle many individuals face is a lack of support and resources. The YMCA provides wellness staff for members on a one-on-one basis, offering a comprehensive new member experience including an orientation process and complimentary coaching. Staff is also available for ongoing support and encouragement. Members become part of a second family as they are assisted in becoming connected to others with similar aspirations,” noted Casalano. “Losing weight is too broad a goal,” explained Cole De’Nise, Membership/Versailles Director. “Reframe your big resolution into

something achievable.” For example, instead of making a resolution to ‘lose weight,’ resolve to incorporate fruits and vegetables into at least two meals a day. Reframing your goals in a positive way can also help you stick to them. You may want to limit your screen time in 2016, but that can be more manageable if you replace the time with something positive like volun-

teering or setting special time aside for family. “Rather than thinking about what you’re losing, think about what you’re gaining. This can make a resolution feel more positive, and therefore more achievable,” said De’Nise. Even though you may experience some missteps throughout the day—or even the week—that doesn’t mean you have to give up.

CHURCH & SOCIAL

VCC will celebrate 198th anniversary VERSAILLES – On a wintry Sunday morning, January 18, 1818 … some settlers in the settlement of Jacksonville, Ohio met in the home of William Hole and held the first worship service of the Jacksonville Christian Church. In the early years of our nation, the great Cane Ridge Revival occurred in Kentucky. This revival spread like wildfire throughout the frontier by circuit riders and lay preachers. Samuel Kyle was converted in Kentucky and came north – as did many settlers of this period – into the Miami County. Some settlers followed the Stillwater River north and founded a tiny

settlement called Jacksonville (now Versailles). Samuel Kyle and others began the Jacksonville Christian Church. In 1820 William Hole generously gave several acres of land for the church and cemetery purposes. In 1822 a log church was erected on the highest point of the area of what is now known as Greenlawn Cemetery. In 1856 the growth of the church justified a larger building. A brick structure was erected on a lot at the corner of West & Ward Streets in Versailles. In 1883 the congregation purchased the lot adjoining the church and another new

brick structure was built. This facility was dedicated on June 8, 1884. By 1921 it was determined that a new church building was necessitated. The old building was torn down and a new building was begun in the same location at West & Ward Streets. On November 22, 1922 the new church was dedicated ‘to the glory of God’. In 1931 the Christian Church and the Congregational Church merged to form the Congregational Christian Church. Then in 1957, the Congregational Christian Church and the Evangelical & Reformed Church joined to create the United Church of Christ. In 2005, the local church unanimously and prayerfully left the United Church of Christ and returned to their original roots as an independent Christian church. In 2013-2014 VCC com-

pleted a major renovation of the existing facility which included upgrading of the electric, installation of central heat/ac, renovation of the auditorium including new media equipment and sound system, new offices, new classrooms with media, a counseling center, new nursery and handicapped accessible restrooms. On Jan. 17, VCC will celebrate her anniversary with services of praise and thanksgiving at 9 and 10:30 a.m. The anniversary message by Pastor Dennis J. Wheeler is “Why I Love the Church!” Following the worship services there will be a church-wide anniversary luncheon served in the gym. VCC is located at 105 W. Ward St., Versailles. If you would like additional information, call the VCC office at 526-4194 or visit www. versaillescc.com.

Will the Presidential Election Affect Investment Outlook? We’re just a few weeks away from the first caucuses and primaries, so presidential election season is in full swing. As a voter, you may be keenly interested in the election process. But as an investor, should you be concerned? If you take a look back, you might be somewhat encouraged over the prospects of the financial markets this year. In the last 12 presidential election years, the Dow Jones Industrial Average has been up nine times and down just three. So, election years must be good for the financial markets, right? Not necessarily. In every year, the markets are influenced by a variety of factors: interest rates, inflation, corporate profits, geopolitical events, economic growth, even the weather. And it’s safe to say that 2016 will be no different. At this early stage of the year, one could say that some of these factors, such as continued low interest rates and a reasonably strong economy, might bode well for investors. But there’s a lot of 2016 ahead of us – and it’s notoriously difficult for anybody, even so-called experts, to accurately predict the market’s performance over a relatively short time, such as a year. Still, the market’s history of pretty good results in presidential election years may not be entirely random. For one thing, the White House is never the only office being contested; elections are also held for every congressional district and many seats in the Senate. Consequently, during these election years, campaigning often takes precedence over legislating. This legislative inactivity tends to be welcomed by the financial markets, which generally

