BY RYAN BERRY MANAGING EDITOR editor@earlybirdpaper.com GREENVILLE – For the second time in as many years, Greenville City Schools will be looking for a director of the Career Technical Center. After 14 years as a teacher, principal, director of administrative services, director of business services and head of the Career Technical Center at Greenville City Schools, Jon McGreevey announced he is resigning his position and leaving the district. The 1996 Greenville graduate is accepting a position as a building principal at the Miami Valley Career Technical Center. In addition to his work as an educator, McGreevey also played a key role in Greenville’s new k-8 building and the remodeling of the high school. Along with the Superintendent Doug Fries, he was involved in the planning and oversight

of both projects. McGreevey said, “I have enjoyed all my positions with Greenville City schools - teacher, coach, advisor, principal, and director. I will miss the staff and students that I have known for many years.” The decision to leave was not an easy one, but for McGreevey he felt it was time. “This is a personal and professional career change. I am very thankful to have been given the opportunity to come back to my hometown and work with great students and staff. This community is going in a great direction; my wife and I are proud to be a part of it.”

GREENVILLE – Over 150 persons, including approximately 60 students from St. Mary’s School, gathered in front of the Greenville City Building at noon on May 7 to celebrate the National Day of Prayer. This year’s theme of “Lord Hear Our Cry” was evident in each of the prayers given by local leaders and pastors. The event is presented annually by the Greater Greenville Ministerial Association (GGMA) in cooperation with Mayor Mike Bowers. The event began with a welcome from Minister Jim Morehouse who pointed out Greenville’s event was just one of 43,000 taking place across the country. Mayor Bowers gave the opening prayer by praying for the community. He also led the Pledge

of Allegiance and introduced Ashley Grote, Lyssa Middlestetter and Brooke Netzley who sang the National Anthem while Color Guard from American Legion Post 140 presented the Colors. Joseph Helfrich and Brent Coursey presented several worship songs during the event. Prayers were offered for the government, judicial system, military, businesses, media, medical community, education, families, volunteers, church, GGMA and worldwide persecution of Christians. Persons presenting the prayers were Father John White, Pastor Gary Oser, Jesse Green, Lowell Lavy, Naomi Cantrell, Rev. Joseph Soley, Principal Vernon Rosenbeck, Randall Clay, Trudy Eastland, Pastor Doug Klinsing and Pastor Dale Boeger. Pastor John Monroe gave the benediction.

GREENVILLE – The Early Bird Newspaper and Editor Ryan Berry garnered four regional awards from the Mid-Atlantic Community Paper Association. Three were for Berry’s original writing and one was for a staff effort for the 2014 Veterans Day tab. The Veterans tab received the First Place Community Service award in the sequential pages category. The original writing awards were: First Place News Story for “Strike Possible if Hospital and WPWA Can’t Agree;” First Place Personal Column for three selections from Ryan’s World; and Honorable Mention for Featured Story, “Dickey’s Story will Continue to be Told.” “I’m excited about this,” Berry said. “It feels good

to be recognized by your peers.” He added he was really proud of the personal column recognition. “I just started writing things down… letting the family know my thoughts. It turned into a column. “I like not having to stick to a journalistic format… and my daughters love it.” He said they wanted to know which stories he submitted. Berry said he’s also proud of the Veterans tab. “It’s a lot of work by everyone in this building,” he said. Early Bird/Bluebag Media publisher Keith Foutz said he was honored and pleased the Early Bird Newspaper staff continues to be recognized for its efforts. “Content continues to grow,” he added, “as we continue to strive to be the Darke County newspaper of choice.” Berry has been with the Early Bird 22 years, and its

editor for 15 years. This is the first time the newspaper has entered an editorial contest so he’s especially gratified at the peer recognition. While he said he sometimes gets frustrated over being bogged down with the day-to-day mundane “stuff,” his favorite aspects of the job are getting out into the community and talking to and learning about people. He recalled

the Ross Clark story from nearly 20 years ago… a history of a family playing with the Harlem Globetrotters… as one of his favorites. He acknowledged, however, the mundane is important as well. “It’s part of getting things done,” he said. “We’re working continuously to put out the best product we possibly can.”

GREENVILLE POLICE BEAT

Hiding from police leads to additional charges On April 28 Darke County Municipal Court issued a bench warrant for Katrina Cheadle. Police went to 212 Harrison Ave. where she is believed to be living with her grandmother. Bethany Gonzales answered the door and stated Cheadle was not there. As police were leaving an anonymous witness told them he saw Cheadle in the back yard.

