Davidson hosts annual farm forum Talks new COVID-19 relief bill, trade negotiations By Nathaniel Kubik DarkeCountyMedia.com

VERSAILLES — Congressman Warren Davidson addressed topics ranging from the most recent COVID-19 relief bill, to the impact of trade negotiations on agriculture markets at the annual Farm Forum event last Saturday morning. The event was hosted at Versailles High School by Versailles FFA students, and featured speeches from Rep. Davidson, State Rep. Kyle Koehler, Darke County Commissioner Matt Aultman, and Senior Director of State and National Policy with the Ohio Farm Bureau Federation, Jack Irvin. Davidson, a Republican representing Ohio’s 8th Congressional District, weighed in on a number of hot topics surrounding the COVID-19 debate in Washington D.C., and how it relates to local farmers and ranchers. Davidson noted that the most recent coronavirus bill, known as The American Rescue Plan, is more than likely the final round of COVID-19 relief. He informed those in attendance that around $24 billion, of $30 billion planned for ag-related relief, has been distributed. “I’ve talked to folks with row crops, and it [the relief money] translates to approximately $100 per acre, but that’s not always the case uniformly with all the different programs,” said Davidson, as he delved further into the other assistance programs. He noted that the Coronavirus Food Assistance Program (CFAP) is one of the larger programs, and there is no clear cut decision on whether the CFAP assistance counts as income. The consensus, Davidson continued, is that CFAP assistance is regarded as a top line form of revenue from a different source — making it count as income. Davidson also spoke on what he believes to be an unconstitutional, racially biased aspect of the new COVID-19 relief bill. See FORUM | 5A

Feline Friday Adoptable ‘Cool Cats’ DARKE COUNTY — “Cool cats,” both full grown and kittens, are just waiting Gray to be adopted into loving homes, and are available now at the Darke County Humane Society, located at 7053 OH-49, in Greenville. One fun “cool cat” fact is that most cats have 18 toes in total: five toes on each two front paws (including the dewclaw) and four toes on the two back paws. However, some felines may be born with genetic mutations that may give them more claws and toes. Polydactyl cats may have as many as 30 toes and claws — usually, one extra toe per paw, but sometimes, as many as three extra toes. Extra toes commonly have

claws that grow at odd angles and require frequent trimmings. Gray, a Socks three-yearold white and gray female Shorthair, is a very serious and attentive cat. Nothing escapes her notice! Socks, a one-and-a-halfyear-old “tuxedo” male Shorthair, is a friendly, sharp-dressed “cool cat” searching for his forever home. Come out to the Darke County Humane Society and meet these fabulous felines. Shelter hours are: Mon. (11 a.m. to 5 p.m.), Tues. (11 a.m. to 5 p.m.) Weds. (11 a.m. to 5 p.m.), Fri.

PALESTINE — Phylis Elaine (Bailey) Hiatt, age 80, of Palestine, Ohio, passed away peacefully at Rest Haven Nursing and Rehab Center in Greenville, Ohio, on Wednesday, March 17, 2021. She was born October 27, 1940 to Lawrence and Edna Mae (Repogle) Bailey in Greensfork, Indiana. She is survived by her husband of 60 years, Richard E. Hiatt of Palestine, whom she married December 17, 1960: Sons, Daren (Jeanelle) Hiatt of Union City, Ohio and Chris (Tonya) Hiatt of Palestine: Sister Beverly (Dan) Wilson of Palestine: Brothers James (Betty) Bailey of Sumpterville, Florida and Clif (Diane) Bailey of Williamsburg, Indiana: Grandchildren, Darick (Joanna) Hiatt of Anna, Ohio; Megan (Travis) Frame of Williamsburg, Indiana; and Jared and Ross Greenwell of Palestine. She loved her parents, and spending time with them. She made sure that Daren and Chris had many opportunities to share in that love, as they would go to grandpa and grandma’s farm on a regular basis growing up. The void that was left in their passing was filled with time spent with her own children and grandchildren. Elaine retired from Reid Hospital in Richmond, Indiana and enjoyed staying in touch

with those friends she made there. After retirement, she enjoyed sewing, and taking part in the lives of her children and grandchildren. She and Richard rarely missed an opportunity to watch Darick and Megan as they grew up. The grandkids regularly spend weekends in Palestine, enjoying Elaine’s cooking and all that grandparents have to offer. As the grandkids got older, Elaine and Richard would not miss many of the activities that the kids participated in. Dance, Sports, 4-H, and FFA kept them going all over the area. Pictures of all their activities filled the refrigerator door. Holidays and family were very important to Elaine. She tried her best to attend family reunions, and share stories of all the family past and present. She tried very hard to keep Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve, and New Year’s Day meals a tradition. She loved to sew, and shared that love with others, by helping with projects, making baby blankets and other interesting things. She will be missed beyond words. Services for Elaine are to be private. In lieu of flowers memorial contributions may be made to State of the Heart Care. Arrangements entrusted to Zechar Bailey Funeral Home, Greenville. www.zecharbailey.com.

