Darke County Park District receives $225,000 ODNR grant BOB ROBINSON

ASSOCIATE EDITOR brobinson@earlybirdpaper.com

Early Bird salutes our veterans Many of us can never understand the real sacrifice our veterans have given. They’ve left their homes and families and traveled thousands of miles across the globe to fight in areas most of us couldn’t find on a map. They’ve put service above self and came home injured or disabled. All have shown great love for this country and its people and lived out Jesus’ words - Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for

his friends (John 15:13). Shown above is Donald Key, of Union City, remembering the soldiers that gave the supreme sacriﬁce. When the Traveling Vietnam Memorial Wall came to Winchester, Ind. Key stood at attention for several hours saluting those who lost their lives. You can read Key’s story and many others in The Early Bird’s A Salute to Our Veterans special edition included in this weekend’s edition.

FT. RECOVERY – “Great news!!” said Darke County Parks Director Roger Van Frank when he passed on the message that the Ohio Department of Natural Resources was going to award $225,000 to the District for Phase V of its Tecumseh Trail. ODNR Parks Director Jim Zehringer was going to be presenting this and four other grants at a “rally” at Ft. Recovery High School. The room was packed… nearly half of those present were from Darke County. “This is a big deal,” Van Frank said. He recalled his first meeting with Zehringer in 2006. The State Representative had a small, cubby hole office upstairs in the Palace in Greenville. “I need your help,” he had told him. Since then, the Parks District has received nearly $2 million from Clean Ohio for the “trail,” working its way across Darke County from Bradford to its final destination in Union City. “We’re in Phase V right now,” Van Frank said. It is currently at S.R. 571. This phase takes the trail into the Greenville Indus-

trial Park. Phase VI will take the trail into Greenville City Park. “Keep in mind 25 percent of this has to be ‘in-kind’ on our part,” Van Frank added… “Thank you!!!” he said emphatically to the staff, volunteers and other supporters in the room. Zehringer, a graduate of Ft. Recovery High School, talked about the quality of life in Mercer and Darke Counties. “Residents want to improve that quality of life… they look for things to do outside,” he said. “These things are the special things villages and towns do to improve it.” He

added these grants were “extremely competitive.” “To have counties like Mercer and Darke… this is just an absolutely wonderful place to live in Ohio. Family values, work ethic… we’ve got it here!” he said. Later Van Frank commented on the turnout of Darke County residents for the event. “You spread the word and they come,” he said. “It shows how important the trail system is… it’s a partnership of people.” The City of Greenville was also a grant recipient, receiving $24,750 for lighting for the City Park.

On hand to receive the award were City Council President John Burkett, Safety Service Director Curt Garrison, and Street Supt. Ryan Delk. In addition, a $3,000 grant was awarded to Arcanum for parking lots, lights at the ball diamond. Darke County Commissioner Diane Delaplane accepted on Arcanum’s behalf. Two Mercer County awards were presented. Ft. Recovery received $120,000 for a recreational trail looping through downtown to the park, while Coldwater received $49,406 to increase its park area.

Residents express opposition to 8,000 head hog operation RYAN BERRY

MANAGING EDITOR editor@earlybirdpaper.com

GREENVILLE – Nearly 50 people ﬁlled the Darke County Commissioners meeting room and another 10-20 listened from the hallway as residents from the Beanblossom and Arnold Road area just northwest of Greenville shared their concerns with the commissioners on Nov. 4. At issue is a proposed 8,000 head hog operation in that area. According to reports, the Drew family is considering building four buildings that would hold 2,000 hogs each. The buildings and hogs would be parceled out to family members, which would circumvent the Ohio Department of Agriculture’s rules for requiring a permit to operate. The ODA regulates swine operations with 2,500 head or more. Community members asked commissioners if they agreed with the opposition to the proposed operation and to publicly express their opposition. Steve and Eileen Litchﬁeld live approximately

1/2 mile from where the barns could be built. Steve said, “We think this project is too close to too many people and simply too close to civilization. There are over 100 homes in a one-mile radius of the proposed site, which means there are approximately 100 water wells.” He also noted the operation would be about one-mile from the Greenville City limit. The group is concerned about the quality of life and the environmental impact a hog operation of this size could have on nearby residents. Tim Burns, a resident of the area and also branch manager of Mercer Savings Bank, was quick to point out the operation “does have an impact on property values. The median price for a home in this area, according to Burns, is $250,000. Carey Driscoll addressed the loophole in the law that allows for thousands of hogs to be at a single location with ODA permits. “The fact that 8,000 hogs could be my new neighbors without any ODA-approved plan to properly manager millions

of gallons of manure really concerns me,” she said. “Why avoid the scrutiny of the ODA if everything is being managed properly?” While she would prefer not to have the hog operation near her home, Driscoll and others attending agreed, “If the proposed barns had ODA permits, I would feel a little better knowing that the state had oversight. But even if they do have permits, this is still a poor location choice and will create problems for our community.” At one time it was thought the operation would supply hogs to the Tyson Foods Co., but a letter was sent to area residents and The Early Bird stating, “We strive to be good neighbors in every community we touch. I’m not sure what rumors may be circulating in your community, but I want you to know that we have no plans to do business with the proposed facility about which you expressed concern.” Eileen Litchﬁeld said, “We would like to publicly thank Tyson Foods for being the good neighbors they men-