Police returned to the residence and were told the same story; they were also given permission to enter and search. Another family member arrived and asked Gonzales why she would hide Cheadle; he told police she’s probably hiding in the basement. The basement entrance was blocked by a number of items. When they were removed police

found Cheadle hiding in the basement. She was arrested on the warrant, original charge Driving Under Suspension. Police discovered a small plastic baggie with green vegetation on her person. Cheadle said “That’s marijuana, who cares?” Dispatch later told the officers Cheadle had called earlier and given an incorrect address, reportedly in hopes of hampering efforts to find her. She was transported to Darke County jail on the outstanding warrant and Obstructing Official Business. She was also served a misdemeanor citation for drug abuse. Gonzales was cited for Obstructing Justice. DRUGS On May 1 police conducted a traffic stop on West Main Street for no rear license plate light. When the officer made contact with the driver, Elijah Laughman, he noted a strong odor of alcoholic beverage coming from the vehicle. Laughman, 19, said he’d had two beers. The officer also began to notice the odor of marijuana coming from the vehicle. The defendant’s eyes appeared glossy and the pupils di-

lated. Laughman acknowledged there was marijuana in the vehicle and that he’d smoked some prior to driving. Multiple items dealing with marijuana use were found in the vehicle. The defendant did poorly on a field sobriety test and was placed under arrest. Laughman passed the breathalyzer test but also submitted to a urine test which will be sent to crime lab for results. He was cited for OVI, drug abuse, drug paraphernalia and license plate light violation. On April 28 police were dispatched to Shelter House 3 in Greenville City Park. Several people had been observed in a vehicle passing and smoking marijuana from a glass pipe. The individual was a juvenile and she had two glass smoking pipes in her vehicle. She insisted no one had been smoking marijuana in the vehicle that day. She did not appear to be impaired and she was cooperative with the officer. The juvenile received a misdemeanor citation for Drug Paraphernalia and her guardian was contacted by phone. She was advised to go straight home per her guardian’s orders. DISORDERLY CONDUCT On May 2 police were dispatched to the area behind JC Penney regarding a male subject, Jeffrey Dawson Jr., lying in the grass unconscious. It took several attempts to wake him up. He appeared highly intoxicated; slurring his words and having difficulty keeping his balance. Greenville Township had responded but Dawson refused treatment. He had entered Buffalo Wild Wings while intoxicated and had been refused service. Employees took him to the back entrance and tried to give him a ride

home, which he refused. Dawson’s girlfriend was contacted and arrived to pick him up. He was cited for Disorderly Conduct. JUVENILE On April 28 police were dispatched to Greenville Junior High School regarding a student with a razor blade. The student acknowledged having the razor blade, at first saying it was to cut some plastic off of her binder. When the officer pointed out no plastic had been cut, she said she was carrying it for protection. She said she was scared because of an earlier incident involving razor blades; she also acknowledged she had not received any threats. It was clear the student brought the item as a weapon for protection. She was issued a misdemeanor citation for carrying a Concealed Weapon and released to her mother. SHOPLIFTING On May 3 police were

dispatched to Family Dollar, 300 Martin St., regarding a suspect (named but possibly a juvenile) who was observed placing two drinks and a package of mechanical pencils in his jacket and leaving the store. He was issued a citation and his mother contacted to pick him up. On April 26 police were dispatched to Walmart, 1501 Wagner Ave., regarding a suspect, Josh Shelton, leaving the store with a bag of charcoal without paying for it. Shelton was observed leaving the scene by security, who then called police. The officer contacted an individual who was with Shelton; she said she knew nothing about him stealing anything. The next day Shelton called the police department, asking to speak to the officer. Dispatch advised he could speak with the officer when he picked up his citation. It was issued on April 29.

If you have school-age children, you might greet the arrival of June with some relief — for at least a few months, you don’t have to worry about “encouraging” kids to do their homework and study for tests. But one day, these obligations will give way to a substantially bigger one — paying for college. One popular college-savings vehicle is a 529 plan. When you invest in a 529 plan, your earnings grow tax free, provided the money is used strictly for qualified higher education expenses. (Withdrawals not used for these expenses will be taxed and may also incur a 10% penalty.) Plus, if you invest in your own state’s plan, your contributions may be tax-deductible. In any case, consult with your tax advisor before investing, as tax issues for 529 plans can be complex. Until this year, you were only allowed to change the investments in your 529 plan once a year. This caused concern among some investors, who wanted the freedom to change their 529 investments in response to movements in the financial markets. But late in 2014, President Obama signed into law the Achieving a Better Life Experience (ABLE) act, the key purpose of which was to create tax-free accounts allowing people to save for disabilityrelated expenses. And one provision of the ABLE act allows 529 plan investors to change their investments twice a year, rather than once. If you invest in a 529 plan, you might welcome this additional freedom to adjust your investments. Still, keep in mind that a 529 plan is a long-term vehicle that’s not really designed to accommodate frequent “tweaking.” And, as is true with any other investment account, such as your IRA and 401(k), you don’t want to overreact

to short-term market fluctuations by making radical changes to your investment mix. Nonetheless, you will almost certainly want to adjust your 529 plan investments somewhat — at least in the long term. If you’ve opened a 529 plan when your children are young, you have many years until you need to tap into the money — which means your account has more time for growth potential and more time to “smooth out” those periods of market volatility, which will certainly occur. Consequently, you may be able to afford to invest somewhat more aggressively when your children are young. However, as your kids near college, you will probably want to revisit the level of risk in your 529 plan. During the last couple of years before you need to access your plan, you may want to consider moving some of your investment dollars to more conservative allocations. By doing so, you’ll cut back on your growth potential, but you’ll also help lessen the risk of taking a big hit if you have to start taking withdrawals during a “down” market. Some 529 plans offer an option that automatically adjusts your investment mix toward a more conservative approach as your children near college age. But you may want to make your own adjustments, possibly with the help of a financial professional, to ensure that your 529 plan accurately reflects your own preferences and risk tolerance. As you save for your children’s college education, you may find a 529 plan to be a great help. Just be sure to keep a close watch on your plan’s investments as the years go by.