“One of the things that isn’t really COVID-19 related that’s in this last bill that, to me is likely to be unconstitutional, is a racially biased loan forgiveness program,” Davidson said. “If you’re a non-white farmer or rancher, socially disadvantaged is what the references say, you could have your FSA or CCC loans forgiven plus 20 percent. So, 120 percent of your loan could be forgiven I think up to $2.1 million.” Davidson did, however, acknowledge that the 8th district isn’t the most diverse in the country, and encouraged those who are considered minority farmers or ranchers to take advantage of the program. He expects there will be continued challenges to this development. Davidson went on to mention the hike in estate taxes as a part of the 2017 Trump tax cuts. He noted that the Biden Administration wants to reverse the estate tax top line down to $3.5 million, and raise the taxable percentage up to 45 percent. Hopefully, Davidson said, members of Congress will fight against this tax. He stated he believes the opposition to the estate tax is bipartisan, and that many recognize the negative impact that estate taxes have on a majority of Americans. Davidson was heavily involved in trade negotiations throughout the past year, a topic on which he spoke extensively.

lifetime, the colorful, simple details of an ordinary life, well-lived, often tell the real story. Local history museums are the keepers of such cherished memories and moments, giving each generation new opportunities to appreciate the tenacity of our pioneer ancestors. After being closed for over a year due to the COVID19 pandemic, the Versailles Area Museum, now in its 12th year, reopened last Sunday for its 2021 season to the delight of many Darke County residents and visitors, with another open house planned for Sunday, April 11, from 1 to 4 p.m. Presenting its fresh, newly remodeled look, with over 20 rooms of displays and exhibits, the museum does require patrons and visitors to wear face masks and practice social distancing, with the exception of household members who may tour together. Hand sanitizer will continue to be available throughout the exhibit areas. “Even though we were closed, our donors and members were wonderful, and supported the museum, helping to cover the monthly operating expenses,” said Board Member Tom Mendenhall, who also served as a museum docent for the afternoon. “It’s home. We were sad about being closed, but felt that we should follow the governor’s suggestions for safety, especially for our older patrons, members, and volunteers. We are thrilled to be getting back to normal, and welcome visitors from all over the county and beyond!” The Versailles Area

“USMCA (United StatesMexico-Canada Agreement) on balance was a big win, we established new tariff rate quotas on dairy products in particular,” said Davidson. “We got Canada to open their markets to imports from the United States, which is big in our area for chicken and eggs.” Continuing on the topic, Davidson said that imports are no longer tied to domestic production in Canada. He said the tie was previously limiting U.S. trade ability, and also hurting the Canadian agriculture market. He and his colleagues see this switch as a positive development for both American and Canadian agriculture markets. Davidson noted that renegotiations in trade with China have benefited all, and that farmers have paid a big price throughout the process of fixing trade policies. He noted that with China in particular, the U.S. has been struggling to compete with trade, so new policies have again leveled the playing field and opened up new export avenues for farmers across the country. “Having a manufacturing background, I’m euphoric about the fact we are finally talking about trade, particularly with China, and I believe this is a positive development for our nation’s agriculture market,” Davidson said. While concluding, Davidson spoke briefly about the Payroll Protection Program (PPP) loans, and noted that many people question why loan forgiveness has been granted to businesses and farms, but not, for example, to students with significant

Museum offers patrons the experience of examining artifacts from the late 1800s and turn-of-thecentury, including print articles, photos, furniture, clothing, signage, and heirlooms. The Military Room, considered by many to be the “crown jewel” of the Museum, houses numerous artifacts and family collections from the period of the Civil War to the present, belonging to local Versailles residents and surrounding communities. Other notable exhibits include School Room, with artifacts from a rural one-room schoolhouse; Early Railroads exhibit; 1901 Great Versailles Fire Exhibit; General Store Exhibit, with a replica mercantile store and artifacts; the Versailles town hall “Calaboose” jail; as well as permanent exhibit areas for the histories of Osgood, Yorkshire, Willowdell, Brock, Frenchtown, and Webster. New exhibits this season are the completed Victorian Parlor, with period furnishings, now connected to the replica 1900s kitchen and dining area, which depicts he quaint, elegant relaxation of a Victorian parlor — every fashionable homeowner’s expectation in the late 1880s and early 1900s. Also new at the museum are the Auctioneering Exhibit and EngelkenKleinschmidt Building exhibit, which feature artifacts recently unearthed by Ben and Karen Wietholter in the basement of Swift Gilly. Several new artifacts have been added to existing displays, such as an array of band uniforms to the Music and Art Exhibit, and a display of brass steam whistles and gauges to the Train and Railroad Exhibit. One noteworthy addition to the Military