dislike surprises, big changes and new directions. However, you can’t really count on past trends to provide a certain roadmap for the year ahead, in terms of the performance of the financial markets. As mentioned above, many factors influence this performance, and at this early stage in the year, we just can’t predict which of these factors will take precedence. So, instead of worrying about things you can’t control, focus on those that you can. For starters, review your investment mix. Does it still properly reflect your goals, risk tolerance and time horizon? Over time, even if you haven’t made many changes to your portfolio, it can become “unbalanced.” For example, if you own some stocks that have increased greatly in value over the years, these stocks may now be taking up a larger percentage of your holdings than you had intended, bringing with them a higher degree of risk. Consequently, you might want to consider selling off some of these stocks and using the proceeds to fill in other gaps in your portfolio. On the other hand, if you think your mix of investments is not providing you with the returns you need to help make progress toward your long-term objectives, you may need to add some vehicles that can provide you with more growth potential. After all, it’s 2016 now, so whatever your age, you are another year closer to retirement. Will this year look like past presidential election years, as far as good returns from the stock market? No one can say for sure. But if you “vote” for smart investment moves, you won’t be sorry.

Registration opens for 10th annual Tour de Donut CLINTON RANDALL

Woodland kindergarten and first grade students enjoyed pelting Principal Jody Harter and Assistant Principal Jennifer Statzer with their “snowballs,” a right earned by reading books over the Christmas break. (Bob Robinson photo)

Student snowball fight BOB ROBINSON

ASSOCIATE EDITOR brobinson@earlybirdpaper.com

GREENVILLE – “I went to every class before the break,” said Woodland Heights Principal Jody Harter. “I told them please don’t read any books over the holiday… I don’t want to get hit with your snowballs.” Harter grinned. “You saw how that worked. Reverse psychology… they read all the books they could.” And the students got their reward. Three sets of classes arrived in the gym on Thursday morning; three more on Friday morning. They had a surprise waiting for them. They got to throw their snowballs at Harter and Assistant Principal Jennifer Statzer… what they didn’t know was they would also be targets. “One rule I didn’t tell you,” Statzer told the students. “We get to pick them up and throw them right back at you!” There was a loud reaction from the kids,

but they weren’t deterred. For ten full minutes the air was filled with paper snowballs flying back and forth. Harter said the challenge was to read books over the break. “They got to make one ‘snowball’ for every book they read or that was read to them. They put the name of the book on a piece of paper, then crumpled it up into a snowball.” Statzer picked up several of them. One had the title “I See,” another “We Like School,” a third… “How Do Dinosaurs Say Merry Christmas?” Sometimes the student signed his or her name to the snowball. Students who didn’t read any books over the semester had to sit and watch their classmates have fun. There weren’t many, but there were a few. They got a reprieve, however. “If you didn’t read before you get another chance,” Harter told them. “We will do this again at the end of the month, so get ready to read!”

Looking at outdoors past BOB ROBINSON

GREENVILLE – “Greenville man has taken his hobby of collecting old fishing lures and other outdoor memorabilia to a new level.” Outdoor columnist Jim Morris was enthusiastic about a new book by Greenville resident Tom Petkewitz. Morris adds Petkewitz will say he collects old fishing lures and other outdoor memorabilia, “but with every old fishing or hunting license he has uncovered there is a story.” The author is enthusiastic about his book, “From Outdoors Past, A Journey Through Time and Select Territory,” noting response has been positive, leading to 75 sales in the first week alone. “I’ve had nothing but favorable reactions from those who first get the book,” he said. Following a successful book-signing event in Dayton, Petkewitz now has one scheduled from noon to 2 p.m. Feb. 6 at the Canteen Shop LLC in the Palace on South Broadway in downtown Greenville. He also has one scheduled at Big Bucks Firearms and Sporting Goods, and Niekamps Farm and Flea Market, Feb. 13 from 1 to 3 p.m. Books are already available for purchase at both locations. One of the unique things about the book is the terri-

tory covered… Southwest Ohio and Southeast Indiana. “Places where Petkewitz visits as he roams the area looking for his next rare find,” Morris noted in his review. The author says another unique thing is the people in his book… “It’s kind of like a game,” he said. “We put a lot of names – prominent and ordinary – in the book. There’s an elected official… but at the time (the photo was taken) he was a 10year-old kid.” According to publisher Whitefish Press, the book covers Randolph County in Indiana, as well as Darke County and Auglaize, Mercer, Miami, Shelby, Preble and Montgomery Counties. Among the stories are Orville Wright’s connection with Dayton manufactured fishing lures and rods and an $8,500 lure made in New Paris… then there’s the “Sweitzer” rifle made in Greenville by an artisan, after whom Sweitzer Street was named. Following his upcoming book signing at the Canteen Shop, Petkewitz will be attending the sports and club shows that will be starting in February and March. He will be holding book signing events there as well. In addition to the Canteen Shop, books are currently available at Rich Edwards Auction Center east of Greenville, Amazon.com and Whitefishpress.com.