tion on their website. We don’t know who the landowners will now choose to do business with, but we hope they will also be good neighbors and recognize what everyone here believes – this is not a good location for this type of project.” Dr. Daniel Berger and Dr. Terrance Holman addressed the medical risks associated with a hog operation of this size. Both believe there is substantial risk. Dr. Berger addressed the commissioners and said, “We are asking you to stand with us and speak for us and to protest the building of this facility. The health hazards are there. They are real. I think we’re faced with a health and ecological disaster unless something is done.” Dr. Holman clariﬁed that he was speaking on his own and not as a representative of the Board of Health because they have not had a discussion on this issue when he said, “For livestock to move into the middle of a residential area – my personal opinion is that it’s not right.” All three commission-

ers listened attentively while one area resident after another expressed their view. Commissioner Mike Rhoades said, “Our hands are tied. There is a lot of Ohio Revised Code that doesn’t permit us to do things you would like us to do. We understand. We hear what you are saying. I would like for us to sit back, compile our thoughts, go through our notes and see what we can come up with. The truth being…we have no jurisdiction whatsoever.” John Person, said, “We are a group of citizens and

we will exercise our authority and our voice. But, there is such a thing as legal jurisdiction and authority and moral jurisdiction and authority. Your voice, as a group of people who are also citizens of this county, register that moral voice. Don’t minimize your authority and power just because you don’t have the legal authority.” Rhoades agreed to try to facilitate a meeting between the residents and the state legislators that do have authority over these types of matters.

Rod Drew was in attendance for the meeting, but did not speak. Afterwards, he released a statement, “As a lifelong resident of Darke County, my family and I are disappointed in the time and energy our neighbors have spent fighting the proposed hog barns and assaulting our character and our business, instead of talking to us directly about their concerns. A couple months ago, my wife, Jonie, and I sat down with neighbors and explained our new project, hoping to avoid any issues. Instead of working with us, a website fighting the hog barns was launched. Many similar facilities are in production throughout Darke County, and the planned facility is consistent with best farming practices and Ohio laws. We have raised hogs for many years on our family farms and have never had the first complaint or issue filed against any of our operations. At present, we are reviewing our legal options. My family and I look forward to sharing our story in an upcoming issue of this paper.”

tempt to let her go but was unable to do so. As soon as he did let her go she left the residence and called the police. The victim had a visible injury on her arm. There was noticeable redness that was beginning to bruise. Pollard said nothing physical took place. He was arrested for domestic violence and transported to the Darke County jail. ASSAULT On October 22 police were dispatched to 615 E. Fourth St. regarding a fight. The victim, Chris Hembree, said he was sitting on the front porch of his residence when the suspect, Josh Gillispie, pulled up in front of the house, parked and walked onto the porch. Gillispie accused Hembree of flirting with his girlfriend. Hembree denied it; Gillispie allegedly punched him in the left eye, then turned and left. Hembree had a cut underneath his eye and lost a large amount of blood. He refused to be transported to the hospital by the rescue squad. The officer spoke with Gillispie at the Darke County jail. He admitted punching the victim because he was “messing with his family.” He was charged with assault. On October 23 police responded to a complaint from a father at Greenville High School that his daughter had been punched in the face by another (named) student. The victim provided some details, adding that the problem had been going on for some time and included sexual comments and inappropriate touching. She had a red mark on her face and complained of a headache. The suspect said he was only playing (the punching), kidding (comments) and the touching was accidental. He was cited for assault. On November 1 police responded to an assault complaint at the Police Department. The victim, Brandon Adams, had a bleeding and swollen nose. He refused medical assistance and said he was riding his bicycle to Speedway North when two subjects at a house on East Third Street observed him and called him a *****. They walked toward him; he said he asked their names and if they had been drinking. They refused the names and said they hadn’t been drinking. One allegedly said he was 22, the other 15. The 22-year-old had his fists up and the 15-year-old was recording with his cell phone. They kept trying to get Adams to fight, but he refused. According to the victim, the older one took his bicycle and asked him what he was going to do about it. Adams got around him and got his bike, but as he did so the assailant

punched him in the nose. He did not fight back. He got on his bike and went to the laundry room on East Main Street to wash the blood off his face. He went to Speedway, got his pizza then went back home. After that he went to the Police Station to report the assault. Both subjects were white males. The 22-year-old was about 5’10” tall, short brown hair, average build with tattoos on his arms. He said he was from Dayton. The 15-yearold was about 5’10” with slightly curly hair, slightly overweight and wearing an Ohio State shirt. The officer drove Adams to the area to figure out where the assault took place. The victim pointed out an address that he thought is where the assailants were. Adams was asked again if he wanted medical treatment. This time he said yes and was taken to Wayne HealthCare. WARRANTS On October 30 an operation was set up when it was learned Shane Rayburn would be in the back seat of a dark colored vehicle at a specific location. Rayburn had a misdemeanor warrant for Trespassing from Darke County, a felony warrant for Theft-MV from Preble County and had just been indicted for Aggravated Robbery that day. They observed the defendant and set up a box maneuver at the Traffic Circle. Rayburn was arrested. During the search police found a ziplock bag containing three capsules (that had the appearance of heroin in them), four syringes and a metal spoon. Adams later admitted he was a heroin user. He was charged for Felony Possession of Drugs. On October 29 police conducted a traffic stop for a “less than two headlight” violation. The driver, Michael Stinson, had an active warrant out of Miami County for probation violation on the original charge of assault. He was arrested and transported to the Darke/Miami County line and turned over to Miami County Sheriff’s deputies. BURGLARY On November 1 police responded to 418 E. 4th St. regarding a burglary in progress. Enroute to the address dispatch advised that the suspect, identified as Tyler Boner by the victim, Amanda Vangas, was seen running from the residence, possibly toward East Main Street. Another officer located the suspect in the 500 block of East Main. Vangas and Robbin Edwards said they were in the bedroom when they heard five knocks on the front door and another three knocks on the bedroom window. When no one an-