Congressman Warren Davidson (R) of Ohio’s 8th Congressional District hosted his annual Farm Forum at Versailles High School on Saturday morning.

federal loan debt. Davidson explained that Congress recognized early on that state unemployment offices were falling behind, and wouldn’t be able to catch up. He said the goal with PPP forgiveness was to keep businesses funded so they could keep as many people as possible on payroll at their respective workplaces, where employees often have benefits and other additives tied to their employment. “That program (PPP) was on balance a success for the country, and particularly in our district,” Davidson said. “In our district, we had about 9,000 loans made, and about 80 percent of those were for $150,000 or less, and it kept over 100,000 people on payroll.” Ohio State Representative Kyle Koehler represents Ohio’s 79th District, and serves as chairman of the House Agriculture and Conservation Committee. Koehler’s speech touched on a number of past and upcoming state house bills

geared toward agriculture, water quality, and food security. He also commended farmers on their willingness to step up in recent years when topics such as water quality and security came to the forefront of the public conscience. As a part of Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine’s H2Ohio plan, a $172 million initiative geared toward improving Ohio’s water quality, Koehler stated that approximately $40 million went to the Ohio Department of Agriculture. He quipped that farmers stepped up and volunteered over 1 million acres of Ohio farmland for nutrient management plans. Koehler also spoke on developments for the 2,000 acres of Ohio farmland certified to grow hemp. He said that a number of farmers have begun working hemp, but the state government is still working out the details about how to successfully promote hemp as a commodity, and as a profitable plant to cultivate.

Artifacts discovered from the basement of the Engelken-Kleinschmidt Building, located on Main Street. For over a century, the Masonic Lodge #290 occupied the upstairs, and many businesses have inhabited the rear space, including Sammet’s Department Store, A. R. Murphy Clothing Store, Garrison’s, Nancy O’s, and Swift Gilly’s.

Room is an 1850-to-1860 Percussion Rifle, made by local gunsmith Elisha Woods McCraner, who served the Mexican-American War (1846 to 1848). The Versailles Area Historical Society (VAHS), which maintains the Museum, is a 501c(3) non-profit organization devoted to the preservation of local history that is funded strictly through the generosity of its members, volunteers and donors. “Our mission is to promote awareness of the rich historical heritage that exists within the Versailles area. We love touring the elementary students every year to keep their interest in the history of this area. We have had historical speakers and programs at the museum,“ said Versailles Area Historical Society Board President, Deb Pohl. “Even if your not from any of the towns

listed, if you like history, you’ll love our displays. Each display tells a story.” Genealogist and museum member-volunteer, Diane Schrader, agrees. “We help many people who call or write to us. We give tours by appointment, for visitors from out-of-state, or visitors with special needs,” said Schrader, adding, “We welcome everyone to learn about their history.” For non-profit museums, members and volunteers are essential for keeping the spirit and vision moving forward. Due to COVID, the VAHS was unable to host any fundraisers last year, which, in previous years, have included raffles, soup on the lawn, ice cream socials, and historical dinners. When asked how people can help support the museum’s mission, Pohl encourages residents to

Darke County Commissioner and Master Farmer Matt Aultman focused the bulk of his speech on food security issues that have impacted farmers and the general public during the COVID-19 pandemic. Aultman also touched on rural broadband internet and how COVID-19 has centralized the public’s focus on many aspects of daily life that are often taken for granted. Aultman offered his insights by stating that average homes typically have only 33 days worth of food, and local grocery stores hold approximately three days worth of food to support the local population. As a county commissioner, Aultman recommended that localities begin taking a closer look at local food production, and how to become more food-secure. The final speaker, Jack Irvin, serves as the Senior Director of State and National Policy with the Ohio Farm Bureau Federation. Irvin spoke very briefly about his work for Ohio farmers in promoting policy at the state and federal levels of government. Irvin stated that food supply chain disruptions had a major impact on the agriculture and livestock industry during the pandemic. He said that during the peak weeks of 2020, almost a million fewer hogs and 250,000 fewer cows were processed as compared to previous years. For consumers, however, Irvin noted that the disruption was not widely noticed, and he credited this to the hard work of local farmers maintaining production to the best of

become more involved by volunteering and becoming VAHS members. “People can volunteer to help do many things, from cleaning the museum, setting or changing displays, to telling the history of a room when we tour the school students. Volunteering here does not mean that you are here every day — Just when you want to be or when you can. We have lost several members that contributed a lot of time to the museum over the years. We could use more help. Another way is to become a member. The monies gained from memberships all go to the museum’s upkeep and programs that we offer,” explained Pohl. “It takes a lot of money per month to keep the museum doors open. Electric, water, insurance… are all are budgeted every year towards the museum.