Red Cross hasn’t lost sight of where it started BY RYAN BERRY MANAGING EDITOR editor@earlybirdpaper.com

GREENVILLE – When you think of the American Red Cross you probably think of volunteers helping with natural disasters and locally with house fires. You might even remember it is the place to go when you need to renew your CPR. However, a lot of us have lost sight that it is started as an organization that helped our servicemen when Clara Barton came to the aid of those injured in the Civil War. While many of us have forgotten the Red Cross’ roots, the local chapter hasn’t. On May 3, the Northern Miami Valley Office of the Red Cross presented A Salute to Our Military Families. In addition to a concert by Tipp City native Donnie Reis, an Army veteran, several booths were set up for veterans and their families to learn more about the programs available that support veterans and active duty servicemen and women. While the local office continues to help families connect with military members serving abroad during an emergency, their support of our heroes doesn’t stop there. Rita McManis, a volunteer with local Red Cross, leads a team of volunteers that visits veterans in area nursing homes on a monthly basis. McManis said she has been doing

this for five years and finds it very rewarding. The program gets help from local preschool students that color pictures for the veterans and McManis and her volunteers deliver the pictures to all of the nursing homes in Greenville, Versailles and Union City. She said they visit approximately 200 veterans. Lynne Gump, of the Red Cross’ Darke County office, noted they received support from the Darke County United Way to present the program. She pointed out the Red Cross tries to do a program every other year recognizing the county’s veterans, servicemen and women and their families.

I’m not going to run for president

I Ryan Berry, being of sound mind, hereby announce that I will not be seeking the presidential nomination in 2016. It was with much thoughtfulness and understanding of the stress and strain it would put on my wife and daughters that I have made this decision. Although I meet all of the minimum eligibility requirements (natural born citizen, resident of the US for 14 years and 35 years of age or older), there are many more untold requirements that would make me ineligible. I don’t drink, smoke, cheat on my wife or have a drug abuse problem (currently or from my young adult life). The closest I’ve come to being “high” would probably be a “contact high” from a ZZ Top concert. I’ve never been a fighter pilot, graduated from an Ivy League school or secretly

dressed in women’s clothing (I’m not saying it’s a requirement, but I might as well leave the option open in case Bruce Jenner wants to mount a campaign). I’ve also never been a governor or run a Fortune 500 company. I have, however, had the IRS come after me for money they said I owed. Wait! Nix that last one – that would make me eligible. I’m assuming if I were ever elected to the nation’s top office that I would be the first graduate from the International College of Broadcasting to lead the country. They call it an International College but I don’t remember any foreign persons attending, unless you count the one guy from Kentucky. It may not be a political science or law degree, but imagine how much better the weekly radio address would be if the president used his/her deejay voice, “It’s your prez, Rockin’ Ryan K. Berry. We have good news this week. Oil prices are down, inflation is down, but employment is up. Great news means a great song. Let’s go back in

time with a classic. Here’s the Silhouettes with Get a Job.” I have some military experience, but not as an officer. I did inspect munitions, which is a skill that could come in handy. I’m not saying I was good at it, but I didn’t accidently blow up anything either. I’m sure my opponents would find out so I might as well confess that I inspected a tear gas tablet once without wearing gloves and a mask. It’s all fun and games until you forget and rub your eyes before you wash your hands. While I’m fairly certain I’m not very presidential, I know without a doubt my wife is not First Lady material. She would probably pass out if she had to pay as much for a dress as some of those ladies have paid. The staff would be equipped with coupons for grocery shopping and downloading the digital coupons to make sure we get the Friday freebie deals would be mandatory. She would also make an executive decision that all staff must use our “plus card”

when shopping at a certain grocery store so we can get the discount on the gas price. I could never take my kids to important meetings or dinners. It probably isn’t very presidential to have them yell at each other over something trivial while I’m hosting a state dinner. I can only imagine what they would do to the Lincoln Bedroom – food wrappers all over the place and watermarks on a 100 year old night stand from the cup they left in the room. I would also need to suspend their Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat and Twitter accounts for four to eight years. They don’t always have nice things to say about me. For everyone that would have voted for me (which would have been the people that vote for the candidate they don’t know because they don’t want to vote for the candidates they do know), I say thank you for your consideration, but I’ll have to take a pass on putting a campaign together for the 2016 election.