GREENVILLE – Darke County Parks invites everyone to pull up a chair, enjoy a nice cup of tea, and discover the lore and uses of our woodland trees. On Jan. 16, 10 a.m., Chief Naturalist Robb Clifford will present a program about natural teas called “Tea, Trees, and Evergreen Leaves” and invites everyone to bring their favorite tea mug along to partake. Participants will sample a variety of teas and discuss

the plants and medicinal qualities of each. Attendees are asked to dress for the weather because there may be a short hike to point out the species of interest. Preregistration is required for this free event. For questions about this or any other Darke County Parks program or to register for Tea, Trees, and Evergreen Leaves, call 548-0165 or stop by the Nature Center west of Greenville on St. Rt. 502 W.

ARCANUM – Registration is now open for the 10th Tour de Donut on Sept. 10 in downtown Arcanum. Growing from 106 participants to over 2000 has been a sweet ride for Ohio’s largest one day bicycle event. The Tour de Donut is a unique bicycle event in which participants’ ability to eat doughnuts is just as important as their ability to ride their bicycle. The event is a timed bicycle event in which riders visit doughnut stops during the course and eat doughnuts. For each doughnut the rider eats during the ride (and keeps down) they have five minutes deducted from their ride time. New routes will center near Lewisburg with doughnut stops in Gordon, Lewisburg and at Kennedy Vineyards. The Glazer, a special doughnut stop with a unique doughnut that is worth a 10-minute time

deduction, will return in this year with a competition between donut shops taking place to become the coveted special. The fifth annual Donut Mini will return with one doughnut stop on a 15 mile course. The mini will offer its own awards just like the longer distance while offering an alternative to those who are concerned about the full route allowing younger riders and families to take part in the fun. The tenth annual Tour de Donut 30 mile distance will offer two doughnut stops with stops in Lewisburg and Gordon and is for those looking for a longer ride. The third annual Double D challenge is a 64 mile ride for experienced cyclist and offers three doughnut stops and will include hills and a stop at Kennedy Winery. The largest free kids event in Darke County will take place at 8 a.m. on George Street. All kids will receive a free T-shirt, finisher medal and all the doughnuts and milk they care to eat thanks to Orthopedic Associates of South-

west Ohio. Prizes are awarded in age group classes including the coveted golden Tour de Donut championship belts for the best adjusted “donut time” in addition to most doughnuts eaten and fastest bike only time. Participants do not have to be an experienced cyclist to take part in this event. While the event is technically a race, very few consider it a serious competition; remember this is all in fun.

2016 SSSF scholarship applications available GREENVILLE – Senior Scribes Scholarship Fund scholarship applications are now available for Darke County students intending to pursue their college education in a communications-related field this fall.

BRADFORD – John Scalzi arrived in Ohio in 2001 and shortly thereafter started work on what would be his first published novel, Old Man’s War. Since then, Scalzi has become a New York Times Bestselling author, won science fiction’s prestigious Hugo Award in three separate categories (including the Best Novel award for Redshirts, in 2013) and has seen his work published in two dozen languages around the world, winning awards in Germany, Japan and Israel. Scalzi said, “This is pretty cool. I wrote Old Man’s War, my first published novel, here in Bradford, and every novel since. So to get recognition from the

state of Ohio for my work is one of the nicest things that’s happened in my career.” His Old Man’s War series of novels is currently under option for television at Syfy, with Academy Award nominated director Wolfgang Petersen (The Perfect Storm) attached. In addition to writing novels, Scalzi has written numerous non-fiction books on topics ranging from finance to film. He’s also written the video game Midnight Star for the Industrial Toys game studio, and was the creative consultant for the television series Stargate Universe.