their ability. As it relates to trade, Irvin said he is continuing to work with other agencies and offer his insight to bolster trade that would benefit the agriculture industry. Irvin offered a positive sentiment in his final statements, saying that the country will endure through the pandemic, and that he has been incredibly proud of the resilience of the American people in working to combat and get through the coronavirus pandemic. Following this, Irvin welcomed two Versailles FFA students who recited the FFA creed and gave a short speech on combating hunger around the world. The next section was reserved for questions from the audience, in which the panelists answered questions pertaining to grain marketing, trade, the coronavirus relief bills, inflation, and general inquiry about the state of the local economy and agriculture industry. Rep. Davidson concluded the event by offering a special thanks to the Versailles FFA students for their help in setting up the event. He also noted that he is always impressed by the productivity of local farmers, and thanked them for their great work and willingness to support the community. Davidson ended by saying that he will continue to work for his constituents and put ideas forward that he believes will improve both Ohio’s 8th District and the United States as a whole.

Greenville’s Rich earns NCAA honor Earns All-Heartland Conference Honorable Mention for Bluffton By Gaylen Blosser DarkeCountyMedia.com

GREENVILLE – Aaron Rich, a 2017 Greenville Senior High School graduate earn All-Heartland Conference Honorable Mention honors playing for the Bluffton University Beavers men’s basketball team for the 2020-2021 season while bringing his four year college career to a close with a Business and Sports Management degree. “Aaron Rich, during the past four years, has been a consisten, positive rock within our program,” said Bluffton University head coach, Guy Neal. “Aaron has excelled in the classroom and on the court. Aaron has been a great example of the total package of what we want our Bluffton basketball players to be on and off the court.” “Aaron is a great young man and an outstanding basketball player, a fundamentally sound player,” said GHS Superintendent Doug Fries, a Bluffton alum and former Bluffton University basketball player. “Not only is Aaron a good basketball player but he was a good representative for the program.” Rich, a four-year starter for Bluffton University and team captain ends his career with a team 55-40 winning record over four seasons including the men’s program’s most-season wins his sophomore season. Bluffton head coach, Guy Neal just completed his 32nd season at the helm of the Beavers and has the distinction of the winningest coach in the history of the Bluffton University men’s

basketball program. “During Aaron’s four seasons with us, we have accomplished a lot of positive things and Aaron is one of the reasons why!” stated Coach Neal. “We are very proud of Aaron and what he has accomplished up here at Bluffton.” Rich was pleased to have played four years for the same coach while at Bluffton. “I really enjoyed it because I didn’t get to do that in high school,” Rich said. “It was nice to build a relationship with Coach Neal and be a part of a program that he has worked really hard to build. Just a great guy to play for and a good guy off the court too. I know I can always count on him if I ever need anything down the road.” At 6’5” playing NCAA college ball in the paint, Rich was often not as tall as the players he was going up against at both ends of the court. “Playing college ball can be tough at times but one of the main things Coach taught – you have to be tough on the court even when you are playing someone three to four inches taller than you. You just have to have the heart and the drive to outwork them and out play them.” “Aaron could help on the court in many ways,” said Fries. “He could have scored more points but he put team first and contributed to all parts of the team concept.” Rich was a member of the 2015 Green Wave GWOC Championship team his sophomore high school year, winning the

school’s first conference championship in 60 years. “Awful proud of all the things Aaron has been able to accomplish,” said former GHS basketball coach, Michael Bashore. “He is a perfect example of a kid who worked hard to get better at his game every year. He was a very valuable player for us the year we won the league as a sophomore. For as good as he has become as a basketball player he is an even better person. I’m extremely blessed to have been able to coach him for three years.” Coming off the bench as the sixth man his 2015 sophomore season, Rich had his best offensive game of the year scoring 12 points against Eaton in a Wave 76-37 win. Rich averaged 10.2 points and 6.1 rebounds his junior year for the