You can own a piece of Memorial Hall BY RYAN BERRY MANAGING EDITOR editor@earlybirdpaper.com

GREENVILLE – St. Clair Memorial Hall is undergoing a huge remodeling project this summer, but you have an opportunity to own a piece of history. Nearly 650 seats will soon be taken out to make way for new seating. The current seats are approximately 50 years old; having been installed in the 1960s. Midwest Auctioneers will be accepting online bids beginning next week if you would like to purchase a seat or a row of seats. Mike Baker, of the auctioneering service, encouraged persons who have sponsored a seat to make a bid and take their seat(s) home. They have a complete list of sponsored seats and will make every effort to ensure that the person has the opportunity

to retain their seat. He also noted the new seats will keep the same sponsorships, which means supporters of Memorial Hall and Darke County Center for the Arts will not need to purchase a new sponsorship. The seats will not be sold in a live auction. This is an online auction only. There will be a minimum bid and the auction is ex-

pected to end on June 1. A link to the auction site can be found at www.midwestauctioners.com. Baker understands there are some persons who aren’t comfortable bidding online and his staff will make arrangements to assist anyone who needs help. You can call his office, 548-2640, or stop into Midwest Auctioneers & Realty, 220 E.

Fourth St., Greenville, and the staff will assist you in making a bid. He will also have a person available during the Greenville City Schools Surplus Auction on May 24, 4 p.m., in the Greenville High School Cafeteria, to assist persons wanting to bid on the seats. A day and time to pick up the seats will be announced later.

GREENVILLE – Tied for No. 1 in the Division II state ranking, a perfect 10-0 GWOC Championship, a 22 game win streak and Russell’s 100th career hit has Greenville abuzz about Lady Wave softball. Ally Russell collected her 100th hit in a Lady Wave varsity uniform with an opening double off the centerfield fence to propel Greenville to an 8-2 win over the Sidney Lady Yellow Jackets and used Senior Night the following day to defeat Jackets and close out the GWOC north season a perfect 10-0. Karsyn Shaffer followed Russell’s opening double in game one with a bunt single followed by the Wave’s No. 3 batter, Sydney Grote stoking a 2-RBI single to right. A one-out walk to Jazzlyn Petry set the stage for a bases loaded double off the bat of Makayla Hanes scoring three runners giving the Wave a 5-0 firstinning lead. With Russell and Allison Minnich sharing the duties on the mound, the Lady Wave carried an 8-1 lead into the bottom of the seventh-inning. “Russell’s 100th hit in three years,” said Greenville Coach Jerrod Newland. “It’s pretty impressive. If you say 100 hits in a high school career, that’s pretty neat.” “It was a good one,” said Newland following a Tuesday 2-1 win. “We didn’t string much together hitwise, but pitching and defense goes a long way.” Sidney grabbed a 1-0 lead in the top of the third taking advantage of an opening infield single, a sacrifice groundout, a pitch in the dirt and a second groundout plating a

Karsyn Shaffer legged out a Wave infield single, stole second and third before a Cassie Cromwell sacrifice grounder scored Shaffer with the tying run. Sydney Grote laced a two-out triple to right followed with a Jazzlyn Petry RBI single to left giving the Lady Wave a 2-1 lead after three. “Tonight - kept the ball down and we made 14 out of 15 plays in the infield,” continued Newland. “Just a pretty good day pitching and defense. When you hold the other team to one run and one hit you’re going to win a lot of games.” Russell went the distance on the mound for the win. “She’s a neat kid … I love her to death,” said Newland. “Couldn’t ask for anything more in a kid and family. Just a neat kid. 4.0 student athlete … they don’t get any better than that.” “A solid kid,” Newland added. “It all starts at home with a good mom and dad, good family and structure. Russell would limit the Lady Jackets to a one-out fifth-inning walk over the final four-innings of play to secure the perfect 10-0 Greater Western Ohio Conference Championship season. The Lady Wave now own five consecutive GWOC North Championships since rejoining the league in 2011 including four titles outright. Over the five year period the team has gone 10-0, 9-1 three times and a perfect 10-0 this season.

Hundreds take part in GGSA opening day ceremony BY GAYLEN BLOSSER SPORTS WRITER gblosser@earlybirdpaper.com

GREENVILLE – The Greenville Girls Softball Association (GGSA) held its 43rd opening day ceremony and games Saturday at the Stebbins Field Complex. “It’s a great program,” said GGSA President Eric Fellers. “It’s one of the largest seasons we have had. We have over 320 kids signed up. With the projects that we have done it has really helped turn Stebbins Complex into one of the best facilities in Ohio.” Fellers thanked all of those that make GGSA what it is today, including players, parents, coaches, officers and supporters. A lighting project for diamonds 3 and 4 that has been a long time coming and is now in place for the start of the 2015 Greenville softball schedule. Fellers introduced the contributors and donors of the project; the Hole-Coppock Trust, Harry Stephens Fund, 3-Way Electric and Eldora Speedway. Eldora Speedway donated all the lights while the Hole-Coppock Trust, Harry Stephens Fund and 3-Way Electric brought the entire project together in under a year. “These lights lit-up the track for many of the greatest races and some of the greatest drivers to ever race at the famed Eldora Speedway in northern Darke County owned by the late Earl Baltes and now by NASCAR driver Tony Stewart,” said Fellers. “Now these lights will serve another purpose … they will light up these fields for the future stars of our community … our children.” Throwing out the ceremonial first pitch was Monte Miller, owner of 3-Way Electric and a member of the Williams family of Union City.