Greenville vs. Arcanum draws packed house BY GAYLEN BLOSSER SPORTS WRITER gblosser@earlybirdpaper.com GREENVILLE – The Green Wave boys basketball team defeated the Arcanum Trojans 64-46 Saturday. “We knew they were going to play hard,” said Greenville Coach Michael Bashore. “Marcus (Arcanum Coach Marcus Bixler) is one of the best defensive coaches around so they were well prepared for us. His kids play extremely hard.” Arcanum held a 17-14 lead after one period getting five points each from Cole Burrell and Austin Baker while Arron Rich was putting 8 points in the book for the Wave. “The guys came out and responded tonight,” said Arcanum Coach Marcus Bixler. “I couldn’t be more proud of the effort and the intensity we put in.” Greenville would use the opening minutes of the second quarter to get its first lead of the night and go on to outscore the visitor 16-4 and take a 30-21 lead at the break. Isaiah Gable would

lead the Wave with nine second-quarter points including two three-pointers. Period No. 3 had the teams playing even with Greenville adding 17 points to the board while Arcanum was getting eight points from 6’1” sophomore Andrew Baker to go along with 16 Trojans points. “I thought the key for us tonight was two kids… Trae Wood and Braden Russel,” said Bashore. “Two kids that don’t do a lot offensively but they buy into what we are doing defensively. We really struggled in that first quarter defensively and those kids came in when we had some foul trouble.” The fourth quarter score stood at 55-45 before Greenville would close-out the game’s score on a 9-1 run to win by an 18 point margin. Arcanum boxes out well… they do all the little things,” said Bashore. “That is what Marcus (Bixler) does so well as a coach. He teaches those kind of things and he is great at what he does but when Isaiah is 6’6” that’s a matchup problem for anybody and Clay being 6’3”. When you don’t have a lot of height we’re hard to guard but I tip my hat to them. They played hard. They made shots early on. We knew they were going to do that.” Gable led all scorers in the game with 27 points including 5-9 beyond the arc and 4-4 from the line while Andrew Baker was leading the Trojans with 15 points; 5 baskets and 5-5 at the charity stripe. Greenville shot a torrid 93 percent, 13-14 from the line and Arcanum made 8-11 throws good for 73 percent on the night.

ARCANUM – The Arcanum Lady Trojans’ experience and depth made the difference in a 64-21 CCC Thursday night game. “I thought our girls played really hard,” said Arcanum coach Matt Grote. “We knew Coach Moore would have them ready. We knew they would come out and play hard even though they are short right now.” FM came into the game with seven players in uniform and by the end of the game an injury had the Jets down to six players. The Lady Jets used Kinsey Goins’ 2-2 at the line and an Allyson Masterson layup to grab a 4-0 lead at 6:29 in the first. A Brittany Kinney basket would get Arcanum on

the board at 6:04 for the start of a 10-0 Trojans run to take a 14-6 lead after one. Arcanum opened second quarter play with 11 unanswered points to lead 27-6 and extend its lead to 34-10 at the break. The third quarter had the home team adding 16 point to the board while holding FM to four points to lead 50-14 going to the final period of play. “We focus on doing things right… little things like boxing out… not forcing bad shots,” said Grote. “Overall we did a good job.” The Lady Jets had their best offensive quarter of the night scoring 7 points while Arcanum was adding 14 points for a final 6421 Lady Trojans win. “This year is about learning,” said FM Coach Abbey Moore. “We don’t give up.

Upward Sports kicks-off new season of faith & fundamentals

BY CLINTON RANDALL STAFF WRITER crandall@earlybirdpaper.com DARKE COUNTY – The 2015-16 Darke County Upward Sports season officially kicked-off Saturday, Jan. 2 at the Pleasant View Missionary Church and the former Gettysburg Elementary School building. Nearly 400 children are actively registered for the new season of basketball and cheerleading. The program runs for 12 weeks starting with team practices in December and is open to kids in kindergarten through eight grade. In addition to playing basketball and cheer, at halftime of every game a testimony is shared and each team holds a star ceremony following every game which recognizes each child by presenting a star for offense, defense, effort and Christ-like sportsmanship that the kids proudly display on their uniform. The kids are only required to give up two hours a week to participate, one hour for practice and one for games

that are held each Saturday. “The coaches have an Upward app that they use for substitutions during the games,” said league director Barbara Hicks. “This ensures all children get to play the same amount of time.” The Upward Sports program was founded nationally in 1995. It is the world’s largest Christian youth sports provider with over 2,000 churches in 47 states. The program’s goal is to help develop each child mentally, athletically, spiritually and socially.