Wave and 15.6 points and 7.8 rebounds per game his senior year at GHS earning him an opportunity to play for the Bluffton Beavers. The 6’5” 215 pound post player took time to talk basketball at the NCAA DIII level while balancing academic studies. “I definitely would do it again,” Rich said of playing at the college level. “I would do it a different way. My first two years here were kind of rough balancing basketball and classes. I would spend a lot more time balancing the class part and the basketball because you get caught up a lot in the basketball part and sometimes it can affect your classes a little bit.” “It’s a grind but I enjoyed basketball,” added Rich. “I could have graduated early but I wanted to come back for my fourth year.” “It was definitely tougher basketball wise,” Rich said when comparing college to high school. “The competition was a lot better. It definitely went a lot faster than four years of high school.” The 2020-2021 college basketball season for Rich as with most sport programs in the past year felt the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. “COVID made that a little rough but it was a good senior year for the most part,” Rich noted. “We didn’t play quite a full schedule. We played 15 games, 12 conference

games and three nonconference games but it was still busy because we played back-to-back days. We played on weekends so it was a little different than a normal season playing on a Wednesday/Saturday – so if felt like a full season.” Following graduation, Rich plans to keep in touch with Bluffton University. “I enjoy it here and I will definitely be back,” Rich said. “Right now I help coach a little on campus. I have been helping him with recruiting – guys from our area. If they ever needed anything or want to know anything about the university I would be happy to talk to them about it – help coach Neal if they want to go there.” “The biggest thing is putting in the work in the early stages of high school,” Rich said of advice to young players. “It’s not just going to come to you. You have to put in the work and effort to get noticed by other colleges – that is the first thing and then once you get noticed you have to do things that you may not be comfortable doing like doing those extra plays, like diving on the floor, taking a charge, things like that.” “You have to get noticed in other ways than just scoring the basketball,” added Rich. “I think a lot of people don’t see that. They just see basketball as who can score the most on your team but it’s a lot more

than that. It’s a team sport and that is one thing I have really learned from being here – you have to put your brothers first and everything else second.” “Aaron could help on the court in many ways,” said Fries. “He could have scored more points but he put team first and contributed to all parts of the team concept.” When asked if we would see him coaching in the future, Rich responded, “I definitely want to coach some day. I don’t know when or where but hopefully somewhere around Greenville.” “Aaron was a great representative of Greenville and Greenville High School,” Fries stated. “He will make a good coach or athletic director. He has all the qualities and is very committed. He is always team first.” “It meant a lot having my mother’s support all these years,” Aaron said of his mother, Bonnie Rich. “This year obviously with COVID and everything she wasn’t able to come to any of the games but she was still able to watch the live stream. I probably would not have made it all four years without her support and I appreciate everything she does for me.” Contact Darke County Media Sports Editor Gaylen Blosser at gblosser@ aimmediamidwest.com or 937-5690122

Wave boys tennis on track for 2021 Lady Wave softball gets down to business By Gaylen Blosser DarkeCountyMedia.com

GREENVILLE – The Greenville Senior High School boys tennis team looks to blend youth with a sprinkling of letter winners for the 2021 season. Greenville varsity boys tennis coach, Dennis Kiser enters his 31st season at the helm fielding a team numbering 14 players – just enough to field both a full varsity and junior varsity squad with GHS just one of four MVL teams able to equal the numbers. “We have 14 this year which is almost the lowest I have ever had – it’s a low group but there are 20 junior high kids out there,” said Kiser. “At least 12 are boys so hopefully the numbers will improve starting next year – 14 is not a bad number.” Missing from the 2021 team are three outstanding GHS boys tennis players with 11 letters between them due to graduation while missing their entire senior season to COVID. Also graduating from 2021 was Victor Livesay along with Ian Laux and two exchange students; Axl Rodriguez (Mexico) and Pablo Baviera-Soler (Spain). “Victor was a four year player,” said Kiser. “Ian came out for the first time and the exchange students that came out didn’t get a chance to play.” “I am missing three awesome seniors that didn’t get a chance to play last year - Branson Leigeber, Joss Galloway and Eric Price,” Kiser noted. “They had worked so hard over the offseason and were going to be a special team last year. I miss those guys a lot but it’s time to move on with this group. We don’t have near the experience that we would have had last year but we’re working at it.” Returning letter winners include; seniors Jiahao Zhang and Heath Coomer both playing their third year of varsity. “They are our leaders,” Kiser said of his seniors. “Those two have a lot of experience.” Juniors, Jack Marchal and Andrew Abell are expected to earn their third varsity letter this season. “Jack Marchal was our first singles as a freshman and as of right now he is still first singles,” Kiser said. “He and Jiahao Zhang had a nice battle out here. Andrew Abel will probably partner with Heath Coomer at first doubles but those four have all our experience. Nobody else out here has any varsity experience at all.”