swered, the front door was allegedly forced open and Boner entered the residence and began yelling at Vangas and Edwards. They saw Boner standing inside the doorway and told him to leave. He refused and Edwards wrestled him to the ﬂoor while Vangas called the police. Boner was able to get away before police arrived. Later, Boner told police he saw on Facebook Vangas was drinking and was worried about her drinking too much. He told police he knocked on the door, then the window, then back to the door. Boner said that was when a male subject opened the door, grabbed him by the arms and slammed him onto the ﬂoor. He said he did not enter the residence. He was arrested and transported to the Darke County jail. VANDALISM On November 1 police were dispatched to 337 E. 3rd St. regarding a vehicle that had allegedly been damaged by John Haberny. A witness said he observed Haberny kick Andy Vititoe’s vehicle and then remove several rubber car tires and begin throwing them into the street while yelling and screaming toward the victim’s residence. Vititoe said he didn’t see Haberny kick the truck but did see him throwing tires into the street. Damage on the Downtown Greenville

truck appeared to be fresh. When police attempted to contact Haberny, he refused to answer the door. Officers could hear him yelling and screaming from his residence. He eventually came out of his residence and was arrested. Haberny told police he threw the tires around the yard and into the street (and offered to pick them up) but denied kicking the vehicle. Darke County jail refused admittance due to a possible hand injury (Haberny stated he struck a few walls inside his house) so the defendant was taken to Wayne HealthCare. He was cleared to be incarcerated and returned to the Darke County jail. On October 22 police were dispatched to 300 N. Gray Ave. regarding a vandalism complaint. The victim, Sue Hahn, advised the previous tenant, Danetta Edens, allegedly spray painted the front porch and broke four of the doors in the house. The officer observed other spray-painted areas as well. The officer also noted a large amount of trash and feces throughout the house. Edens told police she accidently broke a window out of the front door but denied causing the other damage. The report was forwarded to Darke County Prosecutor to consider Felony Vandalism since the damage was not accidental and appeared to be over $1,000.

National Radiologic Technology Week®

(Clinton Randall photo)

Over 4,000 chickens perish in barn fire DARKE COUNTY At least 4,000 chickens, many only a day old, perished after flames destroyed a large two-story barn Thursday night. Multiple local fire departments responded to the fully involved barn fire, which was on the 7000 block of Arcanum Bears Mill Road. The flames could be seen for nearly a mile away as crews arrived on the scene shortly after 9 p.m. The 10,000 square foot barn, that housed the chickens as part of a local family poultry business, burnt to the ground. Crews were able to keep

the flames from reaching either of two 500 gallon propane tanks and the family home that were all nearby. In addition to the barn and chickens, the fire destroyed a feed truck, tractor and other business equipment. Propane heaters used for the newly hatched chicks is a probable cause of the fire, according to the Gettysburg Rural Fire Department. No injuries are reported aside from the loss of the chickens.

over the weekend. Both Fries and Greenville High School Principal Jeff Cassel conducted tours; plus visitors were able to simply walk through the renovated building at their leisure. All areas were open, including some that didn’t exist a year ago. Among the new items is an Advanced Manufacturing lab with equipment, an easily accessible entrance to the high school’s courtyard, ﬁre alarm and security system that includes motion detectors, a larger state of the art kitchen with three serving lines, handicap entrance ramps and rails, lighting and landscaping, interior and exterior door signage, family restroom, teachers lounge… and the list grows. Some of the more notable improvements include a larger cafeteria (seating capacity went from 340 to 560), heating/ventilation/air condition system, new lockers, updated science labs and music rooms and much more. Fries pointed out some of the speciﬁc use areas, such as the Media Lab, the updated Computer Lab, the Pre-K room where Career Tech students teach and care for students who will be in kindergarten the following year and the Virtual

He pointed out the Virtual Academy as an effort by the District to keep GCSD from contributing to that number. It serves students having difﬁculty in certain classes, or did not pass one required course… even those who dropped out and wanted to try again. The Academy is not part of the traditional education environment and would be an attractive alternative to those wanting to complete their education but didn’t do well in the regular classroom. Fries was pleased at the number of citizens

Scarlet Street viewed at Greenville Library GREENVILLE – The Greenville Third Floor Film Series will conclude its 2015 season in November with a screening of the film noir masterpiece Scarlet Street. Directed by Fritz Lang, the film stars Edward G. Robinson and Joan Bennett. German-born director Lang made his name directing films in that country in a style that would come to be known as German Expressionism, most notably the psychological crime thriller M and the silent classic Metropolis. Heavy on mood and featuring fantastical elements and strategic use of light and shadow, the genre would go on to heavily influence the American movies in the film noir genre. As the Nazi party came to power in the 1930s and began to threaten freedom of expression, Lang fled Germany for the United States. It only makes sense he went on to direct some of the best films of the noir genre.

Scarlet Street tells the story of an Everyman character named Christopher Cross (clever, eh?), a bank cashier played by Edward G. Robinson who is as loyal as he is timid. His wife is emotionally abusive and mocks his one creative outlet, his painting, which is amateur in every sense of the word but brings solace to his emotionally restrictive life. When he meets Kitty, a young woman who flirts with Chris and makes him feel alive again, he falls for her. He should know better though, because this is a film noir and Kitty is the ultimate femme fatale. Hearts are broken, reputations are ruined, and lessons are learned too late in this stylish and clever film. Make plans to join them on Thursday, Nov. 18, 7 p.m., as they screen Scarlet Street. Coffee, soft drinks, candy, and popcorn will be available free of charge, and David Nilsen will be leading a brief discussion after the film.