“We feel blessed to have the opportunity to interact with these families to provide a quality, faith based, family friendly sports program that not only teaches kids the fundamentals and skills of the game, but one that encourage positive life skills and Biblical virtues,” added Hicks. Though the program has continued success and growth in numbers each year… the need for volunteers and additional space are a constant hurdle for organizers. “With the growth of the program over the past five

years… our need for volunteers continues to be a struggle,” Hicks noted. “We are in constant need of scorekeepers, referees, concessions workers, sound and computer operators as well as clean up assistance and photographers.” Learn more about local the Upward Sports program or how you can get involved at www.pleasantviewmc.org/upward20152016-season.html.

GJHS wins rematch over Piqua BY CLINTON RANDALL STAFF WRITER crandall@earlybirdpaper.com

GREENVILLE – The Lady Wave 7th and 8th basketball teams hosted GWOC North rival Piqua Thursday afternoon at the Greenville Jr High School. After losing in overtime at Piqua on Dec. 1, 2015… the GJHS 8th graders looked forward to a rematch with the Lady Indians. Greenville came out the gate running a full-court press that caused several turnovers which the Lady Wave were able to capitalize on. The Greenville defense held Piqua to just five points for each of the first three periods of play – winning by a score of 47-23. The 7th grade team were also victorious in their game. “We started our quickest players tonight to wear them down and get ahead of them. We called it a

Lady Tigers Battle Fort Loramie BY GAYLEN BLOSSER SPORTS WRITER gblosser@earlybirdpaper.com

VERSAILLES – Two 2015 State Championship teams met Saturday on the Versailles basketball court in a highly anticipated game. “For them to come in and take control of our court kinda hurts,â€? said Versailles Coach Jacki Stonebraker. “Loramie is a great team. “It’s another game we can chalk up and say we’re getting ourselves prepared for the post season. I really felt like we competed today.â€? The Fort Loramie Lady Redskins hung on for a 4339 win over the Tigers, the ďŹ rst game for Versailles in almost three weeks while the Redskins were competing just four days earlier. “It’s tough,â€? Stonebraker said of her team’s time off. “That whole routine you get yourself in throughout the regular season and then you have time off‌ off for Christmas, New Year’s Day and just lots of breaks in there‌ too many breaks‌ no consistency of what we wanted to do.â€? The visitors held a 12-6 advantage at 4:19 in the ďŹ rst before the Tigers cut the Redskins lead to three bringing the ďŹ rst quarter to a close with Versailles trailing 14-11. A Lady Redskins trey greeted the Lady Tigers to open second period play to quickly trail 17-11. Trailing 23-19 with under two minutes in the ďŹ rst half, Versailles would get a Danielle Winner basket at 1:12 and a game tying Lauren Monnen basket with 0:08 showing only to have Loramie sink a basket with 0:00 showing sending the teams to the break with the Lady Tigers trailing 25-23. “I thought we played that play pretty well,â€? Stonebraker said of the Redskins’ last score. “We had a hand

in her face and she shot over the top of us. That’s a tough shot for her.â€? The third period was a defensive battle with the Lady Redskins holding the girls from Versailles to a low of seven points but it was the Lady Tigers’ defense holding the visitor to a meager four points giving Versailles a 30-29 advantage heading to the fourth. “Game of runs,â€? said Stonebraker. “They went on a scoring run‌ we change our defense‌ they get stuck‌ we would get a couple easy buckets here and there and really what the name of the game was‌ who was going to score the most in the paint.â€? Period No. 4 would see three lead changes before the Lady Redskins would take a ďŹ ve point lead with 1:01 showing. A baseline Kami McEldowney drive to the hoop cut Loramie’s lead to 4239 at 0:25 and prove to be the ďŹ nal points of the day for Tigers with the Lady Redskins claiming a 43-39 win. “Our goal was to run our spread-out offense, try to drive on them, create some fouls and take their posts up because everybody knows this year we’re not as big, we’re not as tall.â€? Stonebraker said. “I felt like in the ďŹ rst half we did that.â€?