The Dylan Williams Forever and All-Star Foundation and Reid Hospital donated an AED (automated external defibrillator) this is located inside the main door of the concession stand. The Association strives to bring awareness of sport safety, CPR training and the placement of AED at sports fields. Commenting on the success of the Greenville High School varsity softball team, Fellers introduced Greenville Head Coach Jerrod Newland who addressed the many fans in attendance. “GGSA is the best kept secret in Greenville and it’s no longer a secret,” said Coach Newland. “It’s kids playing softball, young students athletes. Parents give them the opportunity to do it and what a great place to do it. Beautiful fields, beautiful organizers, leaders and we are all in it together for kids playing softball and enjoying the game. That’s what it is all about.” “I always say it’s about your brothers, sisters, moms, dads and grandparents because that is what it’s all about,” Newland said. “Family comes first and once again softball is an extracurricular thing but once we can get it in you and your family it gets in the blood and it’s a passion.” Greenville American Legion Post 140 donated the American Flag and the POW/MIA Flag that fly from the flag pole in centerfield. Tiffany Shaffer introduced the GameDay Drawing winner and Fundraiser Prize Winners. “The yearly fundraiser drive is the backbone of the organization,” said Fellers. “It takes the entire organization to sustain what we have and to make it better year after year.” Like the GGSA on Facebook for photos and announcements all season long.

ARCANUM – The Trojans played host the TriCounty North Panthers softball and baseball teams with the Lady Trojans winning a 17-4 six-inning run rule contest while North was handing the Trojans baseball team its first CCC loss of the season 3-1. Leading 13-4 with bases loaded and two outs in the bottom of the sixth, Britney Kinney drilled a walk-off grand slam home run over the leftfield fence. “Bottom of the sixth, bases loaded with two outs, we needed one run for the run rule and Brittany Kinney stepped up to the plate and I was joking with her,” said Arcanum Coach Rick Stone, “and I said, hey you want to put a squeeze on and she said yes lets go for a squeeze. I said no, you are going to hit the first one out of the park for a grand slam and she did it.” “I called it,” chuckled Stone. “I wish I could do that all the time.” Brittany Kinney was 2-4 at the plate with 5-RIB, Loganne Stone 4-5 with 4-RBI, Cassidy Clark 3-4 and 3-RBI, Elle Siculan 3-4 and 3-runs

scored and Kaitlyn Zell 3-4 with 2-runs scored. “The whole team stepped up tonight,” Stone said. “Everybody put the bat on the ball. Abby Bruns hit the ball hard all night but she unfortunately hit it right at someone.” Siculan struck out six while going the distance on the mound for the Lady Trojans. “Elle Siculan has stepped up as a freshman and has done a great job on the mound for us,” said Stone. “Tonight we come out and hit the ball real well … put 17 runs on the board. Hopefully we will carry this on in the tournament.” The Arcanum baseball team came into the game with a perfect 11-0 league record while clinching the CCC Championship outright with a Tuesday night win over National Trail only to lose 3-1 on this night to Tri-County North. “If we hit the ball tonight we win this game,” said Arcanum Coach Randy Baker. “We had chances earlier in the game. We need to move runners over better. We didn’t do that.” The Panthers took a 2-0 first-inning lead sending eight batters to the plate and added a run in the top of the third giving North a

3-0 lead. A sixth-inning Conner Pohl one-out triple to right set up the Trojans only run of the night coming by way of a sacrifice fly to center off the bat of Collin Habel scoring Pohl for a 3-1 score that would hold up for the final score. “We didn’t hit very well,” said Baker. “Popped a lot of balls up. The biggest thing is we did not make adjustments at the plate.” “You only give up three runs to a team that has been scoring a bunch of runs all season long … not too many teams have held them to three,” said Baker.

Wave baseball celebrates Senior Night GWOC win BY GAYLEN BLOSSER SPORTS WRITER gblosser@earlybirdpaper.com

GREENVILLE – Greenville’s varsity baseball team rebounded from an 11-1 Monday night road loss to the Sidney winning at home on senior night 11-5 giving the teams a season split in the GWOC north. With the Wave’s three seniors, Reece Hunt, Dylan Shumaker and Quinton Wood on the field, Greenville jumped out to an early 6-0 lead over the Yellow Jackets after three-innings. “Exciting night for all of them,” said Greenville Coach Eric Blumenstock. “They all played really well tonight. Shumaket threw outstanding.” Greenville senior Dylan Shumaker stuck out four while going 6 2/3 innings to pick up the win. “The guys came out and did it today,” said Blumenstock. “They did exactly what I asked. A walk to Brandon Beyke would cost the visitors a run in the bottom of the first-inning as the Wave right fielder would come around to score giving the home team a 1-0 lead. Greenville plated five runs in the bottom of the third using a Beyke walk, a catcher’s interference call and singles from Quinton Wood, Reece Hunt and Jason Shields to give the Wave a 6-0 lead after three.