ON YOUR MIND

READERS WRITE Congress gets raise-retirees are moaning about barely getting by so Obama gives don’t?

Big government is at it again! It was a surprise to learn that social security recipients are NOT getting a COLA adjustment. To add insult to injury some are going to pay more for Medicare (for some up to 52-percent more.) Congressional representatives starting salary is $174,000 per year yet on line some

them a $4000 pay raise. It seems to me America needs to wake up and make these representatives “work” for the pay they get and be held accountable for every move they make. The above is just my opinionwhat’s yours? Jim Doss Greenville

Red Cross will teach courses GREENVILLE – Thanksgiving is right around the corner, and there is nothing better than the smiling faces brought together by turkey, dressing and pumpkin pie. Besides the delicious food, though, Thanksgiving is a time time-honored tradition, like football and listening to crazy Uncle Frank’s embarrassing stories of everyone for the 20th time. The problem is, crazy Uncle Frank does not like to stop laughing and telling his stories while eating, which can lead to a deadly combination—choking. If crazy Uncle Frank stops talking and begins to clutch his throat, would you know what to do? The Red Cross may not be able to help the quality of Uncle Frank’s stories, but it can help teach you what to do if someone chokes on a piece of turkey or pumpkin pie—and that’s exactly what it will do during the adult and pediatric ﬁrst aid, CPR and AED course offered in Greenville

on Nov. 10, beginning at 6 p.m. at the Darke County Chapter, 130 Martz St. The course provides hands-on experience in addition to an animated preclass learning component. Rather than the standard “read and take a multiplechoice quiz” formula, the Red Cross took a page from the Xbox and Wii generation and students now use an interactive, animated, virtual learning formula to teach the course basics. The course also results in a two-year Red Cross certiﬁcation and meets OSHA workplace requirements. The price for the course ranges from $55 to $85, depending on how many components to the course are chosen. Advanced registration is required. Signing up is easy—register online at redcross.org/ take-a-class—and then you can rest easy knowing you will be able to help Uncle Frank. To out ﬁnd more information, call 1-800-RED CROSS or visit redcross. org.

Feeding America & OneMain partner GREENVILLE – The Greenville OneMain Financial branch, 1520 Wagner Ave., has partnered with Feeding America, the nation’s leading domestic hunger-relief organization, to hold a food drive with Shared Harvest Food bank as part of its Customer Appreciation Days (CAD). Area residents and customers are encouraged to donate canned goods and nonperishable items to the branch throughout the month of November to ﬁght hunger during the holiday season. “CAD is always a special time in our branch because it’s our chance to show customers we appreciate them and we are proud to be part of this community,” said Torrie Norris branch manager. “This food drive is the perfect way to show our gratitude by giving back

through our partnership with Feeding America. No one should have to worry about having enough food to eat, so we hope the community will join us in making a difference.” Customer Appreciation Days is an annual OneMain Financial tradition in which the company holds special events to recognize its customers. To underscore the company’s commitment to ﬁghting hunger this holiday season, OneMain Financial has donated $25,000 to Feeding America. The contribution will help provide 275,000 meals to foodinsecure kids, families and seniors. At its core, the company is committed to the success of the communities in which it operates. For more information on Feeding America, visit www. feedingamerica.org.

DCRTA will host luncheon GREENVILLE – The Darke County Retired Teachers Association (DCRTA) will host its November luncheon on Nov. 19, 11:30 a.m., in the Brick Room at the Brethren Retirement Community. The menu will be pork tenderloin, corn, new red potatoes, tossed salad, roll, assorted desserts, coffee, water and punch. The cost of the meal is $8.

Following the business meeting, Lois Bunger, local yoga instructor, will present a program on Yoga for All Ages. DCRTA and ORTA dues can also be paid at the luncheon. DCRTA dues are $7 and ORTA dues are $30 per year. To make reservations contact Jean Kelly before Nov. 12 at 692-6248 or mjkelly@woh.rr.com. DCRTA invites anyone to join their association. You do not have to be a retired educator; you just need to have a great interest in and love of education.

Boehner says goodbye after 25 years Today, my heart is full with gratitude to my family, my constituents and my colleagues for giving me the opportunity to serve Ohioans in the 8th District for 25 years. I leave the people’s House as the same person I’ve always been— just a regular guy humbled by the chance to do a big job. This all started as a chase for the American Dream in a small house with a big family in Reading, Ohio. That was where I got my ﬁrst job throwing newspapers, mopped ﬂoors at my father’s bar and learned that Ohioans aren’t afraid to work. I never thought about it as coming up the easy way or the hard way. To me, it was just the Cincinnati way. Our city was named af-

ter the great Roman general, Cincinnatus – a farmer who answered the call of his nation to lead, then surrendered his power and returned to his plow. But for me, it wasn’t a farm. It was a small business. And it wasn’t so much a calling as it was a mission: to strive for a smaller, less costly, and more accountable government. That often meant helping constituents and local officials cut through gridlock and navigate the bureaucratic maze in Washington to get things done. In Hamilton, for instance, I brought together the Army Corps of Engineers and local officials to get the Meldahl Lock and Dam power plant off the ground. In Butler County, I worked with officials at all levels to keep the veterans

highway and Union Centre projects on track. With the Ohio delegation, I made sure that Wright-Patterson Air Force Base and the Springfield Air National Guard Base had the resources they needed to support our men and women in uniform. It also meant listening to the tens of thousands of constituents my office helped through casework, letters, phone calls, my open door program, and of course, my annual Farm Forum. The stories of Ohioans frustrated with the growing scope of government and their desire to secure a better future for our children drove real change in Washington. For the first time in nearly 20 years, we made real entitlement reforms, saving trillions over the long term. We protected 99 percent of

Americans from tax increases. Today, we are on track to save taxpayers $2.1 trillion over the next 10 years, which is the most significant spending reductions in modern history. And, we did it all with no earmarks. I am proud of what we accomplished. None of this would have been possible without the support of my family and the hard work of my staff, which has been first-rate from start to finish. Together, we did the right things for the right reasons and good things happened. It has been an honor. Thank you and God bless this great country.” Note: On October 29th 2015, Congressman John Boehner delivered his farewell address in the Hall of the House.