GREENVILLE – The Greenville Lady Wave softball program looks to get back on the field for the 2021 season after missing the entire 2020 season due to the Covid-19 pandemic. “A lot of neat kids competing and playing,” said veteran Lady Wave softball coach, Jarrod Newland. “We’re 25 strong for the program and two seniors. Just a bunch of young kids running around and having fun seeing what we can put together and have some fun with.” The lost 2020 Lady Wave season boasted nine veteran seniors with expectations for a trip to Akron for the OHSAA state tournament. “Twenty-twenty would have been an amazing assortment of individuals and teammates and a great thing for the City of Greenville,” Newland stated. “Obviously we are here in the pandemic and we are excited for the ’21 season. Bitter hole we don’t talk about too much and just moving forward – all we can do. Every day is a blessing and we’re moving here in the spring of ’21 with the Lady Wave softball program ready to roll.” The 2021 Lady Wave High School softball program numbers 2 seniors; Grace Shaffer and Nyesha Wright, 8 juniors, 6 sophomores and 9 freshmen looking to field both a varsity and junior varsity squad. Unlike the just completed 2020-2021 winter sport schedule with the Miami Valley League (MVL) limiting regular season play to MVL teams only, spring sports will return to a schedule including non-league teams giving

the Lady Wave softball program a 27 game regular season schedule. The Lady Wave is home four consecutive Saturdays while playing seven excellent non-conference high school programs over the four dates. “We have the normal league schedule and a lot of home Saturdays here so it should be good,” said Newland. “With everything Stebbins softball facility does throughout the summer and fall tournaments, getting people in and out and doing it the right way and maintaining the proper guideline. With everything Greenville City Schools is doing it should be a fun spring and excited to get the chance to go out and compete.” Assistant coaches Justine Shilt, John Davis, Denny Ruble and Greg Newland return to the Lady Wave coaching staff along with first year assistant coaches Alli Hill and Tom Cromwell. “We will come out and compete and have some fun – play for the name on the front,” Coach Newland concluded. “Should be good – we have a lot of good young kids.” Contact Darke County Media Sports Editor Gaylen Blosser at gblosser@ aimmediamidwest.com or 937-5690122

Three of you have to play varsity at some point and you all get your chance, but I’m looking for guys that can keep the ball in play.” Seniors Ash Williams and Logan Witwer are expected to see varsity playing time heading into the new season. “Both great kids,” said Kiser. “This is Ash Williams fourth year at tennis,” Kiser stated. “He is going to get some varsity time. He has been a great leader. I can count on him to get stuff done if I need stuff done … Ash will get it done.” Coach Kiser will be looking to two juniors to be in the mix for varsity spots on the court. “I have two juniors that are going to be pushing those guys,” said Kiser. “Grant Read will probably switch back and forth between singles and doubles. He will definitely get some varsity playing time along with Max Jordan. Max is very consistent at keeping the ball in play.” Sophomore, Mason Middlestetter, played first singles for the Green Wave junior high team as an eighth grader joins the mix looking for varsity time. “Mason has some experience but we didn’t have anything last year for him so he missed the whole year other than playing with his dad out here in the summer,” Kiser said. “He’ll get some playing time also at singles or doubles.” The program has two juniors joining for the first time, Cole Saylor and Ethan Palmer along with returning junior, Leo Williams, brother of Ash

Williams. Two freshmen, Will Gettinger and Simon Snyder round out the 2021 Wave high school boys tennis program. “I have two freshmen that are really going to be something,” said Kiser. “I am really excited about these two.” Coach Kiser believes his team as the opportunity to compete well in the Miami Valley League (MVL) while building for the future. “Troy and Tipp City are loaded,” Kiser said. “They will be competing for one and two no question. After that it’s wide open. I expect us to be fighting in there for number three. Butler and Sidney has been decent, Piqua is improving so you never know. We are going to try and be league champs but being realistic and knowing what the other teams have coming back – Troy and Tipp are pretty solid.” “There have been years where we have competed with them,” added Kiser. “This year we are going to battle hard and we will have to battle really hard if we expect a league championship but we will see – that’s why you play.” Brian Reifsnider joins the boys program as assistant high school coach while Suzie Brown moves from assistant varsity to head up the junior high boys program. “Suzie has been my assistant the last couple of years,” explained Kiser. “She was great with me but she’s really good with those young kids and Jim Koontz is helping her. They have 20 kids down there and she does a great job.” “I have been after Brian for years,” Kiser stated. “He retired from his job so now he has time to be our assistant coach.” “Great kids – going to be a fun year,” Coach Kiser concluded.