Each team would add a run in the fourth with the Green Wave holding a 7-1 advantage. Sidney made a game of it in the top of the fifth adding four runs to the board making a 7-5 game. Greenville used singles off the bats of Wood, Jacob Hounshell and Kyle Mills while Beyke, Brayden York and Shumaker took walks and a Shields sacrifice fly to score four runs in the bottom of the sixth giving the Wave an 11-5 lead that would hold for the final score. “They beat Piqua twice, they are a good team,” Blumenstock said. “They started their ACE against us … a kid that normally gets them a win. We hit him really well. Hit them really hard tonight.” “The three seniors are my middle,” stated Blumenstock. “My number one pitcher, my centerfielder and my catcher. It’s a good nucleus of kids even though we only have three … it’s a good three to have.” A Thursday Springfield road trip against the GWOC Central Division Springfield Wildcats was not so kind to the Wave limiting Greenville to three hits in a 6-0 loss.

“Night and day from yesterday,” said Greenville Coach Eric Blumenstock. “Had a little letdown today.” The score stood at 0-0 after one-inning, but it was Springfield putting four runs on the second-inning board while adding two third-inning runs to lead 6-0 after three. Two of the three Wave hits came off the bat of freshman Kyle Mills with a Kyle Phillips single accounting for the hit No 3. With two fourth-inning Wildcat runners on and one down, coach Blumenstock summoned Brandon Beyke to the mound where

the Greenville sophomore promptly got the Wave out of the inning. Good Wave defense and pitching kept Springfield scoreless after inning No. 3 but the damage was done as Greenville would go down in order in each of the final four-innings with Springfield handing the Wave a 6-0 loss. “A lot of bad approaches at the plate we need to get fixed in a hurry,” Blumenstock said. Greenville travels to Fairborn’s Skyhawk Stadium for a first round Division I tournament game at 5:00 pm Tuesday.

STAFF WRITER crandall@earlybirdpaper.com

ARCANUM - When Arcanum teen Justin Troutwine went to the hospital on March 23 his mother Darlene Morris said they never expected a diagnoses of cancer. After increasingly worsening symptoms, the 17-year-old was taken to Children’s Medical Center in Dayton were they discovered a germ cell tumor in his chest. According to the Children’s Cancer Research Fund, germ cell tumors (GCTs) are masses of tissue formed by the type of immature cells in either females or males. Germ cell tumors may be malignant, which means cancerous, or they may be benign, which means noncancerous. Troutwine has a genetic disorder that makes him at a much greater risk for several types of cancers. Once the doctors diagnosed the teen, he was immediately scheduled to start chemotherapy treatments for three days every

three weeks. He will soon be undergoing surgery to remove the mass. After Justin was released from the hospital he soon returned to school with all of his friends and his brother, Colton. “They are all awesome,â€? Justin said when asked how his classmates are supporting him. The Arcanum community came together to organize a fundraiser even before the teen was released from the hospital. Friends and family started using the hashtag #JustinStrong on popular social media sites and created a Support Justin page on Facebook to help give the teen strength and show their support for his ordeal. “The support from the community is just amazing,â€? Morris told The Early Bird. “Everyone has done so much to make things a little easier to deal with.â€? Along with Colton, Justin has one step brother and two step sisters. He recently threw out the ďŹ rst pitch at the Arcanum Trojans baseball game at Fifth Third Field. Colton, who

As he continues the treatments and awaits a date for the surgery, Troutwine enjoys time with his friends and family and playing video games to help take his mind off of things. He is not quite sure what he plans to do after high school, but says he enjoys history class the most. In addition to the April 8 beneďŹ t at Miller’s Tavern in Arcanum, bracelets and t-shirts have been sold to help raise money for the family. A community fund-

raiser is scheduled for this weekend, through May 10 from 6 a.m. to 9 p.m. at Bob Evans in Greenville.

Award winning dementia program comes to BRC BOB ROBINSON

ASSOCIATE EDITOR brobinson@earlybirdpaper.com

GREENVILLE – An award winning dementia program, Behavior Based Ergonomics Therapy (BBET), is being implemented at Brethren Retirement Community thanks to generous donations from the community and the George B. Quatman Foundation, a trust of Fifth Third Bank. Dr. Govind Bharwani, the creator of BBET, offered a presentation on the program April 29 to BRC staff, board members and guests. It is an individualized program using music, videos, therapy, a memory ‘prop box’ and more to help residents and family in their “journey through dementia.� Dr. Bharwani said his team is excited to be working with BRC’s leadership team and staff to implement the program for residents with memory care needs. “We believe Brethren Retirement Community will be tremendously successful in this journey,� he said. BRC Executive Director John Warner said they researched different programs to help their resi-

dents with dementia care needs and found BBET. “We raised the funds $60,000 – to bring it here.â€? In addition to implementing BBET, guests were invited to tour Brethren Retirement Community’s newly renovated assisted living neighborhood. It features a full service kitchen, dining room, spa room and an additional nurses ofďŹ ce. “This Oakview 3 Assisted Living neighborhood has 30 apartments,â€? Warner said. “It’s a small neighborhood with all amenities. The newly renovated dining room will seat 35 and can serve the entire Oakview neighborhood.â€? The spa room is open to all, including the public, by appointment. Massage therapy is also offered. Warner noted the “neighborhoodâ€? location is ideal, with the library one oor below and the senior ďŹ tness room one oor below that. “It’s a small neighborhood concept‌ it was our goal in the renovation,â€? Warner said. While the donations were for BBET, the assisted living renovation was done through Capital Improvement funds.