Ohio House passes Health Care Compact COLUMBUS—The Ohio House of Representatives passed legislation that would give Ohio more freedom and flexibility over its healthcare policies. House Bill 34, sponsored by Rep. Retherford and Rep. Boose, ratifies the Health Care Compact through which Ohio would enter a multi-state contract that would secure more rights to the states for healthcare policy decisions. The measure is a response to rising costs and deficits, as well as the increased federal overreach into health care. If signed into law by Governor Kasich and approved by the US Congress, the Compact allows Ohio to suspend the operation of all federal laws and regulations that are inconsistent with Ohio laws adopted through the Compact. Should Congress approve the Compact, however, it would still be up to the state legislature whether to change Ohio’s healthcare policy, as well as what those specific changes would be. Under the legislation, Ohio would receive fed-

eral funding to support health coverage each fiscal year. The amount of funding would be determined based on the estimated level of federal funding used for health care, which would be updated periodically based on population and inflation. “For years, we have heard the complaints about the ACA. We have also seen attempt after attempt to repeal the ACA, but with no backup plan. Ohio, along with several other states, have taken the lead on finding a suitable replacement to the Federal control of our healthcare system. By returning these dollars to the states, we can start working on state by state reform that will best serve our constituents. I want to thank my colleagues in supporting my efforts to find a solution to our Healthcare crisis. Ohioans are demanding actions, not just words, and today the Ohio House took that step.” 425 Memorial Dr. Greenville, OH 45331

– Retherford said. The Health Care Compact included a set of core principles, inspired by the goals of personal freedom and federalism. The principles include: * The separation of powers, both between the branches of the federal government and between federal and state authority, is essential to the preservation of individual liberty. * The Constitution creates a federal government of limited and enumerated

powers, and reserves to the states or to the people those powers not granted to the federal government. * The member states seek to protect individual liberty and personal control over healthcare decisions, and believe the best method to achieve these ends is by vesting regulatory authority over health care in the states House Bill 34 now goes to the Ohio Senate for further consideration.

The original mission of the preschool was to touch little lives academically and socially and prepare them for kindergarten; however, over the years, the program began to grow and to challenge children socially, emotionally, physically, intellectually, and spiritually. EUM Church held the preschool in the highest regard by offering a quality early childhood education that was affordable and all encompassing. From start to ďŹ nish, an entire theme based day was focused on learning not only academics such as letters, phonics, numbers, counting, sign language, and more, but Biblical truth and life lessons were also taught. During the 38 years the preschool was in existence, students took part in Operation Christmas Child Shoebox project, had pen pals, exchanged letters and colorings to many Veterans, participated in Pizza Hut Book It, gave afghans to a birthing center, made crafts for shut-ins in the church family, Christmas caroled in downtown Greenville, donated to FISH food bank and so much more. The students went on ďŹ eld trips to places such as Brumbaughâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Fruit Farm, Shawnee Prairie, local farms, Idle Hour Ranch, Greenville Public Library, Greenville Fire Department, and ďŹ eld day at South Park. EUM Church is grateful for the community support given to EUM Christian Preschool for the past 38 years. Without this support, the preschool could not have had such a lasting impact or inďŹ&#x201A;uenced over a thousand students and families.

Get Your Affairs in Order for an Orderly Estate You may be quite willing to plan an investment strategy for your retirement years. After all, it can be enjoyable to think about traveling the world, pursuing your hobbies or participating in any of the activities you’ve associated with an active retirement. However, once you do retire, you’ll need to “shift gears” somewhat to focus on your legacy. Specifically, to protect your loved ones and ensure your intentions are clear and carried out, you’ll need to do some more planning – and you’ll need to share your thoughts with your family. Here are some moves to consider: List your assets and debts. Your family needs to be aware of your assets and debts, so share this information with them while you are alive and well. Create a durable power of attorney. Give a trusted friend or family member a durable power of attorney to pay bills and make financial choices on your behalf if you are unable to do so. Choose an executor. An executor is the person or entity you name in your will to carry out your wishes. An executor has a variety of responsibilities, so pick someone who is honest and capable of dealing with legal and financial matters. Talk with an attorney about how best to name your executor. Update your will. You might have written a will many years ago, but, over time, many aspects of your life may have changed. Review your will with your attorney to ensure it reflects your current wishes. Review benefits of a living trust. A simple will may not be enough to accommodate your

estate-planning needs. You might want to consider establishing a living trust, which provides you with significant flexibility in distributing your assets and can help you avoid the time-consuming, expensive and public process of probate. To create a trust or other estate-planning documents, you will need to work with a qualified legal professional. Review your beneficiary designations. The beneficiary designations on your financial accounts (401(k), IRA, etc.) and your insurance policies can even supersede the directions on your will, so it’s essential that you update these designations to reflect events such as divorce and remarriage. And make sure your beneficiaries have the facts they need to claim their benefits. Share location of your legal documents. Your loved ones should know where you keep documents such as your birth certificate, will and living trust. If you keep these items in a safe deposit box, tell your family where you keep the key. Encourage two-way communication. It’s obviously necessary to communicate your final wishes to your family members – but listen to their wishes and concerns, too. For example, ask your children to agree on who gets those objects of special concern to them, such as furniture, mementos and heirlooms. As you can see, you’ll need to take several steps to fulfill your intentions – and the above list is certainly not exhaustive. So plan carefully, engage the appropriate team – financial advisor, attorney, tax professional – and put your plans in motion. By being proactive, you can greatly ease the burden on your loved ones in the future.