OSGOOD — Kurt Meiring from Osgood was recently awarded Eagle Scout Rank. He is a member of Maria Stein Boy Scout Troop # 97. As the highest rank conferred by the Boy Scouts USA, Eagle Scouts must acquire 21 merit badges and fulfill a special project, requiring months of planning, and which must be completed before the 18th birthday. Of the 2.2 million Boy Scouts in the US today, approximately 6 percent will achieve this special recognition each year. Meiring decided to do his Eagle Scout project to benefit the Osgood Community Park. As the Eagle project is supposed to fill a need in a community, Meiring noticed that families were dragging a picnic table by the playground area when their children were on the equipment, in order to sit and to attend to a younger sibling. When the shelter houses were rented, they would drag the picnic tables back and forth. Meiring decided to put benches around the playground, and worked with the Darke County Solid Waste Management to attain benches made of all plastic caps and Provided photo lids that would normally be Osgood Eagle Scout Kurt Meiring stands beside one of the four newly installed plastic benches at Osgood disposed in a landfill.

After collecting the plastics, Meiring checked every cap and lid to make sure it was clean, paperless and on the acceptable list. Collecting over 800 pounds over a span of nine months, he delivered the materials to the Darke County Solid Waste to be made into four six-foot park benches to be placed around the playground equipment in the park. Each bench is made from 200 pounds of plastics at a cost $250 to fabricate, and will be maintenancefree for 50 years. In 2019, the Darke County Solid Waste made a trip to Evansville, Ind., to Green Tree Plastics, taking two semi loads of plastic caps and lids. Once the benches were manufactured, they had to go to the Darke County Fair to be used during fair week. Eventually, the benches were delivered to Osgood. Meiring dug the holes, made forms, and poured stone and concrete for the 4-foot by 7-foot slabs. He waited until summer of 2020 to attach the benches and replant the grass. In addition to the collection and labor, Meiring also needed to raise over $1,300 for the project to help fund the benches and materials. He worked with his family members and other Boy Scouts at weddings, doing task such as cutting cake, serving wedding tables, washing dishes, and cleaning off tables, as well as accepting donations from local businesses to finish his project.

Home canning is a relatively simple process, but many variables can affect your finished product. There are so many resources with unsafe information that it is important to make sure you are following the most recent safe home canning guidelines. One guideline for home canning foods safely is using a pressure canner to process low-acid foods, such as vegetables, meat, poultry, and fish.

Fixing the Fish Oil Flop Famous doctor’s breakthrough unlocks the hidden brain-boosting power of Omega-3, by sourcing it from the most unlikely place on earth

I

f you’ve tried fish oil to boost your memory in the past without any luck, you’re not alone. Millions of Americans suffer the same fate. And for the first time in decades, we finally know why. According to some of the top medical establishments in the world, the memory-boosting ingredient in all fish oil is steadily declining worldwide. “Omega-3 fish oils have two nutrients, EPA and DHA,” explains anti-aging expert and bestselling author, Dr. Al Sears. “They’re both important, but DHA is crucial to your brain health.” Research has shown our paleo ancestors ate DHArich foods to evolve their brains into the bigger, smarter brains we know today. “Without DHA, our brains would shrink,” says Dr. Sears. “Sadly, over the last few years, DHA is all but disappearing from nearly every fish product you buy. And it’s causing a surge in America’s memory crisis.” “Ensuring your brain gets healthy levels of DHA is the secret to maintaining a powerful memory and rapid brain function your entire life,” explains Dr. Sears.

WHY SO MUCH EXCITEMENT In a groundbreaking animal study from the University of Alberta, researchers finally uncovered why DHA is able to improve memory and brain function so significantly. Animals given a diet rich in DHA saw a 29% boost in their hippocampus — the part of the brain responsible for learning and memory. The same was found in human studies, too. A study conducted by Stanford University analyzed the brains of over 1,100 women. And according to brain scans, DHA grew a significantly bigger hippocampus. Conversely, after analyzing more than 1,500 seniors, the Framingham study found that those whose brains were deficient in DHA also had significantly smaller brains — a characteristic of accelerated aging and a weakened memory. Lastly, a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study from Columbia found something remarkable. 485 senior men and women were put through a series of rigorous mental and visual tests. They were asked to remember arbitrary shapes and images that made the task so challenging, some compared it to an IQ test. Remarkably, after 6 months those who took DHA had a significant edge in learning, memory, and brain function over those who didn’t supplement with DHA.

“There are many ways this compound can improve your memory and help reduce senior moments,” says Dr. Al Sears. “Unfortunately, 9 in 10 Americans are starved of this memory-booster.”