GREENVILLE – When lifelong Greenville residents think of photography the name Ted Grote is at the top of most people’s list. Ted and his wife Leila were best known for over 50 years of local ďŹ lm photography, capturing memories and family moments that are long since forgotten. Grote Photography has been a part of downtown Greenville since before 1961 when the couple set up their studio at 324 South Broadway. Over the years the Grote’s have provided photography services for high school seniors, family and child portraits, weddings, beautiful landscapes and much more. Seeing the latest featured portraits in the front window of the studio was something that got the attention of many as they walked or drove by Grote Photography over the years. When Main Street Greenville Executive Director Amber Garrett asked how Ted determined which portraits were displayed in his front window, he simply said, “the ones that made me want to cry!â€? It is no question how passionate Ted and Leila are about photography and their community. Ted took his ďŹ rst photo at the age of 13 and ďŹ nal one at the age of 84. With the ever changing demands of digital photography and some recent health issues, keeping up with the business became too much for the couple to continue to handle. In October 2013 Ted

went to his business neighbor and friend Janet Wideman of Janet’s Broadway Bakery to announce that he and Leila were ready to call it quits and sell the business. Though Wideman had to turn down the offer of buying the building, she wanted to help out in anyway she could since the Grotes had no family in the area. She immediately contacted Amber Garrett to inform her of the Grotes’ decision and make a plan to assist them. As a for sale sign took over the former featured portrait display window, it was apparent that another downtown Greenville historic business was making way for a new owner. With the closing of the sale only weeks away, Garrett, Wideman and another downtown business owner CJ Jasenski, formed a team of volunteers to help clear out the studio, including Dirk Wideman, Rob and Phoenix Garrett, Liam and Charlie Jasenski, Steve Birt, David Nilsen, John Baker, Greg Metzcar, Patti Jetter, Nancy Person, Julia KellerClark, Gail Bankson, Julie Kessen and Diana & Gary Wagner. “We wanted to be sure all of items that were stored in the building were secured and accounted for,â€? Garrett said. “There was so much stuff and going through it all was like taking a trip back in time.â€? In an interview with The Early Bird, Garrett and Jasenski reected on how much fun it was to sort through the “millions of facesâ€? that Ted and Leila captured over the years. “Seeing a lifetime of work was amazing as we

went through everything,� Jasenski said. “The consistency of his work over the years was remarkable!� An auction was recently held to raise money for the Grotes, who are now enjoying their golden years at a local retirement facility. The money raised from the sale of decades worth of memories and equipment went to the couple for expenses. Hundreds of special photos held back, including the iconic “green chair� will be made available to the public at the Ted Grote Portrait Sale on May 17 during the Food Truck Rally, Eat on the Street event.

Youth For Christ Golf Classic set GREENVILLE – June 24 will be the date as Youth for Christ of the Miami Valley holds its 23rd annual Golf Classic at the White Springs Golf Club. YFC’s annual golf classic is always a popular day with local golfers and an important part of

furthering the ministry of Youth for Christ. One of the reasons YFC’s tournament is so well liked is because of the delicious food that is served all throughout the day. That experience is enhanced even more for those who choose to participate

Maid-Rite Gets a Gold Star

Maid Rite is a Gold Star Donor for Gala GREENVILLE – The Garst Museum and the National Annie Oakley Center wants to publicly thank the Maid-Rite Sandwich Shop for its Gold Star sponsorship to Annie’s Star Spangled Gala. You can view the many auction and raffle prizes at https://www. flickr.com/photos/garstmuseum/. Annie’s Star Spangled Gala will be held June 13. Doors open at 6:30 p.m. at the Garst Museum. This is a fundraiser for the Garst Museum and The National Annie Oakley Center. Come and join in on this great evening of live and silent auctions, lots of fun raffles, door prizes, and light hors d’oeuvres. Event tickets are

$15 per person in advance or $20 at the door and can be purchased by calling the Garst Museum. Reserve tables are available for groups of six or more. One of the raffles is Annie’s Star Spangled Raffle. Prizes include $1,000 cash; accommodations for a weekend Gatlinburg get-away donated by Tom and Cindy Scott/Tom Scott Seed Service; and a new Apple Watch Sport Tickets for this raffle are available for $5 per chance by calling the Museum at 548-5250 or by contacting a board member. You need not be present to win. All funds raised at this event will benefit the Garst Museum in Greenville.

in a “Gold Class Upgrade.” By contributing or raising double the registration fee for the event, “Gold Class” players receive additional benefits such as steak sandwiches, a complimentary golf shirt, and chair massage. These “Gold Class” amenities will continue to be revealed throughout the day, adding an extra measure of fun to the event and increasing the amount of money raised for Youth for Christ programs. Another reason people enjoy YFC’s Golf Classic is because of the many prizes that are available. Golfers are encouraged to solicit pledges rather than “paying to play” to more greatly benefit Youth for Christ. Some still choose to simply pay their own registration, but wonderful prizes await those who are successful in raising the most money. This year’s top four fundraisers will choose between a golf trip at Hueston Woods