trophy case by the slimmest of margins… but it was the Wave football team leaving it all on the field in a 1312 GWOC North win over the visiting Sidney Yellow Jackets. “The kids left it all out on the field,” said Greenville Coach Aaron Shaffer. “They played every second of the game to the very end.” The Jackets put its 6-3 record up against the Wave’s 3-6 record on senior night at Harmon Field in the Treaty City. Greenville used 13-plays and 5:43 on the game clock to complete a 60-yard scoring drive with senior Codi Byrd carrying up the middle for a 2-yard touchdown run giving the home team a 6-0 lead at 3:45 in the first. A Jordan Ernst PAT kick made it a 7-0 lead. Big plays on the drive came from a 13-yard pass from Clay Guillozet to Justin Brown and a 13-yard Guillozet scramble. Sidney would get on the second quarter board with a TD through the air and a failed PAT kick attempt sending the teams to the break with the Wave holding a 7-6 advantage. On hand for the final game of the season was Greenville alum Matt Light to present a Gold football to the Greenville High School celebrating the 50th year of Super Bowl. Light also presented the “Friends of Harmon Field” a $10.000.00 check from The Bill Belichick Foundation. The Yellow Jackets would take a 12-7 third quarter lead with a 13-play 90-yard touchdown drive. Greenville’s defense held as the Jackets 2-point conversion attempt failed. A 20-yard touchdown pass from Guillozet to Bradley Mead with 9:53 on the fourth quarter clock proved to be all the points needed for a Green Wave season ending win. The Wave’s 2-point conversion attempt failed making for a final 13-12 score. “I am so happy for our seniors to get a win on senior night and their final game,” said Shaffer. “Some of the guys will go on to play college ball. It’s a bitter sweet night. I have had this group of seniors for four-years.” Senior quarterback Clay Guillozet ends his Green Wave career with 3,951 total passing yards. With the win the Greenville is home to the “Jug” for the third consecutive year.

TIPP CITY – The Versailles Lady Tigers volleyball teamed earned a spot in the Sweet 16 Division III OHSAA tournament with a convincing 3-0 win over the Reading Lady Blue Devils in an 11:00 a.m. Saturday contest. “Attacking from all sides,” said Versailles Coach Karla Frilling of her teams play on the day. “That’s the nature of our offense. We got the athletes to do it. We’re going to get everybody involved.” Reading put an 18-7 record on the line against the Lady Tigers’ 13-10 record, but it was a tough 2015 MAC schedule that played to the Versailles girl’s favor on the day. Versailles jumped out to a 7-2 game one lead bringing a timeout from the Reading bench. The Blue Devils would get even at 10-10 only to have the Lady Tigers move out to a 19-14 advantage. Reading would rebound to score six-unanswered points and take a 20-19 game one lead. “We just needed to get our feet wet a little bit,” Frilling said of her team’s sluggish start. “We were moving along once we

did.” The Lady Tigers battled back to put six points on the board while limiting the girls from the Cincinnati area to one point to win set No. 1 by a 25-21 score. “When you have a team that comes back and goes ahead and then you still manage to finish it in the end, that’s frustrating (for losing team),” Filling said. “We’ve been on that side before so we just kept that going… we knew we weren’t going to look back at that point.” Versailles would find their stride and take the second set by a lopsided 25-8 score as Blue Devils could not find an answer for the Lady Tigers aggressive play. “The momentum from that first game we just carried it over into the second game and just didn’t look back,” said Frilling. “I think we did take a little wind out of their sails and that played in our favor.” Reading would open game three with a 1-0 lead but quickly was looking at an 8-2 deficit bringing one of many Blue Devil timeouts on the day. Back-to-back Reading points made it an 8-4 score followed by four consecutive Tigers points for a 12-4 Versailles lead. With the Lady Tigers con-

ﬁdence building the game was not in doubt as Versailles cruised to a 25-16 Southwest District Championship win. “We didn’t in any way want the girls to get the impression that we could slow down and not run our tempo,” stated Frilling. “We’re moving along… we’re moving towards that peak… we’re not there yet,” Frilling said. “We don’t want to be there yet. I think we are improving at the right time.” Versailles season came

to an end on Wednesday when the faced Newark Catholic at Trent Arena, in Kettering. Versailles was able to capture the ﬁrst game 25-16 before losing the next three, 2520, 25-22 and 25-22. The 2015 Cross County Conference (CCC) Champion Miami East Lady Vikings got past Anna Lady Rockets and are headed to the Regional Finals. Miami East was able to take three straight from Anna with scores of 25-17, 2514 and 25-18.