UNION CITY – The Mississinawa Valley Lady Blackhawks used backto-back opening Mikayla Stump three-pointers to jump out to an early 6-0 lead and never look back in defeating the Tri-County North Lady Panthers 5131 Monday night. “Finally,� said MV Coach John Hershey. “The last two weeks have been good practice wise. When you put in a new system and the girls have got to pick up on all that stuff it takes time. They have made the big turn.� A Kelsie Hunt freethrow and two scoring drives to the basket would give the home team an 11-6 advantage after one. The Lady Hawks took advantage of eight Hunt points, Leslie Dirksen’s four and a Kylie Willis trey to add 17 second-quarter points to the board taking a 28-12 lead at the break. “If you look at the last game we played and the

game we played tonight it’s like night and day defensively,â€? said Hershey. “That was a big emphasis these last two weeks. We have had trouble putting the ball in the hole. If we’re going to win ballgames we’re going to have to play some defense.â€? MV would extend its lead to 41-20 on the backs of two freshman outscoring the visitors 13-8 in the period No. 3 getting ďŹ ve points from freshman Bailey Johnson and freshman Olivia Murphy’s four points. The Panthers 5’7â€? sophomore Cassi Stinson accounted for nine of the team’s 11 fourth quarter points while Hunt was knocking down six in the ďŹ nal period for the Hawks. “She’s our workhorse,â€? said Hershey of his 5’8â€? junior Kelsie Hunt. “She’s our board getter both sides offensively and defensively.

Lady Wave JV comeback stuns Butler BY GAYLEN BLOSSER SPORTS WRITER gblosser@earlybirdpaper.com

GREENVILLE – The Lady Wave JV pulled off an electrifying late comeback win over the Butler Aviators outscoring the visitors 17-3 in the ďŹ nal period. “It came down to guts,â€? said Greenville Coach Laura Swigart. “Our kids played with a lot of guts. They wanted the ballgame and they wanted to win. I haven’t seen them play with that much ďŹ re all year.â€? The Greenville girls took a 12-2 lead after one period of play only to have Butler turn the tables in periods two and three outscoring the Greenville 15-4 in the second including a 13-0 run to take a 1716 halftime lead. “We came out with a really big lead the ďŹ rst quarter,â€? said Swigart. “They came back and was up one going into the half.â€? “We came out and scored the ďŹ rst play of the third quarter and I thought, ok this is going to be our game and then we went down by nine. I said we just have to keep ďŹ ghting and it was one possession at a time‌ one basket at a time.â€? Period No. 3 would see the Wave’s Lani Shilt hit a basket at 6:56 giving Greenville an 18-17 lead before Butler would out-

score the Lady Wave 12-3 taking a 29-21 advantage to the ďŹ nal period of play. Greenville put on a fourth quarter clinic at both ends of the court holding the Aviators to three points while the Wave was burning the nets for 17 points. Trailing 31-22, a Saki Nakamura steal and layup at 4:29 had the Wave down 31-24 followed by a Kelsie Ruble steal and layup at 4:16 with the Wave closing in at 26-31. “She (Nakamura) played her heart out,â€?

Swigart said. “She was deďŹ nitely a catalyst‌ she handled the ball well. She really started attacking the basket.â€? By 2:01 the Lady Wave trailed 32-30. Kelsey Weaver hit back-to-back baskets including a stickback to give Greenville a 34-32 lead with 1:17 on the clock. “I challenged them‌ if you get on the oor you need to give me a reason why you need to stay on the oor,â€? Swigart stated. “Kelsey Weaver deďŹ nitely proved why she needed to be on the oor today.â€? In the end, the Lady Wave would close out the game on a 10-0 run including 2-2 at the line

from Lani Shilt for the ďŹ nal Wave points to win 38-32 going away. “Kelsie Ruble is a sparkplug for us,â€? said Swigart. “Lani (Shilt) hit some nice baskets for us and was 4-4 at the line in the fourth.â€? Shilt led the Wave with 10 points. GREENVILLE EAGLES EVENTS

tion is open to volunteers across their entire service area. Lunch and snacks will be provided. Volunteers are needed for both patient and nonpatient needs. Patient volunteers provide companionship to patients by visiting and talking with patients or reading the newspaper to them. Patient volunteers also help with daily tasks such as running errands and picking up prescriptions. If you are interested in being a hospice volunteer, but do not wish to work directly with patients, there are many other opportunities available. Volunteers are utilized for community outreach such as working health fairs, fundraisers and they also perform clerical duties to assist the office staff. Volunteers run courier throughout all three offices and Care Center to save staff time. “If you have a special talent, we can find a spot for you,” explained Volunteer Manager Christena Subler. Professionals in the community volunteer their skills to our patients, such as one volunteer that makes home visits