State Park Resort, two quality golf clubs, a $100 Ace gift card, or a $100 sporting goods gift card. These awards are in addition to the many door prizes that everyone is eligible to win. Last year’s Youth for Christ Golf Classic yielded more than $18,400 to benefit YFC’s ministry to young people. In addition to what was raised by the golfers, a significant portion of this income came from local businesses and individuals who sponsored holes, carts, and the grand prizes. Some businesses chose to go even beyond these levels with their support. These sponsorships are for those that want to more significantly support YFC and they will receive more significant advertising in return. This year’s goal is to raise $20,000 to benefit teenagers, which means new sponsors and golfers are being sought. Youth for Christ of the

PUBLIC NOTICE

Public Participation Meeting to be Held to review the General Plan Report for Answered Communities Project for Wayne Lakes. The Miami Valley is dotted with small communities with pockets of areas served by septic systems. In locations where these systems no longer provide adequate wastewater treatment, environmental and health agencies are concerned about the potential for pollution from these systems to harm the environment and human health. The Miami Valley Regional Planning Commission (MVRPC) realizes these communities face real challenges in planning solutions for future wastewater treatment. Therefore, MVRPC is spearheading the “Unsewered Communities Project” to examine and report on the options for these communities to improve wastewater systems and protect the environment. The General Plan report will identify actionable solutions and lay the groundwork for future projects. A public meeting will provide the residents and property owners in Wayne Lakes an opportunity to review the General Plan report. The meeting will be held as follows: Saturday, May 30, 2015 Wayne Lakes Community Building 100 Community Drive Greenville, Ohio 45331 2:00 p.m. – 4:00 p.m. “The "Unsewered Communities Project" will evaluate the specific problems and needs of each participating community to develop customized wastewater treatment options in the form of a General Plan,” said MVRPC’s Executive Director, Brian O. Martin, AICP. If you are unable to attend the meeting, the General Plan report will also be available for public review on MVRPC’s web site at www.mvrpc.org/environment/ WaterQualityManagement/ on or before May 8, 2015. You can also review the list at the MVRPC offices, 10 N. Ludlow Street, Suite 700, Dayton, OH, 45402, during regular business hours (8:00 a.m. – 5:00 p.m., Monday through Friday). Written comments will be accepted through June 8, 2015 at the above address or via e-mail to Matt Lindsay, Manager of Environmental Planning, at mlindsay@mvrpc.org. At all MVRPC public participation meetings, interpreters for hearing impaired individuals or bi-lingual interpreters are available upon request.

AUTOMOTIVE MARKET

Christina’s continues to help local women Film series continues at library in May GREENVILLE—When Christina Nestor began operating a garage sale from her home to raise some much needed money, little did she realize it would turn into a business. Now celebrating her 23rd year, Christina’s Consignment is a place where “Ladies Help Ladies.” Nestor says she has been “very blessed” and owes the success of Christina’s Consignment to the ladies who consign items to the shop and those who shop there. “We are like no other consignment shop,” says Nestor. “Just walk in the door at 146 West Water Street in Greenville and you’ll know what I am talking about. The store is one of a kind ladies’ plus size shop. It’s a place where ladies can go and know they

are going to find things that will fit and they will be affordable.” Christina’s Consignment takes clothes size 14 and over only, but women of any size can consign accessory items such as scarves, handbags, shoes and jewelry. Nestor accepts consignments on a seasonal basis and everything must be clean and up to date, nothing older than two years, with no stains or missing buttons. “If you wouldn’t buy it, I don’t want to offer it,” Nestor tells her consignors. Items consigned to the shop are offered for sale for two months. Unsold items are given back to the consignor or are donated to clothing banks and charities at the consignor’s preference.

Ladies Help Ladies has been the theme of Christina’s Consignments since it opened 23 years ago.

“Consigning is a nice way to make extra cash,” says Nestor. “Why just give your stuff away. We as women need a nice place to shop and a way to make our own money. I invite women to come in and spend some time in Christina’s Consignment. Browse, try things on in my dressing

rooms, have a little fun doing it.” Christina’s Consignment is located at 146 West Water Street in Greenville. The store is open Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Saturday from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. The phone number is 548-7147.

GREENVILLE – The next event in the Third Flood Film Series at the Greenville Public Library will be May 14, 7 p.m. The 1970 film Five Easy Pieces, starring Jack Nicholson and directed by Bob Rafelson, will play on the library’s 80 inch flat screen. Five Easy Pieces was a groundbreaking film in the American movie landscape of 1970, and it made Nicholson a star. While the title and its director aren’t as widely known to modern

movie audiences as one might hope, the influence of this film can be seen all over today’s independent cinema. Featuring wonderful performances and a whipsmart screenplay, Five Easy Pieces is a must-see for any serious movie lover. Be sure to make plans to attend Five Easy Pieces on May 14. Fresh popcorn, candy, and snacks will once again be available, and David Nilsen will again lead a brief discussion when the film is over.