Footballs: A look at Friday night high school protocol BY GAYLEN BLOSSER SPORTS WRITER gblosser@earlybirdpaper.com

GREENVILLE – The Greenville football team has four regulation footballs ready for game night whether home or away. “Four footballs,” said Greenville football coach Aaron Shaffer. “As long as it’s a dry night its four you can check. The ofﬁcials check the regulation… basically just check for poundage.” High School protocol is similar to college and the NFL as footballs are checked prior to each game Coach Shaffer chooses the football manufacture and model the Green Wave will use for the season. “I pick the brand that we use,” said Shaffer. “We choose the ball that is endorsed by the OHSAA in their playoff format. Generally everybody uses the

condition our football to get it to the texture that we like. As the week wears on it gets in better shape.” The team kicking off uses one of its footballs causing the receiving team

to handle the opponent’s football. There are stories of opposing teams using old, smooth and somewhat slick footballs on kickoffs making it easier for the receiving team to fumble the ball. “It’s a common practice that teams don’t kick their game balls… the ones that you are actually playing the other part of the game,” said Shaffer. “The balls tend to be a little softer even though the air pressure is the same. Usually on a dry night the teams will check in a ‘quote unquote’ kicking ball.” With the many balls both teams bring to the ﬁeld, it does not tend to create a problem for the ofﬁcials to put the approved ball in play. “We mark our footballs,” Shaffer said. “We have a branding iron that has GHS.

Ball boys must be alert to get his team’s football to a waiting official. A nice throw from the ball boy is appreciated by the official. In reverse, a ball boy must be ready to catch the team’s football when a change is required. “If you get a wet night their job goes through the roof,” said Shaffer. “The condition of the ball aside from making sure the officials have what they need in terms of the ball in and out, like after kickoffs and things like that.

INDIANAPOLIS – The Union City Community High School varsity cheerleaders placed 4th overall at a state-wide competition Saturday at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis. UCCHS competed against 14 squads from around the state. After placing 4th in the ﬁrst round, the Indians advanced to the ﬁnals held Saturday evening… where they placed 4th again. “This competition season has been best we have ever had… from winning the state fair and now 4th at state,” said a proud UC Cheer Coach Heather Jefferis. “The girls have worked extremely hard all summer and fall. We have had countless hours of practice,” Coach Jefferis added. “I’m so extremely proud of the girls and their dedication!” The squad most recently topped the competition at the Indiana State Fair in August and took 2nd place at the Clinton County Fair in July. “Congratulations to our Lady Indians and a big shout out to Coach Jefferis and Coach Brad-

Greenville City Park successfully moves peafowl GAYLEN BLOSSER

SPORTS WRITER gblosser@earlybirdpaper.com

GREENVILLE – The Greenville City park employees and the City Street Department employees took advantage of a 77-degree Wednesday afternoon to move the Peafowl into their new home located in the Greenville City Park. “I would like to thank all the donors and especially Ryan Carpe for spearheading this project and to Kathy Warvel our volunteer Peafowl caretaker for making this a reality,” stated Greenville Park Board President Dale Musser. “It was a big undertaking,” said Greenville City Park Manager Deb Berger. “None of it could have happened unless we had donations. All of this is through donations… so we thank the community.” City employees constructed a temporary covered walkway from the old Peafowl building to the new living quarters and fenced in area for moving. “Better than I expected,” said Warvel of the move. “I knew they would be scared. These guys did a great job setting it all and getting them in here. It will take them a little while to adapt and to realize they can go inside. It’s a great facility and look how much room they have. It’s twice as big.” “Luckily we were able to move them while their feathers were short,” added Warvel. “They didn’t get hurt. They are a little scared right now but they’re going to be ﬁne.” The new facility allows for park visitors to get a better view of the many brightly colored fowl. “We faced it east because most of the trafﬁc from the park comes from this way,” Berger said.

“People coming to the park realize they’re here and they are more visual in this area.” “Thanks to everyone, especially Ryan Carpe the committee chairman,” said Berger. “Ryan headed this – so thank you Ryan.” “Wouldn’t have been able to do it without the fantastic teamwork and good heartedness of the Greenville community and its administrators,” said Carpe. Carpe, a local businessman stated, “Just enjoy the park… big fan of the Greenville City Parks and one of the greatest things we have about this community.” “I just took a look at our facilities and it wasn’t so much that I’m huge into the peacocks, more so that these animals deserve some solid upgrades and newer facilities. That’s going to translate into a better experience for all the citywide park goers. More just kind of creating some new upgrades and doing some better things for the park goers.” “It’s going to be a lot easier,” continued Carpe. “We’re going to try and repurpose some walkways and we’re also in the process of installing some signs that will be educational about where they come from and what kind of animals peacocks are. We should be installing that within the next week.” “There is going to be a plaque that honors everybody who donated to the project,” stated Carpe. “We couldn’t have done it without the Coppock-Hole Trust, without the Brown Family and without the benefactors of the Greenville City. Just a lot of people put together for this project… just really proud of it.”

LUNCH SERVED EVERY THURSDAY

GREENVILLE – The Oct. 31 Mock Rock & Talent Show held by the Greenville VFW Post 7261 offered an opportunity to learn about the local VFW’s plans for the Veteran’s Memorial Park and Digital Library. It also offered an opportunity for some humor, great entertainment and acknowledgments for the hard work of many. Seven talented individuals and groups vied for the $1,000 prize in three categories: Most Original Act, People’s Choice and Best Overall Show. Donna Keys walked away with the Most Original Act with her rendition of “Be Good to Mama” from the hit movie musical, Chicago. People’s Choice went to 13-year-old Daphne Keys for her guitar and vocals performance. The Best Overall Show was captured by 17-year-old Taylor Bowers who belted out the inspirational favorite, “How Great Thou Art.” Emcee Rob Jones, Dayton Funeral Director (and