Sure Shot encompasses two seperate, sapcious builidings on Fifth Street, just off of Broadway, in Greenville. As the weather permits, a number of outdoor seating locations will be used as well.

Plummeting levels of ‘brain fuel’ in fish oil could be the result of distasteful supplement practices. 85% OF AMERICANS STARVED OF THIS NUTRIENT Harvard University found that Americans may be severely deficient in DHA. According to a major nationwide report, the reason is simple. 85% of Americans don’t eat enough seafood. “It doesn’t matter that you’re supplementing with fish oil, either,” says Dr. Sears. “You’ll still fall short.” According to several reports published in JNS and Nature, nearly 60% of fish oils don’t contain the amounts of DHA as listed on the label. In fact, in some countries a startling 69% contain less than two-thirds. But while most would blame shoddy supplement practices, Dr. Sears has a different theory. “If you look at the FAO, you’ll learn that more than 80% of store-bought fish oils come from fish farms. And I’ll tell you why that’s a problem.” A study from Stirling University found that, in just the last 9-years, DHA levels in farmed fish have been slashed in half. According to Dr. Sears, fish farmers are to blame.

FARMED FISH FAIL TO BOOST MEMORY “Most fish are carnivores,” explains Dr. Sears. “And carnivore fish, like cod and salmon, can’t produce their own DHA. They have to get it from a natural diet, rich in marine life.” During his research, Dr. Sears uncovered that sometime in the 1990s, fish farmers stopped giving these animals a diet rich in DHA and began feeding them a diet that was 70% vegetarian. “It was a quick way for farmers to cut costs,” explains Dr. Sears. “This is why the country is experiencing a memory crisis.” In order to produce DHA, fish need a natural, marine diet. French researchers found that by giving fish the right diet, resembling what they’d eat in the wild, you could boost DHA levels by 20-fold. This further proves Dr. Sears’ theory. “If you want to improve your memory and brainpower, you have to ensure your DHA comes from the wild.” Over the last 24-months, Dr. Sears and his team have been developing a unique brain-boosting formula called Omega Rejuvenol. It’s made from the most powerful, natural source of DHA in the ocean, squid and krill — two species that cannot be farmed.

According to Dr. Sears, these are the purest and most potent sources of DHA in the world, because they haven’t been tampered with. “Omega Rejuvenol is sourced from the most sustainable fishery in Antarctica. You won’t find this oil in any stores.”

MORE IMPRESSIVE RESULTS Already, the formula has sold more than 27,000 bottles. And for a good reason, too. Satisfied customers can’t stop raving about the memory-boosting benefits of quality-sourced DHA oil. “I see a noticeable increase in my brain function. I’m experiencing a noticeable increase in my concentration level and productivity throughout the day,” says satisfied customer, Timothy B. “It’s great to remember everyone who played in the ‘75 World Series. My memory has never been sharper,” says Mike T. “After the first time I took it, I experienced mental clarity and focus. I noticed my mental function improve and I could concentrate better and be more productive throughout the day,” raves John F. And 70-year-old Mark K. says, “My focus and memory are back to age30 levels.” These are just a handful of the thousands of reviews Dr. Sears receives on a regular basis thanks to his breakthrough memory formula, Omega Rejuvenol.

WHERE TO FIND OMEGA REJUVENOL To secure bottles of this brain-booster, buyers should contact the Sears Health Hotline at 1-800-799-0264 within the next 48 hours. “It takes time to manufacture these bottles,” says Dr. Sears. “The Hotline allows us to ship the product directly to customers who need it most.” Dr. Sears feels so strongly about this product, he is offering a 100%, money-back guarantee on every order. “Send back any used or unused bottles within 90 days and I’ll rush you a refund,” says Dr. Sears. The Hotline is taking orders for the next 48 hours. After that, the phone number will shut off to allow for inventory restocking. Call 1-800-799-0264 to secure your limited supply of Omega Rejuvenol.

Ely also makes herself available to seniors when they have transportation needs for doctors’ appointments, grocery shopping and other errands. In her new role as city councilwoman, Ely commented on what issues and concerns she would prioritize in representing her constituents. “There are many items that need to be addressed in our city. I am currently trying to bring myself up to date with regards to the most pressing items that have been and will be brought to council,” she said. “I have spent time reviewing previous minutes and committee reports so that I might be informed and be able to make proper decisions with regards to city business. I have two social issues that are of great interest and concern to me, the senior citizens and the developmentally disabled citizens of our community. I would like to see more opportunities and services offered to these two underserved groups of citizens.” Ely represents those living in Greenville’s Second Ward, which spans three precincts: W.