part-time comedian) with ties to Greenville, introduced the entertainment. Michael Maloney, Vice Chairman of the Memorial Park and Digital Library committee, handled much of the honors. He talked about the vision of the committee in preserving the stories of Greenville veterans and the hope this would expand to include veterans organizations, high schools and colleges throughout Ohio. “We all came together,” Maloney told the approximately 100 people present. “We got together and we did this! That makes it successful.” Maloney acknowledged the judges: Early Bird Publisher Keith Foutz and wife Peggy, Dave Boltin, Jack Harless, Robert Giannone, Tracy Onoz and Doug Black. Giannone is the Ohio Junior VFW Vice Commander; Harless was introduced as the Chairman of the Memorial Park and Digital Library. “You have been the chairman since the beginning,” Maloney told Harless. “You are still the chairman to-

day.” He also acknowledged the help of Greenville Career Tech’s IMTV. The VFW Citizen of the Year, presented by Don Dietrich, went to former VFW Auxiliary President Gail Snyder. Maloney explained the concept behind the Mock Rock portion of the evening. “This is where you lip sync with your favorite artists,” he said. “Anyone remember that?” He then introduced the Greenville Alumni Mock Rock Reunion Show by Dennis Young, Mark Rich, David

Taylor Bowers took the honors for Best Overall Show. (Bob Robinson photo)

AHS Band is ready for state competition GAYLEN BLOSSER

SPORTS WRITER gblosser@earlybirdpaper.com

ARCANUM – The Arcanum High School marching band under the leadership of band director Doug Albright and Field Commander Shelby Horzsa has earned the right to perform at the State Band Marching Finals at Dayton’s Welcome Stadium Nov. 8, with a 5 p.m. show-time. The seasoned Albright in his 29th year at the helm of the Arcanum band program, grades 5-12, is pleased with the success of his 2015 High School Marching Band. “It’s been a nice group this year,” said Albright. “I think some of them went home over the summer and worked to get a little better and maybe came back a little stronger than when they left. That’s a little bit unusual sometimes… to get people to take that initiative. That has helped us out.” “We have a mature group,” Albright added. “We have a big class of seniors and sophomores, both smaller classes in juniors and freshman.” “We are all excited,” said senior trombonist Mitchell Sink. “It’s our ﬁrst time (seniors) going to state for marching band. We are all

2015 Arcanum High School Marching Band

really happy about it.” The 45-member marching band that includes brass, woodwind and percussion will be traveling by bus for the school’s first trip to the State Band finals since 2010. The Trojans competed at Piqua recently qualifying with a superior rating to advance to state finals where the judging will be a little more demanding. “They are looking for a higher level of performance at that state level than they are at qualifying contests,” stated Albright. “At state level they usually judge us a little harder. I think it takes a little better performance to get a superior rating (#1 rating)… a little higher bar at the state

level.” “It has helped our group to have good leaders,” Albright continued. “Our ﬁeld commander, Shelby Horzsa is a good leader for our group… positive and helpful. We have individual leaders in each section that are good leaders who listen for things. They pretty well know the standard that we are trying to apply. They listen for that and help out on the ﬁeld also.” “I lead the band. I conduct them, help them keep tempo and pace,” shared Horzsa of her role as Field Commander. “Knowing when to step off, when to mark time and hold. I just try to help them stay positive through the whole thing… just not lose focus

on what we are supposed to be doing” A conﬁdent Horzsa is excited of the opportunity for the Arcanum Band she leads to compete at the State level. “I am pretty much ready for it,” said Horzsa. “I think it will be good. It will be a lot of fun. We are all excited and I’m more excited than anything.” The community is invited to the Arcanum High School for a 2 p.m. send-off for the state-bound band. “We’re a strong playing group… that’s our strength,” concluded Albright. “I generally don’t tell them they are playing well until they are really playing well… and they are playing well.”

Learning leaves with DCP’s Park P.A.L.S. GREEENVILLE – The Darke County Park District Naturalist Hannah Linebaugh invites children in kindergarten through second grade to join her on Nov. 14, 9:30 a.m. to noon, to learn about the leaves and trees in Darke County with the Park P.A.L.S. program. Park P.A.L.S. is a series of monthly programs designed for students of this age group who are interested in nature. P.A.L.S. stands for Practicing And Learning Stewardship, and its mission is to develop future earth stewards through meaningful educational opportunities and hands-on experiences in the natural world. This month everyone will meet at the Nature Center

on St. Rt. 502 west of Greenville to explore. Children will learn about the difference between conifer and broadleaf trees, a few basic leaf types and shapes, and play a game to help remember. Then everyone will head outside to see what types of leaves are still on the trees or on the ground to discover. The class will conclude with a fun and colorful project with leaves found along the way. A fee of $3 is charged for the program, and preregistration is required. For any questions about the Park P.A.L.S. program or any other Park District programs or to register for the November class, call the Nature Center at 5480165.

It meant a lot to me, because it was the message that tugged at my heart the night I gave my heart to the Lord.

This message is repeated in so many songs.” One of the greatest ministry opportunities to come Ivan’s way is being a part of most of the Gaither Homecoming Videos and singing in 70 to 80 Gaither Concerts a year, which average around 15,000 attendees each, in addition to his own solo schedule. In all, his calendar shows an average of 200 performances a year. One of the highlights of his ministry in 2002 was

when he stepped on stage at Carnegie Hall and sang not “On the wings of a snow white dove” but “God Bless the USA.” Ivan and his wife Teresa reside in Nashville, Tennessee. They own Parker Music Group which not only represents Ivan Parker but Teresa is a booking agent representing several other artists from the Gaither Homecoming Tour. They have two sons, Ryan and Josh.
